Chapter 150: Against the Nuggets
On January 7, U.S. time, the Hornets challenged the Denver Nuggets away. Anthony left the Knicks, along with Billups, the civilian leader. Like the Hornets, the Nuggets have the strength to make the playoffs even without a star in the game, rookie point guard Tylawson played well, and with players such as Welsh Chandler and Nene in mind, the Nuggets are not considered underdogs.
And the duel between Tylawson and Wang Meng in this game is also one of the biggest highlights of this game.
Lawson, who was the home station, put down his cruel words in front of the media early, "Wang Meng is just an overrated player, his level is not as high as imagined, it is a complete coincidence that he was able to win the MVP in the finals, this MVP should be Kobe's, but Kobe Bryant was injured, allowing him to steal a championship ring." As for Kobe Bryant's injury and leading the Lakers to victory over the Heat, it is even more ridiculous, if I have Artest, Odom, Gasol, Bydam and other players around me, I can also win. ”
Regarding Lawson's provocation, Wang Meng was very low-key.
"Whoever is stronger, just watch this game."
Wang Meng, who has just gained new skills, is particularly confident, and he is not afraid of Lawson, who can only break through and shoot half-baked. And this game is also a battle for Wang Meng's name, and he will definitely go all out.
At the beginning of the game, Okafor and Nene's jump ball still ended with Okafor winning, Wang Meng received the ball and ran across the half court, Lawson immediately ran over, and at the same time spewed trash words on his mouth, "Hey, boy, do you dare to dribble in front of me?" My grandma is better at dribbling than you, so you better go home and practice hard. ”
Wang Meng chose to ignore Lawson's words, he didn't have much effort to fight Lawson now, and he couldn't wait to try new skills.
"Heart's Eye." Wang Meng thought silently in his heart, and suddenly the floor plan of the entire stadium appeared in Wang Meng's mind, and ten players, including him, kept running on the court, which was very wonderful, but Wang Meng did not feel unaccustomed or uncomfortable.
"Here!" Although it only lasted for a short period of 3 seconds, it was enough for Wang Meng, and he didn't even need to make much judgment, Wang Meng pushed the basketball out with both hands.
The basketball passed through Tylawson's waist and bounced off the ground, just right through Kenyon Martin's crotch and directly into Gasol's hands.
This ball made Gasol stunned for a moment, but after all, he was an old ruffian who had played for more than ten years, even if his brain couldn't react, his body subconsciously gave away the basketball in his hand.
The Spaniard's soft touch against the sky allowed the ball to fall gently into the net.
"Well passed." Gasol and Wang clapped their hands together, and the ball was a beautiful pass.
You know, basketball is a game of 5 people, and there is only one person in possession of the ball, and the other four people may often create opportunities for vacant positions at any time, but it is difficult for the person in possession of the ball to find out at the first time, maybe the time he found is only one second slower, but just this second, the opponent's defender is likely to have been stared at again.
Wang Meng, who has a heart and an eye, can see the entire stadium, and there can be no players he can't see, not only that, but he can also observe a passing route that the opponent is not good at stealing, making the assist more effective with half the effort.
Lawson didn't care about this ball, he just broke through Wang Meng, Wang Meng passed, and he won by pushing him, because in his opinion, Wang Meng's defensive pass in the face of him was a kind of concession, and Wang Meng was afraid.
Switching to the Nuggets offense, Lawson is ready to go it alone, and he wants to beat Wang Meng to let people know who is stronger.
In front of Wang Meng's defense, Lawson dribbled the ball twice, and then the basketball was exchanged from the left hand to the right hand, and the center of gravity of the body was lowered, and Wang Meng's defense broke through.
Wang Meng did not resist hard, but let Lawson break through to the inside, and at the same time raised his hand to signal Okaforga Sol not to make up the defense.
Lawson glanced at it and found that there was no one to make up for it, and he was immediately happy and more at ease. Lawson suddenly accelerated further, and directly left Wang Meng, who was following the defense, behind, looking at the empty inside line, Lawson's mind suddenly became hot, and he wanted to dunk.
Lawson doesn't dunk much, he is about 185 tall and has average jumping, usually relies on layups to score, and can only dunk when he is fast-breaking.
Just do it when you think of it, Wang Meng has been thrown far away by him, there is no need to scruple at all, everyone else is very far away from him, and no one will interfere with this dunk! Lawson took two steps with the basketball in his arms, then jumped hard, using all his strength with both hands, to end the offense with a violent dunk.
Flying in mid-air, Lawson felt as if he had heard the cheers of the home fans, and the wonderful feeling brought a smile to his face.
"Be careful!" The shouts of his teammates on the sidelines made him a little overwhelmed.
"Careful? Be careful of what? Lawson's body was in mid-air, and he couldn't react at all.
But there was no need to react, a hand suddenly appeared behind him, and slammed the basketball in his hands out, and the basketball bounced back on the rebound, and was fished out by this hand again.
Lawson, with his empty hands, hung on the basket, and he could only barely turn back and see Wang Meng's back with the ball and fast attacking.
Since the instantaneous burst of physical consumption has decreased, Wang Meng will naturally not be polite, he doesn't care what you Lawson thinks, he dares to pretend to dunk, this is purely to find a cover, although the power of the instant explosion has been reduced, but when it is opened, Wang Meng's outburst is still very terrifying, plus his original speed wants to catch up with Lawson who is trying to dunk in vain.
Because Lawson and Wang Meng were playing alone just now, the other Nuggets players were all pulled on the outside, and Wang Meng's hat came too suddenly, so he couldn't react at all, resulting in other players not reacting at all, and Wang Meng was already dribbling and attacking.
Chandler, who has the fastest defense, is also nearly a meter away from Wang Meng, and he can't catch up with Wang Meng, Wang Meng's dribbling speed is very fast, and Chandler can only catch up little by little.
The two chased each other and ran under the basket.
Wang Meng jumped in two and a half steps, preparing to dunk in the air.
Chandler jumped up after Wang Meng's pace, trying to give him a sturdy cap.
Wang Meng is not Lawson, he doesn't pay attention to his back, he is in the air, and the hands that were originally dunked protect the basketball in front of his stomach.
Wang Meng's stay in the air was very good, there was an obvious pause in the air, Chandler behind him couldn't dodge, and slammed into Wang Meng, and the whistle sounded immediately.
This is not over, Wang Meng used the last bit of strength, according to the position in his memory, and threw the basketball in his hand with one hand.
The spinning basketball grazed the rebound and rolled into the basket.
Wang Meng, who lost his balance, fell to the ground and screamed loudly, obviously this was not the cry of pain from his fall.
