Chapter 254: Not Threatening Enough

Brook Lopez is mired in self-doubt, which is undoubtedly huge positive news for the Knicks.

Originally, the Nets didn't have anything powerful, but now they have damaged themselves and become a lame duck.

This flaw in the lineup was quickly revealed in the battle situation.

When the Nets returned to the court, the situation suddenly became stiff. Originally, the Nets' tactical system was extremely simple, although Coach Frank has been boasting about his so-called DDP tactics, but in fact, it is extremely unsatisfactory in terms of play.

Devin Harris's breakthrough was desperately restrained by Marbury, and Vince Carter didn't look so calm under the slick defense. After all, Vince Carter is now past his prime, and although he still averages close to 20 points per game, this number is based more on his shooting prowess than on his breakthrough ability.

Soon the Nets' offense was in vain.

Milicic protected the defensive rebound and then threw it off to Dash. While throwing the basketball to Xiao Shao, he was still chanting words: "Listen, as long as I get serious, I won't be afraid of anyone!" ”

Milichić is quite a stinky fart.

Although he did play well tonight, he hasn't reached this point yet, right?

But in retrospect, it's always better to stink than to squander his talents.

At least he was never so 'arrogant' during his time with the Pistons, and never so 'arrogant' during his time with the Grizzlies. The reason why he says this is also based on the fact that he is in a good mood, and he seems to have found the joy he once had in basketball.

However, Xiao Shi still stimulated him with indifferent words: "Does a backcourt rebound make you start to feel invincible in the world?" Do you feel like you're the No. 1 center in the NBA right now? Tomorrow we're going to Houston. I hope you can be as rampant as you are now when facing Yao Ming!! ”

The chic mouth is not merciless at all.

Trash-talk squirting is brilliant.

Milicic shrugged his shoulders. muttered, "I'll play to my own advantage, too!" ”

One mentioned Yao Ming. He still lacks confidence.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Xiao didn't say much, turned around and handed the basketball to Stephen Marbury, and then slowly advanced to the front court.

For the occasional argument between Xiao and Milicic on the court, the spectators on the sidelines watched very strangely. They were very surprised, it seemed to them that Milicic had played much better than expected, why did Xiao still stimulate him so much? Or even spew trash talk at him? Is their relationship really that bad? However, it seems that their cooperation is quite good!

The spectators were strange.

They also didn't know exactly what the relationship between Xiao and Milicic was. Let's say it's right, they will always have a connection to cooperate, Milicic basically passed to Xiao Sa as soon as he grabbed the rebound, and he would also block and dismantle Xiao Sa, and Xiao Sa could also judge the landing point of his block at the first time. But if they are close partners, they always quarrel on the court and even spit trash talk on each other.

Xiao Xiao didn't know how to explain this, anyway, in his opinion, this was the most suitable way for him to get along with Milicic.

Because he found that only when he constantly stimulated this guy, this guy would burst out with energy.

Milicic belongs to that kind of donkey character. You don't pump him, he can walk you backwards. Only to smoke him away. He can play to his abilities.

As far as Xiao is concerned, as long as Milicic can play well, he doesn't mind smoking like this.

It's just that Xiao Xiao still hasn't figured out one thing, that is, Milicic is a person who just listens to him and smokes alone, and Rally Brown often smokes him like this before, and often stimulates him and even sarcastically mocks him, but the result is that he is sluggish, and he doesn't even want to go to the training gym.

Sometimes, things are just so wonderful. One thing to one thing, Rally Brown achieved very different results in the same way, but Xiao Xiao managed him obediently.

But when I think about it, it makes sense. Although Rally Brown is a very good legendary coach, his playing ability can't suppress Milicic, and his ability to pick up girls can't make Milicic throw himself to the ground. In this case, it is strange that Milicic can grow according to his ideas.

Back in the half, Stephen Marbury methodically combed the half-court offense, waited for the team to show up for the opportunity, and quickly gave the pass, without the slightest sticky ball. And soon, Jeffries gave Marbury an assist with a goal.

Since Marbury's arrival, he has been subtracting himself from the crowd and reducing a lot of unnecessary sticky balls. And he has also done a lot of addition and even multiplication on defense, and his defensive focus is almost the strongest since he joined the NBA.

Marbury had such a reborn appearance, but D'Antoni still didn't like it.

In his preconceived impression, Marbury was a thorn in the pan and a locker room bomb.

He didn't want to try to get to know Marbury, he only thought about how to get Marbury away.

But now Xiao Shaw trusts Marbury so much that he can't do it.

He's not the kind of manager who is good at intrigue, and the biggest difference between him and Dunleavy is that even if he's uncomfortable, he won't do anything hurtful, so he just sits there sulking.

And unlike D'Antoni's harmless people and animals, ESPN is carrying out a massive attack on Xiao Xiao.

"Xiao is really a bit too much, he has been attacking Milicic all the time. Didn't he know that Milicic was very sensitive? Milicic was a genius who could have become a superstar, but it was because of the blow and excitement of Rally Brown that he became like this. Now, he finally showed something different, and Xiao began to oppress him. Was he afraid that Shaw would take his place on the team? What a selfish guy! "The ESPN host has been chattering a lot, in fact from the moment Milicic picked up the rebound, he has been talking about it, he didn't even explain the footage on the court, and Jeffries's goal was also carried by him.

"Milicic can play the results that everyone expected from him back then. Then it will be a huge asset for the Knicks. How could Xiao accuse him on the court? As a leader player and the core of the rebuild. He should have taken Milicic seriously. Even if you don't encourage him, you shouldn't trash talk to him! Jeff Van Gundy was also full of incomprehension.

The two sang and harmonized, but Reggie Miller did not make a sound, because he had other ideas. That is, he felt that maybe Xiao Sao had figured out Guò's way to get Milicic back on track faster. It's just that this kind of praise can't be broadcast on the ESPN platform, so he simply won't make an evaluation.

Meanwhile, the Nets are still struggling with a hard time, and they're desperate to play a good offense. But now the Knicks' defensive intensity is relatively strong. Although against a strong team, this kind of defense that relies on individual talent may not be very effective. But against a team like the Nets, it's really not too easy.

The Nets struggled, so they missed the shot again.

Milicic roared again to pick up the rebound.

Then he continued to pass to Xiao and shouted, "Tonight I'm going to take twenty plus ten counts!" ”

"Twenty missed shots and 10 turnovers?" Xiao glanced at him, still complaining.

"It's 20 points and 10 rebounds!!" Milicic corrected loudly.

"Wow!" Xiao Chuan dragged a long voice and deliberately said: "What a great number." But do you think it makes sense to cut such a number on this kind of team? Soon it's garbage time. ”

"......" Milicic choked on again, and he whispered, "Meaningful!!" ”

Xiao Xiao's ears were pointed, and he heard the voice.

Although he had been motivating Milicic verbally, he still wanted to help this guy in his heart.

So, after getting to the front court. He ran quickly. The Nets' defense wasn't good in the first place, under the dashing frantic running. Immediately become more penetrating. At this time, Stephen Marbury saw the opportunity, quickly made a direct pass, and handed the ball to Milicic on the inside, Milicic received the basketball, and the defense around him had been swept away. All he had to do was turn around slightly, and then slam the buckle.

And that's exactly what he did.

Rumble!

The basketball was smashed into the hoop by him.

Then the scene resounded with shocking cheers.

New York fans are undoubtedly happy at this moment, and now the Knicks feel like a playoff-caliber powerhouse. The Nets, who had previously abused New York, were like an incompetent NBDL team that was left to its own slaughter. It's a great feeling.

And Marbury and Milicich's cousin Xiàn gave them the biggest surprise, they didn't expect that with the arrival of Xiao, everything about the Knicks began to be wonderful. Marbury has become less sticky, more selfless in his distribution of players and aggressive defensively. And Milicic, who has always been called one of the league's biggest parallel goods, has also shone as a first-class center after coming to New York, and even had a bit of dominance in tonight's game.

The chemistry is just wonderful. It's so wonderful that many fans are starting to look forward to the playoffs.

And before that, when Xiao said his goal was the playoffs, the vast majority of them thought it was just a goal, a goal that probably wouldn't be achieved.

But now, they have to save up in advance, because tickets to the playoffs are quite expensive.

Drip!

Seeing the pace of the game so easily controlled by the Knicks, Nets head coach Frank finally asked for a timeout. Even if there are only forty seconds left until the end of the first quarter.

But will such a pause of his be useful?

At least in the eyes of Xiao Shao, it is in vain.

Because the Nets are not enough to threaten the current Knicks, both technically and tactically and in terms of team lineups.

Back to the bench.

D'Antoni hurriedly walked over with the tactical board, and he quickly did what the manager should do, which was to make personnel adjustments: "Wilt, Chris, Gallinani, you three come on and replace ...... Milicic, Stephen Marbury, and Jeffries. Then we used these 40 seconds to run quickly and we wanted to extend the lead to 15 points!! ”

D'Antoni reverted his team's tactics to running and bombing, and replaced him with his descendants.

For this tactic. Xiao Shi frowned. Some of him wasn't particularly pleasant.

And Stephen Marbury and Milicic next to him felt even more uncomfortable. The affection on their faces was clearly dissatisfied.

In their opinion, they are so good on the court, and they are still pressing the Nets to play, why should they replace themselves for no reason? If this continues, the Nets will definitely go into garbage time early, and even before the end of the second quarter, they will announce their surrender.

Xiao Sao saw the love on the faces of these two people.

At this time, he did not take the lead in the rebellion. He chose to respect the head coach's authority and patted both on the shoulder. As a sign of relief.

Under the chic comfort, the two didn't say anything, just sat aside unhappily.

This scene fell into D'Antoni's eyes, which made him even more unhappy, and he felt that these two men were blatantly embarrassing themselves and blatantly trying to challenge the authority of the manager.

As a result, the estrangement deepened.

Soon, the whistle blew and the game continued.

While the Knicks made personnel adjustments, the Nets also completed personnel changes. Vince Carter was replaced by Kenyan Durin, and Brooke Lopez was also replaced by Josh Boone.

When the referee blows the whistle. Immediately after re-serving, the Nets were running quickly.

At the same time, they quickly completed the attack. Devin Harris broke through Chris Dujon's defense, rushed into the box to attract the pack, and decisively passed the ball to the ambushed Bobby Simmons, who received the ball and threw it ...... Swish!

A wonderful three-point finish.

At this time, Gallinani, who was defending him, was still clearly confused, and he had not even found a defender.

Such a clumsy defense made Xiao Dash very angry, and he yelled directly at Garinani on the court: "Don't you have any shame in yourself for this kind of defense that is not even as good as kindergarten?" Learn from Milicic, he's also European, his defense is much more reliable than yours!! ”

The chic tone was very impulsive, and he didn't give much face to this rookie of the same class.

Garinani bowed his head under the dashing reprimand, and remained silent.

D'Antoni, who was on the sidelines, heard the chic reprimand, and he didn't say anything. But he felt that he had no face, because Garinnani was the rookie he chose over the crowd, but this rookie's appearance was indeed a little unsatisfactory, except for the three-point shooting, the rest of the aspects were not satisfactory.

But at this time, Milicic was a little proud. Because Xiao Shi praised himself while teaching Garinani a lesson, he was proud and even subconsciously cocked Erlang's legs, and he thought proudly in his heart: "Hmph, I know that no matter how hard you hit me, you still can't help but praise me, after all, the light of genius cannot be blocked." ”

Milicic's smugness was seen by Stephen Marbury next to him, and he was a little puzzled and a little surprised at the same time. Because in his impression, Milicic was very dull before, and even had some inferiority, and he was also confused on the court. However, now this guy is a little exaggerated, not only boasting on the court, but also such a stinky fart off the court.

What the hell is going on? Driven crazy by chic?

Stephen Marbury didn't know that things must be reversed, and Milicic suppressed it for a long time, and after being released by the screeching stimulus, he quickly became a stinky fart and got carried away. Although the two are very different, both are real Milicić.

At the same time, Xiao Sao hit a tiptoe shot in the frontcourt, and the Nets had no resistance to it.

However, soon the Nets finished attacking again.

This time it's Garinnani who leaks people!

Bobby Simmons went straight through his defense and burst into the box to complete an easy layup.

Xiao Po was very angry, if it weren't for the fact that there were only 25 seconds left in the game, he would definitely throw this guy Gallinani directly to the bench, and then sue him, learn to defend well and then play.

Xiao glared at Garinani, though he didn't continue to yell and reprimand. But it put a lot of pressure on Garinani, and it even made him want to escape to the bench quickly.

Xiao Xiao didn't want to be a vicious leader, but he really couldn't tolerate such a low-level mistake.

After re-serving, Xiao Po did not choose to attack quickly. Instead, he asked for basketball directly from Chris Dujon, and he planned to play a whistle press.

The Knicks now have a 13-point lead, and if they throw in a 3-pointer, they can extend the lead to more than 15 points.

Xiao slowly and leisurely held the ball through the half, and then stopped outside the three-point line.

Looking at this posture, the people on the earth knew that Xiao Shi was going to score a whistle.

As a result, the fans in the arena began to stand up one after another, and they were extremely looking forward to how Xiao Xiao would complete this attack.

Jennifer Lawrence and Megan Fox also stood up almost at the same time, and when they saw each other standing up, they immediately exchanged a look full of hostility. It is clear that the rivalry between these two men is also heating up.

For Jennifer Lawrence, chic is his own man, although he is not married, he is already destined for a lifetime.

And for Megan Fox, chic is the man God has guided him, she thought about it for a long time and decided that she didn't want to miss this well-arranged fate, so she would lower the face of her predecessors and quarrel with Jennifer Lawrence. And she also showed up at Madison Garden at such a huge risk of public opinion.

She did this to show a gesture, a dashing person, the old lady is going to decide!!

Both of them are bound to win the chic.

It's just that one person is defending and the other is attacking.

It is not yet known who will be more powerful in offense and defense, but there is no doubt that the goal they are fighting for is Xiao.

At the same time, Xiao Xiao faced two defenders on the court. Kenyon Durin and Devin Harris walked over at the same time, and they stood on either side of Xiao Shao, staring at Xiao Xiao who was bending over to dribble. They tried to create a strong sense of defensive pressure for Xiao Dash.

Although it is said that the two-person bag is a bit of an all-or-nothing feeling.

However, Devin Harris was particularly clever enough to say something to Xiao Sage: "Shaw, now the whole of New York City is waiting for your whistle ball, don't pass the ball because you are afraid of the bag!" ”

Devin Harris's agitation is not very clever.

But the chic response was domineering enough: "Even if the five of you go together, I will throw the basketball into your basket with my right hand!" To me, you two are far from worthy of being a defensive threat! ”
