Chapter 5052: Mor Williams and Gary Payton!
"Toot!"
The whistle blew and the game officially began.
Da Yao walked into the halfcourt circle and prepared to play a jump ball.
Boston Celtics starting center Reeve Lafrentz stood across from Big Yao.
The referee tosses the basketball high.
Subsequently, Reeve Lafrenz and Da Yao jumped at the same time.
Da Yao touched the basketball before Reeve Lafrentz.
Basketball was dialed to Mo Williams.
Mo Williams, who finally started the game, is especially excited right now.
You know, his current starting position is completely different from Jose Calderón.
When Jose Calderón started earlier, he had Allen Iverson by his side.
So Jose Calderón doesn't have a lot of shots and doesn't have many chances to keep the ball.
But now, due to the injuries of José Calderón and others.
Plus Han Ning's tactical requirements.
In order to ensure that the Knicks can have enough offensive firepower in the first half of the game.
So in the starting position, Mo Williams and Benno Youdri are in charge of the two defenders.
Without Allen Iverson by his side, and the team's interior players don't spend most of their energy on offense in the first half of the game.
The pressure on Mo-Williams and Benno Youdri is much greater.
To be precise, the two of them can attack as much as they want.
Moreover, Benno Yudri himself is a very stable person.
If you really give him unlimited firing rights, you may not be able to do it very well.
After all, a very stable person sometimes means that he lacks a little madness.
And this is not what Han Ning needs now.
Mo Williams, on the contrary, is perfectly suited to pick up the girder at this time.
Mo Williams dribbled to the front court and faced Gary Payton, who was defending him, although there was no smile on his face, anyone could see that there was some excitement and joy in his eyes.
And Gary Payton, who is responsible for defending him, can naturally see the change in Mo Williams' heart now.
As a veteran, Gary Payton suddenly felt displeased.
said with a gloomy face: "Why, you're so excited to make a starter?!" Young man, you're too much to breathe. ”
Hearing this, Mo Williams was a little dazed in his heart, glanced at Gary Payton, and didn't say anything more.
However, Mo Williams's silence only annoyed Gary Payton even more.
Why, I said two words to you, what do you mean by not talking back?!
You really didn't take me seriously?!
Gary Payton went on to say: "You don't really think you're going to be a starter and you're going to be a starter, are you?! ”
"You don't think that after you start the game, you will be able to make a name for yourself, right?!"
After hearing Gary Payton's words, Mo Williams finally understood.
Gary Payton feels like he's looking down on him.
That's why I trash talk to myself.
If it was Mo Williams in the past, maybe he would have been on it a long time ago.
It's possible to scold Gary Payton.
However, after playing with Han Ning for so long, Mo Williams will not be so easily angry.
Isn't it just trash talk?!
The Knicks also have a lot of psychology courses on weekdays.
One of the most important is how to control your emotions and how to ignore your opponent when they are trash-talking.
In this area, Mo Williams's grades are not the best, but he has learned almost.
At this time, hearing Gary Payton's trash talk, Mo Williams didn't take it seriously, but bowed slightly, ready to start attacking.
Seeing that Mo Williams didn't take care of himself, Gary Payton was a little choked in his heart.
If you want to scold people to break their defenses, the most effective way is not to scold back.
Instead, ignore him.
The current Gary Payton belongs to the one who is ignored.
The heart is unspeakably uncomfortable.
However, just as he was about to say something more and try to get Mo Williams to talk back, Mo Williams' offense kicked in.
Straight up and rushed to the right.
Gary Payton reacted and rushed over for a close defense.
This is also the fact that Mo Williams himself is not fast enough.
Otherwise, with the reaction speed of Gary Payton just now, it would have been passed a long time ago.
However, even if Gary Payton posted up in time to defend, he couldn't stop Mo Williams' offense.
In itself, Mo Williams' offense is not based on breakouts.
Instead, it is dominated by medium- and long-range projection.
At the same time, it also has the ability to attack with the ball.
After seeing Gary Payton follow his defense, Mo Williams slapped the basketball from behind to the left with his right hand.
The basketball came from behind him to his left hand, and his body came to a sharp stop.
Then he glanced up at the basket.
Before Gary Payton could stop, Mo Williams had already put his hands on the ball, jumped quickly, and completed a step-back jumper in the air.
"Huh!"
Basketball hollow into the net!
Three points to win.
After the goal, Mo Williams looked at Gary Payton and frowned, and the smile on his face was obvious.
He said softly: "It feels really different to be a starter, and this shot is much harder." ”
Gary Payton, who was a little annoyed after Mo Williams scored a goal, suddenly became even more angry.
I went to NM to shoot a lot harder.
What the hell, you mean my defense isn't as good as the bench players?!
So rampant at such a young age!
Gary Payton, who was angry, took the initiative to ask his teammates for the ball.
Then the dribble came to the front court and found Mo Williams.
opened his mouth and said: "Boy, if you have the ability, you can guard me down." ”
Gary Payton then went straight to the attack.
The startup rushed to the left.
At the same time, Gary Payton's teammate Tony Allen ran over to help with a pick-and-roll.
After Mo Williams was blocked by Tony Allen, he was pulled away by Gary Payton by half a body.
Gritting his teeth, he endured the physical discomfort after the collision with Tony Allen just now, and quickly pounced on Gary Payton.
However, Gary Payton just glanced up at the basket after he stopped.
But he didn't take the initiative to shoot.
Instead, after Mo Williams pounced in front of him, he threw the basketball in his hand directly to the right.
Standing in front of the basket and one step outside the three-point line, Tony Allen received a pass from Gary Payton.
At this time, the Knicks players who were supposed to defend him were still one and a half steps away from him.
It's too late!
Tony Allen put his hands on the ball and went straight to the jumper.
"Huh!"
The same three points scored!
