Chapter 201: Repentance and Atonement

"Don't say it, 'Eye-catching', the Knicks' lineup is really good, the team is to attack and defend, to have speed and tonnage, to be able to form such a lineup, no matter how bad the record is, how strong the opponent is, they have the possibility of touching it!"

Watching the players on both sides settle down, Director Zhang pointed to the lineups of players on both sides and forced the Knicks to play.

Unlike the Rockets, who are full of suspense in every game, always on the back foot, and need to find reasons for their victory.

The suspense only happened in the first three quarters of the Heat, and there is no need to tout anything, but in order to keep the eyes of fans, they need to find a reason to win for the Heat's opponents.

"Indeed, don't look at the Knicks' record is very average, according to Coach Larry Brown's words, they just lack the attitude and desire to win, of course, the strength of the Heat itself must still be better than the Heat, especially O'Neal's absence retains suspense for today's game."

Sun Zhengping followed the rhythm of Zhang's guidance and explained in a decent manner.

"Yes, the Knicks' outside shooters are luxurious, look at their starting perimeter linemen, Marbury, [Quentin] Richardson, Artest, all of them have played quite well in previous seasons, not to mention that they have Houston and Hardaway on the bench who are worth tens of millions of dollars to cheer them on.

But if you really want to say that it is the winner or loser of the game, it has to be the Knicks' center 'Little Shark' Eddie Curry, as the only center in the league who simply uses O'Neal as a template and can be recognized by O'Neal, whether he can use his talent to complete the absolute suppression of Mourning will determine the outcome of today's game. ”

Like Larry Brown, Director Zhang has set his sights on the inside.

There are not many players who use O'Neal as a template, but Eddie Curry is the only one who is a "pure-blood" O'Neal template.

Like Howard last season, the template is O'Neal skewering David Robinson; This season's Bynum, it was O'Neal who strung Abdul-Jabbar; In the future, O'Neill strung Duncan......

It's a clever way to say that the scouts are touting the talent and skill of the players, but if you look closely, you will notice that there is actually a limited meaning.

Eddie Curry did not live up to everyone's expectations of him at the beginning, in 04 when Ao Fat was still in the Lakers, Eddie Curry had almost the same level of weight and strength as Ao Fat could not enter the inside line, and also got the temporary title of "the first center in the East" after the game.

However, not to mention talent and technique, this kid's attitude towards the game and desire to win are far inferior to Ao Fat.

"Jump the ball, look at how the Heat defend this ball."

Seeing the players on both sides put on a stance, Director Zhang also began his prediction.

As the team with the lowest jump ball success rate in the league, many Heat fans are making suggestions to the league to turn the jump ball into a fairer coin toss.

Fans who often watch the game are not surprised by Director Zhang's prediction.

But who would have thought that Mourning, who just tried as usual, would successfully win the ball for the Heat in today's game.

Eddie Curry, who hasn't completely lost his weight, can jump, but when he thinks about the rest time that can enter All-Star week after this game, his attention can no longer be 100% focused on the court.

Atai unsurprisingly appeared in front of Mo Wen in time.

It's different from the career of getting up early in the morning and catching up for a late episode in the original time and space.

Although the Knicks are now quite on record, Atay has not given up on himself.

His originally stout elbows, which were a little exaggerated, were now one size bigger.

Mo Wen didn't have any intention of coming up and fighting with Atai.

For Taizi's defense, Mo Wen is still quite recognized.

After shaking twice in the confrontation and failing to find a particularly good opportunity, Mo Wen passed the ball to the flank and cut into Wade.

Wade didn't take advantage of the small open space to shoot after holding the ball, but reorganized the dribble in front of Marbury.

Atai glanced at the situation on the field, and did not rush to chase Mo Wen who pulled away from the other side, but faced Mo Wen's direction, pretended to move two steps sideways, and then turned sharply, and an arrow suddenly appeared in front of Wade, taking advantage of the brief stiffness that Wade fell into because of the fright, he quickly shot and cut the ball.

Bang Bang Bang –

The 110-kilogram step stomped heavily on the floor of the Knicks' home court.

It's a pity that his ball control level is not worthy of his brute rushing momentum.

Under the basket, the runaway basketball turned a good blood into a funny fan.

The basketball was almost dribbled out of bounds by him!

And when he turned around and wanted to pull onions on dry land to continue the performance just now, a beautiful boy floated by, and there was no physical contact, just simply passing by, and slapped the ball on the way.

Smack-

The advantage of the big hand is vividly reflected at this moment, it seems that Mo Wen just waved it lightly, but in fact, Mo Wen's five fingers are responsible for this theft.

Putting aside the advantages on the court, Mo Wen was actually not particularly satisfied with this big hand.

Because of this big hand, he also lost the happiness of "not being able to grasp it with one hand".

The ball landed on Altai's feet and bounced off.

Atai still wanted to catch the ball, but it was too late.

Fortunately, the fan in front of him looked at the size of the authentic big flying pillar level, she not only caught Atai steadily, but even gave Atai a kiss in a hurry.

After seeing the soft 300 pounds in front of him, Atai was like Jerry who had seen Tom, his fifth limb retracted and escaped with all four limbs.

It's true that they black people like big butts, but they don't have much interest in this kind of leg that can't open 90 degrees.

Heat ball possession.

Artest, who returned to the defensive end, looked at Mo Wen with a little more fighting intent in his eyes.

Larry Brown went into loudspeaker mode again, shouting out at his players to focus on defense.

This time, Mo Wen did not pass the ball, but as if dancing on the tip of a knife, he took the ball steadily through the half court against Atai's pressing.

made a pause and hesitation in the logo area, which can be called a sneaker killer, and Mo Wen suddenly had to change speed and make a strong breakthrough.

Feeling that Atai relaxed his defense in order to keep up with the blocking, Mo Wen did not miss the opportunity, and took a big step to the side to stop and pull up, referred to as - Big Rush Pull, and hurriedly rushed to shoot this slightly sloppy three points before Atai's blockade.

Hmmm-

Some New York fans on the sidelines couldn't hold back and gave Mo Wen a little cheer.

Back to the offensive round in New York.

Marbury took the ball and began to push steadily.

After halftime, Marbury didn't look for his touch in a single game like he had done in previous seasons, but passed the ball to the big Q on the side in a rather stereotypical way.

Big Q is a catch-and-shoot pitcher, he shook twice against the defense, and when he saw that there was no chance, he changed hands and passed to Eddie Curry in the bottom corner.

Eddie Curry held the ball for ten seconds, felt Mourning was a little harder than he thought, and passed it back to Marbury.

With little time left, Marbury raised his hand to threaten three, took advantage of the attacker's first strike advantage to stagger half of his body, and seized the little space to force a throw in the middle of the range.

With a wave of his iron elbow, Atai emptied the space around him, as if the "realm" of fantasy unfolded.

But who would have thought that two and a half years ago, he was a 19-year-old teenager, and now he is 22 years old......

Although Mo Wen's muscles are not as exaggerated as Ah Tai's, the two and a half years of practice are just because, plus 100 million points of skill, it is enough to support him to carry out the hard steel on the front.

Bang Bang Bang –

Mo Wen had a set of close-fitting lightning five consecutive whips and got the rebound.

And Wade, the chicken thief, has already rushed to the front,

Mo Wen took two steps and launched a rocket on the midline to push the ball to the basket.

Wade saw the trajectory of the ball and jumped to catch it, or to protect it, and slammed it into the basket in the direction of the incoming ball.

Because Wade's hand didn't hit the basket, this ball can be considered a mini version of a meteor slam dunk.

The cheers of the New York fans were even louder.

There are even fans who are ready to take off the original Knicks jersey, revealing the black and red jersey of the Heat inside.

Artest walked back with a straight face, lowered his head and clenched his fists, and he needed to work harder to prevent Mo Wen from dying!

After competing with Mo Wen or his failed self, Atai almost gave up his role on the offensive end and focused all his energy on blocking Mo Wen.

In the competition, the movements of the two are getting bigger and bigger.

The referee did not cool down, but chose to condone.

If you don't mention the old feud between the two, you can't hear about the feud with New York, and he can't interfere here.

However, Atay's offline on the offensive end also made the Knicks' already poor offense even worse.

I have to say that Larry Brown's offensive system is a fantastic thing.

Last season, Marbury was a lone force and played a blind game in New York, and the Knicks ranked 24th in the league in assists per game.

And Larry Brown came, stripped Marbury of the unlimited right to fire, and strictly ordered everyone to pass the ball as much as possible, and every ball was tried to be passed through everyone's hands as much as possible.

As a result, the Knicks' average assists per game fell directly to the position with the most room for improvement.

In the first two seasons, the Pistons, who had been averaging assists per game outside the top 10, climbed directly to the second highest position after Larry Brown left!

A lot of assists doesn't necessarily mean that the team is running smoothly, but if there are fewer assists, it means that there must be something wrong with the team's tactical system.

At halftime, the Knicks trailed by 25 points.

This was still played when Mo Wen was strictly watched by Atai.

In the second half, the Knicks players who felt that there was no hope of winning the game went straight away, and Larry Brown shouted at them to listen, but they were only willing to make a appearance.

And it's not easy to make substitutions, there are few base salaries in New York, and Larry Brown, a player with a base salary, doesn't dare to use it at this time.

On the pitch, Artest and the rest of the New York players were distinct.

In the middle of the third quarter, the Knicks were behind by 33 points, but Artest still unswervingly implemented the idea of preventing death.

In the middle, Mo Wen made a protective move and fell to the ground after a forced shot, Atai did not turn around to participate in the counterattack, still opened his arms, faced Mo Wen, and maintained a defensive posture.

Winning is no longer something that Artai can hope for in New York, but at least let him win Mowen once.

New York fans were also infected by Artest's stubbornness, and for the first time, they did not boo or leave the game because the team was down by a large score.

Every time the Heat attacked, they would shout "Defense" loudly to cheer for Atai.

They all wanted to see how far Atai could prevent Mo Wen with all his might.

At the end of the third quarter, Mo Wen only scored 11 points on 3 of 10 shots, plus free throws, which is definitely Mo Wen's lowest score and lowest shooting percentage in the first three quarters of this season.

Larry Brown was also relieved when he saw Mo Wen's score, although he was slaughtered, but he managed to curb the arrogance of Mo Wen, a little bastard.

They were given a 40-point lead after the third quarter.

Mo Wen's score today is estimated to be 11 points forever.

Wade brushed up today, Mo Wen was going to brush up on the opportunity to make a record all the opportunities for him, Wade got 42 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists in the 3rd quarter, if the score is slower, he is estimated to be able to brush a 50+ triple-double tonight.

However, what is surprising is that in the fourth quarter, Mo Wen not only did not end the game, but even became the main attacker and began to blatantly brush the data.

Larry Brown's teeth itched, and he wanted to find someone to do the dirty work and give Mo Wen a hard time.

But he forgot that Mo Wen still had the title of "Madison Garden God of War".

Although some newcomers have not seen it at the scene, they can clearly see Mo Wen's combat effectiveness by watching the video.

They weren't Atai, and they weren't so bold to go for trouble with Mo Wen.

And Taizi, although he was also injured by Mo Wen's various small actions, he also knew very well that he could still fight with Mo Wen passionately with his physical advantage in a legitimate confrontation.

And in the illegal confrontation, he can only be beaten.

In the last quarter, the confrontation between the two continued, but Mo Wen, who switched to serious scoring mode, slowly regained his sense of accuracy after slowly cultivating his feel with a large number of shots.

Larry Brown also provided a timely assist.

He asked Marbury to assist Mo Wen in the defense, helping Mo Wen get into the groove more quickly.

Marbury, who was far worse than Atay in terms of size, strength, and defensive judgment, became Mo Wen's best scope.

New York fans, who were still happy for Mo Wen at the Madison Garden Arena 10 minutes ago, turned their heads and found that Mo Wen was actually soaring up against two people!

After the game, looking at 78:128 on the big screen, Larry Brown suddenly felt a throbbing pain in his heart, and then his eyes went black.

This is Larry Brown's second heart attack this year, and the last time it was after the Knicks lost to the Raptors, and the Raptors' coach asked him why the Knicks wanted to sign the Raptors for the first ......

Seeing Larry Brown on the ground with one hand and slowly kneeling on the ground with a painful face, many of the Knicks' players saw it, but they didn't come forward to greet him with concern.

It's cruel, but in their opinion, it's Larry Brown's confession and atonement......

Let's start with another chapter......

It's been one night, and my calf and belly are harder than JB's......
