Chapter 5052 Mo Williams and Gary Payton!
"beep!"
The whistle blows and the game officially begins.
Dayao walked to the midfield circle and prepared to jump ball.
Boston Celtics starting center Reeve LaFrentz stands opposite Dayao.
The referee threw the basketball high.
Then, Reeve LaFrentz and Dayao took off at the same time.
Dayao touched the basketball before Reeve LaFrentz.
Basketball was assigned to Mo Williams.
Mo Williams, who finally became the starter, is extremely excited now.
You know, his current starting position is completely different from that of Jose Calderon.
When Jose Calderon started earlier, Allen Iverson was with him.
Therefore, Jose Calderon did not get many shots and did not have many opportunities to control the ball.
But now, due to injuries to Jose Calderon and others.
Coupled with Han Ning's tactical requirements.
In order to ensure that the Knicks have sufficient offensive firepower in the first half of the game.
Therefore, in the starting position, Mo Williams and Benno Udrih are responsible for the two defender positions.
Without Allen Iverson by his side, and the team's interior players will not use most of their energy on offense in the first half of the game.
The pressure on Mo Williams and Benno Udri is a lot greater.
To be precise, the two of them can attack however they want.
Moreover, Benno Udri himself is a very stable person.
If you really give him unlimited fire rights, he may not be able to do very well.
After all, a very stable person sometimes means that he lacks a little bit of craziness.
And this is not what Han Ning needs now.
Mo Williams is very suitable to take the lead at this time.
Mo Williams dribbled to the frontcourt 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 guarding him, can naturally see the change in Mo Williams's heart.
As a veteran, Gary Payton suddenly became unhappy.
He said with a sullen face: "Why are you so excited to be a starter?! Young man, you are too impatient."
Hearing this, Mo Williams felt a little confused. He glanced at Gary Payton and said nothing more.
However, Mo Williams' silence only angered Gary Payton even more.
What, what do you mean if you don’t talk back to me when I say something to you?!
You really don’t take me seriously?!
Gary Payton then said: "You don't really think that after you become the starter, you have the opportunity to continue to be the starter, do you?!"
"You don't think that you will become famous after you become the starter, do you?"
After hearing what Gary Payton said, Mo Williams finally understood.
Gary Payton felt that he looked down on him.
That's why I talk trash to myself.
If it were the Mo Williams of the past, he might have gotten into trouble long ago.
It's possible to even quarrel with Gary Payton.
However, after playing with Han Ning for so long, Mo Williams will not get angry so easily.
Isn’t that just trash talk?!
The Knicks also have a lot of psychology courses on weekdays.
The most important thing is how to control your emotions and how to ignore your opponent when they talk trash.
In this aspect of the course, Mo Williams's grades were not the best, but he was able to learn almost enough.
At this time, after hearing Gary Payton's trash talk, Mo Williams did not take it seriously. Instead, he bowed slightly and prepared to attack.
Seeing that Mo Williams ignored him, Gary Payton felt a little blocked.
The most effective way to break the defense of someone who wants to curse is not to curse back.
Instead ignore him.
Now Gary Payton is the one who is ignored.
I felt unspeakable pain in my heart.
However, just when he wanted to say something more and try to get Mo Williams to reply, Mo Williams' attack started.
He immediately started speeding towards the right side.
After Gary Payton reacted, he rushed over to defend himself.
This is because Mo Williams is not fast enough.
Otherwise, with Gary Payton's reaction speed just now, he would have been passed by him long ago.
However, even if Gary Payton came up to defend in time, he could not stop Mo Williams' attack.
In itself, Mo Williams' offense is not focused on breakthroughs.
Instead, it focuses on medium and long distance projection.
At the same time, he also has the ability to attack with the ball.
After seeing Gary Payton keep up with his defense, Mo Williams directly used his right hand to slap the basketball from behind to the left.
The basketball came from behind to his left hand, and his body stopped suddenly.
Then he looked up at the basket.
Before Gary Payton had time to stop, Mo Williams had put his hands on the ball, quickly took off, and completed a fadeaway jumper in the air.
"Whoa!"
The basketball hits the net!
Scored three points.
After scoring the goal, Mo Williams looked at Gary Payton and his brows jumped, with an obvious smile on his face.
He said softly: "It feels really different to be a starter. My shots are much more energetic."
Gary Payton, who was a little annoyed after Mo Williams scored a goal, suddenly became even more angry.
My shots at nm are much stronger.
What, you mean my defense is not as good as those substitute players?!
So arrogant at such a young age!
A frustrated Gary Payton took the initiative to ask for the ball from his teammates.
Then dribbled to the frontcourt and found Mo Williams.
He opened his mouth and said, "Boy, if you can, guard me."
Afterwards, Gary Payton directly launched an attack.
He started to speed and rushed towards the left.
At the same time, Gary Payton's teammate Tony Allen ran over to help set up a pick-and-roll.
After Mo Williams was blocked by Tony Allen, he was half a length away from Gary Payton.
He gritted his teeth, endured the physical discomfort after the collision with Tony Allen, and quickly rushed towards Gary Payton.
However, after Gary Payton stopped, he just looked up at the basket.
But he didn't take the initiative to shoot.
Instead, after Mo Williams jumped in front of him, he directly swung the basketball in his hand 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 be guarding him were still one and a half steps away from him.
It's too late!
Tony Allen put the ball with both hands and took off to shoot.
"Whoa!"
Chapter completed!
