Chapter 202: Beaten into a Sandbag
Stoudemire's arrogance soon reached Yang Mo's ears. During the team's open training match, a reporter asked Yang Mo about this matter. Yang Mo finally responded: "Fans, get ready to cheer, I will beat this guy into a sandbag!"
Domineering!
When the Miami fans heard this response, they immediately screamed like chicken blood. They were so excited that they couldn't wait to go to the American Airlines Center. So... on the day when the Heat started selling tickets for the game, more than 20,000 tickets were sold out in less than an hour. There were at least more than 100,000 Miami fans on ebuy seeking to buy scalped tickets, and the scalpers took the opportunity to make a fortune. They dared to offer a high price of 100 US dollars for the worst fifth-class tickets. You should know that they only need to spend less than 20 US dollars to buy them, and they can make five times the profit by reselling them. Even so, crazy fans still fought hard for them.
The attention paid to this game was unprecedented in Miami, and it also caused a certain sensation across the U.S. After all, this was the game of Yang Mo, a hot topic figure. Yang Mo had not fired at his opponents in many games, and now he finally aimed his gun at Stoudemire.
Taking advantage of the nationwide attention, Stoudemire added fuel to the fire: "Miami has no choice but to lose tomorrow night. That Chinese kid called the fans here to see him lose face. I have never been afraid of Chinese people. Yao Ming, as the No. 1 pick, didn't snatch my best rookie award. What is this guy?"
If before, Stadler was only hostile to Yang Mo, then now that he has activated the skill of group ridicule, he has undoubtedly attracted hatred from the majority of Chinese fans.
CCTV also showed its support for once, and took the initiative to change the game. The originally planned Lakers vs. Rockets game was not broadcast, and the Heat vs. Suns game was switched. If you don't broadcast it when the opponent is so aggressive, you are not a Chinese!
Yao Ming has always been known for his honesty and loyalty. It is not known whether he was inspired by Yang Mo's aura or wanted to show off his youthful enthusiasm before his career comes to an end. He even made a public statement: "I will tell Stoudemire why I was the No. 1 pick in the game next ."
Even the honest man Yao Ming made harsh remarks, so you can imagine how thorough the hatred that Stoudemire has pulled out is.
But it's true. You can just have a verbal fight with Yang Mo, but why did you drag Yao Ming into it? Isn't that asking for trouble? Although Yao Ming is not in the same shape as before, with his physical strength and amazing basketball skills, can he easily defeat an opponent like Stoudemire who can only attack from the front?
The two best Chinese players in the NBA are now attacking Stoudemire. Don't Chinese fans regard him as a public enemy? Overnight, there are countless scarecrows with Stoudemire's name on them, all covered with needles.
This originally unattractive game was also broadcast live by two major sports TV stations, TNT and ESPN, in North America. This is a treatment that only Christmas games can have. There is no way, who makes the NBA so boring now? Yang Mo is the only one who can stir up the topic. Other stars don’t like to make harsh words. Those who make harsh words are basically extras or cannon fodder. Only Yang Mo is awesome. He keeps his word. If he says he will kill your whole family today, he will definitely kill your whole family. Since he said he wanted to destroy the Lakers but ended up killing the runner-up, few people dare to question him anymore, because it hurts their faces and they are afraid of getting slapped.
The game finally arrived slowly amidst everyone's anticipation. The American Airlines Center was packed that night. Not only were the seats filled with fans, but the aisles were also crowded because there were so many people paying attention. Everyone wanted to see how Yang Mo would beat the arrogant Stoudemire into a sandbag.
That night, after some warm-up activities, the game finally kicked off amid the excitement of the fans. When Yang Mo made his final appearance, he immediately received the loudest cheers. Amid the shouts of more than 20,000 fans, Yang Mo arrogantly walked to the center of the stadium, raised his right hand high, like an emperor.
Dwyane Wade on the sidelines looked at Yang Mo standing in the center of the field receiving thunderous cheers. He felt inexplicably lost and a little jealous. This was the treatment he should have enjoyed.
However, this emotion soon disappeared and he also applauded. He believed that this was temporary and when he returned to the court, he would still be the king of Miami.
After the fans cheered, the game officially began.
Both teams used aging centers. The Heat sent Magloire, while the Suns sent Shaquille O'Neal, who was traded from the Heat last year.
It seems that even though the argument before the game was about the best forward for the run-and-gun tactics, when it came to the game, everyone still played positional offense.
It was like selling dog meat under the guise of sheep meat, but the fans didn't mind. The focus now was not on whether to run and gun or not. In fact, it had nothing to do with that. The focus now was how Yang Mo beat Stoudemire into a sandbag.
drop!
When the referee blew the whistle and threw the basketball into the air, Magloire actually won the jump ball. This was the first time this season , a miracle! However, if you look closely, this is not an inspirational story. The reason why he got the ball was simply because O'Neal was too lazy to jump, and he tried his best to tiptoe.
Qian Mos received the basketball and immediately moved it slowly to the frontcourt. When he got to the frontcourt, he immediately passed it to Yang Mo who was running outside the three-point line.
As soon as Yang Mo received the ball, no one knew who started the chant, but everyone started shouting MVP like a tsunami!
At this moment, Yang Mo couldn't help but feel a little dazed: Are they calling me the MVP? Isn't this a treatment only for superstars?
Yang Mo was surprised for a moment, then he came to his senses. He patted the ball and hooked his finger at Stoudemire disdainfully: "Come on! Come up and play with me!"
Yang Mo challenged Stoudemire for the first ball. The fans at the scene went crazy. They stared with eyes wide open and didn't want to miss any details. They subconsciously stopped shouting MVP and held their breath waiting for Yang Mo to give Stoudemire a warning!
