Chapter 205: The superiority and inferiority are judged
"Young seems to be faster and his dribbling ability seems to be better." Amid the long cheers, Dwyane Wade on the sidelines said to Pat Riley beside him.
"Yes, he is improving very fast. We bet on the right guy, and he will soon become an All-Star." Pat Riley nodded. He was very excited about Yang Mo's rapid growth.
"I heard that everyone in the team obeys his orders now." Wade said .
Pat Riley was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, Yang is a very united teammate. He will be your best helper. The combination of the two of you will definitely sweep the entire league."
"Why do I suddenly feel that Yang is no longer the Yang I was before I was injured? He has become more and more confident. And... he loves to attack even more."
Pat Riley was immediately overwhelmed when he heard Wade's words. He didn't want the combination he created to fall apart like the OK combination of the Lakers. So, he could only do his best to mediate: "Hey, since you are not here, we can only hand over the banner of offense to him. You know the other players have obvious technical shortcomings, but Young's offense is the most stable."
After Pat Riley finished speaking, Wade did not continue to speak, but just looked at Yang Mo who was full of vigor and domineering on the court. In fact, up to now, he still did not regard Yang Mo as a competitor, he just felt threatened by Yang Mo, and subconsciously he still regarded Yang Mo as the younger brother who taught him how to pick up girls.
At the same time, Yang Mo quickly ran back to the half court, and after returning to the half court, he did not forget to imitate Stoudemire's accent and said: "Guess whether I will break through from your left side or your right side..."
After hearing this, Stadler felt ashamed and angry. He hated Yang Mo so much that he gritted his teeth and said viciously, "Rookie, the game has just begun, don't be so proud."
"Yes, this is just the beginning, the excitement is yet to come!"
Yang Mo agreed with Stadler's statement very much, but he was even more upset after hearing it. He gritted his teeth and swore in his heart: "Arrogant guy, wait and see, I will dunk on your head and you will not dare to be arrogant anymore!"
Yang Mo simply ignored Stadler's gnashing of teeth, because everyone who was taught a lesson by him would express their anger in this way , and he got used to it after seeing it so many times.
At this time, Steve Nash brought the ball over, sorted it out outside the three-point line, and passed it to Shaquille O'Neal. O'Neal took the ball and still squeezed in. Although his flexibility, explosiveness and jumping ability were becoming weaker and weaker due to age and weight, his strength was still there. Magloire was quickly pushed away by him, and then he slowly turned around and hooked his shot... swish!
The ball went into the basket very easily!
Although O'Neal is no longer the invincible shark in his prime, his strength is still unmatched, and it is not difficult for him to score. In a sense, his opponent is still himself. As long as he has the perseverance to lose weight, with his strength and inside skills, he will have no problem averaging 20+10 per game in the center's declining inside line.
After O'Neal scored, Yang Mo immediately ran out of bounds to serve the ball to Mario Chalmers, and the other three players ran to the front court at an extremely fast speed. The other four players of the Suns team saw the Heat gaining momentum and quickly chased after them.
All of a sudden it was a four-on-four rush.
While running around in a disorderly manner, Qian Mos saw that Yang Mo was about to make a three-pointer in the corner, so he quickly passed the ball to him. Yang Mo took the ball and shot...swish!
Another three points.
Yang Mo scored seven points at the start of the game, as if to tell the world: When it comes to scoring, I'm not afraid of Stoudemire. I can do what he can do, and I can also do what he can't do.
Amid the cheers of the entire audience, Yang Mo pointed at Stoudemire and said wantonly, "Remember next time, I can find the hole and shoot it in better from outside the three-point line than from a woman!"
There is no doubt that Yang Mo is arrogant and domineering, and he is annoying to his opponents. But...what else can Stoudemire do except sulk? Fight? He doesn't have the guts to do that. If he really fights, Yang Mo will beat his brains out in a minute.
Not daring to take action, he could only repeat the same nonsense over and over again, gritting his teeth: "Remember, you wait!"
If he continues to hold it in like this, Yang Mo will surely cause Stadler to develop psychological symptoms.
Stoudemire wanted to perform, wanted to dunk, and wanted to let out the anger in his stomach. However, after Steve Nash brought the ball to the front court, he still gave it to Shaquille O'Neal because he thought O'Neal's hit rate would be higher.
O'Neal received the ball and attacked Magloire effortlessly.
As soon as he scored, the Heat ran for the ball. In the frontcourt, Yang Mo, who used Beasley's body to run back into the open space, hit another three-pointer.
Swish!
Within three minutes of the start, Yang Mo had already made two dunks and two three-pointers. However, Stoudemire, who had repeatedly said he would deal with Yang Mo before the game, only made one mistake. Comparing the two, it was clear who was the hero and who was the punching bag!
In the next game, the Suns still focused on O'Neal, and O'Neal played very happily because he didn't have to run back and forth, he just had to wait until he received the ball and play one-on-one. In this way, he didn't feel tired and could still score. How cool!
Originally, the Suns' new head coach Porter also believed that O'Neal had a high shooting percentage, so the opponents could run if they wanted, as O'Neal was there to stabilize the morale of the team.
But… after three or four minutes, he realized something was wrong, because the Heat's shooting percentage was also ridiculous, Yang Mo, Beasley, and Chalmers kept hitting three-pointers from outside the three-point line, and after a few rounds, they were actually leading by 10 points. In the end, he had to request a timeout. If they continued to play like this, they would be outrun.
If the Suns, who are known for their run-and-gun style, were outrun by their opponents, wouldn't people laugh their heads off if the pass got out?
When Porter requested a timeout, Yang Mo's stats were 15 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, and 1 steal, which were almost god-like stats, because it was less than seven minutes into the game, and as long as he maintained this momentum, it would be no problem for him to break his personal scoring record. However, Stoudemire's score was still 0, his rebounds were also 0, his assists were even more so, and his steals were still 0. The only statistic was... 1 turnover.
"Chris, can I bring my wife, daughter, and some relatives and friends to the dinner?" Reggie Miller said proudly to Chris Webber during a timeout.
Compared to Reggie Miller's smugness, Chris Webber's face looked a little ugly. He never dreamed that the Suns would be able to gain a double-digit lead over the Heat in this way, and he didn't expect that Yang Mo actually scored 15 points: "The game isn't over yet, Reggie. Don't be happy too soon. For a team like the Suns, a 10-point lead is nothing."
"You're just being stubborn. So far, no one on the Suns has been able to make things difficult for Yang. Yang is destined to go on a killing spree tonight. The Suns don't have any defensive stalwarts." Reggie Miller said with great pride: "Did you see those three three-pointers Yang made? Those are the skills I taught him."
"The Suns will use double-team tactics soon, and they will also play fast breaks like mercury again. Then the Heat will be in trouble."
"The Heat are not afraid of running and gunning, the Golden State Warriors are a lesson for them!"
"Even if the Heat are not afraid of run-and-gun and Yang is afraid of double-teaming, I will still win!"
"I'm the winner, damn it!"
“…”
While ESPN was arguing over there, TNT was discussing the Heat's conspiracy tactics with a smile on their faces.
"The Heat's current tactics are too cunning. They deliberately used an aging Magloire to attract O'Neal's firepower, paralyze the opponent, and continuously deliver the basketball to O'Neal. Although O'Neal can score, he cannot participate in the quick return to defense. The Heat took the opportunity to launch a running and gunning offense, taking advantage of the Suns team's disconnection from Shaquille O'Neal, continuously scoring points, and at the same time slowly adjusting the players' offensive status to the best." Kenny Smith's analysis was very reasonable.
"Yes, this is Spoelstra's conspiracy." Collins nodded and said very confidently.
"No, this is Yang's conspiracy. Only Yang can come up with this kind of strategy. Spoelstra's mind is still a little rigid. It is impossible for him to come up with such a tactic of abandoning a center position. He does not have the courage. No one on the Heat, even Pat Riley, dares to play like this . Only Yang has this plan. Only he dares to leave the inside empty and instead seize the opponent's weakness and keep stepping on him to death!" Barkley was very sure that this was Yang Mo's strategy.
"I am more inclined to believe that this is Yang Ti's suggestion." Kenny Smith also agreed.
