Chapter 206 Double-Team Crisis
As soon as Yang Mo returned to the bench, he reminded Spoelstra: "Quickly replace Magg with Joel Anthony. They will definitely play run-and-gun next."
Yang Mo spoke as if he was giving instructions, and Spoelstra was very obedient and nodded quickly: "Yeah. Yes!"
Since Yang Mo led him to win several tough battles, his reputation has been rising steadily, and many people have begun to say that he is the best head coach of the new generation. Amid the praise from the outside world, he also understood a truth. Before Wade came back, he could only continue to win by clinging to Yang Mo's thigh. He pretended to be so good to his grandson now, not because he was completely submissive to Yang Mo , but just for fame and profit.
Spoelstra quickly completed the personnel deployment according to Yang Mo's intention. In a sense, he is now more like Yang Mo's assistant coach than the head coach. He has no opinion on this. As long as they can win, it's fine. Although the inside is lost, the face is greatly increased!
drop!
Soon, the game resumed.
When the players from both teams returned to the court, the Suns' lineup immediately changed dramatically. As expected by Yang Mo, they changed to a run-and-gun lineup. However, Yang Mo was puzzled as to why Barnes and Raja Bell were on the court at the same time. Aren't their roles somewhat overlapping? Both of them are defensive stalwarts.
Soon, Yang Mo understood Coach Porter's intention, because Barnes was sticking to him closely, even though the Suns were attacking.
" Are you planning to stick close to me and never separate whether you are attacking or defending?" Yang Mo asked the sticky Barnes unhappily.
"YES, I do!" Barnes answered very affectionately, and at the end he reached out and stroked Yang Mo's back.
Yang Mo got goosebumps all over her body and quickly moved away: "Are you gay?"
"Guess!" Barnes smiled charmingly, making Yang Mo's head drop. Damn, you look so big and strong, but you're actually gay? Oh my god.
At that moment, she subconsciously dodged him two steps, but Barnes came close again. Deliberately disgusting Yang Mo: "I have never tried an Asian man. Your muscles are so hard!"
Fuck!
Yang Mo couldn't stand it anymore and pushed him away with a slap.
But before he could use any strength, he actually fell directly at the feet of the referee. The referee was stunned at first, and then gave Yang Mo a foul.
Yang Mo was confused. This was obviously a fake fall? Why did they call a foul on me?
Yang Mo stepped forward and tried to argue, and the fans in the stadium booed him. However, the referee insisted on his decision, believing that Yang Mo had pushed someone.
"He's a gay, how can I not be with him?" Yang Mo said unhappily.
At this time, Barnes swept away his sissy temperament and stepped forward very manly: "You are gay? I am a genuine heterosexual."
After Barnes yelled like that, Yang Mo finally understood that this grandson was deceiving his grandfather.
At that moment, Yang Mo gritted his teeth and stopped talking to the referee. He just said, "Okay, you can fool your grandpa. I'll remember it." Then he ran away quickly.
But after running two steps, Barnes stuck to her like a sticky candy, looking like a bitch. He knew that he was not as strong as Yang Mo, so he did not press her, but just entangled her, constantly using his height and arms to harass her, making Yang Mo very uncomfortable.
Barnes was taller than Yang Mo, so when he swayed in front of Yang Mo, he blocked a lot of Yang Mo's view.
Bang!
While Barnes was entangled with Yang Mo, Stoudemire in the interior broke through Joel Anthony's defense and dunked fiercely. After the dunk, he looked up to the sky and howled, and he finally let out a breath of anger.
But soon, his roar was completely silenced by the boos from the audience.
Yang Mo also quickly served the ball and ran to the front court. But the Suns were no slower than the Heat, after all, they were a team that was born from running and gunning. Before Yang Mo ran back to the front court, Raja Bell and Barnes surrounded him, not giving him any space to catch the ball.
Yang Mo was covered tightly, and when Qian Mos saw that he couldn't pass the ball, he quickly passed it to Beasley. Beasley made a mid-range shot with no one guarding him... bang!
It turned out to be a failure.
The two teams started running wildly again. Barnes always followed Yang Mo and entangled him. In the end, the Suns scored again with a mid-range shot by Stoudemire.
Seeing that Stoudemire was about to play in his own rhythm, Yang Mo had no way to stop him. Barnes was like a piece of taffy that could not be shaken off.
After Yang Mo left the Heat, they had no idea how to play. They missed all kinds of open shots. The Heat fans were like ants on a hot pot. What should they do? Yang Mo was double-teamed. Was he going to be attacked by the opponent again?
Amid the fans' worries, the first quarter ended and the Suns made a crazy advance in the last five minutes and actually overtook by two points. Just as Chris Webber said, ten points is not a big deal for a running and gunning team.
The Suns reversed the score, and Stoudemire also changed his statistics to 9 points, 4 rebounds and 1 block, while Yang Mo still had 16 points, which was equivalent to Yang Mo doing a round-trip run in the last five minutes.
When he left the court, Yang Mo was a little depressed. For him now, breaking through the double-team is indeed a difficult problem. Even if he can use his excellent strength and speed to break free from the defense, he can't dribble past the two double-teamers.
His ability to hold the ball was always his weakness, even though he doubled his dribbling skills on Liu Yifei. But... his original foundation was too weak, and even if he doubled his skills, he couldn't match her.
Is he going to hit the so-called rookie wall? Is he going to become a role player from now on?
Yang Mo sat on the bench and kept asking himself questions. He hated the feeling of being bound, but now he couldn't find a way to break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly!
While Yang Mo was feeling miserable, Stoudemire was arrogant and kept describing his heroic performance on the court to his teammates, as if he had already won. This was in stark contrast to his previous miserable look. He seemed to be sure to defeat Yang Mo. But in fact, he didn't score a single point against Yang Mo.
