Chapter 243: Irreconcilable
At halftime, Yang Mo no longer stayed outside the three-point line, but stayed near the free throw line, coordinating in the middle and constantly directing the players' movements.
Under the command of Yang Mo , the freshman team has begun to show the style of an integrated team. The players are doing their respective duties and the team is running in an orderly manner. Compared with the loose and independent second-year team, they are undoubtedly much better.
Doc Rivers, the head coach of the Eastern Conference, who was watching the game from the sidelines, was very surprised. He had come here to relax, but Yang Mo's aggressive attack at the beginning of the game made him excited. Now he saw a very rare chain offense, the so-called zipper tactics, and an inverted V-shaped system. This is not something that ordinary coaches can use, and obviously Dwyane Wade certainly can't use it. So the only possibility is that Yang Mo, who is directing on the court, is proficient in this tactical system.
But the fact is, Yang Mo is not proficient in what is called zipper offense, and has not even heard of this tactic. He only knows that this lineup can better play the advantages of the five players by playing in this way.
Greg Oden is a strong defender of the restricted area, Beasley's offensive skills are very suitable for scoring near the free throw line on both sides, and Westbrook and Derrick Rose are natural breakthrough masters. With such personnel configuration, it is of course more reasonable to form a V-shaped offense, otherwise why would two breakthrough experts be ambushed in the bottom corner?
If Doc Rivers knew that Yang Mo made this adjustment completely out of instinct, he would definitely be shocked. Because this kind of court awareness is at a historical level, 80% of the head coaches in the league may not have this talent. They are all trained after birth, and there is a natural gap between talent and instinct. This is why some people can easily gain fame and fortune, while others work hard but can only make ends meet. Although talent cannot determine everything, it can at least determine 80%.
Soon, Yang Mo pulled out of the three-point line and made a solid pick-and-roll for Derrick Rose. Rose used the pick-and-roll to instantly rush into the restricted area. Horford had to run over to assist in defense. Rose flicked his wrist, and Oden received the ball and dunked to score with great ease.
This is a tactical victory.
In fact, there are many variations of this ball. Derrick Rose can also pass the ball to Beasley, Beasley can choose to shoot a mid-range shot or pass it to Westbrook for another breakthrough, or pass it to Yang Mo for a three-pointer... This tactic gives everyone's offensive power full freedom and expands everyone's talent to the limit.
The freshman team suddenly played the tactics of a mature team, but the sophomore team still used the same tactics. Their personnel allocation was unreasonable, and the head coach was still Howard. What tactics ?
The only advantage the sophomore team has now is an extra year of NBA experience.
But what does experience mean?
In front of this group of extremely talented first-year students, he still killed them with one punch!
As the tactical system was established, the freshman team played more and more easily and with more satisfaction, and everyone gained great freedom. With three minutes left in the first quarter, the freshman team had established an 11-point advantage. This was an amazing feat.
Yang Mo scored 17 points, which was even more amazing. His shooting percentage was a staggering 100%. He made every three-pointer and every dunk.
The freshman team was going better and better and was likely to beat the sophomore team in one fell swoop. But the downside of the All-Star Game was that it had to be paused because the sponsors needed to run commercials.
This kind of suspension will undoubtedly disrupt the rhythm of the game, but this is a commercial league. No advertising means no money. Without money... who will play? This is not a charity. Besides, even if it is a charity, it needs money.
The five players of the freshman team walked back to the bench, all with happy expressions, obviously they enjoyed the game. As for the other players, they were much more unhappy. We are all freshmen, why are you so successful while we are sitting on the bench? We also need a chance to play.
So they kept urging Dwyane Wade to substitute them, and Wade agreed verbally but refused to call a timeout.
The officials called a timeout, and he had to make a personnel adjustment. So, he made a very direct decision to replace five players with five players: "OJ Mayo, Rudy Fernandez, Gallinari, Brook Lopez, Marc Gasol, you guys go in, come on!"
Finally getting a chance to play, the five of them were eager to fight, ready to beat up the second-year team. They watched Yang Mo and his team play so easily on the court, and thought they could do it, too.
Soon, the game continued.
The confident first-year team was stunned by the second-year team right from the start. The second-year team, which had been suppressed like sheep, instantly turned into jackals when they met the first-year team led by Mayolupes, and they killed the first-year team mercilessly, defeating them miserably.
Westbrook, who was sitting on the bench, saw this and was anxious to get on the court, but Yang Mo reached out and held him back, saying with a smile, "Why are you so anxious? These guys didn't lose face for you, aren't they unwilling to accept it? Let's see how many points they lose, otherwise they really think they are that powerful."
Yang Moru said this, and before Westbrook could figure it out, Greg Oden next to him said excitedly: "Yes, let them lose. The more they lose, the more it can show our bravery. Then we can have another shocking reversal! Wow, this script is perfect!"
Unconsciously, Oden has defected from the other team to Yang Mo's side. There is no other way, who told him to follow Yang Mo to get meat? Just now when he dunked, Yang Mo's female fans gave him two cheers. It feels so good to be surrounded by girls! It's so good that he wants to be Yang Mo's little brother now, because following Yang Mo not only can he dunk, but also get screams from girls.
Oden was so happy to surrender, but the freshman team was booed. Seeing them lose all their lead and playing like shit, Yang Mo's fans and a few other fans couldn't stand it anymore. They kept booing and cursing, and shouted in unison: "We need Super Yang! We need Super Yang!"
The boos, insults, and shouts at Yang Mo made the freshman team feel extremely frustrated. It was , but the fans didn't even cheer them on. Instead, they were humiliated. Why? Why did they get applause and cheers, but we were treated like this?
With this mentality, they played worse and worse, and an 11-point lead instantly turned into a 5-point deficit.
When the bottom line keeps being refreshed...Ding!
The first quarter is over.
When the five men walked down dejectedly like defeated roosters, none of Yang Mo and his four companions gave up their seats. They all crossed their legs with proud expressions.
Now Yang Mo has made it clear that she wants to draw a clear line between herself and those who are against her.
Yang Mo is not a pushover. If you guys do it on the first day, I'll have to do it on the fifteenth. No one can dare to mess with the Tai Sui.
The five people refused to give up their seats, so they could only sit in the corner nearby, panting.
At this time, Wade came over and asked, "Yang, are you guys going to play later?"
"No, let those guys go up, otherwise they will say that we don't give them the chance to perform. We want to see whether they are more capable or our skills are stronger!" Yang Mo answered loudly, deliberately letting everyone around him hear.
Yang Mo drew the line directly, made her attitude clear and acted decisively.
This is the rhythm of beating the dog when it is down.
That's right, Yang Mo wants to beat up these idiots. They can't make money and can't get girls, so they just make innuendos and isolate others. What's this? If you have the ability, go and get the data yourself? If you have the ability, why don't you also do a Miami Hotline? If you don't have the ability, you have to stay at home. What's the point of complaining and being jealous like a woman?
