Chapter 353 super yang!
The two of them started speeding up almost at the same time, because he knew Yang Mo's style too well. Yang Mo was used to grabbing the jump ball every time. Since Miami's jump ball ability was too weak, he had to attack bravely to seize the initiative for the team.
Wade thought that he had predicted successfully and would definitely be able to stop Yang Mo, but in fact, he fell behind after the first step.
This made him simply unable to believe his eyes. He knew Yang Mo too well. In his opinion, although Yang Mo's speed was very strong and not slower than his own, his explosive power at the start was a problem. But now... he actually got ahead of him. Is this true?
Wade didn't know that Yang Mo had already achieved Shawn Kemp's peak explosiveness. This explosiveness was even more amazing than Jordan. Rain Man was a beast-level dunker in the NBA and the founder of the violent power forward. Stoudemire was just a kindergarten player in front of him. The reason the Supersonics made it to the finals was because of the pick-and-roll with Gary Payton. In Payton's words, he only needed to throw the ball into the air, and then he would jump out of the crowd and put the ball into the basket.
Now that Yang Mo has inherited his beast-like explosive power, he is naturally even more powerful. Wade in his prime might still be able to catch up with Yang Mo, but now, with both legs overhauled, Wade can only look on in the distance. He watched Yang Mo pull away in two steps, easily snatch the ball before Cook, then run wildly to the front court, come one step outside the three-point line, and directly pull up for a jump shot... Swish!
A perfect three points.
In fact, this perfect three-pointer was based on a perfect steal.
If this happened in Miami, the whole stadium would have cheered and everyone would have been shouting "Super Yang!"
Obviously, the New York fans had not yet established this tacit understanding with Yang Mo. They were all screaming loudly and in a scattered manner, without any unity at all.
However, this three-pointer has already won Yang Mo some initial favor. At least they think: Wow, this guy doesn't look as bad as those basketball experts say. His steals and speed even surpass Dwyane Wade, and he also accurately hit a three-pointer from nearly eight feet away.
Facing the screams and shouts from the audience, Yang Mo just waved her hand instead of pricking up her ears to ask, "Are you guys having fun?" like she did in Miami.
After waving his hand, Yang Mo walked to Chris Duhon and whispered to him, "Just pay attention to Cook's three-pointer at the 45-degree angle on the left wing. Apart from being a little threatening in this area, he has no achievements."
Chris Duhon nodded. Although he was not completely submissive to the new boss, he was obedient. At least he didn't dare to do anything disobedient, because after years of wandering, he just wanted to find a place to settle down. He lived a comfortable life in New York and didn't want to leave. Therefore, he didn't want to offend anyone who could make him leave at any time.
Yang Mo ran back to the half court, and all the Heat players ran over quickly, but after coming over, they did not launch a fast break immediately, but instead kept the ball in stasis.
According to the Heat's configuration of players on the court, it was a typical fast break lineup. However, their fast break initiator Mario Chalmers was benched because he was not trusted, and the creator of this set of random tactics had already become an opponent, so they naturally could no longer play such a crazy fast break. They could only fall into the curse of positional offense in this incongruous way.
Spoelstra on the sidelines shook his head helplessly when he saw the basketball on the court being passed back and forth several times and finally handed to Dwyane Wade. He used to hate Yang Mo very much and wanted to clear him out of the team immediately, but when Yang Mo left, he couldn't help but miss Yang Mo deeply. Because when Yang Mo was there, he didn't have to worry about tactics at all. Although this guy was a little arrogant and a little arbitrary, he could really win with him! Last season, if it weren't for the series of injuries, it would really be possible to overturn the Eastern Conference champion. At that time, they had already played 2-0 away. Unfortunately... In the end, they failed, and the team fell apart with Mr. Pat Riley's buyout announcement.
In fact, Spoelstra is not the only one who misses the Heat of last season. The players on the court and the players on the bench all miss Yang Mo. With Yang Mo, they don't have to worry about morale issues at all, because there will always be someone who grits his teeth and carries the team to the end, and then creates a miracle. But now... before the game even starts, they have already surrendered, or they have never thought about winning.
"Have you been hiding your strength when you were in the Heat?" Wade faced Yang Mo with the ball. He was not in a hurry to attack, but asked Yang Mo a question.
"Do you think I have hidden strength?" Yang Mo frowned and asked back, his tone was full of anger. He didn't expect Wade to misunderstand that he didn't give his best in the past, which was absolutely an insult to him.
"Then why did your explosive power suddenly increase so much?" Wade did not directly answer Yang Mo's question, but continued to ask the second question. He still did not believe Yang Mo.
"None of your business." Yang Mo glared at Wade, all his anger pouring out, and at the same time, he quickly pressed forward, reaching out to steal the basketball from Wade's hand.
Yang Mo was coming at him aggressively, and Wade quickly turned around and tried to avoid Yang Mo's full-force pressure. But at the moment he turned around...bang! Yang Mo's body had already hit him at full speed, and he immediately staggered and fell out of the court at a low speed...poof!
Wade fell to the ground in a very embarrassed manner. At the same time, the referee quickly blew the whistle, indicating that Yang Mo had committed a defensive foul.
Regarding this foul, Yang Mo immediately stepped forward to argue: "Sir, I didn't use any unnecessary movements. I was stealing the ball very legally. This was just a normal collision."
Although Yang Mo's argument did not get a penalty from the referee, it at least made him understand that if the penalty continued like this, Yang Mo would definitely not accept it. Now, Yang Mo not only represents a super popular star, but also represents the Knicks. He is the leader of the Knicks. If he is given an unfair penalty, it will definitely be unfair to the entire New York. He does not have the confidence to make an enemy of the entire city.
In a sense, this is the privilege of the team leader, which is why the team leader always gets more free throws.
After Yang Mo finished his argument, Dwyane Wade also stood up in a panic. He was very dissatisfied with Yang Mo's defensive action, so he rushed to Yang Mo and asked fiercely: "Are you playing basketball or hitting people?"
When Wade stood in front of him like an enemy and threatened him, Yang Mo's mind went blank for a moment. In his heart, he still regarded Wade as a brother. Even though Wade had many misunderstandings about him, he always believed that misunderstandings could be clarified. However, now that Wade had said this, Yang Mo did not try to keep quiet. Instead, he stepped forward, pressed against his chest, stared at him with eyes wide open, and responded sternly: "No matter what, whether it's playing basketball or fighting, I will not lose to you. Tonight, let me tell you that I don't compete with you for the boss position, not because I can't compete with you, but because I give in to you."
Having said that, he turned his face away.
Wade's anger intensified after hearing this: "What are you so arrogant about, you little brat? I need you to give way to me? What the hell! In front of me, you are still just a rookie."
When Yang Mo said this tit-for-tat, a series of misunderstandings finally broke out, and the two finally became strangers and broke up publicly. Perhaps, it would be impossible for them to reconcile in the future.
After the ball was served again, Wade still decisively received the ball from outside the three-point line, and then took the initiative to attack Yang Mo, using all his skills. He kept changing his center of gravity and kept trying to break through. Although Yang Mo was a defensive stalwart, defense was originally a very passive thing compared to offense. In addition, Wade's offense was indeed unique in the NBA. In the end, he still saw the opportunity to get in and made a floater...Swish!
After Wade scored, Yang Mo did not feel annoyed at all. He quickly served the ball and led the whole team to run at an extremely fast speed. He ran to the front court and went straight to the penalty area, immediately attracting the defense of three Heat players. However, Chris Duhon was very smart and passed the ball to Gallinani next to him. Gallinani took the ball and shot... Swish!
Another three-pointer.
Seeing this, D'Antoni waved excitedly.
He originally thought that Yang Mo's sudden joining would disrupt the established tactics. Now, this concern can be completely dispelled. Although Yang Mo has left his mark on his tactics, it is at least a good mark.
Pat Riley, who was sitting behind the Heat bench, rubbed his face in pain. From the first ball Yang Mo stole, he was already regretting, endless regret. He didn't expect Yang Mo's physical fitness to not only not weaken but become stronger, and he didn't expect Yang Mo to still be so smart. He could always put his own stamp on the team's tactics in an instant, making the team's operation inseparable from him.
This is the dividing line between great players and first-class players. According to Yang Mo's current progress, it is not impossible for him to become a great player, at least more likely than Dwyane. Dwyane is destined to be just a strong finisher. He can only adapt to tactics or develop tactics around him. He has never been able to change tactics on his own and let the team always seize the initiative during the game.
Luckily we still have LeBron!
While Pat Riley was in pain and regret, he finally found a reason that could comfort him.
Yes, between LeBron James and Super Yang, any fool would choose LeBron . LeBron can bring the championship immediately, while Super Yang still needs some time to grow. He still has many areas that are not perfect, and he can't even pass the ball.
While Pat Riley was comforting himself in this way, Wade on the court went crazy. He kept challenging Yang Mo one-on-one. Although his success rate was very high with the support of the whole team, the Knicks were leading by ten points five minutes later.
drop!
Spoelstra had to call a timeout because every player on the Knicks scored and shot 100 percent.
At this time, the score between the two teams was 25:15. Wade scored 15 points, which was all for the Heat. The Knicks were evenly divided. Yang Mo, who was facing Wade, only scored three points, but anyone who watched the game knew what he did.
Back on the bench, all the players were very happy. Especially Harrington, who scored eight points in a row, six of which were scored by Yang Mo's screen, almost all of which were open jump shots and direct dunks. He excitedly pulled Yang Mo's hand and said excitedly: "I thought you would deprive me of my shots after you came, but I didn't expect it to make it easier to score. Great, you are the best and most selfless teammate I have ever seen."
Harrington was full of gratitude , and D'Antoni was also very happy. He originally thought that Yang Mo would set up a different tactic to isolate him, but he didn't expect that Yang Mo would fit into his tactics so perfectly and increase the power of the run-and-gun tactics. He was really very happy.
They were all very happy, but Yang Mo was not so happy. He knew better than anyone that the reason why they played so well tonight was purely because Miami was too weak. If they met a strong team, they would still be doomed. Yang Mo's goal was to win the championship, so he couldn't be happy with the little results in front of him.
But D'Antoni and others don't have such big ambitions. They just want to do better than last year.
If it was just a little better, why did Yang Mo come to New York?
At the same time, Yang Mo's TNT commentator also commented on Yang Mo's comeback.
"There is no doubt that Super Yang was unexpectedly good tonight. Although he only scored three points, he improved the entire Knicks team in all aspects. With him, the Knicks' offense was more relaxed, and almost every offense was open. The corresponding team is the Heat, with only Dwyane Wade left to support the team alone. The Heat will definitely not make the playoffs this year. The Knicks may replace him and enter the playoffs." Collins said.
"There is no doubt that Pat Riley made a stupid choice. He actually bought out Super Yang's rookie contract. Is there anything more fucked up than this? To be honest, the biggest significance of supporting me to continue watching this game now is to see how many points the Knicks led by Super Yang can slaughter the Heat." Charles Barkley also said this with certainty.
Only Kenny Smith remained silent. His image had long been fixed as a Yang hater. Although he wanted to praise Yang Mo, his mouth would not allow him to say such words, so he could only remain silent.
