Chapter 88: Is this high enough?
Miles took off his jersey and ran onto the court, immediately drawing cheers from the fans. But at this moment, Spoelstra also made a substitution, replacing Joe Anthony because Marion gestured to him, indicating that he was not strong enough.
Due to Joe Anthony's appearance, Yang Mo moved to power forward and was once again out of position with Garnett.
This made Garnett a little unhappy, as if he had punched cotton.
Yang Mo's mentality was very good. He was not in a hurry to face Garnett head-on, but he also knew that there would be a chance to face him tonight. Now, let's use the other Celtics players to practice leveling up. In any game, the boss is the last to fight.
Yang Mo used Miles as a tool to kill monsters and gain experience, but Miles regarded Yang Mo as a stepping stone to his own promotion. He was determined to get a rotation player position. He didn't want to take the minimum salary anymore, and he wanted to get a big contract.
Both sides have their own goals, and they are very clear. Therefore, this is bound to be a very fierce confrontation. At least it will not be like Glen Davis, who retreated before the fight even started.
Swish!
Pierce's first shot was accurate. This guy who claimed to be the best basketball player in the NBA after winning the championship did have the capital to be arrogant. But he really had not yet reached the position of the best player in the NBA as he said, so the second free throw... Bang!
Basketball missed shots.
Yang Mo was holding onto Miles who was trying to grab the rebound, so Miles couldn't jump at all. So even though he was known for his amazing jumping speed, he had no room to show his skills. He could only watch the guy who was half a head shorter than him grab the rebound easily.
This is it, one force can defeat ten skills!
After Yang Mo grabbed the rebound, he threw the ball to Dwyane Wade without stopping. Dwyane Wade broke through the paint with the ball and caused Tony Allen to foul. The foul was exactly the same as Pierce's, and the location was also one step inside the paint. The only difference from Paul Pierce was that Wade threw the ball out when he heard the whistle, and it went in, so it was a 2+1 without a doubt.
When Dwyane Wade stepped onto the free throw line, Yang Mo was ready to grab the rebound immediately, so he leaned against Myers, ready to rush at any time. This was not because he did not trust Wade's free throws, but because he was eager for every frontcourt rebound.
Miles was squeezed by Yang Mo and felt very uncomfortable. Although his body was no longer as slim as it was in the past, it was a little bloated. However, the fat did not add any strength to him. Instead, it was a heavy burden, which greatly reduced his flexibility, jumping ability, and jumping speed. However, even with the weakening, he was still better than Yang Mo in these abilities. After all, he was a black man, and these things were their racial talents. God took away their IQ, but he always gave them some extra subsidies in other aspects.
"Are you a GAY? Why are you so clinging to me?" Miles said angrily.
"Nothing!" Yang Mo smiled slightly. Just at this moment, Dwyane Wade on the free throw line shot the basketball. Yang Mo took advantage of Miles' inattention, turned around quickly, and blocked him behind him.
Bang!
The basketball actually didn't hit the target accurately, but hit the basket instead and bounced towards Yang Mo.
Seeing the basketball flying towards him, Yang Mo quickly pushed Miles away from behind him, lifted the basketball slightly, and took it off with his long arms. As soon as Yang Mo took off the basketball, Miles, who was pushed away, actively came up and got ready to block Yang Mo from behind.
Yang Mo shrugged his shoulders and pointed his toes upwards, and Miles immediately jumped up.
Seeing Miles being fooled, Yang Mo jumped up and threw the ball quickly... But when he threw the basketball, he immediately felt something was wrong. A dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him. The basketball had already flown to a very high position, but... Snap! A big hand still unscrupulously pressed the basketball hard on the backboard and then grabbed it directly .
Horrible catch!
Massive cheers instantly rang out at the scene, and the DJ even shouted in a long voice: KG...!!!
There is no doubt that the person who completed this horrific catch was Kevin Garnett. He was indeed the only one in the entire Celtics who could do this. After all, it was said that he could catch a coin on the edge of the backboard.
drop!
Just when Yang Mo was feeling a little disappointed, the referee blew the whistle, indicating that the horrible block was an interference shot. In other words, the goal was valid.
Yang Mo was naturally happy about this penalty, after all, it meant that he had added two more points to his stats, but he was not so happy because the basketball still did not enter the basket, but was taken away by someone. But there was nothing he could do about it, because he was tall and had a good bounce, and this was an objective fact.
Kevin Garnett did not protest when he learned that the block was called a foul. To him, a foul was the highest level of block. So, he turned his head and arrogantly taught Yang Mo a lesson: "Rookie, the inside is a stage for tall people. You should just shoot three-pointers from outside."
"Don't be complacent, old bird. I just got two points and a frontcourt rebound in your restricted area." Yang Mo was no less slouch in trash talk: "You said this to me as if I fucked your dream girl, but you said, hey, man, I've loved her longer than you. Is that interesting? Didn't I fuck your dream girl?"
"You..." Kevin Garnett's face turned red due to Yang Mo's trash talk. He almost couldn't hold back and wanted to use his fist to teach Yang Mo a lesson.
Yang Mo was too lazy to continue talking to him, and ran back to the half court with his head held high with the pride of a winner.
In the first head-to-head confrontation between the two, KG won in face, but Yang Mo won in substance.
Back in the half court, Myers, who had two consecutive rebounds snatched by Yang Mo, immediately reached out for the ball. He is known as the little KG, but his back-to-the-basket singles are very bad, so he could only wait for his opportunity near the free throw line.
Yang Mo didn't defend him closely, allowing him to get the ball easily.
Rondo didn't want to pass the ball to him at first, but seeing that he was so active and there was an open space, he had to pass the ball to him.
Miles took the basketball and broke through the restricted area without any hesitation. Yang Mo kept close to him but did not exert any strength, giving him the illusion that he could easily break through.
After luring Miles into the restricted area by digging a hole all the way, Miles saw that the time was almost right. He was ready to rush forward to knock Yang Mo away and then suddenly dunk, but... just as he was about to rush forward, Yang Mo suddenly exerted force, and the two collided. The huge reaction force instantly squeezed Miles back repeatedly, and he almost lost the basketball.
Miles was pushed back two steps by Yang Mo, and immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap, and it was impossible for him to dunk. But it was impossible for him to pass the ball like this, and he was still thinking about performing well to win more time and a bigger contract.
So, he jumped up decisively, used the two steps that were pushed away as a buffer, and made a jump shot!
But as soon as he jumped, Yang Mo jumped up quickly. Although Yang Mo's jumping ability was not as good as his, his arm span was better than his, and most importantly, Yang Mo had a very good grasp of the timing. As soon as he jumped to the highest point, he had to shoot the basketball.
Watching Yang Mo soaring into the sky, Miles could only grit his teeth and throw the basketball...but as soon as he threw it...bang!
Yang Mo slammed the basketball hard, using all his strength, and the basketball bounced back quickly... bang!
It hit Miles' head hard, then bounced out of bounds at an incredible speed and landed on the spectator in the ninth row.
One can imagine how abnormal Yang Mo's power is, and one can also imagine how much power poor Miles has to endure.
drop!
The referee blew the whistle, the basketball touched the Celtics player's body and went out of bounds, the ball passed, and it was Miami's ball!
As soon as the referee blew the whistle, Myers, who was hit hard, felt dizzy and fell to the ground. Seeing this, his teammate Tony Allen quickly called the team doctor.
At the same time, Yang Mo smiled at Kevin Garnett next to him and said, "Is this inside player tall enough?"
