You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 1085 Problem Exposure
The Timberwolves' starters are: Payton, Hamilton, James, Posey and O'Neal.

After Mo Mengchen came back, the Pistons' starting lineup remained unchanged.

With the opening jump ball, O'Neal relied on his experience to win the opening ball for the team in the last game of the season.

Payton didn't know the depth of Mo Mengchen, he was already 38 years old, and he was no longer Mo Mengchen's opponent.In his opinion, if Mo Mengchen wanted to, he could easily overwhelm his defense.

It was true for Mo Mengchen in a healthy state, but not now.

In order to attack smoothly, Payton still called O'Neal's pick-and-roll, and he rushed into the basket smoothly. Gerald remembered Mo Mengchen's instructions, hid outside the paint, and when the Timberwolves' outside line approached the penalty area, he immediately flew out and rewarded Gloves and a big cap.

etc.

Anthony knew that Mo Mengchen would not get too many points tonight, as long as he stood on the court, he could inspire his teammates, which was his value.

Therefore, he has to take on more than before.

Anthony ran over to catch the ball, and then charged the Timberwolves' defense.

James didn't expect him to play like this, and he was extremely surprised. He didn't keep up with his footsteps. Anthony ran into the basket and hit a throw.

2 is better than 0
This time it was James who dribbled the ball across half court himself, and he saw Anthony waiting for him in front of him.

He was a little puzzled, why not Mo Mengchen?He thought so not because he was arrogant, but because of the battle of Tianwang Mountain, he was repaired badly enough.

That game was enough to cast a shadow.

Mo Mengchen, who was playing against him, not only limited his personal scoring to 15 points, but also scored 53 points, plus a game-killing LOGO three-pointer.

With Mo Mengchen's temperament, he should continue to ask the coach for a matchup, why didn't he come to matchup tonight?
Is it because of Payton?

James also knows the grievances between Mo Mengchen and Payton, but is he a person who pays attention to grievances and does not understand the general situation?
James believes there are other reasons, and he doesn't think much about it right now. Although Anthony's defense is good, it is difficult to block his breakthrough.

James dribbled the ball and attacked the basket, facing Curry and wanted to end with a dunk, but was fouled by the opponent.

James made one free throw, missed two free throws, and the rebound bounced high. Both Curry and O'Neal at the basket wanted this rebound.

The two pushed each other hard, but neither could jump up, nor could they grab a rebound.

On the contrary, Mo Mengchen, who was caught by the outside line, sneaked in by taking a walk to put away the defensive rebound. The ball was all based on prediction. It needed speed but no speed, bounce or no bounce. He just predicted the position in advance and waited for James to make a shot.

Mo Mengchen didn't push to fight back, which made his opponent feel weird.

If he grabs a defensive rebound, he usually uses his speed to launch a fast break, but tonight was uncharacteristically.

"It's not right," Timberwolves coach Casey whispered.

Falling into a positional battle, Ginobili's European layup was interfered by O'Neal and missed. The Timberwolves' counterattack had just reached the frontcourt, and Anthony hit James' ball to the ground.

The referee decided that the Timberwolves had the ball.

Mo Mengchen felt a tingling pain on the soles of his feet, and he was not focused enough to defend the bottom line serve.

Hamilton's observation was meticulous. He found that Mo Mengchen's attention was not concentrated enough, so he passed the ball to O'Neill nearby.

He pretended to move to the left, but actually turned to the right. O’Neal’s body was a natural cover, Ginobili was thrown off the spot, and Mo Mengchen should have followed up to change defenses, but every time he moved, the pain from his right foot made him want to scream. With a sound, he failed to plug the gap and let the masked man catch the ball in the corner.

5 is better than 2
Hamilton saw the problem, and so did James.

"Looks like Dor.Mo isn't at his best?" Casey asked with a smile.

Not only is he not in the best condition, he is sleepwalking!

In the low position on the right, Anthony stuck James with his back. His body was as solid as a mountain, and the Chosen One couldn't do anything about it.

At this moment, the only thing Mo Mengchen could do was to throw the ball.

The moment Anthony got the ball, he already noticed that James was leaning sideways against his lumbar spine. This was undoubtedly a stupid defensive move, and no one with a strong back would miss this flaw.So, like a gray rabbit, he released all his strength to his hands, turned around and started, James' center of gravity was shaken, and he could only rely on his body to take risks.

Luckily for him, the referee didn't blow the whistle, but that's all he can do. This action can't stop Anthony from pouring into the penalty area, and O'Neal runs to block.

Anthony grabbed the ball and held it high, pressing down on the shark's arm like a god to score.

4 is better than 5
"Carmelo Anthony is on fire tonight!"

For the Lakers, James deliberately passed the ball to Payton to attack Mo Mengchen.

They had to see what was wrong with Mo Mengchen.

"It seems that your physical condition is not very good!" Peyton smiled sinisterly, "Let me take good care of you, you bastard!"

Mo Mengchen knew that it was hard to resist, he only hoped that Gerald behind him was ready to fight, otherwise, he really had to find a way to stop Peyton.

It's a trap, a simple trap.

Payton couldn't tell, it wasn't because of intellectual problems, but simply trusted James' judgment, chose to dribble and break through, and he easily passed the outside defense.

"Dor.Mo was broken through so easily?"

"This is Dor.Mo who was selected to the first defensive team of the year!"

"It's useless to be selected to the first defensive team in history!" Payton roared, "I'm going to kill you bastards!"

Glove rushed to the basket with great ambition, and he saw Curry blocked by O'Neal, and no one in the Pistons' penalty area could stop him.

When he made a layup, compared with the big and small sharks, Jedra, who is not an insider at all, flew out from the basket. He is not big, but the speed of the ball is extremely amazing, and he shoots the ball before it hits the backboard. fall.

In less than 3 minutes, Gerrard has sent two big caps.

Mo Mengchen still relied on anticipation to stand at the position where the basketball popped up, received the ball, and made a long pass to Ginobili to counterattack and score.

6 is better than 5
After this ball, James was not sure what happened to Mo Mengchen.

He seems to be inconvenient to move, but the defense just now is obviously a trap. Can it be counted as a trap to lure Peyton in?

Mo Mengchen dribbled the ball with his left hand and raised his right hand.

Looks like the hand-in-hand with Anthony just now?Peyton had some judgment in his heart, and saw Anthony running here.

He and James met eyes, and through their eyes, determined the battle plan, just waiting for Anthony to catch the ball.

Anthony started and ran past Mo Mengchen. He should receive the ball from Mo Mengchen's position.

As a result, he held his hands and ran past Mo Mengchen empty-handed. Peyton wanted to pinch Anthony too much, so he made a prediction in advance, but he didn't expect that this would be a way to double-team Anthony. At the moment he was about to double-team Anthony, Mo Mengchen luck The ball went past him.

With Mo Mengchen's current speed, can he dribble past others?
Hill's defense against Payton is simply "impressive."

Mo Mengchen's speed was extremely slow. Even if he had hidden well before, the speed of this dribble advance was enough to make people doubtful. He didn't go deep into the paint to challenge the Sharks, but scored from the perimeter.

8 is better than 5
This is also done to try to cover up his current extremely slow speed.

Mo Mengchen knew that he couldn't hide his question, and the current principle is to keep it hidden for as long as he can.

Hill off the court jokingly said: "After tonight, I'm going to clear Gary Payton from my personal list of the best defensive team in history."

Luo Er asked inexplicably: "Just because he can't guard Mo?"

Is it normal to be unstoppable?
"No."

Because the person who passed him to score a throw was not Dor. Mo, the number one point guard in NBA history, but Mo Mengchen, who only had one foot and could do his best. Wouldn't he feel ashamed?At this level, how can you be selected as the best defensive team in history?

At home, James confidently called the pick-and-roll to the basket.

The Pistons have always followed his defensive strategy, changing defenses every pick-and-roll, and killing him without double-teaming.

Playing away games, this defense method makes James uncomfortable, but it is different at home.

Even if he doesn't feel good on the outside, James can still dribble boldly and kill inside. Last time he drew a foul from Curry, but this time he drew a foul from Ginobili. Moreover, the Argentine's body is too thin, so the foul was not serious. He also threw the ball in.

James scored an extra penalty, 8 to 8.

Ginobili was so anxious that he went to the frontcourt and asked for the ball to call for a pick-and-roll to find James and insisted on hitting it back.

The consequence of impulsiveness is to ask for trouble. Ginobili can rely on rhythm changes as a defender, and can also rely on European steps and attacks, but for James, these are not effective.

The Argentine's European step into the basket was followed by the big hat by the little emperor.

The Timberwolves' counterattack was extremely fast, and Payton directly threw away Mo Mengchen.

This time, no matter how slow Mo Mengchen's opponent is, he should be able to tell. No matter what the reason is, Mo Mengchen is unable to move now, and he has lost his previous speed.

On the Pistons side, only Anthony returned to the defense. Payton first attacked to attract the defense, and then passed Hamilton back for a layup.

10 is better than 8
"Dor.Mo seems to have a leg injury?"

"Yeah, he's very resistant to running."

As soon as the words fell, the Pistons passed the ball to Curry.

Curry attacked from a low post, swayed his shoulders left and right, turned over and missed a jumper.

It was another counterattack from the Timberwolves. Ginobili went straight to the frontcourt and fouled for the second time, interrupting the opponent's fast break.

Because Ginobili had committed two fouls, Frauses replaced him with Prince.

"It seems that you really have a problem!"

Peyton's hatred for Mo Mengchen is no less than that of other people, but in recent years he has grown older, and Mo Mengchen is getting stronger and stronger, he can't do anything to him at all.

Now this situation is really rare.

Peyton saw the problem, and confronted Mo Mengchen head-on. He knocked away the 100-kilogram Mo Mengchen at once.

12 is better than 8
Payton started playing with confidence.
