You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 479 There is only one problem

Even if the Pistons don't speed up the pace, the Knicks can't stop their sprint on the field.

The Knicks' backcourt combination is Charlie Ward and Chris Childs, an outside combination of 188 cm + 191 cm, which continues the fine tradition of the Knicks' outside height.

What about the piston?Mo Mengchen + Houston, 197 cm + 201 cm, both have overwhelming advantages in height and athletic ability.

Falling into positional warfare, Mo Mengchen continued to play V-shaped attacks in order to increase the difficulty of the game.

Generally speaking, the same offensive routine can be played once or twice. If you play too much, it will make people think that he treats the opponent as an idiot. Even if the gap between NBA teams is large, it is impossible for you to play the same tactic continuously.

As a result, from the first round of the first quarter, as long as Mo Mengchen instigated the offense, it would definitely start with a V-shaped position, and most of them played a V-shaped offense.

There may be differences in some positions and passing the ball, but the same tactical routine is only made a small modification, but it is played from the start to being replaced over and over again. There is no other explanation except for wanting to tease the opponent.

"Dor.Mo played the same tactic from start to finish." Kenny Smith made this point.

Fans may not have noticed how serious this is.

We all like to say "I, I will never fall twice in the same place!" And the Pistons continue to ravage the Knicks in the same way, and the latter can't do anything about it, because the gap in strength is like this.

Even sadder, the opponent is humiliating you without you even realizing it.

Every time Hill succeeds in an attack, he will get fierce cheers, and the fans may love him more than Ewing.

Their attitude towards the visiting team continues to make people wonder if this is the Knicks' home court.

"Are you so popular?" Mo Mengchen asked.

"That's right?" Devil Mountain puffed out his chest narcissistically, confident in his popularity.

Hill is popular, and that's true.

In the 1995-1996 season, the popularity surpassed the comeback Jordan and became the league vote leader. It was only his second season and it was also Mo Mengchen's rookie season, but people like him for a reason.

At that time, Hill had just debuted, with a chic style of play, a refined and easy-going appearance, and a well-known Duke family. It can be said that he is a person with a halo, but after a few years, he has almost lost his reputation.

In the past two seasons, Hill's performance in the playoffs was not very good. Last season's Eastern Conference Finals was a scene of a large-scale withdrawal of fans. At the last moment, he made two free throws and one made Hill was hacked for the whole summer. It's dead.

Why are these New Yorkers so supportive of Hill?
Mo Mengchen thought about it seriously—by the way, there are still two years left on this guy's contract.

No, even for two years, the enthusiasm of this group of people is too much, right?Why not wait until next season for Hill to see their enthusiasm?
Mo Mengchen thought back and forth, but couldn't get a clear answer.

It's not good to ask this question here, so I can only hold it back for a while.

The game continued on the court, the Pistons were very flexible in substitutions, but the Knicks' employment was relatively rigid, and the main players basically had no time to rest. Except for Ewing, the other starters were ruthlessly manipulated by Van Gundy for a whole quarter regardless of the consequences.

Miraculously, without Ewing, the Knicks have more vitality and defense.

Ewing is no longer, the team does not need to open up space for him, Big Mom Johnson can get close to the basket, other outside players can run wantonly, and the future shot-blocking king Marcus Camby who replaced him has far more assist defense Ewing's influence, even blocking the Pistons' offense at the basket.

Dumars obviously didn't think that this young man was so shameless, and he gave hot pot as soon as he played.

Rashid is also excited, aiming at Camby, trying his best to get a position.

Dumars passes the ball.

After being angry, Tianzun raised the ball. Looking at his posture, Camby thought it would be a rough back impact, but he didn't expect Rashid to disdain to score in a simple way, and rubbed a hook on Camby's body. hand hit.

"How the hell are you defending my hook?" Rasheed yelled roughly.

Rasheed's strength, Camby's weakness, and the style of the two insiders are clearly displayed on the court.

In the second quarter, Rasheed violently pushed Camby angrily because of his failure to block.

"here we go again."

Mo Mengchen took off the towel hanging from his shoulder and put it on the bench.

Westphal had no choice but to make a substitution.

Mo Mengchen, Hill, Jerome Williams replaced Rasheed, Dumars and Ricky Davis.

"Do you want to be suspended so much?"

After leaving the field, Rashid heard Westphal's questioning.

In Westphal's view, the technical foul just now was completely unnecessary.

Then again, Rashid has had so many technical fouls, which one is "necessary"?

Mo Mengchen tried to read Rashid's various behaviors on the court, which was a difficult task.

First of all, he wants to make it clear that Rashid is not the kind of aggressive character we think.

He's not an idiot, he's not an idiot, he's not an impulsive fool, and sometimes technical fouls are just a way for him to play tricks on his opponents.

Just like when we deal with those opponents who feel hot, the rough ones will make a strong foul, and the gentle ones will ask the coach to call a timeout to interrupt his rhythm-most coaches don't need players to remind them.

And Rashid had just failed with Cambica, and his reaction was "pushing people in anger".

The node where this foul appears is interesting.

Because before this, Rashid was very calm, or in other words, very normal. He had no basis for going crazy. None of his opponents did anything to embarrass him, and the referee's punishment was basically fair.

So what is he doing it for?
In the next 2 minutes, Camby wandered off the court, and the defensive end always leaked the penalty area to the opponent in order to block shots. Mo Mengchen and the others took this opportunity to score in the penalty area again and again.

The point difference widened to 2 points in 16 minutes.

The scoring speed of the Pistons is terrifying. If you don't pay attention, the game will be over.

With the Knicks' personnel structure, Van Gundy can't expect these guys to recover points in the second half. Therefore, they can only try their best to narrow the point difference in the first half.

However, there are some people who like to poke other people's dreams the most.

Mo Mengchen suddenly concentrated, dribbled the ball halfway, Hill approached, made a pick-and-roll, and then the Devil Mountain moved aside, and the storm fell.

Mo Mengchen's first three-pointer after coming on the court, hit.

19 points difference.

Van Gundy didn't realize the situation was about to spiral out of control.

The Knicks organized the offense steadily and played tactics in a serious manner.

Ewing slammed low, successfully knocked Scott Pollard away, and then, with a backhand hook, made a beautiful hook.

In the front court, the ball is delivered to Hill.

Devil Mountain cut through New York's outer defense line like lightning, causing chaos in the situation, and gave the ball to Mo Mengchen.

Outside the three-point line on the left, the bored Mo Mengchen didn't take the pass seriously at all. He held the ball up with his left hand and shot a 45-degree three-pointer from the left.

Again!

There was a wave of exclamation at the scene. Mo Mengchen turned the game into a performance moment with a three-pointer. Van Gundy opened his mouth and didn't know how to react.

Charlie Ward's defense is definitely doing his best, and if he can't defend it, he can't defend it.

The Pistons' screens and pick-and-rolls for Mo Mengchen were second to none, and Ward couldn't entangle Mo Mengchen under such protection.

"Jeff, I have a suggestion for you, let Patrick guard me."

Mo Mengchen approached Van Gundy and teased him.

Van Gundy rolled his eyes angrily.

In fact, Mo Mengchen had no problem with Van Gundy. He was most active during the Rockets period. Because of Yao Huang, the Rockets received unprecedented attention in China. Van Gundy's strengths and weaknesses were also clearly analyzed by domestic fans.

For Yao Huang, Van Gundy can be said to have done everything a coach should do.

Control Yao Huang's playing time and suggest that Yao Huang gain weight, making the latter a historical low-post killer. The subsequent injuries are force majeure, because Adelman does not "pity" Yao Huang like Van Gundy.

And now, Van Gundy can't do anything about the deteriorating game.

It was too fast, in less than 1 minute, the point difference had broken through 20 points.

"I just have one question." Kenny Smith asked boldly. "Is there a team that can beat the Pistons?"
