basketball never sleeps

Chapter 143 A True Fighter Doesn't Worry About Momentary Success or Failure
In the second game of his comeback, he faced this kind of hard-to-hard defense. Putting it on other players may be the beginning of torture.

But for Artest, this level of offensive and defensive duel-ganggang is good.

Basketball should be played like this.

Artest's eyes were full of fighting spirit, he adjusted the position of his feet, and rushed towards Mo Wen again like an excited bull.

Mo Wen's expression did not change, he did not wait for Artest to charge up, but took the initiative to bully himself forward to find a confrontation.

A physical attribute close to 80 points is still enough for him to do some overloaded work when he is physically strong.

Another muffled sound.

The pain pulled the facial muscles of the two, but this time the two who suffered from the pain did not back away again.

After all, he has been away from the court for too long. Although Artest's physical condition has not declined much, he is not as sharp as last season in terms of offensive and defensive details.

Roughness in technology led Artest to use more physical advantages to open up the situation, but Mo Wen is not the "behind the scenes" who needed to make up for his physical insufficiency last year.

His weight doesn't lie. Artest has been idle for half a year. Even though he has lost a lot through training, he is still more than ten kilograms heavier than Mo Wen, who lost 95 kilograms.

"You are mine, don't try to escape!"

Artest put his hands on his hips, and the excitement on his face did not change because he failed to defend the ball.

Ao Pang caught the basketball and raised it high. After the Pacers returned to defense, he passed the ball safely to Mo Wen.

His body twisted in the air like a fallen leaf, showing the peerless waist strength he had trained under Catherine's guidance.

But the ecology of the paint area is different from that of the outside line. In Times Square in Manhattan, you will be watched by patrols if you carry a gun clip, but in the alleys of the slums in Detroit, no one will control you when you play with a heavy machine gun.

"Mo directly pressed before dribbling...be careful, Artest tried to steal, but fortunately, Mo dodged, but Artest was responsible for his reckless stretching out, and Mo Wen turned around and directly lost the defense Location."

From beginning to end, it's all messed up.

No time to think about it, Wade grabbed the basketball and took a big step at the free throw line, jumped high and dunked vigorously.

boom! ! !
This dunk was like an electric spark, instantly igniting the gas stove in the American Airlines Arena.

But it is a very happy thing to have someone to share with.

Seeing Artest's smile, Mo Wen just raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

On the court, Rasul, who received the ball in an open corner, made a small jump and steadily scored a three-pointer.

In a hurry, he intended to bully and force Mo Wen to shoot.

Artest didn't expect to be caught by Mo Wen with just a small opening, so he could only grit his teeth and fight, trying to hit the Savior at the last moment.

A real fighter is not obsessed with momentary success or failure.

But the strange thing is, if you don't look carefully, Mo Wen's dribble looks quite stable.

The moment Wade opened the distance, the ball also appeared beside him.

As the least scoring existence among the Heat's Big Three, most people will not pay too much attention to Mo Wen's scoring, but focus more on his assists and connection with the team
But after a thorough study of the Heat, Carlisle discovered that the key to the Pacers winning this series is whether they can complete the blockade of Mo Wen.

Especially Mo Wen, the defensive pressure brought by Wade and Ao Pang was already great, and if Mo Wen played comfortably, he would not be able to play.

Artest failed to feel the expected collision. When his body was inclined to roll, his ankle was forced to move sideways to maintain balance.

Artest didn't look nervous at all, and there was a hint of bloodthirsty in his excited smile, as if he had seen himself guarding against Mo Wen.

However, it doesn't matter anymore.

Noticing Artest's uncoordinated dribbling in the confrontation, Mo Wen decisively dodged and evacuated the bench after the third confrontation.

Although he was not convinced, he knew that Mo Wen's average of 2.7 steals per game could not be faked. If a small man with a low center of gravity or a guard with a strong dribble would be fine, big players would dribble in front of Mo Wen for a long time. Looking for confrontation is sending steals.

Turning around, the Pacers pushed again.

Seeing that Artest couldn't bear to take the initiative to attack, Mo Wen also moved, and saw that he raised his hands behind his back, lowered his body and dribbled the ball at low altitude simultaneously.

Slowly waiting for the Heat players to finish positioning, Mo Wen actually didn't think about the idea of ​​hard steel Artest's defense, called a pick and roll, and was about to call Tinsley, who played the Pacers.

Do you insist on defending him, or deploy defense against him?

The loud shouts of the DJ on the scene added a fierce fire to the fiery atmosphere of the scene.

Grasping the gap where Artest lost his hand, Mo Wen used the back of his feet as the axis, and spun a small top to shake off Artest, and then drilled inside.

Carlisle cheered up on the sidelines. Artest's two offenses were rough, but it was also expected by him. It doesn't matter if the offense is frustrated. Next, the team's defensive performance is the top priority. As soon as Ster came back, he was put on the starting lineup.

In the original history, at any rate, Artest punched "bullying the weak and fearing the hard", demonstrating and proving his strength.

"Mo Wen broke into the inside line. The Pacers should pay attention to the inside line. Is he going to play to the end? Layup... Hey, basketball, I buy it, why is the ball in Rasul's hands, the director was deceived ! Rasul wide open, where is his defender?"

Xiao Ao glanced at Artest, but he didn't blame him for this ball.

The morale of the Heat has also improved visibly.

It wasn't that they were cowardly, the main reason was that everyone didn't expect Artest to be so stunned, and he moved the heavy weapon out after only a few rounds.

dong dong dong-

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief to regain his balance, the basketball that was under his hands had disappeared.

Mo Wen dribbled the ball under the crotch outside the three-point line, shaking his center of gravity from side to side. Although he was playing singles, his eyes did not just stay on Artest in front of him, but scanned the positions of the players of the two teams from left to right. .

When Wade saw Artest entangled with Mo Wen, he had already adjusted his position to prepare for the fast break.

Basketball may lack exercise from a long suspension, but elbows won't.

Without waiting for Mo Wen to give orders, the other Heat players except Ao Pang rushed forward.

After learning from the pain, during the suspension period, he focused on boxing and fighting in addition to running around for concerts and traveling.

Everyone was watching Mo Wen who was holding the ball, wanting to see how he would handle the ball.

Even more exuberant with the pain in the chest.

"Don't let everyone down, Ron."

Because whether it is O'Pang or Wade, they scored through talent crushing.Their talented play style is doomed to be unable to complete the restriction through single defense.

After the ball came into Artest's hands again, he dribbled two steps and pretended to pass the ball, regardless of whether he cheated or not, he broke through to Mo Wen's side again.

Jackson's physical fitness is good, but it is not enough to look at the young Wade.

"Looking at the ball, how does Mo Wen choose? Hey, he signaled for his teammates to pull away. Is he going to play singles?"

Artest ran over Mo Wen and ran to the basket.

The landing point of the basketball and the trajectory of forward and backward when it bounces are also quite messy.

Therefore, if you want to reduce the Heat's total score, you can only find a way from other people.

In order to prevent Mo Wen from attracting help defenses and then quickly throwing the ball to others, he can only use a single defense strategy.

Artest also took out his stunt, elbowing his way around the pick-and-roll.

Artest, who had successfully advanced, found an embarrassing problem before he had time to be proud. There were people from the Heat in all directions.

But now, he was doused, beaten, fined, and suspended.

Although the falling and bouncing of the basketball are controlled at the same height, there is no pattern at all from the sound and rhythm of the dribble. .

This time, Artest didn't go for a direct confrontation after being teased by Mo Wen once, so Mo Wen couldn't sneak away by adjusting the unloading posture in advance, and could only fight against interference while moving, trying to stop him from moving forward .

Mo Wen didn't look for cover anymore, and let his teammates bear the undue damage for him.

Tinsley's performance in the regular season is not bad. This season, he can average 15.5+6.5 per game. The defensive end is also remarkable among small guards. The defensive efficiency per 102 rounds is 9, which is [-]% higher than that of the league. All outside players are strong, but in the playoffs, his scoring was halved, and his defensive contribution was close to zero.

Mo Wen, who was holding the ball from beyond the three-point line, made a gesture of pulling away for his teammates.

After falling into position again, Tinsley tried his personal attack to no avail, then took out another set of tactics and led the team to run tactics again.

Artest finally couldn't help trying to reach out to steal the ball, but Mo Wen just moved his fingers slightly and moved the basketball away.

Under Mo Wen's "normal interference", Artest's shot collapsed and flew out without accident.

Sharing the spotlight and honor together, although it makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

"The classic counter-attack fast break dunk, from our favorite outside duo, let us shout their names - Mo & Wade!!"

After the Palace of Auburn Hills battle, the league's public relations erased the video of him hammering fans, but kept the scene where Milicic knocked him out with two punches.

Artest is a person who knows his mistakes and can correct them, but the premise is that you have to let him prove that he is really wrong.

With the help of a pair of vigorous elbows, Artest is extremely efficient around the pick-and-roll.

The commentary on the sidelines was like a machine gun, and few people could hear what he was talking about, but the atmosphere was set in place.

"It may be a bit difficult to completely block Mo... but at least his personal offense must be restricted as much as possible so that the Pacers can pass the test."

And scientific experiments have also proved that pain is beneficial to IQ.

In the next few minutes of the first quarter, Mo Wen and Artest faced each other for a few more rounds, and he could feel that Artest's defensive state had recovered a lot.

It's not that the data is retrieved, but that his defensive sense of smell and defensive prediction have gradually entered the state.

Although the Heat took an 8-point lead under the leadership of Mo Wen in the first quarter, the Heat players did not feel so relaxed during the rest.
