Chapter 48 Shooting Paranoia

"Boy, do you think you can stop me with those dirty moves? Don't dream, you little rookie." Facing the jumping Meng Xu, Anthony Walker hit a 3-pointer and looked at Meng Xu with disdain. .

Since Meng Xu's little tricks made him feel bad for two consecutive back-up singles, Anthony Walker gave up his plan to use his body to force Meng Xu, but used his height and jumping to start shooting in the middle and long distances.

"Hehe, that's right, Fatty, so the game is interesting." After replying to Anthony Walker, a smile appeared on the corner of Meng Xu's mouth. Although the feeling of being raped was not good, Meng Xu's I feel really good.Anthony Walker's mid-range and long-range shooting percentage has not been high, especially 3-point shooting. In the previous games of this season, his shooting percentage was even less than 30%. It is also Popovich who forced Anthony Walker to shoot outside. This game is one of the defensive tasks formulated by Meng Xu.

On the offensive end, Meng Xu once again got rid of Anthony Walker's defense. After receiving a pass from Antonio Denny, facing Pierce who was supplementing the defense, Meng Xu lobbed the ball to Tim Duncan inside, with his back to Vita Duncan of Li Potapanko, after holding the ball, made a sudden effort and leaned heavily on Vitaly Potapanko. Under the pressure of Duncan, Vitaly Potapanko directly Taking a step back, Duncan turned around and hung on the basket.

"Anthony is too restless. Larry is right. Anthony will never be the next Larry Bird." The cardinal in the box watched Anthony Walker hit the iron again from beyond the 3-point line on the court. The bishop shook his head and said.

"Teacher, let's go, this game looks like we're going to lose again." Bill Russell on the side stretched out his hand to support the cardinal's arm.Since the Celtics captain Lewis died suddenly during training in 1993, and the talented player Bias, who was selected by the team before, died of poisoning, the nearly 80-year-old cardinal left Kyle. The Tetman, in his own words, is "I've lost my motivation to work."

A few years ago, the cardinal was diagnosed with a heart attack again. The doctor warned his relatives not to go to watch the basketball game anymore, but the cardinal insisted on coming to this game today. In order to prevent accidents, the doctors and nurses stayed in the Box door.And after seeing that the little guy Bird said most resembled him was not that good, and the team had no hope of winning, Bill Russell also persuaded the Cardinal to leave the court.

"Stop trying to persuade me. Now that you're here, let's watch the game." The cardinal waved his hand, continued to stick his cane, and looked towards the court.The Cardinal’s current mood is very complicated. Seeing the invincible overlord he created with his own hands, constantly falling, the Cardinal’s heart is bleeding. After Lewis’s sudden death, the Cardinal felt that his love for basketball His heart was already dead, but after hearing what Larry Bird said, the Cardinal knew that he still loves basketball, and he still loves this team very much. That kind of love is unforgettable and unforgettable.

After Meng Xu made a pick-and-roll with Antonio Danny, he received a pass from Antonio Danny again within the 3-point line.

Anthony Walker appeared in front of Meng Xu panting heavily. Taking advantage of Anthony Walker being one step away from him, Meng Xu immediately lowered his knees and made a jumping shot.

Seeing that Meng Xu wanted to make a move, Anthony Walker jumped up without hesitation, ready to block Meng Xu.

"Fack." After Anthony Walker took off, Meng Xu, who was supposed to jump up, stretched his body, shook the basketball, squatted down again, and then jumped up lightly, throwing the basketball in his hand. go out

When Meng Xu took off and rose, Anthony Walker had already fallen. Not only that, this damn guy also slammed into himself fiercely the moment he shot.Anthony Walker, who was furious, slapped Meng Xu's arm directly.

"The ball actually went in." Meng Xu, who was sitting on the ground, was also a little surprised when he saw the basketball go in after two rounds around the rim. Meng Xu knew best how his mid-range shot was. It was because Meng Xu didn't have the confidence to make the shot just now that he wanted to foul Anthony Walker. He didn't expect this shot to go in.

As the whistle sounded, Anthony Walker looked at Meng Xu fiercely with a dark face. This guy actually hit himself with a 2+1.
"Meng, you did a great job." The assistant coach applauded Meng Xu loudly from the sidelines, and Popovich also clapped his hands towards the court.It’s just that after Meng Xu missed a free throw, Popovich became a little uneasy again, and even frowned. Meng Xu’s 3-point shooting percentage this season has reached 40%, which can be said to be comparable to the top pitchers in the league. Not bad in comparison, but his mid-range shots and free throws are criticized. A player who made more than 3% of his 4-pointers made only 30% of his mid-range shots. Less than 1 time, but the hit rate is only 60%, which is worse than Tim Duncan and David Robinson, not like an outside player at all.

Seeing Anthony Walker constantly hitting the iron on the field, Rick Pitino on the bench was not calm, and immediately called a timeout. In the second quarter, Anthony Walker made 2 shots from outside the 3-point line and only hit one. The ball, the rest are all iron, and the Celtics are currently 4 to 40, 29 points behind the Spurs.

After the timeout, the Celtics replaced Anthony Walker and replaced him with another Larry Bird successor, Eric Williams. Contrary to Anthony Walker, Eric Williams is not good at it and does not like it. Shoots 3 points, but likes to break through the inside and shoot mid-range shots. He used to be a fierce man flying around in the sky, but suffered an injury in the third season of his career, and then fell from the sky to the ground. Most of all, his physical fitness is not as good as before, but he still has one shot in the hand.

After Anthony Walker left the court, the core of the Celtics became Paul Pierce, with various offensive methods. Pierce, who is known as the offensive textbook, played Jalen Jackson in singles. He was taller and stronger than him. , even faster.

After Pierce scored 6 points in a row, Popovich called a timeout, replaced Mario Alley, and switched positions with Meng Xu, letting Meng Xu defend Pierce.

"This little guy is good." Seeing Pierce's performance on the field, Bill Russell in the box also showed a hint of appreciation.

The cardinal on the side also nodded in agreement.

　I was able to drop the favorite just now, my heart was instantly chilled
