Legendary star

Chapter 78 Conflict
In the second half of the first quarter, Meng Xu did not play again, but relying on the excellent performance of Avery Johnson and a group of substitute players, the Spurs led the Knicks by 27 points 24-3 and entered the second quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Popovich changed the team's tactics. When Ewing couldn't find the game state for a long time, Duncan sat on the bench in the second quarter and did not play. The core of the offense became Avery Johnson, and Meng Xu also returned to his familiar style of play.

David Robinson is on truce and Duncan rests off the court. As an important scoring point for the Spurs, whether Meng Xule is happy or not, he can only devote more energy to the offensive end, and Avery Johnson is also constantly passing the ball to Meng Xu. Looking at Popovich's "earnest" eyes on the sidelines, it was impossible for Meng Xu to paddle.

After using the enchanting potion in this game, Meng Xu's long-range shooting attribute has overflowed, reaching an astonishing 104.5, but Meng Xu's hand feeling in this game is not very good, and under the constant interference of Alan Houston's small movements, The 3-point shooting percentage in the second quarter was only 6 of 2 shots, and Meng Xu can avoid mid-range shots now. Counting from before the All-Star Game, Meng Xu has not made a shot in more than ten consecutive games Shot over mid-range.

"This is a player with very obvious advantages and disadvantages. His defense is very good. As Michaels said, he can already compete for the best defensive player of the season, whether it is against Houston or Sprewell. His defense is impeccable, and his 3-pointers are very good, and his shooting posture is very similar to Larry Bird, but the stability is not as good. His shortcoming is that the offensive method is too single. Not a single breakthrough, not even a mid-range shot." Kenny Smith talked eloquently in the live broadcast, commenting on rookies has always been one of Smith's hobbies.

"Alan, you're too slow." After throwing off Alan Houston again, Meng Xu taunted Alan Houston who was chasing him, but Meng Xu felt a little awkward after speaking, as if there was a song called Alan?
"Bastard" looked at Meng Xu who shook his head. For some reason, Alan Houston had a chill. This kid was moving too fast, especially when accelerating in a straight line. He couldn't keep up with all his strength. On him, he would often be able to throw himself away with a single acceleration. If he hadn't relied on his rich game experience, the scene would have been even uglier. It's the look on my face that I haven't tried my best.If he didn't keep it before, he would greet him with his fist, so that he would know why the flowers were so red. When he thought of the fist, Alan Houston's mood instantly improved again.

"Coach Jeff, I think you should change someone to defend me, at least don't let me throw the basketball so easily, don't you?" I don't know if he was too excited, Meng Xu spread his hands when he retreated , shouted at the livid Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy.

"Bastard, what are you talking about?" Little Fan Gandhi, who was used to this kind of scene, was still doing well, and Sprewell, who passed behind Meng Xu, was not happy at first, and rushed forward to make a move.

"A rookie dares to be arrogant in Madison." Although he was stopped by his teammates behind him, Sprewell continued to curse at Meng Xu.

"Meng, be careful, these guys are notoriously ruthless." Before the referee came over, Avery Johnson pulled Meng Xu away and reminded him by the way.Although Pat Riley, the soul of the New York gang, has gone to the Heat, the main players of that team are still there.Under the key care of the league, their hot temper and actions have been restrained a lot, but they still explode occasionally. In the series against the Heat last year, a group fight broke out between the two teams.

"Well, I know." Meng Xu also watched the match last year. If he didn't know about it, he would have thought it was a boxing match. Tiehan Mourning suffered a big loss in the hands of the aunt.

"Beep" as the whistle sounded, the referee blew Meng Xu's walk.In the attack just now, Sprewell was close to Meng Xu, his right hand was stuck on Meng Xu's waist, his left hand kept tearing Meng Xu's jersey, and his knee pressed against Meng Xu's calf from time to time. He almost hugged Meng Xu and fell to the ground.After Meng Xu received the ball, he was secretly pushed by Alan Houston, who came to double-team, and Meng Xu, who was pushed a staggeringly, inevitably walked away.

"You are as filthy as the sewers in New York." Meng Xu, who suffered a dark loss, cursed at Alan Houston and Sprewell behind him without flinching.

"Boy, go back to the NCAA. It's more suitable for you. This is an adult's game." Sprewell waved his fist and responded to Meng Xu. He was not Alan Houston.

"Old guy, how do you feel?" After returning to the defensive end, Meng Xu followed the same pattern and used Sprewell's little trick just now on him.

"Boy, are you tickling? You can't be stronger. Don't you have lunch?" After receiving the ball, Sprewell turned his back to Meng Xu and arched inward. Xu's strengths and weaknesses have already been exposed, his strength is weak, and he has basically no way to deal with back-ups. It's a godsend opportunity, no different from picking up points for nothing.

"Old guy, your back attack is far from your mouth." Although the strength is obviously not as good as Sprewell's, but relying on his keen grasp of timing, Meng Xu successfully defended against Sprewell's attack this time. Attacking, Sprewell stepped back a little as soon as he exerted force, and then took advantage of his unsteady footing, then pushed forward, pinched his waist by the way, and came down twice in a row, making Sprewell almost walk away step.

"It's almost 5 seconds, old guy." Just as Sprewell was about to continue to arch back, Meng Xu suddenly reminded him behind his back. As soon as Meng Xu finished speaking, Sprewell dropped the basketball It was passed on.

In order to prevent those players who are excellent in post-up singles from constantly arching and arching in the game, the NBA officially introduced a new rule of 5 seconds for post-ups this season. It was only after the basketball was passed that Sprewell realized that he had not To the stretch of the free throw line.

"fack, you brat."

"Thanks for your good teaching, old guy, remember to read clearly next time."
