Chapter 913 Why did you let a crippled person guard against me?(1/2)
This was a fierce game. At halftime, the Kings were only 8 points behind the Pistons in a good state with the powerful firepower output of McGrady and Nowitzki.
But Doug Collins was not satisfied, especially with the team's best defender, Bruce Bowen's defense.
Under his defense, Mo Mengchen scored 25 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in the first half.
"Do you want him to get 50 points?!" After entering the locker room, Collins roared at Bowen.
His attitude was as fierce as a beast. McGrady and others had never seen Collins show such a face. For Bowen, this was just another hypocritical head coach who took off his mask. He had long been used to the gentle coach tearing up the disguise in the locker room that outsiders could not see.
Collins is not the first coach to turn against him, nor is it the last one.
"His shots are very accurate. I want to drive him into the inside, but we don't have enough ability to protect the basket." What Bowen wants to say is that it is unrealistic to rely on him to defend Dor.Mo alone.
Collins's face became increasingly ugly: "Are you shirking responsibility?"
Bowen didn't answer.
Collins looked gloomy and everyone looked at him in shock and heard him say, "We all know how Gilbert Arenas fell."
Let the team thugs destroy their opponents' top cards, this is something that only happened in the NBA in the 1970s and 1980s.
Since the merger of the NBA and ABA, Stern, a hero who is determined to push the NBA from the United States to the world, has come to power, just like the NFL's executors in charge of fighting, and has not found his place in the league that is increasingly focusing on speed and skills.
Even players like Bowen, who are famous for their black feet and dirty hands, rely on their strong defensive skills.
Every player here did not expect Collins to issue this order to Bowen in a dignified manner.
You know, although this is the Kings' home locker room, there are many people and the players may not be informed one after another, but who can guarantee that the coaching staff or other staff present will not leak the news?
Moreover, Collins actually instructed Bowen to destroy Dor.Mo?
Could it be that Arenas was instructed to be under the slightest?
McGrady, Nowitzki and Kassel had their own thoughts, and Collins also found that this sentence was inappropriate. Seeing everyone's faces low, he cleared his throat and said, "Of course, I don't advocate violence to solve problems."
Hypocritical asshole.
Ten minutes passed, and the Kings' half-time meeting ended. They first had to return to the court to shoot and find the touch.
On the way to the player's passage, Divac came to Bowen and said, "Bruce, you'd better not attack Dor.Mo."
Bao Wen was up and down, and he didn't know what to do.
He has done something before, but everyone has seen it.
Dor.Mo was unharmed, but he was humiliated again and again. It was too dangerous to do so.
"Why?" asked Bowen, "You want me to disobey the coach's order?"
"Man, I want to talk to you in my heart." The Serbs hoped that Bowen would put away this temptation.
Bowen said: "You said."
Divac walked onto the field with him.
"This matter will definitely leak the news."
"No matter what the path is, there is no indestructible fortress in the world, and our fortress is not very strong." Divac said self-deprecatingly, "Think about it, what is Dor.Mo's status? How high is the ratings of this game? If you accept the coach's gesture to him, how will the league react? How will the outside world react?"
Bowen was frightened when he heard it.
"Let's take a step back, even if you really want to start, are you sure you can succeed?" Divac's tone had a hint of anxiety besides advice, "That's Dor.Mo!"
Their eyes moved to the opposite side together, and Mo Mengchen was shooting in the arc.
64 to 56
This is the half-time score, with the Pistons taking the lead in the away game and taking every step forward.
As the referee whistle sounded, the second half began.
The Kings who won the ball at the beginning gave the Pistons the opening ball at the second and third quarters.
Mo Mengchen took Curry's pass and reminded: "Remember the coach's instructions and don't get angry, that's exactly the reaction Europeans want to see."
Curry nodded, his emotional control tonight was OK, he had only 2 fouls in the half, and his personal data was 8 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
Every assist he used his body as a cover to cooperate with Mo Mengchen. In the first half, Mo Mengchen felt hot, and every time he borrowed his body to cooperate with him, he entered.
Mo Mengchen dribbled in the frontcourt, and Bowen paid attention to Curry's position.
In the first half, Mo Mengchen and Curry played many times, and Bowen was very sensitive by them. Bowen, who could not concentrate on Mo Mengchen, did not realize that the opponent was ready to shoot.
When Bao Wen realized, Mo Mengchen's ball had already been raised to his chest and then to his head. He stepped forward, but the ball had already taken the ball.
"Is this your defense?"
"Swish!"
67 to 56
Mo Mengchen's personal score 28.
"Why are you selected as the No. 1 defensive lineup of the year?" Mo Mengchen asked sarcastically.
Bowen, who squeezed out Payton and was selected as the first defensive lineup of the year, was so questioned by Mo Mengchen that he couldn't stand it. He took the initiative to step forward and prepared to engage in a large-scale confrontation.
His confrontation happened to follow Mo Mengchen's wishes.
Bowen's defense is not against the ball. He is short and thin, and his physical fitness is just generally inferior. He does not have the excellent bounce and speed of Scott Pipen and the arms of the super Gibbon, nor does Ben Wallace have the strongest body like a big chimpanzee. However, he faces the elite players in the league every night, the guys who jump the highest, run the fastest, have the hardest knees, the hardest elbows, the thickest arms, and the helplessness.
And what he relies on is nothing more than insidiousness and cunning, or cleverness and wisdom and strategy.
A real assassin is unsure of facing the enemy head-on, but can use various tricks to kill enemies who are stronger than themselves.
The angry Bowen is not the terrifying assassin.
At this time, the battle in the inside became fierce. Bowen was addicted to confrontation and had no idea how to help the team's offense. McGrady passed the ball to the inside.
At this time, the Serbian hit Curry's stomach with an elbow, and took the ball and pushed it over.
Curry retreated, completely ignoring his dark elbow, and was like a warrior defending his homeland, sticking to Divac's body like a candy.
The Serbians had already used all their secret tricks, and the next thing they were relying on was their real skills. He leaned against Curry's body tightly and turned around to hook his hand.
Because he failed to push Curry away, his hook was affected by Curry and shortened.
The ball hit the front of the basket and was caught by Curry. Mo Mengchen immediately knocked away Bowen and rushed forward.
Bao Wen wanted to use a trick, but what should he do to catch up with Mo Mengchen?
It's impossible, it's impossible for him to catch up with Mo Mengchen.
The distance gradually distanced from Mo Mengchen was evidence that God had other favors for these two people.
Also nearly two meters tall, Mo Mengchen's speed is getting faster and faster, surpassing everyone on the field. Bao Wen is like an ordinary person, and his speed is not slow either. However, compared to the demon who has already rushed through half the court, his speed is really too friendly.
Mo Mengchen succeeded in a fast attack counterattack.
Individual 30th point, 69 to 56.
The game entered a dangerous node, and the Kings were 13 points behind the Pistons.
The Pistons thought the king would continue to rely on McGrady and Nowitzki, but the person who stood up to score at this critical moment was Kassel who had escaped Momonchen.
The aliens had always been against Mo Mengchen before and showed up. Now Mo Mengchen is going to deal with Bowen and put Ginobili in front of him. After so long, he found that although the Argentine's defense is tough, it is not as strong as Mo Mengchen.
Being behind so many points, Kassel's desire to win made the attack.
First, he drifted past the Argentinian and made a jump shot.
58 to 69
"Bruce, calm down!" Kassel shouted.
Bowen continued to play against Momonchen, but with a few more caution than before, he began to forget what Collins told him and focus on the game in front of him.
When he gets serious, he really has the top defensive ability in the league.
Mo Mengchen can get rid of it by running, but now he needs other people to make more efforts.
Hill took the ball and started and exploded almost in line with McGrady, forcibly making an opportunity and glided for layup.
The layup power was too strong, and the ball rolled three times on the basket and dropped outward.
Curry instinctively grabbed the rebound, but he lacked experience. Divac behind him played the rebound and the aliens picked it up.
Alien assists McGrady quickly.
McGrady chased for three points in the frontcourt.
61 to 69
In a blink of an eye, the score difference was recovered to 8 points again.
This is the charm of a running and bomb team.
Seeing the big difference in points, as long as the opponent makes one or two big mistakes, he can change the unfavorable situation with his invincible offensive firepower.
The piston responded with teeth, and Momontex caught the ball and hit the ground again.
Ginobili took the ball smoothly, attracted the defense and then split into the outside line. Hill stepped on the line and made a three-pointer, and also hit.
71 to 61
