Chapter 313 George is enlightened, marching into a 23-game winning streak!

George took the towel off his head and stood up.

McGrady, who was passing by, patted him on the head twice.

"You can continue attacking later."

t-mac said calmly.

George turned back with a puzzled expression.

"Play until you get it in."

Maddie added.

"That's right! Mike can't guard you at all."

Curry, who was passing by, said kindly.

"...."

"Um!"

George smiled and nodded.

The game continues, and the Rockets serve from the backcourt.

After Curry dribbled the ball through half the court, he handed the ball over and started running without the ball.

The Timberwolves were very afraid of the cute god's three points, so they sent "heavy troops" to chase and intercept him.

But this way, other Rockets players will have more opportunities.

Not long after, George suddenly made a reverse run from outside the three-point line.

But Michael Beasley wasn't focused and didn't keep up immediately.

McGrady, who was at the top of the arc, flicked his wrist and accurately handed the ball to George, who raised his hand and shot...

"Shua~"

The basketball hits the net!

At 20:13, the score difference became single digits.

After scoring the goal, George was relieved and showed a long-lost smile.

While returning to defense, he took the initiative to high-five Tracy McGrady and Curry to celebrate.

Timberwolves offensive possession.

Beasley wanted to continue his previous hot touch, so he once again asked for the ball in the low post.

Timberwolves defender Ridnour hit the ground and passed the ball inside.

After Beasley received the ball, he turned around and adjusted to face the frame to attack.

George, on the other hand, lowered his center of gravity, assumed a standard posture, and was highly concentrated.

"Hey, rookie, take.it.easy, ok?"

Beasley said with a smile.

Today's game made him feel like he was back at the top.

Before the game, Timberwolves head coach Rambis told Beasley:

"George's hands are very fast, so be careful to protect the ball and don't hit it hard."

After hearing this, Beasley was not impressed.

Ever since he was young, he has never lost in a duel.

Even the guy called the God of Death was defeated by him many times!

Therefore, Beasley responded to the coach on the spot: "You don't understand my abilities at all. Don't worry, I will take care of that rookie."

Back to today.

So far in the game, he has proven with actions that he is not bragging.

Therefore, during the timeout just now, he even mocked a Polish team.

Rambis is a coach with little qualifications. Faced with Beasley's ridicule, he dared not speak out in anger.

After all, Rambis is still counting on Beasley to make a "breakout" today and help the Timberwolves win an upset victory, in order to continue his endangered coaching career.

But his stubbornness made Beasley even more inflated.

That's why he started talking trash when he was facing off against George.

You know, at the beginning of the first quarter, Beasley had no distractions and was concentrating on attacking!

............

Faced with Beasley's provocation, George simply ignored it.

Such an attitude undoubtedly makes the former very uncomfortable.

"Smelly boy..."

Beasley said as he began to attack.

However, as soon as he took a tentative step, George stretched out his palm and knocked the ball out of his hand.

Beasley panicked instantly.

He immediately bent down, trying to regain control of the ball.

However, George made a flying dive and got the ball under his body first.

Curry on the side reacted quickly and ran all the way from the bottom corner to catch up.

George also passed the ball to Curry before Beasley could grab the ball.

The Rockets went full throttle on No. 30 and went straight to the Timberwolves half court.

George stood up quickly and immediately joined in the counterattack.

While running at high speed, Curry used his peripheral vision to keep an eye on Pickle's movements.

Seeing that George had followed up from the wing, he made a no-look-pass and secretly handed the ball to the former's hands.

After George caught the ball, he raised his long legs and thrust them directly into the "heart" of the Timberwolves like a sharp blade.

Behind him, Beasley chased hard.

However, his movement speed is much inferior to George's.

Even if he tried his best, Beasley couldn't catch up and could only watch Pickled Pepper take off from behind...

"bang!"

George ended the attack with a tomahawk chop that shocked everyone.

"Roar!!!"

After scoring the goal, Paojiao roared toward the sky, venting his pent-up emotions.

But his performance is far from over.

A minute later, the Rockets once again made a subtle attack.

After a series of complex passes and cuts, George used the screen to step out, received Curry's pass from outside the three-point line, and took the shot calmly.

The basketball left his fingertips and spun at high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shua~"

Hollow into the net!

As soon as the goal was scored, George completely relaxed.

He scored 7 points in a row and completely locked down Beasley on the defensive end.

It can be said that George paid back the losses he suffered in the first half of the first quarter in the second half.

On the sidelines, Mark Jackson said to the assistant coach:

"George and Beasley are completely different players."

"In terms of talent alone, Beasley may be better than George."

"But his offensive mode is single, and his efficiency cannot be guaranteed. When defending, he is very easy to get distracted, giving his opponents opportunities to score easily."

The assistant coach nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Beasley may play like a superstar at a certain period of time, but looking at the entire game or the entire season, he is not even at the level of a starting player."

"I hope Paul can learn something from this confrontation..."

Mark Jackson said thoughtfully.

............

After George scored consecutively, he did have some enlightenment in his heart.

Previously, after being beaten by Beasley in a row, he wanted to fight back with the ball in singles.

However, with such an obvious intention, even Beasley, who was poorly defensive, was able to prevent George from attacking several times.

In the past few minutes, after Paojiao calmed down, he adjusted his style of play and adopted more off-the-ball attacks.

Since then, Beasley has been completely unable to guard against him.

[Sometimes... a simple attack method is more efficient?]

George suddenly thought of this sentence.

Since this season, as the starting small forward, he has actually been playing without the ball.

But this is because there are ball-handling attackers like McGrady and Yao Ming in the starting lineup.

George is willing to be a green leaf for the balance of the team.

But in his heart, he believes that attacking with the ball is the embodiment of personal ability.

Only now did George think differently!

[In the future, I will become the main offensive point. I can still continue to play without the ball and only attack with the ball when necessary.]

This is George’s glimmer of understanding!

After figuring this out, Beasley's defense was like air in front of him.

In the next few minutes of the first quarter, George scored another 8 points, scoring 15 points in a single quarter!

Because of his outstanding performance, the Rockets not only closed the point difference at the end of the first quarter, but also led by 7 points.

Since then, both Billis and the Timberwolves have been like deflated balls, with no motivation to compete anymore.

What happened next is not difficult to imagine.

The Rockets established a lead of more than 20 points in the third quarter.

The starting players once again completed three quarters!

In the end, the Rockets defeated the Timberwolves 135:105, winning their 22nd consecutive victory!

As long as they win one more game, they can break the record they set four years ago!
