Regardless of whether Yang Mo's goal is to win a championship, his current task is to play well one game after another. Soon, the Knicks will face their first opponent after the All-Star break, the Memphis Grizzlies.
If the dark horse of the Eastern Conference this year is the New York Knicks, then the spoiler of the Western Conference should definitely be the Grizzlies. And what makes the Grizzlies soar is definitely not this year's second overall pick Thabeet, let alone last year's No. 3 pick OJ
Mayo, the real man behind the scenes is Zach Randolph, who was kicked out by the Knicks last year.
When Zach Randolph joined New York, the then general manager Isiah Thomas praised him greatly, thinking that he was amazing and talented. But it is a pity that this big fat man has never been able to play with him.
A commensurate performance. And when he was kicked out by D'Antoni, he immediately had a second spring in the Grizzlies, and he looked like the league's No. 1 offensive front man.
During the game that night, more than 20,000 players poured into Madison Garden. More than 70% were Knicks fans, and the remaining 30% were naturally Yang Mo's die-hard fans.
Ever since Yang Mo publicly showed his middle finger to Knicks fans, Knicks fans seem to have learned overnight what integrity is. Although they still express their dislike of Yang Mo on various occasions, thinking that Yang Mo is too arrogant in his playing style.
Too arrogant and so on. But they just can't control their feet and their eyes. They start to take the initiative to reserve game tickets in advance, or give up parties on game days and stay in front of the TV to watch the Knicks game. Even because
If they haven't seen the game before, they will ask about the game as soon as possible.
Although New Yorkers prefer to talk about the Yankees, this year seems to be a bit unexpected. The Yankees' record has been declining this year. After the Knicks acquired Yang Mo, not only did the topic soar, but their record also changed dramatically.
Changes. Under various negative and positive reports, the Knicks team began to appear widely in front of New Yorkers. Whether they were active or passive, they could always receive the latest news from this team. Gradually, the impact
The strength increased like this.
The team's influence in New York City is growing, which is undoubtedly a good thing for Yang Mo. After all, he is a shareholder of msg, and the increase in stock price means that his pockets are getting bigger and bigger. Of course, Yang Mo still talks about it.
I don't like New York fans. It's like I always hate New York fans verbally.
The media originally thought that this dark horse battle between the East and the West would be a lively situation like thunder and fire, but the fact is that the Knicks, who had undergone a major overhaul, collapsed from the first minute of the first quarter. They were defeated by the Grizzlies all the way.
The Knicks seemed to have forgotten how to play the game overnight. Their defense began to show faults. The offense began to be disordered, and they could only rely on the players to fight independently to barely guarantee the team's points difference.
It has not been expanded to more than ten points.
Regarding the team's defeat, Yang Mo rarely carried the team on his shoulders. He didn't even increase the number of shots. Instead, he passed the ball extremely patiently. Yes, Yang Mo was completely incarnate in the first three quarters of the game.
As an organizer, he worked very hard to manage this new job, but... the results were cruel. He only sent out 4 assists in the first three quarters, but made 8 turnovers.
Watching Yang Mo constantly passing basketballs to opponents on the court, the Knicks fans were about to collapse. In the past, they always felt that Yang Mo took too many shots, but now, they can't wait to see him take action.
opponent.
What's wrong with this guy? Why does he feel like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out?
Almost all Knicks fans feel Yang Mo's weirdness. Although they don't like Yang Mo, they understand Yang Mo extremely well. This guy should be the kind of arrogant madman? How can he tolerate his opponent's constant lead?
?Has he changed??
The fans were puzzled. Yang Mo also felt aggrieved. After the third quarter, he walked to Stockton behind the bench and said impatiently: "Can I go on a killing spree in the fourth quarter?"
Stockton half-squinted his eyes in a mysterious manner, and said slowly: "Have you realized the true meaning of passing the ball?"
"No." Yang Mo shook his head very honestly.
"No rush." Stockton nodded slightly, but still said slowly and like a magic stick: "Then you just play the game your way. Continue to learn in the next game."
"Yes!" Yang Mo nodded quickly, licked his tongue subconsciously, and walked to the bench excitedly with a hungry look.
Seeing this, Karl Malone next to Stockton shook Stockton's shoulder in confusion and asked: "What the hell are you doing? If you let him let go from the first quarter,
The Grizzlies were beaten long ago."
"What do you know?" Stockton rolled his eyes at Karl Malone angrily and said, "I did this to improve his passing ability."
"You can wait until garbage time to practice your passing skills." Karl Malone still didn't understand.
"Do you think the passing ability developed in garbage time is useful? Only strong opponents can hone the strongest skills!" Stockton said angrily: "Moreover, I deliberately caused the Knicks to fall behind. A true
A leader should lead the team out of trouble, not sail smoothly. Also, didn't you see Yang's expression just now? He looked hungry. Do you know when a tiger is the most ferocious?"
"Hungry tiger?" Karl Malone whispered uncertainly.
"Yes, that's what he is now." Stockton smiled and nodded, then pointed his finger at Yang Mo.
At this time, Yang Mo was planning tactics with Stein's tactical board: "Come on, guys, let's get down to business. Misic, Turiaf, Gallinani, and Tony Allen. You guys
Follow me later. I don't need you to remember any tactics. You just need to follow my footsteps and obey my orders. I will lead you to victory."
As soon as Yang Mo said this, the two old team members were full of confidence, while the two newcomers looked a little confused: Man, are you bragging? We are already 16 points behind, okay?
When Tony Allen and Turiaf were not confident, the whistle for the restart of the game had already sounded. After taking the field, Yang Mo directly handed the basketball to Tony Allen. Then he reminded Turiaf: "You
Swimming near the free throw line, your mid-range shooting ability will make Randolph afraid to leave you."
When Turiaf heard this, he was dubious, but when he returned to half court, he still stood firmly near the free throw line. Sure enough, Randolph was standing not far away from him and didn't move. At this moment, Tony Allen had already
He brought the basketball to the frontcourt. When Yang Mo asked for the ball, he quickly passed the ball over. Yang Mo took the ball and immediately made a running gesture towards him.
He was also dubious and felt that it was unnecessary to run away at this time. However, due to the majesty of Boss Yang Mo, he immediately ran back in.
While he was running back, Yang Mo deflected OJ Mayo's defense with a feint, and then directly used his abnormal explosive power and abnormal speed to cut into the penalty area. Watching Yang Mo gallop away, OJ Mayo didn't even think about it.
There is no way to stop him. His defense is not good in the first place. If he encounters a breakthrough player of Yang Mo's level, he will only be defeated.
When Yang Mo was about to rush to the free throw line, Zach Randolph quickly came up to defend. Seeing Randolph come up to defend, Yang Mo immediately stopped and passed the ball to Turiaf Turi with an easy through pass.
Yafu received the basketball and was already open. He was about to shoot, but found that Tony Allen had already run to the basket. Conley, who was guarding him, was blocked by Milicic. Of course he would not miss such a good opportunity and immediately shot it.
The ball was passed in, Tony Allen caught the ball, jumped up and dunked... Boom!
"Good job, man." Yang Mo immediately gave Tony Allen a thumbs up.
The fans in the audience also cheered very enthusiastically, after all, this was the first dunk in the game.
At this time, in addition to the excitement of dunking, Tony Allen was more shocked: Did this guy calculate the passing path from the beginning? Otherwise, how could he let Turiaf stand at the free throw line and let me
Quick counter-run? But...he didn't have any tactical tips at all. I have never seen this kind of movement in Stein's tactical system?
Tony Allen was so shocked, but Yang Mo regarded it as normal. This level of planning came easily to him, and it couldn't be easier.
"Tony, you go to guard OJ Mayo alone, Turiaf, you stand up to Zach Randolph, Milicic, you support Galinani on the left wing at 45 degrees, and as for Gasol, leave it to me.
"
Yang Mo returned to the backcourt and loudly reminded his teammates to move.
Under Yang Mo's arrangement, a fan-shaped defensive position was quickly formed, covering almost all the Grizzlies' attackers. Of course, Conley was habitually ignored.
Conley didn't seem to be willing to be ignored. He wandered around unguarded and took a shot directly from outside the three-point line. At the same time as he took the shot, a figure flew out and leaped high.
Just like the roc spreading its wings. The short Conley felt his eyes go dark, and a short while later, the basketball he shot was snatched away by a big hand within his sight. At this time, his jumping feet
It didn't even have time to land.
Not only Conley, who was blocked, didn't react, but the two Knicks rookies didn't react either, until Yang Mo, who took off the shot, shouted: "Fast break!!"
Hearing this call, they immediately ran away. However, their speed fell behind Yang Mo who broke through with the ball. By the time they ran desperately across the center line, Yang Mo had already made an emergency stop jumper one step outside the three-point line... They didn't have time yet.
I stopped and saw the basketball falling into the net accurately... Whoops!
As the net rolled up like waves, the passion of the entire Madison Garden was instantly ignited, and the roar of cheers bloomed like fireworks!
