0280: [I don't want to be on par with Lagarondo]
"Whoa, whoa!! Look, who we saw. It was Snoopy's father, and his mother. We had seen them backstage at the draft, and his father had caused some minor mess when he tossed Michael Beasley to the ground...... This caused chaos throughout the venue. Only, why are they here tonight? β
Reggie Miller immediately recognized the Douchafen couple on the screen.
He was so impressed that he was at the scene of the incident, and Beasley, who had just won the Eye of the List, was knocked to the ground by Snoopy's father, the legendary billionaire real estate developer, before he could raise his glass of red wine to celebrate.
"It's Chinese New Year, don't you see the red lanterns hanging high in Madison Garden? It's normal to be on the sidelines of your son as a parent. The real surprise was ...... Why did Scarlett Johansson accompany Snoopy's parents, I don't know what else was involved between Snoopy before the media reported at length that Snoopy kicked her away. But now... She actually had a close relationship with the little duke's parents, which is a treatment that other real duke girls don't have. β
Bill Wharton takes the conversation to Scarlett Johansson.
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the recent lace news that Scarlett is indeed a little ill-intentioned. Her involvement with Snoopy is getting deeper and deeper, but in fact, Hollywood is not optimistic about this transnational sibling relationship. They still prefer the younger Selena or Taylor...... Perhaps, this is a form of ageism. But... Whatever. Anyway, if it were in front of me, my answer would always be Scarlett! β
Reggie Miller also has a good relationship with the entertainment industry, and since the divorce, he has changed girlfriends in a hurry, most of them from the catwalks of supermodels and Hollywood reserves.
And when ESPN was chatting about the Duchess Girl.
The war is moving towards a more anxious state.
The Boston Celtics played an extremely aggressive, pressing defense, even though they didn't feel very good on the offensive end.
But the Knicks' young players... Almost everyone, except Duge, was intimidated by their momentum.
As a result, when the game entered the ninth minute, the Boston Celtics took an eight-point lead at 19:11.
"Next, I will fight you as a core! I'll show everyone that the gap between us is a chasm that you can only look up to throughout your career! β
Lagalondo made it clear to Dug when the Knicks asked for a timeout.
He had been patient before, acting as an assistant by the side of the Big Three. So, time and time again, he's seen Doog break into the paint zone with the damn killer crossover, and he couldn't retaliate himself!
"You may have some misunderstanding about yourself." Dugg also told Rondo frankly: "Your limit is to find a suitable squad to become a top champion." As for... Leading a team forward, it's not within your reach. β
Lagarondo snorted coldly, disapproving: "What weak trash talk! β
As he spoke, he strode over to the bench.
Recently, La Galarondo is actively playing a more important role. Doug Rivers began to give him more opportunities in the rotation: he would lead almost all the counter-attacks, with Pierce and Allen playing the role of chasing long-range shots on the wings. And in the positional battle, Ray Allen's air cut first attack, and he passed. If Ray Allen can't get out of the open space, he can be completely dominant, usually at the top of the arc and inside, and quickly pick up the back door as soon as there is someone on the weak side...... It's all on the verge that he's becoming Boston's true Big Four.
So, when Kevin Garnett offered to kill Snoopy's majesty.
He's the first to stand up and respond, he's going to get up, he's going to announce that he's becoming the elite player in this league.
So, Snoopy became the object of his flag.
After enduring the first nine minutes of the first quarter, he was finally about to show his fangs.
He informed the Big Three and the coaches about it on the bench and he got everyone's support.
The coaching staff believes that now that the Knicks have won so much, they can allow Lagalondo to play a little individually.
And the Big Three can't wait to see Lagalondo clean up that hateful bastard of Snoopy!
Meanwhile, the Knicks' bench is just as lively.
"Stay here, you soft-haired boys, and see how we deal with those hypocrites in Boston." Zach Randolph tore off his training jacket with a big grin and threw it aside: "In the NBA, it's not enough to just run to the outside and shoot three-pointers!" β
Jeffries was shaking his head as well, "I've got to show Pierce that Snoopy isn't alone!" If they want to fight, some people will play with them! β
Quentin Richardson snapped his fingers and gurgled.
It looked like they were preparing for a big fight than a ball.
D'Antoni pouted, he didn't like this habit very much, he just emphasized: "You only have 6 minutes. β
"No, Mr. D'Antoni. According to our agreement, if our lineup builds an eight-point margin in six minutes, we can continue to play for another six minutes...... That's what you personally agreed to at the time. Isaiah Thomas added to their previous agreement.
D'Antoni shrugged: "It's better to be like this!" β
He actually didn't think so, he didn't think this lineup would be able to recover eight points. After all, the opponent is Celtic.
And at this moment, Stephen Marbury stood up, and he took the initiative to ask: "Let me play, I will definitely cooperate well with Snoopy." β
As soon as he said this, D'Antoni and Isaiah Thomas, who were still on the tip of the needle, instantly united the front...... For Stephen Marbury, their rejection was palpable.
They twist their heads to the other side and turn a deaf ear!
Dugg frowned slightly, and he glanced at Stephen Marbury.
He agrees with Stephen Marbury, but now... He didn't have a voice within the messy Knicks. The so-called 'words are not persuasive', he just pursed his lips and swallowed the words that came to his mouth back into his stomach, but quietly patted him on the shoulder.
It's a subtle action.
But it gave Stephen Marbury great spiritual encouragement.
He's already lost all credit with this team, and everyone is facing him coldly. But unexpectedly, the first person to send a friendly message to himself turned out to be Snoopy.
This made him feel moved by the feeling of 'death for his confidant' at a certain moment.
Backbite!
The whistle blows and the game continues.
The Knicks' lineup has become: Dugg, Quentin Richardson, Jeffries, Zach Randolph, and Milicic!
The Boston Celtics have a lineup of Lagalondo, Tony Allen, Paul Pearce, Glenn Davis and Kentrick Perkins.
When Dugg took the ball beyond the three-point line, Lagalondo was quick to get in front of him.
"Come on! Our showdown has officially begun. β
Rondo's tone was still condescending and arrogant: "I already know about the shaking of your shoulders and the squinting of your eyes, if you still want to use this kind of trick, I can only say that you are humiliating yourself!" β
Dugg nodded.
He agrees with the answer.
However, there is one thing that Lagalondo overlooks, and that is progress!!
Progress at the speed of light!
Through the previous actual combat exercises, Duge is now more sensitive to the timing.
When he noticed the moment Lagalondo's left foot moved forward slightly, he immediately made a shake of his right shoulder, and his eyes glanced to the left...... Bang!
At the same time, the basketball fell violently at Rondo's feet like a sharp drumbeat.
Rondo subconsciously made a sliding step, and when he slid it...... Shout!
crossoverοΌοΌ
Lightning-fast killer rhythm, straight to the point.
Lagalondo's defense burst in an instant, and Dugg swept him aside like a flood rushing over the nine heavens, and he himself was already inside the three-point line and quickly sinking into the paint.
After losing Kevin Garnett's help defense, Dugg galloped all the way!
Although Lagalondo chased after him, Milicic took advantage of just the right amount of cover to make a backhand layup under the basket with ease!
13οΌ18γ
SnooopyβDuοΌοΌ
Under the strong voice of the live DJ, Madison Garden was filled with cheers.
Dugg calmly told Lagarondo in the midst of the noise: "Now, it's your turn!" β
Lagalondo turned to take the pass and quickly advanced to the front.
He just wanted to pull away from the singles.
only to find that Dug was already two meters away, with an expression that if you want to shoot, please take it easy.
Dugg was not at all close to Lagalondo.
This annoyed Lagalondo, and he could only beckon Leon Bob to come out and do a pick-and-roll for himself.
At this point, ESPN's McBrin said with a smile: "Snoopy has finally tasted the taste of putting two steps to defend others, and usually, he is put on two steps to defend by others." β
Bill Wharton shook his head with a smile and said, "Lagalondo and Snoopy are tied for the league's top two point guards who can't shoot the basket, and their heads-up is really hard to get interesting." β
"No, I think you're wrong. In terms of shooting alone, Snoopy is fundamentally different from Lagalondo. Snoopy has a shooting touch, and if Lagaron puts him two meters away, Snoopy can shoot the basketball on the spot. Lagalondo, on the other hand, has no shooting touch at all, can you imagine a point guard shooting 37 percent from the free-throw line this season? In fact, Snoopy is eighty-nine percent. β
Reggie Miller said: "So, when it comes to shooting, Snoopy has the advantage. β
"But in terms of one-on-one defense, breakaways, passing, backcourt rebounding and playmaking, I think Lagalondo has the edge." Bill Wharton said: "Rondo's playoff play last year even gave me the urge to rank him as the second-best point guard in Boston's history! β
Bill Wharton is a veteran of the Green Shirts, and his conversation tonight inevitably leans toward Boston.
Reggie Miller objected: "I think Snoopy has an all-round advantage!" I know this argument will spark ridicule from most basketball pundits, given that Snoopy is still young and hasn't proven himself in the playoffs yet. But based on my observations of Snoopy, and his ability to read the game, I think he's the better point guard! β
This statement did not get Bill Wharton's approval.
McBlin also thinks he's a bit arbitrary.
By this time, Lagalondo had already completed the block with Leon Bob, and handed the basketball to Tony Allen with a backhand pass at the free throw line, and Tony Allen completed an easy one-handed layup.
It was a stroke of genius pass that even Madison Garden couldn't help but let out some cheers.
Bill Wharton emphasized: "With Snoopy's coordination, it's hard for him to make such a subtle and imaginative pass. β
But as soon as the words fell, Dugg handed the basketball to Quentin Richardson in the bottom corner with a wonderful no-look-pass in the frontcourt, and Richardson hit a three-pointer accurately.
At that time, Dug broke through the left with the ball, Zach Randolph moved over to cover for him, his fat body blocked Lagarondo, Leon Bob and Tony Allen quickly stepped forward to intercept, forming a pressure on Dug, trying to push him to the end.
However, just before Dugg stepped into the bottom line, he suddenly made a sharp stop, passed the ball from behind, and the basketball crossed the half court, and Quentin Richardson in the bottom corner of the other side received the basketball ...... Swish!
Basketball arrested!
It was a brilliant pass.
Stephen Marbury couldn't help but stand up and applaud loudly.
This is what he lacks, he is good at breaking through the ball, but in positional battles, he tends to lose his senses!
"Snoopy's coordination has improved again." Bill Wharton said with some embarrassment: "In the past, he couldn't complete the pass from behind, which required extreme precision in power and body control!" β
Reggie Miller just smiled and resisted the venomous attack on the senior.
He didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly.
Lagalondo, meanwhile, had arrived in the front court, and with Perkins' pick-and-roll, he took advantage of the chaos from the top of the arc into the paint zone, and under Milicic's switch, he suddenly made a back-to-back pass...... This is his signature move.
Milicic was still fooled, and his pursuit of defense subconsciously stopped!
Lagalondo, on the other hand, quickly jumped under the basket for a layup...... But at the moment of the layup...... A dark shadow descended from behind him...... Syllable!
The basketball is pressed directly on top of the rebound.
Lagalondo landed, and amid the screams and cheers of the audience, he saw Dugg grab the basketball that belonged to him and appear in front of him.
"You're too old for this trick."
Dugg told him calmly.
At this time, the large screen overhead was replaying the footage of Dugg bypassing Perkins' interception with a turn motion directly from the gap, and then he chased to the basket and flew into the sky to cover Lagalondo's layup.
"Snoopy's progress has been very fast, and his flexibility has improved so much compared to what he was before the All-Star break." McBrin praised: "His hard work and diligence are really visible to the naked eye!" β
Kobe Bryant in front of the TV frowned, and he thought to himself: He wasn't so flexible the night before.
"I feel like Lagalondo's style of play has been completely restrained by Snoopy." Reggie Miller suddenly said: "Snoopy can't defend against that kind of guard who combines sudden shots, but like... A defender like Lagalondo, who is only good at working in the penalty area, his bounce power will easily weave a sky net that cannot be broken free! β
Bill Wharton scratched his ears and cheeks, a little short of words. Now judging from the field, although the two teams are still in contact, Snoopy does have a certain advantage in the matchup.
He felt that if he continued like this, even if Boston won tonight. Snoopy's position in the alliance is probably on par with Lagarondo...... Reach the top 60 or so in the league.
But... Dugg wasn't thinking about being on par with Lagarondo.
