Chapter 138: Maddie who is the least like Maddie
When the Spurs released the news to sign Maddie not long ago, everyone thought that the Spurs were stupid, how could they sign a person who no longer has much ability and is obviously here to hug his thighs?
Bipopovich is very disdainful, how can these scum know their plans?
Yes, Maddie is no longer the person who can move God in 35 seconds, but Popovich is not the Maddie he wants, Popovich wants a veteran who can exert energy in limited playing time and can control the rhythm of the team, and although Maddie is old, he can't run fast or jump high, but his experience and basic skills are still there, and he is fully qualified to play the role of a commander in ten minutes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
So when Maddy expressed his willingness to join the Spurs, Popovich was very welcome.
And, after careful consideration, he found that the lineup that best suited Maddie's current ability to play was the future lineup proposed by the old guy at Pat Riley. It just so happens that after Maddie came, the Spurs also had the ability to put together such a lineup.
Now, let's see how powerful Maddie can use this lineup!
On the court at this time, Maddie was facing Jeremy Lin with his signature move - a one-handed ball. The height advantage allowed him to easily suppress his opponent, and Jeremy Lin couldn't put pressure on Maddie at all, and he couldn't even touch Maddie's elbow when he stretched out his hand, let alone pull the ball!
At this time, many people who watched this game in front of the TV and the Internet were about to cry, what a classic action, once this man used this trick I don't know how many people he conquered, I didn't expect that after such a long time, I could see Maddie use this trick again!
Qin Yan and Dior roamed on the inside, involving the Rockets' interior defense, and Green and Leonard kept running back and forth on the outside, creating space for Maddie.
Qin Yan was also paying attention to Maddie's movements when he was running, after all, after Jordan, this one-handed ball Maddie was the most handsome.
In fact, Maddie is a little helpless now, if it was his own winning period, he would have broken through with a beautiful short stride, after all, it was also the fastest first step in the alliance.
But now, the back injury has made it difficult for Maddie to make a breakthrough, and the fastest first step is no longer used, so he can only put on his signature moves now to make fans miss it.
Moreover, this action, the Chinese kid in the team is now much better than himself.
Thinking of this, Maddie suddenly felt as if she had let go of something, yes, she is not the original self, but now the team needs not the original Maddie who sees scoring as if she was probing for things, what the team needs now is a Maddie who can command the whole team.
So, let's see how good Maddie is as a point guard!
Blocking Jeremy Lin with his back, Maddie dribbled diagonally and leaned inside, although Jeremy Lin's current strength is not lost to the old Maddie, but after all, there is a big difference in height, and Maddie is now half lying on his body and dribbling inside, Jeremy Lin wants to stabilize his body, so he can only retreat.
As soon as the Rockets saw that this was not going to work, Maddie would directly press Jeremy Lin to the inside, Parsons hurriedly stepped forward to prepare to make up for the defense, at this time, Maddie's whole person turned to the right, and at the same time he turned around, he shook his right hand fiercely, and the basketball flew like a bullet to the hands of Green, which Parsons leaked out.
Green himself was startled, because the ball was passed too fast and too hidden, Parsons made up from behind Maddie, but Maddie was like having eyes in the back of his head, and passed the ball directly the moment Parsons made up, without even looking back at Green's position.
And the strength of this ball is just right, Green doesn't need to adjust after receiving the ball, and it is a three-point shot to raise his hand directly!
"Hmmm-" Maddie got an assist with her first touch of the ball after coming on the court.
Many Maddie fans watched Maddie's game in front of the TV, and they felt that this Maddie was no longer the same as the Maddie they remembered.
In the past, Maddie was more willing to charge and score on his own, although they knew that he could pass the ball, but they didn't know how good they thought he could pass, because Maddie would not pass easily when he could score.
But for the ball just now, people originally thought that Maddie would choose to press Jeremy Lin to make a shot, but in the end, Maddie chose to pass, and it was a very wonderful pass.
This is not the familiar Maddie, but it is the best Maddie of the past few years.
Even Qin Yan felt that this kind of Maddie was the one who could best exert his remaining abilities.
Back on the defensive end, Qin Yan was responsible for going to Asik, and after Jeremy Lin dribbled, he didn't wait for Maddie to come up to defend, and threw the ball directly to Asik, wanting to open a breakthrough from the inside.
The Rocket's two interior lines are now taller than Qin Yan and Dio, and Asik is a traditional blue-collar center, with height, weight and strength (although in addition to height, they are not very top-notch), if you change the small lineup of the average team, it really can't stop such an inside line.
But the Spurs are not an ordinary team, there are two extraordinary people here, Dior and Qin Yan.
Although Dior has become a fat man now, he is indeed a flexible fat man, his movement speed in the interior is first-class, and he has tonnage, and he will not suffer too much to play as a big forward.
And Qin Yan, although this guy is a scoring guard, his strong physical fitness allows him to act as an interior line when defending.
Especially Qin Yan's strength, it is definitely at the inside level! And the general inside line is not even as strong as Qin Yan's.
Asik turned his back and tried to force Qin Yan strongly, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't hold up the Chinese kid behind him, as if there was a wall behind him, and he couldn't move.
Qin Yan is still very easy to top Asik, although his height is 10 cm shorter than Asik, but Qin Yan uses his strength and technology to prevent Asik from behind He can't straighten up, so that he can't hold it high and fight, there is no threat at all.
Asik was unwilling to fail, and slammed into his back with all his might, but was unexpectedly shocked back by the power of Qin Yan's rebound, and in desperation, he could only grasp the ball with both hands to avoid mistakes.
At this moment, a large hand strangely appeared between Asik's hands, "snapped" and broke the ball and stole it.
It's Maddie, Maddie picked up the ball directly after breaking the ball and ran forward, and threw the ball forward without running two more steps!
Leonard hurried forward after Maddy broke the ball, and this time he just received Maddy's pass, without any hesitation, facing the unguarded basket was directly a dunk!
Playing less than 2 minutes, contributing a steal and two assists, this is not the familiar Maddie, but now, this is indeed the Maddie that the Spurs need most!
Even if he only plays for a few minutes, ten minutes, he can contribute his best strength, and he uses his actions to tell everyone that he, T-MAC, is not here for the Spurs!
