NBA: Me! The Raging Point Guard

Chapter 131



Half time.

Inside the Lakers locker room

"At present, this best rookie in the Eastern Conference seems to be just so-so…"

Nick Young lay on the chair and played with his curly hair.

Su Hao kicked Nick Young’s leg lightly.

"Don't say that, everyone is just comparing me with him.

I have to admit that his role in the interior is still very important.

At least he is just a rookie at the moment."

After listening to Su Hao's words, Randle and Jokic nodded.

"It's really oppressive.……"

After that, everyone gathered and walked back to the court from the player tunnel.

Seeing Su Hao and others appear, the fans cheered again.

Anthony from the Knicks also returned to the court with a group of people.

"After the halftime break, I believe they have recovered some of their strength. I wonder if they can surprise us again in the second half!"

Barkley adjusted his microphone and continued to explain with O'Neal.

The third quarter began.

Rose took the lead in attacking with the ball.

Rose's performance in the first half was mediocre, and his playing style was obviously not as good as his previous flying style.

Changing direction without slowing down and dunking without hanging the rim have always been his signature.

But injuries have forced him to change his playing style. He scored 5 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists in the first half, which is the level of an ordinary guard.

Of course, the fans don't expect him to perform at a super high level.

Now he just needs to be healthy.

Facing Rose with the ball, Su Hao did not want to play high-intensity defense, not because of disrespect, but because he wanted him to reduce the risk of injury again.

"I'm much better now, and of course I hope you can treat me with good defense, I'm not that fragile..."

Ross said this, which made Su Hao a little embarrassed

"Playing defense is a respect for the opponent, so in this case... you have to be prepared."

Rose also smiled without saying anything.

Porzingis suddenly appeared beside him and directly blocked the defensive route.

Rose found a good opportunity and accelerated into the penalty area from the right wing.

Randle quickly made up for the defense and stood in the penalty area waiting for Rose's attack.

Seeing this, Rose quickly pulled back with a back dribble, getting himself a completely open opportunity.

Mid-range shot.

Shot hit.

It seems that he has regained some feeling

"Rose hits the mid-range shot! It seems that although he was taciturn when he came to the Knicks, he still wanted to contribute to the team from the bottom of his heart."

Then Su Hao also dribbled the ball past half-court, and Ross treated Su Hao with active defense.

He was very perseverant, and even going up mountains of swords and seas of fire could not stop him from wanting to win.

But Su Hao's arrogance and unreasonableness still let him down in the end. Feeling helpless, he accelerated from the left and reached the low position. He charged up and pushed Ross a few meters away.

Then he adjusted his posture with a small jump and quickly took a small mid-range shot from close range.

"Swish……"

Hit again

"Sure enough, it is still so powerful... I feel really helpless against your resistance."

Rose patted his chest to cover up the pain caused by Su Hao's fierce collision.

O'Neal was used to Su Hao's confrontation, and now he could only shake his head to express his helplessness for the defensive players.

"No one in the same position could guard against Su Hao's confrontation. With both speed and strength, he didn't need any skills at all.

At that time, we only relied on brute force to get opportunities in the paint, right, Charles."

O'Neal turned his head and exchanged glances with Barkley.

"Who is as simple-minded and well-developed as you? A power forward with both strength and skill like me, wouldn’t it be easy to beat you?"

Then Barkley flexed his muscles.

"Do you have any skills?"

O'Neal also used his muscles to punch Barkley.

This is also their daily quarrel.

Back then, they used to fight each other on the court.

Then Rose passed the ball to Anthony, who was in the low post on the right. He quickly ran, and Su Hao followed closely.

Rose went from the left bottom corner to the top of the arc, using Porzingis's cover.

Su Hao was blocked by Porzingis again, and Rose ran quickly along the middle.

Anthony turned sideways and passed the ball to Rose who was running over.

There was no one in the inside, and Jokic was also pulled to the low post on the left by O'Quinn to create space for Rose.

Rose received the ball and jumped to make a silky layup.

It was a perfect match, and Rose also smiled and greeted his teammates' high-fives.

All signs indicate that Rose began to usher in his own highlight in the third quarter.

The next attack At this time, Rose again took the ball and shot a mid-range shot while running.

It was an empty shot.

On the defensive end, Anthony and Clarkson doubled in the low post, but Rose stole the ball and started a fast break.

Running to the frontcourt, a high throw and Porzingis running inside jumped up without hesitation and dunked the ball. A perfect alley-oop.

Su Hao was not idle either, and he had a back-and-forth with Rose.

But the Knicks' offense became more and more fierce with Rose as the core.

Using Rose's off-ball movement and teammates' screens, he found opportunities to shoot.

It is undeniable that Rose's touch gradually warmed up at the beginning of the third quarter.

With consecutive shots and wonderful assists, he scored 10 points and made 3 assists so far in the third quarter.

He helped the team to close the score to within 10 points.

【Lakers 78:70 Knicks].

Lakers coach Scott quickly called a timeout, and it was obvious that they were a little worried at this time.

So make adjustments quickly.

The cheers from Lakers fans at home were also much less. Although they were relieved to see Rose's outburst, after all, it was their home court and they could only regard Rose as their opponent.

"Rose...so far in this game, he has made 7 of 13 shots and scored 15 points on one free throw. Among them, he scored 10 points in the third quarter and has a 53% shooting rate.

It seems that the performance is quite satisfactory.���It was a sudden burst that helped the team regain some points."

"Rose's arrival in the Knicks may be a good destination, and this place is also very suitable for him.

But now Rose seems to have changed his playing style.

His characteristics are changing direction without slowing down and dunking without hanging the rim, but now he is not prominent, and he mostly attacks without the ball and organizes.

So this can be regarded as a forced transformation... There are many benefits to this."

Barkley said with emotion

"Yes, injuries have ruined a lot. Although he can't return to his peak, I hope he can stay healthy.

Of course, continuing to develop in this area may also lead to a more dynamic offensive mode than before.

That is, let teammates participate more. Refer to the Warriors, who currently have the strongest off-ball play. Keep it up!"

The two commentators sighed at Rose, who returned from injury and entered a transformation.

"I really miss Rose who used to fly into the sky and escape from the ground. Although it is good without the ball, it is not as entertaining as the previous violent play."

"Yes, we all know that Rose is a talented player!"

"Rose's sudden outburst seemed to add a bit of suspense to the game?"
