"The Magic didn't target Wade that much because they didn't have any big men."
Gentry stroked his chin. "But we do... Mourning has won the DPOY award twice, and Kenyon is a tough guy too."
After the 1990s...
The best defensive players are almost all big men.
First it was Olajuwon, then Mutombo, then Mourning. Only Payton has won it once. After them came Wei Guo, who has won the DPOY for three consecutive years.
......
Van Gundy realized he was wrong.
Even though the Heat were trailing, he kept trying to stick to the same strategy, while when the Nets were leading, he kept improving his tactics.
If Wade can't get going, we'll have to rely on the other players!
Fortunately...
When Wade breaks through, it's like tearing apart the Nets' defense. Even if he doesn't attack, his teammates will have a chance to shoot.
"Pass the ball more!"
Van Gundy reminded Wade, "Don't attack blindly, help your teammates score."
11:3!!!
With just over four minutes left in the game, the Heat were down by eight points!
like...
The Heat have fallen behind at the start of every game, and they haven't had a good start yet.
Van Gundy brought in Alston and replaced Grant, which is considered a small lineup. The Heat have three guards on the court: Alston, Wade, and Jones.
"Don't let the ball stick..."
Van Gundy was a little worried, "Try to link up the offense more."
The Heat are on offense. Alston turns past Hill and makes a straight pass to Odom.
Van Gundy was on tenterhooks!
Alston's pass... with Jefferson and Kenyon between him and Odom, the ball narrowly reached Odom's hands. Odom received the ball, which was a good pass. If Jefferson had intercepted the ball in the middle, it would have been a very stupid mistake!
Odom takes a mid-range shot.
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
11:5!!!
The Heat are still down by 6 points.
Wei Guo dribbles the ball up the court, and Alston defends him!
This is interesting...
The audience all stood up and chanted, "Streetball King! Streetball King! Streetball King!"
This was to encourage Alston, and at the same time remind Weiguo that the one guarding him was the king of streetball, and if he didn't show off some fancy skills, he wouldn't be worthy of being the league's number one player.
Alston is too thin!
Even if Wei Guo shoots from a stationary position, Alston can't interfere with his shot, let alone use his body to hit Alston.
"I heard you're quite famous in Rock Park?"
"Very famous!"
"Then try my trick..."
As Wei Guo finished speaking, he performed a crossover jump, and the basketball passed between his legs twice, both times with the same hand on the same side. The difficulty was so high that even Alston, known as the soul of jumping, would have a hard time doing it.
"Holy crap..."
Alston was incredibly envious; Weiguo's dribbling was just too good!
But this is not the end...
After Wei Guo's crossover jump ball, he had already gotten past Alston, but he pulled the ball back and then changed direction behind his back!
*Smack!!!*
Alston stumbled and fell to the ground.
Wei Guo reached out his left hand towards Alston and casually tossed the ball toward the basket with his right hand. The moment Wei Guo pulled Alston up.
"Whoosh!!!"
A crisp sound rang out behind him.
13:5!!
The fact that Wei Guo got two points is not the key point.
The moment he faked out the streetball king, the old faith of countless streetball players in the US collapsed, and a new faith rose.
When Wei Guo reached out to Alston, he casually tossed the ball into the net with his other hand. It was too casual, which was a big blow to Alston. Wei Guo didn't consider him a worthy opponent at all.
"Where can we go to seek justice?"
Van Gundy slapped his thigh, thinking he'd have Alston surprise the Heat, but Alston got played by Wei Guo!
Alston has quite a temper...
After Wei Guo pulled him up, Alston shook off Wei Guo's hand. He even wanted to chop off his own left hand. He had just grabbed Wei Guo's hand on a whim, and it was even more painful than being shaken to the ground.
......
There's a rule on the streets of New York: if someone knocks you down, you have to knock them back down!
The Heat are on offense.
Facing Wei Guo's defense, Alston first turned and dribbled between his legs, then continued to dribble between his legs, his movements were smooth!
Wei Guo stood in front of Alston with his hands outstretched, because he didn't need to defend him seriously. Alston couldn't shoot over him; he only needed to give Alston a step and let him dribble. Ultimately, Alston could only choose to drive or pass.
Alston was also helpless; Wei Guo wasn't cooperating at all.
Jones circled to the three-point line, and Alston had no choice but to pass the ball to Jones, who then launched a three-pointer over Hill!
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball swished through the net!
13:8!!
"Do not attempt to provoke Weiguo."
Jones cautioned, "He's much stronger than you think."
Even though Alston is a streetball king, Jones is his senior on the Heat. He has to listen to what Jones says, and Jones's three-pointer also helped Alston out of a tight spot.
Nets on offense!
Wei Guo dribbles while jumping, and the audience is on edge... wondering what kind of trick he's going to pull off this time.
Alston stepped up to defend Wei Guo, his arm fully outstretched. He noticed that Wei Guo was dribbling the ball very high, which was a great opportunity to steal the ball. He reached forward and scooped it up.
Wei Guo's reaction was too fast...
With a flick of his left hand, he turned and faked out Alston, but Wei Guo didn't attack directly. He took a step back and, taking advantage of Alston's momentary daze, dribbled the basketball through Alston's legs under the basket. He was toying with Alston!
"grass~~~"
Unable to bear the humiliation, Alston shoved Wei Guo violently.
"Beep!!!"
The referee ran over, blowing his whistle, and stood between Weiguo and Alston.
Wei Guo held the basketball with his hands outstretched. He wasn't angry when he was pushed. He was just joking with Alston. Isn't he the king of streetball? Why is he so easily amused?
The Nets' bench erupted in laughter.
Rogers laughed and said, "Good and evil will eventually be rewarded... Alston has toyed with so many people on the field, it's time for him to experience what it's like to be toyed with."
"He's panicking!"
Cummings pointed at Alston, "He's panicking...he's panicking...he's panicking..."
The basketball court is a battlefield.
For some players, you can beat them, but you can't humiliate them. Wei Guo's move just now, even though he had already gotten past Alston, he still pulled the ball back and nutmegged him. That's humiliating the opponent.
But...
Alston often humiliated his opponents, even in the NbA, he would show off his ball control whenever he had the chance.
