Chapter 509 Actor or Player?
In the first quarter, Alan Houston made 5 of 0 shots, scored 0 points and 1 rebound.
The commentator at the scene mentioned this incident intentionally or unintentionally, and said insinuatingly: "Maybe it's because he spent too much energy off the court."
In the star-studded team of the Pistons, Houston is not outstanding. He is not as powerful as Hill, nor as topical as Mo Mengchen, and he is not a former superstar like Barkley in retirement status. three people.
If this continues, he may be reduced to the fourth man, because Rasheed's status in the Pistons is getting higher and higher.
He is very easy to be underestimated. This season, he averaged 18 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game. He averaged [-]nd in the team in scoring per game. He hit the most mid-range shots in the team per game. around.
He's the kind of player who doesn't look like much, but has a lot of value.
This season he's starting to come into the spotlight for other things.
He is the first actor in NBA history to debut through theater.
It’s not that the NBA has never produced actors. When big-name players more or less have guest appearances in film and television dramas, Houston is not the case. He regards acting as a second career, and started his acting career in New York. Some movies that want to attract fans Will invite him to play a small role, Houston naturally agreed.
In addition to games and training, his other time is spent on acting.
I just finished filming a movie a few days ago, and I didn’t even practice with the team this afternoon. I arrived at the scene just before the game started.
Doing so will naturally arouse suspicion in others.
Is his mind still on basketball?
Has he forgotten that he is an NBA player?
These speculations and questions began to breed from the outside world, but they had little effect on the interior of the Pistons.
When everyone is in a bad state, Mo Mengchen doesn't take it too seriously, and what Westphal has to do is to replace people to adjust the state.
Houston is a well-known stamina monster. Because the team does not have a good 2nd position substitute, he usually has to play the entire first quarter. Tonight's state is so poor that Westphal can only let Hill play the entire first quarter. Go down to Houston and Mo Mengchen, let them rest for a while.
Houston has been secretly looking at Mo Mengchen, trying to find something from his face.
Mo Mengchen was uncomfortable seeing him, and turned his head: "Is there something on my face?"
"No, I'm just," Houston said, "I'm just in a bad mood."
oh?Here comes the question, is it none of my business?
Rashad Lewis, who was standing between Houston and Mo Mengchen, immediately sat on the side.
Houston sat up and said: "You know, I auditioned outside whenever I have time recently. I think my acting skills are OK, but they think I'm too tall and there are no suitable roles."
I don't want to hear it, really.
Why can't he hear my heart from my expression?
"I think that's why I didn't play well tonight, I missed some roles, I was very disappointed," Houston said.
Mo Mengchen wanted to pour some cold water on him, but he looked at Houston's face and said, "Then I don't understand you."
"why?"
"If I were you, after being underestimated by the guy who judges people by their appearance, I will try my best to prove myself." Mo Mengchen said, "For example, in tonight's game, I will vent all my grievances instead of using 5 for 0 A good performance in disguise proves they were right to let go of you."
Houston's expression eased, and a trace of usual gasp was restored: "You really think so?"
No, it's all a lie to you.
Mo Mengchen nodded and said, "Yes."
Suddenly, a whistle sounded from the sidelines.
Rasheed ripped Malone's clothes, and he received an unsportsmanlike foul.
That is T.
"I'm also to blame for the poor quality of their clothes! Why call me a T!?" Rashid beeped frantically, seeing that the referee couldn't help but give him an extra T.
Hill led by example and immediately yanked him back.
Westphal also called a timeout on the spot.
Off the court, Rashid was still dissatisfied and unhappy, wishing to ask the referee to argue for [-] rounds.
"Shut up!" Mo Mengchen yelled, "Who gave you the courage to reason with the referee?"
Shyed by Mo Mengchen's aura, Rashid said in a low voice, "It's not my fault that their clothes are of poor quality."
Mo Mengchen raised his finger and poked Rashid's chest fiercely - he had to admit that it felt very good to do this, and every time he did this to Rashid, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction - and said: "You If you don't tear his clothes, none of this will happen, now shut up and eat King T!"
Westphal looked at the score and played 4 minutes in the second quarter, 44 to 37.
The Jazz lead by 7 points.
The pace of the game was neither fast nor slow, but the Jazz took the lead, indicating that they played better and the Pistons' offense needed to be strengthened.
They usually score at least 30 points in each quarter, but now after one and a half quarters, they only scored 37 points, which shows that their offense was not smooth tonight.
Westphal flicked his pen, up and down three times.
Mo Mengchen, Houston, Jerome Williams replaced Hill, Rasheed and Louis M. Lore.
Howard Eisley is currently No. 1 on the Pistons field. Hornacek, the old gunman who blew up Houston in the first quarter, is also there. The insider Malone has just changed into the field. He is paired with the white insider Adam Keefer. The characteristic of these two insiders is flexibility. Neither of them is 210 centimeters tall. They are considered short insiders in this era, but they are flexible, can run and jump, and are very strong against pick-and-rolls.
This defense is especially aimed at the wings of the Pistons, especially Houston, a player who relies heavily on pick-and-rolls and screens.
The first tactical gesture Mo Mengchen made on the field was a scalpel.
Since the research and development of the scalpel series tactics, there are a total of five styles of play, of which the first end point of the three styles of play is Alan Houston.
Hit the scalpel, the meaning is very clear, no matter what, we must find a way to let Houston score.
No matter what.
Even if they are 7 points behind.
Brad Miller brought it up first, bringing Kiefer to the top as well.
Mo Mengchen didn't take advantage of his pick-and-roll, and turned around to lean on Eisley, who was only 188 centimeters tall. He could easily eat up this guard who was shorter and lighter than him in one go.
"Mo!"
Houston called out and ran out of chance.However, Malone's switching speed was very fast, and Mo Mengchen's ball was attached to Houston's body as soon as the pass was in place.
There is absolutely no way, Houston can only pass the ball.
Mo Mengchen used the high-ranking Miller as a pillar, and walked around the pillar like the King of Qin who was avoiding an assassination, making Aisley dizzy, and suddenly retreated beyond the three-point line with a groundbreaking step back from the contemporary point of view.
The audience was shocked.
"What kind of action is that?" Hill was taken aback.
Step-backs have existed for a long time, but shots that retreat beyond the three-point line after continuous dribbling are foolish in this era.
Because the person who did this was Mo Mengchen, although everyone was surprised and felt that it was unreasonable, they would patiently read on.
The ball flew out.
"Three non-stick?"
"No, it's a pass!"
Houston was right under the basket, received this suspected non-stick pass, and put it into the basket.
"Just move around like this, don't forget your strengths!"
Mo Mengchen shouted to Houston.
Because Mo Mengchen focused on creating opportunities for Houston, it seemed that it was difficult for the Pistons to score. In fact, as long as the scoring points were spread out, there would be many opportunities.
No one knows why Mo Mengchen insisted on rescuing Houston, who seemed to be in a bad state.
Can this ball help Houston come back to life?
And no one knows.
Jerome Williams faces off with Malone.
Before the fight started, everyone knew that this would be an overwhelming matchup, and it was impossible for Williams to defend Malone.
The gap between the two is too great.
Obviously unable to defend, he still exerted all his strength, and showed a fierce confrontation as if he could really prevent Ma Long.
Such a reckless confrontation will consume a lot of Malone's physical strength.
In this round, Malone threw an elbow and knocked Williams to the ground. Although he swung his elbow openly, it was a normal action in the interior. He turned the man over and hit a jumper.
"Want to guard me?" Malone yelled, "You'll never do it!"
Mo Mengchen does not advocate Williams' game style and style, he is too hard.
You know, he only plays about 18 minutes per game, but the frequency of injuries is the highest among all the main rotations.
Moreover, this person is so stubborn that he can't get out of the line of fire with minor injuries. Unless it is the kind of injury that is too painful to move, he will never truce.
Mo Mengchen, who cherishes his body like gold, does not advocate this style of work, but he respects it.
"You can play smarter." Mo Mengchen said to him.
Williams grinned and said, "No, I'm stupid."
Every time.
Looking at the score again, 46 to 39, still 7 points behind.
Although Malone is very aggressive in playing like this, his physical fitness is not enough to support the audience. After all, he is 35 years old.
Mo Mengchen called for scalpel tactics again.
This time it's the scalpel 4 tactic.
The scalpel has a 5th tactic, the first 3rd belongs to Houston, the 4th belongs to Mo Mengchen, and the 5th tactic can be used by anyone.
As soon as the No. 4 tactic came out, Miller's tactical weight became stronger. He stood in a high position, Mo Mengchen entered the crowd, cut out the bottom corner, and then ran to the end from the bottom corner to catch Alan Houston's off-ball screen.
Miller's pass arrives in time.
Mo Mengchen threw the ball with both hands, and Aisley flew away. He dribbled, found the rhythm and started again. He made a 45-degree three-pointer from the right and hit the board.
"When will they replace you?" Mo Mengchen asked jokingly.
Ashley didn't answer.
Mo Mengchen stayed in the frontcourt and made a tough frontcourt press on Eisley.
This was a sudden accident. No one reacted. Mo Mengchen's pressing on Eisley was full of physical confrontation. The referee ignored these confrontations. Then, Eisley was intercepted one-on-one in the frontcourt because he could not bear the confrontation.
"NONONO!"
Sloan growled and Mo Mengchen stole Eisley for a dunk.
47 is better than 44
Within half a minute, Mo Mengchen scored 5 points in a row.
Off the court, Stockton put the towel on the bench, and he knew it was time for him to play.
