I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 138 Depressed OJ Mayo
For this ball, OJ Mayo is holding a fire.

He beat McGrady in the preseason, but not many people paid attention.

What everyone is discussing is the state of McGrady, as if any random person can beat McGrady.

Mayo wanted to yell in everyone's ears:
Maddie!That's Maddie!One of the Big Four!Super star!just me! OJ Mayo, can beat him in his rookie season!Just like Iverson challenged the basketball god in his rookie season!
This time, in the high-profile regular season, he decided to blast McGrady again!
Everyone should know how good I am this time!

After the game started, Mayo held back his energy and wanted to find McGrady one-on-one.

However, opportunities are hard to come by, the more anxious he is, the less chances will come.

In the opening stage, the Rockets controlled the rhythm.

Yao Ming successfully jumped the ball, then immediately settled under the basket, received a pass from Tracy McGrady, and scored a dunk.

The Grizzlies served, and the ball just came into Mayo's hands, when the Rockets actually misplaced the defense, and Ci Shiping clung to him.

Under the savage interference of the beast, Mayo was unable to advance with the ball and had to pass the ball.

Under the tight defense of the Rockets, the ball did not return to his hands.

The Rockets steal the ball and attack. McGrady receives Scola's point, pulls up a jumper and scores two points.

To put it bluntly, it's not a good time for Mayo to get the ball every time. In addition, the situation is controlled by the Rockets, so he has never had a chance!
Later, the young Mayo gradually came to his senses.

It's not that I'm unlucky, but that the Rockets' defense is very targeted.

They know how powerful they are, so they deliberately don't let McGrady defend themselves, but use the small forward Ci Shiping to defend in a misplaced position!
Ci Shiping is simply a beast, strong, fierce and desperate, his defensive ability is as solid as his big thick elbows, I dare not fight him hard at all!

Seeing that half of the first quarter has passed, Mayo hasn't had a chance to face McGrady for a breakthrough.

Mayo wanted to cry but had no tears.

And his personal dilemma is also a concentrated reflection of the team's plight.

The Rockets' defensive intensity is very strong.

The inside line, Yao Ming, is a pillar of the sky, and he stops under the basket, and the needle will not penetrate and the water will not penetrate.

Although Alston and McGrady on the outside are weaker defensively, the addition of Beast Metta World Peace has brought the Rockets a long-lost iron blood and toughness.

With OJ Mayo, the opponent's most active offensive point, completely locked out, the Grizzlies' offense came to a standstill.

The game is like two ends of a seesaw. When one side is pushed down, the other side will be lifted up.

The Rockets' offense was extremely smooth. Whether it was Yao Ming's strong attack at the basket, McGrady's outside shot, or even Ci Shiping's fixed-point three-pointer, they all steadily sent the ball into the basket.

At 7 minutes and 20 seconds into the first quarter, as Alston received Yao Ming's transfer ball and hit a three-pointer, the score was stretched to 18:7.

Adelman replaced some of the main players, leaving only Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady in the starting five.

OJ Mayo is almost crying, the beast is finally gone!I have gained the power to breathe!

Fortunately, McGrady is still on the court!
You still have a chance!

As long as McGrady is defeated, who will remember that he was tortured by that beast so hard that he couldn't breathe!

OJ Mayo asked his teammates for the ball, and after getting the ball, he went straight to McGrady.

The NBA league is a rivers and lakes, and the rivers and lakes make people grow old. Every year, a group of young swordsmen will challenge the long-established heroes of the rivers and lakes, hoping to step on the dead bodies of their predecessors to reach the apex of the attention.

As the top four shooting guards in the league, Tracy McGrady has long had such awareness and is used to being challenged.

Therefore, when Mayo rushed towards him with a fierce look in his eyes, he understood what the other party was going to do!
He has experienced this kind of challenge countless times, and each time it ended with those young juniors fleeing in embarrassment and knowing that "there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky".

He believes it will be the same this time!
With a cat waist, McGrady stood in front of OJ Mayo.

But Mayo also learned the lesson of the preseason matchup, and made a false move before the start, and the ball seemed to be out of his control.

McGrady saw an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he shot to copy the ball.

Unexpectedly, Mayo suddenly pulled the ball back with a backhand, avoiding McGrady's shot.

Sam Gold!

OJ Mayo used a trick Sam Gold to break through McGrady!

The audience was in an uproar, Mayo's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he actually played McGrady with this kind of streetball moves!

At this moment, the audience couldn't help but think of the man who went his own way and dared to become the god of basketball in his rookie season!
New Iverson? !
The exclamation of the audience is the best stimulant.

OJ Mayo was a little flustered. After passing McGrady, he walked straight to the basket with brisk steps. Now he is thinking about how to dunk the ball into the basket beautifully. His offense left his name in history.

He was so smug that he didn't notice that a big white man was already past him.

Even if he noticed, he wouldn't care too much, he is confident in his speed and impact, as long as he rushes up, no one can limit him!

McGrady can't do it, let alone others.

The guy who posted it really didn't break his own ball directly, nor did he slam into himself roughly like Artest.

Instead, stick to yourself, keep putting pressure on yourself, and keep moving at the same time, blocking your way directly to the basket.

In order to get rid of the opponent, Mayo began to correct his forward route, but he did not notice that the change of his route had fallen into the opponent's trap.

Before he knew it, under the interference of his opponent, he plunged into the crowd.

When Mayo suddenly realized that he seemed to be timed, he hurriedly jumped up high with all his strength, trying to put the ball into the basket.

But it was too late. On one side, a tall man like Mount Everest had already been waiting for a rabbit. He swung his palm and slapped the ball away.

Mayo also fell heavily to the ground under the influence of inertia.

He lay on the floor and looked up, only to see that the person blocking the shot was Yao Ming, the inside pillar of the Rockets.

However, Mayo is more concerned about who pushed him into a desperate situation unknowingly.

Looking from the bottom up, the little Chinese giant is as tall as a mountain.

Mayo turned his head again, only to see a strong bald man running towards the Grizzlies' half court in a low-key manner.He didn't see the excitement and joy after the conspiracy succeeded at all.

When things are done, go away and hide your merits and fame!
His number is 31, exactly "President" Sean Battier!

Battier came off the bench after Metta World Peace, the Beast, came off the field for a break.

Different from the beast's unreasonable, iron-blooded defensive style of steel and fierceness, Battier's defense can be called soft and soft.

Battier's defense is smart and solid, with excellent defensive skills and overall defensive awareness.

Artest is the strongest defensive point on the field, but Battier has connected the defense of the entire team into a line.

It's hard to say which of the two is better in defense, both of them are top 3D.

In terms of restricting superstars, Metta World Peace may cause more damage to the opponent, but for lesser players, Battier's overall defense effect is better.

Unfortunately, Mayo is a lesser player.

In the next few defenses, Battier used his excellent defensive wisdom to arrange him clearly.

After the first quarter, the poor OJ Mayo scored only 2 points in the technical statistics.

However, the number of mistakes has reached 3 times!
Mayo is very depressed, but there is someone more depressed than him, and that is Joey Dorsey who sat on the bench for a whole quarter!
He was forgotten by the coach on the bench again!
