the great gatsby

Chapter 283 Monta Ellis!
Before the start of the game, Gatsby greeted Anthony and Billups. They were old acquaintances. Cibi was impressed.

那一战比卢普斯砍下23分9助攻6篮板2抢断，安东尼砍下45分4助攻7篮板，两巨头合砍68分，却依然输掉了比赛。盖慈比砍下38分13助攻4篮板3抢断，在比赛最后时刻统治了比赛，击败了掘金。

It was that battle that broke out the conflict between Anthony and George Karl, and to some extent contributed to Anthony joining the Knicks. Everything in the world has a number of days, which is really amazing.

Curry came over to say hello to Gatsby. Curry smiled wryly and said, "The Knicks are really good at this operation. You formed the Big Four in one fell swoop. What about other teams?"

Gatsby smiled in his heart and said, "Don't criticize anyone. From now on, your cosmic bravery will be called too much, and the five giants will be terrifying, okay?"
Although Anthony's three new players did not play, the Knicks' nine players who played were all nine players in the regular rotation, and the three players who left did not affect the rotation at all.

The Warriors' starters are: Stephen Curry, Monta Ellis, Dan Gadzuric, Dorell White, Andris Biedrins.

The starting lineup for the Warriors is: Gatsby, Kevin Martin, Gallinari, Stoudemire, and Andrew Bogut.

This season, because David Lee was kept by the Knicks, the Warriors could only sign Dan Gadzuric as the center of the team. Anyway, they are rebuilding the team. The main purpose is to train Stephen Curry. Other positions are enough. Just use it.

Monta Ellis looks depressed. These two seasons are his peak period. Last season, he scored 25.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 5.3 assists. However, even so, the Warriors are still more optimistic about Stephen Curry, who has a fragile ankle. Curry took possession of the ball, which made Monta Ellis very angry.

In the draft last year, the Warriors snatched Curry with the 7th pick before the Knicks. Stephen Jackson was traded to the Bobcats. Ellis officially became the team boss. Quite dissatisfied, he told the Warriors management that he didn't want to pick a guard before the draft. As a result, the team chose Curry, who was in a similar position to him. After that, Ellis bluntly said: "You chose the same position as me Rookie, what do you think?"

But Monta Ellis' dissatisfaction is not considered by the Warriors' management. They are already planning to trade Monta Ellis. Although Monta Ellis has a strong offensive ability, it turns out that Ellis is not a A star who can lead the team forward, a star who can't lead the team forward, what's the use of staying?

Game start.

Bogut and Dan Gadzuric jump ball in the middle, Bogut hands the ball to Gatsby, Gatsby dribbles half court, Monta Ellis comes to defend Gatsby, Monta Ellis His defense is not good, but he has extremely fast speed and is good at stealing. If it was Gatsby in the last game, it would be really difficult to deal with such a player. He can only attack with pick-and-roll.

But this season, Gatsby's physical fitness improved by leaps and bounds. Facing Monta Ellis' defense, he resolutely called a pick-and-roll!
It takes great efforts to break through when you are sick!
Gatsby is aiming at Gadzuric. Gadzuric is not talented enough. He is a helpless choice in the Warriors. He will lose his job next year. With such a player that can be used, why should Gatsby go? Breakthrough Monta Ellis?

Gatsby used Bogut's pick-and-roll, and Gadzuri stepped on the free throw line and waited for Gatsby to go in. Gatsby smiled slightly, pulled up and shot, and hit a three-pointer!
This Warriors can't talk about defense. Their backcourt combination is Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry. They are all defensive black holes. Well, Curry's defense may be underestimated, but that's a matter of the future. This At that time, Curry's defense was very immature, and with the strength of a fringe player in the NBA like Gadzuric, it would be hell if he could defend well.

Curry controlled the ball and gave it to Monta Ellis after halftime. Curry is a very selfless person. Although Monta Ellis did not deal with him, Curry knew that Monta Ellis was the only one. It is now the offensive arrow of the Warriors. Monta Ellis directly breaks through when facing Kevin Martin. In terms of breakthrough scoring ability, Monta Ellis is really the best among defenders. He once said: "Wade can If I can do it, I can do it." It can be imagined that Monta Ellis's strength is indeed amazing.

When he joined the Mavericks, Cuban once commented: Monta Ellis is like a lightning bolt, a player who makes Barea look slower, and he can really play fast breaks alone.

Kevin Martin's breakthrough against Monta Ellis is really not easy to defend. Kevin Martin is 201cm tall, and he can't keep up with the 191cm Monta Ellis. Monta Ellis directly breaks through Martin and goes He suddenly went inside and hit a mid-range shot with an emergency stop!

Gatsby came over and asked Bogut to pick and roll. This time Zubridge defended, and Gatsby passed him directly. He assisted in the defense. Gatsby threw the ball into the sky, and Stoudemire fell violently. Buckle it!

Curry pushed up the speed, and Gatsby followed in front of Curry, but did not press hard. For a team like the Warriors, if the Knicks were serious about defending, they would probably have to clock out in the third quarter. Gatsby wanted to see Curry To what extent it can be achieved.

Zubridge came up to help Curry pick and roll, Bogut did not go up to delay, Curry directly pulled up the three-point line and shot, hitting a three-pointer!

Bogut looked at Curry in surprise, he felt that Curry was really similar to Gatsby.

Gatsby smiled and pushed up the speed. The defense can be relaxed in tonight's game and everyone can attack quickly. Except for Bogut, who was a little slower, the other four people quickly passed to the frontcourt. Gatsby Bi advanced into the three-point line, attracting the Warriors' defense to shrink, and then gave the ball to Gallinari in the bottom corner, who also made a three-pointer.

Curry received the ball and passed it to Monta Ellis. As expected, Ellis was able to play a fast break alone. He swept across the court like a bolt of lightning. Neither Kevin Martin nor Gallinari could stop it. Ellis Dodges in the air for a layup.

Gatsby was amazed, Ellis was really fast, if not for his reckless personality, better shot selection, more positive defensive attitude, and wider vision, he is indeed a very remarkable player.

If he can be more effective in the organization, he will not be ignored in his early 30s. In 17, at the age of 32, Monta Ellis was waived by the Pacers, and he has never been seen in the NBA since then.
