the great gatsby

Chapter 500 Big dog; tough front!

With a wave of Gatsby's hand, the court seemed to become empty. He slapped the basketball in his hand casually, butler's whole body tensed up. He knew that once Gatsby broke through, he would see through the shocking situation.

Gatsby switched the ball from his left hand to his right, and his right hand suddenly accelerated, from his right hand to his left, and his body moved accordingly, just like a bow and arrow that had been stretched into the shape of a full moon. Le's side jumps over!
Butler wanted to use his strong body to go up to slow down, but at the moment of contact, he felt Gatsby's reaction force, and Butler found that his body was out of his own control, and he staggered back.

"No, I can't let him pass!" The stumbling Butler forcibly controlled his body and wanted to stop him, but he stepped on the air and fell to the ground!
Gatsby ignored Butler who fell to the ground, and just ran with all his strength, and he stepped on the bull's wall in just two steps. He received the ball, his feet landed on the ground at the same time, his knees bent, like a tense The strong crossbow suddenly broke free from the restraints and rose into the air!

"Don't think about it!" Noah clenched his teeth that were not in order, and suddenly lifted into the air with a ferocious face, and intercepted Gatsby in front of him. Gatsby controlled his body and collided with Noah, the inside beast. With a straight lift, it seemed as if it had escaped the gravity of the earth, and it was pulled up a few inches abruptly!

Gatsby supported Noah with one hand, and slammed the ball into the basket with his right hand, and the basket made a loud bang!
"Wow!!!"

Madison Square Garden is finally in full swing!

"Wow!!! It's a blast! Gatsby knocked Butler down, and went to the basket to dunk the seven-foot-long Noah! Awesome, amazing!" Yang Yi was stunned.

Gatsby seldom played so vigorously, but once he played like this, it would definitely detonate the atmosphere of the audience.

"It's really amazing. In the past two years, Gatsby has been completely different from when he first entered the league. At that time, Gatsby used skills more to cover up his physical flaws, but now his physical fitness is at the point guard position. It's definitely on a historical level.

You see, Butler was knocked down just now. Rather than being knocked down, it is better to say that Gatsby knocked Butler down forcefully. This is a very remarkable thing.

Butler is a small forward. He has always been known for his toughness, but he was crushed in a head-to-head confrontation with Gatsby. One can imagine how physically tyrannical Gatsby is today!
If you pay attention, you can find that the current Gatsby has used less skillful moves when breaking through, because there is no need for it! "

Zhang Lili's words made fans think deeply - it turns out that Gatsby has grown to this point!
The Clippers didn’t have a game tonight. They had already played their first game. They played against the Thunder in Los Angeles. They played like a thunderbolt. This season, the Thunder is even stronger. The inside line is stronger, but after all, it can't match the Clippers.

Paul and James specially turned on the live broadcast to watch the Knicks game. In their view, only the Knicks are the real enemy.

At the same time, San Antonio, the Thunder, and the Golden State Warriors are also paying attention to this game. They all know that they are fighting fiercely in the West. Once they break through the West, they will eventually face the behemoth Knicks!
The Knicks have established a dynasty, which is different from ordinary teams. Even if they are tyrannical, some teams can only win a championship and stop there. Some teams can win a second championship, but when it comes to the third championship, there will always be There are various accidents that prevent them from taking the last step, which is why there are so few dynasties.

After the establishment of a dynasty, few can continue to be strong, but the Knicks are different. Their cores are all cultivated by themselves, and they are all under rookie contracts, which are so-called child labor contracts. In the short term, they will not be able to succeed at all. Don't worry about contracts.

Even after the child labor contract period, with a big dog like the Knicks, they can pay a lot of luxury tax when the team can't even make the playoffs. When the championship is over, it becomes frugal?
This is the most terrifying thing about the Knicks!
Other teams can't see when the Knicks will be able to decline. This is why so many super teams are born, because the Knicks' heyday is too long.

If it’s an ordinary team, they would avoid the limelight if they thought about it. You win the championship this year, and the championship next year. In the third year, the salary space is full, the core is old, and the role players have to be replaced. Contradictions among the players have also emerged, you will always decline!

But the Knicks, year after year, no one knows when he will decline, and the core of their team is also getting old. If they don't work hard, their golden age will be wasted, and they will even run away. Once the core is gone, the team has no choice but to rebuild again, so why not just fight it out!

Seeing Gatsby beating Jimmy Butler abruptly in a head-on confrontation, Paul gasped: Gatsby's physical fitness has reached this level!
James looked bitter: "Gatsby won't suffer at all against me. His weight and height are slightly worse than mine, but his strength is not inferior to mine. Of course, I can use my height to take advantage of him, but he Hit me, and I'm not sure I can defend him alone!"

"In other words, the Knicks can use Leonard to defend you, but we can only use you to defend Gatsby. In this way, Redick can't be on the court because he can't defend Leonard." Paul road.

James nodded: "Maybe we can only let Barnes play, but his three-pointers are far inferior to Redick, which is a big blow to our offense!"

"Maybe don't think so. It's useless to play the Knicks just because they are very difficult to defend. Redick may be worse on defense, but the improvement in offense is immeasurable. To beat the Knicks, There must be three points!" Paul's face was full of hostility.

Back at Madison Square Garden, the atmosphere at the scene had reached its peak, because Gatsby was giving full play to his offensive talent, and Jimmy Butler's face was a little pale. He had tried his best to defend Gatsby, but he couldn't defend himself. Can't help it!
Butler feels that he is not defending a point guard, but defending LeBron James. It does not mean that James is stronger than Gatsby, but that Gatsby changed his flexible style of play and adopted a horizontal push. Sudden style of play.

If he passes Butler by dodging or using skillful screens without the ball, he can comfort himself that this is not his problem. After all, he uses screens. This Chinese style of play requires the entire team to work hard together. limit.

But Gatsby is just face to face!
Is this to defeat him completely?

Well, that's what Gatsby thinks. Jimmy Butler is a tough guy. It's fine if he's normal, but he always wants to gain fame from him. It's fine once or twice, but it's the same every time. You have to teach him a lesson too!
