Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 307 Provocation
Roy's performance was stumbling, but the Trail Blazers went smoothly. Although facing some teams that have been strengthened, such as the Heat, and some already strong teams such as the Lakers, they will still lose the game helplessly. At least they had the last laugh in most games, firmly ranking in the top three in the Western Conference.Surprisingly, the first place in the Western Conference is actually the Spurs, who have always liked to play late. Maybe it was the experience of being eliminated by the Trail Blazers in the playoffs last season that aroused their fighting spirit?

For the Trail Blazers, the third place in the Western Conference is already very good. Although the team reached the Finals last season, the regular season record can only be ranked sixth in the Western Conference. Of course, this has a lot to do with their injuries. big relationship.But even if there is no injury, no one thinks that they can rank among the top three in the West. Obviously this season has given everyone a big surprise. It seems that they still have the strength to compete for the championship.

However, Roy still got a chance to rest during this period, which is also to allow him to play better in the next game.McMillan gave him more rest time purely out of love for him. Roy also knew the good intentions of the head coach, but he was still training desperately during his rotations and did not regard these time as rest at all.McMillan has heard about Roy's madness. He once severely warned Roy not to practice too much. Roy promised very well, turned around and continued to go his own way, which also buried his future. There is a hidden danger.

On December 12, local time, Roy followed the team to Dallas to challenge the Mavericks after a two-game rotation. This can be regarded as a strong dialogue in the West.Judging from the starting lineups of the two sides, it is basically the tip of the needle, and the characteristics of each position are similar.This time McMillan put Roy in the starting lineup again, but he didn't plan to give him more playing time. The Mavericks' shooting guard Stevenson is a man who dared to challenge James. Although his statistics are not very good, But he is good at talking trash and making small moves on the court. James has expressed his dislike of him in public more than once, but Stevenson still goes his own way.

This time, it was Roy's turn to face this guy.

Stevenson's qualifications are very old. He was the 2000rd overall pick in the first round of 23, but he has been an unknown little figure in the early stages of his career, and he did not reach his peak until he played for the Wizards.Of course, what makes him well-known to the world is the grievances between him and James. Before the first round of the 2007-08 playoffs against the Cavaliers, he said when evaluating James: "He is definitely overrated, the Cavaliers There are villains." This remark not only angered the fans but also James. The two began to compete with each other in the series and sparred with trash outside the game. James' friend Jay-Z even wrote a song to insult Steve. Vincent.

Even after leaving the Wizards, Stevenson did not show any signs of improvement. He is still as big-mouthed as he was back then, and he likes to chatter on the court, using various small means to drive the players who are playing against him crazy.But I have to admit that this guy still has some strength. On the defensive end, his toughness is exactly what the Mavericks need from the outside line. On the offensive end, his fixed-point three-pointers can also help the team.

Roy felt Stevenson's malice from the very beginning of the game. He didn't know whether it was his own idea or the coach's instruction. Anyway, he just followed him every step of the way, and then spit out trash like a machine gun.Ye Feng couldn't see it. He repeatedly forced the Mavericks' players to switch defenses while holding the ball, but Stevenson didn't care about it, and still stuck to Roy like a piece of brown sugar.

Facing Stevenson's dirty defense, Roy was a little annoyed, but he still ran out of position step by step and raised his hand for the ball.However, when Ye Feng's pass was just in his hands, Stevenson appeared beside him lingeringly, using various parts of his body to prevent Roy from making the next move, and his mouth was not clean I thought about it, hoping to defend by provoking Roy.

Roy tried hard to suppress his anger, turned around with the ball, dribbled the ball under the crotch, changed the center of gravity, shook Stevenson and shot directly outside the three-point line, but unfortunately the basketball hit the frame and the rebound was caught by Chandler Walk.Roy shook his head and hurried to his own half, but Stevenson still followed him, as if the Mavericks' offense had nothing to do with him at all, and his only mission was to talk trash.

"God, I deliberately didn't guard against you just now and you didn't even make the shot. If I stretched out my hand, wouldn't I have to cap you off the sideline?"

"As far as your ball-handling skills are concerned, my grandma can see through them. It's just me doing it on purpose to give you space to shoot..."

"I bet you don't even think about scoring goals in front of me in this game, what yellow mamba? It's just a dead snake..."

Roy pushed Stevenson away expressionlessly, and accelerated to the backcourt.He was really tired of this guy. Roy wasn't in a good mood at first, and the negative energy was just suppressed in his heart, but now he couldn't suppress it.

After Nowitzki made a shot, the Blazers made a free throw in the backcourt. This had nothing to do with Roy. He turned around and ran to the Mavericks' half court. Of course, there was another person hanging beside him-Stevenson.Ye Feng seldom dribbled the ball across the half court by himself. This task was usually assigned to Miller, so he had enough time to observe Roy's state.When Ye Feng saw that he was being harassed by Stevenson again, he unceremoniously squeezed between the two of them, and whispered to Stevenson, "Keep your mouth clean, you If you were so eloquent about your game skills, I guess you would have won the championship long ago, right?"

Stevenson didn't retaliate, he knew that his trash talk was of no use to Ye Feng, and his goal was still Roy.It was also impossible for Ye Feng to be by Roy's side all the time. After he sprayed a trash talk to Stevenson, he went to participate in the team's offense.Stevenson smiled disdainfully, and began to make noise in Roy's ears again, and it was not the same, really didn't waste his career for so many years.

Roy simply let his teammates go four-on-four, and he just looked at Stevenson so coldly, with anger that couldn't be concealed in his eyes.If there is no foul on the court, he really wants to punch this disgusting face and knock all the trash talk of this guy back. No wonder James is so tired of him, this guy What a shame!
