Guard With a Knife

"Oh! Overthinking one's abilities!"

Amidst the cheers and cheers from the audience, Kevin Garnett lowered his focus and took a step forward. He knew that Doug had the ability to shoot on the spot, and he didn't want to give Doug a chance to shoot directly: Although he vowed to emphasize that he would rush into the penalty area, who knows if he will play tricks?

Kevin Garnett is quite a bit defensive.

However, just as he was stepping forward.

Duger suddenly started, his speed was faster than before, and his large forward strides almost wiped out the distance between the two in an instant, until he was in front of Garnett. Garnett was experienced, and he quickly Turn your body around, step sideways and quickly retract inward.

He assumed a defensive posture and got ahead of Doug.

With this defensive posture and the advantage of his height and arm length, Doug has almost no chance of making a layup. He still doesn't have the physical condition of a super guard to break through and dunk inside.

However, his basketball IQ is still there, and he is not helpless. When he takes a step inside the free throw line, he immediately completes a quick change of direction, adjusting from attacking from the left to the right, which makes his passing arc wider.

At the same time, Stephen Marbury ran back into the penalty area from the other side, and Lagalondo was blocked by Jeffries.

Duger made a decisive decision and suddenly stopped in an area one step outside the reasonable collision zone. Then, he quickly feinted and Garnett immediately approached the defense, but he was experienced and did not raise his center of gravity. The hand movements of the ball... He deserves to be the one who won the best defensive player, and his defensive strength made Doug look at him with admiration.

But this still didn't stop Doug from passing an ultra-low ground pass through his crotch... Garnett's high center of gravity cannot be changed.

Since the kitchen war with Scarlett, Doug has been able to try more ground moves, which of course includes passing angles.

Stephon Marbury catches the basketball behind Kevin Garnett.

He was about to score a layup when Perkins suddenly moved across and blocked his way.

At the same time, Doug turned around quickly, and he quickly circled to the open space, leading Stephen Marbury to pass the basketball.

Dug received the basketball, and although Garnett chased up quickly, his body was already halfway sideways, which made Dug finally have a way to go straight to the basket in front of him.

Doug didn't hesitate at all.

Take a step directly and take off suddenly!

At this moment, he doesn't have any other thoughts.

Go ahead!

It's a slam dunk!

When Doug volleyed into the air, Kevin Garnett made another attack from the side. This was his calculated pace. He deliberately left Doug a straight path to the basket, in order to put him directly under the basket. overthrow! Only in this way can the resentment in my heart be swept away!

But... a little different from the plan, Doug's take-off speed, explosive power and decisiveness all exceeded his expectations, which made him only seek physical contact again in order to get more chances to block shots!

puff!

His upper body hit Doug first, which caused Doug to change direction in the air, and the upward trend of his body stopped instantly and showed a downward trend.

Seeing that he was about to slide down, Duge gritted his teeth fiercely, and using his last balance ability, he suddenly raised his back in the air, and his right hand holding the ball smashed to the basket desperately... This was his last struggle before losing his center of gravity. If he doesn't make a dunk, he'll be knocked straight off the court.

At the same time, Garnett's palm was already coming towards his face. He didn't go for the basketball, but wanted to pull Doug down directly with the idea of ​​fouling... But when his hand was on Doug's head, Between the electric light and flint that was about to be pulled down... bang!

Doug's right hand dunked the basketball into the hoop, and he pulled the hoop... The unstoppable downward trend was finally contained.

At the same time... bang!

Garnett slapped him hard on the head and from the forehead to the bridge of the nose.

Doug immediately felt a burning pain.

At this time, the fans of Madison Garden had already erupted into an astonishing wave of noise for this positive face button, and Lao Du on the sidelines even stood up and pumped his fist excitedly, shouting loudly: This is my son! !

However, Duge blinked his painful and burning eyes, and a fire of ignorance rose up!

Although he heard the whistle of the referee at the basket, he still decided to give Garnett a warning: he must not be allowed to continue to be so unscrupulous!

So, he quickly let go of the basket and dropped down.

At this time, Garnett, who was livid and unconvinced, still stopped at the basket.

He was standing right under Doug. This is not a good position, and it can even be said to be a dangerous position. It is easy for the dunk player to step on his instep and twist his foot after landing!

Sure enough... bang!

When Doug landed, his left kneecap first hit Garnett's right knee, and at the same time as the loud noise, Doug's right foot stepped on Garnett's instep.

At that time, Duge twisted, and he staggered back two steps before stabilizing his body.

After stabilizing his body, Duge, who was furious, rushed forward at that time. But as soon as he took a step, Garnett had already clutched his right foot and fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

The referee glanced at Garnett, and he reached out to stop Doug. Then he turned around and added a T to Garnett.

Standing under the basket, he witnessed the whole process of Garnett's defense with his own eyes. If the slap he slapped on Doug's face can be explained by a blocked shot, then the stepping after landing can completely add a malicious foul.

Of course, his immobility can also be explained by the slowness of his actions due to his anger at the failure of the defense. After all, he did not have any obvious leg extensions. But why flop? It is obvious that the person who twisted his foot was Snoopy, why do you have to fall to the ground first with a guilty conscience?

This is the logic of the referee.

From his point of view, it does make sense.

Even ESPN's three commentators didn't express any dissent after watching the entire tape.

"In this game, Garnett has created many disputes. In fact, in the last round, he almost led to a group all-out attack. Although this action is not enough to eat T in the penalty scale of the playoffs. But... in order to avoid The conflict worsened further, and sending him off is the best result. No referee on duty can tolerate this kind of continuous side-ball defense under his nose." McBrin emphasized in the commentary booth.

His position is fairer.

In contrast, Reggie Miller thought it was a deliberate flagrant foul.

And Bill Wharton said that this was a normal defense, at most it could only be said that the defensive action was a bit frizzy, and it was definitely not malicious.

However, he agrees with the referee's call for the T, and he does not want the game to turn into an uncontrolled brawl. Because in his heart, he thinks that the Celtics should have a higher pursuit: "Kevin's return to the locker room to rest is the best thing. The outcome of this game is not important, if because of an irrelevant routine The damage caused by Sai Er's big fight is beyond the reach of Bostonians."

This sentence made Reggie Miller very uncomfortable. The Indiana Pacers were able to get their hands on the championship trophy back then, but because of the Auburn Hills Palace brawl, his championship dream was completely shattered and he had to retire sadly.

So, he deliberately said sourly: "Is KG still planning to get up? Snoopy has been pulled away, and Zach Randolph has also been specially isolated. No one will choke him again. He's got to go off like a man."

At this time, the ESPN cameraman pushed the camera to the scene, and Garnett kept saying "I'm finished", "I'm finished" and "I'm finished"!

His expression was painful, not like a fake.

Boston's team doctor looked very dignified, they focused on checking Garnett's right knee.

Then, they asked the staff to quickly push the stretcher.

"Oh, my God, it must not be the knee injury. KG's right knee has an old injury. If it really hurts the right knee, we are completely finished!!" Bill Wharton's face suddenly became heavy, and he started Namaste prayer.

Doc Rivers, who was standing on the sidelines, also looked sad.

When Kevin Garnett was pushed out of Madison Garden, he received an initial diagnosis from the team doctor: "This season...KG will hardly come back!!"

This is definitely a nightmare for Rivers. He never dreamed that Kevin Garnett would be reimbursed for the season because of a defense. Needless to say ... this will have an extremely heavy impact on the Celtics playoffs. Originally in his plan, the Celtics could win at least two or even three championship trophies. After all, the Celtics who won the championship last year have not even fully adjusted. And this season, the perfectly integrated Boston once achieved the best start in history with 29 wins and 2 losses. This makes everyone feel that Boston will start the road to consecutive championships.

But now...Kevin Garnett has a knee injury.

ESPN slowed down the shot of Snoopy landing, and everyone let out a gasp when they saw super slow motion of Doug's knee colliding with Kevin Garnett's knee.

Because they clearly saw that Garnett's knee was deformed by the impact.

"This is definitely a disaster for Boston. Their championship trophy this season is very likely to be destroyed in this unconscious collision." McBrin said regretfully: "Snoopy's bones are too hard!"

"Although it is rude to say this, I still think KG is fully responsible for this injury. Snoopy did nothing wrong. He just landed normally. Garnett stayed where he was. If he had walked away earlier, it wouldn't have happened at all." Reggie Miller said, "Actually, it was his right knee that hit Snoopy's thigh last time."

Reggie Miller's words are quite mysterious.

But it has been recognized by many fans, especially Lakers fans.

Bill Wharton didn't speak. As far as these two offenses and defenses are concerned, Doug is indeed not the culprit.

"He's just too hard on his knees!"

The scene of the collision was replayed, and McBrin sighed again.

...
