Chapter 170 Elbow to the Flesh
After the warm-up, Gominski was waiting for a jump ball in the midfield. Although he was promoted to the Hornets' starting center, he still felt uneasy when he saw Li Shengli face to face.
This is not because he is cowardly. In fact, he has been at his peak, but even at his peak, he can't compare to the former teammate in front of him. What he is really worried about is... will Li Shengli wear a pair of pants? They are all good friends, but he is a scumbag who refuses to acknowledge his fault when he pulls up his pants?
"Lee, I know you despise Johnson, but we have to make an agreement first... If we really have to fight, don't drag me into it." Gominski said half-jokingly, "Seriously, You don’t really want to take action against Johnson, do you? I think Malone and the others have been staring at Johnson?”
"Guess it."
"I guess he is going to be unlucky. Ma Long is going to be very sad at this stage. I guess it won't be your turn to take action, right? I think it's better to be gentle and don't go too far!"
"You still care about Johnson?"
"It's not that I care. After all, we are still teammates. I always want to say something to him."
Bad guy!
Li Shengli felt that Gominsky was definitely a bad guy, but...I don't know if Johnson would appreciate his favor.
"Okay, let's have a good game and cheer up!"
"Of course, I'm not that easy to deal with. Just come here."
…
During the jump ball stage, although Gominski shouted for Li Shengli to come over, he was too aware of Li Shengli's abnormality. He didn't bother to jump and went straight to the backcourt to defend. After all, whether the jump ball was successful or not was not a big deal. Li Shengli passed the ball to point guard Stockton with great ease.
The Jazz attacked in the first round.
Stockton held the ball. Although this was Li Shengli's Jazz debut, there was no need to feed the ball too deliberately in the first round. He threw the ball directly to Malone, who was opposite Larry Johnson.
Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.
Malone was determined to defeat Johnson, and Johnson was even more motivated. They are both power forwards, Malone has become famous, and he has just started, so he naturally wants to prove himself with the data against Malone.
However... Johnson seems to have misjudged the situation.
Malone didn't make any move at all after receiving the ball. He stayed on the spot and waited for Johnson to come forward to defend. Everyone watching was stunned, because it was clear that he was going to fight Johnson, and when Johnson really When he stepped forward to defend, Malone immediately raised his iron elbow and turned right...
boom!
This elbow is really meaty.
Johnson's face turned green. Fortunately, he didn't hit his waist, but it was enough for him to drink a bottle. The arm blocking his elbow was numb from the shock. When he came to his senses, his eyes were bloodshot, and he rushed straight towards Malone. .
Going to fight?
But this is only the first round!
The fight can start in less than 10 seconds?
Not to mention that the Jazz's home fans were crazy, even the referees were confused. For them, conflicts between players were too normal, but... they did it right after the game started. Is this the playoffs? How much hatred must there be?
Suddenly, the court was in chaos. There has never been a conflict in NBA history that happened so quickly.
…
First it was Larry Johnson, who rushed over with a fierce move. What I have to admit is...his physical fitness is very strong, otherwise he would not have defeated Mourning in the previous game, but strength and weakness are not There is no absolute, only relative. Compared with Ma Long's muscular body, he obviously fell behind.
But at this moment... Li Shengli took a step forward and stood side by side with Ma Long. The two of them just stood there without any extra movement, waiting for Johnson to rush forward.
"Brother, do you think he dares to take action?"
"Stop talking, this loser is cowardly, don't scare him!"
"It seems that he has been frightened. Look...he can't even move."
The two of them did not lower their voices at all, and the whole scene fell silent instantly... Tyrone Corbin and Jane Verhenris consciously took a step forward and stood on the front line. As for Stockton, he was used to this kind of scene. , pick up the ball aside and practice shooting by yourself.
What the hell?
Is this definitely the time for a fight?
Everyone was dumbfounded. It felt like the Jazz didn't take Johnson seriously at all... One was practicing shooting, two were chatting, and there were two role players standing on the front line to protect him, looking calm and peaceful. picture.
On the other hand, Johnson...
That was really a mute eating Coptis chinensis, and it was hard to describe the pain. He was elbowed by Malone in vain. He wanted to take action but found that he couldn't see enough, because the Jazz had four, and the Hornets only had him, and Bogues didn't need it. He said that he was not dumped at all. Newman and Gominsky also looked down on him. The only remaining player, Jeff Malone, who had transferred from the Jazz, was even less likely to be counted on.
what to do?
This situation is very embarrassing!
Johnson was even more angry, but he couldn't move forward or retreat.
"Johnson, forget it, don't be impulsive!" Gominski pulled Johnson and acted like a good old man. He was really afraid that Johnson would be beaten to a pulp.
"Shut up, when will it be your turn to take care of me?" Johnson spread his anger on Gominski. In his opinion... Gominski, Curry, Bogues, and Li Shengli all They were in the same group, and the kind words and persuasion were more like ridicule.
It's not my turn to care about you?
You deserve to be beaten to death!
Gominski's face was ashen, but he didn't say much. If he had a fight on the court and lost the game, he would be guilty of a greater crime. Even if he was angry, he tried his best to suppress it.
"Li, I take back what I just said, you'd better beat him to death!"
"You should have had this awareness a long time ago."
Gominsky was still saying good things to Johnson at the beginning, but he found that he was a little pretentious. On the other side, Johnson watched Gominsky and Li Shengli talking in low voices. The more he watched, the more annoyed he became, "Trash, you are Are you from the Jazz? If you don’t want to stay with the Hornets, you can leave early!”
crazy!
This man is crazy!
No one expected Johnson to attack his teammates so viciously.
Seriously speaking, in normal times, Johnson is really not so mentally retarded, but at this juncture... he was elbowed by Malone, scolded by the Jazz, and no one in his teammates liked him. His anger caused his IQ to plummet.
However, the clay figurine is still angry!
Over and over again, Gominski couldn't hold back his anger. Fortunately, Boggs, who was on the side, saw that the situation was not going well and held him down, preventing him from being impulsive. The Jazz were dumbfounded... Because no matter how hard you play on the court or against your opponent, it's unjustifiable, but to angrily rebuke your teammates for no reason is really unjustifiable.
…
"To be honest, I look down on this waste." Ma Long was a little surprised and his disdain was evident.
"Me too, this guy is really disgusting!" Stockton echoed.
Li Shengli's feelings were deeper than the two of them. They all say that character can be seen at the gambling table, but on the court... the dark side of some people's psychology has also been infinitely magnified. After many factors, Larry Johnson's despicable nature has been revealed. Nothing left.
"Li, do you have any comments?" Ma Long asked.
"Leave the defense to me, let him into the penalty area, and I will knock him out!"
"Okay, then I'll attack first and peel off his skin. I can't stand this kind of trash."
When Stockton listened to what the two said, he didn't feel that it was excessive at all. On the contrary...if he was not a defender, but a stronger inside player, he would have wanted to go up and kick him.
