Guard With a Knife

Today's Eddie Curry is only ridiculed and ridiculed in the eyes of the public.

He's probably most talked about... when it's used to satirize Isaiah Thomas for signing a shitty contract.

Everyone is laughing at his six-year, $56 million contract and his uncontrolled soaring weight. In addition, the data about his and Zach Randolph's joint average of 0.8 blocks per game in 2007 has become a negative teaching material for defensive coaches across the league.

However, people seem to have forgotten that he was once a center who could score 19+7. The one-offensive-one-defense inside combination he and Tyson Chandler formed was once regarded by the Chicago Bulls as a hope for revival.

Moreover, in this era of withered centers. He's one of the few centers with a full set of post-up skills. However, in addition to low-post offense, rebounding, support, and defense are all very embarrassing, and his physical strength is not good enough, and his persistence is not good enough.

However, Doug once saw one of his games. In the 05-06 season, he once had a blast with the not-too-old Shark O'Neal. His flexibility is not too disadvantaged in the matchup with sharks of the same size. And that night, his touch was far better than that of the Sharks, and he even completed three face-up singles.

And this is why Doug keeps motivating him to train actively.

To this end, Doug even promised him to write a song for him.

God knows why there is a dream of becoming a singer hidden in the body of this 300-pound fat man. He seems to have nothing to do with literature and art.

"Five minutes, you need to hold on for five minutes."

Doug told Eddie Curry.

Eddie Curry patted his belly: "I will let them know how terrifying 140 kg Eddie Curry is."

Forehead…….

Duger didn't know how to answer, he looked helplessly at the ripples on Eddie Curry's jersey.

He didn't expect Eddie Curry to lose 15 kilograms and still have 280 kilograms, which is a full hundred kilograms heavier than himself! !

...

beep!

The whistle sounded, and the fourth quarter came soon.

The Knicks made new personnel arrangements under the joint consultation of Doug and Herb Williams.

Chris Duhon, Doug, Jeffries, David Lee, Eddie Curry stepped onto the court.

On the other side, the Boston Celtics really replaced their starters. Obviously, they wanted to replicate the successful experience of the first half.

However, the sudden appearance of Eddie Curry made their eyebrows frown.

Chris Duhon took the ball upfield and then handed it to Doug.

Dooger passed the ball directly from beyond the three-point line to Eddie Curry who stuck Kentrick Perkins in the penalty area.

Although Eddie Curry's physical flexibility is not as good as before, his strength is still there.

Poor Perkins is known for his strength. In the finals last year, he bullied Pau Gasol like noodles, kneading him at will.

But tonight, the Knicks' two fat guys plus a short and thin guy made him feel like a 'sauna warm'... Crack! Snapped! Snapped!

Eddie Curry's impact is solid and uncompromising.

Perkins was knocked back two steps, and Eddie Curry turned around, hooked his left hand, and shot easily... Bang!

I haven't played for a long time, and the feel is a little rusty.

But it's alright.

Perkins soon saw an eagle soaring beside him, Dug went to the basket and soared into the sky, and Ray Allen, who was following him, could only sigh...Boom!

The deduction is completed.

"Who would have thought Eddie Curry would come back??"

Earl Johnson was covering his head in the commentary. He felt extremely incredible: "The happiest people should be the Spanish fans. They gritted their teeth against Perkins last season and watched him continue to use strength to bully Gasol. .But tonight, the Knicks' two big fat guys pissed them off."

"In fact, there is Snoopy, and Snoopy didn't let Perkins take too much advantage, although Perkins is stronger." Charles Barkley suddenly sighed: "It seems that with Not all of the contracts Siah Thomas signed were rubbish."

"Oh, Charles. Before seeing Eddie Curry's defense, I suggest you don't say such things." Kenny Smith immediately emphasized.

At this time, Lagalondo on the field also used Perkins' pick-and-roll to quickly insert into the penalty area.

But just as he was about to take off for a layup, he suddenly found Snoopy flashing directly behind Eddie Curry.

He quickly passed the ball to Pierce, who was following up behind him. Pierce feinted with the ball, jumped away from Eddie Curry who was like a stake, and then took off directly to try a dunk.

But just when he jumped to the highest point, Duge came over with a sliding step and jumped into the air... Crack!

Although Pierce turned a dunk into a layup at the last minute, the final result still did not change, and his shot Doug fanned out of bounds!

When the Celtics re-served the ball, they finally realized that the Knicks had already defended the 23 zone defense, and Doug appeared at the 4th position.

Be a clumsy center plus a nimble defense master.

This picture makes it hard not to think of Eddie Curry's time with the Bulls when he first entered the league, when his inside partner Tyson Chandler was also of this type. Block shots, rebounds and help defense.

Although the two did not dominate the league as the Bulls executives expected at the time, they were considered to have performed above the standard.

And now, Doog gives him a feeling of returning to his youth.

The Celtics didn't believe in evil, and Paul Pierce hit the basket again, but he was still disturbed and could only pass to Glenn Davis.

Davis hits a jumper... Swoosh!

He hits the shot.

But this is an acceptable loss for Doug.

Back at halftime, the Knicks were still Eddie Curry singles Perkins in the penalty area.

This time, Eddie Curry found the touch, and his right hand hook shot completed a precise strike on the basket.

This made Doc Rivers of the scene frown.

He originally wanted to crush the Knicks in one fell swoop, but now it seems... the battle has been dragged into the quagmire again, and they must win in hand-to-hand combat.

Swish!

Ray Allen hit two points from the outside.

Looking back, Eddie Curry fouled Perkins again.

At this time, anyone could see that Perkins was going crazy emotionally. He didn't expect that a player with a garbage contract who was sentenced to death by the media would take whatever he wanted from him, so he put on a fierce posture, hoping to scare Eddie Curry by intimidation.

However, Eddy Curry is no Pau Gasol.

This kid has a solid record in the New York Police Department, so he is not afraid of the grinning teeth of this so-called defensive fighter. He even declared disdainfully before walking to the free throw line: "You look like you have moldy jelly mud all over your face. Don't pretend to be tough in front of me. When I'm playing with guns in the street, you still don't know what to do." I'm wearing crotch pants."

Swish!

Swish!

Made two free throws.

"Am I a little handsome?"

After the goal, Eddie Curry posed a classic Elvis Presley pose to Doug.

Doug gave him an angry look, obviously he didn't want to judge Eddie Curry on his appearance. In Doug's mind, Eddie Curry and Zach Randolph are comparable in appearance, the only difference between the two is: one is frosted and the other is matte.

boom!

Ray Allen tried another three, but missed.

The basketball rebounded high.

Perkins immediately squeezed Curry away, and even had an obvious elbow swing in the process of getting stuck. But because Curry is really rough and thick, he chased after him without feeling, and tried hard to take off to grab the rebound... Unfortunately, his efforts did not result in physical vacancy, and his feet left the ground. The distance on the ground is even far lower than the length of his little brother after being hardened.

Perkins grabbed the rebound as a matter of course.

And, take off strongly...Boom!

He smashed the basketball into the hoop with both hands.

He pulled a basket hard before landing on the ground.

However, it's a pity that the arrogant he forgot that Eddie Curry was under the basket, or he just wanted to spray Eddie Curry face to face.

But for whatever reason.

Unfortunately something happened.

His right foot stepped directly on Eddie Curry's instep, twisted and deformed immediately, and then fell hard to the ground with a bang.

This scene caused the North Shore Garden, which was still cheering and screaming, to panic instantly.

The Celtics have already lost Kevin Garnett, and if they lose Perkins as a defensive gate... the consequences are unimaginable.

Boston's team doctors rushed to the court for the first time, and they immediately diagnosed Perkins.

Amidst Perkins' gasps of pain, they made the decision to cut off the sneakers, which meant that Perkins would definitely not be able to play this game again.

As the stretcher rolls in, all Celtics fans start worrying about another thing, which is... Will Perkins come back for this series? ?

If they can't come back, can the Celtics still eliminate the Knicks?

This question makes all Boston fans feel uncertain.

When TNT's camera showed the Celtics bench, all the players and coaches had worried and extremely worried expressions.

"If it is said that Kevin Garnett's reimbursement for the season caused the Celtics to withdraw from the championship, then Perkins' injury is very likely to cause the defending champion to be eliminated in the first round. Although it is a bit rude to say this now , but ... the Knicks were really lucky."

Earl Johnson said in the commentary: "They may stage the second black eight miracle in team history."

Charles Barkley frowned, but he still didn't say anything.

At this time, Kenny Smith spoke: "Even if the Knicks complete the black eight, it is still a discounted black eight. But I have to admit that the Knicks are really lucky. They rely on the Eastern Conference team to squeeze in at the last moment. The playoffs, and then... Now the Celtics, the No. 1 Celtics in the Eastern Conference, collapsed inside. This must be a joke from God."

"Although Perkins' injury is very beneficial to the Knicks, please remember that the Knicks are only 3 points behind the Celtics so far. In fact, since the beginning of the second half, they have recovered 8 points. . The two sides are at least evenly balanced."

Charles Barkley emphasized this point.

But he knew that his emphasis would not mean much.

Because, if the Knicks win in the end. All critics will definitely say that Perkins was injured and left.
