Chapter 206: When the Shaquille O'Neal's Beast Instincts Take Over

Early in the second quarter, Karl had Yu Fei, who had played the entire first quarter, sit out for a rest and sent out a lineup that was hard not to read into.

Sprewell, Ray Allen, Red, Horry, Pachulia.

No point guard, no small forward.

The point guard duties would rotate among three players capable of averaging 20 points a game.

Soon, Red's point guard privileges were revoked.

His ball-handling skills were insufficient for the responsibilities of a point guard, but during this time, Red showed another side of himself.

It was a side that wouldn't come out when Yu Fei was on the court.

Red was even more selfish and egocentric than imagined.

Especially when the set plays began, he was like a ball-hog machine, the ball movement stopping each time it hit his hands.

There was only one way Red dealt with the ball, and that was to create shooting opportunities for himself at all costs, even if it meant disrupting the tactical play, demanding Pachulia set screens for him.
