Chapter Twenty-Three: The Fierce Battle Is Raging
"Why don't you go and make up for it?" D'Antoni was furious on the bench, watching Eddie House being teased, shaken and thrown to the point of blood all over his mouth, and he felt his entire Phoenix face be disgraced: "Why did you watch him smash the damn basketball into the hoop?" β
D'Antoni is not a defensive-oriented manager, but he still can't tolerate the image of an opposition wreaking havoc in the box. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
D'Antoni was furious, and the incident was a disastrous disastrous humiliation for Eddie House personally, and the Suns were no better off as his home team.
After all, he's wearing a Sunball jersey.
When the chaos was over, Eddie House was sent out of the arena and he went to the hospital for treatment, where he needed several stitches in his mouth and lost one of his front teeth.
Although the medical expenses will be paid by the insurance company, no one can reimburse him for the loss of face, and he must bear this humiliation. This scene is bound to become a classic shot that has been replayed countless times.
"We're going to win this game, it's enough to lose face once." D'Antoni said toughly: "Stephen, Raga, Sean, Boris, Amare, you have to let that kid at Stanford know that this is the NBA, this is not the NCAA where he can go wild at will." β
At the same time, Zhou Zheng said openly and honestly to Zach Randolph and others on the bench: "I need your help, I don't want to leave South Korea with failure and broken love at the same time." I've got to win this fight. β
McMillan looked at Zhou Zheng unexpectedly, he felt that Zhou Zheng was too naΓ―ve, and he begged for people to ask for this gang of old villains who were waiting for death...... These guys are sluggish in training, and can they be expected to play desperately to win in a lonely pre-season game? Dream on! It's not a live game in the United States, so the old fritters won't do their best.
"Ahem..."McMillan cleared his throat, and he beckoned to Zhou Zheng: "Tiger, let's play the No. 3 tactical ...... next"
Before McMillan could finish his sentence, Zach Randolph walked over: "I want to play, boss." β
Zach Randolph speaks with a street style that makes him a boss and he is used to referring to every coach as a boss, but not every coach likes to be called a boss. Nate McMillan may be black, but he thinks he's made a break from the streets.
McMillan glanced up at him, and his tone was slightly sarcastic: "It's just a pre-season game, are you sure you want to play?" β
"I've got to help this kid." Zach Randolph pointed at Zhou Zheng: "You can't let him lose his girlfriend and his debut here." β
McMillan was extremely surprised, he glanced at Zach Randolph and then at Zhou Zheng, his expression could no longer hide his surprise...... This scoundrel drug dealer is willing to help a top Stanford student? There was actually chemistry between them?? How can it be?
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"Okay, let's play the number five tactic next." McMillan pulled out the tactical board: "Travis, Ruben Patterson, Darius Myers and Zach, you guys play with Tiger." Zach, you are the core of this strategy, you have to try to pull out of the box and Tiger to do the blocking. Outlaw, Patterson, and Miles, you're ready for Tiger's assists!! β
McMillan threw almost all the villains onto the pitch in one fell swoop, and he wanted to see how far the Tiger could take this army of bad boys. It can be regarded as a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
When the head coaches of both sides used the long timeout to make personnel tactical adjustments, the two commentators of South Korean TV were already embarrassed to the point that they couldn't do it, and they were still babbling about the Chinese defenders' ball control skills and poor ability to break the press...... Now, pop bang!!
As Eddie House was shaken by Zhou Zheng and fell to the point that his mouth was covered in blood, their faces were also slapped and swollen by a combination of one on the left and one on the right.
They finally realized that their previous judgment was too arrogant, and they looked down at Zhou Zheng's information.
And then...... Like a deer caught in headlights.
Soon, however, they came back to life with the astonishing thickness of their skins...... This is the racial talent of the Republic of Korea.
It turned out that the Chinese guard was this year's No. 5 pick, and he led the little-known Stanford University to win the NCAA championship in March this year, knocking out the giants of North Carolina.
"It's no wonder that the dribbling ability is so prominent, and he is very confident, and he plays with an American style."
"yes, it's not like a traditional Chinese defender at all. I think a player as good as him should disdain to join the Chinese national team, maybe he has become a naturalized American. β
"Yes, he has the soul of an American hidden in his body."
The South Korean commentator changed his posture and knelt and licked, after all, their current suzerainty is the United States.
Drip!
The whistle blows and the players return to the pitch.
Both sides switched to the main force.
Stephen Nash launched a fast-break offense as soon as he got on the court, and the Suns launched a lightning-fast offense. Zhou was in hot pursuit, but Nash didn't fight him, and after half the court, he relied on Stoudemire's block to drill into the three-point line, and then quickly passed the basketball to the other Sean Marion in a ground-hitting manner.
Outlaw was a little caught up and had to watch Marion jump shot...... Swish!
Stephen Nash's assists are anything but a drag, and the Suns' offensive mix is simple and efficient.
That's what makes up the Suns to break as fast as mercury.
To be honest, Zhou Zheng really wants to lead the team to fight against the Suns to the fullest, and he had such thoughts when he was at Stanford.
But now is not the time to monetize your ideas. Zach Randolph and Patterson had a long, fulfilling and laid-back vacation, and their bloated, fat bodies could not support high-intensity running.
Zhou Zheng slowly brought the ball to the frontcourt.
After his teammates were in a good position, Zhou Zhengcai quickly took a breakthrough. Stephen is a great point guard, but his defense is his weakness and the only one. His slightly slow lateral movement failed to stop Zhou Zheng's change of direction and breakthrough.
Zhou Zheng almost flashed through his defense like lightning, and then galloped towards the three-point line, and defensive expert Ragabel quickly followed it.
He tried to give Zhou Zheng a ball behind his back.
However, when Zhou Zheng entered the free throw line, he jumped into the paint area with a sudden jump, and the moment he made a shooting feint, the little bully Stoudemier suddenly seemed to be startled by the sound of gunfire and flew all over the sky...... He didn't do much in defense when he debuted as a high school student, and relied more on his amazing jumping ability to solve problems.
It may be okay to meet others, but when you meet Zhou Zheng, who is as cunning as a fox, is undoubtedly self-exposed.
Zhou Zheng spread his wings as he struck the ball deftly into the hands of Zach Randolph in the depths of the box.
Randolph received the basketball and spun around and jumped in an attempt to make an earth-shattering dunk...... But when I jumped into the air, I thought about it, and I still don't want to be embarrassed, so I flicked my wrist and the basketball was put into the basket.
"It's time to lose weight." Zhou Zheng patted his belly.
Randolph wasn't angry, he just smiled.
The first time he saw this kid from the parking lot, he felt like he was in love, because this guy didn't treat himself as a villain like other rookies did. Although he will use his humor to mock himself, but... It's comfortable to listen to.
Randolph liked the feeling of being seen as a normal person, so he liked Tiger.
Back in the half, Stephen Nash and Stoudemire completed a classic pick-and-roll combination... After he and Stoudemire completed the pick-and-roll, he quickly stuffed the ball to the fast Stoudemire, who received the basketball and just flipped Randolph's defense away, and then easily broke into the box and scored.
These two are talented in defense, and their skill points are added to offense.
Yibian fought again, and Zhou Zheng was still slowly pushing the basketball forward. At this time, the Trail Blazers still trailed by as many as 17 points, and if they didn't make sure they hit the field from the field, they had no chance of winning.
Zhou Zheng came to the front court with the ball.
D'Antoni made a big swing of his hand, and defensive specialist Ragabel and Stephen Nash completed the exchange...... The Suns' outside defensive gate is directly opposite rookie Zhou Zheng, which is Kobe Bryant-level treatment.
"You won't have another chance to break through." Ragabel smiled gentlemanly, but everyone knew he was a predator.
"I think, I have." Zhou Zheng replied very seriously.
"Just try." Ragabel said with a smile.
He hooked his fingers as if Zhou was shaking Eddie House before that round.
And at the moment when he hooked his hand, Zhou was like a cheetah and took his sharp steps with great speed.
