Chapter 119: You only have 3 seconds to prepare (the first change asks for a monthly pass)
Ben Gordon is in the limelight right now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a rookie last season, he won the league's Sixth Man of the Year honor with a strong performance, and he only narrowly missed Howard in the Rookie of the Year vote.
He has completed many phenomenal performances, and his performance in the fourth quarter is even more admirable, a very typical big-hearted terminator. Last year's playoff clash with the Heat cemented him as a leader of the Bulls' Young Guard, and many Chicago fans even began to refer to him as Ben Jordan.
Zhou Zheng's performance this season can be described as a mixed reputation, but in any case, the sudden rise of the team has become a fact...... At least he's far more well-known than other first- and second-graders.
Ben Gordon has never been cold to Zhou Zheng, and when the general manager of the Bulls insisted on electing Zhou Zheng this summer, he voted against it.
When he learned that Klaus was going to use himself or Lohrdeng as a trading chip, his heart was full of incomprehension and unhappiness. He thinks that Zhou Zheng is just a defeated general under him, why should he come from behind?
"Give me the ball. β
Ben Gordon had the ball past Devin Harris just after half-time.
After he shook twice, he directly used the strength of his strong upper body to forcibly break through Zhou Zheng's defense.
When he rushes to the free throw line, he makes a pull-up jump shot...... Swish!
"Beautiful shots. Drexus immediately commented: "Ben Gordon is the core of Chicago's rebuild, with outstanding offensive ability, extremely comprehensive scoring skills, and the ability to take over the game in the fourth quarter is among the best in the league. There is no doubt that he has a bright future. Maybe we'll see him at the All-Star Game in Las Vegas next year. β
At the same time, Zhou Zheng came to the three-point line with the ball.
Ben Gordon defended up.
Syllable!
Zhou Zheng completely threw off his defense with just a change of direction...... At the moment when Zhou Zheng changed direction, Ben Gordon's body quickly swung to the other side like a pendulum that had been plucked.
Zhou Zheng didn't expect it to be so easy.
Defensive issues have always been a shackle for Ben Gordon to become a higher-level star...... It will take him a long time to find out.
After breaking through the defense, he quickly rushed into the loose box, and under Dwight's defense, he smashed the basketball to the rebound, and the basketball quickly rebounded.
Andre Bogut jumped high, and everyone thought he would dunk directly. But his years of basketball habits caused him to fall to the ground, pause and jump again, by which time Dwight's defense had pounced, and he had to choose to throw a shot, but fortunately the basketball went in.
Zhou Zheng glanced at Bogut helplessly.
He was speechless, and passing the basketball to him had a feeling of a cow chewing a peony and destroying the heavens.
"It's really not entertaining, wasting a wonderful assist from Tiger. Drexus commented: "The Australian is the quintessential FIBA centre-forward. β
The game went on, and they were playing loosely with each other. The rookie game has a similar pace to the All-Star Game, it's all about entertainment, and no one wants to defend seriously.
Although Zhou faced Ben Gordon with a strong urge to end his college career, he still didn't have the kind of defense that he was involved in, and he didn't want to be the one to spoil the atmosphere.
The game is played with staggered scores.
Zhou Zheng and Chris Paul were firmly in control of the first-year team's tempo, and they combined to provide 17 assists in the first half. The two sides played to a 56-56 draw.
At the start of the second quarter, Zhou Zheng and Chris Paul returned to the bench hand in hand, Nate Robinson and Deron Williams became the starting guards, and as soon as they came on the court, the pace of the game deviated from the trajectory... Deron Williams couldn't control both Nate Robinson and Rutherhead at the same time.
Fortunately, the sophomore team over there went into dunk mode.
Iguodala, who signed up for Saturday's slam dunk contest, completed an earth-shattering windmill dunk on the court, and two minutes later rushed into the restricted area to switch hands and dunk with a lever.
Two consecutive dunks sparked Nate Robinson's expressiveness, and he began to break into the box and play his moves.
The four players selected for this year's slam dunk contest are: Nate Robinson, Zhou Zheng, Desmond Mason and Andre Iguodala.
"Hey, Tiger, they're already warming up for the slam dunk contest. Aren't you going to go up and deduct two?" Chris Paul teased Zhou Zheng: "There is no prize money and no trophy for the fourth place." β
"I'm not going for the bonus. Zhou Zheng told Chris very seriously: "I want to win the championship." β
Chris looked at Zhou Zheng seriously, he was sure that Zhou Zheng was not joking.
But... He still found it a little incredible...... Tiger wins the slam dunk championship?
He couldn't help but think of the scene in the Orlando sports training camp where the audience watched the Zhou Zheng test...... That was a deeply ingrained impression.
Based on the friendship between friends, he still took the spit back to his stomach.
"No matter what the outcome is, I'll go and cheer you on. Chris Paul said.
In the exchange between the two, the game time slowly moved forward, when the opposite head coach Silver Fox Harris replaced another Bulls guard Nocioni, the three Bulls players began to control the rhythm and slowly opened up the difference.
By the thirteenth minute of the second half, the first-year team was already trailing by 14 points.
At this point, there were still more than six minutes left before the end of the game.
Rodney finally remembered who he was as the head coach, and he quickly asked for a timeout, and then asked Zhou Zheng, "What should we do next?"
This is his subconscious behavior, because he has made Zhou Zheng the head of this team.
Zhou Zheng frowned and pondered for a while: "Let's play an unprecedented three-point guard tactic." β
As he spoke, he glanced at Chris and Delon with an inquiring look.
The two barely thought about it and nodded quickly.
It's a tempting proposition for them.
They are also looking forward to this picture, after all, the three of them are the three point guards of the 05 session that are rumored to be rumored in the outside world, and if they can fight together, it will definitely be a very gorgeous gluttonous feast.
"And what about the other two players?" Rodney continued.
"Villanueva, Channingflye. Zhou Zheng said by name.
"Okay, you five on the field!" Rodney happily decided, just let the kids play to their heart's content.
Rutherhead was unhappy with Rodney's decision. As host, he felt that his power was being hollowed out.
Champion Lang also couldn't accept that he was pressed to the bench at a critical moment.
However, Zhou Zheng doesn't care about their feelings.
He led the men and horses to the court quickly.
"Alright, guys, it's fun time. Next, let's fight for victory. β
After Zhou Zheng came on the court, he told the second-year players loudly.
His original intention was to remind the opponent to enter the official duel mode, and he didn't want to take advantage of the danger to give someone a slap in the face.
However, Ben Gordon sneered: "Sorry, rookie. For us, the fun time has just begun. β
"Hahahaha!"
Devon Harris and Lore Deng laughed cooperatively.
"What are you guys presumptuous?" Zhou Zheng muttered: "I really don't know the so-called joke." β
"Give me the ball. β
Zhou Zheng gritted his teeth and asked Chris Paul for the ball.
He took the initiative to meet Ben Gordon, at the moment he didn't want to stop anymore, it was time to take out the old accounts from two years ago and settle them.
"I know you're a hot superstar in the NBA right now, and Chicagoans hold you high. But..."
"Next, I'm going to break down your left side, then get past your teammate Lore Deng at the free-throw line, then jump into the depths of the box, score with both hands before Howard comes in with a defensive stoppage, and when I smash the basketball into the basket, you can just turn around. β
"Stay focused. You only have 3 seconds to prepare. β
