Chapter 148: Making the Game Exciting (Part I)
At the restart, the Spurs' tight defense on the outside completely lost the supersonic outside line, and the balance maintained by the two teams on the court was broken again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Seeing that the situation on the court began to tilt towards the Spurs' side, McMillan was a big headache. The shooter is like this, when the hand is cold or can't crack the opponent's defense, he can only be kneaded by others.
At this time, there is only one way to adjust the supersonic speed and hand the ball to the inside!
Apart from Chamberlain, McMillan couldn't think of anyone else who could carve a way out for his team in such a predicament. But in this way, it is bound to make the team have different voices.
It has always been the responsibility of the team boss to lead the team out of the predicament, the team boss is powerless, other players can earn it, but the manager cannot assign it. Except, of course, such respectable ones as Sloan, Popovich, and Larry Brown!
To adjust or not to adjust?
While Mike Milan was hesitating, another supersonic attack began.
Seeing that the team's offense began to hit the wall one after another, and watching the score gradually get closer, Chamberlain's heart was anxious. Why are the two people so similar, the Pacers led by Reggie Miller have always been a playoff powerhouse, while the SuperSonics where Reggie Allen is located are the quasi-fish belly hovering outside the first round of the playoffs?
Character, character!
The unruly Reggie Miller is the king of lore, Mr. Key, all of this, the suave Lei Yi Alun does not have!
Seeing Lei Yi Allen running on the outside, without the intention of catching the ball and hitting hard, Chamberlain knew that he couldn't count on it. The Spurs' defense is not something that can be cracked by tactical coordination at the level of supersonic speed.
Tough, at this time, only tough, like Iverson and Kobe, use personal ability to pull the Spurs' open net, and condense the team's combat effectiveness, which is the best way!
"Ridno!"
Standing in the free throw area, Chamberlain was in front of Duncan, blatantly opening his hand to ask for the ball from the outside. He hasn't forgotten what Mourning said to him in pre-season, and he doesn't lack the courage to put the team up against himself!
Seeing Chamberlain's move, McMillan's eyes on the sidelines flashed!
Mourning, who was behind Chamberlain, was even more relieved, in fact, when the team was in trouble in the first quarter, he was waiting for Chamberlain to do so, but Chamberlain didn't, so he used his own way to complete that task for Chamberlain. It's not that he didn't want to remind Chamberlain, but the meaning of his own reminder and that of others is very different, the former has the possibility of surpassing everything, and the latter is an all-star at most.
A person's success is gifted and capable, but it also needs mentality and courage!
"Zhang finally wants the ball!"
It was David Robbins who spoke, and he sighed in a complicated tone that contained expectations for his juniors and a pity that his team had missed such a player!
"Yes, he made the right choice, and the superSonics at this time need a goal full of courage......"
Hearing the words of David and Robinson, Kenny and Smith echoed him.
"Tim, I'm going to attack......"
Catching Ridno's pass, Chamberlain said to Duncan, who was stuck behind him, with a cold and blunt voice, revealing an imperative momentum!
Chamberlain doesn't like to spew trash talk, he hasn't said a word from the beginning to the present, and Duncan was stunned by what he said, and then Duncan immediately understood that Chamberlain wanted to use this way to boost his morale.
"Come on, Zhang, let me see your recent growth ......"
A competent leader of a team can never back down in the face of challenges, let alone such a critical time!
Feeling the force that Duncan used behind his back, Chamberlain, in order to maintain balance, leaned forward with his left hand without the ball, and the frequency of the dribble with his right hand increased significantly, and the small broken steps swayed back and forth quickly and slowly, but Duncan's defense was too tight, and Chamberlain's continuous shaking did not play a role in opening up space.
Seeing that time passed little by little, Chamberlain, who was shaking, suddenly turned around and a half. Duncan, who thought that the other party was about to break through, couldn't help but take a small step back in order to leave himself room to intercept his reaction.
But at this moment, Chamberlain's right foot stepped back on the free throw line, and his left leg kicked the floor.
Both were retreating, which widened the distance between the two sides.
Seeing that Chamberlain had no intention of breaking through, but chose to step back and shoot, Duncan's heart secretly exclaimed "not good".
Eager in his heart, he didn't think too much about it, so he stretched his arm as much as possible, hoping to block Chamberlain's shot with the advantage of bouncing!
It's just that the next second he does this, Duncan regrets it!
Chamberlain's jump is very weird, obviously a step back, but his body is leaning forward, and his shooting starting style is not a hook, it is an ordinary jump shooting posture!
The distance between the free throw line and the basket is too far, and this ball is too important, and the jump shot is one of Chamberlain's four highest attributes, so when Chamberlain shoots, he gave up the hook hand with a shooting percentage of no more than 5 percent!
Facing Duncan's hand that struggled to pounce, Chamberlain slightly turned his left hand to shoot, which not only ensured that he could shoot smoothly, but also ensured that his left hand would not get out of Duncan's control!
There is a mental calculation or not, "Smack," the two hands of different colors inevitably met.
At the same time, the basketball shot out crossed a straight arc, with great force, and smashed to the rebound with a "bang", and the rebounds of the smashed Spurs shook slightly, and then simply fell into the net.
Chamberlain hits the shot, the referee's whistle arrives, and the hitter fouls!
Duncan reluctantly raised his hand and accepted the penalty!
"Oh, Chamberlain, pretty ......"
When Chamberlain made free throws, Barkley, the big fat man, excitedly opened and closed his thick lips and said loudly into the microphone in front of him!
"Yes, Chamberlain did a good job, even O'Neal couldn't have made Duncan get a foul so easily......"
Duncan's control of fouls is the best of all the insiders, and David Robinson's evaluation is not biased!
"I hope that the supersonic can get out of the crisis and live up to the efforts of Zhang and Mourning......"
Kenny Smith pouted, players of their era faced a much dirtier defense than they do now, so they generally looked down on players with too soft personalities like the supersonic perimeter.
At this time, Chamberlain had already scored the ball and was rushing back to his own half, waiting for the Spurs to attack!
"Good job Zhang, just do it and I'll help you......"
Sitting on the inside, his eyes were closely watching the progressive Spurs players, Mourning took the time to whisper to Chamberlain beside him!
