Chapter 91: Jiang Da Jiang Er, thank you, thank you very much!
This is a real tactical lecture, Popovich took up all the halftime time, explaining a series of issues such as tactical selection, conversion, mutual cooperation, and control of the rhythm on the field for the players!
By the time he finished explaining, there was no time for the Spurs players to digest, because the third quarter of the game was about to begin!
The DJ was quite dedicated, the Spurs fell behind at halftime, which did not make him lose his enthusiasm for work, he loudly called the names of every player who entered the court, trying to mobilize the lifeless atmosphere here, but the sparse applause of the audience obviously announced that his hard work was in vain!
In the deserted atmosphere of the whole court, Chamberlain followed his teammates to the court, and at this time, everyone from the Timberwolves had already appeared on the sidelines. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info and the Spurs' heaviness, each of them looks in a good mood, the 17-point gap gives them the power to laugh unbridledly, and the victory seems to have been safely pocketed by them!
Chamberlain may have been angry at all this, but now he doesn't have any special feelings, all he thinks about now is how to prove himself, to Popovich, to everyone, and to himself.
The opening was the Spurs' possession, and the Timberwolves, who expected the Spurs to chase points, cautiously shrank into their own half.
Seeing this, Parker, who was in possession of the ball, made a gesture.
The point guard, as the commander on the court, must have the ability to read the game, and as Parker's gestures played, the other players of the Spurs began to run according to Popovich's pre-game arrangement!
Parker's gesture represents the meaning of the "inside ball" tactic, in which Chamberlain's task is very simple, he only needs to give Duncan the space to the inside and pay attention to the rebound!
The Timberwolves' loose defense against Turkoglu allowed him to easily receive a pass from Parker from beyond the three-point line. Seeing Turkoglou take the ball, Oxlade-Chamberlain immediately came up to cover and put out the defending Olowokandi. At this time, Duncan suddenly turned into the three-second zone and stuck Garnett, and as soon as Duncan stuck the position, Tekoglu's pass arrived.
It may be that the halftime break dissipated Garnett's anger a lot, and Duncan, who received the ball, "slammed" twice and sitted hard, squeezing Garnett into a big step under the basket. But just when Duncan wanted to make a move, the "wolf king" who came back to his senses slammed Duncan's right side, and then stretched out his long arm to reach out and ask for the ball.
Garnett's fingers on the ball in a hurry didn't use his strength at all, but because Duncan was about to shoot, the ball was out of his control all of a sudden, crooked like a drunk, and it didn't fly very high, just look like it was falling down!
At this time, Garnett's long arm played a role again, and he, who was already closest to the ball, pulled the basketball down in his hand as soon as he twisted around, and then the long arm extended, and the ball went to the hands of Sprewell, who had turned back!
At the start of the third quarter, the Spurs were in trouble.
Sprewell forced Ginobili, the only one who came to defend urgently, and dunked the ball into the basket, and the difference in the court became 19 points!
In an instant, the situation on the court immediately reversed, and the Spurs, who originally wanted to turn over, were once again overshadowed in the first half.
After another half, Parker gritted his teeth and passed the basketball into Duncan's hands again. Duncan isn't a paranoid like Kobe, and basketball is a five-player game. Under Garnett's octopus-like entanglement, he didn't have a good chance to shoot, and passed the ball in his hand to Chamberlain!
The "inside ball" tactic became a "twin tower tactic".
Rough goods like Olovocandi were Chamberlain's least feared opponents. Chamberlain's footsteps moved to the left side of the void in small pieces, and in the confrontation between Olovocandi's guesses and waiting, Chamberlain suddenly changed his rhythm and jumped up as soon as he raised his hand.
But it was just a feint, and after successfully shaking Olowokandi's center of gravity, Chamberlain got such a momentary opportunity, and his whole body turned inward, leaving Olowokandi behind him and killing the Timberwolves under the basket.
Garnett is a defender who can cover the entire penalty area, and after finding out that Olovo Kandi was deceived, he immediately opened his long arms, and his slender body suddenly blocked the front of Oxlade-Chamberlain!
Two people on the sideline in the three-second zone collided with a "bang". Chamberlain, who was caught in the whirlpool of Garnett's defense, turned over again, and at the same time stretched out his hand around Garnett's armpit, the target - Duncan!
Duncan is selfless, but that doesn't mean Spurs players are left to their core. Just like Parker did, Chamberlain in this offense was mainly about creating opportunities for Duncan to fight back.
With no one to defend, Duncan catches the ball and dunks! It stands to reason that this is a very beautiful combination, but the fans who broke their hearts in the first half did not make any indication for this, and they quietly chose to watch coldly!
Just now, Chamberlain's play made Garnett breathe a sigh of relief, and in the Spurs' half, Garnett raised a finger.
Cassel, who understood Garnett's thoughts, passed the ball out at the moment when the bodies of the "Wolf King" and the "parallel goods" were staggered!
Olowokandi, who completed the switch, blocked Duncan, so that the Spurs' interior line was blocked by Garnett. Garnett, who caught the ball, looked at the rookie in front of him, he deliberately created a misalignment, he deliberately wanted to hit Chamberlain, that is, to humiliate the Oriental in front of everyone.
As for Garnett's psychology, Chamberlain also figured it out instantly. If it had been a few days ago, maybe he would have been timid and wouldn't have believed in himself. But after these days, tormented by all those noisy things, Chamberlain's eyes began to shine.
Scenes of the past, like slides, crossed Chamberlain's mind - the clumsiness of debuting on the court, the disappointment of the draft, the bench career that couldn't wait for the court, the cold reception on the All-Star, the apparently biased suspension..... Everything, except for a change of environment, he was almost the same as in his previous life, humiliated by the powerful, and lived a mediocre life!
In the past life, how could it be muddy in this life!
Looking at Garnett, who was close at hand, the idea of challenging him and defeating him was irrepressibly generated in Chamberlain's heart.
This thought was like a rippling torrent that ran through Chamberlain's limbs at once! Through Chamberlain's chest!
Thinking like this, Chamberlain stuck to Garnett's body fiercely.
Garnett held the ball and looked at Chamberlain's focused and tense face, his cheeks twitched, his mouth cracked, and he squeezed out an incomprehensible smile: "Rookie, are you ready"?
At this time, Chamberlain had no time to respond to the trash talk of the "wolf king", but he knew that Garnett's counterattack was about to begin!
