Chapter 169: The confrontation between Howard and the fans

Lakers fans and Howard's side had a lively fight, but the Lakers' side also fell into the disadvantage, not just with Howard's two powerful dunks to overtake the score. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The offensive tactics are not fluid, and the pressing defense makes it very difficult for the Lakers players on the court to run.

Besides, the lineup that Luke Wharton sent today is a bit more aging.

With the exception of Thomas Robinson, they are all players over the age of 30.

Although Thomas Robinson was drafted by the Kings with the fifth pick that year, his NBA or his entire life is fighting against tragedy, even if it is inspirational, it has to be said that he has not developed until now. I have hard work and my body is good, but I still can't keep up with my skills.

Thomas Robinson received the ball at the top of the arc and did not have a good passing opportunity, the ball could not be passed, and in desperation, he made a strong breakthrough, which fortunately caused a foul on Millsap.

One of two free throws.

But looking back, Bazemore (a former Lakers veteran, the Lakers also chased him in the offseason, but he very firmly rejected the Lakers' pursuit. The reason is simple and straightforward, the Lakers did not want him even with a base salary. This is not the first player to say this, and the current hot player of the Heat, Hasson Whiteside, also explicitly rejected the Lakers in the summer, and the reason is the same. Maybe when the Lakers were still the dominant dynasty at the beginning, even if they didn't give the maximum salary, these guys would flock to them. But the Lakers are no longer as important to the league as they once were. The original league was in a difficult period of development, the league needed a signboard, and the Lakers formed by the old Bass just became the signboard that opened up the situation for the league's southern and northern wars, so that the league could develop to its current prestige, but the current league does not need such a signboard, they need to change to a new signboard, so there will be basketball reasons to veto Chris Paul's deal, there will be various superstars who reject the Lakers, and there will be the rapid decline of the Lakers, so that they will gradually disappear in the eyes of fans. This is the ruthlessness of the business alliance, and poor Kobe Bryant finally retired in the ruins under this kind of suppression, which can't help but make insiders feel cold. The top of the arc responded, Schroder went around the bottom line and used the cover of the bottom line to block Hurtas's pursuit, and the moment he received the ball, he started to break through the inside line, and Mozgov made up for the defense, and the easy plug went to Howard.

Hit the board.

The opening six points swept all the team's scores.

Looks like you're going to put on a good show on the Lakers' home court, and the more you boo me, the worse I'm going to make your team lose.

Hurtas's mid-range shot was interfered with by Schroeder, who was chasing the defense, and immediately launched a counterattack, Schroeder's ball passed badly, but it was wrong in and out and gave it to Bazemore.

Another Lakers veteran, a three-point shot from the bottom corner of the open position.

It seems that it is a large gathering of Lakers veterans, ready to give this down-and-out old master a look.

Fortunately, there is still a man on the Lakers' side who is not afraid of the ground, no matter how strong you are, don't want to suppress my Nick Young, a block and a three-point shot.

Help the Lakers bite the score and not be completely disabled.

However, the age gap on the back line is really big, and the big one is still a white player, Schroeder's body is not a little bit stronger than Hultas, strong burst, throwing and then hitting.

So far, the Eagles' offense hasn't missed a single shot.

Fortunately, Hurtas was able to hit an open shot to save face.

Thomas Robinson was crazy about rebounding in the opposite position with Millsap, but he was almost at hand, and he couldn't put the ball into the basket.

Schroder passed Huertas again, dodged the defender, and gave Howard under the basket, another two-handed dunk on the spot, and the momentum sank.

The Lakers quickly served the baseline ball, wanting to take the opportunity to play a surprise shot, but Nick Young's breakthrough ate a big hat from Howard.

Instead of giving the Hawks a counterattack, Howard and Schroder continued to cover from the top of the arc, and the two cooperated to drive the Lakers' defense into the restricted area.

As soon as Schroder tossed, Howard almost took the ball out of Mozgov's hand and made another empty dunk.

On the Lakers' side, it is really unlikely that Mozgov wants to force Howard inside, and Mozgov has to pull to the mid-range to take advantage of Howard's in-depth space to shoot, but fortunately, there are still some hand hits in the mid-range today.

After a couple of missed shots, both teams kept the attacking tempo down.

Huertas felt very good today, a block, Howard couldn't make up for it, and the mid-range shot went in again.

On the Hawks' side, five people participated in the offense at the same time, constantly passing the ball, completely tearing apart the Lakers' defense, and Schroder made an empty three-point shot.

Hurtas counter-attacked, and cut into Thomas Robinson in the middle at the right time.

With enough run-ups, it is impossible for the defender to defend against the ball. Single-arm slam dunk.

answerball!!!

Millsap immediately responded with a mid-range shot that was very accurate.

The two sides fought very fiercely, and it seemed that the Lakers seemed to bite the score, but compared to the way of scoring, the Lakers did not tear apart the Hawks' defense, and it was relatively too difficult to score.

On the other hand, every goal scored by the Eagles is much easier. Every offense almost completely tore apart the Lakers' defense.

Before you know it, the Hawks have a six-point lead over the Lakers.

This is the head coach who came out of the Spurs faction, seemingly unfazed, but inadvertently, when you look up, you find that you are already behind the opponent.

It's a little bit of a boiled frog in warm water.

Of course, this is not to say that the current Hawks will be able to reach the level of the Spurs. After all, there is still a big gap between the two.

Whether it's the quality of the players or the quality of the manager.

At this time, there were four and a half minutes left in the first quarter, and the two sides had already begun to switch benches.

However, Zhao Wei did not play. Luke Wharton brought on Ingram, Lue Williams, Clarkson and Larry Nans, while Mozgov remained on the court.

Speaking of substitutions, both teams are also very interesting.

The Hawks' bench strength is also in the top five in the league, while the Lakers' bench is even crazier, and they still maintain the first place in the league as a substitute.

It can be said that the matchup of the substitute lineup may be more enjoyable than the main lineup.

But just when everyone was ready to enjoy this beautiful showdown, the spoiler appeared.

Everyone noticed that Howard was still on the court at this time.

Lue Williams breakout throw is interfered with.

Howard grabbed the rebound and didn't give it to the guard, and dribbled and counterattacked.

Seeing that Howard dared to behave like this, Lakers fans immediately began to boo excitedly.

Howard dribbled all the way and booed.

Outside the three-point line, Howard put his back on Larry Nance and fed back to the three-point line Surgical Wall.

Korver took a step outside the three-point line, raised his hand, and the three-point net was simply in.

Clarkson missed the basket with a strong attack, and Bazemore broke through to hang Mozgov and hoist it high to Howard to score again.

Howard became the main star on the court for a while, and his offensive and defensive performances were eye-catching, as if the more boos the Lakers had, the better he played.

The difference between the two sides also came to 12 points.

Although Lu Williams came up with his own trick to make a foul, he hit both free throws. However, on the Hawks' side, it was Howard again, attracting the defense to give Muscala, who was open on the outside, three points and another score.

Fortunately, Blake, who was on the court at this time, grabbed the frontcourt rebound inside, and forced it to hit it at the same time, causing a foul from Howard and stopping Howard's arrogance in the first quarter of the game.

The penalty is also hit.

But at this time, when there was still more than a minute left at the end of the first quarter of the game, the two teams had a total of ten main players, and nine had already played, but Howard was still on the court.

You must know that the physical exertion of the inside line is very large, and it is full of muscle collisions all the time, which is no less than the Spartan Arena.

Therefore, the center will generally be replaced first to rest, and the opponent is still a team like the Spurs faction that focuses on all the people.

"I heard that Howard is a Lakers veteran?" Zhao Wei didn't know when he came to Luke Wharton's side again and asked mysteriously.

"Cut." Luke Wharton angrily threw Zhao Wei a big wink.

"I'll just ask you a question, why do you think of me like that!" Zhao Wei complained dissatisfied.

"Are you tickled?" Luke Wharton looked at Zhao Wei with ill will.

"Cut, if you don't say it, you won't say it. Can't I ask someone else? Zhao Wei was not happy to leave.

Luke Wharton grabbed Zhao Wei and said, "Don't play your little trick on me." Everyone on earth knows something, and they still come to ask me, do you deliberately bury me? ”

"Hey, hey." Zhao Wei smiled awkwardly.

When Luke Wharton left the Lakers and was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, it was more or less with Howard's arrival for a reason.

"I'm not as stingy as you are." Luke Wharton leaned back with ease.

"Hey, aren't you so afraid that reporters will photograph you as a head coach and don't do your duty? You know, we're on the other side right now. Zhao Wei poked him.

"What are you afraid of, let him vent first. The best is yet to come! Luke Wharton smirked.

"Cut. If you let me play, I'm not going to make him complacent. Zhao Wei said confidently.

"You? Forget it. Even if you're on the court, you'll still be dunked. Luke Wharton glanced at Zhao Wei and said lightly.

The two of them are off the court, you and I are talking about each other, and the game on the field is getting more and more lively.

Howard is constantly competing for performance, trying to stretch the score as wide as possible when he is off the court, so that the fans who boo themselves can see their power, they are not qualified to boo themselves.

But the Lakers' unafraid bench is not far behind, and every time the score shows signs of getting bigger, there will always be someone who suddenly comes out and bites the score again.

Muscala received another pass ball in the bottom corner, and the bottom corner flew into the three-point shot.

The starting point of this attack is still Howard.

As the first point of tactical offense, or the initiation point of offense, it is a relatively new thing for Howard.

When Howard reached the pinnacle of his career with the Magic, the year he reached the Finals, he could be the main point of attack on the inside.

But slowly, Howard and the team continued to have conflicts, and then even got injured, and he finally left the Magic and came to the Lakers in disgrace.

At that time, the Lakers had Pau Gasol, Kobe, and Steve Nash, although all three of them were old, and even two of them were no longer in their peak condition.

But when it comes to their strength, it still makes every team dare not be careless.

Pau Gasol is known as the most skilled big man, and the only big man that Zen Master Jackson recognizes who can dribble in the fast break is Pau Gasol.

Steve Nash was a multi-year assist king, a man who carried forward the bombardment tactics, and one of the future Hall of Famers at an all-time point guard.

Kobe Bryant's strength naturally goes without saying, so Howard gradually became a blue-collar player.

Howard eventually left the Lakers in disgrace and joined the Rockets.

However, the Rockets still have James Harden in full possession, and Howard has become a more thorough blue-collar player than the Lakers, and his average number of shots per game is not even comparable to that of several other average players.

That's why Howard, who does this kind of task, is already very unfamiliar.

Clarkson dodged to the inside, shook it, and the time difference dodged the blocks of Howard and Muscala and hit a throw.

The difference between the two sides returned to 11 points.

Muscala missed his third three-point shot. At this time, there was only time left for the last attack of the two sides, Ingram controlled the ball and used the change of direction to burst in, and when he raised the ball for a layup, Howard suddenly came over, and the judgment was very accurate to press on Ingram's ball and break the ball.

At this point, there are ten seconds left until the end of the first quarter.

After receiving the ball, Millsap turned around and made a backward jumper, which was supposed to be the most ordinary jumper, but at this time something went wrong.

Under the basket, Blake and Howard twisted together.

When Blake tried to grab the ball, Howard rushed over and kicked the ball away. And the referee became the fuse and awarded the ball to the Eagles.

Blake quit, both of them were angry, their eyebrows were cold, and no one was convinced.

Although Blake is short, he has a lot of strength and constantly spews trash talk.

"You coward." Blake scolded mercilessly.

"With your little strength, you can only find a job in this kind of team. It was just a small substitute for me. Howard scoffed.

……

The scene was momentarily chaotic.

The referee intervened in the middle, constantly trying to separate the two.

This happens to happen to the bench on the Lakers' side.

Zhao Wei also came over.

Zhao Wei just walked over, and he didn't stand still.

A big hand pushed at him, and Zhao Wei was caught off guard and pushed on the head.

The hair was messy.

It turned out that the two were arguing more and more fiercely, and when Howard was pushing Blake, he was suddenly dodged by Blake, and he couldn't stop it, and he just pushed Zhao Wei behind.

"What are you going to do?" Zhao Wei glared dissatisfied.

Howard was still apologetic, but when he saw the person in front of him clearly, Howard's apology disappeared and he glared at Zhao Wei angrily. (To be continued.) )
