Chapter 438: The So-Called Champion (Medium)
With one more point, the Lakers will be able to overtake the score. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the second half of the fourth quarter, there was a sudden surge and the situation changed very quickly.
The awakening of Los Angeles No. 13 made the Great Western Forum Arena feel emotional, and they all shouted loudly to cheer for its home team.
Wilt. Chamberlain? Seriously, it really deserves to be the "No. 1 monster in history"! But, I'm still the same!
G7 is my stage! And your heart is nowhere near as big as mine!
I could have done you with my own hands the year before last! Then there will be no surprises this year!
Tang Qian looked at the No. 10 in New York opposite, and silently calculated in his heart, because of the current situation, every point is critical, so ...... He must not be allowed to shoot from the outside. Otherwise, with his current state, Jerry. West can't stop it at all, so the probability of winning will be greatly reduced. What to do? You can only let yourself defend and suppress him!
This is the way out for the Lakers!
After all, now, only his own competitive state can compete with him!
So the best candidate, there is no doubt about it.
It's just, how to make the opponent give up the outside shooting and focus on the inside? Tang Qian had a plan in his mind, that is, to show the enemy weakness and deliberately sell a flaw. However, the other party is obviously not a fool, he can become a quasi-superstar in the No. 1 position, and his basketball IQ is definitely very good, so this "bait" must be fat enough and tempting enough to do it.
How? It's very simple, that is, to use his "6 crimes graduation" as a "hook", so that the other party can't not be tricked, and there is no way not to take the bait. However, this "bait" is tempting enough, but the same risk is also extremely huge. Because once you don't grasp it well, then it is not that the opponent is "fooled", but that you are "self-defeating" and "lose your wife and lose your soldiers". This is a "double-edged sword", good and bad, half each, equally obvious.
However, Tang Qian was a little hesitant, because if he failed, then the Lakers and himself would be finished.
At such a high cost, it is not surprising that he would be a little hesitant.
And at this moment, the opponent really made a threat, a breakthrough emergency stop shot, and the basketball drilled into the Lakers' basket accurately. Jerry. West's defense was hard, but it didn't make much of a difference. Without it, his competitive form tonight is not on the same level as the No. 10 in New York.
3 points ahead.
Walter. Fraser glanced at the Lakers' inside, although he didn't speak, but his eyes had already explained everything.
You can't win tonight!
It's pride, but also self-confidence, this season's Walter. Fraser does have the capital and qualifications.
Tang Qian's expression sank, and sure enough, what he was most worried about still happened.
Don't think that the quasi-supergiant at the peak of history is a brainless rammer, as the brain of the team, the No. 1 quasi-supergiant's judgment of the situation is usually the most accurate and meticulous among the 5 people on the field. Since there is no result in the breakthrough just now, this time it is natural to adjust the offensive method and use the most advantageous method to continue to maintain the lead difference. On the offensive end, the Lakers made no difference, and continued to hand over to the low post No. 13, who took full control. Who said that during this period of time, the attack of No. 13 was the most stable and efficient?
At this critical juncture, it doesn't matter who you are, no matter what method you have, as long as you can stuff the ball into the basket on the opposite side, that's good, that's the stick, that's the best choice! After all, the true meaning of basketball is still a scoring game.
After seeing this situation, Reed. Holzman stood on the sidelines and shouted, "Defend with intensity!" High-intensity defense! Don't be afraid of confrontation! Don't be afraid of confrontation! Give me a little tougher! It's really not good, even if it's a foul, you have to stop him!! "Jerry. Lucas and Dave. Debusscel heard the manager's tactical instructions and they did their best, but it worked...... It's not as good as it could be. Tang Qian's "Furious" is greatly blessed, and his physical ability at this moment is far beyond the usual, coupled with the already strong strength attribute, at this moment, pushing back and pushing back, it is simply to reach an amazing point, even if they want to make small moves, it is difficult to stop the Lakers' No. 13.
Bang dang~
"Wilt~Chamberlain~~~ It's a bulldozer-like dunk! In the league, who else can do it except Los Angeles 13? "Loftus-Cheek. Hearn explained that he kept the fan atmosphere at the Great Western Forum Arena at a warm level.
"Well done! Wilt! This dunk basketball is simply handsome! β
"Wilt! You're the best tonight! We're going to win! β
"Kill their goddamn New Yorkers! You're the No. 1 center in the league!! β
Hearing the shouts of the fans in the front row, "Tang Qian" waved his hand, signaling them to rest assured that this game would not be lost.
Reed. Holzmann's face is very unsightly, because the team's two interior lines are obviously working hard, but they still can't stop the opponent, and this No. 13 doesn't know how to do it tonight, and he actually plays with a sense of violence, as if every ball is going to tear the Knicks' basket. Suddenly he remembered a passage from "Cardinal" Auerbach, Wilt. Chamberlain's biggest problem is that basketball is not his only one, so he will never be able to defeat Boston or the Celtics. Of course, this sentence feels a bit of a boast, because Chamberlain still defeated the Boston Celtics head-on, otherwise the longest dynasty in NBA history would not have been "only" only eight in a row. But aside from these "bragging" elements, Auerbach's meaning is also obvious, that is, the 13th that is seriously focused will be unstoppable, far beyond people's imagination.
Such as...... Now?
A 35-year-old person still has such ability??? Wouldn't this guy be even more exaggerated if his knees hadn't been scrapped???
This is the 60-70s, 35 years old is basically the age of an athlete "dying old", and Abdul-Jabbar's age record has not yet been released, so how do you look at this era Wilt. Chamberlain, who is a little bit not human, is a bit excessive. But...... You are strong, NBA championship, I can't give it to you!
We have to find a way to give the Knicks a solid advantage!
What's the solution? Reed. After Holzman's eyebrows wrinkled, his mind suddenly lit up, and he said:
Yes, by the way, didn't you just say it yourself?
If you really can't do it, it's a foul, so stop him!
That's right, it's a foul! Use the foul method to send him to the free throw line!
Anyway, at the moment, the Lakers have no one to compete with Walter, who is in a rampant state. Fraser!
Although the method may be a little "disgusting", history will always belong only to the winners!
As long as you become the ultimate winner, then the process is not very important!
Okay, that's it!
Right here in Walter. Fraser dribbled forward, and Reed. Holzman called a timeout.
The Lakers and Knicks both felt a little surprised, because this timeout was really a bit "abrupt".
Back on the team's bench, Walter. Fraser opened his mouth and asked, "Mr. Holzman, why did you suddenly call a timeout?" β
"Because I thought of a way to win!" Reed. Holzman's eyes were blazing.
"Must, the way to win?" At this moment, the entire New York Knicks team was blindfolded, after all, this sentence is too lethal and too explosive. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Reed. Holzman spoke: "It's actually very simple, that's it, you all listen, anyway, there is not much time left......
On the Lakers side, Beal. Sharman stood in front of the team's No. 13 and said, "Wilt, are you okay?" Can you still eat on the physical side? "He makes sense because in this series," Wilt said. Chamberlain's physical strength is much worse than usual, and many games can't even support the fourth quarter, so at this juncture, he needs to ask what kind of situation the "big guy" is in physical condition. The former is also a generation of famous coaches in NBA history, and he understands who the strongest point of the current Lakers is.
"It's okay, I don't have a problem." It's hard to say what else will be, but now, with the blessing of "Rage", "Tang Qian's" physical fitness will not be in any crisis at all, and this is also the most energetic game he has had at the last moment since 7 games.
"Very good, Wilt, it's only 2 minutes away, you have to hold on." Bill. After Sharman got the Lakers' No. 13 answer, he said: "What tactical support you need, I will try to satisfy you." β
"Yes, sir, thank you." "Tang Qian" nodded and said.
In fact, it's all hit to this point, how can there be any subtle tactics to speak of? Offense and defense, on the contrary, have become the simplest and most important factors.
β¦β¦
"The timeout is always short, let's meet the last 116 seconds together~" Loftus-Cheek. Hearn said: "Ladies and gentlemen of Los Angeles, please do your best in the next time, don't be stingy~"
"The Great Western Forum Arena needs you~"
"The Lakers need you too~"
"Let's give our strength to the first championship trophy in Los Angeles~"
βLetβs.go~Lakers~β
Knicks halftime.
"Isn't Coach Holzman's approach a bit ~ Well, you know, Jerry~" Dave. Debuschel Dao.
"What's wrong?" Jerry. Lucas said: "Winning is the key! As a head coach, Mr. Holzman's only focus should be to win! On the contrary, I think Mr. Holzman is very competent and excellent, because he does everything that a manager should do~" "Well, yes~ but I always think it's a bit ......" Dave. Before Debusscel could finish speaking, he was attacked by Jerry. Lucas "scoffed" and said, "Dave, what do you think?" Not positive enough? Not direct enough? Not chivalrous enough? Come.on~Let go of these so-called gentleman's rules~This is the NBA~It's a battlefield~"
"On the battlefield, who can remember the glory of the loser?"
"So we have to follow Reed. Mr. Holzman's arrangement, otherwise even if we are worthy of ourselves, we will be sorry for thousands of New York fans~ Do you understand? β
"Hmm~I know~Jerry~You're right~ I'm thinking too much~" Dave. Debusschel's face dissipated hesitation and became firm again.
Offensive end: Walter. Fraser hit another jumper, as if he also knew how powerful the Lakers were under the basket, so he temporarily dispelled the mind and idea of continuing to kill the inside, and chose to score in a compromise way. In this way, the "Tang Qian's" internal deterrent capability will be completely invalid, and it will not be useful at all.
That's the defensive limitations of interior players, especially centers, and you can't really take care of the whole shooting area.
Even Olajuwon, not so.
Brush~
The score difference is back to 3 points.
And just when the Lakers passed the inside line and were ready to continue to let the team's No. 13 eat in the low post, something changed. Lucas and Dave. Debusscel actually rushed up, and then quickly fouled "Tang Qian". This action was done "above board" in front of the referee, so without hesitation, it was a foul penalty and was given to Jerry, who was the first to strike. Lucas.
Because the Knicks had already reached the number of fouls in the fourth quarter, there was nothing to say, and the Lakers were sent to the Knicks' free throw line on the 13th. The referee's gesture appeared and he scored two penalties.
After Tang Qian saw the referee's gesture, he frowned, and then stood on the free throw line.
The first penalty, the striking iron of "Duang".
The second penalty, again "Duang", smashed the basket and came out.
Although the "Fury" was activated, Tang Qian had already known that only this penalty was not included in the "Fury Amplification". And my current average free throw shooting rate is about 61%, but because it is a playoffs, it has been affected by "demons", and the free throw shooting rate will decline further, so it may be difficult to have a 40% now. In this way, it becomes extremely likely and normal that the two penalties are not scored.
Turning around, the opponent threw in another mid-range shot, so that the score difference was once again widened to more than 5 points.
When the Lakers had just sent out the backcourt ball, the referee's whistle sounded again.
The Knicks fouled No. 22 without the ball, and the Lakers No. 13 needed to make another free throw.
Suddenly, the audience was in an uproar, because this kind of thing was really rare in the NBA in the 70s.
But in the eyes of "Tang Qian", the meaning is a little more profound, because he is a person who came over in 2015, so he knows very well that this defensive tactic has another nickname, that is, "cutting sharks". In fact, the ultimate source of this name should be called "slashing tactics", and it is only because the league modified this no-ball foul rule for O'Neal in 02 that it is customary to use the name "slashing shark". But before 2016, although this tactic was famous, it was not popular, because its real peak was actually in the 2015-2016 season, as high as 420 times, and during this time period, Shaq. O'Neill has been retired for a long time. Therefore, the era that really carried forward the "shark cutting" was not the O'Neill era, but the "Warcraft", "Little Jordan" and other people in the back. The reason is that there are more rough brothers in the league, so it eventually comes to a point where it affects the overall smoothness of the game.
Before the 2015-2016 season, how many off-ball fouls were there in a season? There were only 179 in the 2014-1015 season, and what about 2013-2014? Less, but 115 times, this level is considered within the range of "tolerable". But in the 2015-2016 season, the number of off-ball fouls soared to 400+ times, more than in the previous three seasons combined, which made the league's top brass a little unbearable. As a result, in 2016, a new generation of "no shark hacking rules" was introduced.
However, Tang Qian didn't know about these, because his "memory" was only on the eve of the start of the 2015-2016 season at most, and he hadn't even seen the first regular season game of the 2015-2016 season, so he had no way of knowing the new generation of "shark cutting rules". However, the new generation does not know, and the older generation cannot not know. In 02, in order to "prohibit the ugly behavior of cutting sharks", the league introduced the rule that the last two minutes of the fourth quarter and the last two minutes of overtime are not allowed to deliberately foul no players.
But what about before 02? There's no such rule.
So......
If you are cut, you can only get 2 free throws at most, and you will no longer have the power to "throw".
In this way, the other party's "conspiracy" can be regarded as a complete success.
The Lakers were also doomed.
Complaining about the rules, that's a pointless thing, now what you have to do is to calm down and find a way to counteract.
Otherwise, he and the Lakers will both be "defeated" and become a defeat that can never be reversed.
After "Tang Qian" got the referee's pass, he took a deep breath and his brain began to run in overdrive.
PS: That's the end of this next chapter, the cruel and ruthless 7 finals, what aspects can the protagonist improve? You can guess for yourself~
Xiao Zi continues to code the next update, I hope everyone votes for it~ Give some motivation~ Because things at work are really annoying, Xiao Zi also adjusted for a long time after going home every day, before he dared to start coding words~ After all, Xiao Zi is just an ordinary person~ (To be continued.) )
