Chapter 152: Can't You Win MVP If You Lose?
Payton admired Zhang in his heart, and in the third quarter, he could see that he was in a position that made him want to pass the ball all the time in the process of isolating Zhang Qi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This kid's sense of position is really good, this kind of improvised lineup is the most testing of the player's offensive position.
Zhang Mao can always find a position that is very suitable for receiving the ball, and others should also pass the ball to him.
To put it simply, his presence on the field is very strong, and both fans and players on the field can always see him in sight.
"It's very good, but I just don't pass it on!"
This is Payton's inner dialogue, if he wants to win the MVP, he can't let Zhang Yu continue to hold the ball and organize the offense, he must dominate the ball to have a chance to win the MVP.
But don't say he's selfish, how can he make money if he's not selfish?
If he can have one more All-Star MVP qualifications, he can ask for the next contract, right?
But at this time, Payton didn't know that he was being frantically complained about by fans around the world, even Chinese fans who were new to the NBA could see who was better for the team from the score that the Western team was falling behind and his assists.
So far in this game, Payton has not had double-digit assists, and the advantage in scoring statistics has been quickly narrowed after Zhang scored six points in a row.
From this moment on, he has actually lost the qualification to compete for MVP.
In the entire Western Army, only Zhang and David Robinson are now eligible to compete for MVP.
Kidd went on the court and ignored Payton and started playing for the boss again.
Although his passing is a little worse than Stockton's, Zhang no longer has to worry about not having the ball.
Western Team lineup: Kidd, Payton, Zhang, Barkley, Robinson.
This lineup is very unfriendly to Payton, and even David Robinson will serve the ball to Kidd instead of Payton.
Whoever calls this thing to get the ball is most likely to choose to do it alone, only to Kidd or Zhang Qian has more chance of receiving a return pass, although in this way, while scoring by himself, Zhang Qi will also get an assist, but at least it is better than not getting the ball.
Zhang Qiu has a helper, and he began to frantically brush up assists again, especially after Hill came on the court, in fact, he was not as good as Pippen's defensive effect, and he could only limit Zhang Zhu's scoring, but not Zhang Zhu's breakthrough and passing.
In the last 4 minutes and 16 seconds, Zhang Yu broke through and suddenly gave the ball to Barkley, assisted the big ass and hit another shot, and the score came to 121:126, and the Western troops narrowed the difference to 5 points.
"Do you really think you can defeat me?"
Jordan immediately used a pull-up layup that connected two people to re-widen the difference to 7 points, and many Jordan fans who are familiar with the Bulls know that the helper is about to take over the game, and he took the initiative to face Zhang Qi again on the defensive end.
"If you come to guard against me, my data will look better, haven't you found it yet?"
"You can't win the game, and the data doesn't matter how good it is."
Jordan glanced at the score, the 7-point advantage was enough, and he didn't believe that this little brute could turn the sky in front of him.
"Wait...... Are you competing with me for MVP? Do you also think that if I win the game, I will steal your MVP? ”
Zhang Qi asked suddenly, and without waiting for Jordan to answer, he immediately smiled: "No wonder you want to take the initiative to defend me, but don't you think you are surrendering your identity by doing so?" I'm just a first-year rookie, I just want to outdo you in the first year, and you want to beat me? God, I didn't even know that I was so good! ”
Jordan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, although he knew that Zhang Qi must have said it on purpose.
But I have to say that Zhang Mao's words are very lethal.
Of course, Zhang Wei has more than that, if he is just trying to surpass Jordan in his rookie season, then he has already done it now.
This is also the reason why Jordan cares so much and is angry, the two of them are indeed better at the beginning stage.
It can be said that since Zhang Zhu put on the dragon robe that made Jordan mentally unstable, his goal is to defeat the current martial arts alliance leader, which is for the current Jordan, not the bullshit rookie Jordan.
After the final four minutes of the game, it looked like the lineups on both sides would remain in place until the end of the game.
Western lineup: Kidd, Payton, Zhang, Barkley, Robinson.
Eastern lineup: Hardaway, Jordan, Hill, Mourning, O'Neal.
"Give me the ball...... Give me the ball! ”
O'Neal kept reaching out to Hardaway for the ball, and kept yelling in his heart, now is the best time for him to stab Jordan from behind, he is the protagonist!
This big shark is thinking very beautifully, the East team is leading by 7 points at the moment, and he is sure to beat Robinson, as long as he can score consecutive points in the last few minutes, the final MVP is what his Uncle Shaquille has in his pocket.
Even if it wasn't for this little bit of caution, just for the sake of winning the game, the Eastern Army should indeed play him, the most stable inside offensive point, at least that's what O'Neill thinks.
Besides, Hardaway is his teammate again, so it makes sense to help him at this time.
However, "Penny" hasn't been able to fully assist O'Neal in his MVP win today, as he had imagined. Although the relationship between the two is good, the choice of "Penny" at this time obviously made O'Neill feel guilty. Even in the final stages of the game, Hardaway still didn't give O'Neill the ball to his full strength.
O'Neal leaned on Robinson on the inside to reach for the ball, Jordan also leaned on Payton on the offensive end to ask for the ball, and Hardaway dribbled for a long time before finally passing the basketball to Hill, who was in a better position.
"it!"
Zhang Wei didn't expect Hardaway to play like this, he thought that normal people would definitely have to help their teammates!
So he sneakily lurked beside O'Neal, ready to break the ball at any time, and almost let go of Hill, but he didn't expect Hardaway to be so selfless.
Hill received a pass and took two steps inside to hit a stoppage.
"What are you doing here? Watch your defenders. ”
Peyton said that he was very upset and walked up to Zhang Qi and reprimanded him!
Zhang Qi was also angry enough now, he felt that Peyton was finding fault. I want to refute a few words, but I still forget it, it is obviously unwise to quarrel with my teammates at this time, and it will attract more criticism after the game.
The Western troops attacked, Zhang Mao also reached out for the ball with Payton, and there was a Robinson on the inside who was doing the same action with the two.
Kidd said, "I only have Lyon without you in my eyes", his expression did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh a little, so he directly hoisted the ball to Zhang Mao, or a pre-judgment pass.
Before Zhang Wei ran to the position, he saw that the basketball was about to fly above his head, and when he was in place, he just received this lob.
"Awesome, this kung fu is not the same as Stockton."
Zhang Zhu's ball is very comfortable, but unlike Stockton's accurate passes, Kidd's passes are anticipatory, with a certain amount of advance, a bit like leading you to the ball.
This kind of passing, it seems that there is no problem of whether the pass is accurate, because you have to run with the ball, and whether you receive it well or not in the end, whether it is comfortable or not, completely depends on your own ability to receive the ball.
Zhang Qi is naturally not a problem in this regard, receiving the basketball to change direction under the basket, dodging the empty moment and scoring the ball with a running throw, and almost no defense is encountered when shooting.
"Comfortable!"
Zhang Qi's ball is not only comfortable, but also does not need to adjust after receiving the ball, and he can directly change direction to get rid of Jordan.
Kidd seems to have judged how he wants to attack, and Zhang Yu doesn't need to stop the ball to adjust after receiving the ball, and can break through with the ball.
This also made Jordan have no time to defend, and the interior players did not have time to adjust the formation and fill the position, especially O'Neal's guy didn't even react, and could only watch Zhang Qi complete the shot on the edge of the penalty area.
"I really want to be teammates with you!"
Zhang Yi is not fooling this time, Kidd's passing is indeed unique, and he is not taking the path of Stockton.
"Me too!"
Young Kidd laughed a little cutely, and after hearing Zhang Fu's words, he smiled like a child, he really wanted to be teammates with Zhang Qi.
It's hard to explain the source of Kidd's affection for Zhang, and it is not known when he had such a positive attitude towards Zhang.
Looking back, it seems that since Zhang Fu's slam dunk contest yesterday, Kidd's attitude towards Zhang Qi has changed very big.
Now, it should be no problem to call him a "little fan brother", and there is a hint of fan flavor in his eyes when he looks at Zhang Mao.
It's hard to explain why you suddenly look at someone's eyes, but everyone from childhood to adulthood will meet some people who are very annoying at the first sight, and there will also be people who are particularly pleasing to the eye after the first sight.
After Zhang scored the goal, he discussed with Payton that he wanted to defend Jordan and whether the two could switch defenses.
Peyton said in his heart, "It's the first time I've heard such a request to die", and without saying a word, he changed guards with Zhang Fu.
"Hey, I'm almost 20.20, do you think the league will give me the MVP trophy at the end, win or lose?"
Now it's not so much that Zhang Qi is here to defend Jordan, it's better to say that he is deliberately angry with Jordan.
"I don't know if you can lose and win the MVP, but you do."
After Jordan's two spying steps crossed one after the other, he connected a small jump and made a move......
"Damn, there are so many steps, are you sure you didn't walk?"
Zhang Qi was shaken full this time, Jordan's technical reserves were much more than him, Zhang Qi couldn't even reach out to block this time, and watched Jordan score two points on a jumper.
"You like to guess so much, then guess again, did I just walk?"
Jordan finally found his rhythm, and that's his normal rhythm of play.
The two are actually ruthlessly similar, and they both like to hit the opponent's psychology with a little bit of harassment after scoring a goal.
Zhang took advantage of Barkley's off-ball cover to run to the weak side, and Kidd's pass to the ball.
Jordan was blocked by Barkley and could only fly over to block it.
Zhang Fu's dynamic vision is once again powerful, he now has a lot of options, and finally chose a way to make his stats look better - passing!
David Robinson didn't expect to receive the basketball, the average player has such a good opportunity and will definitely break through to the basket by himself, but Zhang Yu chose to give the ball to him.
O'Neal hurriedly opened his hands to defend, but Robinson's position to catch the ball was under the basket, which was too simple for him, casually leaning on O'Neal's chubby belly, and the "admiral" easily scored the ball under the basket.
The home fans cheered wildly, and Robinson completed 2+1 this time.
Zhang Qi clenched his fist fiercely from a distance, and he got an assist, which was the best result in his heart!
"Now I feel like I'm really going to lose and win MVP!"
Zhang Qi then smiled lightly at Jordan and fought-for-tat again!
David Robinson hit a free throw to give the game 2:35 left and the score at 130:135 and the difference between the two teams will come to five.
For the Western Army, Zhang Wei had 18 points, 12 rebounds, 19 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, Robinson 29 points and 7 rebounds, Payton 22 points and 5 assists, Barkley 14 points and 4 rebounds, Camp 12 points and 4 rebounds, Richmond 7 points, Malone 6 points and 3 rebounds, Kidd 4 points and 5 assists, Stockton 5 points and 8 assists, Mutombo 6 points and 8 rebounds, Olajuwon 4 points and 2 rebounds, Drexler 3 points.
For the Eastern Army, Jordan had 32 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, O'Neal 27 points and 12 rebounds, Hardaway 16 points and 7 assists, Hill 11 points and 4 assists, Ewing 10 points and 3 rebounds, Pippen 9 points and 3 assists, Miller 8 points, Mourning 6 points and 3 rebounds, Howard 6 points and 2 rebounds, Trill Brandon 4 points and 2 assists, Vin Baker 4 points and 1 rebound, Glen Rice 2 points and 2 rebounds.
If this kind of fight continues, the eastern army is at risk of being overturned.
The Zen master asked for a timeout, and George Carr couldn't help but "phew" in his heart, despising this kind of behavior very much, and this kind of all-star game is embarrassed to call a timeout?
Phil Jackson asked for a timeout for the simple reason that he was going to replace Pippen with Jordan.
Hill is good, but it's a lot worse than Pippen.
If East wants to win this game, he needs to keep the Bulls' golden partner on the court.
And Jordan's expression let him know that their No. 23 wants to win the game, very much!
"What a tragedy!"
Zhang Qi saw that Pippen replaced Hill, who had been performing well, and secretly mourned for the other party for three seconds, and his colleagues were glad that he was not on the same team as Jordan, otherwise his situation would be worse.
The East's timeout was very effective, and after the game restarted, Jordan took the basketball from Hardaway again and assisted Pippen for a layup.
Zhang Zhu has followed very closely, and Barkley has also helped to defend in time, but Pippen's ability value of 92 is not given for nothing, and he still scores the ball under the defense of the two.
O'Neal was upset, saying he hadn't picked up a basketball in a long time.
If you just gave the ball to him, where would it take so much effort?
"Idiot, what were you doing in there?"
Half a minute later, Jordan sprayed O'Neal mercilessly, without giving the big four centers any face.
Of course, there is a reason why the gang leader is so angry, Zhang Zhu and Robinson shamelessly played with the block just now, but O'Neal is like a treasure in the penalty area, and he refuses to come out to delay Zhang Zhu's breakthrough, allowing the latter to hit it easily with an unguarded mid-range shot.
Zhang Mao's score has come to 20 points, and now he is only one assist away from completing the magical performance of 20+20.
O'Neal was sprayed in the face by Jordan, and he was even more angry.
It's just kidding, since he Uncle Shaquille entered the alliance, he has never been reprimanded like this.
O'Neal doesn't think Jordan is great, he thinks he is the protagonist of the next decade, why should an outdated old guy reprimand himself?
Jordan saw that O'Neal didn't turn his head, and just ran straight past him, and his heart was even more unhappy, this bastard actually dared to ignore his authority?
He's only been gone for more than a year, and now no one can ignore himself like that?
Zhang Yu's eyes rolled around beside him, he felt that in this case, these two would definitely not pass the ball to each other again, so could he play some tricks in response to this situation?
