Chapter 225: How Should This Ball Be Counted?

"Hugo knocked Marvin Williams down, and then it was time for the Italian to perform. I guess that's what Hugo is for, what a smart guy! The commentators commented amocally that Emperor Wu had no intention of doing so before.

But he also knew that this was the time to try to beat Gallinari or Iguodala.

The Hawks didn't bring in another small forward to replace Marvin Williams because they had no one to replace. Larry Drew fielded a lineup of Assi Law, Crawford, Joe Johnson, Josh Smith and Horford, with Joe Johnson and Horford not resting throughout the game.

The Knicks also have a person who has not rested all over the court, Wu Huang has been on the court since the beginning of the game, and half a season ago he could not hold on to a game without rest, but now he can play the full 48 minutes.

Wu Huang's mistake caused a gap in the Hawks' defense, Iguodala faced Crawford's defense, two consecutive empty cuts, the first time directly hit the board, the second caused Horford to make up for the foul, and the Hawks center also got three fouls.

The Hawks' trouble came unexpectedly, with two fouls putting them in foul jeopardy, and if Horford was to be hit with four fouls next, the Hawks' defense would collapse in one fell swoop.

Wu Huang and Iguodala knew what to do without instructions at this time, and the two took turns to break through to the inside.

The Hawks' defense, with one less main player and Horford having to worry about another foul, finally lost their previous determination. Their defence is starting to crack.

At 6 minutes and 57 seconds in the third quarter, Wu Huang hit the middle and a half turns, followed by a backward jumper, and the action was very coherent. But basketball doesn't go to the basket.

David Lee scored the ball after a relay, and the Knicks quickly launched a 12-5 attack wave to narrow the score to 56:65, and the difference between the two teams finally returned to single digits.

Wu Huang's lethality finally came out, not only on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end, he also played a performance that made the opponent gnash his teeth.

Josh Smith had the urge to throw his fist over Emperor Wu, who had just slapped Josh's layup hard while helping to defend. A large hand slapped directly into the opponent's face, but only got one normal foul, and this guy was only the second foul.

Under the leadership of Emperor Wu. Knicks players began to use foul tactics. Although their defense is not good, they have done a good job of controlling the number of fouls, especially Wu Huang and Gallinari, who have each committed two fouls so far. It's perfectly possible to send a few Hawks free throw touching guys to the free throw line to try their touch.

Josh Smith and Pachuglia both shot just over 60 percent from the free-throw line. This is not a low number, but it is definitely not high, the two of them made 6 free throws in a minute, and only hit 3 in the end, which is equivalent to only one point per attack.

NBA teams can score one point per offense, which is not inefficient, but that's just an average, and if the opponent is chasing points, they can only score one point per game. That's not good. What's worse is that they still haven't gotten rid of foul trouble.

Josh Smith after being provoked by Emperor Wu. With a hot head, he made an unwise revenge move on the defensive end, and as a result, Wu Huang didn't have a fart, but the Eagles' second main interior line also committed four crimes.

Larry Drew doesn't know whether to scold Josh for being brainless or for being a bastard! He had to replace Josh, who also had four fouls, and Jason Collins, who always looked at Wu Huang with hot eyes.

The inside combination of Collins and Pachuglia dropped a lot in footwork than before, and Wu Huang broke through with the ball decisively on the offensive end, and after easily passing Asilao, he was only left with Collins who rushed to help the defense, but had not yet stood firm.

Wu Huang didn't grit his teeth and lay down on Collins to force a layup, what a lot of effort, he took the initiative to find a physical contact with his opponent.

Wu Huang had a plan in his heart, as soon as he bumped into Collins, as long as the opponent exerted his strength, he would take the initiative to fall, in this case, the referee would 100% sentence Collins to foul, and he was legally touching.

Corinth was really fooled, and Emperor Wu immediately planted it on the floor, but a black arm took the first step to support him!

"Be careful!" Emperor Wu heard a reminder full of concern in his ears, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the gentle gaze of Corinth, and sent him a kind smile.

"Thank you!" Emperor Wu broke away his right hand without a trace, revealing a very unnatural smile, because he found that this dead looked at him with exactly the same eyes as a certain four, how could there be so many in this world?

Larry Drew couldn't help but hang his head on the sidelines, and after Josh Smith and Marvin Williams went off the court, the team's defense couldn't withstand the Knicks' onslaught.

The head coach of the Hawks has begun to panic, but he didn't expect that Wu Huang only attacked the basket once, and then he didn't go to the basket, and shot two three-pointers in a row, but the Hawks took the opportunity to widen the difference to double digits, and there was such a good thing?

"What is this going on?" D'Antoni was very dissatisfied with Emperor Wu's performance, thinking that he was tired, and quickly replaced Emperor Wu.

Wu Huang was very embarrassed, and when he returned to the bench, he quickly covered his face with a towel.

Where is he tired, he is really embarrassed to see people, and he was actually frightened by a substitute inside line who is suspected of being a? If the truth is known by others, the name of the world will be gone.

The Knicks don't have Wu Huang on the court for the time being, but this is not the end of the world, Iguodala and Gallinari continue to attack the Hawks with breakthroughs, but Collins is not soft at all against people other than Wu Huang.

Gallinari saw Collins actually help Wu Huang before, and felt that this obviously false height of the inside line was very easy to bully, as soon as he got the ball on the offensive end, he killed Collins, and was directly photographed by someone with the ball.

Collins isn't very good defensively, but if you want to dominate his head, unless you're called LeBron James. Take a step back, you can make do with your name Iguodala. But Gallinari's name is definitely not on this list, and the Italian, who wanted to pinch a soft persimmon, lost his balance from the air and fell to the ground with a scream. And the tragedy is that the shoulder hits the ground first.

Wu Huang was covering his head with a towel in shame, when he suddenly heard the cheers of the fans on the sidelines and the exclamations of his teammates beside him, and took off the towel to look at the court. Gallinari was clutching his left shoulder with one hand, and he fell to the floor in pain.

"What just happened?" Wu Huang looked up at the big screen in the arena, which was replaying the clip just now - Collins's defense this time was definitely hard enough, I saw the ferocity on his face, and slapped Gallinari down, this expression was almost the same as when he defended himself just now.

"This guy still wants to detain people?" Wu Huang heard the gloating ridicule of the home fans, although he was very unhappy. But seeing the slow-motion replay, Gallinari didn't opt for a pull-up jump shot when Collins was already in position. actually jumped up head-on and wanted to have a violent dunk on the other?

Wu Huang shook his head secretly: It's strange that such a humiliating action is not filmed, you are not facing Gasol and Nowitzki, and you are not James or Wade, isn't this looking for death?

That being said. But now Gallinari's expression seems to be not lightly injured? Judging by the replay on the big screen. The moment he fell, his body completely lost his balance, and finally his left arm hit the ground first. This kind of injury can be big or small, the injury is not serious, and it can be healed in a few days. But once you hurt your muscles and bones, it's very tricky, and you can't play for a month or two.

The Knicks team doctor went on the court to check on him, but he didn't dare to touch Gallinari's shoulder. Hurriedly let the staff carry the stretcher, just look at the way he screams. I also know that this is not as simple as an ordinary hard injury.

If it is a hard injury, rubbing and moving the injured area vigorously can reduce the pain; But if it weren't for the hard injury, the player's injury would not have dared to move at all, and Gallinari would have been completely unable to move his left shoulder right now, which would have looked a bit serious.

The Italian did not lie down on the stretcher in the end, he was injured in the shoulder, and it would hurt even more to lie down, and finally dragged a non-moving arm back to the locker room, and it was estimated that the next stop would be the hospital.

In this case, Wu Huang was replaced after only two minutes of rest, and the Knicks really need their core to play now, and he must also play.

D'Antoni is secretly screaming bad luck here, the Knicks were lucky in the regular season, and none of the important players on the team were injured, but they didn't expect to be injured in the first round of the playoffs.

Gallinari may not be very reliable, but he can at least draw on the close defense of at least one of the Eagles' players for the team. The Italian is also terrible when he's in good shape, especially with his three-point shot being a weapon for the Knicks to open up space on defense. Now without him, Wu's breakthrough will sink into more defense, and Gallinari is an important piece of the puzzle for the Knicks.

After Wu Huang came on the court, he also felt tricky about this game in his heart, and when he was thinking hard about countermeasures, he suddenly experienced what it was like to "hug his thighs".

Iguodala only rested for three minutes today, and Wu Huang was not on the court for a while, and it was he who played with his life and shared the ball to help the Knicks continue their lives. Although the Knicks were still stretched to double digits by the Hawks, Iguodala's breakthrough also caused a lot of damage to the Hawks. If there was no brother today, the Knicks would have collapsed long ago.

In the first four games, except for the first game of Iguodala's outstanding performance, in the next three games, as soon as Wu Huang scored a high score, the first brother automatically became invisible, so the Hawks did not prepare much for Iguodala, they felt that this guy was the same role as the Lakers' Ci Shiping, just responsible for doing dirty work and tiring work, and he had nothing to do on the offensive end.

Wu Huang is trying to find a way to score, Iguodala has once again hit the inside line and made another foul on Horford, who has just come on the court, and this time the Hawks center also got the fourth foul, and Larry Drew is directly stupid!

"Awesome!" Wu Huang froze for a moment, and then rushed forward and hit Iguodala hard in the chest, but the first brother was careful to exert his force to prevent accidentally knocking their core off the field.

Wu Huang feels really good now, this feeling that he doesn't have to do anything, and his teammates help him solve the problem, it's really cool!

Iguodala's breakaway has been a constant hit for the Hawks, and now it's finally paying off, with both of the Hawks' starting interior players committing four fouls at the moment, and Marvin Williams and Ah Lawy, who was bullied by Wu Huang all the time, also have four fouls.

That means four of the Hawks' five starters are carrying four fouls. In the last 3 minutes of the third quarter, none of them could be on the court, and the Knicks' chance came!

D'Antoni sees Horford after his fourth foul. Le De spun around the sidelines for a while, and then hurriedly replaced David Lee again, and the Knicks lineup became: Wu Huang, Iguodala, Danny Green, Harrington, David Lee.

The New Yorkers have three players in this lineup who can break through with the ball on the outside, and David Lee will also become lethal on the inside, without Josh and Horford guarding the Hawks under the basket, if David Lee can't play, then go to ****.

The Knicks were at the bottom of their rope less than a minute ago. But in the blink of an eye, they found themselves in the dark.

Both teams were caught off guard by this change, and the game was changed again.

The big names from all over the world on the commentary table. At the moment, they are complaining about Hawks head coach Larry Drew, believing that his mistakes in the formation caused this unfavorable situation.

There are no more than a few minutes left in the third quarter, so why bring on Horford? Pachulia and Collins have played well on the defensive end, and the Knicks have been unable to close the gap. At this time, wouldn't it be nice to let the main interior line who has fouled too much take the opportunity to catch his breath?

It's good now. If the Knicks take advantage of those few minutes of vacuum to make an offensive wave, the Hawks will have a difficult fourth quarter. And they still have to be plagued by too many fouls of their own in the fourth quarter, not to mention that they are still leading by 11 points, but the game has completely turned in favor of the Knicks.

Wu Huang didn't know that he was also a player who was better at playing tailwind, especially when Spiedie Claxton was standing in front of him, so he was more sure.

Larry Drew can state upfront that he doesn't want to send Spidy Claxton on the court. But even Assi Rao, who he also didn't want to play, made four fouls, and there was no choice at this time.

Wu Huang faced another old guy with a real height of less than 180cm. It was like beating a schoolboy and soon hit a reckless mid-range jumper in front of his opponent.

Spidy is not only flawed in height, but his legs and feet can't keep up, Wu Huang can pull out shooting space with a change of direction, Spedy has almost no impact on his shots, and it's really as easy as shooting in the open space in training.

The Eagles hurried up to wrap up, but their previous defense against Wu Huang was now completely out of play. The execution ability of the Hawks' lineup was not strong enough, and Wu Huang was not afraid of such a bag at all, and soon assisted David Lee to score an easy dunk under the basket with a breakthrough point.

The score was 65:74, and the Knicks narrowed the gap to single digits with only two attacks, and the Hawks were not only unable to defend for a while, but they also couldn't attack.

Larry Drew hurriedly asked for a timeout, but there was not much room for him to adjust this lineup, and the Hawks' lineup was barely enough to play in the NBA playoffs, even if it was to play in the regular season.

After the game restarted, the Hawks performed a strong side block cut for Joe Johnson, but the tactical execution was still not in place, and the Knicks, who were already on the rise, became better defensively, and Danny Green switched to Joe Johnson's side in time to interfere with the Hawks' final shot.

David Lee picked up the rebound, Wu Huang had already run to the midcourt, and the Knicks played a classic quick counterattack, playing two and two in the frontcourt.

Wu Huang went to the front court to face Spedy's defense, didn't bother to pass the ball at all, took a big step to clean Spiedy, and then dodged Crawford's desperate block to easily hit the board and throw the ball in, which was his 21st point.

21 points is too little, Wu Huang wanted to score another 40+ before the game, originally he felt that there was no chance, but now there is an accident, if he can take advantage of the last minutes of the third quarter to cut enough points on Spedy, this goal is not without a chance to be achieved.

Larry Drew told Maurice Evans, also 32, to warm up on the sidelines, but Spedy's performance was too bad for Ben to bear. In the last three minutes of the quarter, he was ready to use three scoring guards to play on the outside, and it didn't matter if the result would be worse, anyway, it would be bad enough now, and where would he be subjected to it?

Wu Huang didn't give him a chance to make easy substitutions, after the Knicks blocked another attack by the Hawks, Wu Huang shot a chase three-point in a long-distance run, and such an unreasonable offense actually hit again!

"Chasing three-pointers" is definitely a reasonable offensive method for the Knicks, and it is also the offensive method that D'Antoni has always advocated.

The 20,000 Eagles fans in the stadium sighed in unison to vent their frustration, and any home fan would have reacted to seeing their team being pressed to the ground and rubbed against it.

Wu Huang shook his fist hard after scoring a goal, he chose to use a roar to express his depressed mood, he was targeted by a whole game before, and now he finally let out a bad breath!

Thinking like this, he didn't feel shameless at all, it was obvious that he had bullied Asilao for a whole time, and he really didn't know how to complain about this kind of bullying others and sulking himself.

The score was 70-74, and the Hawks hadn't scored since Wu Huang came on the court, and Larry Drew was forced to ask for another short timeout for substitutions, and their timeout didn't seem to be enough.

Wu Huang high-fived his teammates one by one during the timeout, and the Knicks players were demoralized in this round of offense, they were already a little tired, and they would not feel it at all. The same is true for Wu Huang, he only had 18 points on the court, and in a blink of an eye, his kung fu became 24 points, and his hand felt hot, and he could continue to increase his points after a while.

When the game restarted, the Eagles turned into a three-back lineup.

Wu Huang didn't care about any of this, Crawford and Spidy were similar in his eyes, as long as he didn't have the kind of team defense he had before, he didn't care who defended him.

The Hawks finally scored a goal after this timeout, but turned their heads, and Wu's breakthrough attracted a three-man catcher, and Iguodala hit a shot from outside the three-point line.

In this series, Iguodala, who has always been iron in three-point shooting, finally made another three-pointer, and the Knicks' luck seemed to be back.

The score was 73:76, and the difference between the two teams was further narrowed.

The Hawks players began to panic at this time, except for Joe Johnson and Crawford, the other three did not dare to shoot easily, because they all knew that if this offense could not score, the Knicks would turn their heads and likely to equalize, how could the bench players dare to take this responsibility?

Danny Green and Andre Iguodala teamed up to contain Joe Johnson this time, and the Hawks' offense took 20 seconds to find no chance to make a shot, and it looked like a 24-second violation......

In fact, Morris, who had just come on the court, had a chance to shoot before, but he hesitated, and finally threw the ball back to Crawford, and he didn't dare to shoot it at all. Crawford naturally dared to shoot, but under Wu Huang's excellent defense, he couldn't see the basket at all, and the basketball smashed the rebound, and he didn't even touch the basket.

David Lee grabbed another key rebound, and the Knicks fought back again......

"Coo"! Wu Huang had just received the basketball here, and the stupid eagles flying around in the arena came to him again.

This time, Wu Huang ignored the movement above his head and saw Iguodala following from the other side, having already escaped Joe Johnson with his speed, and he dribbled the ball to the front court and passed directly to an aerial relay.

This ball, Wu Huang passed very high, but the strength was calculated very accurately, Iguodala ran to the basket and jumped to receive this ball, and no one could stop his aerial relay.

He was right, no one could stop the ball, but the stupid eagle was not human.

The fans in front of the TV and in person saw the incredible scene...... The basketball sent by Wu Huang had just flown halfway through the air, and the bald eagle that was climbing up after diving, just grabbed the basketball in the air with its lassoed claws...... After the basketball was stressed, it immediately changed its trajectory and fell off the court.

"Fuck you, uncle!" Wu Huang was already mad when he saw this scene, only to see him raise his foot and take off his sneakers, and throw it with all his strength at the stupid eagle who lost his balance after touching the basketball...... (To be continued.) )
