Chapter 331: I'm the Man Who Almost Got Into the 190 Club!
In the third quarter, the Bulls were still in control, with the Chicagoans leading the way in New York, and after Rose scored a jumper, Boozer exploded to score five straight points, and Anthony also contributed a low-post jumper. Although the Knicks were dunked by O'Neal www.biquge.info the Bulls further widened the gap.
With 8 minutes and 16 seconds left in the third quarter, the score was 52:68, and the Knicks were already trailing by 16 points.
"Do you want to roll over?" Wu Huang began to be uncalm, the Bulls attacked frantically in the second half, putting on a momentum of suicide if they couldn't kill the Knicks in three quarters, and the Knicks' defense couldn't stand it.
The Heat and the Celtics are laughing at the moment, if the Bulls dare to play with them like this, they are guaranteed to die of exhaustion, and their defense is not like the Knicks who can break down with a single poke.
Both Wu Huang and D'Antoni knew that their bad hand today was not necessarily bad luck, but it was because they were blown up on the defensive end and affected their attack. At this time, for the Knicks, if they want to turn defeat into victory, they can only hope to put aside defense first and concentrate on offense. They are not a team that stands on the defensive after all.
The Knicks quickly called a timeout, and D'Antoni swapped the lineup for Wu Huang, Iguodala, Danny Green, Gallinari, and Stoudemire.
If you apply the values in the 2K game, this is a small lineup with an attack power of A+, but the defensive level may not be B yet, D'Antoni is ready to take the plunge!
Wu Huang glanced at his own statistics before going on the court, and his performance of 12 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists cannot be said to be bad, but his teammate Comrade Xiao Si has already scored 23 points and 6 rebounds.
That's it, no matter who you are, you always have to eat dumplings.
But Rose scored 18 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and Anthony scored a game-high 28 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, which made Wu Huang unable to save face. As the new scoring champion and MVP double winner, why can't he even rank in the top three in the competition?
After the game restarted, Wu Huang stretched out his middle finger when dribbling, which means that you don't rush up to block and dismantle, don't rush to get the ball in position, and don't rush to run three points.
Stoudemire wanted to come up to block the demolition, but Wu Huang hurriedly waved his hand, meaning: "Don't block and dismantle to see me pass him." ”
"Don't pull it down!" Xiao Si saw Wu Huang's gesture and retreated, and everyone began to move to the sides, giving him room for singles.
The Bulls players didn't follow suit, they still paid attention to defending their own basket area, and even if Wu Huang broke through Rose this time, he would encounter other Bulls players' defenses.
"Come on, then!" Wu Huang chose to play correctly, and this time he seemed to imitate Westbrook, and after a simple shake, he plunged into the basket with his head down.
Rose was taken aback, Wu Huang's explosive power was not much inferior to him, don't look at the fact that there is nothing he can do to break through today, but he also has not many ways to break through Wu Huang, especially the sudden stop and turn after Wu Huang's breakthrough makes him elusive.
Wu Huang's explosiveness and speed are not much worse than Rose, but after all, they are still a little worse, and he does not have the perverted secondary change of direction ability of the other party. But it doesn't matter, Wu Huang has another way that is more powerful than Rose's second change of direction by brute force, and that is the turning action in the breakthrough.
He added flexible turns to his breakthroughs, whether it was the forward turn or the back turn after the breakthrough, it was elusive for the opponent, especially the backward shooting after the turn was almost impossible to defend.
In this breakthrough, Wu Huang used a back turn on the way to get past Rose, but did not choose to shoot, but accelerated to the basket to attract the defense of three Bulls players.
"Watch out for his passes!" Thibodeau shouted from the sidelines, he felt that Wu Huang, who had always been calm, would not make a move in such a situation, and he must have distributed the ball outside.
"Wrong!" Wu Huang muttered in his heart, he saw that Noah was clever and wanted to cut off his pass, and immediately threw the ball to the end.
Noah's defense this time not only guarded against Wu Huang's layup under the basket, but also planned to pounce out at any time to break the ball, the center of gravity was unstable under the swaying, and the force was insufficient, and when he stretched out his arm to block, he found that he couldn't reach the basketball, and he forgot that Wu Huang's arm span was also a very scary number.
At the moment when Wu Huang turned and accelerated to the basket to complete the layup, Rose chased the block behind him, and Boozer and Noah on the weak side also pounced on him...... From the perspective of fans, Wu Huang has been completely locked in the middle by the three. But in the eyes of the three of them, the moment Wu Huang made a shot, none of them could touch the basketball, and all three of them were one step slower.
"Unbelievable! Everybody pounced and still got it in, and who can tell me how he managed to get the ball into the basket with three defenders blocked? Mark Jackson's tone sounded surprised, but as a former All-Star, he actually knew how Wu Huang scored the goal.
"Before the shot, it is a demonstration of speed + skill, and finally shooting and successfully scoring is a manifestation of courage + self-confidence." Jeff Van Gundy laughed, he had a very high opinion of Emperor Wu.
Speaking of which, Van Gundy and Mark Jackson are both from the Knicks, they have a deep affection for this team, one has been a head coach here for seven years, and the other has been a player here for seven years, and they both debuted in the Knicks, and now many Knicks fans regard them as their own.
Wu Huang scored this goal and also made a defensive foul on Noah, and after landing, he held on to the pad on the basketball hoop, and couldn't help but punch hard to vent the depression in his heart!
Today he has been playing very aggrieved, and now he has been ordered by the coach to attack with all his strength, but he is light.
Madison Garden was already full of people, 20,000 fans applauded his wonderful goal, and soon there was an organized shout of "MVP" and "MVP"!
"Didn't you just score a goal? What's the big deal! Ross and Anthony snorted at the same time.
Wu Huang's wonderful goal has boosted the morale of the Knicks players a lot, and it has also made the Bulls players very unhappy, especially after Wu Huang added a free throw, Rose and Anthony are thinking about the next offense.
"Let Rose attack!" Although Wu Huang didn't say this sentence, this is the defensive plan they set up during the last timeout, although the team's current strategic direction is to attack with all their might, as long as the defense is done their best, but the defensive strategy should still be there.
Anthony has a better grasp of scoring than Rose in these two games, which is a consensus among Knicks players, so it is better to let the less efficient Rose attack.
Wu Huang said that it doesn't matter if Rose gets 40+, the most important thing is to win, and he won't think too much about unnecessary things in the playoffs.
Throughout the third quarter, Wu Huang used the moving turn pass on the offensive end many times to find scoring opportunities, and after the break, he not only shot and scored himself, but also passed the ball. At this point, Wu Huang did a better job than Rose, who could find a teammate's position and split the ball in an instant. Knicks fans can see in the third quarter that Wu Huang always stops and turns when he breaks through, and then lays with his low hand, or distributes the ball to a better-positioned teammate at the moment of shooting.
The first difficulty is that the turn is sudden, and it must not be easy for the defender to judge the direction of your turn. And you can't "turn blindly", it depends on the defensive position of the defender, if you go to the area where the defender is gathered, it is no different from sending to death. Finally, of course, there are the offensive and passing options after the turn, and after the turn is usually completed, the player is faced with a choice again, whether to accelerate the attack to the basket, or to attract the defense and pass the ball? These two options don't have time for you to think about slowly, you can only rely on split-second judgment, so the level of ball quotient and the speed of reaction determine the success rate of the attack.
In the third quarter of 2 minutes and 18 seconds, the Knicks launched an attack, Wu Huang quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, he had observed the defender's position to the left before the breakthrough, so he did not hesitate to turn back to the right, well avoided the defender, and then faced Anthony's help defense, he directly blocked the opponent with his body to complete the low-handed layup, the whole process completely treated Anthony as air, anyway, he couldn't reach the basketball, and too much force was a foul.
Wu Huang's turning has its own characteristics, his range of movements is not large, but the turning speed is very fast, and there is no superfluous movement, which is very efficient and concise. The most important point is that Wu Huang's turning timing is very good, and he can turn and break through at the most uncomfortable moment for the defender. Fans watching the live broadcast can often see that when Wu Huang turns around in this section, Rose often can't make defensive moves, and can only watch Wu Huang pass him first, and then he goes to chase him a second time.
Both teams showed their offensive skills in the third quarter, and the game began to move in the direction of the stars deciding the winner.
Rose became more and more weak on the defensive end, but also used his change of direction on the offensive end to make Wu Huang helpless; Xiao Si's strong attack in the high post frame and the downing after the block and dismantle kept Boozer and Noah from being distracted; Anthony used his offense in the low post to make the Knicks' interior and exterior defenses unstoppable.
In addition to the four top stars, would-be All-Stars like Iguodala, Boozer, Gallinari and Noah are also playing their part, but everyone else seems to have become a spectator.
In this rhythm of the game, the Knicks also abandoned their chicken-ribbed positional offense and changed to a two-to-three cooperation between stars, which is also one of their best plays, the offensive and defensive rhythm of the game began to be so fast that fans were dizzying, and it was often too late to recall the wonderful shots of the last offense, and the next offense was almost completed.
D'Antoni now regrets letting the Knicks play too meticulously, and the Bulls' scattered system makes him feel that playing too fast will be beneficial to the Bulls. But he didn't think about it, the Knicks are not the Spurs and the Celtics, and the tactics don't add enough to their offense, so instead of playing half-baked positional tactics, it is better to use the bombardment they are best at to compete with the Bulls.
This is a psychological problem, the coach will also have psychological problems, and he will also drill the horns, and the mustache wants to enter the Eastern Conference Finals so much that he focuses on the weaknesses of the opponent, and the previous bright sword spirit has been put away. He forgot that the Knicks are not a team that is good at taking advantage of the opponent's weakness and attacking to win, they are the kind of team that can win no matter who the opponent is or what the opponent is good at, as long as they play what they do best.
Wu Huang played the third quarter, in this quarter he scored 12 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, and the statistics of the whole game have come to 24 points, 5 rebounds and 10 assists, but the score is still ranked fourth in the game.
The score was 78:87, and the Knicks were still down by 9 points after the third quarter, but at least it was much better than the 16-point deficit at the top of the third quarter, and they still had a chance to fight in the final quarter.
"They're running out of energy, and we're the winners of this game!" Wu Huang is not talking nonsense, he feels a little tired when he gets off the field, not to mention Rose, who consumes more physical strength than him, this guy is like a mad dog when he defends him in the first half, and although he uses all his strength on offense in the second half, he must have more physical exertion than him, which will definitely be more tired than him.
Wu Huang knows that his recovery ability is different from ordinary people, he doesn't believe that Rose's physical condition will be better than him, not to mention Anthony, who is definitely not as good as him, he completely disappeared in the second half of the fourth quarter in the last game, and as long as they survive the first half of the fourth quarter today, the Bulls will definitely be turned over by them unless there is a surprise soldier.
D'Antoni didn't let Wu Huang rest in the fourth quarter, and today he only rested for a few minutes between the first and second quarters, but this is the case with most stars in the playoffs, and it is important to have good physical strength at this time, and Wu Huang is very confident in his staying power.
After the start of the fourth quarter, Wu Huang continued to increase the speed to the fastest, and now he has given up playing tactics, to hell with positional warfare or something, at least this season he can only carry out the bombardment to the end. It's not impossible to play a fine job, provided they have to adapt to at least a full regular season, how can they say that they can play whatever they want?
Wu Huang kept launching a "fast attack", and when he didn't have a chance, he played with his teammates to block and dismantle, and Xiao Si played with Monroe when he was not there, the difference is that when Monroe cooperates, he will increase his off-ball running, and let Monroe take on some response tasks.
The Knicks' style of play looks a bit monotonous, but after returning to the right track, the whole team's offense has become fluid, and it is not known whether there are any surprise players on the Bulls' side for the time being, Tony Allen, a defensive engineer, stood up for the Knicks first, and his two consecutive off-ball cut-ins helped the Knicks narrow the gap to 7 points.
Korver naturally became the background, and none of the backcourt players he faced the Knicks could prevent, and he also worked out for two years with the Jazz. At this moment, in the eyes of Bulls fans, Korver is a white scrap who can only shoot three-pointers, with an empty face but not as good as Wu Huangshuai, and he doesn't even have the role of appearance in this series.
Thibodeau looked at Korver and was also very unpleasant, this person's defense is not really that bad, but he is not suitable for his own system, the Bulls' forward players must have first-class athleticism, Korver obviously does not, so under the increasing lack of reuse, even confidence is slowly lost, and naturally the game is a mess.
Anthony is resting off the court at the moment, Rose is still on the court, he is still using his breakthrough to create opportunities, but without Anthony on the weak side to attract the defense, Rose's breakthrough was taken care of by the Knicks, and the efficiency began to decline.
The value of Tony Allen and Green on the defensive end has been evident during this time, and they may not be able to change the team's defensive rating, but in some defensive rounds, they can use their individual defensive ability to make a difference for the team.
At 10:40 in the fourth quarter, Rose broke through Wu Huang and was about to make a jump shot, but this time his breakthrough line choice was guessed by Tony Allen, and the basketball bounced off without touching the basket.
Monroe got the rebound, and Wu Huang led the team to counterattack after receiving the ball, and assisted Tony Allen for a layup again.
Tony Allen is a very passionate player, once a role player like this plays an unexpected performance, it can greatly boost the morale of the team, and now the Knicks are in high spirits, Tony Allen's goal narrowed the gap to 5 points again, and the situation of the Bulls is already very bad, Thibodeau can only ask for a timeout and replace Anthony in advance.
Anthony came on the court and continued to play in the low post, and he especially liked to hold the ball in both low posts in these two games.
D'Antoni also brought Iguodala on early, but the first brother paid the price for another foul to stop Antony.
Tony Allen's bag didn't do much for Anthony, and Anthony also knew how to use his body to separate the defense when he rushed up, and he had to be an inside bag to be useful.
Smalls is good defensively, but it's just good, he can't deal with Noah or Boozer at the same time, and still be able to help Anthony and Rose in time, which is a quality that only Garnett and Duncan have at their peak, and only a few people such as Howard and Tyson Chandler can do it on the active inside.
The Knicks were still a small lineup in the fourth quarter, O'Neal was completely pressed to the bench, and the situation was still a stalemate, and the Knicks' poor defense could not allow them to further narrow the gap, and the two teams began to tug of war around the score of about 5 points until the game entered the final five minutes......
Wu Huang wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead as he dribbled, and although Rose, who was blowing down in front of him, looked tired, he didn't seem to have reached the point of running out of oil.
In this kind of stalemate game, Rose and Anthony finally learned to cooperate, and the two guys began to alternate offenses in the fourth quarter, and they learned to share each other's pressure under pressure, and they also began to take the initiative to share the ball, which is a manifestation of run-in progress.
Xiao Si pulled out to cover, Wu Huang used the cover to break through to the free throw line area, and made a pull-up jump shot against Noah's block...... The basketball went past Noah's fingers, made a circle on the basket and fell into the net!
"There's no physical crisis, so let's see whose key ball is more reliable." Wu Huang still doesn't think he will lose, he almost entered the 190 club man, and now against two iron men who have never even entered the 180 club once, will he lose? (To be continued.) )
