Chapter 1340: Four Pairs of Pit Fathers
Billups' 8-0 spurt gave the Nuggets a five-point lead. Lee finally made a few attacks, but Anthony scored four more points in a row to widen the gap between the two teams again.
With seven minutes left in the third quarter, the Nuggets led by seven points at 80-73, the largest margin difference between the two teams in today's game.
David. Lee has done his best in the few minutes that Wu Huang is away, although he has developed some low-post moves in the past two years, but after all, he is from Brother Rough, and his reliance on energy is still greater than skill, and this is already the only one-on-one sure scorer for the Knicks except for Wu Huang and Harrington.
The problem with the Knicks' second leader is still the lack of height, as the team's second or third scoring point is not bad, it is a bit difficult to play the ace, he is better at random battles than attacking arrows.
After Wu Huang returned to the field, he immediately liberated David. Lee, who also feels that he is better at playing support and second points of attack, which can bring out his enthusiasm and awareness, and play to his strengths and avoid weaknesses. As for Harrington, he has been confirmed as the team's sixth man, which goes well with his ability to score points.
Harrington's form today is somewhat similar to the Nuggets' Anthony, and both of them are very hot.
Wu Huang naturally wouldn't let go of such a good brush assist target, and as soon as he got on the court, he assisted Harrington on a mid-range shot, and the latter scored 5 points in one go. Lee also hit a layup, and the Knicks quickly narrowed the deficit to two points.
Anthony played the full third quarter, and on the final offensive attack of the quarter, he hit another 3-pointer to give the Nuggets a two-point lead at 96-94 after the first three quarters.
Three quarters were played. Knicks side. Wu Huang had 19 points, 8 rebounds, 18 assists, 2 steals and 5 turnovers. Harrington had 25 points and five rebounds, David Lee had 15 points and eight rebounds, Chandler had 14 points and three rebounds, and Gallinari had 12 points and four rebounds.
For the Nuggets, Anthony chipped in 40 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Billups had 30 points and 6 assists, JR Smith had 10 points, and Nene had 6 points. Kenyon. Martin 5 points.
Through the scoring data of the players of the two teams, it can be seen that the Nuggets are by no means a model of team fighting in this game, and the so-called rock-solid defense is almost invisible, but they are fighting against the Knicks throughout the game...... The team still seems to be an offensive team at heart, and at least this season they have significantly reduced the proportion of defense to the core.
Anthony and Anderson each hit 3-pointers to give the Nuggets an eight-point lead shortly after the start of the fourth quarter.
After a short break in the third quarter, Wu Huang didn't go off the court again, and he had already grabbed 18 assists, two assists to make history. At this time, he will not come down to rest no matter what, and get 20 assists first. That's his priority.
At this time, if you ask Wu Huang which is more important, "win or lose" or "personal data"?
Wu Huang will definitely say: If it is the seventh game of the finals, it must be that the outcome of the game is more important; But if it was an ordinary regular season, he didn't have such a high consciousness, and after getting 13 assists in the first half, he actually put "20 assists in a single game" at the forefront.
Speaking of which, brushing "assists" is really less hateful than "brushing scores", and he is now close to 20 assists, and the Nuggets don't seem to deliberately get in the way to destroy his career milestones.
This will break the record of the youngest 50+ points, and I am afraid that the defense of two or three people will already come up.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Knicks played a double-point guard tactic again, D'Antoni originally wanted Wu Huang to be released from the organizational task and give full play to his offensive ability to start stealing points with the Nuggets, but Wu Huang did not do so, he still put the assist task in the first place, in fact, he still paid too much attention to personal data and records.
In the 10th minute and 51 seconds, the Knicks attacked, Wu Huang through the side cover of his teammates, he had already run out of an empty space, and received a pass from Du Hong, but he did not make a decisive shot, but broke through to the basket again in one move, attracted the bag and passed the ball to Channing outside the three-point line. Fry.
This kind of offense is obviously too muddy, after Fry received the basketball, the shooting opportunity was not as good as Wu Huang's own shot just now, just listen to the sound of "clang"! Frye faced the defense and failed to throw the ball in.
Birdman Anderson grabbed the rebound, the Nuggets immediately launched a fast-break counterattack, Anthony who rushed up at full speed was like a nimble little tank, the Knicks' defense was simply unstoppable, and the "melon" received the basketball and carried Danny. Green and Gallinari's two-man defense scored the ball and also made a 2+1.
As soon as the fourth quarter came up, the Nuggets played 3 2+1s in a row, and a wave of 9:0 attacks directly widened the difference between the two teams to as many as 11 points.
D'Antoni hurriedly called a timeout, and the experienced one of his thoughts about Wu Huang would not be clear, but at this time, he couldn't say anything to Wu Huang's face, and the smartest thing to do was to help Wu Huang complete his 20+ assists, so that his core would put all his energy back to the game itself.
Wu Huang himself also knew that he was too much in pursuit of assist data in the two attacks just now, delaying the fighter, which would be seized by the Nuggets to play a climax.
"However, I've already made mistakes, if I haven't got 20+ assists, wouldn't all the mistakes just made in vain?" Wu Huang comforted himself in his heart, he really didn't think he was wrong, he usually made so many contributions to the team, but now he is just selfish and corrupt, is it completely reasonable?
However, his last two assists came a little slowly...... It wasn't until 6:15 of the fourth quarter that Wu Huang's 19th assist came belatedly, which was a basket split between two people and assisted Milicic to score two points on a layup.
With a score of 100:112, the Nuggets not only played a climax in the first half of the fourth quarter, but also fell into a scoring drought for several minutes. Originally, this was a good opportunity for the Knicks to take advantage of the opportunity to catch up with the score, but judging by the current score, it is clear that they did not take advantage of this rare opportunity to turn the tables during this time.
Opportunities are usually fleeting, and failure to grasp them is usually retribution.
Billups' next three-point cold shot directly brought the score gap to 15 points, and New York fans in front of the TV felt as if their team had been stretched so wide. That's not the rhythm of the first three quarters!
Emperor Wu finally regretted it a little now. Since the fourth quarter, he has shifted his focus to assists. His wonderful passing feeling was thrown into the Pacific Ocean all of a sudden, and he no longer had the kind of good state to be able to pass the basketball to his teammates at will, but he wanted to pursue assists too much, and he wanted to reduce his mistakes, and gradually felt that his wrist was stiff, and the more he wanted to let the basketball go, the more it would compete with you.
Just halfway through the fourth quarter, Wu Huang has already contributed 3 turnovers in a single quarter. With eight turnovers in the game, it looks like he's still hoping to get an alternate quadruple today.
"The good is not working, the bad is quasi-spiritual", Wu Huang has just fallen this year, and Harrington's shot on the offensive end smashed out of the basket, and the basketball flew right to his head.
Billups and Wu Huang jumped together, the result was naturally no suspense, the former was undoubtedly victorious than the strength, but compared to the bounce and arm span, Billups put two bricks under his feet was not Wu Huang's opponent.
"9th rebound!" Wu Huang grabbed the rebound. He took a step to the basket and threw the basketball into the basket before the Nuggets player could make up the defense.
The big screen in the Pepsi Center arena. At this moment, Wu Huang's personal data was played in time - 21 points, 9 rebounds, 19 assists and 8 turnovers, Wu Huang is indeed not far from a wonderful quadruple-double.
"Chinese boy, congratulations on getting 4 pairs!"
"One more mistake!"
"The youngest Mr. Four Pairs!"
“……”
The entire arena was filled with the cynicism of Denver fans, and Wu Huang's heart hurt, and the fatigue in his body began to surge.
However, the more he wanted assists, the more good things didn't come; The more you don't want to make mistakes, the harder it is to avoid bad things......
At 4 minutes and 45 seconds in the fourth quarter, Wu Huang saw Chandler running back on the baseline and a witty empty cut basket, and made a good opportunity to directly assist his teammates to score.
Wu Huang hesitated slightly, worried that he would make a mistake but did not dare to pass the ball, and finally could only pass the basketball horizontally to the far end in the bag, and unsurprisingly was cut off from the middle, and the 9th mistake was recorded under his account.
"It's over!" Wu Huang really wanted to slap himself in the mouth, this ball was passed decisively, and his 20th assist was won't be in hand?
The Diggers fought back again after the break, and the score gap between the two teams has come to 18 points, and the Knicks have basically explained this game without seeing the five-minute game time.
D'Antoni did not replace Wu Huang, since the game is lost, then completely change the game task to help him brush the data, otherwise what else can he do?
The Knicks also called a timeout for this, and the mustache took the opportunity to unify the thoughts of the whole team, and there was only one last task left in today's game - to help Wu Huang brush up the assist.
The New York players stared wide-eyed, and this thing was new!
However, since the coaches have said so, then they will do as they are told......
Emperor Wu listened to D'Antoni's arrangement on the side, but his heart became more and more uneasy.
In this game, they had a great chance to win, it can be said that it was all their own selfishness that led to the loss, but the coach not only did not mention these at all, but did his best to help himself to break the record, such a good coach is really rare.
Emperor Wu didn't know that D'Antoni had already scolded him in his heart!
But the matter has come to this point, it is useless to criticize education again, Wu Huang is not a stupid person, so it is better to simply be a favor, who makes this team now the biggest name of Wu Huang, who calls him the uncle of the Knicks.
It's not that the New York players can't see that the reason for the collapse of the game in the fourth quarter is Wu Huang, but they can't say anything either.
Kobe Bryant is on the Lakers, James is on the Cavaliers...... These people have made a lot of mistakes in their respective teams, and fans can naturally complain about it after the game, but coaches and teammates must not mention it, otherwise they just don't want to mix, this is one of the privileges of big-name stars, they will never be wrong!
Wu Huang was touched by his head coach, and after playing positively, he accidentally robbed David. Lee had a rebound, and he was alive in the air and knocked David away. Lee got his tenth rebound.
"With a triple-double and 20+ assists left for the last assist, I will definitely be able to complete this task." Wu Huang held the basketball and showed a happy smile, completely unaware of David who fell to the floor next to him. Lee, who was clutching his ass with a grinning expression.
"Attack!" Wu Huang shouted and led his teammates to the front court.
The New York players followed one after another, and the Knicks' offense was like a storm for a while, roaring and killing......
Gallinari received a pass from Wu Huang on the right wing, did not continue to break through to the basket, and pulled out his hand with a quick stop......
"Bang dang!"
Chandler received a pass from Wu Huang and shot directly......
"Bang dang!"
David. Li received a pass from Wu Huang and shot directly outside the penalty area......
"Three don't stick!"
…………
The Nuggets were originally taken aback by Wu Huang's momentum at the beginning, and their own people grabbed their own rebounds in the game, which is very rare, and it is generally something that players can only do after they are too focused and enter a state of selflessness.
Therefore, even if they lead by nearly 20 points, the Nuggets players do not dare to be careless when they see this, and they are worried that the Knicks, who are shocked by the offensive firepower, will make a Jedi comeback in the last few minutes, which will not be fun.
But who knew that the Knicks' counteroffensive was so strong, but it turned out to be such a "blind shot" style of play?
This...... Are you sure you're not mistaken?
"That's right, that's how we fight!" Wu Huang secretly shouted in his heart, their current tactic is - dribble over half court in 3 seconds, and shoot in one second after receiving the ball!
The Knicks took advantage of this must-shoot style within ten seconds, and after shooting three shots at the enemy in succession, they finally ushered in the tactical requirement of one shot.
Harrington and Gallinari each hit 3-pointers, and the Knicks players themselves didn't know what was going on, and they actually played an 11-4 counterattack climax.
At 1:41 in the fourth quarter, the Knicks narrowed the score slightly to 111-122, but still trailed by 11 points.
However, these are not the point, Wu Huang finally got his 20th assist, which is the point, and the team's first task was finally completed by the Knicks.
Seeing this, D'Antoni didn't say a word, and hurriedly replaced Emperor Wu.
In the few minutes just now, Wu Huang not only got two assists, but also successfully made another mistake, which he really completed a wonderful quadruple-double that no one has completed for many years - 23 points, 10 rebounds, 21 assists and 10 turnovers, which is a real quadruple-double data.
Wu Huang sat on the sidelines and couldn't help but scratch his head fiercely, what he wanted to create today was not a shit quadruple pair, but a record of 20+ assists.
But at this moment, I believe that no one who watches this game will care about his "youngest 20+ assist record", and they must be amazed at his wonderful quadruple doubles at this time! (To be continued.) )
