Chapter 83: The Golden Twin Guns of Tragedy

The Nuggets have set their sights on championships since they began building the Golden Twin Guns last year. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info for this reason Anthony gave up a lot of balls, he used to play how he wanted, how happy he wanted.

But since Iverson, the two have needed to share the ball. And Iverson is more famous than Anthony, and sometimes Anthony feels that he is not in charge, but in the big one.

But for the sake of the championship, Anthony can put up with that, and the management can put up with it. But if they can't win the championship this year, then the Golden Twin Guns will face the possibility of disbanding.

No superstar wants to be crushed on his head, and so is Anthony. And the management's impression of Iverson is not very good, and Iverson's reputation has been mixed over the years. To the fans, Iverson is a man, and to the team management, Iverson is a cancer.

For the sake of a championship, the Nuggets' management can put up with a cancer. But if Iverson can't bring a championship, then Nuggets management will definitely sweep him away.

In the midst of such a crisis, the playoffs began.

Houston, April 20.

The starting lineups for both sides have been decided, with the Rockets being Da Yao, Scola, Battier, Maddy and Alston. The Nuggets are Camby, Kenyon Martin, Anthony, Anthony Carter, Iverson.

Wu Di still hasn't gotten a chance, but after a season of blows, he's used to it. It would have been strange for Adelman to have him start.

Da Yao and Camby jump ball, Camby is a jumping man, and Da Yao's bounce is notoriously bad. Don't think about it at all, Da Yao won't win, and the Rockets players on the court have long been ready to defend.

Camby tossed the ball into Iverson's hands, and Iverson was in front of Alston. The two are the same kind of players, both are not tall, extremely fast, and are happy to attack on their own. The difference is that Iverson's strength is stronger than Alstom's, and his fame is greater than Alstom's.

However, Alston knew Iverson well and knew him better than he knew himself. So he still has some experience in defending Iverson, and he also knows that he can't completely prevent Iverson, so he lets Iverson shoot to defend his breakthrough.

One step away from Iverson, all Alstom's attention was on Iverson. He didn't even watch basketball, as long as he kept Iverson, it was a success.

In the face of Alstom, who has such a belief in defense, Iverson has a kind of dog rush. Can you still have a good time? Iverson could only pass the ball to Anthony and try to run out of the open space, his shooting was really not very good, if his three-point ratio was more than half that of Anthony, he would shoot it directly.

Anthony is a little more relaxed against Battier's defense, at least he won't be limited like Iverson. After receiving the ball, Anthony raised the ball above his head and pretended to shoot.

But Battier was not fooled at all, and directly blocked his hands in front of his eyes, disturbing his vision. Battier rarely blocks when he defends shots, and he's not known for blocking.

However, Anthony still found an opportunity, and as soon as Anthony got close, he immediately took the ball back, twisted and squeezed past Battier and slotted inside.

At this time, the Rockets are not very easy to do, Scola came to make up for the defense, and missed Kenyon Martin, as long as Anthony passed the ball, it was almost inevitable to score. And what if Da Yao came over to make up for the defense? Just missed Camby, Camby's offensive ability is not very good, but he can't stand him close to the basket, he can dunk in one step, and he must score.

It doesn't work without defense, and Anthony's scoring ability is well known when he can't defend. Adelman emphasized before the game that Anthony Iverson must be guarded to the death, and Camby can be let go when the time is right, he is a defensive center, just let him play, and it would be good to have more than 20 points in a game. But Anthony and Iverson can't, once they feel good, one can beat a team.

Da Yao abandoned Camby and came over to make up for the defense. Anthony passes the ball to Camby, who cuts to the basket and scores a dunk.

Turning around, Maddie made a direct three-pointer under Anthony Carter's defense. Anthony Carter is very innocent, he is about the same height as Iverson, he was ready for this substitute, but he didn't expect to play as a starter.

Originally, this game was supposed to be played by Nahula, but Nahula's pace was too slow, and against Maddie, it was looking for abuse. So the Nuggets still got on the more reassuring Anthony Carter, but they were still abused, and they were directly a colander, leaking more than Iverson.

With no choice, Anthony could only switch defenses with Carter and let Carter defend against Battier. Then Anthony saw Battier also shoot a three-pointer on Carter's head, and the less than 1.9 meters tall went to play small forward? Or against a 3-and-D player, isn't that a three-point shot?

Then the Golden Twin Guns were tragic, it took them half a day to get two points, and in the blink of an eye, the Rockets shot three points, Carter's presence made the Golden Twin Guns see no hope of victory.

The Nuggets' coach also saw the problem, and immediately called a timeout to replace Carter with Nahoola.

Adelman also expected the Nuggets to make a substitution, and also replaced Battier with Wu Di to defend Anthony.

When the game restarted, Anthony once again held the ball and decided to take advantage of the change of formation to score a few more points and catch up on the two points behind.

But when he was ready to break through again, the rookie in front of him was even tougher than Battier. At least Anthony can eat Battier by strength, but this rookie's strength and speed are better than Anthony's, and he can't eat it.

After more than ten seconds on the outside, Anthony still didn't find a good opportunity. With a horizontal heart, Anthony dribbled the ball in a cross-step, and then pulled back and jumped with the trend, he wanted to make a strong throw!

As soon as Anthony jumped up, he saw an arm appear in front of him, not only covering the basket, but also rising towards the ball in his hand.

How could Anthony let a rookie cover himself? He immediately flicked his wrist and threw the ball in the air to Nahura on the side.

"Smack!"

Maddie suddenly rushed over, slapped the basketball away, and then struck all the way to the frontcourt.

Iverson immediately chased after him, but as soon as Maddie reversed, he handed the ball to his left hand, got out of the way where Iverson could steal, and took Iverson to the basket and ended the offense with a layup.

Iverson helplessly watched Maddie go to the basket, he was more than 20 centimeters behind Maddie, and it was too difficult to block Maddie.
