Chapter 407: Maddie Possessed?
Turkglou stood in the middle line, his face rather solemn. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Will Zhang Guan shoot in the end? If the average player wants to have this kind of shooting posture, it is impossible without millions of practices, even if Zhang Guan is an athletic genius, he must have practiced hundreds of thousands of shots! The amount of practice of hundreds of thousands of times must have been practiced a long time ago, yes, Zhang Guan can shoot. ”
Thinking of this, Turkglou looked back at the three-point line, and another question arose in his mind.
"How is Zhang Guan's three-point shooting ability?"
In the 2010 World Championships, the three-point line was still 6.25 meters, and according to FIBA regulations, the three-point line will be raised to 6.75 meters after October 1, 2010, which means that the World Championships in Turkey is the last international competition to use the 6.25-meter three-point line. The NBA's three-point line is 7.25 meters, which is a full meter longer than the 6.25-meter three-point line of the World Championships, so FIBA's three-point shot, in the eyes of NBA players, is just a long-distance two-point shot.
Looking at the three-point line, which is much closer than the NBA, Turkeglu frowned silently, for a player who has practiced hundreds of thousands of shots, the three-point line of 6.25 meters is really nothing.
"Am I going to expand my defense to the three-point line?" Turkglou looked at the time display board in the arena.
"There are 22 seconds left in the game, which is exactly the right time for a full attack, and if you move faster, you can run two or three times, or after the first attack failed, you can organize another attack. How will the Chinese team choose? Will they choose to grab two points? Or a last-minute three-point shot? ”
The question in Tekeglu's mind was quickly answered, and after the Chinese team served, Zhang Guan didn't even pay attention to the UAE who served him, and rushed directly to the front court with the ball.
"What is Zhang Guan going to do, is he preparing to grab points? Is the Chinese team ready to get a two-point as a guarantee quickly? Turkglou subconsciously stepped back, knowing that the best way to get a quick two-point was to break through.
"No, it's a pull-up jumper!" Thinking of this, Tekegrew found that he was a little far away from Zhang Guan, and he hurriedly moved half a step forward.
At this moment, Zhang Guan suddenly stopped, and then jumped, and Turkegrew noticed that Zhang Guan's jump position was just outside the three-point line.
"Three-pointers!" Turkglou jumped up quickly and made a blocking motion.
……
"Grab points, but grab three-pointers? What kind of tactic is this? Coach Bogdan stood up and stretched out his head to look at Zhang Guan on the field.
The Chinese team has 22 seconds to attack, which is enough to arrange one or two tactical coordination, and if it is a three-point shot, wouldn't it be better to save it for the last second? And if it's a rush shot, the two-point shot is definitely more secure. So Coach Bogdan couldn't understand why the Chinese team chose to shoot a three-pointer when there were still 22 seconds of offensive time.
Coach Bogdan couldn't figure it out, and the corner of his eye involuntarily glanced at Deng Huade not far away, but found that Deng Huade had his mouth open, with the same surprised expression.
"How could Deng Huade have such an expression? What is there to be surprised about the tactics he arranged himself! Bogdan was even more puzzled, and he turned his attention back to the court, by which time the basketball had finished gliding in the air and was firmly in the hoop.
Three-pointer scored!
"Sure enough!" Coach Bogdan didn't hesitate to call a timeout.
Zhang Guan's attack, from the start of receiving the ball to the basket into the basket, took a total of 5 seconds, which can be said to be a very fast attack, but the benefit of 5 seconds is even greater, with this ball, the Chinese team led by 1 point.
However, Coach Bogdan was not frustrated, he even thought that the Turkish team was the dominant side, thinking that the ball was in the hands of the Turkish team, and the initiative was in the hands of the Turkish team, and 17 seconds was enough for him to complete a wonderful tactical coordination, and the difference of 1 point, only need to score the ball, and the Turkish team can overtake.
Coach Bogdan kept drawing on the tactical board and laid out a very complex tactic. On the other side, Deng Huade couldn't guess Bogdan's tactics at all, so he simply started some sensationalism, such as preventing this ball, you can win, and so on.
The timeout was short and the players from both sides were quickly back on the field.
"For Turkey, as long as this goal can be scored, it can be won. With 17 seconds left in the game, Turkey has plenty of time to know who Turkey will hand over the final attack. In addition to Asik, Turkglu, Ilyasova, Tuncheri and Onan all have good scoring ability and could all be the ones to finish the attack! As the commentator spoke, the Turkish team had already sent the ball.
Tuncheri controlled the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, but Zhang Guan pounced at this time, and he directly grabbed Tuncheri.
The referee was stunned for a second, confirmed that what he saw was correct, and then blew the whistle.
"It's a foul! Zhang Guan has committed a foul! Zhang Guan fouls Toncheri! ”
"What's going on? Zhang Guan actually chose to take the initiative to foul? Is it that the number of free throws is not yet enough, so you want to delay Turkey's attack? Let me see, oh gosh, it's time to serve, and Toncheri is going to make a free throw! ”
"Zhang Guan obviously deliberately fouled Tuncheri, why, why did he do it? The current Chinese team is obviously 1 point ahead, as long as they hold on to this goal, they can win. However, in this situation, as long as Toncheri scores both free throws, the Turkish team will overtake by one point! ”
Coach Bogdan was also surprised, and he had a feeling of punching cotton in his heart. Originally, he had prepared a very complex set of offensive tactics, but before he could use them, Toncheri was sent to the free throw line.
"The leading side took the initiative to foul, is it for the ball? Zhang Guan is so confident, will he definitely be able to score the next goal? Coach Bogdan thought silently.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Toncheri hit both free throws, and this time, the Chinese team did not ask for a timeout, because Deng Huade had already used up all the timeouts.
Zhang Guan dribbled directly to the scene, stopped in front of the three-point line again, jumped up and shot, still in a picturesque posture.
"This trick again? Another three-point shot? Turkglou immediately turned his head and watched as the basketball flew into the hoop.
"Again!" Turkeru said in amazement.
The home fans cried out in disappointment, and now the score is 80-82, with the Chinese team leading by two points.
Coach Bogdan's face suddenly became embarrassed, he didn't expect Zhang Guan to shoot a three-pointer again, and this goal made the Turkish team fall into absolute passivity. With a two-point difference, the Turkish team will face the choice of whether to have two points or three points.
Coach Bogdan called the last timeout, he arranged a two-point tactic, after all, it was a home game, and the Chinese team also lacked Da Yao, and if it dragged into overtime, it would be more beneficial to the Turkish team.
The game restarted, with Toncheri dribbling forward while the other players started to run, ready to create an offensive gap according to the tactical arrangement.
In the NBA rules, the serving side can serve in the front court after a timeout in the last two minutes of the game, but there is no such thing in the FIBA rules, so players still need to dribble from the back court to the front court.
However, Toncheri had only run two steps before Zhang Guan was already pressing, and then as soon as he pulled Toncheri's arm, the referee's whistle sounded.
"Zhang Guan has fouled again! Tuncheri is back to the free-throw line. What is this? Slashing tactics? ”
"It's just a one-point lead just now, and now you have to take the initiative to foul two points ahead, how can the Chinese team have such a strange tactical arrangement?"
Amid the discussion, Toncheri walked to the free-throw line for some inexplicable reason.
As Turkey's No. 1 point guard, Toncheri's psychological quality is still very strong, and he scored two free throws, and the score became 82 draws.
At this point, there was no timeout for both coaches and the players were left to their own devices.
The UAE sent the ball to Zhang Guan as fast as he could, and Zhang Guan, as just now, rushed to the front court quickly, and at this time the Turkish team had not yet organized a defense, such as Asik, who was trying to run back.
"Oops, before Asik is in place, Zhang Guan rushed over! How does he choose? Is it a breakthrough? Or shooting? What the? It's still a three-pointer! Before Tekegrew could step forward to block, Zhang Guan chose another three-pointer.
"Huh!" The basketball landed solidly in the basket.
"Three-pointers, three three-pointers in a row!" The commentator of Central Electric shouted excitedly: "Zhang Guan grabbed three points for the third time in a row, and he scored again." In 13 seconds, Zhang Guan scored 9 points in a row, which reminded me of Maddie back then, today's Zhang Guan is really possessed by Maddie! ”
On the monitor, there are 3.8 seconds left in the game, and when Zhang Guan made the first three-pointer just now, there were 17.1 seconds left, which means that Zhang Guan only took 13.3 seconds to score 9 points.
What's more critical is that now the Chinese team is 85-82, leading by three points.
Coach Bogdan's face turned pale by the way, and now they are three points behind, even with a three-pointer, at best. With only 3.8 seconds left in the game, the Turkish team must shoot a three-pointer to drag the game into overtime.
And this short 3.8 seconds also includes the time for the back court to run to the front court, during which it will also be hindered by defenders, and maybe 3.8 seconds will just run through half of the court.
What's more, the Turkish team has no timeout, and if there is a timeout, he may be able to arrange a tactical coordination, and now he can only rely on the player's own performance.
In the NBA's game rules, the last two minutes of the pause can be served in the middle line, which also allows the NBA to arrange a lot of lore tactics, even if there are only a few tenths of a second left, there will be a lore. However, in international basketball rules, there is no mid-line serve after a timeout, and if there is only a few tenths of a second left, you can only catch the ball in the backcourt and throw it casually to the frontcourt. It is precisely because of this rule that there are far fewer last-minute kills in international basketball than in the NBA.
So even if there is a timeout for the Turkish team, Bogdan can only arrange the tactics of long passing, otherwise 3.8 seconds will not be enough at all.
……
Turkoglu had just reached half-time when he saw that the clock was almost zero.
"Damn, it's too late!" Turkeru reluctantly threw the basketball to the basket, and at this time he still had Zhang Guan's defense in front of him, so he could only throw the ball out by feeling.
Sighs of disappointment rang out from all around, and Tekglou didn't have to look to know that the goal had not been scored.
Turkoglu is not Curry, this kind of shooting by feeling in the midfield is obviously no different from blindness, not to mention that there is a defender in front of him, and the possibility of scoring goals is infinitely close to zero.
The score was finally fixed at 85-82, and the Chinese team won the victory.
"Lost, we lost!" Turkglu hid his face with his hands in pain.
Ilyasova bowed her head helplessly.
Asik stood still, then closed his eyes, not daring to look at all this.
Coach Bogdan is confused, he is confused for himself, the Turkish team lost, as the head coach, maybe it is time to resign.
On the other hand, on the Chinese team, everyone has rushed to the court and hugged each other.
In the semi-finals of the World Championships, the Chinese team has achieved unprecedented good results!
……
"Can Zhang Guan shoot?" U.S. head coach Shashewski slammed to his feet from the couch.
"That's right, in the game just ended, the Chinese team defeated Turkey 85-82, and Zhang Guan scored nine points in the last 13 seconds, all relying on three-point shots." Assistant coach D'Antoni said with a smile on his face.
"He's really going to shoot! 13 seconds and 9 minutes? Is Maddie possessed? Shashewski took a deep breath, but his mind couldn't help but think of the scene two years ago, when he was killed by Zhang Guan.
"It's time for the post-match press conference, would you like to take a look?" D'Antoni then asked.
"It's time to take a look." Shhashevsky walked over to the computer and found footage of the live webcast of the press conference.
In front of the camera, Zhang Guanzheng was talking eloquently.
"I'm going to make a movie, it's related to basketball, I've thought of a name, it's called Basketball Vision!" Zhang Guan said with a smile on his face.
"Making a movie? Zhang Guan wants to make a movie? ”
"The world of basketball? What a strange name! ”
"Will Zhang Guan star himself?"
The reporters discussed in low voices.
"It's an inspirational story, and the movie is mostly about a basketball referee. The basketball referee was born blind, and everyone said that as a blind man, he could not be a basketball referee. But this blind man had a dream, he relied on his own efforts, became a basketball referee, he learned to see the world with his 'heart', and finally stood on the stage of the World Championships! Zhang Guan continued: "How is it, isn't it very inspirational?" ”
"Oh!" The reporters at the scene immediately burst into laughter, this kind of nonsensical plot was obviously a joke told by Zhang Guan.
Next to him, a FIBA tournament officer was pale, and he immediately heard the meaning of Zhang Guan's words.
"Looks like we're in trouble." (To be continued.) )
