Chapter 414: The Last Attack
Shashewski's expression was a little surprised, the shooting position just now was already two meters away from the three-point line, even according to the NBA's three-point line standard, it was one meter outside the three-point line, which belonged to a long-distance three-point shot. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"I didn't expect Zhang Guan's range to be so far, and the three-point shot just now, his shooting action was not reluctant at all, and he still seemed to be at ease! I think that's probably not his limit, he should have the ability to shoot long-range three-pointers. I didn't expect to underestimate him. Shashewski thought silently.
Next to him, the assistant coach said: "Coach, Zhang Guan's hand seems to be very good, do you want to call a timeout to let his hand feel cool down." ”
"No, there's still a six-point difference, and the ball is in our hands, so as long as we can keep scoring, we don't have to worry." Shashewski said categorically.
As Shashewski spoke, the ball passed to Durant, who turned his back and hit a jumper to make it 86-78.
Zhang Guan still quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, this time he chose a farther shooting point, and stopped two and a half meters away from the three-point line, half a meter farther than just now.
"Another long-range three? Farther than just now? It's too hard, isn't it? Rose was slightly stunned, making the defense slightly slower by half a beat, and Zhang Guan even had time to take a look and then shoot
"It's in again! Zhang Guan scored 9 points in practice, and the current Chinese team is 81-86, only five points behind! Is the situation about to be reversed? Now the Chinese team only needs to successfully defend the next time, and it is possible to chase the score to within one goal! Unexpectedly, at the last moment of the game, there was suspense again! The narrator spoke.
Shashewski still didn't call a timeout, convinced that it was impossible to win with shooting alone.
The U.S. team chose to advance quickly, and the players kept running back and forth, making it difficult for the Chinese team to keep up with the rhythm, and in the end, it was Durant's jumper that made a contribution.
"Watch out for Zhang Guan!" Durant was defending and generally shouted at Rose, but as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Guan made another long-range three-pointer.
88-84, the Chinese team chased down by four points, and there were less than two minutes left before the end of the game.
However, this time, Zhang Guan did not immediately return to the defense after throwing in, but went towards Wei Shao, he knew that the American team would definitely choose to advance quickly, so he directly stepped forward to delay Wei Shao's advancement.
Odom stepped forward to answer and passed the ball to Durant, who didn't make a shot, but gave the ball to Willis again.
Wei Shao tried to break through, had no chance, and passed the ball to Rose. Chandler stepped forward to block the pick-and-roll, and Rose broke through for a layup after the pick-and-roll, but was pulled down by the United Arab Emirates with a foul.
And when people didn't expect it, Rose missed two free throws at this critical time!
Last season, Rose shot just 76.6 percent from the free-throw line, which is clearly unqualified for a defender. This hit rate is reflected in the actual battle, which is equivalent to three hits of four free throws. Missing two free throws in a row is really a rare situation for Rose.
After grabbing the rebound, the UAE handed the ball to Zhang Guan as soon as possible, and Zhang Guan did not miss this opportunity, advanced quickly, and rushed directly in the direction of Rose's defense.
Rose was still annoyed by the situation of missing the two free throws just now, and the failure to score the two free throws was equivalent to contributing a mistake, and it was also a mistake at such a critical moment, so at this time, Rose was a little anxious to make up for it, and his mind was not as calm as just now, and he was accidentally shaken by Zhang Guan.
"Be careful, that's a feint!" Billups shouted from the sidelines, but it was too late.
Zhang Guan rubbed against Rose, looked for a foul, and then took a shot.
Three-pointer again!
"Three plus one! Rose didn't stop Zhang Guan's shot, but paid for a foul and sent Zhang Guan to the free throw line! The Chinese team had a chance to equalize......" The commentator held his breath and stared at the pitch.
"Oh, the penalty went in, the two sides fought to 88 draws, my God, there is a little more than a minute left in the game, I didn't expect the Chinese team to equalize at this time, now it's really hard to say, who will win! Oh! Coach K asked for a timeout, and it seems that he can't sit still either! ”
……
"Team USA called a timeout!" Zhang Guan let out a sigh of relief.
The players of the Chinese team high-fived and celebrated, and several players who had just played couldn't wait to sit on the chairs and rest as much as possible, especially the United Arab Emirates and Sun Yue, who held a water bottle and drank half a bottle in one go, and then poured the rest of the water on their heads.
So far, they are so tired, if they hadn't been involved in the first few attacks, maybe they wouldn't even be able to run defensively.
Both of them played close to 35 minutes, which is not a very long time, especially for the UAE, playing more than 30 minutes is the norm, and it is said that playing 35 minutes will not be tired like this. In the NBA, there are also many ironmen who play 40 minutes in a game.
The total playing time and consecutive minutes played are completely different, for example, if a player plays 32 minutes a game, if it is eight minutes per quarter, then when the game is over, he will certainly not look tired. But if a player is allowed to rest for a period of time and then play for 32 minutes in a row, even if you count the halftime, your body will not be able to hold on. The first 10 minutes are okay, but after 10 minutes, if you haven't rested, your physical strength will drop rapidly, and after 20 minutes, your physical strength will drop very much, and if you play two full quarters in a row without resting, your body will actually be overwhelmed.
When the player feels tired, the rest time is not too long, three minutes is enough, the three minutes of the game time, and then counting the dead ball time, the foul time, the free throw time, the timeout time, the real time that can be used to rest can reach almost five minutes, for professional players, five minutes of rest is enough.
It's just that the current Chinese team can't even take out a three-minute break, and they can only let a few main players stay on the court all the time. And this timeout of the American team is also like a lifesaver for the Chinese team, giving them a chance to breathe.
……
"Zhang Guan, you are really a god! Five of five three-pointers, and a three-plus-one, just now the U.S. team led by 11 points, and I thought we must be finished, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, we would catch up! ”
"Yes, Zhang Guan, you have already scored 48 points with that shot just now, and you have scored more points than the rest of us!"
Zhang Guan smiled and nodded, but he was secretly relieved in his heart.
The few accurate shots just now were the result of Zhang Guan's use of the status potion. For a 100-state Zhang Guan, he is already in the category of super-level play, any pitcher, when he plays at a super-level level, can make five three-point shots, and even have Maddie's magical moment of 35 seconds and 13 minutes.
However, this state is not sustainable, the decline in physical strength, and the consumption of the state after the suspension, Zhang Guan has just filled up to 100 state, after such a period of cooling on the bench, it has dropped to 88, and now he is no longer able to hit as many shots as he did just now.
……
His girlfriend's snoring reached Xiao Li's ears, and he tossed and turned, making it more and more difficult to sleep.
"I can't sleep, I can't sleep at all!" Xiao Li picked up his phone, looked at the time, and said secretly in his heart: "At this time, the game is almost over, I don't know how many points I lost." ”
He hesitated, got out of bed, walked to the living room and turned on the TV.
"Let's take a look, even if the competition is over, isn't it still a medal ceremony! The Chinese team finally won the runner-up, and you can also look at the award ceremony. ”
Xiao Li was pondering, and the TV picture became clear.
"Huh? Looks like the game isn't over yet, is this a timeout? What's the score now? ”
As soon as the TV screen turned, the scores of both sides appeared below.
"What? 88 to 88? Draw? I read that right! It turned out to be a draw? There is no Da Yao anymore, and he can still draw with the American team? There's one minute left, and now it's a tie, and maybe we can win in the end! Xiao Li suddenly became energetic.
……
The director of the sports channel was leaning back in his chair, drowsy.
There was a knock on ......the door, and then a man cautiously stretched his head in to look.
"Director?" The man asked tentatively.
"Come in." The director sat up straight, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, picked up the coffee that was already cold on the table, and took a sip. He asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"The ratings are back and have exceeded 1.5%!"
"Oh?" The director looked at the wall clock on the wall, and then said, "It's all this time, and there are so many people watching the game?" And the ratings have rebounded, isn't it time for the award ceremony? ”
"No, it's not over yet, there's still one minute left! Now the score of both sides is 88 draws. ”
"One more minute? Or is it a draw? How is this possible? Didn't you say that after Da Yao retired from injury, we were already decided? The director stood up abruptly and took the ratings report.
"It's Zhang Guan, he scored 48 points alone! Our entire Chinese team only scored 88 points, and he scored more points than everyone else combined! ”
……
Durant's expression looked a little unnatural, he scored 38 points in the last game, and he has caused a sensation in the entire World Championships, originally Durant thought that this would be the highest score in this World Championships, and it is impossible for anyone to surpass himself, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Guan scored 16 points in just a few minutes, and his personal score also came to an astonishing 48 points.
"If Zhang Guan scores another goal, he will break the 50-point mark, I really didn't expect his scoring ability to be so strong, especially the kind of three-point shot just now, which is really scary. Today I have seen that there are people outside the sky, and after I go back, I must practice hard for three points! Durant secretly made up his mind in his heart.
At the same time, the competitive spirit in Durant's heart is also difficult to suppress.
Although there is only one minute left, the American team did not delay time, as long as the tactics are out, even if there are more than ten seconds left in the offensive time, the American team will not hesitate to score, they have strong confidence in themselves.
Breakthroughs, emergency stops, jump shots, ball in, Durant's simple scoring means make it a little difficult for the Chinese team's defenders to deal with. The Chinese team is not as tall as Durant, not as fast as Durant, not as physical as Durant, and not as good as Durant in terms of experience.
Durant's score looked very easy this time, and the score became 90-88, and the United States took the lead.
"Watch out for Zhang Guan's three-point shot!" Durant spoke as he returned to the defense.
Zhang Guan repeated his old tricks, quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and suddenly made a slap away from the three-point line.
"It's still the same trick!" Rose pounced in advance with an arrow step, and at the same time, the figure of Wei Shao not far away flashed and rushed through the assistant defense, this time the defense of the American team came prepared.
However, this time, Zhang Guan didn't shoot, he didn't even stop the ball, and immediately rushed forward after a physical beating. I saw Zhang Guan change direction and flash past Rose, and rushed into the three-point line while Wei Shao had not yet come.
"It's not a three-point shot! Oops, tricked! The players of the American team were stunned, they thought that Zhang Guan would still make a three-point jumper, and Chandler had even begun to face the basket, ready to grab the rebound, but they didn't expect that this time, Zhang Guan chose another way to score.
Rose had been left behind by Zhang Guan, who rushed all the way to the free throw line and jumped to shoot.
The jump shot at the free throw line facing the basket is not difficult, even junior high school students can maintain a certain shooting rate in this position, not to mention the unguarded space, which is a must-score for professional guard players, if this position is unmarked and can't shoot, it can almost be regarded as a mistake.
The basketball went into the basket and the score was tied again.
"50 points, Zhang Guan got 50 points!" The narrator shouted excitedly. Whether it's in the NBA or the World Championships, scoring 50 points in a single game is a very rare occurrence to dominate the headlines of basketball tomorrow.
Shashewski decisively called a timeout and laid out tactics.
"There are 29 seconds left, and the American team's attack should take 24 seconds! We've got at least five seconds, maybe six, two seconds to dribble to the frontcourt, and the remaining four seconds to make a pick-and-roll shot. At least I don't know what tactics the American team chooses this time, whether it is two points or three points? Deng Huade silently calculated in his heart.
"Put two points and defend three points." Zhang Guan said to his teammates. In fact, even if Zhang Guan doesn't speak, his teammates all know what to do now, the game is in the final stage, there are 29 seconds left, if you can prevent a ball, it is very good, if you can't prevent it, you must give priority to defensive three-point shots.
The game started again, and the U.S. team made substitutions, Rose and Westbrook went off the court at the same time, and replaced Billups and Gordon, Billups shot 43% from three-point range at one point, and Gordon also had a three-point shooting rate of nearly 39%. Compared with Rose and Wei Shao, these two people's three-point shots are obviously much more reliable. And Curry's words, although he has a 43% three-point shooting rate, after all, he didn't play in the whole game, maybe his hand was cold, so Shashewski didn't let him play.
The two players on the front line are Durant and Granger, Durant as a core player must stay on the court, and Granger has also nearly 40% three-point shooting rate, although his three-point shooting level has declined last season, but compared to Odom, Guy and Iguodala, it is still much more accurate.
In the center position, Lefu replaced Chandler, and although Lefou's height does not have an advantage, Shashewski still values his ability on the offensive end.
Of the five people on the court, except for Durant, the other four all changed, and the U.S. team began their last offense. (To be continued.) )
