Chapter 289: The Great Shark vs. Osborne
Although they all think that their scoring ability is no worse than those guys in the West, in the long run, the interior players in the West will still have a lot of physical strength to score, and the East side will not be able to.
Osborne's three-point shot was just enough to erase such an unfavorable situation, so they all agreed to Osborne's request with a unified mind.
Osborne didn't expect his temporary teammates to be so powerful, and no one stopped him, he was very moved in his heart, so he said: "Thank you for your understanding and help, this year's victory belongs to us." ”
Osborne's bold words also made the Eastern All-Stars excited, and said: "The scoring is up to you, and the rest is up to us, I just hope you can overcome the difficulties and get your wish." ”
Osborne didn't reply after listening to it, he felt that action was better than words, and after the timeout, the Western All-Star team's possession, Tim Duncan served to Steve Francis, and then slowly ran to the Eastern penalty area for a slot.
Then Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett directly stuck Vince Carter and Ben Wallace, and O'Neal received the ball from Francis and hit the board directly and put the ball into the basket.
The West led by two points again, but Osborne would not let O'Neal specialize in the front, after all, this was the last moment to open the score, after all, there was not much time for the game, so Osborne ran desperately, constantly wandering around various areas, but unfortunately he was targeted by the Western All-Star team, no matter where he ran, there would be at least one defensive formation around him.
Osborne didn't expect the Western All-Stars to spend so much effort to defend themselves, so Osborne signaled Iverson not to worry about his side, Osborne stood directly near the center circle and signaled Iverson to pass the ball to him, Iverson also saw Osborne's ultra-long-distance three-point shot, Osborne's three-point shot can be said to be the pinnacle There is no major flaw, so Iverson did not hesitate at all.
Throw the ball directly to Osborne's side, Osborne also knew that the opportunity must not be missed and will not come again, so he threw the basketball out directly, although it was a bit reckless, but if he didn't do it, the guy called Kobe Bryant was about to rush over, so Osborne couldn't hesitate too much, otherwise the opportunity would be lost.
Kobe Bryant was very angry when he saw that Osborne dared to ignore him, and came directly to Osborne's side and said, "Don't be too arrogant, you kid, do you know what will happen if you anger me?" ”
Osborne said, "Oh, are you going to keep striking iron?" I know that you are striking iron, but you live up to your reputation, do you want to show your iron-striking skills? ”
Osborne's words immediately angered Kobe Bryant, and Kobe Bryant said directly: "You know my score is very good, do you want to compete with me." ”
"I won't fall for you, you don't even have anything to compare with me, I can tell you, my score is not comparable to anyone in the league today, don't think I'm bragging, I can tell you, you know that my three-point shot will never be biased."
Kobe Bryant listened and said, "So what, I know I will never let you score too comfortably, if you don't know each other." I'll show you what death entanglement is. ”
"Fart's death entanglement, your defense is just brute force, some things don't rely on hard work, you have to rely on talent. Your defensive talent isn't as good as your offensive talent, so there's no way you're going to be able to stop me. ”
Kobe Bryant heard Osborne's sarcasm, and he no longer argued, the best excuse is performance, if the performance on the court is good, all doubts will disappear, if the court performance is not good, all defenses are a sign of sophistry and cowardice.
Osborne also understands this truth, so he is also very serious about defending next, and does not give the opposing person Kevin Garnett a chance to receive the ball at all, but Kevin Garnett is the body of a power forward, which is not something that Osborne's bean sprouts can block.
It's just that fortunately, Kevin Garnett doesn't have much desire to attack, otherwise with Osborne's defensive level and physical gap, Kevin Garnett would definitely blow Osborne to the ground.
Kevin Garnett ignored Osborne's third-rate defense, and he didn't plan to attack, just passed the ball to O'Neal, Osborne watched Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan, O'Neal was high in the air, and there was no way to steal.
Osborne only then understood what the gap in talent is, which is simply impossible to make up, especially in defense, there is no way to do it, you can only watch, this gap is not something that can be smoothed out with a hard mouth.
And his teammate Ben Wallace has also experienced the talent suppression he has experienced, and O'Neal is not something that can be defended if he wants to, and the only defense that can prevent him from scoring is his own touch, his own state. So no matter how hard Ben Wallace tries, as long as O'Neal is in full shape, no one can stop him at all.
I saw O'Neal directly carrying Ben Wallace to the three-second zone inside, Ben Wallace was pushed forward, and then O'Neal scored the ball with a super powerful small hook, and he didn't even leave Ben Wallace a chance to block.
Osborne saw that O'Neill was still unbeatable, so he gave up his illusions and prepared to fight the most brutal fight, after all, Osborne didn't want his efforts to be wasted for so long.
From time to time, O'Neal uses his height and weight to crush the defenders behind him, and he makes two small moves in a row to bypass Ben Wallace and Magloyer and hit the board directly, if this series of actions were when he was young, it was likely to be a dunk, and now O'Neal's height, weight and age are not suitable for high-intensity confrontation.
At this time, the players of both sides of the East and West intend to let O'Neal and Osborne face off and win the MVP.
Osborne feels that now is the time to witness a miracle, and he is not just attacking on his own now, after all, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett consciously want to contain him, which makes it difficult for him to receive the ball, and it is difficult for him to get a chance to shoot when he receives the ball.
So Osborne often acts as a transmission intermediary, passing the ball to people who can score, so Osborne will guide the ball to Tracy McGrady on the outside for a while, and Maddie will score the ball with a dashing pull-up jumper, at this time the Western All-Stars are all confused, Osborne will pass the ball at this time, so Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant secretly scolded Osborne for being cunning, and Osborne's danger level has risen to a new level in their hearts.
Even so, this game is still a game of two points against three points.
And Osborne thinks so, as long as the Eastern Conference All-Star team wins, then with Osborne's data, he will 100% get the MVP of the All-Star Game.
O'Neal's two points and Osborne's three points will be the key to the outcome of the game, as long as whoever wins this competition will determine the outcome of the game, and will also determine who can become the MVP. (To be continued.) )
