Chapter Twenty-Six: The Gamble with Anthony

JR rushed back to the front court with the ball, wanting to attack quickly, but no matter how fast he ran, the speed of moving with the ball was not as fast as Chu Yi's off-ball return defense. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Within JR's three-point line, Chu Yi had already completed the defense, lying in front of JR, trying to stop his fast break, even if he had a foul, he couldn't let the Nuggets get back on the ground.

Potential, this thing is a very mysterious thing, it can be said that the two sides of the confrontation, whoever controls the momentum, who controls the rhythm of the game. Moreover, once the momentum is lost, it is difficult to recover it in a short period of time.

After making up his mind, Chu Yi's eyes when he looked at JR also became vicious, since he wanted to foul, he had to commit it thoroughly, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, if he hesitated, he would send 2+1 to the other side.

The moment JR jumped up, Chu Yi hugged JR and wanted to pull him down, and, with the intention of interrupting JR, Chu Yi's hand was very heavy, almost using all his strength. So much so that it hit JR's arm with a crisp "pop" sound, which was heard by the other players sitting on the bench.

According to common sense, it is impossible for JR, who is not a superstar, to score the ball if he is fouled to this extent, but JR is now having a nervous attack, which cannot be described by common sense, and the state is hot.

Then the impact of the speed, JR forcibly broke free of Chu Yi in the air, rotated 360°, turned his back to Chu Yi, and forcibly shot the basketball out of his hand.

The basketball just spins in the air, spins, grabs the rebounds and turns into the nets, andone! (2+1) Incredible andone!

If it weren't for New Orleans Stadium, but at the Pepsi Center, this incredible goal would have detonated the crowd and greeted JR with an overwhelming cheer and applause.

But now, at New Orleans Stadium, JR is greeted only by a tidal wave of boos expressing disdain for JR. However, if you enter, you will enter, and luck is also part of strength.

Chu Yi already understood this truth when he was a child, he didn't want to make excuses for himself, if he didn't prevent it, he didn't prevent it, there was nothing to say, this was his problem.

A burst of loss hit Chu Yi's heart, there were enough people who were already behind, and they gave the opponent a 2+1 chance, which is really ...... Stupid enough, can't even commit fouls.

"Don't blame yourself, you defended this ball very well, it was my carelessness that made the Nuggets play this fast break." Paul retreated to the front court, noticed Chu Yi's frustration, showed the boss's demeanor, and took the initiative to take the pot.

Chu Yi tried to put on a smiling face, wanting to reassure Paul that he was fine, but no matter what, Chu Yi's smile looked bitter, and he couldn't see any happiness.

sighed slightly, Paul is also a headache, the Hornets are also in this lineup, he also has a headache, there is one less inside gate, the Hornets' defense is very problematic, although Chu Yi and Hassan have a tendency to become the firepower point and the inside gate, however, the growth of rookies takes time and space.

He doesn't want plants, he doesn't want animals, he grows slowly, he can blast drugs, he can give injections to help him grow, people can't do this, they have to take it one step at a time.

The current lineup of the Hornets, old and young, can play completely, and only Paul and West are at the peak of their combat power, so in Paul's heart, he has no expectations for the current game, and only hopes that he will not lose too badly.

As for the revenge of 58, there will be opportunities in the future, and it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

……

"Oh, JR's conversion offense is simply a stroke of genius, first chasing the big hat Paul, or a top hat, and then, a 360° turn layup, hitting Chu Yi a 2+1, it's just perfect!"

When Kenny Smith of TNT Studio played a 2+1 in JR, the whole person jumped up excitedly, looking at Chu Yi's expression of wanting to stop but helpless, JR felt like eating popsicles on dog days, from head to face.

In addition, Barkley whispered in his ear for a long time, he could only be silent, and now, he finally has a chance to fight back, so why not seize the opportunity to get back on the field?

"It's just a balloon, what's worth bragging about, Jordan's three points back then were notoriously poor, didn't there also be a three-point kill?" Barkley is on Chu Yi's side, and JR is a ball that everyone knows that luck is the majority, so he naturally dismisses Smith's statement.

"Isn't luck part of strength? Doesn't a balloon count as a score? Smith, Barkley's old enemy, also did not let up and argued with reason.

"So since it's a balloon, what is there to brag about? It's just an ethereal thing. "Don't look at Barkley's stupidity, in fact, he is still very smart, and he unknowingly dug a hole for Smith.

"......" Smith was blocked by Barkley's words, and couldn't find the words to refute Barkley for a while, so he could only wait for the next opportunity, one was luck, it couldn't be luck, if JR could continue this brave state, it would be time to see what Barkley had to say.

……

Now at the free throw line, JR took a deep breath, steadily scored the ball, and hit a three-point success, 47:30, the Hornets trailed by 17 points, and there were nearly 3 minutes left in the second quarter.

Strictly speaking, after trailing by 17 points in the second quarter, the point difference cannot be said to be huge, huge to the point of losing suspense, but the key problem is that now the Nuggets are up again, Anthony has calmed down, there is no cancer, and JR has also stepped up and bombarded the Hornets wildly.

If this situation is not improved, the score difference will quickly become so big that the suspense is lost.

Weak scoring and ineffective defense are the biggest problems that the Hornets need to solve right now.

Paul, as the leader of the team, had to step up and solve the situation that the team is currently in when the team needed him the most.

He desperately attacked the Nuggets' interior line, causing damage to its interior line, and the aging Billups couldn't keep up with Paul's devilish pace, so big players such as Nene on the Nuggets' interior line had to pull out a help defense Paul, which gave West and Hassan a chance.

No matter who pulls it out, West and Hassan will inevitably have no one to let go, and with the top point guard level in the Paul league, all West and Hassan have to do is just put the basketball in front of an empty basket.

And if the Nuggets' interior line, such as Nene and the like, doesn't pull out to defend Paul, Paul only needs to gently pick his hand to get the ball into the basket.

At the beginning, the score difference was still very open, because JR's hand was still so hot, the wasp scored a 2 points, JR was able to return a 3 points, and for a while, the score difference even widened.

At one point, it reached 22 points, but it wasn't until three minutes into the third quarter that JR's hot hand finally had the intention of cooling down, and it was no longer so accurate.

The Hornets have just started their long road of chasing points, and there is a tendency to narrow the score.

Moreover, during the long timeout at halftime, the head coach seriously explained Chu Yi, let him slowly get rid of the depression of being beaten by JR into 2+1, and let him work hard to find his state.

This also made Chu Yi work hard to run in the third quarter not long after the start of the third quarter, creating opportunities for himself, and coldly hit a 3-pointer to help the team narrow the score again.

"Would you love to win this game? However, I really want to win today, so I won't give you a chance. Anthony saw that Chu Yi had a tendency to be powerful again, and he also started his own small calculations, thinking about how to restrict Chu Yi.

In his opinion, it is a good choice to let Chu Yi fall into singles, because if Chu Yi is allowed to run endlessly, his physical strength will not be able to support him to keep up with Chu Yi at a high speed.

Well, although Anthony didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that Chu Yi could really run, and with his defensive ability, letting Chu Yi fall into singles was the best restriction for him.

"Next time, you don't want to score on my head." In order to provoke Chu Yi, Anthony's attitude between words is also very bad, which makes people want to beat him when they hear it.

"Well, mentally retarded." Chu Yi didn't trust Maddie's ability, but even if Maddie was at the peak, he didn't dare to guarantee that in the face of a superstar like Anthony's 100% hit rate, Chu Yi would naturally not be stupid enough to be serious with him.

"Hood King, are you talking about yourself again? Do you want me to treat you to Sichuan specialty - hot pot? "Slapping people in the face, scolding people and exposing shortcomings, speaking of which, Chu Yi still has the potential to be a poisonous man.

Anthony naturally can't be the league's block king, the reason why he says this is because he is the player who has been capped the most per game in the league, which poked Anthony's sore foot and made him angry.

"Then I'll make a bet on who will invite whom to eat hot pot first." Anthony's teeth were already creaking with intense rage.

"Just bet on it, whoever loses will tell the media at the press conference that I am a loser, I am not as good as the other party." Chu Yi felt that gambling money was too cheesy, and it was more important to fight for a breath.

"Okay, just do as you say." Maybe it was because he was carried away by anger again, or maybe it was because of his confidence in his own strength, Anthony didn't realize that he had something to lose by this bet, nodded and took it.
