Chapter 59: Overtaking
"Yay!" When McDaniels threw in the three-pointer, Negro could no longer hold back his emotions, and stood up from his seat with his arms raised high, but this sudden movement made his feet slip, and he lost his center of gravity and fell heavily on the seat, and suddenly let out a heart-rending wail.
"Hey! What did you do! The fans next to him let out a grumbling cry of dissatisfaction.
"Young man to speak politely," just as Negro was facing the angry eyebrows of the Hawks fans next to him, and the voice behind him saved him in time, "Everyone is here to watch the game, it's normal to not be able to control your emotions, if you want to do something to him, then I don't mind doing something to you." ”
was glared at by the middle-aged uncle, and the young Eagles fan immediately swallowed the swear words that were about to be spoken.
"Boy, I don't see that you are still a slow heater, but it is just a goal, although I am also very unhappy with this ball, but I still have to believe that we must win in the end."
"That's right, that's right." Negro hurriedly agreed, his face full of smiles, his mood was almost refreshing now, but this sentence must not be spoken.
The middle-aged uncle patted Negro's shoulder comfortingly, this time Negro's body didn't feel electrified, but couldn't help but give birth to a trace of warm emotions, this uncle looks so fierce, in fact, he is quite good, but unfortunately we are not supporting a team.
After the game, why don't you find a chance to tell him the truth and then apologize? Thinking of the middle-aged uncle's fat face covered with stubble and arms as thick as cement pipes, Negro finally made a decision.
You can't even tell him about death!
"Coach, Ding's attack just now doesn't seem like an accident." Budenholzer had just asked for a timeout, and Jeff Teague couldn't wait to say what he had to say.
"You found out too?" Ding Wei's performance in this offense could not hide the Eagles coach's insight, but he couldn't think of a good solution for a while, so he had to throw the problem back into the hands of Jeff Teague first to buy himself a little more time to think. For the coach of the Spurs, the most important thing is the prestige of the team, all factors that damage the prestige of the head coach will be nipped in the bud by them as much as possible, especially such mistakes on the spot are never allowed to happen to them, so he must think about it before he can say it.
"Yes, in 24 seconds he organised three attacks, each of which was a threat to us, and of course, because they were definitely a little rusty with their own combinations, so it only ended up being one time." As the Hawks' main point guard, Jeff Teague is the kind of player who is good at finding opportunities in the weak points of the opponent's defense, and Ding Wei used the skills he is proud of in these three offenses, which makes him feel a lot of pressure.
"You're right, but there's a small detail I still have to correct you, he can only fight once of these three attacks, and if he succeeds the first time, then the next two can't exist, do you know what I'm trying to say to you?" Worthy of being a fellow brother, Budenholzer also has the same cunning as Coach Brett Brown when it comes to tricky problems.
"Well, I don't know." Jeff Teague shook his head.
"If we take a one-third probability of their attack succeeding, we will still have a relatively large chance of winning, so we don't need to contain all their attacks, but only need to limit their attacks to such a probability." In just a minute or two, Budenholzer was able to clear his mind, and the opponent was not targeting a single part of his tactical system, but the tactical system itself. It's impossible to reinvent the wheel in a game, and even if you win the game, it will ruin the self-confidence that the team has built up through a winning streak, and the winning team does not need to change, which is an unbreakable truth in the NBA.
"I think I get it." Sometimes, it's best not to deal with it, and it's better to perfect every detail of yourself as much as possible than to mess with yourself because of your opponent's style change. Jeff Teague looked at the confident look of the head coach, and couldn't help but feel ashamed of his worries, this may be the difference between the general and the coach, I still have a lot to learn.
Budenholzer used the last bit of time to reiterate the team's tactical requirements, in fact, the purpose of this time-out is not to set up targeted tactics, but to allow the players to calm down from the psychological shock brought to them by the opponent as soon as possible, so that they can face the next situation with 100% condition, which is the best adjustment for the current situation.
Let's hope it's all just an accident, watching the players who have regained their confidence smile on the court, Budenholzer found that his back was soaked, although he has played Brett Brown quite a few times so far, and most of them ended in his victory, but he has a hunch that he may not be able to get out of this game.
"Brett, is this the 'surprise' you gave me?" Looking at Brett Brown, who was sitting in the 76ers coach's box, Budenholzer's face was filled with a helpless smile. As the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, and on the NBA court, maybe in the next second, the balance of victory and defeat will be reversed.
"The Eagles don't look too affected." Esker shook his head lightly as he watched the Hawks still play vigorously on offense, and at the moment when the 76ers just scored the whistle, he clearly felt the panic and helplessness on the faces of the Hawks players as if they had seen some incredible sight, and after a short timeout, Budenholzer quickly got the team back on track.
"Don't underestimate my little brother's ability to adjust," Breitt Brown smiled lightly, he didn't expect to pull the game back with this ball, this is just an opportunity for the 76ers to find themselves again, "You can't underestimate this team's ability to adjust, in fact, the latter is more important." ”
Asker bowed slightly, the coach's role to the team is still reflected off the court most of the time, how much the same tactics can play, ultimately depends on the players on both sides of the court, compared to the 76ers, the Hawks' players on the court appear to be more mature and stable, maybe less talent and blood, but more talented than them, more enthusiastic than them, have become their 18-game winning streak without exception.
'Don't underestimate our lads, they haven't been able to fully adjust and if we can do that in this game then I have more confidence in the future of this team. So, let's watch the game seriously. Brett-Brown's eyes were full of excitement, as if he saw his carefully carved artwork blooming in the world's most dazzling brilliance on the world's highest stand, and perhaps tonight would be the first step in their cocoon into a butterfly.
"Robert, pull to the left! Hollis is a little faster! Northens and Henry switch places! ”
The 76ers who returned to the court changed their previous tactics of shooting and birding, and Brett Brown simply replaced all the lineups with Ding Wei's good friends, and let them unconditionally obey Ding Wei's instructions on the court, which also made the 76ers' offense more fluid, more layered, and more threatening. While the Eagles were able to use their experience and teamwork to score back-to-back points on the offensive end, the gap was still closing at a pace that everyone could feel.
Nolens Noll fanned Millsap's shot out of mid-air, and the misaligned offense between the latter and Al Horford near the free-throw line frustrated him was a deflated shot, and he finally found an opportunity to vent hard.
The basketball that was slapped by Knoll flew to the vicinity of the center circle, Ding Wei instantly judged the position of the ball as if he had a long eye on the back of his head, turned around without any delay, and copied the ball in his hand, and there was no Hawks defender around him, which was an excellent opportunity for fast break!
The fans in the stadium suddenly let out a wave of boos comparable to the "vuvuzula" in the World Cup in South Africa, if this goal is scored, the 76ers will have the first lead of the game, which they absolutely do not want to see!
Ding Wei ran wildly with the ball to the front court, while observing the Hawks' defense with his eagle eye, behind him, Jeff Teague had quickly caught up, he did not grasp the speed of the competition to completely outperform this speed point guard who was ten centimeters shorter than him, so he faced the basket and suddenly made a sudden stop to close the ball at his waist.
"Want to shoot threes?! We will not let you succeed! With Ding Wei's emergency stop, Jeff Teague almost came to him at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and jumped high in the air with both feet, this ball must be covered!
"Huh." In response to him, Ding Wei laughed a little playfully.
Jeff Teague, who was flying in the air, suddenly found that the basketball that had almost been out of Ding's fingertips changed its trajectory in an instant, and flew to the basket like a cannonball from between his outstretched arms, where Robert Covington was striding towards the basket, and behind him was Kyle Cover, these two people's height, weight and explosiveness can be said to be one day and one place, as long as the ball does not go out of bounds, Korver can't stop Covington's layup at all!
The ball did not go out of bounds, but hit the basket heavily and bounced high, and Covington, who was jumping with the momentum, stretched out his green and exposed hands and pressed the ball into the basket fiercely, and with the huge bang of the basketball and the basket, the boos of the home team fans also stopped abruptly as if they were choked by the neck!
The ball is in!
After being pressed for nearly two quarters, the 76ers finally completed the comeback for the first time!
