Chapter 82: Dry Pulling

Philadelphia at night, Wachovia Center Arena.

Whether it's football or basketball, the drama of grassroots counterattacks against giants will always make people reverie.

"They're Lakers, they're the defending champions!" Luis's face flushed, he had already scored 17 points in a high-profile matchup, showing his face a lot, and the sight of beating them would make him excited to think about.

And the camera switched to Tang Wenlong's face, his face was very calm, not at all like a 19-year-old rookie.

The players from both sides all stood up and formed a circle outside the bench, with the manager in the middle, drawing tactics on the tactics board and using words to boost the morale of the players.

The three referees walked to the technical table and gathered together, not knowing what to discuss.

The red light turned on, and the scene sounded the sound of "beep~" and the pause time was over.

The referee on duty immediately stopped the discussion and walked onto the field, while he blew the whistle on his chest, urging the players on both sides to hurry up and play.

The Lakers served from the sideline with just 52.4 seconds left.

It was the old fish Derek Fisher who served the ball, and Louis Williams immediately spread his arms and interfered with the jumping there, and the vitality of the young man was on full display.

After a simple off-ball screen, after a slight delay for Iguodala, Bryant pocketed the ball outside the three-point line.

It must be Kobe!

Tang Wenlong's eyes lit up, and his head sounded in his head, Collins's analysis of the Lakers' tactics just now, Kobe, who was a part of the terminator in the triangle offense, and the man who contributed countless kills, will inevitably choose to attack independently at the critical moment!

Sure enough, Kobe Bryant asked for a double-block tactic, and Pau Gasol and Odom came out, and the combined block and pick-and-roll was like a continuous wall.

Tang Wenlong saw that Iguodala was out of position, so he decisively let go of Artest and ran to wrap Kobe.

On the field, Kobe Bryant, who cut around 45 degrees and rushed to the free throw line, once again faced Tang Wenlong.

When the enemy meets, he is very red-eyed

When Kobe Bryant saw this guy running over again, he was really angry, and when he saw that hateful face, he had 10,000 impulses to bukkake hard!

It took a long time, but in fact, it was an instant, after Kobe Bryant stopped urgently, he jumped directly and pulled out!

When he shoots normally, he jumps at an amazing height, relying on the flexibility of his waist and abdomen, holding the ball above his head with both hands, and stretching his feet off the ground to balance his body.

If Kobe Bryant shoots directly without making adjustments, no matter how powerful Tang Wenlong's bounce is, he will have no chance to block.

Basketball immediately rose to its highest point and began to show a downward trend.

"Don't go in, don't go in" head coach Collins said on the bench, if the 76ers can beat the Lakers, it will be a huge encouragement for the whole team.

However, God failed to hear his prayers, and the basketball passed through the net.

92 to 90, the crucial two points.

Kobe Bryant yelled, and when he returned to defense, he pulled the placket on his chest hard, and was stuck to Iguodala for a whole time, and finally let out a bad breath.

Tang Wenlong stood in place with his hips crossed, somewhat annoyed.

"It's okay, the game isn't over yet, we'll give them one back!" Iguodala passed by Tang Wenlong and comforted him softly.

Tang Wenlong shrugged his shoulders and said that he was OK.

Collins wanted to call another pause, his gaze suddenly swept to the face of the familiar and unfamiliar old man with glasses opposite, and at this moment, Phil Jackson also raised his gaze, he looked at Doug Collins, and inexplicably showed a mysterious smile.

Collins chuckled inwardly, but endured it stubbornly, without calling a timeout.

Although it is just an ordinary regular season, when more than 20 years of grievances are entangled, it is still given a different color. Before the game, some media picked up the story between Doug Collins and Phil Jackson, when Doug Collins coached the Flyers with the Chicago Bulls, and Phil Jackson was just an assistant coach for him, but the latter won countless merits, and even created a "Zen master" such a great name, and the former, so far is just a very ordinary head coach in the NBA.

On the field, seeing that the coach did not let the timeout, Iguodala took his own initiative to direct his teammates to run.

With only 40 seconds left, the situation on the court is slightly unfavorable for the 76ers.

Watching Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith shouting in the studio, Barkley said he had an inexplicable feeling that it was going to be an overtime game.

The ball was in Iguodala's hands, Tang Wenlong actually had a very itchy hand, and when he was at Syracuse University, the last attack was bound to be handed over to him.

But this is the NBA, he is a rookie, even if his wings are a little hard, he doesn't dare to flap his wings too ostentatiously.

In fact, Tang Wenlong didn't know that if he asked for the ball at this time, Iguodala would definitely pass the ball to him. Because Iguodala is a true team-oriented player, he has the top physical qualities in the NBA, but he always likes to do some blue-collar work, and when he was at the University of Arizona, his coach described Iguodala as "not liking to shoot and pay special attention to the team".

As soon as the humility in his bones overflowed, he missed a good time to ask for the ball.

Iguodala saw that Tang Wenlong didn't have a particularly good chance, so he stretched out his hand and began to choose to fight by himself.

Artest is five fouls, but at this last moment, he can't care about a few fouls on his body, and the action of the two people is very big when they fight, and the referee pretends not to see it, and at the last moment of the game, it has always been the golden rule of NBA referees to hand over the game to the players themselves.

The embarrassment is that Iguodala does not have absolute speed, and he can't completely push Artest in terms of strength, and after these few seconds of entanglement, he still can't get the space to shoot.

At this time, Thaddeus Young arrived to clear the ball, and Iguodala hit the ball to Thaddeus Young.

With 30 seconds left in the game, there is still half of the time left in this wave of attack.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Tang Wenlong finally couldn't stand it anymore, and after Thaddeus Young got the ball, he saw Tang Wenlong coming around the three-point line.

"Smack!" Tang Wenlong put the ball together with both hands and fixed it in place, and Kobe Bryant just took a defensive posture.

"Come on, rookie. Like I shot you just now, you shoot me too! Kobe Bryant suddenly opened his mouth, and when he opened his mouth, it was trash talk with amazing lethality.

Tang Wenlong raised his eyebrows, dribbled and swayed, but did not answer.

He didn't expect it to be so simple to shake off Kobe Bryant, grab the ball and go around his back to complete a back dribble, this time the amplitude was very large, and the whole person deflected to the left, forming a group of feints with the step just to the right.

The backdribble is the second-most common way to pass in the NBA, and the first is to change direction in front of the body.

Tang Wenlong's arms are very long, and he has a good sense of the ball, and after dribbling the ball behind his back, he kept hitting a back dribble in the opposite direction, and he actually completed two back dribbles in the virtual and real. After the basketball bounced, it returned to Tang Wenlong's right hand, at this time, Tang Wenlong didn't care whether he shook Kobe Bryant or not, pulled his wrist back and forth, and finally completed a change in front of his body, and began to bulge his head to the right side!

This electric step is too fast, and it is a load on the body and knees.

Kobe Bryant didn't expect this kid to have so many tricks, and between the shaking of his shoulders, it was also amazingly confusing, thanks to his rich experience, he was not shaken his center of gravity.

Tang Wenlong stopped a step and pulled out a jumper.

This action is exactly the same as Kobe Bryant's appearance of directly pulling up his jump shot in the face of him just now, the subtlety, that is, Tang Wenlong's arm to shoot is stretched higher, and his legs are not raised.

The audience's breath was held, and their eyes continued to fly with the basketball that drew the trajectory from Tang Wenlong's fingertips, and then looked at the basketball and plunged into the hoop and turned up a circle of net flowers!

"Wow wow wow wow oh!" Barkley exclaimed, "Our magical Chinese Tang hit a response shot, what a beautiful pass, what a beautiful shot!" ”

Tied at 92 with exactly 24 seconds left, the Lakers asked for a final timeout.

Collins clenched his fists and shouted, the moment Tang Wenlong pulled out his jump shot just now, his heart really seemed to stop beating. Iguodala, Luis and the others surrounded Tang Wenlong and reached out to touch his hair one by one.

"You're doing so well!" After leaving the game, Collins took the initiative to reach out and high-five Tang Wenlong in celebration.

The fans cheered and cheered endlessly, and even the timeout could not stop the excitement that was ignited in their hearts.

The pressure returned to the Lakers, and Bryant returned to the bench with a blank face and sat down.

A cold breath came out of Kobe's body, and the Lakers looked at each other, at this time, Pau Gasol, who was the second leader, didn't dare to speak, looking at his nose and nose, looking at his mouth and heart, looking like he was a Zen master

The two sides returned to the field, and the atmosphere was solemn to the extreme.

The Lakers drove the ball to the sideline, Odom served, and the 76ers' bench was right behind Odom, with Nocioni and the other 76ers players taking the lead in interfering behind.

Odom hits the ground and passes, Fisher catches the ball, and the timer starts to move!

It's still a familiar routine, Gasol received the ball in the high post, Kobe and Artest immediately bypassed the running positions on both sides, and then Odom, who came in from out of bounds, just gave Kobe Bryant a cover without the ball, and Kobe Bryant's weak-side catch turned out to form a one-on-one heads-up with Thaddeus Young.

"Bag Clip!" Tang Wenlong's eyes flashed, and he quietly gathered around again.

Kobe glanced at the corner of his eye, and his teeth itched with hatred, what was going on with this little rookie in the last few minutes, how could he have a feeling of haunting.

At this moment, a shocking change occurred!
