Chapter 175: Steal
Because it was the last game of 2011, it was actually New Year's Day in China, which was on the other side of the ocean.
Therefore, the 76ers vs. the Warriors game, there are still a lot of viewers, Tang Wenlong's fan base is now extremely large, although there are also people who hack him, but they are like waves in the sea, they will be destroyed at any time, and they can't turn over any tricks.
The imperial court station is not stupid, almost every broadcast of 76 people, just like the broadcast of rockets back then.
So at half past ten in the morning of capital time, the 76ers' away game against the Golden State Warriors officially began, and after a series of preparatory activities, the two sides jumped the ball.
The Warrior Biedrins jumped to win, and Gasol knew that he must not be able to jump as soon as he saw that his opponent was thinner than him.
The basketball flew into Curry's hands, everyone rushed to the frontcourt, and the Warriors began the first wave of offense.
"Stephen's shooting is very good, but he's so poor at the physical level right now that I have a feeling that our little cannon is going to knock him apart." Tang Wenlong and Wesley Johnson said with a smile.
Wesley Johnson responded, "Stephen Curry is the best shooter I've ever seen, you know, he's even shorter than Ray Allen. ”
At this point, Curry, who was being talked about, raised his arms and began to organize the offense.
The Warriors didn't have much of a routine, and after a few runs, Curry played a block with Biedrins, and then was delayed and distributed to rookie Thompson, who tried a three-pointer when he saw that Iguodala was not tight.
Iguodala quickly followed, jumping up and blocking the defense, Thompson jumped not high from the ground when he jumped, but the speed of the shot was relatively fast, Iguodala interfered like this, he panicked. The arc of the shot was immediately subconsciously raised.
"Rebound!" Iguodala shouted back, and he knew it couldn't go in.
But the players on the inside line were all huddled together, and the basketball looked very positive, but it didn't want to be an air balloon, and flew straight out of the bottom line.
"Three don't stick." Tang Wenlong laughed, and then remembered that this didn't seem to be very moral. Turning around, he was about to go down with a serious face.
Wesley Johnson had a black line on his face and followed Tang Wenlong closely.
The 76ers attacked, Tang Wenlong saw his old friend and intended to show off in front of him, so when he fell off the ground, he reached out and asked Lowry for the ball, Lowry passed the ball to Tang Wenlong with both hands, Tang Wenlong didn't say a word after receiving the ball, he made a pass feint by the way, and then broke through in the opposite direction.
Burst out in an instant. Lightning-fast!
Wesley Johnson reached out to block, and the other hand secretly tugged Tang Wenlong's clothes where the referee couldn't see, Tang Wenlong was already parallel to Wesley Johnson with one step of dribbling, and one more step was more than half a body, and the two bodies confronted each other at the same time.
Wesley Johnson snorted, and his chest hurt when he was hit by Tang Wenlong.
Tang Wenlong followed the rebounding force, moved his wrist to dribble, and the whole person rushed out of half of his body.
This time. Wesley Johnson didn't dare to pull his clothes anymore, and the referee's angle was about to see the small movement here. He didn't want to get a foul so early, so he had to let go of his palm.
Tang Wenlong easily killed in, and rushed to the basket with a long drive.
Beedrins jumped up one step ahead, and the inside line in the league will be scared of these spring people who can fly and buckle, if a guy like Tang Wenlong jumps first, maybe something big will happen.
So Tang Wenlong's head covered the sky and the sun. He jumped up with the ball, leaned sideways and made a pull-up motion, dodging the block from Viedrins and making a low-handed layup.
Hit. 2 to 0.
Good ball, there are a lot of Chinese fans in the Oracle Arena. As soon as he saw that Tang Wenlong had scored, he cheered happily and sent colorful sticks waving all over the sky, making it look like a concert.
Last season, the 76ers and the Warriors belonged to a fast-paced team, but this season, the pace of the Warriors is still fast, but the 76ers are obviously slowing down, but the fast-paced factor that is retained in their bones is still there, and the rhythm is significantly faster in the occasional counterattack frenzy.
The two teams met today, but they didn't play a mutual attack at the beginning.
Tang Wenlong has a strong desire on the offensive end, and in the first three minutes of the opening game, he has made 3 shots, but except for that low-handed layup, he failed to shoot the two mid-range shots on the outside.
With seven minutes left in the first quarter, it was time for the official mandatory timeout, at which point the Warriors still led by three points at 8-5.
After the timeout, the Warriors played very resolutely, Wesley Johnson took advantage of Tang Wenlong's wrap around Curry, ambushed in the bottom corner, Curry gave him the ball, Tang Wenlong pounced, and hit a three-pointer on Tang Wenlong's head.
This kid is so happy, this feeling of scoring in front of a good brother is very different.
Tang Wenlong began to get serious, and in the next wave of offense, he forced Wesley to cause the latter's foul. After serving the ball on the sideline, he gave him the bottom corner, he turned around and made a breakthrough, rushed to the basket and flew up in one step, raised a fire-like dunk, and hit it in the unguarded.
Subsequently, Curry made a mistake in passing, and Tang Wenlong made a direct steal.
He was originally going to attack quickly, but the Warriors' defensive awareness and position were very good, and he immediately withdrew to the half court as soon as he stealed, and there was no good chance, so he waited for Lowry to come over and organize.
In the first quarter, before entering the second forced timeout, Tang Wenlong cut off the rookie Thompson's dribble again, although the rookie has superb shooting skills, but the dribble is like a high school student, and when he forced Tang Wenlong to force Tang Wenlong without admitting defeat, he was cut off by Tang Wenlong's face-to-face defense, and there was no chance to come back.
Thompson frustrated back to the defense, Tang Wenlong controlled the ball with a crotch, and then slowly advanced through the half.
"Rookie, welcome to the NBA."
Tang Wenlong said a trash word to the rookie very pretendly, turned around and dribbled the ball, and suddenly pulled it up, and when he jumped up, it was like a slam dunk instead of a shot, and his arms were raised high, and it was impossible to cover it.
Thompson couldn't react and watched Tang Wenlong shoot, and then the ball was flicked out and spun into the basket.
"Fack!" Thompson scolded and sulked angrily.
The goal gave the 76ers a one-point lead over the Warriors 19-18, and with 2:38 left in the game, the referees announced a second forced timeout, which was a long timeout for the home and away teams.
Collins thought about it, and still left Tang Wenlong on the court to play the last bit of the first quarter, but he didn't think about how much impact his decision flashed in his mind would have!
After the timeout, the Warriors' first offense, Brandon Rush made a pass error and was stealed by Tang Wenlong.
1:03 David Li Qiang lost control of the basketball under the physical confrontation of Gasol, and the basketball rolled on the floor and was copied by the fast-eyed Tang Wenlong.
Tang Wenlong gave Louis Williams a layup in the front court and was covered, and when the Warriors made a long pass back, it was cut off by Tang Wenlong, who jumped high!
In less than two minutes, Tang Wenlong scored 3 steals!
Tang Wenlong steadily organized the last attack, walked the bottom line after blocking and dismantling Speights, faced the warrior David Lee, withdrew a jumper, and hit!
In the first quarter, Tang Wenlong contributed 8 points and 5 steals, and the steal data broke his personal single-quarter record! (To be continued.) )
