Chapter 161: Defensive Loopholes
"Ahh After Zhang Kong landed, he couldn't help but take a few steps back, but he still stood there steadily, his right fist was directly on his chest, and then he yelled at the camera next to him, and heard Zhang Kong's roar, and the audience at home also gave Zhang Kong thunderous applause, although now the league is still investigating the relevant matters about Zhang Kong's black gold, but now Zhang Kong can indeed help the Pacers win the game, it's as simple as that!
Fans are a very easy group to satisfy, what do they want? It's just a team victory, it's as simple as that!
As long as you play well, you can win for the team and win honors, then you are popular with everyone, Zhang Kong's current performance has completely made Indiana fans accept him, the last game against the Heat, the last moment to watch Zhang Kong, this game against the Nuggets, the team has been in trouble from the beginning, and it is Zhang Kong who stands up, but Zhang Kong's own affairs are clear.
With his current skills, shooting and offense can't be uncontrolled, where is his hit rate, there's no way to do it.
His current shooting, layup, is like a, you can't hit too much, just a few times, otherwise your body can't stand it, and if you hit too much, you won't be able to play...... Now Zhang Kong can't just try it at a critical time.
The first two games got more than ten survival points, Zhang Kong kept it, before he was sure to leave enough survival points, he was reluctant to use his life-saving things to change his surname, but if this game was won, Zhang Kong didn't mind adding his offensive surname, compared with the defensive surname, his offensive surname was too scummy, scum to make people vomit blood.
The free throw hit steadily, Zhang Kong breathed a sigh of relief, and his free throw was quite poor, but fortunately, today's first free throw was not ashamed, 17-10, after Zhang Kong scored three points, the score on the court returned to double digits again.
It seems that he was really stimulated by Zhang Kong, TJ Ford, who substituted for Blanton Rush, made a layup in the same position in the next offense, but he didn't look like Zhang Kong, who broke through the two and carried Nene to the layup, but when the Nuggets focused on Zhang Kong, he sneaked up and scored two points, 17-12, and the score was only five points.
And at the critical moment, it still depends on the stars, and when it comes to offense on the Nuggets' side, the first fulcrum is naturally their small forward.
Anthony, James, and Wade can be said to be the representative surnames of the 03 session, but the latter two, one won the Finals MVP within a few years of entering the league, although there were sharks around him at the time, but he was still shining.
And last year, these two, one won the MVP of the regular season, and the other won the scoring champion of the regular season, compared with these two, Anthony's results are really a little embarrassing, if you say that compared with Bosh, he is better than Bosh, after all, he always enters the playoffs.
And Bosh is now staying in the Raptors, and he can't even enter the playoffs, but compared with James and Wade, he always lacks some honors, although he has no honors, but his level is there, and he is the only fulcrum of the offense.
Billups finally had a chance to hit the ground and pass the ball to Anthony after receiving the ball, and after receiving the ball, he glanced at Granger in front of him, and did not hesitate, but got up directly and jumped, he has attacked more than once today.
Granger's two long arms may be a deterrent to others, but not a threat to Anthony.
Steadily shot a three-pointer, the score on the two sides opened up again, and then Zhang Kong tried to shoot once, and after failing to shoot, Zhang Kong was also dumb again, hoping that someone from his teammates could stand up, but no one on the Pacers' side stood up.
But fortunately, under Zhang Kong's strong defense, the Pacers did not let the Nuggets score so easily.
When the first quarter of the game was still 2 minutes and 34 seconds on the line, the Nuggets took a timeout and replaced the bench players, and the Pacers did not dare to change to a bench player like the Nuggets.
But as soon as Watson came on the court, he made a mistake, because of Watson's height, he could only play point guard.
Squeezed Zhang Kong into the second position, but at the same time as the ball handler, Watson took on the scoring work.
But when defending, because he was afraid that his height would become the opponent's breakthrough point, he could only be arranged to defend Billups.
But Billups is so easy to defend, an easy cheat foul, Watson flew up, successfully sent Billups to the free throw line, and the two hit one free throw...... A minute later, Billups came again, and this time he opted for a pull-up jumper, three steps from the rim, and he actually shot back, which was completely bullying Watson.
When Zhang Kong defended him, he had completely stifled his long-range shots, after all, Zhang Kong's best thing was blocking and defending.
So Billups didn't dare to play such a floating shot in front of Zhang Kong, but when Zhang Kong went to defend Afflalo, his side was completely solved, and now on the court, the Pacers have a total of three holes to fill.
The first loophole is the position of small forward, Granger can't defend Anthony, the second is the inside, Murphy's interior defense has almost become a decoration, the third loophole is the point of Earl Watson, this point is the self-owned ATM, as long as there is money in Billups's card, you can infinitely brush up this ATM, Zhang Kong's defense is very strong, and the defensive Afflaro doesn't even dare to squeak, let alone attack, his sense of defense is very powerful, make up the inside line, make up for Anthony.
But Zhang Kong is a human being after all, a human being! It is impossible for him to make up for the entire defensive lineup, watching Zhang Kong exhausted on the court, while the Nuggets are still scoring points, this kind of play is actually a bit despicable and a bit overwhelming.
But it's like a battlefield on both sides, and their only goal is to win, and that's to score!
When Zhang Kong put his energy back to the No. 1 position, Anthony broke through on the No. 3 position, causing a foul on Granger.
By the time Zhang Kong began to pay attention to the No. 3 and No. 1 positions, Marken, who was in the No. 4 position, grabbed an offensive rebound on the inside and made a violent dunk.
And when Zhang Kong made up for all three points, Afflalo, who was in his position, finally found an opportunity and hit a jumper from 22 feet out...... Zhang Kong is now fighting alone, with 28 seconds left in the first quarter and the score on the court is 30-12...... Yes, just now the Nuggets hit a wave of 13-0 offense by the Pacers, and the Pacers have no ability to fight back at all, Zhang Kong tried hard to organize the offense on the premise of doing a good job of his defense, but no matter how he organized, the Pacers just couldn't throw it, and they could dunk dunks, and Zhang Kong really didn't know what to do.
It's like the basketball hoop on the Nuggets' side is covered with a lid, no matter how you shoot, you just don't go in!
With such a 'natural disaster', Jim O'Brien had no choice at all, and the difference in points on the court reached 18 points at this time...... Speaking of the top few points per game in the league, the Nuggets can definitely rank in the top five, but in the face of such a team that concedes a lot of points per game, the Pacers are completely blinded, and Granger and they are all about to lose their fighting spirit at this time.
"Well, seven seconds left!" Zhang Kong chewed his chewing gum and looked at the situation on the field, the sweat on his body had completely wet his jersey, but he seemed to be unconscious at all, still standing on the sidelines, watching the situation on the field.
"Give me the ball!" Zhang Kong looked at Earl Watson, who was already revealing that he wanted to 'rest quickly' next to him, and waved his hand.
Earl Watson looked at Zhang Kong with some surprise, he didn't see anything else in Zhang Kong's face and eyes, except for the desire for victory, not even a trace of helplessness and anger.
"This guy ......" Larry Bird, who was sitting in the team box, looked at Zhang Kong on the court, and he suddenly felt what a wise move he had made when he saw Zhang Kong and decided to sign him! When the whole team fell into the haze, Zhang Kong was like a newborn sunshine, directly penetrating this thick layer of clouds! Now Zhang Kong is starting to save his teammates.
After receiving a pass from Earl Watson, Zhang Kong did not rush over to attack because time was running out.
Instead, he slowly dribbled the ball through the half court, just staring at the chronograph in front of him, and didn't even look at Billups, who was defending him in front of him, because in his opinion, it didn't mean much to look at the opponent...... Because he's going to gamble.
Zhang Kong's three-point skills are 75, in the case of someone defending, the shooting rate is about 25%, wearing a shooting finger guard, the shooting rate is about 32%, Billups defense is good, but the height is not as high as Zhang Kong, in Zhang Kong looks like Billups's defense is the same as other people's defense, there is nothing to say, he bets on this 32% shooting rate.
The data is sometimes dead, but Zhang Kong can bet with him, three goals will only score one goal, that is better than not coming in at all, Zhang Kong knows that this ball is passed to others, and it is blind, so in the end he decided, come by himself!
When there were still two seconds left, Zhang Kong came to the three-point line of the Nuggets, and jumped up directly without looking at Billups in front of him, the soft touch carried Zhang Kong's fighting spirit, and flew to the basket in front of him...... "s......queak" The red headlights have been lit up, and the basketball is slowly flying towards the basket in the air! 'Brush ......' Listening to this light and crisp sound, Zhang Kong's hand was raised high, and the referee's hand was also raised, three points!
