Chapter 094: Battle of the Wizards (5)
Now the situation on the court can be said to be stalemate, not the score but the momentum, as soon as Jordan came on the court, the momentum of the Wizards obviously rose, like drinking a small potion. The fans in the stadium immediately burst into enthusiasm, and people kept shouting slogans such as "MVP" on the sidelines, and the momentum of 20,000 people shouting in unison was shocking.
Only 4 minutes and 47 seconds have passed, and there are still more than seven minutes left in the first quarter, such a situation is really a headache for Liang Xiao, and characters like Jordan will be handed over to Houston, Larry Hughes's shooting is unstable and it is placed farther away, only here in Stackhouse, let Liang Xiao step forward to stop his breakthrough and defend his turnover jumper.
Easley immediately moved forward after receiving the ball, for the opposite Tyronn Lue, Easley's advantage was obvious, this time he chose to shoot by himself, and the score became 13-17, Liang Xiao, who had just come on the court, could feel the arrogance of Starkerhouse, and obviously disdained Liang Xiao, a rookie, and didn't look at it.
"Now Jordan is on the court, Charles, you know if Jordan plays well, this game will not allow the Wizards to win, and, seeing that Chinese guy is not, he is playing again, now we can do that microphone eating plan!" Smith smiled and pointed to Liang Xiao on the court and said to Barkley, now there is no side on the court that Barkley is willing to choose, Jordan is his former opponent, and Liang Xiao is now the object of his gambling.
"I now think that no matter how well Jordan plays, it is not the happiness of the Wizards, what is happy should be Jordan doing his job well as a substitute, not how many points he scores as the main player!" Barkley is still very accurate in looking at the problem, "How many points Jordan gets now may only care about one victory, but it really doesn't work for the Wizards in the future, it's really hard to say!" Also, that Chinese boy, Kenny, do you see, his potential is really huge, I hope he didn't disappoint me this time! Last time, I was a substitute for I don't know how many rounds, but now I was replaced in the first one, which is really rare! ”
"Michael Jordan, oh, this ball is definitely there!" Smith saw Jordan with the ball and immediately quickly plunged inside, like a dagger, Houston couldn't shake Jordan's footsteps, lightning, although it may be a beat slower than ten years ago, but still unstoppable.
Jordan stuck out his tongue, yes, tongue, it meant he was going to score," Houston was thrown away, Thomas and Harrington stepped forward to block, and Jordan held out his hand between the two. "I saw a hand in the air full of arms reaching out to the basket, amazing! Jordan pressed the ball straight into the basket!
The audience cheered vigorously, Jordan is a god, and it is the guarantee of this stadium!
"A trapeze is a trapeze, and now despite his age, he is still full of lethality!"
"No solution, he is no solution, no one can defend, the Knicks are dangerous!"
Houston watched Jordan's dunk and couldn't help but feel like he was back a few years ago, watching Ewing and Jordan on the court, and the passion in their matchup burned.
Liang Xiao looked at Jordan's dunk and kept asking himself, what kind of incomparable enthusiasm is, when can he reap such an honor, as long as he stands on the court, he is as unshakable as Dinghai Shenpin.
The Knicks offense, the response to Jordan's shot is a must, otherwise the Knicks' morale will inevitably decline, and this responsibility falls to Houston, because Houston is the most trusted person on the court now. After Easley had the ball, he went to the front court and gave it to Houston.
Jordan's defense is as good as his offense, it's just that many times his defense is covered up by offense, but no one can ignore the real opponent. As a veteran, Houston knows it well. Houston took the ball and faced Jordan's face, serious and serious, and indispensable to passion, **. Houston's dribble between left and right tried to get out of an offensive gap, and after a few hits it didn't work well, leaning directly on Jordan to the inside.
In the middle of the shot, I saw Houston jump high, but Jordan jumped better at this time, and his palm completely blocked Houston's shooting vision, if this ball was barely shot, it would definitely be thrown, but whether it could hit or not was a matter of two words.
However, Houston still shot, but the ball hit the board directly and did not touch the basket, fortunately, the current Knicks are strong inside, Harrington directly put the frontcourt rebound in his arms, turned around, and delivered the basket successfully. 15-19, the score is four points apart, but in these two rounds, everyone's physical consumption is huge, and the Knicks' offense is close to 24 seconds.
The Wizards continue to score goals from Jordan and Stackhouse on the outside, the Knicks are both inside and outside, and the lethality of the inside line is strong, 3 minutes down, the score on both sides is still 21-25, there are 4 minutes and 09 seconds left in the game, the players on both sides are tired, the main players have basically played for more than seven minutes, and their physical strength has begun to decline. Liang Xiao only scored two points in those few minutes, and as an outside lineman, the Wizards' defense is still very strong.
"There aren't many opportunities for the players on either side right now! Although they all have their own strengths, they seem to be restraining each other, and the score has not risen! Smith said.
Barkley watched the Wizards pause, and took Smith's words, "Jordan is not the best policy, if you go on like this, your physical strength will not be comparable to other young people, and your interior strength will not be advantageous, if you don't change people, when the Knicks' lineup is rotated, they will also suffer!" ”
The lineup has been rotated, and Jordan has consumed a lot of physical strength in these few minutes, and it is impossible not to show it as he gets older. Sprewell came on the court to replace Houston and Anderson replaced Easley, such a lineup is to allow the outside line to come out with more opportunities, let the Knicks' double gun drain Jordan's physical strength, and see how much energy you can spend on it.
The Wizards saw a sharp increase in the pressure on their interior, and they faced serious deficiencies in rebounding and interior defense. Parallel No. 1 Kwame Brown replaces Stackhouse, resting him and strengthening the interior. Although Kwame Brown is a parallel import, others still have height and muscles, which is enough to play a certain role on the field.
Liang Xiao only scored two points on the court, he didn't use the skill of 100 steps through Yang at the beginning, if this skill was used earlier, it would definitely consume a lot of physical strength, plus Jordan and Houston had a tendency to fight against each other, and the inside line also occupied a lot of balls, Liang Xiao didn't get a chance to shoot at all, and lost one of the two balls.
After the rotation on the court, Sprewell did not make a direct breakthrough, knowing that his state today was not good, and they also knew in their hearts that the gap between him and Jordan was definitely not something that could be reluctantly benefited, and it was king to take it slowly. Sprewell gave the ball to Anderson, and now the Knicks don't have a point guard, as long as the ball reaches the frontcourt, they don't need to be organized, and they attack directly.
Anderson broke through, although Liang Xiao usually has a very deep relationship with Anderson, but the tacit understanding between the two on the court is very deep, and when Anderson moves, Liang Xiao also moves. Anderson leaned on the Wizards' small man and kept squeezing in, Tyronn Lue always raised his hand, and the lack of height could only make up for it.
There was suddenly another human wall in front of Anderson, Kwamei Brown, I don't think Kwame Brown is a rough brother, but this horizontal flesh is still very effective, directly stopping Anderson's footsteps. Seeing that he was powerless and divided the ball, when Liang Xiao moved, he had already seen it in his eyes. Liang Xiao had already run out of the empty position to receive the ball, and after the ball arrived, Larry Hughes ran in front of Liang Xiao, and Liang Xiao took advantage of his unstable body to break through two steps to throw him behind him and shoot the basketball.
"I didn't expect the Chinese kid to catch the ball, the timing is very good, and the basket is also very good!" Barkley praised.
"I guess there will be next, if Larry Hughes doesn't pay attention, this will definitely be a breakthrough." Smith thinks about the situation on the court, Sprewell is difficult to get a chance, the interior is less offensive than at the beginning, and Anderson likes to break through the ball.
