Chapter 026: Don't Give You a Chance
Chapter 026 doesn't give you a chance
"Oh, as I said, Easley must have a hard time facing Peyton." The narrator kept laughing.
As a point guard, he knew he didn't have much chance of winning against Gary Payton, after all, he was the one who became the best defensive player with the point guard, and he was also a regular on the All-Defensive Team.
Obviously Houston has a much better advantage against Brent Barry, and while both men are known for their mid-range shots, Houston has far more scoring means than Brent Barry.
As soon as Houston got the ball, the opponent clung to it, because Brent Barry also knew that Houston was a very good projection, and if he put it too far, it would definitely be a meat bun and a dog that would never return.
Thomas's strong defensive ability was a low-lying solution, and Harrington, a center who also has long-range shooting ability, pulled the opposing center out because he trusted Mars's ability. Houston saw Harrington walk out of the paint area, the two kept getting closer, Brent Barry turned his back to the rebound and didn't see Harrington walk out, between the dislocations, Houston jumped, textbook shot, the ball grazed the net, and the two points were effective.
Liang Xiao and the players on the bench, waving towels, admired Houston's steady play.
Then the Knicks' two-gun rotation came into play, Houston's mid-range shot and three-point shot, and Sprewell's breakaway and fast break. The SuperSonics also showed no weakness, Gary Payton made a burst shot, and Lewis's weird run. The two sides are uncompromising, as if they have an inexhaustible amount of energy before the start of the new season.
Halfway through the first quarter, the Knicks trailed by 3 points at 19-22, and the SuperSonics scored far more points than the Knicks, but the Knicks' strong defense did not let the opponent pick up much cheap.
Liang Xiao looked at Sprewell on the court, his exaggerated dribbling skills, his feet swayed so much, the league estimated that he couldn't find two people, and this trick was very effective, making the opponent's defense very difficult when he broke through.
I sigh that there are really a lot of things to learn here, not only Sprewell's dribbling, but also Lewis's off-ball movement, Payton's special defense, are all other people's cheats. The stones of its mountains can attack jade, and it will be very beneficial to learn one and a half moves in the future. Liang Xiao, who was in a trance, suddenly heard Van Gundy calling his name.
"Oh, head, are you calling me?" Liang, who reacted, looked at Van Gundy with a smile.
"Could it be that there is another Liang Xiao here?" Van Gundy looked at Liang Xiao and thought to himself, "This kid can't be nervous, right?" ”
"There's four minutes left, and you and Anderson go up and replace Houston and Sprewell and give them a break. People who are optimistic about themselves, don't stare at the ball, you know? Van Gundy knows that Liang Xiao is a newcomer, and the NBA may lose all because of one person's mistakes.
"Understood." Liang Xiao ripped off his coat and walked to the technical desk to report, waiting for the dead ball. Looking at the field, I couldn't help but feel excited, are you really going to play?
Seeing Thomas' defense being blown and supersonic free throws, Liang Xiao took a deep breath and walked onto the court.
"Hey, take it easy, all you have in your eyes is the basket!" Seeing that Liang Xiao was a little cramped, Sprewell said to him with a smile.
He gave Sprewell a smile in return, and put his mind at ease, yes, there is only a basket in his eyes, and thinking too much is just a burden.
Seeing the opponent's two free throws, Liang Xiao immediately went to the front court to prepare for the battle.
Easley continued to push at a blistering pace, and no one was going to press or use pressing tactics in the first quarter.
The main forces of the supersonic are still on the court, Thomas is still in the low post, and waiting for the opportunity to reach for the ball, Harrington is constantly running around the paint area, giving up all the way to Thomas so that he can not only wait for the opportunity to catch the ball in the shot, but also allow Thomas to have more space in the low post to eat the opponent. Anderson has a good ability to break through the ball, and his three-point shooting is also a must-kill skill, so he didn't go too much into the three-point range. Liang Xiao is also constantly running at the three-point line, because he knows that as a rookie, it is impossible to wait for the ball, because others will not believe you, after all, you are not the first brother of the team.
Brent Barry, who was defending Liang Xiao, thought in his heart that this kid can really run, so you can't take a break.
The commentator behind the technical desk couldn't help but be a little sarcastic when he saw Liang Xiao. "See, that yellow-skinned guard, according to the Knicks, is a player from China, I generally don't believe that yellow people will play any basketball, they are too thin, it is estimated that they will faint on the court after hitting it." It's a pity that the NBA explicitly forbids commentary that is too discriminatory, otherwise there will be more vicious words coming out of the white man's mouth.
"Oh, I heard that Chinese basketball has also been developing continuously in recent years, such as China's Yao, who is a typical representative, and the Chinese players who joined Mavericks the year before last, all of which show that they are connecting with the world."
Easley didn't see much of a breakaway and a shooting opportunity, so he had to get the ball into Anderson's hands.
Anderson, who was facing Rashad Lewis, seemed confident that he could take his opponent and accelerated towards the paint after receiving the ball. Lewis, of course, was not an easy master, and one step at a time, like a nailed anchor, stood in front of Anderson.
I saw that there was no room for breakthroughs, and there was no chance to shoot, but Anderson would not forget his ball-sharing skills, constantly observing his teammates on the field between breakthroughs, and his broad vision allowed him to take all the places into his sight like a radar.
There were still two steps away from the basket, and Anderson crossed the ball, and the line became hollow, and the ball flew to the bottom corner of the three-point line where Liang Xiao was standing. Liang Xiao kept running without the ball, and finally it worked, and Brent Barry began to be unable to keep up with him, after all, he was 31 years old, and Liang Xiao was only nineteen years old.
"Oh, Barry didn't keep up with this Chinese kid." The commentator watched the ball fly towards Liang Xiao and couldn't help but exclaim.
"After all, the ages of the two are there, but I still believe that Barry will not let us down."
Liang Xiao saw Brent Barry following closely, he took a step forward and grabbed the ball in advance, and Barry arrived just in time at this time.
"I won't give you a chance!" Liang Xiao took advantage of the momentum to start, and his footsteps wanted to step towards the paint area, but before Barry could stand still, Liang Xiao had already broken through from his side.
The supersonic center was pulled away, and the low post was only Thomas and the opponent's big forward, and the opponent was also extremely uncomfortable by Thomas's defense, and had no power to parry the other players, and when he reacted, Liang Xiao had already gotten up in three steps.
"Oh, what is this kid going to do, dunk?" The narrator saw Liang Xiao enter the paint area in three steps.
At this time, the stadium seemed to freeze, the fans near forgot to chew the popcorn in their mouths, those who looked at the big screen from a distance forgot to blink, and Scott Bear also forgot to play, and all eyes looked at Liang Xiao.
In the paint area, a big foot, stepped up, Liang Xiao was thrown into the sky by himself, in his eyes, there was only a basket, and his right hand was pulled into a beautiful arc, like a sharp knife.
With a "bang", the rebound kept shaking.
