Chapter 184: Bowen's Black Feet
Ginobili on the side of the Spurs bench with his hands on his waist and looking at Popovich who was talking, the original ethereal long discovery is becoming rarer, Hoffman looked at Ginobili and recalled his wonderful performance just now and said: "There is a saying in the league called the Manu effect now: that is, at the beginning of 07, when Popovich removed Manu Ginobili from the starter, changed to the sixth man (substitute), and brought the team on the court as a leader when the main starter was at the break. Although he was a substitute, Manu's statistics that year were all career highs.
The final result was that the Spurs won the NBA championship that year, and Manu also won the title of "Best Sixth Man" in the 2007~2008 season. This phenomenon of Manu came to be known as the "Manu Effect", which means that a strong player is placed on the bench and leads the team's second-tier members to play, continuing the team's attacking intensity. In the 2008 season, there were a number of teams that wanted to replicate the "Manu effect", such as the Lakers putting Odom on the bench and the Jazz putting Kirilenko on the bench. ”
The pause was short, and soon the referee began to urge the players to play, and Gu Fei also came onto the court with everyone.
Back on the court to defend Gu Fei is still Bowen, the old man Popovich is very cautious and guesses that Dunleavy must be going to go to Gu Fei when he calls a timeout, so he immediately replaced Bowen on the court, "Your coach still dares to take you up, doesn't he know that as soon as you play, we are equivalent to 5 to 4?" Bowen's trash talk was very damaging, saying that Gu Fei had no presence on the court at all.
"Oh, is it? You might be able to try my run this time! Gu Fei didn't get angry, and said in a very calm tone.
Gu Fei said it very easily, but this was what made Bowen more vigilant, for all the teams in the league, maybe you can belittle Gu Fei in any other aspect, saying that he has poor offensive with the ball, bad defense, and poor passing intentions, but if Gu Fei's running, catching, and shooting is not good, then he himself is probably embarrassed to believe what he said, so Bowen immediately raised his attention to the maximum limit, and did not dare to be careless.
Just when Bowen was staring at Gu Fei, Gu Fei suddenly moved, and his upper body shook obviously. This shaking also made Bowen's nerves even more nervous, but he knew how powerful Gu Fei's running position was, so he didn't move his steps easily, although he didn't try Gu Fei's running position in the first quarter, but as a defensive expert, he studied Gu Fei quite deeply.
Just when Bowen kept recalling the essentials of defending Gu Fei's running position in his mind, Gu Fei's upper body shook again, and Bowen still didn't act, still thinking that Gu Fei was a feint, but Gu Fei's left leg had already stepped out at this time, and it was completely opposite to the direction of the shaking of his upper body, and when Bowen reacted, Gu Fei had already thrown him away for a short distance.
"Damn rookie, you actually fooled me!" After scolding, the movement under his feet did not slow down in the slightest, and immediately accelerated towards Gu Fei, but since Gu Fei got rid of him, how could he be easily caught up again? Gu Fei, who was walking through the inner line, made good use of the positions of the two sides of the inner line, which caused obstacles to Bowen, and Noah also gave Gu Fei some cover appropriately, so that Gu Fei appeared in the vacant seat.
"Nice movement. It seems that even the top defense like Bruce can hardly limit Gu's running! Wharton said with emotion when he saw Gu Fei running out of the vacant seat.
Gu Fei finally broke the defensive system of defensive expert Bowen and the Spurs, and ran directly to the bottom corner of the left side of the three-point line, and Cassel, who was always paying attention to Gu Fei in the top arc, did not let the basketball stay in his hands anymore, and the ball flew towards Gu Fei's position with a flick of his wrist.
There was no hesitation when he received the ball, and he didn't have much time to adjust and think about finding his rhythm in the most time, and then he jumped straight out, and at this time, there was a huge boo in the AT&T arena to interfere with Gu Fei's shooting, but it didn't seem to be useful, and the basketball still hit the basket accurately in the boos.
Falling back to the ground, Gu Fei glanced at Bruce Bowen, who was a little annoyed, and shrugged his shoulders gently, the expression on his face was obviously provocative.
"This time it's Gu's right offense and defense. As long as Gu Xian makes this move, no one in the alliance can defend him, this is an incomprehensible move! Hoffman looked at Gu Fei, who was retreating on the field, and said.
It was the Spurs' turn to attack, and this time the super sixth man Ginobili failed to help the Spurs score points and shoot iron, and Gu Fei grabbed the rebound very alertly, turned around and handed it to Cassel immediately, and he quickly ran towards the front court. And Gu Fei just passed the half, and Bowen immediately posted it, and his small movements had already been launched in the state of no ball.
"Rookie, you'd better be careful with me, I won't give you another chance to catch the ball!" Bruce Bowen's tone was vicious, as if he wanted to swallow Gu Fei into his stomach.
"Really? Maybe you'll be a little younger, and I'll take your word for it! Gu Fei sarcastically unceremoniously. As soon as the words fell, Gu Fei rushed out again, and Bowen, who was engrossed, immediately chased after him.
"Gu, Gu appeared in the empty seat again. Bruce can't stop him either, it's an opportunity! Wharton looked at Gu Fei on the field and ran out of the vacant seat again, and exclaimed.
Kassel naturally wouldn't let go of such an opportunity, and the one in his hand flew towards Gu Fei again in the first time.
After receiving the ball, Gu Fei jumped up directly without any hesitation as every shot he had ever made.
"Be careful!"
Gu Fei heard that this was Kassel's voice, Gu Fei thought he was reminding him to be careful of Bowen, but at this time the basketball had already left Gu Fei's hands, so although Gu Fei saw Bruce Bowen who pounced quickly, he was not worried that the shot would be capped.
The basketball got into the basket again without any suspense, and the score difference between the two sides also returned to single digits, but it was at this time that Gu Fei landed on the ground, and he felt as if his left foot had stepped on something, and suddenly Gu Fei felt that his ankle seemed to be cracked, and he heard a "click" sound, followed by a sharp pain that immediately hit Gu Fei's brain from the sole of his foot down his thigh, and the whole person also lost his balance and fell to the floor.
Gu Fei was constantly sweating on his head, and his body curled up and covered his left ankle with both hands.
The referee also immediately stopped the game, and immediately signaled the team doctor to come up to check on Gu Fei, and the Clippers players quickly surrounded him, "Gu, how do you feel!" Kassel's tone was full of concern and concern.
"You're murder, you trash, you should go back to your hometown!" This angry voice was Noah, and he pushed Bowen with his hand when he spoke, and Bowen raised his hand and looked very innocent, but soon Noah was separated by the referee and the situation did not continue to develop.
At this time, Gu Fei stood up with the support of his teammates, but his left foot was curled up to avoid touching the ground, and soon Gu Fei was carried back to the locker room by the team's staff for further treatment.
"That's what annoys Bruce, and while I'm very opposed to making small moves and some fouls big on defense, I'm still hard to accept about this kind of defensive defense that could ruin a player's career, I don't think it's a very good defender to do, and everyone who is a professional should know what such dangerous moves mean to an athlete!" Wharton's tone was angry, but also a little helpless!
And Bowen was blown a first-degree malicious foul by the referee, and it is unknown whether it will be upgraded in the future!
The Clippers also relied on Cassel's malicious foul and two free throws to chase the difference to only seven points, and at this time they still had one ball! (To be continued.) )
