Chapter 250 Contest in Progress (continued)
"Mike Dunleavy was obviously very unhappy with the team's performance just now, and he made a few key changes, but I don't think it was a good decision to keep Andre Jordan on the court, who had just been not doing well." Bill Wharton has some doubts about Mike Dunleavy not replacing Jordan.
'Yes, young players need encouragement and opportunities, but in a situation like this, I think it's better to try to let them learn rather than play so that their confidence doesn't take a bigger hit. Hoffman agrees with Wharton.
The Clippers' offensive possession, Chalmers, the most valuable player in the NCAA final four finals, steadily dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, stretched out his thumb to indicate that the team's tempo was lowered, and the Clippers players ran unhurriedly and looked unhurried with the team's offense.
Mike Dunleavy crossed his arms and smiled, Chalmers was only a second-round pick, but his four years of college experience made him more mature and sophisticated, and he did a good job of controlling the team's tempo.
When the offensive time entered fourteen seconds, Gu Fei suddenly pulled and stopped and then accelerated, such a sudden swing caught Kirk Sinrich off guard, although as Gu Fei's former teammate, he knew Gu Fei's style very well, but it did not mean that he could prevent it, and Chalmers's passing skills were reflected at this moment, Gu Fei just ran to the direction he expected to run, the basketball happened to come to him, and after catching the ball with both hands, Gu Fei stopped, did not act immediately, but slowed down.
At this time, Gu Fei's position was one step outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, and as his body stopped, Xin Li Qi had already caught up again.
Gu Fei didn't choose to attack casually, and looked at Jordan, who was in an inside position to grab Tyson Chandler's position, Gu Fei waved to Andre Jordan thoughtfully, and this pure big man inside line saw Gu Fei's gesture and immediately pulled it out.
With Andre Jordan's uplift, Gu Fei accelerated violently, and with Jordan's cover, he successfully threw off Xin Li and then accelerated from the left side to the inside, it seems that Gu Fei has no intention of slowing down. Tyrus Thomas, who is also a former teammate of the Bulls, looked at Gu Fei who rushed in, and immediately turned around and a half to help defend it, he didn't want the restricted area he was guarding to be invaded at will.
Thomas, who is 208 tall, has incredible physical qualities, but he doesn't seem to be so harmonious in both the power forward and small forward positions, because he doesn't have the body and strength of a power forward at the power forward position, and he doesn't have the agility and pace of pace at the small forward position, so this creates his incoordination.
Facing the defense of Tyrothomas, Gu Fei did not dare to be careless, he was very aware of Thomas's terrifying bounce and defensive awareness, and Andre Jordan, who was covering for him, had already cut from one side to the inside.
"Andre," Gu Fei shouted, not afraid of his thoughts being exposed. With a flick of the wrist, the basketball rebounded in front of Andre Jordan one by one, the height was just right for Jordan to catch, but Gu Fei did not stop his inward cut, when Tyrus Thomas turned around and pounced on Jordan, Gu Fei raised his arm and signaled Jordan to pass the ball back.
Jordan immediately passed the ball back to Gu Fei, Thomas immediately turned around and pounced on Gu Fei again as if he was being played, Gu Fei received the ball and slapped it heavily, leaning on Thomas with a big stride to look like Gu Fei was determined to pay attention to Thomas alone.
Gu Fei swept away, Andre Jordan did not wait in place, but rushed to the basket, looking like he was ready to impact the rebound. The corners of his mouth went up, and he accelerated violently again, and the whole person had reached the basket, it seemed that Gu Fei was too deep, and Thomas couldn't stop being excited in his eyes. In his opinion, Gu Fei was already in his pocket.
"Andre" Gu Fei shouted again, and then threw the ball behind his head, and the sudden move caught Thomas off guard.
And Gu Fei immediately let go of his body after passing the ball, but he knew how big Andre Jordan's impact was. He didn't want to be injured by his teammates, and Thomas was reluctant to turn around and prepare to defend.
Andre Jordan took a big stride, and the big man over seven feet pulled up in place. The raised arms caught Gu Fei's just right pass steadily, and it was Thomas who was coming, Andre Jordan was not afraid, the whole person was getting taller and taller, his head was even higher than the basket, and with a roar, he pressed Thomas and smashed the ball to the basket, and Thomas and Jordan's bodies were knocked out after a hard impact.
syllable
The basket was shaking violently, and Andre Jordan was like a bloodthirsty shark at the moment.
The United Center fell silent again, and Thomas slumped to the floor, looking embarrassed.
"Terrifying physical fitness, it's incredible that Andre Jordan's head was far higher than the basket just now," muttered Bill Wharton, who seemed to be able to trace back to ancient times when a big man still had such a perverted physique.
"I think the Los Angeles Clippers really made a good deal, just a little cash in exchange for a huge potential inside, but Andre Jordan still needs to grow, this growth period is not short, as the saying goes, big men only look long in three years, I hope the Clippers can be patient to cultivate and not be too Andre Jordan." Hoffman said seriously.
"Gu, thank you" Andre Jordan shouted excitedly, such a dunk is not only happy for the audience and teammates, but even he himself feels extremely happy, he has few opportunities like this in the game, and now he is happy to have such a shot.
"It's your consciousness is good, keep working hard, you can do better" Gu Fei smiled lightly, patted Andre Jordan's ass and turned around and ran towards the backcourt.
Andre Jordan nodded excitedly, after all, Gu Fei is recognized as the boss of the team, and young Jordan is very happy to be recognized by the boss of the team. He took his own big stride and ran to the backcourt.
The excited Jordan made another contribution on the defensive end, Derrick Rose's terrifying change of direction and breakthrough layup inside was directly taken off by Jordan, and the cheers of the United Center stopped abruptly, everyone's mouths were wide open, and they couldn't believe their eyes at all.
"Andre Jordan is fully excited, and the Bulls are going to weigh the possible cost of breaking inside"
As Hoffman said, Andre Jordan suddenly burst out with huge energy on both offensive and defensive ends, while Tyson Chandler rarely enjoyed leisure, Jordan was like a tiger down the mountain to block rebounds on the inside, and for a while, the Clippers with inside security found an opportunity to erase the difference after hitting two consecutive three-point shots, and the eight-point lead disappeared in just over two minutes, making Skels look ugly, and Skels called a long timeout with a cold face.
When the timeout returned, Kirk Hinrich, the former leader of the Bulls, stopped the Bulls' decline and injected new strength into the demoralized Bulls.
Switching offense and defense, the excellent Chalmers got more playing time, this time period was already Miller's appearance, but today Dunleavy was obviously very satisfied with Chalmers's performance, so Chalmers continued on the field without being replaced, and after steadily controlling the ball to the front court, seeing Gu Fei reaching out for the ball, Chalmers passed the ball without hesitation.
Kirk Sinrich didn't dare to be careless at all, Xinrich frowned when he looked at the confident Gu Fei, his eyes couldn't help narrowing, he knew very well the strength of his former teammate.
The basketball seemed to be connected with Gu Fei, and he looked at the running position of his teammates, and saw Andre Jordan Gu Fei, who was eager to try inside, shook his head and signaled not to cover.
"Singles? He's still so confident. Sinrich muttered softly to himself.
Gu Fei's eyes looked at the basket in the distance, and the speed at which the basketball in his hand hit the ground slowly became faster.
Xin Li Qi completely captured Gu Fei's eye movements, immediately pressed up to interfere, and tried his hand to block Gu Fei's breakthrough line as much as possible, if Gu Fei broke through, he still had the confidence to stop it, but in the face of Gu Fei who was running, Xin Li Qi had no bottom in his heart, so he had to compress Gu Fei's space and compress it again, and he didn't dare to leave Gu Fei a little space.
In the face of Hinrich's close pressing, Gu Fei's right hand slapped heavily, the basketball rebounded to his left hand after hitting the ground behind him, and the left hand slapped hard, the basketball returned to his right hand again, and the continuous back dribble controlled his body, but every step back Hinrich pressed a step, and unconsciously Gu Fei was two steps away from the three-point line, it seemed that Gu Fei was completely locked by Hinrich, and the fans of the United Center began to release their passion again, most of them wanted to see Gu Fei eat the scene.
