Chapter 61: Slaying the Dragon

Harris looked at O'Neal on the court, especially O'Neal's appearance full of flames, he felt a little more at ease, there are not no people in the league who can subdue this beast, but these people are definitely not in the Timberwolves.

"The Lakers are going to win this game because we have O'Neal," Harris thought to himself.

Garnett served from the baseline, Nash quickly advanced to the frontcourt, the Lakers defense was already stationed, Nash took a few steps back and cruised around the center circle, waiting for Garnett to get in position.

Nash glanced at the box and made a quick decision, he quickly ran towards the box with the ball, Fisher's pace was indeed fast, and after being played twice by Nash, he became more and more cautious. However, when Nash came to the three-point line at the top of the arc, he did not rush in, but flicked his wrist, and the ball flew to Pierce on the right wing like an eye, and Nash himself was without the ball to the restricted area.

After the first two shots, even if Nash was out of the ball, the Lakers players did not dare to be careless to him, Nash entered the restricted area and used Garnett's cover to put Fisher behind him, and then pocketed out from the right side along the bottom line, and O'Neal saw Nash shake off Fisher, and then looked at Pierce, who was holding the ball at 45 degrees on the right side, was being entangled by Eddie Jones, O'Neal gritted his teeth, ready to give up the basket, and went out with Nash, in his opinion, Pierce, who had no way to get rid of Eddie Jones, would inevitably return the ball to Nash. And Nash will inevitably be unguarded by then, which is too dangerous.

Pierce did return the ball to Nash, O'Neal also guessed the opening, and when Nash received the ball, he was exactly two steps inside the three-point line from the baseline, with his back to the basket and O'Neal, O'Neal's whole body had enveloped Nash, and Nash couldn't attack the basket again. This also made O'Neill's heart snicker.

Just when O'Neal was snickering, Nash suddenly put his back on O'Neal, O'Neal naturally didn't dare to be careless, in order to prevent Nash from turning his back, he also used a little dark energy, which almost made Nash lose his balance, just when Nash fell to the ground in front of his body, Nash turned his wrist and passed the ball around O'Neal's back without looking at anyone.

Nash's move was once again unexpected by O'Neal.

With a "clang", Garnett was already hanging on the basket, and Garnett's crotch was Fisher.

In fact, Fisher is to prevent Nash from passing the ball behind his back, after he saw O'Neal go out, he immediately used his small flexible xìng to go around in front of Garnett, which is to prevent Nash from passing the ball to Garnett behind his back, as long as Nash can't turn around and pass the ball blindly, he will inevitably be cut off. If you don't pass the ball, how can Nash attack the basket with his back on his back? In the end, he had to reorganize the attack again.

But what Fisher never expected was that the ball passed by Nash was actually an upward parabola, how did the ball come out? He's also a point guard, and he's never seen anyone pass anything like that, and in the end Fisher could only watch helplessly as the ball flew over his head and was dunked by Garnett behind him.

The series of offensive and defensive battles between the two teams on the court was very short, and even some spectators didn't react to see Garnett hanging on the basket.

And Zhuang Fei on the sidelines looked at Nash who fell to the ground, and then looked at the timer on the basket, and his heart was full of surprise.

It only took nine seconds to attack the Timberwolves this time, and for the Timberwolves who have played a run-and-gun this season, it is not uncommon for the Timberwolves to end the offense in nine seconds, even if it is a positional offense. So when playing the Nuggets, the Timberwolves even had some rounds that could solve the battle within 7 seconds, Zhuang Fei was surprised that Nash was able to use cover and block cutting in the positional battle, and played a small range of cooperation, in addition to playing a dozen blocks and dismantling with Garnett, the previous Nash was left to hand over the ball to Pierce, be a spectator himself, and watch Pierce play, and this time, he contacted Pierce and Garnett and let Pierce be a spectator.

This is the run-and-bomb tactic that Zhuang Fei wants, the run-and-bomb tactic with Nash as the core, and it was actually played in the fourth game, how could Zhuang Fei not be surprised and shocked.

"Zhuang, this is the run-and-bomb I want, this is the first time I have seen the run-and-bomb tactics with Nash as the core this season, this time the tactical cooperation, Nash is the real core" D'Antoni next to Zhuang Fei is the same as Zhuang Fei, both of them have the same idea, the Timberwolves' run-and-bomb in the first three games is not pure in his opinion, because Nash has always been an outsider, and only the run-and-gun with Nash as the core is the real run-and-bomb in his mind.

Unlike D'Antoni's excitement, Zhuang Fei immediately fell into a deep loss after a short period of euphoria, this is not Nash's real ability, these abilities are magicians, no one knows better than him what Nash's level is, when the magician's ability disappears, what should Nash do? What should the Timberwolves do? Nash may want to pass such a freehand ball even after losing his ability to be a magician after regaining his confidence, but it is very likely that the result is that he is more than he can do. Just like described in the starting novel, after the protagonist crosses over from a generation of heroes to a high school student, although he still retains the experience and consciousness of a master, his ability is gone. Even if you know the essentials of flying eaves and walking walls, you can't fly the eaves and walking walls. This is what Zhuang Fei is worried about.

Although Nash may not be able to pass such a freehand ball in the future, it should not be possible to do the same situation in the first three games.

Take your time, and one day Nash will become truly like a magician. Zhuang Fei thought with peace of mind.

"Oh my God, I don't look at people's back passes, I don't look at people's back passes, Nash's pass is too jīng彩, Erwin, this is the most jīng彩 assist I've ever seen" Michaels, the commentator, stood up from his chair again excitedly.

In fact, if he could, Magic Johnson also wanted to get up from his chair and shout, but in the end he held back, no one knew better than him the difficulty of the ball just now, when Nash was about to pass back before he fell to the ground, he also shouted in his heart that it was bad, because Fisher had already judged it in advance, but when Nash's ball came out, all his worries turned pale in front of that wonderful arc. It was a wonderful goal, maybe he could have made such a wonderful pass in his prime, but he never tried it. And Nash did it today.

"I actually compared him to me at my peak" The magic shook his head with a wry smile, and hurriedly drove out this strange idea in his heart, how could a young point guard compare to him at his peak? It's impossible, no matter how good it is, it's impossible, and this conceited magician still has it.

"Now the Lakers can't do anything about Nash, Irvin, what do you think?"

"It's hard for both sides to guard against each other, it's hard for the Lakers, it's hard for the Timberwolves likewise"

As soon as the Magic's words fell, O'Neal received a pass from Eddie Jones, squatted lightly under the basket under the sandwich of Garnett and Rashad Lewis, and then hung the basket with both hands.

With a "boom", the basket roared as if it had been torn apart, and Garnett and Lewis took a few steps back in horror.

"Too strong, O'Neal is too strong" D'Antoni looked at the still shaking basket in amazement, is this what people can do?

"Hmph" O'Neal glanced at Garnett and Lewis contemptuously, and let out a cold snort from his mouth. Lewis's legs trembled under O'Neill's gaze.

Zhuang Fei sighed from the audience, shook his head, looked at Garnett, whose face was uncertain, and then looked at Lewis, whose face was pale, and then got up and walked towards the technical table.

The Timberwolves request a timeout

Looking at Lewis who walked off the court with a dejected face, Zhuang Fei shook his head, this player who cried in the draft was just a high school student after all, and it was understandable to be scared like this under O'Neal's power.

Zhuang Fei's pause this time was not because he was dissatisfied with the performance of the players on the court, but mainly to interrupt O'Neal's anger, the Timberwolves' first three shots were almost all scored after playing O'Neal, in this case, it is better to break O'Neal's momentum, and by the way, it also let Lewis calm down.

The beginning was only 2 minutes, and the two sides played so much, which was really unexpected by Zhuang Fei.

"Erwin, if I was not mistaken, Lewis was almost scared to cry by O'Neill"

"Yes, O'Neal is too strong for Lewis" The magician also secretly sighed, this Lewis is too soft, or Garnett is much tougher.

In the first quarter, the two teams played like this, which can almost be said to pave the way for the rest of the game, the Timberwolves must have launched a quick offense with Nash as the core, while the Lakers have to play O'Neal no matter how fast or slow. Momentum,

This battle is a real flying eagle vs. lion.

The magician suddenly wondered who would be stronger, the eagle or the lion.

"What an awaited showdown," the magician sighed again.

There are many factors that determine a game, momentum, strength, luck, etc., in some respects, momentum can determine luck, many basketball games, if a certain side is momentum, then luck will also follow, although the Timberwolves' goals are all jīngcai, but really compared to momentum, Zhuang Fei also has to admit that Ao Fat is more domineering and more uplifting.

"Everyone did a good job just now, and every one of our players performed well in the face of this Lakers team that is stronger than us," Zhuang Fei said to the Timberwolves players with a smile.

"The other party's O'Neill is very strong, as for which kind of strength, I think Kevin and Rashad should know very well" Zhuang Fei said and did not forget to smile and looked at Garnett and Lewis, Garnett was embarrassed, and Lewis was ashamed. Zhuang Fei paused slightly and continued.

"For O'Neal, none of us can do anything, none of us can restrain him, he is like an ancient dragon, soaring in the sky, overlooking all beings, but the dragon is not terrible, the fate of the dragon is to achieve a group of brave dragon-slaying warriors, and you are the warrior who can slaughter O'Neal, the ancient dragon, I hope you will always remember that basketball is a sport of five people, even if one of the opponents is strong, it is not terrible, even Jordan did not really break through the blockade of the Pistons, let alone O'Neal? So, warriors, today I'd love to see how you slaughtered O'Neill's dragon."

"Dragon Slayer Warrior" Rashad Lewis met Zhuang Fei's gaze in surprise, which made Lewis feel warm, full of encouragement and trust.

The coach is right, I can't be intimidated by O'Neill's momentum, the momentum of the dragon is just the medal of bravery, and the more the dragon with momentum can show the bravery of the brave.

Rashad Lewis firmly thought in his heart that he wanted to be a brave man. The fear just now was also swept away.

Zhuang Fei is not an orator, but his sincerity and trust can always be convincing, and Duncan, Carter, and now Jackson, Nash and Lewis, they can only fall into the beautiful fairy tale woven by Zhuang Fei.

It doesn't matter if the fairy tale is true or not, the important thing is that the people in the fairy tale are always a group of people full of unknown powers and legends.
