Chapter 22: The Spurs in a Dilemma
A new game began, but it seemed that Vicky was only a little surprised by Scott's arrangement, and then there was no reaction.
Then the game continued, and the Hornets were a little more difficult without a strong pitcher like Chung Yu, and Paul was now completely in a burst mode, because he probably wouldn't have a chance if he didn't break out again.
The Spurs and Hornets are in a round-by-round offense for the time being.
The two sides are fighting back and forth, and neither of them wants to lose a move under the other's hands. The Spurs' offensive league is known for its rigorous system, where everyone is like a screw in a precision instrument, and every offense is overwhelming. The Hornets' offense doesn't have much characteristic, but Paul's threading in it keeps the Hornets from falling into the inferior.
By the end of the third quarter, the score was 77-74 and the Hornets were still three points behind.
"Three-point ......" When both players returned to the side of the court, Scott considered the current offensive and defensive situation of the two sides, and suddenly made some judgments.
"Looks like we can let that rather wicked kid play again." Scott looked at Zhong Yu and secretly thought, "He has been resting for a while, and there should be no problem with his physical strength." Even if the opponent can find out his weaknesses to attack, as long as the opponent needs to change the formation because of Zhong Yu, it will also make the Spurs' tactical arrangement more complicated. ”
Thinking of this, Scott patted Zhong Yu on the shoulder: "Boy, get ready to play, we're going to beat the Spurs, you're an important person." ”
Jongwook nodded, now he could feel more and more that his position in the team was improving. Scott can often think of himself, which is too much progress from his previous father who didn't love his mother.
The final quarter of the game begins!
Standing on the basketball court, this feeling of being able to be the center of everyone's focus is indeed a bit exciting. Next to the basketball court, there are a lot of sister paper fans, with blonde hair flying, cheering for Zhong Yu without reservation.
"Zhong Yu is back on the court......" Yu Jia said: "Teacher Zhang, at this critical moment, what do you think Scott's plan is to send Zhong Yu to the court?" ”
Zhang Li pondered for a moment, and then said: "According to my understanding, I think that Byron Scott's letting Zhong Yu play at this time is not necessarily about how many points he needs to score to make the opponent collapse, but hoping to use Zhong Yu's strong jump shot to interfere with the Spurs' offense and defense." ”
"Hmm." Yu Jia nodded and said: "But this also proves that Zhong Yu is gradually gaining a firm foothold in the Hornets system, he is a spearhead of the Hornets, even if he can't poke people to death, he can force the opponent to mess up." ”
"Yes!" Zhang Li smiled slightly: "That's the truth, so the current Zhong Yu, as long as he can maintain this state, the Hornets can only need him more and more." ”
"It's just that Zhongyu still has a long way to go for the Hornets to need him more and more." Yu Jia sighed: "After all, in a place like the NBA court, even a superstar who has been famous for a long time may fall into the dust, let alone a bench player like Zhong Yu who has only performed exceptionally well in a few games." ”
………………
While the two men chatted, the Hornets and Spurs played each other several times in the fourth quarter. Ginobili hit a pull-up jumper on Chung's head to stretch the score to 79-74 and put the Hornets five points behind.
At this time, the ball was still in the hands of the Spurs, and Duncan hit another rebound jumper, and the Spurs had broken through 80 points to 81 points.
"If the Hornets can't score the next goal, the situation is a little anxious." Watching Paul possess the ball past half the court, Zhang Li made a comment next to him.
"Yes...... It looks like Spurs are pretty tough defensively. Zhang said that because of this ball, the Spurs used Bruce Bowen of the famous league to defend Paul, plus a well-connected supplemental defense, for a while, Paul got into the interior several times but did nothing.
Seeing that the offense was approaching 24 seconds, Paul could only choose to shoot himself or pass the basketball to his teammates and let his teammates shoot quickly. He chose the latter, because at this time he happened to see Zhong Yu running in from outside the three-point line, standing at a forty-five degree angle on the left wing, seventeen feet.
"Catch!" Paul roared, and the basketball rushed straight after his voice. The basketball gliding in the air was like a sharp cannonball, but when it really reached Zhong Yu's hands, the strength of the basketball was just right, so that Zhong Yu jumped high without any buffer time.
"I won't let you get away with it." Ginobili didn't hate Zhong Yu to the core, but he also hated it, he jumped up with all his strength, and his right hand was sealed in front of Zhong Yu's eyes because it was too late.
Zhong Yu didn't expect that this kind of defensive trick that should have been used on Kobe Bryant's god would be used on his head!
However, it didn't matter to him, the basketball in his hand still flew out with a graceful arc......
And then!
"Huh!" The basketball blooms wantonly in the middle of the net, and the crisp sound of the net in the middle of the basketball court makes everyone intoxicated.
"In! It's in again! At such a critical moment, Jongwook's jump shot stabilized the Hornets. Zhang Li said quickly.
Paul also came up and high-fived Zhong Yu, this ball, he really didn't make a mistake! He didn't believe in mistakes either! Zhong Yu's jump shot, although it is not unpredictable, is indeed difficult to watch out for.
"Awesome boy!" Scott also cheered slightly under the basketball court. It seems that he made a wise way to replace Jongwook in the fourth quarter.
The Spurs' ** Vic frowned, he was ready to have two people to defend Jongwook.
Because this guy's hand seems to have been completely played, if you don't suppress it, then today's Spurs team will have to be shot by that infamous Chinese shooter!
"Sure enough, the formation has changed!" At the beginning of a new offensive round, Scott saw that the Spurs' defense against Jongwook had really changed their strategy, and he knew that his method had worked.
Yes, the current Zhong Yu has attracted the attention of the Spurs and attracted a lot of defensive firepower. Paul is here, getting more space to toss and turn, and the backcourt combination of Zhong Yu and Paul has suddenly made the Spurs a little clumsy.
Paul's assists came out one by one, and when the Spurs focused their defense on Paul, Zhongyu's side may have blossomed again......
The Spurs suddenly became a dilemma!
