Chapter 409: There is no basketball in Argentina
Tragic!
Or heroic!
Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith on the commentary bench don't know what words to use to describe the game. In their impression, there is no version of such a game at all, the whole game is full of fouls, strict zhòng fouls, and this game has not had a group fight so far, and the strictest zhòng is just Michael Jordan and David Robin two guards scolding each other.
But this game is definitely tragic in terms of the number of attritions. Stephen Jackson was injured by Carlos Boozer and carried to the hospital, and then Richard Hamilton was hit by Bruce Bowen's elbow and the bridge of his nose was also carried into the hospital, and Bruce Bowen was directly out of the court by the referee, and this malicious foul made this game feel like a gladiatorial arena.
But this is exactly what the Wizards wanted, and in this muscle-to-muscle gladiatorial battle, the Wizards gradually gained the upper hand with more muscular men's non-fatal fouls, and the score slowly opened up. After Mr. Marikroos managed to add another stroke to his foul count in the seventh minute of the fourth quarter, the Spurs had three players out of the game.
56:69
With the home team in front, the visitors in the back, and the Wizards winning, Michael Jordan leading the bench to cheer from the bench, corresponding to various boos in the AT&T Center arena.
Greg Vicky called a timeout. And the Warriors I led the Wizards are proud, at least still proud.
"Richard. How's it going? "I took the water that Luis Scola handed me. After taking a big sip, he picked up a towel and wiped the sweat on his face fiercely, and asked with concern.
"Just now Jim Johnson called from the hospital, Richard has a broken nose bridge, some minor concussion, and probably has to be out for a game or two! There shouldn't be any problems! Michael Jordan said resentfully.
"That's good!" I breathed a long sigh of relief, and although it is very likely that Richard Hamilton will not play with me again next season, and he and I don't have the same relationship as Christian Leitner, the ups and downs we have spent together for two years have made me worry about him all the time. Michael Jordan was heard saying that Richard Hamilton was fine. My heart sank.
Doug Collins gathered the crowd around for a final tactical analysis:
"With Bruce Bowen, Stephen Jackson and Marik Cross off the court, the Spurs have no one left at small forward and shooting guard, and now the only people they can play in these two positions are Steve Smith and Manu Ginobili who can play."
"Steve Smith is '69. He is 34 years old this year, and although he used to be an All-Star and has a lot of experience, his strength, degree, and especially his turning are not as good as before......"
Manuginobili was selected by the Spurs in 1999 at No. 28 in the second round, but he has not been put into the 12-man squad by the Spurs, and has been wandering in Italy. He's played more off the bench, he's a rookie out of the box, and he's not quite adapted to NBA life......"
"We can find a breakthrough from the two of them, and I don't think the two of them will stop us."
"The Spurs' David Robinson has 5 fouls now, Tim Duncan has 4, and if we break through, then I'll lean on David Robinson and Tim Duncan! Make them defensive foul ......"
Doug Collins was going on and on, and he showed us all the information that the coaching staff had gathered to tell us what we should do and how we should do it. What will happen if you do that?
Finally, under the referee's incessant urging, Doug Collins put away his tactical board and made a summary statement: "We have won this game!" But in this game, I don't need a win, I need a big win. A big win that everyone expected, and I want to use this big win to completely destroy the confidence of the Spurs. I make them feel scared when they hear our names......"
Won?
Victory?
Destroying Spurs' confidence?
I don't deny that the Wizards played very well in today's game, nor do I deny that the Wizards have a more than 9o% chance of winning this game, but I still have some doubts when it comes to a big win and the confidence to completely knock out the Spurs.
You must know that this is a team formed by the veteran ruffian Greg Vic, whose organization and discipline are second to none in the entire NBA, and under the leadership of Duncan, the big heart who has always been a little talker, this team has incomparable resilience. It's a bit of a fantasy to completely destroy their confidence.
Moreover, Doug Collins also miscalculated one thing, the guy named Manuginobili is not an ordinary person, although he is not as magical as Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, but he also has the strength to change the direction of the game by himself.
Demon Knife, Spirit Snake, Yellow Mamba Snake, the level killer in the GDP combination of the future ruling league, the future Finals MVP, and the future king of fake falls......
The thought of the string of halos above Manuginobili's head gave me a headache, and I wanted to warn Doug Collins to keep his eyes on the Argentine, but I didn't know what to say.
Standing on the court and looking diagonally across the field, as Doug Collins expected, Mr. Manuginobili appeared on the Spurs' lineup, and with no one available, Greg Vic finally remembered that there was still an Italian league MVP sitting on his bench.
Completely different from the cold faces of the rest of the Spurs, Manuginobili didn't smile, but his face was full of sunshine. Judging from his facial expression, it seems that he has already scored 5o points and 2o rebounds in this game, and has led the team far ahead, but in the game he has to hold back a smug smile for fear of attracting the angry eyes of the referees.
"Larry! Watch out for that Argentine! "I finally decided to remind Larry Hughes, who defended the Argentine.
"Huh?" Larry Hughes looked up in surprise.
"I've watched him play in Argentina and he's breaking through! Be careful! I explained.
"Isn't Argentina the kingdom of football? Do they have basketball? Larry Hughes looked puzzled.
"Be careful! Don't capsize in the gutter! Again, I stress that.
"Kwame! Feel relieved! This is America! It's the NBA! It's not a rubbish league like Italy! I let him have one hand, and I can keep him at bay......" Larry Hughes' tone was full of confidence.
I sighed faintly and didn't say anything more, just kept crossing my chest, hoping that Mr. Manuginobili hadn't integrated into the Spurs team and couldn't find his rhythm in this game. To be continued......
