Chapter 131: Terrifying Cooperation
"3-2 joint defense, let's change tactics, OK? Listen to me, don't care who breaks through, who stands in the box, listen to my lads, AK stands low in the penalty area, Oku on the left wing of the box, Boozer goes to the right wing of the box, Deron and Myers come out and rotate on the outside at any time, understand? Sloane quickly drew lines on the board, sweat dripping from his forehead.
The old man can't help but be anxious, the Warriors beat them badly in the first quarter, Sloan knew that he was stronger than Loops before, and he also knew that Chamberlain was stronger, but after these two joined forces, they couldn't be so strong, right? Seeing the slightly green blocking and dismantling cooperation between the two, Sloane's eyes were red: Damn, this cooperation has not been run-in, and the lethality of this cooperation is so terrifying, if the cooperation is tacit, who in the alliance can stop these two people at that time?
Watching Billups or Chamberlain attack their hoops again and again, Sloan couldn't help but think of the two men under him more than ten years ago: Malone and Stockton, who helped the team reach the Finals twice in a row, and almost won the league's first regular season record for several seasons in a row.
In just one quarter, the Warriors outscored the Jazz by 15 points, and they scored 34 points, compared to a measly 19 for the Jazz. In those 34 minutes, Chamberlain and Billups combined for 24 points, with the former almost smashing the Jazz hoop off and a success.
Old Nelson in exchange for Billups, in fact, it wasn't for the pick-and-roll, he didn't look down on the pick-and-roll, what kind of bullshit was that? He traded for Billups, including preparing to pick Curry Jr. to develop, just to choose an assistant for Chamberlain, yes, these point guards are just a simple ammunition transmitter in his hands, and he wants these people to help Chamberlain grow, and then the latter will rule the league.
Who says a single core can't win the championship? Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, and Lao Tzu will take Chamberlain as the single core to win a championship for you to see! That's what Nelson Sr. intended.
However, it seems that it is still good to have Chamberlain and Billups play together, at least in the short term, which can bring a huge improvement to the Warriors' record. Now Chamberlain is still a rookie, he is a good dragon, but he is only a young dragon, Billups is in his peak state, and it is unrealistic for him to be purely an ammunition delivery hand for Chamberlain.
Thinking of this, old Nelson sighed and muttered, "Do I still have to study the blocking tactics?" No, Z can't get used to being helped, he has to work hard to struggle in a difficult situation, he has to discover his full potential, he's not Carl Malone, he's Chamberlain! ”
Chamberlain didn't care about that, he was now in the joy of happy basketball, and for the first time he felt that playing a game was so simple, as long as he ran under the basket, found a good position and jumped, and someone immediately sent the ball to him.
That's exactly what Nelson Sr. doesn't want to see, he removes all obstacles just to Chamberlain's growth, even if it doesn't matter if it's in the lottery next season.
After a short break, the players returned to the field, DeLong organized the attack, and the little fat man arranged the attack in an orderly manner, and the last time it ended with Kirilenko's long-range shot.
Billups smiled and jogged to the three-point line, and as soon as his body bent to break through, Kirilenko hurriedly spread his legs, but at this moment Billups flicked his wrist and passed the ball to Chamberlain, who was in the basket, and then he ran inside.
Kirilenko pushed him hard, Chamberlain himself took the ball to the high post, he hit Kirilenko, who subconsciously wanted to take the ball out of Chamberlain's hand. Chamberlain, of course, knew what he was going to do, and when he hit Kirilenko, he also put the ball away, and then threw it forward, and Billups, who shook off Kirilenko, just received the ball.
After getting the ball, Billups ran with the ball for two seconds, he crashed directly into Oku's arms, blocked the Turk's way, and then passed the ball back, Chamberlain got the ball again, he was on the top of the penalty area, in the middle, jumped in front of the hoop and shook his wrist softly, and easily sent the ball into the hoop.
"It's that simple." Chamberlain smiled and said to Oku, "You have to work harder, boy, I haven't used my strength, why did you fall?" ”
DeLong was not convinced, he sneered: "Do you think this is a block? Do you think it's that simple? Since you want to play this, then I'm going to open your eyes! ”
The Jazz players scattered, Boozer still came up to prepare to cooperate with Delon in the pick-and-roll, Billups was blocked, and just as Delon was about to move on to the next step, a huge figure enveloped him, and he looked up to see Chamberlain's smiling face full of bad intentions.
Aren't you a pick-and-roll? Aren't you playing alone on your own? There is a kind of you who will come by yourself, Lao Tzu still doesn't believe it, Chamberlain seems to have met the big bad wolf of Little Red Riding Hood, and directly surrounded the hapless Delong.
DeLong quickly changed direction, but he couldn't get rid of the defensive Chamberlain, he wanted to pass the ball to Boozer, but according to the tactics, Boozer ran too far forward, and his vision was blocked by Chamberlain, he kept going back to find Boozer, but he went backwards Chamberlain also went back, and the speed and agility were not much inferior to him.
There was no way, Delon could only pass the ball to Kirilenko behind him angrily, and he didn't dare to throw the ball high to the basket because he was afraid that Chamberlain would cut off the ball.
But the worry still appeared, although Chamberlain did not cut off his ball, but Billups rushed out from behind Chamberlain, broke the ball that Deron had just passed, and leaned down like a fast horse to rush forward.
Fortunately, Kirilenko was fierce enough, and he preemptively caught up with Billups, waving his arms to entangle him, forcing Billups' speed to slow down. Billups changed direction so hard that his knee was almost out of shape, and Delon came up from behind, making it difficult for him to dribble.
But Billups didn't care, he kept messing around, and when Chamberlain reached the low post, he immediately jumped up and passed the ball over.
After Chamberlain got the ball, he smashed it into the hoop, Boozer screamed and tried to stop him, but Chamberlain rode him, let him reach out and grab his arm, and dance his arms hard, hanging Boozer's arm to make a strong buckle.
"If it goes on like this, Z will become a dunk." Old Nelson lamented, this was not his intention, he wanted a forbidden area king, not a dunk king.
However, Chamberlain's attack is very useful, not only the successful dunk but also a foul on Boozer, after successfully scoring the ball, Kirilenko's long-range shot just hit is equivalent to a wasted effort, and the score gap is still as big as ever.
Brewer broke through with the ball, and Ellis was completely shaken by him, and even his pants were almost taken away.
After passing Ellis, Brewer went straight into the penalty area, saw the on-the-coming Oxlade-Chamberlain, he dribbled a shot to get closer to him, and then immediately passed the ball to Oku.
Oku was moved by this pass, what is called a brother, this is called a brother! This pass was so timely that as long as he made a bullish dunk, the bad impact of the previous poor defense of Chamberlain would have dropped a lot.
Oku glanced at Chamberlain out of the corner of his eye, and saw that the latter was very close to him, holding the ball firmly on his waist with both hands, and jumping up to make a violent dunk position.
'Boom', a big slap came up, and Billups rushed to Oku's side with lightning speed, slapped the basketball in the latter's hand, and directly dropped the racket. As the former leader of the Bad Boy Army, you must not underestimate Billups's ruthlessness.
The referee blew him for a thug foul, but it didn't make up for the damage Oku had suffered, and the Turk felt like he didn't feel his hands anymore, he raised his hand behind his back to his eyes, and saw that there were five clear finger marks on it, and it was swollen!
"Damn, this guy is really rough and thick-skinned, my hands hurt so much." Billups bared his teeth and muttered to himself, Chamberlain put his arms around his neck and said, "You're so soft-hearted, man, if you hadn't given him that slap, he would have been concussed by my big hat if he jumped and dunked!" ”
The two laughed at the same time, Oku almost blew his lungs, and what made him even more angry was that Billups's slap was really hard enough to affect his shooting touch, and he didn't even hit two free throws.
Chamberlain grabbed the rebound, he threw it to Billups, reached out for the ball after entering the inside line, and the ball turned and carried the ball from the left wing of the box to the right wing of the box for two consecutive turns, Oku followed him with a fire in his heart, but Chamberlain suddenly took a step back, and then a small figure appeared in front of Oku.
Billups took Chamberlain's pass and quickly dribbled under his crotch in front of Oku while shaking his shoulders to break through, the Turk's flexibility has always been his shortcoming, and it is possible to keep up with Chamberlain, and he was a little dizzy by Billups so shaken.
At this time, Billups easily picked his wrist, Oku couldn't block it, and watched the basketball fall into the hoop.
Sloan couldn't sit on the bench anymore and watch the play, so he decisively called a timeout, gritted his teeth at Millsap beside him, and said, "You go on, the three of you block and dismantle, go and help Delon and Boozer!" ”
Millsap was full of ambition, patting his hard chest and running with his mouth full: "Don't worry, BOSS, see that I don't beat the Aucklanders into mud!" And that SUPER-Z, what's his nickname? Is Optimus Prime a reality? I'm going to make you impotent! ”
Sloan was silent, he felt that his substitution seemed to be a mistake, Oku was a doer despite his limited ability, but this Millsap seemed to be loyal, but in fact it didn't seem to be very reliable.
Millsap didn't have a chance to play against Chamberlain at all, Oku went down Boozer to the inside, Sloan had high hopes for this proud disciple, he expected Boozer to fight Chamberlain hard, but the height difference between the two was too big.
More frequent than Loops passes, Chamberlain didn't suffer at all against Boozer, the latter desperately squeezed the former just to push him away with a pout, and then turned around and awkwardly hooked up for a layup and hit!
With Oku off the court, the Jazz team has another shortcoming, and that is rebounding. Although the Turk is not very flexible, his height, reach and strength are there, and if he can't beat Chamberlain, he can disgust him, but what about Boozer?
Ellis missed a long-range shot, and as soon as Boozer bent over, Chamberlain had already jumped up, grabbed the rebound and threw it to Jackson, who hit a jumper.
Billups broke through the basket and threw an iron, Boozer hurriedly jumped, Chamberlain jumped at the same time, but grabbed the rebound above his head and passed it back to Billups, who threw again and hit!
Sloan: "......"
