Chapter 167: Defeat the Big Three
In the final 42 seconds, the score was 111:112, and the Knicks were one point behind.
Zhang Yu has already scored his 44th point of the game, especially in the final moments, the excellent performance Xiàn, which suppressed the momentum of the Nuggets Big Three, and the entire "Madison Square Garden" echoed everywhere with the shouts of "MVP" from fans.
Crawford stalked Billups so hard that Mr. Key couldn't break through this time, and George Carr called his own last timeout to set up the attack, which was a 20-second timeout.
20 seconds is not enough to lay out a detailed offensive tactic, you can only tell your players what to do, and how effective is it? It depends on how the usual tactics class goes. Especially for the team's brains, it's a big problem for the Nuggets in this regard, and their on-court commander remains calm at the moment.
What George Carr couldn't make up his mind about this timeout was, should he replace J.R. Smith? Bring on Dundee Jones, who is more solid defensively.
Looking at J.R. Smith's watch today, it seemed that it was no longer of much use to keep him on the court, and the old coach hesitated for a moment, and finally replaced the inactive J.R. Smith with Dundee Jones before going on the court.
J.R. Smith didn't have much resistance to the coach's decision, and he was hit hard by the first-year rookie today.
The man who convulsed never doubted himself, at any time, in any place, as long as the basketball was in his hands, he dared to take responsibility and dare to throw the basketball in his hand. But tonight, Zhang Yu hit him a lot, making him doubt himself for the first time.
Zhang Yu didn't know that he had almost collapsed such a big-hearted player tonight
After the Nuggets players returned to the court, they were all grim in the face of the boos of the Knicks' home fans.
Neither Randolph nor Anthony looked very good-looking, and Nene looked even more nervous.
Zhang Yu saw the completely different expressions of the Nuggets players, and his heart secretly fell into his heart.
Billups receives the ball and presses the time, which is to play the success rate.
After all, they are still the leading side, and if they play too fast, it will be a mess, and the more critical the key Mr. Key, the clearer and calmer his mind will be.
In the final 14 seconds of the offense, the Nuggets began to run tactically, with Randolph pulling to the perimeter to cover Billups and Anthony moving to the weak side.
Is it Anthony or Randolph? Or are they all feints, with Billups being the real point of attack?
New York players and fans are wondering that the Nuggets can attack too many people, especially at this time, it is really difficult to judge who is the main attacker? It looks like all three have the ability to finish the game.
Billups breaks through, his dribbling doesn't look fancy, but the fundamentals are very solid, and he can also use Crossover to shake off defenders when necessary.
Randolph's pick-and-roll was successful, and after blocking Crawford, he immediately moved in the opposite direction from Anthony.
This black fat man is accurate in the middle distance, and someone must be guarded, Anderson can only keep up, and New York's defensive formation is even more scattered.
Billups dribbled into the box, and David Lee had no choice but to step forward to defend Billups.
Nene was empty, Wallace and Anderson were both led outside the box, and after David Lee made up for Billups, Nene was completely unguarded under the basket, and Billups immediately made a ground-hitting pass......
"This Brazilian center forward is the main point of attack?" The fans in the stadium were shocked to see that there were no more defenders of their own by Nene beside him!
"Smack!"
The big yellow hand stretched out out out of thin air, Zhang Yu had already seen that Nenei's face was wrong, and he kept an eye on it, and after Billups broke through, he let go of his defender and made up for the inside, which appeared just right in a fatal position for the Nuggets.
"Break the ball!"
The Nuggets and Knicks players did not react, Zhang Yu controlled the ball and immediately counterattacked with the ball, Deng Tai Jones was dodged by Zhang Yu's change of direction, only to pull Zhang Yu's jersey and choose to use a foul to stop the fast break.
Crawford's whistle sounded, Zhang Yu slapped his chest hard, and then he was surrounded by excited teammates on his head and buttocks, and several black giant palms fell on his buttocks, making him feel like he was being toyed with.
Damn it! Lao Tzu hates being touched the most
The Nuggets players were so frustrated that even Billups was expressionless, and the red rabbit's free throws were so good that sending him to the free throw line was no different from sending him away. But Deng Tai Jones didn't foul, and letting Zhang Yu go to the empty basket unguarded was also a point away.
Zhang Yu hit both free throws, even at the last moment of the game, his free throw shooting will not be affected, only more accurate.
With only 22 seconds left in the game, the score was 113-112, and the Knicks had already taken a one-point lead, which was the last offensive of the Nuggets, and they had no timeouts and could no longer make offensive arrangements.
Billups continued to press the clock and didn't intend to give the Knicks another chance to attack.
This offense, hit the achievement to win the game.
If not, then lose an away game, it's that simple!
The Knicks players kept a close eye on their opponents, Zhang Yu and Crawford swapped defensive targets this time, and he decided to mark Billups himself, always feeling that this guy was the most dangerous.
Billups may have really planned to attack by himself at first, but seeing Zhang Yu defending himself, he has already seen how Zhang Yu defended in a game JR Smith shot 2 of 10, and was not sure that he could break through Zhang Yu, Billups chose to give the ball to Anthony.
Anthony catches the ball in his favorite position, and here again, today he has scored 40 points on both wings, and the last offense, Wallace is under unprecedented pressure, and Melon has a lot of kills!
In the last ten seconds, Anthony also chose to press the time, slapping the basketball and silently counting the time in his heart, no one knew when he would suddenly start
When the game reached a critical moment, time seemed to become very slow, and when Anthony counted to 7 seconds left, he suddenly accelerated and dribbled to the basket.
Wallace concentrated, played inside the main position, and let Anthony go outside.
Anthony took two steps into the box, leaning on Wallace, holding the ball with one hand and preparing for a layup......
Zhang Yu was still guarding Billups at the top of the arc at this time, he couldn't go in to make up for the defense, Billups was absolutely a disaster to receive basketball without defense!
Speaking of supplemental defense, in addition to Zhang Yu, the Knicks also have one person who is not inferior, and the timing is equally good, that is, Birdman Anderson.
Anderson made a risky choice at this time, he let go of his defender, and Randolph, who had already scored 22 points, chose to help defend Anthony's breakaway.
His block timing was very good, and just as Anthony tried his best to stand up to Wallace's defense and break into the interior for a one-handed layup, the Birdman strode from the strong side and slapped Anthony's layup cleanly......
The Nuggets didn't expect that it was this trade that added to the head and stabbed themselves at a critical moment?
The basketball flew in the direction of Zhang Yu, and this time it was no longer the tall Nene who grabbed the ball with him, but Billups, who was half a head shorter than him.
He jumped lightly and used his superior reach to easily get the basketball in his hand.
Billups's heart sank, he knew that he would definitely not be able to grab Zhang Yu, and he should have fouled quickly with 3 seconds saved in the game time, but Zhang Yu's free throw made him hesitate slightly, and the Chinese rabbit had already dribbled out of his control
Nene made a fool at this time, saw Zhang Yu running like a rabbit with the ball, and eagerly made a foul on David Lee next to him.
This foul made all the Knicks fans and players stunned for a while, and then burst into laughter, the Nuggets' Brazilian center was afraid that he was confused, and the foul on the off-ball player in the last two minutes was to make two free throws, and even if they fouled, they couldn't get the ball at all, and they gave away two points for nothing.
George Carr was expressionless off the pitch, and even if Nene wasn't stupid, they wouldn't have won the game, and now it's just a waste of time.
David Lee made two free throws and two hits in the cheers of the fans, completely killing the suspense!
Zhang Yu received the serve from the front court and held the ball high, the Nuggets players stood still, no one came up to fight, and they had given up the game.
The last few seconds of the game passed like this, and Zhang Yu finally gently put the ball on the ground and high-fived his teammates to celebrate the hard-won victory.
Randolph came over and exchanged jerseys with Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu whispered in his ear: "Will you go to a nightclub later?" I'm in for a treat. ”
The black fat man was half angry, Zhang Yuming knew that they were about to fly back to Denver, and he deliberately angered him.
The two exchanged jerseys, and Randolph walked briskly back to the away dressing room amid the boos of the crowd with a sad look on his face.
Zhang Yu won the "Best Player of the Match" without suspense in this game, playing 38 minutes and scoring 46 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 1 block, another 40+.
The Los Angeles media and the Cleveland media all sighed for a while, Zhang Yu's 40+ made them unable to hack him for a long time.
At the post-game press conference, there was a peaceful scene, no one was uninteresting, at this time he came to ask some difficult questions about Zhang Yu, he was not afraid of embarrassing him, I wish that anyone would not open his eyes, especially Sabi or Raki himself came up and let him slap his face.
It's a pity that people are not stupid, and they concentrate on recording without saying a word, which makes his YY fall short.
After the press conference, he drove home alone, he wanted to send the two girls back to the hotel, but he always made people wait for him for more than an hour, right? Besides, it's not good to be photographed, it's better for him to have fewer scandals recently, otherwise the old man will have to fly over with a feather duster
When he got home, Zhang Yu immediately called Xia Wei's phone.
The two girls are in the hotel at the moment, and the two of them really asked for a double room, Xia Wei called this not extravagant and wasteful.
At this moment, the two girls put their mobile phones in front of their respective beds, Xia Wei was sweating and doing sit-ups, inadvertently, the curvaceous figure was revealed with the ups and downs of the body, the fair and flawless skin revealed a faint pink, the two jade arms and the flat lower abdomen were exposed, especially the two bulges on the chest, which made Ai Yue'er on the side grit her teeth with jealousy every time she saw it!
In addition to constantly peeking at Xia Wei's chest, Ai Yue'er was mostly focused on the mobile phone next to her, absentmindedly fiddling with the notebook, if Zhang Yu could see it, she would find that this dead girl was still peeping, what a voyeur!
"Jingle Bell ......"
Xia Wei's mobile phone rang suddenly, and the little girl turned off the notebook fiercely, got up and walked to the bathroom......
"I'll take a shower first!"
