Chapter 487: The Gentleman's Agreement (Supported by the Xie Brothers)
The Rockets didn't have much chance in this game, their core Maddie sat on the court, the tactics were improvised, Yao Ming, Battier and Artest were all more or less injured, and Scala was lazy, from the lineup to the ability to the morale to the desire to survive, no matter which point was completely blown out by the Warriors.
The alignment between Chamberlain and Yao Ming can feel the change in this fellow countryman, although Yao Ming still keeps asking for the ball on the court to play alone or help his teammates cover, but in fact, he has lost a lot of movement. The power of basketball lies in the projection, and running is a direct boost to the projection creation opportunity, and most of the players' bodies are wasted on running, followed by confrontation.
Yao Ming ran less, and he was not very resolute in his confrontation with Chamberlain, and it was obvious that the once conscientious model worker star had also begun to cheat and slip.
"Hey, you slippery head." Chamberlain shouted in a low voice as he fought with Yao Ming for the card position.
Yao Ming smiled and shot back: "You still say that I have a slippery head, aren't you the same?" I can't feel the power in your ass! ”
Chamberlain calculated in his heart, and then took advantage of the change of position when he said: "Let's act, let go of you and let me go, anyway, this is the regular season, as long as the fans are happy to watch, you say, right?" ”
Yao Ming didn't speak, but then he was a step slower when he followed Chamberlain's sideways, Billups immediately threw the ball to the hoop, Chamberlain jumped up and grabbed the ball was a reflexive dunk, Yao Ming followed and jumped up to block, but to no avail.
Chamberlain squeezed his eyes at Yao Ming after landing, Yao Ming grinned and ran down with his head, and soon, he was stuck in the penalty area with Chamberlain to get to the position, Brooks didn't dare to pass, he looked at Yao Ming and Chamberlain on the inside with some hesitation, worried that he would be robbed after passing.
Yao Ming was anxious and shouted, "Give me the ball!" ”
He has a gentle temper and rarely yells at his teammates, so the yelling once paid off, and Brooks immediately put the ball in his hands.
Against Chamberlain, Yao Ming hit it rhythmically with his shoulder, Ibaka wanted to come up and wrap Chamberlain turned his head and shouted: "I can do it!" ”
As a result, taking advantage of his turn, Yao Mingli jumped up and hooked up to the basket, and sent the ball into the hoop with a trademark small hook with precision.
Chamberlain looked at Ibaka depressedly and complained: "Look at man, it's you who distract me, otherwise I will definitely cover him with this ball!" ”
Ibaka was sincerely frightened and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Z, next time I won't make a mess." ”
Chamberlain smiled wickedly, and then his face quickly recovered, and he patted Ibaka on the back and said, "Don't be so outside, in fact, you are very positive, which is good, but you have to watch that Argentine, you know, Argentines are so cunning!" ”
Iverson broke through to the basket with the ball, Brooks stuck to him, Chamberlain reached out for the ball, Iverson quickly rushed to the right side along the baseline after passing the ball, he thought Chamberlain would pass the ball back to him by the way to block Yao Ming and Brooks, the tactics were like this, but Chamberlain got the ball and got up and dunked.
But at this time, Yao Ming was behind Chamberlain, and he jumped up like this, so he was looking for a hat, Yao Ming slapped it from behind and slapped the ball out of the court.
Iverson hit a breakaway jumper, and he smiled at Chamberlain: "Pass, Z, pass!" I'm an All-Star West starter. ”
"Me too!" Chamberlain said triumphantly.
"But so is your opponent, and my opponent is a rookie, and I play him just like my daughter plays Barbie." Iverson said-for-tat.
Chamberlain laughed, he looked at Brooks with bad intentions and said, "Your analogy is really good, Aaron, you guy has a cheap mouth." ”
Yao Ming looked like he was coming to feel, this time he and Scola came together, the latter helped him block Chamberlain, Yao Ming rushed into the box in front of Ibaka, jumped up and ended the game with a dunk.
Ibaka's face was full of helplessness, Chamberlain looked at him, and he hurriedly apologized again: "I'm sorry, Z, I didn't get into the position well, and I won't let Yao enter the basket so lightly next time." ”
In fact, Chamberlain wanted to apologize, the ball was obviously a problem with his defense, but since Ibaka apologized first, he reluctantly accepted it. After a few more words of encouragement to Ibaka, Chamberlain suddenly felt that this was not good, he was pretending to be too forced, and he was bullying an honest boy like Ibaka, which was not good, very bad.
So, after Billups passed the ball to Chamberlain, he forced the basket to attract Scola to wrap it, and then passed the ball to Ibaka, who hit a jumper, Chamberlain went up to congratulate him, and he was full of gratitude to Dade: "You are so selfless, Z, your pass is amazing!" ”
Chamberlain really wants to apologize, brother, don't be so humble, are you making me feel guilty to death?
Yao Ming played again and again, Adelman was overjoyed, and shouted "give the ball to Yao, let Yao come" and the like on the court, and the fans were also very excited, they didn't think about whether the two guys on the court were releasing water to each other, but thought that the two sides were competing for the position of the first center and showed their real level.
The game between the Warriors and the Rockets may be the most valuable game in the NBA at present, and the direct confrontation between Yao Ming and Chamberlain is full of controversy.
Yao Ming didn't have to go too far, after all, this kind of water release is not authentic, and if the East Window incident happened, it would be awesome, so he pretended to be unable to squeeze the ball and passed the ball to Scola after hitting Chamberlain on his back. Scola stunted Ibaka with several shakes in a row, and he stepped back to shoot a jumper, and Chamberlain, who had been prepared, pushed Yao Ming away and gave him a big hat.
Iverson countered with the ball, and the fast break was fast, and he scored on a layup.
CCTV Zhang Liang shook his head vigorously: "This ball is unreasonable, everyone knows that Chamberlain's co-defense and supplementary defense are the first in the league, Scola should single Ibaka to attract Chamberlain to divide the ball to Yao Ming or pass the ball back to Yao Ming for Yao Ming to play, all in all, this ball should be handed over to Yao Ming, at least Yao Ming will not be blocked." ”
Yu Jia listened carefully with a serious face, he kept nodding his head, and when Zhang Li Lao Shi finished speaking, he picked it up and said: "Chamberlain's strength is too great, you see Yao Ming stuck with him and wanted to make trouble for him, but when he waved his hand, Yao Ming was pushed away like a toy car, this is natural divine power!" ”
Zhang Li added with a wet smile: "This is normal, I had dinner with Chamberlain during the Olympic Games, ouch, you don't see, in reality, Chamberlain's big waist and round waist are seven feet tall and his waist is seven feet, that is called a big man, it may be nothing on TV, if you meet you in reality, you will know, this is a devil muscleman, that strength, tsk, the overlord carries the ding!" ”
After the first quarter, Yu Jia hurriedly interjected to show his sense of saving: "In this way, dear fans and friends, the first quarter of the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors has been played, and now the Warriors have taken the lead 28-23, let's take a break and come back later." The next time is the lottery time, we have prepared rich prizes, you only need to send a text message to our program group with your mobile phone, you will have a chance to win the new generation of Chamberlain combat boots sponsored by Champion Sports 'Z Christmas' and sports backpack 'Z Easy', okay, next Mr. Zhang shouted to start I shouted stop. ”
Zhang Lili smiled slightly, he looked at the lottery and smiled: "Let's start...... Stop! ”
Yu Jia: "......"
At the beginning of the second quarter, Yao Ming and Chamberlain were both on the bench, and the two sides began to send substitute lineups, with Mutombo and Evans, two defensive giants, on the court.
West made a jumper, and the Rockets handed over to Scola to attack, whose Argentine dance steps returned to the court, Ibaka was stunned again, and Scola hit a basket.
Curry organized the offense, his sharp breakthrough overwhelmed Brooks, Mutombo could only come out to make up for the defense, seeing this, Curry immediately passed the ball to Evans on the inside, Evans wanted to dunk after holding the ball, and Scola came up. Facing the Argentine captain, Evans smirked and slammed into it.
I only heard Scola scream, and then flew straight out as if he had been hit by a fast car.
"Squeak!" The whistle blows, and the offense fouls.
Evans wanted to cry without tears, he threw away the ball and ran to the referee to complain with a wronged face: "This is a fake fall, boss, this is a fake fall!" ”
Argentina possessed the ball, and Weaver, who came off the bench, changed direction twice like Wade on the trumpet and entered the Warriors' restricted area with a split dunk, and when he turned around, West showed the stunt he had just practiced, and hit a step-back jumper to hit two points steadily. Artest forced a breakthrough and knocked down Curry, who accidentally ran over, was whistled for an offensive foul, and Artest also wanted to complain that the other party faked a fall, but looking at Curry's blue face as if he could die at any time, he still endured the complaint in his heart.
The current Weaver is like the West of the year, this kid doesn't know what medicine he took, this season he took advantage of Maddy's absence in his play that called a brave, after he came on the court, he suddenly shot a person to score 8 points in a row, West was helpless, he couldn't help but ask Curry: "Is it that I've been too focused on offense lately and forgot how to defend?" ”
On the offensive end, West was also unrelenting, he and Curry hit consecutive three-pointers and also colored, during which Ibaka grabbed the frontcourt rebound and dunked, and the first five minutes of the second quarter were played, and the two sides played a 14-14 tie, and the Warriors still maintained a five-point lead.
Yao Ming replaced Uncle Mu, who couldn't run, and as soon as he came back, he turned around and hit a jumper in the restricted area, but during this period, the Warriors were full of outside firepower, West, Curry, and Hill hit three points in a row, and the Warriors stretched the difference to 9 points.
Adelman called a timeout and changed tactics, Yao Ming feinted to pass the outside line to let Weaver attack, this small coordination tactic is very effective, because Yao Ming involved the Warriors' inside line, he just left the box Evans and Ibaka had to wrap him, Weaver got space in the penalty area, broke through a strong score, and chased the difference to 4 points at once.
Now it was Nelson Sr.'s turn to call a timeout, he replaced Evans and let Chamberlain put on the court, Yao Ming quietly asked him: "Is the previous agreement still valid?" Chamberlain replied in a low and firm voice: "That must be!" ”
So, Chamberlain was in a hurry to make a move and ate another block from Yao Ming, and Artest shot a three-pointer after the offensive and defensive transition. Chamberlain showed an angry expression, and the basket singled into Yao Ming's hook hand, causing the Warriors fans to scream: "Die, reptile, get ready to meet the wrath of the gods!" You have angered the god Chamberlain! ”
The fans' prediction was good, the Rockets attacked, Artest passed Yao Ming to let him hit Chamberlain with his back, Yao Ming continued to use the step-back jumper, Chamberlain jumped on the spot like a helicopter and flew into the air, slapping his cap out of the three-point line.
Curry picked up the ball and scored a fast-break layup, and Chamberlain slapped his chest angrily and shouted, "This is a no-fly zone!" ”
Not long after his voice fell, Yao Ming and Alston came to a blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation, Chamberlain was attracted by the latter, Yao Ming cut two points above Curry's head, and Curry had no temper.
Yao Ming and Chamberlain's expressions were very solemn, and the group pulled out one after another to hand over the restricted area to two seven-foot men to solve, Billups said solemnly to Curry off the court: "Pass the ball to Z, he is about to explode!" Today is a confrontation of the center forwards, we are the supporting characters! ”
Chamberlain hit Yao Ming with his back and looked very hard, turned around and missed the hook to let Yao Ming grab the rebound, the Rockets also handed over the ball to Yao Ming, and when he turned around and hooked up for the layup, he encountered Chamberlain's block again, and the confrontation between the two was like Mars hitting the earth, and the roar of the fans in the Toyota Center was like rolling thunder and roaring, endlessly.
Not only did the fans watch the eyebrows, but the players also sighed, Mutombo shook his head and sighed: "Since the retirement of the four major centers, the traditional center matchup has disappeared in the NBA, I didn't expect to see this kind of game today, it's really lucky." ”
After that, Chamberlain made a layup and caused Yao Ming to foul and make two free throws, but then Yao Ming cut into the air, received Artest and hit a layup and caused Chamberlain to foul.
Chamberlain followed Curry to launch a fast-break layup, and immediately Yao Ming hit a hook shot in the restricted area, and the second quarter became a war between centers, and at the end of the first half, the Warriors entered the locker room with a seven-point advantage of 61-54.
