Chapter 954: Provoked a war
Chamberlain and Okafor jumped the ball, the latter was also a spring man, but unfortunately due to injury, his body was not as good as before.
Okafor's bounce speed was also very fast, but against Chamberlain, it was much worse, and Chamberlain jumped quickly and flicked the racket to West.
West got the ball and immediately pushed forward, for him, words like steady dìng calm do not exist at all, as a point guard, there are very few people who can be as good at advancing as him, D'Antoni admires such a point guard, and more than once praised West in New York, saying that he is a passionate and powerful guy.
Paul followed West, a pair of fast hands hanging calmly beside him, but no one dared to underestimate him, so far, he is the king of steals.
Although West was a little stunned to advance, he had one advantage, he was very selfless.
This is also what makes the head coaches of the league depressed, this thorn does not know what has changed in the Warriors, originally, West's personality is often associated with words such as unruly and withdrawn, and then the Warriors played the sixth man, he has changed a lot, but he is still very withdrawn on the court.
He's like a wolf, full of attacking power, but not social, that's why Nelson Sr. arranged for him to play as the sixth man instead of starting.
With the departure of Billups in the new season, West took the position of starting organization guard, and when he heard this arrangement at the beginning, the league was paralyzed with laughter.
As a result, they soon found that West had made them unhappy, and he suddenly changed his style of play this season, passing the ball frequently, especially to Oxlade-Chamberlain, which was better than Billups.
At the beginning, West rushed to the front court and gave the ball to Chamberlain, who used his strong body to resist Okafor, and after receiving the ball, he roared violently, turned to the side of Okafor, and crushed inward like a tank.
David West saw that things were not going well and hurried up to make up for it, while Okafor was also bloody and deadly behind.
But before David West arrived, Chamberlain slammed Okafor hard, and the latter couldn't withstand such a strange force and was pushed one step away.
Chamberlain, who was rampage like a king crab, after spotting the gap that Okafor had retreated to give way, accelerated like a loach, stepped over the opponent's defense, and rushed straight to the basket.
David West's supplementary defense was finally in place, he was chasing behind, and he was about to meet Okafor's bag to clamp Chamberlain, but Chamberlain came to a dragon swing tail, suddenly turned his head and ran out of the penalty area he had just entered, turned around and made a jumper, and hit steadily!
When the basketball went into the net, the Hornets fans couldn't help but applaud, and Chamberlain's return was so brilliant that even the opponent had to cheer for him: he showed the perfect combination of strength, speed, technique and confidence, and the confidence to turn around and shoot was impressive.
Paul smiled and reached for the ball, and West pounced on it as if he had seen a leopard of his prey.
His movements are not unpleasant, but there are not many threats to Paul, I saw Queen Bee's left hand holding the ball flung back, and his right hand took the ball while his sturdy body moved quickly sideways, like a cloud, easily broke West's steal threat, and at the same time accelerated, leading the team to start attacking.
Okafor covered in the high post, he blocked West roughly, David West ran in from the flank to attract attention, Paul took advantage of Okafor's cover to accelerate and run, it seemed to be to meet David West, and the Warriors defense immediately shrank inside.
As a result, the Warriors' outside line was slack, and no one noticed that the Hornets were ambushed outside the three-point line on the left foot.
Paul seemed to be stepping on Hot Wheels all the way to the inside, with a flick of his arm, the basketball was like a cannonball, and it fell directly into the hands of Ariza outside the three-point line.
Ariza is nicknamed the Iron Gate by Chinese fans – and Tiezha.
His defense is very good, but the offense is much worse, and the three-point shot is one of his offensive methods that needs to be strengthened, and in the face of the opponent's misplaced defense in the game, Ariza cannot use his height and speed advantage to deal with it calmly, and the open shooting and free throws cannot provide the team with a stable shooting rate.
In the 2009-10 season, Ariza shot just 39 from the field. 4 percent, the second-to-last in the league, and his three-point shooting percentage is just 33. 4%, which is very substandard for a small forward.
However, that doesn't mean he doesn't threaten his open threes, and in fact, if he doesn't threaten the ball, Paul won't pass the ball to him.
The hand rises and falls, and the three points are successful.
Chamberlain had an interested look on his face, he looked at Paul and said, "The ball is a good pass." ”
Paul shrugged, smiled, and didn't reply.
West controlled the ball and ran forward, while laughing arrogantly at Chamberlain: "Z, this guy looks down on you!" ”
Chamberlain snorted coldly and said, "Then let me teach him a lesson!" ”
Under the nervous gaze of Okafor and David West, Chamberlain did not enter the interior line, he asked for the ball directly in the high post, West waved his hand, the Warriors pulled away, and Okafor rushed up in a hurry to block Chamberlain in the back.
Chamberlain leaned over Okafor with his butt, and when he got the ball, he shook his shoulders and made a gesture to turn and break through.
Okafor is unmoved, he is also a master of defense, and in his first three seasons in the league, the defensive end is no worse than that of Howard, the champion of his class.
Seeing that the other party was not shaking, Chamberlain immediately took his left foot as the central foot, turned around and stepped out in one step, and his body was about to jump as soon as he was short.
This time Okafor couldn't be unmoved, he quickly cut sideways and spread his arms to block.
At the moment when he activated, Chamberlain quickly pulled back his right foot and turned again. However, this time he slapped the ball with his left foot, directly staggered Okafor's defense, and held the ball to the inside.
Okafor was shocked and wanted to go to the card position but he was powerless, and he had been thrown away.
Along the flank vacancy, Chamberlain was like a scalpel in the hands of a famous doctor, sharply inserting into the inside line of the Hornets, unstoppable.
Seeing this, David West flicked his arms hard and chased in, and he returned to Chamberlain's side in time, but the latter didn't care, and still rushed forward firmly.
West followed Chamberlain all the way into the penalty area, following him all the time, reaching out and waving to make a block.
Chamberlain smiled coldly, and after rushing into the inner line, he stepped on the floor with both feet, and the calf muscle lines seemed to be carved by a master carver, full of a fiery sense of power.
David West was ready to defend, but there was a big difference between the two bodies, Chamberlain flew up as soon as he stomped on the ground, David West just wanted to jump along, but Chamberlain had already risen from the ground, and his waist and abdomen were almost directly on top of his head.
David West didn't have time to jump, and watched in amazement as a dark cloud came down his head, and Chamberlain just stood up to him, rushed to the basket and waved his arms angrily.
"Give me death!" With a roar like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Chamberlain turned sideways to the rebound, twisted his head to look directly at the hoop, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and the muscles on his arm were raised and the muscles were exposed, just like a thunderball in the mouth of a dragon, and the basketball was smashed into the hoop with a bang.
The basketball hoop shook, Chamberlain grabbed the hoop with both hands, and his body shook and hit David West, who was stunned and almost knocked down.
The stadium suddenly resounded with a landslide and tsunami cheers, and even the Hornets fans chanted, this kind of goal can break through the limits of the team's barriers, manipulate people's adrenaline, and make people jump and roar.
After all, the Hornets are also the best in the West, and even this season they are the top teams that can form a three-country situation with the Warriors and Lakers, and Chamberlain's dunk did not disrupt their deployment, especially since they also have a top point guard Chris Paul.
Paul first stabilized his teammates' feelings, and then he knew that he had to play a beautiful counterattack next, otherwise Chamberlain's violent dunk would still have a great impact on the team's morale.
Chamberlain understood this, and he quickly returned to stay in the penalty area, pointing at West and yelling, "Mad dog, look at him!" ”
Paul's gaze was as cold as a blade, and he rushed forward quickly after holding the ball in his hand, and West followed him sideways like a hungry wolf smelling meat.
Holding the ball and rushing to the three-point line, Paul waved his big hand and braked suddenly, West's energetic body was shown at this moment, he gritted his teeth and stuck his body to ensure that he would not lose position, and when Queen Bee picked up speed again, he followed again.
After making several breakthroughs in a row without success, Paul's expression was ugly, and as a playmaker, he couldn't afford to waste time, because the longer the ball was in his hands, the less his teammates could play, and Chamberlain was ready to wrap him up, so Paul could only pass the ball to Ariza.
Ariza is not good at attacking, not to mention his unreliable mid-range and long-range shots, just talking about breaking through with the ball, which is also not qualified, his threat on the offensive end is mainly air cuts, because his body is full of energy and energy, so he can constantly run through guò to find open space to score.
After getting the ball, Carter took a step back and went sideways to chase David West.
Sure enough, Ariza dribbled a few steps and didn't make a shot of his own, instead passing the ball to David West.
Carter got in the way of David West, who tried to run him over and pushed sideways in. Carter didn't back down, he stuck David with his chest, and did his best to resist him and not let him advance to the basket.
Of course, this is impossible, after all, one is a power forward and the other is a guard, David knocked Carter into the box with a few pushes, then put away the ball, stomped his feet and flew up, and threw his arm to make a dashing shot.
A figure rushed in with lightning speed, and a big hand blocked the way of the basketball like a precise positioning missile, and the basketball was capped out with a muffled sound.
“SUPER-Z!” The cheers of the Warriors fans rang out one after another, and Chamberlain responded with a smile and a wave of his arms, the big hat just now was his style.
The Hornets re-served, and Chamberlain slapped Carter on the ass and said, "Good defense, Vince, you're the best defensive player!" ”
Carter laughed and said as he followed Thorton's defense, "I don't want to be the best defensive player, you better do it, I don't want to be crushed by your group of muscles!" ”
Paul finally decided to attack on his own, Ariza came up to help him make a cover, and at the moment when West was blocked, Paul rushed out like a poisonous snake, 'whoosh', Chamberlain hurriedly made up for the defense, but Paul stopped sharply and shot from outside the three-point line-
Hit!
This is the terrible first point guard, who can not only knead the whole team to participate in the offense, but also attack and play a piece of the world by himself.
Chamberlain smiled and attacked again, waving his hand inside and yelling, "Give me the ball!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the Hornets suddenly tightened, this was a knee-jerk reaction, and Chamberlain had this deterrent effect.
West quickly passed the ball to Chamberlain, Okafor and David West immediately rushed up and clamped him, at this moment, Chamberlain's face suddenly showed a sly smile, his arm flung back, and a figure slipped the bottom line and cut into the basket, got the ball and turned over like a Raptor, and it was a dunk.
Ibaka dunks to the ground and roars to the sky!
