Chapter 157: David (Fifth Shift)
Min Congda's court feels really top-notch, this thing is purely natural, and it is difficult to cultivate the day after tomorrow.
This may be related to some ancient genes in the human body, and some groups that are good at hunting have a keen sense of smell during this confrontation, can sense the danger coming, or seize the right killing opportunity.
Although modern human society has long been separated from the fishing and hunting civilization, these genes have been passed down and play a vital role in many fields, especially in the field of sports events.
Before the crossing, Min Congda was just a bank clerk, and he never had the opportunity to receive a good physical education in his life, and this talent was buried.
Traveling to the United States, his talent seems to have been buried...... This thing doesn't use his ability in the right way, and thinks about backstabbing the owner all day long.
At the next moment when Min Congda felt in danger, Curry blocked and Gasol in the high post, and O'Neal couldn't prevent it at all.
Direct three-point shot at the top of the arc and easy hit!
88:87, only 1 point difference!
Curry's style of play, which throws three points directly at the top of the arc after a block, is not much in the league at the moment.
If you don't come to this way, the other party really has no choice, and most of the time he turns his head to grab rebounds.
But Curry is really accurate, and his three-point shooting percentage has reached 43% in his rookie season.
He averaged five shots per game.
Ray Allen, the best three-point shooter in history, is currently shooting 43% from three-point range in his career.
This season, his three-point shooting percentage has dropped to 36%, and his form is not very good.
So, Curry has shown terrible qualities in the three-point shot.
But this has not attracted too many people's attention, because the power of inertia is powerful.
Starting with Michael Jordan, the standard of perfection for an outside player was laid out.
Super breakthrough ability, waist and abdominal strength that can pull the rod, and kill the inside line at critical moments.
An unsolvable mid-range jumper that can kill an opponent when the interior is full of muscle sticks.
Pointers? That's just the icing on the cake and the work that the role players are going to do.
A player who is good at shooting can only be a supporting role, and a team that is good at shooting can't go to the end.
It's an iron law that began after Jordan ruled the league in 1991, and this philosophy has nourished a generation.
The young fans who grew up in that era, and the best of them became stars, all shaped themselves with this philosophy.
Kobe Bryant is undoubtedly the best and most successful of them all, close to a perfect replica of Jordan.
Now that Kobe Bryant rules the league, there is no doubt that this criterion is correct.
It has been repeated and emphasized over and over again by different coaches, commentators, experts, and even the fans themselves.
But they forget, before Jordan ruled the NBA? Who rules this alliance?
Two all-round players with average breaks, super passing, super shooting, mid-to-upper physical fitness, and extremely high ball quotient.
Before that, it was an inside monster and the king of the three-second zone.
When Jordan first entered the league, it was also thought impossible to win a championship, and he wasn't even a top pick.
In the end, the Chicago Bulls are the only team in history to win a championship without a super inside.
Standards are always broken, but until they are broken by a genius, they are always considered to be the golden rule.
When the old is broken and the new is established, over time, the new standard becomes the unbreakable old standard again.
Curry hasn't been able to break that bar, and the Cavaliers still hold a one-point lead.
James personally held the ball through the half, facing Thorton's defense, he simply ignored it.
Straight to the basket in the middle, before Gasol Jr. hesitated to close the door, the hot knife smeared butter under the basket and made an easy layup.
James' layup is unusually solid, and in the air you are pulling or pulling, and you will send him to the free throw line and1.
Randolph and Gasol Jr. are very smart and don't have cheap hands, let's go in, the 3-point difference, isn't it a round to come back!
A quick serve to Curry, Curry passed half court, still covering in the high post, this time it was Randolph.
One cover was not enough, the Cavaliers stepped up, and Gasol Jr. made another cover and came to the left 45 degrees.
Curry adjusted his posture slightly, the gunner was fast, and the three-point shot again, and the ball drew a high arc and hit again!
90:90, the two sides are tied!
Curry's two easy-picked three-pointers in a row brought the two sides back to the same running line.
Min Congda let out a long sigh and thought to himself, "Why don't you basketball head coaches have no sense of smell on the court at all?" Circling around the basketball every day, is the braised egg on the neck all yellow? ”
Min Congda has really wronged others, even if he has a sense of smell, it is impossible to call a timeout without starting the fight.
The only one who can do this is Popovich, who is not satisfied with the opening round and calls a timeout if he feels wrong.
But that person also has to play for a round, and if you don't fight in a round, you will be called a timeout...... If Min Congda had become a coach, he might have done something.
With two three-pointers, Curry took his scoring to 20 points.
Don't underestimate that the three-point shot is just one point more than the two-point shot, and in incremental terms, the three-point shot is 50 percent higher than the two-point shot.
This kind of increment adds up to a terrifying reflection of the final total score.
The two rounds erased the difference, and the pressure came to James' shoulders.
The Clippers' defense shrank across the board, forcing James to miss a mid-range jumper.
When Curry got the ball again, the whole Cavaliers felt nervous.
Scoring two three-pointers in a row is completely different from scoring two two-pointers in a row.
Dribbling to the frontcourt, the Cavaliers defenders began to press for half court, but Curry was unaffected.
Dexterous dribbling, taking advantage of teammates' cover, and passing to Randolph before the pack comes.
Randolph caught the ball under the basket and turned around and hit an easy hook shot, scoring two points, and the Clippers overtook him!
A wave of efficient offense, a small climax of 8:2, beat the knight to a timeout.
"RNM, do you have to call a pause at this time, don't you know how to prevent it from happening?"
Min Congda was very unpleasant when he saw Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown, and scolded in his heart, not even as good as Lao Deng.
After the timeout, the Cavaliers strengthened their defense against Curry, close to each other, while James assisted in the defense.
Both teams each wasted a chance, and Curry's outside ball breakthrough was blocked by a big hat rushed from behind James!
The ball flew off the baseline, and James flexed his muscles to the audience and Curry.
Curry was expressionless, sideline ball tactics, and the Clippers played an Indiana match.
Curry circled 45 degrees to the outside and, through a series of runs, received a pass from Gasol Jr.
James rushed towards him again, but Curry made a decisive three-point shot, and the big hat just now did not affect his determination to shoot at all!
The ball almost grazed James's fingertips and flew to the basket, a perfect arc, and once again penetrated into the center of the Cavaliers' basket!
The third three-pointer of the fourth quarter, the fifth three-pointer of the game!
After the goal, Curry held his shooting hand in front of James for a moment and shook his head.
At 90:95, the Clippers led by five points.
At this time, Siakam Jr., who was sitting in the stands, was stunned by Curry's consecutive three-pointers.
Looking at Curry's outstretched arm as he shot, he thought of the biblical story of David defeating the giant Goliath with a catapult.
"Out of the camp of the Philistines came a man of war, named Goliath, six cubits and one muzzles. He wore a bronze helmet and armor, and his armor weighed five thousand shekels. There are copper knee pads on the legs, and a copper halberd on the shoulders. The shaft of the spear was as thick as the shaft of a woven cloth, and the iron head weighed six hundred shekels...... David took a stone out of his sack with his hand, shook it with a string, and struck the Philistines on the forehead, and when the stone entered into his forehead, he fell down and fell on his face to the ground. So David threw the stone with a string and overcame the Philistines. But David had no sword in his hand. —Old Testament, 1 Samuel, chapter 17.
The game against the Cavaliers should be over in two or three chapters. In fact, I didn't want to write too long about this game, and I wrote three chapters to follow the plot, but Lao Zhan could write too many places, and I didn't catch it at once.
