Chapter 70: Basketball Contradictions (10,000-Word Chapter)
Since the new Kobe Bryant was shown off by Li You in the Rookie Challenge, he has been practicing hard since he returned to the team, and he still has some nostalgia for not winning the mVp of the Rookie Challenge.
Although he won the dunk king, Silver Fox Harris still didn't buy it, and after the All-Star weekend, he didn't give Kobe Bryant much playing time.
In contrast, after O'Neal's injury, Lee's good friend Travis Knight was given some opportunities.
The game against the Knicks entered the second half of the second quarter, and Van Exel, who had calmed down, regained the rhythm of the game.
There is no need to block and dismantle the top of the arc, and the moment the ball in his left hand suddenly lowers the center of gravity of his body and shakes to the left, Van Exel completes the change of direction in front of his body.
Noticing that Li You followed the sliding step, he immediately pulled the ball back when he switched to his right hand, turned around after pretending, and then suddenly twisted forward, Van Ecel lowered his center of gravity again, stopped sharply, accelerated with all his might, and instantly broke through Li You's defense.
Both Charles Oakley and Patrick Ewing began to retract, and with Lee Yow sliding into the paint area, it instantly became a threesome.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Van Ecxel watched his team-mate's position in the air and finally passed the ball out of the gap.
Substitute center Sean Lukes received the ball on the bottom left of the basket and just wanted to put it down, only to be pulled down by Oakley, who turned back to the defense.
"Squeak!"
"These media aren't really going to give mVp to anyone else, are they? 49-6, such a record of the Bulls, Michael Jordan can't win the award? ”
"Still not smart enough to not play away from Salt Lake City, just invincible!"
101:106, the Jazz successfully pulled one back!
"We have a 44-11 record, so why doesn't anyone say that the Knicks are going to win the mVp?"
Rod Hunter, the home commentator of the Jazz team, saw that Malone had been playing iron after hitting two shots after the opening, and he could only comment helplessly.
"Like this fight, let Pat finish instead of attacking from him all the time."
"Hell! He made 11 free throws in the 4th quarter and fouled when he touched it! ”
After half-time, Van Eccel noticed Charles Oakley moving to the top of the arc and quickly adjusted his center of gravity to squeeze past the screen.
Commentator Rod Hunter is also anxious, this Salt Lake City fan wants to help Malone win the award, this game can't be lost...
8-of-25 from the field, 11-of-17 from the free-throw line, Ewing slashed 27 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks and 4 turnovers!
The protagonists of this game are naturally Malone and Ewing, but the scene of each other under the basket did not happen, Malone jumped, Ewing also jumped...
Li You, who was beside him, listened to Alan Houston's words and just smiled, and he knew in his heart:
Charles Oakley and Ewing scolded the referee when they returned to the locker room, and after scolding the referee, they scolded Stockton:
Ewing scored 11 points on 4-of-9 shooting and 3-of-4 free throws in the half, and the gorilla drank wildly in his seat holding a water bottle before finally compromising on the sidelines:
Ewing sent a pass, Stockton just wanted to make up for the defense, but Li You didn't make any adjustments, and threw the ball away!
Jeff Van Gundy had no choice but to raise his voice, crouched in front of everyone, and loudly reminded the rotation lineup not to play blindly...
The opportunity for the new Kobe Bryant has finally arrived, but unfortunately, the game seems to be going into garbage time.
After completing the pass, he immediately moved, and "Big Mom" took advantage of the situation to go over to cover Li You.
"Shhhhh
Everyone agrees with Li You's words, the atmosphere group naturally wants more playing time, and Jeff Van Gundy's recent stubbornness has shrunk the number of people on the bench.
Just two minutes after returning to the bench, Larry Johnson was also off the court to be with Lee Woo.
11 of 22, 6 of 8 free throws, 28 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks and 4 turnovers, and Ewing also broke a big double-double in key games!
"We didn't need to change our tactics too much, we just had to play in one quarter of the game."
Stockton noticed the movement behind him, and did not make any unnecessary moves, and immediately chose to step forward to defend, ready to squeeze through the cover at any time.
It's just that such a move is destined to anger Mai Buckle again, killing three birds with one stone, and the sports program in the morning is all about mVp.
Obviously, the media momentum has affected Ma Long's mentality, and he is really going to be killed by Ewing, coupled with the Knicks' record, there is a high probability that the mVp will be gone...
This kind of award is too far away from the Knicks, Ewing is obviously playing in New York, but he is not very well received by the media, and in recent years, he has even buttoned the hat of a soft egg on the gorilla's head...
This is not the first time this has happened, and everyone in the Knicks team has been prepared for a long time, and Lee Woo on the left wing quickly cut in at 45 degrees without the ball.
After the start of the second half, the two sides were completely deadlocked, until the Jazz suddenly started to rain...
With his right hand to catch the ball again, Li You completely got rid of the defense and held the ball to the basket!
Unlike Van Gundy, who often has defenders to lead the defence, most teams don't choose this defensive strategy.
"Carl Malone doesn't deserve an mVp! ...”
On the left flank, Li You pointed to the left blocking area with his right hand, and Ewing understood and moved up from a low position.
Knight first pretended to be in the low post with his back to the ball, then suddenly turned around and cut into the basket without the ball, and Campbell immediately sent a pass from the free throw line.
Van Axel kept an eye on the movement behind him at the top of the arc, but Li You didn't make much movement, just simply sent a through ball.
Li You watched the ESpN ball critic on the TV without mentioning Jordan's mVp at all, and suddenly felt a little funny, per capita arch fire little expert...
After receiving the ball, he put the ball with his right hand, and immediately turned to the baseline after hitting it, Ewing stuck Knight behind him, and just wanted to complete the basket, but found that Sean Luke also contracted the defense.
"Protect our backcourt rebounds, there are two big men of 2.10m on the opposite side, don't give the opponent a second chance to attack."
With 4:26 left in the fourth quarter, Stockton broke through for a layup, causing Lee to foul.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Lakers took the lead in attacking, perhaps the half of the game was fed, and the cheers on the scene were gone.
"Boom!!" Hit the basket with a dunk!
As the game ticked, the Lakers fans at the scene found that the Knicks were gradually blossoming more, and "Big Mom" even showed her low-post skills, easily scoring points on Jeromy Colesi's head for two consecutive rounds.
While Van Axel was about to squeeze past the cover, Li You quickly changed direction under his crotch, and at the same time, lowered his body's center of gravity, opened his shoulders, and switched to his left hand to accelerate the breakthrough.
Ostertag noticed Ewing move to the top of the arc to block and kick it out, but he had to bite the bullet and defend it.
The shouting and scolding at the scene is getting louder and louder, and if this game is lost, everyone in the Jazz team will have to break the defense collectively.
After receiving Li You's high hanging pass, Ewing did not rush to attack, at this time Li You pretended to cut without the ball, came to the blocking position and suddenly made a force with his feet, and quickly bounced to the bottom left corner.
Lose in New York, go back to home, and win back!
Li You, who accelerated the breakthrough, did not force a layup against the defense of the two, broke through to the left blocking area, and immediately sent a behind-the-ground pass.
Not only has Karl Malone not slipped this season, but the call for mVp is getting louder and louder!
On the Lakers' on-site commentary bench, Cheek Hearn's voice revealed a depressed mood, the Knicks' interior defense was too fierce, and the new twin towers were frequently deflated.
One seeks speed, the other seeks stability, perhaps due to frequent physical contact, both sides are striking...
On the Knicks bench, seeing the rookie behaving like this, everyone followed the smile and waved the towel in celebration.
In such an anxious game, the Jazz fans at the scene were so excited that they screamed, and more and more of them spat fragrantly.
At 50:50, after half-time, the two sides were still tied.
In the end, the Jazz had the last laugh in this battle involving the focus of the mVp.
Fortunately, this time, Eddie Jones' two-point stop on the left flank finally made the Los Angeles fans cheer.
"Maybe everyone is happy to see that he didn't win the award."
At 91:73, there was no more suspense in the game.
With a visually striking block, the fans exclaimed again, took advantage of the situation to control the ball, and Ewing immediately gave the ball to Li You.
When the grades are good, there will naturally be more desires, everyone wants to get mVp, and Ewing also wants to get more impression points.
The victory was a joyful experience, and although they still had to fly to Salt Lake City, the Knicks had fully recovered from the defeat.
Van Eccel has been on the floor since the start of the fourth quarter, but perhaps with a halftime adjustment, he is no longer shooting three-pointers as he did in the first quarter.
The batter fouled, the referee pointed to the free throw line, and Oakley didn't care, and it was his second foul.
"The media of this shit is a double standard, and if you look at the record, the mVp must belong to the Bulls players."
Seeing that "Auntie" didn't believe his words at all, Li You didn't refute it, he also liked to have fun.
The Bulls will definitely not be able to catch up, these old guys are very stable, but if they lose the division championship, no one will look good on their faces.
Van Exaul was ready to step forward to defend the moment Ewing stood still, and Li You, who was holding the ball in his left hand, first exploded the ball vigorously on the spot, and then circled the ball sharply behind his back.
Jazz fans let out an exclamation, and before everyone could see what was going on, Stockton collided with Ostertag.
Ewing scored easily, and Coach Harris on the sidelines began shouting out to Knight to signal him to be on guard.
The big lead finally allowed everyone in the Knicks to recover from the fiasco, and the bench returned to the joyful atmosphere of the past.
"Lee, great performance, from the second quarter, we completely controlled the pace of the game, against an All-Star caliber guard, playing like this, you are our MVP tonight!"
On the evening of the 25th, enthusiastic Salt Lake City fans entered the Delta Center Arena early, and before the game started, the scene had already resounded with shouting.
Ewing just stood still, taking advantage of Stockton to step forward to defend, Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, wrapped the ball around his back sharply, and at the moment when he grabbed the ball with his left hand, he took advantage of the situation to lead the ball forward.
Visible to the naked eye to improve efficiency, Jeff Van Gundy naturally wants to take this opportunity to do more encouragement...
After receiving the ball, he didn't make any adjustments, and Alan Hughes hit a mid-range jumper!
With only 40 points in the half, the Lakers fed the Los Angeles fans at the scene...
"It would be nice if we played like this in the future, tonight is the best game in recent times."
However, both of them were for scoring, and the gorilla who completed the dunk also roared, and then high-fived Li You in celebration.
"God! Li feels hot tonight! Hit a three-pointer again! ”
There were more and more confrontations, and there were constant small movements of pulling, but in the final minutes of the first half, both teams played efficient attacks at the same time.
'We've got to keep the lead, two wins, it's really not much.'
Ewing also took the lemon and said sourly, they have hope to get 60+ wins this season!
...
The two were entangled after the opening, and Malone wanted to show himself too much, but failed to grasp a few opportunities to score easily.
Van Ecxel, who felt that he had lost face, threw down his towel after the game and walked directly to the dressing room.
'We've got to play a little bit easier and have back-to-back games away from home.
Larry Johnson bored to Lee You's room to chat and fart:
In the case of poor hand, Coach Harris will not let the small guard shoot indiscriminately, and chooses to play from the inside.
The gorilla at the peak tail is no longer the super center that can easily score after getting stuck in the low post on the left side, throwing from the top and turning off the line.
In the moment of hesitation, Ewing failed to get the ball out in time, was almost wrapped by the opponent, and finally turned around and returned the ball to Oakley, who came to the free throw line to answer.
Several veterans also sighed in their hearts that if the mVp doesn't consider the button, then it will be Ewing's turn.
When it was fatal, Lee Woo left the court with 6 fouls, and the Jazz fans at the scene were cheering loudly, but Jeff Van Gundy did not accept such a result:
"Huh!" The two-pointer hit the ball steadily.
Li You, who changed into his jersey, didn't say anything, this topic can't be talked about, just the Knicks' "iron-blooded" style of play, if you can't beat it, you will put down the opponent, and you are destined to be unwelcome...
"You're a head coach, why don't you dare to fight with the gorillas..."
In the second half, he shot a total of twice, Van Axel was already depressed, and when he heard Li You's words again, his heart was even more angry.
The Jazz fans continued to make loud noises, and after receiving the pass, Lee Woo was unaffected, holding the ball in his left hand and dribbling sideways across the half court.
8:6, when there were 7 minutes and 24 seconds left in the first quarter, the Knicks took the lead in breaking the deadlock after the opening of the game.
"Big Mom" doesn't believe that mVp will be transferred to other people, and thinks that gorillas are all self-delusions.
“...”
Van Eccel no longer chooses to lead the defense, but follows his teammates to retreat quickly.
The Pippen successor was also blacksmithed in the first half and was put in a big step by Alan Houston.
Assistant coach Thibodeau nodded when he heard Li You's two words, and many times, Knicks tactics are formulated by assistant coaches.
"Huh!" Solid mid-range hits.
"Losing this game, the record is 38-17, and we may lose the top spot in the West!"
Seeing that the point difference was widened again, Cheek Hearn on the commentary bench was also out of emotion, and this nearly 24-second score completely ruined the rhythm of the Lakers.
The NbA league and the media who are doing things seem to want to give Mai a pill, and the matter of the top 50 superstars is not so easy to pass.
"Unless it's a big opening, don't think about attacking me, I haven't recovered from the SuperSonics yet."
It's useless for the Bulls to have a far lead, the mVp is voted for by the media!
The Utah Jazz have been getting better this season and are currently 38-15 with two games less than the Lakers.
"It's not our rhythm of the game, I'm kind of missing the big guys!"
"Stockton passes the ball to Malone, oh! This attack was too impatient! ”
The audience at the scene saw Li You take off his training uniform and prepare to continue on the stage, and they were also in spirit for a while, and some Chinese fans held slogans and continued to cheer loudly.
"Maybe everyone is aesthetically tired, after all, Mai Buckle has won too much!"
"I'm used to being looked down upon, how many times have teams in the West played against the Bulls? They don't know anything but look at the data. ”
In the first round, Van Exel gave the ball to center Campbell at the free-throw line just over half-time.
After playing the first quarter, Li You changed into training clothes, ignored the shouting and scolding on the scene, and sat on the bench with a calm expression.
After the basketball rebounded, it fell accurately into the hand of Ewing in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line, and there was no one in front of him.
On the morning of the 26th, the media in New York and Salt Lake City had already quarreled, and ESpN and tNt also joined in the fun, and everyone had their own opinions and discussed the ownership of mVp.
Jeff Van Gundy is mainly responsible for chicken soup, occasionally involved in building the defensive system, and spends most of the rest of his time taking care of his hair.
If you want to select mVp, it naturally depends on the record of the two.
At this time, Li You, who was sitting on the bench, was communicating with the coaching staff:
"Illegal cover! He definitely fouled! ”
"Look, my player didn't make any defensive moves at all, he even got out of the way!"
Although the opponent was 1-of-5 in the first quarter, he still had to defend against outside projection.
In the last two rounds, Van Ecxel forced a basket and walked to the free throw line again.
This game is indeed crucial, if the Jazz are doubled, with the current record, Ewing may still be able to stop Malone.
Ewing, who is no longer a head-on, is either a jumper in the left and right elbows of the free throw line, or a cake throw in the left and right near the baseline.
No one can resist the temptation of mVp, and the Gorilla just wants to win at this time, and he will admit it all when he is a pie forward.
The Lakers who walked to the locker room were not in a beautiful mood, and the new Kobe Bryant just wanted to know why he couldn't play.
"God! Lee's shot was so fast that Stockton didn't even have time to make a block! ”
The basketball fell accurately into the hands of Oakley near the baseline on the left side, unguarded in front of him, and shot a mid-range jumper after aiming at the basket!
Sean Lukes hit both free throws to give the Lakers 39 points before halftime.
It's almost the same offensive option, except that Lee's pass is converted into a dunk.
Receiving the ball on the bottom line, taking advantage of Van Exel's close defense to his side, Li You whispered and teased Fan Maniac who judged the two in the first and second halves.
Li You, who was holding the ball in his left hand, did not accelerate with all his strength at this time, slowed down the pace of dribbling, and spent half the court with his teammates.
"Such a penalty will ultimately affect the result of the game!"
"Keep the pace of the game, John, don't rush to attack when you get on the court!"
Compared with the first meeting, Li You played more steadily tonight, no longer pursued speed, and with the cooperation of the Knicks team, he was more dangerous without the ball.
With 4 minutes and 58 seconds left in the first half, the score came to 36:36, and the two sides were tied.
provoked the fans to scold, and Li You, who quickly retreated, high-fived Ewing to celebrate.
It was not easy to communicate too much during the game, and after Li You briefly expressed his opinion, he didn't say anything more.
"Oh!!"
After the start of the game, Karl Malone was extremely active, and seemed to regard Ewing as a competitor to the mVp, and Malone frequently made iron-blooded jump shots after the opening! Make an effort to express yourself.
Jeff Van Gundy always gave the players some time to communicate, and after entering the locker room, he didn't talk about how to adjust, but repeatedly emphasized:
The game time flew by, and as the final hum sounded, at 101:85, the Knicks defeated the Lakers and avoided the embarrassing situation of being killed by the opponent.
Back-to-back games, the coaching staff canceled training sessions, Ewing sulked in the hotel, Oakley and Starks could only comfort him...
Li You is different from Kobe, he is already an "All-Star" player, and after returning to the locker room, he showed seriousness and put forward his own opinion:
"Shh
The Knicks' offense completely abandoned Ewing's low post, and the Gorillas began to take more cover.
Coach Harris took in George McLeod in the hope that he could help him on offense, but soon, Lakers commentator Cheek Hearn gave the answer:
"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!
"Shut up, rookie, don't think you're really an All-Star!"
Li You was 7-of-11, 4-of-6 from beyond the three-point line, and 3-of-3 from the free throw line, and quietly got 21 points, 2 rebounds, 10 assists, 1 steal and 3 turnovers.
Li You and his teammates walked to the players' tunnel with laughter and laughter, and the best way to heal after the fiasco is to give the opponent a fiasco.
As a traditional center with comprehensive skills, Ewing can do blocking and dismantling, and responding can do it, and many times it is a matter of willingness.
“...”
After the game, Li You, who was fishing, watched the gorilla angrily walk towards the players' tunnel, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
"How about letting him shoot threes? When you get to the inside line, put him down, fall a few times, and make sure that he doesn't feel at all! ”
While everyone on the Knicks walked to the players' tunnel, the Los Angeles fans who felt like they were eating were booing again.
At 104:95, the Knicks suppressed the Trail Blazers all over the court and won back-to-back victories.
Stockton was still expressionless, but looked at Li You for a while.
Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines kept clapping his hands, signaling that Li Youchuan was beautiful.
Van Exaul, who was on his side, didn't lose his defensive position, but the Lakers' defense began to shrink again.
With 5:48 left in the fourth quarter, Jeff Van Gundy beckoned Lee to continue playing, and as long as they steady their rhythm and respond well, they could claim victory tonight.
Malone actively participated in the fast game, but failed to do it several times, and Oakley was on the bar with the opponent.
According to the usual routine, Ewing should have received the ball with his back in the low post on the left side, and then the gorilla would have played with his back in his favorite position.
At the end of the first quarter, at 24:21, the Knicks led by three points.
The Knicks spun the ball around, still on the outside, and the fans at the scene booed, and after receiving the ball, Li You first raised the ball and shook it, then put the ball with his left hand, and used the cover of "Big Mom" to quickly move to the left wing.
One relied on his speed to go straight, and the other used the projection threat to dangle at a slow pace.
Seeing that the first half of the game was about to end, Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines signaled to be steady, and Li Youbi made a tactical gesture to play a low post attack first.
"Perfect victory! Forget the last game, tonight we played our best attack in a row on the road! ”
The mVp was awarded to the Bulls with better results, and he had nothing to say, but Karl Malone won the award? The gorilla is not convinced...
Although these are all bad ideas, Li You is in a good mood, if he can compromise once, there will definitely be a second time!
Alan Houston also played well in the first quarter of the game, hitting consecutive shots in the second half of the game, and suddenly sighed:
"We still have a chance, the lads seem to have found their shooting touch!"
Karl Malone, who was unusually positive, immediately let go of Oakley on his side and quickly assisted in defense, but just moved to the basket and broke through to the paint area Li You's hidden back throw!
At the same time as Larry Johnson received the ball, Ewing also came to the right low post, and "Big Mom" did not choose to pass the ball high, but returned the ball to Li You in the bottom right corner.
Neither Lee You nor Larry Johnson grabbed the bald young marshal, and could only watch their head coach blow himself up.
Li You didn't follow the blind fight, as long as Ewing cooperated, he frequently played a high block and dismantled, and put the opponent's big center Ostatgra to the line.
Back-to-back games, angry gorillas slam the Trail Blazers inside...
The scene of "turning the tide" will not appear at all, and Kobe Bryant, who returned to the bench, can only watch the Lakers playing with depression, and secretly write down this account in his heart, which has been done twice...
If it weren't for the division championship, he wouldn't want to go against the gorillas so early.
3 of 11, 1 of 7 from beyond the three-point line, 2 of 3 free throws, 9 points, 2 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 turnovers.
There were cheers at the scene, the referee didn't say anything, Oakley smiled at Van Exel provocatively, Fan Maniac was almost angry, stared at his big eyes, turned his head and complained loudly to the referee:
In Li You's opinion, it is very outrageous to ask that every attack pass Ewing's hand first.
Breaking away from the baseline position, Li You, who held the ball in his left hand, suddenly went out quickly on the left flank, shook right and left, suddenly accelerated, and went straight to the inside.
Soon the protagonists on the court became Stockton and Lee You, who were responsible for passing the ball and whether they could score easily, and many times it was to see how the point guard handled the ball.
Starks, who rotated on the court, seized the opportunity and caused a foul on Kobe Bryant's beater on the counterattack.
The Jazz fans are cheering on the defense louder and louder, trying to disrupt the Knicks' offense with loud noise.
“oh! Take back the words we had before, we are still striking iron! ”
On the evening of the 26th, assistant coach Don Chaney replaced Van Gundy on the sidelines.
On the defensive end, Lee Woo could clearly feel that Van Exel's aggressiveness was decreasing, and the Lakers shifted the offensive task to Eddie Jones.
With 1 minute and 23 seconds left in the second quarter, 46:37, the Lakers' offense was still stretched.
"When he goes to the basket, give him two shots, foul him early, and don't let him pass the ball!"
The atmosphere group also came up with ideas, and in these two games, it was difficult to limit Gary Payton and Van Eccel on the line:
At 51:40, the Great Western Forum Arena was a little quiet, and the game was not good.
Starks also knew the importance of this game, so he naturally nodded in agreement.
Van Axel, who was squeezing past the cover, was pushed down by the old guy on the thigh and lost the defensive position at once, Li You shook off the defense, came to the right wing, and made a quick jump shot after a quick stop outside the three-point line.
Playing 39 minutes, 5-of-12, 2-of-5 from beyond the three-point line, 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, 14 points, 2 rebounds, 11 assists, 1 steal and 2 turnovers, Lee Woo once again hit a double-double.
“pat! Spread beautifully! ”
In the commentary booth, Loftus-Cheek Hearn rarely showed excitement, and the Lakers scored very rarely even in sports games tonight.
Watching the gorilla give a passionate speech in the locker room, Li You also followed everyone to slap his ass:
"Lee, after you get on the field, do the finishing touches!"
"Aesthetic fatigue? What is that? What else is basketball talking about? Lee, don't be deceived by those unscrupulous media, they will vote obediently when the time comes! ”
This penalty completely annoyed everyone on the Knicks, and Jeff Van Gundy "Farke" spoke out and was directly ejected...
Knight noticed that Lee You's weight was pressed very low and was about to fly close to the ground, and hurriedly slid to the right rear in an attempt to make a delay.
At the end of the game, Charles Oakley angrily spurred on Karl Malone, and the two started a fierce war of words:
It wasn't Ewing's intention to eat bread easily, after all, it was a new player who was playing against him tonight.
The invasion of injuries has slowed down his movement rate, which is why the Lakers can always help defend Ewing.
After the main lineup returned to the court, Li You was not in a hurry, and still controlled the offensive rhythm of the Knicks steadily, and Ewing also fully cooperated.
Larry Johnson didn't say anything on the side, he was about to become the team's fourth shooting point, this award was not his turn, "Big Mom" was out of breath...
thought that the head coach would give himself some more time, but it was less than 3 minutes on the court, and the new Kobe Bryant was replaced again.
But the Heat team has too much stamina, and if they lose this award at the end of the regular season, then Li You may not be able to get [talent] this season.
Back in the locker room, Ewing clapped his hands and shouted encouragement:
"Another attack like this, our lads are always deceived! Lee delivered a nice assist. ”
Without much time to recuperate, the Knicks flew to Portland overnight to take on the Trail Blazers back-to-back tomorrow night.
"If you continue to fight like this, Ewing's usage rate will drop and it will become a cake front, and you don't want mVp..."
In the second quarter of the game, the Jazz's Hornace suddenly broke out, and Malone, who had regained his composure, stopped throwing again, and the Jazz's offense became smoother and smoother.
Standing outside the three-point line, Lee Woo gave Oakley a thumbs up, and it was difficult for him to limit Van Exel's breakthrough.
At the end of the third quarter, the score came to 76:61, and the Great Western Forum Arena was completely silent.
After returning to the locker room, Jeff Van Gundy, who blew himself up, regretted a little in his heart and suspended for one game...
In the bottom corner of the right side, Li You received a pass from Ewing, flew to Stockton after a false shake, and took advantage of the time difference to twist his body and make a jumper.
Li You, who was holding the ball in his right hand, saw Oakley's eyes, simply lowered the center of gravity of his body, and went directly to the right side to break through.
At 48:39, the margin returned to 9 points.
In Li You's view, the opponent's interior line will always be overly assisted, and there is no need to knock the low position, as long as he can break through to the paint area, the inside line is the most concise and efficient.
Patrick Ewing and Oakley applauded vigorously, and the atmosphere team cheered as well, with Lee smiling and patting his chest to indicate that he had received encouragement.
Ignoring the boos and yelling at the scene, Oakley pointed to Malone's feet and signaled that he could do the jump shot too.
Alan Houston took advantage of the gorilla's inattention and gratefully patted Li You, 4-of-7 in the single quarter, 2-of-2 from beyond the three-point line, and in the third quarter, he became the Knicks' main point of attack.
As the scores of the two sides slowly rose, Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines became more and more excited, Malone hit the iron, and the Knicks gradually suppressed the Jazz.
The thick chicken soup is thrown out without money, but Li You feels that this bald man has a hand with thin mud!
Eddie Jones scrambled to defend and not give the ball a chance to catch it, Oakley lifted the ball and finally flicked the ball to the right wing beyond the three-point line.
“...”
Oakley doesn't care about that, and he has long been impatient with Van Exel's frequent breakthroughs into the interior tonight, and he must return the favor without affecting the outcome of the game.
Jeff Van Gundy was the first to return to the dressing room, and when the players were all seated, he immediately exclaimed:
"George Carr has devised a shit-like tactic!"
Buy tickets to watch the game, most of them like to watch the gorgeous attack, Van Axel and Li You's style of play is relatively fancy, fans didn't expect that the two played against each other, and finally turned into a mutual fight.
At the end of the season, the mVp award became the focus of attention, and Ewing's preference for low back singles was also related to the team's record.
Stockton began to speed up the Jazz's offensive tempo, trying to get Malone to shoot more.
The gorillas really want to win this game, and they are all starting to cooperate fully...
Knight tried hard to defend, but was still stuck behind him, and Lee You, who came to the left wing outside the three-point line, did not make any unnecessary moves and quickly threw the ball to Ewing.
"It's definitely not a good sign, the Knicks seem to have found their offensive rhythm!"
"I really won't see you in Salt Lake City this season!"
The Knicks' offense, although not fast, is rising!
Commentator Loftus-Cheek Hearn's voice was full of regret and it didn't bode well to be overtaken by an opponent as the regular season drew to a close.
Van Exel's beautiful pass turned into a free throw, and Lakers fans who like to watch the show were very dissatisfied, and the Great Western Forum Arena was booed for a while.
In the pre-game locker room, Charles Oakley was very disgusted by the media hype that Malone was going to win the mVp:
If he hadn't spoken out in midfield, Van Gundy wouldn't have said this:
Taking advantage of Li You's attention to attract the attention of the defense and running to the bottom right corner, Alan Houston at the top of the arc quickly stepped forward and feigned hand.
Coming back, Lee Woo hit the ground on the line and found the "Big Mom" who ran back along the baseline, and Knight also sent Larry Johnson to the free throw line.
12-of-27 and 9-of-12 free throws, Malone finally scored a double-double of 33 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal in this crucial game;
"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!
Both made one of two free throws, making the score 49-40 in the first half.
Excellent dunk opportunity, but the quality of the pass was not high, Knight was forced to adjust when he received the ball, and then wanted to be strong under the basket, and was directly pressed down by Ewing!
The boss complained about the media, and everyone could only follow suit:
"Think about the schedule in March, back at home after a day of rest and then two more games."
Alan Houston relied on Ewing's undercover to quickly bounce out from the right side of the baseline, and just came to the right elbow area of the free throw line when he received a pass from Lee You.
"Shhhhh
Ma Long couldn't help but wave his hand when he retreated, but he couldn't throw!
He sat on the bench safely throughout the game, showing a handsome demeanor.
At halftime, Lee Woo was 4-of-7 from the field and 3-of-5 from beyond the three-point line, scoring a team-high 11 points.
Jeff Van Gundy kept yelling from the sidelines to remind his players to step back, and as long as the offense hit, Stockton quickly pushed forward to switch offense.
Such a performance also discounted Ewing's data.
Pointing at the referee and yelling, Jeff Van Gundy was eventually pulled back to the bench by the coaching staff.
The referee finally made up a balance whistle and blew a foul on Li You's hand...
The 2.18-meter Ostertag couldn't lower his center of gravity in time, and could only watch the basketball pass in front of him, while Li You used force under his feet and jumped forward violently, squeezing between the two big men.
Van Axel finished with eight points, two rebounds, five assists and one turnover on 3-of-8 shooting from beyond the three-point line, 1-of-2 from beyond the three-point line and 1-of-2 from the free throw line.
Van Eccel was also reminding Meng Xin that he was not out of position, and Ewing and Lee You, who completed the iron-blooded jumper, high-fived and celebrated, and everyone's goal was to expand the margin to double digits first...
This data is not pretty, and the perception on the court does not occupy too much advantage, giving people the illusion of "I can do it too".
“defense! defense! defense! ”
"Man, a good point guard needs to master the game himself!"
“...”
"Don't let me see you in New York!"
"I can do it too!" After Kobe Bryant came on the court, he didn't relent, and for two consecutive rounds, he hit two irons in the left and right elbow areas.
Li You shrugged his shoulders helplessly, he also couldn't change the referee's decision.
"Shhhhh
"You can try the middle distance first, I've almost found the feel!"
"Nick's passing is great, but it's hard for the lads to finish under the basket!"
"Hold on, give me the rebound, we've got to win this game!"
Observing the position of his teammates in the air, Li You grabbed the ball with one hand with his left hand, faked a real pass, and gave the ball to Ewing at the bottom right of the basket in the human gap, who received the ball and directly came with a one-arm heavy dunk!
Lakers fans didn't care about that, and when the home team players left the court, they cheered as always.
Lee Woo raised his right arm expressionlessly and raised three fingers at the Jazz fans in the front row.
After Li You rushed up with three defensive steps, he also fell into the three-person encirclement in the paint area.
The Heat also lost a game, and the battle continued into April.
Under the high-quality cover, Van Exel, who made the wrong defensive choice, was delayed and immediately fell behind Li You by half a position.
"The sports media in the United States knows that NbA, so they should let players vote for mVp!"
But this time, Li You stopped on the left wing outside the three-point line, and Ewing immediately stepped forward to make a high block.
Charles Oakley spoke first, he didn't care how to win, in his opinion, as long as Ewing still enjoyed the privilege of being the boss, the stats did not shrink.
Travis Knight was in charge of marking Ewing, and in the face of the newcomer, the gorilla didn't bother to do cross-cover, and directly stuck in the low back position on the left side.
The Gorillas were 4-of-9 in the first half, 6-of-10 in the second half, and 10-of-19 in the game, with 25 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 turnovers.
