Chapter 27: Iron Fist's low-post singles
"Hey, postman, don't be impulsive." The referee hurriedly blocked the front.
"Damn boy, you did it on purpose, didn't you?"
The postman pulled up Stockton under his feet with one hand, and when he saw that his good brother had a nosebleed, he immediately pointed at Zhou Quan and said angrily.
Zhou Quan showed a gentle smile on his face, but nodded and said, "He deliberately stepped on my foot for the second time, and I did deliberately pull him down, do you have an opinion?" ”
"Bastard!"
The postman was furious.
Mark Eaton was very surprised, he didn't expect this rookie to dare to provoke the postman, did he think that the postman was as soft as Ranbill?
But he also has to admire Zhou Quan, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers! Such a rookie will sooner or later suffer a big loss at the hands of the postman.
At this time, the fans of Auburn Hills Palace were excited, and their favorite thing to watch in the era of the Bad Boys was fighting, which was why the Pistons had the highest attendance in the league in those years.
They knew that Iron Fist could fight, and now they were all expecting Iron Fist and the Postman to fight, so that they could see what Iron Fist could do.
The referee's head also hurts, rookie, aren't you adding fuel to the fire?
He immediately shouted sternly to the two: "Stand down, or I won't mind letting you eat T." ”
"Damn it!"
The postman's eyes flashed and he retreated.
"Shh
Seeing that the postman had retreated, the palace of Auburn Hills suddenly resounded with a loud boo.
In the audience, the smile on Thomas's face continued.
He was more than happy to see Stockton suffer under Iron Fist, which made him comfortable.
At the same time, Iron Fist dared to face the Postman, which also made him very happy, and there were very few people in the alliance who dared to face the Postman.
"If you dare to do this with the postman, this rookie will suffer a big loss." Ranbir said from the side.
Thomas turned around and glanced at Ranbill, pouting.
He knows this buddy too well, and he changed Ranbir, not to mention being tough with the postman, with his rich family's worth, he couldn't risk his life at all, and he would hide behind in ordinary fights.
On the court, the referee made a penalty and gave Zhou Quan a defensive foul.
Jerry Sloan called a timeout for the team doctor to take care of Stockton's nose.
"There should be a fracture of the nasal cartilage, no major problems."
The team doctor examined it, sprayed some hemostatic agent inside, and found a clear mask for Stockton to put on.
"John, I'll make that kid look good."
The postman was annoyed and injured Stockton, which was his responsibility for failing to protect his brother.
"Jeff, Blue, from now on, it's up to you to change your Iron Fist." Jerry Sloan commanded.
"Got it, Coach." The two hurriedly replied.
At the end of the timeout, the Jazz served on the sideline in front of the court, and there were 14 seconds left on the offensive time.
Stockton got rid of Zhou Quan by blocking and dismantling, ran to the top of the arc to catch the ball, saw Zhou Quan chasing up again, and hurriedly pulled to the right wing, and Jeff Malone came over to block and dismantle again.
But Zhou Quan quickly bypassed Jeff Malone and caught up with Stockton, who couldn't shake off the defender and had to hand the ball to Jeff Malone first.
"Bang!"
Jeff Malone made a fake shot in front of Joe Dumas, but it missed.
Dennis Rodman grabbed the rebound on the postman's head, and when he landed, the two got tangled up and both fell to the ground.
Rodman threw the ball to Zhou Quan, who ran over to catch it, and after receiving the ball, he was wrapped around Jeff Malone, and the Jazz took the opportunity to return to defense.
When he came to the front court and saw that Jeff Malone was still in the way, Zhou Quan immediately dribbled to the right wing.
When Jo Dumas saw it, he immediately came over to block it.
In this way, Zhou Quan replaced Stockton back and made a gesture to John Sailly below, who immediately went to the basket and gave up the right wing in the low post.
"Tekken is once again singled Stockton in the low post."
The bearded John Lowes shouted excitedly.
"Bang!"
Zhou Quan didn't test this time, but suddenly arched back, and Stockton was too light and was knocked to the ground.
The postman's eyes were red when he saw it, and he pounced from under the basket.
"Bang!"
When Zhou Quan turned around, he had already seen Ulrich, and then saw the postman coming, and hurriedly pushed the ball to the floor, and the basketball rebounded from the ground, just crashing into Ulrich's hand.
Ulrich received the ball and immediately jumped sideways and sent the ball to the board.
But at this moment, Mark Eaton, who is 224 cm tall and has an arm span of 250 cm, didn't jump, and with a big wave of his hand, he pressed the ball on the rebound.
"Alas!"
The Pistons fans, who were about to cheer, couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
The game continued to attack, and at the end of the first quarter, at 18:25, the weaker Pistons led by 7 points.
Zhou Quan played the whole quarter, constantly singled Stockton, made 4 of 7 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 10 points and grabbed 2 rebounds, and handed out 3 assists and 2 steals, but also had 1 turnover.
4 goals, 2 layups, all of which are the kind of layups that take the head of the generals in the team and penetrate into the crowd, which is very difficult.
But it is equivalent to the current unreliable pull-up jump shot, and this kind of offense that consumes more is still more efficient.
With 10 points in a single quarter, he gained some confidence in his offensive ability.
Although the system's offensive assessment of him is still 75, he believes that the system's evaluation should be like the median, and in real games, his offensive ability should have different ups and downs depending on the strength of the opponent.
Although Stockton is one of the most powerful point guards of this era, the difference in strength and tonnage between the two sides is several notches and he can't be guarded.
And he can guard against Stockton, although Stockton is thin, but his speed is not very fast, and once there is a physical confrontation, he will take a big advantage.
In this quarter, Stockton played 10 minutes, and under his deliberate targeting, he fell to the ground seven times, almost every three rounds.
So even though Stockton is strong, he can keep his opponents at bay, so he played well today.
In the second quarter, Stockton did not play again, suffered a big loss under Zhou Quan, and needed time to recover.
In this quarter, Zhou Quan played the next 7 minutes, facing Jazz's backup point guard Eric Murdoch, and his performance was a little worse than the first quarter.
Murdoch is 3 centimeters shorter than him, with a tonnage of 86 kilograms, nearly 10 kilograms heavier than Stockton, and his confrontation ability is a little stronger, although he is still 9 kilograms lighter than him, but under the stalking, it affects his performance.
Again, the physical consumption in the first quarter was too large, and he had to save his physical energy until the second half to deal with Stockton, so he had some strength in the second quarter.
However, he still controlled the ball and no longer rushed in to play, concentrating on organizing the attack after a missed shot from the outside.
At halftime, 42:47, the Pistons still led by five points.
Zhou Quan played 19 minutes in the half, made 4 of 8 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 11 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, 2 turnovers and 2 fouls.
Soon after, the third quarter began.
Stockton is back in action and both sides have fielded their main line-ups.
