the great gatsby

Chapter 35 Anxious game!
"This is very obvious. Gatsby's body is full of aura. I seem to see the shadows of top point guards like Steve Nash, Chris Paul, and Stockton. Of course, Gatsby still has There's a lot of room for improvement, but he already has the embryonic form in him." Jeff Van Gundy praised from the bottom of his heart, which he rarely does.

The game was unusually intense. Although the defense of both sides was not very good, as the game progressed, both sides became more and more angry, and their defensive actions became tougher. The score did not open up, and there was even a fight. The Knicks fans were mesmerized by the multiple alternations of leads. There are rarely such exciting games in the regular season, and they only come across a few occasionally, especially for the Knicks.

Because of their weak strength, the Knicks usually fall behind by a large margin when they encounter strong teams, and they will stalemate each other when they encounter weak teams. After all, the 76ers were still a playoff team last season, and their strength is not weak. The Knicks actually It's amazing to be able to play so anxiously with the 76ers.

The fourth quarter begins.

Gatsby sat on the bench and wiped his sweat. He played for about 5 minutes at the end of the third quarter. He played a lot of time today. Counting 17 minutes, Gatsby has scored 18 points, 7 assists and 3 Rebounds and 3 steals, very efficient, but he already felt his body was protesting, his breathing became heavier and heavier, his feet became heavier, and he felt like he was dragging a heavy burden every time he took a step.

"Gatsby!" Gatsby raised his head, and D'Antoni was waving.

"Coach!" Gatsby wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel, but his eyes were firm.

D'Antoni nodded: "Can you still play?"

Gatsby looked up at the time. It was less than 3 minutes into the fourth quarter. Was he going to decide the outcome?The blood in Gatsby's heart suddenly boiled. Of course a man must go into battle and fight. If he lacks physical strength and perseverance, he must go!
Gatsby said loudly, "No problem, Coach!"

D'Antoni squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth habitually: "Okay, you are ready to play, I will win this game!"

Gatsby's eyes showed a murderous look: "Coach, leave it to me!"

The Knicks attacked, and the ball was knocked out of bounds by Iguodala. D'Antoni took the opportunity to call for a substitution, and Duhon replaced Gatsby. Cibi is on the stage!

His heart sank. This means that D'Antoni has more trust in Gatsby than him. If this is the case, will his starting position be replaced by Gatsby?

Iguodala touched the ball out of bounds, with only 3 seconds left, David Lee made a foul, Gatsby signaled Gallinari to go to the corner three-point line to open up space, Larry Hughes took a 45-degree angle, Will Sen Chandler made a wall at the elbow, Gatsby used Chandler's cover to get rid of Lu Wei, and opened a little distance. David Lee saw Gatsby and threw the ball decisively.

The moment Gatsby catches the ball, he makes a shooting action, shakes Lu Wei who is chasing him, and then dribbles to the side, kicking the ball with his legs and jumping up and out quickly!

The basketball spun rapidly in the air and hit the basket, and Madison Square Garden burst into warm cheers.

Gatsby scored 21 points personally!This is also the highest score of his NBA career, but this is only his second game.

"Gatsby, great job!" Spike Lee, who was sitting on the sidelines, shouted to Gatsby loudly. Gatsby turned around and smiled with Spike Lee. After being flashed by the bright sun, he felt dizzy for a moment!

Gatsby's goal re-overtook the score and rewritten the score to 121:123.

Lu Wei quickly dribbled the ball across half court, Gatsby dragged his heavy legs to follow Lu Wei, Lu Wei stared at Gatsby, Gatsby scored 21 points on his head today 7 assists, even stealing 2 balls from him, Lu Wei felt offended, Gatsby is a rookie, and he, Louis Williams, has been in the NBA since he was selected by the 05ers in 76. It's been a season, and he was suppressed by a rookie?It is unforgivable!

Lu Wei also didn't have a corner pick-and-roll, so he directly swayed Gatsby's center with a crossover, and went straight in. Before the Knicks could make up the defense, he hit a mid-range jumper, and the score was evened again!
123: 123!

"Wow...! Louis Williams made a hit and a valuable mid-range jumper to tie the score again. The current score is 123:123, with less than 2 minutes left, but the suspense of the outcome still exists." Mike Breen Shouted at the top of his voice.

"Coach D'Antoni took the lead in making a change and replaced Gatsby. Facts have proved that Coach D'Antoni's change was correct. Gatsby hit a three-pointer at the buzzer as soon as he came up. The Knicks overtook the score, but The 76ers didn't throw in the towel, Lou Williams stepped up and gave the team a mid-range jumper to tie the game! Amazing!" Jeff Van Gundy explained.

Gatsby slowly dribbled the ball across the half. At this time, he was not in a hurry. What he wanted now was the success rate. Scoring the ball was the best choice now. Gatsby started before the half. He made a gesture to signal his teammates to take their positions. The gesture he pointed out was the tactics that Harden, the descendant of D'Antoni, often played, the so-called one-star four-shot style of play.

The Knicks' lineup of Chandler, David Lee, and Larry Hughes is actually not a suitable candidate. Except for Gallinari's three-point ability, the others' three-point ability is very weak.

But it doesn't matter, there are changes without three-pointers. Larry Hughes can make an empty cut, Chandler can ambush the basket, and David Lee comes up with a high pick-and-roll.

After these few games, the teammates also got to know Gatsby's command, and his decision-making ability on the court was recognized, so the teammates did not hesitate to follow Gatsby's tactics, even the oldest So is Larry Hughes.

David Lee raised up quickly and blocked Lu Wei, Gatsby directly stuck to David Lee to get rid of Lu Wei, David Lee followed the trend, Lu Wei was afraid that David Lee would be left empty, so he had to follow David Lee down , Dalembert switched to Gatsby.

"Small vs. big?" Spike Lee stood up nervously. There was only more than a minute left. At this time, every offensive opportunity is very precious. If the Knicks don't score in this attack, the advantage will be to the 76ers. Over there.
