Chapter 58 The Answer to Lonely

The big dog glanced at the No. 50 player of the Trail Blazers, but he was angry in his heart. He didn't know much about Randolph. Indiana is the most involved basketball state in the United States. In his knowledge, only Larry Bird can compare with him. The others are rotten fish and rotten shrimp.

Facing the provocation of Randolph, a small shrimp, Glenn Robinson was very unhappy. During the attacking round of the Sixers, Iverson controlled the ball and prepared to break through, but Philadelphia asked for the ball near the penalty area on the left side of the [-]th position.

Philadelphia No. [-] thought about it and passed the ball. Sprewell and Li Qi's joint defense tonight made him very uncomfortable, especially Li Qi's help defense. That guy's footwork was really too fast, and he couldn't tell that the opponent was a [-]-foot-[-] guard.

The big dog received the ball, leaned on Randolph, turned around and walked in. Randolph used the lower plate to block the opponent's position, not allowing others to pass easily, because Randolph knew that Glenn Robinson, an All-Star, was a soft guy. His offensive style was more like a small forward, basically face-up.

Resisting his lower plate, and then interfering with his shooting is over, but the opponent has a few brushes as the No. [-] pick in the NBA draft. The latter changed the ball to the other hand, a throw near the penalty area, and scored the ball.Randolph's defense was ineffective, and Milicic was entangled by Coleman.

Randolph was very unwilling. He had done a good job defending just now, but the opponent still scored.In the Blazers' offensive round, Snow was still close to Li Qi. Although he had been passed several times before, the opponent would shoot from the outside if he was not close to him. Randy Els ordered Li Qi to break through before the game and not let him shoot from the outside.

As a defensive guard, Snow did a very good job. He tried his best to squeeze Li Qi out of the inside line to prevent him from entering, but the latter could always enter the hinterland of Philadelphia through changes in rhythm. Besides himself, the other four starters in Philadelphia were veritable eye defenses.Li Qi succeeded in breaking through Snow again. This time, he did not continue to jump directly inside, but walked in. Big Dog wanted to show himself in this game, so he jumped out and blocked Li Qi's left.

Big Dog couldn't help yelling at his partner, "Why didn't you stop him just now?"

Coleman looked at Robinson as if he was mentally retarded, "Are the two of us defensive material?"

The latter's words silenced the big dog. So far in their careers, both of them are synonymous with trouble, and defense has never appeared in their dictionary.

Iverson didn't care about his partner on the inside, and quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt. He used a breakthrough to pass Sprewell, and Li Qi appeared on his breakthrough route again. The Philadelphia No. [-] was still changing direction back and forth like the previous few times. Li Qi ignored it. The next second, the Philadelphia core suddenly turned to the left. Kobe's top ten goals, except that the goal was not shot on the spot, but after turning around, it was dribbled to the basket and shot.

But at that time, he was at his peak, and there was a watershed between Iverson who won the MVP and the AI ​​after winning. His speed and explosiveness were still there, but they were not as scary as before, so he just chose to solve them on the spot.

Li Qi was not depressed. Although the opponent's strength was no longer at its peak, it was still stronger than him. This was for sure. After all, he was the shortest scoring leader in the NBA.

Li Qi returned to the frontcourt and called Randolph out to play the pick-and-roll, but the big dog didn't follow him. After being active for a round, he returned to his previous posture. Coleman next to him gave him a look of contempt.

Li Qi broke into the penalty area, the double champion came out to block, and he passed the ball back. Randolph didn't move near the free throw line.

Trail Blazers No. 50 and Li Qi clapped their hands together, and at the same time gave a provocative look at Glenn Robinson, whose expression was very calm.It seemed that he wasn't the one who had just singled out Randolph.

It seems that these people in Philadelphia are just playing fish and dawdling except for Snow and Iverson who are really playing seriously.

Randy Els naturally saw it too, he waved his hand, three up and three times, Mark Jackson, Aaron McGee, Dalembert, Kenny Thomas, Big Dog and Coleman rolled down to rest.

At this time, the game was almost halftime, and there was less than 1 minute left before the end of the half. Iverson made 13 of 6, 4 of 2 three-pointers, and 6 of 5 free throws. He scored 19 points. This score is also the highest score in the half.But Philadelphia was already 9 points behind at this time. Li Qi was 10 of 5 on the opposite side, 2 of 2 three-pointers, and no free throws. He scored 12 points and 6 assists, while Iverson had 3 assists, although he scored 7 more points than Li Qi.

But with Li Qi's assist, Randolph also scored 10 points, 4 of 4 and 2 free throws.D'Antoni saw that Randy Els had replaced three substitutes, and he also replaced Li Qi and others for the second half.

In the end, the two sides entered the intermission with a score of 41:50.The two sides had almost the same number of shots in the half, one with 38 and the other with 36, but the Blazers led by 9 points. It wasn't that Iverson played badly, but that others played too badly.To be precise, Philadelphia needs to pay for their defense.

Philadelphia had only 15 rebounds in the half game, while the Trail Blazers had 19, four more rebounds than them, and at least four offenses, so they were only 9 points behind in the away game. I really want to thank Iverson for his explosion.

The game continued after a few minutes of rest in the second half. Because Li Qi and others didn't come up because they were leading by 9 points, Blake and Lynch Hunter got another chance to play together, and then their combination actually supported Iverson's impact.Dale Davis has been out of battle for a long time, and he can hit the neck of the basket with an empty basket.Fortunately, Okur was alert and made up the ball, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

It was Snow who broke the deadlock for Philadelphia. He used his speed to pass Blake and hit two points from the mid-range. In addition to serving as Iverson's guard with a knife in Philadelphia, Snow also stood up and scored in this situation.
