In the basketball world, starting from the 99 World Youth Championship

Chapter 102 Three-point confrontation, ten consecutive victories
Peja's free throw aroused Zhang Tian's fighting spirit. When the Pacers attacked, he asked Mark Jackson for the ball. The latter handed it to Zhang Tian. Zhang Tian got the ball. Dribbled the ball, changed the ball to the other hand, and made a breakthrough to the right at the same time. Peja used a sliding step to tilt his body slightly again, but Zhang Tian was another crotch Dribbling down and pulling the ball at the same time, Peja chose to steal. This scene is very similar to the GIF of the old hooligan stealing Iverson.

So the No. 96 pick in 14 was as tragic as the old hooligan. Zhang Tian didn't let him steal the ball, but broke through from the opponent's left side and scored a point with a throw.

Peja's lateral movement speed is generally reflected in this defense. Peja's defensive awareness can't be said to be top-notch, but at least it won't count down. However, due to his height of 206, his foot speed is far lower than 203 The group of small forwards came quickly.

"Beautiful answerball, I thought it was Philadelphia playing Sacramento without looking at the number."

Hehe, Kevin Calabro didn't go to answer Kevin Harlan's words, and the other party's hard licking made him very uncomfortable.

On the offensive end, Peja was still running all over the court looking for opportunities. This was a test for him and Zhang Tian, ​​and both sides would fight to see who had more physical strength.

Received a pass from a teammate at the top of the arc on the inside, Peja changed his speed and wanted to pass Zhang Tian. At this time, Zhang Tian was really affected by his physical strength. His foot slipped and he almost fell down. Peja took advantage of this opportunity and chose to make a layup, but just as he was about to break through, Zhang Tian, ​​who was about to fall to the floor, stretched out his arm and hit Peja's ball with a bang. The ball was broken, and Zhang Tian fell to the floor at the same time, but the referee did not stop the game. Reggie Miller received the ball and came to the king's half to score easily.

Compared with the fish pond king of his national team, the biggest difference between Peja is the ability to hold the ball. Bodi Loga's ability to hold the ball is better than Peja. Otherwise, it would be impossible to be invincible in Europe for many years. Doncic who entered the league has a template that is him.

Zhang Tian got up from the floor, but Larry Bird called a timeout.

"Zhang, you should come down and have a rest first, Dominic, come on."

Wilkins nodded. He is now a stable substitute for Zhang Tian, ​​while God's left hand has become Miller's substitute. The most tragic of the current Pacers' substitutes is undoubtedly the former substitute insider Austin Crosher. The former went to the lower leagues and became teammates with Battelle. It is really unknown whether he can come back.

The defense of the essence of human movies has already been said before, so he came up against Peja. Larry Bird really wanted to win consecutively, but he didn't want his disciples to be injured, because at this tired moment Most likely to get hurt.

After Dominique Wilkins came up, Peja had a lot more chances. He began to use long-range shots to score, and the human film essence also used superb inside skills to return the favor. After Harrington came on the field, this was even more Let Wilkins feel like a fish in water, because the latter is a space-type fourth position. He likes to pull out and shoot three-pointers.

So even though Webber scored the highest 12 points in a single quarter, the Kings still only led the Pacers by 35 points at home with a score of 37:2.

In the second quarter, the lineup of Peja, Lawrence Fonder Burke, Scott Pollard, Darryl Martin and Jason Williams was on the king's side, and Zhang Tian and Travis Best were on the Pacers side. , Chris Mullin, Harrington and Big Ben.

Zhang Tian came up again after a 2-minute break in the first quarter. He has only scored 5 points so far, so on the offensive end of the second quarter, the Pacers rookie played full of anger. Facing Peja, he took a step back and raised He shot with his hand, swiped, and continued with a three-pointer. Peja flashed a hint of envy in the eyes of the opposite side. He also wanted this style of play. Unfortunately, in the Kings, the core will always be Chris Webber, who is currently the most in the NBA. Gorgeous power forward.

It’s good to be the second child. Peja turned around and asked Darryl Martin for the ball. The king’s backup guard just got the ball from Jason Williams and it’s not hot yet, so he didn’t look at Peja at all. Dribbling recklessly, he broke through Chris Mullin, but was terminated by Da Ben with a big cap on the inside. The rebound was picked up by Da Ben. Zhang Tian received the pass and went to the backcourt of the Kings. The basket scored points, Zhang Tian scored 5 consecutive points in the second quarter, and Adelman panicked and called a timeout.

"Nick you go, nail me Zhang. Don't let him shoot easily."

The current Kings do not have Doug Christie and Mike Bibby on the perimeter, and their defense is directly down a notch. Nick Anderson has already passed his peak period and is currently in the Kings state.

He also wanted to guard against Zhang Tian, ​​but Zhang Butcher, who had already killed him like a madman, was not something he, a veteran who was in decline, could stop. Zhang Tian made another strong three-pointer from the outside line, and Nick Anderson chose to block the shot, but the block failed. , the opponent scored the ball and had to add a penalty. This is a 3+1.
The audience in the entire Arco Arena was stunned. Does Nick Anderson think the Kings are not far behind? Instantly, the curse of "No. 25 roll down" sounded from the auditorium. Nick Anderson was extremely embarrassed. He must have chosen to go through the cracks. So far in this game, he is more tragic than White Chocolate.

Zhang Tian's firepower is not so easy to be suppressed. Peja, Chris Williams, and even Lawrence Frank have come to defend Zhang Tian. Adelman began to copy the previous homework naked. He tried to use human flesh The tactics consumed Zhang Tian to death, but the Princeton coach forgot that the Pacers were not just a core. Reggie Miller's salty fish immediately became supportive when Zhang Tian was targeted.

The entire king's backwardness began to develop in an uncontrollable direction. Before the end of the four quarters, 30.00% of the audience had chosen to leave. Chris Webber was still scoring points in the paint to stop the bleeding, but he didn't quench his thirst at all. Ah, Peja scored a three-pointer during this period, but it was instantly overwhelmed by a wave of 12:3 from the Pacers, and the game was concluded. Offensive Frenzy defeated the Kings with a score of 120:101 and achieved ten consecutive victories. Zhang Tian played 37 minutes and made 19 of 10 shots and 7 of 6 three-pointers. Scored 39 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals.
