The first point guard in basketball

Chapter 413 The game between the two sides, the mighty Grizzly

The trajectory of the ball was beautiful, it flew through the air, and finally flew directly into the basket. McGrady was fouled by Xiao Tian again, and McGrady's sleepy eyes were full of unwillingness.

"Are you playing just to draw fouls? Dude, what's the point of playing like this? It's not interesting at all."

Instead of complaining to the referee, McGrady came to Xiao Tian and muttered something. Xiao Tian didn't answer the other party. McGrady's words are really young. Fouling in basketball games is also a kind of knowledge.Even if you can dunk, will your physical strength support you to dunk for a whole game? Don’t be kidding, basketball games are result-based, just like Bernard King, who is regarded as the king of New York by Knicks fans, but if you ask them who the Knicks’ number one superstar is in their minds, it will definitely not be Bernard King.

Xiao Tian was not affected by the opponent. When the goal was scored, McGrady had two fouls, which became a hidden danger. A scorer’s reasonable use of the rules to cheat fouls is also one of the necessary means. After all, most basketball players are not at O’Neal’s level of physical fitness. Fouls are the most stable way to score. Although it is ugly and boring, it may be enough to throw the ball into the basket.

The Spurs attacked, the little general came to the frontcourt, and the other teammates had no chance except Malik Ross. McGrady tried his best to get rid of the madman and ran to the other side. With a single slap, the ball forcibly fell from McGrady's hands, but it also touched Xiao Tian's body, and the ball still belonged to the Spurs.

"Referee, he made a foul. This guy hit me just now." McGrady came down from the air and complained to the referee. The referee didn't speak. Just now he was beside the two of them, and he could clearly see that Xiao Tian was going for the ball, not his hand.Although this guy didn't get the DPOY this season, but he is only a few votes less than Uncle Mu, because Xiao Tian has already won the scoring champion, assists champion and mvp, if he even got the DPOY, it would be amazing, Chamberlain didn't do this back then.

Xiao Tian's defense this season is the best in the past three seasons. In the previous two seasons, his defense relied more on consciousness, and last season he completely used his physical strength to crush it. Only this season, he really started to defend.

With less than 5 seconds to attack, Popovich called a timeout, "Malik, take a break, and Rashad, go up. After you go up, give me the opponent's space. If you have the opportunity to shoot directly, don't hesitate."

A gloomy look flashed across Malik Rose's expression. It has been two seasons since he came to the Spurs. In these two seasons, Popovich has always hoped to make himself a good helper next to David Robinson, but he can defend well, but offense, forget it. His rough touch makes him tremble involuntarily every time the ball is in his hand and faces the basket. Malik Rose doesn't know why he became like this.

Look at Xiao Tian and Kobe, both came from Philadelphia. The difference is really big. I was in Offrick High School in high school, which is also a famous basketball school in Philadelphia. However, Xiao Tian’s appearance made me completely become a spectator in the last year of high school, because I was directly eliminated by Xiao Tian in that semifinal. own shortcomings.Hampton High School is not famous for basketball in Philadelphia at all, and their basketball level has always been the existence of the tail of the crane.

In the high school semi-finals, Xiao Tian had very few assists, but his shooting really terrified him. Facing the defense of three people, he could still put the ball into the basket with his own breakthrough and rhythm. It was really a one-person and five-person fight. In terms of overall strength, his side was absolutely superior, but the one who won in the end was Xiao Tian's side.

Now in the NBA, this year is my contract year. The Spurs are only willing to give me a six-year 1600 million contract. The price of this contract is very ordinary. I don’t want to sign it, but my agent wants me to sign it, because this is very likely to be my last decent contract. If I also play with Xiao Tian, ​​at least the contract can be doubled.

Malik Rose watched Rashard Lewis face Duncan on the court off the court. His arrival meant that David Robinson could no longer just attack. This is where he is better than Rashard Lewis.

But Duncan’s facial paralysis, his basketball IQ is online, and seeing that it was Rashard Lewis, he took the initiative to ask for the ball from Xiao Tian. Compared with Malik Rose, Rashard Lewis’ low-post defense did not give him enough pressure, so there was nothing wrong with him choosing to force Lewis.

This time, Lewis was hit back by Duncan when he came up. Popovich could only shake his head on the sidelines, making Rashard Lewis accept that he could not limit Duncan on the defensive end, and hoped that he could find it on the offensive end.

Spurs attack.Rashad Lewis is not sticking in the inside at all, he is constantly floating on the outside, which makes Duncan have to also come to the outside, because Rashad Lewis' shooting range is there.

Popovich smiled. It seemed that he was right to play Rashad Lewis. This guy’s basketball IQ is not bad. He knows how to use his own advantage. Without Duncan in the paint, the Admiral’s defensive pressure is much lower. Facing Da Ben alone, David Robinson chose to face the frame. This unsolvable move, Da Ben is very helpless. Except for fouls, he can’t stop the Admiral at all.

But one thing to note is that it is true that Rashard Lewis temporarily liberated David Robinson when he played, but he also compressed McGrady’s shooting space. This season, McGrady’s scoring method is still shooting. As for the pull-up layup, he rarely uses it.

But when Rashad Lewis came up, the outside shooting space was suddenly shrunk. Duncan's current shooting range is much longer than in the historical space, so there is nothing wrong with him being attracted to the outside by Rashad Lewis.

Rashad Lewis was stuck on the outside, but the little general kept sending the ball inside. David Robinson's scoring efficiency increased, but the other four Spurs' offenses were suddenly paralyzed.

The four people outside, except for the general's shooting ability, Sean Elliott and Mario Alley are the kind of shooting type, which makes it easy for the Grizzlies to defend. You David Robinson can score, but your teammates don't want to score.

David Robinson scored 24 points in this quarter, and he scored another 12 points in one quarter, but the Grizzlies' lead has reached 7 points. Xiao Tian scored 18 points and 12 assists in the half, Duncan scored 20 points, and Malik Rose went off, completely liberating the Flying Devil.If it wasn't for David Robinson bullying Big Ben in the paint, then the game would be really hard to say.
