The strongest basket king

Chapter 130 Wandering
The Nuggets' one-man defense is actually not bad. They have both starting and subs. Their offense was not bad in the first half. As long as they pay attention to the details in the second half, they have a chance to win the game.

But they still have a problem, that is, the shooting is too touchy.

In the third quarter, Ty Lawson was suddenly inaccurate, but Kidd hit two three-pointers.

I thought it would be over, but Gallinari stepped forward again from the outside line. This project really needs the support of the outside line. Because the Knicks only have one inside line, they often defend against passes. The Nuggets have a chance outside.

After someone from the outside of the Nuggets stood up, the score between the two sides fell into a stalemate again.

In the last 3 minutes of the third quarter, Chandler fouled for the fourth time and went to rest. Xiang Chu instantly relaxed a lot. With offensive rebounds and dunks in the paint, the Nuggets also took the opportunity to overtake the score.

In the final quarter, Xiang Chu still rested in front, and the Knicks did not go inside again, and the two sides faced off with a small lineup.

But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Novak hit two three-pointers, and JR-Smith also hit a three-pointer. In just 3 minutes, the Knicks took the lead.

After a 4-minute break, Xiang Chu played.

He came on, and the Knicks put Chandler and Anthony on.

Chandler came up defensively, but Anthony scored 7 points in a row, and the Knicks' lead was about to go up to 10 points.

Xiang Chu is also depressed. Anthony is the key defense target of the Nuggets, but he still makes him explode.

He started to play hard inside, and after the last 5 minutes, Xiang Chu beat Chandler to five fouls and narrowed the gap to 5 points.

However, at this time Anthony scored JR-Smith, who made another three-pointer.

The Nuggets also played tough at this time. Gallinari misplaced Kidd and scored 2+1, not allowing the opponent to widen the score.

Next, the Knicks completely handed over the offensive end to Anthony. The Nuggets scored two points, and Anthony hit two points in singles. Three times in a row, Anthony scored another 6 points, and the score gap remained unchanged.

But after a few rounds, there is no time, and the gap of 5 points must be gambled by three points.

Iguodala missed from outside the three-point line, the Nuggets adopted foul tactics, Kidd made two free throws, and the Nuggets had no choice but to accept the defeat again.

The Knicks hit 12 three-pointers this time, but the Nuggets were not killed by three-pointers, they were killed by the Knicks using star tactics.

However, their three-point shooting percentage of less than [-]% also explains a lot of problems. In fact, if they shoot more stably, they will not be so passive at the last moment.

Xiang Chu is also very emotional. As an inside player, he relies on passing the ball very much, and there are too few times when he can directly determine the outcome of the game at the last moment.

To solve this, one is that the Nuggets' passing becomes better, and the other is that his offensive methods become more.

In fact, although the Nuggets' passing is not at the master level, it is not bad and is above the average level, so Xiang Chu feels that it is more likely that he will pull out another magic skill.

The former disciple dominated the game at critical moments. George Karl also had mixed feelings. He said to reporters: "I said that Anthony will win the championship sooner or later. Before that, he must understand who is ahead of personal data and team interests. That's what matters, and now they're on that path."

Talking about Anthony's trade, he said: "I don't think we need to stay in the past now, but to help our team move forward."

Obviously, George Karl is not a magnanimous old man, and he was still very upset with Anthony. It was only after losing this game that he pinched his nose and said something on the scene.

He talked about personal data and team interests, obviously alluding to Anthony's style of play.

Xiang Chu knew that when the head coach said this, he knew that someone would make use of it. Sure enough, many people who didn't like him put this on him.

He only scored 22 points and 13 rebounds this time. Could it be that his statistics are good, but he is too lazy to end the game and quarrel with those people.

What's important is that he doesn't have to go off the field himself. He is still angry at Olivia's attack on Heizi now, and the girl will mobilize a bunch of fans to besiege her. The fighting power is strong.

Sometimes Xiang Chu needs to remind her that she is here to get a degree and not to keep fighting with others online.

But Olivia also has some advantages. She is becoming more and more famous on social media, and she is living a happy life with small advertisements.

After the Knicks and the Nuggets are going to play the Pistons away, they finally encountered a soft persimmon.

The Pistons are still half-dead, but Stuckey has been relegated to the bench. The Pistons have given Stuckey a chance for several years and haven't really gotten up. They probably want to give up this buddy.

In fact, many players in the league have had good opportunities, but many people have not grasped them.

The Pistons have two good young insiders, Monroe has good skills, and Drummond, the No. 9 pick this year, is physically strong and able to grab and defend.

However, the two also have obvious shortcomings. Monroe doesn't like confrontation, and Drummond is a bit rough.

When Xiang Chu was not so strong against them, it was difficult to fight against them, but now he can completely suppress them.

But they didn't start well, allowing Brandon Knight and Mark Hill to score consecutively.

Not only that, except for Xiang Chu, all the Nuggets are working hard.

George Karl is not as fit as he was when he was young, and he can't yell so loudly. Many times he stopped yelling, but this time he couldn't help it.

The key is that the Pistons' style of play does not have the three-pointer they are most worried about, so there should be no problem.

It’s better for Xiang Chu to firmly suppress Monroe. George Karl felt that he was extremely wise. He saw Xiang Chu’s potential and the team traded him.

George Karl simply pushed Faried, who was not performing well, on the bench, and played one major and four minors instead.

After changing the lineup, the Nuggets finally stopped the decline. Brewer, who came off the bench, made a hit from the outside, and Ty Lawson also used his good breakthrough to create consecutive kills.

In addition, Xiang Chu was very efficient in the interior. The Nuggets won the second quarter by 14 points.

Faried, who had been sitting on the bench for a long time, became enlightened, mainly calmed down.

In fact, he is somewhat similar to Maxhill in some respects. Even if the hand feeling is still not good, but after adjustment, he is fully capable of making it no longer easy for the opponent to score points.

In this way, the Pistons are still threatening Knight and Stuckey on the bench.

It's also a coincidence that the two teams that Xiang Chu stayed in consecutively were not good at outside defense.

However, the Pistons' two outside lines are not the type of explosive points. Xiang Chu's inside line is intimidating, and they can't turn the sky.
