The strongest basket king

Chapter 246 Stability
"Xiang Chu caused another damage. Sullinger has already fouled five times. Their advantage in the first quarter will be lost. Stevens must find a way."

"Oh, Xiang Chu sent another beautiful block, and the Celtics' offense came to a standstill."

At the end of the third quarter, the Nuggets narrowed the gap between the two sides to 1 point.

Xiang Chu originally planned to go up after a short rest, taking advantage of the good form to overtake the score in one fell swoop.

However, Mozgov's performance in the second half was also good, so he took a longer rest.

On the court again, Xiang Chu made another kill, and Favillani had already fouled four times. The Celtics' defense was fierce, and it could easily become a foul, but Xiang Chu was not afraid at all.

It may be the reason why the two sides began to fight hand-to-hand, and there was another problem with the team's outside firepower.

But it was getting more and more difficult for the Celtics to score. Xiang Chu relied on inside offense and offensive rebounds to lead the team to grind the opponent one by one, and then turned over at 3 minutes and 57 seconds. The jumper overtook the score.

Then the Celtics attacked, Xiang Chu blocked Brandon Bass again, the Nuggets counterattacked quickly, Knight made a layup, and the Celtics requested a timeout.

After playing again, Sulinger, who had just been replaced, hit two points, and the Celtics saw hope again.

But when it was the Nuggets' turn to attack, Belinelli hit a three-pointer, and the hearts of the Celtics home fans sank.

The time has entered the last 2 minutes, and the Celtics players are also a little anxious.

In the next two offenses, they both shot from outside the three-point line. After missing the shots, the Nuggets have already led by 6 points.

In the end, the Celtics had to use foul tactics, and Knight made two free throws both times.

At the last moment, the Celtics Jordan Crawford hit a three-pointer, but it was too late by this time.

As the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the Nuggets ushered in a ten-game winning streak.

The data of 40 points, 17 rebounds and 6 blocks also showed Xiang Chu's influence on the game. It is because of him that the Nuggets reversed their opponents and achieved ten consecutive victories.

This is the impact of superstars on the team. Without him, the Nuggets might not even be able to enter the top eight in the Western Conference.

The media exclaimed, "Unstoppable!"

There have been many discussions comparing him with O'Neal. The two have different styles, but their dominance in the interior is becoming more and more similar.

O'Neal also likes Xiang Chu very much. He publicly stated, "I am very happy that there are real centers in the league again."

Xiang Chu hurriedly made a fuss on social media. O'Neill may not even know that he was one of the templates he chose. The magic skill that combines the strengths of the three templates is already different from the style of a single template.

Xiang Chu and the Nuggets are in the limelight now, but there are still so-called experts who insist that their style of play will not have a future in the playoffs.

Xiang Chu didn't want to talk to them at all, and just slapped them in the face.

In order to be able to slap my face when the time comes, what I should work hard now is to do my best.

The relationship between Xiang Chu and Olivia has been made public for a long time, and the fans of the restaurant they invested in also know that the better he is doing now, the better the fans who are scheduled to come to eat, and some fans even come from far away across the ocean.

Olivia was still a little depressed. She found that her efforts to think of marketing ideas were not as effective as Xiang Chu's good game.

However, as the most loyal fan, Olivia is also very embarrassing on social media.

Especially now that some small commercial endorsements can't find Xiang Chu, they even find a new way to find Olivia, so that she has the opportunity to earn more private money.

Regardless of the external situation, the Nuggets will continue to play back-to-back away games.

The Nuggets came to Philadelphia non-stop, sent away the only All-Star in the team, and exchanged for a rookie who was injured and unable to play.

But they are not too miserable, if the contract is renewed, Bynum will be really taken advantage of.

The 76ers' No. 11 rookie McAway performed well this year, but he was also unable to play this time due to injury.

The 76ers have a poor defense and no stars, but they can win if the offense is convulsed.

At the start of the game, their defender Tony Rothen performed well.

Insider Hawes will definitely not be able to guard Xiang Chu, but on the offensive end he can pull out to shoot three-pointers, and Xiang Chu still can't crush the opponent in a short time.

The important thing is that in the case of consecutive away games, the Nuggets' shooters are not in an unstable state.

George Karl also adjusted quickly, trying to let Xiang Chu partner with each outside line.

This time it was Chandler who took the lead from outside. After Chandler hit two three-pointers, the Nuggets took the lead.

Stability is a big problem for the Nuggets now, but this problem is not easy to solve.

Because they don't have all-star players on the perimeter, although some players can sometimes perform well, they are all unstable and cannot support the team with Xiang Chong.

There is no way to solve this situation in a short time. Only after a long period of running-in can a relatively stable combination be found.

Until then, they have to take risks.

After the Nuggets took the lead, the 76ers simply played a small lineup. Anyway, Hawes couldn't prevent Xiang Chu, and he had fouled twice.

There is no way, but the 76ers' shooting percentage is not bad.

The Nuggets' defense is fully expanded, and there is another Chu assist defense inside. Many of the 76ers' offenses are jump shots that step into the three-point line, but this kind of attack is very difficult to defend if it is accurate.

What the Nuggets have to do now is to prevent the opponent from overtaking the game, slowly grind with the opponent under the pressure of the rhythm, and fight for discipline and stability with the 76ers.

Big teams have their moments, but they're usually inconsistent.

The Nuggets are not allowed outside, so they can't be in a hurry.

As the leader of the team, Xiang Chu is very calm and can score to stabilize the situation, and other Nuggets players have gradually entered the state.

When you are tired, it will be slower to adjust the feel, but it will get better after the body is fully opened.

As long as you don't fight for a long time, the improved state will last for a while.

In the second quarter, the Nuggets still didn't find any opportunities, and the young players of the 76ers played more excitedly at home.

But at halftime, the Nuggets still relied on their inside advantage to lead the opponent by 2 points.

In the locker room, George Karl praised Xiang Chu, "We don't need to worry, because we have Xiang Chu, they won't be able to bear it, and that's when we seize the opportunity to accept the game."

At the beginning of the second half, the 76ers didn't show any flaws. Thaddeus Young still pressed Faried to play, and the turning point still appeared on the Nuggets themselves.

Jefferson, who has been feeling bad in recent games, hit two consecutive three-pointers from the outside, and the Nuggets took the opportunity to expand the score advantage.

Sometimes, leading by 2 or 3 points is completely different from leading by 6 or 7 points.

Seeing that the Nuggets have a tendency to close the game, the 76ers panicked.
