Basketball UFO
Chapter 23 Injuries (Page 12)
The Knicks were in trouble, and Patrick Ewing stepped up.
Continuously going crazy in the paint, dunking several times, chasing the score to a 2-point gap.
The No. 1985 pick in was with the Knicks at the beginning and peak of his career. He performed very well. Now the team needs him to shoulder the heavy responsibility again.
By the start of the fourth quarter, Ewing had scored 14 points and 8 rebounds, leading the Knicks to a small climax. Alan Houston was uncomfortable being guarded by Carter, and he only scored 14 points, feeling unsatisfied.
The balance of victory tilts towards the Knicks.
Cassell controlled the basketball and made a rare breakthrough with the ball. He failed to get into the long manhole inside and passed the ball out in Ewing's arms.
Carter caught the ball outside the three-point line and shot directly from a 45-degree angle. Larry Johnson was unable to defend and when he jumped to block the shot, Carter had already made a three-pointer.
Come in again! Carter's third three-pointer of the game.
"God, Carter is so accurate from outside. He really went crazy today."
"A great dunk and a solid shot. Does Carter have any shortcomings?"
Van Gundy thought about Carter's problem, as if there was really no way to deal with him in this game. "Carter also has shortcomings. There are too few post-ups, and his main attack method is face-to-face attacks. It's a pity that we don't have time to arrange it."
Carter has scored 30 points, and the genius performance continues.
After three consecutive 3+ games, there seems to be an unstoppable tendency to move forward.
The Knicks players were shocked by Carter's bravery, a little confused, and missed another wave of consecutive shots. Carter made another sudden shot and scored another 4 points.
Open the score again.
Van Gundy called a timeout and taught the disciples who were stunned, "If everyone gives up the game, I will remove the main players now."
"Roar!" Ewing beat his chest and wanted to continue.
Back on the court, Ewing received a pass from Houston and dunked with one arm. Sean Bradley really couldn't guard him.
Even though Bradley had scored 8 points and 9 rebounds, he still couldn't stop Ewing's bombing. The physiques are so different. Every time Bradley scored, it was a small hook or short mid-range shot, with no chance of dunking at all.
I can't fit in if I'm small.
"Defend Carter's face frame, pay attention to help defend." Larry Johnson remembered Van Gundy's advice. Follow Carter step by step.
Carter suddenly ran, caught the ball smoothly, and ran inside.
boom! He hit Ewing directly and fell backwards, almost falling.
The whistle actually blew Carter for an offensive foul.
"He hasn't stood still yet? Why did I commit a foul?" Carter was unhappy and argued with the referee.
Ewing's feet were obviously still moving, so how could it be a foul on him?
The referee didn't listen at all, it was Carter's offensive foul.
Ewing panted. He was hit hard just now. He rubbed his chest and complained, "This guy's physical fitness is really abnormal."
The ball was lost, but the Nets still had the lead.
The Knicks continued to attack, and Ewing took the lead again, dunking on Williams who had just appeared, roaring in the air.
When he landed, Ewing accidentally injured his ankle. His roar turned into a roar. He fell to the ground in pain, clutching his ankle and struggling.
"Yeah, let's see how many home whistles you have. Huh!" Massenberg couldn't help but snicker when he saw Ewing's miserable situation. The retribution of the home whistle will come soon.
After Ewing came off the court, the Knicks' combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Van Gundy re-adjusted the formation, letting Buck Williams and John Wallace take turns at the power forward position, still focusing on defense, and Oakley mainly played the center position, barely coping.
"Sean, you continue to play, just use your height to shoot, and don't think too much about other things." Calipari once again gave the opportunity to the 229-meter high center.
Carter dropped the ball, and Bradley made a half-turn and small hook.
He pointed at Carter excitedly, "That's it, I feel like I can beat the Knicks inside." It felt so good to feel so high.
After a while, Ewing finished his rest and returned to sit on the sidelines. Fortunately, the ankle injury is not serious, it is a hard injury, and the team doctor can recover with a little adjustment.
He sat on the sidelines and saw that the team was already 10 points behind. He was anxious and begged Jeff Van Gundy, "Coach, let me come on the court. I'm going to kill them."
"The outcome of this game is not important. Your health is what I care about most." Van Gundy comforted Ewing. He rarely gets along with the players, but he is quite good at communicating with the big men.
The only time there was a fight, Tomjanovich's brains exploded.
Van Gundy now wants others to play more and adapt to the fast break rhythm of the basket. In particular, "Central Shooting King" Alan Houston was guarded badly by Carter today and could not perform at the level he should have. It was not that he scored less, but that his efficiency was extremely low.
Ewing looked at his ankle, cursed a few times angrily, and then stopped.
He really wanted to beat the Nets. In Carter, he saw the shadow of Jordan. If you can't beat Jordan, if you beat someone similar, you will feel better after having fun.
On the court, Carter had another alley-oop with Cassel. Cassel passed the ball into the air, Carter fell from the sky, caught the ball in the air, and then had a terrible hang in the air, swinging his arm back, and then smashed into the basket.
The fans in the audience once again ignited their passion and shouted wildly for Carter. They don't care if Carter is their opponent, as long as they play well, they should be applauded.
"Damn, this game was unfairly lost." Seeing that the Knicks were helpless, Ewing cursed on the sidelines. No one knows that the Nets scored so outrageously on fast break today. They scored 22 points on fast break and the Knicks only scored 2 points. The gap is right here.
Van Gundy looked at Calipali and said, "John Calipari, it seems he has found a way to gain a foothold in the NBA."
Calipari was excited. The team rarely wins against teams in the top half. Today is a small breakthrough.
There were only 2 minutes left in the game, and the score difference reached 15 points.
The Knicks gave up the game and immediately removed all the main players, leaving the scene to the substitutes. The Nets also responded to the Knicks' approach, leaving only Bradley as a starter. He only played less than 20 minutes today, and the others also followed the rest.
Carter played 33 minutes, scoring a terrifying 40 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and dunked many times, igniting the passion of the fans and attracting a large number of New York fans.
The fans shouted, "I haven't seen such a wonderful dunk performance in a long time."
"Yes, there are not many players who score more than 40 points in Madison Square Park. Carter should be able to register." The New York fans were actually in the mood to discuss court records.
Robert Pike came on the field again and was in an excited mood. He has produced good statistics in the last few games. "Boss, we will hold on to the fruits of victory."
"Pass the ball more to Daniels and hit the inside more." Calipari was worried and told Robert Pike again.
Parker doesn't need to brush up the data, Carter has already kept him, others need data, and players without data have no trading value at all.
The team is still looking for transactions and must strengthen.
The inside is weak, and the center or power forward can be traded. The backcourt of Kendall Gill has performed averagely this season and has an average relationship with Carter. There seems to be a possibility of trading.
