196 The confrontation of the center (6)

Facing a team that is good at fast attack, what is most afraid of is not that the team cannot defend their scores, but that they can play with momentum. The Magic on the court is bleak, but on the contrary, the Supersonics are in a state of momentum. In the next four minutes, Chamberlain teased the futile spark, and together with Lei Allen, he led the team to put the basketball into the opponent's basket repeatedly, widening the score difference on the court to 19 points.

"Beep!" In the NBA, it is stipulated that only two timeouts can be called in each quarter. More calls are required to punish technical fouls. As soon as the Supersonics hit, Davis, who hesitated when Kato was booed by the fans, instantly strengthened his determination and asked the referee for a timeout. At this time, he could no longer care about so much, and he couldn't even worry in front of him. How could he have so much time to consider the future?

Everyone who watches the Magic team's game knows that under normal circumstances, the first three quarters of the game belong to Francis. If the team does not collapse, then the fourth quarter will be controlled by Grant. This is not a distrust of Francis, but rather that he, the orthodox point guard, is still a very long distance away from Grant, who is a small forward in controlling the team's rhythm.

Grant's skills are rare in NBA history. In his heyday, he was an omnipotent all-round fighter who could take almost all the tasks a team needs.

The word "organizing forward" was circulated from him. A triple-double was easy for him. If he cared about his score, 30 points in a single game could only be considered a basic task for him. At that time, there were a few people in the NBA who could not defend in one-on-one situation, one of which was Grant. If there was no injury one.

Under Ridno's defense, Francis controlled the basketball to swim outside the three-point line. At this time, his good friend Mobley ran over and made a cover for him. Francis cut to the right.

At this time, Lewis quickly made up for defense, and Ray Allen was also eyeing him, but Francis flipped his wrist and divided the ball out. It was Grant Hill who received the ball.

The moment he received the ball, Grant took a step back with his right foot. Ray Allen's attention was not on him, and Grant suddenly opened the distance between the two. When Ray Allen reacted, Grant's body had already jumped up in the air.

"Swish!" Although Ray Allen jumped hard to block, looking at Grant who was getting farther and farther away from him, Ray Allen could only say that he could do nothing. A backward jump shot! Grant used a flowing backward shot to recover three-pointers for the Magic.

The offense and defense were rotated. In the offense, Chamberlain caught the pass from the outside and used a side step to mobilize Howard's center of gravity. Then Chamberlain suddenly returned to his original position, holding the basketball with both hands, straightening his body, and showing signs of rotation. Chamberlain's action shocked Howard, thinking that Chamberlain was about to turn around and shoot on the spot, and quickly forced the center of gravity back to the center of gravity and pressed it back on.

Just as Howard's footsteps moved, Chamberlain suddenly took a big step and turned left, leaning forward and sank violently, cutting into the basket from Howard like lightning.

Revenge, complaints, and complaints. Kato, who was thrown into the face by Chamberlain's playfulness, had a bloodthirsty red light flashing in his eyes, and he quickly got the position under the basket.

He took a step forward with his left foot, stepped on the floor with his toes and lifted his right knee upwards. After doing this series of movements, Chamberlain suddenly stood on the floor with a huge drop. At this time, Kato was already jumping up with a tiger roar.

Just standing there, looking at the ascending Kato for a while, Chamberlain took a step forward, rubbed Kato's calves, and cut into the basket.

With a loud bang, Chamberlain once again hung high on the basket as a winner in the huge Colosseum in Amway Center, looking down at the crowd of people expressing dissatisfaction. Behind him was Howard, who was almost sitting on the floor, and Kato, who was staggering forward because he was jumping too hard.

In the first quarter, the scores of the two teams never changed much. With Francis' buzzer-beating three-pointer, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first quarter. The Magic, who played at home, scored a very low score of 14 points and was widened by the Supersonics by 18 points. The poor little spark only scored 2 points and 4 rebounds in the entire 12 minutes of game time, and also caused an offensive foul by Chamberlain. Chamberlain scored 17 points, grabbed six rebounds, and sent three assists. Ray Allen only scored 6 points, and 4 points in these 6 points were obtained through quick counterattacks. Knowing the importance of this game to Chamberlain, he gave almost all the offensive opportunities to Chamberlain.

"Every time I watch Chamberlain's game, it will bring me a huge shock. 17 points in a single quarter. It's hard to believe that this is the data obtained by our own players." Xu Jiping shook his head and sighed at Chamberlain. The master of Reason next to him couldn't help but make sense.

"The Supersonics played very reasonably, and almost every attack started from the inside. This not only fully utilized Chamberlain's organizational talent, but also reasonably used his huge advantage in the position. Look at this ball, Chamberlain attracted the Magic's defense in the inside, throwing high to Mooning in the open, and cooperating with an aerial relay. In fact, for Chamberlain, he was completely capable of forcing his move, but he did not, but chose a more reasonable pass."

After the game started again, the main players of both teams sat on the bench. The fast break demands on the players' physical strength, and the opponent is still a fast break team.

Running continuously for 12 minutes further exacerbated the players' physical strength loss. Unlike McMillan who made the decision to substitution with peace of mind, Davis, who was behind the side, endured the temptation to chase points in his heart and pressed the main player on the bench.

Luxury tax is a very hateful noun. The Magic's boss is not a generous person, otherwise he would not have sent Hardaway, O'Neal, McGrady, and the sparks that have been developed in later generations. Half a pound to eight taels, in three minutes, the substitutes of the two teams were equally matched. Although the Magic's substitutes narrowed the score difference by two points, the 16-point difference still did not give fans any hope. In this case, the main lineup of the two teams came back on the court.

In the half of the Supersonics, Francis cooperated with Mobri. Taking advantage of Mobri's gap to block Ridno, Francis forced to start.

The inside has done a very good job so far, so when resting, McMillan emphasized the defense of the outside. Because of the team's unparalleled record, McMillan now has great prestige in the Supersonics. Even the team boss and team manager who were already dissatisfied with him did not dare to scratch the tiger's beard. The moment Frances cut in, Lewis made up for defense from one side.

Don't expect Francis to pass the right ball at the right time. Grant, who knew this, ran away from Ray Allen in a reverse direction and inserted it straight between Lewis and Francis.

Without the help of others, Francis could not be stopped by Chamberlain now. Well, Francis passed the ball, and Chamberlain just wanted to go up and flick it, interfere with Francis, and then ran back to fight for a possible rebound. However, he did not expect that at this time, Francis suddenly passed the ball behind the back and stuffed the ball into Howard's hand.

Howard's current skills are still very rough, but his air combat ability is very strong. Without Chamberlain's candy-like constraints, he easily jumped up after catching the basketball.

"Bang!" The momentum was so strong that Mo Ning jumped up to block it with all his strength, but he still couldn't stop Howard's domineering dunk. His physical fitness was so excellent that Mo Ning could no longer stop it at this time.

At the huge Amway Stadium, countless fans screamed in admiration. When they fell on the floor, Howard, who had been suppressed for a long time, also excitedly slapped Chamberlain's chest. Just like many famous players, Chamberlain has now become one of the opponents that many players who have not yet made a name for themselves tried to defeat.

"What are you excited about, baby? Are you doing everything good except offense, defense, rebounds, and turnovers?" Chamberlain took his ears to the excited Howard, shrugged his shoulders without hesitation, and said sarcastically. Of course, this is just a joke. Howard was still hit hard by this sentence and returned to the half to participate in the defense.

Howard's expression was too honest, which made Chamberlain tease him when attacking, and the rare trash talk.

"Hey, baby, are you angry?" Rearing his back to Howard's chest, Chamberlain grinds the tofu left and right with the ball.

"No, but I will defend you." Howard responded as Chamberlain swung left and right.

"Actually you did a good job." Chamberlain took a big step to the left and leaned back hard. "But I did better." He turned around in the opposite direction, turned around Howard's body, and Chamberlain successfully cut into the basket.

"Swish!" Facing Chamberlain's shot, Kato, who couldn't tell the difference between real and fake, hesitated, and watched the basketball fly over his head, followed the basketball move, and turned around and watched the basketball pass through the basket.

"Puff!" Chamberlain blew his shot finger at Howard's honest face, which was a response to his slapping his chest.
