229. The overall situation is chaos
(Read the full text of the Reading House without pop-up windows)
After several days of rest, Chamberlain's wrist injury has completely improved, but the outside world's criticism of Swat and the rough law enforcement of the US police has become increasingly fierce. Now Captain Scheter, the captain of the Swat tactical team, has resigned. According to the corrections of San Francisco Police Chief Zarizab, he ordered his subordinates to treat Chamberlain roughly without obeying the orders.
Of course, these are off-topics and have little to do with the current game. After Chamberlain's skills improved, Old Nelson needed him to participate in the offense with all his strength. The current Spurs are very different from the Spurs in the early 21st century. Although they are still tough in defense, they no longer rely solely on defense to conquer the world, and their offense is also excellent.
Old Nelson needed Chamberlain to lead the Warriors' offense, and defense was too exhausting and energy, so he sent Evans to specifically deal with Duncan. This is why Evans was able to start.
After Thurmond's ****, Evans is no longer the rebounder with rough defensive skills. He clamped Duncan, stuck the opponent's leg bend with his knees, and also pushed Duncan with his strong chest, making the opponent unable to stand firm.
Chamberlain easily stuck Oberto behind him and waited to make up for Duncan at any time. He didn't think Evans could handle Duncan alone.
But he didn't expect that Duncan would be so difficult to deal with.
Facing Evans' rough defense and Duncan's difficult dribble, Evans thought he had an opportunity to take advantage of the ball, but Duncan turned around flexibly and easily threw away Evans' tight defense. As soon as he got an open position, he immediately pulled a step to the right wing forty-five degrees and jumped out.
The basketball hit the rebound, and with a crisp sound, the ball fell into the ring.
Suddenly, uniform cheers rang out from the at&t stadium: "td,mvp!td,mvp!"
Chamberlain picked up the ball and sent it to Billups, and said in disappointment: "What a fucking slut, but he just scored a goal, he still fucked MVP?"
Billups smiled but said nothing. He dribbled the ball and swam the outside for a while. Chamberlain mentioned the high position and Evans stood at the basket. Seeing this, he winked. Evans suddenly ran out, while Chamberlain turned around and rushed to the basket.
Duncan followed up in time, but Evans blocked his footsteps. Billups immediately transferred the ball to Chamberlain, who faced Oberto.
Oberto was slower than Chamberlain, less flexible and weaker in strength. All he could do was to foul the impact of Chamberlain.
In this way, Chamberlain made a strong force under the basket, Oberto stood on the free throw line for a foul. Opposite him was a group of fanatical Spurs fans. Countless people waved the glow stick at him. The moment he raised the ball, the booing of the whole audience suddenly increased to a higher level. Chamberlain shook his wrist and made a three-no-touch appearance.
The whole game suddenly laughed, and Duncan, who was standing at the basket, couldn't help laughing. He pointed at Chamberlain and smiled: "They said you are the number one center in the league now, and said that you are very similar to the Sharks. If you don't say anything else, your free throw... Haha, darn!"
The referee looked at him with a sharp look. Shi Fo quickly shut up and returned to his expressionless face. Chamberlain, who was originally depressed, became happy. He shouted: "Smile again, if you smile again, you will be sent out!"
This is also a wonder of the NBA. Duncan gives people the impression that he has no expression during the game and has almost no emotional fluctuations. This is also the source of his nickname "Stone Buddha".
However, it is not necessarily a good thing to stay calm. When people get used to someone's habits, once they show the other side, they will be regarded as abnormal. Duncan suffered a loss at this point, and this incident has not been long since passed, just last season, April 2007.
On April 16, 2007, the San Antonio Spurs challenged the Dallas Mavericks away. At that time, the fans of the American Airlines Center were frightened to see that the Spurs were still leading 70-68. The old referee Crawford was invincible in the third quarter. He first gave Duncan a technical foul. Seeing this, the old coach Popovich quickly protected his calf and put his treasure on the bench.
Then, Bowen bullied Terry in the small plane, and Clifford waved his hand, and Uncle San also ate a t.
Seeing this, Duncan, who had been sitting on the bench with his hands on his chin, was unwilling to be lonely and began to show his talent for telling cold jokes. He didn't know what to say to the players on the bench, but he was the only one laughing, and everyone else stared at the referee with anger on his face.
When Crawford waved his hands at Oberto again to punish the foul, Duncan was so happy that he leaned back and forth, which led the Spurs to laugh more deeply than helpless. Crawford was so excited at this moment that he was obviously quite sensitive to the voice behind him. After turning around, he first gave Duncan a cold look and then made a gesture.
Duncan was stunned at the time, the Mavericks were also stunned, and the fans of the American Airlines Center were also stunned: Tim Duncan, who is about to turn 31, has played in the NBA for 9 years, and will have his ninth regular season first team and his fourth championship ring in nine years. In the honor room, there are two regular season MVPs and three finals MVP trophy guys - he was sent off for the second time in his career.
The camera was selected as the number one funny shot of the NBA year. The funniest thing is that after eating the T-t, Duncan thought it was someone else, and turned his head to joke about the brother next to him too high-profile. However, when Crawford made the T-t-t-tender No. 21, Duncan was stunned. He stood up in a daze, but he didn't react for a while.
For this reason, the old referee Crawford was suspended indefinitely by the league. The old referee was selfless and had a good reputation in the league. Many new referees have received his favors: the new referee will be bullied by the stars when entering the NBA. When Crawford brings the new referee, as long as there is any star who dares to do anything, he will definitely beat the star who is blown away by the fact that he is better than not to give up.
So Duncan has offended many referees in the league since then. They are paying attention to Duncan. Not to mention Shi Buddha making small moves, it is dangerous to change his expression.
Seeing Duncan defeated, Chamberlain felt very relieved, and the free throw in the next free throw was very safe and he hit it directly.
But immediately, the Spurs also cooperated with each other, Finley broke through and passed the ball to Duncan, and Duncan made a second high jump shot and hit the board again!
Seeing this, Old Nelson was furious, Evans looked helpless. He had tried his best, but he was no match for Duncan at all. Chamberlain had no choice but to take action to fight himself, but the Spurs' momentum had already been played out. Taking advantage of Duncan pulling Chamberlain to a high position, Parker and Finley all ravaged the Spurs' basket, and the Warriors' offense continued to make a breakthrough, relying on Billups' breakthrough to cause Finley to foul, and the Warriors opened the situation again.
But the problem is that a sharpshooter with a big heart like Billups actually only made one of two free throws, so the Spurs led the Warriors 9-2, and Old Nelson had to hand over a timeout.
Billups looked at the Spurs' ring with a confused look on his face. He asked Chamberlain depressedly: "You think it was the San Antonio man who cast damn magic on the ring? It's fucking that I can't miss the penalty."
Ellis nodded repeatedly and said, "No, not bad, it's probably true!"
Looking at Ellis who kept making excuses himself, Old Nelson wanted to slap him to death with the tactical board in his hand: he made three consecutive shots, one of two mid-range shots, and he actually made a blacksmith!
After the timeout, Ginobili took off his coat and started warming up to play. Old Nelson waved his hand, Barnes pulled Ellis to the bench with a smirk, and West also appeared with red eyes.
"Roar!" West roared to the sky when he appeared, infecting his teammates with his crazy passion. Chamberlain also came on the court, Duncan pulled him and whispered: "Rookie, that kid is said to have rabies? I think this should be true? What was he just called?"
Chamberlain: "Did you fuckin't you **** me on purpose?"
After West started running tirelessly after he came on the court, but this tactic was difficult to work against Ginobili.
Ginobili has flexible steps, keen judgment and impeccable court attitude. Although he is not a defensive master, and he likes gambling defense when he first entered the league, he gradually changed these bad defensive habits. With the best defense masters like Bruce Bowen, Ginobili grew up very quickly on the defensive end, and his close defense already has the flavor of Bowen.
For one hundred, Ginobili performed well when facing counterparts with average physical conditions and higher ball quotients. Due to physical confrontation ability, it was a bit difficult to defend the high power outside line, such as Pitrus and Pierce. Every time they met Ginobili, they were not as good as death.
Ginobili's team has the first-class defense and knows how to use the power of his friends to complete defense. He has super strong ability to switch positions and has high attainments in using the inside to compress opponents' breakthroughs. West happens to be good at using the latter offensive method.
West ran very fast. When he got the ball, Ginobili was just thrown away by him, but in front of him, Oberto was waiting for him with a sneer: Ginobili was deliberately lagging behind, and he was going to force West to Oberto.
Seeing this, West was not panicked and immediately stabilized his lower body and passed the ball to Chamberlain. Ginobili quickly reached out and stole the ball directly. He was waiting for this opportunity!
After the steal, Ginobili found a poisonous snake in his prey. He rushed to the front court quickly. When he reached the three-point line, he deliberately broke through with Billups, attracted the opponent's attention and passed the ball to Parker. The sports car rushed to the basket with a drop of two points.
The atmosphere in the at&t center was about to explode. The fans screamed wildly, venting their excitement in their hearts for the team's lead.
Few teams can play 11-2 at the opening game when they face the Warriors.
Chamberlain began to worry. No matter what tactics or strategies he was carrying Duncan in the penalty area, he reached out to ask for the ball. Billups signaled him to pull it out, but Chamberlain wanted to play singles by himself. At this time, he believed in his ability more, because during the regular season, didn’t he beat Duncan several times?
The so-called top power forward in history, but that's what Chamberlain said to Duncan.
Seeing that Chamberlain was stubborn, Billups could only pass the ball with a wry smile. As soon as Chamberlain got the ball, Oberto immediately came back from outside the penalty area and completed double-teaming with Duncan. As for Evans? Who cares!
