346 The Return of the King
346 The King is Returning
The suspension of the old KR spoon did not alleviate the dilemma of the Dream Team. The Dragon Team performed so poorly before that even captain Yao Ming left the court. They had long been full of contempt for it - they took the opponent in minutes and then took away the World Championship champion that had been six years later. This is their common idea.
Chamberlain's sudden return to the dream team caught him off guard. Old K wanted to change players when he was timed up, but when he did this, even the good-tempered James couldn't help it: "H6, we were just not ready for a while, you may not underestimate us too much. Is our lineup not the opponent of those guys on the other side?"
Lao K is a famous coach, but his influence is more in the NCAANHAI players respect him, but they are not afraid of him. In other words, in fact, in the Meng Ba team, Lao K is not a commander with absolute power.
NHAR players are superstars with a net worth of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars. They may be low-key, but in fact they are all the same arrogance and pride in their bones. They are not NCAAI players who have not received their salary. In their eyes, the latter is just children.
If the game goes well, for example, how the Dream Team plays like in the first quarter, it is easy for Lao K to rotate the lineup. Now that the Dream Team is hindered, it will be difficult for Lao K to rotate the lineup: Superstars don’t want to leave an impression on the fans that are inferior to others. What does it mean to substitute people at this time? It is obvious that you don’t believe in our abilities.
Old K just symbolically replaced Bosh and replaced Bozer, James and Wades refused to end, while Old Jia said that when dealing with the Dragon Team, he wanted a shooter and a super point guard who could host quick attacks and quick counterattacks, but he couldn't change to anyone.
Five players walked on the court, and Lao K was a little helpless for a moment. He finally understood Larry Brown's depression at the 204 Athens Olympics. Now there are no thorns in his team, but what about at the Athens Olympics? Marbury, Iverson, these two people alone have to be enough for Larry Brown to have a pot of drink.
Boozer's low-post offensive skills are still very solid. Once he pulled into the penalty area, Chamberlain could not go out to assist in defense and make up for defense. Wade presided over the attack and broke through in the middle to attract double-team pass Reed. The latter finally had the opportunity to show himself and made a steadily jump shot.
But he has never had a chance to perform since he was on the court. Reed did not make the ball. Chamberlain won the rebound quickly and threw it to Zhang Qingpeng on the outside.
The team missed one after another, and Wade showed all his strength. As soon as Zhang Qingpeng got the ball, he went up to press. His strong body squeezed Zhang Qingpeng, as if a strong rhino was chasing an antelope. However, this time, the rhino ran faster than an antelope.
Zhu Fangyu stepped forward in time. After receiving the ball, he quickly changed direction, pulled the ball with his backhand and got the open space with James, and quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.
Without Yao Ming, the Chinese team played a rare flexible tactic. Wang Zhizhi's speed was the slowest one, but it was enough to keep up with the rapid transfer of the ball. Chamberlain ran faster than Zhu Fangyu who dribbled the ball. Seeing that Zhu Fangyu was entangled by James, he immediately took the position and shouted: "Give the ball to me."
The ball flew down like a meteor, Chamberlain grabbed the ball with one hand, he looked back and saw Boozer defending himself, with two thick eyebrows raised vigorously, like two crazy swords slashing down fiercely, full of murderous aura
With his strong shoulders leaning forward, Boozer couldn't bear the power and couldn't help but take a step back. Chamberlain's strength stimulated his blood and violence. Faced with Chamberlain's upcoming second wave of impact, he roared like a hungry tiger, and his legs like two pillars stood on the ground, gathering all his strength to withstand Chamberlain.
But he was disappointed. After a collision, Chamberlain did not attack again, but shook his shoulder and changed direction, pressed against Boozer's body and rushed forward, passing him directly.
Boozer turned his head in shock, Howard came up from the flank, and he hurriedly shouted: "Repair the defense"
It was too late, and the penalty area in the PIBA are much smaller than that in NH. In Chamberlain's eyes, the distance between the free throw line and the basket was too short. After taking two steps, it flew up. Howard jumped up behind and wanted to block the block. Chamberlain grabbed the ball with one hand and raised it to the top of his head. Howard then reached out and slapped the ball in his hand. Then, he pulled the ball from front and threw it on the ring, avoiding Howard's block.
"Beautiful Trolley" Xu Jicheng, who was partnering with Zhang Weiping, shouted loudly, "It's really hard to believe, who can tell me who is laying? I think Iverson, who is two meters tall and three, came to the court and changed his direction and jumped the trolley, this is Iverson."
In fact, Chamberlain's speed and elegance are far worse than Iverson's, but the height difference between the two is thirty centimeters. At the same speed, it would be just as exciting.
Howard clapped his hands in annoyance, and the fans in the stands were crazy, with a climax of 100, and the Chinese men's basketball team played a climax of 100.
The score suddenly returned to single digits, and the Chinese team was only seven points behind the Dream Team, and it seemed that the score was not far away.
But it is still far away. Chamberlain's assault was caught off guard by the Dream Team. However, the Dream Team's strength is far above the Chinese team. Although Chamberlain is brave, he lost to four hands with both fists. The Chinese team has a tiger like him, but there are five evil wolves on the other side.
James and Wade joined forces to attack, one attracted Chamberlain's attention and the other took advantage of the situation to jump, and the air relay sounded the counterattack horn.
Chamberlain was even more murderous. He asked for the ball at the basket. Howard and Boozer came up to double-team together. Chamberlain turned around and hooked his hands and layup, hit it
The cooperation between Howard and Boozer is actually perfect. The former has strong upper limbs but slightly weak lower limbs. The latter is the opposite, the lower limbs are strong and weak upper limbs. The two of them surrounded Chamberlain, which was enough to block him. However, Chamberlain's fake move just now was very realistic, and he actually tricked the two of them to jump up at the same time.
At this time, the people of the Dream Team suddenly realized that Chamberlain opposite them was no longer the stupid boy who could only dunk. He could break through with the ball, turn around, hook and even pull poles.
Old Nelson saw the change in the expressions of the opponent's old K and NHAI stars, and a proud smile appeared on his face: "I will not hesitate to change the team's inside pillar and core boss. You laughed at me for being crazy at that time. Now, who is the crazy person?"
Old K didn't care about taking care of the superstars' faces, so he immediately changed the team. Both veterans Kobe and Kidd took the lead. The small forward was matched with Prince, who had mid-range shooting ability and started as a defense.
The Dream Team's defense is very tough. The five of them are like forming a large net that is not leaking and traps the opponent.
Chamberlain was a tiger shark with a fierce temper. Facing this iron net, the king in the sea resisted strongly. He rushed left and right, rushed around the inside line, killing the penalty area and the opponents were silent.
Howard and Boozer were used to the NHAR spoon rules. After coming to PIBA, they were a little lost and only played 50% or 60% of their entire skills. If they returned to the NHA, they were determined to deal with Chamberlain, the latter would definitely not be able to take care of it. As a result, they were now unable to take care of it.
After the second quarter, the Chinese team not only did not collapse, but instead clamped on the score with 344.
During the intermission, Howard wiped the sweat from his face and said depressedly: "Damn, why did this kid suddenly become so powerful? I remember that he was not my opponent when he was in the NHAR spoon. Today I have to admit that he played well."
They are all their own people, and no one has the nerve to expose Howard's cowhide. Even in NH, they can take advantage of you, right? But indeed, Chamberlain has become more powerful today than before, and he has already beaten Howard to look for his teeth.
In 2 minutes of the first half, Chamberlain scored 2 points, 1 rebound and 6 blocks, and his performance was incredible.
"Do you want someone to do a urine test for him? I think he must have taken stimulants," Bosh suggested. He just took two big hats from Chamberlain, and neither of them were in the penalty area, which made him feel very unhooked.
Kobe rolled his eyes. He had had a urine test before the game, and he didn't believe that Chamberlain would take excitement and quench his thirst because it was dependent, just like a person driving. When he was used to driving for 120 yards, he would never be able to drive for 60 yards.
In the third quarter, the Dream Team made plans and changed the lineup deployment in a targeted manner. They launched 2-joint defense. Two people from the outside forced themselves to continue to press against Chinese players, while two people in the inside double-team Chamberlain at any time. When he got the ball, they would be replaced by three people to serve him.
This tactic cannot be played in the NHA, because if two people on the outside dare to press on and three people on the inside deal with one person, as long as they actively transfer the position, there will definitely be opportunities for open positions. But at this time, there will be no problem. The Chinese team's outside are all big men, and their running is not as good as Chamberlaindo, who is inside.
Chamberlain held the ball in the penalty area, and Howard, Boozer and Anthony all surrounded him. When he saw that things were not good, he quickly passed the ball. Chen Jianghua ran up to receive it. Chamberlain passed the ball hard, but Chen Jianghua did not take a direct move, but habitually ran two steps towards the inside before jumping.
"Bang" Boozer blocked, Paul grabbed the ball, and pushed it into the frontcourt like lightning, and scored a basket.
Chamberlain grabbed the rebound and passed it to Yi Jianlian. Yi Jianlian failed to play Anthony alone, so he passed the ball to Chen Jianghua. Chen Jianghua actually wanted to break through when facing Paul. As a result, when he stepped past Paul, the ball was stabbed down. Paul passed the ball to Kobe, who made another layup in the fast break.
The Dream Team's advantage was once again opened up little by little. After all, Chamberlain was not an Iron Man. After all, he had a little reduced strength in the first-team attack of the first five in the first half.
At this moment, the fans suddenly cheered like a volcano erupting, and the sounds came one after another, as if a thousand cannons were roaring at the same time.
Under the gaze of the crowd, a big man walked out of the player's passage with great strides. He was not wearing a coat, but was just showing his robe. The golden ll number was dazzling and Yao Ming was back
At this time, there were four minutes left in the third quarter, and the Chinese team was behind with 4664 and the score was close to double digits again.
Nelson called for a timeout and immediately replaced Yao Ming. Xu Jicheng and Zhang Weiping were both a little dissatisfied and complained: "Yao Yao was on the court with a closed injection. He didn't count, so his head coach should have a count. How could he still let him on the court? He felt pain in the closed injection. His ankle injury was very serious."
Chamberlain also had this opinion. He showed a tough attitude towards Yao Ming for the first time and shouted: "Do you want to live? You will be ruined."
Yao Ming smiled apologetically to Chamberlain and said, "Sorry, Mr. Nelson and I lied to you. My ankle injury was not that serious, but my muscles were a little tired, which caused ankle soreness. Although I sprained my layup just now, it was nothing."
Chamberlain was stunned and shouted in disbelief: "Are you lying to me? Do you fool me?"
Seeing that his face was not right, Yao Ming quickly explained: "It's not all. My foot was indeed closed injection, but it's not as serious as you think. It's Mr. Nelson who doesn't allow me to play too early. I have to retain my energy to play in the fourth quarter. The reason why I didn't stay on the court but went to the locker room was because Mr. Nelson said that only if I leave can you realize all your potential."
