Chapter 991 I have the privilege not to pass the ball
Chapter 999 I have the privilege not to pass the ball

On the night of Game 3, the Knicks were the first to win the game.

Wilson had a high fighting spirit, held the ball from the outside, faced Jordan alone, stopped and pulled up after two dribbles, and scored a long two-pointer inside the three-point line, the worst shot in theory.

He made such a bad shot, and then officially blew the horn of counterattack against Jordan.

"Mitch, you don't think every game is as good as the second?"

The Wilson who was not afraid of Jordan and kept attacking Jordan appeared again.

This is not the Wilson his teammates are familiar with, but it can already bring enough help.

On the Trail Blazers side, Thomas couldn't find the feel of his long-range shots, and his offense was blocked.

Ewing manned Sabonis full-time.

If Sabonis wants to get the ball in the high post, Ewing will accompany him in the high post.

The Knicks are not like the Trail Blazers. Even if there is no center under the basket, they will not be bad at protecting the basket. Kemp's ability to protect the basket is comparable to that of a center.

For a while, the two sharp knives on the offensive end of the Blazers were ineffective.

Thomas was restricted from shooting and Sabonis was suppressed by Ewing.

The Knicks are winning streaks.

It started 6-0.

This scene made the Blazers home announcer Bill Sheneri extremely dissatisfied: "In our own home court, the Blazers should be more powerful. They have no reason to back down. MJ is the best player in the league, Chuck is the best power forward in the league, Isiah is the best No. [-] in the league, Sabo and Nance are the league's No.

Under the touting of the best in the league and the number one in the league by She Nili, the Trail Blazers shown in front of the fans is a team with obvious loopholes.

Especially in front of the Knicks, their loopholes are more obvious.

Stockton was crushed by the Blazers' defensive switching tactics, unable to fully utilize his ability to start tactics.

But for a monster like Stockton who is so old that he seems to have learned to play in the womb, directly getting assists is only one of the ways to affect the team.

Stokes understands how basketball works.

He'll pass the ball up, starting with a good first pass.

Stockton's first pass was enough to open the gap in the Blazers' defense.

The person who received the ball was Ewing in the high position. He handed Wilson a hand on the spot and then caught the screen.

Wilson accelerated, and Sabonis, who chose to switch defenses, was thrown off his defensive position before he even had time to switch defenses in front of him.

Jordan can only leave Miller.

In normal play, Wilson would pass the ball to Miller.

But now, he only has eyes on himself.

Jordan's arrival won't affect his decision.

"Shh!"

Wilson made a right-handed throw in front of the paint and made a hollow hit.

That's a good offensive option even without passing the ball, let alone when he makes it.

That's why Miller resented him.

There are a lot of balls that Wilson used to pass that he doesn't pass now.

"I don't like how Benj plays," Tomjanovich said bluntly. "He wasn't like this before."

Zhao Yuanzheng asked with a smile: "Why not?"

Tomjanovich looked at Zhao Yuanzheng, not understanding why he said that.

"Rudy, have you forgotten?" Zhao Yuanzheng talked about what happened back then, "Benj is a person who dared to abandon the tactics and choose his own shots after Coach Lu arranged the lore tactics."

Zhao Yuanzheng's mention also brought Tomjanovich's thoughts back to 8 years ago.

That was indeed what Wilson looked like in the first place.

It's just that his subsequent transformation was so perfect and impressive that everyone forgot what he looked like back then.

"It's easy to follow your nature, but it's not easy to betray your nature."

For Zhao Yuanzheng, Wilson was just being himself.

Louis, who was watching silently, didn't think so. This wasn't the real Wilson either.However, who can be sure that this must not be him?Louis has no evidence, just like he can't say that the perfect Wilson in the past was a person deliberately created by the other party.

People are inherently complicated.

After being beaten 8-0, the Blazers called a timeout.

Riley flew into a rage, his roar reaching the Knicks' bench.

The most ear-piercing sentence is - "Chuck, why the hell are you doing nothing on the court, and get out if you don't want to fight!"

But what no one knew was that Barkley replied to Riley: "If you don't give me the ball, how can I play?"

On the Knicks side, some dog-licking players began to praise Louis for his ingenuity, anticipating that Barkley would not have a big effect in advance, so there was no defensive arrangement against Barkley.

In fact, it's not that Louis counted it, it's just a basic respect for the rules of the game.

For a lineup like the Trail Blazers, under normal circumstances, it is already rare to be able to evenly distribute the ball to Thomas and Jordan. Now there is another high-level supporting right of Sabonis.

With three cores on the offensive end, the role of others will naturally be weakened.

But Louie did not dare to underestimate Barkley. During the timeout, he emphasized that Barkley would shoot for him if he wanted to shoot. If he chose to hit the basket, he would double-team with a pocket formation.

This is the most basic routine to deal with Barkley.

Back then, the Celtics used this set to fight Dr. J. It tried a lot, but it didn't work much when it was put on Barkley, because the Alabama fat boy has more offensive weapons.

Back from the timeout, the Blazers really handed over the task of breaking the deadlock to Barkley.

Barkley did not disgrace his mission, and forcibly rushed in alone with a pocket array.

When he shot, it was against the defense of Ewing and Wilson.

Two of the Knicks' best three defenders came to pick him up and none of them stopped him.

Barkley forced the ball into the basket, breaking the Blazers' scoring drought.

"You still have to rely on me!"

Barkley swung his arms back to defend.

Everyone had nothing to say, Barkley's offense just now was just one word: tough!

In the face of this kind of attack, no matter whether it is an opponent or a teammate, they will not make excuses, that is the embodiment of personal ability.

Barkley revived the situation.

The Blazers' offense broke the scoring drought, and their defense was more active than before.

Stockton's positional warfare is still dominated by tactical offense.

This time the Blazers still limit the Knicks by switching defenses

But this time the defense coordination was not good, and the person who switched to Stockton was Barkley.

Barkley was in front of him, and even a person like Stockton, who lacked the ability to make a breakthrough, came to the spirit and broke through at full speed.

The great Charles Barkley, he doesn't frown on the offensive end when he hits three or even four.

Unexpectedly, the defensive end could allow someone like Stockton to pass in one step.

Louie was still in shape the last time he saw Stockton step by.

It can be seen that Barkley is a basketball player who has truly broken away from low-level fun.

He can increase the confidence of players on both sides at the same time on the court, and indirectly make the game more exciting.

Stockton is exceptionally light, and the Blazers also know what kind of material Barkley is when defending, and the supplementary defense is already ready.

It was Nance who went to make a clearance, and it was Kemp who was let go.

Stockton made a wonderful pass to Kemp.

As a result, Kemp missed an open shot.

Fortunately, Ewing grabbed the offensive rebound, and Sabonis' tall body that seemed to penetrate the clouds was right behind him.

Ewing did not choose to force, but returned to Miller on the outside.

Miller was marked by Jordan, so naturally he had no chance, but the Blazers' defensive formation has been torn apart after this round of cutting, and they can't organize effective defense at all.

Outside of Jordan and Sabonis, there's basically no one in the right position.

Miller passes the ball to Wilson.

Jordan immediately gave up Miller to defend Wilson.

Miller is ready to catch and shoot the ball. As long as Wilson has the heart, he can play with Jordan who is running back and forth.

The result made him angry. Seeing Jordan's defense chasing him, Wilson didn't pass back. Instead, he chose to face the opponent's defense and make a strong three-pointer.

"Benjamin? You fucking!" Miller yelled.

After all, Jordan's defense is not a display, the shot is interfered, it is difficult to hit, the ball flies outward, and the Blazers use this to fight back.

When Miller returned to the backcourt, full of resentment and anger, he directly kicked the ball away and was called a technical foul by the referee.

But instead of making things difficult for the referee, he turned to Wilson and yelled, "Are you fucking dissatisfied with me? Why are you ignoring my vacancy? What the hell are you thinking?"

In terms of seniority in the league, Wilson is a year older than Miller, but everyone knows that Miller was Wilson's older brother at UCLA.

At this time, Wilson had no intention of repenting or apologizing. He looked at Miller without changing his face, and said coldly, "I don't need to explain everything to you."

Wilson walked to the referee and left a sentence without looking back: "I have the privilege not to pass the ball."

This privilege is given by the coach, if you have a problem, go to the coach - does he mean that?
With red eyes, Miller turned around and was about to start cursing, but saw Wilson talking about the referee calling him a technical foul.

Although Wilson came forward, Miller will definitely be punished by the referee for playing football in full view to vent his anger.

Therefore, the technical foul was not canceled, and the Blazers got two free throws and one throw.

Miller was almost stunned by Wilson's words, and wanted to find Louis, but Louis didn't mean to ask, and then he went to Ewing: "How long are you going to let Benj leave the team?"

"He left the team? Reggie, what you said is a bit ignorant." Ewing was still in the mood to joke, "The whole team negotiated with the referee about Benj being called a technical foul for you."

Miller was furious: "This is a fucking different thing. He not only doesn't pass the ball to me, he doesn't pass the ball to others when it is not necessary. He didn't do this before, you know it!"

Ewing really felt that Wilson was acting alone, but the team was leading. Moreover, Wilson was in a good state, and it was understandable that he was alone.

"It's nothing big, don't take it to heart."

Ewing said so to Miller.
