NBA backer king

Chapter 525
The referee gave Duncan a thug foul, and then Lao Wang made a free throw, but the Blazers called a timeout, wanting to interrupt the momentum of the Lakers, and let Duncan take a breath by the way, fearing that he would be injured.

The team's two major insiders were repeatedly dunked and dunked by the old K, and they were dunked continuously. The morale of the Blazers was also very low. After returning to the bench, each of them was very dull. They just wiped their sweat and drank water.

Behind the Trail Blazers bench, Paul Allen took a few breaths and relaxed.

His health is not good. Radiation therapy is very harmful to the body. In fact, he should not come to watch this kind of intense professional sports game. It is more suitable to sit in front of the TV and enjoy it quietly.

In front of him were Duncan and Dameng. Seeing that Duncan was panting after sitting down, the muscles on his neck and shoulders were tense, and he was even jumping, he knew that the super champion was in a very tense state.

He didn't find it strange, nor was he disappointed in Duncan, because no matter who it was, anyone in this league, including Jordan, was not qualified to take it lightly when facing the terrifying old K. Nervousness was the most normal emotion, not to mention that old K played too fiercely tonight.

He reached out and patted Duncan on the shoulder, stretched his head over and said, "Tim, take it easy."

Duncan turned around quickly and said, "I see, Mr. Allen."

Paul Allen nodded, leaned back in his chair, and stopped talking.

At this time, head coach Dunleavy came over and said to Duncan: "Tim, you have to be careful, old K is clearly targeting you, just like he targeted Sabonis when the Lakers played the Jazz.

You should try to avoid getting injured, and don’t confront him head-on. He has advantages in tonnage, strength, and height, and his explosive power is even stronger than yours. His current impact is not even lower than that of O’Neal. "

"I understand." Duncan nodded.

After the timeout, the game restarted. The game lasted only 3 minutes, and neither side made substitutions.

"brush!"

Pharaoh made an extra penalty.

粟群兴奋地道：“罚中了，今天老K的手感应该不错。现在是1罚1中，3投3中，拿到7分1助攻了。”

4:11, the Blazers attacked.

Flying Squirrel took the ball to the left wing, used Williams' pick-and-roll to break through, and attracted Lao Wang's supplementary defense when he reached the paint area, and then distributed the ball to Duncan, who made a further layup and hit a goal.

"This is the second time that Flying Squirrel has assisted Duncan. Be careful with his sudden scoring tactics. His speed is a threat, and he runs very fast even with injuries. Kobe should chase him closely." Zhang Lili immediately reminded.

"Duncan is still very stable after being attacked continuously by the iron army!" Su Qun also praised.

"Kobe, follow closely."

On the sidelines, Del Harris was a little anxious. The Blazers' outside defense was poor. Now it seems that his side is not much better. Mark Price and Kobe are both defensive loopholes!

"understood."

Bryant's face was a bit dark, this is the second time he was thrown off by the little mouse, and the terrible thing is that both times caused a loss of points.

The first thing he trained in the Suns was defense. If he continued to play like this, maybe at some point old K would roar at him like a lion.

6:11, the Lakers attack.

Lao Wang didn't have a strong position, took over from the outside, Mark Price organized the offense, made tactical gestures, and urged his teammates to move.

This time it was given to Richmond, singles against Williams, using the small to beat the big, or using a breakthrough to overwhelm the opponent, and then rush in, the same breakthrough tactic.

Duncan had no choice but to step up to make up the defense. At this time, Lao Wang immediately moved to the basket and Richmond threw a pass.

Dameng quickly returned to the basket and blocked in front of Lao Wang when he received the ball. Then Duncan returned to the defense and formed a front and rear double-team with Dameng on the left side of the basket.

But Lao Wang ignored their front and rear double-teaming. As soon as he caught the ball, before the double-team was completely close to squeeze all the space, he suddenly activated the withdrawal method and jumped up and sideways to get rid of the double-teaming of the two.

"Oops!" Su Qun exclaimed.

"Dameng's defense speed is so fast." Zhang Lili was amazed at the same time.

"what?"

But the next moment, seeing Lao Wang's jump, their eyes widened.

"Oops!"

Seeing the old K who was caught in the double-team suddenly jump out of the encirclement, Dameng knew that something was wrong, and it was inevitable that he would be dunked.

In the next moment, Pharaoh stood upright on the spot, with his left elbow stuck outwards, resisting Duncan who was blocking the shot from the side, holding the ball in his right hand, and smashing the basket hard.

Dameng took off sideways, blocked the block with one hand with his left hand, crossed Lao Wang's right arm, and failed to block the block.

"boom!"

The next moment, the basket above his head exploded, and he was dunked by Old K.

"ah!"

The Great Western Forum Arena once again responded with thunderous cheers, and the shouts of the live commentators lasted for a long time, which was heard by the audience.

"Dameng, you are old, you should retire." Old Wang grinned and spouted trash talk.

"Don't think about it, I want to win another championship before retiring." Dameng said unhappily.

"Unrealistic idea." Old Wang dropped his sentence and turned his head back to defend.

"This guy!" Dameng gritted his teeth angrily.

6:13, the Blazers attacked.

This time, Little Flying Squirrel did not break through with the ball. He was already injured and was traded by the Raptors. He made a few breakthroughs just now, and now he was a little tired, so he handed the ball to Ryder.

Ryder broke through with the ball on the right wing, and Mark Price, who was average in defense, failed to prevent the former's breakthrough, which was as embarrassing as Kobe.

The outside line was continuously sieved, and Del Harris on the sidelines just wanted to cover his face. In the tactical meeting before the game, he also said that his side's outside defense was stronger. Now it seems that it is a honeycomb full of holes, which means that the rock's defense is more reliable.

Fortson came up to defend, and Dameng immediately moved to the basket. Before Ryder broke into the paint, he immediately gave the ball to Dameng.

"squeak!"

Lao Wang quickly moved from the left side of the basket to the right side, blocking the front of Dameng, who made a ground pass and passed the ball past the former's feet.

"Special!"

While scolding, Lao Wang hurriedly dodged towards the bottom line.

"boom!"

Duncan was about to dunk the old K, but the old K flashed, only an empty basket was separated.

"Old K, Tangtang is active No.1, you are too shameless, turn around and block Tim, what are you running?" Dameng said angrily.

Old Wang glared at Dameng, and scolded: "Do you think that I, like you, have symptoms of being detained and abused?"

Dameng didn't bother to pay attention to the shameless old K, and said to Duncan: "Tim, if we join forces, sooner or later we will have to dunk him."

Duncan nodded and began to return to defense with confidence.

8:13, the Lakers attacked and called a timeout.

"Defense, perimeter defense, haven't you learned defense?" Harris asked angrily after the players came down
As a coach who attaches great importance to defense, he is very annoyed. He has built a defense for a season, but he is so stretched.

Lao Wang stretched out his head, glanced at Kobe, who was two positions past, and said, "Kobe, your defense in the first half was rubbish. From now on, you only defend but not attack, first defend the opponent and then talk about offense. Even if you really can't defend, you have to show your attitude, otherwise you will just sit below."

"OK."

Kobe's face twitched, and he could only nod in recognition of his bad luck.

As old K's apprentice, whether he is in the Suns or now in the Lakers, he has a lot of favorable treatment. He even became the main player in the finals in his rookie season, and his first championship ring is also rich in gold.

However, as an apprentice of Old K, Old K has stricter requirements on him, and often uses him to warn others.

In the words of old K, it is to kill the chicken to make an example to the monkey, and he is the chicken that was killed.

"Hmph, old K, when you die in the future, I'll make an example of others, and use your big head to scare others." He thought to himself.

Under Old K's warning, even all-star players like Mark Price, Mitchmond, and Chris Mullin tensed up.

Mark Price, in particular, is average defensively, and it will be troublesome if he is taken away from the main position. Behind him, Chris Mullin can replace him, and there is a second-year Fisher who has been eager to see his position.

Harris nodded appreciatively towards Pharaoh. The team is lucky to have such a leader.

The Lakers emphasize perimeter defense, as does the Blazers.

On the ABC live broadcast, Gomez said with a smile: "Fighting and fighting, both sides have the same problem, because they can't defend their opponents from the outside."

Elanton nodded with a smile and said, "The tactics are also the same, breaking points. Judging from this tactical choice, the coaching staff of both sides know the opponent's weaknesses very well, and they are very targeted."

Gomez said: "But in comparison, the Lakers' perimeter defense is slightly stronger. At least Rock's defense is okay and very tough. Kobe's defense is not bad, but his experience is poor. Today's defensive state is somewhat problematic. Only Mark Price is a real colander. He is old and his defense is mediocre."

At this time, the timeout has expired, the game restarts, and the Lakers attack.

Richmond held the ball and attacked on the left wing. He also played two breakthrough tactics and got an assist. This time he did not rush again.

He is also starting to get old, and his breakthrough ability is weakened. After a few breakthroughs, he has to take a rest.

"boom!"

Against Williams and missed a jumper, Dameng grabbed the backcourt rebound and the Blazers attacked.

The Blazers still attacked with the ball, staring at Mark Price's defensive loophole, broke through again successfully, and then distributed the ball to Dameng.

Dameng drove into the paint with the ball, forcing Lao Wang to defend. He and Duncan cooperated again and hung the ball over Lao Wang's head.

"squeak!"

Lao Wang suddenly took a step back, from Duncan with his back to the left side of the basket, to facing the basket, and then quickly took off to block the shot from the upper side.

"Snapped!"

Duncan took off with one foot, dunked with one hand, and smashed the ball into Lao Wang's palm, and the ball immediately jumped into the air.

"yeah!"

Countless Lakers fans cheered instantly.

Under the basket, Pharaoh, Duncan, and Dameng jumped to grab the ball at the same time. Under the front and back attack, he tapped the basketball and pointed it to the front of the basket, where Fortson was there.

"here."

As soon as Fortson got the ball, he heard Kobe's voice outside. He saw that Kobe had turned around and quickly threw it with both hands.

"Oops!"

When Zhang Lili saw the ball, it was too fast, too powerful, and not accurate enough for Kobe to catch it.

"Whoosh!"

Sure enough, the ball flew over two meters in front of Kobe and went straight out of the court.

Fortson was dumbfounded, and looked back at Old Wang, who glared at him and scolded: "Danny, you don't average an assist per game, how do you have the guts to pass the ball?"

He scratched his head, groaning, not daring to tell the difference.

Teilon Hill on the bench below is eager to try, old K, are you going to get the rookie off soon?

Zhang Lili said: "Fordson's passing ability is not good, he has no vision, and he has no ability to launch a fast break. It is reasonable for you to hand the ball to Tie Jun first. Such a mess is a waste of possession."

"That's right, Old K managed to defend against it with great difficulty." Su Qun also said.

In the 7th minute of the first quarter, the Lakers still led by 6 points, and they made substitutions first.

Fortson made a foul and was replaced by Hill, Mark Price was not in good condition and was replaced by Fisher, and Kobe was also replaced by Chris Mullin.

Five starters, leaving only Pharaoh and Richmond.

The Blazers' lineup is not thick enough. The big dream is gone, and the substitute insider Brian Grant is coming up.

Grant is the best substitute for the Trail Blazers. He has good rebounding ability and decent scoring.

He was seriously injured last season and only played [-] games. Before the injury, he was the main power forward of the Kings. After the injury, the Kings did not choose to renew their contract and joined the Trail Blazers as a free agent.

After more than three points, Lao Wang stormed the basket, made 2 of 2 shots, and 2 of 1 free throws. When riding the big dream, he exploded the inside line of the Blazers.

Looking back, he stared at Duncan again. Although Bryan Grant was good, Hill still had a little defense and didn't contribute much to the Blazers.

After the first quarter, at 23:32, the Lakers led by 9 points.

Lao Wang made 12 of 3 shots in the first 3 minutes of the quarter. Later, seeing that he played too aggressively, Dameng and Duncan also began to defend desperately, which had a good restrictive effect on him, preventing him from entering the basket and allowing him to make 6 of 3 shots outside. After Dameng went down, he attacked the basket again and made 2 of 2 shots.

Duncan played for 12 minutes. With the help of the breakthrough tactics, he performed well when Dameng was on the court. He made 5 of 3 shots and a 60% shooting rate. He scored 6 points and was not killed by Lao Wang.

But after the dream went down, it was difficult to support alone, and the offense couldn't go in. He made 3 of 1 shots and was defended by Lao Wang.

But a total of 8 shots were 4, and the shooting rate was 50%, which is actually not low, but he didn't get a free throw in the whole quarter.

Dameng played for seven and a half minutes, which was the main offensive point of the Blazers. He also beat Fordson, making 5 of 3 shots and 2 of 1 free throws. He scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, showing all-round performance.
