Chapter 416 Show your power!

Courtside auditorium, Kobe and Wade are on the scene, they are aware of this.

"Sun seems to have been testing the Spurs' defensive limits." Kobe said indifferently. Although he came to San Antonio according to Phil Jackson's suggestion, he didn't bother Sun Zhuo after he got here. He knew that the Magic was in a very delicate stage.

Wade naturally knows this too. Although he hasn't experienced what Kobe and Sun Zhuo have experienced, O'Neal showed him that the Heat are Wade's team on the first day he came to the Heat.

Wade was not curious about Sun Zhuo's behavior, no matter whether Sun Zhuo was probing or what, it had already proved that Sun Zhuo was trying to attack and compete for this FMVP, he was more curious about Howard's next reaction.

Howard soon returned to the court. Now Howard can no longer be used as the core. Even if Howard grabs the rebound himself, he will choose whether to attack according to the defense. If he is not sure, he must be the first time. spread out.

After nearly two quarters, Howard didn't score in double figures, and Sun Zhuo scored close to 20 points. Howard was a little depressed, but suddenly thought in his heart: "I didn't have a chance to play in offense, but in defense, I still It can be like before!"

The value of Howard in this year's finals is not only scoring, but also defense. The FMVP selection will never only look at scoring. Defense is also a very important factor.

As a result, Howard began to focus more on defense. For the Duncan he was defending, he basically couldn't block Duncan's shots. If Duncan shot from the outside, he would definitely shoot when Howard was not that close. Next, Duncan will use his body to squeeze Howard away first, or trick Howard with his skills before making a shot. It is very difficult to defend Duncan, and Howard dare not make a rash move, for fear of being cheated and fouled.

What Howard thinks is to block shots when helping to defend, to block other Spurs players, not to block the matchup.

Among the other players, Tony Parker and Ginobili are the most troublesome insiders. They will always rush in from time to time for layups and sneak attacks. Howard feels that he only needs to be more alert...

"Ginobili's snake breakthrough! Dunk! Beautiful!" Yu Jia, like most Chinese fans, naturally hoped that the Magic led by Sun Zhuo would win, but he also sincerely praised the opponent's good performance.

Zhang Weiping also likes the Spurs team very much, and praised: "Ginobili is really fast, like a gust of wind, he slipped in and dunked with both hands. Howard tried to block the shot, but he couldn't catch up."

Yu Jia nodded and said: "Yes, at this speed, the Magic can catch up with the exception of Sun Zhuo, but unfortunately Sun Zhuo can't predict Ginobili's rush in and dunk in advance. If Sun Zhuo is an inside player, standing in Howard's position , this ball, it is estimated that it can be capped."

Zhang Weiping also agrees very much.

At the scene, Ginobili's dunk and Howard's failed block made the audience cheer excitedly, but Sun Zhuo dismissed the cheers. He has firmly remembered Ginobili's behavior and will challenge again later , he will not let Ginobili succeed again.

Howard still maintains a very active defensive attitude. After that, he missed Manu Ginobili, missed Tony Parker, and covered Finley instead.

"Okay!" After Howard successfully blocked the shot, he was also very excited.

At this time, Sun Zhuo also noticed that Howard was continuing to maintain his terrifying performance on the defensive end.

"Howard has not only scored well in these few games, but also has a terrifying performance on the defensive end. Not only do I have to score higher than him, but I also have to perform defensively. But my current defense is mediocre, and I can only challenge again later. At the time, he took away a block or two that belonged to him."

Sun Zhuo also kept Howard's cover firmly in mind.

As the game progressed, due to Sun Zhuo's low scoring efficiency, Howard failed to continue his good performance. In addition, the Spurs were united as one, and soon the game fell into the Spurs' situation and was finally won by the Spurs.

Having won this game, the Spurs players felt relieved, but Popovich felt strange. This was different from what he predicted, and it felt less challenging.

Although Sun Zhuo also scored 38 points, he obviously could score 40+ or ​​more, but he didn't pursue it, and he didn't panic or feel depressed when he lost the game.

"His reaction now is as if the game hasn't finished yet, they haven't lost yet, how could this be?" Popovich was very puzzled.

Popovich is also the opponent who likes to study Sun Zhuo the most in the league. Sometimes he really wants to bring Sun Zhuo to the Spurs to coach in person, so that he can figure out what Sun Zhuo is thinking every day.

Before leaving the field, Sun Zhuo left Popovich with a meaningful and mysterious smile, and then, after a short rest in the locker room, he started the game again!
"You used a match repeat challenge card, and you have one match repeat challenge card left in this season!"

……

Time went back to before the game, Sun Zhuo used the game to repeat the challenge card, this time, his score is definitely not only 38 points, except for the score, other statistics are the same!
"My stats in the first three games were mediocre. In this game, let me do my best!"

The game restarted, the two sides jumped the ball in the middle circle, and Howard jumped to the ball. The first offense still let Howard single Duncan.

"Howard can't get in." When Howard was about to hook, Sun Zhuo already knew the result.

Yu Jia: "Howard shot! Missed... oh! Sun Zhuo! Sun Zhuo dunked in!"

Zhang Weiping was also taken aback: "Hey, when did Sun Zhuo sneak in? This kind of supplementary dunk is very rare, because the Magic's offense just now let Howard hit one by one, and everyone opened up to Howard. It was impossible for Sun Zhuo to be at the side just now, and Howard's shooting position was close to the basket, Sun Zhuo had to predict in advance to grab this rebound before Duncan or Howard."

Bo Wen, who was defending Sun Zhuo, was stunned. He never expected that Sun Zhuo would suddenly run to the basket. Howard hadn't even made a shot just now.

"How did he know that Dwight would miss? Or did they discuss it?" Bowen froze for a moment, then glanced at Popovich off the court. Popovich didn't respond with any expression.

Keep playing!
"It's Parker's turn to make a mistake." Sun Zhuo remembers it very clearly, and knows that Parker's near-miss will still happen again this time, even if Sun Zhuo makes up the ball that Howard didn't score before, it still won't matter Change, because whether it was before or now, the Spurs will play the established tactics. These two times, the Spurs have no chance to fast break, and the defense they encounter is exactly the same.

Duncan went up to cover with Parker, and Parker changed direction to dribble, sure enough!In the same position, the ball hit Monta Ellis' calf and bounced towards the midfield position.

Sun Zhuo predicted these things, but still did not act, he was waiting, waiting for Duncan to save the ball.

"Duncan flew to save the ball! He really worked hard!" Yu Jia yelled.

Sun Zhuo is still waiting, waiting for Duncan to pass the ball.

When Duncan flashes the ball back to Tony Parker...

Whoosh!
Sun Zhuo turned on the S+ speed, drifted past Tony Parker like a gust of wind, and took the basketball away by the way.

"What?" Parker was terrified, and Duncan was also terrified, but they couldn't do anything to Sun Zhuo. Sun Zhuo had already passed halftime and was walking towards the empty frontcourt!

"Wow! Steal! No one is defending, Sun Zhuo is about to dunk! Dunk from the free throw line!!" Yu Jia didn't realize that when he said "dunk from the free throw line", everyone's eardrums were almost broken. Zhuo, he waited too long, everyone waited too long.

Zhang Weiping also smiled and said: "Haha, I'm back, that omnipotent Sun Zhuo is back again, I can't go wrong with his eyes!"

At this moment, Popovich's expression was very bad. Although he was going to let Sun Zhuo score in this game, he was not allowed to score like this. Moreover, until this moment, Popovich has not really started to "unblock" Sun Zhuo. .

Popovich really wants to fight against Sun Zhuo, and then use all the defense to seal Sun Zhuo, but, in this way, Howard will play a dominant performance again, and Sun Zhuo will perform from time to time, and this victory will be suspended again .

"Okay, if you want to compete with Dwight Howard for the FMVP, then let you do it." Popovich immediately unblocked Sun Zhuo.

Soon, Howard encountered various double-team defenses and malicious fouls, making it impossible for him to attack inside.

"Damn it, the Spurs are forcing me to pass the ball to Sun. Did Sun do something to Popovich in private!" Howard was very dissatisfied with the defense he encountered and began to make frequent mistakes.

Agent Feigen was also in a big headache: "It's not good, Dwight's condition has dropped significantly, and Sun scored in double figures not long after the opening, and he had rebounds and steals. It seems that Sun is serious. He wants to follow up. Dwight grabs FMVP!"

In the previous game, Sun Zhuo failed to hit a lot of tentative attacks. After knowing what kind of defense the opponent will make, this time, Sun Zhuo can already change the result.

It was also a low-post singles game. Seeing other people double-teaming, he quickly passed the ball to Monta Ellis, and then Sun Zhuo immediately ran to the bottom corner, caught the ball, and lifted the basketball high...

This time, Sun Zhuo didn't shoot directly, he knew that Bo Wen would follow up to block the shot without hesitation.

"What?" Bowen rushed forward and almost jumped up. He said that he was going to be a normal defensive person, and now he might have lost his position or jumped up.

"His body control ability is really good." Sun Zhuo was also surprised, thinking that Bao Wen would jump up directly, but even if he didn't jump, it didn't matter, Sun Zhuo had already tricked Bao Wen.

Immediately, Sun Zhuo pulled the ball down again and pretended to make a breakthrough. Bo Wen retreated instantly, and Sun Zhuo shot a three-pointer directly.

Swish!
Snapped!
Bao Wen hit Sun Zhuo's wrist, 3+1!

"Wow, these actions are really exciting, Bowen's defense is already very good." Wade exclaimed.

Kobe also nodded and said: "Sun's performance in this game is really different from the previous three games, especially in terms of self-confidence. Before, I felt that he didn't dare to shoot, but now he shoots very resolutely."

After playing a 3+1, Sun Zhuo used almost the same method to score another three-pointer at a 45-degree angle at the top of the arc!

Soon, Sun Zhuo's score broke through 20 points!
"So fast, he scored so fast." Seeing Sun Zhuo scoring like a rocket, Howard was a little flustered. If he continued to score like this, Sun Zhuo might score [-] or [-] points in this game!In this case, wouldn't Sun Zhuo surpass himself in scoring after one game?
"No, he scores too fast, he can't compare with him in scoring, but in terms of defensive data, he can't compare with me." Howard thought about continuing to perform well on defense, even if he lost a little in scoring, he couldn't beat me in rebounding. In terms of balls and blocks, Howard also has an absolute advantage, and the FMVP will still give him the time.

"Block, I want to block!" Howard will target Tony Parker and Ginobili on these two people.

Soon, Ginobi broke through in a serpentine shape and went straight into the penalty area, wanting to dunk with both hands!

"Oops, I can't keep up!" Howard wanted to block Ginobili, but Ginobili's speed was too fast, Howard couldn't catch up at all.

Snapped!
Just when Howard thought that Ginobili would successfully complete the dunk, a figure suddenly flew in front of him, and Sun Zhuo hit the ball all at once.

"What?" Howard was stunned. He was so close to the basket and didn't have time to block Manu Ginobili. Sun Zhuo, an outside player, reacted so quickly?
Ginobili hangs his hands on the basket, but the ball has already been thrown by Sun Zhuo, and the scene was stunned. After Sun Zhuo got the ball again, he immediately launched a fast break. Howard also ran desperately behind. If it hits, Howard can follow up and make up the buckle.

However, Sun Zhuo did not give Howard this chance.

With one European step, Sun Zhuo directly buckled Bo Wen out!

"Eurostep buckle! Oh my God!"

"The referee blew his whistle, what? Bowen's foul?"

The magic bench was all boiling, and so were all Sun Zhuo's fans. Sun Zhuo, whom they had been looking forward to for a long time, finally came back!

Bruce Bowen used to know that Sun Zhuo was good at dunking in the European step, but in the past three games, Sun Zhuo was banned from running and jumping, so he forgot about it.

"The silence in the past three games has made people forget how terrible it is for Sun to go crazy. This time, Sun will have a big explosion." Kobe smiled, and then glanced at Popovich's face, he already knew Popovich's strategy, Kobe wants to know whether Popovich can still hold his breath now.

On the Internet, after Sun Zhuo was completely unblocked, countless netizens also commented.

"This is the most valuable player! Even if the rebound and block data is not as good as Howard, the FMVP should belong to Sun Zhuo!"

"No wonder Popovich restricted Sun Zhuo so hard in the first three games. I really can't let him go. Once he is allowed to rush, no one can stop him."

Soon, Sun Zhuo's personal score exceeded 30 points, and the Magic also led the Spurs.

Popovich frowned: "Isn't it going to be 1:3?"
