Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 989 The Crazy Butler
In the next round, Qin Hao advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. Seeing Wall coming forward, Qin Hao asked for a pick and roll. TT was about to step forward, but Butler took the lead.

I saw Butler stepping forward to pick and roll Qin Hao, Qin Hao moved to the right, Barkley's team switched defenses, Qin Hao passed the ball back to Butler, and it was Butler and Wall facing off at this time.

"Hey." Butler grinned, revealing a row of white teeth.

Seeing this smile, Wall was a little baffled. He always felt that Butler was smiling maliciously. Before he could figure it out, Butler had already made a move, took a tentative step, and then broke through to the left.

In terms of speed, Butler is naturally not as good as Wall, but Butler doesn't rely on speed to break through.Wall quickly withdrew to the card position, and then the two stuck together. Butler smirked, and Wall felt a strong attack. He quickly came to be proud of his excellent physical fitness, but at this moment there was only one opponent against Butler. It feels—hard, really hard.

Wall was in pain from being pushed, and backed involuntarily, but was squeezed away by Butler. Watching Butler hug the ball and rush into the inside line, he found a body to fight, and then hit the board.

This is just the beginning.

A moment later, it was another pick-and-roll switch, but Butler still singled him out.

But this time it went too far. Butler simply pushed down to the low post to play singles. He is much taller than Wall, and his weight and strength are also higher than Wall. He is almost a bulldozer.Wall gritted his teeth and was still retreating steadily. He turned his head and looked, but none of his teammates came up to help defend him, so angry in his heart.

You just watch me make a fool of myself?
"Bang!"

Suddenly, Butler turned around halfway, pushed Wall away with his buttocks, and jumped up with a two-handed dunk, pulling the basket into a scary arc.

The audience gasped, all worried about the basket, all kinds of screams and cheers came and went, and poor Wall became the background board.

"Don't you know how to defend?" Wall growled at his teammates.

Griffin frowned, Owen and George ignored him, only good brother Cousins ​​scratched his head and explained with a wry smile: "I was restrained by TT."

Wallen took a deep breath to calm himself down.

The Barkley team is not united. Griffin seems to have the biggest card, but it is not enough to convince others. Several starters, Wall is the No. [-] pick, and Irving is also the No. [-] pick. They are arrogant, and naturally no one is convinced. Who, they all have ideas about the mvp of the rookie game, how can they be willing to be a green leaf for Griffin?
Several players each had their own thoughts, so naturally they couldn't talk about cooperation, so seeing that Wall couldn't stand it, no one went up to help him defend.

"Okay, it's time for us to attack." Griffin assumed a big brother attitude.

However, all he got was blank stares, and even Wall couldn't help complaining, don't you only know this sentence?
Swish!
With a soft sound, Irving made a jumper.

This time it was the Barkley team who grabbed the rebound. After Griffin passed the ball to Irving, Irving went to the frontcourt in one go. He didn't pass the ball, played confidently, and indeed scored.

But turning around, Qin Hao breaks through to split the ball, attracts the defense, then hits the ground and passes it to Butler who cuts along the baseline on the left. Butler hugs the ball and jumps up, making another dunk.

"Beautiful pass." Butler excitedly clapped Qin Hao's hands.

After only a few minutes in the first quarter, he already scored 6 points. With Wall's two singles and Qin Hao's assist just now, he became the player with the most points on O'Neal's team.

With the help of a good brother, Butler was unstoppable. He made all 3 shots and rushed towards the mvp.

"beep"

The Barkleys called a timeout.

Qin Hao turned his head, glanced at Wall and the others, and couldn't help sighing secretly, Cousins, Griffin, George, Owen, Wall, in a few years, this will be an all-star lineup.Even now, each of them has shown their strength, and their strength is not weak, but it is a pity that they are not united, and they are fighting on their own, and their combat effectiveness may only be half exerted.

Team O'Neal here.

Everyone came to the field and surrounded the coach.

Everyone could see that Qin Hao was consciously feeding Butler the ball. Except for Qin Hao breaking through and scoring a goal at the beginning, he didn't take a single shot afterwards, all of which were breakthroughs.

Why is that?
Obviously, Qin Hao is not interested in the mvp. After all, he already won it last year. He is helping his good brother Butler, hoping that Butler can win the rookie game mvp.

In this regard, Clay, Xiaoka, and TT have no objections. Walker is also a little bit interested in the mvp, but he knows that most of his current strength will not be able to get it. After all, he is still a rookie.

As for Knight, Morris, Rubio, Monroe.

The three of Knight have no expectations for the MVP. Monroe has played very well this season, averaging 15+10 per game. He is naturally excited for the MVP, but he is very clear about who Qin Hao supports and who is the biggest contender for the MVP.

"Wait for Monroe, TT, Clay, you three come down and rest." Coach Stephen Cole and Coach Ron Adams discussed and began to make substitutions, "Morris, Leonard, Walker, you three superior."

The rookie game is the same as the All-Star game, with starters and substitutes. The playing time of the players will not be the same, and there may even be a big gap. But out of respect for each player, every player must Play, even if only for a few tens of seconds.

The three of them rotated, only Qin Hao and Butler remained unchanged. The two coaches had already expressed their attitudes, and the last struggle in Monroe's heart was extinguished.

After a moment, the pause ends.

The two sides returned to the court, and the Barkley team also changed players. Wall and George were replaced, and Jeremy Lin and Hayward were replaced.

Obviously, the head coach has realized that putting Wall, Irving, Griffin, Cousins, and George together will cause problems, so he replaced Wall and George, and replaced them with Jeremy Lin and Hayward who don't like to fight. , At the same time, separating Cousins ​​and Wall can further reduce the harm caused by "forming cliques".

After this substitution, the Barkley team's offense improved. Jeremy Lin and Hayward didn't shoot much, and Cousins ​​didn't shoot much. Griffin and Owen split the ball.

It's just that they still can't prevent O'Neal's offense on the defensive end.

Qin Hao's breakthrough is still sharp, Butler is still playing hard, and he and Qin Hao have a perfect understanding, and the cooperation can be said to complement each other, playing a cooperation that the Barkley team does not have.

For a while, Butler acted like a cheater, receiving a pass from Qin Hao and performing a dunk. He succeeded in singles, or hit the basket, causing the defender to foul and make free throws.
In just a moment, Butler scored another 6 points, and his personal score has reached 12 points.You must know that this is only the first quarter, the two teams, he is the first person to score in double figures.
