The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 94: The Hard Bone

Zhang Xiaotian has always been paying attention to Harden. At the end of the game, he usually pays attention to the opponent's Hexi player, so as soon as Harden broke through, he quickly defended and blocked Harden's shooting line.

I just didn't expect that the opponent didn't shoot and threw the ball out.

After all, Duncan was a bit slow with his back to the basket. Asik jumped up and took the ball a little, and the basketball bounced and fell into the basket.

With only 5 seconds left in the game, the Rockets took the lead again at 96:95.

The Rockets players were also more excited when the ball scored, and a bunch of people on the bench roared.

The Spurs requested a timeout because there was a 1-point difference, and the tactics of the last shot were more diverse.

It can be said that the five players on the Spurs field have lore ability, and the Rockets dare not take it lightly.

I have to say that the Rockets did a good job of one-on-one marking at this time.

None of the three Spurs players with long-range shooting ability had a good chance to catch the ball, and Leonard could only throw the ball to Duncan.

Today is different from the past. After Duncan catches the ball, no one goes up to help defend.

The old stone Buddha made a decisive decision, took a step inside and shot.

At this time, we can see the gap between the habits of the players. Duncan made a shot, and everyone in the Rockets except the defenders looked at the basket in a daze.

On the Spurs side, Zhang Xiaotian, Ginobili and Leonard all rushed to the basket.

Duncan's mid-range shot was disturbed and missed, but the ball that popped out was hit by Ginobili.

Zhang Xiaotian rushed a little too far. At this time, he showed his quick reaction speed. With a twist of his body in mid-air, he grabbed the ball that Ginobili had picked up, and threw it to the basket when he felt that it was about to hit the ground.

In fact, he didn't know whether he could enter or not, this time it was all based on feeling.

The calculator on the rim had already lit a red light, and the basketball fell into the rim almost at the same time.

The lore, Ginobili jumped on Zhang Xiaotian's back excitedly, and the old man chatted like a teenager.

97:96, the Spurs swept the Rockets in the regular season.

Back in San Antonio, Eddie invited him to dinner, and said triumphantly: "I said hello to Tim Hardaway Jr. and Seth Curry. They are a basketball family. If they can sign, my connections in the league... Hahaha!"

Zhang Xiaotian raised his glass and touched Eddie, and said with a smile: "You really have great ambitions."

He didn't want to hit this guy. Other people's network in the alliance is much better than Eddie's new company. If there is no advantage, why would they choose him.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaotian still suggested: "It's better to pay attention to those who have the potential to play, and the ones that are not so famous now."

The performance in March Madness is an important basis. Eddie was running during this period, and some video materials he compiled were also sent to Zhang Xiaotian.

When staying at home, Zhang Xiaotian will still help analyze it.

If Eddie can succeed, he will also be happy. As for his own contract, as long as the cooperation is happy, there will be no problem, but a few of the clauses need to be revised.

This is a very normal choice. Compared to the undrafted pick, he can be regarded as a player, and some of the benefits will definitely be handled by himself. He is not the kind of man with strong limbs and a simple mind in the joke.

Just chatting about basketball, Yang Feiyu was bored, so she took Kara to go shopping, and probably discussed the graduation thesis by the way, Kara is a real academic master, although she is helping to manage the company now, she will not help Yang Feiyu any more. There will be problems.

Eddie has one set of theories, and Zhang Xiaotian feels that he is a little unreliable. It would be good to judge if he can fight against those newcomers.

On March 3 at the Spurs' home court, they will meet the challenge of the Nuggets.

To be honest, the Nuggets are one of the toughest opponents in the West this season.

Not only are their main players difficult to deal with, but they also have strong players such as Wilson Chandler, Andre Miller, Corey Brewer, and JaVale McGee on the bench. They have almost no weaknesses, maybe they lack An All-Star-level player towns the field.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams exploded inside each other, and to be precise, they were in the position of power forward.

Kenneth Faried has a strong body, and Duncan can't keep up with his footsteps, but he is tall and long, so there is nothing he can do to play Faried inside.

However, the second-year rookie is also arrogant in front of Duncan, which makes people sigh.

The main lineups of the two sides played inextricably on the court, but when it came to the rotation period, the Spurs couldn't stand it anymore. This is what the Spurs often do, but the Nuggets are one of the few teams with a lot of players.

Zhang Xiaotian can barely withstand the impact of Brewer, but Ginobili can no longer stop Wilson Chandler, and McGee, a center with an annual salary of tens of millions, is used to bully As a substitute, George Karl is also courageous.

Fortunately, this guy Danny Green exploded, and he came up with a small three-pointer and hit a lot of shots. The Nuggets were also very surprised.

In fact, this guy is also unstable, he is scary when he is accurate, and scares his own people when he is not accurate, but he does not need the ball at all, and it is easier to use than Zhang Xiaotian.

So even though the Spurs trailed by 10 points during the rotation, they were still only 3 points behind at halftime.

The two sides have adjusted their defensive strategies based on their respective performances in the first half.

Faried lost the space to attack, and Danny Green was locked up by Iguodala, even losing the chance to make a shot.

However, the Spurs' loss of Danny Green had no effect at all. In the first half, Parker, who was making a wedding dress for someone, began to show off, and seemingly ordinary mid-range shots pierced the Nuggets' defense again and again, and the score was overtaken in an instant.

The main lineup couldn't play, and the Nuggets decided to rely on the bench, but the Spurs were prepared, and Popovich naturally let Danny Green stay on the court to deal with Wilson Chandler.

If you spend more on the opponent, Ginobili will not be at a disadvantage again. After all, you have a lot of experience and demon swords. When you get older, you may be afraid that your opponent will be unreasonable when he has plenty of physical strength.

After the opponent replaced Miller, the effect of defending Parker was still good, and his footsteps could not keep up with experience to make up for it. After passing, Faried was allowed to defend, and Parker was no longer as relaxed as before.

After Zhang Xiaotian came up, he beat Breuer forcefully. The opponent was taller than him but weighed a lot less. He was very good at hitting the opponent's weak point. Brewer's strength couldn't keep up, so he specialized in resisting the squeeze.

With his improvement, apart from the center position, he didn't suffer much during this rotation.

However, the Nuggets also blurred the main substitutes, and several substitutes played longer than the main players.

At the moment of the decisive battle, they had three substitute players on the field. Wilson Chandler went to the third position, Gallinari played the fourth position, and McGee played the center.

The Spurs immediately put on a targeted lineup, and it was a showdown.
