In the basketball world, starting from the 99 World Youth Championship

Chapter 117 A tense situation in a single quarter

The Smiling Assassin's mind was understood by no one but himself. A few minutes later, the second half began. In Philadelphia, Larry Brown made adjustments to the starting lineup. Larry Hughes, who hadn't played for one minute in the first half, played. However, the position where he appeared was not the second position he was familiar with, but the third position. The reason why Larry Brown let him play was very simple-to be used as a meat shield to consume Zhang Tian's physical strength.

Both of them are rookies, but Zhang Tian and Larry Hughes have different status in Larry Brown's eyes. For this Chinese striker, Larry Brown is still very coveted. Although the opponent likes to play blindly, but the opponent The defensive talent on his body is visible to the naked eye. If it is in his hands, he will definitely be able to maximize this talent. The most important thing is that if Zhang Tian comes to Philadelphia, his style of play will not overlap with Iverson .

Larry Hughes is full of resentment towards Larry Brown. Tonight's game is really a duel between Larry. After Zhang Tian saw that the defender turned into Larry Hughes, he took the initiative to ask for the ball from the outside.

Larry Hughes's defense is not good. He was selected to the best defensive team in his previous life because the opponent was the steal leader that year.

Larry Hughes, like Iverson, likes this kind of gambling-style steals. Apart from this, there is nothing special about it. Iverson is struggling on the defensive end because of his physical fitness. Larry Hughes Si is purely poor defensive awareness.

This ball Zhang Tian still habitually steps forward with one foot, giving you the illusion that I am going to turn around, because Zhang Tian's recent jumping and turning does have a bit of Wilkins' charm, although it is more It doesn't have the essence of human movies, but it is enough for him now. Jumping and turning is one of the scoring methods Zhang Tian relies on most.

Larry Hughes didn't retreat, he was still close to Zhang Tian, ​​Zhang Tian easily turned around and passed him, and Tyrone Hill defended him inside, but Zhang Tian didn't hit hard, and It was a flick of the wrist, and the ball disappeared from his hand. Philadelphia's [-]th position hurriedly defended, but it was still too late. Jermaine easily scored points in the paint. Ratliff faced Jermaine and Rick Schmitz alone. The technical flow is a bit difficult.

Larry Brown didn't spray the players on the sidelines. He felt that his idea just now was really right. When Zhang Tian didn't play a few games, he was like Pippen's second.But how can I get the opponent from the Pacers? When I was kicked out of the team by the corn field, I said a lot of bad things about Indiana. Even if this season ends, if Zhang Tian is traded, they will not be able to get Zhang Tian One day trade to Philadelphia, unless Philadelphia trades Iverson.

Iverson was still facing Mark Jackson in the second half. Except for Zhang Tian's main defense in the first quarter, he had never been the main defense again. Butterfly pierced through the flowers and broke through on the right side. Zhang Tian appeared in Iverson On the breakthrough route, Iverson made an emergency stop, facing Zhang Tian and made a mid-range shot, swiped, and the ball returned.

Iverson continued his touch in the first half, but this ball, if he just passed it to Ratliff inside, it would be a dunk.

For the Pacers, Zhang Tian did not continue to catch the ball. He also needs a rest. Reggie Miller faced Iverson, got the ball, and after retreating, he also shot. Duang, the Pacers hit the iron on No. 34, and the rebound was pulled Teliff picked it up, and he passed a long pass to Iverson, who scored again.

Philadelphia actually played a wave of four to zero.Zhang Tianxia made an attack and continued to ask for the ball. Mark Jackson handed it over. Larry Hughes was a bit overwhelmed by the last defense, so he didn't go close to him. This gave Zhang Tian the space to shoot, and the opponent naturally wouldn't Missed, taking the ball is a shot, brush, three-pointer, the fourth three-pointer of the game, this three-pointer also stopped Philadelphia's counterattack.

The fans in the First Union Center booed everywhere. Iverson worked so hard to score 4 points in two rounds. The No. 3 rookie just threw [-] points from the outside line. Why does his core look so bitter?

"It's a beautiful shot. Zhang really stood up at the critical moment. Reggie missed the shot just now. I hope it won't affect his next performance. This guy should stop indulging in the Miller moment. Let's see." What Isiah Thomas wants to say is that I didn't get so obsessed with 25 points in a single quarter in the finals. Is it reasonable for you kid to be obsessed with a super god in the playoffs for so long? As Indiana The basketball legend, the Smiling Assassin feels that Reggie Miller should take on more responsibility.Instead of just being a killer.

Zhang Tian's score had reached [-] points, and Larry Brown on the sidelines could no longer remain calm, so he called a timeout.As the ugly existence of Philadelphia and Tyrone Hill, Larry Hughes suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, just ass sat on the bench, Larry Brown's spittle star came over, "Shet, what the hell were you doing just now, my grandma is better than you in defense, George, you go up. Don't give it to that rookie Easy shot opportunities."

George Lynch has not played for a long time. He was very excited when he was picked by Larry Brown this time. Larry Hughes, a rookie, was very depressed. During the time he just played, he never touched the ball. The data in all items are all zero. Look at Zhang Tian on the opposite side, and then look at yourself. They are all head coaches named Larry. Why is the gap so big?

George Lynch is a good role player. He will resolutely execute the orders given by the head coach, whether it is right or wrong. After playing, he has not changed the defensive situation against Zhang Tian. It is right to stick close to him and not give him shooting space. .

Reggie Miller was facing Aaron McGee. At this time, Iverson was in control of the ball. Eric Snow went down, but McGee was there, and the Pacers could not easily shrink the inside. Bobo's old dog's master, he still has something.

Under the entanglement of McGee, Reggie Miller did not score in the remaining four shots in the third quarter. His overall shooting rate in the third quarter was 5 of 1, and he scored 4 points with free throws.

Iverson's side is not very good, because he played almost all three quarters, so he shot 10 of 2 in the third quarter and scored 5 points. The core on both sides is the big brother, don't laugh at the second brother.

But the Pacers still entered the final battle with a 78:75 lead. The Pacers only scored 19 points in the third quarter, while Philadelphia scored 23 points.

However, Zhang Tian's personal score has already reached 23 points. He scored 8 points in a single quarter in the third quarter. Without these [-]-pointers, Indiana would be behind.

"It was a wonderful game. It seems that it is hard to say who will win, but Reggie must adjust his state." Isiah Thomas caught the core of the Pacers today and beat him to death.
