The Point Guard is Here

The joy at halftime did not dilute the bloody second half.

The collision of the NBA Finals made Fan Xi tremble with fear, especially when the three tough men Charles Oakley, Charles Smith, and Anthony Mason Jr. rushed towards the Rockets penalty area, the feeling of punching to the flesh was simply unsuffocating. .

Fan Xi had great worries about his physical fitness again.

You must know that Starks and Derek Harper are the kind of tough guys to the bone, and the overall atmosphere of the Knicks is extremely tough... maybe maybe... the gorilla is a little softer.

Jack, don't you think the Knicks need you very much?

When the game was in the middle of the fourth quarter, Stephen Marbury suddenly turned his head and said to Fan Xie: They are very brave, and they play neatly. But... they lack agility. Their tactics are a bit rigid. The Rockets played against Olajuwon and Under the leadership of Kenny Smith, it is more flexible.

Fan Xi didn't speak.

But Marbury could see it, and Fan Xi could naturally see it.

The Knicks are more than strong, but not agile.

In contrast, the Rockets lineup composed of Olajuwon, Thorpe, Kenny Smith, Horry, Maxwell, and the sixth man Sam Cassell is more relaxed and more resilient tactically.

You also know tactics?

Spike Lee asked Stephon Marbury very seriously.

A small question, not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

Marbury opened his mouth in a daze for 30 seconds. If Spike Lee hadn't just promised to donate 10,000 US dollars to his block, he would have let Spike Lee see the purest Coney Island swear words!

Jack. What do you think the Knicks will win tonight?

When the Rockets took the lead with a three-pointer from Robert Horry with 3 minutes left in the game, Spike Lee couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Fan Xie smiled and said, I think the Knicks will win.

Looking back, Charles Smith hits the mid-range and the game continues in a dog-to-tooth pattern.

The pace of the game has also become slower.

With 1 minute and 16 seconds left in the game,

Rockets coach Tomjanovich requested a timeout. At this time, the Rockets still led by 2 points and held the ball. Obviously, the Rockets want to consolidate the situation.

When Starks passed by Vanhee, Vanhee stood up suddenly. He pulled Starks aside and said to him: You have a good touch in the left corner tonight. Next, You should try it from there. You and Anthony Mason Jr. cross screen in the key, Robert Horry doesn't like to go to the left corner. That's your chance! As long as you hit the fifth three, you win deal.

Vanhee told the Starks.

Starks frowned.

Fan Xi's words were very to his liking.

However, at the critical moment, basketball must be handed over to the boss Patrick Ewing for singles.

He frowned.

Fan Xi whispered a few more words in his ear.

His brows slowly flared.

Then he walked to the bench.

When Starks left, Spike Lee asked Fanhee: What did you and John say?

Fan Xi smiled and replied: Nothing, just urging him to hit the fifth three-pointer quickly.

Spike Lee frowned at Lao Gao. He was a little worried that Starks would get hotheaded at the critical moment and grab Ewing's ball, causing chaos within the team and losing the most critical Tianwangshan battle.

What's interesting is that Pat Riley saw the scene where Fanhee was chatting with Starks, but after Starks returned, he deliberately didn't ask.

Moreover, after arranging the offensive tactics for Patrick Ewing, he specifically pointed out that he can move randomly, and if there is an opportunity in the periphery, he can shoot first.

Because...he wanted to see what kind of idea Fan Xi had given Starks.

This is an investigation of Fan Xi.

Examine whether he can be integrated into the Knicks lineup.

beep!

The whistle sounded and the game continued.

Kenny Smith reached the frontcourt with the ball steadily, and Derek Harper was very tough to defend him.

Starks followed closely beside Maxwell, never leaving.

And at the moment when Thorpe mentioned the high position and gave Kenny Smith a pick-and-roll, Starks suddenly rushed out. As if he had expected Kenny Smith's action, he threw himself directly in front of Smith, and then abruptly walked away from Smith. Snatching the basketball from your hand... It's like a bad student snatching a good student's lollipop.

Kenny Smith lost the ball under this sudden and brutal aggression.

The referee turned a blind eye.

This is the 1990s, and this is the battle of Tianwangshan in the finals.

Don't expect the referee to blow the whistle.

Starks took the basketball, and seeing the Rockets retreat quickly, he stabilized the rhythm and passed it to Derek Harper.

Harper also controlled the game very smoothly.

The fans at the scene have long been excited to cheer for the home players.

Starks' perfect defense this time was even called God's Break by the live commentator with an excited voice!

Pat Riley is also a little strange, this aggressive defense was not arranged by him.

While he knows the Starks have this ability, he discourages taking risks at critical moments. What if Kenny Smith passed the ball directly to Maxwell just now?

Could it be Jack Fan?

Pat Riley looked at Fanhee.

Fan Xi looked at the court calmly.

It was indeed his idea, he told Starks. As long as Maxwell is brought to the weak side, and Kenny Smith subconsciously breaks through the pick-and-roll to the right, he should attack decisively and use Thorpe to block the line of sight to complete a sneak attack steal.

Starks didn't sneak attack, he directly robbed!

This is probably the style of the Knicks.

Derek Harper controlled the ball at the top of the key.

Kenny Smith dared not be careless.

Just then, Harper called Ewing up for cover.

Through Ewing's cover, Harper quickly broke into the paint.

Just when Olajuwon was about to help defend and block his way, he would pass the ball to Ewing according to the plan and let him complete the mid-range shot.

Starks ends the cross screen with Anthony Mason below, and relies on Anthony Mason's door-like body to block the defender and run to the bottom corner of the three-point line.

Horry has yet to follow up.

Harper quickly passed the ball.

Starks received the basketball, and then made a steady shot... Although Horry pounced up from behind, it was too late, and his swoop seemed to add a sight to Starks.

swish!

Accurate three-point hit.

Madison Garden is completely boiling.

The name of Starks was filled with the excited voice of the on-site commentator, and the sound of the fans on the scene seemed to be a tsunami.

Starks completely sealed the gods through this attack and defense.

The Knicks dominated with 39 seconds left in the game.

The Rockets' tactics didn't work.

Tomjanovich frowned in astonishment.

His originally planned tactic was to deal with Patrick Ewing, but unexpectedly, Starks took advantage of the loophole in the bottom corner.

When did Pat Riley get so aggressive?

Dare not to let Ewing take a shot at the critical moment?

The gorilla is the leader of the Knicks!

After Starks beat his chest excitedly and roared, he pointed his finger at Fan Xi, and even ran to the sidelines to give Fan Xi a high-five.

This action reminds people of the sideline conversation between Vanhee and Starks when the Rockets called a timeout.

So, it was the high school guard's idea?

Tomjanovich briefly pondered. Vanhee's information sheet was placed on his desk as early as last year...before Vanhee became famous on the New York reality show. At that time, the team trainer strongly recommended it to him. Then, the yellow-skinned defender kept appearing in his field of vision.

He originally planned to try out Fan Xie after the finals. After all, Kenny Smith is old. Although Sam Cassell is young, it is normal for a team to hoard three point guards.

However, recently it was reported that his agent was arrogant and refused to accept any trial training.

At that time, Tomjanovich backed down. As a famous NBA coach, it is impossible for him to get used to the stink of a rookie.

Now...the meeting again turned out to be such a scene.

Does the Knicks want this Asian teenager in the bag?

Tomjanovich's sense of crisis flashed by.

He quickly adjusted his concentration and yelled to hand the ball to Olajuwon.

Olajuwon received a pass from Kenny Smith and played a dream dance. He opened Ewing, but was interfered by Anthony Mason like a boxer when laying up.

boom!

Basketball strikes iron.

It's Starks again, and Starks slips into the paint for a rebound.

Then he sprints forward quickly, killing time.

The Rockets guard chased all the way to the frontcourt and took a long circle before sending him to the free throw line.

Swish! Swish!

Made two free throws.

Starks refreshed his personal score to 31 points.

Then, the Rockets attacked and Robert Horry missed a three-pointer.

Ewing struggled to get the basketball out of the three-point line.

Starks catches the ball and Kenny Smith runs up and fouls it.

However, time has run out!

91:87.

The New York Knicks won the crucial Tianwangshan and led with a total score of 3:2.

The pressure is all on the Rockets.

Next, the Knicks only need to win one game in Houston to lift the 93-94 championship trophy.

Starks, who scored one defense, one shot and one rebound at the critical moment, became the hero of New York.

He was even lifted up by a few strong men.

Oakley and Mason tap dance, which is hilarious.

Everyone's face is full of excitement.

Starks performed so well at the last moment, does it have something to do with you? Spike Lee thought of asking Fanhee after screaming excitedly that his voice was hoarse.

Fan Xi had already got up and was about to leave. He told Spike Lee: No. This is all his own ability.

Then, he and Marbury still exited the player channel.

When walking into the player tunnel, Rockets coach Tomjanovich saw Van Hee and greeted him. Moreover, they called him over and chatted for a few words, and they talked about Fan Xi's training as a rocket trainer in Virginia.

At this time, Pat Riley just passed by.

Seeing Fan Xi and Tomjanovich having a heated chat, he immediately became more vigilant.

Although his expression was still calm and composed, his heart was extremely flustered.

The fortune teller is a little worried about gains and losses.

He looks very much like the sophomore boy who found out that his crush was chatting with the captain of the basketball school team in high school.
