NBA Backer King Chapter 141

   Chapter 141 The first 20+10 of the playoffs

   "Westphal seems to be a little nervous, nervousness can make people ignore a lot of things, which is a weakness of the Suns after entering the playoffs."

   Dott reminded.

"In the playoffs, the main force has to play more time, reduce the rotation, and maintain a higher quality offense and defense. Paul Westphal has made several of his main players sit on the bench for too much time." Latham laughed. road.

   "Yes, the playoffs are the game of the main force." Dort laughed.

   "Haha..." The two laughed.

  The five main players came on the court and immediately controlled the situation. Barkley hit a goal and made up for the blood first.

Looking back, when Divac was about to catch the ball, Wang Tiejun suddenly came from behind with a close-fitting Tieshan hit, causing Divac to miss the ball and take the opportunity to complete a steal. The Suns played a fast break, and he again A deadly long pass came in, assisting Dan Marley.

  36 level, the Lakers attack.

   It was still Barkley, but this time he missed a shot. The Lakers controlled the backcourt rebounds well and entered the frontcourt, and shooting guard Scott missed a jumper.

   The Lakers' two big insiders still implemented the strategy of fighting for offensive rebounds, but Wang Tiejun stuck Divac well, allowing Barkley to get the backcourt rebounds, and the Suns attacked.

He walked to the basket first, Divac circled forward and pushed out, but the latter turned around, fit directly into his arms, adopted a winding defense, and had no chance to catch the ball. , can only go to the left wing low.

  Kevin Johnson passed the ball ahead of time. As soon as he reached the low post on the left wing, the ball was in his hand. Divac immediately topped the defense, and at the same time, AC Green on the top also threw down. With only one step left, the double team would be in place.

At the moment of    receiving the ball, his right hand catching the ball suddenly threw it outwards, and took a step inside the three-point line on the right wing. Ceballos, who was emptied by Green, thought he was passing the ball, and his hands could not help but catch it.

   "Point the ball?"

   AC Green, who threw himself down, froze in his heart, and he couldn't help but stop at his feet.

   But the next moment, Pharaoh turned his head quickly, swung his arms, turned around and changed legs, and began to slip.

Divac, who was behind him, was also fooled by the passing action. When he reacted, he had already turned around, grabbed the ball with his left hand, stepped into the paint area with one step, and faced the defending basketball player. Campbell flew up.

The beauty of   bear stance is that his body is always in a state of sinking center of gravity, which makes his take-off without any adjustment and preparations for bending his knees.

"Oops!"

   As soon as Campbell got to the basket, before he had time to jump, he saw Wang Tiejun on the opposite side fly up.

"boom!"

   The next moment the basket rang out, Campbell groaned and was knocked over to the basket while being dunked.

   "Di!"

   The referee's whistle blew.

"yeah!"

  The audience cheered.

   "Oh oh oh, the restricted area sweeper has finally started his performance..." The roar of the on-site commentator sounded immediately.

   "Old K, well done!"

  Buckley ran over excitedly and gave Pharaoh a high five.

   "Brother, from now on, you only need to watch my performance." Old Wang shouted.

   "Fuck you!" Buckley scoffed.

  Standing at the free throw line, Wang Tiejun calmed down and dribbled the ball seven or eight times before aiming for the basket and finally making a steady shot.

"boom!"

   missed the extra penalty, Divac grabbed the rebound.

   Lakers offense.

  Campbell got the ball low on the right wing and backed Barkley.

  He played Barkley, and he had the dislocation advantage of height, but also the disadvantage of tonnage.

   As soon as he received the ball, he was overpowered by Barkley and forced a turnaround jumper that missed.

  Wang Tiejun protected the backcourt rebounds, looked at the teammates who were going down quickly, and had no chance. He gave it to Barkley first, and Barkley dribbled the ball to the center line and gave it to Kevin Johnson.

  Kevin Johnson came to the top of the arc. At this time, he ran over from behind, stood beside the former, and took the initiative to do a pick-and-roll. The former borrowed the wall to cross the free throw line and hit the basket.

As soon as Divac arrived at the basket, he immediately took a step up to make up for defense. At this time, Kevin Johnson turned and leaned into the arms of the former. While making a pick-and-roll, the ball in his hand was passed to Wang Tiejun. .

"boom!"

  Wang Tiejun stepped on Divac's side after catching the ball. As his body rose, he faced the basket with a brutal and violent dunk, and the basket was smashed.

"yeah!"

  The home fans cheered.

   "Beautiful pick and roll, Old K and Lightning played well together." Dortmund praised at the TNT live broadcast booth.

   "Consecutive pick-and-rolls, the Suns played the Jazz style." Latham laughed.

   Lakers offense.

  Divac wanted the ball from a low position on the left wing, but Wang Tiejun couldn't stand behind him, so he could only take a step out to get the ball.

  Wang Tiejun pushed up again, preventing Divac from turning around and facing the basket, and continued to push outwards.

  The NBA's No. 1 actor's offensive skills are comprehensive, but he lacks stability, especially the ability to attack. In short, he can do everything, but the success rate is average. Don't take me as the main attacker, then I can't.

   He also has the ability to shoot in the middle. If you let him shoot a three-pointer, it may be thrown in, but as long as there is defense, the shooting rate will not be very high.

  The main offensive area is the basket and two points from close range. 70% of the offense is in the paint area. Once you leave, the offensive ability will be nothing.

   Now that he was pushed out of the paint by Wang Tiejun, there was no way he could make a shot. The AC Green above did not get rid of Ceballos.

   "Old K has done a good job defending this time, making good use of his strength and tonnage, and his single defense ability is still ok."

   Dott laughed.

   "Divac's speed is a bit faster than Old K, but only limited. If his offensive ability is not that good, Old K's single-defense effect is alright." Latham nodded.

  Two minutes later, Wang Tiejun attacked at the basket, was directly brought down by Divac and Campbell, and got two free throws.

   Not long after, the second quarter was over, and at 45:51, the Suns overtook the score and led by 6 points.

   In the second quarter, Wang Tiejun strengthened his basket attack, and the Lakers took double-team and foul tactics against him. Within 8 minutes, he made 2 of 3 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and brought 6 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block.

   In 17 minutes in the first half, he made 4 of 6 shots, 3 of 6 free throws, and scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks and 1 foul.

   Back in the locker room, Wang Tiejun counted his two arms, his neck, and his face. There were at least ten scratches on his face, and most of them were bloody.

  Buckley looked at it and said, "It's normal, then you have to be careful that he digs your crotch."

  Wang Tiejun, who was about to eat a banana to replenish his physical strength, subconsciously clamped his legs and scolded: "Damn, Divac is like a mad dog, do I need a rabies shot?"

   His strength and tonnage advantage is obvious, but the intensity of the playoffs is different, the whistle is less than in the regular season, Divac's movements are bigger, and there are a lot of small moves.

   "Old K, I'm ready."

  The team doctor Andrew John came over with a syringe, but it was not a rabies vaccine. He was going to give Old K a shot of tetanus.

  Really? The old king stayed for a while.

   "Haha..." The dressing room burst into laughter.

   At this time, in the visiting team's locker room, Randy Fender is arranging tactics for the second half.

"In the first half, the Suns' low-post attack was very balanced. Barkley and Old K scored 11 and 12 points respectively, accounting for 45% of the team's points. This shows that the Suns' offense is dominated by low-post attacks in the interior. We need to further Strengthen the defense inside."

   Having said this, he said to Divac: "Verti, increase the defense of the old K in the second half, and use all means."

   "I understand." Divac nodded.

  Randy Fender said to small forward AC Green again: "Green, you have to do some dirty work."

   "Leave it to me." AC Green nodded without hesitation.

   As an iron man who has been out for eight seasons and only missed three games, there is no dirty work in his eyes, and he is willing to do those things.

   After halftime, the third quarter began.

   "Bang! Bang!"

  The Lakers attacked. Scott took the ball and broke through the basket from the right flank. Under Wang Tiejun's supplementary defense, he missed a throw and the ball hit the basket twice and rolled out.

  Divac and Wang Tiejun took off at the same time and competed for rebounds.

   Comrade Pharaoh made great movements in the air, his legs and elbows were exaggeratedly apart, and he grabbed the rebound under his teeth and claws.

"what!"

  Divac wasn't easy to mess with either. A shrill scream rang out immediately. After landing, he staggered and fell to the basket, beating his stomach and starting to roll.

   "Di!"

   Too bad, the referee slapped his mouth and the whistle rang.

   "The show begins!"

  TNT live broadcast, Dortmund blurted out.

   At this time, Divac, who tricked the whistle, rolled, and with the help of his teammates, Shi Shiran got up and walked to the sideline with a face of 'pain' to prepare to serve.

   "Shhh!"

  The home fans sent their greetings.

   "Looking at how he was about to die, I thought I really hit him, but I didn't. The distance between me and him was as far as the Pacific Ocean."

  Pharaoh controlled his emotions and explained to the referee.

   The referee glanced at Pharaoh and Divac again, expressionless.

  The Lakers serve from the front court and have 7 seconds to attack.

   The left wing was low, Divac wanted to enter the basket, but was pushed outwards by Pharaoh, pushed it to the right wing, left the paint area two steps faster, and completely lost the offensive opportunity.

  This position, even if it is a strategy + pass and cut, is not very suitable, because it is too far from the paint area, even if Wang Tiejun is smashed, the rest of the Suns can return to the basket in time.

   "Di!"

   At this moment, the whistle rang, and the referee pointed at Divac and made a gesture of covering the foul.

  "..." Divac was dumbfounded for a moment.

   "Oh, Mr. Referee did a great job!"

   The on-site commentator shouted excitedly, and the fans applauded warmly at the West American Arena.

   "Clap..."

   This is a good comrade, and Lao Wang is also excited to applaud the referee.

  Sun attack.

  Wang Tiejun squeezed to the basket from a low position on the left wing. He was very strong, with strength + tonnage, the difference was a bit big, and Divac could not stand up.

   "His!"

   He sucked in a breath of cold air. Damn actor, **** grabbed the flesh around his waist and didn't let go. The sharp fingernails were probably left on purpose, and they should have pierced his skin through the jersey.

   After getting close to the basket, he turned and stuck Divac behind him when the ball came in and was caught by his right hand.

  The double team of the Lakers also arrived. AC Green completely lost Ceballos and threw himself to the basket. Taking advantage of the closeness, he slammed an elbow on Wang Tiejun's upper left arm.

   In other words, Comrade Lao Wang is standing on a bear stance, his knees are slightly bent, his center of gravity is low, and his horse stance is extremely stable, otherwise he may be turned over by an elbow.

At this time, Divac and Green were entwined from left and right, giving him no space to exert force, and at the same time squeezing him desperately with their bodies, one arm of each also clamped his two arms, and the other hand went to Pick up the ball.

   The intensity of its double-team defense far exceeds that of the regular season.

"Hey!"

   He shouted angrily in his throat, his waist and abdomen suddenly twisted with force, he struggled a little bit to get a little space between the two of them, and then he instantly slammed his feet down, the six forces joined together, and leaned to the right.

  AC Green, after all, has too much difference in tonnage and strength, and even if it cannot exert all its strength, it will be knocked away.

   In the next instant, a series of hits.

This time, there is also pace coordination. With the left foot as the support, the right foot moves towards Divac, with the left shoulder and chest as the attack point, and a hit by the iron mountain, Divac was hit and staggered two steps back. Almost sat on the floor.

"boom!"

After    knocked off the double-team, he stood up calmly, and under heavy dunks with both hands, the entire West American Arena burst into flames in an instant.

   "Hoo! Hoo!"

   fell to the ground, gasping for breath, this attack, his physical energy consumption is a little big.

   "Double-teaming under the basket, relying on play? The double-teaming broke! Old K broke the double-teaming team, and he swept the Lakers' penalty area once again, and there was no relying on playing that could carry him..."

   The on-site commentator kept shouting excitedly.

   In the TNT live broadcast booth, Dort praised: "If you don't consider physical fitness, Lao K's ability to rely on hitting is really unique in the world, and he can completely become his big killer in low-post offense."

   Latham nodded and said, "In the state where the two defenders are completely pressed against each other, he can still exert force by hitting. His method of relying on force is too mysterious."

Dort said: "The Magic's O'Neal can also make a full shot at the basket, but it was the regular season, and in the state of being completely close to the defense, I don't know if he can be like the old K. so?"

  No one knows because the Magic didn't make the playoffs.

   But O'Neal was sitting in front of the TV, eating potato chips, and said vaguely: "Of course I can do it, as long as I gain 140 kilograms."

He is very clear that with his explosive power, he can even overwhelm the old K when he has the space to exert his power, but if there is no space to exert his power at all, it will not work, because without his explosive power, his current tonnage is comparable to Power is not enough.

   Next time, Wang Tiejun continued to storm the basket.

   But as long as he gets the ball under the basket, the Lakers will continue to double-team. The defense is so strong that it even goes to the point of directly hugging and throwing, and the small and dirty moves are constant. And his physical fitness is not as abundant as in the first half, so the efficiency is somewhat reduced.

   In the third quarter, Wang Tiejun made 3 of 6 shots and 3 of 6 free throws in a single quarter, and scored 9 points, 4 rebounds, 1 block, 1 assist, 1 turnover and 2 fouls.

   Even if he was double-teamed, he played an efficient rim attack and helped the team lead the Lakers by a large margin.

   However, in this quarter of the game, under the desperate double-teaming of his opponent, his physical energy was almost exhausted, and when he came off the court, his calf muscles kept shaking.

  65:81, the Suns lead by 16 points.

   In the fourth quarter, Barkley took over the main attack and scored 8 points in the half quarter, defeating the Lakers.

  Wang Tiejun still stayed on the court. He missed a hook and stopped shooting because of his lack of physical fitness.

   In the 6th minute of the last quarter, the Suns led by 20 points, and Wang Tiejun and Barkley were substituted at the same time.

   Then the Lakers fought a counterattack, but the other three main players of the Suns were still there, stabilizing the situation, and finally took advantage of the situation to win the G1 battle.

  88:105, the Suns won by 17 points.

  Wang Tiejun's final data is that in 35 minutes of playing time, he made 7 of 13 shots, 53.8% from the field, 6 of 12 penalties, and scored 20 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks, 1 turnover and 3 fouls.

  Although only 13 shots were taken, the number of shots with the ball was more than that, as high as 19 times.

   After a game, the physical energy consumption is not generally large, especially in the third quarter when the main attack is under the basket, the consumption of a single quarter is higher than the physical consumption of the two quarters in the first half.

   and his opponent Divac played 40 minutes and scored 11 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists.

   Barkley scored 25 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks in 38 minutes, 10 of 20 from the field, 5 of 6 free throws, and won the game best.

  Because Wang Tiejun occupied the basket, Barkley's offense was mostly outside, focusing on jumpers, and his lethality was slightly less than usual.

   "Old K, well done."

  The agent Lance Hawksman came down from the audience, very excited and authentic.

   "Tie Jun, okay, the first time I played in the playoffs, I played 20+10, and the efficiency is still high." Zhang Lili also came over.

   He was about to speak when a reporter in his thirties ran over with a very respectful attitude: "Wang Jun, we are reporters from the Tokyo Asahi Shimbun, please accept our interview."

"You are japanese?"

   When he saw that it was a yellow race, he was overjoyed, thinking that he was from China, but when he heard the words, it turned out to be Japanese.

   "Hay."

   "Are there many basketball fans in Japan? Do any fans know me?" Pharaoh asked with interest.

   Whether it is CAA or Mammoth, I heard that they have invested a certain amount of publicity resources in Japan, but he does not know how much.

   "Wang Jun..."

   "Call me old K, Wang Junwangjun, it's a little awkward."

   "Yes, old K."

  The Japanese reporter introduced: "In our Japan, the most popular sports is baseball, but in recent years, the NBA has been promoted in Japan, and basketball has begun to rise.

  The year before year, the comic work "Slam Dunk" was born, and basketball has become one of the most lively sports, generating a lot of basketball fans.

   Recently, some of your game highlights have also appeared on the sports channels of our major TV stations, attracting many fans. "

  Pharaoh laughed. He couldn't believe what this devil said. He didn't believe that a cartoon could bring hot basketball. Otherwise, Mammoth would have gone to Japan long ago.
