289 Dragons and Tigers

Iguodala's retaliatory counterattack did not achieve the result he wanted. On the contrary, he also lost a foul. The referee's whistle sounded, and Zhang Chen got a 3+1 chance.

Now the score difference is 9 points, because Zhang Chen's three-point shot hit, the score gap has been pulled back three points. Standing on the free throw line, Zhang Chen's heart was as heavy as water. He slowly raised the basketball, and then kicked his feet on the ground. With such a little strength, the basketball also drew into the basket after an arc.

The score gap has become 8 points, and Zhang Chen has no record of missed free throws since the start of this season.

This four-pointer is like a help for the Knicks, but Iguodala is unlucky. He has received a serious warning from the head coach's eyes. He did deal with this ball a little painfully. He just gave Zhang Chen a point for nothing because he was eager to revenge.

There are only one minute and thirty seconds left until the end of the first half. Whether the 76ers want to redraw the gap to ten, or the Knicks want to take the opportunity to retrieve the gap, they have to hurry up. Now the players on both sides have a tacit understanding and begin to try to be as steady and fast as possible, hoping that they can't be robbed of the momentum by the opponent.

In the attack of the 76ers, Iguodala was slapped by Zhang Chen. Now his hands are faintly painful. He knows that his feel is expected to be terrible, so he didn't want to compete with Zhang Chen. The basketball finally came to the inside line of the 76ers. They forced Randolph's point, the basket The ball finally entered the net, and the score difference finally made the 76ers return to double digits as they wished.

The game continues to start. Now is the time when the Knicks must not make mistakes, and the person who controls the ball has become Zhang Chen. It is undoubtedly quite easy for Zhang Chen to control the ball in the first half. After all, everyone knows that it is just a whimsical thing to steal Zhang Chen, so no one is looking for fun.

Zhang Chen's possession of the ball came outside the opponent's three-point line. What made him frown was that the teammates not only did not find their position in the first time in actual combat, but also fell into the rhythm of the opponent again. This is not good news. Zhang Chen thinks it's better to do it by himself. So far, he has scored 19 points, 2 assists and 3 rebounds in this game. Maybe this score can rise a little.

The basketball was like glue in Zhang Chen's control, and Zhang Chen did not relax. After a horizontal pull ** changed direction, Zhang Chen forcibly broke into the left side of Iguodala again. Iguodala immediately called his friends to restrain Zhang Chen's speed. At this time, the opponent's guy in the front position immediately ran up to block Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen couldn't do anything, so he had to put away the basketball and jump out of his encirclement.

When Zhang Chen learned to run, his feet were also extremely flexible. Every time he used it, he could be dazzling. Under such refinement, Zhang Chen's feet were also extremely flexible. Reflected on his breakthrough is his jump. The breakthrough step can be fast or slow, it can run into three slow steps, or it can directly forcibly start the incarnation of lightning to make the opponent helpless. In short, in the ever-changing pace, the opponent always has only an elusive sense of powerlessness.

Zhang Chen's ball is still his kind of jumping stunt. He jumped away from his opponent's small front, and then the inside line of the 76ers has blocked in front of Zhang Chen. This time, they completely locked Zhang Chen's forward route. At least Zhang Chen wants to continue to go inside and can only be separated. The two of them were deducted.

Zhang Chen naturally doesn't have that ability. It's okay to have a slam dunk through two people. Even if he can succeed, he will probably be disgraced. Zhang Chen won't do that kind of thing. At the last moment when he was about to hit two people, his body soared into the air, and his left leg suddenly lifted it high. He raised his chest, and his knees could even be close to his chest.

At this time, Zhang Chen also made a flat in the sky because of this action, and then began to take action. There are still many benefits of riding and archery, including the stable surname in the air when you jump up, and the ability to avoid the opponent's block. A completely different sense of rhythm increases the gap between the defender and the attacker. Another is that the outstretched leg is enough to make the distance between the opponent and the attacker more. Big.

"Wh!" In this good situation, Zhang Chen's goal was unambiguous, and the light had disappeared in the fluttering net.

Zhang Chen's score rose to 21 points, and the score gap between the two teams returned to 8 points. At this time, there were still 45 seconds left, and the last fiercest battle in the first half also began. First of all, the 76ers' Iguodara's hand feeling recovered and hit a three-pointer on the outside line. He has done this countless times in this game. The basketball flies into the basket, and finally there is a small net, and the score difference has changed to 11 points, and there are still 24 seconds left, which is just the time for an attack. Zhang Chen still controlled the ball directly, but when he came to the front court, he immediately passed the basketball to Du Hong. Du Hong let the basketball gradually waste time in his hand. It was not until 15 seconds had been delayed that he began to think about the attack. They did not want to leave the 76ers a chance to attack.

Again and again, the basketball fluttered around his ** and waist, which was slightly worse than Zhang Chen's ball possession. However, as a point guard, his ball control technology and ball control quality were quite good. The opponent tried to steal several times and was dodged by him, and at this time, the fat Randolph suddenly pulled Out of the outside line, he asked Du Hong for the ball.

Seeing that there were only the last 6 seconds left, Du Hong did not hesitate to pass the basketball directly to Randorff.

Randorff seems to have seen Zhang Chen hit so many balls and felt that it was necessary to show his hand, so he jumped up his fat body directly outside the three-point line, but this guy had such aura in the sky, and the basketball also left his right hand with the push of force towards the basket. The basket flew away.

If Zhang Chen's shooting is light and flexible, then Randorf's shooting has such a thunderous momentum, and the basketball is inserted into the three-point line like a cannonball. Zhang Chen was a little worried that this guy would mess up their last attack, so he hurriedly went inside to grab the rebound, but to his surprise, the ball simply flew into the basket.

Although the trajectory of the ball is a little flat, as if it happened to hit it, the ground was quite straightforward, and the friction between the basketball and the nets was also extremely fierce.

"Good ball!" Randov beat his chest and said loudly, which made Zhang Chen immediately lose his mind to praise him.

Randorph was preparing to be intoxicated, but when he turned around, everyone had already run away. Zhang Chen and others wanted to defend the opponent's last attack.

The 76ers' attack required a very fast speed. After all, there were only 3 seconds left, so after a few long passes between them, the basketball flew into the hands of Iguodala near the midfield. Seeing that the attack time was getting less and less, Iguodala immediately jumped up and threw the basketball, and the basketball finally returned He deviated from the basket and was rejected by the basket. Iguodala waved his arm with some regret, but there was nothing he could do without scoring.

In this way, at the end of the first half, the score difference between the two sides was 8 points, and the Knicks were 8 points behind.

Returning to the locker room, Zhang Chen still sat motionless on the stool in front of the wardrobe, and his sweat still couldn't hide it. In the second quarter, he only played for five minutes. His physical strength was not consumed too much, but he was a little sweaty. In this case, sweat could not be covered up. Live, go down.

Zhang Chen's data in the first half is 21 points, 2 assists and 3 rebounds. It seems that Zhang Chen may still get a relatively high score today. Now he is seizing the time to recover his strength and preparing for the second half of the game.

There is still an indescribable feeling in his heart. Now he really understands the difficulty of a team winning. In the past, when he was in the Suns, if the Suns could defeat their opponents, they would always go smoothly. If they could defeat their opponents, they would often have to surrender, but now it's different. Zhang Chen always feels that he has worked hard and got a lot of points, but he can't help the team win the final victory.

What the hell is going on? Why does the opponent always have the ability to die? The Eagles were like that the other day, and the 76ers are still like that now? This matter has become a big stone hovering in Zhang Chen's heart. He doesn't want the team to fail. He really doesn't want to, but now it seems that they have to pay a heavy price if they don't recover one point. If it goes on like this, they will definitely be more or less lucky this season.

Zhang Chen quietly found D'Anthony, and then came straight to the point and said, "Capture, I think there is a problem with our team. We can't find a way to restrain our opponents... When launching a counterattack, we often can only rely on personal ability, although this can be encouraged when encountering some teams that are not too strong. Strong support, but when we meet a strong team, it can be imagined that one or two people can't support the whole team.

D'Anthony looked at him and said, "You're right, that's it. We can't deal with strong teams at all... In fact, we have discussed this issue during the last game. Unfortunately, what we have to do now is to choose the order gradually. Don't think about making our team deserved for a while. The strong team, this needs a process, is it clear? A process."

Zhang Chen nodded. In fact, he was just looking for D'Antoni to spit out. The team's current situation made Zhang Chen very entangled.

David at this time? Li Duan put a drink on Zhang Chen's hand and said, "Chen, this is what I just called for you... Drink it quickly. It should be good for your physical consumption."

"Thank you." Zhang Chen picked up and took a sip, and then said vaguely, "David, how are you feeling today? What do you think of playing in this way?

"It's amazing! The pace you told me is quite useful. Today, I have gained some offensive and defensive advantages... I need more energy for their defense, so that I can also attract more defensive attention from my opponents, can't I?

Zhang Chen nodded and said, "In fact, I give you more knowledge about pace and a training method. After all, my pace is aimed at outside players like me. What you need more is to find a trainer who is proficient in inside footsteps."

"I know." David Li nodded and sat next to Zhang Chen. Speaking of which, David Li really slowly became Zhang Chen's direct descendant. The first passing choice to grab the rebound must be Zhang Chen.

As for Randorff, in fact, Randorff is also a little silent now, because he found that he is now in the Knicks, and everyone no longer regards him as the core, which makes him feel quite depressed but powerful, so he has to mutter and complain in his mouth. Usually, I heard him complain about at least one Eddie Curry, but now the big breast said that his feet hurt, and he couldn't participate in the game, and he ran away in the eyes of D'Antoni's hatred.

The second half of the game continued to start. Although the Knicks dug a big hole for themselves in the second quarter, their backward situation became much smaller with Zhang Chen's efforts, which made them look forward to the team or Zhang Chen. Everyone was staring at the situation in the court.

The first ball was the ball right of the 76ers. They quickly controlled the ball through the half and then staggered the inner and outer lines. The basketball finally hung in the hands of the insider players. He began to draw an arc around his left leg. Later, he finally found a direction and began to lay up. The basketball deviated a little deviation next to the basket, and the rebound was The Knicks snatched it.

The person who grabbed the rebound was David Lee. David Lee immediately passed the basketball to Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen did not stop when he received the ball and ran directly to the half.

It's just that the 76ers are still good at dealing with the fast attack that the opponent may launch. They immediately began to retreat, so that the Knicks' fast attack was dumb in the gun before it was fully fired. Zhang Chen passed the ball to Wilson after half-time? Chandler, and then he missed the shot, and the rebound returned to the 76ers.

The 76ers are not so polite, and the Knicks can't defend their fast attack. In the Knicks' helplessness and eyes against the opponent's fast attack, the 76ers finally ended the attack with a light basket, and the score gap returned to double digits.

The Knicks attacked again. This time, Zhang Chen still controlled the ball. After examining the offensive situation of his teammates outside the three-point line, Zhang Chen decided to shoot by himself, so the basketball left his hands and ran towards the basket. Unfortunately, there were some deviations in the trajectory, and finally bounced high on the basket. He was caught by the inside jump of the 76ers.

Zhang Chen quickly raised his hand to signal that the ball was his own fault, but he soon found that he did not have time to do that, because the 76ers had formed another fast offensive formation. The two of them quickly cooperated, and saw that a fast attack was going to be successful!

The Knicks' defensive lineup is not neat enough and the disadvantage is once again reflected. They run back to the half to defend the opponent's fast attack. The 76ers' eyes are quite vicious, and they can often find opportunities to move forward in the Knicks' messy defensive cooperation. Therefore, they threaded the needle and thread all the way, and found a living space in the cracks of the Knicks.

Zhang Chen's nine-level speed gave him the capital to come first. He knew that if the opponent's quick attack was successful again at this time, it would be too much for the morale of the Knicks, so he stepped into the three-point line in a few steps and jumped high against the opponent's small striker who was ready to dunk.

Two people collided in the sky. The 76ers' power forward may suffer if they fight hard with Zhang Chen, not to mention their small forwards?

Zhang Chen knew that his bounce did not allow him to cover the ball, so the purpose of his shot was the other party's arm from beginning to end. He slapped the guy down from the air by hitting Iguodala, and then fell down.

"SHIT!" The guy was beaten down by Zhang Chen and rushed up to argue with Zhang Chen as soon as possible, but Zhang Chen was not interested. The referee soon came over and gave Zhang Chen a defensive foul. Zhang Chen made the third foul in this game, but finally did not let the opponent succeed in the quick attack.

The 76ers made two free throws, and the score difference became 12 points. At this time, there was a little problem with the Knicks' attack. When Du Hong passed the ball, he was robbed by his opponent, and the basketball was robbed by the 76ers. They quickly began to run and prepared to launch a counterattack. Fortunately, Zhang Chen was stuck on the main route and entangled with the opponent's ball-holding player for a while, dragging the time by a second and bankrupting their fast attack.

So the ball turned into a position battle. The 76ers were mobilizing troops to arrange their troops. After several basketball rotations, the ball finally came to the inside line of the 76ers. Then the tall guy came directly to a layup. The Knicks were unable to stop it and could only obediently watch the basketball obediently fall into the net. .

Although Zhang Chen's efforts and the rapid return of his teammates prevented another fast attack, Zhang Chen was still annoyed and sad - it was too difficult for the Knicks to play. Now even if he and Randorf were on the court, the opponent still rode on the Knicks's head to shit. The score that was finally recovered was pulled away by the opponent, and now the score gap has reached 14 points.

After a bitter smile for a while, Zhang Chen took the pass from the bottom line and slowly controlled the ball through the half. This time, he sought stability and did not launch an attack immediately, but let the basketball rotate in the middle of the crowd for a while, and finally came to the inside line. After several tossing and turns, the basketball gained the emptiness and motivation of the heart, David? Li was fearless at such a critical moment and finally got two points.

Although the score gap has not returned to single digits, the Knicks have finally got rid of the scoring shortage. Unfortunately, they can't get up so quickly, and the rest will definitely be a harder game.

Zhang Chen is incumbent on the rise and fall of the team. When the team faces this situation, it can be imagined that he can only stand up in the end.
