281 difficult situation

The Eagles' lead was scored 3 points by the Knicks at the last moment at the end of the first half. In this situation, the Eagles' situation immediately turned sharply. Zhang Chen took a look at Randorf. After playing in the second quarter, the fat man's performance was quite good.

The first ball after the start of the second half was in Zhang Chen's hands. He controlled the rhythm of the game, carried the basketball to the front court, came to a place outside the three-point line, and immediately passed the basketball to Chris Duhong next to him. Du Hong slowly controlled the ball and then directly began to dribble in. His speed was very fast, no The effect is not very good, and it is stopped by the opponent where the inside line is not available.

At the critical moment, he also saw the vacancy in the direction of Randorff, so his right hand trembled. The basketball, with a sad arc, flew directly to Randorff's hand. Randorf jumped proudly in the air and smashed the basketball into it. Suddenly, the Knicks were only one point behind.

Seeing the score difference of only one point left, the audience began to cheer enthusiastically. This ball immediately hit their momentum. The Eagles saw the precarious lead and were a little anxious. However, although they were in a hurry, there was still no ambiguity in their march, and the basketball later came to Johnson's hands.

Zhang Chen's defensive skills have been improved to a certain extent. Now he can rely on his own strength and flexibility in moving his footsteps to attack the player Zhou Xuan. However, after playing the first quarter and playing the second quarter for a few minutes, Zhang Chen's physical strength was also being consumed rapidly. The consumption of physical strength did not allow him to defend some insignificant balls too seriously.

However, the current ball is the key ball for Zhang Chen and others to overtake the opponent, which is extremely important to the morale of the Knicks. Therefore, Zhang Chen still spared no effort when defending Johnson. Following Johnson's body, he skillfully changed his footsteps and pace, and for a while, he could be able to investigate the opponent's In front of him, Johnson made a few fake moves and couldn't let Zhang Chen give way.

However, Johnson still had a move. He used his opponent's block, and then passed by Zhang Chen's right hand. Although Zhang Chen said that he was very fast, when Johnson slipped and had to bypass one of the other players, Zhang Chen could not catch up with Johnson. Even if he caught up, his The bouncing force is not enough to support him to use a back jump or something.

Therefore, Zhang Chen could only watch Johnson enter the inside line and then pass by the fat Randorf - Randorf greeted him with his eyes and turned his body to block Johnson's way forward, but Johnson was more flexible than Randorf. He cleverly used a small Jumping, he jumped directly away from Randorff, plunged into the basket, leaving Randorff completely behind, and then he used a layup to let his team score two points at the critical moment.

"Good ball!" The Eagles went up and gave Johnson a high-five. At this critical moment, Johnson's performance gave them a reassurance and gave them enough morale to resist the revenge attack from the Knicks.

Zhang Chen controlled the ball for half-time. The most urgent thing was that they wanted to recover the score and then bite the score. Now the Knicks' lineup is quite scattered. They can only use morale and their own ball control and Du Hong's organization to maintain the situation. At this time, morale plummeted or rose sharply against the ball. The victory or defeat of the team plays a crucial role.

Zhang Chen's dribbling stopped outside the three-point line, and the inside line of the Eagles has completely returned to its place. Zhang Chen basically has no chance to lift the weight into the inside basket to score. The only way he has left now is to break in and beat the yellow dragon. However, this can't solve too many problems now. Randolph's dunks are enough. What is needed now is a three-pointer.

David Li, who was on the inside line, finally got a good position to grab the rebound with all his strength. When Zhang Chen saw this situation, he suddenly let the basketball pass through ** and came to his right finger. His hands flew beautifully, and the swing was delicate and soft. Under the control of his soft hands, the basketball was as obedient as a flower butterfly. Dancing.

Zhang Chen's ** dribbling immediately made Johnson sound the alarm bell. After all, he has found that Zhang Chen's ** dribbling is often a harbinger for him to start his attack.

Zhang Chen immediately dribbled the ball with a **, and then a forced start. Seeing that he was about to insert directly into the inside line, thinking of his frightening speed, Johnson immediately took a step back and did not let Zhang Chen easily break through his defense. Johnson's big step retreated extremely quickly. Zhang Chen also followed him and took a big step forward, which strengthened Johnson's idea that Zhang Chen was going to break through, so his big step retreated at ease.

However, Zhang Chen withdrew the basketball at the moment when Johnson withdrew a big step and was ready to take another step back, which made Johnson's idea quickly go bankrupt. In the fetus, Zhang Chen withdrew directly from the three-point line. Zhang Chen's move has been tried many times. The key lies in his fake movements that are difficult to distinguish between true and false, even yawning, and his wonderful and infinite ball control skills.

Zhang Chen retreated beyond the three-point line, and the space in front of him was open. Johnson knew that something was wrong at this time. He knew the important impact of morale on a team. If the ball could not prevent Zhang Chen and was tied, the morale of the Eagles would immediately plummet. At that time, the Knicks were full of momentum, and the players reached mutual understanding, which was really a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Johnson quickly raised his legs, but his center of gravity had shifted at that moment. At this time, wanting to catch up with Zhang Chen was tantamount to a dream, and this also aggravated the instability of his center of gravity.

So - poof - Johnson sat directly on the ground and felt ashamed and angry. Zhang Chen calmly in front of the sitting Johnson and slowly let his body leave the ground. The basketball was raised above his head. At the moment when his body reached the highest air, the basketball left his hands and flew towards the basket. Go!

"Wh!" The sound of the basketball tearing the basket was tantamount to the Knicks. This ball was hit crisply, and the most important thing was to equalize the score!

Zhang Chen's three-pointer equalized the score, and at the same time let Johnson sit on the ground, which was like a chicken blood for the Knicks' morale. The fans at the scene left their seats one after another. Zhang Chen's performance made them completely recognize that this one was fired as a new one some time ago. The young man of the King of New York, his performance is enough to take on this important task.

Up to now in this game, Zhang Chen's data has been 24 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds. This data has been quite gorgeous. Although several of his assists are a little inadvertent suspicion, after all, the data is down-to-earth there, and he has got a direct score of 24 points through his hands. Indirect score of 8 points.

"Wind God, Wind God!" The neat cheers made Randorf jealous, and he felt that he also needed to find the support of the audience's faith. So he began to run on his legs and immediately ran to the Knicks' defense, ready to grab a rebound or a big hat to cover the sky so that the big guys could get to know him well.

Randorff began to guard the inside line, and the Eagles' ball returned to Johnson's hands again.

This is the responsibility of the leader. When the team was in trouble, it was duty-bound for them to stand up. Johnson controlled the ball and slowly approached Zhang Chen. After two ** dribblings, Zhang Chen's center of gravity finally loosened a little. Speaking of which, Johnson also had a headache about the fact that he had just been shaken by Zhang Chen. Now although he knows that he can't shake Zhang Chen down, it is still possible to pass him directly.

Zhang Chen still has a headache about the shaking of these players. His current defensive skills can at most be regarded as an entry point in NBA-level attack and defense. His defense is carried out by his own flexible footsteps, speed and strength. When the opponent uses exquisite work such as butterfly walking, Zhang Chen's defensive skills are not enough.

Johnson shook Zhang Chen again and finally broke through from his side. Zhang Chen stretched out a hand and scratched him and pulled his trousers, which was judged by the referee as a defensive foul. However, Johnson's behavior of saving his team's morale was greatly reduced. When he stood on the free throw line, he made two free throws and one, and then the ball returned to the hands of the Knicks.

At the moment when Zhang Chen broke through the inside line and blocked all his ways forward, he threw the ball out of the inside line and threw it into Garinari's hands. The rookie also lived up to Zhang Chen's hope this time. He hit a jump shot outside the three-point line, making the Knicks overtake the two-point score!

"SHIT." Seeing that the score was two points behind, Johnson's face was full of frustration.

Next until the sixth minute, the initiative of the game was controlled by the Knicks for the first time. Relying on the fierceness of Randolph and Zhang Chen, as well as the efforts of everyone under morale, they finally widened the score gap to 4 points. At this time, the Eagles had to call out a timeout. Their suspension was quite sad and indignant.

Returning to the bench, Zhang Chen suddenly sat on the bench. He felt that his current physical exhaustion was too serious, and then said to Du Hong, "Hey, Chris, the next task of controlling the ball is handed over to you... To be honest, I don't want to use even a finger on my body now."

Du Hong nodded: "Chen, maybe you can take a break and let us take responsibility?"

Zhang Chen shook his head and said, "This is our game. We want to win together!" When D'Antoni heard this, he looked at Zhang Chen with a strange look. He found that Zhang Chen was more able to bring himself into the role. In fact, Zhang Chen experienced a different thing here with the Knicks.

When he was with the Suns, although he could average more than 20 points per game, he also had many good friends, including the high-weight Steve? Nash and Amaleh? Stadmeier, but his teammates didn't listen to him. At least in their eyes, even if he behaved against the sky, he was just a rookie. But here at the Knicks, he experienced that different feeling - as if the team was already his.

First of all, from the point of view of the point guard, Du Hong is more elegant and gentle in dealing with the leadership of the team. Zhang Chen's performance has made him decide to belong here. He will not oppose Zhang Chen. On the contrary, Zhang Chen can help him take on a certain ball control task and is not greedy. From this side On the surface, he is quite satisfied with Zhang Chen. Secondly, in the small forward and shooting guard, Wilson? Although Chandler has the idea of running away, he still thinks about what he says to Zhang Chen now. As for Gallinari, he regards himself as the backbone. After all, Zhang Chen was the best rookie last year, and he is also like a fish in water in the Knicks system. On the inside line, Randorff often quarrels with Zhang Chen, but there is no procrastination. After all, they are still from the same team.

David Lee made a clear statement of his attitude on the first day - I will grab the rebound for you. As for Edi Curry, although that guy is a lazy man, it also leads to his attitude that more is better than less. If he can not resist Zhang Chen, he will try not resist.

As for other players, they don't have a good position in the team. Seeing that other main players are basically respectful to Zhang Chen, and Zhang Chen seems to have an affair with D'Antoni - they know what they should do. Therefore, in summary, Zhang Chen has already had a resonant position in this team. Although Randorf wants to join a small hill, it is a pity that when he wants to counterattack, the rest of the Knicks are still far away from the well-known bad boy in this league. Therefore, Randorf can at most It's enough to scratch hard and fight with Zhang Chen. If he really wants to be powerful, he still can't do it.

This is the reason why Zhang Chen really replaced himself with a role. This is his own territory, a piece of territory that he can slowly manage here.

The suspension is over and the game starts again. After the head coach's guidance, the Eagles' morale is boosted, and their scores are well-founded. And the Knicks are still the biggest problem in this game - their offensive and defensive lineup is not neat, which is their biggest problem.

In this case, there are certain problems with the Knicks' attack and defense. First of all, there is a defensive problem. Their defense is like a group of scattered sand and fighting separately. Unfortunately, there are no exceptional defensive players among them, which leads to their lack of defensive efficiency. In terms of attack, they could not achieve a well-founded and orderly attack, so the Knicks fell into a bitter battle again.

The Eagles are targeting the weaknesses of the Knicks. Their defensive policy is to try to divide the Knicks' players to fight separately. At the same time, the home players of the Knicks have also begun to adopt joint defense, bag clips and other methods. In this case. The attack of Randorff and Zhang Chen was hindered to a certain extent.

Although Zhang Chen's offensive efficiency is still quite amazing, his physical consumption is quite fast now, which reduces his feel and offensive efficiency, so it has dropped a little compared with his peak. On the other hand, the opponent also pays more and more attention to his defense, which also makes Zhang Chen's offensive efficiency more backward.

The Knicks are really in trouble.

Zhang Chen came to the front court with control of the ball again, and then shook the defender after two consecutive shakes. Then he pulled up the jump shot outside the three-point line. The basketball swayed on the rebound and was rebounded back. At this time, David Lee, the inside line of the Knicks, jumped up and grabbed the rebound in the sky. Unfortunately, he was The opponent clicked again, and the basketball flew out of bounds.

David Li was such a desperate player. When he saw the basketball flying out of the world, his people also flew out, cut off the basketball in mid-air and then threw it back. Taking advantage of his power, Zhang Chen abruptly bumped away from his opponent and grabbed the rebound into the palm of his hand and showed light in the distance. Basket, jump shot again.

However, at the last moment of the shot, there was a feeling of powerlessness in his body. Then, the basketball lost its momentum and flew around in the sky. Finally, it still flew out of the basket, so Zhang Chen threw a jump shot again.

Zhang Chen fell from the air and couldn't help taking a breath. He made an apology gesture to David Li. David Li didn't care too much. To be honest, he was a good young man. Zhang Chen and others liked the degree of his love for rebounding. He can also make more contributions to the Knicks' second attack. Unfortunately, Zhang Chen's physical condition is no longer enough to support a high-intensity attack.

The Eagles grabbed the rebound and launched a fast attack. What the Knicks are most afraid of now is this fast attack. Such a fast attack can perfectly take advantage of the Knicks' current shortcomings and make them exhausted but can't find a solution. So, the basketball came out from the Knicks' players, went back and forth several times in people's hands, and finally came to the player closest to the basket. After the friction between the basketball and the nets, the Knicks' backward score had expanded to 8 points.

The third quarter ended in this situation. Although every Knicks player on the court worked very hard and made his own struggle, unfortunately, the opponent's attack was seven inches every time, which made the Knicks' attack and defense unable to move. Therefore, the end of this quarter made the Knicks players feel quite suffothed.

Zhang Chen sat on the stool and sweated. Now he felt that his strength had been completely exhausted. He played the first and third quarters, and nearly 6 minutes in the second quarters, which made his already precarious physical strength close to the edge of collapse. Therefore, after his score rose to 32 points, his physical strength also reached a critical point.

Now the score is 71:62, and the Knicks are 9 points behind.
