What everyone didn't expect at the end of the second quarter was that the one who scored the highest score in the half was not the inside killer Darko Milicic, whom everyone speculated before the game, nor the all-around warrior LeBron James, nor the scoring master Devin
Wade and Carmelo Anthony, but first-year Ben Gordon, who actually threw seven three-pointers under James' defense. As long as he had room to shoot, he even blocked his sight several times when James
Throw the ball in.
In the locker room, everyone was teasing James. Because it was the rookie game, everyone didn't care so much about the outcome. Moreover, everyone was still very confident. Subconsciously, they always felt that playing with these first-year guys was a good idea.
It's a very simple thing. As long as you work hard, you can complete the reversal. However, James was angry. He originally thought that if Milicic didn't score this time, no one would be able to steal his limelight. But what he didn't expect was that he was beaten by James.
Gordon, an unknown guy, has done something wrong for himself. It can be said that these second-year rookies are basically the bosses of any team they put on, but they were made like this by such a small shooter. Although James thought so in his heart,
That's not what he said. James said with a smile: "I have always wanted to see how accurate this kid is, so I didn't try my best to guard against him. It seems to be pretty good. I will tell the management if I have the opportunity.
Let him come to Cleveland and be my little brother." That's what James did at the beginning, but by the middle of the second quarter, James had tried his best to defend, even treating the opponent as Pierce.
A star of the same level, but he has to reflect on his initial negligence, because once this kind of hall-level shooter finds the feel, all he does is shake his wrist after catching the ball. The feeling of his fingers has been adjusted to
At your best, all you can do is pick up the ball.
Fortunately, the second-grade team is only 11 points behind the first-grade team. The reason why the first-grade team can take the lead is not only Ben Gordon's credit, but also Al Jefferson's influence in the paint.
Bosh couldn't be found. Although Bosh is tall and has long arms, compared with Al Jefferson's strength and inside skills, he is still far behind. The commentators on the sidelines are saying, Al
Jefferson has learned a lot from Milicic's side, and I believe he will become an All-Star level insider in the near future.
Every time Milicic was replaced in the second grade to try to contain Al Jefferson, Jefferson would take a break. This also made Bosh even more angry. Bosh looked at Al Jefferson.
With that stupid face, I thought to myself that this guy is just here for me!
Milicic has not scored in this game so far, but he has contributed 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal. It can even be said that his presence has prevented the sophomore team from being stretched too far.
In the first possession of the second half, Ben Gordon got the ball and was one step away from the three-point line. Before James could react, he opened his hand and shot a three-pointer, and the ball hit the net again.
This goal made James even more frustrated. Although his body was very powerful, he was not very mature mentally. Such a blow made him begin to doubt his ability. James even appeared in a trance on the court. 2.
The senior team called a timeout, replaced James off the court, and adjusted the lineup to point guards: Luke Ridnour, Kirk Hinrich, Devin Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Darko Milicic.
This lineup can be said to use three small guards with relatively strong mobility, a flexible small forward, and Milicic, a traditional center who is said to be the most flexible in the league.
The first-year team had won by mobility before. Ben Gordon was already relatively small, and then he replaced Luol Deng and let Iguodala and Josh Smith, two guys with even more physical abnormalities than Anthony and James, play.
, with Howard and Okafor on the inside, it is natural that he will not suffer too much. Coupled with Ben Gordon's excellent touch, it is natural to take the lead.
Before playing again, Milicic said to Wade: "Devin, if you go to help Kirk defend Gordon, you must suppress his touch. Only in this way can we reverse the situation, otherwise we will continue with his three-point shooting rate."
, we may become the most shameful second-year team."
Wade also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Dakko, I understand what you mean, I must kick this kid's ass hard."
Wade is not as arrogant as James and Anthony, which also makes Milicic have the best impression of him. Milicic also does not forget to take care of Wade's face. You must know that this guy is the Finals MVP, so he said
: "I know that in terms of guard defense, you can rank among the top three in the league, so this game depends on you. As for the vacated Iguodala or Smith, you don't have to worry, they don't have the ability to shoot mid-range and long-range shots.
When I rush to the basket, I will defend it well."
When Wade heard that Milicic gave him such a high evaluation, he was naturally heartened and said to himself: "It turns out that this guy still recognizes my ability."
After coming on the field, when Ben Gordon caught the ball under Hinrich's defense, Wade rushed out from the diagonal. As fast as lightning, he directly intercepted the ball, rushed to the unguarded opponent's basket, and scored directly
With a split dunk, he gave the first-grade team a showdown.
Milicic waved his arms, pointed at Wade and shouted loudly: "Beautiful! Flash!"
Barkley on the sidelines heard this and said: "What? Flash! This name really suits Dwyane Wade. I didn't expect that this guy Dakko is also very talented in giving nicknames. It's a pity that when I was young,
I didn't meet such a person when I was a kid, so I got such an unpleasant nickname."
Kenny Smith on the side smiled playfully and said to Buckley: "Well, it's a pity. It's a pity that Darko is not a woman. Otherwise, maybe he wouldn't call you the Flash, and it's very possible that he would call you the Flash."
This time, one defense and one offense immediately gained two points, and the score gap returned to single digits again. Even with Wade's calm personality, he couldn't help but shake his arms in excitement.
Ben Gordon saw Wade a little stunned just now and couldn't help but shook his head and said: "This guy seems to be much faster than when he was in college!"
Gordon and Wade had played against each other in college, and Wade was hit by Gordon on the winning mid-range shot over the head, so Wade was already angry and wanted to teach Gordon a lesson.
So after scoring a goal, Wade did not forget to come over and say to Gordon: "This is just the beginning!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, your support is
