The whole team was out of temper. This was the result that Larry Brown wanted to see. He trained the Pistons to become a bloody team. In this case, the players were often able to focus more on the game and be more effective.
The desire to win.
Of course, Larry Brown will not suppress this emotion. Iverson and Marbury have been suppressed off the court for long enough. They are not people who are willing to be lonely. Larry Brown has put on another set this time.
A quick lineup of "one big one with four small ones". Point guard Marbury, shooting guard Iverson, small forward Anthony, power forward James, and center Duncan.
This lineup is extremely mobile and has extremely fast counterattack and advancement speed. Facing the tall lineup of Serbia and Montenegro, it will have some advantages in some aspects.
Marbury dribbled the ball forward. He was shaking in disguise under Bodilloga's defense. Suddenly he made a street ball and passed the ball under Bodilloga's crotch. The ball broke through and missed Bodilloga.
, this change suddenly tore open the defense line of Serbia and Montenegro. The ball came in from an incredible position, which made the defense personnel of Serbia and Montenegro unable to react in time. Seeing that Marbury was about to shoot, Milicic rushed over to interfere.
, Marbury jumped into the air and was still able to control himself. He took the ball from Milicic's ribs and passed it to the unattended LeBron James in front. Serbian and Black insider Kostic was tightly squeezed by Duncan. James
How could such an opportunity be wasted? He took a step in from the free throw line and dunked with both hands with his eyes parallel to the basket.
The rim was still shaking when James fell. This dunk wiped away the stagnation in James' chest. He roared like a beast that had broken free of its shackles.
Bodiloga came over and patted Milicic on the shoulder and said: "This ball belongs to me, but the next time I let him shoot, the height of our lineup cannot rotate so quickly. Sometimes we have to put them in the distance."
Jump shots, bet on their percentage."
It was not easy for Serbian and Montenegro Bodiloga to dribble the ball to the frontcourt after receiving the ball in the backcourt. Marbury was constantly interfering. As long as there was a slight slack, the ball might be intercepted and a counterattack would take place at any time.
After moving to the frontcourt, Bodiloga saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Milicic inside. After all, besides himself, Milicic was the only one in this lineup. When the ball was misplaced, as soon as the ball reached Milicic's
James, who was defending behind him with his hands in his hands, shouted: "Come on! Haven't you always wanted to defeat the emperor? If you defeat the emperor, you are no longer a parallel import. Come on!"
Milicic has indeed always thought this in his heart. Milicic's remaining memory of his dislike of James is not as simple as a bit. Unfortunately, he did not have any chance to prove himself in his rookie season, even standing on the same court with James.
Going to competitive sports has become a luxury.
Milicic leaned forward, and James behind him was like a rock. He only swayed slightly and did not push back. With such power, it is no wonder that Larry Brown dared to put him in the power forward position. Milicic leaned forward continuously.
After two hits, James took a small step back. Milicic pressed James with the left side of his body, took two steps and made a small hook on tiptoe. James couldn't take off at all. Milicic was waiting to see after the ball was released.
The ball fell hollowly into the net. At this time, a big hand stretched out and directly capped the ball to the side. It was Tim Duncan. He was an inconspicuous person and had been providing stable offensive and defensive capabilities for the US team.
He complements the interior defense of this small lineup system.
The ball went out without a cap. Kostic picked up the ball and went for a layup. At this time, another big hand slapped the ball hard, and the ball flew directly into the audience.
LeBron James' shoulder almost hit the bottom edge of the backboard. The height of his jump made Krstic stunned. After taking the ball out, he collided hard with Duncan's chest. Even a player like Duncan who has never wavered has unexpectedly
They were all ignited by James.
When it was the U.S. team's turn to attack, James actually signaled for the entire team to spread out. He wanted to fight Milicic, Duncan, Iverson, and Marbury in isolation. Of course, big brothers like him knew that he was getting angry with Milicic, so naturally he also
Just let him have a go.
After receiving the ball, James faced Milicic's defense and made a fake shot. Milicic did not stumble. Then he made a real shot for the second time. The ball drew an arc and ran towards the basket.
, this action was too fast. When Milicic turned around to look at the trajectory of the basketball, the ball had already hit the basket and bounced out.
At this time, LeBron had already descended from the sky like a roc, covering up the clouds and the sun. He dunked with both hands and the ball hit hard. After the ball was scored, James shouted: "No one can challenge the emperor! No one can challenge the emperor."
!”
At this moment, even the entire stadium audience turned against him and cheered for James.
Milicic's mind went blank at this moment, and scenes from the past flashed by like a film: As Li Xiao, he entered the workplace with high hopes after graduating from college, but his income was not as high as that of migrant workers moving bricks, and he was beaten every day
He drinks here and there, caters to the leaders and old employees at work gatherings, and swallows bitter wine one glass at a time; as Milicic, he watches his mother sell off almost all of her family property just to buy back a head.
Cows came to supply the milk he drank; Milicic sat alone on the bench watching the Pistons win, watching James, Anthony, Wade, Bosh and other rookies fight on the court, and he seemed to be
Isolated to the other end of the court, the players are fighting hard and the fans are cheering, but their corner will never be illuminated by the spotlight...
Bodiloga passed the ball to Pavlovic. Pavlovic did not take the little Iverson seriously and directly opened his hand for a three-pointer, but Iverson just jumped up and pointed his fingertips.
When he clicked on the basketball, the ball was short and hit the front edge of the basket. Milicic squeezed James away and grabbed the ball in his hand. But as soon as his feet landed, James had already slapped the ball to the ground with his big hand. Milicic
Qi quickly bent down to grab the ball. At this time, James' flexibility was revealed. James grabbed the ball and hit Milicic's brow bone with his knee while running. Milicic fell directly to the ground and instantly became conscious.
Somewhat unconscious, I could only hear bursts of cheers.
Over there, James caught the ball and ended the offense with a dominating dunk, and the stadium was filled to the brim.
In the second quarter, Milicic came off the court for treatment while James went on a killing spree. In this quarter, James scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
At the end of the second quarter, the U.S. team led 43-35.
