Chapter 471 Attack the Holy City with 2:0! (Reissue)
At the moment of the decisive battle, no matter how confident Sima Wei was in his disciples who had been trained by him for many years, he could not choose to fight GDP from the beginning of the final period.
After all, their opponents are all this year's regular season champions!
GDP brought the Spurs young master and Diaw to play together. In this lineup, except for the young master Leonard, Parker and Diaw, the younger ones among the four, are both 32 years old.
As for the younger Split, who was born in 1985, Simavici has decisively given up.
This also means that Duncan needs to take the initiative to face off against the Trail Blazers No. 36. For a 38-year-old veteran, it is undoubtedly a difficult challenge.
The Blazers' response was also very simple and crude, and they directly brought back the Five Tigers.
"The time has come for the real bayonet fight!"
At this moment, Barkley did not play tricks as usual, but looked extremely serious, watching everything on the court.
The commentary seats at the imperial court on the other side.
"The first attack of the fourth quarter is the Blazers' possession, we must score it!" Xu Jicheng explained sonorously, his eyes full of expectation.
When the game restarted, the Trail Blazers did not show much urgency because they were ten points behind, and the audience and media did not see any signs of decline from them.
These young people are still full of energy!
Lillard handed the ball to Wang Zelin just after halftime. The Spurs' No. 21 rookie reacted immediately, but his old body could no longer keep up, and his heart wanted to fly.
As soon as Wang Zelin got the ball, he took the initiative to greet the defender before he came over.
Seeing Wang Zelin rushing over, Duncan knew that not only did he have no chance of becoming the former, but he was also one step behind.
Fortunately, in the short corner area on the left wing, Diaw kept staring at the team of the two. Sensing that Duncan was helpless, he decisively approached the center and adopted double-teaming or fouling tactics at any time.
When Wang Zelin reached the paint area, Diaw had already approached from the other side.
At this time, choosing to pass on Aldridge is undoubtedly a wise move.
But in the basketball world, how can we always pay attention to rationality? In other words, there cannot be too much rationality in sports competitions.
To put it bluntly, the main excitement of sports competitions is that they can arouse resonance. An excellent sports competition can allow the audience and athletes to empathize with each other, thereby releasing the inner wildness.
On the basketball court, it is obvious that the word "blood" is the eternal theme.
Therefore, facing Duncan's close defense and Diaw's intentional foul, Wang Zelin did not pass the ball, but took off towards the basket as usual.
Sometimes, leaving your body to the sky is the best solution to various accidents on the basketball court.
Pa~~~
Dior slapped Wang Zelin hard on his right forearm. The sound caused by the huge force moved countless people.
Duncan did not show any weakness, raised his hands in the air, and tried his best to create obstacles for Wang Zelin.
However, even in such a difficult situation and faced with strong interference from the two men, Wang Zelin did not make any mistakes. He held the basketball tightly with both hands and threw it into the sky with all his strength...
"Bang-swish!"
Under the spotlight, the basketball finally hit the basket!
Before they could recover, almost at the same moment, the referee's whistle sounded...
Beep~~~
"And one!"
In the TNT live broadcast booth, Kenny Smith and Barkley looked at each other and were speechless, unable to say a word.
For a moment, the two of them felt that they saw a light in Wang Zelin... a dazzling light that was enough to overshadow his contemporaries and at the same time sweep countless predecessors into the garbage heap of history.
It’s time for this part of the Alliance to welcome a new owner!
"MVP! MVP! MVP!"
In the Rose Garden Arena, when the fans on the watch list reacted, all kinds of noises and cheers broke out. Everyone was celebrating their inner excitement in their own way.
But in the end, thousands of words merged into one sentence - "MVP!"
Yes, in 1978, after the "Red Giant" Bill Walton won his first regular season MVP trophy and was also the first regular season MVP born since the establishment of the Trail Blazers... 36 years later,
The Portland Trail Blazers finally have their second regular season MVP in history, the first player of the new generation from the mysterious ancient oriental kingdom of China—Wang Zelin!
History seems to be a cycle.
Previously, the only regular season MVP winner for the Trail Blazers was the great center Bill Walton. After Walton, many outstanding players appeared one after another in Portland:
For example, Drexler, the glider who once challenged Air Jordan;
For example, Brandon Roy, the Yellow Mamba, was once hailed as the strongest shooting guard of the new generation after Kobe Bryant;
Another example is Oden, the first-generation great king who defeated Durant to be elected as the No. 1 pick in 2007, but only left people with endless reveries. In the end, his figure sadly disappeared from the NBA...
After so many years, the young man who inherited the will of the Red Giant is as expected by Portland fans. He is a super center seed with unlimited potential.
However, what people often don't expect is that this young man is not only over 100 million points younger, but his growth rate is also sky-high.
In the second year of his debut, he personally broke the record of Derrick Rose, the Windy City Rose, and became the youngest MVP winner in NBA history.
at last,
Again.
The MVP has been won, can the championship be far behind?
…
Return to the playing field.
With a strong 2+1 score, 73:74, Wang Zelin helped the Trail Blazers quickly narrow the difference between the two teams to only 1 point.
What's even more rare is that after scoring the difficult taxi balloon, Wang Zelin didn't show any joy:
"Defend! Defend! Bring out our strongest side!"
After scoring the goal, Wang Zelin glanced at Duncan, then said hello to his teammates and quickly retreated.
Although he is only a sophomore, he is still a solid young man, but every move he makes on the court symbolizes who is the true leader of the Trail Blazers...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Who is the real king of the rose garden!
The Spurs also want to do what they did in the first three quarters, with Ginobili breaking up the defensive formation first, and then cooperating with Duncan and Diaw in high posts to drive the team to continue to attack efficiently.
And now, the Trail Blazers' defense is completely different from the past three levels.
With Wang Zelin's "white jade pillar holding up the sky and purple golden beam bridging the sea", the Trail Blazers' defense gradually became more orderly, like a headless fly, always unable to grasp the defensive focus.
Despite three fouls, Batum was still unafraid to confront Ginobili, and fans didn't even see the two trash-talking each other.
The change in the will to fight brought a doubling of confidence to the Blazers players. Batum did not hesitate to put down his face and bite the defense like a mad dog, which made Ginobili somewhat unable to resist.
So far, Ginobili has played for 15 minutes. Don't forget, this guy has the title of "20 Minutes Jordan" hanging on his head.
Of course, this does not mean that Ginobili can only play well for 20 minutes in a game. From the beginning, "20-minute Jordan" has been a well-established reputation.
However, this also leads to physical issues that have persisted throughout Ginobili's entire career.
Many Yang Yi in later generations, ah, no, it was the fans who said that the peak demon sword must taste the peak bearded player. In fact, just listen to this. If anyone really believes it, then they are definitely watching football without thinking.
I don’t think about how smart Spurs coach Sima Wei is. If Yaodao really has the physical ability to play all year round, is it necessary to put him on the bench all the time?
In the final analysis, my own abilities are still not enough.
Back to business.
Under Batum's tireless entanglement, Ginobili made several snake-shaped breakthrough attempts to no avail, and chose to set up a cover with Diaw, who took advantage of the situation and cut in.
Snapped--
Ginobili distributed the ball in time, Diaw cut in to catch the ball, took two steps, and announced takeoff.
Under the premise of only 203CM, he can still play the position of power forward, and even swing to the center occasionally. In addition to his extremely high basketball IQ, there is another sentence that is very appropriate in English -
Fatty is so flexible!
Although he is obviously fat, he can find some moves that require high agility attributes. Every time he sees him, he can't help but sigh.
After rushing up, Diaw grabbed the ball with both hands, with only the damn basket in his sight.
But at this moment, a strong wind blew up from behind, and a black shadow emerged.
There was just a "pop" sound, and a big hand pressed the rising basketball onto the backboard.
"Yes!"
The home fans and the Trail Blazers bench were in an uproar, and the exclamations of countless people almost overturned the entire dome of the Rose Garden.
"God descends to earth! Ultimate defense!"
Xu Jicheng shouted excitedly.
"呲呲!"
With a heartbreaking sound, Wang Zelin picked the ball off the backboard.
Seeing this scene, in front of the Spurs bench, Sima Weiwei felt the cool breeze under the seat, quickly stood up and shouted:
"Pay attention to counterattack! Get back to defense quickly! Get back to defense!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Spurs players on the field turned around and saw that the Trail Blazers' No. 0 suddenly appeared near the center circle at some unknown moment. The next moment, he was about to reach his own half.
Tony Parker and Leonard had just started, chasing forward with wind in their footsteps, when a big black mouse suddenly flashed through the air.
Hey, wait, that's not some big black rat?
It's that damn basketball!
It turned out that the moment Wang Zelin landed, his outstanding vision allowed him to immediately notice Lillard's movement, so he threw him out before anyone had time to react.
TNT live broadcast seats.
"Here it comes! The familiar and weird feeling is back!"
Kenny Smith's eyes were widened, and he was constantly staring at the field below.
"The cooperation from the center passing the ball to the defender!" Barkley shouted a few times and continued:
"Haha, such a weird scene will probably only happen in the active league in Portland!"
On the court, Lillard had already completed his personal show in the Spurs halftime. He turned around and saw Wang Zelin. He did not forget the well-digger and decisively gave the latter a thumbs up!
The stands were boiling again.
Not only because of the exquisite cooperation of the Trail Blazers twin stars throughout the game, but more importantly, after Lillard scored the goal, it was officially announced that the Trail Blazers 75:74, they achieved a lead over the Spurs.
The balance of victory begins to tilt like this for the Trail Blazers!
Beep~~
Seeing that his opponent was in a hot state, Simaweiji did not hesitate and decisively called the first timeout in the final quarter, hoping to interrupt the opponent's hot state.
However, since the second game of the Western Conference Finals series, the coaches of both sides are well aware of each other's tactics. At the same time, they know even more clearly that on such a stage, once the critical moment is reached, the most reliable players have to be the stars.
As expected, after the timeout, the Spurs handed the ball to their absolute cornerstone, Tim Duncan.
Of course, this man who is accustomed to silence did not disappoint the fans and teammates who supported him.
Facing Wang Zelin's extremely oppressive one-on-one defense, Shi Fo leaned on the opponent, turned around, and shot from mid-range.
"Bang-swish!"
It's this move again, a 45-degree angle hitting the board full of Shi Buddha's personal signature.
Simple, unpretentious, yet so incomprehensible!
76:75, the Spurs took the lead by 1 point.
"You have the king, we have Tim!"
"We also have an MVP!"
"Give it a try and beat the opponent, Tim!"
In the stands, the two to three thousand Spurs fans who came to support the home team were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
Because all Spurs fans know that hot man will never let them down at any time.
"Stone Buddha Duncan! It's still stable!"
Yang Yi couldn't help but sigh.
"Give me the ball!"
Suddenly, a roar came from the field, breaking the jubilation of the Spurs.
Following the sound, I looked over and saw that the roar was none other than No. 36 of the Warriors and Trail Blazers - Wang Zelin!
"You shameless bastard..."
A Spurs fan in the stands hasn't finished spraying yet...
"King! King! King!"
The rose garden instantly turned into a sea of cheers.
What is home field advantage?
This is where TMD’s home field advantage lies!
"I have foreseen that in the near future, the Rose Garden Arena will become a devil's home stadium that is feared by everyone in the league!"
Xu Jicheng took a look at the auditorium, and sure enough, the morale of the nearly 3,000 visiting team fans was gone.
Next, it depends on the players themselves.
The Trail Blazers attacked and Wang Zelin got the ball inside.
"Guard him, guard him to death!"
Sima Wei was so angry that he jumped up and kept yelling.
"Come on Tim, let me see how many miles of your defense you have left in your prime!"
Facing Wang Zelin's provocation, Duncan remained unmoved on the surface, but his body was very sincere and he stuck to him honestly.
snort!
Wang Zelin glanced at Duncan funny, turned sideways, and bumped into the latter.
There was a bang, and Duncan was caught off guard. He did not have time to exert force to resist the huge impact, and took two steps back. By the time he reacted, it was already too late.
"boom!"
Wang Zelin exploded the Spurs' basket.
77:76, the Spurs finally raised their morale, but this dunk was torn to pieces. After all, the main defender of Wang Zelin was Tim Duncan, the soul of the Spurs. Even though he was already 38, Duncan is still the Spurs' defensive system.
Core.
But now, not even their core can stop Wang Zelin's scoring momentum.
Could it be said that we really want our opponent to go to the Holy City with a 2:0 lead?
