Chapter 436 The peak internal and external duel in the 1970s is the next big chapter~
In the last few minutes, it was still G7 of the finals, and their concentration and defensive intensity were evident. But the more some people are like this, the more they can use their abilities and strengths. For example, New York 10 Walter Frazier is one of them. Take a look.
If you look at the detailed statistics of his career, you will find that he often steps forward in key games to help the New York Knicks overcome difficulties.
So this game was the same. After seeing the Lakers score consecutive goals, Walter Frazier once again stood up personally.
However, these were all within Tang Qian's expectations, because he played against the New York team not once or twice a day. The accumulation of more than a dozen games allowed him to already know the key points and key figures of his opponent.
Know it in your chest.
Walter Frazier rushed into the paint, because the closer you are to the basket at this time, the higher the success rate of shooting. New York No. 10's idea is correct. But... he didn't figure it out.
The Lakers on the 13th and the previous 40 minutes were completely different. The 6 minutes of rage bonus was enough to sustain a surplus at the end of the game.
71%, that’s the effect of tonight’s rage.
It seems that my luck is not too bad after all.
Such a large increase ratio was enough to completely offset the influence of the "inner demon", and Tang Qian also entered a state that was far beyond the normal level.
"Good! This is a block. Wilt Chamberlain defended our penalty area in Los Angeles!!!" After seeing the Lakers block the shot on the 13th, Chick Hearn immediately shouted excitedly. He was blocked
After blocking, Walter Frazier only glanced at "Tang Qian" and thought to himself: You are indeed still evil, Goliath, but we have to decide the championship this season!
This season's FMVP, I, Walter Frazier, have to decide!
This is an obvious thing. Therefore, Willis Reed was injured and did not play in this playoffs. Therefore, once the New Yorkers win the championship, the person who wins the FMVP will not be No. 10, Walter Frazier.
.Although he will not compete openly and covertly with Reed, it does not mean that he does not desire FMVP at all. This award may not have been established for a long time, but everyone with a discerning eye has seen that he will improve his future historical status.
Extremely important.
So Walter Frazier also wanted to take advantage of the absence of the team boss to get the next one.
Otherwise, when Reed returns from injury, he knows very well that it will be difficult for this top award to fall on his head.
Unlike later generations, even in the first ten years of the 21st century, almost all FMVPs are in the hands of the team boss. No matter what your average contribution per game is, you can’t escape. Of course, this makes sense. First, the team boss usually
He is the one with the strongest strength in the team, and there is nothing wrong with that; secondly, the season contribution of the boss of the team is definitely the biggest and most important one. It is not enough to negate the overall contribution of the "boss" in just one series.
Fair, so as long as the team leader is on the court, it is impossible to award the FMVP to anyone else. Why did you say that the 1976 Finals MVP was awarded to Joe Joe White instead of John Havlicek? There are many reasons
Simple, Havlicek was no longer the boss of that team in 1976, and he only had about 34 minutes of playing time. In the playoffs, he only averaged 13.2 points per game. This is already Havlicek.
Except for the lowest score in his rookie season in his career, he was a bit similar to Jerry West this season. He suddenly declined sharply. In fact, his scoring average in the playoffs returned to 18+ the next season. But
The data doesn't mean anything, because Reed's FMVP in the 1972-73 season was also close to "shit" data, so the most important thing is that that season, Havlicek was no longer the boss of the "Celtics"
identity, that's why the Finals MVP changed hands to Joe Joe White's head.
But the New York Knicks are different. Willis Reed has always been recognized as the absolute boss of the team. In this case, as long as he is on the court, even if he produces relatively mediocre data, he will 100% win the FMVP.
That's why he has the title of "one of the most impressive FMVPs in NBA history". According to the standards of later generations, he averaged 28+ playing time, 12.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in the playoffs. I'm afraid he won't get it no matter what.
Less than the honor of FMVP. After all, even in rebounding, which he is best at, in the playoffs that year, he only had 0.3 more times than Walter Frazier. Yes, only 0.3 times, and the data was completely surpassed by Frazier.
After all, he still won an FMVP in this way, which is really a great blessing in life.
You must know that this season, there is no sensational drama of "Reed is back". It is completely relying on his status as the team leader to steal the FMVP from his teammates. The only exception is "Ancient Iguoda"
"La", Cedric Maxwell. His regular season data and playoff data were not outstanding that year. He relied on his performance in the finals to overpower Larry Bird and forcefully win an FMVP. Watch the season
According to the post-game data, it seems that Bird was much better than him, but in the finals, except for Bird's magical goal in the first game, most of the rest of the game was frozen! Yes, it was frozen, and there were even two
He only scored 8 points in the game. This made Cedric Maxwell the Celtics' leading scorer in that round of the Finals. But things were not that simple... because although Bird averaged 10 points per game in that round of the Finals,
Although he didn't score high, he still got super all-around data of 15+15+7+2. Compare that to teammate Cedric Maxwell's finals average of 18+10+3. Shouldn't he be more worthy of getting the FMVP?
?
But history is so "weird", that year's FMVP finally went to Cedric Maxwell House.
But taking other factors into account, you will find that Larry Bird was only a "sophomore" that year, so the team's status was far less stable than later, and it could not be called the "absolute boss." But now the Knicks
The team is different. Willis Reed has been playing in New York for seven or eight years. The team has long formed "absolute authority" and "absolute power." So if Walter Frazier wants to win the FMVP, basically
It's impossible. So Reid is here, so he doesn't care. Anyway, he doesn't have such a strong desire to argue. The championship is the most important reward for him, but since Reid is not there...
So why can't I win this FMVP?
With this mentality, Walter Frazier entered the "explosion state" again, and the war light in his eyes was sharp and powerful.
But the current No. 13 of the Lakers, how can he be the same as before? The furious blessing and the crisis of life and death all made him do his best for this G7. So the remaining few minutes have completely become "superstar time".
Inside and outside, the two opponents began to fight madly head-on. This scene is definitely the favorite of the fans, let alone the biggest stage and the most critical game? There is no need for Chick Hearn to mobilize the atmosphere.
The 17,000 spectators in the audience gradually stood up, shouted loudly, and cheered vigorously.
"Wilt, once again got the ball in the low post, he still chose to play in the low post, once, twice, good~ Jerry Lucas' defense broke down, and Wilt dunked! The Lakers caught up with another 2-pointer.
!" Chick Hearn said into the commentary microphone: "ah~ha~ Wilt seems to be six or seven years younger tonight. Has that low-post monster who dominated everything on the offensive end reappeared???
"
Damn it, why did he become so powerful all of a sudden? Wouldn't he be tired and feel his physical energy consumption? No. 32 of the New York Knicks thought in confusion. Because under normal circumstances, as the game progresses,
As time goes by, the strength and energy of the human body will gradually weaken. After all, the flesh and blood body is no better than a machine, and there are still physiological fluctuations. But the No. 13 in front of me clearly broke out suddenly, and the power was much greater than before, so he cut it hard
I was just like chipping an egg, easily, one or two... it shattered all over the place.
"The New Yorkers are still attacking. Walter Frazier's attack speed is very fast. He passed Jerry with a disguised cross, and then went straight into the Lakers' inside line. Wilt, don't let him succeed, be ruthless
Give him a hard slap!" By now, the home commentator's home attribute has been completely awakened, and at this time, no one is paying attention to whether his commentary is "fair", because now, first of all, Chick.
Well, he is a "Los Angeles Laker", and then he is the on-site commentator.
Jerry West's performance in this round of the series, let alone his explosion and explosion, was difficult even if he wanted to perform at a normal level. Therefore, facing the "explosion" Walter Frazier, the Lakers' No. 44 was already
It's a bit powerless. At this time, the only thing that the Great Western Forum can count on is the giant interior tower, "Wilt Chamberlain."
"Come on, Wilt, let him know how powerful we Los Angeles people are~"
"Wilt~fuck him to death~show the momentum of your giant Goliath~"
"Wilt~ Lead us to win G7~ I'm begging you~"
"Wilt~ Kill the damn New Yorkers~ You are our new hero in Los Angeles~"
"Wilt~..."
It was an unprecedented feeling. The eyes, voices, thoughts, expectations, and hopes of the fans in the audience were all focused on me. Although I was wearing the body of "Wilt Chamberlain",
But the emotion gathered by the whole audience still made him feel excited.
What is a star player? What is a superstar player? What is a super giant player? The one who can carry the expectations and hopes of all the fans at the last moment... is the real star. Although Tang Qian
He has been in the NBA for a while, but most of the time he has been a substitute. Occasionally he has made a "highlight performance", which is just an "unexpected joy" and an "unexpected gain". He will definitely not be as powerful as he is now.
Such intense gaze and focus.
This experience was strange, but it was enough to impress him.
It turns out...this is what it feels like to be a star.
At the last moment, the expectations and shouts of tens of thousands of people exist only for you.
I surge only for you.
I...I don't want to waste this rare opportunity...
I...I want to catch him...
……catch him……
Under the hope of the fans in the audience, "Tang Qian's" mental power was completely concentrated, and no distracting thoughts existed anymore.
But the opponent is not a weakling. In G7 two years ago, it was precisely because of his explosive performance that he completely defeated the Los Angeles Lakers. Therefore, New York No. 10 has extremely strong self-confidence and strong belief.
The strong showdown, the flames of war are flying.
His goal was also very simple. He didn't do anything "fancy", he just hit hard and tried to inflict the sixth personal foul on Lakers No. 13. "Tang Qian" also saw his plan, but now,
He can't avoid it. If he avoids it, the Lakers' interior line under the basket will be completely "vacuum", and New York No. 10 can get whatever he wants.
This is the key offense and defense, and for "Tang Qian", it has more meaning.
If you can't win, you just...die.
Be a lifelong "prisoner of time and space".
So he has no way out.
Pa~
"Ho~~~~~~~~god~~~~~~ Wilt guarded our inside line! Wilt protected our penalty area!! He blocked Walter Frazier's attack.
Basketball!!!" As soon as the result came out, Chick Hearn was the first to speak out: "At the last moment tonight, Wilt Chamberlain has regained his greatness and prosperity. He can lead us to a reversal. He
You can lead us to win the championship!!!"
yeah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The entire Great Western Forum arena burst into cheers, as if "Tang Qian" had just done something extraordinary.
This voice from the heart makes Lakers No. 13 feel happy and comfortable.
He discovered that he actually liked this kind of scene.
Got blocked again? This big guy, his state tonight...
Walter Frazier was startled at first, but soon returned to normal, his eyes turned cold, and he said:
It seems that tonight, you have also ignited the desire to win.
The desire to win has nothing to do with whether you want to win. The former means winning, you must win, while the latter just wants to win, and the degree of expression is very different. Wilt Chamberlain used to belong to the latter, basketball is just a job
, his energy still needs to be used in many places, including track and field, fitness, movies, nightclubs, shot put, volleyball, bang bang bang... and so on, so when it comes to the top ten or even the top twenty super giants in history,
Wilt Chamberlain always has the most base desire to win.
If he could have the "Lord of the Rings" kind of attitude and desire to win, two championships wouldn't be enough.
At least double that.
However, having held the league's No. 1 or No. 2 annual salary for a long time, Chamberlain's fighting spirit was rarely ignited.
In fact, as long as he truly ignites his desire to win, he will never win the championship.
One in the 1960s and one this season. They are all achievements achieved through a true desire for the championship.
The former successfully transformed and became a truly balanced offensive and defensive No. 5 position; the latter went into battle with injuries and injured both hands, but still gritted his teeth and persisted, so he finally won the 1972 FMVP. However, at such times, he rarely appears in "
In the career of "Da Shuai", because most of the time, he is a serious "worker" rather than a "competitor" or "winner" who must win.
But when he truly ignited his desire to win, no one in this league dared to underestimate him.
Including New York team 10, Walter Frazier.
But...will I lose to you?
Wilt Chamberlain, are you thinking too beautifully?
You have aroused the desire to win, so why don’t I? And...I will definitely be stronger, more explosive, and more fierce than you!
Tonight's game, the 1972 championship, all belong to me, Walter Frazier!
You can't stop me! No one can stop me!!!
Under the stimulation of the two big hats, the "New York Thief"'s heart began to contract powerfully.
A large amount of fresh blood immediately rushed to Walter Frazier's limbs and bones.
He has entered "The.Zone state".
An unprecedented powerful force and powerful state gradually took shape, and violence roared in the blood of New York 10.
"Tang Qian" of the Lakers scored another goal. It seemed that Jerry Lucas' defense completely collapsed. He was only rebounding in this game and entered "The.Zone". This is actually not useful for defense.
Not too big. So facing the "angry" Lakers No. 13, he was powerless and was completely "beaten".
Jerry Lucas swore that he had tried his best to defend the ball just now, and even used many unconventional "moves". However... he still couldn't trap this "raging" beast.
, was pushed hard from the front, and the defense was shattered.
The whole person was ashamed, angry, and extremely embarrassed.
But "Tang Qian" and Walter Frazier didn't have time to care about him, because this last moment was the "showdown time" between the two of them. There were so many people waiting, they were not even qualified to enter.
"Walter Frazier forced a hard hit, fought against the basket, and threw the basket with his left arm straight! The basketball escaped Wilt's palm... and went in!" In Chick Hearn's commentary, Walter Frazier
Zedao: "How about Wilt? Do you think you are the only one who can be serious? This is the finals, a stage for big hearts! Are you a big heart?" After saying that, he turned around and left, not giving the Lakers any attention.
Opportunity for team No. 13 to retaliate.
"Wilt, you..." Jerry West was about to speak, but was interrupted and said: "It's okay, Jerry, just give me the next ball and I'll take care of it." After he finished speaking, he
He also ran towards the frontcourt. Jerry West instantly understood that the desire to fight in teammate No. 13 had completely risen. This might... be the last straw to save the Lakers this season!
After the war, West no longer desires FMVP, high scores, or high statistics. Now he just wants the Lakers to win, and then win the NBA championship that is so close at hand. His only wish is,
That's it, it doesn't matter to him who can step forward to save the team! He is willing to help everyone!
This is a very wise decision. If the state is not good and you still want to take over everything, even if you win the data, you will continue to be the "overall runner-up" and be ridiculed. And Jerry West,
He is obviously a smart man, he knows what he wants and what he should do.
After he dribbled the ball through the half court, he made a gesture of everyone pulling away, and then lobbed the ball to the inside. He also ran to the side to pull away and contain. When he got here, Reid Holzman off the court
Emergency instructions were immediately issued, asking Dave DeBusschere to double-team Jerry Lucas to jointly defend the Lakers' No. 13.
This is a very risky tactical order, but it has to be done correctly by Reid Holzman, because the substitute insider replaced by the Lakers has almost no long-range attack ability. And the most important thing is
One thing is that at this juncture, ordinary substitute insiders cannot display half of their usual strength. The pressure and responsibility are not something ordinary players can bear. Even stars will be extremely uncomfortable and uncomfortable, let alone bench substitutes.
?
And... Reed Holzman saw a spirit and belief in the eyes of No. 13, which is something that ordinary No. 13 does not have. As a famous coach, how could he not understand what this means?
?So after a little thought, I made this defensive tactical arrangement with a wave of my hand.
Double team inside and joint defense in the low post.
After Jerry Lucas saw this tactical instruction, although he was a little unhappy, he also knew very well that he could not stop the explosive "Wilt Chamberlain" at the moment. Therefore, he had to rely on the strength of his teammates to jointly block it.
opponent.
In the last few minutes of winning the championship, no method is too much.
Because after a few years, people will only remember the winner, and they will not mind at all the specific methods used by the winner. Just look at Bill Russell and Chamberlain. Most fans in later generations think that the former dominated
The latter, who didn’t know that it was actually the former’s team that worked together to “group.” In one-on-one competition, the former almost never defeated the latter. Another example is in football, Maradona’s “Hand of God”
", is obviously a foul move, but what? In later generations, it became his capital and bargaining chip to brag and be admired by everyone. In the real society, there are too many examples of this, almost countless, so how can people "not be utilitarian"
"The loser is the king, the loser is the bandit"?
Just because of the winner, everything will be diluted or even beautified. In this environment, what would you do if it were you? How would you choose? So soon, Jerry Lucas figured it out,
He "joined forces" with Dave DeBusschere to guard the "Goliath" of the Lakers.
Passing the ball? Maybe it's the right thing to do normally, but now... Tang Qian isn't going to do it.
Because in the environment of G7 in the finals, if you rely on the bench to play key shots, the success rate can be imagined. Even if it is open, you may shoot "three no-sticks". The expectation and pressure are enough to overwhelm anyone.
A player with an average heart. So why is it said that the finals is the "ultimate stage for superstars"? It is such a high-pressure game. If you can still maintain your performance, your legend and strength will be instantly recognized by everyone.
At this point, the "future" Chicago No. 23 will be the strongest.
No one can surpass him, no one can beat him.
"Wilt chose to play hard by himself. He didn't pass the ball. He had to do it by himself!" Under Chick Hearn's explanation, the entire audience became attentive and cheered loudly.
It’s really “all the eyes” and “thousands of calls”.
But fans may not know that such intense cheering will actually have a certain psychological impact on the home players. After all, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment, and the pressure will increase exponentially.
This is the first time that Tang Qian has had this kind of "key attack" opportunity. Otherwise, with his status as the Lakers in the original time and space, he would be rotated one after another. I am afraid that he will not be able to come after 678. Therefore, at this moment
, is both an opportunity and a challenge, and it is also an extremely precious wealth of experience.
Tang Qian glanced at his teammates, took a breath, and made up his mind.
I want to do it myself.
I want to deal with my opponent with my own hands.
I want to personally save the Los Angeles Lakers.
If you are not really at this point in time, you have no idea what it feels like.
It was as if... the air on the court had become thicker, making it difficult to move and breathe.
But with the blessing of "fury", Tang Qian's heart became violent and he began to eat by himself.
"Wilt! You can't score this goal again!"
"Wilt! Do you think you can defeat the two of us? Dream on!"
Jerry Lucas and Dave DeBusschere opened their mouths when they saw Lakers No. 13 dribbling forward.
But on the basketball court, you can still see the truth behind your hands.
Talking is just a help.
You are awesome, you have to use your mouth to make loud noises, otherwise it is not much different from a wild dog farting, just the same.
A few seconds later, Tang Qian scored one of the best goals of the series.
After a hard attack from behind, he hit someone hard and dunked hard.
With a "bang" sound, even Jerry Lucas and Dave DeBusschere tried their best to block the offensive ball. Instead, it was broken open by No. 13 with great force, and they both kept retreating.
.
"Wilt~Chamberlain~~~Our Big Dipper is shining brightly tonight!!!"
Chick Hearn extended his voice and explained the words, which immediately spread throughout every inch of the Great Western Forum Arena.
PS: This is a big chapter, Xiao Zi will not cut the development, thank you all for your support~ I feel that Xiao Zi’s foreshadowing and essence of this story have been written in place, and I feel relieved~ With this "advanced"
"Experience", what will Tang Qian's future be like? Please wait and see~ It will only be more exciting in the future~
