(Read the full text of the Reading House without pop-up windows)
After the halftime break, the players from both sides walked out of the locker room again. When the Jazz players appeared, thunder-like shouts sounded from the Energy Center Stadium:
"Get San Francisco out of here!"
"Deron, mvp!Deron, mvp!Deron, mvp!"
"The Jazz will win! Heading towards the finals!"
Chamberlain kept rubbing his wrists. After he appeared, he did not sit back on the bench, but instead trotted on the side of the court. Seeing this scene, some fans changed their faces. They understood what this meant, Chamberlain was going to play.
However, Chamberlain's sluggish performance in the first half comforted them, and these people also comforted themselves in their hearts: "It's okay, although this guy is very powerful, his wrist is injured. I'm afraid that it's impossible for this guy to pick up a hot dog now, let alone layups on Oku and Boozer's heads?"
Another thing that makes Jazz fans feel at ease is that Billups did not play. In their eyes, Billups scored 11 points in just 14 minutes today, with 7 assists and 2 steals, which is much more terrifying than Chamberlain who scored only 5 points.
Louis still manipulated the Warriors' point guard. In order to cooperate with him, West came on the field to fight. Although these two men were not very high at altitude, they were very positive in defense. Although it was impossible to completely limit the Jazz's outside line, they were enough to stop them.
Deron still went to crush Louis. In the midfield, Old Nelson gave advice to Louis. The latter did not go up and contact him physically, but followed him slowly. If Deron wanted to shoot, it would interfere with him. If he wanted to pass the ball, then let him pass the ball.
Although this is indeed a good way to deal with Deron, Deron, who is qualified to compete for the new generation of super point guards, will not be locked up like this. He slowly entered the free throw line and suddenly turned around and hit Louis. He took advantage of this reaction force to jump shot and hit again.
After the basketball fell into the basketball, Deron stepped back and trotted while signaling. The fans in the Energy Center Stadium also cooperated to make a call like "mvp" and "first point guard". Billups curled his lips.
Chamberlain served the ball to Louis, and Louis seemed to be an arrow from the string, rushing forward with lightning speed. West, Chamberlain, Evans, Jackson, one of them was counted and ran very fast.
Seeing this, Sloan immediately stood up and shouted loudly: "Press up, disrupt their rhythm, don't let them run!"
The experienced coach saw the old Nelson's plan from Louis' command. This old guy wanted to play the running and bomb tactics. He had never used it in the five games of the playoffs. It was his best running and bomb tactics!
The Jazz, who was used to the rhythmic and organized attack of the Warriors, was immediately caught off guard. Louis attacked very quickly. Although he was delayed by Kirilenko after he arrived in the frontcourt, he immediately passed the ball to West.
After getting the ball, West also rushed into the three-point line at a fast speed, broke into the penalty area and turned around and made Oku and Boozer nervous, he suddenly passed the ball to Chamberlain who was **** from the middle.
Chamberlain hit Huanglong straight, and after getting the ball, he slapped the ball to the ground and rushed to the basket, raising his hand and fiddle. This time Boozer and Oku jumped up without being deceived, but this time Chamberlain jumped directly. They watched the ball fall into the basketball, and it was too late to think of jumping.
In the shooting, Chamberlain subconsciously shook his wrist. Now the cells of the wounded skin on his wrist have begun to regenerate, which stimulated the nerves on the surface of the skin to produce burning and a slight pain. Although the pain is not very severe, it is necessary to fight against professional opponents like Boozer and Oku. The pain has been amplified dozens of times, which is enough to affect his feel.
Although the shot just now was actually a bit off, it was just that he was tall and had a long wingspan, so he avoided the ball popping out.
Boozer and Oku obviously discovered this. The two were energetic and attacked Chamberlain at the same time. When they faced Chamberlain head-on, Oku tried his best to avoid meeting him in the inside. On the contrary, he took the initiative to ask for the ball in the inside, and after getting the ball, he raised his arms high to make a hook gesture.
Chamberlain took a step back and stuck Oku's leg with his knee. The Turkish white shark felt very uncomfortable when he was stuck. He swayed left and right and jumped up blindly to attack. Chamberlain turned around and stuck Oku. The basketball hit the inside of the ring and bounced out, and he easily snatched it off.
This time Deron had experience and was the first to get Louis stuck. However, Chamberlain did not look at the latter, but passed the ball to West.
After getting the ball, West started charging at the fastest speed. Korver, who came on as a substitute, struggled to chase. He was really not suitable to defend a powerful fighter like West. But outside defense expert Brewer came off the court to rest again.
It was also guessed that Old Nelson had replaced West. In terms of military use, Old Nelson beat Sloan, although the latter was also an unquestionable famous coach.
West's fast break guided the Warriors' team to speed up, and Chamberlain responded at a high position. When West was entangled by Oku and Koval who were returning to defense, he passed the ball to Chamberlain who was high position.
After Chamberlain got the ball, his feet rose up and his body's center of gravity quickly dropped and rose again. Oku subconsciously rushed to make up for defense. Chamberlain flicked his shot without jumping shot and drove the ball to the inside. Boozer came up from the other side to double-team. Chamberlain twisted his waist and shook his hand and threw the ball towards the rebound, turned around and bypassed Boozer's defense, roaring into the penalty area like a windmill.
He stood in the penalty area with one kick, Chamberlain flew up like a cannon and then flew up. The basketball bumped the rebound and rebounded back. He just reached out and grabbed the ball, pulled his hands behind his head, shouted and waved his arms, like a worker waving a bronze hammer, smashing the ball into the ring vigorously.
Chamberlain scored four points and two rebounds as soon as he came on the court. The Jazz's finally gained lead disappeared, which made the Energy Center stadium silent, but there were still people cheering. These people were naturally the Warriors fans, including the son of the street painter, holding up Chamberlain's paintings and cheering excitedly.
Jazz fans around him stared at the Warriors' fans angrily. The latter didn't care and still cheered on his own. Chamberlain's appearance not only helped the Warriors complete the points chase, but also strengthened the fans' confidence that as long as Chamberlain came on the court, their team could win.
Far from the other side of the Pacific Ocean, countless Chinese fans were cheering in front of the TV. Chamberlain is now their own person, and he is also responsible for the heavy responsibility of Everbright Chinese basketball at the Olympics. Their eyes have been following Chamberlain.
Deron took a few deep breaths to calm himself as much as possible. Kirilenko played the role of leading the boss at this time. He shouted in unskilled English: "Brothers, let's beat the San Francisco bastard back. The wrist of the damn yellow man is almost broken. Don't be deceived by his illusion, attack, attack, attack!"
Seeing the hot atmosphere on the court, Billups wanted to ask for a fight, but he knew that this was not the time. Old Nelson was waiting for an opportunity to wait for a chance to kill the Jazz, and he was the one responsible for launching the fatal blow, so his mission is still to accumulate strength on the bench.
Chamberlain's return stabilized the Warriors' position. Jackson used a tough defense to limit Kirirenko's attack. He provoked: "Soviet devils, aren't you calling happily? Don't you have to fight super-z, do you have the will to put one on my head first? Well, can you do it?"
Kirirenko made two steps to pass the ball to Deron on the outside. Deron aimed a back against Louis. Oku came to the high position, and Deron passed the ball out.
The ball in his hand was thrown out, and West, who had been following Korver, suddenly pounced on him like a vicious dog. West flew up and pushed the ball away from Deron's planned sliding trajectory. Jackson came up and grabbed the ball, and whistled and drove forward.
The Jazz hurriedly defended, Jackson was not fast, and Deron quickly entangled him, but Louis was faster. He ran away and went around the two of them to the frontcourt as soon as possible. Jackson passed the ball, and Kirilianko rushed to chase him, interfering with Louis on the wing.
At this time, Louis stomped his feet and jumped up. Seeing Kirirenko following him and jumped up. If he insisted on making a move, he would definitely be blocked. If it was too late to pass the ball, at that moment, Louis suddenly remembered the video of the Iverson offensive that he had carefully studied in middle school. One of the moves he had fascinated and practiced many times in private, but he had never used it in a formal game because this move was too difficult.
There was no other way to go at this time, and Louis gritted his teeth and directly released his ultimate move.
In the air, Louis leaned against Kirirenko, who was jumping up, and he grabbed the ball with his right hand and threw it gently.
Kirirenko waved his hand to block the ball, but he didn't know that the ball flew in the air and appeared on the side of it first, pulling it back. At this time, Kirirenko's attention was on the position of the ball. Louis twisted his waist and pulled the distance between the two of them. He threw the ball again. At this time, his body had begun to decline and fell to the ground in a second.
The ball fell into the ring!
Kirilenko looked at Louis blankly, as if he had never known this thin black boy before.
Louis couldn't help but cheer, and Chamberlain was even more excited. He rushed up and picked him up, shouting: "Hey, boy, are you possessed?"
This is exactly the self-received high throw shot that Iverson used in the All-Star Game. Since watching that video in middle school, Louis has been deeply shocked by him and has been practicing privately, but he did not expect that he would actually interpret this move in the playoffs today.
