NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 125 He's Just Clumsy

On November 11, local time, Atlanta, Phillips Arena.

The Eagles, who had just defeated the Clippers in the last game, played at home against the defeated Bobcats who failed to conquer Oklahoma City.

At the beginning of the first quarter, facing Horford, Chen Xiao hit the ball as soon as he caught it.Catch the ball on the left side, hit back, turn over the line and hook with the right hand.

Chen Xiao, who scored 2 goals in a row in the opening game, obviously felt good. When he caught the ball again, he could obviously feel that Horford behind him became a little nervous.

After confirming that his teammates had pulled away, Chen Xiao, who was on the left side of the basket, sank on his left back and leaned on Horford. After leaning, he immediately shook his shoulder towards the baseline, as if he was about to turn around and slip to the baseline in the next moment.

Seeing Chen Xiao's coherent back turning and preparing to move, Horford couldn't help being a little nervous after being beaten into two consecutively, and took a small step towards the inside line.

In the next second, Chen Xiao still went online.

I saw that Chen Xiao's left hand firmly separated the distance from the defender, he slapped the ball with his right hand toward the upper line, and took a big step with his left foot. In one step, he went from outside the paint to the center of the paint facing the basket.

Originally, Chen Xiao was thinking of tricking Horford with a step hook, and ended it easily with a step up and down layup.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiao had already turned around, the basket was in front of him, and Horford, who was confused by the shaking of his shoulders, reacted half a beat later. Even though Chen Xiao had already followed up with the ball and raised his hands high to try to interfere, but the inside face was far taller than himself. A slower defense may completely lead to the failure of this defense.

Chen Xiao, who came to the paint area, made coherent hook movements and hit near the basket.

This time, Chen Xiao was on the third floor, thinking that Horford would see the second floor, but he didn't expect that Horford was on the first floor.

The first quarter was Chen Xiao's showtime. Facing the excellent inside defender Horford, although Horford tried his best to influence Chen Xiao's body balance, he hit 4 hooks in a single quarter.

One of them faced the siege of Horford and Josh Smith. He raised the basketball high above the straight arms of the two and brought the essence of the hook to the extreme. It is high, not afraid of interference, and at the same time It can also maintain balance and exert force smoothly.

In the first quarter, the feeling was overwhelming, and whatever they wanted helped the team start smoothly. In the second quarter, the occasional Mu Shen, who was 5 of 3, stabilized the second quarter and successfully won the first half.

In the second half, a heavyweight came, Gordon, who scored 20 points in a single quarter, made Chen Xiao willing to give up the ball, you come and you come.Gordon, holding an AK47, frantically strafed the screaming eagles in the sky.

The Bobcats ended the game smoothly with 106:89, and there was no slight disturbance in the score.

There were quite a few episodes in the game.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Walker broke through Korver with the ball and made a crossover breakthrough into the inside drawbar to complete a layup and caused a foul by Korver.

In a classic Walker-style offense, Korver, who was overwhelmed in this defensive round, barely kept up with Walker's footsteps and sent a foul.

After the referee blew the whistle, Chen Xiao, who was looking for a chance to rebound in the penalty area, saw Korver raise his right hand at the same time, not to indicate my foul or my problem, but to raise his hand and talk to the bench. My coach said I was injured.

Foul dead ball, I saw Korver limping off the court following the Eagles staff.

Looking at Korver's limping, it can only be said that Korver's defensive attitude is still good. After all, it is courageous to forcefully follow Walker to change directions.

"Ankle terminator? Aha?" As a big man, the way Chen Xiao congratulated Walker was of course to brush his small crew-cut head kindly with his big palm-like hands.

Then came Gordon's 20-point performance, which broke out just after Korver left the field, but no one can connect these two events, right?

After all, Chen Xiao, who witnessed Gordon's fairy balls with his own eyes, didn't feel that Korver, who was weak in defense, could impose any restrictions on Gordon's cheating.

Surrounded by Smith and Teague dribbling at the top of the arc, how could Gordon, who twisted his waist in the air and forced a three-pointer and still hit it, be restricted by Korver.

The only one who may "restrict" Gordon in this game can only be the Eagles backup center slag.

A frontcourt ball, Gordon ran to the bottom corner and received a pass from Sessions. The two were just quarreling off the court. They were still teammates fighting side by side on the court. Facing the scum that was rushing towards him, Gordon seemed to have no understanding at all. Oh, very brave Gordon raised his feet in the air and floated a three-pointer.

After hitting the three-pointer, he fell back to where he was when he took off. Zha Zha has been clumsy since then. He has stretched out his hands, and he has turned around to watch the ball. His feet can still rush to Gordon's jumping position, and he twitches. Is it stretched forward?

Since it was the end of the third quarter, Chen Xiao was on the bench, so he couldn't see clearly from the audience. After the game was over, he looked for the video to watch it. After confirming it, he could only say that Gordon was lucky and passed away with death.

After watching the video with his teammates in the locker room, Chen Xiao, coach Dunlap and the hero Gordon went to the post-match press conference together.

After the routine question was over, Chen Xiao took the video recorder that intercepted that segment and showed it to the media reporters present.

"Look at this round, the action of the Eagles center Zha Pachulia, who can tell me if this is a normal defensive action."

Chen Xiao handed the video recorder to the reporters in the front row. Amidst the whispers, Holm, who was sitting in the front seat as a local media, also saw the video and felt a little uneasy.

After waiting for a while, Chen Xiao asked in a deep voice to many media reporters in the audience: "Is Markjato Holm of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution here?"

At this moment, Holm, who was sitting among the reporters and had just finished watching the video, felt that the media reporters beside him were all staring at him, and he stood up and raised his hands slightly, feeling like he was on his back, and said, "I'm here. "

"OK, I heard that you have unique insights into whether players are professional or not. I would like to ask, is Pachulia's behavior considered professional? He may ruin Ben's career." Chen Xiao looked angry. Shoot Holm.

After seeing this action, normal people will realize that the defensive person is probably doing it on purpose, and the action is very dangerous.And looking at the history of the league, there are more than one or two geniuses ruined because of stepping.

"Uh" Holm, who opened his tongue for two seconds and cleared his mind, replied, "I'm not Zaza himself, but I believe he didn't mean it. Ben is sitting here now, isn't he? Zaza just didn't control himself well." His body posture, after all, he is a big man, a little clumsy." The more Holm spoke, the more fluent and confident he became.

Hearing that Holm took Pachulia to represent the big man, Chen Xiaohuo started from his heart, and just about to open his mouth, Gordon, the person who heard this, couldn't help it anymore, picked up the microphone and angrily said: "Put these things away!" Tell the truth, I have been in the league for 9 years, and I have seen many dangerous moves, this move is a downright dangerous move! He wants to destroy everything, but it is not as he expected." After finishing speaking, he put down heavily microphone.

"Don't use Pachulia to represent our post players. Not everyone uses his feet to defend like him. Maybe this time it didn't produce the result he wanted, but me and Gordon will always keep an eye on him. Pachulia Ya, if you see this video, believe me, we will keep an eye on you." Filled with righteous indignation, Chen Xiao issued a warning to Pachulia.

"The Bobcats regard the health and safety of the players as the first criterion. We have collected the video, and then we will reflect it to the league.

Although there are currently no vicious results, we must recognize the dangers of these actions. Players are the greatest wealth of the NBA. If they are intentionally injured on the court, this is unacceptable to all basketball practitioners and fans. "Bobcats coach Dunlap solemnly expressed the attitude of the Bobcats.

The press conference ended in an uproar, and the reporters off the field looked excited, so there were many hot spots in this game, so they could report well.As for whether Pachulia did it on purpose, the reporters should not think it themselves, as long as the fans think it is not important, what is important is the traffic brought by the discussion.

……

Although the press conference seemed to be buzzing and lively, the protagonist on the 28th was obviously not about the Bobcats and Eagles on and off the court.

The Bobcats and the Eagles were just suspected stepping-ups, and were not actually injured, and even if anyone was injured, it was not as lively as the conflicts and fights on the court.

As a fan commented: "No one cares about the Owls now, everyone only cares about the Celtics and the Nets. If the Bobcats want to attract public opinion, then please fight on the court."

The game between the Celtics and the Nets started at 7:83 that night. In the end, the Celtics lost to the Nets 95:[-], but the result is not important, what matters is the process.

Tonight, the North Shore Garden Arena has changed from a basketball court to a brawl.

The conflict erupted with half a minute left in the second quarter when Garnett forced his way past Humphries of the Nets. Humphries hit Garnett in the jaw with an additional action while blocking the shot, and Garnett fell out of the game. outside.

The referee whistled and Humphries made a technical foul for excessive action.

Rondo, who was closest to the side, saw that Garnett was overturned and quit, and rushed up to grab Humphries' neck.When the madman Sprewell was in the Golden State Warriors, Calcimo, the head coach of the Golden State Warriors, might think of some not-so-good memories and feel suffocated.

Not to be outdone, Humphries pushed Rondo forward with both hands, and the two were so angry that they pushed, shoved and wrestled, and fell to the ground at the same time.

Garnett, who was a victim himself, immediately tried to pull Rondo away, trying to quell the fight between the two, but the two who were already above failed to persuade the fight to succeed.

Gerald Wallace, who has a deep connection with the Bobcats, also participated in the fight. He knew the past of Barkley, Bird, and Dr. J. Humans have also opened up a second battlefield, entangled with each other, and have no time to look around the first battlefield.

Afterwards, the referee James Capers reviewed the video and made a penalty. He finally determined that the choking Rondo was the initiator of the fight and expelled him directly from the field. Humphries overturned Garnett and scuffled Rondo at the same time. , Wallace Garnett opened up the second battlefield, and the three of them each received a technical foul. Since Humphries had already received a technical foul for the foul action just now, Wallace had already had one before, and the two also received a technical foul. were sent off at the same time.

For Rondo in this game, it can be said to be a big loss. He is facing an additional suspension from the league. At the same time, his record of 37 consecutive assists in double figures and Stockton ranking second in history has passed away.

The court is over, and there is still a complete stop off the court. Humphries exposed his wounds in a tweet and wrote, "Who knows where in Boston I can get a tetanus shot as soon as possible?"

Glider Terry said, you are a tough guy who pretends to be.
