Chapter 118 The Entangled Opponent

McGrady punched cotton in the defense, and he quickly vented his grievances to the offense.

When Zhang Chen was defending close to the body again, he took a faster first step with extremely strong explosive power. With such an improvement, Zhang Chen could only barely keep up, and his movements slowed down a bit.

Tracy McGrady took advantage of the trend and felt the opponent jumping up from his side to interfere with his layup. There was a beautiful change of hands to pick the basket, and the basketball went into the basket.

"Beautiful, this ball is definitely a top five ball. I didn't expect McGrady and Zhang Chen to face each other, and there will be an exciting scene so soon."

"Looking forward to Zhang Chen's counterattack, there is nothing more exciting than the collision between the core players of the two teams."

There is nothing Zhang Chen can do about such a performance. In basketball, the offensive side is always the more active side.

Tracy McGrady played a handsome offense, only to feel that he was relieved, and his defense became stronger.

Zhang Chen pushed with his back again. For this move, McGrady could only grit his teeth and resist, but strength is not something that can be resisted by gritting his teeth. After just a few strokes, he was seated for three seconds. Area.

But what broke McGrady was that he was ready to be humiliated, but unexpectedly he was really humiliated. Zhang Chen stuffed the ball inside from his armpit, and Dampier dunked easily.

Why pass the ball? Now McGrady couldn't help it, "Zhang, don't you bother to fight me? Am I much worse than Vince?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Chen wondered.

McGrady said angrily: "Why do you pass the ball, you can do it yourself."

"Haha, there's no way, the opportunities for teammates are great." Zhang Chen said here, his tone changed, and he said a little gloomyly, "However, if you can push me to the point where I can't pass the ball, then I definitely won't pass the ball."

I've heard of people who are forced to pass and can't shoot, and it feels weird to be forced to shoot.

But after all, Zhang Chen became famous first, and McGrady took this remark as a contempt for him, and instantly became full of fighting spirit.

Seeing McGrady's fighting spirit, Zhang Chen was secretly happy. He likes to provoke his opponent and turn the game into a one-on-one competition, especially when the opponent is obsessed with one-on-one, but he can play normally.

But if the opponent really explodes and makes them lose the game, that would be bad.

Therefore, his defense has become more active, and he cannot let the opponent take away the victory in Oakland.

McGrady's singles ability is indeed very good, Zhang Chen is also difficult to restrain him, no wonder he has to stay in the Raptors to assist Carter, but even if he has a good success rate in singles, the team's offensive efficiency is not as good as the Warriors.

The goals of the two duels are not exactly the same. McGrady is to prove his ability, while Zhang Chen is to lead the team to victory.

"McGrady made a back attack posture. He tried it just now. This is not the way he is good at..."

"The ball was passed, and McGrady even passed the ball. Mike Miller suddenly ran back to the three-point line on McGrady's side, caught the ball and hit a three-pointer."

Looking at McGrady's sly smile after the assist, Zhang Chen also turned his head a few times. If he wanted to play more reasonably, he should have passed the ball a long time ago, instead of trying his best to play alone so many times. Like showing weakness, then there is only one reason for the opponent to do this, which is to prove that he can also pass the ball that allows his teammates to score comfortably.

So, what's the next step? Sure enough, the opponent still made moves. McGrady started a series of displays such as rushing to the frontcourt. No matter what his purpose was, after he showed his comprehensive ability, the Magic team The fighting power is stronger.

Zhang Chen also became excited. Comprehensiveness has always been his pride. Even if he encounters an opponent with stronger attack power or other stronger opponents, he can always limit the opponent with a more comprehensive ability and help the team win.

Unexpectedly, the new head of the Magic team who challenged him planned to defeat him in all directions.

What a high-spirited young man. Although the other party entered the NBA a year earlier than him, he is younger than him, because McGrady came to the NBA directly without entering college, and Zhang Chen was with Carter for a year. In addition, he became famous early. , At this time, there is a feeling of being challenged by a powerful junior.

Of course, the main reason is that McGrady's abilities in all aspects have reached a relatively outstanding level. When you meet your opponent, you will meet a good talent. How can you make people burn.

"Larry Hughes picked the basket after breaking through. The ball spun around the basket and fell down. What a pity...the ball was filled in. It was Zhang Chen. When did he rush over?"

"Zhang Chen got entangled with McGrady again. McGrady's ball was shot off. He expressed displeasure to the referee that he was fouled. The game was still going on. When he complained, Zhang Chen had already participated in the offense. gone."

"The referee blew the whistle, and McGrady was very aggrieved. It seemed to be saying that Ming and Zhang Chen had similar actions, so why did he call him a foul?"

Now that it has become an all-round contest, Zhang Chen will definitely use all means. His current strength is definitely at the level of the playoffs. McGrady’s disadvantage lies in physical confrontation. Sometimes his movements will be deformed when fighting against weak players. , this is still different from Zhang Chen who is used to high-intensity confrontation.

But he also has something better than Zhang Chen, that is, the rhythm and speed of frontal shots. Because Zhang Chen is used to confronting people, the speed of shots in sports warfare is not very fast, so he often has to take the initiative to find physical contact for this reason, otherwise When encountering a shot with height and bounce like McGrady, he will be easily disturbed.

Before the end of the first half, McGrady hit a long-range three-pointer. The score between the two sides was 53:50. The Warriors were able to lead by three points. In addition to Tracy McGrady, Mike Miller, Armstrong, and Pat Garrity are all good players in this area, and the scores were pulled closer after a few hits.

"I will continue to limit the opponent's first scoring point, McGrady, everyone work harder, don't underestimate the opponent, concentrate and win the game."

After winning against a strong team, Zhang Chen was worried that some guys would be too complacent. The season has just begun, and they still need to strive to win every game. They are a young team that has not yet fully integrated and is chasing after a strong team.

"Zhang, I will never let that kid shoot so easily in the second half." Larry Hughes did underestimate the opponent in the first half. He has height and quick shots. This is another kind of shot he encountered. type of player.

"Well, no matter how hard you hit him, he won't be able to keep up with you."

"Antoine, pay attention to protecting the rebound, you should be fine."

Jamison nodded. The Magic's inside line couldn't pose a threat to his offense. It can be said that he has an overall advantage. He thinks it is acceptable to strengthen the impact on the rebound.

"Well, boys, as long as you are tougher than your opponent, you will have a greater chance of winning." The head coach smiled with satisfaction. Coming to the Warriors to coach is easier than he imagined. The players have a strong will to win. Saved him a lot of effort.

Back on the court again, the Warriors players are full of confidence, and the Magic players are also full of momentum.

After fighting for a few rounds, Zhang Chen was surprised to find that McGrady played more reasonably, "Interesting." It seems that the opponent is not that kind of particularly stubborn person.

Zhang Chen didn't know that during the intermission, the head coach of the Magic, Doc Rivers, seriously asked McGrady to play more teamwork. The head coach said no.

As for which style of play is more helpful to the team, in a certain game, the beholder sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom.

"I will win." McGrady gritted his teeth and sent an assist, muttering to himself.

Zhang Chen played more resolutely at this time, which is also his consistent performance in the third quarter.

He didn't say any provocative words anymore, because there was no need to say anything, McGrady would make up his own brain, even better than what he said.

Zhang Chen guessed right. McGrady felt a little uncomfortable. When he wanted to single out, the opponent played teamwork. Now he was asked by the coach to play teamwork, and the opponent played singles again. He only had one feeling that this person was stronger than he imagined. hateful.

The key is that the other party didn't even say a word, as if he didn't care about him at all.

The core thought too much, and the Warriors gradually took control of the situation on the court, which made the head coach of the Magic very dissatisfied with his team's defense.

"Concentrate and handle the ball more quickly and decisively..."

"Tracey, playing as a team is not about hesitating. Don't hesitate when you have a chance."

McGrady's mood in this game is complicated. I feel that the opponent and the coach are changing at any time. However, this game is at the last moment. There is not much time to prove it. It belongs to the East and West. The next match will be a long time later. Now, he decided to empty his head and go all out.

"Side step jumper, McGrady's offense is very determined."

"Jamison hit the shot, and the Magic couldn't find a suitable player to guard him."

"McGrady's dry pull, his current choice is relatively simple, but the hit rate is not bad."

"Larry Hughes' drive drew a foul from the Magic, and he was really fast."

"McGrady's lateral pass is a very bold pass. Fortunately, his height allows him to pass the ball higher than the average pass."

"Zhang Chen is still pushing with his back. How should I put it, his choice is very practical."

The remaining time of the game came to 4 minutes. McGrady faced Zhang Chen's continuous crotch, and suddenly he pulled it up. This is also where he is difficult to defend. The combination of rhythm and speed, most players can do one, That's enough to do well in the NBA.

Even this kind of almost unsolvable shot will have a certain ability to resist after seeing it many times.

When McGrady jumped up, he realized that he had no ball in his hands.

"You're going to lose..." Zhang Chen blew past like a gust of wind, quickly advanced to the Magic's half court, stopped at the three-point line and made a decisive shot.

At 93:80, the Warriors extended their lead to 13 points.
