Chapter 49 Fighting Like a Man

The Spurs didn't believe that Zhang Chen would suddenly find his touch. David Robinson broke through from the bottom line to Duncan on the other side of the basket to complete the score.

In exchange, Zhang Chen hit a three-pointer again, and the Spurs players felt a chill in their hearts. Their hard work in the first half had turned into water. The Heat's No. 10 still shot decisively and accurately.

The Spurs did not know how to play this time, and the rest of the Heat felt okay today. They beat the Spurs 17:4 in the rest of the third quarter.

Leading by more than ten points by the Heat, the Spurs played very passively in the fourth quarter. The key is that the defensive problem on the outside line was not resolved, but the Heat choked the outside line to death.

No matter how threatening the "Twin Towers" are inside, there is nothing they can do about it. After all, the biggest advantage of the inside line is stability, not the explosive power of scoring. In the end, the Heat won the game 90:81, leading by a total score of 2:1.

It can be said that the Heat's overall lead has surprised many people. In the last round, Zhang Chen changed from the best rookie to the best rookie who has the potential to become a superstar. I didn't expect him to step on the road to superstar so soon. These three games In the game, he is definitely the core performance of a playoff team. Although his scoring methods are not comprehensive enough, his scoring ability is already comparable to this year's scoring champion Allen Iverson.

The result of the game was also surprising because of Zhang Chen's full firepower.

The fans in Miami are very happy. Many of them are not very professional in basketball, but they always think that the players can win. "Four of the starting five of our team won the league awards. Alonzo, Tim, Zhang, P-J, if Jamal hadn't been injured before, he should have won the award, and there is only one of them, we are much better than the Spurs, we will be the champion."

The Heat can win the match point if they win another game. The whole team is united. The Spurs are not doing so well now. They never thought that things would turn out like this. It's not that they didn't think of losing, but they really They didn't expect to lose like this. They also studied Zhang Chen before the game, but they didn't expect that Zhang Chen was completely different from the person they saw in the video. They didn't even know whether Zhang Chen had thrown the whole regular season. So many three-pointers in these three games.

This player's shooting rate on the three-point line is much more accurate than his two-point shooting. This is not normal. This kind of unconventional performance is logically impossible to repeat in a short time, but Zhang Chen is like this in all three games. When a team can't defend a certain player of the opponent, it is very demoralizing.

In the fourth game, the Spurs decided to give it a go, and Popovich decided to change.

Therefore, everyone was surprised to find that the Spurs, like the Knicks before, had a three-inner lineup, and the young power forward Malik Rose was put on the starting lineup. An insider.

When Zhang Chen received the ball, David Robinson appeared in front of him.

"It's unbelievable that the Spurs let Robinson defend Zhang Chen."

"Although Robinson is as fast as a small forward, he is a center after all, and he is 34 years old this year. It is impossible for him to keep up with young lads."

"He actually stuck it up. This... Zhang Chen accelerated past Robinson, but he didn't completely shake him off. He still opened his long arms behind Zhang Chen."

"The Spurs are very crowded inside, Zhang Chen can't get to the basket, he can only pass the ball."

"Mourning got the ball, but he was surrounded by people, the ball fell to the outside again, the consecutive passes did not present a good opportunity, Mashburn's shot missed, the Spurs defended successfully, and their today. The purpose is to prevent throwing but not bursting."

The Spurs changed their defensive strategy again, and Zhang Chen also felt trouble. Robinson came up to tell him not to shoot outside. There was a height gap of more than ten, and the opponent stood in front of him. He really couldn’t even see the basket clearly. .

Breaking through is definitely no problem. No matter how flexible Robinson is, he is not as flexible as an outside player like him, but there are two inside players on the other side in the penalty area. It is basically impossible to make a layup.

This kind of defense is to tell Zhang Chen to rush him, to rush him, the opponent is to guide Zhang Chen to rush in, and Duncan, who stays inside, has excellent defensive ability.

In the next attack, Zhang Chen wanted to take advantage of the fact that Robinson, who had just rushed to the basket and attacked, hadn't come back. As a result, Duncan stood in front of him and blocked him. Robinson returned to the inside of the Spurs. When he came up, he was still defending against the shot but not the burst, but he just changed to a big man, and Robinson, who was inside at this time, also had excellent defensive ability.

This is the defensive strategy of the Spurs in this game. They want to drive Zhang Chen to the inside line. Whether it is offense or defense, it will be resolved by the inside line.

"Heat boy, we will definitely not let you shoot outside in this game." As the leader of the team, he finally waited for a strong helper after passing the peak. Robinson did not want to continue the tragedy, but he made up his mind determination.

"It's a pity that your words are not the rules of the game. I will definitely beat you."

Zhang Chen moves laterally with the ball, he is indeed faster than his speed, but he runs around the three-point line to run a little longer than Robinson inside the three-point line, in this way, the opponent can also follow on him.

After making two turns and Mourning came up to block for him, Zhang Chen seized the opportunity to complete a three-point shot, but even so, he was almost touched by the opponent's long arm.

Although he completed the attack, he found that it was impossible, and it was too exhausting. The opponent could be Robinson and Duncan in turn, but he was alone, and with such a difficult shot, even if his shooting percentage was theoretically [-]% For the above, there will be some missed shots. If he misses the shot at a critical moment, the victory of the game will be far away from him.

Even with the effect of extending the three-point card, he can't bet on his luck on the court.

Facing the opponent's determination, he had to make a choice.

The weakness of the Spurs' defense can be seen, it depends on whether he dares to fight.

He is Zhang Chen, and he is standing on the pinnacle of the basketball world. If he dares not do it, he will look down on him. This kind of opportunity is not available to everyone. If he stands here, he will fight desperately , to fight like a man.

"Zhang Chen broke through David Robinson again, and he continued to speed up towards the basket. He seemed to want to dunk, but Duncan was obviously ready, and he gave Zhang Chen a big hat."

This insider is really difficult to deal with, Zhang Chen muttered to himself, he didn't want to go in and dunk, although it is good to be able to dunk, he intends to cause damage and cause local fouls, but unfortunately the inside players will not stick up like the outside players defending him , he took the initiative to find Duncan, obviously underestimating the other party's flexibility.

Because he was concerned about the Spurs' inside defense, he basically didn't go in the previous game, so he was not very familiar with confronting the two Spurs' insiders directly. .

The Spurs used Robinson to defend him, which gave him a chance to attack the opponent's inside line, and he must not be cowardly.

"Zhang Chen hit the inside of the Spurs again... Wonderful block, it's Duncan again, his performance inside is impeccable, Zhang Chen is a little anxious."

"The Spurs' defense against Zhang Chen is very targeted. This is what they need. The Heat need to find a solution, but Zhang Chen needs to calm down first."

"Zhang... Zhang... Zhang..." The fans of the Heat shouted loudly, holding up a cardboard supporting Zhang Chen, which moved him very much and strengthened his confidence.

"Come on, the best rookie, maybe the next one will get in." Duncan said badly.

"Okay, Mr. Yiqi." There was no fear in Zhang Chen's eyes.

"Zhang Chen still chose to break through. Pat Riley should replace him to calm down... It's Duncan again... The referee's whistle blew, this ball is a foul..."

"Let's look at the slow motion. Zhang Chen leaned on Duncan. This time Duncan didn't take off sufficiently. It was indeed a foul."

Having found the rhythm, Zhang Chen yelled "YES" heavily in his heart.

His eyes are full of fighting spirit. Since the Spurs want the insiders to decide the outcome of the game, he will knock down their "Twin Towers" and see what they do, and see if they dare to give him the opportunity to face the insiders directly. Chance.

The Spurs didn't care about his foul this time, it's just that Duncan was careless. How could an outside player enter the inside and be an opponent of an inside player.

Zhang Chen showed a hint of danger, and the time has come for him to be elated.

"It was Zhang Chen's breakthrough again, which again caused Duncan's foul. He was really too fast. If Duncan didn't step forward, it would definitely be a beautiful dunk."

After being hit again and again, even if you are knocked to the ground, you will immediately stand up and continue fighting.

He is not soft-boned, and he can't die after being beaten a few times.

Duncan was soon caught in a foul. He replaced Robinson and came to the outside, and Robinson was ready to face Zhang Chen's impact.

This time, he adapted quickly, and only flew the ball up for the first time without being blocked.

After feeling the difference between Robinson and Duncan, he still went in resolutely. Didn't the Spurs use defense to guide him in? He just showed them and wanted to kill them.

Robinson also paid consecutive fouls, and Zhang Chen got to the free throw line again and again.

Although the Heat are currently behind in the score, the Spurs are the first to fail. If Duncan and Robinson are beaten, they will instantly turn from a Finals team into a fish belly. This is what they decided they don’t want to see things.

Before the end of the third quarter, the Spurs had to make a choice.
