Chapter 55 The Veteran's Roar
Bruce looked at the side of the Warriors with a tangled expression. Although everyone lowered their heads and remained silent, he still remained patient for this team that he placed great expectations on!
"PJ's tactical changes may be a bit problematic. After O'Neal exploded his energy, he should try his best to defend other players, not at the cost of the entire striker!!" Brad Pitt understands Bruce's mood very well After watching the game for many years, he still knows a little about the tactics used on the basketball court!
Bruce looked at the serious Brad Pitt next to him in surprise. He originally thought that the big star would pay attention to the NBA only when he was a little leisurely, but who would have thought that after Brad Pitt said these words, , extremely surprised by his seniority!
"Yes! Brad!" Bruce nodded in agreement. Even a layman like him could see the problems with this tactic, but he still couldn't understand why Carlesimo made such a response!
"Sorry! It was my tactical arrangement that ruined the game in the first quarter!" As early as the second half of the first quarter, Carlesimo discovered the confusion, but after all, he could not put the players His already somewhat confused brain was pulled back, and after the first quarter was over, he apologized to these players with some guilt!
"Next, I will replace you and let you calm down a bit, sorry! It was my mistake that caused all this!" Carlesimo comforted the main players for a while with a guilty expression, and then looked at those faces Show eager substitutes!
"Chauncey, Dirk, Dell, Donyell!" Carlesimo called out the names of several people in turn. When he saw Foyle and Wallace, there was a trace of struggle on his face, and he still hesitated in the end He looked at Foyle and said, "Adonal, go!!"
Wallace looked at the happy Foyle in disappointment, and a hint of anger flashed in his heart for Carlesimo's arrangement!
In daily training, Wallace is basically the last player to leave the arena. Every extra training allows him to improve his ability a little bit. Now seeing Carlesimo's expression and arrangement, the anger in his heart And loss gradually filled the atrium!
Bruce has been paying attention to the expressions of the Warriors player and Carlesimo. When he heard Carlesimo's sincere apology, he finally showed a hint of relief on his face, but when he saw a disappointed and angry expression from the corner of his eyes When he saw Wallace, who suddenly realized it, his heart suddenly jumped.
"Damn it! What's wrong with Big Ben?" Bruce looked at the slumped Wallace with some concern, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious in his heart!
When the Warriors re-entered the game, Bruce instantly understood why Wallace looked like that!
The full bench lineup sent by the Warriors instantly brought a strange exclamation to the entire arena.
Even a layman who joins in the fun will be extremely surprised when he sees this lineup.
"Have the Warriors given up on this game?" This idea flashed in the hearts of every fan, and no fan regarded this substitution as correct!
"Are the Warriors so vulnerable? Could it be that they can't even last a quarter of a game? Are they so unprofessional?" The commentator kept exclaiming, In his opinion, this signal from the Warriors shocked him extremely. Even a bad team would not make such a move until the fourth quarter when they completely lost the chance to counterattack during the game. It was an act of surrender, and now the personnel adjustment made by the Warriors completely stunned him!
Listening to the questioning and mocking from the sidelines, Bruce rubbed his face feebly with an ugly expression on his face, and couldn't help but doubt himself!
The second quarter begins with the referee's whistle.
The players of the Warriors all showed a dignified and serious face. Everyone knew what kind of criticism their playing would bring, but they tried their best to become the heroes in this game!
Nowitzki, Billups, including veteran Dell Curry who has been fighting for many years, all showed a steadfast and strong fighting spirit!
Foyle's can't wait is gone, Donyell Marshall's spirit, and the moment he stepped on the court, only his face was dignified and worried!
Only the three of Dirk Nowitzki, facing the huge pressure, went forward and made their efforts bravely!
Billups brought the ball steadily to the frontcourt, seeing the chaos of the Warriors in the first quarter, he looked at his teammates' running positions very carefully!
When he saw Nowitzki and Curry actively running, a smile finally appeared on his face: "I'm not working alone!!"
Curry ran actively, and every run was just right to tear the Lakers' defense.
Billups was calmly cruising beyond the three-point line, looking at Fisher, who never rested in front of him, with an imperceptible envy flashing across his face, he quickly passed the basketball with his right hand and ran out of the three-point line Blank Curry!
Curry grabbed the ball and broke through to the inside. When he came near the free throw line, Glenn Rice, who was replaced by the Lakers, suddenly blocked his way.
With years of experience and understanding of tactics, Curry pushed the basketball in his hand to the right corner without even looking at it!
"Shhh!!"
A wonderful sound came from the loudspeaker on the basket, and the cameras arranged around the court instantly captured that immature but extremely courageous big guy!
"Beautiful!! This German kid really has a good touch!" The commentator was very surprised to see Nowitzki who made a three-pointer and ran to the backcourt silently. Plus!
There are not many big men in the NBA who can shoot three-pointers, but Xiang Xiang, a European who has only participated in a few games and has just entered the NBA, is very surprised by Nowitzki's strong adaptability!
"Nice job!" Bruce applauded vigorously when Nowitzki passed in front of him, and raised his right thumb!
"Bruce, I'm really envious of your good luck!" Brad Pitt watched the calm Nowitzki walk past him with a look of surprise. Although the game had just started, he unexpectedly I found that these rookies of the Warriors are extremely good!
Looking at Bruce beside him who finally showed a smile, Brad Pitt's curiosity about Bruce reached the extreme!
The deal after joining the Warriors, the low-key and mysterious owner of the film and television company, when the Warriors were fighting the league giants Rockets to the last moment, Brad Pitt deeply felt how wise Bruce's deal was!
And with the increasingly strong box office of "Slim Girl", he is even more curious about this young man!
"What envy!" Bruce looked at Brad Pitt with a smile, and said modestly: "I just want to rebuild this team!"
"No, no, no! Everything you do is perfect!" Brad Pitt strongly disagrees with Bruce's statement. In his opinion, the personnel structure of this Warriors team basically maintains a good competitiveness.
"Brad, you really don't need to do this!" Bruce said helplessly. Although he enjoyed the big star's words in his heart, he still hasn't been able to knead the Warriors into a competitive team!
When the two were talking, the Lakers once again opened the score with Glenn Rice's mid-range shot!
Then, in the first half of the second quarter, the entire Warriors seemed to glow with powerful energy.
Curry's three-pointer sharply tore the space of the Lakers. Whenever he got the ball, Kobe, who was marking him, tried his best to stick to it!
When the two teams fought to 6 and a half minutes into the second quarter, the Warriors relied on Curry's 6 points in a row and Nowitzki's three points, instantly narrowing the difference between the two teams to 45:35.
In just six and a half minutes, the Warriors narrowed the [-]-point difference to [-] points with the performance of a group of substitute players.
Nowitzki's shooting and Curry's old and strong fighting power completely ignited many fans who supported them, and the entire stadium once again had the voice of cheering for the Warriors.
"Good job!!" Bruce stood up a little excitedly, clapping his hands vigorously for his players.
Bruce, who was a little worried about the performance of these players, was a little surprised to cheer for these heroes from time to time after seeing the tremendous energy of these players!
"Ben! You replace Foyle!!" Carlesimo took a serious look at the ashamed Foyle. Although his performance on the court was quite satisfactory, his clumsy defense still made the Lakers The white center, who averaged only 4 points and 2 rebounds per game, scored four points and two rebounds!
After this group of substitutes played a wonderful game, Carlesimo, out of stability, removed Foyle after the referee's whistle and replaced him with an excited Wallace. The entire Warriors lineup remained the same. It's a bunch of substitutes!
On the Lakers side, under the adjustment of "Silver Fox" Del Harris, Fisher was replaced with Eddie Jones, who had a better defense, and Kobe played the role of point guard!
There was a hint of expectation in Bruce's eyes, staring closely at Wallace who clenched his fists.
In his previous life, this iron-blooded tough guy, relying on his height of just over two meters, used his tough defense to stifle the opponent's offense time and time again.
Although the current Wallace is still a little immature, but he is gradually showing his talent in defense!
The appearance of players from the two teams brought the fans who were caught up in singing and dancing back to their senses!
Kobe slowly brought the ball to the front court, and quickly handed the ball to Eddie Jones, who was one step inside the three-point line, faithfully fulfilling his duties as a point guard!
Curry stared closely at this star with outstanding offensive and defensive abilities. As a veteran who has played for many years, he already knew the horror of this player!
Eddie Jones stared closely at Curry in front of him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. He slapped the basketball quickly with his right hand, and his feet staggered violently. As Curry retreated subconsciously, the right hand holding the ball was extremely fast. He passed the ball from his crotch to his left hand, and then raised his hands high. After a standard shooting posture, the basketball drew an arc and "shua!" got into the basket!
"Eddie Jones!!!" The DJ yelled in an extremely provocative tone, igniting the enthusiasm of the fans a little bit.
Seeing such a scene, Bruce frowned helplessly. In his previous life, he didn't know much about this small forward who averaged 16 points per game last season.
This small forward who is still a quasi-star player, Bruce is impressed by his defensive blue collar when he was in the Heat!
It may also be the reason for the false fans of Bruce. Eddie Jones, as the tenth overall pick in 94, won the most valuable award in the "Rookie Challenge" in his rookie season with his tough defense and elegant style of play. players.
Afterwards, with a balanced offense and defense, he became an indispensable main player for the Lakers!
Billups took Wallace's pass, said something to him in a low voice, and then ran forward smoothly!
Curry ran extremely fast. Because of Carter, he didn't need to maintain his physical strength. In this limited time, he was still physically strong, and he kept running around the field with Eddie Jones !
When Curry ran along the sideline from the bottom corner, when he suddenly turned back and ran to the free throw line, Wallace, who was entangled with the Lakers center outside the penalty area, suddenly gave up the entanglement of the opponent and ran over very quickly.
Curry seemed to understand what Wallace was doing, and with his cover, he quickly ran out of the three-point line!
Seeing that Curry understood Wallace's intentions, Billups handed him the ball.
Curry glanced gratefully at Billups who ran to the other side to open up space for him, then turned around like a nimble cheetah, and ran very quickly into the penalty area!
With Curry on the ball and Wallace on the screen, Nowitzki scrambled to put Robert Horry high on the team's drills.
Eddie Jones, who was blocked by Wallace, was about to catch up quickly, and then saw Curry approaching frantically in his direction!
Relying on his own experience, Curry kept shaking his shoulders when he was approaching Eddie Jones. At the moment when the opponent's center of gravity shifted sideways, he strode past quickly and saw Wallace tightly holding the Lakers The center backed away, and then accelerated again. Two steps inside the free throw line, he stepped heavily on the floor with his right foot, held the basketball high in his right hand, and rushed towards the basket with great impact!
"boom!!!"
"God! What did I see? Is this still the guy in his 30s???" The commentator looked at the explosive dunk on the field in shock, thinking of Curry's age, coupled with the crazy roar now, he seemed to return Like the Hornets ten years ago, I once again appreciate the demeanor of the Hornets' Super Sixth Man!
There was a hint of excitement on Bruce's face. Seeing Curry's crazy roar, he had great admiration for this veteran who never gave up!
Curry was never one to be underestimated when training with the team, nor was he one of those guys who get a veteran's minimum salary and wait until he retires!
And this explosive dunk fully told everyone about the veteran's ability!
