Chapter 148 The Last Moment
"Dallas Sports Channel Today's Express: The first rookie who scored more than 30 points in a single game appeared today. What everyone didn't expect was that this rookie was not the new supersonic boss Kevin Durant, but the Philadelphia 76ers. The Chinese forward selected with the 12th overall pick in the round, Qian Ning! Please see the highlights of Chan Ning's game against the Mavericks today."
Before the game was over, the Dallas Sports Channel couldn't wait to edit Channing's game highlights and broadcast them on TV. It is indeed the favorite team and city of international players.
Countless Dallas Mavericks basketball fans are sitting in front of the TV at the moment, getting to know this rookie from China through fast breaks and unsolvable jump shots.
"My God, with a height of 2 meters, he can attack with the ball like a small forward, and has such terrifying physical fitness. If such a player can come to us in Dallas, how wonderful it would be!"
This is the voice of countless Mavericks fans. They have been convinced by Channing and have become fans of Channing. They are even fantasizing about the scene where Channing can join hands with Dirk one day.
Far away in Cleveland, James was lying on the bed with a mobile phone in his hand. Looking at Channing, who had lived up to his expectations and growing up quickly, and looking at his teammates, James was in tears.
"Trade Channing, or trade me!"
James roared into his phone, an ultimatum to the Cavaliers front office.
"It only took five games to achieve 30 points in a single game. It seems that my shots are still not enough!"
Kevin Durant raised his head to the sky and shouted loudly. He has always regarded Oden as the only challenge in this draft, but unexpectedly, the little-known Channing took the lead first. What a shame!
"Swipe!"
Durant continued to sweat profusely in the training hall, hitting hollow three-pointers one by one.
"One day, I will use this unsolvable three-pointer to declare death to the world!"
Returning to the game, with the final half minute remaining in the game, the Philadelphia 76ers trailed by two points and the Mavericks had the offensive ball.
Cheeks did not let the players use foul tactics, because the Mavericks' free throws have always been very stable, and there is enough time, let's see if the opponent's attack can succeed this time.
Fighting against the underdog 76ers in the East until the last moment was still tied, which made the Mavericks players feel angry, especially in the second half. on the Mavericks disrupted the ball movement.
Although Avery Johnson used countermeasures such as Josh Howard to do more off-ball screens and Dampier to cut the basket to attract defense, these tricks did not work every time. In the NBA basketball in the 2007-2008 season, The importance of three-point shooting and shooting ability is not fully understood. Every team has several rough guys who can hardly attack. As long as the defense uses a partial empty strategy, it is very likely to destroy many The team's offensive tactics.
Especially in the starting lineup of the Mavericks, Kidd, Josh Howard, and Dampier are all people who shoot and watch the sky, so the more anxious the moment is, the more they unconsciously hand the ball to Nowitzki and let the star come. Single-handedly solving problems is often the safest answer.
Nowitzki felt very hot tonight. Facing Channing's single defense all the way, the German driver scored 34 points with nearly 37% shooting, which was the second highest score in the game after Channing's [-] points. Although the driver's physical strength is also running low, Nowitzki always takes the responsibility without hesitation when the critical moment comes.
Channing's stamina gauge was even more empty, almost bottoming out. Cheeks let him play the entire second half. His playing time of nearly 43 minutes has already set a personal playing time record. He has to attack with the ball, protect the rebounds, help defend at any time, and actively score points on the fast break from time to time. Chan Ning is already panting and sweating profusely.
Although physically exhausted, Channing's heart was always on fire. This was the first time he scored such a high score, and he tasted the unstoppable pleasure of a superstar. Although the Mavericks' high-pressure defense in the second half Reduced Channing's shooting percentage, but he still has a good scoring efficiency. He has led the team to fight all night, and Channing would rather not fall at the last moment.
"Defend this round!"
"Victory is ours!"
Channing raised his arms and shouted, which boosted the morale of the players, especially the rookie center Smith.
Smith almost replaced Dalembert's playing time in the second half. With his enthusiasm and quick mobility, he did his job very well. Therefore, he also won Cheeks' trust for the first time, and he was able to play at critical moments. Stay on the field.
This is great news for Smith, who rarely got playing time before. He is determined to hug Channing's thigh tightly, actively cooperate with Channing, and strive to defend this round.
"This kid's leadership is really good!"
Iguodala looked at Channing, who was trying to mobilize the enthusiasm of his teammates, and thought of himself. He is a relatively restrained player on the court, who likes to lead by example, but rarely uses words and encouraging actions to try to motivate his teammates. , From this point of view, Channing is indeed more suitable to be the boss than Iguodala. At least after these two sentences, Iguodala obviously felt that the spirits of the five people present were all lifted.
The Mavericks throw the ball, Kidd holds the ball at the top of the arc and looks at Nowitzki.
At the critical moment, Channing once again resorted to the top-down defensive method that he used many times in the first quarter. Nowitzki is 2 meters tall, which is much taller than Channing. The reason why the shooting percentage is super high at the position is that few power forwards can restrain Nowitzki in height, and Channing can't do it either, so he actively strengthens the defense of the bottom plate, trying to destroy the opponent's body balance.
In the first quarter, Channing's trick was tried and tested, but at the critical moment, Nowitzki was not relentless.
Height and weight are better than Channing in all respects. Nowitzki moved to the back with all his strength, and then quickly moved a small step forward. In an instant, Kidd's pass was in place. These two old guys have cooperated for many years, and the cooperation is very good. tacit agreement.
Seeing that Nowitzki successfully received the ball and turned to face-up, Channing felt a thump in his heart. His strong top-and-down defense method is only effective for post-up jumpers. Once Nowitzki faces up to attack, Channing will not Dare to defend close again, because Nowitzki is also a hidden ball-handling breakthrough master, with soft and delicate ball-handling skills, coupled with tonnage and shoulder width, Nowitzki can easily carry Channing to complete the layup .
