I'm really strong in basketball

Chapter 119: Beat the Spurs at the buzzer!Chinese Derby!
"I don't want this damn curse!"

Liu He said in his heart.

Duncan deceived the hero.

The future he talked about, until Duncan was 38 years old, the hero did not wait, but was beaten by Duncan in his twilight years.

Immediately, Liu He looked at his senior seriously: "Tim, of course the future is mine. But now, I want it too!"

Duncan was stunned for a moment, then smiled even more happily. He showed Liu He his fist, and then said: "You are too greedy, but I like it. Since you want it, come and grab it!"

Game start.

Liu He used Thomas's cover to successfully get rid of Bowen, then ran past White Chocolate, and the two passed the ball hand in hand.

After passing the ball, White Chocolate blocked the pursuing Bowen.

Liu He seized this momentary opportunity, faced the "short" Parker, and shot.

Swish!
62: 66.

Liu He officially sounded the clarion call for counterattack.

But soon, Duncan hit Thomas hard and turned around and hit the hook.

Swish!
62: 68.

Just because you want it, doesn’t mean I have to give it to you.

If you have the ability, come and grab it!

Before turning back to defend, Duncan smiled at Liu Hemijuice.

Liu He: Where's Crawford?

Let this man stop his bad habit of laughing.

As the saying goes, girls who love to laugh will not be too bad luck.

Duncan, who loves to laugh, must be unlucky...

On the next possession, Hill called the pick-and-roll, creating a one-on-one with Duncan.

White Chocolate took Parker and passed behind Duncan. When Duncan stepped back, he bumped into Parker and the two fell into a pile.

The audience was amused.

Duncan, Parker, are you here to make fun of me?
Hill took the opportunity to hit a mid-range shot.

Swish!
64: 68.

In fact, there are quite a few famous scenes where Duncan was the backdrop.

Being detained, knocked down, and ejaculated in the face...

"Famous background boards" Paul George and Patrick Ewing did not have as many appearances as Duncan.

But as Iverson said: I will never shake a non-defensive opponent.

These famous scenes just prove Duncan's diligence, steadiness and stability.

George and Ewing burst into tears: That’s so good!
Looking back, Ginobili made a snake-like breakthrough, passed Nesterovich and scored a layup.

64: 70.

The Knicks launched a fierce offensive.

However, "Stone Buddha" Duncan was as immobile as a mountain, leading the Spurs to steadily block the opponent's offensive.

The two teams were entangled until the last minute of the game.

81: 88.

In the last minute, the Spurs led by 1 points, and the Knicks now only have the theoretical possibility of winning.

In reality, 99.9% are stable.

Duncan smiled again. Is this still unstable?
At this moment, the system responded.

[It is detected that the host's team is behind in the last minute of the game, and the champion's heart badge will be activated]

[Dynamic talents are increased by 5% until the end of the game. 】

Great, cheating mode is on.

In the sixth game of the new season, Liu He activated the [Champion’s Heart] badge for the first time.

In the first four games, the Knicks took the lead.

In Game [-], the Knicks fell too far behind and gave up the game a few minutes early.

Game start.

The Knicks attack.

Thomas came up to cover Liu He.

The Spurs have long guessed the Knicks' intentions. At the last moment, the Knicks must rely on Liu He.

Therefore, Bowen was well prepared, blocking his position in advance, bypassing Thomas, and continuing to entangle Liu He.

The cover failed.

However, Liu He pushed Bowen and started immediately.

Bowen was a little dazed: so fast!
Why does it feel like Liu He is a little faster than before?
Without any time to think, Bowen quickly chased after him.

However, at this time, Liu He had already received a pass from his teammate and pulled it up directly.

Bowen jumped hard and tried to block the shot, but it was too late.

The basketball flew over Bowen's fingertips, cut through the sky, and accurately penetrated into the basket.

Swish!
84: 88.

The Spurs attacked, and Duncan hit again from the low post, showing his solid offensive skills with "big basic skills".

Swish!
84: 90.

The Knicks attack.

Liu He received the baseline ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

The smart Pachulia did not drop down, but stood directly at the top of the arc, blocking Liuhe's position.

Liu He made a feint to change direction, shake Bowen away, reach Pachulia's side, and pull up directly.

Bowen frowned, he had another misunderstanding, Liu He jumped high and fast at the last moment.

Swish!
87: 90.

3 points, 3 points left.

Suddenly, the success rate was more than just theoretical.

Duncan's smile disappeared.

39 seconds left.

Ginobili broke through and entered the Knicks penalty area, causing Pachulia to foul.

Then he went to the free throw line and Ginobili made 2 of 1 free throws.

87: 91.

The Knicks attack.

Liu He continued to catch the ball and advanced by himself.

Bowen pressed Liu He throughout the game, trying to waste time.

Liu He passed the ball to find Pachulia in front, then ran past Bowen without the ball and quickly rushed forward.

At this time, Pachulia also passed the ball back.

Liu He pulled up and voted.

Swish!
90: 91.

Only 1 points away.

15 seconds left.

The Spurs served, the Knicks fouled without hesitation, White Chocolate hugged Parker, and Parker got two free throws.

Parker went to the free throw line and made the first free throw.

Swish!
90: 92.

The second penalty, bang!

The basketball bounced out of the frame.

Did not enter!

The San Antonio fans at the scene were disappointed.

The Spurs missed 4 of the last 2 free throws, otherwise the 4-point difference would have been stable.

It's a pity that the right to decide the outcome now belongs to the Knicks.

Thomas protected the rebound and the Knicks called a timeout immediately.

The final 5 seconds.

Nelson laid out tactics.

After returning from the timeout, the Knicks served from the frontcourt sideline.

Pachulia serves.

Thomas, Hill, Liu He, and White Chocolate all gathered at the top of the arc.

Popovich frowned: What is Old Nelson going to do?
What can't that madman do?
The referee handed the ball to Pachulia.

At this moment, Thomas, Hill, and Bechakli stood in a row, building a human wall for Liu He.

Liu He bypassed the wall, got rid of all defenders, and received Pachulia's pass.

Liu He picked it up and threw it.

At this moment, the entire Spurs home court was silent, and the eyes of more than 2 people at the scene looked at the basketball in unison.

The basketball flew across the sky.

The most beautiful voice in the world resounded.

Swish!
93: 92.

in!

Really got in!

Beep!
At the same time, the whistle sounded at the end of the game. Liu He scored 1 points in the last minute and beat the Spurs at the buzzer.

At this moment, all Spurs fans in the audience covered their foreheads in pain.

The Spurs players looked confused.

And all the Knicks rushed towards Liu He together, celebrating wildly around Liu He.

"Win! Win! We won!"

In the CCTV live broadcast room, director Zhang Weiping also shouted happily: "Win! Win! Liu He wins!"

After calling for a while, teacher Sun Zhengping said: "The day after tomorrow, we will also broadcast the game between the Knicks and the Rockets. This is also a game that fans have been looking forward to for a long time. Don't miss it!"

In this game, Liu He scored 33 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals.

Hill had 12 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Crawford had 14 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal.

Pachulia had 10 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists.

For the Spurs:
Duncan had 31 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks.

Ginobili had 19 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steal.

Parker had 15 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal.

A shocking battle between two devils.

The three-point devil defeated the flying devil and won another victory.

After the game, Duncan still gave Liu He a tight hug.

"Just think of me as giving you a chance!"

Duncan said.

"It's up to you whether you let it or not, can you let me go first, I can't breathe soon."

Liu He said with difficulty.

"Okay. Okay."

Duncan let go of his arms with a smirk.

This guy definitely did it on purpose, Liu He thought in his mind.

Although after the game, Duncan praised his junior to the sky: We used all the methods we could think of, but we still couldn't stop him, he is really too strong!
Faced with Duncan's praise, Liu He did not choose to exchange business praise, but said: "Beating a weak team like the Spurs does not make me feel excited."

The yin and yang tone can't be concealed.

Are the Spurs a weak team?

What a joke!
In the 00s, if there were only two strong teams in the NBA, they would be the Lakers and Spurs.

The Spurs with Duncan are favorites to win the championship every year, without exception.

So the Spurs are certainly not a weak team.

Thinking of this, the reporters at the scene instantly became excited, and they understood: Liu He is going to fire again!

Sure enough, Liu He said: "As we all know, I am a weak team brusher, and my true colors are revealed as soon as I hit a strong team. Tonight I brushed such good data, then the Spurs are naturally a weak team."

Liu He just repeated what Isiah Thomas said, and then slapped the guy in the face hard.

……

2004 11 Month 18 Day.

The Knicks came to the aerospace city of Houston after a day of rest.

The festival for Chinese fans has arrived.

Everyone has been looking forward to the Chinese Derby between Yao Ming and Liu He for a long time.

This summer, the Rockets sent Francis and Mobley to Orlando in exchange for league first-line guard Tracy McGrady.

Although McGrady led the Magic to win the No. [-] pick last season, his ability to lead the team has been questioned.But there is no doubt that he is still one of the best stars in the league right now.

At this point, the Rockets formed the MM combination.And because the OK group has just parted ways, fans have more expectations for the MM group, hoping that this new pair can become a new generation of OK group.

Yao Mai is of course very strong.

But after seeing the Rockets' starting lineup tonight, Liu He is full of confidence.

Fifth position: Yao Ming.

No. [-]: Maurice Taylor.

Number three: Jim Jackson.

No. [-]: Tracy McGrady.

Position [-]: Charlie Ward.

If you want to use playing cards to describe it, the Rockets at this time are a 2, an A, and three small cards 4, 5, and 6.

McGrady is 2.

Yao Ming in the third grade is A.

Rockets owner Alexander has made a lot of money in the past two years relying on Yao Ming.

But as soon as the offseason came, he pretended to be poor and picked up a bunch of rags to assist the Yao-Mai combination.

I still remember those years, every summer, every time the Rockets picked up a bargain, they would brag about it, like the championship puzzle, the third giant...

But as soon as the season started, the hearts of Rockets fans went cold.

Rockets fans are gradually becoming more and more disappointed with this deception year after year.

……

As the host, Yao Ming warmly entertained Liu He.

This summer, the two worked together to lead the Chinese men's basketball team to achieve a breakthrough and win medals in one fell swoop.

Yao Ming also experienced O'Neal's happiness.

With Liu He around, the opponent didn't dare to double-team Yao Ming. Yao Ming gained a space as wide as the Pacific Ocean under the basket, and he played so well.

But after leaving the national team, the two are rivals.

At 7:[-] that night, Toyota Center Arena.

After Liu He ran out of the players' tunnel, he saw that the entire stadium was surrounded by "Chinese billboards."

Unlike international metropolises like New York, although the Chinese market is also large, the market in the world is not small either.

In Houston, the Chinese market is unparalleled.

Alexander doesn't know how much money he made from Yao Ming.

By selecting Yao Ming as the number one pick, his value has increased countless times.

Liu He remembered again the exchange he had with Yao Ming when he was with the national team in the summer.

"Liu He, why did you think of applying for a deal?"

"Of course it's for personal development! The Lakers' situation is too complicated, and I really don't get many opportunities. If you have the opportunity in the future, you have to be decisive and don't hesitate!"

"But the Rockets selected me as the No. [-] pick. Isn't that bad?"

"You can play now, and the Rockets treat you as a treasure. When you can't play, think about your senior Olajuwon... He won two championships for the Rockets, but he was still abandoned. What do you think? What? The NBA is a business, don't worry about loyalty."

Yao Ming was thoughtful.

Liu He reminded again: "The only thing to note is that if you want to leave, leave, and if you don't leave, don't leave. Never make a promise and then break it. Such behavior is too cheap and will also hurt the fans. In addition, Everything is acceptable."

Seeing that Yao Ming was still hesitant, Liu He finally said: "Don't you want to taste what it's like to be a championship?"

……

At this time, the Knicks' starting lineup for tonight was also announced.

Position [-]: Chandler.

Position [-]: Thomas.

Number three: Liu He.

Position [-]: Hill.

Number one: white chocolate.

Chandler got the chance to start, and Nelson wanted to use Chandler to restrict Yao Ming.

However, subsequent games proved that Nelson thought too much and overestimated Chandler.

Yao Ming won the first possession for the Rockets.

As a tool man, Charlie Ward advanced to the frontcourt and handed the ball to McGrady.

McGrady stood at the top of the arc, grabbed the ball with one hand in his signature, leaned sideways on Hill, and suddenly started.

At this time, McGrady is still full of explosive power, and his official height is 203cm, which is actually close to 205cm, and his stride is particularly large.

"The fastest first step" took one step and passed Hill.

McGrady drove into the paint.

Liu He and Thomas retracted in time and flanked McGrady.

McGrady showed excellent vision, found space in the crowd, and stuffed the ball under the basket.

Maurice Taylor catches the ball for a layup.

Snapped!
As a result, he was slapped away by the 216cm giant Chandler.

Chandler was about to take off for the second time and collected the basketball.

The super giant Yao Ming on the side has already caught the basketball first.

Chandler quickly defended Yao Ming.

Yao Ming withstood Chandler, turned sideways, and hit a small hook.

Swish!
0: 2.

Chandler had absolutely nothing to do with Yao Ming.

In fact, in 2001, Yao Ming and Chandler had an intersection.

At that time, Yao Ming had never been exposed to the NBA and had no confidence in the NBA draft.

However, he met Chandler in the training camp and easily defeated Chandler, who was selected as the second overall pick at the time.

Yao Ming became confident at that time: "If he can be selected for the NBA, so can I!"

Speaking of which, Chandler is still Yao Ming's noble man.

Throughout their career, in 13 confrontations between the two, Yao Ming averaged 20 points, 8.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game, with a shooting percentage of 54.6%.

Chandler had 9.2 points, 9.5 rebounds and 0.9 blocks, shooting 46% from the field.

The data also proves that Chandler can't guard Yao Ming at all.

The Knicks attack.

White Chocolate advanced to the frontcourt and handed the ball to the boss Liu He first.

Liu He saw Hill eager to try, so he passed the ball.

Hill faced Tracy McGrady, a former teammate. After a short stop, he suddenly started, and he also made a step forward, reached the paint area, and made an emergency stop jumper.

Swish!
2: 2.

It turns out that classic cars can also drive on Germany's highways.

Coach Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines shook his head helplessly, McGrady's defense...

Thinking back to those days, when Tracy McGrady first entered the league, he also started out as a top defensive player.The third-year Tracy McGrady averaged 1.1 steals and an astonishing 1.9 blocks per game.

However, after arriving with the Magic, McGrady focused all his energy on the offensive end and became lazy on the defensive end.

Although Van Gundy strictly requires McGrady to defend well, defense is a habit. After a long period of laziness, it really cannot be improved in a day or two.

Looking at Hill who turned back to defend, McGrady's thoughts were somewhat complicated.

When you were with me, you lay in bed for 4 years.

Change to a newcomer, and you will have a second spring directly.

Damn ex!
The better Hill plays, the more uncomfortable McGrady becomes.

So in the next round, in order to express his dissatisfaction and resentment, McGrady directly attacked Hill.

Swish!
2: 4.

Hill, however, didn't understand McGrady's emotions at all, thinking that McGrady just wanted to fight with him.

Hill directly broke into the penalty area in the next round, attracted the opponent's double-team, and then made a pass to Chandler.

Chandler caught the ball and dunked.

boom!
4: 4.

As a result, the beginning of the game became a confrontation between McGrady and Hill.

Hill, who has been lying down for four years, is a little excited. He hasn't played like this for a long time.

Little did he know that the better he played, the more unhappy McGrady would be.

Every shot Hill made, every pass he made, every rebound he grabbed... was a knife stuck in McGrady's heart.

Damn it!Damn it!Damn it!

In the last few minutes of the first quarter, 21:22, the two teams were almost tied.

Nelson strictly followed the team doctor's instructions and replaced Hill with Crawford.

Other stars may still be a little dissatisfied. Hill, who has been lying down for four years, is a good boy who is an outlier in the NBA, but he has no dissatisfaction and obediently obeys the head coach's arrangements.

(O'Neal's parents are considered to be middle class in the United States, while Hill's parents are truly elite. His mother is Hillary's classmate. Hill has received elite education since he was a child and is a truly good child.)
After Crawford came on the stage, he continued Hill's fierce offensive.

Seeing that his teammates were in excellent condition, Liu He decisively sank to the bottom corner to create a better shooting space for his teammates.

Hill and Crawford were really good tonight. Their firepower could withstand Yao Mai.

In fact, the Rockets really have no offensive tactics.

Jeff Van Gundy's defensive skills are profound, but he is really not good at offense.

The Rockets' offensive tactics are: McGrady plays after Yao Ming plays, and Yao Ming plays after McGrady plays.

Van Gundy really regarded Yao Mai as OK.

But not everyone can succeed in the OK group.

What kind of physical strength does Kobe have? He can play a whole game and still defend well.

Not so with McGrady.

O'Neal was also very physically strong when he was young and could explode in every game.

But Yao Ming can't do it. Yao Ming is famous for his explosive performance in the last game, but he will definitely slump in the second game.

The end of the first half, 44:49.

Relying on Yao Mai's personal offensive ability, the Rockets led by 5 points at halftime.

But Nelson is not anxious at all. Compared to Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming, who are already playing hard, Liu He can almost be said to have not yet exerted his strength tonight.

After the third quarter, 69:74.

The Rockets still maintain the lead.

In the critical fourth quarter, Nelson made a move and sent a small lineup.

托马斯206cm、刘河205cm、希尔203cm、克劳福德196cm、白巧克力185cm。

The Rockets go first.

Charlie Ward saw that the Knicks had no big man who could interfere with Yao Ming, so he immediately lobbed the ball to Yao Ming.

However, Thomas decisively moved forward and destroyed the pass.

The Knicks took the opportunity to launch a defensive counterattack, White Chocolate assisted in the frontcourt, and Hill scored a layup.

71: 74.

The Rockets attack.

Ward is still determined to find Yao Ming.

This time, it took him several seconds to finally pass the ball to Yao Ming.

But the Knicks, who defended the zone, completed the double-teaming of Yao Ming in an instant.

The young Yao Ming did not have O'Neal's mature ability to break double teams, and was eventually attacked by Liu He and cut off the basketball in his hand.

The Knicks played defensive counterattack again, rushing forward like a tide.

On the other hand, the Rockets, with Yao Ming, will definitely not be able to outrun the Knicks.

The Knicks attack, playing more in the frontcourt and less in the frontcourt.

Hill, who had played a whole game tonight, showed his sophistication and politeness at this moment, passing the ball to Liu He.

Liu He received the ball and faced Jim Jackson, who was a bit shorter than him, soared into the air and dunked from behind.

boom!
73: 74.

The Knicks caught up with the score, and the two sides were only 1 point apart.

On the Rockets' side, McGrady took the shots himself, making a one-step pull-up jumper inside the three-point line.

Bang!

Unfortunately, Tracy McGrady's touch has also begun to decline.

Thomas was not as tall as Yao Ming at the basket, but he cleverly blocked Yao Ming and allowed Liu He to get the rebound.

Liu He started a fast break, took one step outside the three-point line and directly chased for a three-pointer.

Swish!
76: 74.

The Knicks launched a 7-0 attack wave and instantly overtook the score.

Beep!
Coach Jeff Van Gundy called a timeout and the Rockets were stopped.

Pause back.

McGrady did not take any willful shots on his own, but broke through and scored the ball, helping Yao Ming score 2 points.

76: 76.

The two teams are back on the same starting line.
