NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal: Chapter 1070 Fastest 50 wins for 3 consecutive years
At 5 minutes and 48 seconds in the first quarter, at 17:11, the Blazers led by 6 points and entered the official timeout!
Such a result made the Eagles a bit unacceptable. Originally they excitedly thought that tonight would give the Trail Blazers a two-game losing streak, but unexpectedly the development of the game was completely different from their expectations.
It's really a competition of personal ability!
The Blazers' tactics are simple and rough, relying on the personal abilities of Wang Zelin and Lillard. Lillard is now very accurate in breaking through the basket and shooting three shots from the outside after the pick-and-roll. One-on-one duels.
As we all know, once the Blazers No. 36 gets a one-on-one chance, in terms of his current state, no matter who the opponent is, the ending is doomed... he is destined to be easily crushed by him!
In addition, Batum and Button, who are back tonight, look pretty good.
Batum scored a chasing three-pointer and passed to Button for a mid-range shot. Wang Zelin hit a hook from the basket and scored 2+1. At 3 minutes and 25 seconds, the Blazers scored 8 points in a row and beat the Eagles. Stopped.
But this does not prevent the Blazers from continuing to expand the score. Until the official timeout, the Blazers have already led by 6 points.
After the official timeout came back, the Blazers replaced Batum and Button with Terry and Carter in the pit, and let Batum and Button rest. The remaining three positions remained unchanged, Lillard, Jokic, and Wang Zelin.
On the Hawks side, substitute small forward Taurean Prince replaced Kent Bazemore, who had a mediocre touch, and the center position changed from Howard to Mike Muscala, who is capable of three-pointers. The remaining three positions constant.
After the timeout, Millsap started the singles mode. Muscala, Prince, Hardaway II, and Schroeder opened up the space. Millsap scored 6 points in a row by relying on precise mid-range moves!
As the only All-Star player in the Eagles, Millsap performed quite well at the critical moment and evened the difference between the two sides in an instant.
At 10 minutes and 55 seconds into the first quarter, Millsap scored a three-pointer for Prince. The Eagles played a wave of climax during this period. At 29:27, the Eagles overtook the score for the first time tonight!
On the other hand, on the Trail Blazers side, Carter and Connett-Lee didn't feel good when they came up with a three-pointer. In the 5 minutes after the timeout, let the opponent score 18 points efficiently!
Coach Terry stood up decisively and asked for a timeout.
Fortunately, after returning from the timeout, Millsap went down to rest.
Millsap is strong, but he is already a veteran who is almost 32 years old. He is at the end of the peak of his personal ability. It is difficult to maintain an efficient explosion for a long time like he did when he was young.
In these four seasons with the Hawks, Millsap's average outing time in the regular season was basically maintained at about 33 minutes, which means that if he spends too long, he will be limited by his physical fitness and his offensive and defensive influence will decline.
In the last minute or so, the Eagles coach sent a rotation lineup of Howard, Michael Dunleavy, DeAndre Bembry, Malcolm Delaney and Chris Humphries.
For the Trail Blazers, Batum and Button re-entered the field, leading the mobile troops of Beverly, Harrell, and Yi Jianlian. They frequently played fast breaks and counterattacks on the field, occupying a certain advantage when playing against the opponent.
After the first quarter, the two sides battled to a 34 tie.
Although it failed to stabilize the lead, the team did not fall behind the Trail Blazers. This result has already satisfied the Eagles coach.
After the start of the second quarter, coach Terry replaced Yi Jianlian with Wang Zelin, and the other four remained unchanged.
For the Eagles, seeing that the Blazers No. 36 would return to the field, the head coach gritted his teeth after seeking advice from Paul Millsap and chose to let him continue to play.
No way, the deterrence of the guy on the opposite side is too terrifying. If there is no leader with enough weight to lead the team, once that guy starts to go crazy, the entire system of the Eagles is likely to be completely overwhelmed by him.
To win, both the Eagles and Paul Millsap will have to fight tonight!
The game started and the Eagles took the lead.
Millsap set a screen for Schroeder, and then turned the strong side to the weak side, with the purpose of forcing the defense to switch.
The strategy worked, and the defender in front of him became Beverly.
He thought he could easily kill Beverly, who is just over 1.8 meters tall, but he really admires your tenacity. Chengdu is stronger than Millsap expected.
As the No. 1 candidate for the Blazers' ultimate killer move, Beverly's defensive ability is unquestionable, especially his single defense ability that is as sticky as a dog's skin plaster, which is enough to make any player who is facing him feel extremely uncomfortable .
After trying to break through the lower frame twice, Millsap found that he couldn't break through. He wanted to pull out from the middle distance like in the first quarter.
But thinking that I just rested for a while, I am afraid that I no longer have the fiery feeling before, and the Eagles really want to win today, so Millsap dismissed this idea and chose a more stable style of play. The ball is passed back to Schroeder.
After Schroeder received the ball, he misplaced and hit Harrell. He also dared to fight hard. He dribbled the ball with his left and right hands alternately and accelerated directly!
However, Harrell was so stunned that Schroeder didn't even take a step forward.
Schroeder is a fast pick-and-roll point guard who prioritizes scoring. He is extremely explosive and has a powerful dribble attack. If he encounters an ordinary power forward, he can use his speed to easily pass his opponent.
But it is a pity that what Schroeder encountered today was the beast Harrell. While taking into account speed and explosiveness, under the training of the Trail Blazers coaching staff, his defensive awareness was also extremely outstanding, which made Schroeder stick to him.
Seeing that the breakthrough was not enough, Schroder changed to a step-back jumper. As long as it was in the middle distance, he felt that he was still somewhat sure.
After all, his mid-range crosshair is stronger than the three-point crosshair.
However, just as Schroder took off and was about to make a shot, Harrell waved his long arm to block it. Schroeder's body leaned back slightly, but he soon discovered that this angle was not enough to avoid the block.
"It's over!"
Schroeder only felt a gust of cool wind blowing, and the basketball was blown away vigorously.
As a beastly power forward, Harrell prefers to end with dunks on the offensive end, and his blocking on the defensive end is also very violent, can hit people very well, and is also very entertaining.
This is a born beast!
Fortunately, he has been trained to be obedient in the Trail Blazers.
After the basketball was slapped, Harrell immediately accelerated to chase the ball. In order to prevent the basketball from going out of bounds, Harrell dived and fell to the ground, holding the ball firmly under his body.
On the other side, all the Blazers immediately invested in the counterattack. Batum was entangled with Millsap, and a basketball shoe was trampled off.
Batum immediately bent down to pick up the shoes, just about to put them on, but found that there was a gap in the frontcourt.
To wear shoes or to take a chance?
For Batum, this isn't a multiple-choice question.
He simply threw the shoe out of the street and galloped to the front field with one bare foot.
On the Trail Blazers bench, McCaw looked at his teammates in bewilderment, because the knot that Batum recognized fell into the hands of McCaw...
Sitting on the bench and suddenly being hit by a shoe, this kind of thing may be difficult for many veterans to encounter once in their entire careers. As a result, McCaw has just joined the NBA for half a season. It can only be said This kid's luck is indeed extraordinary.
On the field, Harrell passed the ball to Wang Zelin, and then quickly improved to join the counterattack team.
At this time, Batum, who was running on the field with one bare foot, quickly came into view and found that Batum was rushing to the front. Wang Zelin threw the ball over decisively.
Come on, it's up to you!
Dunleavy also accurately found Batum wearing a shoe, and he, who was originally lying in front of Barton, rushed towards Batum.
However, after Batum received the pass, he was in danger, and even if he lost a shoe, he could not interrupt his shooting rhythm.
Standing still outside the three-point line, before Dunleavy's finger was sealed, Batum made a sudden shot!
Batum knew that if this chasing three-pointer was scored, he didn't need to think about it, the ball would definitely be extremely hot. He has foreseen in advance that he will lock in the wonderful picture of one of the top ten goals tomorrow.
"impossible."
Dunleavy prayed silently in his heart, but seeing Batum's resolute and confident eyes, his heart began to feel uneasy.
In the end, Batum raised the knife and hit a three-pointer in Deng Liwei's desperate eyes!
"Shua—!"
The crisp sound of piercing the net resounded throughout the audience.
"Nicholas~ Batum!!"
The home DJ roared wildly.
From Harrell's beast hat to Batum's barefoot shot through the Eagles' basket, the Blazers contributed an extremely exciting game scene as soon as the second quarter came up, which made the fans on the scene and in front of the TV excited. Cheers for that too.
The game continued, and the Eagles made a quick start in the backcourt, as if they wanted to grab one quickly while Batum was wearing his shoes.
At the beginning, things were exactly as they expected. Millsap made a long pass from the backcourt and directly found Dunleavy near the center circle. After Dunleavy dribbled to the three-point line, he was blocked by Barton. Howard cut to the basket at a 45-degree angle from the side.
So far, Howard has not scored a point. After receiving Dunleavy's pass, he only has the basket not far away in his eyes.
As long as he dunks the ball, he can break the scoring shortage.
Full of confidence, Howard reached the paint area after two dribbles, jumped up, held the ball in his right hand, and slammed it hard into the basket.
And at this time, Wang Zelin's supplementary defense arrived.
As soon as Howard jumped together, he was pushed down from the air by a big hand that fell from the sky, and he couldn't even take two steps back under the imbalance. He slammed and fell to the floor.
"Oh! The blood cap from the king!!" The Trail Blazers commentator shouted excitedly.
Beverly quickly picked up the ball that rolled to the side and started to play quickly.
Wang Zelin didn't care about the offense, and yelled at Howard who got up and wanted to defend: "Remember, this is my territory. I can satisfy you as much as you want to eat tonight!"
Howard stopped just a few steps back, because Beverly had already made a layup, and he looked back at Wang Zelin, speechless.
Even if Howard is unwilling to admit it, the cruel reality is already telling him that he and the Blazers No. 36 are no longer players at the same level. It is meaningless to refute at this time, and it will only make him appear weaker.
At 39:34, the Blazers led by 5 points.
Eagles attack.
Wang Zelin mentioned above the free throw line and emptied the basket directly.
His attention was on Millsap and Schroeder, his eyes staring ahead.
He yelled at his teammates: "You all cut off their passing lanes, I won't allow them to catch the ball."
"Yes, boss!"
Harrell and Beverly responded in unison.
"Give me the ball!"
As soon as they came up and were beaten 5:0 by the opponent, Millsap would never allow this momentum to continue. Someone must stand up for the Eagles to break the scoring shortage.
So, he yelled at Schroder, who was one step away from the top of the arc, for the ball.
As soon as he received the ball in the low post, Millsap immediately encountered Harrell's close defense and did not get room to shoot.
He used Beta first, then turned around immediately, took a step back to distance himself from Harrell, and jumped on the spot...
At this moment, a familiar big hand struck again.
"Snapped!"
It was Wang Zelin again. He showed a terrifying defense speed, rushed over immediately, and slapped the ball directly out of the right line.
"Yes! Another **** cap for the king!"
The Blazers commentator was full of enthusiasm again, and his impassioned voice aroused the adrenaline of the entire Rose Garden, making countless Blazers fans cheer.
"Old guy, who do you think you are? How dare you act presumptuously in my territory!"
Wang Zelin landed and yelled at Millsap.
"Wow..."
Breathing became heavy unconsciously, and Millsap felt the defensive pressure from Wang Zelin.
The Eagles organized an offense again.
Schroeder was holding the ball outside the top of the arc, and suddenly felt two cold eyes staring at him. Looking along the line of sight, he saw an extremely cold face.
Not only did he shudder.
"That guy doesn't have a three-pointer, he can't shoot against a breakthrough!" Wang Zelin pointed at Schroeder and shouted at Beverly.
"Got it, boss!"
Beverly responded loudly, and then looked at Schroeder with fiery eyes, as if looking at prey.
The Blazers adopted a man-to-man strategy for the other four points and strangled the Eagles players to death.
Seeing that his teammates hadn't run out of opportunities, Schroeder decided to come by himself. But in the face of Beverly's effective targeting, his shot finally missed the frame.
Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound, launched a one-stop counterattack, and finally completed a one-handed dunk.
At 41:34, the Blazers led by 7 points.
beep~~~
The situation on the court changed suddenly, and the head coach of the Eagles decisively requested a timeout when he realized that the balance of victory was constantly tilting towards the Blazers.
However, this timeout did not have any effect~www.mtlnovel.com~After the game restarted, the Eagles' offensive tactics ran into the Blazers' defense against Infinity, just like encountering a natural enemy, and the offensive end stumbled , except that Millsap can barely guarantee the offensive efficiency, the other points are all misfired.
After halftime, the point difference has been stretched to 21 points, which is almost equivalent to a death sentence for the Eagles.
The ending was as expected. After the Blazers set off a wave in the third quarter, the Eagles retreated in a row. After the three quarters, the point difference came to 35 points, and the game completely lost suspense.
At 131:105, the Trail Blazers finally beat their opponents by 26 points at home, becoming the first 50-win team in this game.
At the same time, this is also the fastest 50-win team in the league in a single season for three consecutive years!
Its dominance is evident.
