Chapter 233 Fighting for the Fans
boom!Swish!
Another steal followed by a fast break layup, scored by Devin Harris.

而现在的时间已经是第三节打到了9分15秒，比分更是84比96，尼克斯已经落后了12分。

"Shhhhhhh..." Seeing this goal and seeing how far behind their team was, the fans in New York booed wildly.It was still a good situation to chase points, but I didn't expect to be thrown away by the opponent all of a sudden.

And all of this is because of this chaotic war.

The Mavericks took out a posture of blocking and stealing the ball. To be honest, this is indeed stressful for professional players, but it is not unsolvable.After all, stealing the ball is a kind of gambling defense. If you can't break it, you will lose your defensive position.But the Mavericks don't care about this. Anyway, their defense is like that. Their real strength is offense.In other words, even if the opponent scores one, then he can hit it back. Therefore, the Mavericks have the capital to gamble.

In fact, this chaotic style of play is a natural reconciliation of the conflict between the characteristics of the players and the requirements of the head coach.Most of the Mavericks' players are guys who like to attack and shoot, but the little general requires defense, so they simply combined defense with offense, and they came up with such a method.

The oppressive and gambling-style defense messed up the scene, so that many of the Mavericks' chaotic masters were happy, and the players were indeed actively defending on the scene, and the effect seemed to be good.This method is also a magic weapon for the Mavericks to achieve their current results. Many teams were uncomfortable with their sudden arrival until the Mavericks met the Golden State Warriors who were more disruptive than them.

Originally, the opponent was playing chaotically. In fact, the Knicks can come steadily, but now they can't do this.The reason is very simple, because the Knicks were playing with the opponent's rhythm before, and they couldn't adjust at all for a while.

That is to say, the score that was originally achieved by learning from the opponent was pulled away because of this learning from the opponent.

Beep!Seeing this, Coach To was not calm anymore. This guy called a timeout, and judging from the time, it should be a substitution.And coach Toto did the same. He didn't continue to keep the main lineup on the field, and it was still a normal rotation.

Seeing that he was replaced, Lao Hu immediately understood the meaning of Coach Tuo.It's very simple, that's this game, the final result is not important, it doesn't matter if you lose, anyway, the opponent is the current number one in the regular season, and it has no impact on the Knicks' playoffs at all.Therefore, with a normal rotation lineup, normal distribution of physical strength, everyone can pass the ball steadily, then it will be fine, and there is no need to fight with them.

It seems that Thomas, who has been engaged in management for many years, is completely different from the "smiling assassin" when he was a player. He has become more practical, more calculating, and less passionate.

Since considering all aspects, this ball is here, so what should I do?

"Forget it! Anyway, I did my best. The team has played this part. Although we Lao Hu also have some responsibilities, but we did our best, didn't we! We did our best!..." Lao Hu sat on the bench and kept talking. Tell yourself, just do your best in this game.

The situation on the field changed again. The two sides had a tacit understanding and replaced the substitute lineup, but this time, the Mavericks' substitutes continued their chaotic style, and it was obvious that the Knicks' substitutes were not used to it.

"Hehe, this side is broken again, hey! Interesting, I lost another one over there, and I'm back, can I enter?... Oops! This whole thing is a mess, hehe..." Teacher Xu couldn't understand it. eyes.

"However, the Mavericks are very adaptable to the current situation. They can always score points in a chaotic situation. This is very interesting, while the Knicks can only score a few points occasionally. The current score has already Pulled away, and it seems that I really can't catch up." Yu Jia paid attention to the score, it was really hard to catch up.

"It's mainly immature and not stable enough. The Knicks are basically messing with you and me. Let's mess together, haha..." Teacher Xu is still talking about his own cold jokes.

Brien and Frazier, who were commentating on the spot, also saw this problem, but they could only be anxious at best. Brien even bluntly said that the Mavericks had already controlled the game.

And Cuban in the audience was very happy. This team is leading, no matter how they play, it is good to lead anyway, and they are leading more and more.Don't worry about what method I use, it doesn't break the law anyway, and the effect is good, so that's all.Therefore, Boss Ku was in a good mood. He could feel his chubby hand hitting Spike Lee on the face.Ah ha ha……

Needless to say, Director Li Da's face is very ugly now, but he also knows that there is a gap between the Knicks and his opponent, but the current situation still makes his old face burn.

However, the fans in New York haven't given up yet. Although the Knicks on the court were ravaged by their opponents, they have never given up. As long as the Knicks have a wonderful performance, even if it is only sporadic, they will cheer for joy.

But reality is reality, the NBA is very cruel, the third quarter was over very quickly, the score was 91 to 108, the Knicks fell behind by 17 points and entered the fourth quarter.

To be honest, this is a score that can be sentenced to death. I want to recover 17 points in a single quarter, and it is the fourth quarter. This kind of thing is probably one of the few in the history of the NBA.

In the Knicks locker room, Coach To was still yelling, but judging from the words coming out of his mouth, he didn't seem to be particularly anxious.

"Gentlemen! Where is your momentum? What about your offense? Defense? We must be more active, more active, we must not let the Dallasites continue to score wantonly in our stadium! This is our territory..."

It was still an empty shot of encouraging momentum. It seemed that Laotuo had basically given up the game, except for the fake big empty, there was no tactical arrangement at all.Well, although he didn't have too many tactical arrangements before.

"The third quarter is over, 17 points, the point difference is a bit big, Mr. Xu, what do you think about the fourth quarter of the match between the two sides?" Seeing the score and the match, Yu Jia directly showed Di Renjie's posture Come.

"Hehe... Looking at it now, the main problem for the Knicks is that they are following their opponents. They have always been in a rhythm that is relatively unfamiliar to them. Hehe, the main reason for this is that the Mavericks are really strong. Of course, Looking at it now, they are the strongest, but if they want to win against them, they have to play their own rhythm. Hehe, now that the Knicks haven’t played well, they are already on the edge of a cliff. If they can’t catch up immediately at the beginning of the fourth quarter score, then the next time will enter garbage time, hehe..."

Fortunately, Teacher Xu is not Yuan Fang, he still said the key to this game, but, I don't know if the Knicks can improve at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

After a short break, players from both sides returned to the floor, and the fourth quarter began!
Hu Lin and other Knicks main players, according to the regular rotation, sat firmly on the sidelines in the opening period of the fourth quarter.There is still a bench on the court, and so does the Mavericks, but the Mavericks' bench is more efficient.

"DE-FENCE! DE-FENCE! DE-FENCE!..." Although the Knicks' situation on the court is getting worse, the fans still haven't given up.They still cheer loudly when the team is defending, and intimidate opponents when attacking, but after all, they are not players on the field and cannot directly go up to help the Knicks.

The situation of the game further deteriorated, the Knicks' substitutes did not play their due level, and the Mavericks' substitutes were the Knicks who were chaotic and accelerated the attack.

Snapped!The Knicks not only have a poor shooting percentage, they also have annoying turnovers, which is what the Mavericks hope for most.

Kuang Ang!Even a veteran like Stackhouse can contribute to a dunk, of course, he got boos from the audience!
"Bastard! Idiot! Country bumpkin, go back!..." Although the words were not pleasant, the New Yorkers were just venting their grievances.

Sitting off the court and watching the game, sometimes you can see many things more clearly, especially now that the team is so far behind, Lao Hu now sees many things that he didn't notice before.

For example, the female fan sitting across from her, the white girl stood up suddenly just now, with an excited expression on her face, but soon, she covered her mouth with her hand, because the Knicks' offense couldn't make any progress. , The Mavericks got another fast break opportunity.

Another example is the fat man next to her. Although this guy has been chewing popcorn, he still has a glass of beer in his hand, which makes it difficult for him to stand up. Of course, there seems to be an obstacle in his body shape.But whenever Knicks has a good opportunity, his eyes will become bigger, his mouth will open wider, and the frequency of grabbing popcorn will be higher until the entire mouth is full, or It will not stop until there is another change on the field.

Another example...

This is the fans, this is the fans who pay for tickets and support themselves all the time.To be honest, Hu Lin really didn't pay much attention to these fans before. He always focused on the court, or thought about whether he had a chance to play when the team performed poorly.But this time, he finally noticed that it was these people who were paying attention to him, these ordinary people.

They may not be as famous as Spike Lee, but their love for this team is not lacking at all...

Thinking about it, Lao Hu felt a little red on his face and a little fever.

Because he felt very embarrassed, the game was not over yet, but from what it looked like, Coach To and the other Knicks players should have given up the game. There was nothing wrong with that, after all, the situation was already like this.But Hu Lin still feels sorry for these fans who have always supported him. He feels that he and his teammates are not doing well enough, and they should be able to do better.

This psychological change came very suddenly. Lao Hu had never thought about it before playing basketball. He was reborn and only thought that playing basketball was to change himself and his destiny. That is to say, in fact, he has always played for himself.Of course, later on, for his family, for Kuo Kuo, for his friends, for his dreams... But he never had the self-consciousness of a professional player, that is, for the fans!
Really didn't think much about it, it's true.Just like what happened at the World Championships in Japan, what he immediately thought of was going home. He didn’t think about the feelings of the fans at all. Although he knew that many people in China would pay attention to the performance of the national team, he didn’t care at all. These.

That's why this guy didn't come out to explain anything when the Basketball Association and the Association were so black on him.It sounds nice to say that this guy has a personality, but in fact, this guy has never thought about his image in the hearts of the fans. No matter how bad it is, he won't care what these fans think.

Although he would read the forum and he would pay attention to media reports, but when he read it, he felt more of a sense of superiority. Even if they said some bad things, wasn't that still a concern for Hu Lin?

Therefore, it wasn't until this time that Lao Hu really noticed the fans and that he was a public figure.

"Anyway, people have bought tickets. I guess there are still many fans watching on TV, and Kuo Kuo must be watching too. Don't let them be so troublesome, even if you lose!" At this moment, Lao Hu's heart changed very much Simple, but the truth is right.

Coach Tuo should have given up the game, because he didn't remember to replace his main players until the 5th minute of the fourth quarter.At this time, the score between the two sides was already 96 to 121, and the Knicks were already 25 points behind their opponents.

This is real garbage time. To be honest, it doesn't matter whether the main force is replaced or not. Therefore, the little shark entrusted the coach and did not replace it.He also had reasons for such a chaotic scene. The big center was useless at all, at most he turned around and ran away.

No matter how much it is, it's messed up anyway, so try your best to finish the rest of the game!
"At this time, Hu Lin finally played again. The current score is definitely more difficult than the previous game against the Wizards. However, I am now looking forward to whether the Knicks will bring us some It was an accident." For the current situation, maybe only Lao Hu's appearance can arouse Yu Jia's attention.

However, this time the game was just a substitution, and there was no timeout. The ball was still in the hands of the Mavericks, and they wanted to serve from the sideline.

Snapped!Steal!As soon as Lao Hu came up, he stole the ball passed to Devon Harris!Maybe the Mavericks are leading too much now, and their players are a little relaxed. The pass was very careless, which just allowed Lao Hu to play once.

Fast attack!The road ahead is smooth, nothing, not even the Mavericks.

Kuang Ang!

That being the case, let's show it well, as soon as Lao Hu entered the paint area, he jumped high and staged a big windmill with his arms!

"Oh ho ho ho!!!..."

"RUN! ROREST! ​​RUN..."

From the cheers of the fans, you can't tell at all that the Knicks have fallen so far behind.
