Chapter 41 I'm afraid of pain
"He always seems to be able to break through the defense easily."
Xuewei's plastic besties talked about this game. It was rare for these guys who were not active at all to come to watch the football on site. Hearing them talking about the football seriously, it was an unimaginable surprise (or shock).
Xuewei is not familiar with basketball, she only understands the basic rules. She usually follows the adults at home and occasionally watches games in the four major North American leagues.
"He is so tall and can use this kind of coordination, which is really amazing." Xue Wei said bluntly.
As long as you know a little about basketball, you will know that the number one position in each era is very short, and those tall guards are heretics among heretics. This trend will not change until the children who have watched James play since childhood grow up.
No one would have thought that the tall all-round creator would become the mainstream of the future, just like the Nets did not realize that Aaron Williams was not suitable for playing against Sherlock five minutes after the game, but by then, the Pacers had already played an 11-6 advantage.
Sherlock completely shattered Williams' defense.
Williams didn't know why he was guilty of this crime. Xie Hou was not something he could defend at all. He had first-class control and extremely fast speed. It didn't take much effort to break through him.
In order to prevent Xie Hou from getting crazy the more he played, the net team took the initiative to request a pause, one was to re-arrange the tactics, and the other was to change someone to compete with Xie Hou.
The player who received this honor was Europe's forward Zoran Praninic, who actually had no confidence in defending Xie Hou.
Like Xie Hou, he has just landed in the NBA this year. As the MVP of the 2003 Croatian League, he represented the team in the Champions League and played head-on with Xie Hou during this period.
In that game, Xie Hou scored 21 points, 20 rebounds and 8 assists.
He wanted to tell the head coach that he wanted to say that he couldn't defend against Xie Hou, but if he said that, the hard-earned chance of playing would fall on others.
At this time, he needs a little self-comfort.
Maybe Arthur will lose his touch later?
Maybe Arthur is already tired of the relaxed attack?
Maybe... Maybe Arthur thinks I am too titty, and I don’t even have the desire to attack?
Although these three may be less hope than the other, and although he has never watched "Shaolin Football", he also knows that there is no difference between being a person without dreams and being a salted fish.
So, when the head coach asked him if he could limit Arthur.
Praninic said wisely: "I try to (not be beaten by him)."
Anyway, Aaron Williams, the regular player, failed, so it is normal for him to be unable to defend as a rotation player?
That's it, he came on the field.
I thought Xie Hou would say hello to him, after all, they had played in the Champions League (because he was too stingy, Xie Hou didn't remember him).
However, when Xie Hou saw him, he was like seeing a weak chicken coming on stage. He didn't say hello and smiled. The only emotion on his face was the ridicule and disgust formed by the gathering of "Where did you get the fight?"
Kidd called out tactics, and the Pacers lost O'Neal Jr. tonight, and the Nets also lost Kenyon Martin as the main attacker.
Compared to the Pacers' star-studdedness, the Nets, which lack talent and athleticism, are affected more than the end of the Nets, which lack talent and athleticism, are driven by Kidd to drive Martins.
Kidd does not exclude his teammates. Whether he is strong or not, he will give him opportunities as long as he plays. Praninic is responsible for playing against Xie Hou, and he must create some good opportunities for the opponent to increase his confidence.
Praninic is a typical European striker with solid basic skills and strong tactical qualities. If you have to play singles, you will also have good efficiency - these advantages are based on the premise that his opponent is not a monster like Xie Hou.
In order to save energy, Xie Hou deliberately gave him a good chance to play singles at a low position.
Kidd had no other concerns in his heart. Seeing that the opportunity was good, he raised his hand and passed it. However, Praninic's face changed after Kidd passed the ball. He suddenly couldn't control Xie Hou behind him. Then, the cunning Louis XI just stretched out a 224-centimeter arm span, knocking off the ball that should have fallen into his arms, just like his other nickname (the universal spider).
The next second, Xie Hou picked up the ball forward.
Miller participated in this counterattack, and his running speed was not obvious as an old man in his forties. His excellent running consciousness allowed Miller to get rid of the young man behind him. Kittles really didn't expect this to happen.
Although he can rely on his peak athletic ability to ensure that he does not fall behind too much, the interval between them has provided Xie Hou with good passing space. As long as he passes with excellent passing skills, he can send a counterattack.
Xie Hou threw the ball with one hand to the ground, and Miller scored a layup.
13 to 6
Then there was a storm of chaos.
The young Kittles was unwilling to fail and continued to try to score, but he couldn't even break through Miller's defense.
Foster protected the rebound and passed it to Miller, who was about to make a fast break. Unfortunately, although the old man had a good sense of counterattack, he slipped his hand and made a mistake when he received the ball.
The Nets got a chance to come back for free, Kidd was put one meter away, and he made a decisive move, but failed.
Williams, who had been humiliated before, returned to his most familiar position, looked light and free, and suppressed Kirilenko with his body, grabbed the offensive rebound, and was blocked by the Russians during the second attack.
The ball flew to the ground, and one warrior after another fell down. In order to compete for ownership of the floor ball, they did not hesitate to make themselves feel intimate with the floor that was glamorous and covered with bacteria.
As a result, the thick man had too much force and the ball bounced up again.
Xie Hou, who had been watching the show next to him, made a fuss to Bai Yidong (White Wolf), and inexplicably grabbed the floor ball.
"Strike back!"
Pacers home commentator Bobby Leonard roared.
Xie Hou heard the cheers of the audience. This was a moment that belonged only to him. Kidd quickly returned to the backcourt. He didn't like to compete for those cricket balls that were of little significance (not rebounds that were related to the outcome of the game). He was as calm as Xie Hou, so he retreated to the backcourt at this time.
When Xie Hou dribbled the ball fiercely, he decided to foul the opponent before the attack, and it was a fierce and fierce foul to ensure that he could not score 21.
It would be perfect if Xie Hou could lose his free throw feel with a fierce foul and could not even make the penalty.
Everyone can imagine a perfect plan, but when executed, a perfect plan will always go wrong - of course, this cannot be said that your plan is not perfect, and no one can expect what will happen in the next second.
Xie Hou should have dribbled the ball and rushed into the basket with his physical advantage. As a result, he saw Kidd standing in the paint area, his sharp eyes seemed to see through the opponent's thoughts.
"Arthur stopped outside the three-point line!" Leonard exclaimed in confusion.
"He held up the ball and actually wanted to shoot a three-pointer? This is a counterattack against the frontcourt and the small one!" (surprised and more and more confusion)
"Take it! Arthur's counterattack chases the three-pointer!" (The tone gradually rises, and it means accepting one's fate)
Xie Hou stood there, looking at the ball flying higher and higher. He felt very good, and this ball was definitely not wrong.
"Swish!!"
"He threw in!" Leonard explained that he had never seen such a monster in the game for so many years. "What a crazy move! Ladies and gentlemen! Arthur stopped the game again!"
16 to 6
This goal brought the difference to double digits.
Kidd couldn't understand Xie Hou's offensive choice. He actually chose a three-pointer from the outside when he played one-on-one in the frontcourt?
Don’t Europeans pay attention to the most reasonable basketball? Is this called reasonable?
Kid walked out angrily, as if he wanted to say something. What could he say when he was put on a word? He has always disliked showing his emotions, but now he is really emotional.
"Do you think I'll go in stupidly and get fouled by you?" Xie Hou's words made Kid stop.
How did he know what I was going to do? Kidd was startled first, and then relieved. If Xie Hou knew in advance that he was going to make a fierce foul, then it would be understandable to choose a three-point shooting from the three-point line to chase the three-pointer.
If it were him, he would know in advance that he would be fouled and he would make the same choice, but not a three-pointer, but a mid-range jump shot with a few steps inside the three-point line (grasp it even more).
"I really underestimated you." This is the first thing Kidd said to Xie Hou tonight.
"No, you are too arrogant." Xie Hou walked past Kidd with a flamboyant look, while squirting trash words. "No sneaker company is willing to sign a 7-year, 80 million contract with you. You and I are not a player of the same level at all."
Xie Hou's words were so rampant that they would scare people when they were spread. Do he know who he was talking to?
He knew he was talking to Jason Kidd, who brought the Nets into the Finals twice.
"Sorry, I just don't want to be plotted by low-level guys, I hope you can understand."
Moreover, Xie Hou is afraid of pain, which is very important (no, this is the most important).
