Chapter 506 Breakthrough Again

Compared with old teammate Dirk Nowitzki, Nash's situation is obviously much "miserable".

Although he has 2 consecutive MVP trophies, he has no FMVP finale, so even if he wins two more MVPs, it doesn't mean much to him.It's not that the MVP trophy is not important, it's just that when you have two, your eyes will naturally shift.Move onto those things you don't have yourself.

What's more, from the original nature of competitive sports, the championship is the highest honor.

You are a former quasi-super giant, but you don't have an FMVP background. This result means that you will never be able to advance to the level of a super giant.And with the passage of history, your historical status will only decline, not increase.So Nash is envious of his old teammate Nowitzki, besides envy.Even for a few moments, Nash thought about it, if he hadn't left Dallas...

This shows how much Steve Nash desires for a championship.

From the FMVP champion, to the main champion, and even to the substitute champion, as long as he can get that golden trophy, as long as he can get that golden ring, Nash has lowered his psychological bottom line again and again.However, he thought he was coming to the Lakers to hold his thighs, but he never thought that the problems in Los Angeles far exceeded his imagination.

Heh, you still want the championship? ? ?Can't make it to the playoffs! ! !

The fighting spirit of the Lakers is obviously declining. Also, in the face of a big lead and the almost desperate pressure to advance, how many people can maintain their fighting spirit?How many people can maintain a competitive heart?Even for star players, it is difficult to do so.

Unless it's like the 24th, that kind of paranoia is almost the same.

Kobe also did his best and scored a back-and-forth step to lick the basket. It can be seen that he is already very tired. The most recent playing time has been more than 42 minutes. For a veteran who is about to turn 35 years old , which is too much.But on the face of the Black Mamba, there is only the desire to continue fighting, continue to shoot, and continue to score.

What is fatigue, his body knows, but his spirit does not know.

He is such a man who likes to force himself.

Knowing that No. 23 in Chicago is far away, I still have to force myself to move forward and approach the back of that "God" bit by bit.No wonder Phil Jackson once wrote in his autobiography that in terms of paranoid attributes, in the field of basketball, Kobe did not lose to Jordan at all, and even slightly surpassed Jordan.

But unfortunately, he is far behind Qiao Shen in terms of physical fitness and leadership ability.

This is a gap that is difficult to make up the day after tomorrow, even if you try harder, even if you have reached your potential to the limit, that's the same.

The reality is so cruel.

A gap is, after all, a gap.

Nowitzki can be regarded as one of the big names in the league. He has repeatedly expressed his admiration for Kobe's spirit of "knowing that it is impossible but insisting on sprinting".Because he is a basketball player himself, he understands the concept of No. 23 in Chicago.The proud son of heaven, LeBron, is considered a bull, right?But even if he won 6 championships, he is still not as good as Jordan.

The honor accumulation of No. 23 in Chicago is enough to make any chasers despair.

Even James said that he never thought of surpassing Jordan, but counting the league, there are still such "overestimated" people.For example, No. 24 of the Lakers is one.

This kind of courage to chase after God is simply not possessed by ordinary people, and even those who are close may not have it.

Only the paranoid with slightly perverted psychology can do it.

So Nowitzki really admires Kobe from the bottom of his heart, not only for his skills, but also for his spirit and ambition.

but……

I'm still going to beat you tonight.

Because of the victory, I will never give it up.

Your time... our time... may be over.

Um?this little guy?
I thought that only Kobe on the Lakers team still maintained a tenacious fighting spirit, but unexpectedly, the same is true for No. 29 on the opposite side.

This surprised Nowitzki a bit.

"Boy, your fighting spirit is really tenacious. I didn't expect the Lakers to have another person so stubborn besides that paranoid." Nowitzki said while asking for a seat.Tang Qian didn't take over, but the defensive intensity was getting bigger and bigger.

When Nowitzki received the basketball again, Tang Qian exerted his strength in an instant, and his whole body stuck to it.

What?This guy has such a big defensive move? ? ?

Nowitzki's surprise is also normal, because in the regular season, if you make too many defensive moves, it is extremely easy to eat the whistle.Why is it said that the regular season and the playoffs are completely different things?In addition to the different competitive status of the players, there is another very important point, that is, the change of the penalty scale.

The defensive action of No. 29 on the opposite side is actually a bit beyond the "standard" of the regular season.

The eyes of the three referees on the field were also focused on this offensive and defensive confrontation.

But Tang Qian had no intention of restraining himself at all.

"Hey, kid, I'm kind enough to tell you that if you defend like this, you will definitely be called for a foul." However, Tang Qian ignored Nowitzki's words, and was still concentrating and trying his best to defend.Seeing that the other party ignored him at all, Nowitzki was also a little displeased. He was determined to teach this No. 29 a good lesson.So, a shoulder-sinking confrontation, Nowitzki prepares to attack.

Shoulder sinking confrontation is one of the ways to increase the distance between the defender and the defender. Again, there is no such thing as a shoulder sinking foul in the NBA. People who shout this on the field actually don’t understand the rules at all.If you want to penalize a foul, it is also an offensive foul. It is caused by you violating the opponent's normal defensive space. If you have to be serious, it is nothing more than the term "lower. the. shoulder" in the rules.But in fact, it is just an explanation for offensive fouls, and there is no special rule about "shoulder sinking".

Moreover, when the defender presses too hard, many NBA players will use their shoulders or arms or even sink their heads to push the defender away to obtain normal offensive space.As long as the movement range is appropriate, there will never be a referee calling for an offensive foul.But after the first shoulder-sinking confrontation, Nowitzki suddenly found that the opposite No. 29 was pressing up immediately. The strength and attitude of the defense was very similar to the playoffs.

Nowitzki hit the ball twice more, and even scratched the opponent's chin with his elbow once, but the Lakers No. 29, as if he didn't feel it, just continued to stick to the defense with great intensity.

Since you are not afraid of being whistled for a foul, then I am also welcome!
Thinking of this, Nowitzki saw the opportunity to dribble and cut, and immediately rushed over from Tang Qian's left side.

Very well, Nowitzki had an advantage close to one position.

This is something that can’t be helped. If you cling too closely to someone, the easier it will be for you to pass by. Even if Jordan came, it would make no difference.But just when Nowitzki was about to move on and get closer to the basket, there was a sense of confrontation on the left side of his body.And, extremely strong.

Nowitzki is also experienced, subconsciously shooting, ready to win a 2+1 opportunity.

But to his surprise, none of the three referees sounded the whistle.

This is a little weird!

Logically speaking, it is impossible for them not to see such a strong sense of confrontation. How could they not carry out the whistleblowing?

But what the German didn't expect was that it was still behind. The basketball he had just left his hand did not touch the Lakers' basket a second later.
The basketball was shot directly out of the baseline.

This...how did this happen? ? ?

Nowitzki was a little confused, but soon, a figure gave him the answer.

"China Hot even caught up to block Dirk Nowitzki's restricted shot??? He is so impressive... oh~ no, be careful!" Amid Bill McDonald's commentary, a huge yellow The figure immediately passed Nowitzki's side, and then hit the pedestal under the basket firmly!

However, the most unbelievable thing for the German is that he saw clearly just now that the opponent's head was only about 1cm away from the bottom edge of the backboard.It's even close to the past at all!hell!With such a fast impact, if he hit his head, would he die of pain? ? ?The physical tolerance of yellow people is not even as good as their own, let alone black people!Well, even if you are a black person, if you do this, the consequences will be unpredictable, right?
He, he worked so hard for a ball? ? ?Is it even possible to build a career? ? ?What, what does this guy want to do? ? ?are you crazy? ? ?
No wonder Nowitzki was surprised and astonished, because the NBA is mainly a business league that makes money. As a professional basketball player, you will rely on playing basketball for a living. Big hair?Don't think that the NBA is full of idiots. Even if some people's IQs are not very good, once it comes to US dollars and money, they are afraid that their IQ will be almost the same as that of a doctor in an instant.

This is the charm of "the root of all evil" money.

So like this kind of blocking, few people in the NBA choose to do it, because if one is not good, it is easy...

But it's not like no one did it.

If you look at the video footage, you will find that Jordan, Kobe, Russell, James, etc. all have such frequent blocking scenes.Aren't they afraid of being wiped out by rebounds?Thinking about it afterwards, of course he was afraid, but at that moment, his body's instincts were activated before his consciousness.Furthermore, there is another point, that is, their luck is quite tyrannical. Although they have done a lot of dangerous moves, it seems that they have never had any major problems because of this.

It’s not that there are no such stunners in the league. Marion also did this kind of thing back then, because the blocking jump was too high and the angle was too tricky, so his whole head hit the basket and lay on the ground for a long time just got up.Later, after an examination, it was undoubtedly a concussion, so after being frightened once, he became less courageous.From this point of view, luck is also very important. If you have never been injured by it, then there is no such thing as a psychological shadow.

The names above are all very lucky people who spared no effort in defense, but injuries due to this rarely happen.

As for the current young players, most of them lack this kind of desperate temperament. For them, it is still safe to play steadily and earn US dollars comfortably.You can say that they are pragmatic and know how to protect their bodies, but in the long run, it is actually not good for the blood and vigor of the entire alliance.

Too gentle and too civilized, is this still called professional basketball?Is this still called the NBA?

Furthermore, Nowitzki was also vaguely aware of one point, that is, this Dongfang No. 29 did not blindly increase the defensive strength and defensive actions, but...increased bit by bit!what does that mean? ? ?As an ordinary fan, it may not be clear, but as a famous star in the league, with a career spanning more than ten years, would the German Nowitzki not know?
This, this is him testing the penalty scale of the referee in this game! ! !

This little guy!It's not easy!Ordinary defensive blue-collars don't have such awareness and habits!

If he mastered this skill, it means that he can fully walk on the edge of foul and non-foul!This is definitely an extremely headache for the offensive side!

No, you can't scare yourself! There are a lot of stunned young people in the NBA. Maybe he just made a judgment subconsciously because of his enthusiasm for a while?This is also very possible!After all, there are many people in the alliance who want to master this trick, but very few can really do it!Even the German Nowitzki himself is very far away from this realm.

Therefore, he didn't want to believe that a sophomore oriental rookie had the tendency to master this kind of skill and even "rules".

If this is only in the second grade, it will touch the edge?Wouldn't there be another terrifying blue-collar hero in the future?

Nowitzki is unwilling to encounter such bad luck at the end of his career.

Therefore, he decided to make another strong attack with the next ball, in order to determine whether the opponent has touched the "edge".

"Dirk, go on!"

After the whistle, Nowitzki held the ball again, and after the Mavs pulled away one after another, he turned around, almost exactly the same as before, broke through the bottom line, and went straight to the basket of the Lakers.

bang~
Sure enough, it was similar to just now, when Nowitzki had just made a breakthrough, a strong sense of physical confrontation suddenly appeared on the left side.But this time Nowitzki was prepared, so during the three-step layup, he slowed down his speed a little, adjusted his center of gravity, and then shot.

The angle he chose for this ball was very wide, and it was a high post cricket.

As we all know, it is almost impossible to block shots to play cricket at a high position.

It’s okay if there is no confrontation, you can sprint, accelerate, and jump at will without any scruples, but when there is confrontation, it’s easy for you to act like this...

W, what! ! !
