Basketball UFO

Chapter 17 Free throw lore?

The Nets challenged the powerful Golden State Warriors away.

In this game, the Warriors players played mediocre and failed to kill the game ahead of time. In the last minute of the fourth quarter, the two sides fought to a 1 tie.

The Nets also have a slight advantage, they have the ball.

Before re-entering the game after the timeout, Cassel suddenly stopped Carter and reminded him, "One attack, are you sure?"

Carter immediately reacted. Cassel had won two championships and was indeed experienced. In the last minute, if the Nets succeeded in attacking, they would have greater initiative at the last moment.

"You throw it in the air, and I will work in the air." Carter was full of confidence.

But Cassell didn't lob the ball directly, it was too obvious.He controlled the basketball for nearly 10 seconds, then suddenly stepped back, as if he was about to shoot, Chris Mullin immediately followed, his steps slowed down a little, and the defense looked in place.

Carter unknowingly ran back, cut into the penalty area, jumped high, and waited for the ball on the spot.

Sure enough, Cassel's ball flew over Mullin who had just landed, and was thrown into the air. Vince Carter caught it in mid-air, then changed the direction of his wrist and pushed it into the basket.

"Whoosh", the basketball hit the net, like a bamboo shoot spit out of the ground, full of vitality.

With an incredible cooperation, Carter quietly avoided Sprewell's defense, made an alley-oop shot and made an easy hit.

"Wow, what a special tactic, there is such a coordination."

"Carter's ability to stay in the air is too strong, he is completely in the air waiting for the basketball to fly over."

The on-site commentators were stunned that Carter could make such a move.

"Strong core strength, Carter's waist and abdomen are definitely specially trained. It's too strong, and the body control is very abnormal."

This attack took exactly 12 seconds.There are 48 seconds left, two shots, the Warriors are 2 points behind, and the pressure is in their hands.

"The Warriors must score in this wave of offense, otherwise the pressure will be too great."

The head coach of the Warriors is Rick Adelman. He has not yet coached the Kings. He only got 36 victories when he joined the Warriors last season. This season's mission is to enter the playoffs.It's a pity that the players of this team have no individual strength, and the cooperation with each other is not as good as imagined, and it is difficult to play cohesion.

Adelman said that it sounds good because he trusts the main players and has always let the main players play for a long time. Now at the critical moment, there are still five starters on the field.

Chris Mullin was nearly 35 years old, and he played consecutive back-to-back games. At this time, his physical fitness could hardly keep up with the rhythm of young people, and he was stolen by Cassell with an extremely beautiful assist.

The Warriors trailed by 2 points and took control of the offensive round.

Mullin lobbed to the inside, preparing to grab one. Joe Smith made rough moves, but still failed to score the ball and was fouled by Sean Bradley.

Bradley tried his last breath to pull the opponent down. He also committed 6 fouls and graduated smoothly.

"The Nets' inside line is too weak. Sean looks very tall, but his physical fitness and physical fitness are not enough. He played very hard. Even if Joe Smith cooperates with Carter, the effect will be better."

Sean Bradley committed all the fouls, and Tony Masenberg came off the bench. The team really didn't have many usable players, three or two big cats and small cats.

Look at Joe Smith's free throws.

The No. 95 pick in [-] stood at the free throw line and took a deep breath.

The first free throw was missed.

Mu Lin was helpless, and came to clap his hands with him, "Calm down, brother!"

"It's just a pain in my wrist, it's okay, I will overcome the difficulty." The free throw is not only attributed to the pain from being hit by Sean just now.

Adjust your posture and do it again.The basketball slid out of an arc and kissed the net hard, but it didn't reach the height of the basket and almost didn't touch it.

"Damn..."

Cast to the sidelines.Missing two free throws, the Nets laughed.

It is a violation, the Nets' foul ball.Adelman immediately called a timeout, and with 30 seconds left, he must find a way to recover.

There is no need to go to foul tactics, and the whole court presses the defense.

Cassell was very steady, and slowly controlled the half court and gave it to Carter.Carter didn't rush to attack either. The team had the advantage and time wasted.A few simple conduction balls returned to Carter's hands.

There are 5 seconds left on the shot clock.

Carter started, Sprewell couldn't keep up, and immediately fouled. Unexpectedly, Carter took off at the same time and shot directly.

It's a pity that it didn't enter and was destroyed by Sprewell.

Two free throws.

Carter gets to the free throw line.Joe Smith made a mental attack, "No. 15 rookie, your free throws will be the same as mine."

Carter smiled and hit the first free throw directly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't learn your free throw method." Retorted, let you talk again.With my big mouth, Carter, I am not afraid of anyone.

Carter's mouth is really big, and now his nose is also very big.All in all, not the handsome guy type, but full of masculinity!

Male hormones are bursting!

The Nets have already led by 3 points. If the second free throw is hit, the Warriors must foul tactics, otherwise there is no possibility of winning.

Carter did not leave any suspense and made another free throw.

Shrug to Joe Smith for not giving you a chance to curse success, I'm your opposite.

Adelman called a timeout again, deploying offensive tactics, the Warriors do not want to lose the game.

"Carter's free throws are very stable. This season's free throw percentage exceeds 89%. It is rare for a rookie to have such a free throw percentage."

"God, this is Carter's 27th point in the game. The Nets are leading by 4 points. The Warriors are in danger."

打了37分钟，得到27分6篮板5助攻，还有2次抢断2次盖帽，卡特又一场常规演出。

So far this season, he has scored more than 20 points in every game. He is too adaptable and too strong.

"Carter in the NCAA only averaged about 16 points per game. In the NBA, he actually directly improved by 10 points. He is too strong. Such a player is born to be a superstar."

It's just because Carter didn't work too hard in the NCAA league and focused on polishing his skills.And there was Duncan in the team at that time. Duncan played very easily in the game, basically sweeping the other teams, and the college students couldn't stop it.

The Warriors were back on the court with nine seconds left in the game.

Chris Mullin caught the ball and gave it to Sprewell, who shouldered Kendall Gill off his shoulders and forced a high jumper.

hit!

"Madman" Sprewell's strength should not be underestimated.He teamed up with Garnett and Cassell to form the Three-Headed Monster and also reached the Western Conference Finals.

112:114, with a gap of 2 points, the Warriors still have a chance.

In the last 5 seconds, the ball was in the hands of the Nets.

The Warriors have already fought hard. They defended frantically, making it impossible for the Nets to serve.Calipari called a timeout again and redeployed the serving tactics.

Tony Massenberg was on the sidelines, conceding the ball to the other side of the field.Sure enough, Carter threw off Sprewell, rushed over to get the ball, and didn't rush to attack.Instead, run to the other side.

Sprewell couldn't catch anyone, Mark Price successfully fouled, and there was one second left in the time.

"As long as Carter misses one free throw, we have a chance." Chris Mullin counts well.With a gap of two points, the Warriors can win the game, and with a gap of three points, it is expected to enter overtime, and the two sides will fight again.

Carter once again stood at the free throw line and clearly felt the pressure was different.

"It's just a game, just treat it with a normal mind." Carter adjusted himself and returned to the normal rhythm of free throws.

The first free throw bounced off the rim and fell into the net.

Cassel immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "This guy's mentality is almost unbearable. Yes, he still can withstand the pressure."

It is actually not easy for a player like Kassel who has a personality and has won a championship to be recognized.Carter's ability to lead the team and personal ability made Cassel heartbroken.

For the second penalty, everyone became nervous.

It's up to Carter.

"Will it be a free throw lore? If you score again, the game will be over."

"Carter arranged the last 6 points of the Nets. He deserves to be the leader of the team. He has become a supernova in the league."

Joe Smith also wanted to engage in mentality, made a fake move, and prepared to grab a rebound.

Carter didn't pay attention to this at all. In the crowd of fans, a large sway of feathers was affecting the players' sight.

Four shots, same rhythm as always.

Carter pushed the ball lightly with his right hand, quickly entered the net and hit again.

"Carter killed the game. In the last second, even if the Warriors scored, it was useless."

With this free throw, the Warriors' last bit of hard work sank to the San Francisco Bay, and the Bay Bridge couldn't bear it.

"Game over, Nets win on the road. Vince Carter kills the game with a free throw."

The Nets scored 116 points in the away game, a slight advantage of 4 points, beating the Warriors.

Carter scored 29 points in another perfect game.

Finally, in the four consecutive away games in the West, they stole a victory.

"The road trip to the Western Conference is a difficult process, but the team withstood the pressure and won a difficult game. In the next game, we will be better prepared to face the Los Angeles Clippers." Calipari was very excited and took advantage of the trend Play psychological warfare.

"I don't know if the Clippers management will regret it. They chose Carter with the seventh overall pick, but did not keep Carter. Our trade in the draft will become one of the best trades in team history."

Kassel scored 10 assists in this game, and also had a double-double of 15 points, which appeared in the post-match reporter interview session.

"The Warriors are very strong, they are difficult to deal with. Fortunately, the team has Carter, he is the core of the team, leading the team to victory."

Cassell was really convinced, and even felt that another Jordan appeared in the Nets.

This is a first-year rookie, and no one can predict where he will go in the future.

After the game, the Nets players were reluctant to leave the locker room.With an early flight to Los Angeles tonight, everyone has something on their minds.

Seeing Carter finally come out of the bathroom, a group of brawny men with naked upper body surrounded him.

"Boss, you said..."

Carter immediately understood what these bastards meant.As long as there is no game tomorrow and the team wins, they can enjoy the fast food provided by the boss.

"No problem, make arrangements. When you arrive in Los Angeles, we will make arrangements in the evening."

He looked at Robert Parker and the others again, showing teasing eyes, "You fought so hard at night, do you still have the strength?"

"It's not a problem to play another game." Robert Parker hurriedly showed his muscles, "Look, I haven't sweated yet!"

"Yes, what young people are most afraid of is double-teaming." Jason Williams quickly stated, "I can still break through the defense of two people at night." He is actually 28 years old and has been fooling around in the league for nearly 7 years. Considered a young player.

"Since we still have energy, let's go to Avalon to experience the atmosphere of Los Angeles. Don't die on the dance floor for me." Carter warned, "We have to win the game the day after tomorrow. We will train hard tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and we will beat Los Angeles Clippers.”

No one was listening to what was said later, and only voices such as "Long live the boss" and "The boss is so great" came from the locker room.

That night, Cassel led the team, and the whole team played another game.

Carter did not participate in the training camp because he had other appointments. He traveled to many cities in the United States before, and still has many friends who can communicate with each other for a long time.

"They all signed a non-disclosure agreement. No matter how much money the media gives them, it's useless. If they disclose the matter, I can get more." Carter smiled slightly and explained to Mucci.

Some trivial matters have to be dealt with by Mu Qi.Carter ate meat, and Mookie drank soup, which made John Mudgee so happy that he lost weight.

This relationship is comparable to Teacher Chen, no, even more popular than Teacher Chen.Mr. Chen was only eating meat back then. Fans have had a dry addiction, and Mu Qi can also eat some other meat and drink different soups.

About to face Carter, the Clippers management was scolded by the boss again.

"You guys are a bunch of trash, what the hell did you do in the draft? You sent Carter away. If you didn't make that deal, Carter would be a Clippers player and he would lead the Clippers to the sky." Donald Sterling held back a feeling. The evil fire, having nowhere to vent, reached out to the female secretary again, ready to settle it with money.

Donald Sterling thought of Elgin Baylor and head coach Bill Fitch, and muttered quietly, "This nigger is unreliable, and Bill doesn't know how to stop him, and he's a piece of shit."

The Clippers management was inexplicably scolded again. They chose Carter and traded out because of the lard at that time. Now it's all right. They quickly made a name for themselves and stepped on the door.

In the draft, Elgin Baylor knew about the Nets' draft plan, and used his pick to get a spot, earning $30. He also used the price of the eighth pick to sign with Lorenzen White. Save millions of dollars.

Unexpectedly, it was a big loss.

Not to mention other things, Carter's jersey sales profits for the Nets have exceeded one million US dollars.Not to mention the fan attention it has attracted, TNT has added three more national live broadcasts for the Nets.

Live broadcasting across the United States is a profitable business.

Think how long the season has only started!

Carter also brought chewing gum on fire. The Green Arrow gum he chewed has become the new favorite of fans. Many fans deliberately chew gum while watching the game to increase the workload of the cleaning staff after the game.

"We want to use the victory to wash away the shame!" Bill Fitch brainwashed the players.

A group of players can't figure it out, where is the shame?The management is scolded, none of their business.

Rodney Rogers and Malik Healey looked at each other, and they both saw sincere confusion in each other's eyes. They really didn't understand what the coach was talking about.
