"Beep..." After the referee whistled, Nick Collinson stretched out his hand depressedly, indicating that it was his own foul. After Bossjan Nakba made two free throws, the score on the field became 62 41. Szczerbiak finally narrowed the point difference to less than [-] points with two three-pointers, and was pulled back immediately.

The New Jersey Nets were able to lead the Supersonics by [-] points in just over halftime. Thanks to the performance of the whole team and the weak offense of the Supersonics, now the Nets have scored in double figures with four players , and only Stephen scored in double figures on the Supersonic team, and Stephen only scored [-] points in the first quarter, and ended up with too many fouls before the end of the first quarter.

Relying on the hard work and hard work of the whole team, regardless of fouls, the Sonics managed to keep the point difference within [-] points. It is not because of the strength of the Nets, but that the performance of the Sonics today is very bad. The Nets are still the original Nets team, but the Sonics are not the Sonics team that is invincible in offense and captures the enemy's defense line.

In the final analysis, the current Sonics still cannot do without Stephen. When the first quarter hit a little more than 8 minutes, the Sonics still led the Nets by four points, but as Stephen scored twice in a very short period of time, After receiving the foul, plus his one foul in the previous game, he got three fouls in less than one quarter, and Stephen had to go off the court to rest.

The loss of Stephen made the Sonics lose their core on both ends of the offense and defense, but the Nets seized this opportunity. Under the leadership of Jason Kidd, the offense was very popular. At the end of the first quarter , has overtaken and led the Sonics by seven points.

In the second quarter, Stephen still sat on the court and did not play. After a short period of confusion, the Nets quickly launched an offensive again, expanding the point difference to more than [-] points in one fell swoop. Fortunately, Carlesimo used substitutions at this time stabilized the situation.

Although Kurt Thomas and Robert Horry failed to solve the offensive problem, they used defense to contain the Nets' offensive. Just when many people thought that Stephen would change to play at this time, Stephen Still sitting on the field motionless.

After Carlesimo found that his team's offense could not be resolved, he immediately thought of the tactic of using defense to disrupt the opponent's offense, replacing all the main players and replacing them with substitute players who rarely played this season, and then let them Use fierce fouls to interrupt the opponent's offense.

Obviously this is just an expedient measure. This method is impossible to win the game, but it can interrupt the opponent's offense. However, the Nets still rely on piecemeal methods to widen the score difference between the end of the first half It's 25 points.

Vince Carter, Richard Jefferson, and Persian Janakba are the leading contributors to the Nets, especially Nakbar. Although the Slovenian player is considered abnormal in physical fitness among whites, his defense is very poor. This is also the main reason why he didn't like Van Gundy and was eventually traded away by the Rockets.

In the Nets, because the team does not emphasize defense, his offensive ability has been displayed to the greatest extent. He is the number one bench gangster in the Nets' bench lineup. His three-pointers and breakthroughs are often outstanding. With his handsome face, sunny smile and chic offensive moves, at least in the eyes of female fans, he is the most popular and one of the top three handsome guys in the league.

It was only when he was on the bench in the second quarter that he opened the score in one fell swoop. However, after being fouled by Wilkins twice in a row, he immediately lost his touch. Otherwise, let him continue to play and score. The difference must be widened to thirty points.

After the intermission, when the second half of the game started, everyone found that Stephen still didn't appear on the field, but continued to sit on the bench. Even if he was fouled three times, he shouldn't be playing now. Could it be that his body appeared? What's the problem? He was punished by the team because of his two unnecessary fouls.

Carlesimo shouldn't have the guts. This is thought by many people who know Carlesimo very well, but they still can't explain why Stephen didn't play. I saw him sitting there, covering his face with a towel most of the time , Occasionally observe the situation on the court and say a few words to the coach or teammates.

Fortunately, as soon as the third quarter came up, Szczerbiak made two consecutive three-pointers to help the team draw closer to the game. Although he was pulled back by two points by the opponent, it seemed that the point difference was not as good as it was. That's terrible, but with a 21-point difference, three minutes and 25 seconds have passed in the third quarter, and the Sonics still haven't been able to find a sure point of attack. This is their biggest problem.

At this time, the broadcast booth quickly captured a picture from a camera, and switched to it in an instant. Carlesimo twisted his body and was talking to Stephen. Could it be that Stephen is going to play? Those who had no interest sat up straight.

Stephen already has this appeal. As the leading scorer this season and the player who led the team to improve the record quickly, some people call him a miraculous or phenomenal player. If he can play, he will definitely be able to change the game. on the situation.

After working hard all night, Stephen felt that his body was indeed his own. Fortunately, he slept in the Windsor Hotel until noon, and he felt much better. Then he returned to Newark from New York. After returning, no matter what Whether it was the coaching staff or the teammates, neither asked Stephen to go tonight. After all, this was a private wedding, which is very important in the United States.

Because I played the game at night and flew over from the away game again, the team did not arrange training in the morning, and most of the players were resting. In the afternoon, after a simple training, I started to prepare for tonight's game .

Stephen felt that there was nothing wrong with his body, at least it shouldn't be a problem to cope with one game, who knew that in the game, Stephen felt something strange with this force, his body could only exert [-]% of his body at most Combat power, and simply not enough to last a game.

After finding out, Stephen had already scored [-] points. At this time, Stephen made a decision, that is, to take a rest by himself, save the decisive time until the second half, and save his energy off the court, but Stephen was embarrassed to take the initiative to ask for a rest. At the same time, in that case, the teammates would not have the heart to fight desperately, so Stephen took the initiative to apply for two fouls and left the game.

Of course, Stephen didn't make it so obvious. Everyone thought that Stephen didn't grasp the referee's penalty scale. No one thought that Stephen wanted to rest after the game. Only Carlesimo thought of this, but he didn't say much , and after replacing Stephen, there was no plan to let him play again in the first half.

However, the players didn't quickly adapt to Stephen's absence. The team lost points consecutively, and at the same time the offense often failed to score. Stephen watched anxiously from below, and simply covered his head with Mao You, so that he could not see it.

Before the start of the second half, Carlesimo secretly asked Stephen if he would play, and Stephen said to rest for a few minutes to see if his teammates can maintain the current score without being expanded, and he will have more energy for one point at night.

For tonight's game, Stephen didn't have the confidence to win, but Stephen naturally wouldn't give up without a fight. When Carlesimo asked if he wanted to play, Stephen replied that he would observe again, in case the team The offense has improved, and I can't be able to play for a few minutes at night.

I once thought that the team's offense was still playing well just now. In the blink of an eye, in less than 2 minutes, the opponent widened the point difference to 27 points. Now Carlesimo couldn't sit still, stood up and shouted. There was a timeout, and at this time Stephen also stood up on his own initiative, ready to play.

It will be too late if you don’t play anymore, and the game time is getting less and less. If the point difference is widened, even if Stephen’s ability is against the sky, he may not be able to reverse it, so although he feels that his body has not recovered enough to satisfy him, Stephen still plans to play.

Seeing Stephen standing up on his own initiative, Carlesimo understood what Stephen meant. He originally planned to arrange a tactic, but now he made a substitution. Stephen returned to the court with all the main lineup, and the Nets immediately improved. Be vigilant.

After Stephen came up, he caught the ball and shot it from outside the three-point line. As a result, he threw an air ball directly into Wilcox's arms, which made Wilcox very depressed. Is it a pass or a shot? If it is a pass, forget it, if it is a shot, it should be counted as a rebound.

Stephen used a shot to find the touch, and then Wilcox passed the ball back to Stephen. Stephen immediately began to try to break through. After getting rid of Carter's defense, Stephen easily passed Sean Williams, but Still missed the basket shot.

However, Stephen grabbed the rebound himself, made a fake shot to attract Josh Boone's attention, and then passed the ball to Coupard, but Coupard's shot was destroyed by Sean Williams again, Although the possession of the ball is still with the Sonics, the attack time is less than ten seconds.

Wilcox sent the ball directly to Stephen's hands. Facing the double-teaming of Carter and Sean Williams, Stephen took a step back to the three-point line, and Sean Williams raised his hand Immediately flew up, and then Stephen made a safe shot, the ball flew directly into the basket, and the point difference came to 24 points. Although this was just an ordinary three-pointer, it represented the beginning of a reversal chase.
