Chapter 534 Half Chapter 4

Although Jamal's offense was good, his defense was terrible. Stephen's breakthrough didn't use much force at all, Jamal Crawford was pushed aside, and Zach Randolph's supplementary defense was not active. Stephen easily got to the basket, raised his hand for a layup, and scored two points like walking in the courtyard.

Stephen didn't plan to pursue his own scoring today, but the opponent's defense is so poor, if he doesn't score, he's a bit sorry for the opponent's release. You said that this is Zach Randolph, so why don't you come over to defend and let yourself make a change? Yes, the aggressiveness of this defense is not as good as when he was in the Portland Trail Blazers. Why didn't he disappoint Stephen.

Stephen didn't expect that scoring would be so easy. Perhaps this is the main reason why many people scored high scores against the Knicks. Or try to score with all your strength today to see how many points you can get. However, Stephen is very happy. Put this idea aside quickly, or forget it, anyway, no matter how many points you get, you still like what you should like, and it's useless to work hard if you don't like yourself.

I still pursue victory. As for scoring, scoring is like a cloud to me. Stephen has such a feeling that there is no need to deliberately score, as long as the opportunity is right to score, and not only to score more, but also to grab more rebounds , pass the ball more to teammates, steal more and block shots. Anyway, as long as the team needs it, I will do it myself, and I must try my best. Unlike other people, Stephen does not need to take special care of his physical strength. It's not particularly intense games or consecutive away games. Stephen rarely encounters physical problems, which is why Stephen has performed very well this season.

Nate Robinson was unable to break through Watson's line of defense, so he had to force a shot, but the shot was very biased, and the general bounced off the basket. In the basket battle, Coupard encountered the same problem as Stephen. , Zach Randolph's lower body is also extremely solid, but the fat and elastic flesh layer on it prevents him from fully exerting his strength, and a few squeezes have no effect.

Although he was six centimeters taller than the opponent, he failed to grab the rebound. After Zach Randolph grabbed the rebound, he shook his hand and seemed to be about to make a shot. Coupard jumped up to block the shot in a hurry. The opponent, but this was a fake move. Zach Randolph waited for him to jump up before raising his hand and hitting him, and at the same time, he shot the ball towards the basket.

Although the ball was not sent into the basket in the end, it caused a foul by Coupard. Zach Randolph made two free throws. After returning, Stephen deliberately ran to Zach after breaking through Jamal Crawford. Zach Randolph shot in front of him, if he was far away, Zach Randolph would naturally pretend not to see it, but at such a close distance, Zach Randolph's only professional spirit made him turn around in a hurry , stretched out his hand to block Stephen.

A smile flashed across Stephen's eyes. For such a defense, he had dozens of ways to score, but Stephen didn't want to score by himself. A left turn followed by a right turn made Zach Randolph confused for a while, no When he knew what Stephen was going to do, Stephen suddenly passed the ball from his side to Coupard behind him. After Coopard got the ball, he turned his back and leaned back, throwing Zach Randolph While squeezing to the side, with a loud roar, he rose up from the spot, holding the ball with both hands and pouring the ball heavily into the basket.

Zach Randolph has advantages in technique and footwork, but Coupard also has advantages in strength and height. The competition between the two inside and the competition between Stephen and Jamal Crawford on the outside become two teams. In the main battlefield, the two sides fought fiercely, and the scene was very lively, but in fact there was no technical content.

This kind of drama may be enough to coax the Knicks fans, but the fans in Seattle are not so easily satisfied. They kept calling for defense in the stands, asking the home team to strengthen their defense to suppress the opponent's scoring. At this time, they took the lead in responding It’s still Stephen, Zach Randolph and Coupard squeezed under the basket for a long time, but they didn’t find too many opportunities. Coupard fought against him for such a big meeting, and slowly made a little progress, knowing how to defend He, it's not that easy for him to make a move.

After Zach Randolph found that there was no chance under the basket, he turned around from the basket, took two consecutive retreats, and escaped from Coupard's defensive range. He raised his hand and was about to shoot, and suddenly A figure sprang out and blocked the ball in his hand with lightning speed. Although the ball fell into his arms again, Stephen's quick and concise block still made the fans excited.

After being blocked by Stephen, Zach Randolph's confidence in shooting dropped a lot. Instead of shooting himself, he attracted the attention of the defense and passed the ball to David Lee at the basket. David Lee easily Layup.

However, the offense of the Sonics is also no problem. This time, Stephen did not hold the ball in his hands like before. Instead, after running without the ball, he easily appeared on the three-point line. Mark Crawford didn't know where he was thrown for a long time, Watson's pass arrived in time, and Stephen unceremoniously raised his hand and made a three-pointer.

"Swish" Jamal Crawford's three-pointer passed through the net. Today, his touch is also very good. Stephen made all the defensive moves for this shot, and squeezed Jamal Crawford away abruptly. One step away from the three-point line, and his hands almost covered his face, but Crawford was still able to hit the ball, and there was nothing anyone could do about it.

However, afterward, Stephen improved his defensive level against Jamal Crawford. He was not so easy to shoot. After two consecutive missed shots, he didn't have much confidence in his shots, and he was no longer actively reaching out for the ball. , The Knicks' offense has entered a brief stagnation, without a hotspot on offense, it is not a good thing for a team.

The Sonics seized this opportunity, and Stephen scored five points with a penalty shot, leading by five points. After a round of rotation, the ball returned to Nate Robinson. Nate Robinson called David After Li blocked Watson for himself, he rushed towards the basket with the ball. Stephen and Coupard blocked his path from left to right, preventing him from entering at will. He handed the ball to Jamal Crawford again.

Jamal Crawford didn't dare to make random shots from the outside at this time. Holding the ball, he changed hands and dribbled twice in a row, making a fake move to break through from Stephen's left side. Although Stephen was not completely deceived, But he also shifted his body to the left, but Jamal Crawford immediately killed from the right, Stephen turned around in a hurry and chased after him in three or two steps.

Jamal Crawford saw that he couldn't get rid of Stephen's defense, so he passed the ball to Nate Robinson on the outside. After Nate Robinson received the ball, he immediately launched an attack from the weak side to the basket. Wilco Kex hurried over to help defend, but at this time Nate Robinson remembered his responsibilities as a point guard. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Quentin Richardson standing alone outside the three-point line. Turned into a pass and passed the ball.

At this time, Durant, who was defending Quentin Richardson, followed Jamal Crawford to the bottom corner. Stephen, who was defending Quentin Richardson, had to run over at the fastest speed, but Quentin Richardson had already caught the ball and made all the adjustments. Stephen saw Quentin Richardson jumping short, and at this time he was still more than one meter away from him, so he took advantage of the impact Push the floor harder, and it soars into the sky under the slight rebound force of the floor. When the ball flies out of Quentin Richardson’s hands, Stephen also flies into the air. The two are facing each other. The balls collided with each other exactly, and because Stephen used all his strength to block the block, there was a loud "bang" that shook the ears of everyone in the stadium, and they saw the ball melt into a ball. The light flew from the field to the outside at a faster speed than before, and fell into the hands of that lucky guy.

The data of Stephen's four blocked shots was quickly displayed on the big screen, and the game time has only passed 5 minutes and three seconds. In less than half a quarter, four blocked shots were sent out, which also created one of the league's most The record of four blocked shots is about to be achieved, and Stephen's four blocked shots were given to three people, and the three are not his own defensive players. I don't know if he should say that he is omnipresent, or that he is not doing his job properly. Woolen cloth.

"There has never been such a player. A defender has such ability to block shots. I have a hunch that today's Key Center Arena will be a grand hot pot feast, and the leader is the magical player in front of him, Stephen." This is a temporary report written by a media record at this time. His prediction is very correct, but Stephen's performance today is definitely more than that.

At this time, Isiah Thomas stood up and called a timeout. Seeing this situation, he felt that he should do something. Should he use his mysterious weapon? Jared Jeffries, who is in the game, sent him to play now, but the script I prepared allowed him to play in the second quarter. Is it a bit early to play now? It will not be easy if the opponent is prepared.

But in the end, he didn't make a substitution, but let the players on the field stay on the field. The current situation is not particularly bad, because the temporary unfavorable change is made, and the feelings of the players must also be considered. This is the case for coaches who come from players. , He understands the psychological feelings of players very well, knows what can be done and what cannot be done.
