Chapter 135 The Temptation of Data

The trouble came as soon as the second quarter started, and the 76ers stepped up their defense.

Morris Cheeks secretly contributed to the process of replacing Iverson.

In the final analysis, it is because Iverson's behavior of basically not defending and relying on gambling steals to win the steals king is too different from his basketball philosophy.

No one knows what role he played in the 76ers' trade for Iverson.

But one thing is for sure, that is, after losing Iverson, the 76ers certainly suffered a big blow on offense.But the overall defense has risen by more than one level.

The eclipse was quite eye-catching in the first quarter, but when he faced Iguodala who was fully defending in the second quarter, he immediately became at a loss.

The lunar eclipse who was holding the ball in front of him was just about to pull up and take off, but the ball was stolen by Iguodala.

Immediately afterwards, Brother Yi made a long pass from a long distance, and the ball reached Willie Green at the far end, who scored an easy layup.

Then the lunar eclipse hit the iron twice again, and Ruan Erniu had to take over the ball from him in time.Just kidding, if the game continues like this, the suspense of the outcome of the game will become even greater.

The Hawks' offensive end was mired in a quagmire, but someone from the 76ers stood up on the offensive end.

Willie Green, who was almost invisible in the first quarter, suddenly went into a rage when Jon Jonson was resting.He hit consecutive long-range jumpers one step inside the three-point line.

Then, with the pick-and-roll of Jason Smith who just played, he broke through the inside and succeeded.

After playing a lot of games, Er Niu gradually understood a truth: any fringe player in the NBA should not be underestimated, and no one knows whether they will break out at a specific point in time.

For example, the 213cm white center Jason Smith in front of him, this guy actually belonged to the 07 class of Er Niu, but Er Niu had no influence on this person at all.

A player with such a weak sense of presence, at a critical moment, contributed to the 76ers chasing points.This is the charm of the top basketball league, there are always surprising players who can stand up.

If it is said, Willy Green became a sharp weapon for chasing points in the second quarter.Kyle Korver, who was substituted midway through the second quarter, was a surprise thrower.

This white shooter with a hairstyle quite similar to that of Jay Chou hit two consecutive three-pointers from beyond the 3-point line as soon as he came on the court.

The score was overtaken in an instant.

How could Ruan Erniu allow the trend of the game to fall to the opponent?

He immediately took a position in the low post, facing tall white big man Jason Smith.Ruan Erniu savagely opened a path and attacked the home team's basket.

Facing the 76ers' offensive, Er Niu just solidly caused kills in the paint again and again, or directly scored points.

Although the 76ers took the top spot on the scene, but looking back at the score, they will immediately feel discouraged.

They attacked so hard, but in the end, they were still behind their opponents.

In fact, this is not surprising. From the beginning to the end, when Ruan Erniu was on the field, the rebounding advantage was always in the hands of the visiting team.

No matter how high the 76ers' shooting rate is, there is no chance for a second attack, and they often give the opponent a second chance to score, so the final score is not difficult to predict.

At 23:29, the 76ers recovered 6 points in a single quarter.

At the end of the first half, at 52:46, the Atlanta Hawks in the away game finally entered the intermission with a 6-point advantage.

Ruan Erniu was stopped again. This time, the reporter who interviewed him was Molly Sullivan, a beautiful reporter from Philadelphia-based CSN (that is, the sports channel that undertook the NCAA Finals, which is translated as Comcast Sports Network in Chinese). interview.

"Hello, Kraft. What do you think was the reason the Eagles took the lead in the first half?"

"We played more focused in the first quarter, and the 76ers performed better in the second quarter, but we withstood the pressure."

"In the second half, will you still be the Hawks' main offensive point?"

"Of course, as long as Mike needs, I will contribute to the team at any time."

"The last question, are you dissatisfied with not being the best player in the Eastern Conference in November? After all, your data is far better than Howard!"

"I don't know. It should be asked to the managers of the league. It's not something I can decide."

"Okay, thanks for the interview and good luck for the second half!"

"Thank you!"

Afterwards, Ruan Erniu trotted all the way back to the locker room.

In the locker room, he naturally accepted the group ridicule from his teammates, after all, he had just communicated with a hot girl.

Ruan Erniu retorted: "Can I still play tricks in public?"

Lunar Eclipse put his shoulders on Er Niu's shoulders, and shouted from the side: "So, if there is no one around, something will happen to you and that Miss Sullivan?"

Ruan Erniu gave this guy a sideways look, and finally gave up the idea of ​​arguing with this incomprehensible guy.The logic of thinking is not on the same frequency, so it is useless to talk about it.

After the first half of the game, Ruan Erniu's personal data was fixed at 26 points, 15 rebounds, and 2 assists.Among them, in the second quarter, he scored 19 points in a single quarter, setting his own scoring record in a single quarter.

After the start of the second half, the Hawks, who had adapted to the strength of the 76ers' defense, finally started to counterattack.

And the failure to knock down the visiting team in the second quarter is definitely not good news for the 76ers.

Sure enough, Jon Jonsen fired first, and Willie Green took advantage of his absence to score wildly.囧囧sen will avenge this revenge today.

After playing with the opponent with skillful tentative steps, he sent the ball into the basket, and also caused a foul by the opponent, scoring 2+1.

Marvin Williams came out second.Facing the defense of Reggie Evans, Marvin also slapped the opponent in the middle distance like flying a kite.

He used his footsteps to score layups many times. Today's young master of North Carolina has proved with his own strength that a tough guy in North Carolina will not lose to an idiot.

In the end, even the Eclipse guy went crazy.He made consecutive high-post hits, and successfully cut to the basket, making a difficult layup in the air.Even a player with the best physical fitness like Brother Yi can only look at the ball and sigh.

Ruan Erniu scored 4 points in this quarter only by picking up leaks at the basket. His teammates are so good, he naturally and happily picked up rebounds and assists.

But when he was resting, Woodson suddenly stopped him and said, "Kraft, do you want to play a few more minutes in the fourth quarter?"

Ruan Erniu didn't understand, so he said, "Why? Isn't the game already in garbage time?"

Larry Drew reminded from the side: "That's right! But, don't you pay attention to your own statistics?"

Ruan Erniu turned his gaze to the screen, and even he was surprised when he saw it.Because he broke his own single-quarter rebound data in the third quarter, he scored 13 rebounds in a single quarter.

Now Ruan Erniu's data is 30 points, 28 rebounds, and 6 assists.As long as Ruan Erniu plays two more rebounds in the fourth quarter, he will definitely become the record holder of 30+30, which is another statistic that can only be accomplished by an ancient giant.

After thinking for a while, Ruan Erniu said kindly, "Okay, then just replace me and play for 2 minutes at the beginning of the fourth quarter."

At the end of the three quarters, at 79:64, the Hawks led by 15 points.Under normal circumstances, this score can still send the main players to play.

But if the Hawks' bench lineup is too strong and the game is wasted at the beginning of the last quarter, the playing time of the two bulls will become a problem.

Therefore, Ruan Erniu said that he would play at the beginning of the fourth quarter, which was undoubtedly the correct choice.
