NBA: Crazy Little Giant

Chapter 142

The Celtics attacked.

With the help of Al Horford's pick-and-roll, Thomas stepped on the accelerator and broke through to the basket.

Westbrook squeezed through the pick-and-roll and chased Thomas.

Thomas braked suddenly, leaned his back against Westbrook, and used the reaction force to throw the basketball into the basket.

Thomas fell to the ground.

""Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle.

Westbrook committed a defensive foul! In the 16-17 season, such fouls were common.

Looking at the basketball still rising, Chen Cheng jumped up to avoid being hit 2+1 by him and grabbed it directly.

This ball caused the fans at the Celtics home court to exclaim.

In this game, the cutest height difference between active NBA players.

Chen Cheng, 226cm!

Thomas, 175cm!.......

"Swish!"

""Swish!"

Thomas made both free throws!

A player with a height of 175cm can gain a foothold in the NBA and become the team's main scorer. It can be said that he has almost no shortcomings except for his height.......

The Thunder attacked.

The Celtics' fast defensive rotation caused Chen Cheng to be double-teamed as soon as he received the ball.

Chen Cheng also tried to pass the ball!

But the Celtics' rotation speed was too fast!

In addition, Chen Cheng's passing ability was not good.

It was difficult for other players of the Thunder to get a large open space!

But...

The Thunder team has a"Fear of Shooting Award".

After Chen Cheng called out"Thirteen Yao", as long as there is a little space, the Thunder players will shoot without thinking....

This is the Thunder's secret code!

Once Chen Cheng calls out"Thirteen Yao", it means that the team will execute the"One Star Four Shoots" tactic.

Westbrook, who received the pass, directly shot a three-pointer.

Chen Cheng, who was under the basket, made a counter-attack and threw Al Horford behind him. Horford was thrown out by Chen Cheng.

But just when Chen Cheng grabbed the rebound.

The whistle sounded!

""Ding!"

Chen Cheng was confused and was called for a rebounding foul by the referee.

For a moment, the Celtics' home stadium was filled with applause.

"Did I commit a foul?" Chen Cheng asked

"When you were grabbing the rebound, you raised your elbow!" the referee explained.

"Elbow?"

Chen Cheng was so angry that he laughed.

He was about to rush to the referee and say something, but was stopped by Westbrook and Oladipo.

"Chen! Calm down!"

"Chen! Calm down!

Chen Cheng stopped arguing after being persuaded by his teammates.......

5 minutes and 21 seconds into the first quarter.

Oladipo received a pass from Chen Cheng.

He took a three-point shot!

Defensive player Brandley flew out.

"Ding!" Oladipo missed the three- pointer.

Fight for the rebound!

Chen Cheng under the basket carried Horford in one hand and Amir Johnson who was rushing over in the other hand.

The two men seemed to be hanging on Chen Cheng.

After the rebound fell into Chen Cheng's area!

Chen Cheng suddenly broke free from the two men,"Snap!", and took the rebound.

Then, he made a fake shot under the basket!

But Al Horford, who was a blind ball detector and experienced in defense, did not jump up, but tried to lean on Chen Cheng as much as possible, not giving Chen Cheng a comfortable shooting space.

With this kind of defense, Chen Cheng can score if he can!

If he can't score, he can still grab the rebound in the shortest time!

Chen Cheng pushed Al Horford hard, and the moment he pushed him away, he directly jumped up.

At this time, in addition to Johnson jumping up to block the shot under the basket, there was also Jae Crowder who flew over.

The two hit Chen Cheng almost at the same time, and even hung on Chen Cheng's arm!

Destroyed Chen Cheng's dunk!

But what annoyed Chen Cheng was that the referee didn't blow the whistle.

After the floor ball was picked up by Thomas, he launched a fast break.

Chen Cheng, who was angry and embarrassed, rushed directly to the referee to argue with him.

Facing Chen Cheng, who was 226cm and 139kg and came with anger, the white referee instinctively took a step back.

"tomato!"

"Didn’t you see it just now!"

"Such an obvious foul!"

Chen Cheng was not in a good mood, and he spoke directly

""Beep!"

The NBA has zero tolerance, so Chen Cheng was given a technical foul.

However, although Chen Cheng was calm most of the time, not like a rookie, but like an old basketball player, the continuous black whistles made the young and energetic Chen Cheng a little out of control.

Seeing this, his teammates rushed over!

Oladipo and Westbrook each grabbed one of Chen Cheng's arms.

The strong Aquaman Adams even hugged Chen Cheng.

Robertson blocked himself between Chen Cheng and the referee, and kept explaining to the referee.......

Chen Cheng received a technical foul!

Adding the previous foul!

Chen Cheng had 2 fouls in total! He received 2 fouls before the first quarter was even halfway through.

Seeing Chen Cheng, who was furious, Thunder coach Billy Donovan asked him to calm down on the bench. At the same time, he asked the veteran Luis Scola to do some ideological work for Chen Cheng.

"Chen, basketball is fair!"

"You must believe this!"

Luis Scola counseled Chen Cheng.

He also told Chen Cheng that in the playoffs, there would be more obvious fouls that would not be called. Instead of complaining about the referee, it would be better to think about how to fight back.

Chen Cheng was an extremely cunning hunter and soon calmed down.......

The second quarter begins.

The Thunder is 21vs32, 11 points behind the Celtics.

Chen Cheng is the defensive pillar of the Thunder. For example, Robertson's behind-the-back defense is based on Chen Cheng's strong frame protection.

Once Chen Cheng goes down, Aquaman can't keep up with Horford.

It's not that Horford is much faster than Aquaman, but Horford has a variety of offensive means and can open up space.

Fortunately, Westbrook's defense and mid-range shots are all online tonight, except for three-pointers, otherwise the score difference will be even greater.

Other players of the Thunder, such as Robertson, Oladipo, Aquaman and PJ Tucker, have three-point shooting ability, but they are all fixed-point three-pointers.

When encountering a team with fast defensive rotations and without the bonus of Chen Cheng's [Magic of the Giant], the three-point shooting ability is basically sealed.......

Chen Cheng came on the court. The Celtics were booed.

After calming down, Chen Cheng smiled again and put his left hand to his ear to listen.

The Celtics attacked.

Thomas found another opportunity to call out Chen Cheng through a series of pick-and-rolls.

Thomas was too short!

It was a bit difficult for Chen Cheng to catch him!

Thomas pretended to break through, slipped to the three-second zone, and then suddenly retreated and ran outside the three-point line.

Chen Cheng quickly chased after him.

Suddenly, Claude cut inside!

Thomas made a ground pass!

""Snap!"

Chen Cheng's big hand appeared like a phantom, blocking the passing route and grabbing the ball with one hand.

This shot surprised Thomas.

The big guy's reaction was too fast! The

Thunder team fast break!

Westbrook quickly advanced with the ball, and Claude saw that he couldn't catch up, so he was pulled down by a tactical foul........

The Thunder have the ball.

It's still the"Thirteen Yao" one-star four-shooting tactic.

But this time, Chen Cheng and Westbrook are the first to set the pick-and-roll.

Chen Cheng rushes down!

He blocks the favorable rebounding position!

Westbrook's zombie jump shot!

Hit!.......

In the second quarter of the game,

Westbrook scored points one after another.

But the Celtics' defense against Westbrook was still single defense.

The focus was on double-teaming Chen Cheng.

Soon, the team coach Billy Donovan also noticed something was wrong.

Westbrook's mid-range shots were particularly accurate tonight! But if only Westbrook scored, the team obviously couldn't win.

If you want to revitalize the team, you must create damage under the basket........

4 minutes and 21 seconds in the second quarter.

Chen Cheng came on the court again.

Due to the crazy double-teaming in the low post, his teammates have not opened up their three-pointers tonight.

The Thunder replaced Andre Robertson with the sniper king Bojan Bodanovic.

PJ Tucker replaced Aquaman Adams.

Enhance the team's mobility and space.

Chen Cheng held the ball in the high post. Since Chen Cheng's mid-range shots were accurate in recent games, Al Horford had to stick close to him.

No way!

Chen Cheng is not a so-called short center. He can control the shot and slightly limit the breakthrough by expanding half his body.

Chen Cheng's height of 226cm is a little far away, which is not much different from an open shot with no one defending.

As a floor-flowing center, Chen Cheng only uses the mid-range as a punishment weapon. His main way of scoring is to force the basket.

Chen Cheng starts!

After his explosive power increased, his first step is faster.

Although Al Horford is experienced and predicted the direction of Chen Cheng's breakthrough in advance, he was squeezed out by Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng rushed in!

He took two steps and then took three big steps!

Al Horford, Crowder, and Amir Johnson rushed to Chen Cheng's back at the same time. They once again forcibly destroyed Chen Cheng's layup and sent him to the free throw line.

This time the referee blew a normal defensive foul!

Chen Cheng, who was very resistant to injuries, did not feel any harm and was about to take a free throw.

At this time, the team coach Billy Donovan, holding the tactical board in his hand, angrily argued with the referee,"Let's talk about reason!"

"wtf!"

"How much black money did you receive?"

"Are you blind?"

"For such a big action, is it just called a normal foul?"

"tomato!"......

The referee gave Billy Donovan a second-level technical foul and sent him off the court.

The security guards on the sidelines quickly ran over.

Billy Donovan was still pointing at the referee's nose and cursing!

Chen Cheng and others also hurried over.

Veteran Luis Scola came over with a frown and first stopped coach Billy Donovan.

Then, he also pointed at the referee's nose and started to curse.

"this..."

Chen Cheng saw that the veteran and the head coach who had persuaded him to calm down earlier were now extremely angry and scolded the referee. They were given a second-level technical foul and were ejected.

This made Chen Cheng very upset!

The two people who were ejected did not forget to count money to the referee........

After the farce, the Thunder's bench was no longer staffed by a head coach.

They also lost a mild-tempered veteran.

Chen Cheng first took a free throw!

After he made both free throws, the opponent took a technical free throw!

After the free throws, the Celtics still had the ball........

The king of the final quarter, Thomas, received the pass from his teammate outside the three-point line and suddenly shot a cold arrow, hitting another three-pointer.

The score difference was widened to 15 points again.

The Thunder attacked.

Westbrook, with anger, accelerated after the pick-and-roll, faced Al Horford's rim protection, and picked the ball in after an aerial confrontation. On the defensive end!

Chen Cheng, who gradually adapted to Thomas's rhythm, directly blocked his small-to-big play!

Oladipo got the rebound and passed it to Westbrook.

Westbrook started to push the fast break!

The Celtics' defense returned very quickly!

Chen Cheng was the last one to cross half court.

After crossing half court, he gave Bojan Bodanovic an off-ball pick-and-roll, and then suddenly cut into the basket. Westbrook passed the ball without looking at anyone and passed it to Chen Cheng.

After Chen Cheng got the ball!

He was holding back his anger! He just dribbled one step!

""Swish!" The whole person jumped up.

Al Horford's defense was a little slow!

But after seeing Chen Cheng slightly pulling the bow in the air, Horford dodged!

It's not that he didn't dare to stop him!

But there was no need!

""Boom!"

A thunderous sound resounded throughout the Celtics' home stadium!

Then!

After Chen Cheng dunked, he made a hanging basket and sank.

""Bang!"
