Chapter 382 Stop the McGrady Moment!
Although the young Xie Chen was a bit invincible against the old Mutombo, Xie Chen couldn't help but use Mutombo's signature "finger wagging". Of course, he didn't mean to look down on the other party. Xie Chen just wants Mutombo to know that he doesn't need to wait ten years to get under the basket, and I can get in as soon as I want.
"Imitating Jordan shaking his fingers, this guy is really crazy." McGrady next to him was a little bit aggrieved for the veteran.
Speaking of which, McGrady's performance today was not very eye-catching, he didn't take too many shots, and he didn't score too many points. Maybe he hasn't found a way to play in this new team, and the cooperation with Yao Ming is not too much. tacit agreement.
The atmosphere in the arena was also a little dead, especially after Xie Chen dunked the basket, the fans were all disappointed. The seats were not full, and now, one or two more fans got up and walked away.
Fortunately, the other role players of the Rockets played very seriously and focused, and basically did not make any mistakes. Although the Rockets have been behind the score and have been unable to catch up, they did not let the score further increase and have been able to maintain it. Xie Chen I felt that winning this team should be sure, so I didn't think about further increasing the score.
Gradually, the little giant Yao Ming began to recover. He played singles against Lopez many times and succeeded in small hooks many times. Yao Ming is really too tall, and he has a good shot. hold him.
Seeing that the legendary Rockets were relying on Yao Ming to catch up with the score, Xie Chen was a little anxious. He suddenly thought that Kobe had sneaked in from the baseline when Yao Ming was not paying attention in singles, and gave Yao Ming a big cap. Why didn't he follow suit?
When Yao Ming hit Lopez with his back again, Lopez gradually couldn't resist. The moment Yao Ming turned over and made a jumper, Xie Chen quickly rushed in from the baseline, and facing Yao Ming was a big hat after he leaped hard!
Xie Chen's rhythm was very accurate, the moment of take-off happened to be the moment when Yao Ming shot!
Being of the same yellow race, Xie Chen also appreciates Yao Ming's hard work and knows how hard it is to survive in the NBA. Xie Chen did not forget to comfort him after the cover: "Don't mind."
Xie Chen has never partnered with a bad insider, but he has also never partnered with a very good insider, especially a center like Yao Ming O'Neal. Sometimes Xie Chen thinks, if Xie Chen is really given an insider like him, the game will start. Is it much simpler?
The Knicks have been suppressing the legendary Rockets. Xie Chen, Yao Ming, and Tracy McGrady chat with each other from time to time, looking very relaxed. It seems that this legendary challenge will be easily completed.
Gradually, there were only two and a half minutes left in the game. The Knicks led the legendary Rockets 73 to 64. Neither Yao Ming nor Tracy McGrady's statistics were too eye-catching. Plus 8 rebounds and 5 assists, this is really not good for them at their peak.
Seeing that the game was about to become garbage time, the fans in the Toyota Center Arena also got up and left one after another.
"Huh... There are two minutes left, and the Legendary Challenge is over, and I have to challenge Harden and the others, so tired..." Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief, hoping to seize the rare opportunity of garbage time to relax.
The legendary Rockets attacked again. The Knicks gave them three chances in a row. Their shots all missed the frame. Xie Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. There was only 1 minute and 40 seconds left. It takes time outside the line, and everything is going according to Xie Chen's expectations.
With only one minute left, the Rockets still didn't score, and at this time, Lopez caused a foul by Yao Ming, making two free throws and one, 74 to 64, already leading by 10 points.
At this time, McGrady, who looked sleepy and had no desire to attack the whole game, was finally going to give it a go. He still had a smart and smart pace. He turned around and went straight for a layup. The movement was very handsome, but unfortunately, he still did not make progress. , but the tall Yao Ming grabbed the rebound under the basket and immediately dunked it.
74 to 66, the legendary Rockets are still struggling.
But at this time, the legendary Rockets began to press the whole court. When passing the ball in the backcourt, the Knicks made a mistake and were intercepted by the opponent. It only took two seconds to catch up with two points. Of course, the overall situation It's decided that the entire Knicks team didn't take this mistake seriously, and so did Xie Chen. However, he suddenly felt, why did he seem to have seen this scene before?
The game was still going on, Xie Chen didn't have time to think about it, someone just broke one, so he should pay more attention to this ball.
When the Knicks were about to serve again, the legendary Rockets called a timeout. During the timeout, Xie Chen kept stroking his beard and thinking about it. Anthony squeezed Xie Chen's shoulder and said with a smile, "What are you thinking? Why are you so sad?" Look, we've won this match."
Xie Chen also smiled. There are only 47 seconds left, and it seems that the Rockets have no chance.
After the timeout ended, Xie Chen made another foul and made two free throws, continuing to expand the score.
At this time, the basketball was completely in the hands of McGrady. He started to dribble from the backcourt, and he didn't seem to see anyone in his eyes. When he came to the three-point line, he pulled up facing Anthony and shot! The shot is very decisive!
Three-pointer!
Xie Chen was startled suddenly, and glanced at the remaining time, it happened to be 35 seconds!
"35 seconds and 13 minutes! McGrady's moment!" Xie Chen immediately thought of McGrady's most famous battle. No wonder those moments just now felt so familiar. Could it be that what Xie Chen encountered was really the day of McGrady's moment?
The system will not randomly choose a team as an opponent. Xie Chen has never felt that there is anything worth challenging from the beginning until now. Could it be that the challenge started at this moment?
Xie Chen hurried to the sidelines and asked the staff next to him loudly, "What date is it today?"
Xie Chen soon got the answer: December 10, 2004!
Xie Chen was shocked, it really was this day, this day was the day when McGrady's moment was staged back then!
"Could it be that I want to copy the tragedy of the Spurs?" Xie Chen couldn't help feeling a little flustered, but thinking about it carefully, the Spurs lost at the time because they didn't know that McGrady could make so many three-pointers, but now Xie Chen knows that McGrady can Hitting three-pointers in a row, since you know it in advance, you can stop him in advance!
"I actually have a chance to prevent a great moment in history from happening!" Xie Chen instantly changed from the previous panic to the current excitement!
There are many great performances in NBA history, such as Kobe Bryant’s 81 points in a single game, McGrady’s moment, and Thompson’s 37 points in a single quarter. In the past, Xie Chen could only admire the performances of these great stars from the video. Be there for yourself and have a chance to stop their great moments from happening!
Xie Chen looked at Mai Di who seemed to have woken up, and secretly said in his heart: "I want to stop Mai Di!"
The Knicks served the ball, Xie Chen quickly received the pass, and was fouled by the opponent as soon as he received it. It was exactly the same as the game between the Rockets and the Spurs at that time. Xie Chen personally made free throws and made two free throws!
77 to 71!
Xie Chen knew that McGrady would hold the ball in the next attack, so when the other Knicks returned to defense, Xie Chen rushed to the bottom line to block McGrady alone!
McGrady couldn't help being surprised. He didn't expect Xie Chen to defend close to him in this position, and even tried to steal. Although Xie Chen's stealing ability is good, it is quite difficult to easily stop McGrady's dribble. McGrady is unlucky. He got rid of Xie Chen lightly, didn't pass the ball, and relied on his physical advantage to hold the ball all the way through the half.
Just after halftime, Xie Chen saw Yao Ming coming up to pick and roll for McGrady. If Xie Chen remembers correctly, McGrady used Yao Ming's pick and roll to make a long shot from outside the three-point line and hit a life-saving three-pointer again. point!
Xie Chen was a little flustered, how can I stop him?
"Two-team! Come here and double-team!" Xie Chen yelled at his teammates, but unfortunately, the teammates were stunned for a moment and didn't go over.
McGrady moved very quickly, taking advantage of Yao Ming's pick-and-roll to the right, and was about to shoot a three-pointer. Lopez, who was following Yao Ming, saw that McGrady was about to make another shot, stepped forward, stretched out his arms, Trying to cover!
"Oops!" Xie Chen thought of McGrady's 3+1 goal when he fouled Duncan!
Because of Yao Ming's pick and roll, Xie Chen was completely blocked by Yao Ming, and he couldn't cover McGrady even if he wanted to, but he didn't want to cover McGrady at this time, and his height couldn't cover him. One thing he has to do now is to stop himself Teammates to block McGrady!
McGrady can make another three-pointer, but McGrady must not be allowed to hit 3+1! Otherwise, the Knicks will not escape the tragedy of the Spurs, and will be killed in the next one!
Seeing that Lopez's arm is getting closer and closer to McGrady, according to the past plot, McGrady will shake the opponent, and then, in the case of a foul, shoot it again. Xie Chen will not give McGrady a 3+1 Chance!
At the critical moment, Xie Chen did something that no NBA player had ever done before, pushing his teammates down!
Xie Chen was very close to Lopez, so he pushed Lopez to the left from behind. McGrady was slightly stunned, but soon continued to shoot, a three-pointer, and hit it again!
The Toyota Center arena is gradually boiling up!
"Well done, TMAC! Come on! There will be a miracle tonight!"
"What was the opponent's No. 0 doing just now? Haha, he actually pushed down the center forward who was going to block McGrady? Isn't he the undercover agent we sent out?"
"Hahaha, I've never seen him prevent his teammates from defending. It seems that his position in the team will not be too stable."
Xie Chen's move was really surprising, so no one understood why he did this, especially Lopez!
Lopez got up and asked Xie Chen to reason: "What are you doing! Why are you pushing me! Which side are you on?"
Xie Chen bet that Lopez also knew about McGrady's moment, but Lopez has been completely systemized, so Lopez at this time will not remember these things, and it is difficult for Xie Chen to explain to him, he can only say : "You went over to block the shot just now, and you will give him a 3+1 chance, and we will be killed because of this!"
Lopez was furious: "Are you crazy? Is 3+1 so easy to score? You would rather believe that he can complete such a difficult goal on my head than believe that I can defend him? We will be beaten Lore? Look at the score, who is leading now, look at the seconds left in the game!"
With 24 seconds left in the game, the score was four points short, but in real history, the score at this time was three points short.
Soon there was another timeout. On the players' bench, the coach comforted Lopez. Xie Chen was too lazy to communicate with this systemized character. It was useless to waste words. Now the most important thing is, How to stop McGrady next?
"At this moment, McGrady is like a god, and no one can stop him. The three-pointer is like a god, and he can make it no matter how he shoots, so I have to attack in advance."
Anyone who has seen McGrady's moment knows that McGrady was amazing at that time, but Xie Chen suddenly thought of another question: "Do I... want to copy McGrady's three-point skills?"
Now Xie Chen has a new copy permission, and although Curry's three-point skills are good, but the shooting point is too low, it is easy to be blocked, Xie Chen will also copy the new three-point ability sooner or later, although Xie Chen has always liked it The most important thing is Kobe's three-pointer, but McGrady's is not bad, especially today's McGrady!
"Peak McGrady's strength is not much worse than any star, and he has performed miracles with consecutive three-pointers. Why can't I copy his three-pointer ability?"
Seeing McGrady's overbearing three-pointers with his own eyes, especially the shooting percentage at critical moments, Xie Chen couldn't help but be moved. He was going to copy McGrady's three-pointers!
It can be copied, that is to say, for the next goal, McGrady has to score!
"Hehe, the current McGrady, even if you don't want him to enter, can you do it?" Xie Chen smiled bitterly. Fortunately, the current situation is different from history. Even if McGrady still hits three-pointers in a row, he can only tie. , can not lore.
After the timeout, the Knicks began to pass the ball to delay time, but in the end they were fouled when they passed it to Lopez, and Lopez walked to the free throw line to make a free throw.
Unexpectedly, the first free throw was missed!
"Damn it! How could this happen!" Xie Chen's face immediately turned green. In that McGrady moment, at this time, it was Duncan's free throw, and Duncan's free throw was two free throws. Unexpectedly, it was replaced by Lopez. , The plot actually changed!
Lopez finally hit the second free throw, but the current situation is the same as the previous McGrady moment. The legendary Rockets are 5 points behind, and McGrady hits two more three-pointers, which can still kill them!
Xie Chen panicked: "Could it be that I still can't escape the fate of being reversed by McGrady all the time?"
80:75, the legendary Rockets attack.
The Rockets made a throw-in, and Xie Chen and Anthony bothered McGrady. Since they knew that McGrady would perform a miracle next, they would not leave him an inch.
In the end, McGrady rushed out to catch the ball, and it was very difficult to catch the ball. After receiving the ball, he quickly rushed to the right three-point line. Facing the double-teaming of Xie Chen and Anthony, Forcibly shot!
"Congratulations, Tracy McGrady's three-point skills have been successfully replicated!"
