Chapter 327: Conflict on the Field

Returning to the defensive end, Popovich still has some strength. He immediately gave up the defense in the backcourt, and the five players retreated directly to the Knicks' frontcourt.

Fordson was released directly, and small forward Sean Elliott and shooting guard Mario Eli were used to double-team Zhao Dong on the outside. General Johnson defended the madman, Robinson defended Barkley, and Duncan defended the big one.

Because Zhao Dong began to be double-teamed on the outside, the Spurs could no longer play any zone defense and directly marked man-to-man.

There is no way. If you guard Zhao Dong alone on the outside, even small forward Sean Elliott can't do it. He is too light to guard Zhao Dong. If Robinson and Duncan go out to defend, they will not be able to keep up. Then Zhao Dong will definitely break through the basket directly.

At this time, Barkley pulled from the paint area to the left wing, and then ran directly to the right bottom corner.

This gave the Spurs a headache. Fordson, who was left open, immediately entered the basket. Duncan had no choice but to let go and sit under the basket.

"Whoosh!"

Zhao Dong passed the ball to Da Zhi in the right corner.

As long as he gets the ball, no one is within four meters. The closest thing is Johnson, the madman, who is facing the three-point line on the right wing.

"Uh-huh!"

The water splashed and the three-pointer from the bottom corner was hit at a zero-degree angle.

"Look, look, the consequences of double-teaming Zhao Dong on the outside are like this. Zhao Dong's vision on the outside is not affected at all. It is much easier than being double-teamed in the low post. His weakness of insufficient height is perfectly avoided. Yes." Zhang Lili said excitedly.

Sun Zhenping smiled and said: "I think the Spurs are not as good as the Bulls on the outside. The Bulls' outside defense is much better than the Spurs."

Zhang Li said with a smile: "That's for sure. The old Bulls had Jordan and Pippen, as well as Ron Harper. They were all defensive heroes on the outside, two of them top defenders. Later, after Pippen left, there was also Jordan Together with Kidd and McGrady, they are still three powerful perimeter defenders.

It is precisely because there are so many strong perimeter defenders that the Bulls have the courage and capital to double-team Zhao Dong on the perimeter, and achieve a restrictive effect, eventually forcing Zhao Dong to leave the perimeter and go to the low post. It can be said that the Bulls' perimeter package The trap was successful, but it just didn't hit Zhao Dong in the low position.

But the Spurs, how can they have as strong a defense as the Bulls on the outside? They are strong on the inside and have no capital to defend Zhao Dong on the outside.

You see, today Zhao Dong can defeat them on the outside, whether they are double-teaming or not.

Double-teamed, I passed the ball to the wide open space, and there was Fordson under the basket who could grab rebounds. Everyone else was far away. With Fordson's rebounding ability, Duncan couldn't grab him. Without double-teaming, the young general Johnson defended Zhao Dong alone on the outside, and the results were even less impressive. "

In the TNT live broadcast booth, Bill Walton said: "14:2, the Spurs can be said to have been beaten on both ends of the offense and defense. The Knicks started with a championship momentum, without a single attack failure, and the defense was extremely successful. The end put great pressure on the Spurs. If Popovich can't come up with suitable tactics, tonight's game will be dangerous!!

The Spurs attacked and called timeout again.

"Steve, you are our well, and now I need your scoring." Popovich called Cole from the bench.

The meaning of a water well is to provide a stable water source, which means stable scoring for the team.

"Don't worry, I will, coach." Steve Kerr said confidently.

But in fact, he was not in good shape in this shortened season. He was injured, only averaged 16 minutes per game, and shot only 31% from three-point range.

Popovich asked Cole to play, but saw that Cole dared to openly confront Zhao Dong, which in his opinion was a kind of courage.

Now that the offensive end can't be opened, and leader Robinson was knocked over at the beginning, the Spurs' morale is very low. They need a warrior to step up and boost the team's morale.

He said: "It's up to you to defend that evil dragon on the outside, use all your strength, and buy half a second, and we can complete the double-team on him."

Cole nodded and said, "No problem, I can do it."

As a white man, he hated seeing a Chinese ruling this alliance. This was something he couldn't stand.

"Oh, the Spurs replaced their main shooting guard Mario Elie and replaced Steve Kerr who wanted to slay the dragon?" Bill Walton said in surprise.

"It seems that the Spurs are really going to slay the dragon!"

Matt shook his head and smiled teasingly: "It's not that I underestimate him, it's that Coach Popovich thinks highly of him."

At the beginning of the game, the Spurs attacked and served from the frontline.

This time, Robinson stopped playing in the high post and used a low-post double-tower tactic. He received the ball from the sideline, dribbled the ball, and took the opportunity to hit his elbow.

Da Zhi gritted his teeth and carried it down. When Robinson turned around and shot a jumper, he pounced to block the shot. Although there was no shot, it affected Robinson's shot.

At this time, Duncan, who was in the low post on the left wing, had already entered the basket, preparing to grab rebounds and play a second attack.

However, Fordson entered the basket earlier, seized the most advantageous position, and protected the backcourt rebound.

"Danny, here."

Zhao Dong was about to get off, and at the same time he turned around and shouted at Fordson.

On the left wing, Steve Kerr desperately returned to defense and leaned towards Zhao Dong in the center.

"Whoosh!"

Fordson threw with one hand and the ball flew towards Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong caught the ball and passed the midline. When he was near the top of the arc, Cole came up.

"squeak!"

Zhao Dong braked and slowed down, allowing Cole to rush forward, and then like a top point guard, he began to dribble continuously under the crotch, making constant changes of direction, including two turning and dribbling movements, forcing Cole to I could only retreat continuously, retreated to the basket, and then...

"The gorgeous show has begun!"

Seeing Zhao Dong's extremely skillful dribbling, Bill Walton praised him.

"oh!"

When they saw Zhao Dong forcing Cole into the reasonable collision area and then jumping up, Bill Walton and countless people couldn't help but close their eyes.

"boom!"

At the violent explosion of the basket, Cole groaned in pain and fell directly to the basket.

"If a 205cm top point guard competes with a 191cm third-rate role player at the basket, the result will be the same a hundred times, haha!"

Bill Walton laughed.

"No, even if I give Cole a thousand chances, he won't be able to guard Feilong once at the basket. Feilong is just playing with him." Matt shook his head and smiled.

Zhao Dong hung above the basket and looked coldly at Cole, who was struggling painfully at his feet, with disdain in his eyes.

Bang, he let go and landed. He stepped on Cole's legs with one foot, making Cole tremble.

Cole instantly thought of PJ Brown, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"Hey, Feilong, are you going to make the entire league's defenders have nowhere to go? Your performance just now outclassed them all."

Buckley rushed up and shouted excitedly.

"A small character like this wants to slay a dragon. Charles, what's his name?" Zhao Dong said.

"A little substitute next to Michael Jordan, who knows his name?" Barkley glanced disdainfully at Cole, who was getting up.

"china-man!"

Cole was shaking with anger, and shouted a highly racially charged word towards Zhao Dong.

"Um!"

Zhao Dong had been in this country for several years. Why didn't he understand the meaning of this word? He immediately became furious.

Even though Barkley is a superstar, he has long suffered from racial discrimination. He married a white wife, and his wife was discriminated against by his black friends and relatives.

"let me."

At this time, he stood up. For the sake of the championship, he couldn't let Zhao Dong take action.

"boom!"

But Barkley was too slow, and Zhao Dong had already slapped him. Amidst the loud slap, Cole screamed and fell to the floor spinning around.

"..."

The sudden violence stunned everyone in the audience, and then loud boos and curses broke out.

"He hit someone! He hit someone! Send him off, send him off..." Behind the baseline, local sports newspaper reporter Mai Rui jumped up excitedly.

Some of the fellow reporters nearby looked at Mai Rui with crazy eyes. Are you afraid that your brain was caught in the door?

In the finals, how could the league punish its signature star for a role player, without giving up ratings, tickets, or influence?

You see, there must be a reason for Feilong to hit someone. As long as there is a little reason, the referee is likely to send off Cole, not Feilong, just like when Reggie Miller was sent off for being beaten, leaving the player behind. Like Jordan, the league is so realistic.

"Feilong, calm down! Calm down!"

At the whistle, the referee rushed up and stood in front of Zhao Dong, otherwise he would continue to beat Cole.

"Feilong, what are you doing?"

Robinson and Duncan rushed forward, the former roaring angrily.

"If you want to fight, I will destroy you today and let you retire directly. I can accompany you in retirement. Championship and NBA, do I care?"

Zhao Dong stared at the two of them indifferently, his tone was not fierce, and his eyes were not fierce, but there was a fierceness that could not be concealed, pressing on Duncan and Robinson.

"you?"

Robinson was so angry that he was speechless.

Of course you don't care, you are a billionaire, your wife is a Wall Street boss, you bought Nike with just a few clicks, but I care! Don't be the most ruthless at every turn, okay?

"If you don't want to fight, just get away."

Zhao Dong raised his hand and pushed away Robinson who was standing in front of him. The latter was so angry that his nose was crooked, but he didn't dare to make a move.

"What are you looking at? Go down, is there a place for you to talk here?" Zhao Dong glared at Duncan again and shouted.

"..."

Duncan, who had been brutally tortured by Zhao Dong since he entered the alliance, opened his mouth and quickly bowed his head and retreated. In terms of status and qualifications, he really was not qualified to argue with Zhao Dong.

"Sir, this trash used racial slurs against Feilong. This is not allowed under any circumstances. He should be kicked out of the NBA. We will never compete in the same arena with such a person. He is He has humiliated the entire alliance, he has insulted this alliance..."

At this time, on the side, Barkley was explaining what just happened to the referee and expressing his opinion with a very tough attitude.

"racism?"

The referee looked solemn.

Zhao Dong is the signature of the league, and the only signature after Jordan retired. He also has a Wall Street background. Now he has been racially discriminated against during the game. This is not a trivial matter. He couldn't help but turn around and glance at the people on the floor who had not gotten up. Cole, his eyes were cold.

At the same time, Robinson and Duncan were also stunned and looked at Cole on the floor. Idiot, aren't you usually very smart? How dare you blatantly use racist words against the league's brand?

The penalty was very simple. Steve Kerr, who was slapped on the face by Zhao Dong, was ejected by the referee on the spot.

As for Zhao Dong, nothing happened.

"Why?"

Mai Rui said he didn't understand and was very angry, but there was nothing he could do.

"Shh!"

Seeing that the beaten Zhao Dong was okay, but the beaten Cole was sent off, the whole audience booed, and even shouts of "black whistle" came and went, and a lot of debris was thrown on the court.

"Are you crazy?"

Popovich roared at the referee.

"If you want to go out too, I can let you out," the referee said coldly, staring at Popovich.

"Greg..."

Robinson quickly ran to Popovich, pulled him back, and explained a few words.

"This damn idiot, I don't even dare to discriminate against that dragon, how dare he? He can't even distinguish the occasion or the object of discrimination?"

After Popovich figured out what happened, he was so angry that he couldn't help but cursed.

At the TNT live broadcast, Bill Walton contacted the director through the headset. The director had already learned some of the reasons for what happened from the TNT reporters on the scene.

"This is really incredible. Steve Kerr has established himself as a dragon-slaying warrior. There is no problem. He has gained some attention and support, but what happened just now, he will let himself fall into hell." He’s finished!”

Bill Walton shook his head.

Matt said seriously: "I bet that he is finished, but Feilong will never give up until this matter is over."

Bill Walton said: "Think about last year in London, because of Jordan's words, Nike was acquired by the Storm, and now what Kerr said is even more extreme. The Spurs and Kerr are ready to welcome the storm funds and Mrs. Lindsay. Be angry.”

Matt reminded: "All Spurs sponsors, including SBC Telecom Group, the title sponsor of this arena, you should be careful, maybe the anger from the storm will be vented on you. This is called a fire in the city gate in China, and it will affect Chiyu. .”

At this time, Bill Walton suddenly smiled and said: "I also want to remind Nike that you are one of the Spurs' sponsors, and Tim Duncan is also your sponsored player."

"Ha ha……"

Matt was startled and suddenly burst into laughter.

At this time, the game restarted, and the Spurs replaced the main shooting guard Mario Eli.

The referee gave a second-level flagrant foul, and the Knicks made two free throws.

Zhao Dong made two free throws, and then the Knicks attacked.

The madman served from the baseline, and Zhao Dong received the ball and immediately advanced quickly.

Young general Johnson tried to stop him, but Zhao Dong suddenly turned around and passed him, one step ahead of him, and headed towards the left wing of the frontcourt.

"Block him!"

Popovich roared from the sidelines.

Shooting guard Mario Eli came out to cover the defense, and young general Johnson double-teamed him from behind. At this time, Zhao Dong suddenly changed direction to the middle, shook off the two-man double-team, and headed towards the left elbow from the top left position of the arc. .

Duncan could only come out from the basket to cover, and Robinson on the right line of the paint area could only leave Barkley behind to cover the basket.

Facing Duncan's defense, Zhao Dong suddenly threw the ball over the former's head.

"What?"

Duncan turned back quickly.

But at this moment, Zhao Dong rushed in from him, and the basketball flew up against the rebound of the board.

"Throw yourself and buckle!"

Seeing this, Bill Walton was so excited that he shouted instantly.

Zhao Dong flew up, grabbed the rebounding basketball with his right hand, and flew towards the basket, meeting Robinson who had just returned to the basket.

"boom!"

As the violent explosion of the basket sounded, Robinson, who flew to block the shot, turned over in response. His feet tilted when he landed, and then he fell to the floor.

"Oh, damn, the admiral was dunked again!" the on-site commentator's frustrated and angry voice sounded.

"Beautiful! Zhao Dong came up with a self-throw and dunk. He successfully dunked Admiral David Robinson, one of the four super centers, and dunked him..." Zhang Lili roared excitedly.

"Look, Coach Zhang, Robinson seems to be unable to get up! He is covering his left foot with his hand." Sun Zhenping suddenly shouted.

"Huh, is that true? It's your ankle. It should have sprained when you landed on the ground." Zhang Lili said.

In the TNT live broadcast booth, Bill Walton shook his head and said: "20:2, the Spurs have been completely beaten. Now Robinson is injured, there is no suspense in this game."

Matt added: "Actually, since Feilong stepped into the No. 1 position, the Spurs could not provide enough perimeter defense, and there was no suspense in this game from beginning to end."

On the sidelines, Popovich stood dumbly, and the Twin Towers were injured. How could the remaining Duncan be the Knicks' opponent?

Soon, Robinson came off the field. It was true that his left ankle was injured. Although it was not serious, he would definitely not be able to play this game.

"Coach, I can still play."

Robinson didn't want to give up. This was the finals. If he could win this game, he would lead the Knicks by a big score of 2 to 1, and then there would be a home court. He absolutely couldn't give up.

"How to fight? That evil dragon will definitely go towards you, and you won't be able to survive it." Popovich shook his head in disappointment.

Moreover, we are now trailing by a huge score of 2 to 20. Even if Robinson is not injured, it will be difficult to win this game.

"Okay, the Spurs gave up the game, and Duncan, who had not scored a point, was replaced." Bill Walton said after seeing the Spurs players on the court.

Matt shook his head and said: "The same is true in the G1 game. Coach Popovich made decisive substitutions. Once he couldn't win, he immediately replaced the main players.

In this way, Feilong will also go down, and the ratings of the finals will be affected. It will be seriously affected, and the league will not be happy. "
