Chapter 87
Chapter 85 : That’s the truth, Cameron
When Anthony hits a three-pointer with a defensive shot from outside the three-point line, the red light on the Pepsi Center rebounds also shines. The second quarter of the game officially ended, Anthony scored a difficult buzzer. But no matter whether it is a Nuggets fan or a player, none of them is excited by the appearance of the buzzer.
After Anthony made that three-pointer, the Nuggets are still behind, and they are still behind the Mavericks by ten points. Since Yiyang fell to the ground to pounce and assisted Terry to complete the offense, the tenth gap has never changed.
Anthony walked down the court in a loss, although he has worked hard enough, but look at Crazy Karl’s expression. After returning to the locker room after a while, “Little Melon” must have been scolded.
Sometimes, Anthony really wants to get rid of this seriousness, and greets your family coach at every turn. He once thought about a transfer. In fact, the Nuggets and Anthony teams have been in contact with other teams. After all, how can such a team that can’t even beat the Mavericks deal with the Big Three of the Heat led by James?
Anthony shook his head. It seems that it is not the time to think about these things. The son of the Nuggets, who was smiling less and less, walked slowly to the locker room. George Carl’s anger? Anyway, for so many years, I am used to it…
After the start of the third quarter, Carlisle continued to change. Yiyang and Terry, the two defenders who made the lead in the Mavericks’ lead time, were pushed on the bench, while Kidd and Jose Barea continued to play together.
The Mavericks’ backcourt lineup is so deep that Nuggets fans are only envious. Even if they change players, the strength of the backcourt will not drop too much.
Compared with the first half, the rhythm of the game in the third quarter was much slower. The Nuggets players seem to have lost their fighting spirit one by one, and the Mavericks have maintained a steady gap under the leadership of Kidd.
George Karl kept yelling from the sidelines, he seemed to be the only guy in the Nuggets who still has passion. But his passion and anger have never been able to ignite the Nuggets.
In this way, the 12 minutes of the third quarter ended quickly. The Nuggets are still behind, although the trailing point difference has become 9. But in fact, the situation has not changed in any way.
“You are the same as a bunch of idiots! Huh…cough cough cough…” Sure enough, during the break, Crazy Karl’s roar resounded through the entire Pepsi Center. . But this time, Karl coughed violently after yelling.
This gray-haired old man just experienced the torture of throat cancer last season. This certainly has an impact on Karl, who is accustomed to yelling.
“Cameron, do you know how many good opportunities you have wasted!? Now the outside world is talking about your transfer news, do you really want to leave with peace of mind!? Don’t forget, you are still on the Nuggets One! Don’t forget, who made you a superstar back then!” Carl was still yelling. Anthony looked at the old man with messy hair and yelling like a child. He felt pitiful. .
“Little Melon” did not gnaw, but no one saw it. This guy clenched his fists.
“Smelly old man!” Anthony cursed silently in his heart, but in fact, does he really hate George Carl so much?
“You have to defend, Cameron, defend! The Mavericks use their tough defense to stop you, you are good, let others break through! I want you to **** defend, can you hear it?” Carl won’t Change his attitude because Anthony is a star.
“I can hear it!” Anthony replied grimly. He must use practical actions to let the old man, the media, and all his opponents shut up!
The game restarted in the fourth quarter. Through the TV screen, people even found that some of the Nuggets fans who came to watch the game had begun to leave the field. And Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley are talking about another game that will be played later, and their interest in this game has gradually diminished.
Just under the indifference of everyone, there was a loud noise suddenly on the court. Everyone’s eyes returned to the court, and suddenly, everyone opened their mouths and took a breath.
“Carmelo Anthony, dunks! Shaun, he may have forgotten that he is no longer young!” On the court, Anthony was hanging on the frame, and under his crotch, he held up like a reflex. Raised his hands to block his Marion.
A replay of Anthony’s goal was immediately shown on the big screen. It can be seen that Anthony seems to be a lot more active than before. His swift breakthrough made Marion unprepared, and then Anthony pulled up and was about to buckle, while Maryland tried to stop it. As everyone knows, the result has become like that.
Anthony did not slack off this time, but immediately ran back to his own half to participate in the defense after landing. Nowitzki’s turn-over jumper missed the iron, and Anthony rushed in from outside the three-point line and jumped high, rushing to protect the rebound before everyone else.
After grabbing the rebound, Anthony ignored Billups who raised his hand. Instead, he pushed forward on his own, quickly drove to the basket, and succeeded in a one-stop layup.
Then, Anthony received another pass from Billups at the bottom left corner. After receiving the ball, Anthony didn’t hesitate to shoot. This time, the basketball hollowed into the net and Anthony scored again!
“This is the performance of a superstar!” Kenny Smith, who was already drowsy, instantly became energetic, and Anthony’s sudden explosion made the game full of spectacle again!
“Only two points! Now the Nuggets are only two points behind the Mavericks! Look at the expressions of the Mavericks players, they still haven’t figured out what happened just now! Carmelo Anthony’s tough response made the game. It was full of suspense again. The game was stopped and coach Rick Carlisle requested a timeout! God, this is Carmelo Anthony! You never, never underestimate the ability of this guy!”
Kenny Smith spit on the commentary stage, and Yiyang on the court also had to face the nervous Carlisle.
“Get on the court! Also, Jeter, it’s your turn! Also, I want you to connect the team’s offense. I don’t care how Anthony is, as long as he scores, you must keep up! You know, like him People will never stop. Let your teammates get a chance, let your teammates get a chance!” Carlisle’s last sentence was repeated twice, and Yiyang nodded slightly. It seems that today’s victory will cause trouble. It’s a little episode.
Then, Carlisle arranged some tactics against the others. But Yiyang’s task has already been assigned.
“Don’t worry, although the Nuggets are really starting now, you must not worry! If you are in a hurry, the Mavericks will be in a mess. No matter how incredible goals Anthony scores later, no matter how many points they score in a row, you You have to keep me steady.” While Carlisle was explaining things to other players, Kidd pulled Yiyang aside and started a “small focus” for the show.
“I will.” Yiyang looked at Anthony on the other side of the stadium. That guy must be the same as himself, he wouldn’t give up…
came back from a timeout, and the Nuggets sent a lineup with the strongest offensive firepower. Billups and Afflaro partnered in the backcourt, Anthony and Harrington partnered in the frontcourt, and Sheldon Williams sat on the inside alone. J.R., Lawson and Forbes, who performed poorly today, all sat on the bench with towels. This is George Karl, a crazy Karl who is always aggressive.
On the Mavericks side, Nowitzki, Marion and Chandler did not move, but Kidd and Barea became Yiyang and Terry.
Although the Nuggets are only one point behind, Yiyang is not in a hurry to open the score, but slowly organizes the offense under Billups’ stern eyes.
Yiyang’s calmness is extremely inconsistent with his age. After all, this guy has such a character.
After holding the ball beyond the three-point line, Billups opened his arms, bent his knees slightly, and slammed in front of Yiyang. Yiyang has to admire the superb defensive position of this FMVP. Not far or near, it can both interfere with shooting and block breakthroughs. Without more than ten years of high-level competition training and super high ball quotient, the defensive distance is impossible to be so good.
But Yiyang didn’t intend to score on his own, so he raised his hand to pass. The basketball slowly fell to the inside, and it seemed that as long as Nowitzki received the ball, the Mavericks would succeed in scoring. After all, Harrington’s defense cannot bring any pressure to the Germans.
However, it was the moment the basketball began to fall. Carmelo Anthony moved quickly and received the basketball before Nowitzki!
“What!?” Now, even Yiyang, who is accustomed to “facial paralysis”, showed a slightly surprised expression This was originally a pass that was too stable to be stable, and Yiyang dropped the ball. Anthony was not by Nowitzki at all when he went out!
But the Denver No. 15, desperately eager for victory, chased like crazy. In the end, this almost impossible steal was completed abruptly!
Yiyang reacted quickly, he ran away and hurried back to defense! And Anthony’s advancement has left everyone else behind.
Yiyang defended to the basket in advance, and saw the strong Anthony rushing towards him, Yiyang, who was slightly thin, was not afraid. He leaped high, hoping to stop Anthony’s attack!
However, the strong Anthony was not affected by Yiyang at all in the air. When he had physical contact with Yiyang, the basketball fell into the net and the Nuggets evened the score!
When the ball was scored, the fans in the Pepsi Center finally laughed with joy. The Nuggets came back to life despite the unstoppable decline!
The Denver No. 15 wearing a white jersey has a fierce expression and puffs up his muscles. This is the catharsis of a man’s desire for victory!
“What are you in a daze?” Chandler, who ran over to deliver the baseline ball, saw Yiyang staring at Anthony. He thought that the show was frightened by Anthony’s momentum. After all, Anthony was also a superstar on the same level as James. And Yiyang, although he played a few good games, he was still a rookie after all.
“It’s nothing.” Yiyang’s taciturn speech is still not much.
When Yiyang took over the basketball and pushed forward again, it was difficult for people to find that a slight smile appeared on the face of the Dallas One.
That’s plausible, Carmelo Anthony! Compared to strong opponents, Yiyang is more afraid of boring games. Come on, let us have a good time for victory!
