Chapter 740: You're Lost
Mr. 50 points.
In the history of the NBA, being able to score 50 points in a single game has almost become one of the hallmarks of a super scorer.
Whether it is Kobe, Maddy, Carter, Iverson, or Jordan and Chamberlain, as long as they dare to call themselves super scorers, without a 50-point performance, they are embarrassed to say hello when they go out.
And more recently, LeBron, Anthony, Chen Mu, and now Gu Yu all have their own 50-point performances. Gu Yu has become the king of the new generation of scoring maniacs by virtue of the large number of 50+ games that have accumulated in the first few years of his career.
Sandwiched between this group of masters, of course, there have been some wonderful names.
For example, the well-known commander of the cavalry company, the man Brewer with a warm smile, and Andre Miller, who "no one thought that this thing could actually score 50 points", are all surprising names that appear in the list of 50+ scoring masters.
So what kind of existence is Jamal Crawford in this popular choice?
You say he's a scorer, and that's right, a player who can score 50+ points on more than three teams is the only one in the modern basketball world.
The two names that can share this honor with Crawford are thunderous and shocking whenever they are pronounced - "not human" Chamberlain, and frontcourt rebounding king Moses Malone.
A skinny defensive colander who looks even a little weak, a physical that is the average level of skill flow at the No. 2 position, and a swinging scorer who makes people want to smash the keyboard and gnaw at the console when he feels bad.
Jamal Crawford, however, is one of the most scorers in the league at all times and in all places.
"Bang bang bang!"
On the court, the game continued, and the Clippers seemed to have pinned all their hopes on Crawford, who had a good hand, and made him the ball and let him play alone.
borrowed cover and forced the Kings to change defenses, and in the face of Beasley's defense, Crawford played with ease, and his continuous dribbling was brilliant and adrenaline-pumping, but in the blink of an eye, Beasley began to stumble under his feet.
"Rub!"
Crawford seemed to be wielding a paintbrush on the court, trying to use the orange flame of basketball to dye the entire stadium with his own color, and he stopped suddenly, leaned on Beasley's chase behind him, and then rolled his eyes.
Beside him, Gu Yu rushed over.
“…… Bang! ”
Turning around and crotching, the moment Gu Yu made a steal, Crawford twisted wildly around Beasley's body, which was a large circle taller than him, like a crazy artist, and actually didn't go to the inside line, but turned out to the outside line.
With a 360-degree turn, the moment of the frame again, the two defenders in front of Crawford left a small half-step distance.
This distance is enough.
“…… Call! ”
Give a shot to a scorer like Crawford, this little space, it's enough!
"Huh!"
"Three points and then !!"
Kefan shouted, Crawford hit three points again, and Gu Yu used singles to find a 14-point difference to narrow to 11 points.
There are about 5 minutes left in the time, and the Clippers want to chase the score, and it is completely too late!
"Attack, attack!" Wei Shao was so angry that he scolded his mother in his heart while dribbling.
Since Crawford came up, Paul has become the king of meddling, standing outside the three-point line on the weak side and not moving at all.
Wei Shao defended Paul, and according to his character, he would definitely rush to the inside line to wrap Crawford at this time. But reason told him, and the coach told him, that Paul must not be let go.
Even though Paul has never been known for scoring goals, if the situation calls for it, the queen bee of the year will still show his sharp poisonous needle, stabbing you to the heart and dying violently.
Aggrieved!
When he came to the front court, Gu Yu had already started to run to ask for the ball, and when Wei Shao sent a pass, he didn't mention how aggrieved he was.
You let Wei Shao not make up for the defense, okay, this is a tactical requirement.
But you let Wei Shao get to the front court and still don't attack it yourself? Also a tactical requirement??
Wei Shao just wants to scold, tactics are a ball of yarn!
"Bang, bang, bang"
Seeing Gu Yu's backs alone, he instantly attracted the bag clip, and the way he sent the ball with a hand, how eager Wei Shao was to simply take a few steps forward, intercept the basketball halfway, and get it directly.
But no, whether it is Phil Jackson, Gu Yu, or the situation of this game, they all clearly tell Wei Shao that this will not work.
With a ten-point advantage in hand, the most important thing at this time is to maintain the point difference, keep the rhythm down, and play the success rate. Wei Shao's forced shot under the impulse, if he enters, he is a hero, but if he doesn't enter, he will be punished by Daolang.
What an annoying comparison!!
"Whoosh!"
Seeing Green at the top of the arc receiving the ball, and then passing a hand to Beasley on the weak side, the latter looked lazy after receiving the ball, Wei Shao was angry.
What tactics to play, what to match, what success rate to play, what rhythm to press??
Wouldn't it be over with them!
"Dang!"
As if God wanted to add a fire to Wei Shao's pile of dry wood, Beasley's mid-range shot missed, the rebound was picked up by Jordan Jr. at an incredible height, and the Clippers counterattack began.
“…… Depend on! With a scolding, Wei Shao chased desperately and chased Paul all the way back to the backcourt.
But he knew very well in his heart that Paul would not attack himself at all.
"Jamal!"
With a whoosh, the basketball flew out of Paul's hand, and as Wei Shao expected, the Clippers were sure to play Crawford, and everyone in other positions was just a containment on the court.
"Bang bang!"
Not far away, Crawford continued to dribble, and when he was running, he had already used Griffin's cover to force the Kings to change defenses again.
was bent on single-handedly picking up Beasley, and Crawford still adopted an attitude of avoiding Gu Yu's edge, which not only made Wei Shao angry, but also made Gu Yu very unhappy.
Rivers has emphasized to the Clippers players many times before the start of the game, don't mess with Gu Yu, don't mess with Gu Yu, don't mess with Gu Yu, don't try to mess with Gu Yu no matter what.
At this time, a player like Crawford who is a chicken thief, of course, knows this.
Therefore, even if he has the confidence that he can single-handedly pick up Gu Yu and continue to score, he must deliberately find cover to force the change of defense and attack Beasley's defensive weakness.
And Beasley ......
“…… Bang! ”
Distracted.
"Beasley is distracted!! The shaking of Crawford's shoulders made Beasley think he was going to pass the ball, so he changed direction and dribbled forward, hanging directly on the corner, Jordan Jr. stopped his cousin again, and Crawford made a three-point shot......!!! ”
it doesn't matter!!
Just as Crawford was about to make a move, Wei Shao rushed over.
You don't have to think about it to know that Wei Shao must have been annoyed by Crawford's continuous heads-up, and in an instant, his anger and blood surged, and he simply let go of Paul, and he also had to go up to prevent Crawford from continuing to score.
At the moment of making this decision, Wei Shao had already figured out that if Crawford did pass the ball to Paul, who made an open three-pointer, he would be considered unlucky.
But judging from Crawford's choice of shot, this situation is not an opportunity, but in Crawford's eyes, it is also an opportunity.
So he'll definitely vote!
"Rub!"
Aiming at the moment when Crawford's hands were raised to protect the ball, Wei Shao roared and rushed to the sky, his hands raised high, covering the sky and the sun, and the incredible bounce height made everyone on the scene stunned.
Except for Crawford.
“…… Sou. ”
Collect the ball.
No one could have imagined that Crawford would actually do shooting feints outside the three-point line in the bottom corner, in such a small range, and after the point of flying away, Crawford's performance is not over.
stepped forward and took a small step, Crawford's control of his feet was extremely precise, still stepping on the three-point line, and his upper body was stuck forward as if it were nothing.
Wei Shao couldn't dodge, and when his elbow fell, he touched Crawford's left hand.
"Beep beep beep!" , "Whew——! ”
The referee's eyes were sharp like knives, and the moment the whistle blew, Crawford's whole body twisted, made a three-point shot, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Kings defensive foul, Clippers ......"
Looking back at the basketball, the referee's mind suddenly recalled countless scenes of Crawford making similar actions, and the penalty in his mouth was shouted halfway.
A second later.
"Huh!"
“…… Three points are valid, plus a free throw! ”
"Wow——!!!"
At the Staples Center, an overwhelming shout rang out.
"Three, three plus one !!" Kefan on the side of the commentary stage was also stunned, shaking his head and sighing: "Although when it comes to three plus one now, everyone will think of cousin, Curry, and these new generation of superstars." But once upon a time, the king of the league's three plus one was Jamal Crawford!! ”
“YES……!” Sitting on the ground, Crawford watched the basketball brush up the net, his right hand clenched into a fist in the air and shook slightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
“…… FXXXXXXXXXXXXXK!!! On the other side, Wei Shao's intestines were about to turn green, and he roared angrily, eager to screw his head off directly.
In the midst of the cheers of the court, Crawford hit a free throw, and the difference was forced to close to 7 points, and a wave of more enthusiastic cheers rang out.
Wei Shao was so angry that he came to the basket and grabbed the rebounding basketball and smashed the basket support post hard.
“…… Beep beep beep !! ”
When the referee's whistle sounded, everyone in the audience was stunned.
"Technical foul!!" The referee's finger pointed at Wei Shao, and the audience was in an uproar.
“…… TF?! "Wei Shao is really angry now, and he can't stand it, so he has to reason with the referee when he takes a step forward.
"Hind legs, shut up." Behind him, an arm reached over and clamped Wei Shao tightly.
"What the are you ......" Wei Shaogang wanted to go crazy, and continued to move forward with all his strength.
But he suddenly found that he couldn't move.
This arm strength is ......
"Let him take a penalty, let him shoot, don't worry, it doesn't matter how many technical fouls you eat." Wei Shao turned around and saw Gu Yu's still arrogant smiling face: "I think Rivers is really Shi Lezhi, and he actually wants to score heads-up with us?" This kind of duel is really nothing to watch, because from the beginning ......"
Looking back at Crawford, in Gu Yu's eyes, the long-lost flame that belonged to the challenger was blazing.
“…… They're already lost! ”
