Chapter 186: Seeing the Trick (Part II)
Generally speaking, on the basketball court, the offensive player scores the action, and after the basketball falls into the frame, even if the defensive player makes some small movements, the referee will not blow the penalty.
Unless this small action is too excessive, pushing the scoring player directly to the ground will be counted as an offensive foul, and the scorer can add a penalty, but like this game, Chen Mu arrogantly hung on the basket after the dunk was successful, and Barty was blown for a foul just by reaching out and caressing his chrysanthemum, which is rare.
It's just that the referee of this game is so uninhibited!
"Playing small moves in front of me? Racism right under my nose? There are no doors! Haven't you heard of me as the 'No. 1 whistle in the NBA?? β
Bald referee Crawford, the character referee that countless Spurs fans love and hate, made another controversial decision. At the home court of the Magic team, Crawford was really "a master of art" and gave such a personal penalty.
In fact, Chen Mufang's action of hanging the frame after the dunk may be closer to the edge of foul in the eyes of other referees. You know, if it weren't for someone under the basket and hanging the frame for the sake of protecting the players, hanging on the basket for too long after the dunk would be whistled for a technical foul.
Crawford was also hesitating, whether to give this Chinese kid a technical foul to kill him in the limelight, but between hesitations, he happened to see Barty's pushing action, which directly aroused the surging anger of the old referee, and immediately got up and whistled, and served a foul.
It is true to say that Crawford was overly penalized and that his personal inclination was obvious. But as a veteran referee in the league for decades, his decision still has some theoretical basis. Even the most famous "Duncan will blow the whistle as soon as he laughs" can be barely rounded back with referee theory from a certain point of view (of course, he was punished by the NBA afterwards, missed the rest of the season, and was called by Stern as "losing the judgment of an NBA referee").
It's just the dazzling image of the old referee, the bald head of the hanging scum sky, and the roaring sound when he opens his mouth to roar. and the exaggerated actions after the blowing penalty are too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As a result, many fans think that the Crawford referee is a scumbag, a punishment that can be blown at will. But the relationship has not been swept away by the alliance.
What does Crawford hate most? Fans who have watched the game where he blows the penalty must know that there are three main things:
First, how dare you question my authority?
Second, how dare you play small moves in front of me and think you can escape my titanium dog's eyes?
Third, why do you dare to question my authority?
These three (count the early deaths). is Crawford's "Iron Whistle Law", as long as you dare to violate these three iron laws on the court, the old bald head doesn't care if you are Kobe or Duncan, LeBron or Durant, you can blow it when you should blow it, and you can blow it if you don't blow it, in short, you don't have to talk about it!
Today's Chen Mu has obviously received the "love" of the old referee.
Instead of blowing Chen Mu's technical foul, he blew Barty for an offensive foul, and Crawford's penalty once again stirred up a thousand waves. attracted the fans to chant "black whistle" constantly.
However, Orlando fans may not know enough about Crawford's character, and the old baldman's favorite thing to do is "The more you hack me, the more I have to blow it!" β
This can be regarded as a kind of embarrassment of "although tens of millions of people go to me......
After completing the general two plus one of this "Heavenly Festival Exercise", Chen Mu got his 11th personal point, and the 11 points of the 76ers' opening game were all scored by the Chinese kid alone.
Magic, on the other hand. Howard's singles were unstoppable, and the team still led by two points at 13-11, and there was still a big mountain to cross in front of the boys from Philadelphia.
Oh. By the way, I seem to have forgotten to say just now:
Joseph Joy Crawford, born in Pennsylvania in 1951, is a native of Philadelphia.
The match continued, and I don't know if Chen Mu's continuous strong performances made Hunter regain some confidence, or if Howard's continuous singles were beyond his current individual ability. After a confrontation, Howard's hook hand failed to hit, Chen Mu grabbed the rebound, and launched a fast attack with a pass with his open hand.
Iguodala, as the captain of the Philadelphia fast break squad, took the ball and made a quick raid, and scored a layup before Turkoglu chased the defense in place, 13-13, and the two teams were tied!
"Dwight, go to the high position, block and dismantle, block and dismantle!"
At this time, Brian Hill was completely anxious, waving his hands constantly, eager to get on the court and directly participate in the attack.
The old coach's shouting worked, and after two consecutive Howard singles failed, the Magic changed tactics, one high block, two light passes, and Hill scored near the baseline to regain the lead.
"Next, it's ...... tough battle!"
After passing the baseline ball, Chen Mu ran quickly to the frontcourt, looking at Howard, who was also staring at him with an unhappy face, ready to meet what may be the most difficult matchup in his career so far.
The Magic team has finally begun to change their defenses.
The 76ers attacked, Miller passed the ball to Iguodala, and according to the follow-up tactics arranged at the timeout, he began a wonderful performance like a move.
Iguodala held the ball at the top of the arc, Miller fell into the three-point line, and made a cover cooperation with Korver, beckoning Hunter to stand by on the weak side, ready to scramble for rebounds at any time, and then Miller pouted his own ass and pushed it hard in front of Nelson (see Kee for the guy!). ), and began to open his hand to ask for the ball.
Miller, going to single Nelson?
Nelson was happy at first glance, in terms of brain, he may be one of the worst point guards in the league, but in terms of chaotic ability and strength, Nelson is not worthy of anyone, his legs opened and leaned hard, stuck Miller's route, and prepared to catch a turtle in an urn with Howard, who was defending Chen Mu not far away.
Miller controlled the ball and tried to get inside, but he didn't have the advantage in power and couldn't succeed, and the strong side Korver had come to 45 degrees outside the three-point line, and Hill, who followed the defense, deliberately stepped back, ready to pinch Miller at any time.
The continuous shaking failed, Miller turned around one after another, and seemed to be about to lean back to shoot, Nelson hurriedly posted it, and Howard, who was not far away, also began to move to the basket, ready to scramble for rebounds, at this moment, Chen Mu suddenly began to start running back, not rushing to the basket, but running outside the three-second zone.
βHEREοΌβ
Hunter, who understood it, was already in place, and a just right cover blocked Howard, it was the emptiness of this moment, Miller's pass roared, Chen Mu immediately shot after receiving the ball, and the basketball crossed an arc and fell into the basket.
There was silence.
"When Dwight comes to defend, he starts to use cover to contain it, focusing on Miller's back-to-back ball, looking for mid-range opportunities?"
Brian Hill let out a long sigh and rubbed his temples, looking back at Cheeks with a little more apprehension in his eyes.
"When did this brainless Morris start to become so cunning, did he anticipate what would happen later and set up this set of tactics before I proposed to change the defense?"
In response to Brian Hill's self-talk, there was the crisp sound of Chen Mu and Miller high-fives, and the silence in the Amway Center Arena.
In the following game, as if to answer the old coach's questions for Cheeks, a group of young people with an average of not very long playing age of the 76ers actually began to use a variety of highly targeted tactics to compete against Brian Hill's carefully arranged tactics every time.
In the face of Howard's defense, Chen Mu, who constantly bullied Barty with his back singles at the beginning, instantly transformed, and did not hit with the ball on his back. The ball was more in the hands of Miller and Iguodala, and Chen Mu himself ran back and forth in the half, covering his teammates from time to time, and finally found space for a sneaky reverse run, and hit a quick shot.
After that, Bryan Hill began to try to use Tekoglu to defend Chen Mu, and the pace was to keep up, Chen Mu's personal scoring momentum was contained, but Iguodala faced Barty, which was simply a one-sided slaughter.
After receiving the wonderful passes from Chen Mu and Miller again and again, Iguodala could not smell Barty's fart in almost one step, and he showed great power in the middle distance, winning in a row, and the 76ers continued to increase their scores.
After that, there was the connecting section, the substitutes of the two teams were full of vitality and did not give in to each other, and the score rose alternately, and the scene was very good-looking.
Switching back to the starting line in the middle of the second quarter, Brian Hill gritted his teeth and left Ariza on the court. This time, Chen Mu didn't even do his signature back-to-back feints, and directly used the method of dealing with Murphy to deal with the defense of the small man, crushing it several times, or scoring points, or sending a wonderful pass, and the Magic's defensive front was on the verge of collapse.
Hill continued to make adjustments, Ariza kept an eye on Iguodala, and Turkoglu completely put himself in the No. 4 position against Chen Mu. As a result, this Chinese kid didn't know what he ate to grow up, and the strange ideas in his head were endless, so he simply became a temporary point guard at the top of the arc, completely not participating in the offensive finishing, and after leading Tekoglu to the outside, he sent passes again and again to assist his teammates to score.
On the offensive end, the Magic is also uncomfortable, as long as Howard attacks with the ball, the 76ers will immediately serve in a double package, Hunter and Iguodala are high and fast, causing several mistakes in a row. After coming and going, the happy monster turned into a frustrated little monster, the offensive feel began to decline, and the whole magic team struggled.
Bryan Hill was in a hurry, and he replaced Patgaretti or Outlaw, both of which were to give meat to Chen Mu, who likes defensive projection inside. After scratching his head, he reluctantly replaced a tall white man on the bench.
"Only Dwight has a back point, you need to strengthen the basket offense to open up the situation on the offensive end!"
Brian Hill's idea was right, and his strategy was also correct, but when Chen Mu saw the big man standing on the sidelines, waiting for the game with a trembling look, he couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, isn't this the long-lost Lord Bangyan!" (To be continued.) )
