Chapter 38: The Price of the Core

After the timeout, the two sides returned to the court, and Chamberlain was stunned to find that his opponent had changed, and Howard did not continue to play, replaced by a white man with a large bald head, Marcin Gortat.

Compared with the average white interior player, Gortat, who is also white, is an unusually strong body, and like most black players, his skills are rough, and he eats purely on physical fitness, as if he were a black man with white skin.

This guy is really physical, as you can tell from his nickname, Polish Hammer!

Gortat entered the NBA in 2005, at the age of 23, he was in his prime, full of explosive power, and there are few white players who can practice such a strong body like him, but since coming to the Magic, he has not had many appearances, not because he is not capable, but because he has too little time to play as Howard's backup.

It's good to be a substitute for an ironman like Howard, and it's nice to be able to show his face every game, and sometimes he can play the whole game!

Nominally, Gortat's height is the same as Howard's, both are six feet eleven inches, which is two meters one one, but Howard is falsely reported, and Gortat is indeed worthy of the name six feet eleven, and he weighs more than 240 pounds, that is, 110 kilograms, from the outside, it is very suitable for defending Chamberlain.

Standing alongside Chamberlain, Gortat is ambitious and unafraid of the defensive rookie who has blocked his teammates three times.

Gortat's attacking skills were even rougher than his J8's, and after the opening kick-off, he got a pass from Bogans and hit Chamberlain with his ass, and nothing else. Chamberlain thumped his lower abdomen, and the two bumped into each other, and Gortat, seeing that he had no hope, passed the ball out of the box to Turkoglou.

Turkoglu is entangled with Barnes, for the latter such a pure hooligan, the Turkish gentleman hates deeply, he hates the kind of person who opens and closes his mouth is male and female genitalia, but Barnes is such a person, he can't hold down the ball when he gets the ball, and he opens his hand is a long shot.

Barnes interfered with Turkoglou, the ball bounced off the hoop, and Gortat was angry and wanted to grab the rebound, but as soon as he crouched down and was about to jump, Chamberlain had already risen into the air and grabbed the ball in his hands.

"Are you going to?" After Chamberlain landed on the ground, he looked mockingly at Gortat, who was still in a half-squatting position in surprise, turned around and waved his hand, and threw the ball to Azubuk.

Azubuk dribbled the ball to the front court like a small tank, Oxlade-Chamberlain stuck Gortat on the inside to signal for the ball, and Azubuuk did not hesitate to pass the ball in.

The moment he got the ball, Chamberlain turned around, and he roared angrily: "Lao Tzu wants to abuse you...... Dig the groove! ”

Chamberlain stepped past Gortat, who grabbed him by the arm and pulled him to his knees.

Needless to say, Gortat's strength almost knocked Chamberlain down, and when he saw that the hooligans of the Warriors team were immediately angry, they suddenly surrounded him and began to fire guns: "Do you want to fight?" Is this a ball or a man in Nima? ”

"Didn't the Germans fix you enough? Boy, I think you're pretty sideways, don't you owe repairs? ”

"It's the first time I've seen such an awesome foreigner, you don't want to live bald, do you?"

Gortat didn't care about the threat of these people, even if his teammates were huddled on the periphery and didn't dare to come to support him, the Pole still held his head high and provoked in turn: "It's the man who speaks with his fists, less chirp!" ”

This bald bunker, the Warriors' gang of hooligans were stunned, Chamberlain remembered that when he read the information before the game, he said that Gortat's father was a famous Polish boxer, and it seemed to be heavyweight, he estimated that this grandson had practiced, and finally he went up and pulled his teammates away.

Chamberlain was doing this for his team's friendliness, and if the person who dared to provoke them was a soft guy like Turkoglou or Lewis, he would have elbowed him and knocked him down first.

Jackson was not satisfied, and Gortat's provocation made the tough guy from the prison town angry, and he pushed Chamberlain and yelled: "Fuck boy, I think you're itchy on the skin, grandpa will give you a tight skin ...... today"

Chamberlain pushed people out one by one, but under the leadership of Jackson, the hooligans in Oakland became more and more energetic, and he was the most annoyed, shouting: "This kid used to fucking practice boxing, and his father is still a famous heavyweight boxer in Eastern Europe, and he has killed people in the ring, which of you still wants to play?" ”

The hooligans just took the opportunity to show their unruliness, they were idle to fight, and if they fought for such a trivial matter, then they would not be able to get enough of Stern for a salary of $100 million a season.

Chamberlain went to the free throw line, hit the iron twice, and didn't score a single free throw.

Gortat grabbed the rebound, the Magic took the opportunity to unleash the ****, and Redick finally showed a little bit of his NCAA demeanor, hitting a jumper from two feet from the three-point line.

The Warriors attacked again, Chamberlain got the ball again, and Gortat stretched out his claws again.

Gortat was a smart guy, he didn't push Chamberlain out like Howard did, but put him in the box and waited until he got the ball under the basket and wanted to go to the basket or dunk before committing a foul, so it was two free throws, and the two sides played more elegantly in the first half, and the Warriors didn't foul more than free throws.

Chamberlain was furious, and he tried to adjust his shooting stance, but he still missed two free throws. However, when he played with the Lakers in the first game, he had already improved, at least the basketball could touch the hoop, but it was basically on the inside, unlike when he played with the Lakers, the first serve was free-thrown.

"What the, Z, are your wrists made of copper? Why doesn't it bend? Azubuike was puzzled, although this guy is not a free throw machine, but as a shooting guard, it is still easy to make 9 of 10 free throws.

Jackson prides himself on being Chamberlain's eldest brother, and usually takes care of him, and this time is no exception, he glanced at Azubuke with disdain, and said: "Bastard, your J8 is not cast in copper and iron, but will it turn around?" ”

A group of people laughed evilly, Barnes squinted at Chamberlain, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Z's wrist and J8 are the same material!" ”

Chamberlain grimaced, he already knew the bastard's intentions, he wanted to play shark slashing tactics. But his mother's Dafan really looks up to him, he's just a rookie, as for using such despicable means to deal with him?

Rookie? Now except for Chamberlain, no one dares to continue to evaluate him like this, who can ride Andrew Bynum, blow up Tim Duncan and have a good chance of blowing up Howard on the defensive end today, who would dare to call him a rookie?

Chamberlain was angry, and the consequences were severe, and then Bogans broke through and rushed into the box to dunk, but Chamberlain pushed Gortat out of the flank, slapped the ball and flew the racket.

The Warriors' defense suddenly became solid, and the Magic team was a little uncomfortable, and this time the offense saw that the twenty-four seconds of offensive time was about to end, and Turkoglu could only make a hasty shot, and the basketball bounced out and was received into Chamberlain's arms.

Azubuke is not a first-class point guard after all, and after half court with the ball again, he did not dare to continue to pass the ball to Chamberlain.

Now everyone understands why Dafan replaced Howard, who was still full of physical strength, and replaced him with Gortat, a pure leftover, this bastard is going to play foul tactics on Chamberlain, and looking at the Magic's bench, Adona Foyle and Tony Barty, two veterans, are gearing up to replace Gortat at any time.

Dare to pinch Lao Tzu as a soft persimmon, Chamberlain was angry, he hastily wiped the sweat on his cheeks with his jersey, stuck Gortat behind him again, and reached out to ask for the ball reluctantly.

Barnes felt that this was a bit inappropriate, so he persuaded him: "Z, I think you'd better take a break, basketball is a five-person sport, and you still have our good teammates - shit, in fact, I want to say, with basketball everyone playing together, you can't just let you play alone!" ”

Jackson, as always, supported Chamberlain, shouting: "Give the ball to Z, he will definitely handle it, he is a genius, I believe he can do it!" ”

Nima, could it be that Z is Jackson's long-lost brother, otherwise why would he be so good to him? A group of people looked at the two of them and thought ill-willedly.

Chamberlain stuck his left arm with Gortat and moved towards the penalty area, but instead of fighting back, he wanted him to hurry into the box so that he could be fouled. This guy's only purpose in coming on the court was to foul him, and then provoke Chamberlain and take him off the court with a malicious foul.

Azubuuk threw the ball high, Chamberlain caught the ball and turned suddenly, Gortat hurriedly moved his feet to chase him, and subconsciously reached out and grabbed Chamberlain's shoulder.

"Fuck off!" Chamberlain roared, as if a thunderbolt from the blue sky fell on the Amway Center Arena, he didn't care about Gortat behind him, his feet stepped on the floor fiercely, every muscle on his body was wildly raised, and the wide jersey was propped up for a while!

With Gortat's arm, Chamberlain gritted his teeth and jumped up, he grabbed the basketball in his right hand and held the ball high above his head with thunder and lightning, as if a lion with chains rushed out of the cage, at this time no shackles could trap the beast, he took the strong Gortat, rose from the ground, and smashed the ball into the hoop with his big hand.

"Bang dang!" After the loud noise, the hoop shook wildly, and the reporters and cameramen under the basket were all urinating, and from their angles, they only saw a black shadow rushing towards them, as if they were going to destroy the world!

"Toot toot!" The referee blew the whistle, and Gortat looked at Chamberlain in despair, who looked at him with disdain, and the unruly look in his eyes was like substance!

On the Warriors' bench, cheers rang out one after another, and Jackson and others rushed up to surround Chamberlain in the middle, constantly pushing and shoving him, and congratulating him on his success with hooliganism.

Good things come in pairs, this time Chamberlain actually put the ball into the hoop, old Nelson laughed, he sat lazily on the bench, as if he had won the game, and he had no interest in the game on the court.
