Basketball Myth: Super Guard - Chapter 1837
Wachovia Center Arena.
The Raptors players have arrived, and the 76ers players have also appeared one after another, but people didn’t see Qin Hao until the end, and they were a little confused.
what’s the situation?
What about Qin Hao? What about our Qin Yuetian?
Not only the fans, but even the on-site commentary was a little dumbfounded. I almost called out Qin Hao’s name just now. Fortunately, there is none. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if no one was there.
“Where’s Qin?”
“Yes, where did Qin go?”
“What’s the plane, why didn’t Qin Hao come out? This is the playoffs?”
There was a lot of ridicule, and the fans were about to overturn the arena.
A group of Raptors players are all inexplicable, ten-faced, and they say no, happiness won’t come so suddenly, right? Xiaoka came back, but Qin Hao was going to miss the game. Is he sick, or did he oversleep today?
“Cough, cough, cough.”
At this time, the commentator’s voice came from the loudspeaker, which seemed a little embarrassing: “Well, let me explain here, Qin temporarily withdrew from the game due to personal reasons, and he will not play today.”
“what?”
“Ah, withdrawing from the competition? What personal reasons? Is it because you are not feeling well?”
For a time, people were in an uproar.
At this moment, the host looked confused. He had received news from the 76ers coaching staff, but he did not know the specific reason.
So for the fans’ questions, he can only have no comment.
The reason why Coach Luke didn’t explain is because of his personal conduct. This is Qin Hao’s private affairs. It cannot be published without his consent, otherwise it will definitely cause heated discussions among fans, some of which are malicious.
Instead of causing unnecessary discussion, it’s better to hide it first, and then Qin Hao will explain it to the fans when he comes back.
The discussion continued for a long time before the fans gradually quieted down.
Although Qin Hao did not participate, the game will continue. At this moment, the players on both sides have warmed up and returned to the sidelines.
“Today Qin doesn’t play is a good opportunity for us.” The Raptors coach’s eyes flashed with excitement, and he said in a deep voice: “Qin doesn’t play, Leonard has just come back, and the opponent’s Big Three are only left. A Butler. So we have to win this game, understand?”
“Understood.” Everyone responded in unison, with high fighting spirit.
Before, they were worried that the three giants of the other party would gather together, and they had no idea in their hearts, but now it is different.
What’s more, Qin Hao is the leader of the 76ers, the star, the strongest of the Big Three, and the most indispensable one. Without him, the 76ers would be like a tiger without teeth, and it’s still a paper tiger. Not enough to fear.
Here’s the 76ers.
Coach Luke said, “Qin can’t compete today, but we can’t let him down. We have to win the game, understand?”
“Understood.” Butler smiled and said, “Qin is about to become a father, which is a good thing. We can’t block him, we must win.”
“Yes, we must win.” Everyone shouted.
Although Qin Hao was missing, the morale of the 76ers did not drop in the slightest and was very high, because they were all happy for Qin Hao, and Qin Hao was about to become a father.
Today’s victory is their gift to the baby!
……
At half past seven in the evening, the game officially started.
Players from both sides came to the court, and the Raptors were Varan, Patterson, Johnson, DeRozan, and Lowry.
The 76ers are on Nene, Speights, Butler, Xiaoka, and Sessions.
When Qin Hao is away, there is no need to play “big one and four small”, because “big one and four small” need an excellent No. 1 player, and neither Sessions nor Lu Wei can do it. So Coach Luke still sent a regular lineup, but Lu Wei was still a substitute, as the “sixth man”.
First the jump ball, the Raptors got the ball and started the offense first.
After coming to the frontcourt, Lowry asked for a pick-and-roll, then broke through, attracted the defense, then split the ball, passed it to Patterson, and Patterson passed it to DeRozan.
“Pull it off.”
The others pulled away and DeRozan singled.
At this point, DeRozan is facing off against Kawhi, and DeRozan is obviously going to take advantage of Kawhi’s just comeback, so let’s give him a slap in the face first.
I saw that DeRozan made a shot fake first, then made a breakthrough, accelerated to the right, Xiaoka quickly moved laterally, and got stuck first.
“Reaction so fast?” DeRozan thought to himself, and immediately it was a crotch dribble, instead of breaking through from the left.
Still not.
Xiaoka’s injury has healed, and his physical condition is no problem. There is no problem in defense. DeRozan wants to easily pass him, the “best defensive player”. How easy is it?
Seeing this, DeRozan’s heart was stunned, and he also put aside his contempt. He took another step to the left, and then turned over and made a jumper with a back.
Still a signature mid-range cast.
Swish!
With a bang, the ball went in.
Xiaoka jumped up and blocked the block for the first time, but the opponent fell back and still failed to block, allowing DeRozan to score the ball.
“It’s okay, it’s just the beginning.” Butler took a photo.
Xiaoka nodded and ran to the front court.
Sessions pushed the ball to the frontcourt and saw Butler open his hand for the ball, and immediately passed it. Butler was not polite. Taking the ball was a single play, **** for tat.
The opponent to Butler is Johnson. Butler is more dominant in playing Johnson than DeRozan is playing a small card.
The last time the two sides played against each other was in the regular season. That time, Butler was in extremely poor form and had no touch from the outside, but Qin Hao broke out and scored 62 points to defeat the Raptors, making the Raptors a backdrop.
Butler is not soft this time.
I saw Butler take a step forward, not very fast. He took the initiative to find a physical confrontation, and took a step back to the top of Johnson. Varan has moved closer to this side, ready to make up for defense.
However, Butler did not hit the inside line, but took a step sideways, then jumped up, and also chose a mid-range shot.
Swish!
The ball goes in.
In the next few rounds, DeRozan played singles one after another. He wanted to target Xiaoka, and he also scored another one. However, after a few rounds, he found that the singles became more and more difficult.
The defensive pressure brought by the small card is increasing.
At the same time, on the 76ers’ side, Butler also played a series of singles, and he caught Johnson and beat him, didn’t he just start the singles, the ball planet, who wouldn’t?
Here, Butler beats Johnson more efficiently than DeRozan, making 3 of 4 shots, including a pull-up 3-pointer, which also hits steadily.
Butler scored 7 points, and DeRozan scored 4 points, both star singles, the effect is clear at a glance.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Lowry quickly informed his teammates and told DeRozan to give up this style of play and start playing according to tactics.
For a while, the two sides came and went, and a few minutes passed in a blink of an eye, but the Raptors didn’t take any advantage.
……
Meanwhile, outside the hospital.
A taxi came, and the door was pulled open without waiting for the car to stabilize. Qin Hao took out a few beautiful knives and threw them to the driver.
