The Almighty King of Sports - Chapter 936
And D’Antoni, who stood on the sidelines watching the game, had always been holding a heart.
He was worried that he would soon be defeated by the Suns’ main force when he played on the bench.
However, after the opening rounds, D’Antoni discovered that the Suns’ main force seemed to be unable to press his own substitute.
The core player of the Suns, Devin Booker, feels extremely bad today.
If it is said that German Booker did not score a point in the first quarter, it is understandable: Because Wang Fei focused his attention on Booker!
So, at the beginning of the second quarter, Devin Booker made two consecutive shots, and the phone will be very good, but all of them missed.
This fully shows that the leader of the Suns is really out of state today.
D’Antoni curled his lips and said to his heart, what kind of stuff, at this bad level, how dare you even say that you want to completely suppress the king?
Is there really no rounding?
Suns coach Igor Kokoshkov was a bit disappointed.
He believes that his main force should be able to seize the best opportunity to play a wave of scoring climax.
But now, it’s been more than a minute, but the Rockets are the first to score two points at the basket.
If you still can’t play in the next state, then tonight’s game will be completely out of play.
Igor Kokoshkov suppressed the urge to call a timeout.
He thought to himself, let’s call it a while and see!
If it really doesn’t work, then call a timeout to adjust the formation.
In the next game, as long as it is Devin Booker with the ball to attack, Wang Fei will see if the probability of scoring the ball is very high, he will throw out a one-time skill of the mind to make the ball miss.
In this way, the second quarter played 4 minutes, Devin Booker tried to shoot 5 times, all missed.
As for the Rockets, the more confident the benches play, the smoother they play.
Among them, Zhou Qi scored 3 goals under the basket. When he faced the Suns champion Lang DeAndre Ayton, he was not at all disadvantaged.
D’Antoni saw Zhou Qi showing his power under the basket. He couldn’t help but nodded. He said to his heart: This Chinese kid has really solid skills, and his playing efficiency is also quite high.
It seems that I really shouldn’t have been prejudiced against him before, and I should give him a little more opportunity to let him grow slowly.
Devin Booker’s mood is extremely bad at the moment.
He has been in this league for 3 years. In the past 3 years, he has never encountered a game like tonight. He obviously feels very good in shooting, and his skills are not out of shape, so he can’t make it.
This blow to his confidence is really a bit big!
Devin Booker was very angry.
Therefore, he decided to break into the inside line and directly make a dunk to vent his inner anger and irritability.
Devin Booker received a pass from Jamal Crawford and he began to move forward quickly.
Booker soon came outside the three-point line in the front court.
Here, he encountered a strong interception from Rockets forward James Ennis.
Devin Booker used his speed and skillful dribbling skills to finally get rid of Ennis’s defense and scored inside.
But at this time, near the basket, Zhou Qi was already in front of Devin Booker.
Devin Booker dribbled the ball quickly back to the right, he leaped up, holding the ball in both hands and slammed it into the hoop.
Booker said in his heart, I don’t believe it, I can miss a dunk!
Wang Fei was also surprised when he saw Devin Booker using his speed to jump up and dunk from the right side of the ring at Yuhui Island.
I rub!
Wang Feixin said, if he dunks, it is impossible for me, Mind Emperor, to drag the ball in his hand and make him dunk wrong?
It’s over, it’s over, this time, the zero letter German Booker is really bad.
Just when Wang Fei felt a little depressed, Zhou Qi jumped up, and his right hand was properly pressed on the ball in Devin Booker’s hand.
Devin Booker was knocked to the ground by the cap.
The ball rolled down from Devin Booker’s hands.
Gary Clark, who rushed over, snatched the ball into his own hands.
When Wang Fei saw this big hat dedicated by Zhou Qi, he was so happy.
He hurriedly applauded excitedly.
His applause caused all the Rockets players to applaud.
Gary Clark caught the ball and he immediately passed it to Daniel House.
Everyone will start the fast break.
When Daniel House came outside the three-point line, he saw that the person staring at him hadn’t chased him, he hesitated, and he still raised his hand to make a three-pointer.
Wang Fei took a look, okay!
The ball is so short, it is estimated that I can’t make it.
Wang Fei struggled, and he thought, forget it, don’t help Daniel House score this goal.
“Bang!”
This shot by Daniel House really hit the iron.
But Gary Clark has already rushed to catch the rebound.
Gary Clark is a steady mid-range jumper.
The ball has been scored.
At this point, the Rockets’ bench has already stunned the Suns’ main players.
The Suns are full of plans to crush the Rockets’ bench, but the Rockets’ bench is actually crushing the Suns’ main force.
Who can think of this?
“Beep—”
Suns coach Igor Kokoshkov called a timeout.
He was a little crazy.
How did this happen?
Isn’t this too delicious?
What he has on the court now is the strongest force on the Suns!
Even the Rockets can’t even beat the bench, which is a shame.
The Suns’ main player returned to the sidelines with a little dejection.
Igor Kokoshkov still resisted the urge to lose his temper.
He took a deep breath and said, “Gentlemen, you let me down, you really let me down. How can you play so messy? The opponent is a substitute lineup! They are both talented and technically. There is a big gap with you! This should be the best time to chase points! But, you were hit by the opponent, what else can I say?”
The players of the Suns bowed their heads silently, listening to Igor Kokoshkov’s temper.
Igor Kokoshkov lost his temper. He smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, “Well, I shouldn’t lose my temper to you, gentlemen, I have only one requirement for you now, and that is, you can fight well. Be reasonable, pass the ball more smoothly, be more serious in defense, and play cooperatively instead of fighting separately! Such requirements are not high, right?”
Devin Booker looked up at Igor Kokoshkov and said: “Igor, I feel really weird today. The few shots I have just made are pretty good, but in the end they all No, I think, luck will not be on our side tonight.”
Igor Kokoshkov frowned.
He said to his heart, paralyzed. You were only looking at singles. Since you don’t feel good, why can’t you pass the ball more to your teammates?
However, Igor knew that he could not lose his temper with German Booker.
Devin Booker is the leader of this team, and he is just a handsome coach who has seen unstable.
I don’t have much prestige in this team.
If you get into a stalemate with Devin Booker, you may be about to countdown to the end of get out of class.
Igor Kokoshkov only came to the Suns as head coach last year.
He signed a three-year contract with Sun.
The Sun executives also had high hopes for Igor Kokoshkov.
However, the reality is too cruel.
After Igor took office, the Suns’ record did not improve at all, but worse than last year.
This year’s Suns, the record even came to the bottom of the league.
Who can think of this?
Igor doesn’t think he is a poor coach, he is also a gold medal coach in Europe anyway!
It seems that this NBA is really different from the European Basketball League!
I’m a bit uncomfortable.
Igor Kokoshkov squeezed a smile on his face. He smiled very reluctantly. He said: “German, luck is one aspect. I think we have a problem with the implementation of tactics! You! You have been playing for a long time in a row, so take a good rest and let other people try it out.”
Devin Booker was startled.
Is this forcing yourself on the bench?
“Okay! I listen to your arrangements!” Devin Booker said a bit stiffly.
On the live broadcast.
McGrady shook his head and said: “I really didn’t expect it! The main force of the Suns can’t even beat the Rockets’ bench.”
Barkley smiled and said: “I think the Suns players have been beaten. Their performance in the first quarter has been very bad. Their momentum has reached the lowest point, so even if the Rockets are on the bench in the second quarter, They still haven’t gotten much better. After all, the sun is too bad, and their strength is simply helpless.”
Mike Brin said: “I think the Suns didn’t play well in the second quarter. It had something to do with Devin Booker. Booker’s shooting feel was too bad, and he couldn’t even make an open shot. In this case, the Solar It’s strange to win.”
McGrady looked at Barkley with a smile and said: “Charles, you have been saying that the Suns will have a chance after the king’s exit, but now the Suns seem to have not seized their chance. The Rockets’ bench players performed quite well. Now, will you change your opinion? Do you still think that without Harden’s Rockets, it is absolutely impossible to go further in the playoffs?”
Barkley nodded firmly: “I will not change my opinion. I still think that the Rockets lost Harden and suffered heavy losses. They cannot go further in the playoffs. The Suns are just a fish belly, not strong. Strong, even if the current rocket can easily kill the sun, it doesn’t mean anything!”
“So, you think the Rockets are definitely not a strong contender for the championship, do you?” McGrady asked.
“Yes!” Barkley said.
“Do you think the Rockets can make it to the Western Conference Finals?” McGrady asked again.
“They can’t! The West is too strong. The Spurs, Trail Blazers, Thunder, Warriors, Nuggets, and Jazz are all strong teams! Without Harden, the Rockets may only be able to play in one round!” Barkley said.
“According to you, do you think Wang is worse than Harden? Harden’s Rockets played seven games with the Warriors last year and almost overturned the Warriors to reach the Finals!” McGrady said.
Barkley was startled.
It really is like this.
Does he dare to say that Wang Fei is worse than Harden?
The stats are there. Wang Fei averaged 51 points per game, close to averaging 3 doubles per game.
Although Harden is also a strong man, he is still far behind Wang Fei in terms of statistics.
“Uh, this, I mainly think that the rocket led by Wang has obvious shortcomings. The physical problem of Wang is a bomb, and it will explode at any time. In this case, Wang is unable to lead the rocket to the end. When the rocket Losing the king in the most critical fourth quarter, then, the Rockets may not be able to stop the brutal offense of their opponents! Moreover, the regular season and the playoffs are not the same at all. In the playoffs, all teams will use With all my strength, the playoffs will be more brutal and fierce. That’s why I think that Wang’s role in the playoffs is really not comparable to Harden.” Barkley said.
