Chapter 398: They defined the pick and roll! Utah Double Sha!


When Xie Chen knocked down Lambier for the Nth time, the scene changed, the system automatically determined that the challenge failed, and he played such a group fight. Xie Chen did not copy the fighting skills to whom. It seems that, Can only pin his hopes on the next game against the legendary Jazz.
Xie Chen experienced the most different and craziest basketball game. Everyone is not thinking about how to win, but how to knock down the opponent. Every layup and every physical contact can have very serious consequences. With such opponents, Xie Chen really feels crazy, there is no such team in the current league.
However, through this game, Xie Chen also found another shortcoming of his team, that is, there are too few tough players. Although it is different now, but in the playoffs, those "bad boys" are still needed. In the previous fight, the Knicks actually lost to the "pig "pig" island "novel www.zuhuaqi Pistons team, it is really shameful, before the magic, when Odom and Anthony were not present, even one There are no players who dare to clamor with Oladipo.
Therefore, Xie Chen felt that it was necessary for the team to sign a tough player, such as World Peace. I heard that the Lakers are also interested in signing world peace again. It seems that Xie Chen will hurry up.
The 2015 Pistons are not difficult to deal with. Even if Xie Chen has no system ability, he can still score easily, and finally wins without suspense. In the evening, Xie Chen talked about this issue with coach Anthony and Fisher.
Anthony was a little surprised: "Ci Shiping? You are actually interested in him. I heard that the Lakers have signed him."
Everyone is no stranger to Ci Shiping, and he has also been in the Knicks and has been a teammate with Anthony. Anthony certainly knows him a bit, but he looks at Anthony's expression. I don’t seem to be too excited. I’m not worried about Ci Shiping’s ability. Ci Shiping can still play a role on the field. The key issue is that many teams recognize Ci Shiping’s ability off the field, but I’m worried about being out of control he. Not dare to sign.
Coach Fisher has a complex look: "I think he should be interested in the Knicks, but I would like to ask you, do you know that he was cut by the Knicks last time, because of what?"
Xie Chen replied: "Is it because of his business with JR?"
Xie Chen didn't know much about the Knicks before. I only heard that Ci Shiping felt that JR Smith was not defensive. After the game, he was directly found in the locker room. Pointing at his face to teach him, of course JR was not convinced, and the two quarreled.
Fisher said: "Ci Shiping's character is very straight, and there are advantages and disadvantages to the team, but if you think you can control him, I will tell Phil. After all, our team really needs such a person. "
The next day, Phil Jackson received a call from Fisher after hearing the news. Immediately, he personally called Ci Shiping, who was now in Los Angeles. Preparing to discuss the signing of the contract with the Lakers, I never expected Phil Jackson to call him, this is really a surprise.
"Are you okay? What are you working on recently?" Phil Jackson cared very much as soon as he came up.
Ci Shiping laughed and said: "Finally, I got another job in the NBA, you know, the Lakers are very interested in me, I am about to join them!"
Ci Shiping's words still have a little concern before. After being cut by the Knicks, he once tried to contact Phil Jackson. He thought the Knicks would definitely sign him back again, but the result disappointed him.
Phil smiled: "Congratulations. But I don't know if you are interested in another team?"
"Oh? What team?" Ci Shiping asked for a reason, what team can Phil play?
Phil asked: "Are you interested in joining our New York Knicks again, I know that these two teams are very affectionate teams for you, but compared to the Lakers, our Knicks are more The chance is close to the championship, don't you want to get another championship ring in the few remaining careers?"
Hearing this, Ci Shiping was thrilled now, the championship... playoffs! That has always been the stage and honor that Ci Shiping dreamed of! For the veteran, there is no doubt that they want to join a team that can compete for the championship. Garnett has no way to return to the Timberwolves.
"This..." Ci Shi hesitated for a while, and he was really very emotional. During the offseason, if the Knicks extended an olive branch to him, he must agree without hesitation, but the situation is different now. After suffering for so long, finally the team wanted him or the Lakers. He didn't want to betray the opponent so quickly, although the Lakers wouldn't really care about him.
After a slight pause, Ci Shiping asked: "Phil, we all know what happened in the Knicks in the past, and you know what kind of person I am. I know that your Knicks are different this season from last season, because You have the best players in the league, but are you sure Xie will be willing to be my teammate? I mean, although I am a very responsible and friendly teammate, there may be some places... …"
"I understand, Ron, let me tell you the truth. In fact, it was Xie's idea to invite you to join this time, otherwise I will not call you personally." Phil Jackson told Ci Shiping the truth.
"What? Is Xie's idea?" Ci Shiping, who was in Los Angeles, was shocked on the spot. He had no friendship with Xie Chen. Why did Xie Chen invite him as an edge player for no reason?
Thinking of the incidents of Xie Chen and Oladipo before, Ci Shiping suddenly realized, and he said: "I understand, last time he and Oladipo did a fight, no one helped him, the Knicks' children were too Soft, he wants one more tough person on the team. It turned out that he wanted me to be his thug!"
Seeing Xie Chen's intentions, Ci Shiping relaxed a lot: "Oh, Phil, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my head. I'll talk about it someday, or you can ask Xie to come to Los Angeles to talk to me in detail."
When Phil heard it, he was suddenly angry. How could he not know Ci Shiping's careful thinking? Phil taught: "Ron! You don’t have to do such a naive move anymore. Xie played away in Salt Lake City. This is a rare opportunity for you. In the playoffs, with your ability and experience, you will It has a great effect, even if you can win the championship. You will also be a very big hero. Don’t miss the last precious opportunity in your life just because of your character!"
Ci Shiping scolded the old fox over there. He knew everything he wanted. Although hesitated, he still remembered the previous things. So he pretended to be a bad signal, yelled a few times, and then hung up.
"This bastard!" Phil also dropped the phone angrily, it seems that he had to tell Xie Chen about it.
After hearing this news, Xie Chen, who had already traveled to Salt Lake City, Utah, also felt very troublesome. Ci Shiping joined the Knicks, he was absolutely dreamed of, but after knowing that Xie Chen invited him, he not only did not feel honored. On the contrary, it has been intensified, and Xie Chen personally went to talk to him, definitely wanting to take this opportunity to talk about the conditions.
Xie Chen is still playing away and has to copy his fighting skills, so he has no time to ignore him, he can only wait until the game is over to make a decision.
Last season, the Jazz 38 wins and 44 losses, ranking 11th in the West, missed the playoffs. Judging from the month of the regular season this season, there seems to be no drama.
In the summer of 2013. The Jazz decided to stop using veterans to pursue the No. 8 seed in the West, but tried to use young players to build a team with more potential and strength, and let stars such as Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap go away. With the pain of a season and a half, the talented frontcourt combination of Gordon Haywood, Derek Favers, and Rudy Gobert finally formed.
But they haven't found a way to win until now. Maybe they will play differently after the All-Star. Fight for the eighth position.
In the face of such opponents, Xie Chen and Anthony showed no mercy and did not pay attention to it. They came up with a burst of indiscriminate bombardment, allowing them to experience the power of the league's most terrifying backcourt combination.
The highlight is the legendary challenge to be encountered next. Xie Chen didn't know which year he would meet the Jazz. He wanted to copy Ben Wallace, but unfortunately he met the Bad Boys Corps. Now he wants to copy Karl Malone. I don't know if he can do so.
When the scene changed, Xie Chen looked across, and at first glance, the figure of "Postman" Karl Malone was found!
He looks quite mature, and looking at the lineup of players around him, it should be 97 or 98 years. Ask the audience, and it is 1997.
"1997..." Xie Chen looked at the stadium of the last century, and these old people, could not help but feel emotional, if you really met them in 1997, there will be no feeling, but Xie Chen came from 2015 and he knew the final fate of the Jazz of Karl Malone and Stockton.
In May 1997, the Jazz defeated the Houston Rockets with a strong overall offense and defense, toughness in the last moment, and Stockton's buzzer 3-pointer. For the first time in history, the Jazz dominated the West and advanced to the finals. Xie Chen Chen still remembers the narrator's crazy hoarse shouting, yelling that they are going to challenge the bull!
"In 1997 and 1998, they fell at the feet of the bulls for two consecutive years. The fate of the Jazz is indeed sad." Xie Chen sighed. Stockton, Hornacek, Russell, Malone, Ostertag, this classic The five-man group has an amazing record of 64 wins and 18 losses. After the All-Star game, it is more than 90% of the league's first win in the history of the league. It is a passion that is nostalgic for pushing the strongest opponent in the history to the last moment. Age!
Xie Chen walked across the street. These people in the jazz looked at Xie Chen strangely. Xie Chen didn't care, but stared at Karl Malone. At this time, Malone was in his thirties, but looking at his stout Arms, strong body, is definitely the peak of strength, Xie Chen is thinking, what effect will Ma Long punch on Oladipo? Xie Chen also wondered what would it be like to hit him if he copied it?
Ma Long's strength is Xie Chen's most eager, because Ma Long is too strong and powerful, but Xie Chen still did not think about how to copy it.
Stockton saw Xie Chen kept staring at Malone and stepped forward: "Boy, don't be so close to Karl, be careful not to hurt you!"
Stockton was not too young at this time, he could already see the old gesture on his face, and Stockton was thinner than Xie Chen thought.
Xie Chen glanced at Stockton and then looked at Malone: ​​"If I hit him, you will definitely hit me, right?"
When Ma Long heard that Xie Chen was going to hit Stockton, he immediately stood in front of Stockton, showing his muscular arms, and his face was angry: "You should see my strength, dare to move him, I must be fierce Repair you! Trust me, you won’t want to know the taste of my fists."
Malone and Stockton, together for 18 years, they share success and failure, they share the same title "Utah Double Sha", they even share their children, they are the godfathers of each other's babies. Two, define the pick and roll.
In the 91-92 season, Stockton was selected to the Dream Team. Thomas was dropped. To prove himself, after the news was released, the Jazz went to the Pistons for the first time. Thomas has been sick of Stockton. Malone did not do anything at that time. But when the Jazz returned to the home, Thomas still bullied Stockton, and as a result, Malone rushed to elbow on Thomas's face, which was said to have stitched more than 40 stitches.
However, later, Stockton even chose Thomas as his Hall of Fame recommendation...
Stockton is also very affectionate to Malone. In his speech into the Hall of Fame, he said: "Now I want to mention a person's name, Karl Malone, although I respect you very much, David Robinson and Tim Duncan, But he is the greatest power forward in history!"
It’s a pity that day~EbookFREE.me~ Malone’s stepfather was in critical condition, he was not on the scene, but at the evening dinner, Malone flew from Louisiana thousands of miles, saying only: "I can’t imagine that on such a big day, without me!"
Stockton was particularly touching when he announced his retirement. Stockton didn't tell Malone in advance. Malone was also asked by a reporter to know him, and then Malone immediately called Stockton's phone. One year old? Stockton didn't know what was said, only that Malone dropped the phone angrily.
It was not known until later that night, he rode a bicycle, wandering in the streets and alleys of Salt Lake City, tears while riding, and later at Stockton's retirement ceremony, this favorite driving heavy truck The guy was crying and speechless, and tried so many times that he choked on it. Stockton couldn’t help him, so he came over and hugged him. This big guy 21 cm taller than Stockton, just This lies on Stockton's shoulder.
Xie Chen looked at the big monster Carl Malone who stood up for Stockton, and suddenly felt that maybe they did not win the championship in this life, but should they have no regrets in their career? (To be continued...)
PS: The new season has begun, and the new month has also begun.
