Chapter 95: You have to practice free throws

Curry, who ran out of the perimeter, made a catch, but the basketball didn't reach him.
It was Jamison who rushed to the three-point line at the next moment to receive the basketball!
"Damn! Not Curry!"
At this time, three players have approached Curry under Van Gundy's previous tactical arrangement. When they saw the ball fall in Jamison's hands, everyone couldn't help but stunned.
The fastest responder was Howard, who rushed towards Jamison before rushing.
Jamison had just received the ball and was about to raise his hand to shoot. He saw Howard's shadow.
Without any hesitation, Jamison passed the basketball to the ground, and the basketball passed along Howard's legs to the inside.
In the interior, Nick Young is in place.
Nick Young in the reasonable collision zone is not unmarked, and beside him is the Magic guard Nelson.
But when he saw Nielsen defending Nick Young, Van Gundy's heart was half cold.
"bad!"
Although Nick Young is a defender, he has a height of 2.01 meters and Nielsen with a height of only 1.83 meters is too low. He can't form an effective defense against Nick Young under the basket.
Sure enough, after receiving the basketball, Nick Young jumped and dunked. Nielsen tried his best to jump up and defend, but did not interfere with Nick Yang's shot.
Basketball was pushed into the hoop by Nick Yang. Two points are effective!
There are 4 seconds left in the game! Not over yet!
Van Gundy raised his hand subconsciously and wanted to pause, but the action immediately became stiff.
The Magic have not suspended.
In 4 seconds, from the backcourt to the frontcourt, the time is simply not enough, and there is no pause to arrange tactics, and you can only rely on the players on the field to play.
"Last ball! The whole game is tight! Don't let them easily get the ball forward!"
Wang Xiao shouted from the sidelines.
The current lineup of Wizards on the field has a lot of holes in defensive ability, but this does not mean that they are completely undefended.
When you are fully focused, the defensive effect is okay.
With the Wizards’ five players leaving no effort to mark, it is difficult for the Magic to deliver the ball. The five-second serve time is about to pass. Under the circumstance, Matt Barnes can only serve with a scalp. The ball is passed to the only Howard who can receive the ball.
Seeing Howard catch the ball, Van Gundy couldn't help covering his forehead.
He understands Barnes's approach. After all, it is better to pass the ball than to give up the ball to the opponent after the violation.
But the pass to Howard is basically equivalent to proclaiming the defeat of this game in advance!
Howard receiving the pass is subconsciously looking for a teammate to pass the ball, but the surrounding teammates are strictly guarded, and the pass is likely to be broken. The 4 second time is fleeting, not tolerating him There is the slightest hesitation.
He can only hold the ball to the Wizards' backcourt.
auzw.com Howard’s speed is no less than that of a defender, but this is about his sprint speed. When he dribbles the ball, the speed will be greatly reduced. After all, he is not a A center who is good at ball control.
When he rushed to the Wizards' backcourt, there was little time left. In desperation, Howard could only make a jump shot from a three-point line away.
When the basketball was flying in the air, the whistle at the end of the game rang, followed by the basketball flying towards the hoop, and then hitting the backboard hard, without even touching the hoop.
"Howard missed three points and the game ended! The Wizards won the game thrillingly with one point!"
On the court, Fan Gandi looked at Wang Xiao celebrating with the players and shook his head.
"This kid, he's really capable."
At the last moment, a substitute player can be arranged to perform a lore, this kind of courage is not something that a coach can do.
Van Gundy certainly didn't know that Wang Xiao, who had watched the preview of the next situation, was very clear which player had the better chance on the pitch. Nick Young was indeed the player with the least attention on the court and the one with the greatest chance.
Even knowing this, when Xiao Yang received the ball, Wang Xiao still squeezed a sweat.
The brain circuit of the black question mark emoticon is not particularly normal. In the future, it will be a regular visitor of the five fat embarrassing fathoms. He is really a bit afraid of Nick Yang.
Fortunately, Nick Young proved with his performance that he can still trust a little.
Howard's face "skin" is not very good-looking, he is very upset at this time.
Especially when he missed three points, Butler ran over again and said to him with a smile: "Look, you still didn't get 50 points."
Howard's final score was fixed at 49 points. This score is already terrifying, almost scoring half of the team's score, but under the super high score, more free throws are cut.
The reason why the Magic will lose in this game, Howard bears a large part of the responsibility, he made a total of 38 free throws in the game, breaking the NBA regular season single free throw record, but 37 free throws, Howard only shot 19 times The hit rate has just passed 51%, which is pretty bad.
"Guys, you really have to practice free throws." After putting this sentence down, Butler happily ran to celebrate the victory with his teammates.
The victory of this game is very important for the Wizards.
The Magic are one of the Wizards’ main competitors in the East.
After defeating the Magic, the two teams have increased and decreased their records by 28 wins and 12 losses. However, because the Wizards won the Magic one game on the road, the Wizards successfully surpassed the Magic because of the direct victory and loss. Team, return to the second in the east!
In the next two games, the Wizards' opponents are the Bulls and Kings, one in the Western Conference and the other in the Eastern Conference.
The Wizards won these two games with ease and won 8 consecutive victories.
More than half of the season, the Wizards won 30-12 with a 71% win rate, 74.5% after the Cleveland Cavaliers and 72% by the Los Angeles Lakers in the league.
The league is a little numb about this situation. They don’t understand what is going on in this world. A team that makes more than half of the team’s three-point shots can actually get such a record. Is it really so powerful? Or does Wang Xiao, the head coach, really have incredible magic?
People haven't been entangled with this issue for too long, because with the January game, NBA's annual All-Star weekend has already begun preparations.
The 2010 All-Star Weekend was the 59th NBA All-Star Game, and the host was the Dallas Mavericks.
Not long ago, in the first round of All-Star voting, LeBron James led the league in votes.
It is worth mentioning that the Wizards' Curry, Harden, Butler and Jamison are also on the list. Among them, the highest number of votes is Stephen Curry.
Under Wang Xiao's system, Curry's performance is quite "colorful". In December, he had a 50-point performance in a single game. In January, he scored a high score of 44 points against the Magic. In 42 games, Curry averaged 25.3 points per game, ranking seventh in the scoring list, as a rookie quite outstanding.
However, although Curry has many votes, the possibility of being selected as an All-Star starter is not high, because there are two top guards in the east, Iverson and Wade. Although Curry’s popularity is high, but compared to these two There is still a big gap, and the number of votes is far behind these two ranked third.
