I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 694: Brothers and Finals!

Remember [New] for a second,! Because Chen Xiao stayed on the court at the beginning of the second quarter, of course, this was to continue to maintain the inside advantage of the Bobcats lineup.

The five players on the Bobcats court at this time were Chen Xiao, Kidd, DeRozan, Roy and Cescurry.

The Bobcats' three inside centers, Cousins, Roy Hibbert and Lopez did not play for a minute in this game.

The game was intense, and the three were a little slow, and Jordan worried that they would not be able to keep up with the pace of the game.

Against a team like the Bucks, it could collapse in three minutes.

If your defense can't keep up with Curry, Ray Allen, it can really give you three or four, or even four or five threes in three minutes.

In the NBA playoffs, a maximum of 12 players can be played in a game, and these three centers cannot be played. The Bobcats can actually play only nine players in this game.

This is also the reason why the lineup is not as thick as the Bucks if the Bobcats can't use their center, and this is why Chen Xiao must play in the second quarter of this game.

Look at the rotation on this side of the Bucks, Nene, Marion, Durant, Shane, Curry.

In fact, if Triporte hadn't been too afraid of Chen Xiao, he would have brought Durant up too. In fact, replacing Durant with Ariza, the Bucks' rotation even had a very strong combat effectiveness.

By the way, Curry didn't play the full first quarter. In the Bucks game, the rotation of Curry, Dina and Ray Allen is very flexible. Generally speaking, Ray Allen plays six minutes, Dina plays six minutes. Replacing Ray Allen, played nine minutes in the first quarter, and Ray Allen replaced Curry.

Then, Curry would lead the rotation in the second quarter.

Of course, sometimes the Bucks' rotation isn't like that, and sometimes it's Dina or Ray Allen leading the rotation.

But no matter what, these three players with similar styles are all three-pointers, and they can play that kind of basketball that is very offensive and unfriendly to interior players.

So, Ray Allen and Curry, really 48 minutes in the Bucks lineup, every minute has to have one on the floor and then be surrounded by either of the remaining two of the three, both Has an extremely powerful explosion.

Don't think that Ray Allen can't play that kind of basketball anymore, it's just that with Curry, he doesn't play anymore.

In this game, the three players felt very good, which is why Jordan did not dare to go to the inside three, but instead used Chen Xiao to maintain the team's inside advantage.

but…

In the face of a rotation like the Bucks, even if Chen Xiao is on the court, Jordan is not very confident that Chen Xiao can keep the inside advantage of the first quarter for the Bobcats.

Nene, Marion, Battier, Durant…

Don't look at the fact that the Bucks don't have a traditional center, in fact, they have four forwards who are over 2 meters tall.

And these four strikers are not only tall, they are good at rebounding, and more importantly, they all have excellent defensive ability.

Therefore, Chen Xiao's role in staying on the court in the second quarter is more to hope that the team's inside line will not collapse. Before David West comes up, the inside line will not collapse, and don't madly lose backcourt rebounds, and then let Curry When attacking, don't play that super rhythm to pull the score away.

As for being a little behind, there is really no way to do this.

Can Jordan's goal of four or five minutes in this rotation be accomplished?

This depends on whether Chen Xiao can withstand the inevitable robbery of the Bucks.

At the same time, it also depends on whether Curry, the little Curry, can stand up to his brother.

This season is Cescurry's third season in the NBA, and he is in the same class with Beasley and Jimmy Butler.

He came to the NBA, and his performance in the past three seasons has been very good, although because of Roy, Rose, Kidd and others, he has not got many playing opportunities.

But in the limited playing opportunities, whether in the regular season or the playoffs, his performance is very satisfactory.

In the regular season, his three-point shooting percentage in each of these three seasons has exceeded 45%. Well, you read that right. Curry's three-point shooting percentage has exceeded 45% in his career. , At the same time, every season is at 45%, a player who has played more than three seasons in NBA history, has a three-point shooting rate of more than 45% in each season of his career, and averaged more than 1 shot per game. Only Curry.

There is only this one in history. Although this record seems very unpopular, this record is actually a bullshit.

So, don't look at his lack of opportunities and time, but as a disciple of Chen Xiao, he is very trusted by Jordan.

Therefore, he played very well in the playoffs in his rookie season, with a record of 100% hitting 5 or more three-pointers in a single game.

And now, Jordan asked him to buy Rose a break for those few minutes to deal with his older brother, and it was Jordan's compliment for his performance over the past three seasons.

I have to say that Jordan chose to trust Curry so much this time and used Curry to deal with his older brother, Curry. This really didn’t trust the wrong person.

In history, little Curry always played an amazing performance every time he beat his brother. Many people ridiculed that he had the "Brother Noble Phantasm" on him.

Historically, in the playoffs, little Curry completed a steal on his brother, and then used his brother's method to complete a three-point chase, which is also a famous historical painting.

Of course, in this time and space, as Xiao Curry's master, Chen Xiao certainly knew that Xiao Curry always had a plot for his brother, that is, he always felt that he was no worse than his brother.

Well, my brother is too good. As a younger brother, a younger brother with pursuit, he is always unconvinced.

This kind of dissatisfaction actually had signs of it very early.

When Cescurry and his brother were in high school, they almost got into a fight for this reason. Well, the two are still on the same team. If it wasn't for their father, Curry, I'm afraid...

Cescurry told Chen Xiao that if their father hadn't come suddenly, he would have knocked down his brother with one punch.

Why is Curry so confident?

Because, the fact that he and his brother play boxing is not a once or twice, but a commonplace...

Historically, Cescurry had something to say about his relationship with his brother: "We were playing together, and every time we played in practice, Stephen and I were opponents, we played against each other, marked each other. Every time we get to a certain point in a game where we both stop playing, we just do little things, elbow each other, things like that, and we end up fighting, and even after we go to the locker room, we're still chattering, Fighting, we just got tangled up and grabbed each other and then our dad came in and pulled us apart in front of the whole team, and now it's kind of embarrassing to think about it every time. But, I mean, in Growing up, it always happens with siblings of similar age together."

The age difference between Curry and Curry is 2 years apart. Anyone who has siblings knows that such an age is indistinguishable from the age, and no one obeys the age of the other. Convinced, all want to be a big brother, this is a common thing.

In this time and space, although there have been changes, the competition between Curry Jr. and Curry has become even more intense, and the situation that the two do not like each other is even more intense.

There is no way, because of Chen Xiao, Curry's strength is much stronger than history. This young man with a high ball quotient has become much stronger in offense and defense under the blessing of Chen Xiao.

In history, the gap between him and his brother was even bigger, and they fought so fiercely.

Now that the gap between him and his brother is even smaller, can he still compete a little less?

How can this be? !

So, Jordan soon saw how miraculous his move was.

The second quarter started, and the Bobcats took the lead. As soon as Chen Xiao came up, he received a pass from Roy in the middle distance. Facing Nene's defense, he turned around and broke into the basket. With the help of Marion, he dunked. Get it, get two points.

Immediately afterwards, the Bucks attacked. Curry dribbled the ball through the half court under Curry's full-court pressing. With the help of Durant, Curry passed the half-court smoothly, but Curry still did not follow suit. Unforgiving is pressing Curry.

At this time, the unrelenting little Curry, and the little Curry who was forced by him very fiercely, both saw a strong fighting spirit in each other's eyes.

This is the fetters of a sibling rivalry.

The two have grown up in this confrontation throughout their entire basketball careers.

In the face of such a defense, if the opponent was not Curry Jr., Curry would have handed the ball long ago.

However, this person is little Curry, who has never wanted to be the younger brother of his younger brother.

The younger brother is seeking a confrontation with the older brother, will he be counseled?

of course not!

Even if this kind of play is unreasonable, he will not be cowardly!

For little Curry, this may be less than half a quarter, it is the most important moment of his basketball career, it is the most important moment for him to prove that he is no worse than his brother!

If the world is a game at this time, then at this time, little Curry may already have a bunch of motivational buffs on him.

After all, the current little Curry has used the will of his basketball career to press the few minutes he may not know.

Clap!

On the court, Curry, who dribbled too much and couldn't throw off the defense with explosive force like Rose, was stealed by his younger brother.

Fortunately, little Curry's explosiveness is not so strong. After finishing stealing against Curry, when he dribbled the ball to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, not only his brother had already stood in front of him, the Bucks The rest of the team's defense has also been put in place.

Seriously, Curry's attack is unreasonable. He should have handed the ball to Chen Xiao or Roy.

However, little Curry, who has advanced beyond the three-point line, has no intention of handing the ball at all. Just like his brother just now, he also has no reason to be cowardly in the face of this confrontation with his brother.

Change direction! Change direction! Traverse!

In the face of his brother's defense, Curry Jr. tricked his brother into cutting the ball with two changes of directions. After a very wonderful dribble to the right, he shook his brother away, and then drifted and threw it from beyond the three-point line. This basketball.

A swipe!

Three point hit!

When they saw this ball, Jordan and Curry on the sidelines were stunned.

To be honest, the fans on the sidelines are also very dumb.

Although little Curry's action frequency is much lower than his brother's, there is no doubt that this is Curry's style of play.

Shot Curry in front of Curry with Curry's style of play!

This is too incredible, right?

At this time, on the court, little Curry, who had just done such an incredible thing, went back to defense without any celebration.

Because his older brother Curry started a fast break without seeing if the ball was hit after his shot.

Looking at the back of No. 30, Curry, who was carrying No. 31, was chasing after him frantically.

But in the end, little Curry still didn't catch up with his brother. No matter his height, speed, dexterity, technique, and even shooting, he was a little worse than his brother in all aspects.

In the end, he could only watch helplessly as his brother received a pass from Durant behind him and made a fast break layup.

39 to 36!

The Bucks recovered by two points.

These three rounds are three rounds that are separated from the tactics of the two teams.

At the same time, the next four minutes were also four minutes away from the tactics of the two teams.

What people see is not the matchup between Chen Xiao and Durant that should be seen the most.

What the audience saw was a showdown between the Curry brothers.

Although it is not a duel between the two super MVPs, Chen Xiao and Durant, the duel between the Curry brothers still excited the fans in Charlotte's hometown and made the audience in front of the TV feel novel.

If the Curry brothers are the leading players of their respective NBA teams and let the two face each other for an entire game, even if Curry is much stronger than the one in history, he will also be beaten by his brother.

However, this game is not a whole game. For Little Curry, this is a matchup of only four minutes, and in these four minutes, his chicken blood time can be completely covered, putting his lifelong chicken blood and Four minutes after the buff hit, little Curry, as a role player, had an intractable battle with his MVP-level brother, who had been crowned a divine beast by Barkley, under the eyes of the whole world.

In the end, when little Curry was replaced by Rose sweating profusely, in the applause and cheers of the audience, the score at this time was 46 to 44, and the Bobcats also led by 2 points.

"Seth, congratulations, this will be the greatest moment of your life!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

The father and son hugging each other off the court, as well as on the court with their arms on their hips, biting their braces and watching their brother and father hugging off the court, the three father and son are a wonderful group of famous paintings under the eyes of the United States and the world at this time.

The old Curry was right. These four minutes were the greatest moment in Curry's life, because this moment almost affected the final outcome of the game.

Because of these four minutes, little Curry used his sweat and madness, which not only won a precious rest time for Rose, but also consumed a lot of Curry's physical strength.

After Ross came on the court, he obviously felt that he had less pressure on Curry. Curry, who should have played the full second quarter, could only be replaced by Dina with 3 minutes left in the game, and Dina faced off. Ross, this is definitely more disadvantageous.

Can I not go to Dina?

sure.

If there's only one Ray Allen on the court, don't blame the Bobcats and Jordan for Cousins ​​or Lopez and Roy Hibbert.

So, in the second quarter, Ross exploded!

Rose, who scored 18 points in less than 8 minutes, scored 7 of 8 in a single quarter, and led the Bobcats to a 10-point lead 74-64 at halftime.

To be honest, for the Bucks and Bobcats, 10 points is not much, but in the same way, if the opponent's state is similar to himself, then the same 10 points are almost like a moat.

So much so that by the end of the game, even though the Bucks had been chasing frantically in the second half, they were disrupted by Curry and ultimately failed to catch up.

134 to 128!

The Charlotte Bobcats beat the Milwaukee Bucks at home, the only game in the series to be within 10 points.

In this game, Curry, who was 7 of 15 three-pointers, scored 35 points, while Curry was 3 of 4 and scored 8 points.

There is a huge difference in the numbers between the two sides.

Too big to be one level.

But anyone who has watched the game knows that Curry's role cannot be reflected in the data.

Because Curry went 3-for-4 from three-pointers in the first quarter, and only 4-of-11 from 3-pointers in the next three quarters.

To be more precise, Curry is 3-for-9 from 3-point range after the showdown with his brother.

Little Curry used the most important four minutes of his career to disrupt the rhythm of his brother's game and the rhythm of the Bucks' game.

It also won the most important victory for the Bobcats on the road to defending their title.

Let's just say, without Curry, would the Bobcats win this game?

This is really hard to say.

At the very least, everyone up and down the Bobcats is not that bottomless.

So, at the next Eastern Conference champion award ceremony, Cescurry became the team's favorite, everyone was congratulating him, everyone was celebrating with him, hugging.

On the other side, Curry and Xiaodu, as well as Ray Allen, were a little sad at this time.

Bucks coach Terry Porter is even more sad to beat his chest.

Those unreasonable minutes!

The Curry brothers are all up, but Curry Jr. is a role player, and it consumes too much after being up, and Jordan can just not use it.

But Curry is the Bucks' game metronome, the most important tactical core. He consumes too much after getting up, and they can't make up for it if they want to.

"Why am I so stupid to watch their brothers duel!"

At that time, he really underestimated the effect of those few clocks on the game. It should be that everyone underestimated it.

Seriously, not Terry Porter, even Popovich, with Curry's importance to the Bucks and Curry's status in the Bucks, he wants to teach himself 'stupid' on the court. Oudoudou', Bobo has no reason not to let.

Therefore, even Bobo looked at the Bobcats who had advanced to the east, and could only cry out regretfully: "It's still immature!"

The immaturity here, of course, is talking about Curry. It's not his fault that Terry Porter didn't stop it, and he can't stop it.

The source is still Curry, this time putting himself above the team.

Otherwise, maybe their opponent in the finals is really likely to be the Bucks.

For Bobo, the Bobcats and Chen Xiao were the opponents he was most reluctant to meet.

Even though the Bobcats may seem a little weaker than the Bucks, he still doesn't want to touch Chen Xiao.

Not only Bobo, but maybe all the teams in the league have this idea.

"After all, this is a man who can perform miracles!"
