MM Racing Chapter 256
Chapter 256
The Nets players slowly walked towards the rest area.
Head coach Frank stood at the edge of the court and patted Carter on the shoulder first.
He didn't say anything, but his appearance actually made Carter feel uncomfortable more than scolding him.
Due to his impulse and mistakes in the two rounds, the team's score, which was already behind, was widened.
Only two people supported the offense, which was really tiring.
Carter missed Kidd and couldn't help but move his eyes to Kidd in a wheelchair.
Kidd in the wheelchair looked at his face full of vicissitudes, and his heart became more and more anxious.
The two looked at each other in silence for a long time.
Kidd had consulted the team doctor before the start of this game.
For the sake of his future career, the team doctor firmly rejected his request to play.
Kidd also understood that his injury was indeed serious and was still in a healing stage.
If he forced a comeback, no one could guarantee what the consequences would be if he was injured again. Besides, even now he still felt a dull pain when walking.
It's not easy to steal at all. Vigorous exercise will directly lead to serious consequences.
The team can't joke about Kidd's future, and Kidd's agent will not agree to this approach.
It's the most critical stage of the finals.
The reality is in front of us. When the team needs us the most, we can't do our best on the court.
Can we only watch the score between the team and the opponent get bigger and bigger off the court? This torment is intolerable for every athlete!
Maybe there is only one chance in life.
Injury, injury!
Jason Kidd sighed, hating himself for being useless, and hating his opponent for being too despicable!
Coach Frank drew the tactics, Carter stood for a long time, and then sat down in the rest area.
But he didn't listen to the tactics, and there was only a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
"Vince... Vince..."
Coach Frank called Carter several times before he came back to his senses.
"Vince, it will be fine. Don't worry too much. The situation of the game is just as we expected. It will definitely not be easy. You also saw the Spurs' devil's home court. The opponent gave 120% of his effort, while we only gave 90% at most. We are far from enough!"
"Roy, I hope you and Carter have more interaction and cooperation. You can be bolder in controlling the ball and don't have psychological burden. Since we have come this far, everyone must believe in you!"
Roy nodded silently. At this point, he must promise to take more responsibilities, especially in defense and organizing offense!
Carter is an extremely sharp spear. I must learn how to use him like Kidd!
"Vince, let's play pick-and-roll in the next round. I don't think Duncan can limit the two of us. Don't worry too much. I'm here! We can support the team together, just like we did in the last game..."
In the Spurs' rest area on the other side, the players were not as relaxed as they imagined.
Popovich was extremely strict in this game that could decide the championship:
"Listen to me, everyone! Don't be careless. Those bastards from New Jersey will turn the score around in a minute. Don't underestimate them. Cheer up and don't underestimate the enemy. Isn't the lesson we learned in the last game enough?"
"Bruce, Vince Carter's shot is wrong. Try not to let him break through. Keep a little distance, block his breakthrough space, and force him to shoot!"
"Manu, the team needs you to connect the team on the offensive end. I need you to bring both Tim and Tony into the game and integrate them together!"
...
Two balls After the team adjusted, the referee blew the whistle to continue the game.
The Nets sent the ball from the baseline. The first round was Jefferson dribbling the ball across half court. In order to further share the pressure for Carter,
Roy received the ball from the baseline through Lagabell's off-ball screen.
Lagabell was still too small, and Duncan easily squeezed through Lagabell's screen.
After Roy got the ball, he could only face the defense of Parker and Duncan alone.
Unguarded Lagabell wanted to cut from the outside.
Roy passed the ball to Lagabell, and then quickly cut to the basket.
But the Spurs seemed to be prepared. Horry and Ginobili under the basket double-teamed Roy after he received the ball.
At this time, Carter on the outside had vacated his position. Roy turned around and passed the ball, and the basketball was stuffed straight into Carter's hands on the outside.
Carter faced Bruce Bowen's defense and wanted to break through, but found that Bowen was nearly two steps away from him.
"Asshole, he can't see"Can you help me?"
Carter felt that Bowen looked down on him.
Carter had to seize such a big gap, even if his touch was not good at this time.
After two steps on the outside, Carter chose to jump in front of Bowen again, but this time it was a three-pointer.
Bowen was fully focused on defense, and he was too far away from Carter.
Although Bowen's reaction was also very fast, the interference he caused to Carter was very limited.
It seemed that it was destined that bad luck fell on the Nets.
Carter's shot, the basketball turned around in the basket, and once again swiped out of the basket!
Everything was going in the wrong direction. Roy under the basket was sandwiched by Duncan and Horry, and he couldn't grab the rebound.
Duncan in the air Ken passed the ball to Parker in the distance.
McInnis was very active in trying to use a pounce to intercept the basketball halfway through Duncan's pass.
Unfortunately, Parker's reaction was also faster. He suddenly accelerated, jumped quickly, and caught the basketball from the air.
The last one turned around and avoided the rush of McGuinness, and dribbled the ball again to the Nets' half court at a sprint speed.
The French sports car sprinted at full speed, and in terms of speed, it was like a wild horse running away!
After Carter made a mistake in the shot, he had already chosen to return to defense.
He knew that the Spurs were heavily guarded under the basket, and Roy's chance of grabbing the frontcourt rebound was slim.
Facing the galloping Parker. After Carter made a mistake on the offensive end, he was bound to want to make a mistake on the defensive end. Make your own contribution
Carter stood outside the free throw line in advance, opened his arms to prepare for the impact from Parker,
Parker was not in a hurry during the fast break. He was so fast that he had no intention of slowing down even when facing Carter!
He used the French gyro turn again during the acceleration, which was very effective in the last game,
He did not slow down at all during the breakthrough, took a tentative step under his crotch, and then used his left foot as the axis,
After moving sideways, he turned 360 degrees and dodged to Carter's weak side. Facing Carter who was chasing him,
Parker was not in a hurry, rushed into the basket and used a reverse layup after a pull-up, scoring under Carter's eyes!
38 to 28
The Spurs widened the gap to double digits,
Parker's French gyro The signature moves of the spinning top became more and more confident.
Since the last game, the effect was significant. During the few days of rest, he practiced crazily in private, and the result now is the crystallization of his hard work.
The effort was not in vain, which may be the greatest reward for those who work hard!
Carter felt stupid. Once again, he did not contribute anything to the team on both offense and defense.
Roy behind him was late, even though he tried his best.
But Parker, who was 1.88 meters tall, was too fast. Even if he gritted his teeth and sprinted for a long time, he could not catch up with Parker.
Roy patted Carter's shoulder comfortingly:
"It's okay, brother. I'm here for this game. I will lead everyone to victory. As long as you trust me, I will do what I say!"
