The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 93 The Basket Is Like the Sea

In the previous game, although Curry had a lot of shots, Wang Xiao also set the rule that he must shoot 10 three-pointers in each game.

But basically every shot of Curry is to obtain better shooting conditions under the open space or tactical running pick-and-roll.

Although such Curry has a high scoring efficiency, he lacks the domineering that Curry should have in the future.

In the future, how will Ku Ritian, who led the team to 73 victories and made the whole league tremble, play?

Even if you are defending in my face, even if two or three people surround you at the same time, even if you are one or two steps away from the three-point line, I dare to shoot, and I can make it.

The term unreasonable three-pointer was born for Curry's application.

The current Curry, although he is scrupled by many teams because of his super three-point ability, is far from that frightening level.

What Wang Xiao expects is that Curry can grow up quickly, to the point where as long as he catches the ball, his opponent will be scared, lest Curry will shoot a three-pointer at any time.

In fact, Wang Xiao also knows that it is not appropriate to demand such a high standard for a first-year rookie, and it feels a little bit overwhelmed, but he has no choice. Facing these strong teams, he can only find a breakthrough.

Although Curry is young, in the past few months, Wang Xiao has never stopped the system's training bonus effect on Curry, even when the victory value is tight.

He feels that although the current Curry is not as good as the future Curry, but in terms of shooting ability alone, it should not be much worse, and it is completely worth trying.

If it can be done, then the Wizards will have the opportunity to compete with the Cavaliers, Magic, Celtics and other strong teams in the East. The agreement is to reach the finals within 3 years and win the championship within 5 years. As long as they can return to the playoffs in the first year, the task has been completed.

...

After the timeout, both teams returned to the game.

The Wizards immediately sent the ball to Curry.

With the ball in hand, Curry looked over to Nelson, who was guarding him.

Jameer Nelson is only 1.83 meters tall, and there is a certain gap in height between Curry, who is 1.91 meters. Because of this, when he defends Curry, he sticks very close. Immediately make a three-pointer.

Before playing against the Wizards, Van Gundy specifically analyzed the technical characteristics of the Wizards' players.

Curry's three-pointers are extremely fast and threatening. He is a super shooter no less than Ray Allen.

However, due to his thin body, although Curry can hit the basket, he can cause lower damage, at least much less than his threat outside the three-point line.

So when Nelson defends Curry, he basically sticks close to Curry, preventing the opponent from taking easy shots.

In the three quarters before this game, facing Nelson's defense, Curry rarely attacked with the ball, basically relying on pick-and-roll or running to find a gap to shoot.

But now, Curry has changed his style of play.

After dribbling the ball twice, Curry took a step back to open up a little distance, and then made a three-pointer without hesitation.

Nelson's reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately caught up with the defense. Although he didn't block the shot, it interfered with Curry's line of sight.

"Frame!" The basketball didn't make a hit, but hit the rim and flew high.

Howard stood up like a beast, and grabbed the basketball into his arms.

But before he could do anything, another pair of hands came up and grabbed him.

"Squeak!"

The whistle that sounded immediately made Howard's slightly happy expression for grabbing the rebound immediately darken.

He turned his head and saw Jamison looking at him with a harmless smile.

"Hey, did I say that you are going to let me score 50 points today?" Howard said with some dissatisfaction.

Although Howard's free throw percentage is terrible, he can't stand too many.

After the first three quarters, he has made 28 free throws and made 15 shots, with a shooting percentage of 53%. After three quarters, Howard has scored a large double-double with 37 points and 16 rebounds.

According to this rhythm, after the whole game, it is not impossible for Howard to score 50 points in a single game.

"I don't think you can get 50 points." Jamison said with a chuckle, the expression on his face was full of ridicule for Howard's free throw. "Dude, I didn't laugh at you, even my grandma is more accurate than you in free throws."

Jamison's taunt made Howard even more angry, and the emotional fluctuations further affected Howard's feeling of free throws. This time, he still missed two free throws.

"Look, right, I said you can't get 50 points." Jamison continued to make up the knife at Howard.

"Shut up! I'll show you how awesome I am!" Howard cursed secretly, and turned to retreat.

On the other side, seeing that he missed two free throws, Curry secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was under a lot of pressure at this time.

For every three-pointer he misses from the perimeter, Howard will get a free throw for nothing.

Although it was the head coach Wang Xiao's intention to let him lead the offense as the main attacker, Curry felt that since the head coach trusted him so much, he must show a performance that satisfied the coach.

"It's good luck this time, but it won't be so next time! Every opportunity to attack must be seized! There must be no mistakes!"

The offense and defense switched, and the basketball was in Curry's hands again.

"It's this kid again, what does that Wang Xiao want to do?"

Van Gundy was still thinking about this matter in his mind, and Curry launched another attack on the court.

This time, Curry directly passed Nelson from outside the three-point line and rushed to the inside.

Nelson immediately chased after him for a moment, and at the same time, Curry suddenly stopped and retreated, retreating to the outside of the three-point line to take off and shoot.

The quick disguised transformation made Nelson unable to react in time. He could only raise his hand symbolically to interfere, but he couldn't block Curry's vision at all.

"brush!"

Although the continuous fast dribbling slightly affected the touch of the shot, but because the vision was not disturbed, Curry still scored a three-pointer with the ball hollow into the net.

"Come again?" Van Gundy frowned and walked to the sidelines, shouting to the players on the field: "Switch defense! Vince, you go and stare at that kid!"

Carter nodded and looked at Curry.

Although he hasn't won any substantive defensive awards, Carter's defensive ability is definitely considered top-notch among defenders, which is due to his excellent physical fitness and excellent judgment.

Letting Carter switch to guard Curry, Van Gundy has already attached great importance to Curry. After all, with Nelson's height, he is only suitable for facing Curry on the court. Players in other positions of the Wizards can use the height gap to displace singles against Nelson.

But what Van Gundy didn't expect was that after switching defenses, facing Carter's defense, Curry actually made another three-pointer from outside the three-point line!

"Stephen Curry! A precise three-pointer! He completely ignored Carter who was defending in front of him! It seems that today's basket is like an ocean to this young man!"
