Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"beep......"

The score difference was widened to double digits, the game time was getting shorter and shorter, and the situation became more and more unfavorable for O'Neal.

Olney could only call a timeout and redo the arrangement.

At the same time, Barkley also made some arrangements, but no major changes were made. The five players on the field were replaced by TT, Faried, Xiaoka, Bill, and Rubio.

When the two sides returned to the court, O'Neal attacked, and Irving took the ball to the front court to play singles. Obviously, he wanted to turn the game around with his personal ability.

But this time he failed.

When the game reaches this point, there are only the last few minutes left. Whether it is O’Neal or Barkley, they are all serious. If Irving wants to score, he must first break through the defense of the small card. In addition, there are Davis or French in the inside. Reed was waiting for him.

At such a time, if you really dare to come, they really dare to take it.

"Damn."

Irving was a little annoyed that the ball didn't score, but what annoyed him even more was that when they attacked in the next round, Irving gave the ball to Lillard, ran by himself, and opened his hand to Lillard after a circle. Asked for the ball, but Lillard didn't give it, but chose to shoot it himself.

And, people also scored.

This makes Irving unable to even complain, because a goal is a good goal.

In the next few possessions, Irving didn't get much of the ball, as if his teammates were rejecting him.

"Have you seen it?" Qin Hao touched Butler and said with a smile, "You know why I said that they can win if you keep playing like this?"

"Yeah." Butler nodded.

Now he also understood.

Why can Xiaoka win? A big reason is that the O'Neal team played unreasonably, almost all alone.

This is also a disadvantage of having too many defenders. They all need the ball, not to mention that Irving, Lillard, and Walker are not weak, and no one can hold anyone else down.

Irving played a bit alone before, taking up too much ball power, which has made Lillard, Walker and others a little uncomfortable, and the problem has been revealed just now.

Irving wants to play singles and use his personal ability to turn the tide and reverse the game, but Lillard and the others don't think so, why can you Owen be a hero, can't we?

Therefore, during this period of time, the O'Neal team played alone, whoever got the ball played, and basically did not pass the ball.

If it's the intensity of the game in the first quarter, it's okay to play like this, because the player's individual ability is strong enough, but in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, it won't work.

On the other hand, on the Barkley side, with Xiaoka as the core, they played teamwork.

On the offensive end, Xiaoka does not occupy too much of the ball, but he can always stand up at critical moments; on the defensive end, Xiaoka takes the lead and takes the initiative to defend the opponent's arrow players, and the defense is very good, which drives the enthusiasm of his teammates.

Irving's failure to score in singles before was the result of Barkley's teamwork.

Comparing the two, the results speak for themselves.

"boom!"

On the field, the O'Neal team struck the iron again.

At this time, there was not much time left in the game, and O'Neal called another timeout.

"No game, O'Neal lost."

"With a 13-point difference and less than two minutes left in the game, there is no suspense in the game. The O'Neal team played really well in the first half, but in the second half, the whole situation turned to Barkley's side. . …”

"It's not surprising that one side is working alone and the other side is teamwork."

In the audience, fans were talking.

At this time, O'Neal's Irving had already scored 30 points, Lillard 20 points, and Walker 18 points, all of which were very high.

On Barkley's side, Kawhi scored the most, but only 26 points, still not as good as Irving. The others scored even less, none of them scored 20 points.

But Barkley is a dozen points ahead.

In the last minute or so, the O'Neal team was not reconciled to the defeat. They also realized the problem, but time was running out. There was only one minute left, and the score difference was 13 points. They had to strive for the shortest time for every attack. After finishing it, where is there still time to pass the ball more and play cooperatively?

So in the end, it was a one-man game. Irving made one, Lillard made one, and then replaced Walker to make another, all three-pointers, because only then would there be a chance.

It's a pity that, except for Lillard's three-pointer, the other two shots didn't make it, and the O'Neal team completely lost hope.

"drop......"

When the game was over, the score was 121:106.

Shaquille O'Neal threw only one 3-pointer in the last minute, but Barkley made a steady play and scored two, so when the game was over, Barkley led by 15 points.

Several O'Neal players looked at each other and quickly looked away, feeling very upset...

Irving scored 30 points, plus 4 rebounds and 2 assists. Unfortunately, O'Neal lost, and his game-high score became meaningless.

Barkley's here.

Everyone surrounded Xiaoka and hugged each other. The atmosphere was harmonious and happy, which formed a sharp contrast with the O'Neal team.

Xiaoka scored 26 points, plus 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks. The data is very comprehensive, and the score is the highest in the team.

In the end, Xiaoka won the MVP of this Rookie Tournament without any suspense.

In this game, Xiaoka's performance is obvious to all, scoring, rebounding, organization, defense, he has done very well, efficient and stable.

Although Xiaoka is taciturn and seems very low-key, even when he holds the mvp trophy, his face is as dull as always. But everyone knows that the reason why the Barkley team was able to beat the O'Neal team today is that the performance of Xiaoka is very important and plays a big role.

"congratulations."

"Xiaoka, didn't you say before the game that the MVP trophy is not important? Why don't you give this trophy to me, and I will help you cherish it."

"Go away, that's what you call a general. Don't deliberately pursue mvp, focus on the game, and in the end mvp will naturally be in your hands."

Qin Hao, Butler, Lu Wei... The 76ers players also came to the court, hugged Xiaoka, and congratulated him on his MVP.

Seeing Qin Hao, Butler, and Xiaoka stand up together, the media reporters all aimed their cameras at this side, and the clack sounded together.

People are sighing in their hearts. Qin Hao won the MVP in the rookie game the year before, and Butler won the MVP in the rookie game last year, but Butler was still on the Pistons at that time.

And this year, it was Xiaoka who won the MVP again.

It's unbelievable that three young players, three All-Star Rookie MVPs, all on the same team today.

You must know that they are as strong as the Thunder Three Young Masters. All three of them are All-Star players. Even in Qin Hao’s memory of his last life, all three of them won the regular season MVP a few years later, but they were not as good as Qin Hao, Butler, Like Xiaoka, he monopolized the three-time rookie MVP.
