NBA: Ultimate Tormentor

Chapter 7 Nash without a suit, so fierce!
Back at the apartment at night, Qin Dong, who had washed up and was about to fall asleep, received a text message from Curry.

[Strength is the capital of a man. 】

In addition, there is a picture of Curry himself bench pressing 120kg.

If his baby face was covered, people who didn't know would think it was some hunk.

"Fuck!" Qin Dong couldn't help laughing and cursing when he saw it.

The purpose of Curry sending Qin Dong text messages with pictures is not only to show off his strength to Qin Dong, but also to stimulate Qin Dong to carry out strength training.

"This Curry is indeed a good teammate. I am afraid that I will neglect to exercise and maintain my health too early, so as to miss the best period of ball growth."

"However, I don't drink wolfberries now, and I have never fallen behind in terms of strength confrontation or skill development."

Qin Dong and his college teammate Zhu Huo Ledi were born in the same year and the same month, both in June 1990.

Qin Dong is now less than 19 years and 5 months old, and it is indeed the golden age of raising the ball.

During this period, the ability of players improved very rapidly.

Not just muscle strength, but also personal skills.

Of course, once you miss the golden period of the best goal increase, or, during this period, the team trains you in the wrong direction, no matter how talented you are, it will be difficult to be promoted to the league super giant.

The next day.

The Golden State Warriors are at the Phoenix Suns.

In the Warriors locker room.

Warriors coach Don Nelson, at this time, once again emphasized the offensive and defensive tactics of the Warriors tonight.

On the offensive end, let the outside double guns do the work.

But the difference from the first game is that Don Nelson allowed Curry to have more possession of the ball and let him organize the offense of connecting teams.

Monta Ellis, as the end point of the outside line, enjoys a lot of firing rights, um, that is, shooting rights.

As for the defensive end.
The perimeter defense is naturally handed over to Qin Dong.

Just like the previous game, besides defending his own people, Qin Dong also had to collude with and help his teammates to establish a defensive system with Qin Dong as the core.

It's still crazy
Among the current NBA coaches, except for the mad scientist Don Nelson, it is difficult for other coaches to have this courage.

You know, no matter how strong the outside players are, like the basketball gods Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and the future Heat James and Spurs Kawhi Leonard, they can only achieve single-point blasting.

It's hard to be the same as the inside big center, sweeping the penalty area and defending a large area.

But Don Nelson handed over the important work of the team's defensive pillar, the defensive core, to this rookie striker from China.

Of course, Qin Dong tonight, and even the entire Warriors, felt tremendous pressure on the defensive end.

The son of the backcourt engine - Steve Nash.

Overwhelming bully - Amare Stoudemire.

Plus, there's the Brazilian Lightning Barbosa.

Jordan's successor Grant Hill who was reborn from the ashes.

The inside big Channing Frye who is proficient in three-point long-range shooting.

and many more.

Before the game, the Warriors locker room was eerily quiet after Don Nelson laid out the play.

Especially tonight's starting No. 4, the Warriors' second-year rookie 'Anthony Randolph', he will face Amare Stoudemire.

Anthony Randolph was worried, as if the picture of being dunked by the bully had appeared in his mind.

"Hey, buddy." Qin Dong took the initiative to walk to the side of Anthony Randolph, who was timid before fighting, and patted him on the shoulder, showing a bright smile.

"Is there something wrong, Qin?" Anthony Randolph came back to his senses immediately, fearing that someone would see through his inner panic, he hesitated and said.

"Brother, let's double-team Amare Stoudemire tonight and let him taste our Golden State hot pot." Qin Dong, who was just a rookie in the first year, spoke like an old ball ruffian.

"Hmm." Anthony Randolph was slightly taken aback, and then nodded solemnly, the fear of Stoudemire in his eyes dissipated a bit.

Qin Dong not only comforted Anthony Randolph, but also mobilized before the game in the low morale locker room, dispelling the fear of teammates about the Suns' run-and-bomb tactics and motivating everyone to fight.

As the coach, Don Nelson was relieved to see this scene.

"I seem to see the leadership charm of those old guys in Qin's body."

"A simple sentence can rekindle the fighting spirit of teammates."

Don Nelson thought to himself.

at this time
Rejected by the team boss Monta Ellis, Stephen Curry, who was a little transparent in the team, was also full of passion after hearing Qin Dong's passionate and generous mobilization. He hammered his chest angrily and said loudly: "In addition to letting Phoenix eat hot pot tonight, we also want to let them see our Golden State's dunking level."

Uh.
what.
Everyone was startled.

You, Stephen, are you going to dunk somebody tonight?
Looking at the surprised eyes of his teammates, Curry, who accidentally said the truth, uh, or his basketball dream, couldn't help but blush.

"Haha, Stephen, I also believe that you can dunk Amare Stoudemire." Qin Dong laughed first.

The words that hurt little but were extremely insulting made Curry and Qin Dong roll his eyes speechlessly.

At this time, there was a burst of laughter in the locker room.

The teammates burst into laughter.

Even Monta Ellis, who was at odds with Curry, with his shoehorn face, showed an ugly smile at this time.

Tonight's starting lineups:

[Warriors]: Stephen Curry, Monta Ellis, Qin Dong, Anthony Randolph and Andris Biedrins.

[Sun]: Steve Nash, Leandro Barbosa, Grant Hill, Amare Stoudemire and Channing Frye.

After the game started, the Suns tried to speed up the pace of the game.

Nash advanced with the ball, and the bully Stoudemire made a high pick-and-roll.

Curry was hooked and Nash went to the basket.

At this time, the opposing Warriors started No. 4 Anthony Randolph and could only defend Nash.

Known for his mobility and explosive power, the little bully saw the opportunity and went straight down. At the same time, he pointed his finger at the basket, signaling Nash to pass the lob.

The Suns' Channing Frye crouched in the left corner, pinning down Warriors center Andris Biedrins.

at this time
Stoudemire has only Curry in front of him, er, no one.

Just when Nash was about to pass an alley-oop, he suddenly shook his wrist. The ball was originally passed to the basket, but it flew in the direction of Grant Hill, who was 45 degrees to the left wing outside the three-point line.

"Fuck!"

"This Nash actually predicted my prediction."

"Nash, who doesn't wear a suit and doesn't have one hand in his pocket, is he so fierce?"

Qin Dong, who had been observing Nash's movements, keenly captured this step, but was caught by Nash in advance.

The ball was given to Grant Hill.

Grant Hill, who was wide open, barely made any adjustments after receiving a pass from Nash.

Raising your hand is a three-pointer.

This is the level of a top point guard. Not only has a good vision, but also the passing strength and angle will be adjusted according to the characteristics of his teammates so that they can shoot comfortably.

"when!"

so close.

Shots hit the iron.

popped out.

Rebound Scramble!
Stoudemire ignored Curry next to him, and with a little effort from his strong body, he rushed directly to the basket and competed for offensive rebounds.

Seeing that the basketball is about to be taken off by the bully.

A big hand came out of nowhere.

With a sound of "snap!", he stabbed out the rebound that was almost held firmly by the bully. Although the sun still had the ball, it destroyed his second attack and the opportunity to score directly.

The TNT live broadcast room that is broadcasting the game.

"This 'Qin' from China, with his sense of rebounding, is quite like Sir Alex back then." Fliggy Charles Barkley said with a smile.

"Sir Charles, it's really surprising. I didn't expect you to be optimistic about Qin." Kenny Smith said in surprise.

"Of course. He was still in college, and I was his fan." Charles Barkley said seriously.

"Sir Charles, could it be that you took someone else's money?" Kenny Smith looked suspiciously at his old partner.

Barkley rolled his eyes at Kenny Smith.

on the field.

Looking at the little bully who was serving the baseline, Qin Dong sighed in his heart: "It's really worthy of being a bully. Even though he was slightly delayed by Curry when he was rushing to grab the rebound, he still jumped so fast and so high."

"But I rushed directly, and I was more fully before the bounce. With the addition of [Elite Rebounder (Bronze)], I could barely destroy his rebound."

The bully sent the ball to Nash.

Curry posted it immediately.

Nash made an induced start in disguise and directly passed Curry.

Nash, who is known as the son of the wind, is actually not particularly fast in absolute terms. What he is really fast is the rhythm and the ability to read defenses.

After passing Curry and attracting the help defense, a coquettish pass from the back of the head was given to Grant Hill who cut in. The latter saw Qin Dong quickly return to the defense and got stuck on his breakthrough route.

Grant Hill didn't attack the basket, but scored a mid-range jumper.

"Shh!" sounded.

Jump shot!

"The Warriors are still too young in front of the seasoned Suns. Qin alone is still unable to support the Warriors' defense."

"I feel that at most three quarters, it will be reduced to garbage time, or even two quarters, and the Warriors will be shot down by the sun."

Kenny Smith said.

"No. The Warriors are not as fragile as you think. I believe Qin, he will find a way." Charles Barkley supported the Warriors and Qin Dong at this time.
