Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 91 Marksman Korver
Timeout back, Nuggets' offense right.

Because of Korver's playing, the Nuggets' tactics have also undergone some changes. When Barry Sr. is on the court, his duty is to cut to the basket more, while Korver is running back and forth between the baselines to find open positions. The opportunity to make a move.

Anthony was also trying his best to cooperate with Korver. After Camby helped him with an off-ball pick-and-roll, he did not run to the free throw line, but directly called Nene to block Johnson and Marion for three seconds. Zone.

Korver, who was running out, turned his head and forgot, it was already empty, and then, Miller's ready-to-go pass flew straight towards him.

Korver was indescribably moved. He had never been treated like this in the 76ers. The boss of the team was actually creating opportunities for him, and they were creating opportunities for him from the very beginning. treatment that was not possible before.

After catching the ball, he aimed directly at the basket. In the unguarded state, it was no different from his usual training. He practiced thousands of moves, and now he copied them coherently.

Hand up, ball down.

"Shh!"

A solid three-pointer hit!
Korver, you scored the first point of your Nuggets career just after you debuted!
"Damn it!" Suns coach Frank Johnson couldn't help cursing. He also couldn't lose this game. Losing to his assistant coach would be embarrassing.

"Joe, blow up that white man!" Johnson saw Joe Johnson passing by him, and reminded him loudly.

To say that he made an inside-out analysis of the Nuggets before the game, and basically analyzed that the three-pointer is the Nuggets' weakness, but he never expected such a white shooter to pop up at this moment, and he I don't know him either. Thinking about it, he's probably a rookie. If he has to say that he missed it, he has nothing to vent his anger on at the moment.

Joe Johnson nodded, and then ran to the frontcourt.

Johnson arrived in the frontcourt, and after doing a few pick-and-rolls with his teammates, he quickly fell into position. The other teammates of the Suns also quickly pulled away, and the ball quickly came into his hands.

Swinging from side to side and relying on hitting, Korver has a good three-pointer, but defense is his weakness. At this moment, Johnson's strong body pushes him back again and again.

With a "bang", Korver was staggered and almost fell, but Johnson had already turned around and shot back.

It was too late for Korver to defend.

"Shh!"

The ball fell into the net pocket steadily, and Johnson easily succeeded in singles.

After Johnson succeeded, he couldn't help turning his head and forgetting to glance at Korver in a slightly provocative way.

After all, Korver is a rookie, and he is also a regular at the end of the bench in the 76ers. Johnson not only started this season, but also performed very well. After being stared at by Johnson, he suddenly felt a little guilty.

At this moment, a hand suddenly patted on the shoulder, and he was so frightened that he looked back and found that it was Anthony.

"Don't be in a daze, you are still on the court, it's okay, you scored 3 points just now and he scored 2 points, didn't you? You have done more than him." Anthony said meaningfully, and ran to the frontcourt after speaking go.

Korver was stunned for a moment before he realized that his face turned red. If Anthony is a rookie like him, although his strength is not the same, how could he admit defeat mentally? He glanced at Anthony's back and squeezed After pinching his fist, he also ran to the front court.

The Nuggets' running and bombing entered the Suns' half court, and Miller's steady style of play firmly controlled the rhythm. After this period of training, he gradually adapted to the tight rhythm of the audience. At this moment, Marbury He, who has the advantage in height, seems to be able to do a job with ease at the moment.

The rest of the Nuggets kept running back and forth, and soon, Anthony used the pick-and-roll created by Nene to get an open shot.

Anthony did not immediately choose to shoot, but suddenly took two steps back before making the shot.

But this time, it put him in the danger of an accident. Originally, he was standing at a certain distance from the defenders on the inside and outside. A move by the reason made Johnson, who was defending Korver from outside the three-point line, smell a hint of opportunity.

To be honest, Johnson looked down on Korver a little bit. The goal just now was completely open. Now Anthony scored again from the distance of him. Without hesitation, he chose to give up Korver and fly to block. Guy Anthony.

Like a rabbit, the goshawk flew up from behind Anthony.

With a fierce force, his face was full of ferocity, and he was about to cover Anthony!
It's a big cap!
But at this moment, the situation suddenly changed. Anthony, who had originally made a shooting action, suddenly retracted the ball, and then quickly moved his non-pivot foot to the side.

Johnson was caught off guard and immediately flew past Anthony.

At this time, Anthony leisurely flicked the ball outside the three-point line, and the ball was in Korver's hands again.

Korver was stunned for a moment after receiving the ball. He also didn't expect that Anthony could create opportunities for him, but as soon as he got the ball, he followed up with a quick shot.

"Good response~
When Anthony saw the spinning ball, he couldn't help smiling and sighing.

But maybe it was not ready when receiving the ball, or the shot was a little hasty, Korver's three-pointer this time did not go as smoothly as before.

"Dangdang!"

With a crisp sound, the ball hit the edge of the back basket, and then bounced into the air.

Camby under the basket was entangled with Voskull at this time, and there was a slight muffled sound from the collision of muscles, and neither of them jumped up when they got stuck in each other.

Stoudemire and Nene in the three-second zone also ran towards the landing point of the rebound for the first time.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from them, and grabbed the ball into his arms before it fell.

"Melo!" Nene couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw Anthony who suddenly rushed up.

To say that Anthony is not a bouncing guy, he just used his quick first step to jump ahead of the two, and the ball may have hit the edge, and it tended to bounce back, so it was caught from behind. Anthony caught.

As soon as he got the ball, Anthony threw the ball to the right 45 corners without stopping for almost a second.

Almost at the same time as he threw the ball, Anthony's voice sounded at the same time: "Just shoot, we have us on the rebound!"

A simple sentence, but it fully demonstrated the trust between teammates. After Korver received the ball, he felt a heat in his heart. The basket flew away.

Korver looked at the ball, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. As a shooter, he usually knows whether the ball is there when he makes a shot. A shooter like Korver naturally knows it all too well.

He already knew the result when he shot the ball.

"Shh!"

The crisp sound echoed in the Pepsi Center, Korver hit a three-pointer again!
"Wow!"

The fans in the Pepsi Center had an orgasm in an instant. Although they didn't know Korver, it was obvious that Korver was a member of the Nuggets, and his appearance was likely to change the stretched outside shooting ability. How could they not be excited!
"Who is that?" Barkley asked in surprise when he saw the white guy who suddenly appeared to score.

"I haven't seen it before, it seems to be a rookie this year?" Smith said tentatively.

"His shot rhythm is very good. Why is the Nuggets still hiding such a No. [-] outside shooter?" Barkley's curiosity was suddenly aroused.

"Maybe it was just traded?" Smith said with uncertainty.

"Let me see." Barkley said as he picked up the Nuggets' roster, and finally locked his eyes on the last name, "Kyle Korver?"

"Korver?" Smith heard the words and looked at the white figure running upwards, and fell into thinking all of a sudden.

Anthony is determined to help Korver, and every time he attacks in the next game, he will consider this outside three-point shooting point for the first time.

In the next half quarter, Korver got two more three-pointers and hit another goal. After hitting the first one, he had already made three of five three-pointers and won the team's lead. With the highest score of 5 points, a fringe player, a rookie who just joined the team, conquered the fans at the scene with his miraculous performance.

The Suns also realized the threat of Korver after the first quarter, and strengthened their defense as soon as the second quarter came up, but D'Antoni saw the trick and put Wang Zhizhi up again, putting a cannon inside and outside the line, although the defense It was a bit worse, but coupled with the threat of Anthony's breakthrough, the triangle formed made the Suns miserable.

The offense of the Suns was still smooth at the beginning, but they were repeatedly scored by the Nuggets. The mentality of the players has changed a lot, especially Marion and Stoudemire. , and Marbury, there were some conflicts in the first place, and now they suddenly intensified, and it didn't take long for them to fall into a situation where they were fighting each other.

When the game entered the end of the third quarter, the Suns had already trailed by nearly 20 points, and the fast life abused by the Nuggets couldn't take care of themselves.

Miracles don't happen often. The Suns, who were 20 points behind, replaced the substitutes early and entered the garbage time early. The fans also had a good time and left after watching the game happily.

After one game, Anthony's stats of 28 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists are quite satisfactory, but the most eye-catching thing in this game is Korver who just joined. The white three-point shooter made 10 of 7 three-pointers in the game , scored 21 points, second only to Anthony's score, not only made D'Antoni laugh from ear to ear, even Crokern, who was watching the game, was full of praise, and by the way, Vandeweghe directly praised him, and Threatened to give him a raise.

Vandeweghe went around in a circle, and finally realized that the players Anthony gave were underappreciated, and he quickly accelerated the progress of the trade of the remaining players on hand.
