Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 735
The head coach of Angola finally called a timeout. After more than three minutes of the game, the score on the field had reached 13:0. In Nelson's view, the timeout by the head coach of Angola was still too late.

Of course, even if it is called earlier, it is useless. Anyway, even Nelson himself can't think of any adjustments that can be made to help Angola defeat the dream team.

During the entire timeout, Nelson had nothing to say. He neither told them tactics nor encouraged them. Instead, he made substitutions calmly.

It can be seen that Nelson's role on the court at this time is not as good as tethering a dog here. At least the dog will not replace the player who is performing well to interrupt the state of the players on the court.

Of course, this is just a joke. In fact, although Nelson sympathizes with the Angola team, he will not make fun of the outcome of the game. The reason why he made substitutions is mainly because he believes in the strength of the players and at the same time allows more outstanding players to participate .

So, during this timeout, he replaced Li Weisi, Bird and Barkley with Pippen, Malone and Ewing. It can be seen that Nelson is not going to play offense next, but to play defense instead.

Originally, Angola couldn't break the defense of the Dream Team, but this is good. After Nelson's change, the strength of the defense has reached a new level.

However, the timeout of the Angola team still had an effect. When the timeout came back, the Angola team successfully made Ewing, who had just played, receive a foul by breaking through the timeout, and then walked to the free throw line. The first point of the game.

After that, although Angola was still difficult to score under the tight defense of the Dream Team, they finally scored sporadic points.

When the time went on for more than 8 minutes, the dream team changed again. Magician and Jordan, who had not rested before, were finally replaced, and Li Weisi and Mullin were sent on the field.

At this time, the score on the court was 25:8, and the dream team had opened the game to 17 points.

Just after the substitution, the Angola team successfully hit a mid-range jumper and added 2 points, increasing the team's score to double digits.

However, in the next few minutes, the entire Angola team fell into a nightmare.

First, Mullin received Li Weisi's sudden point and hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner. Then Angola missed a shot. The Dream Team counterattacked and Pippen dunked successfully.

Then Li Weisi was at the top of the arc again, and hit a three-pointer.

Next, Li Weisi and Mullin almost shot every shot, frequently firing from beyond the three-point line. By the end of the first quarter, the Dream Team had scored 38 points and beat Angola 38:10 in the first quarter.

Entering the second quarter, Li Weisi was still on the court. He led Drexler, Mullin, Barkley and Robinson to continue to give Angola a heavy blow.

In this way, unknowingly, although the Dream Team continued to make substitutions in the middle, until the Angola team scored again, the score of the two sides had reached 66:12. Before halftime was over, the Dream Team had already won 44. separated.

It can be said that just half of the game has already made the whole game lose suspense.

However, what really made people remember this game was Barkley's "elbow kick" incident in the second half.

It was an attack that happened in the second half. After Barkley made a layup, he was so excited that he ran back and directly elbowed Angola forward Herland Coimbra in the chest.

Poor Coimbra, who weighed only 79 kilograms, was hit by such an elbow by Barkley, as if he had been hit by a shell, and his whole body was trembling due to external force.

In fact, Barkley is Coimbra's favorite star. When he was in his hometown of Luanda, as soon as Coimbra got the NBA game highlights, the first thing he wanted to find was the picture of Barkley.

It can be said that when he was hit with such an elbow by Barkley, he was completely dumbfounded, and he had the illusion that the feelings he had had for so many years were finally paid by mistake.

Barkley, on the other hand, was quite calm. After giving an elbow, he returned to defense as if nothing had happened.

In fact, Barkley's elbow was not without trace. As early as in the last round, when he was grabbing an offensive rebound under the basket, he pushed another Angolan forward David Diaz out of the field. outside.

It was evident then that Barkley was in a bad mood.

The whole game has reached the current stage, and I don't care about the score anymore. Anyway, losing 50 points or 60 points can't change the outcome of the game. Even when NBC broadcast the game, it saw the score being drawn and broadcast it directly. Another game.

Compared with the results of the game, fans are obviously more concerned about Barkley's elbow incident.

In this way, the score was fixed at 116:48, and the entire second half was in a state of a dream team exhibition game.

After the game, all media people turned their microphones on Barkley and another protagonist, Coimbra. Obviously, this is the biggest gimmick tonight.

Coimbra, who had never been interviewed by such a media in the face of countless guns and short shots, was a little cautious in front of the camera, and said innocently: "I was surprised at the time, I never thought that Barkley would use violence against me. .”

On the other hand, Barkley didn't mean to apologize at all, and said confidently: "If someone hits me, I will hit back!"

It turned out that, according to Barkley, Coimbra had elbowed him at least three times in the previous game, so he would fight back.

It’s just that due to the continuous switching of the TV station, the video is incomplete. In the only remaining video, there is no picture of Coimbra’s elbow. On the contrary, Barkley’s elbow is constantly rebroadcast by the media. You can see everything clearly.

Seeing that the two parties could no longer obtain more effective information, these reporters set their sights on other Dream Team players.

"What I want to say is, before you do anything, do you give people four chances? In the United States, you usually only have one chance!" Facing the interview, Malone supported Barkley.

"As we all know, Charles is an idiot. That should be his way of intimidation. However, I just told him off the court, Charles, they just took our autographs before the game. Do they need us to intimidate in this way?" Jordan He didn't want to support Barkley, but just excused Barkley.

When the reporters asked about Li Weisi, Li Weisi said after listening to the reporter's description: "Well, Michael was right once in a while, and it wasn't just his elbow that caused Charles trouble, but when he tried to explain clearly This elbow brought him even more trouble. After all, what we want to do is destroy the opponent, not destroy their love for us!"
