Chapter 126
But Chang Tiancheng did the opposite this time, seeing that James did not jump to interfere, he decisively shot directly near the halfcourt, and the basketball flew in the air for a while before falling straight into the basket.
James stomped his foot hard with his head in his hands, he hadn't felt this feeling of chagrin in a long time.
Doncic brought the ball to halfcourt and passed it to James, but the defender James had to face at this time had become Wembanyama, and he knew that he couldn't go toe-to-toe with Wembanyama, so he called Ayton to block for him, and then used his speed advantage to beat Embiid.
Embiid's footsteps followed up quickly and caught up with James' breakthrough speed, but James didn't look scared at all, and jumped straight up and was ready to go to the basket.
Embiid stretched out his arm to block James' layup, but James suddenly looked back at the moon and suddenly passed the basketball to Doncic outside the three-point line.
Doncic picked up Devin Booker with a dummy point, broke through to the mid-range position, and hit a solid shot.
Chang Tiancheng immediately took the serve, intending to launch a counterattack on the spot, although the opponent's team's defense speed is not slow, but Chang Tiancheng is still better with the blessing of steel and iron bones, and the speed is still better, and he hit the opponent's basket in the blink of an eye, and hit a light basket.
After Doncic dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he continued to choose to play with his back to Chang Tiancheng's defense, but through the first few rounds of offense, he was able to find that he really couldn't beat Chang Tiancheng.
The reason for this result is that when Chang Tiancheng was exercising in Wembanyama's villa this morning, he checked his skill growth and found that his steel and iron skills had been upgraded.
Compared with other skills, the steel and iron bone skill can be said to be the skill that Chang Tiancheng cares about the most. After all, judging from the last upgrade, this skill can effectively change his innate physical fitness deficiencies, such as skeleton, such as height.
The shooting accuracy brought by the marksman, even if it is not upgraded, can be continuously polished on the training ground to achieve a similar effect. Including the God of Point Guard skill, although the loss of the blessing of this skill may lead to a certain decrease in the overall offensive efficiency of the Spurs, after all, after receiving Chang Tiancheng's pass, they no longer enjoy the bonus of shooting more accurately.
But in terms of the current staffing of the Spurs, this impact is not as big as imagined, these players have grown greatly in the offseason, and now the offensive efficiency of the entire Spurs team is terrifying, even if the three-point shooting percentage suddenly drops a little, it will not have that kind of traumatic impact on the Spurs.
It can be said that without those skills, Chang Tiancheng can still survive in the NBA, but without the steel and iron bones, Chang Tiancheng may not even have the qualifications to play in the NBA.
This time, the reinforcement brought by the upgrade of the steel and iron bones is not as high as the last time, at least the height has not changed. Chang Tiancheng's previous height has always been 188 cm, and after the upgrade and tempering of the last steel and iron bone skills, Chang Tiancheng's height has come to 190 cm in the new season. It can be said that in the NBA's guard line, Chang Tiancheng's height can no longer be regarded as a disadvantage.
The upgrade of the steel and iron bones mainly strengthened Chang Tiancheng's muscle thickness, which explains why Doncic obviously felt that he had become more difficult to play with his back when facing Chang Tiancheng this time.
After Doncic barely resisted Chang Tiancheng to the free throw line, he immediately withdrew his strength and made an independent jump shot with a step-back. Doncic is also a talented player on the offensive end after all, even under high-intensity physical confrontation, the shooting posture of this shot was not deformed, and the basketball hit steadily after smashing the basket twice.
Chang Tiancheng attacked with the ball, and he planned to repeat his old tricks, first blocking and dismantling Wembanyama, attracting Giannis from the interior and giving Embiid a large enough space for the interior to play.
But after Giannis saw Wembanyama blocking and dismantling for Chang Tiancheng this time, although he also followed a little distance, he never left the penalty area too far. Obviously, he has seen Chang Tiancheng's intentions, so he wants to take care of both the inside and outside defense.
Chang Tiancheng saw Giannis standing like this, and he knew that his opportunity was coming, and after bypassing Wembanyama's cover, Chang Tiancheng found that Giannis was still parting part of his attention to his inner line, so he directly shot a cold arrow outside the three-point line.
Giannis is worthy of being called a "Greek monster", although he was standing near the free throw line, but the moment he saw Chang Tiancheng shoot, the whole person suddenly flashed in front of Chang Tiancheng, stretching out his long arm to block Chang Tiancheng.
Although Chang Tiancheng had long expected that Giannis might pounce on the defense, the speed and quality of this defense still greatly exceeded Chang Tiancheng's estimate, if it wasn't for Chang Tiancheng's shooting speed was really fast, I am afraid that this ball would be covered by Giannis.
After the basketball left Chang Tiancheng's hands, Giannis was almost touched, but in the end, his fingertips still missed the basketball slightly.
Chang Tiancheng hit a three-point shot to add another three points to his team.
Doncic dribbled the ball, he knew that now he was relying on his back to play Chang Tiancheng was already a less efficient offensive method, and if he passed the ball to James, let him face Wembanyama's defense could not be said to be a good option, so he still decided to break through the opposing team's defense from the inside.
Between Ayton and Giannis, Doncic ultimately chose to pass the ball to Giannis. After all, Ayton's independent offensive ability under the basket has been a little worse in recent seasons, and although Giannis is not a player who is very proficient in interior footwork, his interior singles can also score for the team at key moments in the playoffs, which can be said to be a very trustworthy scoring point.
After Giannis received the ball, he first turned his back to Sabonis Jr., dribbled the ball twice and took a step inside, then directly half-turned, and used his shoulder to push against Sabonis Jr.'s body, and then jumped high, raised his right hand high, and made a hook shot.
Giannis's physical fitness was much better than that of Sabonis Jr., and his jump directly made Sabonis Jr. look a lot shorter, and Giannis's shoulders after turning around were always tightly stuck in Sabonis's body, making him unable to jump.
