Chapter 242: Needle Tip and Mai Mang (Ask for Subscription!) Ask for a commuter pass! )
The game between the SuperSonics and the Timberwolves was hyped by the media before the game, because of Garnett's provocative remarks to Lu Fei before the game.
Garnett is like the kind of player who is constantly talking and babbling on the field, and he is quite cool when he is a teammate, but it is a big head to be an opponent.
But there is still strength, and if people want to spray back, they have to have the same strength to spray back.
Lu Fei doesn't hate Garnett, but he really doesn't like it as an opponent, but he knows that there are many fans who like Garnett, after all, it is a pleasure to watch this kind of passionate player play.
The American media has always liked to engage in grudge theory, and this game has also been labeled as "MVP and Best Rookie Showdown".
Lu Fei thought to himself, which kind of duel between me and him, even if it is going to be a duel, it is Rasheed Wallace, okay?
McMillan made a tactical analysis before the game, and the key to winning the game is Rashid Wallace and Sean Battier, as long as they can defend against the opposing Garnett and Sprewell, the team's probability of winning is still very high, after all, the Timberwolves' Szczebiak has been reimbursed for the season.
Lu Fei reminded him, "The defense of the substitute lineup also needs to be paid attention to." ”
McMillan immediately understood, and also made some arrangements, in Lu Fei's opinion, it should be enough, after all, the basketball game cannot be perfect, the lineup is here, sometimes if you want to win all the time, you really need luck.
Of course, there is also good and bad luck......
As the referee's whistle blew, the game began.
The SuperSonics are still their usual lineup this season.
Center: Memet Oku
Power forward: Rasheed Wallace
Small forward: Sean Battier
Shooting guard: Ray Allen
Organizational defender: Lu Fei
The Timberwolves' lineup did not surprise everyone, and it is still the lineup seen at the beginning of the season.
Centre-forward: Michael Olovokandi
Power forward: Kevin Garnett
Small forward: Trenton Hassel
Shooting guard: Ratriel Sprewell
Defender: Sam Kassel
When there was no Rashid Wallace, the SuperSonics won the Timberwolves with this lineup, but they were also won back by the Wolves, so the two sides know each other very well.
Garnett has always been a good guy to jump the ball, and he directly dialed the ball to Cassel, although Rashid Wallace is also a relatively good jumper, but a discerning person knows at a glance that it can't be compared with Garnett's perverted bounce.
Cassel took the ball across the half court, he was not in a hurry to attack in the face of Lu Fei's defense, and he obviously felt that Lu Fei's defense had improved a lot after a season, so he was more cautious.
Garnett got into position on the inside, and the basketball went straight into his hands.
Trenton Hassell brought Ray Allen from the baseline to the other side, opening up space for Garnetra, who dribbled and squeezed in, swayed his shoulders and prepared to turn.
At this time, Oku immediately came to the rescue.
It was a supersonic strategy to pinch Garnett after he dribbled and deny him a chance to roll over and jump.
Who knew that Garnett spun back directly, and with a big flick of his hand, the basketball flew towards Sprewell, who cut in the air.
Sprewell received the ball and broke through directly, Battier followed closely beside him, he made a quick stop and then passed the ball out, Cassel had already used Garnett's cover to shake off Lu Fei's defense at this time, Rasheed Wallace didn't follow up, and Cassel hit a three-point shot.
"Sam! Kasai ...... ......"
The MC on the scene chanted Kassel's name, and the offensive Timberwolves in the first round were fully prepared, and the tactics were very clear, which made McMillan, who was standing on the sidelines, feel a little uneasy in his heart.
At this time, at the domestic men's basketball training center, the players were also watching the game.
Zhu Fangyu sighed: "The Timberwolves' tactical literacy is really high, they seem to already know the supersonic defensive strategy, Garnett is a cover at all, and Cassel is the core of their offense." ”
Yao Ming shook his head: "Their core is still Garnett, as long as he has the opportunity, Garnett will still play by himself, but compared to his offense, his cover and defense are the foundation of his foothold in the league." ”
"And what about supersonics?" Zhu Fangyu asked.
"Let's see......" Yao Ming was also a little unsure.
If the Timberwolves' offense plays like this, it will be difficult for the supersonic to play, but Lu Fei also knows that the two teams are too familiar with each other, and it is indeed not easy to make a gap in a short period of time.
Ray Allen ran out of the empty space with the help of two positioning covers, the person arrived at the ball, Lu Fei found Ray Allen's position from the human gap, Ray Allen received the ball and shot three points, and the basketball crossed a high arc and fell steadily into the basket.
"Beautiful!"
Zhu Fangyu couldn't help but be envious, if she ran like this and received Lu Fei's pass, would she be able to hit?
He didn't know, but he knew that Ray Allen was the goal of his studies.
He has been practicing his three-point shot hard, because he understands that as long as he can run out of the open space, Lu Fei will definitely give the ball to himself, and he can't wait for Lu Fei to come back and play the Olympics together.
"If Supersonic loses, Lu Fei will be able to come back sooner......" he was amused by his own thoughts.
However, at this time, the supersonic speed on the field of play is really very bad, Kassel's hand style is too smooth, he used an active running position to pull out the receiving space, and then suddenly a sharp stop threw off Lu Fei who was following him, when everyone thought he was going to shoot, he suddenly accelerated again, and suddenly wiped away from Lu Fei, who pounced back to defend, and broke into the inside line in three steps, and scored the ball with a board before everyone reacted.
So everyone saw his ugly face on the screen, showing a mouth of buckteeth, and smiling, not to mention how happy they were.
In turn, the supersonic missed several consecutive outside shots, and the score was pulled apart all at once.
Lu Fei sighed: "Look, the poisoned milk is coming, I thought it would be enough to prevent Garnett and Sprewell from dying, but Cassel exploded...... Isn't that a deliberate attempt to embarrass me? ”
The teammates did not feel good, and after Lu Fei controlled the ball and passed the half, he made a tactical gesture.
The teammates immediately understood.
Cassel frowned, and quickly lowered his center of gravity, and the corner of his eye kept aiming at the sides to prevent the opponent's cover.
Lu Fei jumped a small step to the left and then changed direction directly in front of his body, and when he was halfway through, he changed back like lightning and rushed past Kassel's side.
Kassel is helpless, Lu Fei is too fast.
Garnett hurriedly came over to make up for the defense, and just rushed up to find that the basketball in Lu Fei's hand was missing, and then he heard the exclamations of the fans in his ears, and when he looked back, he saw that Rashid Wallace was already hanging on the basket and shaking his body.
……
Garnett rolls over and scores on a jumper.
……
Lu Fei hit a three-point shot from the top of the arc.
……
Cassel scored inside and drew a foul on Oku and made two free throws.
……
Lu Fei threw and hit after breaking through.
In the first quarter of the game, the two sides played very smoothly, and the game was basically uninterrupted, which made the audience at the scene addicted.
At 33:28, the Timberwolves still maintained a five-point lead.
The highest SuperSonics scorer was Lu Fei, who scored half of the team's points alone, with 14 points and four assists.
If it weren't for Lu Fei using his scoring ability to drag down the score, I am afraid that it would be more than five points at this time.
The team's expected defense didn't play out, and the Timberwolves used Garnett's passing and cover, and Cassel continued to tear apart the supersonic defense.
Although Battier's side still defended Sprewell, it was difficult for Lu Fei's side to defend against Kassel.
Lu Fei's idea is also very simple - I can't prevent you, and you don't want to prevent me.
Your teammates don't bloom, but my teammates can't be dumb all the time.
He's waiting, waiting for his teammates to find their touch......
As for now, let's go to the tip of the needle!
