1067. Better than good
Returning from the break, the Hawks fielded Liu Mang, Jason Terry, Korver, Josh Smith, and Kwame Brown.
The SuperSonics fielded a lineup of Francis, Ray Allen, Lewis, Reggie Evans, Nick Collisson.
The SuperSonics attack first.
Liu Mang went up and followed Ray Allen to continue running.
Jason Terry wants to curse, why is he defending Francis!
Although there is not much difference in height, the strength is also far behind!
Jason Terry struck hard and was run over by Francis and burst to the basket.
However, Josh Smith let go of Reggie Evans as soon as possible and sandwiched Francis on the baseline.
If the SuperSonics want to ensure rebounding, the offense under the basket is bound to be hit hard, and Liu Mang took advantage of this shortcoming of the SuperSonics lineup, so that Jason Terry could defend Francis and Josh Smith quickly blocked.
Francis was forced to stop by a ferocious pinch from the basket!
Ray Allen hurried to the bottom line to respond, Liu Mang stuck to Ray Allen who received the ball, Ray Allen withdrew from the three-point line, came to the bottom corner, and made a strong shot against Liu Mang's bottom corner......
Hit!
Ray Allen hits the second three-pointer of the game!
33 draws!
The SuperSonics continued to bite the score.
Singles are all in!
Liu Mang was also helpless, the other party had a three-point ability that was not weaker than him.
Offense and defense switched, and the Eagles attacked.
Liu Mang received the serve and advanced quickly, the Hawks pressed the whole team, and after rushing to the outside of the three-point line, Josh Smith came up to block Ray Allen.
Liu Mang triggered the level 5 of the blocking and demolition master, and the speed soared to break through 100, breaking through from the right side!
Josh Smith, meanwhile, broke down the left flank as soon as he got a block.
Both cut in very quickly, Ray Allen, Reggie Evans and Francis, who was on the side, were all attracted, Liu Mang distributed the ball to Korver in the bottom right corner, and Korver received the ball and shot a three-point shot...... Also in it!
At 36-33, the Hawks again led by three points.
The Hawks attacked very fast, trying to speed up as much as possible, but when it came time for the SuperSonics to attack, the tempo slowed down again, and the SuperSonics still landed in the position battle to attack, which is what they are good at, and they are absolutely killed by the Hawks when they run, and they are very sure of this.
When it came to the supersonic team's offense, Liu Mang defended Thunder-Allen more fiercely this time, and frantically went around to block Ray-Allen from receiving the ball.
Ray Allen encountered Liu Mang's very aggressive defense and chose to open up the space, Francis passed the ball to the pulled out Nick Collison, who passed the ball to Lewis.
Lewis took a step outside the free throw line to catch the ball, and with little time left, he shot straight at Korver's long two-point shot!
Lewis is very average with the ball, has little breakthrough ability, and is about the same height as Korver.
But the shot is really accurate!
Lewis's long two-point shot also hits!
It's the Hawks offense again, Jason Terry wants the ball to play alone, and in the face of Francis's defense, Jason Terry can easily get the space, but the opponent's defense is too poor, and Jason Terry bursts into the mid-range vacancy to shoot but hits the iron......
Fortunately, Josh Smith took the ball out, Liu Mang grabbed the ball, and hit the shot with a one-step throw from inside the free throw line.
Still 3 points ahead!
The Eagles are so steady!
The main reason is that the SuperSonics team's defensive rebounding is too poor, their two interior rushes are more than enough, but their card position ability is very poor, and they all rely on the speed of the bullet to eat, compared with a big center like Kwame Brown with a tonnage of almost 120 kilograms, the card position is too disadvantaged to grab rebounds.
Finally, the SuperSonics hit the iron for the first time in the second quarter, and Lewis missed a three-point shot after Francis broke through the ball!
Josh Smith and Kwame Brown are not aiming for rebounds this time, but crazy slots!
Kwame Brown and Nick Collison fought hand-to-hand, Josh Smith and Reggie Evans fought hand-to-hand, both of them were fighting each other with the mentality that no one wanted to grab the rebound, and the action was so big that the referee wanted to blow for a foul, but the two interior movements of the supersonic were also very large, so they were tied.
Liu Mang had rushed back to the basket when Lewis shot, the first was to quickly receive the serve and advance, and the second was to grab the rebound for the opponent not to score!
Liu Mang took the lead in front of Francis, took the rebound, and counterattacked again!
Cavalry company sorted!
Francis came up and wanted to block Liu Mang, Liu Mang shot the ball out to the left front, left Francis behind, and rode alone to trigger level 5!
Liu Mang ran faster and faster, and every time he passed an opponent, the speed became faster, and Ray Allen and Lewis, who took the lead in quickly retreating, were attracted to Liu Mang, both of them received baskets, and Francis, who was chasing after him, also received the inside line, ready to chase the hat.
Liu Mang went deep into the basket, and after confirming that he was caught by three people, he passed the ball back to the top arc, and Jason Terry, who followed up, received the ball and chased down the three-point shot......
Entered!
41 to 35! The difference is 6 points!
It's such a wave!
Liu Mang, Jason Terry, and Korver, the Hawks' best three three-pointers, came to the upper hand against the two big three-pointers of Ray Allen and Lewis!
Slowly, the point difference was opened up little by little by the Eagles.
The SuperSonics offense played quite well, and the three-point shooting rate was always above 40 percent, but in the second quarter, the offensive rebounding rush became worse, and Liu Mang specifically targeted the opponent's two major interior offensive rebounds, allowing Kwame Brown and Josh Smith to concentrate on the other party's positioning, and he came to grab the rebound himself.
Liu Mang was once the second-best rebounding player for the Hawks, and last season Liu Mang averaged more rebounds per game than Francis, who ranked third in rebounds for the SuperSonics.
The SuperSonics lost the guarantee of offensive rebounding, and although the shooting efficiency did not decline much, the number of shots decreased!
This is fatal for the superSonics!
The Hawks began to play to the sky, Jason Terry and Korver immediately shot when they received the ball, Liu Mang broke through and scored when he had a chance, the other party would not give him a good three-point opportunity, he chose to seek stability, break through and attract the bag, the bag came tightly, he passed, the bag was a little slower, he rushed to the basket and used his feet to score.
The SuperSonics played well, but the Hawks slowly widened the gap.
At the end of the first half, the Hawks were 65-57 and led by 8 points into halftime!
……
The SuperSonics were still very efficient in the second quarter, shooting 11-of-21 from the field and 3-of-7 from three-point range, scoring 27 points, but there was a big gap from the first quarter because they were more efficient in the second quarter.
The main thing is that there are no second offensive opportunities, and the SuperSonics have 5 offensive rebounds in the first quarter and only 1 in the second quarter!
Jason Terry scored 13 points on 5-of-9 shooting in the second quarter, and Korver scored 9 points on 3-of-7 shooting in the second quarter, both of which played the whole quarter.
Liu Mang had 6 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in the second quarter, and the data in the single quarter exploded!
At the end of the half, Liu Mang had 14 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists!
The Eagles' strategy gradually worked, and the Eagles continued to score in the early thirties of each quarter, and still gradually widened the gap without a significant improvement in efficiency.
When it came time to make tactical arrangements at halftime, Coach Kruger chose to continue the tactical extension of the second quarter.
However, it has also strengthened some on the basis of the defensive strategy that Liu Mang thought of.
Returning from halftime, Coach Kruger changed the lineup of Liu Mang, Maddy, Iguodala, Josh Smith and Rasheed Wallace.
The SuperSonics continued to field the outside trio of Francis, Ray Allen, and Lewis, as did Reggie Evans and Nick Collisson.
The supersonic team is fighting!
The SuperSonics attacked first, and after Francis advanced to the frontcourt, he found that the defender was the sophomore No. 6 pick.
Iguodala is the best candidate to defend Francis, Francis did not choose a hard burst, the opponent is too athletic on the outside.
Francis looked for a pick-and-roll, Maddie and Iguodala quickly switched defenses, and Francis just finished blocking and picking up when he found Maddie in front of him......
Francis looked at Ray Allen's side, and was skewed to death by Liu Mang, so Francis could only kill the inside line with his head stuffy!
Francis rushed to the inside under Maddie's sticker and forced a collision into Maddie and Rasheed Wallace, who was helping the defense, and got a foul with his life, and was knocked to the ground by Rasheed Wallace.
The referee's whistle blew, the shot was fouled, and Francis made two free throws.
Francis walked to the free throw line, hit one of two free throws, was hit too hard, and the free throw was affected.
Originally, Liu Mang thought that Rashid Wallace was on the line, and he could have more counterattack tactics, but the opponent hit the second penalty and fell into the positional battle again.
After Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, Ray Allen directly and ferociously pasted up.
Liu Mang held the iron elbow, easily carried Ray Allen, observed the opponent's defense, and found that the opponent's tendency to shrink was reduced!
The Hawks made a three-pointer in the second quarter, Jason Terry made a three-pointer, and Korver made three three-pointers, so that the SuperSonics did not dare to let go of the Hawks' outside line.
Liu Mang looked for a block, Rashid Wallace came out to help Liu Mang block Ray Allen, Liu Mang's speed just got up, Reggie Evans's defense had come up, and Reggie Evans, who followed Rashid Wallace's defense, wanted to press up to prevent Liu Mang, but!
Liu Mang wants more than one block!
Liu Mang changed direction again, and Reggie Evans was blocked by Iguodala!
Liu Mang rushed into the inside, Nick Collison pressed up, Liu Mang hoisted the ball to the basket, Josh Smith jumped on the spot, Liu Mang's ball passed very high, Josh Smith jumped also very high, touched the ball in the air, and smashed the ball into the basket!
70 to 60!
The difference is 10 points!
For the first time in this game, a 10-point difference!
