"Tyson is not up, Nick you are on top, Russell, still the same as before, bring the rhythm up, as soon as you get the rebound, you directly push the fast break, if you don't have a chance, give the ball to KD." Brooks drew the tactical board with a serious expression.

The worst for the team came to an end, the interior defensive core couldn't be played, and the Thunder had to go back to the way they played last season.

Chandler's importance to the team Brooks is very clear, although Ibaka's talent is good, the number of blocks is high, but it does not play the role of a defensive fulcrum, although Chandler's statistics are not so eye-catching, but the protection of the Thunder's interior line is very tight.

Coach Brooks saw value in a healthy Chandler, and the summer trade really helped the Thunder find a core that could upgrade the team's defense.

Chandler's athleticism and strong style of play make him a top-tier defensive player.

Chandler not only has outstanding individual defense ability, but more importantly, Chandler's help defense awareness is also excellent, which makes the Thunder all rely on him.

The ability of the three less single defense ball carriers is considered to be at the upper level of the league, but when the opponent often plays without the ball, the defense of the three less is prone to leakage, Chandler can be very perfect to help the three less make up for the pot, the only problem is that Chandler has a glass physique, which is too easy to get injured.

Coach Brooks doesn't care what others say about the Thunder's interior offense is not good and needs to strengthen the interior offense, he understands that the Thunder's offense is always driven by Durant, Li Forest, and Westbrook, and when the horror of these three people soars, there is already no solution, what else do you need to attack inside? The Thunder's current second-highest offensive firepower in the league is a testament to this.

The Thunder don't need an interior offense anymore.

The outside line is strong enough to fill the gap in interior scoring.

Brooks also had bigger ambitions after the Thunder won over the Celtics and Lakers, and the management's goal at the beginning of the season was to make the playoffs, and now Brooks feels the team can fight for the Western Conference finals.

Of course, this is just the fantasy of a sophomore coach.

………………

"Let's talk about the starting line-ups for both sides."

"The home team Orlando Magic starts for: Dwight Howard, Vince Carter, Petrus, Jason Williams, Ryan Anderson"

"The starting XI for the away Oliverhoric Thunder are: Russell Westbrook, Forest Lee, Kevin Durant, Nick Collisson, Kostic."

"This season, Dwight's Orlando has been on a high trajectory since the beginning of the season, repeating the style of winning the Eastern Conference championship last season, while the Thunder have won 4 consecutive games and are also in hot form, and the two teams are in a strong conversation today."

"Okay, then we're looking forward to a great game from both teams."

…………

Because of the existence of Durant and Westbrook, Li Forest is not under much pressure now, and because of the overall strength of the Thunder, there are not many teams that can bring trouble to the Thunder.

…………

The televised footage quickly cut to the pitch.

Both players are in their positions and ready to jump the ball.

Collison vs Howard.

Without further ado, Collison made a meaningful jump, and the ball was tossed to the white chocolate by Howard.

Howard has been with the Magic since his rookie season, is an active top center, and last season he single-handedly brought the Magic to the Finals.

Howard's talent and physical quality are enough to make the saliva of the thirty general managers of the NBA flow into the Nile, he has good jumping ability, fast shooting speed, is the legendary kiss frame man, plus his shoulder-wide arm span, strength and extreme perversion, he simply does not look like an earthling.

His shoulder-wide arm span and tonnage make him more destructive than KG on the inside, his steps under the basket are very flexible, strong basket impact, and the frontal cut is a great threat, but the layup is not good enough, and the offensive means are also very single, so the success rate of the inside attack is not very high except for dunks.

Defensively, he is also at the core level, but he is not the first person to defend yet.

………………

Jason Williams dribbles forward.

It was Westbrook who was keeping an eye on the white chocolate, and Lee Forest was still playing without the ball.

White Chocolate's spirituality has begun to fade, and he came to the top of the arc, watching his teammates' movements with sharp eyes, looking for passing opportunities.

Howard made an off-ball cover on the right side of the free throw line, Carter quickly stepped forward, and Lee's pursuit was blocked by Howard's thick body, and Collison, who was making up the defense, did not keep up and missed Carter.

Carter ran to the outside of the three-point line at an angle of 45 degrees, and the big vacancy, and the white chocolate also saw Carter's big vacancy, and the man arrived at the ball.

After Carter catches the ball, one jumps up.

Just when everyone thought he was going to shoot a three-pointer, Carter made a long pass to the middle.

"Not good."

I saw Howard move forward one by one when everyone's defensive attention was focused on Carter.

Li Forest hurriedly looked at Howard's position, and it was too late to stop him.

Howard jumped three steps straight from the free-throw line.

Catch the ball.

Facing the completely empty thunder inner line, it is as if the gods have descended into the world.

"Box."

Smash the frame with both hands.

0 to 2.

Howard tugged at the basket and shook it twice before coming down.

“o”

"Pretty."

"Good shot."

The home atmosphere was ignited.

The Magic's first offensive tactical offense was completed.

Howard's next step was very fast.

The dunk was easy for Carter and Howard, as Carter gave up an open spot to pass a ball to the Beasts, showing his eagerness to fit into the team.

"Vince, well done."

Howard came over with his signature smile to high-five Carter, and as soon as he was done, he turned back to show off his muscles to Li Linlin.

Li Forest didn't care about his provocation, what can the first attack of the game mean?

It was the Thunder's turn to attack.

All eyes are on Durant now to see how the Thunder's star responds to this one.

With Westbrook on the floor, there is no need for Lee Forest to hold the ball, and Westbrook is also a full-time point guard.

Westbrook dribbles across the halfcourt.

Li Forest is in the low post, which is a regular tactic formulated by the Thunder internally, and the first attack is usually played by Li Forest or Durant.

The Magic kept a mark.

The offensive tactics of the Thunder team are very simple, cover on the inside, the star plays alone, the star will attack himself when he has the opportunity, and pass to another star to attack if he doesn't have the opportunity, and there will be a lot of interspersed cover in the middle.

Just now Durant's position was not good, and he was stuck one step outside the three-point line by Petrus, and Westbrook gave Lee Forest in the low post.

Li Forest leaned against Carter behind him and turned to assume a triple threat pose.

Carter was in a very good position, with his hands wide open, trying to interfere with Lee Forest.

Lee Forest winked at Westbrook.

The Turtle ran without the ball and immediately broke through the White Chocolate defense line and entered the inside line.

Li Forest sent it over one by one.

Howard's attention is also on the side of Lee Forest and Durant, and the pace of helping the defense is slow.

The turtle received the ball from Li Forest in one step inside the free throw line.

The turtle is very comfortable.

I almost groaned.

Against Howard's interference on the side, the turtle directly retracted the ball and bounced, bending his waist into a bow.

Angry buckle.

"Box."

2 to 2.

The stretch of this dunk is no worse than the dunk just now.

………………

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket.
