Chapter 41: Three Points!
"So, if you want to block and pick and roll in the middle distance, because Trenton Haser doesn't dare to defend closely, he can't do it flexibly, and there is a good chance that he will be delayed by the high forward, and if he retreats too far, Allen can jump directly." Tyronn Lue said.
"Huh?"
Wang didn't expect Tyronn Lue to draw inferences from tomorrow, what happened to this player? Ready to run for the vacated No. 1 Teaching Assistant?
On the court, as Tyronn Lue said, Iverson opted for a mid-range jumper.
This is not a tactic arranged by Wang Tomorrow, but the 76ers players are used to playing like this, although Iverson's mid-range jumper is not interfered with, but high school forward Daimam Porter also obstructs his vision, and the jump shot is fifty percent with the feeling formed by long-term practice, and unfortunately brushes out of the frame.
Coach Casey breathed a sigh of relief, if the 76ers play like this, there is not much threat, originally he only had a 50% chance of winning this game, but now it is almost certain that the 76ers can't win their Timberwolves today.
Garnett holds the ball high post.
After the Timberwolves pulled away, Garnett directly singled out Al Harrington in the high post, Garnett's height and arm span are above Harrington, a big forward, and he is familiar with the dribble like a guard.
He dribbled twice, shook his right shoulder and sank, and suddenly changed direction in front of his body, exchanged to his left hand, and the whole person formed a breakthrough situation, half a position ahead of Harrington, who had no time to react.
Harrington followed Garnett to the baseline, and the defense has lost the initiative.
Garnett spun around again, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and jerked it up.
Harrington subconsciously jumped up, only to find in the air that Garnett's feet were firmly on the ground, and he didn't move at all!
"Oops!"
Harrington said it wasn't good, but now that the game had started, he didn't want to foul so early.
Garnett got up again, his straight arms held high, and with a hint of a step-back jumper, Harrington, who had hit the rhythm and timing scheme, couldn't even cover Garnett's eyes.
Also in the middle distance, Garnett seems to pay tribute to Iverson just now.
"Brush!"
Accurate hits!
Iverson snorted coldly, his big eyes shining with burning sparks, full of fighting spirit.
Switching offense and defense, Iverson forced a one-on-one break through Trenton Hasser, and then the free throw line position, a quick stop, a step back, and a scissor-foot jumper!
Trenton is also very powerful, after being broken through, he immediately adjusted, and he still defended very well.
"Huh!"
But this time Iverson felt very good, and the basketball grazed the inside of the basket and drilled into the net, making a crisp sound into the net, crisp and neat.
2 to 2, the opening superstar duel, the fans who watched the blood boiled.
Wang Tomorrow kept shaking his head off the court, change is not something that can be accomplished overnight, the 76ers' way of playing has been ingrained for too long, even if he held an emergency meeting before the game, when he got to the game, it became the same again.
Garnett was in excellent form, hitting a single Harrington jumper and then hitting a layup to draw a foul on Durham Porter.
Ricky Davis also hit a mid-range jumper, and the 76ers went into a quagmire on offense, trailing the Timberwolves 2-8 in the opening game.
Wang asked for his first timeout as head coach tomorrow.
.......
"I said he can't do it, I'm afraid the Chinese haven't memorized all the tactical atlases of the 76ers yet." During the live broadcast, the host of ESPN mocked Wang Mingming with tinted glasses.
"I don't see any scheduling from the interim head coach at all, the 76ers are going to the belly of the fish in the next step of his operation, or go back to China and cook with peanut oil!"
This host is called Jorge Andrés.
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar, and the Chinese in the United States were in an uproar.
Peanut oil is a common cooking product in China, South Asia, or Southeast Asia. Peanut oil is easier to produce than other oils and is generally considered to be fried in the United States. In other words, it is the meaning of junk food in Asia, and when used here, it is obvious that the Asians represented by Wang Ming are garbage, with obvious racist remarks, which is very inappropriate.
But he didn't realize his inappropriate remarks at all, and he still taunted and criticized the interim bishop of the 76ers, King Tomorrow.
At the end of the timeout, the fans kept their eyes glued to the field.
No one is optimistic about Wang's arrangement tomorrow, he has almost no resume in the alliance, blank as paper, unconvincing.
"Toot ~"
The whistle blows, and the 76ers serve.
Iverson was still receiving the ball in the elbow area, and the strong side and Dareham Porter were blocking, and the pile was supposed to go to the middle line, but Iverson turned like a top and walked the baseline.
At this point, Garnett controlled Harrington and Delham Porter from the free-throw line, Harrington withdrew from the three-point line, and he was forced to move to the line, unable to control Allen Iverson, who walked off the line.
The only big center for the 76ers to wrap up Iverson is Mark Blunt.
With the data of 9 points and 4 boards, Mark signed a 6-year contract with an annual salary of about 700 in 04, and now no one wants the Timberwolves to shoot, no speed, no defense, no offense, no rebounds, except for the "7-foot center" sounds like it can scare people, it has not reached the starting standard at all.
But in the Timberwolves, he really is a true starter.
Iverson's regular speed easily bypassed Mark's help defense from the baseline, and then the Timberwolves' formation was already a mess, Iverson shook his hands, threw the basketball out, and gave his teammates who raised their hands at a 45-degree angle, ready to catch the ball at any time.
Kyle Korver!
Mike James, who is experienced, turned around and pounced on Kyle Korver, but the latter's eyes were extremely determined, and the gesture of raising his hands to shoot the basket was like a textbook, and there was only the basket in his eyes and nothing else.
That's the shooter!
Coach Casey suddenly stood up from the bench, his face changed drastically.
In the next second, the basketball flew straight into the sky, and a perfect parabolic arc was crossed in the air!
Hole through the Nets!
The Vacovia Center Arena is boiling in an instant - a long drought is a rain!
Wang Ming clapped and laughed and cheered for his disciples who came on the field, he didn't know that someone couldn't wait to jump out, and he did two things in the timeout.
One is to replace the veteran Kevin Ollie with shooter Kyle Korver, and the other thing is to once again emphasize with the players the multi-shot three-point shooting and baseline breaking through the air cut tactics.
Iverson doesn't like to shoot three-pointers, and before going on the court, Wang Ming deliberately pulled him.
"Mike James is only 1.88 meters tall, and Kyle Korver is 2.01 meters tall, in order to let Trenton defend you, Mike James can only defend Korver, Korver's vision is not disturbed at all, you can try to find Korver who runs out of the position in the blocking and dismantling breakout, I have already told him, as long as there is a chance at the three-point line, no matter what the situation, you will shoot immediately, Garnett can't care that far."
Iverson nodded, comprehending what Wang Ming meant, which was to use his breakthrough to revitalize the shooters outside.
Who are the 76ers shooters?
Kyle Korver, Al Harrington, and Andre Iguodala, who has an inconsistent three-point shooting percentage, can only be regarded as half, with three points on the outside waiting for defense, and the court space is suddenly stretched to the maximum!
