Chapter 131: Making a Change (Part 2)
The Eagles are full of talent, and indeed they are not too weak.
The 76ers, who are the first in the league, have an awe-inspiring attitude, and the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
After Josh Smith took the lead and completed the aerial relay with Joe Johnson, the Hawks seemed to have opened up the second vein of Ren Du and played on the court.
Mike Bibby also stepped up at the right time and hit a three-pointer.
What was a big surprise happened, the Hawks actually led the 76ers 14-8, and in the first half of the game, they played a style that didn't look like eighth place at all.
"As I said earlier, we are not as weak as the eighth place!"
During the timeout, the morale of the Hawks was high, as evidenced by the cheers of the weakened 76ers fans around them.
.......
Randy Ayes advised: "It's better to step up the offense, the Hawks have a good performance, but at the end of the day, it's our offense that is weak, with only eight points in the first quarter, and I haven't seen us play this badly in recent months." ”
The elder Jim proposed to be replaced by Paul Millsap.
"Gasol has some problems, the two strikers on the opposite side are crazy to cut into the air, Gasol has a very high level of single defensive frame, but it is a little inefficient to defend this kind of player on the move."
Wang Tomorrow thought about it for a while, and then in this pause, he arranged some new ways for the players to fight.
The timeout ended, and both sides returned to the field.
The 76ers are behind, and the 76ers fans are sweating, won't it really be as said before the game, the game will be upset, and the eighth-headed Hawks Black Eight wins, right?
The ball kicks off on the sidelines, and Iverson controls the ball in front.
Iverson usually receives the ball in the elbow area and then threatens the attack with three threats, but this time, he chose to block and pick and roll directly at the top of the arc, and it was Pau Gasol who came to block and pick.
The 76ers delayed Iverson, who was holding the ball, and Gasol went down.
Iverson pulled the ball wide and hit the ground to Pau Gasol.
Gasol's long-arm dribble broke through, attracting the Hawks' interior defense, Pachulia turned his head to look, and Dareham Porter received Gasol's pass and dunked in the air!
Pachulia got close to Gasol and served the ball quickly.
The Eagles attacked.
It was Joe Johnson who blocked the attack, and Iguodala defended Joe Johnson, waving his hand and signaling his teammates not to come over and wrap up.
Joe Johnson didn't find a pick-and-roll, which is the easiest single, but Iguodala is a better couple than Saflosa, both physically and focused, very high.
Joe Johnson tried to force Iguodala and found it bad, turned around and made a pass, and Josh Smith from outside the three-point line picked up the ball.
Kill it in the footsteps.
Carrying Saflosa's defense, then to the mid-range position, he drew the 76ers' bag and split the ball to the wing.
It was Joe Johnson, who took a step inside the three-point line and jumped out to shoot.
No.
But Josh Smith flew in and picked up a rebound behind Gasol's head to draw a foul on Gasol.
"Pushed!"
Wang Mingming was greatly dissatisfied, stood up, and flicked his hands to put pressure on the referee.
On the court, before Josh Smith grabbed the rebound, he pushed away Saflosa, who was defending him, and cut inside, which was a foul first.
The referee glanced at Wang Mingming, probably wanting not to give Wang Mingming a technical foul.
Wang Tomorrow gestured on the sidelines.
When Iguodala saw it, she nodded and stretched out her hand to organize.
It was also to open up the space, but this time, after the run, it was a blank space on the right side, and Pau Gasol opened his arms in the low post on the right side to ask for the ball.
Iguodala lobs past Pau Gasol with his back.
Defending Gasol is Marvin Williams.
Mike Woodson was stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This must be the arrangement of the king when he takes a timeout tomorrow, Pau Gasol attacks in the low post, is this to strengthen the rhythm of the interior attack?
In terms of height, Marvin Williams, who is 2.06 meters, has a forehead lower than Pau Gasol.
Marvin Williams was the star of the '05 list, with a lot of physical fitness, and he was a representative of the flying forward type of player. He has the ability to jump continuously, has a tough personality, and is able to attack from both inside and outside. However, its defense can only be regarded as an ordinary level in the same position, and the ability to defend the frame attack is stronger than the ability to defend the back.
This season, Marvin Williams appeared in 80 games, averaging 14.8 points and 5.7 rebounds per game, and was the Hawks' No. 3 scorer.
Gasol was on his back with the ball, just one step away from the three-second zone.
Gasol wanted a deep position, he took the ball and bowed, then slammed it into a right-handed hook.
The right hand is Gasol's dominant hand, and the hook in this place is within his offensive range, and his height and arm span are all stronger than Marvin Williams, and this hook Marvin can't interfere at all.
"It's so far, it's impossible to get in, right?"
Marven raised his head and looked at the high-arc basketball.
Tumbling in the air, he plunged headlong into the hoop!
"Huh!"
What a beautiful big hook hand!
Wang tomorrow applauds, this is the biggest change in the 76ers since Pau Gasol came to the 76ers, a team like the Hawks with low defensive efficiency is the time to show off the low-post offense, and last year, the 76ers could only break through the ball, and the tactics were enriched by more than one.
Defensively, Pau Gasol's long arms interfered with Marvin Williams' shots.
Soon, the 76ers took advantage of Pau Gasol's play to tie the score.
On the Hawks bench, Mike Woodson's smile faded away, sweating on his forehead, and the lead he had built up so hard was about to be eaten away before the first quarter had passed.
For the Eagles' players, the morale has dropped, and the psychology has also changed.
In the 7th minute of the first quarter, Wang adjusted tomorrow and replaced Paul Millsap with Saflosa, Iguodala became the scoring guard, and Paul Millsap played the small forward.
This lineup is not inferior to the Eagles in terms of physical condition, and it is strong in all positions.
Josh Smith found out that Paul Millsap was looking for confrontation after he came up, and began to harass him all the time, with small movements several times more than Iguodala.
"Annoying!"
Josh Smith shoved Paul Millsap away.
Paul Millsap fell to the ground screaming, and the movement was shocking.
The referee took a look, hesitated for a second, and blew the whistle with a "beep".
Foul.
Josh Smith spread his hands, looking dazed and puzzled, "Hat? ”
As soon as Paul Millsap saw the whistle blow, he got up from the floor, patted the dust off his buttocks, and walked to the sideline on his own, ready to serve.
The Eagles players were dumbfounded.
