Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Targeted Jiye

This was probably Kidd's most tiring first quarter, and he didn't expect that the opposite side would directly send Qiao Shen to defend him.

"That's what I do."

Ji Ye smiled helplessly, facing Jordan's encirclement, blocking, and robbing, he had to regret it. But the final result shows that although his body is strong in point guards, he only has abused points against Jordan, and he is inferior to the opponent in terms of height, weight, strength, and speed.

Without Ji Ye's organization, the Nets offensive team that could beat the iron-blooded Pistons only by relying on offense disappeared directly.

Jefferson is no longer fed, he can only be regarded as an ordinary striker, and he is also miserable in the face of Barkley's lump meat. The flying dribbles that I usually play are also full of mistakes and omissions at this time, and they are frequently interrupted.

Feeding the ball is very important for the likes of Jefferson and Chandler Parsons, as they don't have a dribble break that can be a quick one, and the offensive space needs to be created.

However, they also have the advantage of being able to finish well, which becomes very strong when paired with a good passer.

As soon as Kidd loses power, the Nets' trident is no longer sustainable, and the Wizards are going to have another easy victory.

So far, Hu Qingniu's first tactic has worked, and no other coach's team has been able to make up for its own team weaknesses and switch team models, thus breaking Hu Qingniu's tactical limitations.

A team that can have multiple forms is a real super team that can hide weaknesses, and the Wizards have not encountered this kind of challenge in the East, so can't the Nets?

Everything for the Nets is brought by Kidd, and if Kidd's ability to face Joe's defense is like this, then the Nets will be saved.

At least in the first quarter of the game between the Wizards and the Nets, Kidd was powerless, and the Wizards easily took the lead and continued their strong opening.

Nets coach Byron Scott, although he is only a rookie as a coach, has seen too many storms and waves as a member of the glorious Lakers in the 80s. The difficult start didn't make him lose his confidence, and he pulled Kidd through the break to set up a new tactic.

Sure enough, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Nets changed their lineup.

Dekembe Mutombo, who has not been present with the Nets, has been promoted to the main position in the line of fire, and he will start alongside Martin.

Compared with Kenyon Martin's leaky defense on all sides, Uncle Mu, who is too old to remember his age, is much more reliable.

Hu Qingniu saw the changes in the Nets on the sidelines, he decided to see the effect first, he had already guessed that the Nets wanted to use the block to crack Jordan's marking, but can Uncle Mu really play the same game as he did when the 76ers won the best defensive player two years ago?

Kidd slapped the basketball and came to the outside of the three-point line, and he was chased enough in this game, and playing blocking and pick-and-roll was also his best tactic.

Without Kidd beckoning, Uncle Mu, who came on the field with a mission, moved slowly and came over to block the demolition. Jordan wanted to squeeze through from one side, but Uncle Mu, who was with a wide body, covered with high quality. The tonnage of this kind of big center will not be something that Jordan can shake.

This African mountain was suppressed in the path that Jordan had to pass when defending, and Jordan had no choice but to call his teammates to make up for it.

Kidd finally moved away from Jordan, and this time it was really sky-high.

Kidd drove at full speed and quickly broke through. He is not a speed guard, and in the face of Ewing's defense, he chose a slow three-step layup and squeezed under the basket.

Ewing, who has dominated the East for more than ten years, will certainly not be afraid of such slow layups, although Ewing's physical strength is very strong, but his sense of rhythm is also very good, otherwise he will not become the king of the four centers.

Just when Ewing counted three seconds silently in his heart, aimed at the timing of Kidd's shot, and was about to give a big hat.

Sudden mutation!

The basketball that Kidd was playing with left and right in his hand didn't know when it was gone, probably a back pass or a crotch pass or something like that, but now the ball is gone.

When the camera caught it again, the ball was already in the hands of Jefferson, who was not afraid of tigers, kicked his right leg, and was about to dunk with a lunge.

Ewing's massive body was a burden at this point, his steps were a little slow, and before he could turn around, Jefferson had already come down from the basket.

The Nets recovered two points, and the series of coordinated dunks all happened in a flash of lightning, which fully demonstrated the Nets' terrifying scoring ability when Kidd was liberated.

But Hu Qingniu on the field was not in a hurry, and the old god was still drinking on the ground.

Hu Qingniu firmly believes that such a Nets team can't beat them, and although replacing a big man who is good at blocking and dismantling can liberate Kidd, it also slows down the Nets.

With the same slow pace of the game, the Wizards' offensive firepower can't afford to lose to any team.

The Wizards only need unlimited singles to win at such a slow pace, and such a game does not need to be commanded by Hu Qingniu.

Sure enough, the rest of the whole game was in Hu Qingniu's expectations, although the Nets' offensive grasp has come up, but the Wizards have always suppressed the score.

The Wizards lived up to expectations and went first.

Jordan only scored 18 points in this game, but had 5 steals and 3 blocks, completely becoming the most reassuring outside gate for the Wizards.

Kidd changed his majesty when he swept the Pistons, and only got 9 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 turnovers in this game.

Kidd, who was so depressed, made the Nets powerless to resist and lost by 20 points.

On the other side, the Spurs and Mavericks were also in full swing.

As the two teams with the highest winning percentage in the first decade of the 21st century, the confrontation between Duncan and Nowitzki is the main theme of the future West, and the bull-horse war has created countless classics.

It is often assumed that the confrontation between Nowitzki and Duncan is a dialogue between the future power forward and the traditional power forward. But in fact, in Hu Qingniu's view, Duncan should actually be regarded as an all-round power forward, but Duncan is not as fancy as KG, but he has a lot of skills.

Judging from the first scene, the battle between the driver and Deng Dudu, which is not superior, but surprising to everyone. The Dallas Cowboys, who were playing away from home, took the home court of the Spurs, who were on high demand for the championship.

As the absolute hero of the victory, the driver scored 38 points and 15 rebounds, and the decisive moment was the final word, leading the Cowboys to complete a 10-point comeback in the fourth quarter.

Although he was the loser, no one would blame Duncan, who was no worse than Nowitzki.

40 points, 15 rebounds and 7 assists, 14-of-20, 70 percent shooting, and a near-perfect performance still couldn't lead the Spurs to a victory.

The Spurs are currently Duncan's one-man team, and the GDP troika that Popovich is trying to build has not yet taken shape. As soon as they came up, they lost their home stadium, and the real battle for the Spurs has arrived.
