Chapter 125: Rebounding Maniac

"What a talent!" Warriors coach Mark Jackson on the sidelines watched Li Mojie's flowing offensive skills on the sidelines, clapped his hands and said to the assistant coach next to him.

Born in Brooklyn, New York City, and educated at St. John's University, Mark Jackson was selected by the New York Knicks in the 18th round of the 1987 draft and won the NBA Rookie of the Year title the following year

Last season, Curry single-handedly led not only the Warriors back to the playoffs but also to the second round, falling to the feet of the Western Conference champion Spurs after the Warriors traded away Monta Alice, proving that the team's choice was not wrong. Curry's three-point shooting is very accurate, and there are many shots that use fancy dribbling or directly facing defenders, and even some are considered by many to be blind balls, but they can hit, so they are called perverted accurate by many people.

Curry dribbled the ball to the halfcourt, at this time Bledsoe didn't dare to take a step away from him, when Curry dribbled through the Suns half, Bledsoe stuck to it, this is Curry's tactical role, he can open up enough offensive space for the team!

Curry did not directly challenge Bledsoe's defense, after signaling Bogutra to block and dismantle, Curry and the team's center played a blocking and dismantling cooperation, and the ball was immediately distributed to Bogut's hands, Bogut received the ball directly after that very fast and very stable, he didn't bend his knees much, and he got up on tiptoe. The hand work is also very good, the second offensive hand work is also very good, often follow up the basket or dunk, the defensive end is flexible enough to make up for the basket is also good, the blocking habit is particularly good, the block is similar to Duncan, not easy to jump, the toes are lightly on the ground, the hand is raised to the highest to interfere with the shot, unlike the fly swatter block of the physical fitness man, so the defensive effect is very good. However, at this time, Channingfrye was very focused, and he was also holding his breath in his heart after being blocked by Bogut just now, and he blocked in front of Bogut: "You don't want to score in front of Lao Tzu again!" ”

In the Warriors' tactics, Bogut does not have the tactic of scoring with his back to the opposing center, so when David Lee yelled, Bogut immediately passed the ball to David Lee on the inside, and David Lee hit Markieff Morris twice on his back, and then directly turned around and pulled back to the right to break through to the basket.

"Beautiful inside footsteps! David Lee from the Warriors! When Director Zhang saw David Lee's excellent interior offensive skills, he couldn't help but shout.

"Yes, this David Lee should not be underestimated, he was once the star of the New York Knicks, and although his defense is still not good after coming to the Warriors, he is still the same double-double machine!" Teacher Yang Jian added.

The Warriors' first two offenses went very well, but the Suns on the other end were different, as Middleton and Frye received a pass from Bledsoe after blocking and rebounding, and the three-pointers bounced off the basket.

"Watch for rebounds!" Hornacek shouted anxiously from the sidelines.

But the competition for rebounds is not based on the will of the people on the sidelines, and the Warriors' white players on the inside, David Lee and Bogut are all with the attribute of rebounding idiots, compared to the Suns' Markieff and Frye, the strength of the opposite two to compete for rebounds is significantly higher.

"Rebounds, whose ones? David Lee's! Director Zhang explained.

"In the first month of the season, the Warriors have averaged 17.6 rebounds per game on the two interior lines, ranking third among the 30 teams in the league, which is a terrifying statistic! Coupled with the splash brothers shooters on the outside, this is complementary to each other, generally speaking, if there are very rebounders on the court, the confidence and stability of the outside shooters will be higher, which is why the Warriors have risen in the past two seasons! Teacher Yang Jian explained.

David Lee grabbed the rebound and handed it to Curry, who dribbled through the half court unhurriedly and waited for both whites to be in position before starting to organize the offense. The Warriors continued to attack Bogut at this time, but this time, the ball holder was replaced by Thompson, who still blocked and dismantled after Thompson took the ball, and then split Bogut.

This time, Frye's return defense was more timely, but Bogut was already relatively close to the basket at this time, and relying on Fry, Bogut hooked his hand and hit the basket.

The Suns seemed to be a little far from their second score, as Frye missed a mid-range shot after receiving a mid-range pass from a mid-range block from Jeffrey Lee, and the rebound was grabbed by Bogut, and then Thompson hit a three-pointer, so anxious that Hornacek quickly called a timeout.

"The Suns called a timeout, the current score on the court is 2:9, and the Warriors who are playing away are in good shape, and they gave the Suns a dismissal from the beginning." Director Zhang nodded and said.

On the Suns bench, Hornacek angrily shouted, "What are you guys doing!" As soon as the opening was beaten like this, how did I set it up before the game? Can't grab rebounds, can't offense go in? ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, Hornacek emphasized the tactics again: "Frye, did I tell you to shrink in the three-second zone and let Bogut go, move out on the defensive end, and shoot Bogutra if he doesn't come out?" This tactic is Hornacek's tactical arrangement with reference to the Trail Blazers and Spurs when they played the Warriors, because although Bogut can grab rebounds and is an interior barrier, the shortcomings of no scoring means and mobility make many teams in the league like to use the big open jump shot after blocking and dismantling when facing the Warriors, and directly shoot the Warriors into a sieve.

After the timeout, the Suns used the blocking, Markieff and Frye are both players with mid-range shooting ability, which makes the Warriors very uncomfortable inside, if you don't come out, he will shoot, as soon as you come out, there is room for the inside, Bledsoe Li Mojie is a good player to break through, so the Suns quickly stabilized the situation, but the Warriors' offense did play well, and the Suns were not able to narrow the score.

At 17:22 of the first quarter, the Suns trailed the Warriors by five points.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Hornacek replaced Gobert and Gerald Green, and Lee Mojie played point guard. The Warriors, on the other hand, brought on Marys Spates and Draymond Green, as well as Bogut and Harrison Barnes.

Before going on the court, Mark Jackson also specially advised, "Green, you go up and be responsible for defending the No. 22 rookie opposite, you know?" Get him away from our basket, can a man? ”

"Yes, I can, Boss!" Green stared at Li Mojie, who was loved by the audience on the other side, and said angrily.

Green had a low draft pick, and he was an older draft player (22 years old), and was not selected by the Warriors until the second round in 2012. Green is very strong, but the reality is cruel, the height of 2.01 is really too bad to play inside in the NBA, no one is optimistic about Green, and Green has not had many opportunities after joining the Warriors. In the summer of 2010, David Lee moved from the Knicks to the Warriors for a six-year, 80 million yuan, as a starting power forward, and was selected as an All-Star in the 2012-2013 season. In his first year, Green played 79 games as David Lee's bench, but only played 13.4 minutes per game, contributing 2.9 points and 3.4 rebounds.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, Li Mojie came on the court to control the ball until the half, only to find this familiar black face, Li Mojie smiled at the corner of his mouth and said: "Oh? You think Harrison can't stop me, can you? ”

Unexpectedly, Green didn't admit it at all, he chattered: "Who do you think you are?" James or Kobe? You're neither, you're just a rookie this year, and you think you're sorry for a few games in your rookie season? When you meet me, Uncle Green, you will show your original form by yourself! ”
