Chapter 402: Normal Rotation for the Initial Examination
"You cocky idiot!" Marven glared at Batum and scolded in a low voice, "I think you're challenging Hougist's patience step by step and forcing him to show his fangs!" ”
Batum's musings were interrupted by Marven, but he couldn't be angry, so he could only patiently explain: "You're too impatient Marven, this is only the first quarter, in the style of Haugist, he basically won't go off the court if he doesn't lead by more than 10 points, and now the score is so stale, he will definitely stay on the court, as long as we insist on consuming him in the first half, our spring will come in the second half!" ”
"This tactic is not something that only your 'smart' mind can come up with, I remember many other teams have used this tactic as well, but I have never seen any team that can really kill Hoggist, but more than they can kill themselves! Why are you so confident? Marvin can no longer trust Batum's reasoning.
"It is precisely because of the lessons of the failures of my predecessors that I am so confident, not to mention who is better suited to deal with Hougist?" Batum handed the ball to Marvin and motioned for him to tee off.
Marvin threw the ball to Walker, still muttering unrelentingly, "Paul. George and Kevin. Durant is much better fit than you, and the Pacers and Thunder haven't lost yet? ”
"Because after George and Durant 'exchanged' with Haugist, the Pacers and Thunder have no other strong points that can beat the Lakers, but after I fight against Hogist, the Hornets will still have you!" Batum quietly touted a wave of teammates, making Marvin finally happily shut his mouth.
Walker handed the ball to Batum in the front court, Batum kept the ball and hung it under the basket, Zeller forced Turner to jump up and wanted to put the ball into the basket, Turner naturally couldn't let Zeller break the ground on his head, so he jumped up and reached out to interfere, although he thought he was clean and destroyed Batum's pass, but he was still whistled by the referee for a foul because of physical contact, and Zeller got two free throw opportunities.
Marven happily came up and high-fived Batum, "I didn't expect you to be surprised......" But Marven's words were not finished, but his face sank, "What's going on?" How did he go down? Hey, that's not what you said! ”
Batum looked back and saw that Haugist actually walked straight back to the bench and sat down. This is completely out of his expectations, according to the experience of previous games, Hougist will never choose to rest at the moment when he is about to fall behind, and Hoggist did not play at all yesterday, and now the rest can never be because of physical reasons, what is the purpose of Hoggist to choose the normal rotation for the first time?
"You really punched the cotton, you have the heart to spend with him, but he doesn't play cards according to the routine, what should you do now?" Marven ridiculed.
Batum ignored Marven's taunt and stared at Hoggist on the other side of the bench, Zeller missed the first free throw, Batum suddenly leaned in and whispered to Marven: "I think it was my consumption of Hoggist that played a role, and he would only rest when he was physically exhausted!" ”
Marven glanced at Batum, "Are you tired?" ”
"I'm not tired! I'll have no problem playing the whole session! Batum said proudly.
"You're not tired, a physical monster who has been playing for the past two months will be tired before you? Are you embarrassed to call yourself resourceful? Marven looked at Batum with contempt, "Listen to my advice, you better concentrate on playing!" Don't fight with the Chinese, you can't play with them! ”
“…… Time will tell what I say! Today we won! And voila! Batum is confident in his analysis.
With five minutes left in the first quarter, the Lakers replaced Hougist and Turner, replaced Nance Jr. and Yi Jianlian, strengthened the protection of the interior, Zeller also missed the second free throw, and Yi Jianlian protected the backcourt rebound.
Jeremy Lin dribbled to the flank of the front court, and carried out a blocking and dismantling cooperation with Yi Jianlian, Jeremy Lin borrowed Yi Jianlian's cover to move to the top of the arc, bypassed Yi Jianlian and suddenly accelerated, stepped into the three-point line to collect the ball and prepared a stop-and-go jump shot, Walker was going around, Zeller raised his hand to interfere, but Jeremy Lin hit the ball through the crotch Zeller and gave it to Yi Jianlian, Yi Jianlian had a smooth road in front of him after receiving the ball, and directly held the ball and flew to dunk violently, helping the Lakers take the lead again.
In this way, until the end of the first quarter, Hoggist did not return to the court, and the Hornets did have a slight advantage, but only chased the score to 31 draws, and did not overtake the score as Batum expected. Hoggist sat on the sidelines and saw his teammates miss some great opportunities on the offensive end from time to time, which were fleeting and unspeakable, and it was too late for him to point them out, so he had to do something in a hurry.
"You see, that's why I want you to take a rotation, whether your teammates depend on you or not, their individual skills and physical strength don't really affect much, but their keen sense of opportunity decreases as their dependence on you rises. They have the ability to cleverly run out of great space, but your passing ability is too strong, so they don't have to work hard to get easy shots, and over time, when you're not on the field, they will become a little confused, and now compress, cut your playing time, just so that they can stay sharp! Bryant explained, sitting next to Hoggist.
Hoggist savored Kobe's words, "The longer I stay on the court, the more my teammates rely on me, the more my teammates are when I'm away, the more my teammates are dish, the more I can't bear to be off the court, the more I can't bear it, the more I want to stay on the court more, and the longer I stay on the court, the more my teammates become more vegetable?" That means I'm scrapping my teammates? ”
Kobe Bryant was taken aback when he heard Hougist's self-blame, this matter is far less serious than Hoggist said, and he can't put the burden on Hoggist, so he said with good words again: "You can't say that, it's not your responsibility, you can only say that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and from luxury to thrift!" I just hope that the rest of my team-mates can be prepared for danger and not always think about winning. ”
"Well, I'm happy to accept the regular rotation from the bottom of my heart now!" Hogist nodded his head in earnest, as if he had made a very important decision.
In the second quarter, Haugist was not in a hurry to get back on the court, but continued to wait patiently on the bench, and once he figured out some problems, he became much calmer, and Haugist is now completely free from worrying about the score and no longer regretting the great opportunities his teammates missed in his eyes. All he has to do now is cheer on his teammates off the pitch.
The second quarter was kicked off by the Hornets. Jefferson beat Turner under the basket, but unfortunately Jefferson is not dominant in height and strength, although he has solid footwork, but the shot was successfully interfered with by Turner, the ball smashed on the basket and bounced far away, Reed picked up the rebound in the elbow area to push the fast break, dribbled to the front court elbow area and forced to jump up under the interference, causing a foul on Kaminsky who defended him.
Reed hit both free throws, and the Hornets came to the front court from Lamb, the king of 2K, to control the ball and force the inside, but reality and games are different after all, no matter what relationship Lamb has with the programmers of 2K Company, it can't help him get any ability bonuses in the real world, his breakthrough is not as sharp as in the game, and after two steps of collecting the ball, he still couldn't get close to the basket, so he had to divide the ball to the outside, but Reed made another steal, dribbled quickly, and Randle easily completed the front court 2 to 1.
"Looks like they're doing a good job!" Hoggist nodded at Kobe Bryant with relief, but unfortunately he was slapped in the face before his words fell, and Lamb took advantage of Kaminski's cover hand to catch the ball quickly and easily cut down two points. This made the expression on Haugist's face a little awkward.
However, a defensive mistake didn't dampen his teammates. Young borrowed Randle's cover in the front court to cut to the inside and suddenly ran back to the outside after entering the paint area, and received the ball on the wing and shot three points directly, Lamb chased the defense too late to brake and directly hit Nick in the air. Young, though Nick. Young didn't make a three-pointer with interference, but he did get three free throws.
"Haugist, it's your turn!" Shashewski stood on the sidelines and shouted to the bench behind him without looking back.
"I thought I could rest a little longer!" Hoggist joked.
Shashewski looked back and smiled: "It's okay! Are you sure you want to take a break a little longer? ”
"Don't, don't, I'm just kidding, after all, you still have to respect the normal rotation plan! Don't break the new order that has just been established! Hoggist quickly explained.
Shashewski patted Haugist on the shoulder and pushed him onto the court, "Then get ready and go on the field and teach them a lesson!" ”
Nick. Yang hit the first free throw, turned around and high-fived Haugist, who had just come on the court, "I'm just about to start cutting points!" But it doesn't matter, just give you a chance to watch me score like crazy while I'm on the field! You can also brush up on assists, rebounds, and other stats! ”
Hoggist smiled and nodded, "Then you and I'll wait to pick up your offensive rebound!" ”
Haugist's voice didn't fall, Nick. Young's second free throw came out of the basket, and Hougist mocked mercilessly: "SaggyP, this is the second free throw, I can only get the rebound if I don't score the next free throw!" ”
"Shut your crow's mouth!" Nick. Young glanced at Haugist, adjusted his rhythm seriously, and threw the third free throw into the basket steadily.
Lamb dribbles
Come to the front court and borrow the "big AI" Al. Jefferson's cover broke into the inside line, hit the ground and divided the ball to Jefferson, Randle was quick and cut the ball successfully, but Jefferson's acting skills were more skilled, because the inside line was crowded, and the referee's vision was disturbed, so he exaggerated and pretended to be hit by a strong catch, thinking that there were dates and no dates to hit three poles, but he didn't expect the referee to be really immersed in his acting skills, hesitated for a moment or blew the thug foul, and also decided that Jefferson's "strong layup" was a coherent action, and directly gave a free throw.
Randle widened his bull's-eyed bells and looked at the referee in disbelief, but the referee ignored the innocent Randle and stood directly on the baseline with the ball, waiting for Jefferson to make a free throw.
Randle looked at the Hornets' short-sleeved jersey with BUZZ CITY embroidered on his chest and complained, "hat a buzz city!" ”
"It seems that the more angry you are, the smarter you are, Julie, you can use puns!" Hougist patted Randall on the shoulder in encouragement.
Jefferson's low-post skills are solid, but his free throw skills are not very good, the first free throw is completely unbounded, Randle took the rebound and slapped it and handed it to the referee, which made him feel more comfortable, so he seriously stuck in the position and prepared to grab the rebound of the second free throw. Unexpectedly, Jefferson easily scored the second goal, and the most annoying thing was that he nodded to Randle after the goal, as if thanking him for the good luck of the free throw he had brought to him before the shot.
Randle gritted his teeth and ignored Jefferson, drove the ball to Haugist, and came to the frontcourt step by step, according to the established tactics for Nick. Young made an off-ball screen, but unexpectedly Nick. Young rounded the cover at the top of the arc and received a cross from Hoggist and hit Jefferson directly, the ball rolled to the side, Hoggist flew to pounce, but it was a step too late, Lamb preemptively clicked the ball, and the ball bounced off in front of Hougist, allowing Hoggist to pounce.
Lamb also followed closely behind and flew past Horgist and continued to dribble and sprint to the front court. Young tried to make up for his mistake and tried to chase back from the front court, ready to interfere with Lamb, but Lamb passed the ball to Kaminsky, Nick. Young continued to defend Kaminski, but Kaminski returned the ball to Lamb again.
By this time, Lamb was ready outside the three-point line on the wing. Young was unable to turn back to make up for the defense under the action of inertia, and Horgist only rushed through the half court when he got up, and there was still a certain distance from Lamb, Lamb calmly shot without defense, and the ball drew a beautiful arc in the air, crossed the basket from the side, and hit the corner between the basket and the rebound, and bounced into the hands of Randle, who returned to the defense.
Randle was stupid when he received the ball, this is the all-powerful Jeremy in NBA2K. Lamb? The empty three-point position is crooked like this? Hoggist saw Randle holding the ball in a daze, and waved anxiously for the ball at half-time, Randle reacted and threw the ball to Hoggist, who dribbled a step to the wing Nick. Yang, Nick. Yang received the ball and made a three-point stop, and the ball brushed out of the basket again.
Jefferson received the rebound and stuffed it to Lamb, Lamb dribbled to the front court again, and used Kaminski's arc top cover to break into the inside, Hoggist easily cut off the ball from the front, directly launched a fast attack, quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and hit the free throw line to face P.J. Hairston's supplementary defense, Haugist's body turned to the right side to break through, but his hand made a behind-the-back dribble action.
Hairston instinctively wanted to move to the left to defend Hougist, but Hoggist's dribble behind made him hesitate, and he walked to the right and dribbled the ball to the left? Isn't this giving yourself a steal for nothing? So Hairston forced his center of gravity and did not walk away with Hoggist, trying to reach out and disrupt Haugist's dribble.
