Chapter 639: Basketball Is Round (Second Update!) )

There was a commotion among the fans at the scene, they never thought that the home team, which was fierce on offense, would play with the Nets like this.

Korver's three-pointer was not scored despite interference, and it was his third three-pointer since the opening game.

The scene was in an uproar.

The Hawks shot 32.1 from three-point range in the regular season this season, fourth in the league, and second in the league in 38.2 shooting percentage, behind the Warriors in the West.

As the team's three-point champion, Korver averaged 6 three-point shots per game this season, and his season shooting percentage was 49.2, which was the first in the league!

But now he's conceded three goals in a row!

Tang Tian got up and made a new tactical gesture, after the Nets advanced to the frontcourt, it was still Jokic who responded outside the three-point line, but the other players did not run the tactics as before, a simple off-ball block, after Joe Johnson misplaced Korver, others directly opened up the space.

Jokic hoisted the ball high and Johnson sat and hit Korver directly.

The other four members of the Nets have three-point shooting ability, and the space is very large, and the Hawks' help defense can't go up.

Johnson sank his weight and chiseled Korver in, pressed to the inside and then turned to hit the board.

"Bang!"

The ball hits the rebound and bounces off the basket and bounces off the basket.

But Johnson pressed Korver back up and still put the ball in the basket.

The Nets scored first.

The Hawks also played team play in the frontcourt, and Horford had a three-point opportunity at the top of the circle, and he suddenly chose to shoot.

Jokic could have made three points, but he was also 100 percent focused at this time, and his aggressive saves almost took Horford.

Horford's three points didn't touch the frame, and it turned out to be a three-pointer!

Johnson picked up a defensive rebound under the basket, and the Hawks' offense was again in vain!

Delon advanced to the front court with the ball, saw that Johnson had misplaced the front court against Korver, did not give Jokic, and directly gave the ball in.

On the weak side, Carroll wanted to come over to help, but Johnson, who was experienced in backplay, sensed a pass from beyond the three-point line and forced him back.

The rest of the Nets on the court also quickly opened up the space, and after Johnson retracted the ball, there was another hard chisel, and when he reached the low post, he deceived Korver with a feint to the free throw line, and then turned around to the baseline and threw a shot directly back.

"Huh!"

The ball went straight into the hollow net.

Joe Johnson scored 4 points in a row after breaking the deadlock!

There was a commotion at the scene, Johnson was the former "Eagle King", but now he is an opponent, and he played a leader-level performance at a critical moment.

The Hawks continued to run up front, this time with Horford in the high post with his back to the front, and Teague borrowed Millsap to pick up the ball.

However, Yi Jianlian is very fast, he will replace it after dismantling, and he will pounce when he replaces.

"Bang!"

Teague's shot was directly rewarded with a hot pot!

Before the audience could exclaim, Delon on the outside picked up the ball that was blocked, accelerated away from Korver, and scored a fast-break layup directly in the frontcourt.

6 to 0!

Budenholzer reached out and called a timeout.

The Nets directly stopped the Hawks!

"It's a good performance, keep the intensity on the defensive end, and they're likely to start playing singles in the next round, don't give the opponent a chance to easily misplace, and don't change when they encounter blocks, and give them space to take a step." Tang Tian said quickly to the team members.

After the timeout, players from both sides came on one after another, and neither side adjusted the lineup.

The live footage was given to Tang Tian.

The Nets' abrupt change of play before the timeout worked wonders.

Tang Tian looked at the field intently.

Team and individual, coordination and singles, seem to be opposites, but at the same time they are connected, just like basketball is round, the ultimate goal of any style of play is to put the ball in the basket, which one is more preferred depends on the situation on the court.

The continuous cooperation offensive failure in the opening court shows that Budenhozer has also made full preparations before the game, and he is also fully organizing the team cooperation of the Nets.

At this time, Tang Tian's experience and on-the-spot command ability were reflected, and he took the lead in adjusting and giving the Nets an advantage.

After the pause, Teague attacked the frontcourt, Carroll and Korver continued to make off-ball blocks for Millsap, but the Nets did not change, Millsap and Yi Jianlian finally stood more than a meter apart, and when Teague gave the ball in, Yi Jianlian had already posted it in front of him.

There was not much time left to attack, and Millsap forced Yi Jianlian to a front, but when he shot, he was interfered with, and the ball was still deflected out of the basket.

There was no commotion on the scene, the game played for more than 5 minutes, and the home team didn't score a point!

Delon advanced to the front court with the ball, Joe Johnson continued to fall low, and the Hawks did not change at this time, Johnson received the ball and did not play, returned the ball to Delon, and Delon took the ball to reorganize.

At this time, the experience of the two sides in organizing defenders comes out.

Instead of showing panic or direct attack, Deron motioned for Jokic to quickly drop low and back to Horford, and wait for the others to pull away before hoisting the ball in.

Jokic has a big body and deep enough for this ball, although he doesn't have much time to attack, he directly pressed Horford to turn around after receiving the ball.

Horford struggled to block Jokic's hand and was whistled for a foul by the referee.

He could only shake his head helplessly.

The average height of the Hawks on the defensive end is very low, Millsap is a pseudo-No. 4 position, Horford used to play power forward, this lineup is more like a small lineup, the defensive end relies on help defense to make up for the height disadvantage, after being pulled out of the court by the Nets, the one-on-one defense on the inside seems to be very disadvantaged.

After all, Delon is the one who has played in the finals for many years, and he found out about it after playing for a while.

In the face of boos, Jokic made one of two free throws to give the Nets a 7-0 lead at the start of the game.

The Hawks also wanted to create a mismatch for Millsap, but the Nets didn't give it to life, Teague continued to simplify his style of play, and took advantage of Horford's blocking and pick-and-roll, and the ball was interfered with by Jokic and didn't score, but fortunately, the referee gave the whistle.

After Teague hit both free throws, he finally broke the scoring drought for the home team.

Looking back, Jokic also fell to the low post to play Horford, this time the Hawks didn't do it, as soon as Jokic received the ball, Millsap on the weak side quickly helped to defend it.

But almost at the same time, Jokic, who just turned his head slightly, made a creative ground-hitting pass, and the ball passed directly from the gap between Horford and Millsap to the right sideline, where Yi Jianlian was rushing over.

Thanks to Tang Tian who put Jokic on the starting lineup early, Yi Jianlian was prepared for Jokic's pass, and at this time he bent down to catch the ball and took two steps, and before Millsap returned to defense, he jumped high and pressed the ball into the basket with both hands.

"Bang!"

With Yi Jianlian's violent deduction score, the score on the field became 10 to 2!

The Nets are playing with a rainbow of momentum, which looks like the eighth team in the East, but it is more like the first team in the East!
