Chapter 382: An incomprehensible arrangement
"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth!" After the ball was scored, Hougist proudly said to Pierce: "This is Grandpa Mao's famous saying, I will give it to you today, and I will encourage you!" ”
"Neurotic!" Pierce gave Hougist a blank look.
Prigioni dribbled to the front court, divided the ball to the bottom corner Pierce, Pierce dribbled to a low post for a quick stop, jumped up and shot a shot from a negative angle, Hougist really didn't expect Pierce to shoot at a negative angle, so there was a disposition in the process of retreating, but he got such a rare shot space, Pierce's shot came out of the basket and missed, and Hougist turned around to collect the rebound.
Transported to the front court, Hougist found that Yi Jianlian was in a fast position and had taken the lead in rushing to the paint area, so Hoggist directly hoisted the ball to the basket, and Yi Jianlian directly reached out to put the basket, but was violated by Bai Ade again and failed to complete the layup. The referee blew for a foul, and Yi Jianlian walked to the free throw line and scored one of two free throws.
The Clippers restarted, White Ade responded at the top of the arc and played a block with Crawford, Crawford missed a strong shot by covering, and it was Prigioni who struggled to shoot the rebound, and Pierce did not hesitate to receive the ball, and directly shot a three-pointer. Although Hougist failed to block Pierce's shot, Pierce still failed to take advantage of the opportunity, and the ball still brushed out of the basket.
Yi Jianlian dialed the rebound to Reed and directly launched a conversion attack, Reed dribbled quickly to the frontcourt, and did not slow down in the face of Crawford's defense at the top of the arc, wanting to dribble fancy, but he failed to hold the ball when he made the move, and directly threw the ball out of the bottom line.
Now the Clippers have no superstars on the court, and they play tactics strictly, passing the ball to each other in the frontcourt, but the Lakers' big lineup is not bad for defensive fluidity, and the Clippers did not export opportunities, Pierce once again used his big ass to cover for Finson, and at the same time passed the ball hand-to-hand, Finson missed a three-point stop jump shot around the cover, and Haugist laughed again at the rebound.
Dribbling to the frontcourt, Haugist accelerated and bypassed horizontally in front of Yi Jianlian, went around the elbow area on the other side and took a step back to keep parallel to Yi Jianlian, who was cutting in the air, and at the same time hit the ground and split the ball to the middle, but the ball smashed on Bai Ade's foot and did not bounce back, but rolled to the side, Reed was lucky to pick up the ball and saved Haugist from a mistake that was basically certain, but the subsequent three-point shot Reed still failed to hit the basket.
The three points of the Reeds were sent back by the basket, but Jamal . Crawford intercepted the ball from halfway through, quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and performed his famous trick of jumping behind the back, easily past the reeds, who had to reach for Crawford and stop him with a foul.
Crawford hit both free throws to stretch the margin to 10 points again. Hougist dribbled to the front court, moved two steps to the left, and signaled Yi Jianlian to come up to cover, but when Yi Jianlian was about to come to the three-point line, Hogist waved him to sink inside. Yi Jianlian just took two steps back, but saw Hoggist signaling him to come up and cover.
Yi Jianlian was also smart, knowing that Hougist was not a capricious or hesitant person, and that there must be some ghost idea in doing so, so he put on an impatient expression to cooperate with his performance. After tossing back and forth a few times like this, Pierce couldn't help but glance back curiously at what was going on, and at this moment when Pierce was distracted, Hougist suddenly accelerated to start, and stepped past Pierce to make a pull-up jump shot in the elbow area, and scored 2 points steadily.
Prigioni plays with the ball in the frontcourt, and Nick. Young thought that his legs and feet were too slow, so he deliberately sold a flaw to let him break through to the inside, and Prigioni really did not hesitate to dribble and rush into the inside, slowly and leisurely into the paint area, and was about to collect the ball and throw, Nick. Young flew up from the side to give Prigioni a big hat, but he didn't expect Prigioni's closing to be a feint.
Prigioni's feints deceived Nick though. Yang, but if you go to the basket with Yi Jianlian to guard, it is still a dead end, but Prigioni is worthy of being an Argentine, and he also has a bit of a South American freehand style, and he really rushed to the basket against Yi Jianlian's defense, and then threw the ball backwards, as if he was going to throw it to his teammates to catch it empty.
But Prigioni still looks up to White Ade too much, White Ade is not Little Jordan and Griffin after all, and he doesn't have such a perverted physical fitness, although Yi Jianlian was transferred away from the mountain by Prigioni, but Bai Ade is in Nick. Under Yang's interference, he only caught the ball in the air, and there was no energy left to complete the air relay.
After Bai Ade received the ball and landed, he was full of strength, and he rose to the ground again and prepared to dunk with both hands, but at this time, Yi Jianlian had already returned to his position, raised his long arm and easily flew the ball fan in Bai Ade's hand. Hougist picked up the rebound, dribbled directly to the frontcourt, and saw that Nance Jr. had copied from the other side to the front, Horgist felt that this was a great opportunity, and wanted to throw the ball directly to Nance Jr., but unexpectedly did not control the ball, and directly threw the ball in the face of the retreating Pierce, and popped off the sideline after a headshot.
Hougist hurriedly raised his hand to apologize to Pierce, Pierce also knew that Hoggist had been dominant in the period of time against him, and this action should be a mistake, but he was still very unhappy after suffering so much in vain, glared at Hoggist and thought about it, the dead ball state can't do anything, it is better to wait until the game to teach him a good lesson.
4 minutes into the second quarter, this time neither side made any substitution adjustments, the Lakers reopened the sideline ball, Hoggist went around the basket to the top of the arc to receive the ball, but Pierce still squeezed away the opponent and teammates, and followed closely, Hoggist had no chance to shoot, and directly distributed the ball to Yi Jianlian, who was ready to come up to block and cover.
Yi Jianlian came up to cover for Hoggist, but Hougist wanted to pass the ball to him, which caught him off guard, but Hoggist's pass was just a feint, and he was about to get out of the control of his hand, but he was caught back by Hoggist, but at this time, Pierce was distracted by Hougist's fake pass, and Hougist took this opportunity to jump directly and hit a three-point shot again.
The Clippers bench continued to attack the frontcourt, and the Clippers' starters on the bench stood up and took off their coats to get ready to play. Crawford didn't have enough on the court, so he seized the time to attack another wave of his own, dashing through the crossover to hit an inside throw.
Hoggist came to the front court again, this time he was three steps away from the three-point line for Yi Jianlian to come up to cover, but Hoggist was not in a hurry to break through or shoot with the cover. Yi Jianlian was a little inexplicable, Pierce was also unclear, Bai Ade didn't follow the defense because he was too slow, so he didn't understand what the Lakers wanted to do, and Haugist was waiting for the whistle with confidence.
Sure enough, within a few seconds, the referee blew the whistle directly without any changes in the position of everyone on the field, and the body did not have any excessive contact.
The Clippers replaced Prigioni, Finson and White and replaced Paul and Wesley. Johnson and Jordan Jr. The Lakers, on the other hand, replaced Reed and brought back Kobe.
Hoggist easily hit a free throw, and the margin narrowed to six points. The Lakers sent the sideline ball again, Horgist borrowed Yi Jianlian's cover to break into the inside, and directly distributed the ball from the top of his head, Yi Jianlian followed up after the cover, reached out to catch the ball, but found that the arc of the ball was towering into the sky, and he couldn't catch it at all. It turned out that Hougist's shot this time was for the weak-side three-point line outside the Nicks. Yang's. It was a surprise, Nick. When Yang received the ball, he did get the opportunity to shoot in the open space, but unfortunately the ball he threw missed the iron, and the rebound was naturally easily accepted by Jordan Jr.
Jordan Jr. gave the ball to Paul, Paul quickly got the ball to Pierce, Pierce received the ball in the front court and quickly shot a three-point shot, but before his hand could be raised, the ball was cut off by Horgist. Haugist quickly counterattacked after breaking the ball, but he was careless, Haugist only cared about observing the situation in front of him, but was accidentally cut off by Paul from behind again.
This time Paul cut off the ball and quickly went up again to Pierce, Pierce's own offensive opportunity was good, but still distributed the ball to Crawford under the empty basket, Crawford got up and made a layup by Nick. Yang hugged him directly, but he couldn't lift his arms. The referee breathed a sigh of relief, this foul may be the least controversial foul in today's game, and he can finally blow the foul boldly!
Crawford stepped up to the free-throw line, and although both shots were a little shaky, the ball eventually went into the basket and Griffin used the dead ball to get back on the court.
At this time, Hoggist made a bolder substitution, he removed Yi Jianlian and Nance Jr., and replaced them with Jeremy Lin and Turner. This lineup is a little confusing, there is only Turner on the inside, how can he withstand the impact of Griffin and Jordan Jr.?
Jeremy Lin dribbled to the front court and saw that Hoggist was in a position on the inside, and everyone realized that Hoggist actually wanted to go to the inside line, and even the offense had to be played inside, so there was no need to ask Hoggist defensively and planned to play against Griffin.
"This guy is crazy, isn't he? His advantage is obviously speed and projection ability on the perimeter, so why give up his advantage to ask for trouble on the inside? Ingram exclaimed.
"Maybe he has an advantage on the inside, too? You see, he's not much different in height from Griffin! And Howgist's flexibility is not covered, didn't he play DeAndre and Griffin in a row just now? Now on the offensive end, Haugist has a mismatch advantage, and if the Clippers don't change their defensive strategy, I think they will continue to suffer a lot from Haugist! Ingram's friends, on the other hand, have blind confidence in Hogist.
"But when the Clippers attack, it's the Lakers' turn to suffer! Seriously, do you think Howgist can withstand Griffin's onslaught? Look at Griffin's arms thicker than Haugist's calves! Ingram seemed to think of the scene when he was injured in the first place, and he seemed a little apprehensive.
"Latitude doesn't mean strength, do you know the theory of 'dead muscles'?" Ingram's friend retorted.
Ingram shook his head with disdain, "First, basketball players don't practice bodybuilding, and they don't do targeted training for the sake of good muscle lines, so our muscles, every piece is useful, and thick means that the strength is great; Second, dead muscles are stronger than no muscles! ”
Only then did Ingram's friend show an anxious expression, "Isn't Haugist cool according to what you say?" ”
"Let's take a look first, what I know about Hoggist won't do things that I'm not sure about, maybe my technical and tactical level is not high enough to understand Hoggist's deep intentions, right?" Ingram muttered in her heart.
When Ingram and his friends were eagerly discussing, the game on the court was also in full swing, and Hougist began to wave frantically for the ball after barely standing in the low post, and it stands to reason that the point guard should ignore this unreasonable demand, but who on the Lakers team doesn't know that Hougist will become full of bad eyes as soon as he steps on the court, and he is full of drama spirits? Jeremy Lin just glanced at Hoggist and understood that he must have something to do, so Jeremy Lin also pretended to be reluctant and hoisted the ball to Hoggist.
After receiving the ball, Hougist actually began to hit Griffin with his back, but it seemed that he was really at a loss in terms of strength, not only could he not resist Griffin at all, but even his center of gravity was about to be lost, and he staggered on the dribble, and there was a feeling that he would lose the ball at any time.
"Hogist's strength is really not good! If someone comes to pinch it, you can break the ball with a casual pull! "Ingram is not good.
Ingram can see that the NBA players on the court are more experienced than the other, how can he not know? Before Ingram could speak, he saw Wesley in the bottom corner of the strong side. Johnson pressed up with a lunge and was about to cut the ball.
Just when the audience was sweating for Hoggist, Hoggist's face was replaced with a meaningful smile. Seeing this burst of smiles, Wesley. Johnson suddenly had an ominous premonition in his mind and hurriedly forced the brakes, but it was too late, and Hougist maintained a delicate balance in his seemingly stumbling gait, and with a flick of his hand, he took the ball away from Wesley. Johnson slammed his crotch through and into the bottom corner of Kobe's hand.
Wesley. Johnson didn't have time to think about it, and immediately reflexively pounced on Kobe Bryant after recovering the momentum of his advance, but Kobe Bryant was more experienced and dribbled directly past Wesley. Johnson, rushing inside for a pullup jumper, threw out an open jumper. The picturesque shooting action ensured the trajectory of the ball, and Bryant also scored two points easily.
