Chapter 30: Defense! Defend! (Above)

The game is about to begin, and this time Spurs head coach "Bobo" Vic rested Kawhi Leonard and arranged for Anderson to start. Also joining the truce was the demon sword Ginobili.

76ers starting lineup: McConnell, Zhang Zifeng, Grant, Holmes, Noll.

Spurs starting lineup: Parker, Green, Anderson, Aldridge, Duncan.

A whistle blew and the basketball was thrown into the air.

Although nicknamed the No. 21 rookie, Duncan is a 39-year-old veteran.

In the jump ball session, Knoll won the ball without any suspense. Knoll flicked his fingers and slapped the ball at T.J. McConnell.

Although McConnell is not strong in breakthrough ability compared to Cannan, and the offense is relatively poor. But he's a true pitch commander who can get everyone involved in the attack, execute the tactics the coach has given him, and rarely make mistakes.

The most important thing is that he is extremely aggressive on the defensive end, willing to fight and a difficult defender.

Since deciding to build defense, Brown has pushed McConnell to the starting line-up and put Zhang Zifeng back at shooting guard.

Seeing his teammates get the ball, Zhang Zifeng hurriedly ran forward.

Returning to the scoring guard, Zhang Zifeng no longer needs to pay attention to the running position of his teammates at all times, and his task has become very simple, which is to score and score again.

As soon as he ran to the frontcourt, McConnell passed the ball to Zhang Zifeng as soon as possible.

Seeing Zhang Zifeng taking the ball, Green hurriedly came up to mark the defense.

Green is very aggressive off the ball, accurate from threes, good defensively, and a very good 3-and-D player.

Facing Green, Zhang Zifeng chose singles.

It's a common tactic used by the 76ers, who are currently struggling with an offense. Zhang Zifeng's opening here is also conducive to the creation space of other teammates.

However, Zhang Zifeng broke through Green's pull-up jump shot, and the basket was very faceless and refused directly.

The ball bounced off the basket.

Although Duncan is a veteran, anyone who underestimates him will definitely suffer a big loss.

Duncan immediately stuck in the main position, stuck Noll behind him, and then Duncan jumped up and grabbed the rebound with one hand.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zifeng had to admire this veteran, although he is not known for his bounce or physical strength, but his rebounding ability has always been the top in the NBA.

Switching offense and defense, the Spurs' offense unfolded quickly.

Parker is also old and has been inconsistent since the injury last season.

But this season, Parker will show his NBA Finals MVP from time to time.

Facing McConnell, Parker didn't choose to go it alone, but passed the ball to Aldridge on the inside.

Since moving to the Spurs, Aldridge has not fully integrated into the Spurs system, but his individual ability is still strong.

Against Holmes' defence, Aldridge showed dribbling skills that didn't match his height.

With his back to Holmes, he hit it continuously, pushed near the box, and then suddenly turned around and made a jumper.

When Holmes reacted and jumped up to block, the ball's already crossed fingers flew to the basket.

The crisp sound of wiping the net made the center arena suddenly resound with a burst of cheers.

Watching Aldridge's singles succeed, Brown shouted at the players on the court, "Holmes put pressure on the opponent, don't let the opponent score on your head easily." Grant: Didn't you listen to the tactical arrangement before the game, after Aldridge got the ball, you have to help the defense more, do you understand? ”

According to the newly created defensive system, Aldridge gets the ball, and Grant has to be the first to be with Holmes.

But the new defensive system has just been built, and Grant is not familiar with it at all, and he has been slow to react to the package this time.

Hearing the head coach's roar, Grant was a little unhappy and a little helpless, and ran to the front court with his head down.

When Zhang Zifeng ran to the front court, he passed by Grant, Zhang Zifeng patted his ass and said, "Don't care, wait and see my gestures, let the other party see our strength!" ”

Grant heard and looked up at the Spurs halftime and nodded. "Hmm!"

yelled at the coach, although it was his own mistake, but after all, he was unhappy, and Grant also wanted to pay tribute to the other party very much.

When he received the ball in the front court, Zhang Zifeng clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it high.

Grant knew immediately what this tactic was, and he was a little excited and ran to the bottom corner to wait.

Zhang Zifeng glanced at Green, and Green's attention was completely focused on the ball in his hand.

"Noll, cover!" Zhang Zifeng shouted at Noor, and Noel hurriedly came out to block and dismantle.

Zhang Zifeng threw off Green and rushed into the interior with the help of cover, and Duncan hurriedly made up for it.

Stuck with Duncan and pushed to the penalty area, Zhang Zifeng suddenly jumped up and threw the ball directly into the air.

Zhang Zifeng's throw was completely out of the Spurs players.

It's impossible to score!

Just when the Spurs players were puzzled, Grant, who had been staying in the bottom corner, suddenly rushed to the penalty area, jumped up, received the ball, and dunked with one hand.

A perfect aerial relay dunk!

Grant tugged at the basket so hard that the whole hoop squeaked and shook violently.

After landing, Grant yelled excitedly, and high-fived Zhang Zifeng as he ran back.

"Well done,"

"It's you who passed it well!"

Switching between offense and defense, Knoll and Duncan fiercely fought for the card position in the penalty area.

Aldridge received the ball again on the inside, and this time Grant ran to Holmes as soon as he could.

Aldridge quickly passed the ball back into Parker's hands, and Parker made a cross to Anderson in the open space.

At this time, Zhang Zifeng hurriedly helped Grant make up the defense, and Anderson passed the ball to Green.

McConnell made up the defense, Anderson pretended to pass to Parker, and Noll wanted to save the first time.

As a result, as soon as he took a step with his foot, Anderson passed the ball to Duncan on the inside.

Taking advantage of the 76ers' defensive chaos, Duncan easily sent the ball to the basket with an easy layup.

It seems that it is really not easy to build a defensive system with timely rotation like the Spurs.

Zhang Zifeng clapped his hands and shouted to his teammates, "Don't care, guys. Next time we will definitely succeed in defending, keep up the good work! go! go! We're on and will grab the points back! ”

"Rookie, don't expect to be able to succeed like just now!" Green shouted at Zhang Zifeng.

"Oh, so you're staring at me! Poor ass worm, keep an eye on it! Otherwise, watch out for "bobo" Vicky barking at you! Zhang Zifeng didn't want to fight back.

Since coming to the NBA, Zhang Zifeng feels that his trash talk level has improved.

You don't need to babble anymore to make your opponent listen to it unpleasantly.

It's like Green in front of him is looking at him with an angry face.

Zhang Zifeng doesn't care!

ran to the frontcourt, and the person who defended Zhang Zifeng was still Green.

However, this time Green did not give Zhang Zifeng any more space, and directly stuck it on Zhang Zifeng's body, almost face to face with Zhang Zifeng.

As Zhang Zifeng said, he didn't want to be scolded by the coach for his mistakes.

You must know that "Bobo" Vic has always had a bad temper, and there is still Jonathan Simmons on the bench who wants to replace him as a starter.

Green couldn't allow himself to make mistakes.

Zhang Zifeng used his back to get Green stuck behind him, and stretched out his right hand to catch McConnell's pass steadily.

With the ball in both hands in front of his chest, his back directly against Green.

After exerting force, he slammed his back into it, feeling Green's strength and physical confrontation ability.

With a bang, Green stepped back slightly.

I can't imagine that the body doesn't look strong, but the body is very confrontational.

Zhang Zifeng knew that he couldn't push into the inside line if he wanted to rely on strength, so he turned to face Green.

The hands holding the ball suddenly flicked to the right, the right foot lifted off the ground, and the whole body leaned to the right, as if to break to the right.

But the lifted right foot kicked the floor hard, and then this rebound, Zhang Zifeng's body suddenly turned to the left.

At the same time, the ball lands on the ground and breaks through from the left with a rapid dribble.

"Don't think you've thought of me because of that!" Green was not fooled and hurriedly slid sideways to the left.

A smile flashed at the corner of Zhang Zifeng's mouth, and just after he wanted to take a step to the left, the ball dribbling in his left hand was suddenly pulled back to his right hand, and a cross dribble turned the green who lost his center of gravity and entered the inside line.

Green's defense was a complete failure.

At this time, Aldridge pounced from the side, and Zhang Zifeng saw that before Aldridge arrived, he made a quick stop jump shot.

The ball landed steadily into the basket with a beautiful glide, sending waves through the waves.

4:4, deuced!
