After Chen scored three points for the Dallas Mavericks, the Pacers attacked.

Although Paul George felt the pressure on the defensive end, he was unequivocal on the offensive end, with the help of Myles Turner's cover, cut into the box with the ball, faced Bogut's defense, and calmly hit a small hook.

The Mavericks are on the offensive again.

In the preseason, Chen Zhi can make more than 40 crazy shots without fear at the request of the team, but in the regular season, he will not do this unless he has to, even if his efficiency can be maintained at a high level even with a large number of shots.

The NBA has four quarters in a game, 12 minutes per quarter, a total of 48 minutes, and the team's total number of shots is usually around 80 to 100, depending on how fast or slow the team's offensive rhythm is, the Dallas Mavericks and other slow-paced teams usually have more than 80 shots.

Chen Zhi made more than 40 shots alone, which means that he occupies half of the team's shooting rights, and the remaining 11 people in the team's roster will share the remaining 40 shots, which is obviously stretched.

What's more, many times in the NBA arena rely on offense to drive defense, if there is no offensive opportunity on the court, it is difficult for players to get excited and integrate into the game, and it is difficult to maintain a high degree of concentration on the defensive end, so it is naturally impossible to talk about defensive efficiency.

After summarizing the first offense for the Mavericks, Chen Zhi prioritized passing, as a point guard player, it is more important to distribute the ball so that the players can integrate into the offense and defense, although the NBA is becoming more and more popular offensive point guards, but for teams that are not good enough to pass the ball, the offensive point guard is likely to be a tumor-like existence, brushing down the data, and not winning the game.

Chen Zhi held the ball over half court and immediately gestured, the Mavericks players quickly settled into position, NBA offensive tactics are to prepare for positional warfare, fast attack counterattack naturally does not need any tactics, most of the players are improvised.

After the Pacers players scored, the return defense was naturally very fast, and the Mavericks, a team with many veterans, could not counterattack quickly.

Seeing Chen's gesture, Nowitzki and Bogut immediately went to the left elbow area to prepare, and the two were not far apart, but two steps away, Barnes and Matthews were in the right corner and flank.

This is also a common tactic used by the Dallas Mavericks, a high-post double block.

Blocking and dismantling can be said to be a kind of cover, and the same as covering, it can create space for teammates to shoot, or misplaced offensive opportunities, the difference is that in blocking and dismantling, after the cover part of the work is completed, there is also the work of "dismantling" to be done. The player responsible for the cover in the pick-and-roll cannot simply stand in place after the cover, but must move, either dismantle inward to attack the basket, or dismantle the outside to open up the space and prepare to shoot.

The tactical characteristics of the double block and dismantle are that there are both outside and inside after the block, and a big center like Bogut who can only score under the basket can naturally only be dismantled to the basket, while Nowitzki, who has excellent three-point ability, has two options after blocking and dismantling, which makes it difficult for defenders to make judgments.

Chen Zhi moved from Nowitzki and Bogut with the ball, Paul George deserved to be a defensive guard who could enter the league's defensive lineup, Nowitzki's cover was calmly grabbed by him, but Bogut's cover still blocked him.

There are only three ways to deal with blocking and dismantling, directly change the defense, wrap the ball carrier, and then the player responsible for defending the opponent's cover player first comes out to delay the ball carrier, give his teammates time to rearrange the defense, and then quickly return to defend their opposing players.

Myle Turner did not hesitate to follow the pre-game strategy and chose to save to defend Chen Zhi, Chen Zhi's three-point deterrent was too strong, and the Pacers did not dare to give the slightest space. After adjusting his body, Paul George immediately rushed to Chen again and tried to wrap up with Turner.

Bogut, who was let go by Myles Turner, rushed to the basket without hesitation, and the Pacers defended Barnes' Teague and Thaddeus Young, who was originally defending Norsky King in the bottom corner of the other side, and immediately shrank the basket to protect the basket.

It's a pity that Chen Zhi, who is in the middle of the two, although the tall Pacers center Myell Turner is standing in front of him, still has a way to send the ball to Bogut, and it is very neat, and before Thaddeus Young and Jeff Teague arrive, they have completed the dunk!

"Oh! Good ball, Chen to a beautiful crotch pass! Bogut catches and dunks! In the TNT studio, Kenny Smith couldn't help but shout when he saw the wonderful offensive coordination of the Dallas Mavericks.

Big shark O'Neal watched the replay and couldn't help but exclaim: "I think only from the replay can we see how subtle this pass is, Chen Zhi glanced at Barnes with a gap in the bottom right corner, Myles Turner immediately took a step with his left foot in that direction, and reached out to try to interfere with the passing route, and there was immediately enough passing space between his legs." ”

"Chen Zhi's passing is really elusive, I think you must have seen his passing in the previous game, it is completely a master-level passing technique, this time the crotch pass, it should be designed by Chen Zhi, the characteristics of his passing are in addition to liking the back pass, that is, there will always be various feints when passing, Myles Turner is obviously under his intentional guidance!" Barkley couldn't help but say when he heard this.

"It looks like how to defend this rookie is going to be a headache for the league's coaches, not only does he have extremely accurate shooting, but he also has exquisite passing, which is really hard to guard, and I see the shadow of two-time MVP winner Steve Nash in him!"

Pacers head coach McMillan carefully observed the situation on the court on the sidelines, the ball just now, the Pacers' defense is actually relatively in place, Chen Zhi who is in the middle of the bag is not easy to share the ball under the basket, if it is replaced by someone else, I am afraid that he will share the ball to Nowitzki and Barnes who have three-point opportunities.

However, on these two routes, there are George who is rushing over to wrap up and Monta Aires who is standing on the passing route, even if Chen can pass over, the high hanging pass speed is obviously not fast enough, and the Pacers still have room to change the defense, so the Pacers' defense of the block this time is successful. Taking a step back, even if the opponent successfully catches the ball and makes a three-point shot, it is still a question whether he can hit it.

But this Chen Zhi stubbornly opened the situation with a straightforward crotch pass, which slowed down the time for Thaddeus Young to rush to the basket, and failed to form an effective defense against Bogut, otherwise Bogut would not have dunked so easily.

The strategy of the ball-handler in the pick-and-roll didn't seem to have much effect on Chen, but McMillan pondered it and didn't call a timeout to change the defensive tactics. At least in this defense, the Pacers did let Chen pass the ball, and the defensive principle of forcing Chen to pass the ball will not change because of a crotch pass.

Sure enough, in the next game, this defensive principle seemed to work, and the opposing point guard frequently passed the ball in his hand, and the score of Dallas and Indiana was roughly equal.

Coach McMillan stood on the sidelines and watched for a long time, very pleased with the defensive effect, and he found himself a little intimidated by the guy's 81 points in the preseason, and the three-man package looked completely unnecessary.

Because although this guy has scored 81 points like Kobe, the offense is far worse than Kobe, and Kobe still has the confidence to end the game under the three-person package!

Thinking of this, Coach McMillan slowly paced back to the bench with his head down, turned around and prepared to sit in the coach's box, but just turned around and heard the referee's whistle on the field, and at the same time the audience let out an exclamation.

Coach McMillan fixed his eyes on the fact that it was Myles Turner who was being whistled, and the Pacers player was raising his hand to signal that he had committed a foul.

Looking at the referee who blew the whistle just now, he was actually making a two-point gesture! Coach McMillan immediately glanced at the scorer and saw that the Dallas Mavericks had added two points to tie the score.

shxt！ What happened! Didn't the Pacers just serve and attack?

Coach McMillan, who had just sat down, immediately stood up again and looked up at the replay on the big screen above the stadium.

Myles Turner served, Jeff Teague received the ball and moved forward, and met the opponent's point guard Chen Zhi stepped forward to grab, Jeff Teague did not protect the ball cautiously in this situation, but made a back dribble, but as soon as he made contact with Chen Zhi's body, Teague's body immediately stumbled, and the control of the ball suddenly messed up the rhythm, and as soon as he held the ball with both hands, he was snatched directly from his hands by the opponent, and rushed to the basket to dunk the basket.

Myles Turner, who had just walked to the basket from the bottom line, saw that the opponent had jumped up, and it was too late to block, so he could only foul, but the opponent who was hugged by him in the air still lost his center of gravity and hit the ball with the basket, and was blown 2+1 by the referee!

This Jeff Teague! Macmillan's dark, chubby face immediately showed a hint of displeasure.

He is really a little dissatisfied with the summer recruit Jeff Teague, although the data and functions of George Hill, who went to the Jazz in a three-way trade with the Jazz and Hawks, are much more stable than Jeff Teague, and the turnover rate is much lower.

Comparatively speaking, he prefers that George Hill will still be on the team this year, not Jeff Teague, and the contracts of these two players will expire next year anyway, and the Pacers, a small-ball city team, will not be able to keep either.

When Coach McMillan sneered at Jeff Teague on the sidelines, Chen Zhi had already walked to the free throw line alone to make a free throw.

"Chen's first free throw in the regular season! Isn't this also a historic moment! In the Penguin Sports live broadcast room, Ke Bufan looked at Chen Dao, who was about to make free throws, and teased Yang Yi and Ma Jian, just turned his head to look at the live broadcast screen, and immediately exclaimed, "Oops! Chen to this, in a salute to Nash, before the free throw, both hands slapped their shoes! ”

After the referee's whistle sounded just now, in the process of walking to the free throw line, Chen Zhi had an idea, and there was no doubt that the camera on the court was on him at this moment, so there was the scene that Ke Bufan appeared in the live broadcast!

Steve Nash has retired from the league, and his special habit of pre-free throws has not been inherited, I didn't expect Chen Zhi to suddenly make this move today, he didn't have these moves in the preseason before!

After Chen Zhi steadily scored the ball, the slow motion actually replayed his action of slapping the shoes just now.

Ke Bufan was thinking that Chen Zhi was paying tribute to Nash, the son of the wind, but the old and sophisticated Yang Yi smiled slightly, "I feel that Chen Zhi is a bit like showing off his signature shoes!" ”

Ma Jian is also a good person, as soon as he heard Yang Yi's words, he knew that Yang Yi did not directly say that Chen Zhi was advertising his shoes, and he also smiled, "Well, these shoes are really good, Chen Zhi's first signature shoes, I bought a pair of them and collected them!" ”

Even the commentators can be said to be very popular.

Ke Bufan, the official host, said with a wry smile when he heard this, "Two teachers, we have a shoe sponsor for this show, or a brand endorsed by Tang Shen, so let's not discuss the issue of shoes." ”

Yang Yi seemed to sound this stubble when he heard this, "Oh, don't mention it, don't mention it!" However, Chen Zhi is really a competent spokesperson! ”

At the Bankers Life Arena, the Dallas Mavericks' game against the Pacers was going on in an orderly manner, and the younger, faster Pacers, after three quarters of the game, even had a certain advantage, leading by five points into the fourth quarter.

"After the defensive intensity of the regular season came up, it was really not so easy for Chen Zhi to cut points, and the Pacers really took too much care of a rookie player, frequent double packing!"

In the live broadcast room of Penguin Sports, Ke Bufan, who commented on the three sessions of the game, sighed. He especially hopes to see Chen Zhi score high again, and cut a high score in the regular season, so as to correct the 81 points in the preseason, and show that Chen Zhi is by no means a brush. However, under the special care of the Pacers, Chen Zhi seems to have been passing the ball.

Yang Yi smiled when he heard this, "Bufan! You should take a good look at the stats, Chen has 24 points in his account so far, and he has 13 assists and 5 rebounds! I'm not satisfied with this data in the first three quarters, are your requirements for Chen Zhi a bit high! ”

Ke Bufan heard the words and said, "Is there twenty-four points?" I feel that Chen Zhi didn't shoot much, and he even had this score! ”

"It's not a lot of shots, but it's efficient!" Ma Jian said.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Chen Zhi and Matthews walked onto the court with a cadre of substitutes, and Barnes, who led the bench at the end of the third quarter, wiped his sweat on the bench with a very excited expression on his face, and he finally got rid of the slump that had shrouded him for months. After three quarters of the game, 13 shots have scored 18 points, the efficiency is very good, at the end of this game, it is not surprising that the score should be 20, this kind of performance, it is estimated that the fans who will black themselves into chickens in the preseason will be shocked!

On the court, Chen Zhi took a look at the scorer as he advanced with the ball, and the Dallas Mavericks were five points behind.

Pickled pepper was already standing in front of Chen Zhi to defend, and when he saw this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "How about it, now you know the difference between the preseason and the regular season, rookie!" Chen has scored 24 points so far, and in Pickles' opinion, the Pacers have made a good enough defense.

However, Chen Zhi smiled when he heard this, "It doesn't look like much of a difference!" ”
