After hearing Iguodala's reminder, the Hawks' teammates who were scrambling for rebounds under the basket understood that Arenas' shot was rubbed by him. Al Jefferson blocked Haywood hard, Dior already had a prediction, the basketball will inevitably be shot short when it is resisted, and the Frenchman moved first, grabbing the basketball and throwing it to the front court without even looking at it.

The Hawks' fast break is definitely the most resolute in the league, and the players who grab the rebound pass are super confident in the athletic talent of their teammates, almost as soon as Dio jumps to protect the rebound, Iguodala has already made a fast break, and by the time the Frenchman passes the ball, Iguodala has already stepped into the free throw line with one foot.

However, Arenas was not slow to react, taking advantage of the opportunity for Iguodala to slow down slightly after receiving the pass, he caught up and stuck to the inside to restrict him from making a layup.

Arenas' defense was in place, but Iguodala didn't mean to slow down, and rushed out of the baseline with the general, but before rushing to the baseline, the basketball in his hand was simply smoothed backwards, and he didn't even look at it......

By the time the Wizards reacted, there was the sound of heavy objects colliding on the basket, and the Hawks' fast break had at least two arrows, followed by Josh Smith.

The general's face sank, and he asked for the ball again, dribbled past half court, and faced Iguodala in the second round.

For a player like Arenas, shooting defense is more important than defense breakout, and once he feels the shot, it is all kinds of unreasonable goals, and it will really shoot to death. So Iguodala did not relax the distance between him and the general, and the center of gravity remained at a high position.

Wizards No. 0 began his usual cross-dribbling and seemed to be looking for a breakthrough, and there was only one thing Iguodala could do, stabilize his center of gravity. Arenas' first step wasn't too fast, but it was small and subtle, which made Iguodala feel like a drowning suffocation when he faced him.

The rhythm of the dribble suddenly accelerated, Arenas cut in from the right side, Andre slid sharply to jam the line, the general seemed to want to force it in, the physical confrontation between the two people made the onlookers on the sidelines seem to see the sparks splashing, but Arenas took two strong steps and then suddenly pulled the step back, it was the general's signature emergency stop jump shot.

In the panic, Iguodala did not press forward again, but jumped up with the center of gravity still unstable, and Arenas shot before Iguodala rose to the highest point, the shot point was a little low, and there was a slight backwards, but the accuracy was a little worse, and the ball knocked out of the frame, but the Wizards had already prepared after seeing the speed of the Hawks' fast attack, Larry Hughes had already retreated to Josh Smith's forward line, and the general also intended to block Iguodala's front, and Jamison ran to his own half without looking back……

Jefferson, who held the ball in his arms, had no choice but to throw it to Crawford to steady his pace and pass the half.

The general hit a nose on the offensive end, determined to find it back on the defensive end, Crawford was watched by Larry Hughes 1v1, Iguodala was a swimming fish but couldn't get rid of Arenas who was bent on entanglement with him, Crawford saw no chance, so he had to pass the ball to Al Jefferson who was going to the position inside, Jefferson received the ball and turned and singled Haywood for two consecutive times, and was slapped down by the Wizards' tough guy center with the ball, and the result of the ruthless shot was that Jefferson only made two free throws.

For the third time, Arenas confronted Iguodala.

"If you want to limit an outside star, you first need to figure out three points, his shooting habits, his shooting patterns, and his form curve." This is the first point that Pippen listed when he talked about his defensive experience, "If you look at the human body as a machine, it is also a machine with memory function, so no matter how strong a player's ability is, there will always be a curve of ups and downs, and over time there will be a certain amount of memory retention, when his state curve turns down, it means that his physical fitness, reaction and other aspects of the data are at a trough, all you have to do is to shorten his peak state as much as possible, and extend the trough state as much as possible." ”

Therefore, in the face of Arenas, Iguodala chose to fight for physical consumption at the beginning to suppress the general's throwing, Arenas is the offensive core of the entire Wizards team, only his state will lead the whole team to become terrifying, the Hawks have the most advantage compared to it is that they have a surprisingly many outside defenders, as long as they take turns to successfully drag Arenas's state, there is hope to solve the Washington Wizards.

Before the game, both Thibodeau and Pippen emphasized that for an opponent like Arenas, once he feels it, he will not hesitate to interrupt with a foul, and Uncle Tom will do a good job of personnel rotation.

This time, Arenas dribbled with a sudden diagonal pass, Larry Hughes cut to the baseline without the ball, took advantage of Haywood's block to kill the Hawks' hinterland, and finally scored the Wizards' first shot in the face of Jefferson's block with a high throw.

Atlanta's playoff defense in the first quarter made it extremely difficult for the Washington Wizards, a team that relied on the perimeter, to play extremely hard, but the Hawks were extremely resolute in their fast break, and by the time of the break, the Hawks still led by seven points, but Iguodala picked up two fouls on Arenas.

Although there were still a lot of fouls, both Thibodeau, Jiang Qi and Billy Knight were very satisfied with Iguodala's performance, because he was targeting Arenas in this game, which contrasted with the General's three-point report card in the first quarter.

What's more important is that Iguodala was extremely focused on the pitch today...... While Chiang didn't know what Teresa paid to recruit Pippen, a special assistant coach, there was no doubt that the investment was worth it, and the ring-riddled small forward got Iguodala back on the court.

"Andrey, how are you feeling?" At the beginning of the second quarter, Thibodeau put Iguodala off the court to rest and replaced Matt Barnes to guard Arenas, who continued to stay on the court, and Jiang Qi sat in the back row and asked.

Iguodala wiped the sweat from her head with a towel, "It's great, Scott has made me realize my most important value, and I have found a way to improve myself with hard work!" ”

The rookie director nodded, "People who are engaged in our industry, as long as they can find the direction of their own efforts, will definitely succeed." He paused, "Speaking of which, I've also heard a way to practice shooting in the wild, do you want to hear it?" ”

The first brother was stunned for a moment, and then paused his jaw with a little hesitation, which can be regarded as recognition.

"You also know that the most important thing in shooting is to have a soft hand, so you need to increase the feeling ...... the ball", Jiang Qi's expression looked a little strange, "This method is to keep the ball in your hand for two hours a day to find this soft touch." ”

"Of course, having the ball in your hand is the premise, and there are also a series of ...... to exercise the flexibility of the wrist and finger joints", then Jiang Qi took out a piece of paper from the pocket of his suit and explained the six or seven sets of training movements listed above one by one, "I asked Tom, he thinks this kind of contact should be good for you, if you want to, you can try." ”

Iguodala didn't answer him perfunctorily, but thought about it very carefully, and then nodded, "This training method is indeed very targeted, it seems to be ......"

Jiang Qi knew that this training method was rumored to come from the European basketball system, "This is what a friend of mine once accidentally mentioned, his name is Turegg Cao ......"
