Seeing Okafor losing the jump ball again on the court, Bickerstaff shook his head, as long as he encounters a center with a better jump, Okafor has a hard chance to win the jump ball. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

On the other side, Jason Collins, the center who has averaged about 5 points and 5 rebounds per game in his career so far, but has always been a starter, can win the jump ball on Okafor's head by bouncing.

Thinking of the bouncing inside, Bickerstaff looked at Milicic on the bench, a roster who was good at bouncing among white players, better than Okafor, a black man.

Okafor has been strong this summer, and the 23-year-old has become much stronger in his muscles and core than he was last year, and his flexibility and ability to get into positions on the inside have become stronger after training with Rodman, but the bounce seems to have gotten worse, probably because of the weight gain.

Starting Milicic and Okafor as a centre-forward?

The idea was appealing to Christstaff, but Gerard Wallace was too good to play off the bench, and Hill was a superstar at the small forward position.

For a moment, Bickerstaff felt a disturbance called happiness.

Last season, I still couldn't make up the crowd, but this year, the front court is full all of a sudden.

After thinking about it for a while, Bickerstaff had a plan and did not consider promoting Milicic to the starting line-up for the time being.

Today's Bobcats are against the Nets, one of the strong contenders for the Eastern Conference playoffs, and although they didn't make the playoffs last season, their core roster is still not to be underestimated.

Against Carter, Ye Han was quite excited about this, and at the beginning of the game, he gave a big hat to Richard Jefferson, who ran into the inside to catch a dunk, and started a tough defense.

Or the Nets, Carter looked at Ye Han with a surprised face, such an active defense?

This is very unscientific in Carter's view of basketball, who would be the core scorer of the team and then go to the beginning of the game and defend desperately like that?

At least he won't, and he remembers that his cousin Maddy, who was once his partner, has thrown his defense aside after becoming the team's scoring core.

Carter has the impression that only Kobe Bryant's pervert will want to destroy the opponent in every game, whether it is offense or defense.

The Nets continue to attack.

Ye Han defended Carter, just at the beginning of the game back to send a big hat, the Nets' offensive routines are notoriously fast, compared to when the Bobcats played fast break, his main defensive task is Carter, the league's top ten scoring guards.

Although Carter has experienced several major injuries, he still averaged fifth in the league in points per game last season, although his physical fitness is not as good as before the injury, but he is still excellent, coupled with the all-round scoring means that people rarely praise, he is an opponent that Ye Han attaches great importance to.

But, unexpectedly, Carter dribbled to the right side and passed to Kidd, helping Kidd block and block Blake, who was closely guarding Kidd!

What the hell? When did Ye Han see such a selfless Carter? actually took the initiative to take on the role of a supporting role and do the blocking and dismantling?

Starting with Carter and Kidd's pick-and-roll, the Nets' offensive tactics began to work collectively, and everyone else ran and stuck in their own positions. The Bobcats, on their side, are also actively rotating and defending and are in a good position.

Carter helped Kidd block and dismantle, not only creating a breakthrough opportunity for Kidd, but he also had an opportunity to cut inside because of Ye Han and Blake's defensive switching.

Ye Han and Blake tacitly let go of Kidd and went to bag Carter.

Sure enough, Kidd's choice was to give the ball to Carter.

Carter caught the ball at the free throw line and jumped instantly, exploding towards the basket.

The Bobcats were ready to defend against Carter, Okafor showed up early outside the reasonable collision zone, raised his hands and jumped in place, blocking in front of Carter, Blake ran over to Carter's bottom three and was ready to pull the ball, as soon as Carter brought the ball below the waist, he was ready to shoot.

Was this bounce injured? People saw that Carter's head was more horizontal than the rebound, and they exclaimed, how much more unscrupulous is this?

Immediately, people couldn't help but shout a word of God, and then Ye Han, who jumped up with Carter, looked directly parallel to the basket!

Ye Han jumped with all his strength, and his head was already over the basket!

Three-way pinch, the New Jersey fans at the scene opened their eyes wide, they had seen the moment when Carter flew directly over the center's head and dunked at the Olympics, and they were looking forward to Carter creating a miracle again.

However, Carter passed, and to everyone's surprise, threw it to Richard Jefferson, who cut in the middle, who dunked with both hands to end the offense.

"Oh......"

The fans were a little disappointed, and thought they would see a dunk against a three-man defense, but they still gave a round of applause, after all, this time the cooperation was very good, and if it wasn't for Carter's pass, it would definitely receive a lot of cheers.

Passed the ball? The Bobcats were just as surprised as the fans.

Ye Han looked at Carter and thought: Is this still the Carter who wants to dunk when someone is in the way? When did you become so selfless?

The Bobcats attacked, Ye Han's side played completely different from Carter, holding the ball was dry.

The Nets were relieved to let Kidd defend against Ye Han.

Kidd's defense is second to none among point guards, and his flexible feet and excellent defensive anticipation keep Ye Han firmly in front of him.

Ye Han wants to use the ball to break through against Kidd, it seems to be very difficult, and Kidd's defense is very experienced in changing direction and breaking through.

However, what Ye Han is more powerful about is his use of his body, and the advantage of receiving the offensive player to take the lead in making a move, knocking away Kidd and forcing it in.

Kidd subconsciously wanted to block Ye Han with his hand, but stopped halfway, and the league's new rules had already made the defenders angry.

After Ye Han burst into the inside, he forced a layup against Collins' defense, and caused the opponent to foul and play 2+1.

Collins and Okafor are far apart, whether it is statistics or role, he does not deserve a starting position, the Nets lost to the Finals for two consecutive years, and lost on the inside.

At the beginning of the game, the Bobcats insisted on the tactical arrangement prepared before the game, strangled Carter and Richard Jefferson on the defensive end, the focus was on pinching Carter, and Kidd couldn't stop anyone if he wanted to pass, so strangling the two main scorers was the best way.

The Nets relied on Carter's selfless style of play, which frustrated the defensive purpose of the Bobcats, and Carter has changed in the past year or so since he came to the Nets, showing a completely different look from the Raptors period.

Although Carter during the Raptors era had more than 3 assists per year, it was based on a high concentration of ball possession and a lot of playing time, and the more than 50 games he played after he came to the Nets last year changed very much, averaging a career-high 4.7 assists per game.

The Nets' defense has collapsed in the past two years, and after losing Kenyon Martin, their interior has become the opponent's backyard, and only Kidd is on the outside, and Richard Jefferson is okay with the others. Carter don't talk about it, the defense has not been very good, in the early years, he could rely on his physical fitness and explosiveness to occasionally cap one, and now after being seriously injured by Bowen's black hand twice, the straight-line acceleration and bounce still have the strength of seven or eight points back then, but the lateral movement and change of direction are basically ruined.

Now Carter's defense is like the road in the early morning.

However, on the offensive end, Carter and Kidd have obviously worked much better this year than last season, Kidd can always send the ball to Carter in an offensive position that Carter is very comfortable with, Carter forced the Bobcats to play a bag in these positions, exposing gaps in other positions, and Carter himself is not like before, he wants to dunk when he sees the basket and sends a lot of exquisite passes.

The Nets' offense was up to the Bobcats in the combination of Kidd and Carter.

In the first quarter, the Bobcats focused on Ye Han's individual offense, and his in-depth and out-of-the-box shots burst through the Nets' clumsy defense like a lone wolf.

At the end of the first quarter, both sides scored efficiently, 33-31, with the Bobcats leading by two points.

The head-to-head battle made the fans addicted, and the live ratings of the game on ABC TV also hit a new high for the two teams.

The happiest is President David Stern, last season the Suns went from a ratings cancer the previous year to a ratings king, which inspired him that offensive teams are always sought after by the audience, so he came up with a new rule of outside protection, forcing most teams to start focusing on offense, making the game a notch more enjoyable.

Of course, there are also teams like the Spurs, which still maintain the tradition of "no more than 100 good teams" and never score more than 100 points per game.

……

In the second quarter, the Bobcats caught the Nets off guard.

Despite the deviation of the Bobcats' defensive strategy, their offense was still effective, Ye Han's strength, and then the Nets just adapted to Ye Han's strength and made changes, the Bobcats suddenly became an overall offense in the second quarter, Hill and Missilić, who rotated on the court, used Ye Han's containment to send beautiful passes to other teammates who had scoring opportunities.

This section of the Bobcat changed to a ridiculously tall lineup, Ye Han, Kapono, Hill, Milicic, Okafor, the average height of the five exceeded two meters and six!

And in addition to Okafor, these people all have mid-to-long-range shots, and they are very good at grabbing rebounds except for Capono.

Nets head coach Lawrence Frank was tricked, the young coach really didn't drip much, took over the team in the summer of '03 that had just reached the Finals for two years in a row, almost didn't take the team to the lottery, and then the following year, last season, the team managed not to make the playoffs.

Frank seemed sluggish to react, and when he made changes to his opponent's attack, he was even quicker to make the next move.

It's the same this time, although Bickerstaff is not very good in tactical design, but it is top in player rotation and bold changes, and it has been seen in several encounters last season that the Nets are really not a good head coach, and he has also figured out the level of the opponent and made changes one step ahead of the opponent.

Ye Han's 22 points in the first quarter alone was terrifying, but what was even more terrifying for the Bobcats was that their role players fired.

Kapono hit 5 three-pointers in the second quarter in a single quarter, Milicic, who worked outside shooting in the summer, also scored 8 points from mid-to-long range, plus Webster Lang, who replaced Hill in the last four minutes before halftime, had a good shooting and scored 7 points in a row, and the three benches combined for 30 points in a single quarter, and the powerful firepower directly blinded the Nets.

The Bobcats also scored 44 points in the second quarter under the leadership of Milicic, 44-27, and the Bobcats opened a 17-point gap in a single quarter, widening the total score difference to 19 points and leading 77-58. (To be continued.) )
