Chapter 331: Rhythm

Before the game, head coach Collins specifically told Lowry that it was very important to suppress DeLong on the point guard end in this series

Target.

After the start of the game, Delon and Lowry went head-to-head, and the confrontation was fierce, showing their own talents.

After Deron entered the Nets, he liberated his scoring talent, but in terms of organization, it was not as good as it was during the Jazz period. A very important reason is that because of the change in the tactical system, DeLong is used to the high efficiency of blocking and dismantling offenses with his teammates in Salt Lake City, and it is difficult to have easy assists in other systems in an instant.

Lowry is also an efficient scorer in the 76ers, and Tang Wenlong is the organizer of the offense.

The audience didn't expect these two to take the lead, and after the first quarter and a half of the game, Delon had 8 points and 1 assist, and Lowry also scored 8 points and no assists on 3-of-4 shooting.

The 76ers led the Nets by two points 16-14 and the clock went into a long timeout.

After a timeout, the 76ers went on offense at halftime.

Lowry stood a little to the right at the top of the three-point arc, and then moved to the right to a position of 45 degrees, Tang Wenlong in the bottom corner of the weak side ran from the baseline, and Iguodala and Gasol Jr. gave double cover under the basket, Hayward was delayed by a position, but he was still able to catch up with Tang Wenlong.

Then West at the fourth position in the left elbow area blocked Lowry, and Iguodala made an off-ball cover for Gasol Jr. under the basket.

Tang Wenlong's running attracted the attention of the Nets, Iguodala's off-ball cover allowed Gasol Jr. to have an open opportunity under the basket, and Lowry handed it to Gasol Jr. with the help of a block.

Gasol Jr. misplaced Joe Johnson, knocked Joe Johnson away with a back-to-back, and then shot with a small hook left hand.

Easy hits! 18 to 14.

"Good shot!" Tang Wenlong secretly praised in his heart, Lowry's passing is unpretentious, and he does a very good job in advance, his ability to organize and attack has always been underestimated, at least Tang Wenlong thinks that it is not much worse than Delong.

Offense and defense transition, the Nets block and break offense.

Partnering Deron is Lopez, who is huge and has the best quality of cover for the Nets.

With the help of Lopez, Delon easily got the gap to shoot, at this time, he could choose to shoot directly after covering with a single block, but in order to be safer and more efficient, Delon chose to pass.

The ball was passed to Lopez, who dribbled and cut sideways to the basket, and Gasol Jr. was not in a good position, so West stepped forward to fill in the position.

Lopez stopped suddenly, held the ball in both hands and made a shooting feint, used his left foot as the axis, half-turned over, and then switched to his right foot to exert force, leaning back and jumping!

"Be careful!" Lopez was in the air when he suddenly heard Delon's shouting behind him.

"What?" Before Lopez could react, a big yellow hand appeared outside the exposed basketball with both hands raised in the air, and then suddenly pressed it in a flash of time!

A huge force appeared, Lopez couldn't grasp the ball with both hands at all, and the basketball was directly slapped away. In order to balance his huge body, he didn't have time to see who suddenly appeared.

can have such a rate of defense, can have such a terrifying bounce to block, naturally Tang Wenlong as the leader.

The basketball bounced on the ground, Tang Wenlong received the rebounding basketball, pulled the ball naturally with his right hand, lowered his body, and rushed out like a cheetah.

The origin of the fast attack, most of them are such defensive counterattacks!

Tang Wenlong took the lead, sending the ball one step to keep up, the man and the ball were one, and no player around him could get him, including Delong, who was originally the outermost.

Tang Wenlong passed half court, rushed into the three-point line, and then looked back and looked, the Nets gave up retreating.

The audience stood up, "It's coming!" They shouted in their hearts, looking forward to Tang Wenlong's performance alone.

One step, two steps.

He took a deep breath, grabbed the basketball with one hand, strode into the free-throw line with his left foot, and then exploded with power, like a rocket out of gravity, lifting the basketball with long arms, a standard and flowing side-handed tomahawk!

"Bang dang!"

Tang Wenlong glided in the air for a distance and then dunked into the basket, his head was deflected, and the basketball fell and bounced on his chest.

20-14, Lopez raised his arms to signal that he was responsible for the ball.

Delon didn't respond, of course Lopez was to blame for this ball, when Tang Wenlong rushed over, only Lopez didn't see it, there was a ball in front of Lopez that once hit Gasol Jr. with a backward shot, the 76ers changed their tricks reasonably, if you are a little vigilant, if you break up, this ball may directly hit the weakness of the 76ers.

This is also where other players differ from Dellon's philosophy, as a point guard under Sloan's training, Delon has always been responsible for connecting teams, while other NBA players will definitely not be as strong as a point guard in the overall situation.

The Nets attacked, and Deron beckoned Joe Johnson to come out and catch the ball.

Singles Joe singled Iguodala with his back, elbow position, Thaddeus Young silently walked over to cover, Joe Johnson turned to the frame to attack, and after testing a step, he went directly to the baseline with the help of Thaddeus Young's block.

"Supplement!" Iguodala was knocked to the ground full of arms, and Thaddeus Young's small movements directly grabbed him.

Joe Johnson shook irregularly, dribbled comfortably in front of David West and changed direction, then suddenly took a big step back and turned around for a jumper from mid-range, and West jumped up to interfere.

"Huh!" Accurate hits! 20 to 16.

The 76ers attacked, Tang Wenlong cut to receive Lowry's ball, and after entering the hinterland, he passed to Gasol Jr. in the second, and Gasol Jr. pushed Lopez up, and he missed the small hook at close range.

The rebound was grabbed by Lopez, who turned around, and then he took the ball in his arms alertly.

Tang Wenlong, who had sneaked closer, retracted his hand in embarrassment, and laughed dryly twice.

The Nets attacked, and Delon advanced with the ball.

DeLong dribbles under his crotch, his body changes, and he turns to the left, and Lowry's center of gravity shifts to the left. Delon immediately changed his body direction sharply, which was his classic forward body change of direction, the amplitude was very large, plus his height and arm span surpassed Lowry, and he jumped to the right side in an instant, opening up a lot of space.

DeLong saw that there was space to shoot, stepped on his toes outside the three-point line to exert force, and raised his hand to shoot a three-pointer.

Hit! 20 to 19.

Lowry's eyebrows jumped, Delong's offense really didn't say, such a shooting accuracy after dribbling is difficult for the average star to grasp, no head coach will advocate it, but the goals are all good shots.

Collins handed Lowry a gesture, signaling Lowry to take the pillar tactic and let Tang Wenlong go to the low position to attack.

Tang Wenlong also saw the head coach's instructions, and knew it in his heart, looking up, the time had passed the eighth minute, and the inside line was about to rotate, and it was time for him to show some dominance to bring the rhythm. (To be continued.) )
