Chapter 32 Playing Alone is Difficult
In order to make up for his mistakes on the offensive end, Horne moved around more ferociously on the defensive end, and the other players on the Hornets team were invisibly more fierce in defense.
The Knicks are not afraid of the opponent's attack, they are afraid that the opponent's defense is hard, the Knicks themselves do not have much discipline in attack, and it is very difficult to encounter a tough defense, and finally Gallinelli forced to break through Peja, Peja can't be prevented, but Horn quickly killed a tight defense from one side.
Gallinelli made a beautiful layup in the first quarter, and this time he wanted to pull the lever, Horn went up and interfered desperately, but Gallinelli didn't score! Not everyone will score, and if Gallinelli can eat the high difficulty ball, he will already be a superstar.
Grabbing the rebound, Horne turned his head and passed the ball to Thorton, and the Hornets pushed back.
Barkley looked at Horn's defensive performance at this time and said: "Horn is still very competent as a defensive player. I don't understand why he's obsessed with shooting, maybe it's better for him and the team to focus more on defense! I'm still optimistic about him as a full-time defender. ”
Because the Hornets didn't change their tactics, they played or everyone pulled to the right, conceded the left to Horn, and then Thorton passed the ball to Horn.
Still facing Turyaf, Horn threatened to hold the ball three times, and this time he was not in a hurry. Patiently probing steps, shooting, and probing steps, a few feints in a row, seeing Turyaf's footsteps deflected to the right, Horn immediately dribbled to the left, and this step passed Turyaf.
Seeing that Horn finally played a successful single, Horn was also a little anxious, and the movements in his hands were slightly deformed.
The catch didn't catch the ball, Horn buttered his hand, and the basketball flew out.
Such a good opportunity, all the people have passed, and Horn actually returned the butter hand!
This time Horn made a low-level mistake, which immediately made Ball feel the urge to curse, and he roared angrily to get the team to change tactics.
Barkley also said loudly at this time: "I said let him defend full-time?" ”
Madison Garden was also booed, Horn's low-level mistake is indeed very ugly, ordinary people may be extremely annoyed when they encounter this situation, and their emotions are out of control, but at this time Horn did not, he quickly pounced on his defender after the mistake.
The Knicks picked up Fields under the basket and turned to pass the ball to Gallinelli, Fields was careless with the ball, he saw Horn's mistake and thought he could pass the ball at will, but he didn't see Horn very close to the ball.
As soon as Horn saw that the other party actually passed this kind of ball, he flew over and clicked the ball first, and then Gallinelli hurried over to grab it, but Horn was not much slower than him than speed, and his hands and feet were much longer than him, and he grabbed the basketball directly.
"Oh! Horn steals! ”
Chris Webb let out a loud yell, interrupting Barkley's rhythm and causing Ball to stop his rage.
Horn, who steals the basketball, takes a step towards the Knicks' basket, and then raises his hand quickly, so that the two defenders under the Knicks' basket, Randolph and Fields, fly together, and in an instant, Horn stepped up and smashed into the Knicks' basket with a split.
"Bang dang!"
Horn made his own mistake and remedied it himself.
Ball swallowed and foamed, and he began to hesitate again whether or not to singled Horn.
Barkley just said that Horn can't do it, and Horn dunked! In order to remedy his statement, he could only say: "Although this ball Horn has scored!" But it's not a singles score, it's a steal after a tackle, and I still don't think Horn is suitable for singles. ”
Barkley didn't admit it, and Kenny Smith also came to help at this time and said: "I also think Horn is not suitable for singles, he has wasted two singles opportunities in a row. If he is a strict coach, he has been scratched by the same sign as not being able to attack! ”
Horn scored, Barkley and Smith were still chirping, and fans and commentators were still questioning Horn more.
However, at this time, Horn suddenly built up confidence through such a ball, and it also made Horn finally feel like attacking.
Back on the defensive end, the Knicks finally seized an opportunity, and Fields cut to the baseline to catch the ball and make a quick shot to score two points.
Although Horn can put a lot of pressure on the Knicks' defense, it is impossible to defend it completely every round.
The difference between the two teams at 31.36 was still 5 points, and the Hornets hit the ball and still hit Horn's hand.
The previous two rounds of Horn's singles were not considered successful, so this Dantony didn't bother to change his defensive strategy.
Turyaf defended for two rounds, but he also felt that there was no pressure, either an undeterrent breakthrough, or his own mistakes, at this moment Turyaf was a little underestimated Horn, and when he came over, the defense was not as serious as at the beginning.
A slight change of mood on the pitch, a lax attitude, can lead to absolutely different results.
Horn easily felt the opponent's slackness with the ball, Horn is not a soft-hearted person, once Turyav relaxed, Horn immediately raised his hand and shot directly for a jumper.
"Brush!"
Horn's shot was accurate!
Horn's singles three times finally succeeded after once! Bauer calmed down for a moment.
Barkley also said at this time: "Horn finally hit the shot!" ”
At 38:31, the Hornets led the Knicks by 7 points, the game continued, the Knicks still played free offense, Tony Douglas couldn't shoot outside the third line, and naturally dribbled to three points to make a pull-up jump shot.
"Brush!"
Under Dantony's system, the players really had a bonus, and Tony Douglas also hit the ball.
Since Horne singled, the Hornets have not taken much advantage, and they are still only 5 points ahead.
During this period, Horn still made mistakes, and the attack missed, the efficiency was not high, but there were disadvantages and advantages, after clarifying Horne as the core, the Hornets' style of play began to have a simple system, and the team would not be chaotic with the system.
Ball was also vaguely aware that the team had stabilized a lot, and he did not stop Horn from playing as the core.
When it came to the Knicks half, Horn received the ball, turned around, and faced Turiaf, who suddenly found that he didn't have to play so complicated, and Turiaf was much shorter than himself. Faced with this situation, Horn directly raised his arm and hit again with a small mid-range shot before Turiaf could react.
After the first two failed singles, and now immediately hitting two in a row, Horn finally found his offensive touch, which also made Turyaf and the Knicks nervous. Because from experience, once Horn starts to hit, he will be like eating Xuanmai and can't stop at all.
