Chapter XXXVIII

Horn came up and was hit by Jefferson in the low post!

Marv Albert immediately said: "Horn's low-post defensive ability is really not good, although the media has criticized him a little excessively, but Horn's low-post defensive ability will definitely be targeted in the playoffs." ”

Reggie Miller also said: "Horn wants to improve, he needs to work on it! ”

Al Jefferson was also a lot more relieved to get a 2+1 on Horn's head, and hit a solid free throw from the free throw line.

Ball watched Horn be a little weak in the low post defense, and also blinked silently.

The Hornets are currently too far behind in the score, and their mentality has also changed, and Paul is also a little anxious to get the ball, very eager to attack by himself, and comes up and throws a three-pointer directly. As a result, he missed the three-point shot.

Even Paul is starting to get anxious, which shows how bad the Hornets are at the moment.

At this time, the Jazz arrived at the Hornets' half, and the Jazz actually opened up the space directly for Jefferson to one-on-one with Horne in the low post.

Seeing this posture, Marv Albert immediately said: "It's not yet the playoffs, and the Jazz are starting to target Horn's weaknesses, and if this continues, the Hornets will inevitably lose today." They don't stand a chance! ”

Reggie Miller also said at this time: 'Even though Horn is working hard defensively, Horn really can't defend the low post, which is terrible!' ”

Horn stuck to Jefferson's body, trying to stop Jefferson, but Jefferson's path was too treacherous, dribbling two steps, he suddenly turned around and made a feint, Horn moved over, Jefferson immediately turned over and came back to another middle distance.

"Brush!"

It's in again! When the opponent has a low attacker, Horn is indeed a big loss.

ESPN commentator John Joan, who has been hacking Horn since seeing this scene, immediately took to Twitter and intercepted a video of Horn being singled twice in a row. Then commented later: "As a defensive player, Horn's low-post defensive ability is simply not up to par!" ”

Many netizens who watched the game also thought that Horn's low-post defense was really bad.

Reggie Miller and Marv Albert are also shaking their heads together, and Horn is really in trouble at the moment.

The Hornets came over again, and Horne hurriedly came out to ask for the ball! Paul still has a lot of trust in Horn because Horn has been very efficient in these games, and he has found a good opportunity to pass the basketball to Horn's hands.

Horn was on the offensive with the ball and immediately spotted the Jazz putting up a tight defense against him.

Kirilenko was on his right, and behind him Jefferson was sideways to himself ready to pounce on him.

The significance of this defense is that Kirilenko does not allow himself to make a smooth spying step jumper, and forces himself to break through to Jefferson, blocking his own shot while stopping his own breakthrough.

Sloan Sr. is also a master defender! If this situation had been before, Horn would have had nothing to do, but now!

At this time, Horn took a decisive step to the left dribble, got rid of Kirilenko slightly, and then raised his hands high, jumped lightly, and with the power of his palm, the basketball flew from Kirilenko's head to the Jazz's basket.

"Oh!"

"Dribble a small jumper?" Seeing this hand, old Sloane was immediately surprised. Before the game, he had studied Horn, and in order to curb the X-factor like Horn, he deliberately arranged such a defense, but he didn't expect Horn to actually come up with this offensive weapon of dribbling jumper.

This offensive technique is almost a must-have for small people, but players who can use this movement over 2.10 meters are no more than one hand in the entire league. And the players who can do this action are all star-level. Now Horn used it all at once, though not very immediately, and old Sloane's heart moved. This guy is bound to be amazing in the future!

Mav Albert and Reggie Miller are both well-informed figures, and they also exclaimed together when they saw Horn make such a small jumper.

"Fake!" The two of them exclaimed together, and they both understood the meaning of a big man over 2.10 meters who would use this action.

The combination of the three techniques, such as the spying step jumper, the breakaway, and the dribble small jumper, completes the entire frame offensive system.

In this way, when Horn is in the face frame, there is basically no dead end.

Reggie Miller couldn't help but say at this time: "Horn's current progress is almost visible to the naked eye, and it's only been a few days that Horn has actually learned to dribble and jump shots, which is amazing!" Something changed today's game? “

Marv Albert was at odds with Reggie Miller at this point, he said; "I'll admit that Horn's offensive progress has been amazing, not only mastering the probing step jumper in such a short period of time, but now he's even learning how to dribble and step jumper! But even so, it doesn't help defense, on the defensive end he will still be attacked by the opponent wantonly under the basket, and the lethality of the jump shot is not at all as strong as the basket! ”

When Reggie Miller and Albert had a disagreement, the Jazz came back to the side. This time, Horn learned to be obedient, he no longer honestly played one-on-one with Al Jefferson, but preemptively went around the front defense first, and did not let Jefferson receive the ball comfortably.

Horn suffered a single defense in the low post, but became a mobile front defense, and Horn suddenly had an advantage.

Jefferson desperately wanted to get the ball, but Horn was too fast and kept interfering in front of him. Williams also hesitated to pass the ball in the back, and this time the basketball did not pass in at all, and in the end, the Jazz did not shoot from the outside.

Horn couldn't defend in the low post, and immediately avoided exposing this shortcoming by going around the front.

The Hornets finally defended successfully for a round, and Horne used his front defense to make a contribution, and on the offensive end, Paul and Horne made a block in the high post, and then turned back and dismantled the basketball into Horn's hands.

Horn got the ball, and the Jazz's defense remained the same, at which point Horn immediately repeated his old trick and dribbled to the side, and it was another small jumper.

"Brush!"

Horn's shot went in again.

At this moment, Sloane's brow furrowed, and Reggie Miller, Mav Albert, and his heart moved at the same time.

Sloan Sr. sensed that Horne had become a problem, and if the trouble was not resolved, the Hornets could catch up quickly. Reggie Miller and Albert felt the huge scoring tension surging from Horn at this time.

This tension is something that only superstars have, and now it's in such a league veteran, a role player.
