Chapter 259: The Battle of Tianwang Mountain 2

The battle of Tianwang Mountain is definitely a key game for the Knicks, and it is also a key game for Liang Xiao, the Knicks need to go further, Liang Xiao needs to go further, and Van Gundy also needs to go further.

The fourth game, the first quarter, there are only two minutes left, the Nets are definitely not a team that can admit defeat casually, not to mention that the current Nets are in full swing, all the players are working hard to win a good ranking, and it is more likely to be the championship, so when the Knicks stand in front of him, the price he has to bear must be very large, in his previous life, Kidd's years in the Nets were glorious moments, but then they began to go downhill, and finally collapsed in the finals. It is hard to fight,

Van Gundy will not give such an opportunity to others, there are too many lessons from the past, the previous Black Eight Miracle is still vivid, Van Gundy does not want to leave a glorious page in his coaching career under a good situation, maybe in his previous life, Van Gundy is because he fell on the playoffs again and again, but it is a little cold, and he has to change his career to be a host,

Decisively called a short timeout, Van Gundy thought that it would be better to be able to rely on the two height advantages on the inside to stabilize the score, or even to get a little advantage, but no, if it doesn't work, you have to change the strategy.

Twenty seconds later, Liang Xiao played against Kidd, Anderson became a point guard, the madman was still in the small front position, Thomas and Harrington combined the inside, the Nets may have seen the Knicks' timeout, and also replaced the main force, so that it is a victory to keep not falling behind in the last little time,

There are not many opportunities to play against Kidd, but it is delusional to get any cheap on Kidd, at least the other party is a veteran on the court for many years, and the strength is definitely top, after Van Gundy made such a rotation, Liang Xiao secretly put three words in his heart to deal with Kidd, these three words are winding, running, passing,

To entangle Kidd, as the name suggests, you have to play your own stalking skills, Kidd's passing ability is very good, in the league may be comparable to Nash, but it is impossible to block Kidd's pass, you can only rely on your own grappling to reduce passing opportunities or increase its mistakes, if the Nets do not have Kidd's participation, it is difficult for the team to operate, it can be said that the Nets are more around Kidd,

Run, Liang Xiao's current age is at least less stagnant than Kidd, although the 29-year-old Kidd is still at the peak of his state, but he is still inferior to Liang Xiao in terms of physical fitness, and if he wants to open up the advantage with Kidd, he must keep running, and only by being a Xiaoqiang who can't run can he defeat Kidd,

As a point guard, in fact, passing is the key and the necessary skill to master the timing, when Kidd defends, Liang Xiao not only has to run, as a point guard, what he has to do now is to continue to create opportunities for his teammates, only when the opportunity comes out, the Knicks are not afraid of the strength of the opponent,

Outside the three-point line in the front court, Liang Xiao has long hair, the color of perseverance on his angular face is strong, and Kidd on the opposite side is bare-haired, as if reflecting the light above his head, and the cautious look on his round face is revealed, Liang Xiao is not a person who underestimates the enemy, and Kidd is not either, Liang Xiao still knows what the opponent's level is in his previous life, and Kidd is a habit that he has developed for many years, and he must be cautious about his opponent every time, and if he is not careful, he may capsize in the gutter.

After Liang Xiao arranged the offensive tactics, Kidd on the opposite side was like a big lock locking his offensive line, Liang Xiao didn't dribble too much, after passing out, the rest of the Knicks didn't have a chance to organize the offense, and finally Liang Xiao continued to play the running trick, when the ball finally returned to his hands, Liang Xiao tried to adjust his breathing, but although Kidd on the opposite side was also trying to adjust, he still had a resentment on his cautious face,

"I didn't expect this guy to really choose tactics, and he couldn't let this guy run all the time." Kidd hadn't adjusted his breathing evenly, so Liang Xiao moved first,

Seeing that Harrington pulled out the outside line on the inside line, Liang Xiao knew that when he was about to get the ball, he slid on the left side, and then dribbled the ball under the crotch to recover, Kidd only moved a small step, it seems that Liang Xiao's actions did not deceive him, and immediately after coming back, Liang Xiao slid out again, and then received a turn on the right side.

After seeing this action, Kidd had actually judged that Liang Xiao would walk from the left, thinking that it would be left and right, and then running on the left side, but he didn't expect that Liang Xiao's idea was not to pass people, but to pass the ball in his hand to his teammates.

After Liang Xiao turned around, Kidd was blocked by Liang Xiao, and at this time, the ball in Liang Xiao's hand flew out and gave it to Harrington who pulled it out, Uncle Mu opposite Harrington didn't keep up, and when he saw his shot, he could only watch the ball fly to the basket, expecting not to score, but the basketball still brought the net to make a crisp sound,

Harrington and Liang Xiao in the run back high-fived, both smiled in return, Liang Xiao slowly returned the defense to prevent Kidd from a quick attack,

Seeing Liang Xiao waiting in the backcourt, Kidd didn't rush to the frontcourt, slowly dribbling and communicating with his teammates.

"After the Knicks are on the court now, the score advantage can be stabilized for the time being, but I hope to play now in the next game." The commentator was a little worried about the Knicks' later game,

"I think the Knicks don't have to worry at all, look at the end of the first quarter of the game, the Knicks' main playing time is less than the Nets, and the efficiency is higher, and in the later games, the Nets don't have much physical fitness, the Knicks' bench is not weaker than the Nets at all, and now the Knicks have a home court advantage and a big score advantage, I think these points will make the Nets have the idea of quick success, and it is difficult to ensure that there will be no panic." For the Knicks, another commentator has a reasonable analysis that the Knicks want to win this game,

Van Gundy kept drawing tactical ideas off the court, Liang Xiao and his teammates looked at the tactical board carefully, listening to Van Gundy talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the first quarter, on the other hand, the head coach of the Nets was a little impatient, and the players were required to implement every detail in the tactics, but the players' independent thinking was missing.

After the second quarter of the Nets changed the style of the first quarter, they gave the Knicks a defensive lesson, and the range of defense went to one step outside the three-point line, which made the Knicks love and hate, this kind of defense is definitely good for the Knicks' interior line, can have more balls to the inside, and the chance of shooting will be great, which is good for the Knicks' Van Horne and Harrington, but it will be difficult on the outside of the Knicks, and the strength of the outside line occupies an important position in the Knicks, The scoring and breakthrough ability of the outside line determine the victory or defeat of the Knicks.

After a change in rhythm, the Knicks were a little overwhelmed, and immediately called a timeout after three minutes, and after adjustment, the Knicks gradually gained a foothold, but at this time, the Nets have changed to rely on internal support, and the way of passing inside and outside, after all, a wide range of defense for the Nets can not last too long, and the physical strength and strength do not have such an advantage, once any point is blown up, it is the rhythm of collapse,

After Liang Xiao left Kittels behind, he immediately received an outside pass from the inside, and hit a three-point shot steadily, the running word trick is not only against Kidd, Kittels is also applicable, and now Liang Xiao has become a mobile turret after the Nets implemented a wide range of defense in the second quarter, rarely attacking with the ball, and relying on running to find opportunities, which also makes the Nets' physical fitness extremely reduced,

When the second quarter was about to end, Liang Xiao went to rest, but Kidd and Kittels of the Nets had already had to rest, because Liang Xiao was constantly playing hide and seek with these two people, and the Knicks did rely on Marbury and the madmen to keep catching up with the score.

With 3.1 seconds left in the half, Liang Xiao saw Marbury just over the halfway line after receiving the ball, a super long-distance horseback archery, and the ball knocked the rebound into the net, which suddenly exploded the atmosphere in the Knicks arena, and the Knicks entered the second half with a 12-point advantage.

All the Knicks players in the locker room chatted relaxedly, Liang Xiao's muscles were a little stiff due to running too much, and the physiotherapist was constantly relaxing his muscles, Van Gundy also enjoyed the current atmosphere very much when he entered the locker room, and couldn't help but joke with the players.

Liang Xiao lay on the long sofa lying on the bed, thinking about the next game, after all, now the Knicks are ahead, but there is no guarantee of victory, now the Nets are like a trapped beast, if you don't kill him now, the power of the outbreak is huge, although this is only the battle of Tianwang Mountain, but the battle for the match point is to determine the mentality of the next game, although the next game is transferred to the Nets, but from the second game of the series, the psychology of the Nets has changed, and they slowly no longer believe in their own strength, but, The Nets still have people with clear minds,

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Liang Xiao, who was fascinated, heard Marbury beside him and asked with a smile,

Marbury is actually a guy with basketball IQ but not very emotional intelligence, otherwise in his previous life, the fans were unpopular, and finally had to leave the NBA.

"I'm thinking about the Knicks' game in the second half, after all, the Nets won't let us do it so easily."

Liang Xiao said a word, Marbury immediately frowned, after all, Liang Xiao is not the only one who has this feeling,

"The trapped beast is still fighting, but, Liang, you must know that we are not the kind of people who are soft-handed, and in the face of opponents, we are always sure to hit with one blow, right?" Marbury smiled at Liang and said,

Liang Xiao looked at Marbury, making the latter two laugh, "That's it, the trapped beast can't escape from our palms." ”
