Chapter 176: Auden's Might
Wang Meng and Wallace high-fived and celebrated, although Wallace and Wang Meng did not have much communication, but the cooperation between the two people was very in place, Wallace had a positive surname, and Wang Meng had passing skills.
Switching offense and defense, Conley controlled the ball over half the court, looked at Wang Meng, who was defending him, hesitated, and did not choose to play strongly, but passed the ball to Guy.
Guy didn't stop the ball when he received the ball, but dropped the ball directly into the hands of Gasol Jr., who was in a good position on the inside, in his thoughts, Gasol Jr. played an Oden who was already equivalent to a cripple is not easy and simple?
Gasol Jr. also thinks the same, just now he went to the inside line, and easily stood in position, Oden did not have any interference at all, and many years of not playing have made Oden lose a lot of defensive awareness.
After receiving the ball in position, Gasol Jr. leaned back slightly, and immediately leaned against Oden's chest.
"The location is a bit of a front!" Gasol Jr. instantly felt that there was a problem with Oden's position, and he didn't give Oden a chance to adjust, and directly leaned on Oden to turn around.
Oden was too close to Gasol Jr., and was directly turned around half of his body, and Gasol Jr. took a step forward and was already at the bottom of the basket.
A smile suddenly appeared on Gasol Jr.'s face, and he sent the ball up with one hand, and he was about to use a light layup to take advantage of the attack.
As soon as Gasol Jr.'s hand was raised, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in Gasol Jr.'s afterglow, and the smile on Gasol Jr.'s face instantly stiffened again.
Before Gasol Jr. could think of something, the black shadow let out a loud shout and slammed the basketball in Gasol Jr.'s hand away.
This man was Auden, who had recovered his body.
After landing safely, Auden glanced at Gasol Jr., and saw the surprise in Gasol Jr.'s eyes, Oden seemed to have returned to his college days at this moment, and there was no era in the whole American university that was not afraid of himself, at that time, whether it was the center of that school, whenever they saw themselves, their eyes were so similar to Gasol Jr.
"That's who I am!" Listening to the cheers of the audience, Auden said silently in his heart.
"Really!" Monty finally breathed a sigh of relief, I didn't think that Oden was really good, this is a miracle, in the Trail Blazers has been confirmed to be scrapped Oden came to the Hornets to play in less than two days, if it wasn't for his own personal experience, Monty wouldn't believe it at all, this is too, but all this really happened.
"Well done!" Wang Meng happily ran over and patted Oden, although such a block often appears on Okafor, there is no doubt which of these two has stronger potential, it can be said that with Oden and Gasol, the Hornets inside line has completely become a twin tower, not weaker than any team in the league.
Gasol Wallace and others also came up to encourage Oden, especially Wallace, who has been in the Trail Blazers and Oden for a long time, and he never imagined that Oden would be able to play one day, and he contributed such a powerful block as soon as he came on the court.
Encouragement is encouragement, the game still needs to be played, and because Oden flew out of Gasol Jr.'s layup, the ball is still the Grizzlies'.
Guy served from the baseline and passed the ball to Randolph, Randolph leaned on Gasol's body to shoot, was interfered with by Gasol's defense, missed the shot, and Oden pressed Gasol Jr. to rise high and easily grab the rebound.
Gasol Jr. made Oden extremely depressed, in terms of tonnage, Oden was only a little lighter than Gasol Jr., Gasol Jr. did not have much advantage, and in terms of explosiveness, Gasol Jr. was thrown a few streets away by Oden. Gasol Jr. and the Bulls' Noah are the same type of player, while Oden is a similar player to Howard, and when the two meet, explosive players like Oden and Howard tend to have the advantage.
Oden passed the ball to Wang Meng, Wang Meng was not in a hurry to attack quickly, the current Hornets are not suitable for fast attack, and the Hornets in the positional battle are obviously tougher.
Slowly controlling the ball over the half, Wang Meng beckoned to Pau Gasol to block and dismantle.
Monty perked up and immediately looked at it with full attention, this is the first time that the Hornets have used blocking and dismantling after the lineup has been replaced, and it has a very important impact on the arrangement of the Hornets blocking and dismantling tactics in the future, and it must be carefully observed.
Gasol blocked Conley, Wang Meng immediately broke through to the inside line, Randolph wanted to come over to make up for Wang Meng, but found that Big Gasol was moving in the direction of a forty-five degree angle, Conley went to chase Wang Meng, Big Gasol was equivalent to being completely let go, Randolph hesitated, or chose to go to Big Gasol, Big Gasol's mid-range shooting ability is very good, much stronger than his younger brother, Randolph didn't dare to give him a chance to vacate in the middle distance.
Randolph's concession, Wang Meng is in front of a smooth road, the only obstacle is Gasol Jr.'s younger brother, Gasol Jr., and next to Gasol Jr., there is also an Oden.
Gasol Jr. also encountered the same choice question as Randolph at this time, should he go up to make up for the defense or come to defend Oden? Oden is now standing on the bottom line, still a long way from the basket, and Wang Meng has broken through to the free throw line, if he doesn't go up to defend, Wang Meng can easily complete a dunk.
After thinking about it, Gasol Jr. still chose to make up for Wang Meng, at this time he still felt that Oden had an injury and played in general, and chose to make up for Wang Meng, who is currently the strongest firepower of the Hornets.
Seeing Gasol Jr. catching up, Wang Meng did not pass the ball at the first time, but specially greeted Gasol Jr. and clinged to Gasol Jr.
Gasol Jr. was not surprised to see this, most point guards in the league will choose this way to go to the basket in the face of the defense of tall players, cut close to the player and then go to the basket, so that the tall player cannot block the basketball too close to him because his arms are too long.
It's a good move, but it's not unbreakable, at least a top-notch defensive interior like Gasol Jr. can handle it. And because this way is too close to himself, Wang Meng can't see other people, that is, he can't pass the ball.
"I'm not afraid of you attacking, I'm afraid of you passing!" Little Gasol laughed secretly, leaned on Wang Meng, and while putting pressure on Wang Meng, he covered Wang Meng's sight with one hand.
What he was waiting for was the moment when Wang Meng jumped up and was ready to shoot, at that moment little Gasol immediately retreated, originally he was squeezing Wang Meng hard, Wang Meng had to resist the strength of little Gasol, so that he would not be squeezed out of the basket, if little Gasol let go, Wang Meng's strength was vacated, and his body would naturally lose balance, and give up the position, little Gasol's arms could be completely stretched, and Wang Meng could be easily blocked.
It's a very good defensive trick that can be used to defend point guards' close-up layups, and even if they can't be blocked, the guard's shooting percentage will be greatly reduced.
However, this time little Gasol miscalculated, according to the routine, little Gasol waited for Wang Meng to jump and immediately withdrew, and Wang Meng also lost his balance in the air as little Gasol predicted.
"Next is the cap!" Gasol Jr. laughed secretly, and stepped forward to shoot Feiwang Meng's basketball. At this moment, he felt very comfortable, he was capped by Oden just now, and this time he covered the boss of the wasp, which can be regarded as a bad breath.
"That's not right! What about basketball? Gasol Jr. just raised his hand, but was stunned to find that according to the plot in the script, Wang Meng's hand, which should have been raised high for a basketball layup, was empty.
Suddenly, little Gasol was stunned.
