Chapter 138: Fast-paced Attack!

After the timeout, the players on both sides returned to the court, and the Nets on the opposite side could basically see the general name of the Kings when they saw the lineup, and the experienced commentators on the sidelines could naturally see it.

"Rick Adelman has switched on a small lineup, and it looks like the Kings are trying to pick up the speed, which is a bold attempt, and if the Kings can guarantee the speed and success of the counterattack, the Nets will have a headache, but if they can't do that, the defense of this lineup will be a huge challenge."

"With such a bunch of little guys, hey, it's mine under the basket!" At this time, López, who was present, undoubtedly looked a little excited, and he felt that he could do whatever he wanted.

The Kings want to increase the tempo on the court, while the Nets players believe that their height will have a big advantage, but who can achieve their wishes will depend on the game after all.

The Kings took the lead in attacking, and because of the timeout, when the Kings sent the ball, the Nets had already set up a defensive formation.

After receiving Iguodala's sideline serve, Evans paused slightly outside the three-point line, and then dribbled towards the basket, the Nets really contracted the defense, letting Robinson empty in the middle distance, and Lopez came to the three-second zone to pinch Evans with Williams.

Successfully luring Lopes to the side of the three-second zone, Evans immediately passed the ball to the other side and began to run into Iguodala, who was inside the three-point line, and turned and ran to the high post.

After receiving the ball, Iguodala shook off Pierce and broke through to the basket.

At this time, Lopez was not able to fully move to the other side of the three-second zone, and Garnett, who was defending Middleton on the baseline, immediately moved his feet from the baseline to shrink the defense, seizing this opportunity, Iguodala passed the ball out and sent it to Middleton in the bottom corner.

Li Tian, who had already shot in the first half, was guarded by the Nets, and Middleton was obviously not as valued by the Nets as much, so although Li Tian and Middleton were not far away, Johnson did not go to make up for the defense, but still stopped in front of Li Tian, only Garnett, who had contracted the originally, rushed towards the bottom corner, but his distance was also far away and could no longer stop Middleton's shot.

Middleton didn't get a lot of playing opportunities last season because of the Kings' overcrowded interior guard, but this season with the departure of several players and his good performance in training camp, playing time has started to increase.

Middleton's technique is somewhat similar to that of Li Tian, and although his shooting after running without the ball and his shooting from point to point are not as good as Li Tian's, they are not bad.

This time, after receiving a pass from Iguodala, Middleton seized the opportunity and hit it from outside the three-point line in the bottom corner.

Lopez sent the ball under the basket to Williams, knowing that the Kings wanted to increase the tempo of the game, and Williams was deliberately pressing the tempo into the half.

For small lineups, offense is often not too much of a problem, the key is defense, especially on the inside. The Nets players also understand this, so after falling into the position, Lopez immediately went to the inside line to jam Robinson's position, and Williams also sent the ball to Lopez as soon as possible.

Bag clip!

Almost at the same time that the basketball came to Lopez, Evans also followed to the inside to attack, not giving Lopez a chance to dribble at all.

In desperation, Lopes had no choice but to put the ball back in Williams' hands, and Williams took advantage of Evans' return to defend and passed the ball to Lopez again.

This time, Lopez moved faster, leaned heavily on his back after receiving the ball, squeezed Robinson out of the way, and then turned to pick up the ball for a shot.

But at the same time, Evans rushed back again, and Robinson sandwiched Lopez in the middle.

Lopez didn't choose to return the ball to Williams, relying on his height, Lopez hooked up and shot in the middle of the two.

"Bang!" However, the two's pinch still caused Lopez to interfere after all, and the basketball spun around the basket and then fell out.

"Fight back!" Robinson grabbed the rebound and put the ball in Evans' hands as soon as possible, while the rest of the Kings rushed to the other half.

At this time, the players in the Kings court are Robinson, Iguodala, Middleton, Li Tian, and Evans, and all five of them have extremely good running ability, even Robinson, who is an interior player, can run faster than Pierce, a small forward in the Nets.

The Kings players rushed up, and the Nets players immediately felt the pressure, Lopez and Garnett were quickly left behind, and Johnson and Pierce could not completely follow their defenders.

Dribbling to half-court, Evans found that his teammates seemed to have a very good chance, a through ball that Evans sent to Iguodala.

At the same time, Li Tian, who was about to run towards the basket, suddenly rushed towards the three-point line on the right sideline.

"Porphyry!" Johnson was busy moving his steps to keep up, but he had barely moved when he found himself blocked by someone.

Robinson! Robinson's excellent running ability allowed him to grab the rebound almost as long as the other Kings ran to the halfcourt, and at the signal of Li Tian, he came to the right side of the high post to cover.

Johnson was blocked by Robinson, Li Tian was completely empty at this time, and the rest of the Nets players either hadn't retreated in place, or were too far away to catch up with the front defense.

With such a good opportunity, Iguodala naturally would not turn a blind eye, pushed forward with both hands, and he sent the ball to Li Tian outside the three-point line.

Receiving the ball outside the three-point line and shooting, Li Tian will not hesitate at the moment.

The first catch of the ball in the second half, however, this did not affect Li Tian's hot hand today.

"Huh!" Basketball goes through the net and three-point shot!

At 55:66, the Kings made two consecutive three-pointers to narrow the gap to only 5 points and quickly widen it to 11 points.

Nets offense, although the previous ball Lopes did not score, but after coming to the half, Williams still chose to put the ball in the hands of Lopez, judging from the situation on the court, Lopez is obviously the most advantageous point.

Go ahead and wrap the clip! Since the Nets have made up their minds to let Lopez attack, the Kings will carry the bag to the end.

This time, in the face of the bag Lopez did not choose to force a shot, the ball was transferred to the hands of Garnett in the middle distance, and the old wolf king scored 2 points on a mid-range jumper.

Almost at the same time as Garnett's goal, Robinson reached out to take the ball and quickly sent it to Evans, and by this time, the remaining three players of the Kings were about to cross the halfline.

"Ball!" Continuing to run forward, rushing across the halfway line and standing two steps outside the three-point line, Li Tian immediately raised his hand to Evans, who was rushing quickly in the backcourt, to ask for the ball.

Evans did not hesitate, and immediately sent the ball to Li Tian's hands, so that the speed of the long pass was obviously faster than Evans's advancement, and after receiving the ball, Li Tian sent the ball to Iguodala in the middle.

After receiving Li Tian's pass during the run, Iguodala directly changed and accelerated backwards, so that Pierce, who had not yet stood in a good position, did not even have a chance to block.

Pierce's defense was breached, and Lopez had not yet arrived, and Garnett, who was originally following Middleton, had to shrink his defense to prevent Iguodala from dunking directly.

It was this moment that Iguodala was waiting for, and as Garnett moved to the interior defense, the ball in his hand was quickly rolled out and sent to Middleton, who was once again standing in the bottom corner.

Johnson, who was standing in front of Li Tian, obviously couldn't completely ignore Middleton at this moment, just two rounds ago, Middleton had just shot a three-pointer, so although he knew that Li Tian might be empty when he left, Johnson still had to rush towards Middleton.

Pass! Johnson guessed completely right, Middleton really passed, and it was Li Tian who passed.

"Damn it!" At this time, the closest to Li Tian was Lopez, who had just run outside the three-point line, and after seeing Li Tian receive the ball, he quickly rushed over.

However, Lopez's speed is simply not comparable to Middleton's passing speed, and he was more than two meters away when the basketball appeared in Li Tian's hands.

Lopez, who knew that he couldn't stop Li Tian's shot, still tried his best to raise his hand and rush towards Li Tian, trying to bring a little interference to Li Tian.

However, he is facing Li Tian who has a burst of hands today!

"Coaxing" Li Tian just jumped outside the three-point line, and at this time, the Kings fans on the sidelines had already stood up and cheered!

And Li Tian did not disappoint them......

"Huh!" The hand is up and down, and the three-point shot is hit!

"Tick!" On the sidelines, Kidd called a timeout.

At 57:69, the difference between the two teams was once again widened to 12 points, and the most critical thing was that the king's change of formation and increased tempo made Kidd have to call a timeout to deal with it.
