Chapter 1045: Three points are unreasonable
At this time, the Pelicans played a simple passing tactic, and Gasol gave the basketball directly to Li Feng at the top of the arc on the sideline.
Li Feng came up with the ball here, and when he saw that the opponent was still shrinking inside to defend, he still did not shoot from a distance, but suddenly forced a step to press the free throw line, and then raised his hand to make a shooting feint.
Li Feng was in the middle of the court to attract the opponent's attention, but Luo Teng took the opportunity to use Aljefferson's cover to run towards the flank.
Kaloon Butler is not afraid of the inside confrontation, afraid of someone running back and forth, Luo Teng ran out like this, he suddenly didn't keep up, Li Feng happened to pass the basketball to Luo Teng's hands at this time, Luo Teng took the ball and shot a three-pointer.
"The Pelicans are back attacking and it's really improving, and it looks like the Pelicans are feeling good today!"
Mark Jones was clearly supporting the Pelicans, and at this time the Wizards quickly chased after him.
The Wizards played a very common tactic at this time, high blocking and pick-and-roll, and this tactic will be played as long as it is a team. But the effect is completely different, the team that is good at using this tactic can enter the key game by relying on this trick, and the team that is not good at using this tactic will not be able to play a chance at all.
There is only one key point in the tactics of high-level blocking and dismantling, that is, to have a good guard, without a good guard, you will definitely not be able to play, and if you have a good guard, you will definitely be able to play.
Now the Wizards have a good guard at the top of the league, so once this high post block is rolled out, the tactics immediately work.
Wall came over to take advantage of the high block and broke through. Then he took a zigzag line and passed to Kaloon Butler in the bottom right corner.
Caron Butler took the ball and Rotten stuck it to death, and he only dribbled in and handed the ball to Gortat in the box.
Gortat took the ball and saw a half-man defending himself. He immediately turned around and passed the ball to Otto Porter, who took the ball and flicked it back to Wall, who ran out.
The Wizards actually passed the ball so many times in one round, which was something that had never happened before, and after many passes and breakthroughs, the Wizards did open up the opportunity, and there was no one in front of Wall to get the ball again.
Wall was a solid three-point throw. Steady shot!
The Pelicans hit a three-pointer, the Wizards immediately hit a three-pointer, and the Wizards hit the ball, but that's not the point.
The point is that the Wizards played too patiently today. It's not a wizard's style anymore. So at this time, Qiong Bari and Yang Yi exclaimed together in the two kingdoms:
"Oh! It's too patient, it's so reasonable! Is this the wizard I know, it's unlikely! ”
The Wizards played such a round, and the Pelicans were a little silly! Because the Wizards have always been a team like Zhang Fei before, and now they have suddenly become the meticulous Zhao Zilong, and the Pelicans are a little unable to adapt to the role changes of the Wizards.
The Wizards returned a three-pointer. Then immediately retreat back. Because the Pelicans are also a very fast team.
The Pelicans came over this time, and Knight faced the opposing defense, and he passed the basketball to Rothten.
Luo Teng took the ball directly under the crotch and singled out Kaloon Butler, which was an obvious disadvantage, he rushed up and broke through a step before being cut off by Kaloon Butler.
In this case, Luo Teng could only turn around and protect the basketball with his body, Luo Teng's side was already a little unbearable, at this time Kaloon Butler put pressure on Luo Teng's body, and Luo Teng was finished. But at this point, Crumon Butler is now taking a risky steal. He made a steal in the past and the ball didn't get there. Instead, he leaked people.
Luo Teng was already about to pass the ball, but suddenly had such an opportunity, dribbled forward and threw a mid-range shot to get 2 points again.
Roten scored 5 points in a row, and Caron Butler had problems defending Roten, after all, Caron Butler is still an all-out offensive player, and there are indeed some problems with defensive experience.
After calling a timeout, the Pelicans did get some improvement on offense. But once the Wizards lost the ball, it was immediately the baseline that quickly advanced up, Wall quickly dribbled the ball at this time, and saw that Caron Butler on the side had a vacancy, he immediately passed the ball to Caron Butler, and Caron Butler shot a long-distance shot from the three-point line.
The result was a missed shot!
The basketball rebounded, and the Pelicans were always a fast team, and the rebounds were like a tidal wave rushing towards the opponent's half.
The Pelicans pushed up quickly, Knight passed the ball to Li Feng, Li Feng dribbled diagonally, took advantage of his teammates' cover, and also threw a mid-range pull-up jump shot near the free throw line.
Li Feng made a shot for the first time, and it felt average, and Li Feng missed the basketball shot.
"Bang"
Li Feng also hit the iron, the two teams attacked quickly, and the Wizards didn't slow down when they grabbed the rebound, and they turned around and rushed back.
The Wizards rushed back, Wall passed the ball to Nene who came out, and Nene saw that Al Jefferson's attention was on the side at this time, almost unguarded himself, and he suddenly mustered up the courage to go up to make a breakthrough, wanting to score 2 points on the face frame attack.
But now he is not the same as he was ten years ago, the speed is long gone, and the height of the bounce is long gone. He rushed up so much, Gasol didn't make much effort under the basket, took a step to help defend, and went up to dial the layup of Nene.
Nene was covered, and suddenly there was an exclamation in the stadium.
Joanbari also laughed at this time:
"Nene is jumping too low now, I was able to cover that height when I was younger."
Mark Jackson also smiled and said:
"Yes! Back then, he always covered other people's inside, and he must never have imagined that he would be so miserable one day! ”
These two guys are teasing Nene and Nene is also quite depressed, when he took off other people's jump shots directly in the air and took them into his arms.
Today he himself was blocked by Gasol, a European center forward who is not very good at jumping, which is really a heavenly cycle.
The Pelicans immediately won the rebound in the backcourt, Knight took the ball and broke through quickly, and Li Feng delayed Wall on the side.
That's it. Knight was able to get the ball forward quickly, and in the opposition half, Knight saw that Otto Porter had given him half a step, and he also pulled up at the top of the arc and threw a long-range shot.
Knight wasn't good at shooting from a distance. At this time, there is no advantage in hitting Otto Porter, the basketball shot is short, and it hits the front line and rebounds back.
After the high hit rate of the two teams in the opening game, the iron hit back and forth at a fast speed, and one after another misses were blocked.
The pace of the game was fast, leaving the fans feeling dizzying, but the score did not move. At this time, Joanbari said:
"The Wizards and Pelicans are playing fast though. But their backcourt rebounds are well protected, and both teams are among the best in the league in rebounding. In the fast offense and defense, he didn't lose the backcourt rebound. ”
When Barry was talking so much about rebounding. The Wizards' offense rushed up again, in the midst of a high-speed rhythm.
Wall showed his quality as a top defender again, breaking through with high cover and then turning back and making a wide pass to Otto Porter in the bottom corner. Otto Porter took the ball and passed it back to Caron Butler at the top of the arc.
Kaloon Butler doesn't have a good chance at this point. But in the face of the opponent's defense, he still probed his body slightly, and then jumped back with his front foot, and suddenly shot a three-point shot.
Kaloon Butler is still a top scorer in the end, and Roten is still not enough to see, his three-point shot "Wow! A thud landed in the Pelican's basket.
14-9, as soon as Clauon Butler's three-pointer was shot, the Wizards opened up some points slightly. But Van Gundy was also quite helpless at this time. His team's defense is in place, and Caron Butler's shot is purely individual ability. It has nothing to do with anything else.
Now that Caron Butler has come out, Li Feng must respond, the Pelicans kicked off the baseline, and Knight gave the basketball to Li Feng in the backcourt.
Li Feng quickly dribbled the ball, and as soon as he ran over, he immediately took advantage of a cover from El Jefferson and raised his hand to the flank for a mid-range.
As soon as Li Feng made a move, Otto Porter found that he couldn't defend himself, and he didn't hesitate to foul his own foul and went up to give Li Feng a thug. Li Feng couldn't shoot, the referee's whistle blew, and Li Feng went to the free throw line.
Today, the Wizards' defense was indeed a lot more ferocious, and Otto Porter's foul was very resolute.
When Li Feng was preparing for a free throw at the free throw line, the Wizards began to make substitutions, Randy Whitman just saw that Al Jefferson was not very good at defending None, so he immediately replaced Gooden and replaced Nene with Gooden on the court, Al Jefferson did not dare to pack Gortat, so that he could still play a dozen inside.
Randy Whitman calculated a good calculation, Van Gundy also changed someone here, he saw that Knight was suppressed today and it didn't feel good, he immediately replaced Knight with Turner.
The Pelicans' point guard position is basically the two of them, whoever plays better will have a longer time, and those who don't play well will play less for a while.
The two sides made substitutions, Li Feng made one of the two free throws, and the scores of the two teams became 14-10.
From the beginning to the present, in terms of feel, it is still better for the Wizards, whose offense is more fluid and the defense is more in place. So far, the Pelicans haven't had anything too eye-catching.
The Wizards were leading at home at this time and did not dare to slack off, Wall rushed over with the ball and gave the basketball to Gooden, who had just come out on the court. Gooden has been scolded by Randy Whitman for the past two days, and now he is a lot more honest, and he didn't dare to do it himself when he took the ball, but passed the ball to Gortat, who came up.
Gortat took the ball and stood firm to cover it, and it was only then that Gooden and Gortat staggered past hand-to-hand passes.
Now in charge of defending Gooden is Al Jefferson, who is unable to defend against this kind of fast running, he can only shrink inside.
In this way, Gooden came over with the ball to see the "big vacancy", so he didn't hold back the desire to shoot. Look, raised his hand and threw a three-point shot.
Not to mention, Gooden's hand feels good today, and the basketball "huh!" A thud landed in the Pelican's basket.
As a result, the Wizards stretched the margin to 17-10. And the Wizards' three-point shot today was all three shots, which was completely very good. The last time the Wizards had a good hand, today's game was not bad.
Yang Yi also said:
"The Wizards hit three three-pointers today, and the Pelicans have a problem with Gooden's defense, how can Al Jefferson keep up with Gooden's speed! This one must be adjusted. ”
Van Gundy also realized at this time that if Gooden was on the right three. Al Jefferson may not be enough. It's better to replace it with Lefou, but it's too early to call a pause, so it's better to pause later.
Van Gundy waited and didn't move. The Pelicans switched to a point guard and pushed in, and the style was different from what it was just now. Knight is still playmaker-oriented, and Turner is focused on attacking the basket, so he took the ball and passed it to Li Feng.
Li Feng pushed over here, looked up and saw that Al Jefferson had carded Gooden on the bottom line, Gooden hit Al Jefferson out of place, and Al Jefferson hit him out of place. The advantage of height and weight is obvious.
Li Feng immediately passed the ball over, and Al Jefferson took the ball and turned to face the basket and shook it slightly, on top of Gooden's head. The easy small mid-range shot also scored 2 points.
As soon as Al Jefferson hit the ball, Van Gundy even felt that it would be better to replace it with Lefu a little later. Let's see if Al Jefferson can beat Gooden down, or Gooden can beat Al Jefferson.
Previously, the Pelicans and Wizards were almost evenly matched, and at this time, El Jefferson and Gooden were out of place.
This is the first big opportunity. The side that catches can definitely change the game. So at this time, Randy Whitman was also standing still, although Randy Whitman felt that Gooden was sometimes very helpless, but he didn't believe that Gooden was better than Al Jefferson.
The turning point of the game came, the Wizards pushed in again, and Wall was very experienced. He also saw this opportunity, he had to let Gooden run, otherwise putting Gooden in the position would only be a loophole, not a turning point.
Wall came over and called Gooden's high pick-and-roll. Gooden's level of blocking and running is still very high. You must know that he was the fourth player in the draft, and these basketball foundations are very solid.
Gooden went over to block Wall at this time. Then quickly move towards the flank.
Wall immediately took the basketball back, Gooden stepped back to catch the ball, and Al Jefferson was completely thrown away. At this time, Gooden took the ball and threw it out with a three-pointer!
"Brush!"
Gooden's three-pointer hit again, this time with two consecutive three-pointers.
The Wizards' home court was suddenly boiling, and the fans in Washington, who like to be lively, cheered the whole audience. The Wizards' home morale is finally out.
Gooden, who shot two three-pointers in a row, was also happy himself, and once he was happy, his hand could only feel better.
The Wizards opened the situation first with a three-point shot, and at this time Mark Jones also began to worry:
"The Pelicans have a problem with their three-point line defense, and it's not a way to let the Wizards shoot three-pointers like this."
Joan Bari also said at this time:
"Al Jefferson can't defend Gooden, especially when Gooden is in good hands. It's time for Van Gundy to make a substitution! ”
Both of them began to get anxious on the sidelines, and the cheers of the home team were like a tide.
The Pelicans encountered their first predicament, and the Wizards rewrote the score to 20-12, and the difference quietly widened. encountered this dilemma, but the Pelicans themselves did not panic.
Because the Pelicans have experienced strong winds and waves, they have been beaten by 20 points, and they have all encountered these situations, so now they are encountering such a small situation, although these players are young, they have no psychological pressure.
Turner's side pushed forward steadily, not arrogant or impatient, and in the opponent's half, Turner passed the basketball to Rotten who pulled out.
Luo Teng briefly controlled the ball and crossed with Li Feng to cover, and then passed the basketball to Li Feng, Li Feng took the ball back and hit the ball to the hands of Al Jefferson near the penalty area.
Al Jefferson hit a mid-range shot from Rotten just now, and this time he came up to get the ball and shook his shoulders directly, and turned around and threw a throw.
Under the basket, Al Jefferson played Rotten easily, and came up to get 2 points easily, Gooden played Al Jefferson misplaced, Al Jefferson played Gooden is also misplaced, and the Pelicans scored two points with a steady style of play.
From 20 to 14, seeing how easily Al Jefferson beat Gooden, Joanbari felt a little, and he said:
"Just now I watched Gooden make a few consecutive three-pointers and was a little anxious for the Pelicans, but now I see Al Jefferson eating in a row. I still feel that the pelican seems to be more stable! ”
Yang Yi also said at this time:
"Van Gundy is so steady! It's not adjusted like this, it's still tentative! This psychological element zhì is too strong. ”
Because the Pelicans have been through so many things, they can stabilize their mentality at this time and will not be swayed too much by the changes on the outside.
The Pelicans tried to stabilize the game today. suppressed the opponent to play, but the game was different from what the Pelicans expected.
After the Wizards were shot from this mid-range, they passed the basketball to Caron Butler in the backcourt. Kaloon Butler's side took the ball from the back and pushed it forward quickly.
Kaloon Butler's ball at this time also accelerated suddenly, he suddenly began to break through from the backfield, Kaloon Butler's breakthrough is not fast, but Roten is not a fast player.
Seeing that Caron Butler was coming, Gortat was still covering for Caron Butler in the high position, so that Caron Butler went straight to the Pelicans' restricted area from the middle. For a dangerous person like Caron Butler, the Pelicans are a must-kill, and come over immediately to wrap it up. At such moments, Kalombbutler threw the basketball outside.
Otto Porter, who doesn't have a strong sense of storage, took the ball in the open space at this time, and shot directly and still made a three-pointer.
"Huh!"
After the Wizards hit two consecutive three-pointers from Gooden, Otto Porter also came up with a three-pointer. As a result, the Wizards threw five three-pointers at the beginning of the first quarter, and the three-pointers in the first quarter were five of six shots.
This hit rate is scary, and the Wizards have another convulsion at the beginning of today. This kind of convulsion can even be called habitual convulsions.
The Wizards stretched the score to 23-14, and the difference between the two teams has a tendency to widen again.
With this three-point shot from Otto Porter. The Wizards' home court was even more cheering. Yang Yi also exclaimed:
"Another three points for the Wizards! This is too godly, isn't it? ”
Mark Jones was also shocked and said:
"The last time the Wizards on both sides were convulsive enough. How can you still come today. Could it be that the wizards are professional convulsions! This kind of three-point shot in five of six shots is too unreasonable! ”
Joan Barry also said at this time:
"We all know that the Wizards have a lot of offensive ability. It's the same again today! It was a surprise, but the Wizards' high shooting percentage today was a little different from the last time the two sides were on the same page. ”
"The last time the Wizards hit a high shot on both sides was really unreasonable, and Caron Butler shot right in front of the defenders, and it was all forced shots. But there is some truth to the Wizards' three-point shooting today, which was shot in a misplaced and open position. In this case, the Wizards' efficient play is also understandable. ”
The Pelicans were shot five in one go, and Van Gundy was a little silly, Nima! The Wizards are also too unreasonable. The last time the double just had a convulsion. Come back today! It's like using a pelican as a target.
The Pelicans' players are also booing each other one by one, and the Wizards are starting to be abnormal again today. They can only endure it.
Turner took the ball and pushed it up, took advantage of Li Feng's cover, and then turned back to the basketball and gave it back to Li Feng.
The team was beaten like this, Li Feng had to stand up at this time, he took the ball and immediately broke through Otto Porter, Li Feng broke through from the left and then suddenly made a reverse step, jumped to the right, and then passed the ball from the right to give the basketball to the hands of Al Jefferson under the basket, Al Jefferson had a huge advantage here and screamed, and completed the dunk under the Wizards' basket.
"Bang dang!"
The Pelicans responded with a dunk.
So far, the Pelicans' table is still very perfect, the team's overall performance is very reasonable, very stable, and the offense is also good. But as with both sides last time, although the Pelicans were better overall, they still lagged behind.
Wall took possession of the ball at this time, came up and called Gortat's cover, and took advantage of Gortat's cover, Wall went around and suddenly passed the ball to Kaloon Butler.
On his side, Caron Butler took the ball and forced two steps to break through, then turned around and passed the basketball to Gooden, who was pulled outside the three-point line.
Gooden took the ball at this time and quickly shot another one, and the Wizards made another three-pointer.
At this moment, the Wizards were thunderous at home, and the air defense sirens sounded over the stadium.
"Woooooo
The alarm at the Wizards' home stadium sounded for a long time, and Yu Jia and Yang Yi exclaimed at the same time:
"Another one, that's unreasonable!"
The Wizards are really unreasonable today, but it's not that they are unreasonable in their individual singles, but that this hit rate is unreasonable. The Wizards made six of seven shots, and this shooting percentage is unimaginable. And today, the Wizards' 2-point shooting rate is only two out of five, but the three-point shot is six out of seven, which is scary.
In this case, the Pelican was really a little stunned by the other party, and Li Feng also looked at the few people of the wizards opposite in disbelief.
Li Feng was thinking about whether these people are crazy, whether they are wrong or not, this is all a miracle situation. (To be continued......)
