Chapter 1102: Old and Young
"Wow, wow, wow!"
After Pierce broke off the basketball so trickyly, Barkley screamed repeatedly, this time it was so godly, godly, it made people feel unreal.
"Did Pierce really learn to read minds, he must have guessed that Anthony was a feint, he must have been to Anthony's action, so he didn't hesitate to pull out the ball, not to block or jump, let alone in a daze, when Anthony didn't finish a move, he judged the opponent's movements, which is simply a magical ability."
Barkley screams here, it's not unreasonable Pierce is simply too good at surprise, he is too good at giving people unexpected good news, he can actually break the ball like this, it's okay to do this, the Pelicans' bench players are in ecstasy, when yelling.
Anthony was so depressed, super depressed, he just couldn't figure it out, how could this be possible, how could he know what he was going to do, how could he guess his movements, Anthony still wanted to fight to snatch the ball back.
Anthony also wants to snatch the basketball back from Corey and get back face, whenever the basketball is in Corey's hands, it is so easy to come back, Corey cleverly walks around Anthony.
At halftime, he immediately handed over the basket to Li Feng to deal with, Li Feng was very depressed when he met Anthony who was furious just now, and immediately after receiving the basketball, he began to slam into Joe Johnson twice, but fortunately he didn't break Joe Johnson's ◎ knee again.
However, Joe Johnson was still too soft, and when he saw that Li Feng was hitting him too hard, he simply made way for Jackson, and Jackson broke through.
After Jackson unexpectedly came in, he saw that Al Jefferson was near the baseline, and he gave the ball to Neil Jr.
Al Jefferson received basketball here In fact, he played really easily today, because the Nets were playing a fake forward Bogdanovic today, and he didn't know the same level as Al Jefferson.
Al Jefferson received the ball here and dribbled with a step to suppress Bogdanovic and did whatever he wanted, turning around was an inward wipe attack, Bogdanovic had to fight physically, and there was no footwork. The height is even bigger, what does he use to defend Al Jefferson?
I could only watch as Al Jefferson wiped it past him, and then pushed the basketball into the basket with a very non-standard left-handed shot.
Al-Jefferson is playing well and easily here, and Lopez is so angry that he is ready to defend Al-Jefferson himself for a while.
At this time, seeing that his players successfully defended the opponent through guò self-rectification, and then played the inside line smoothly and firmly, Van Gundy himself really felt guilty, but he was too narrow-minded at first.
At the beginning, Anthony's explosion was definitely not the Pelicans' defense, but Anthony's suddenness, and Jackson, who dealt with him, did not have his own advantages. He still asked to defend desperately at the time, but it was a dereliction of duty, he didn't have to be so excited just now, although the Nets had Anthony who smoked, but Lionel Hollins just sent Lopez up alone, one big and four small, then Al Jefferson was completely released.
At this time, no matter how the opponent plays, he will stubbornly grasp the point of Al Jefferson to make a fuss, and the Nets will not be able to take advantage of it. They want to play fast, so they first chisel a leg for themselves, and then they still have an advantage.
Gradually, I figured it out that Van Gundy was not so anxious in his body, and his heart was also stable, and Li Feng also saw the changes in Van Gundy. But he's not going to make Van Gundy apologize, whatever, it doesn't matter, the game is the first thing now.
Anthony was cut off two balls in a row by Pierce. When you Anthony was the one you could tacitly lose, you said Anthony could swallow this breath, Anthony couldn't. I can't do this at all, no matter how I say that Anthony is proud in his heart, he used to be the boss of a team, and he is also the creator of countless miracles, if he is not defeated, it is definitely not Anthony.
Anthony still asked DeLong for the ball this time, but DeLong really didn't dare to give the ball to Anthony at this time, but Anthony just yelled at Super Delong to ask for the ball, which was an embarrassing moment.
DeLong is still a new one at this time, and Anthony who doesn't dare to sin knows that something is wrong, but he still gives the basketball to Anthony, and Anthony, who has been broken twice in a row, is really anxious this time, and he doesn't care about it.
After a series of dribbles, even if he didn't shake off Pierce at all, he still used his body to squeeze through Pierce's body and jump into the Pelicans' inside.
Anthony's destructive power is shown at this time, he can score by himself, or he can force himself to get into trouble for the Pelicans, at this time Anthony thinks a little bit about others This Pelican is not good, but fortunately now he wants to prove himself.
He got in and found Gasol to make a layup, what he wanted to challenge was the highest peak of the other party, but Gasol was quite depressed today, and depressed people had fire in their hearts, and people with anger forced them to be fierce as usual
Gasol suddenly pounced in front of Anthony, staring at Anthony with two eyes as fierce as a jaguar hunting, and then fully displayed the defensive skills handed over to him by Li Feng, without giving Anthony a chance at all, and Anthony could only use the folding layup he was good at when he jumped.
The probability of scoring a goal for a difficult layup was not high, and Anthony's time was under Gasol's full defense, and he barely squeezed in Pierce to complete the inevitable lack of height, and he shot a three-pointer, and then fell.
Anthony scored consecutive goals just now and the Barclays Center applauded and cheered, but Anthony made another mistake, and the Barclays Center still gave Anthony a boo.
Seeing Anthony's three non-sticks, Hardaway sighed sadly and said:
"Now Anthony's hand is starting to get worse, and this Anthony is no longer the Anthony of the opening."
"Man cannot always be in a state of supernormality."
Miller returned the favor to Hardaway.
At this time, not only did the commentary see it, but Hollins also saw that Anthony's side seemed to be failing.
However, if a team has a very good interior line, he will have a great advantage, although Anthony's ball is not touched, but the throw is indeed very far to the back of Gasol, at this time the ball becomes a battle between El Jefferson and Lopez.
Al Jefferson is really a lot older than Lopez in terms of age, and Al Jefferson also had surgery, so I'm not defending Al Jefferson. If Al Jefferson hadn't had surgery, he would still have had a fight with Lopez, but the injured person wouldn't have been as good as the original.
That's absolutely true, Lopez and Al Jefferson jumped together, but once they moved, Lopez touched the ball first, and he grabbed the basketball in the air in a daze.
Al Jefferson is the difference, he can't reach basketball, this is the gap in physical talent, the age gap, and even the helpless gap. At this point, Al Jefferson could only sigh and do nothing, watching Lopez get the rebound on his head, but he couldn't do anything.
After Lopez grabbed the rebound, Al Jefferson immediately got to the side and stuck the inward position, which Al Jefferson did very quickly, and put it on Lopez, although he got the rebound in the front court, but he didn't have a chance to attack, so he could only turn back and talk about the basketball and pass it to Koglou.
Bogdanovic was already outside the three-point line in the bottom corner at this time, and El Jefferson, who should have let go of Bogdanovic, was still indulging in the pain of losing the fight for rebounds, and Joan, the only defender who could hold Bogdanovic on the outside, was staring at Anthony face-to-face.
That's because of it. Bogdanovic was outside the three-point line, calmly and without urgency, and the Croatian's shot was definitely not beautiful. There is no sense of rhythm or even ugly.
But he does have the ability to shoot three points, and the three-point trajectory is as sharp as a knife when it comes to him, and it suddenly pierces the Pelican's basket, and Van Gundy is very painful in his heart at this time.
Because now he can see that the Nets smashed a thigh and won a fully automatic wheelchair. Lopez's power is on full display, and what the Nets need now is the same set of the 9495 Houston Rockets.
Big men with threats on the inside, and a group of shooters on the outside. A fake power forward, although it will blow up, but it will also blow up the opponent, Al Jefferson dominates the opponent, and the price he pays is to let Bogdanovic fire at will.
"I see."
Kenny Smith watched Bogdanovic's three-point replay with fascination, the Nets played this hand he himself watched too much in the Rockets, and now it looks a little familiar, but, but, ah, the Nets play this hand is still a little tender.
Kenny Smith thinks back to his years and looks at the Nets' lineup, and now the Nets don't change our tactics.
Anthony is no longer rampant scoring, but the Nets' scoring pattern is turned on, a Lopez moves on the Pelicans' inside, and there are three shooters standing outside, just so the Nets get a lot of scoring opportunities, they are very efficient, and Lopez has completely suppressed Gasol on the inside.
The game entered the eighth minute of the first quarter, the Nets took the Pelicans 24-16, the Nets had very good luck today, they fully possessed Anthony's power, and the good feel of the whole behind, and the Pelicans, they were a little pitiful, nothing, it was simply their end, if you have to say that the Pelicans played well, only Al Jefferson's interior was unscrupulous, but the problem was that when Al Jefferson was unscrupulous on the opponent's interior, Bogdanovic also shot recklessly from the outside.
Lionel Hollins was satisfied with his team's total suppression of the opposition, stroking his big belly and smiling contentedly, as if he had eaten the Pelicans into his stomach.
He quickly completed his substitution, and the Pelicans' side is also changing the lineup, which is definitely not a difficult thing for the Pelicans, because now there is a difference in the scores of the two teams, and Van Gundy is crazy to stuff two shooters into it when he makes a substitution.
He was replaced by Knight and Granger, as well as Henson and Kelly, and Li Feng was left to lead the bench.
Because Lionel Hollins' interior line is by no means much better than his own, the Nets have replaced the bench lineup with point guard Jack, scoring guard Alan Anderson, small forward Karasev, power forward David Lee, and center Mason Plumlee.
At this time, Van Gundy looked at the Nets' bench lineup, and he felt comfortable, Hollins, weren't you a cow just now, use all the good steel. I see how you play off the bench now, but the Nets' bench lineup is a bit cold.
It's not just that there is no striking power on the inside, and there is no one who can shoot on the outside, the Pelicans here are completely different, Li Feng, Granger, Knight, the outside trio composed of these three is simply a murderous trio, and this firepower intensity is not comparable to the other party at all.
Both teams reappeared. The ball of the Nets at the beginning, because it was the Nets, they called a timeout.
Jack's side dribbled over, Jack actually played well in the Nets, I can't say how good it is, but it's really okay, whether it's offense or defense, it's all conscientious play, and occasionally he also smoked it to give the team a little surprise.
It's just that the Pelicans sent Li Feng to stare at Jack in a misplaced position. The purpose is obvious, to lock the engine on the opposite side.
As soon as Li Fengdi stood in front of him, it was like standing on a black iron tower, and the area and volume were all a full circle. Jack sent the basketball to his home against all odds, because this Li Feng always harassed Jack all the way, and Li Feng's arm was still long, and he almost took the basketball off several times.
Jack dribbled the ball over and passed it to Alan Anderson. Alan Anderson received the ball and saw that in front of him was Knight, a tender rookie who was more tender than himself, he was ready to bully the other party, and dribbled the ball very savagely, like knocking Knight away. Alan Anderson wants to get away with it, he's really found the wrong opponent, do you think Knight is a character to mess with.
Although Knight looks a little dull in life, he definitely belongs to the kind of home with a bad stomach, he sees Alan Anderson's movements so big, and the referee is on the other side, how can he not take advantage of this opportunity.
Immediately, Knight himself screamed "ah" and shook twice, and fell to the ground with a realistic expression.
Alan Anderson himself was originally a wicked person, and he thought that there were people who were more ruthless than himself, and it was actually the wicked who sued first, and as soon as he moved here, the other party fell directly to the ground.
The referee didn't know what was wrong with this, so he gave Alan Anderson a dribbling bumper when he came up, and Alan Anderson was also in a hurry, he was in a hurry like explaining to the referee, but the referee didn't give Alan Anderson a chance to explain at all, and people didn't stop talking to rookies like Alan Anderson.
Knight patted his ass and stood up and earned a ball for nothing, here Alan Anderson is angry, Alan Anderson is originally a troublemaker and a troublemaker, he didn't make a move before he let Knight give a yin, how could he be willing.
However, the Pelicans won the ball, Li Feng pinched the ball and went to the Nets, and now the Pelicans have a task to come off the bench, and the task is to help the team fill in the small hole in front of them.
At this time, what Li Feng recalled in his mind was that before he played, Van Gundy patted himself on the shoulder and apologized to himself.
"Li Feng, it was my mistake just now, it was completely my mistake, and now the team relies on you substitutes, you get the points back, and we have hope."
Li Feng actually didn't care much about Van Gundy's apology, because he knew very well that Van Gundy himself would be sober, but that would need to suffer a bigger blow, so Li Feng didn't say to Van Gundy:
"Of course, we'll get the score back."
Li Feng made such a guarantee because he had confidence in his teammates.
He dribbled and depressed his center of gravity, and did not use a lot of skill, just using his weight to suppress Jack's forward, and Li Feng gestured to his teammates as he pushed forward.
After seeing Li Fengdi's gestures, the Pelicans players began to run back and forth very actively, and now the Pelicans' running is still very distinctive, that is, Kelly and Henson went to the high position to cover Knight and Granger, and Knight and Granger ran Tai Chi around the court wreaths.
At this time, the Pelicans' bench lineup played a fake Princeton offense, and neither Kelly nor Henson had outstanding high post ability, but the Pelicans' ability to shoot the two shooters was real.
As soon as the two staggered on the baseline, when the defender was replaced, Granger was in front of Alan Anderson, and the height advantage became huge, and Li Feng quickly passed the basketball to Granger's hand.
At this time, Li Feng is doing the job of a point guard, which is to protect the ball by himself, let his teammates run tactics, and once there is an opportunity, he must ensure that the basketball can reach his teammates.
Li Feng snorted and stuffed the basketball. in Granger's hands. Granger turned into a side step very calmly at this time, standing in front of Alan Anderson, swinging his body slightly, and his footsteps moved slightly, attracting a little attention from Alan Anderson, and then Granger suddenly straightened his body and began to shoot with a very appropriate shot.
Granger shoots at a pace, no, not slowly.
If you're a little smaller. Alan Anderson jumped immediately, he must jump up first and it had no effect, but Granger's rhythm was not slow, Alan Anderson could not stick to Granger, and the only choice for people at this time was to stretch out his hand.
But this definitely didn't make a threat to Granger, and Granger directly made a soft shot and scored his first goal beautifully.
"Every time I see Granger, I have a new joy."
Barkley said pleasantly:
"There's a very soft feeling to look at this guy's shot, and that softness is at his fingertips. And in the display of the last action, it really makes people feel very comfortable. ”
Barkley praised Granger loudly, and Kenny Smith suddenly remembered something and said to Barkley:
"Hey. Barkley, you watched the last game, Knight's watch, his shooting was also fantastic. ”
"Yes. Of course I did, his catch was an amazing performance. ”
Barkley remembered the guy Brandon Knight.
"Actually, it's thanks to the Pelicans, who have old guys like Pierce. There are also stars like Granger, and new stars like Knight, the lineup is reasonable and reasonable! ”
Kenny Smith added.
The Pelicans came up and played a very crisp offense, and Hollins was still really worried here, he knew what kind of level these guys in his team were.
Nets' Jack no longer insisted on his possession this time, because he felt that he was very dangerous when he controlled the ball, and the guy opposite him would make his heart beat every time he made a shot.
Jack himself took the basketball to Alan Anderson, and asked Alan Anderson to fight with Knight, Knight's physique can't beat Alan Anderson, Alan Anderson dribbled over and wanted to force Knight, Knight looked weak on the surface but he had a lot of bad moves, just below against Alan Anderson is a small action, Alan Anderson made a very irrational move under Knight's series of small actions, that is, to shoot three points.
Alan Anderson is actually a very important role in the Nets' system, and Hollins usually uses Alan Anderson very much, this guy's mid-range shot is still extremely stable and more than 7, but Alan Anderson has a shortcoming, that is, the three-point instability dìng, a scoring guard who has played for a long time, no three-point shot, which brings a lot of pressure to the team.
Today, Alan Anderson didn't catch up with his 10-shot shooting percentage, and the shot hit the rebound with a "bang", and the basketball came back, Henson was not abused by Lopez, although Mason Plumlee was also a strong man, but Henson's side still easily earned a rebound when he was in the main position.
Once Henson got the rebound at this time, he thought that he was going to be fast, and turned around and Henson threw the ball to Li Feng.
Li Feng has a secret in his heart to deal with these people in the Nets, except for one Alan Anderson, who is over 30 years old, not Mason Plumlee, but Mason Plumlee's body is there, and he also runs.
So Van Gundy's strategy for these substitutes is one, fast, a little faster, Li Feng received the ball and turned around towards the Nets' half-rush, Jack went up to defend Li Feng is not easy to use at all, can't stand it, Li Feng's breakthrough is too heavy, and the impact is too strong.
Li Feng turned around and ran desperately by himself, Jack couldn't stop him on the side, and pulled the corner of Li Feng's clothes back and forth below, and the referee didn't see it, this one played like this, Li Feng could still bear it, and after a while, Alan Anderson came to provoke trouble, Alan Anderson suffered a lot of anger on Anthony, this time it was okay to be a Li Feng, and he came up and pulled Li Feng's clothes and arms. (To be continued......)
