Chapter 590: Dealing with Spider-Man's Attack!

The jump shot after the breakthrough of Martial Arts was very smooth, and the home fans in Minnesota were already surprised to see Martial Arts' goal and applauded.

After the goal, Budo quickly returned to the backcourt, and the Cavaliers didn't advance very quickly, they are a team built around the core of the interior, and the rhythm of such a team tends to revolve around the interior.

After entering the Timberwolves halfcourt, Sean Kemp made a cover for his teammates before entering the interior line, and Blevin Knight in the Cavaliers' No. 1 position also took advantage of the situation.

A dexterous little man suddenly accelerated towards the inside, Garnett didn't notice for a while, all his attention was on Sean Kemp, directly let Blevin Knight drill past him, hit the inside, and then a light layup, easily put the ball into the basket.

The sharp breakthrough immediately sent a cheer from the Cavaliers' bench, and Blevin Knight was also happy after the goal, and quickly returned to the defense after high-fives with Sean Kemp.

"Stephen, you can speed it up."

Before running to the frontcourt, Wu Dao reminded Marbury, who heard this, his eyes swept over the Cavaliers, and then nodded slightly.

The basketball came out of the backcourt and was given to Marbury, according to the meaning of martial arts, Marbury took the initiative to speed up, and in just a few seconds, Marbury took the ball into the frontcourt.

Seeing Marbury dribble the ball into the frontcourt, before Marbury changed the rhythm of the ball, Takeshi made a gesture to Garnett on the inside.

The latter understood, and quickly brought it up from the inside.

Although Garnett has some emotions about martial arts because of the matter of the team boss, he is better at one thing, he will not bring these emotions to the court. Garnett has excellent movement speed and a great shooting hand.

His high cover can not only create better space for Wu Dao to shoot, but also create good offensive conditions for himself.

As Garnett lifted up, Takedo was also a back, quickly sticking to Cedric Henderson, and as soon as his hand was stretched, Marbury also quickly gave the ball to Takemi's hands.

After the ball, Marbury quickly went down, and at the same time, Garnett's cover was also in place, Takedo turned around, and quickly shook off Cedric Henderson and crossed the three-point line with Garnett's cover, and when the opponent blocked towards Martial Arts, Martial Arts grabbed the ball with one hand and quickly hit the ground towards the middle distance.

"Bang!"

The basketball slammed to the floor and went straight into the hands of Marbury, who took the ball, made a layup on Blevine Knight's pursuit, and sent the ball to the basket.

However, the next second when the basketball began to rise, the 221cm Zajunas Ilgoskas suddenly flashed out quickly from the side, slapped directly on the basketball, and knocked the basketball away.

“!!!”

Marbury saw Zajunas Ilgoskas, who was "covering the sky and the sun", and his face showed a little astonishment. When he went to the basket, he used a small throw, after all, it was a frontal basket, and Marbury knew that he had some disadvantages.

But what he didn't expect was that the opponent's defensive height was so high that small throws could be stopped.

"Stephen, pick up the ball!"

Garnett turned around and wanted to get the ball, but the experienced Sean Camp was in a better position than him, and he was not in a hurry to get the ball, the first time was to go to Caganette, and then quickly rushed towards the basketball and took the ball in his hand.

As soon as the basketball was in his hands, Sean Camp grabbed the ball with both hands and protected it in the middle.

Seeing this scene, the Timberwolves also lost the idea of taking the ball back in the front court, and quickly turned back to defend.

The Cavaliers turned around and found Zajunas Ilgoskas on the inside, a player who had a huge height advantage against Cherokee Parkes, but when he received the basketball, he was firmly stuck by Cherokee Parkes, who was more than ten centimeters shorter than him, and couldn't play at all.

After dribbling on the spot for two seconds, Tom tried to wrap it up, but Zajunas Ilgoskas got the ball out of the way to the big open Vesley Person, who caught the ball and threw it straight into the basket.

"Huh?"

"It seems that this Spider-Man who looks up to the knight a little."

"Although he is more than 220cm tall, he is not on the same level as a center forward of Da Yao's level at all."

"Although he is tall, he is not heavy, and his lateral movement speed is good, but his ability to combine man and ball is very average."

"The strength is also very weak, and it can't even resist Cherokee."

"It's okay to defend, but not to attack."

Seeing the knight's attack in this round, Wu Dao briefly analyzed the knight's big center in his heart.

As Takemichi thought, you simply can't expect a center forward who is 221cm tall and weighs 108kg to be able to fight against it.

In the eyes of Martial Arts, Cherokee Parks himself is a "crispy" center who is "popular with everyone", a 211cm tall man, but he weighs only 107kg, which is about the same as Martial Arts, a few centimeters shorter than the No. 3 position.

However, the 221cm Zajunas Ilgoskas weighs only 108kg, and his skeleton height is taller than that of both Budo and Cherokee Parkes, but his weight is about the same as them, which also means that his lower game is definitely not as stable as Wudo.

Among the players who are also more than 220cm tall, such as the well-known Da Yao, in the early days of entering the league, the weight shown on the physical test data was 134kg

And when Da Yao experienced a season in the NBA, his weight reached 140kg, and at his peak it exceeded 150kg, not to mention when his body was out of shape after retirement.

Yao Ming, who first entered the league, has a record height of 227cm, although he is 6cm taller than Zhajunas Ilgoskas, but the weight difference between the two is 26kg, more than 50 pounds.

Even if you haven't watched the game of these two people, just looking at the physical test data, you can actually imagine the gap between these two players in terms of physical confrontation.

Oh, by the way, Wembanyama, who was born in 00, is 224cm tall and weighs only 95kg when he first joined the alliance, but Wembanyama and Zajunas Ilgoskas have different functions, and they are fast~

Quickly analyzing the inside line of the Cavaliers in his mind, Wu Dao also quickly entered the front court.

Glancing at the opponent's thin and tall figure, the martial artist raised his hand and quickly asked Marbury, who was holding the ball into the front court.

Glancing at this position of Martial Arts, Marbury did not hesitate, quickly passed the ball out, and after the ball, he was about to go down, when he saw Martial Arts waved his hand towards him and signaled to pull it away.

At the same time, Wu Dao's eyes were also looking at Garnett on the inside line, and Garnett, who noticed that Wu Dao's gaze didn't need Wu Dao's reminder at all, quickly raised his position, ran towards Wu Dao, and stood diagonally behind Cedric Henderson.

Martial arts who held the ball changed hands in a simple crotch in disguise, and then quickly exploded the ball and rushed forward, while his body was on Cedric Henderson, Martial Arts was faster, and with Garnett's cover, he quickly entered the interior line.

Sean Kemp, who was originally guarding the basket with his teammates, had already followed Garnett when he mentioned the high position, and the Cavaliers studied the Timberwolves before the game and knew that Garnett had a good mid-range shooting ability, and Sean Kemp did not give Garnett a chance to shoot in the open position when he was defending.

Zajunas Ilgoskas saw the martial arts that broke into the inside line, and immediately made up for it, but in the face of Zajunas Ilgoskas, who came up to make up for the defense, the martial arts had no intention of slowing down and avoiding at all, and after closing the ball, he quickly took two big steps and jumped up directly in the direction of the basket.

"Bang !!"

Martial Arts, which was rapidly gliding towards the basket, crashed into Zajunas Ilgoskas's body in mid-air, and the huge force directly penetrated Zajunas Ilgoskas's "ribs", causing him to fall backwards.

Takemichi grabbed the ball with one hand, and after the confrontation, his body was in the air, maintaining the posture of holding the ball and projecting, and after Zajunas Ilgoskas was overheaded, Takedo quickly threw the ball.

The basketball grazed the rebound and landed in the basket with a crisp sound.

Zajunas Ilgoskas, who landed quickly, couldn't offset the impact of the martial arts attack basket for a while, and "Wow" took three steps back in a row before he barely stood firm.

Seeing the martial arts goal, a burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the stands of the target center arena. Timberwolves fans raised their arms and chanted as they poured into the court.

Martial Arts' tough way of scoring goals can easily ignite the enthusiasm of the home fans.

After the goal, Wu Dao's gaze quickly swept over Zajunas Ilgoskas, revealing a look that was indeed so.

In the NBA league in the 90s, the interior players were darker than the other, stronger than the other, and all of them were the type with explosive talent.

"Bamboo pole" players like Zajunas Ilgoskas are rare.

After entering the alliance, Wudao is still quite cautious in the choice of offense, and for those who have a big black guard inside, Wudao will only find an opportunity to break in, and generally will not use this style of play.

Don't look at his weight close to 110kg, he can crush the vast majority of players in the same position in terms of strength, but that is on the No. 3 position, against the traditional No. 5 position, simply fighting with the opponent's strength, martial arts will not get any benefit at all.

That is, the player Zajunas Ilgoskas is a Lithuanian, if he is a native of the United States, he will not be as thin as he is now.

Wu Dao, who scored a goal easily, also set his sights on Zajunas Ilgoskas, and he planned to open up the situation from this player!

In the next few minutes of the first quarter, Wu Dao accounted for the vast majority of the team's shooting opportunities, but it was a little different from the previous game, today's game against the Cavaliers, Wu Dao did not rely on his personal ability to name Cedric Henderson on the outside.

Takedo often calls Garnett out to block on the offensive end, of course, his main purpose is not because he can't break through Cedric Henderson's defense, but simply because Takedo needs Garnett's high cover to lure Sean Camp out of the interior line, so as to get into the interior line and get a one-on-one chance with Zajunas Ilgoskas.

Takemi's intentions, after he scored several goals in a row against the defense of Zajunas Ilgoskas, were detected by the rest of the Cavaliers, Sean Kemp under the instruction of the team's coach, strengthened the protection of the interior line, and Garnett's transfer did not work in the next few rounds.

Sean Kemp's attention to Martial Dao's tilt did have some impact on Martial Dao's offense.

But for the Timberwolves' overall offense, Sean Kemp's adjustments didn't help.

When the knight's attention was on Wu Dao's body, Garnett and others got a good opportunity to attack.

In this regard, Wu Dao did not skimp on his ball possession, and shared the ball in the second half of the first quarter.

Garnett got more projection opportunities, and Marbury also got a few singles Blevin Knight singles, although Marbury is not tall in this league, but he only needs to be taller than Blevin Knight!

Under the threat of Martial Arts' sudden break, the direction of the Cavaliers was penetrated by the Timberwolves.

However, under the offense of the Timberwolves, the Cavaliers were still able to barely gain a foothold, and Sean Kemp and the Cavaliers' 1/2 swing Vesley Persson stepped up when the team was in crisis.

Veesley Person frequently runs out of space under Tom's defense and scores inside. Although Cherokee Parks is not inferior to Zajunas Ilgoskas in terms of strength, the opponent has an absolute height advantage after all, and on the offensive end, Cherokee Parks needs to focus most of his energy on his opponent and has no way to help Tom.

Garnett is the same thing, the Rainman's ability to go under the basket is quite strong, Garnet especially said that he is helping his teammates, and it is already very difficult to deal with Sean Camp alone, but whenever he tries to wrap up, Vesley Person, who has excellent vision, can give the ball to Sean Kemp's hands as soon as possible.

In fact, under the leadership of Wesley Persson and Sean Kemp, the Timberwolves have gained a foothold in the stormy offense.

At 31:26, the Cavaliers trailed the Timberwolves by only five points after the first quarter.

Although the team still has the advantage, Coach Philip is very unhappy with the team's performance.

Once upon a time, when they faced opponents like the Lakers, they were able to pull away a considerable amount of score in the first quarter.

But in the face of a young team like the Cavaliers, they can still only open up a 5-point difference, which is not the effect that Philip wants to see.

Wudao had 10 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter, although the scoring was not as "explosive" as in the previous games, but the outstanding performance still received countless cheers for himself.

At the end of the first quarter, both the Timberwolves and Cavaliers switched to bench lineups.

The smooth flow of the first quarter did not carry over in the second quarter.

Among the Cavaliers' bench is a center named Vitaly Portapenco, who was the 12th pick in the first round last '96, and as soon as this guy came up, he blew up Stanley Roberts, the backup center on the Timberwolves' side.

The second quarter of the Timberwolves suffered a tragic Waterloo.
