NBA super point guard

The toughness of Billups was vividly demonstrated in the Nuggets.

Although the boss of the Nuggets is Carmelo Anthony, in the hands of Billups, it can be said that Billups plays a very important role in the Nuggets.

Li Muhua learned a lot from Billups, including the grasp of rhythm.

Among them, the stability of Billups is also unmatched by ordinary players. It is very important to be able to curb the urge to shoot in the heart and really focus on organization.

Since the start of the game, the performance of the Nuggets has been very unstable, and the lineup has not changed much, mainly due to injuries affecting the main players.

Li Muhua thinks that the Mavericks won't have a big problem if the Nuggets are absent.

Nowitzki easily won the jump ball as Nene rested due to injury.

Li Muhua held the ball for halftime, and Billups defended.

Billups has a strong body and is not afraid to confront Li Muhua. In fact, this kind of point guard is also the most annoying. He relies on his physical advantage to run on people. After the impact, he will lose his center of gravity and lose the ball.

Nowitzki screened in a pick-and-roll, Li Muhua broke through, Billups didn't switch defenses, and continued to follow, his pace was fast, and he didn't lose his position.

Li Muhua retreated and dribbled the ball continuously, Billups pressed and found an instant space, Li Muhua directly broke through.

Billups combines offense and defense and is a very comprehensive point guard.

The evaluation of Billups in the league is very high. It is recognized that he is better than Chris Paul. The data is not obvious, the shooting is too slow and other defects have not concealed the light of Billups.

The title of civilian MVP is just that there is no bright spot from the data.

Yes, how you let Billups play explosive data, slow shots can only eat a hot pot meal, at least the open shooting rate is very high, much better than Kidd.

The Nuggets' tactical system has weakened the role of the point guard, attacking and then attacking, and the same is true for Billups, who has to wait for Anthony to leave the field to organize the team.

As for the stars, they all like to work alone, and it is annoying for point guards to organize offenses.

Li Muhua's footsteps changed and the rhythm directly broke through.

This sudden, to the basket, attracted Williams' defense, hit the ground to Nowitzki's hands, turned around and hit a hook.

Without Nene, the Nuggets are already empty inside.

When Nene is not injured, he is in charge of protecting the rim, defending, and attacking the inside. .

Williams, who is a substitute insider, averaged less than 5 minutes per game throughout the season. It is conceivable how weak the insider is.

Before the game, Carlisle's tactic was to let Nowitzki play inside.

There's no need to mess around outside, we'll play inside.

Nowitzki grinned, such a game does not waste opportunities.

The Nuggets attack, and Billups slowly enters the frontcourt.

Li Muhua stepped forward to defend, and Anthony had pulled away, giving Billups enough space for singles.

Billups continued to rely on his physical advantage to squeeze Li Muhua away, and Li Muhua interfered with Billups' rhythm with his footsteps, slowing down the space for Billups to pass the ball.

The Nuggets were caught in a positional battle.

Forbes stepped forward to cover, Billups broke through again, turned around and passed the ball, Anthony received the ball and hit a fadeaway jumper directly over Butler's head.

Li Muhua was speechless to Butler, no matter how strong Anthony was, he would at least reach out to interfere.

It doesn't matter on defense, the Mavericks attack, Li Muhua passes the ball to Butler, and Butler retrieves a ball on Anthony's head.

The Nuggets started singles, with Anthony as the main player.

Li Muhua and Billups became spectators instead. This is also where Billups was helpless. He wanted to organize the team's offense, but Anthony insisted on playing singles.

Without playing the role of point guard, the Nuggets are messy but good at playing XJB.

Anthony felt hot, 7 of 4, and hit a three-pointer, but the gap between the two sides was only 3 points.

Li Muhua was miserable under the defense of Billups. He made 4 of 1 shots and cheated the team.

In any case, Billups was a bit of a waste in the Nuggets. Some teammates are pure fakes. For example, Afflalo and Forbes can't achieve the desired tactical effect at all, but just keep standing stupidly. Learn Anthony.

The problem is that Anthony has the ability to play singles with the ball, but the level of his teammates is not enough to be a wooden stake.

This is in contrast to the Mavericks. Everyone is actively running. Li Muhua can easily find an open pass without even using a pick-and-roll.

As long as there is an open opportunity, the teammates will never waste it easily.

If he can restrain Billups from performing, Li Muhua will be considered to have completed the task.

Relatively speaking, Billups is a traditional point guard. Although Li Muhua has a three-pointer, the nature is the same. Compared with his teammates who are cheating, Li Muhua feels lucky in this regard. The overall strength of the Mavericks is very strong. The point guard is not tired to operate.

It was also a rhythm competition, and the Nuggets gradually stabilized.

Li Muhua speeded up again and started to launch a fast break. Just a few times back and forth, the Nuggets' arrangement was disrupted, and Billups continued to slow down again.

The Nuggets' singles efficiency is not low, and it did not allow the Mavericks to open the score.

In the second quarter, when the Nuggets were led by JR Smith, the balance of the stalemate was broken.

The Nuggets' No. [-] substitute is Ty Lawson, who is physically strong. He is not inferior to Billups in confrontation, and Kidd can only be abused.

Ty Lawson's speed is very fast, and he is used to the fast-playing style of the Nuggets, which is completely different from Billups' rhythm.

Very tough, Li Muhua had to be cautious when facing up.

Li Muhua didn't play by himself, but kept changing his pace, using the pick-and-roll to break through and pass to the outside line. Terry raised his hand and hit a three-pointer.

When defending, Ty Lawson's change of direction was too hurtful. Li Muhua could only take a step forward by virtue of his speed, and barely got into position.

Ty Lawson made an emergency stop for a jump shot, and Li Muhua jumped up to interfere.

Smash the frame and strike the iron.

It shows that Ty Lawson's shooting is not stable, and he can prevent breakthroughs or prevent shots.

Li Muhua and Terry formed a fast-break backcourt, kicked up the tempo, and hit 3 of 2 three-pointers. Ty Lawson was not bad at 3 of 1, but he couldn't limit the Mavericks' backcourt.

During the official timeout of the second quarter, Billups played again and replaced Ty Lawson.

Billups still dribbles the ball slowly, controlling the tempo.

The offensive end returned to the old way. JR Smith singled willfully, threw a three-pointer, and successfully undercovered the Mavericks. In this case, the Mavericks, who mainly played inside, had the upper hand.

At the end of halftime, Li Muhua scored 13 points and 9 assists.

The Mavericks 62:50, leading by 12 points.

The Nuggets have come up with a posture of fighting for their fortunes, but they still can't contain the Mavericks' offense.
