NBA super point guard

Chapter 397 Happy Competition

Chandler grabs the rebound.

The Mavericks did not play a fast break, and Chandler handed the ball to Li Muhua after protecting the ball.

The teammates quickly started to move, but Li Muhua did not rush to pass the ball, but hung it to Butler after a gap.

With this ball, Butler planned to play singles by himself, the Mavericks players quickly pulled away, and Butler turned around and rushed directly to the basket.

Being double-teamed by Gordon Hayward and Kirilenko at the same time, Butler turned around and shot a jumper after dribbling, and threw the ball under the defense of the two, but it was a pity that he hit the iron.

Butler's helplessness signaled to his teammates that the opportunity just now was not good.

This made Li Muhua very speechless. If the opportunity is not good, he can choose to pass the ball. When Kirilenko double-teamed just now, Chandler had already moved to the other side of the backboard.

In fact, there were two options at the time. One was to pass the ball to Chandler for singles, and the other was for Chandler to provide support. Butler could cut directly from outside the paint.

It's just that Butler's mind is a bit off. As the main offensive force, as long as he gets the ball and gets up, he can't care about anything.

Nowitzki has always maintained a threat to the inside. In this case, the Jazz gradually loosened their defense on the inside. If the main inside players are in danger of fouling, they will not be able to play in the future, and the defensive intensity should be reduced appropriately.

There are not many rotation players available for the Jazz, and for most teams in the league, the inside is still a scarce resource.

As soon as the defensive strength dropped, the game looked a lot better.

The Jazz mainly relied on Deron's performance. Similarly, the Mavericks put the offensive ball on Nowitzki's side. Li Muhua strictly followed the tactical requirements and kept feeding the inside. And at the top of the arc, Stevenson floated in the bottom corner.

This offensive posture forced the Jazz to expand their defense.

The rhythm competition between the two teams was evenly matched.

Compared with offensive efficiency, the Mavericks have a great advantage. Deron became a singles maniac, with a shooting percentage of [-]%, but the Jazz are still behind.

At the end of the first quarter, the Mavericks 34:19, the gap between the two sides came to 15 points.

The game was overwhelmed in the first quarter, which no one expected beforehand.

During the off-court break, Nowitzki couldn't stop panting, and the confrontation at the basket was quite fierce, which made the old driver very tired.

"After a while, if my physical strength can't keep up, I'll hand the ball to your outside hands!"

Nowitzki kept wiping his sweat, and was not satisfied with Butler's performance: "Caron, you have to play, otherwise the pressure on my side will be too great!"

Li Muhua looked over, but Butler nodded gloomily.

In the last few games, Butler's contribution has been really limited. I don't know if it's because of the feel or other reasons, but his state is very poor.

Even the goals that are usually guaranteed to be scored are not confident at the moment.

Instead, it gave Marion a chance. During the substitute period, Marion was all-round offensive and defensive, whether with the ball or without the ball, he could help Nowitzki clear the siege.

However, the score gap is too large, and the Mavericks are not too anxious.

The main reason is that Deron is too pitiful. The Jazz's tactics are already well-known in the league. As long as they don't play pick-and-rolls, the team is basically cold.

"Man, let's let go and attack later. I asked Jason just now. He won't be playing for the time being. I guess it's because he played for a long time in the last game!"

Terry smiled from the side, as long as he cooperates with Li Muhua, he can basically make waves, and he can also play fast breaks, and the jet can fly again.

Coach Carlisle didn't say anything. It seems that Kidd has almost communicated with the head coach.

This is also a point of humanization of the Mavericks. The head coach is not one-sided. The two assistants and Kidd can make suggestions, and when appropriate, they can also make decisions for the head coach. This is simply impossible for other teams. things.

It can only show that Coach Carlisle's coaching style is still very popular with the players.

Judging from the efficiency of the first quarter, the Mavericks can already speed up, expand their advantages and strive to clock in and get off work early.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Li Muhua assisted Terry to start playing fast.

Terry made a quick layup after an air cut, and Nowitzki and Haywood made a double-tower screen under the basket.

If there is help from the inside, it is simply telling the opponent that I just want to rush to the basket to attack. In this case, the Jazz can't defend at all.

Kirilenko's excellent defensive assistance does not mean that he can defend everyone at once.

Especially after the Mavericks speeded up the pace, the Jazz's slow speed was infinitely magnified.

Deron and Miles fired again and again, barely maintaining the score.

In this quarter, the Mavericks once again led by three points.

The other players are not strong enough, and Deron's thigh can't move it even if he wants to.

Accustomed to the changes after the pick-and-roll, the Jazz players who are familiar with tactics in such a singles were completely confused.

At the end of the first half, the Mavericks led by 18 points.

Cuban rarely entered the locker room to high-five the players: "Guys, you did a great job defending our home court, and at the same time, we must show the visiting soldiers that we are good. Kick Utah's ass hard! "

The players laughed and responded, no problem, BOSS.

Being able to play so heartily at home, as the boss, Cuban felt a little itchy, but unfortunately he is just a boss, he can be on the court during training, his poor athletic ability is not enough for the game, he had no choice but to shoot in the locker room The ball starts to pass through the crotch.

"In the third quarter, pay attention to the cooperation of the inside and outside. If Deron Williams is still singles, I mean as long as the pressure is appropriate. LI, Jason, you two in the first position can grasp this rhythm. As for For other points, we strive to strangle them to death!"

Carlisle appeared just before the end of the break, and told him what to pay attention to.

Kidd and Terry looked at each other.

Terry has already scored 10 points in the second quarter. According to this situation, Terry may score 20+ points today. This is still in front of the Jazz. Coach Carlisle’s meaning is very clear. Waves, I will not stop them, but the defense must be done well.

The defense of outside players depends on the cooperation of Kidd and Terry.

The third quarter begins.

Kidd came on, replacing Li Muhua.

The defensive player against Kidd is Price, also a young player, a black guy who looks frizzy, not as stable as the old demon.

Kidd is happiest playing this kind of happy game, at least it can show the value of a veteran, especially when he is playing, he can still show his prestige.

Poor Price, who just replaced Deron during the substitute period, met Lao Yao, a careless old man, and was abused by Kidd over and over again.

It wasn't over yet, Terry and Kidd went straight up and swung the young man almost to tears.

"Welcome to the NBA!"

After Terry succeeded in singles again, he sprayed the young man extremely arrogantly.
