NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 52 [Calm prediction! 】

Lakers attack!
Vujacic sent the ball to Lu Yusheng from the baseline.

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball past halftime!

According to the established tactics, Lu Yusheng handed the ball to Luke Walton after halftime.

He will support in the low position and play the 'triangle offense' tactic.

Wharton holds the ball, Lu Yusheng and other teammates cover alternately!
The Suns still adhere to their defensive principles, and the pick-and-roll will be replaced.

Therefore, it is still difficult for other Lakers teammates to run out of space.

Seeing that time was running out, Walton could only dribble with his back and hit the inside.

But he couldn't beat Marion alone at all, and the back hit was just a feint, just to confuse the Suns, attract the defense for his teammates, and let his teammates continue to run.

The Lakers know this.

But the problem is, the Suns know better.

So the Suns didn't have anyone to help defend.

Wharton was somewhat embarrassed, so he could only bite the bullet and punch in...

Seeing that the tactics were about to kill him, Lu Yusheng hurriedly tried to get rid of Nash's defense.

Lu Yusheng is about the same height as Nash, but he is better than Nash in stature and strength (most NBA players are better than Nash in these two points).

He saw the opportunity, nudged Nash, gave himself an acceleration, and at the same time got rid of Nash, and with Bynum's cover, he quickly got out of the three-point line!
The 24-second shot clock is about to end!

Wharton was hit hard by Marion, and was worrying about how to deal with the ball, when he suddenly saw Lu Yusheng coming out of his pocket, he hurriedly threw the ball out!
Lu Yusheng caught the ball and raised his hand to shoot!

beep~
When the time came, there was no time to shoot at all.

The Lakers made an offensive violation and the Suns served.The fans at the scene sighed.

Nash held the ball, and Lu Yusheng stepped forward to defend.

Lu Yusheng did not lead the defense at halftime like Smush Parker did.

Because it was completely unnecessary, the Suns' positional battles basically consisted of Nash initiating pick-and-rolls. The time required for the offensive round was not too much, and the delayed time was almost useless. It was just a waste of his physical strength.

Sure enough, after Nash dribbled the ball across half court, Marion immediately stepped forward to pick and roll for Nash!

Although Lu Yusheng has been observing the off-court for more than a quarter, plus watching the sun video before the game to study their tactics.

Lu Yusheng has long been familiar with the Suns' pick-and-roll tactics, but familiarity is familiarity, but it is not so easy to defend against it.

It's like you know that Jordan is going to shoot and Iverson is going to the right, but you know it's useless, you still can't guard against it.

But Lu Yusheng has an advantage. The Lakers team in the summer league has similar positional tactics to the Suns. They also use Lu Yusheng and other teammates to play pick-and-roll tactics. Therefore, Lu Yusheng has a better understanding of this tactic and grasps the essence of this tactic. clear.

Marion's generous body blocked Lu Yu's life and death, and gave Nash an excellent pick-and-roll!

After blocking, Marion cut directly to the basket!
According to the established tactics before the game, Lu Yusheng and Wharton still stepped forward to double-team Nash and block Nash's passing route!
Lu Yusheng felt that he and Wharton's siege was perfect. From Lu Yusheng's point of view, there was no room for Nash to pass the ball!

So Nash can only continue to dribble, or pass the ball to other teammates other than Marion.

Therefore, although Lu Yusheng was flanking Nash, he did not fully focus on Nash. He was still observing the running positions of other Suns teammates from the corner of his eye!
suddenly!

Lu Yusheng noticed from the corner of his eye that Lagabel used Stoudemire's pick-and-roll to get out of the open spot!

This vacancy is fleeting!

Because Vujacic has bypassed the pick-and-roll players and rushed back and forth!
Therefore, the opportunity is only at this moment of lightning and flint. When the pass is passed, Lagabel can make a sudden shot, or attract supplementary defenses, and create open opportunities for Stoudemire at the basket!
An ordinary point guard must not be able to pass this ball, because the angle is too tricky, separated by two Lakers players!
The opportunity is fleeting, and you need superb ground-strike skills to pass it on!
But Lu Yusheng believed that Nash would definitely pass it on!
He is Nash and definitely has this ability.

Just like Nash's exquisite pass to the ground at the beginning of the game, Lu Yusheng could see the tricky pass line at the first time, and Nash did it, and it was very natural.

Therefore, Lu Yusheng was ready to intercept the pass at any time.

Lu Yusheng also saw the passing angle, after all, he had Stockton's support in his mind.

That is also a very weird broken line!

Nash raised his hand suddenly!

However, the intention of this pass was obviously in the direction of Marion!

Luke Wharton's center of gravity has subconsciously moved in the direction of Marion.

For a moment, Lu Yusheng was very sober!
This must be a fake move!
Therefore, when Wharton subconsciously reached out to interfere in that direction, Lu Yusheng did not move at all.

Sure enough, Lu Yusheng's guess was right, it was a fake move!
The moment Nash raised his hand, he quickly lowered his wrist, hit the ground, and passed it in the direction of Lagabel! !

Moreover, that broken line was exactly the same as what Lu Yusheng saw in his eyes!
Lu Yusheng hurriedly cut it off!

The basketball bounced off the ground, touched Lu Yusheng's fingertips, and bounced towards Lagabel at high speed!

!!!

Although Lu Yusheng predicted it, he only touched it with his fingertips. Although the ball was decelerated, this deceleration did not affect the smooth passing of the ball to Lagabel!
Lagabel received the ball near the free throw line. There was no one in front of him. He opened his hand and made a fake shot.

The ball was passed to Stoudemire, who was unguarded under the basket, and the Suns scored again!

The commentator Vince Kane exclaimed again and again, "It's wonderful! It's really wonderful! Nash's pass is like a magic show! It's not that the Lakers' defense is not good. To be honest, the Lakers' defense this time It's great, but they still can't limit Nash's pass, is this the charm of MVP? It's wonderful! Please forgive me, because I can't find a better word to describe this exquisite pass!"

Isiah Thomas continued, "The key to this game has dedicated several such passes. The Lakers' back line is like a stake in front of Nash. As I said earlier, Zen Master's stupid switch People just make it easier for Nash to humiliate them."

Isiah Thomas is just black for the sake of black. If the fans at the scene couldn't understand the ball just now, it is understandable, but as a historical point guard, it is absolutely impossible for him not to see it. Nash's ball was almost blocked by Lu Yusheng.

Even Nash himself couldn't help but take another look at the rookie in front of him.

In the instant of lightning and flint just now, this kid was not deceived by his realistic fake movements, but directly predicted his passing route and made a move to intercept it.

Unlikely, Nash decided in his heart that he must have not reacted, that's why he didn't eat his fake action.

Besides, as a rookie, it is absolutely impossible for him to predict his pass.

Absolutely impossible, the little boss must be an idiot.

Lakers possession.

Lu Yusheng dribbled the ball forward!
