Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 1243 Depressed Nene

"Yao Ming played really well today."

"Yeah, he was unstoppable today. He scored 25 points at the end of halftime. If it wasn't for him, he might not only be 8 points behind, but 18 points behind."

"It's a pity that Harden didn't play very well today. He obviously couldn't perform well against Qin, otherwise"

In the auditorium, the fans were discussing.

At this time, the first half was over, and the 76ers led by 8 points.

Originally, the point difference was more than ten points, and even led by 17 points at one point, but now it has become eight points, mainly because of Yao Ming, he played very well today, outside shooting, low attack, free throws, feeling hot Mess.

At this time, although the 76ers still lead by 8 points, the coaching staff is having a headache.

"Coach." Assistant coach Harry said, "We have to find a way in the second half, we can't let Yao Ming continue to score like this."

"However, none of us in the 5th position can fight against Yao Ming." Assistant coach Cox frowned, feeling a little helpless, "And Nene has already fouled three times."

Coach Luke was pondering, he was thinking more than the two of Harry.

Today's game made Coach Luke realize that compared to the combination of Qin Hao + Iguodala + Butler on the outside, and the substitute lineup composed of Lu Wei, Xiaoka, Sessions, etc., Nene + Speights The combination of insiders has become a disadvantage.

Of course, this is relative. In fact, the combination of Nene + Speights performed well against many teams, and both of them also have good strength.

But when facing a team like the Rockets with a center like Yao Ming, it is obvious that the 76ers' inside line is not strong enough.

What about later?
If we encounter such a team again, a team with an All-Star insider, how should we deal with it?

Like the Spurs.

Coach Luke suddenly remembered that they played against the Spurs twice this season, and they lost to each other. They lost to the Spurs' rigorous system and also lost to the inside line.

"Yes." Coach Luke finally said, "We must have a way to deal with it."

The second half begins quickly.

When the two sides returned to the court, the Rockets were still their starting lineup, while coach Luke made some adjustments for the 76ers. Instead of Speights, he played Mozkov.

It is equivalent to the same period of time after the second quarter before, sending Mozkov + Nene to form a "twin towers".

In the previous second quarter, because Nene got his third foul early, the "Twin Towers" were replaced after a while, and they failed to play a role.

At this moment, Coach Luke wants to try again.

on the field.

Qin Hao used the pick-and-roll to break through and pass the ball to Butler. Butler quickly transferred the ball to Iguodala, and Iguodala made a jumper.

The Rockets attack.

Harden came to the frontcourt and first asked for a pick-and-roll, which looked like he was going to cooperate with Yao Ming, but instead of passing it back to Yao Ming, he passed the ball to the right corner outside the three-point line and gave it to Parsons. In Sri Lanka's hands, Parsons made a three-pointer after catching the ball.

Also enter.

"It seems that the Rockets have also made some adjustments. They know that it is impossible for Brother Ming alone to defeat us. More people must stand up." Qin Hao understood, called his teammates, and launched a counterattack.

boom!
This time the 76ers failed to score. The Rockets attacked and the ball was given to Yao Ming. Mozkov rushed forward quickly, and Nene also stared at Yao Ming.

But seeing that Yao Ming is not playing with a back-up single, but a face-up frame. First, he lifts the ball up and shoots. Mozkov subconsciously stands on tiptoe to block the shot, but Yao Ming speeds up to get rid of it, and Nene rushes forward. , and finally collided with Yao Ming.

beep!
The referee blows the whistle and gives Nene a foul.

"What, f" Nene froze, almost being rude.

Did you make a mistake, how long have you been playing, less than 2 minutes, and give me another foul?
Coach Luke sighed helplessly. After all, Nene was more than ten centimeters shorter than Yao Ming. To prevent him, he had to jump. After all, he was near the basket. If he didn't jump, he would score for Yao Ming.But once he jumps up, he will be easily fouled.

"Four times." Coach Luke hesitated for a while, finally gritted his teeth, and did not replace Nene, letting him continue playing.

Nene has committed 4 fouls by now.

It's just that he didn't play a big role on the court, so Coach Luke simply didn't bother to replace him, so let him continue playing.

Of course, Coach Luke still greeted the field and asked Nene to pay attention to controlling his movements. He will definitely be targeted later. If he is not smarter, he may have to bear the fifth foul in a while.

Nene was very depressed today, but there was nothing he could do about it. Now that he had committed 4 fouls, he had to restrain his movements, and he could only hold back his depression.

In this way, Scola took advantage of it.

At this time, Mozkov was playing against Yao Ming, and Nene was playing against Scola. Scola didn't perform much today, and so far he only scored a few points.But now Nene made too many fouls, so he had to restrain his actions and gave Scola a chance.

I saw Harden break through and score the ball and gave it to Scola. Scola took the ball and dribbled a step, rushed to the basket and jumped to face Nene.

If it were any other time, if Scola, a veteran in his thirties, made such a move in front of him, Nene would be a big hat.

But now he can only raise his hand, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.

Swish!
Scola scored the ball.

In the next few rounds, Nene paid attention to restraining his movements, but the Rockets would not let go of this opportunity. They all went in the spirit of Nene, trying to draw his foul.

Once or twice was okay, but three times or four times, Nene couldn't bear it anymore.

Snapped!
beep!
As a result, he was called a foul by the referee as soon as he took the shot. Nene almost cried and shouted to the referee: "I really didn't foul this ball, it didn't touch the opponent's hand at all."

This time Nene was really wronged, but who made this the Rockets' home game, and it's not uncommon to have a home whistle.

5 fouls!

"Hey" Coach Luke shook his head, called a timeout, replaced Nene with Speights, but the effect was still not good.

Unknowingly, halfway through the third quarter, due to troubles inside, although the 76ers still maintain the lead at this time, the point difference has been reduced to 3 points.

The two sides began to switch to the rotation lineup. The 76ers still had an advantage in the rotation lineup, and gradually gained the upper hand.

But Coach Luke's expression was not the slightest bit relaxed.

Nene has fouled 5 times, Speights 3 times, and Mozkov 3 times. Several inside players have fouled a lot, and they can't guard Yao Ming. The insiders will definitely suffer in the fourth quarter.

"No, I have to think of other ways." Coach Luke spread out the tactical board, picked up a pen to write and draw on it, and stopped after a while, gritted his teeth: "I can only try."
