Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 619
Entering the second half, Wall replaced Arenas as the starter in the second half. Coach Saunders had no confidence in Arenas.

Although Wall was suppressed by Qin Hao in the first half, but apart from this, Wall actually played very well in the first half, with 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 6 assists.

So in the second half, Coach Sanders asked Wall to start, hoping that he could play better. He didn't want to just give up the game. Being 10 points behind is not 30 points behind.

The 76ers here.

Qin Hao sat on the bench, and Coach Collins sent Holiday, Iguodala, Brand, Speights, and Hawes.

The order of playing in the NBA is particular. Playing at the beginning of a game is considered a starter, and playing at the beginning of the second half is actually considered a starter in the second half.

Generally, nba teams will send starters at the beginning of the second half. This is not just an unspoken rule, but also an arrangement summed up by nba teams' experience.

During the intermission, the main players got enough rest. At the beginning of the second half, both sides will definitely come up with the best lineup to make a good start for the second half. The team behind the score hopes to catch up with the score, and the team with the lead The team hopes to widen the gap
In short, this is an important time node.

For example, the Wizards let Wall start in the second half, which has actually sent a message that Wall may replace Arenas.

If Coach Collins starts Qin Hao in the second half, it will also make others guess that he is going to straighten Qin Hao and let Qin Hao replace Holiday in the starting game.

But Coach Collins didn't have this idea, so even if he saw Wall playing, he still put Qin Hao on the bench and Holiday started.

Holiday is also aware of this, so he worked extra hard and performed well. He is not in the same style as Wall, but with his own experience and skills, he did not fall into a disadvantage.

It's just that after entering the second half, McGee and Blatche suddenly broke out on the offensive end. Under Wall's organization, McGee and Blatche got a lot of scoring opportunities, and the two did a very good job in rebound protection. Excellent, the Wizards quickly reversed the situation, took the initiative, and narrowed the point difference.

"Rebound!" Coach Collins sighed, and it became a pain in his heart.

This is the third quarter, McGee has got 12 rebounds, Blatche got 9 rebounds, the two got 21 rebounds in total.

On the other hand, for the 76ers, Hawes grabbed 4 of the two starters and Speights grabbed 5, for a total of nine rebounds, less than half of others.

This gap makes Coach Collins want to scold his mother.

"Coach." Assistant Luke said, "Let Qin Shang go."

Coach Collins frowned and thought about it, finally nodded and said: "Okay, call a timeout, let's make a substitution and let Qin get ready to play."

The team needs to protect rebounds, people who need to grab rebounds, not to mention Hawes and Speights on the field, this is what they do, Brand can also grab rebounds, but they can't grab McGee and Blatche , Iguodala is mainly responsible for scoring today, and he doesn't get many rebounds.

So it is necessary to replace Qin Hao. After all, Qin Hao's rebounding ability is better than Holiday's, and it does not delay the team's organization and operation.

The 76ers requested a timeout and replaced Qin Hao.

When Qin Hao returned to the court and faced Wall again, all Wizards fans frowned. Wall and Holiday were still on par, and Wall could even have the upper hand in some aspects, but against Qin Hao It won't work.

This is true.

When Qin Hao returned to the court, the 76ers quickly stabilized the situation. Qin Hao's suppression of Wall and his rebounding ability can all help the 76ers.

In the next few minutes, the 76ers gradually regained the initiative and gained the upper hand, but by the end of the third quarter, the point difference was still narrowed to 6 points.

Entering the last quarter, Holiday went first and was replaced after 4 minutes.

Holiday played a total of 27 minutes today, while Qin Hao has played 24 minutes at this time, and his playing time today will definitely be longer than Holiday.

"The ball." Qin Hao ran back to get the ball, glanced at the situation on the court, and then called for a pick-and-roll, forming a switch, and it became McGee to defend him.

This is an opportunity. Qin Hao waved his hand, motioning his teammates to pull away. He singled out McGee, making continuous cross steps, as if he was about to break through.McGee was afraid of Qin Hao's speed, so he hurriedly took a step back when he saw this, keeping a distance from Qin Hao to allow him to react.

But at this moment, Qin Hao suddenly stopped.

"Not good." McGee stepped forward subconsciously, and had no time to jump up, so he had to raise his hand.

Swish!
With a soft sound, the ball goes in.

This is a typical small fight, the main reason is that Qin Hao's speed is too fast, once McGee gets too close, Qin Hao can pass him in one step, but if he is far away, Qin Hao directly shoots,
One minute later, Qin Hao named McGee again.

This time Qin Hao still seemed to make a breakthrough, and then retreated suddenly. With experience, McGee rushed forward immediately and jumped up to block the block.

"Not good." But as soon as he jumped up, McGee knew he had been fooled.

Qin Hao didn't make a shot, it was just a fake move, he jumped up and then leaned on him, the referee whistled, and Qin Hao also threw the ball.

Swish!
The ball goes in.

This is a 2+1, and the most important thing is that this is McGee's fifth foul.

Today, McGee has got 15 rebounds, in addition to 16 points, is the inside pillar of the Wizards, and he committed 5 fouls, which is too bad for the Wizards.

Coach Sanders' face turned black, and he called a timeout immediately, but he didn't dare to replace McGee. At this time, there were a few minutes left in the game, and the team was still behind, so McGee had to rely on McGee for rebounds.

So he can only tell McGee to pay attention to his actions and not to foul again, after all, he will be sent off one more time.

"Hey." Coach Sanders waved his hand and watched the players walk onto the court, but he was very depressed in his heart. "This ball was definitely premeditated, and he deliberately fouled McGee. We still underestimated him. This kid is not only skilled. Comprehensive and experienced, he doesn't look like a rookie at all." He looked at Wall and had to admit that at least now Wall is indeed not as good as Qin Hao.

McGee is very careful to protect himself.

But in this way, McGee can only be restrained no matter on the offensive or defensive end, and his effect is greatly reduced.

For the 76ers, Qin Hao began to control the tempo. Now they have controlled the tempo on the court. As long as they play steadily, this game can be won.

In the last few minutes, Iguodala scored consecutively, showing what the boss of the team should be. He scored 6 points alone, helping the 76ers to stabilize their lead and continue to the end.
