Chapter 45 Counterpoint Raymond
"A very rare goal. Bruce Qin succeeded in singles and made a layup. This is not the same as the Chinese point guard in our memory."

The on-site commentary was also a little confused about this ball.

The Bobcats attack.

Raymond Felton held the ball and advanced steadily. The speed of this advancement was not fast, but it was not slow either. The key was to move forward step by step without any confusion, which made Qin Yang feel that something was wrong.

Sure enough, just after halftime, Raymond raised the ball and threw it out.

Gerald Wallace catches a dunk.

Bang!

The fans at the scene were very suitable for cheering.

nice shot.

Qin Yang couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart.This pass was in place. When Gerald Wallace used the cover to cut, he received Raymond's pass sooner or later, and then directly cut and dunked.

No one dared to step forward at the basket.

If the ball goes forward, it is a foul, and it will be severely dunked.

But after the ball, the head coach of the Bobcats yelled, "Slow down and fall into positional warfare."

Qin Yang looked confused.

Raymond Felton was also very helpless to turn back to defend.

The Cavaliers attacked, and Qin Yang dribbled the ball across half court.

This time it was LeBron James who came out for the pick-and-roll. In fact, James is not a very good pick-and-roll partner.It's not that LeBron's skills are not good or his golf quotient is not good, but that his technical characteristics don't match Qin Yang's.

The Cavaliers have two pick-and-rolls, one is LeBron holding the ball in a high position, and the big Z pick-and-roll.

This pick-and-roll is the signature of the Cavaliers. In the starting lineup, this kind of pick-and-roll will be used many times in every game. All teams know it, but few can defend it.

The other one is the pick-and-roll by Qin Yang and others.

This pick and roll is generally based on Varejao, Mo Williams and Delonte West.Qin Yang and Varejao's pick-and-roll are normal inside and outside pick-and-rolls, causing dislocation, while Qin Yang and Mo Williams or Delonte West's pick-and-roll is to use the advantage of speed to create breakthrough and shooting space. If the defensive player hesitates a little, one of them can get an offensive opportunity.

With such a pick-and-roll, Qin Yang's passing and three-point offense were brought to the extreme.

But LeBron James' pick-and-roll is more embarrassing.

James is not allowed to shoot from the outside, so the only thing defensive players need to defend is Qin Yang's pass and three-pointer. In this case, the power of the pick-and-roll is greatly reduced.

But at this time, the boss of the team dares to have an opinion when he picks and rolls for you.

Even though Qin Yang complained in his heart, he was still very happy on the surface.

The pick-and-roll is an extremely simple and effective offensive method. In fact, whether it is European league or NBA games, the proportion of players who end the battle with the ball in singles is very low. Even for the team with the most singles in the league, the rounds in which superstars hold the ball and score in singles only account for less than 15% of the total offensive rounds.

After the pick-and-roll, Qin Yang relied on his speed to attack the basket.

Qin Yang's speed is very fast. Although he has not been well-known in the alliance, but in terms of absolute speed, he is definitely ranked first. It is only because his explosive power has not been strong enough that he is not known to everyone.

The Bobcats rushed to help defend inside, and Xiao Enmei panicked to help defend.

Qin Yang looked embarrassed.

In fact, at this time, Qin Yang can directly shoot from mid-range.

However, Qin Yang's mid-range shots are not as good as three-pointers. Instead of making such a choice, Qin Yang might as well use the pick-and-roll and shoot outside the three-point line.

Xiao Enmei's speed was not fast, but it wasn't particularly slow either. Qin Yang went directly to the basket after a little hesitation in the middle distance, and Xiao Enmei's help defense was in place.

But at this moment, Qin Yang took the ball with his right hand and threw it back hard.

LeBron James wanted to rush for a rebound, but received a pass from Qin Yang directly, took the ball and slammed it for a dunk.Emeka Okafor's speed is already slow, and LeBron has already taken advantage of the trend, so the ball cannot be defended at all.

The Cavaliers scored.

Possession transition, Bobcats attack.

Raymond Felton broke through directly after using the pick-and-roll, and Delonte West, who was on defense, was actually broken by Raymond.

After the breakthrough, Raymond attracted the defense, and then gave Sean May, who scored easily with a small hook.

Qin Yang assisted in the defense on the outside. Seeing the entire attack process, he admired Raymond very much.

Although his personal abilities cannot be compared with superstars, Raymond Felton is better than most point guards in the league. Whether it is controlling the rhythm or passing assists, they are quite standard.

With such teammates, Qin Yang has even more fighting spirit.

The Cavaliers attacked, Qin Yang and Delonte West cooperated, after attracting the defense, Qin Yang passed the ball, and Delonte scored a layup directly.The other side of LeBron attracted most of the defense, Qin Yang's breakthrough caught the opponent by surprise, and Delonte got a good opportunity to attack.

Qin Yang passed this ball a little early.

Delonte accelerated quickly, took a step forward to get the basketball, and then took advantage of the momentum to score a layup.

On the coach's bench, Larry Brown's eyes lit up when he saw this cooperation, and he couldn't help thinking: "Bruce's passing ability has not been fully utilized. If there are more small-scale passing and cutting cooperation, the team's offense should be stronger."

The Bobcats attacked and Okafor hit the iron again.

Okafor's offensive skills are not bad, but they are not superb, but they are better than rough guys like Howard.However, when Okafor entered the NBA, his performance declined year after year, and his relatively average physical fitness in the interior was fully displayed. On the contrary, Howard, who was drafted in the same year, performed better and better. In this year's regular season, Howard is one of the best candidates for MVP.

Varejao got the rebound and gave it to LeBron James.

James passed the ball to Qin Yang. Qin Yang took a look and saw that there was no chance for a quick break, so he just played positional battles slowly.

Raymond Felton is not good at field stations, so positional warfare is more beneficial to the Cavaliers.

After halftime, Qin Yang directly passed the ball to Delonte West, and then moved to receive the pass from Delonte. At this time, Gerald Wallace finally rushed over to help defend. Qin Yang did not hesitate, and directly passed the ball to LeBron James. James broke into the basket and scored a layup with Sean May.

When Gerald Wallace was defending LeBron, it was when LeBron played the worst. Qin Yang attracted the defense, and LeBron James naturally got a chance.

Judging from the field, this goal is completely a manifestation of LeBron James' personal ability.

After the breakthrough, facing Sean May's strong defense, LeBron James made a direct layup, which is difficult for others to achieve so easily and freely.

But throughout the process, Qin Yang, Varejao, and Delonte West all attracted the defense, which is also very important.
