Chapter 288 Killing the Nuggets Insider Again

Beep!The referee's whistle sounded again, and this time the gesture pointed to the culprit, Kenyon Martin!

"Oh ho ho ho!..." The fans were very happy because they had seen Kenyon Martin walking to the Nuggets' bench.

At this time, just 5 minutes into the first quarter, Kenyon Martin had already fouled twice, and not only him, but Marcus Camby also had a foul.

They are all Hu!It was all done with his coquettish Eurostep after this guy rushed in!
The Eurostep is actually a simple basketball technique that many people can do.However, in a fiercely confrontational league like the NBA, there are really not many players who can really play well.There is no other reason. The confrontation here is too strong. When you drift sideways, if you don’t have strong body control ability, flexibility, and small strength, you will be easily injured by your opponent.The ankles and knees in particular are under a lot of pressure, they are all important parts, so without a steel body, do less.

What's more, the kind of European step that Lao Hu is using now deliberately slows down the rhythm in order to draw fouls from the opponent.

To be honest, this is not Lao Hu's original creation. The elegant layups of Ginobili and Wade are nearby, and James Harden with a beard like a 'terrorist' is far away.

"The European step of the guy with the beard is really slow, but I don't know if his 'little ha' is really like a door latch." The old Hu was still in the mood to think about some strange questions before making a free throw. As for Of course, this door latch is not the one in ancient my country.

Swish!Swish!After two free throws were made steadily, the Knicks also led their opponents by 13 points 9 to 4.

Kenyon Martin went off, and George Karl sent Brazilian Nene Hilario. This is a power forward who is definitely not inferior to Martin, and even his subsequent development is much better than that of the horse champion.

From this point of view, Lao Hu's foul-making tactics seem to have little effect.From the book point of view, there is no shortage of strong inside players in the Nuggets lineup. Even if Martin is off, there are Nene and Najera. Carmelo Anthony can also play power forward.

That's right!Indeed, the Nuggets' interior configuration is quite good, and the depth of the bench is also sufficient.

However, Lao Hu's goal is actually not a power forward, but center Camby!

As for the center, the Nuggets are quite tight. In fact, in most cases, after Camby is off the court, Nene will play center.Although Nene is a standard power forward, he is also capable of being a center, but this also shows a problem, that is, the Nuggets' interior looks luxurious, but there is no real center.

That's right, that's it.Even Marcus Camby, a center, was actually a half-way monk, and he was transformed into a center by George Karl. When he was drafted in 96, he made it very clear that he was a power forward.

The only one on the Nuggets that counts as a true center is a guy named Steven Hunter.Does anyone have any impression of this person?Anyway, Lao Hu has no impression at all.

In addition to making extras in the trade, this guy made fouls on the court. The most famous one was that he injured Yaoming in 05. After that, he traveled in various cities in the NBA.

Therefore, Camby is Lao Hu's goal, the ultimate goal!

However, the problems facing the Knicks now seem to be defensive first.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhh..." the fans were booing, because they saw Anthony catch the ball when he hit and ran all over the field.

The position is at a 45-degree angle, which is Anthony's favorite position. Of course, many strikers like it very much.

coming!After a sigma step, Anthony took a tentative step. This is a technique similar to that of Nowitzki of the Mavericks. Through this technique, Anthony got the space he wanted.

At this time, it was Ah Q who was defending 'Melon', and he had to give up some space, because now Anthony assumed a 'three-threat' posture.Like passing, like breakthrough, and like shooting!

"It's a shot!" This was what Lao Hu said in his heart, he didn't say anything to remind Ah Q, because doing so would be superfluous.On the basketball court, it's best not to talk about technical issues, especially in the NBA, where players are experts in this area.

Swish!It was really a shot, but Ah Q couldn't help it. 13 to 12 The Knicks have only a 1-point lead.

Even with this ball, Anthony's final shot was not a receding shot like Nowitzki's, he was a direct pull.But Ah Q still had no choice, because 'Melon' had a stronger body and his shots were faster!
Seeing this scene, Lao Hu immediately thought of Balkman, this 'rookie' performed very well against 'Melo' last season...

Just when Lao Huan was thinking about this rookie, coach Torto seemed to have a telepathy, and immediately made a substitution. Exit Ah Q and enter Balkman.

Yes, it seems that Coach Toto is becoming more and more like a coach.

People will grow, how can I say that I have been a coach for a season, and it is quite successful!
The reason why Nate was kept was to let him continue to deal with Iverson, and Ah Q could just come down and take a break, and he could even play as a surprise soldier during the substitute time.Lao Tuo's calculations were very precise, and this substitution was really his stroke of genius.

However, in this way, the Knicks' offense has one less option, and Balkman has almost no desire to attack, although he is not completely without scoring ability.

However, Lao Hu now has another choice, and he continued his tactic of killing the Nuggets inside.

Give it to Curry and let him beat Camby!

That's right, that's the way it is. You can't let Lao Hu do the fouls alone, how tiring it is!
The Knicks immediately began to implement the No. [-] tactic, and everyone pulled away and handed it to Curry.

After the little shark received the ball, without further ado, he pouted his big butt and immediately sat down towards the basket.This time, it really made Marcus Camby very uncomfortable, and he backed up again and again, quickly giving way to Curry.

boom!Swish!Curry easily scored two points.

"Oh ho ho ho!..." Shots like this are not seen very often, because the cooperation between Curry and Lao Hu is getting better and better, and they can often hit breakthrough points or cooperate with lobs.Therefore, fans miss this bulldozer style of play quite a lot.

It seems that the little shark played easily, but in fact Camby also tried to block Curry's shot. However, Curry's movements are faster, and his current speed has been greatly improved.

The reason why Camby will make room is that Camby is not a center who relies on physical strength to eat.Originally, from the beginning, Camby was a power forward, and he was that kind of lanky type.

As for the best defense the year before last, to be honest, it just reflected Camby's excellent blocking ability.As for letting him get stuck in the paint, that's beyond what he can do.

"Good shot! Curry finally used his housekeeping skills, and the Knicks seem to be in control of the game!" Mike Brien suddenly said, praising Curry.

"If this round is defended, the Knicks will be able to take the initiative!" This time, Frazier became the one who cherished his words like gold.

That's right, as long as the Knicks defend against the opponent's offense now, they can indeed take the initiative when they open up the situation inside.However, the Nuggets' offense is not so easy to defend. Anthony is here again, and he is asking for the ball!
Facing Balkman, Anthony has always wanted to teach this rookie a good lesson. Last season, "Melon" really lost a lot of face in front of the "rookie".

Snapped! As soon as 'Melon' received the ball, he immediately put up a post-up singles posture, and the other Nuggets were also very interested, and immediately opened up space for Anthony.

boom!There is the sound of dribbling and the sound of muscles colliding.

'Melo' pressed his shoulder against Balkman's chest very forcefully, but Balkman didn't show weakness, he went forward very forcefully.It seems that this guy is very conscious, since he wants to eat his defense, he can't back down.

Bang, bang hit twice more, but Melo didn't seem to get any closer to the rim.

Anthony and Balkman are very tough in confrontation, probably because of the conflict between the two last season.The point is that the NBA suspension put them both, of course, most of the people in that conflict didn't get a chance to get revenge, especially Anthony directly missed the second meeting between the Nuggets and the Knicks, so...

Beep!Therefore, the referee will also pay attention to them!
After staring at them for a long time, seeing that something was wrong with these two guys, the referee immediately jumped out and blew the whistle.

Foul by both sides!

"Oh oh oh……"

"Are you blind?"

"You prisoners, did the life in the prison make your eyesight drop!"

Fans in New York feel that the referee is too unfair!Because they only saw Anthony hitting Balkman before, but they didn't see any overreaction from the New York rookie.

"WHAT!" "WHAT?!"

'Melon' and 'Rookie' shouted at the same time, they both felt that they were wronged.

Balkman was defending normally, while 'Melo' just hit 'below the opponent's shoulder', which shouldn't be called a foul.

"You two be honest! Otherwise, I don't mind giving a technical foul, or even a malicious foul, OK?" The referee's meaning is very simple, that is, this is an NBA arena, not an arena for the two of you!
After hearing such an explanation, Anthony and Balkman of course didn't say anything. Eating T is very bad.

"Not bad! Not bad! The defense is very good! That guy is just more famous." Of course, this guy Lao Hu wants to cheer up his teammates.

"Thank you! I will definitely explode his ass! Hehe!"

"Okay, hehe!"

The game continued, because it was a foul by both sides, and there were no free throws accumulated, so the Nuggets still kept the ball.

Still 'Melon', as the number one star of the Nuggets, even if Iverson came, Anthony still has his own right to fire independently.

But when something like that happened just now, Anthony was too embarrassed to hit back like that, so let's cooperate.So, he gestured to the inside line, and Camby immediately came out to be a wall.

Beep!While the Nuggets were cooperating, the referee's whistle sounded again!

"Oh ho ho!..." The fans could see clearly this time, the referee's gesture pointed straight at Camby of the Nuggets!

"WHAT?!" Not only Anthony shouted this time, but Camby also felt wronged.

"Oh! This is a screening foul! Let's take a look at the slow-motion playback!" Mike Brien immediately resorted to high-tech means.

"That's right there! We can clearly see that Camby didn't stop completely, he moved, well, the referee's penalty is very accurate!"

Reasonable and well-founded, of course, even if it is justified and well-founded, someone has to brag about it. In the NBA, many such covers are turned a blind eye.However, it seems that today's referee seems to be more serious.

Therefore, under such a "serious" law enforcement standard, Camby also ended up with two fouls, and now there are 5 minutes left in the first quarter.

Coach George Karl of the Nuggets had no choice but to send Najera.

The Mexican is a very passionate guy, very motivated on the court, he is a person who interprets the game with his life.However, Najera's playing still lowered the overall height of the Nuggets.

Curry has a height of [-] meters, while Nene is only [-] meters, and Najera is only [-] meters, and these are all some water figures.Therefore, the current lineup of the Knicks is really one piece higher than the opponent!
In this way, the Knicks' offensive options are simple. Hu's tactic is to force the inside and wait for the three-pointer from the outside.

The effect was quite good. When the first quarter entered the bench time, the Knicks had already led their opponents by 6 points. 23 to 17.

Moreover, not only was the lead in the score, but Curry and Lao Li made several fouls by the Nuggets' substitute inside.There is no way to do this. There is a difference in height. Although there is no physical disadvantage, it is not good to watch others shoot.

Therefore, seeing the Knicks' situation on the court is very good!

"GO! Knicks! GO!..." The fans rejoiced, and they seemed to have seen another victory.

However, when the two sides replaced the full bench lineup, the situation on the field changed.

Snapped! JR. Smith steals the ball from Crawford, and then he immediately passes to Kleiza who is following behind. Kleiza is extremely fast, and he is like a human shell, rushing to the Knicks' basket basket!
Kuang Ang!The powerful dunk makes people feel that this guy doesn't look like a white man!
"Shhhhh..." New York fans don't like this shot!
