NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 102

"Huh~, thank you, I will try my best to prevent him next time."

Facing Knight's exhortation, Ariza also humbly accepted.

After all, when I was in the Knicks before, Marbury and the others would never tell themselves these things.

Once there is a problem on the defensive end, the roar will definitely be ushered in.

At this time, Knight didn't yell at himself for his encouragement, and coach Bickerstaff on the sidelines.

This is also a warm current in Ariza's heart.

On the offensive end, as required, Ariza ran to the left corner and stood still.

Robinson and Kapono are standing in the right corner.

Created a strong and weak side on the pitch, dividing the formation.

Since Knight was on the court, the Bobcats still played a pick-and-roll at the beginning of the game.

After Okafor blocked Knight, because of Okafor's excellent physical fitness, he completely blocked Hinrich behind him.

But Chandler could only choose to switch defenses at the first time. After seeing the switch, Knight immediately returned the ball to Okafor, allowing Okafor to misplace Hinrich in singles.

Okafor, who received the ball at the top of the arc, did not hesitate, and directly chose to play back and crush the inside.

In this case, it is impossible for Hinrich at 193 to prevent Okafor.

Hearing the yelling of the coach on the sidelines, Curry immediately came from the weak side and chose to double-team Okafor.

And because of the suspension, most of the Bobcats' current offensive starting points are on Okafor.

So in training, Okafor also mainly practiced the ball after being double-teamed.

Okafor saw the opportunity immediately and distributed the ball to Ariza, who was defended by Curry on the weak side.

The weight of the little shark Curry has brought a big problem to his defensive speed.

This made his defense very poor throughout his career, and because the outside world generally expected too much of him, he did not have a positive defensive attitude at all.

This is also the main reason why he can only become a homeless man while he is expected to become the next O'Neal.

Looking at Ariza, who was already clearly in the vacancy, Curry just raised his hand symbolically, pretending to try to interfere.

In the bottom corner, Ariza received the ball back, facing an open opportunity at this time, he was still a little nervous.

But after taking a closer look, it was still a three-point shot~

Bang~
Even though the ball was shot from an open position, it still went wide.

The backcourt rebound was accepted by Chandler.

Seeing that none of the balls in his open space were made, Ariza gritted his teeth secretly.

Ariza is now very dissatisfied with his performance.

I'm even thinking about it differently. If I were the head coach, I'm afraid I wouldn't choose to let myself stay on the court.

As the ball was not scored, Ariza hurried back to defense.

But when returning to defense, he couldn't help but look at Bickerstaff beside the coach's bench.

Seeing that Bickerstaff still didn't say anything, standing on the sidelines with his hands folded on his chest, he just shook his head slightly.

Obviously, he also had some expectations for his shot this time, but the result made him a little disappointed.

Indeed, as Ariza thought, this opportunity came out so perfect that Bickerstaff thought the ball could be hit steadily on the sidelines.

Because Ariza has mainly practiced three-pointers from the bottom corners on both sides since he came to the Bobcats.

And in training, his shooting percentage was not bad, at least not as low as his shooting percentage this season.

But in the face of this open opportunity, Ariza's shot still failed to hit.

Although Bickerstaff understands that as a rookie, starting for the first time in his life, there must be some tension in his heart.

It is normal to have some ups and downs in the game, but facing such a good opportunity, he still failed to grasp it, and Bickerstaff felt a little helpless in his heart.

Because the team has suffered a seven-game losing streak, the team desperately needs a victory to stop this decline.

The Bobcats' back defense fell quickly. This time the Bulls played very simply, and everyone pulled away.

Hinrich lobbed the ball directly to Curry, a small shark inside.

Because in the last round, the Bulls had obviously discovered that Ariza couldn't guard against Curry at all.

And the coach on the sidelines kept shouting, trying to hit the ball into Curry's hands as much as possible.

Now that there is already an advantage point, of course there is no need to play those messy tactics.

Everyone pulled away, and Curry squeezed Ariza behind him with the ball.

Ariza was absolutely at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and Curry began to play Ariza with his back and singles.

After a few strokes, Ariza was staggered.

But as Eddie Curry turned to shoot, Ariza struck.

boom!
Ariza hit the ball accurately this time, using the moment Curry turned around to hit the ball to the ground.

Before anyone else could react, Ariza hurriedly picked up the ball and passed it long forward to Robinson who had already started running.

Because Robinson is young and strong, and his skills are very single, Liu Rui first asked him to practice the reaction speed of three-pointers and fast breaks.

Therefore, when everyone didn't react, Ariza had already discovered Robinson who was running.

Passed the ball directly, Robinson received the ball, and it was an unguarded dunk immediately in the frontcourt.

2:2
After landing, he also excitedly raised his hand to signal that the pass was beautiful! !

And this wonderful cooperation also won the applause of Bickerstaff from the sidelines.

Obviously, I am very satisfied with Ariza's defense this time and Robinson's fast break this time.

And here, Curry kept complaining to the referee, saying that Ariza hit his hand with the ball.

And the referee didn't mean anything against him at all, the referee was standing on the bottom line, and it was completely clear whether there was a thug in the ball.

And it was the sound of cutting the ball, it was completely hit the ball accurately.

So Curry's method of applying pressure did not give the referee any hesitation.

And he seemed a little annoyed by Curry's nagging, and said to him:
"Shut up, whether this ball is a good steal or not, I can see clearly, concentrate on hitting your ball, don't challenge my authority anymore."

Because of the two major incidents in the NBA recently, it can be said that the teams are already frightened.

Facing the referee's reaction, Shark Curry also shut his mouth wisely, but thought secretly in his heart:

"This damn rookie, next round, I will definitely blow him up."

And Hinrich took the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. He didn't need him to direct anything, and he saw Curry angrily demanding a position at the basket, and he was very determined.

Seeing this, Hinrich also gave the ball a high profile to Curry inside.

This time Curry learned smartly, holding the ball with his whole body, and shouldering Ariza sideways with his shoulders.

Put the ball to the far side so that Ariza can't easily steal the ball from himself.

As Curry's center of gravity sank, his shoulders pushed hard.

"Pfft!!"

Ariza fell to the ground directly, and drew back more than two meters.

beep~

The referee blew the foul whistle.

Signaled Curry's offensive foul! ! !
