I'm king in the basket

Chapter 325 The Death of Silence

Chapter 325 The Death of Silence

Li Xing's performance in the second quarter was expected, but Shervin Mark's outburst was a surprise.

Li Xing's initial idea was very simple: if Mark was regarded as the second Stephenson, it would be like raising Stephenson to slowly raise Mark's state. In the end, this guy was lucky. Not only did he raise his state, but he also added BUFF himself. Scored 14 points.

At the end of the first half, Barkley said with a smile: "Coach Quin Snyder is now facing a huge trouble, should he continue to use Shelvin Mark in the second half?"

For Barkley, that's a problem.

For the calm and robotic Snyder, this has never been a problem.

Even if Mark played a gratifying performance, he can clearly realize the crux of the problem.

Again, Mark is the standard Stephenson II.

Players like them have the same characteristic that they are nerve knives. They are unstoppable when they are convulsed, and they are also unstoppable when they are nervous.

"Now let's play the game with a different intensity. Don't forget, you are the defending champions, but you didn't show the momentum of the defending champions in the first half. You even let the first-year rookie help you equalize the score!"

Snyder said: "You should thank Sherwin, and at the same time feel guilty for your performance. In the second half, I hope to see a completely different look!"

Snyder's injunction worked.

On the first offense of the second half, Bargnani came up and hit Brand with his back.

"The first half was just a warm-up, just wait and see!" Bargnani said excitedly.

"warm up?"

snort!
Holiday is a mass of Amaterasu black flames that will not be extinguished until the target is burned to ashes. Bargnani's contempt touched his sensitive nerves.

His response was equally straightforward, he still had to pick and roll, and he had to shoot the ball when he found a gap.

In response to his preference to launch offenses through pick-and-rolls, the Raptors also responded in a targeted manner.

Holiday is a very aggressive defender. In other words, his vision is not very good, which is why Li Xing dared to jump out to defend.

Li Xing raised his hands high, like a Kunpeng covering the ladder, which seriously affected Holiday's attack.

In front of such a defense, Holiday can't see the basket and shoots according to his feeling.

"boom!"

"Counterattack!"

"hateful!"

Holiday glared at Li Xing angrily.

"That's it, that guy is nothing special, he can't get a point against Lucky!"

The Dailins scene is all that's missing from full-time cheerleading is a sexy outfit and dancing wreaths.

Greene hits it off with her, and the two always like to stand up and discuss the game.

If it weren't for Theron and Ingrid, they would definitely let themselves go, and then the gossip media the next day would be able to take photos of their gaffes and send them back to the imagination.

Every time it's the Raptors' turn to counterattack, the person running at the forefront of the fast break doesn't need to look, it must be DeRozan.

If it's not DeRozan, there must be something wrong with the Raptors.

For example, DeRozan fell
At this moment, no one could stop DeRozan from taking off, and he counterattacked with a dunk.

This is the normal state of the Raptors. Li Xing blocked the shot and his teammates counterattacked.

Over the course of three years, this has become a routine that happens many times in every game.

Every team knows this routine, but they can't guard against it, because Li Xing's blocks always come suddenly.

Holiday gritted his teeth. He didn't want to lose to Li Xing. He was filled with indignation when he heard the cheers and watched the score continue to widen.

"you!"

Li Xing turned around, not knowing what he wanted to say.

"I gave you a chance, but it's a pity you didn't prove yourself."

Li Xing said this sentence coldly.

A sense of crisis has emerged. Although there is still a long time before the end of the game, the score is still expanding.

The reversal in the first half was no accident, and the Raptors increased their intensity in the second half.

The 76ers must make changes. If they can't stabilize and let the Raptors counterattack so continuously, the game will lose suspense.

Calderon felt Holiday's determination, and he really didn't know where the fighting spirit of this young defender came from.

If it were someone else who was targeted by Li Xing so much, he would have given up early. This guy is fine, what's the matter with fighting more and more vigorously?

The biggest difference between the Raptors and the 76ers is the lack of this win-or-die determination.

As the eighth team in the East, they place themselves in a very low position. The Raptors are the overlord of the league. If they want to attack their opponents, they have to give up everything.

It's something Snyder has been worrying about, too.

The opponent is indeed not the kind of strong team that needs to be guarded repeatedly. The problem is that they are playing in the playoffs. Once they enter the playoffs, the record in the regular season can only show who has the home court advantage. The opportunities are the same for both sides.

Snyder has never pointed out this question. He hopes to let the players find the answer on the court.

Hawes went out again, and Li Xing went out with him.

Letting Li Xing go out means that the duty of guarding the basket falls to Bargnani.

Holiday looked like he was going to play a pick-and-roll pass with Hawes.

Li Xing could only choose one.

He didn't know who to pick, and the burning fire inside Holiday gave him the answer.

I would rather let Hawes shoot an open three-pointer than let Holiday get a single-handed chance.

Li Xing spotted Holiday's position and followed.

Sure enough, he guessed right. This tactic is still based on Holiday. They have worked so hard to do so much, but they were still seen through in the end.

Holiday didn't know what happened, Li Xing seemed to be able to read minds.

"How is it possible? How could he?"

When Holiday shot, he saw Li Xing trailing behind him.

His shooting was irreversible, and Li Xing's blocking was inevitable.

"bang!"

Li Xing's palm caught the egg-like basketball, which once again ended the 76ers' tactics.

Then came the fan favorite moment of the scene,
DeRozan received the pass, like those track and field athletes who perform [-]-meter sprints, the basket is his finish line, and he will never stop.

This is DeRozan's acting moment.

Evan Turner was powerless to stop, his start timing was too far behind.

"Look at this dunk, DeMar dunks Toronto's ambitions!"

"It's their first playoff game of the season and they're ready!"

"The defending champion deserves to be the defending champion. Their performance in the first half once made people want to abandon them. As a result, they quickly found themselves in the second half. This kind of adjustment ability is not possessed by the 76ers."

Snyder was also relieved.

As long as the team can maintain this momentum, the 76ers have no chance.

I'm afraid that these guys will lose their minds halfway through the fight, and that will be troublesome.

DeRozan's dunk brought the point difference between the two sides to double digits.

Back at halftime, the 76ers finally gave up Holiday, who had failed consecutive singles.

Their main target is placed on the champion Lang in 1999.

Elton Brandy seldom gets such an important task, and the trust of his teammates is regarded as an honor by him.

Unfortunately, after switching defenses, it is not Bargnani who is defending Brand now, but Li Xing, whom he is least willing to face.

"Even if it's you, don't try to stop me now, if I want to score, I will definitely be able to score!"

Li Xing felt more and more that everyone in the 76ers team was sick, regardless of their strength, why did each of them have to brag about themselves when they first came up?
Is it because you can't play without bragging?

Elton was so emboldened by himself that he beat Li Xing back and forth.

He still has some shadows of his peak period, and his methods are quite comprehensive, and he can make all kinds of moves. The years have taken away his physical fitness and made him lose the capital to compete with Li Xing.

If he is still at the peak, he can still fight Li Xing at this moment.

Now, his athletic ability has disappeared, and skills alone cannot deal with Li Xing.

Li Xing is not a jumping boy, he can't shake people up by spinning and jumping with his eyes closed, and it will only make his attack conditions worse.

In this stalemate until the end, Brand had only one choice, namely: to force a shot.

In order to avoid blocking, he has to increase the arc;
To turn up the arc, his hit rate will be ugly;

Because the hit rate is ugly, so is his expression;
Just thinking about these things is very sad. What if the shot that I thought would never be blocked is still blocked after all the hard work?
Desperate defense is not to block the opponent's shot every time, but to make the opponent feel that every shot will be blocked.

Brand stood still, and Li Xing destroyed the shot just like that.

The ball flew to the LOGO, and the attack time reached zero.

Offensive violation, the 76ers' offense ended without even touching the basket.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Holiday cheered up and encouraged his teammates.

Others don't understand, but Brand understands.

He's been in the NBA for 13 years, and he knows when the rout starts.

Defeat often starts from these bouts that look disappointing but not desperate enough.

Brand looked at Li Xing. He knew that the young man in front of him had infinite possibilities, and he also knew that he had the secret to victory.

Their opponents are not just the league's No. [-] Raptors.

It is also League No.1.

The lifeless 76ers made the famous Barkley sigh: "They lack a superstar, Jrue Holiday is very good, if they want to do more in the playoffs, they need stronger players."

"The playoffs are the stage for superstars. This sentence will never be wrong."

In this slightly pessimistic commentary, the 76ers were pulled apart a little bit.

At first, they felt nothing.

After the third quarter, the Raptors have led by 25 points.

A lot of games are lost that way.
