Chapter 252 Double Team Restrictions
The Mavericks attacked, Terry took the ball to the front to face Lu Wei's defense, and Diop on the inside came over to play the pick-and-roll without waving.

However, after Terry switched defenses, he just broke through half a step to the inside when he saw Stackhouse cutting in without the ball.

Seeing this situation, Terry hit the ground and passed the ball to the opponent. The moment the latter caught the ball, he accelerated and rushed to the inside.

Yang Zhan was pulled to the three-point line by Crohill, and Swift was also pulled out to prevent Terry after the pick-and-roll.

So when there was no one inside, Stackhouse broke through to the basket, jumped up and succeeded in a one-armed dunk.

As expected of him in his peak period, a man averaging nearly 30 points per game has a different depth of understanding of offense.

Even if his body has declined in an all-round way now, his singles ability with the ball is basically gone, but he has also developed a very threatening off-the-ball cut.

Conversely, the Grizzlies attacked. After Yang Zhan came to the frontcourt, he fell to the low post and asked for the ball from Lu Wei at the top of the arc.

This time Yang Zhan did not hit back, but took a frontal attack on the basket.

According to Crozier's technical analysis, although back hitting the opponent is also unstoppable, but this style of play will make scoring easier.

With Yang Zhan's current ball-handling ability, he didn't take the risk of dribbling the ball. He took a tentative step first, and then faced Crozier to speed up instantly.

After the addition of Brand's player card, Yang Zhan's explosive power is now very strong!

So even if the speed is not very fast, this first step is extraordinary.

In addition, Crohill's movement speed itself was very slow, which caused Yang Zhan to directly pull his opponent away.

No one was double-teaming during the march, Yang Zhan rushed all the way to the basket, Diop on the inside unconsciously took a step back, and then watched the opponent dunk successfully.

At this moment, Diop was flustered. Seeing Yang Zhan playing so violently today, he couldn't help saying: "Who can stand up to this!"

But he also thought of this defensive attitude, the coach would definitely scold him after the game, so Diop thought of a way just now.

"I have to keep an eye on Swift. He's a power forward with a basket and a mid-range shot like Jordan. Well! That's it."

The Mavericks attacked, and Terry took the ball to the frontcourt. This time he didn't need a pick-and-roll. Although his singles with the ball were not that strong, he was more than enough to defend Lu Wei.

After Terry dribbled the ball twice, he first accelerated slightly to break through to the left, and then retreated beyond the three-point line to make a fake shot.

You must know that Terry's three-pointers are really accurate this season, so even if Lu Wei didn't jump up, the center of gravity has shifted.

Seeing this opportunity, Terry opened up his speed and rushed directly to the three-point line. Of course, he also passed Lu Wei at the same time.

No one was double-teaming on the move, and he broke through to the free throw line all the way. When there was no one in front of him, Terry directly chose to make a jumper with an emergency stop. This is Terry's specialty.

brush!Hit!

As time went on, both sides were scoring in their own ways, but the time on the court reached about 3 minutes, and the Grizzlies' lead had begun to gradually expand.

So when Lu Wei at the top of the arc broke through the free throw line and hit a mid-range jumper with the help of Swift's pick-and-roll, the Mavericks head coach called a timeout to the referee.

The opponent didn't know what to say tactically. Anyway, the starting lineup is all back, and the Grizzlies have also changed back to the starting lineup.

After a timeout, the Mavericks got the ball back. Harris held the ball to the frontcourt and still played pick-and-roll tactics. It seems that the offense is still the same.

After a tactical pick-and-roll, Nowitzki came out to catch the ball, and the opponent chose to make a direct shot from outside the three-point line before Battier defended.

Boom!Strike the iron!

It just felt a bit worse when I first played.

Conversely, the Grizzlies attacked, and Yang Zhan came to the frontcourt without the ball and was still on the baseline.

However, at the moment of receiving the pass, Yang Zhan understood the opponent's change, and Nowitzki resolutely let go of Warrick and directly chose to double-team.

Yang Zhan's current passing ability has been declining in a straight line, and he can't pass the ball in the face of double-teaming.

That is to say, in the moment of hesitation, Josh Howard, who was originally behind, took the lead, and at this time Nowitzki was making a ball.

At this time, Yang Zhan's ability to control the ball was not very good, so with the tacit cooperation of the opponent, the basketball in his hand was directly cut off.

Nowitzki turned around and gave the ball to Harris, who caught the ball and ran all the way, and now Yang Zhan couldn't catch up with the opponent at all.

So Roy was directly attracted by Harris, who was at the front, when he came all the way to the frontcourt.

Harris gave the ball directly to Terry, who followed up in the right bottom corner, and the latter directly chose a three-pointer after receiving the ball.

brush!Hit!

Conversely, the Grizzlies attacked, and Yang Zhan came to the frontcourt without the ball. This time he faced Josh Howard's defense and had to be in a deep position.

So when Lu Wei passed the ball, Yang Zhanyun turned around and entered the basket without luck. Dampier didn't react, and then dunked with both hands to complete the attack.

Harris took the ball to the frontcourt, and after the pick-and-roll, gave the ball to Nowitzki at the free throw line, who faced Warrick's defense.

First he made a feint, and then made two steps to the right. Nowitzki stopped and leaned against Warrick lightly, and then Nowitzki chose to shoot a fadeaway jumper.

brush!Hit!

Conversely, when the Grizzlies attacked, Yang Zhan actually played by surprise in the last round.

So this time the opponent was prepared, and Yang Zhan was thinking that it would be impossible to play like this. When he was positioned on the left baseline and caught the ball with his back again, Nowitzki directly came up to double-team.

Faced with this situation, Yang Zhan couldn't pass it on. After turning around, he forced the shot against two people, and finally ended up hitting the iron.

"Hey, we can see that the opponent's defense is really firm!" said domestic commentator Zhang Reasonable.

With the clock ticking down and about halfway through the second quarter, the Grizzlies held on to a slim lead.

Because of the opponent's double-teaming tactics, although Yang Zhan's offense was greatly hindered.

But because of this, Yang Zhan put all his state on defense, and the opponent didn't have the touch of a human, appearing in an explosive state.

Several adjustments made by the coaches of the two sides did not cause any major changes in the situation. As Nowitzki faced Warrick's defense, he forced a three-pointer to hit the iron.

The referee's whistle sounded, and the first half ended. The Grizzlies temporarily led the Mavericks by 54 points 50 to 4.

Following the analysis by the commentators, the halftime break ended and the third quarter officially started, with players from both sides appearing one after another.

The head coaches of both sides sent their respective starting lineups.
