explosive dribbler

Chapter 92

Seeing Butler's reaction, An Xiaonan felt a little strange.In his impression, Butler is not an irritable person.

But this is really annoying. You said that Thibodeau is a defensive master and specially sent Butler to defend An Xiaonan.The purpose is to limit An Xiaonan's scoring and make the Magic break a leg.But tell me, this An Xiaonan just wanted to play a pick-and-roll and never confront Butler head-on.

This makes Thibodeau's tactics feel a little overwhelmed.

But some people will ask, you said that An Xiaonan played pick-and-rolls, wouldn't it be fine if Butler didn't switch defenses?Why did An Xiaonan Xiao choose to beat him up?

That's a good question, so let me explain now.If you don't switch defenses when facing An Xiaonan's pick-and-roll, will the pick-and-roll delay Butler more or less?Then, will An Xiaonan use his extremely strong explosive power to get into the inside line one step at a time?

So from this point of view, unless it was double-teamed, or An Xiaonan felt cold.Otherwise, the Timberwolves would not be able to effectively restrain An Xiaonan at all.

But is An Xiaonan the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the hard?of course not.Although Downs can't be described as soft at all...

Ever since, An Xiaonan resolutely responded to the next attack after Butler's provocation.

Facing Butler's defense, An Xiaonan had to try to break through.If he doesn't challenge it all the time, he won't progress.

An Xiaonan started to dribble the ball in front of his body, but Butler didn't move.An Xiaonan slapped the ball to his crotch, and after receiving the ball with his left hand, he didn't feint at all, and directly broke through to the left with one step.

This greatly exceeded Butler's expectations.For tonight's game, Butler deliberately studied An Xiaonan's dribbling breakthrough.He didn't expect that An Xiaonan would use such a direct method to make a breakthrough... So his reaction was a beat slower, and An Xiaonan had already come to his side.

However, Butler's defensive adjustments are extremely fast.Using small movements to successfully slow down An Xiaonan's speed, and then constantly delaying An Xiaonan's breakthrough from behind.

An Xiaonan used his body to protect the ball, but Butler's small movements made him extremely uncomfortable.But since An Xiaonan has already taken the advantage of heads-up, he will not let go of this chance to score.

Just when Butler interfered with An Xiaonan, An Xiaonan suddenly jumped up with the ball.

An Xiaonan bumped into Butler in the air, and Butler was taken aback.An Xiaonan pretended to be in pain and yelled, and the referee directly called Butler for a shooting foul.

An Xiaonan landed on the ground, laughing hehehe.Butler was immediately dissatisfied, and stepped forward to argue with the referee...

Although there is no advantage in a head-to-head confrontation, An Xiaonan's golf quotient is unmatched by Butler.

Using your own cleverness, you can always find a breakthrough.

"Swipe!" Made two free throws!
In the following period of time, An Xiaonan's singles success rate against Butler also exceeded [-]%.Of course, An Xiaonan will not take the initiative to single out Butler, after all, this selfish move will only drag down the team.It is often singled out when the tactics are not successfully executed...

On the Timberwolves side, Butler was annoyed because he failed to effectively limit An Xiaonan's scoring.The touch on the offensive end has also become cold.The entire young Timberwolves are basically relying on Towns' scoring to live...

Throughout the second quarter, Downs was basically a father and a mother at the same time.Originally, the physical fitness of a big center is generally not as good as that of a defender, let alone a big center who is both a father and a mother...

After Downs played vigorously for a while, he began to wither...

Then the game came to the third quarter, and Gordon found a normal game state.But the Timberwolves showed their tenacious side.Mr. Wiggins, the No. [-] pick, started his scoring performance.

When An Xiaonan was replaced, there were three and a half minutes left in the third quarter. The current score is 75:62, with the Magic leading by [-] points.

"Swipe!" Butler finally found the touch and hit a three-pointer.He scored 11 points on 3-for-12 shooting tonight.

75: 65.

Immediately afterwards, the Magic's substitute players also began to work hard.

First, Hezonja's three-pointer, and then Augustin's breakthrough layup, two plus one.

This allowed the Magic to directly hit a 6:0 spurt.At the end of the third quarter, the Magic led by 83 points 68:[-].

Fifteen points is already a big lead, but it's still not enough insurance.Ever since, An Xiaonan made another effort and contributed a wonderful goal together with Gordon.

An Xiaonan dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. It was the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter.The Magic led by 94 points at 80:[-].

The Timberwolves have started a desperate halftime press, which has caused the Magic's shooting percentage to drop to a certain extent.But this did not bother An Xiaonan.

As long as this point difference is maintained until the last 1 minute, the victory is assured.

An Xiaonan dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and was immediately defended by Butler.Butler's close defense was extremely oppressive, and An Xiaonan didn't go hard, but retreated and passed the ball to Augustin.

Then An Xiaonan made a direct change of direction and used Gordon's pick-and-roll to bypass Butler's defense.Seeing the gap in the Timberwolves' defense, An Xiaonan directly slanted into the three-point line.

Augustin had sharp eyes and quick hands. Seeing that An Xiaonan was about to rush into the interior, he passed the ball into his hands with a swift pass.

An Xiaonan didn't have any fear in the face of Downs who was defending in front.His eyes rolled back, and then he jumped up to face Downs.

Towns has an absolute advantage in height, as long as An Xiaonan dunks the ball off the ball, they still have a chance to reverse.

But at the moment Downs jumped up, An Xiaonan flicked the ball behind his waist.

Downs' pupils shrank suddenly, and there was Gordon behind An Xiaonan before he knew it? !
It turned out that when An Xiaonan used Gordon to cover the run, Gordon made an inside cut after blocking...successfully ran out of the open space.

After Gordon received the ball, he stepped over the free throw line and jumped high...

An Xiaonan landed at this moment and squatted down. Gordon behind him flew directly over his head...

"Bang Dang!!" There was a piercing wail from the basket, and Gordon was riding Downs under him...

Everyone was shocked by this teammate Leaping, who dunked his opponent's dunk...

The top candidates for the dunk of the year have been created...

This buckle also broke the Timberwolves' last will.In the end, the Magic beat the Timberwolves by 106 points 85:21.
