Basketball: Man in 08, three months left before the Olympics

The Hornets were on the rise, leading by 17 points in the middle of the quarter, and were on the verge of winning the series easily.

But I never thought that after the Mavericks replaced an eastern face that they had never seen before, they immediately scored five consecutive points in half a minute, instantly narrowing the gap to 12 points.

Hornets head coach Byron Scott, who has a cautious coaching style, decisively called a timeout.

“Listen, guys, our defensive strategy is going to change, the other side uses a big player over two meters to control the ball…”

“Coach, I’ll guard against him!” Without waiting for the head coach to finish, Chris Paul took the initiative.

Paul’s stealing ability is extremely strong, Scott nodded to agree.

The timeout ended and the game returned.

The Hornets attacked, Paul and Chandler blocked it, and the two connected with the latter, who slammed the shot.

72:86

The score was pulled apart again, and Nowitzki, as a center, was completely unable to withstand Chandler’s raging inside line.

The Mavericks attacked, Paul came to Pei Yun, and the active defense put some pressure on him.

However, Pei Yun’s ball protection is very good.

Nowitzki mentioned that the high position gave Pei Yun a block and disassembled, and Paul and Chandler both chased the disassembled Novitsky, thus temporarily releasing Pei Yun.

Pei Yun didn’t think much about it, and shot directly from outside the three-point line.

Hit!

75:86

He seems to feel good today, and the scene is a little quieter.

The Hornets possessed the ball, Paul possessed the ball for half the court, Chandler blocked, and the two wanted to repeat the same trick.

But the experienced Kidd can’t let you play twice in a uniform way, and he blocked Chandler’s way to the basket and put Paul on mid-range shots.

Paul made a decisive move, but unfortunately it was not hit.

Strike iron!

Pei Yun took the rebound and gave the ball to Kidd.

The short but nimble Paul has great speed and super stealing ability, and Pei Yun has to face his tight defense to bring the ball to the front, which is not small.

Coming to the front court, Pei Yun quickly sank to a low position.

Kidd is a famous organizational master of the league, how can he not understand the situation on the field.

Pei Yun versus Paul, this is a typical big fight.

Kidd hoisted the ball to Pei Yun.

Facing Paul, Pei Yun hit his back, turned around and shot, hit!

77:86

The score was chased to single digits, and the faces of the Mavericks players shone with hope again.

In just over two minutes of play, Pei Yun scored 8 points, 1 assist and 2 rebounds, and he is a star of hope for the desperate Mavericks.

The Hornets quickly headed the ball to the baseline, and Paul ran all the way, breaking through to attract the defense and passing to Stojakovic in the bottom corner, who made a three-point shot and missed it.

Kidd got the rebound, Pei Yun came to him and said to him: “Jason, control the rhythm, slow down and play!” ”

In the ’08 league, the league saw a wave of offense due to the success of the Suns and Warriors.

Teams with outstanding offensive ability such as the Hornets and Mavericks like to speed up the pace of the game, especially the Hornets led by Paul, who have many young players and full of physical strength, are even more admiring this kind of offense.

Of course, Kidd understood what Pei Yun meant, and now it was the final moment of the game, and although the score was behind, their physical reserves were not good.

After dribbling the ball through the front court, Kidd handed the ball to Pei Yun, who came out to receive the ball.

Paul still appeared in front of Pei Yun and defended him one-on-one.

This time, Pei Yun did not move too much, but hung the ball directly to Novitsky, who was stuck at a 45-degree angle.

In charge of defending Nowitzki was David West.

In the past, when dealing with this kind of ball, while West resisted Novitsky, Paul would choose to let go of Kidd and pinch Nowitzki in the past, just because the “Kee does not attack” shot is really inaccurate.

However, in this round, Paul began to worry about Pei Yun’s shooting, and he did not decisively leave Pei Yun to pinch Novitsky.

West, a one-on-one single, is a rare occurrence for Dirknowitzki in this series.

After making sure that no one would wrap him, Novitsky began to dribble with his back, and suddenly a big stride, after breaking through West, hit the basket is a dunk!

79:86

After the goal, Novitsky spit out his tongue and took the initiative to high-five Pei Yun in the defense, praised: “Pei, you are really amazing, come on, we are going to overtake!” ”

Nowitzki is very clear that the reason why he can get a chance to fight one is because of Pei Yun’s containment.

You know, last season, Novitsky led the team to the finals, last season he was the MVP, except for his future trick “Golden Rooster Independence” has not yet perfected the realm, the rest of the abilities are at the peak.

In this era, if you want to defend against the peak Novitsky one-on-one, almost no one can do it!

With 4:36 left in time, Paul was in a bit of a hurry, and the Hornets served quickly as he sped all the way to the Mavericks half.

Pei Yun immediately blocked in front of him.

Facing Pei Yun, Paul couldn’t help but sneer in his heart: “Dare to guard against me, aren’t you afraid of being shaken off your leg?” ”

Immediately, he began to make a death disguised breakthrough on Pei Yun.

However, to Paul’s surprise, in the face of this “big man” of 203, he would not be able to get rid of the defense for a while?!

In desperation, he could only pass the ball to Peterson, who caught up.

Pei Yun couldn’t help but sigh: “This [Sticky Defense] skill is really easy to use!” ”
