NBA: I haven't played a game but I'm full of talent

"Anyone who can be an NBA head coach has a few talents!" This is Ling Yang's emotion when he was replaced in the middle of the second quarter.

In the first quarter of the game, the Suns' tactical arrangement fully worked.

Whether it was Jones' frequent shots from outside the three-point line in the first start, or Ling Yang's performance on both ends of the offense and defense after he came on the court, they all played out what the Suns coaching staff wanted to see before the game.

However, the arrangement of the Suns coaching staff became invalid after the start of the second quarter.

In D'Antoni's tactical arrangement, Ling Yang will be the main attacker in the second quarter.

And his judgment is that the Mavericks will play in the second quarter, and it is very likely that Nowitzki will be sent to an offensive lineup with four outside players to take advantage of Nash's exit.

In this way, Ling Yang will be able to get more opportunities to kill the basket when the inside defense is weak.

The idea is wonderful, but Avery Johnson didn't do it.

Instead, Johnson put Diop and Nowitzki on the floor, with Howard on the court, Stackhouse at the 2, and Harris at the [-].

Except for Terry, a starter who was not present, Johnson froze and arranged for the other four starters to play.

As if seeing through the Suns' offensive tactics, the Mavericks' defense against Ling Yang was very targeted at the beginning of the second quarter.

Howard was fighting from the side, and Diop was interfering from the front. Every time Ling Yang entered the three-second zone, he would almost always be flanked by the two.

Moreover, the defensive actions of the two are not small.

Ling Yang did cause a foul, but of the four times he hit the inside line, only one was rewarded. Of the remaining three times, two times were interfered with and the layup was insufficient. After the ball was cut, Ling Yang threw the ball out of the baseline and made a mistake. .

However, D'Antoni knew that Ling Yang's ability to handle the ball in the breakthrough was not strong, so in this wave, he did not arrange too much for Ling Yang's receiving tactics.

This is also an important reason why Ling Yang can only rush forward and fall into the Mavericks' defensive net.

If the key tactics are not played out, the Suns' scoring will naturally not be much better.

Moreover, D'Antoni deliberately chose an extroverted lineup in order to open up space for Ling Yang and create opportunities for breakthroughs. This also caused the Suns to fall inside and gave the Mavericks a chance to score.

With an 11-point lead in the first quarter, after entering the second quarter, after playing a few rounds, only 5 points remained.

Fortunately, Dior has a good view of the overall situation, adjusted his tactics in time, completed an assist to Barbosa's score, and helped the Suns stop the bleeding.

Then, after D'Antoni realized that Ling Yang couldn't open this point, he immediately made a tactical change, which stabilized the situation on the field.

As the main attack point in the early part of the second quarter that the coaching staff hoped for, Ling Yang only scored 5 points through free throws after playing 4 minutes in the second quarter.

This is also the main reason why Ling Yang sighed after sitting on the sidelines.

After resting for 3 minutes off the court, Ling Yang returned to the court again. At this time, he made a contribution. He successfully ate two cakes from Nash and scored 4 points.

...60:54, the first half ended, the Suns still maintained the lead, but the lead was smaller than in the first quarter.

In the third quarter, the competition between the two teams became more and more intense. The Mavericks were very wary of the Suns' outside offense when Jones was on the court, and the defensive arrangement was very targeted.

At the same time, they also took advantage of the relative weakness of the Suns' outside defense at this time to find out the weaknesses of the defense. At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Mavericks directly narrowed the point difference to 5 point with a wave of 0:1, which made the American Airlines Stadium bear the pain. Can't help setting off an orgasm.

However, Nash quickly showed his role as the god of the sun, and directly hit a three-pointer, which widened the difference between the two teams to 4 points.

After D'Antoni saw that Jones was temporarily unable to play a role on the court, he also re-arranged Ling Yang to play.

Afterwards, the scores of the two teams became more and more stalemate. Because of the fierce defense and confrontation, the offensive efficiency of the two teams was not high, but because the Mavericks were getting closer to the score, the atmosphere on the scene was also very enthusiastic.

At 8 minutes and 26 seconds into the third quarter, the Mavericks came to the climax of the game at home.

Nowitzki and Terry, the two Mavericks' offensive cores, scored consecutively to help the Mavericks complete the overtake.

The Suns were not to be outdone, and in the last 3 minutes, taking advantage of Nowitzki's rest on the Mavericks side, he insisted on a wave of offensive climax and regained the lead.

84:81, the end of the third quarter, the Suns lead by 3 points.

"Steve and Amare have to rest..."

The starting players of both sides walked to the sidelines, and D'Antoni began to adjust the playing personnel of the fourth quarter.

Both Nash and Stoudemire have been on the court for a whole quarter of the game, and naturally they still have to rest at this time.

However, he still had to think about who to arrange.

The tactical arrangement before the game, arranging an outside lineup, tried it in the second quarter and it didn't work. Nowitzki on the Mavericks side has rested for more than two minutes, and it is very likely that the game will resume in the fourth quarter. to the field.

Under such circumstances, once the Suns' offense cannot be opened, it is very likely that the Mavericks will take the initiative again.

"Mike, I think we can still trust Ling!" Gentry seemed to see D'Antoni's entanglement at the moment, and started to say.

D'Antoni nodded slightly when he heard it, and when the Suns came to the sidelines, D'Antoni immediately began to adjust the lineup.

Nash and Stoudemire went off the field, Ling Yang, Marion, and Bell continued to play the three starters. At the same time, Diaw played to organize the offense. At this time, Stoudemire did not choose Gbagbo as the point guard. Sa, but chose House.

Compared with Barbosa, House's outside shooting is more stable and more threatening.

As for the counterattack speed, if there is really a chance to counterattack, Ling Yang's impact at this point is enough.

In a sense, Ling Yang and Barbosa are not compatible.

The fourth quarter started quickly, and the Mavericks really deployed a lineup similar to the second quarter.

Diop, Nowitzki, and Terry are all on the field, and they are paired with the team's sixth man, Stackhouse. However, Josh Howard played the entire third quarter, so he is not at the moment. Not on the field, but arranged for Daniels, who is also excellent in defense.

.... The sun took the lead in attacking, and the Mavericks really paid enough attention to Ling Yang, so they directly sent Daniels to defend Ling Yang.

After House took the serve, the basketball was quickly handed over to Dior, who was in charge of organizing.

Bell and Ling Yang immediately started to run actively according to the tactical arrangement.

However, on Lingyang's side, it was not so easy to get the opportunity to cut into the basket. After Lingyang started running, Daniels followed very closely.

"Lingyang and Bell are actively running, and the defenders are very tight. Bell and Dior are cross-running. This is an opportunity, hey...

The ball was given to Ling Yang!

"

Bell and Dior crossed and ran to Stackhouse, who was following the defense, and rushed to the outside of the three-point line. .

At this time, Ling Yang, after cutting inside to no avail, made an emergency stop and ran out.

At this time, Daniels is not following so closely. He is still wary of Dior taking the opportunity to dribble and attack the basket.

However, what the Mavericks didn't expect was that Dior did pass the ball, but not to Bell, but directly to Ling Yang who had just rushed out of the three-second zone at the moment.

Catch the ball, turn around, take off and shoot!

Ling Yang's set of movements was done in one go!

When Daniels reacted and threw himself towards Ling Yang, Ling Yang's shot had already been made.

"Shh!

"

Close shot, hollow hit!

"Good shot! Ling Yang shot the ball very decisively..."

The domestic commentators and fans were overjoyed, while Ling Yang turned around with a very calm face after landing and began to retreat.

But at the moment when he turned around, Ling Yang couldn't help grumbling in his heart.

"Do you really think I'll just hold the ball and rush to the basket?"

It has been almost a month since he improved his ability to hold the ball. At this stage of the game, Ling Yang has indeed played a more aggressive attack by breaking through with the ball.

However, Ling Yang relied on what started out, and relied on cutting off the ball.

He is better at finding the opponent's defensive weakness through running positions than attacking with the ball. What's more, Ling Yang has 90 short-range shots.

In the second quarter of the game, Ling Yang was eager to attack the inside line, somewhat irrational, but after nearly two quarters of calm thinking, Ling Yang has already figured this out.

It's not just when Nash is on the court that he needs to run more off the ball.

The same is true of this lineup now, with the combination of off the ball and the ball, only then can we find more and better offensive opportunities.

The ball is handed over to the Mavericks. With Nowitzki on the court, he is naturally the first choice for the Mavericks.

It was Marion who was defending Nowitzki, but Ling Yang was quietly preparing to defend Nowitzki at this moment.

After all, compared to Howard, Daniels' offense is much weaker. The most important reason for Howard's offense in this series is that Ling Yang defended him too hard, while Daniels is purely offensive.

Although he was ready to assist in defense at any time, Ling Yang was not in a hurry to attack.

It wasn't until Nowitzki dribbled the ball back and forth, pushing Marion to the sideline of the three-second zone, and seeing Nowitzki about to take the ball, Ling Yang quickly pinched forward.

... Seeing Ling Yang approaching, Nowitzki immediately became vigilant.

He immediately pulled the ball to the side, and at the same time thought about raising it high to avoid being intercepted by Ling Yang.

This is the natural reaction of all players when facing Ling Yang. After all, Ling Yang's defense, especially his outstanding stealing ability, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

It's just that Nowitzki was only wary of Ling Yang, but forgot that Marion behind him was also a monster with long hands.

Seeing that the ball in Nowitzki's hand was exposed, Marion jumped out immediately and quickly cut towards the basketball!

"Nice job, Sean!"

Nowitzki hadn't reacted yet, but Ling Yang who was in front of him could see it clearly, his eyes lit up immediately, and he was also ready to fight back immediately.

"Snapped!"

Marion lived up to expectations and cut the ball accurately, and the basketball fell forward along with the power.

Seeing this scene, Ling Yang, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly bent down and picked up the ball, then dribbled the ball quickly and rushed towards the other half without looking back.

"Nice defense, Ling Yang and Marion's pincer attack caused Nowitzki's mistake, Ling Yang got the ball and counterattacked!

"

…………

Yu Jia, who was explaining, was shouting, and the Mavericks fans who were watching the game at the moment were also shouting.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

"Stop that guy!

! ”

……

The Mavericks players have tried their best to stop Ling Yang, but they found it very difficult!

Although Daniels, Terry, and Stackhouse are all located further outside than Ling Yang.

However, Ling Yang's explosive power was too strong and his speed was too fast. When Ling Yang started to charge forward, the rest of the players were half a beat too late to react.

When Ling Yang crossed the half-court, the only one who could run ahead was Terry, who was on the outermost side.

"It's like this again..."

Terry retreated quickly, while his heart was dripping.

Although more than two quarters have passed, Ling Yang's counterattack in the first quarter knocked him into the air and completed dunks, which left a deep impression on Terry.

Terry has also figured it out now, instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative to attack.

So when Ling Yang crossed the free throw line, Terry didn't continue to retreat, and at the same time, he didn't go to block him directly, but moved quickly to the side of Ling Yang.

After seeing Ling Yang rush forward to pick up the ball, Terry immediately stretched out his hand and pulled towards Ling Yang's arm.

He wants to use a foul to stop Ling Yang's fast-break dunk. At this time, the sun cannot be allowed to rise at will.

"Snapped!"

Terry patted Ling Yang's arm heavily with his palm, and at the same time, pulled it suddenly.

"Ok?"

The footsteps pulled by Terry's sudden foul faltered slightly.

"If you want to hold me, I'm afraid it won't be so easy!"

The next moment, Ling Yang suddenly exerted his strength!

He directly broke free from Terry's pull. Although it was already difficult to dunk at this time, Ling Yang made a one-handed layup lightly and hit the ball steadily!

Terry saw that even pulling and pulling did not have the slightest effect on Ling Yang, so he couldn't help but let out a wail from the bottom of his heart.

"This guy is indeed a monster!"

Equally emotional, there are Mavericks fans at the scene, as well as Avery Johnson sitting on the sidelines.

With Ling Yang's counterattack layup, the point difference between the two teams has come to 88:81, and the point difference has become 7 points.

And Ling Yang still had a chance to make a free throw, which didn't work out in the second quarter, but actually got something in the fourth quarter.

When Ling Yang stood on the free throw line, whether it was D'Antoni or Gentry, their brows stretched.

"Shh!

"

Ling Yang's extra penalty hit steadily, 89:81, and the Suns' lead came to 8 points again.

"cks!"

When the Mavericks attacked again, the Mavericks fans at the scene began to cheer and cheer.

The 8-point difference has reached a dangerous critical point, and Mavericks fans naturally don't want to see the point difference being widened to double digits again.
