Strong Offense and Defense

In the last minute before the end of the first quarter, Reese suddenly showed extraordinary speed and breakthrough ability. He broke through Jonathan's defense. The instant speed increase and sudden stop and change of direction were amazing.

And Nie Chuan finally broke the ball from the opponent's position, and Manning began to press the man. Nie Chuan must always keep a safe distance from him. Once he enters Manning's defense range, Nie Chuan must spend More energy than ever to break through.

Reese knew Nie Chuan's best way of passing the ball. He came to Nie Chuan's right side and shouted: "Nie Chuan——"

Jonathan and ujt's points came together to defend Reece.

But Nie Chuan's touchdown pass is a classic, it just hit the place where Manning's left hand couldn't reach, it bounced quickly, skipped from the position where the UTJ was over the waist, and his arm swung over but it was too late Interception, Reese took the ball away and rushed to ujt's defensive area.

His speed was astonishing, his hair raised, he passed two people and went straight to the basket.

Nie Chuan shook off Manning and frantically followed Rees.

The rhythm of the game that was originally restrained by ujt was suddenly broken.

Cook returned to defense in an emergency and fought Reese in the air.

Reese's expression was cold, he looked at Cook, the other's palm almost covered his head.

"This height can't be a shot!"

Sure enough, Reese's body swayed sideways in the air and passed the ball to Nie Chuan.

Nie Chuan was still closely guarded by Manning, when Black Mountain came to his side: "Nie Chuan—pass!"

From the corner of Nie Chuan's eyes, he glanced at the side and rear of Heishan. Jonathan was coming, but Nie Chuan still passed the ball in the direction of Heishan.

Manning moved his knee and straddled Nie Chuan's passing side.But Nie Chuan avoided Manning with a dribble behind him, and then stepped back to the three-point line.

Only then did Manning realize what Nie Chuan was going to do. He hurried after him and stretched out his arms to stop Nie Chuan.

And Ewing also came not far from Nie Chuan: "Nie Chuan—"

Owen in the stands raised his eyebrows: Are you going to pass the ball to Ewing, or take the ball back and pass Manning before making plans?

But Nie Chuan completely exceeded everyone's expectations.

He made a fadeaway shot.

Reese broke through ujt's defense and passed the ball to Cook after he was attracted to the basket. Nie Chuan must not waste it.

At that moment, his thoughts were extremely clear, the world became wider, but there was only the basket in the center.

Owen subconsciously leaned forward in the stands, and he had a premonition: the goal must be scored.

As Owen expected, the ball left Nie Chuan's fingertips. It was a very beautiful and high arc. The audience stretched their necks to wait and see. The ball made a pleasant sound when it fell into the basket.

A moment of silence followed by frantic shouts.

When Nie Chuan fell to the ground, he staggered backwards, and Ewing held his back: "God! When did you practice this?"

Nie Chuan smiled and looked in Rees' direction.

Reese was still under the basket, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Who told me, was that goal just a coincidence or strength?" Engri sighed.

"But this young black-haired point guard's judgment on the situation on the court is indeed correct. Montenegro, who came to meet him, was guarded by Jonathan. Once Ewing catches the ball, he will be intercepted by the opponent's position, and it is impossible to shoot smoothly. And Nie Chuan's shot seems thrilling, but from his posture in the air, it can be seen that he is mentally prepared." Robert looked at Nie Chuan's figure and nodded frequently, "I suddenly imagined If Nie Chuan, who is in control of the team's tempo, suddenly starts scoring like Reese Reddington, what will happen to DK?"

"Indeed, passing the ball calmly, judging the situation calmly and then scoring calmly, the kid's performance just now didn't look like he entered the finals for the first time."

Wright in the stands blinked his eyes and lightly touched Thomas beside him with his elbow: "Hey, Thomas... Is that a coincidence? When I practiced with dk before, Allen... seems to have not Such ability?"

Thomas is not very sure: "But if it is a coincidence, but that ball always makes people feel very calm."

"It's not a coincidence." Owen said coldly.

"what?"

"Failing shots are Reese Reddington's strong point. Although he doesn't use them many times, once he uses them, he must hit every shot. Moreover, Reese must have spent a lot of thought on raising his little pet."

Wright sighed: "I said Owen, don't keep calling Allen a 'little pet', be careful that guy hits you with a basketball."

DK regained the rhythm of the game from UJT, Nie Chuan took control of the ball, and in the last ten seconds of this quarter, he killed the opponent's basket.His speed is astonishing, and the players of dk followed him.

Ujt began to seize a favorable position and predict Nie Chuan's movements.

This time, Manning and ujt leaned towards Nie Chuan from the left to the right, but at that moment Nie Chuan stopped suddenly when he pressed his knees, and the two of them rushed to the front of Nie Chuan suddenly, but Nie Chuan pursed his lips The corner flicks the ball back to the right.

Ewing took the ball, took two steps back, and came to the three-point line.

Ujt's center Cook rushed to intercept, and Carlo blocked in front of him, defending unremittingly.

Ewing took off, and the ball was much faster than before.

Just when the audience lamented that Ewing didn't need to be so eager to make a shot, the ball went into the basket very smartly.

Ewing looked at Carlo, raised his chin, and mouthed: Thank you.

This section of the game is over, dk broke the control of ujt and led by four points.

Everyone returned to their seats one after another. Nie Chuan raised his face to drink water. He turned his face to look at Rees who was calm and looked aside. Thinking of the breakthroughs and cuts he made before, he thought this guy was so handsome.Nie Chuan smiled, but Reese reached out and rubbed his head.

"Don't laugh when you drink water. Be careful when you spit it out."

"No way..." Before Nie Chuan finished speaking, someone choked him and started coughing.

"Hahaha, Nie Chuan! How about we prepare a baby bottle for you to drink next time?" Carlo laughed heartlessly.

"Is your mind okay?" Ewing frowned, and Carlo hugged the back of his head subconsciously, but Ewing didn't mean to hit him, but said coolly, "It's stupid enough to hit you on the head again." , I'm going to lose my mind."

The commentators of the game are also discussing enthusiastically.

Robert appreciated this game very much: "So far, both teams have played at a very high level. Ujt's defense and udk's breakthrough, this is the spear and the shield.

"UDK is currently leading UJT by four points. Although such a lead will bring a certain psychological advantage in the game, we all know that anything can happen until the last moment." Espison looked at Engley, "Engri, what do you think?"

"I'm thinking, how will the 'Old Sparrow' arrange for the next quarter? Obviously, blindly emphasizing the zone defense is not enough to stop DK's offensive medicine Shizifei. Ujt's tactics need to be adjusted."

Robert and Espenson agreed with Engley's point of view.

When the next quarter started, Nie Chuan was surprised that Manning no longer defended Nie Chuan, but rushed to the basket.

Small forward Jonathan dribbled the ball into DK's free throw line, and was about to shoot after jumping off. Rees rushed over. No one could see his speed clearly, so he dropped the ball.

This hot pot did not weaken Ujt's offensive. Just as Carlo was about to catch the ball from Rees, the opponent's point guard took the ball away first.

"It's a wonderful move." Owen propped his head and said softly.

Nie Chuan quickly rushed to defend the opponent's point guard, but the opponent's point guard passed the ball to the point guard, and the point guard took off. Ewing caught up, but he didn't have time to intercept the ball. DK's score advantage was only One point left.

This cooperation won a burst of applause.

"Ujt seems to give up marking in the second half and switch to attacking."

"Of course, without an active attack, do you expect the opponent to give them points?"

"Actually, don't you think that the reason why ujt played conservatively in the first half was to slow down DK's speed, narrow the point difference, and make it a showdown in this quarter."

Not only the audience, but even Nie Chuan on the field felt it.

Fortunately, Rees kept cutting off the connection between ujt with speed and suppressed their scoring. Otherwise, dk and they were tired of running but could not find a suitable stealing position, and ujt would widen the point difference.

Nie Chuan exhaled and glanced at the score. It was 45 to 49. In the first 3 minutes, ujt not only recovered the lost points, but even took the lead.

He has to do something, can't let ujt lead the way all the time.

Moreover, Reese's full-court running range is very large, which will consume a lot of his physical strength.

If possible, Nie Chuan hopes that Reese can save his speed until the last 3 minutes to defeat ujt. Of course, the premise is that dk can guarantee the advantage in the first 3 minutes of the game.

Manning, Jonathan, and Cook are indeed very good players, but in terms of individual strength, they have not reached the level of Owen or Ralvin.So why do they make dk feel so difficult... because of their movement.

Off-ball running is very important to the game. Although every player knows it, everyone pays more attention to their own abilities, ignoring the importance of occupying a favorable position on the field to receive the ball.Of course, it's not that dk is not good at this, it's just that today they met ujt who is even better at it.

What should I do?

Nie Chuan felt as if he had no room for development.

At this time, Coach Gordon called for a timeout.

Surprised expressions appeared in the audience.

Engley said: "It seems that since the regular season, DK has rarely called a stop in the middle of the game."

"There is no way to do this. When ujt enters the offensive state, dk obviously has a feeling that he can't grasp the focus. If there is no timeout at this time, dk will have no chance to readjust the state."

When he came to the court and stopped running, Nie Chuan suddenly felt very tired.

This is something I have never felt since entering the regular season.

It seems that whatever you do is useless.

"Where do you think DK should focus if he wants to find his own rhythm?" Engli asked Robert.

Robert rubbed his chin: "In fact, Rhys Reddington has been in the state. He may be the only player in dk whose rhythm has not been affected by ujt. So I look forward to the next quarter where he can lead dk out of the game. Dilemma."

"However, I think that if DK really wants to turn defeat into victory, it is not enough to have Reece Reddington alone. Reece is good at cutting and cutting. For example, if ujt is an artist, then Reece is just a critic. He can only Reacting to ujt, not being able to get ahead of ujt. What dk needs is someone to create a new rhythm for this game."

Coach Gordon's expression was serious. He didn't reprimand anyone, but just said to Reese: "You and Allen are the most familiar. I believe you know what to say to make him understand what he is going to do."

Nie Chuan was stunned. Did he do something wrong?

All eyes were on Nie Chuan.

It made him feel extremely heavy.

Rees came in front of him, pressed his head into his chest, and said in a cold voice: "Don't think about it. What Coach Gordon means is not that you did anything wrong, but that you are the key to victory .”

Nie Chuan's eyes were closed, his hands were naturally hanging by his sides, but Reese's strong heartbeat could be heard by his ears.

"Xiao Chuan."

"Ok?"

"Do you think your opponent is basketball, or people?"

"Of course people."

"Then don't just stare at the ball and run."

At that moment, all the voices in the audience disappeared, only Rees remained.

It was just a simple sentence, and Nie Chuan's brain became extremely clear.

"I understand."

When the game started again, Nie Chuan left Reese's arms and walked onto the court.

"Oh, did you see that Rees hugged Nie Chuan just now! It seems to be comforting him?"

"I used to think Reese of DK was cold and cold, but I didn't expect that there would be times to comfort others!"

Nie Chuan exhaled, because of Reese's hug, he became the focus of the audience at this moment.

Ujt's point guard took the ball to attack again, Jonathan and Manning were on his left front and the other was on his right back.

Nie Chuan did not directly rush forward to stop the opponent's point guard, but stepped back slightly, forming a defensive formation with Reese in front and behind.

He knew that on the left front side, if Jonathan got the ball, it would not be so easy for him to break into the basket with Rees checking in, and he only had to guard UJT's point guard.
