Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 766 Problems with the Knicks

When he came to the frontcourt, Billups quickly greeted him and jumped directly to the three-point line, because everyone knew that Qin Hao was accurate in three-pointers, and he might have shot directly if he defended too far behind.

Qin Hao stopped and took a look at the situation on the court: "In addition to Billups, Fields is also staring at me, and it seems that he is ready to come up to help defend at any time."

This is to be expected.

With the level of coach D'Antoni, it is impossible not to arrange targeted tactics, because obviously the strongest point of the 76ers is Qin Hao.

If only Billups was allowed to go forward and restricted Qin Hao's three-point shot, then with Qin Hao's speed, it would be easy to pass Billups. So coach D'Antoni emphasized that once he saw Qin Hao going single, he would immediately assist in defense. The purpose of assisting defense was to limit Qin Hao's breakthrough.

Immediately, Qin Hao tried it out, and Fields immediately rushed over to help defend.

"Sure enough." Qin Hao chuckled and immediately scored the ball and passed it to Iverson.

Iverson is experienced, taking advantage of Fields' pounce to help defend Qin Hao, he took the ball without pausing, and immediately made a breakthrough, not to directly attack the frame, after all, there are still people inside the opponent. However, this can further tear the Knicks' defense and destroy their defensive formation.

Although Iverson's deterrence is not as good as before, but with his excellent experience, he can still play a role on the court. He took two steps forward and then scored the ball and gave it to Nene.

Nene feinted with the ball, then slapped forward with both hands, raising his center of gravity, and knocked away Jeffries, who couldn't take off, and he made a layup.

2:0.

"Well, that's it." Coach Luke nodded secretly.

Knicks offense.

Billups came to the frontcourt, first asked for a pick-and-roll, tried to break through the pick-and-roll, but the effect was not good, Nene stepped forward and delayed very quickly, he is not the kind of slow-moving insider.

Seeing this, Billups gestured, gave the ball to Fields, motioned for his teammates to pull away and let Fields single against Iverson.

Iverson stepped forward, Fields took a tentative step, suddenly accelerated to break through, Iverson retreated, and Fields made a sudden pull-up jumper and shot in front of Iverson.

Swish!

With a bang, the ball went in.

"Hey." Coach Luke sighed inwardly. He was worried about this before. The Knicks were obviously prepared. Fields was 201 cm tall, nearly 20 cm taller than Iverson. Vitality, Iverson has some disadvantages to prevent him.

On the defensive end, Iverson is indeed a problem, but Coach Luke looked at the bench, somewhat helpless, and Lou Wei is not expected to be much better.

Lou Wei is not tall, and his defense has always been a disadvantage.

"Pay attention to help defense." Coach Luke shouted on the court.

The 76ers counterattacked. After Qin Hao arrived in the frontcourt, he still encountered an assist defense and gave it to Iverson. This time, Iverson did not pass the ball, but shot a jumper directly.

boom!

Too bad he still didn't get in.

On the defensive end, Fields wanted to single against Iverson again, but this time it wasn't so easy.

Fields itself is not a strong point in scoring, so he has an advantage in height, and once he encounters a help defense, he has only one option to pass.

"Give it to me." Anthony ran back for the ball, glanced at the basket, then made a three-threat, and tapped his right foot earlier.

Against an All-Star player like Anthony, Brand was still a little nervous, not to mention that Anthony was known as an "offensive kaleidoscope".

That is, this half-step is enough for Anthony.

"Shh!"

With a soft click, Anthony made a pull-up jumper.

This is Anthony's specialty, his signature move, the dry pull-up jumper after the triple threat. It doesn't look complicated, but it's hard to guard against. Because if you don't retreat, he will break through immediately, but if you retreat, even if it's only half a step, it's enough for Anthony to make a shot.

"With Brand's strength, it's hard to defend against Anthony." Qin Hao shook his head, glanced at Xiao Si who was not far away, then took the ball in the backcourt and started to attack.

In the next few rounds, Qin Hao did not shoot himself, but attracted defenses. The Knicks did not dare to let Qin Hao go. As soon as they saw Qin Hao attacking with the ball, they immediately helped defend.

But once you go up to assist defense, there will be problems with defense.

It's just that Iverson's hand is still not very good. After all, he hasn't participated in the official competition for a year, and his strength is not as good as before, but Nene and Brand performed well.

Nene had the absolute upper hand against Jeffreys. When Qin Hao put the ball in his hands, Nene directly played singles. He faltered and then broke through. The speed was not fast, but Jeffreys couldn't stop it. He was directly knocked open by Nei Nei, and he could only watch Nei Nei's hands explode.

The coach D'Antoni frowned at this. He sent Jeffries as an attempt. He wanted to try to change from "copycat running and bombing" to "positional warfare mode".

Unfortunately, Jeffreys can be limited, embarrassingly useful.

"Hey, I knew I shouldn't have traded Felton away." Coach D'Antoni smiled bitterly, regretting not asking the team's management to keep Felton.

Before Anthony's arrival, the Knicks were a "fake run and gun". Felton cooperated with Stoudemire. Naturally, Felton could not be comparable to Nash, but he would feed Stoudemire with the ball, at least let Stoudemire play very well. . After all, Stoudemire just played "run-and-gun" in the Suns, and he liked this kind of game rhythm.

But Anthony and Billups are more accustomed to playing positional warfare.

In positional battles, Anthony can play singles with the ball in a high position or on the flanks, his triple threat can have the ultimate lethality, and his skills can be released.

Therefore, Anthony + Billups is a little different from Stoudemire. While used to playing positional warfare, he likes to play, run and shoot, and Billups will not feed Stoudemire as crazy as Felton.

Anthony and Billups will not adapt if they hit and run, and Stoudemire will not adapt if they are in a positional attack, which makes it difficult for the Knicks' Big3 to have a chemical reaction.

The idea of ​​coach D'Antoni was to try to reconcile the two sides and combine "position attack" and "run and fire", but it turned out that the Knicks couldn't do it.

"Request a substitution."

Coach D'Antoni asked for a substitution, replacing Jeffries and replacing him with Sean Williams.

Sean Williams is 206 centimeters tall and plays as a striker. After he was deployed, the Knicks dropped the height. They tried to attack from the position for a while, but the effect was not good. They were always at a disadvantage, and the score was not good behind the 76ers.

So I had to change it, lower the height, increase the speed, and try to "run and bomb" instead.

"Instead of 'running and shooting', then Anthony and Billups' two-point threat will be discounted." Seeing the Knicks' substitution, Qin Hao couldn't help laughing, "Sacrificing Anthony and Billups. Lupus, to achieve Stoudemire, this is not a good choice."
