Chapter 55 Mutual Explosion! (4000 words for recommendation ticket)
Knicks bench.

After the old Nelson called the timeout, he couldn't help standing up, and looked at Malone very fieryly.

Before playing the game, he knew that Ma Long's style of play was very good for him.

After playing the game, Old Nelson found that Malone's style of play was more to his liking than he expected!
Old Nelson brought the data.

In the first few minutes of the first quarter, Malone made 4 of 4 shots and scored 9 points.

This scoring efficiency is not the most terrifying.

The most frightening thing is that apart from the first dunk, Malone is the most common shot at other times!

Of course, Old Nelson could see that it was not that simple.

The confrontation before catching the ball, and the elbow when turning back, these small details are the reason why Malone's shooting rate is so outrageous.

But the most important thing is Malone's height and arm length!

With a passer like Rhodes and Clifford and Hawkins opening up space, Malone, who has a huge height advantage as a center forward, can't defend against his shots at all!
Malone's incomprehensibility is even more desperate than Jordan's from a certain angle!

This is the inside line he wants!

Old Nelson was hungry.

He has always believed that an insider with a size advantage and a dislocation effect in the same position, if his shooting ability is superb, will naturally have a super strategic role.

Not many resources are required.

Once they stand there, their own height guarantees that it will be difficult to defend, and they can exert a huge containment force.

The team has such a player, it is really easy to play offensively.

Old Nelson thought of dozens of tactics.

It's just that there are too few such players.

Clifford of the Trail Blazers is half.

It's a pity that he is too old and has been completely stereotyped. There is not much talent to be discovered, and his body size does not have an advantage in the same position.

When the old Nelson was still in the Warriors last season, after bringing in Donyell Marshall, he wanted to train him in this direction.

Half of the success was achieved, and the other half was because Donyell Marshall's talent was mediocre, and his upper limit was too low to meet his requirements.

The Knicks' Ewing has both talent and strength.

But body size has no dislocation effect.

Ewing's injuries caused his tonnage to be insufficient.

These will make Ewing prone to problems at critical moments.

For example, last year's finals.

Many players have more or less problems, only Ma Long has all of them!
This talent visible to the naked eye is too greedy.

Old Nelson looked at Carlesimo enviously.

I knew before the summer, I went to the Trail Blazers to find a job
Old Nelson smacked his lips, stopped thinking about it, and began to concentrate on adjusting his tactics.

The Blazers got off to a great start.

Although it is not the most powerful twin towers, only Ma Long is enough to cause huge internal destructive power.

If that's okay, after all, Nelson knew before the game that the Knicks' insiders couldn't limit Malone.

But the three-pointer just now was really unexpected to him, and he opened up the point difference all at once.

Both sides played at a slow pace.

Although it is not an iron-blooded defense.

But in a slow-paced game with a low number of rounds, this point difference is already dangerous.

Ma Long's three-pointer is likely to pave the way for this game!
There must be a way to get it back.

Although Ma Long is not easy to guard against, he can't just let it go.

Pat Riley, that pretentious guy, still has a few fortunes left over from the past few years.

Although these things have greatly affected the old Nelson's transformation of the Knicks, they can also be used at this time.

The coaching staff also has someone to help him.

Pat Riley's disciple, Jeff Van Gundy, did not go to Miami with his teacher, but stayed as a defensive assistant for the Knicks.

With his assistance, Old Nelson began to adjust his defense.

On the other side, the Trail Blazers are also making adjustments.

In fact, there is nothing to adjust.

Ma Long played as stable as ever.

The center is C, which is the engine. Malone can stabilize the Trail Blazers and play well.

The physical condition of Clifford and others also recovered from the rest of the previous day, and the Trail Blazers played out what they had imagined during training.

Carlesimo wanted to talk about chicken soup.

At this time, Carlisle made a constructive suggestion: "We can try to play a little more fast break."

"Fast attack?"

Carlesimo touched his chin: "Is there no advantage in speed?"

"We don't have much advantage in outside speed, and Malone's straight-line speed is similar to Ewing."

Carlisle said: "But Clifford vs. Oakley, the speed advantage is too great!"

"As soon as Ma Long gets the rebound, he immediately sends a long pass. We have one more Clifford in the frontcourt, and the possibility of playing more and less offense is very high!"

"Although the Knicks may not have so much effect after being prepared, as long as the fast break is scored two or three times, the score can be completely opened, and the chances of winning this game will also be greatly increased!"

Carlesimo thought it was the same reason, and began to make arrangements.

Back from the timeout, the Knicks have the ball.

After passing the ball for a while, Ewing pulled Malone high and dealt the card to Derek Harper who slipped into the baseline.

Derrick Harper made a layup.

7:11.

This targeted attack was very smooth.

Ewing is determined to be a tool man, and Malone really can't help it.

Although he is regarded as a super insider by media fans, it is only because of his talent that he brushes the threshold.

Against a super center like Ewing, Malone can only reduce his efficiency at most, it is impossible to completely limit it, let alone prevent Ewing from supporting the pass.

"That's the tactic, why does it smell like a Spurs?"

Malone feels that the Knicks are playing offensively now, which is very similar to the Spurs' tactics when they were old and dull, very team.

But tactics are things like you copy me and I copy you.

A clever coach cooks according to the ingredients.

Ewing's technical characteristics are partially similar to Duncan's, and it is normal to have similar tactics.

Offensive and defensive transitions, the Blazers did not initiate a fast break.

The Knicks returned to defense very quickly, and the fast break is also looking for opportunities, rather than rushing forward.

The Blazers slowly launched a positional battle.

Ma Long jogged forward, and before he entered the three-point line, he felt malicious eyes.

Turning around, it's the Knicks' zoo trio. Bah, it's the villain trio, Ewing, Oakley and Anthony Mason Jr.

He used his pectoralis major to think and knew that these three guys were going to start targeting him.

It's nothing more than the Bulls' double-team trick, the old routine used by the Knicks to deal with Olajuwon in last year's Finals.

Ma Long raised his heart, and when he fell to the waist, he saw Anthony Mason Jr. coming around.

Ewing was also eager to move behind.

If it is not restricted by the rules, they must directly double-team.

——In the 90s, it was allowed to double-team the ball holder, double-team or three-team, but it is absolutely not allowed to double-team the player without the ball, which is an illegal defense.

However, this is the same as the pseudo-joint defense, and it depends on the referee.

This game is the Trail Blazers' home game, so the Knicks can only come honestly.

The last game was the Bulls' home court, and the Bulls can play like this with a whistle.

To put it bluntly, in addition to looking at players and tactics in defense, the rules themselves are also an important factor.

Defense around the front is the best and only way to defend against big centers like Malone and Dayao.

Since there is no solution for you to catch the ball, let you not catch the ball. The general idea is this.

But Ma Long is not Dayao after gaining weight.

Malone, who has both speed and flexibility, does not only play in the low post.

Malone pulled directly from the low post and ran to set a pick-and-roll for Rhodes.

After the pick-and-roll, Malone cut in.

Hit a three-pointer, Anthony Mason Jr. didn't dare to let it go, followed Malone to cut to the baseline, and pulled it out from the right to the free throw line.

Keeping in motion all the time, it was difficult for Anthony Mason Jr. to keep going around the front. Malone easily received the ball from Rhodes at the free throw line and made a shooting posture.

Anthony Mason Jr. stepped forward, and Ewing was also preparing to attack.

But Ma Long's move was just a fake move.

He faked a real pass, and after attracting Ewing, the basketball was hoisted to the paint.

Rhodes sneaked out from the bottom line, received a pass from Malone, and escaped Ewing's hasty block throw and succeeded!

7:13.

Exactly the same goal as the Knicks' offense just now!

This is not a live copy.

This is a tactic specially set up by the first assistant coach Carlisle after Sabonis was ill and the Twin Towers were missing.

It looks similar, but it can only be said that when the center forward has great deterrence on the offensive end and also has the ability to respond, the tactics he will choose are just a little bit.
With the experience of the last ball, the Knicks are very active in running and passing.

Ewing sent a wave of fake faxes this time.

When Anthony Mason Jr. squeezed Harvey Grant inside and drew Clifford to shrink, Ewing pretended to pass to Oakley.

When Malone, who was cheating, moved his center of gravity to steal, Ewing suddenly received the ball and took a jump to shoot directly at the basket.

Bunny jump!
This time Malone shifted his focus more, and Ewing's shot was too sudden. It was too late for him to block the shot, so he could only watch the basketball hit.

9:13.

Ma Long bit the collar of his jersey, and all the complacency that had just risen disappeared.

With his current strength, it is really impossible to completely defend against a super center like Ewing, at most he can only achieve mutual explosions.

The offensive and defensive performance at the beginning of the game was more because Ewing was too unfamiliar with him.

After playing a few rounds and gaining an understanding, it is impossible for him alone to stop Ewing, who is a textbook center, from attacking.

Ma Long thought to himself: "The skill of bunny jumping is quite incomprehensible, but it is really ugly."

There is a far difference between ornamental performance and McGrady's dry pull in the future.

The Blazers attack.

Malone received a pass from Rhodes in the low post, leaning his back against Anthony Mason Jr. and feinted.

Anthony Mason Jr. doesn't eat Akira.

But it doesn't matter, Malone still has teammates.

Rhodes, Hawkins and others moved to tear up the Knicks defense.

In the end, Hawkins ran out of position under the cover of Clifford.

Malone pretended to pass the ball, but Anthony Mason Jr. changed his center of gravity when he was cheated.

This time, the badge of the cut-in scorer was brightened, and the explosive power was added. After knocking Anthony Mason Jr. back a big step!

Ma Long used his strength to turn over and hit the board at a 45-degree angle!

9 is better than 15!

Ewing didn't even have time to pinch the ball!

Because Malone is really likely to pass on.

Hawkins also really has a basket.

The Trail Blazers have too many tactical options, and they need to think too much when defending.

This also gave Malone time to make a move.

Basketball is a five-person sport, and it is only comfortable when teammates play hard.

Looking back, the Knicks attacked.

Ma Long raised the intensity of confrontation this time.

When Ewing was playing back, Malone, Rodman, Oakley and others experienced small movements and elbows together.

It can't limit you, but it can reduce your efficiency and disgust you!
What is defense?
Defense is about people following people, not following the ball.

Defense is interference + physical confrontation, the purpose is to disrupt the opponent's rhythm, consume the opponent's physical strength, disturb the opponent's mentality, not just steal and block shots.

I don't know if it's because Ma Long is very talented in fighting, and he learns small movements quickly, which is no worse than an old ball ruffian.

Ewing can also be considered to be experienced, having come out of strong winds and waves.

But Malone's defense changed the rhythm too suddenly, and Ewing was still seriously affected, and the rabbit jumped into the iron!

opportunity!

Malone grabbed the rebound and sent a long pass directly!

The basketball flew towards Rhodes as if equipped with precision guidance.

Rod made a pass to the paint after turning to attract Derek Harper.

Clifford, who had no sense of presence in the first quarter, suddenly killed.

Oakley was still eating his ass in the back.

Hawkins also holds John Starks back.

With no one defending in front of him, Clifford caught the ball and made a layup!

9 is better than 17!

Not good!

Old Nelson's heart sank, and he stood on the sidelines and reminded loudly.

Although the Knicks were on guard, Malone successfully blocked Oakley once and successfully played a fast break.

The Blazers picked up the tempo, playing better and better in the next few minutes of the first quarter.

Fortunately, Ewing stood up and kept hitting the Knicks to stop the bleeding.

The gorilla handwork is also excellent.

Malone used small movements and elbow skills. Ewing's shooting was not used to it at first, but his hit rate was maintained after that!

But just like this, there is still no way to close the gap.

Because Ewing can only interact with Malone at best.

The two are equivalent to Duizi, and he can't catch up with the points in singles alone.

And with the exhaustion of physical strength, Ewing's hit rate also began to decline.

Ewing wants to play in the low post, but Malone's frame protection is so good that it is more difficult to attack than to shoot.

Not only that, Clifford is on the flank, and Hawkins and Harvey Grant strongly interfere with the passing route, making the pass much more difficult.

After being intercepted and turned into a fast break, Ewing had no choice but to come out of the low post and continue to be a tool man.

The Knicks played a team offense.

The defensive end also imposed an iron-blooded siege on Malone.

As long as Malone receives the ball, the two will double-team directly.

Even Malone, facing the Knicks' inside defense that is stronger than the Bulls, is starting to hit the iron.

But the Trail Blazers are not alone.

Malone also imitated Ewing as the center of offense, constantly attracting defenses and then distributing the ball to Clifford, Hawkins and others.

They are all team offenses, but the Blazers' offensive fluency and shooting percentage are higher than the Knicks.

Because the Blazers only need Malone to defend against Ewing.

The Knicks need at least two people to defend Malone!
With Malone's strong pull in the low post, the Blazers' offense was extremely smooth. Both Clifford and Hawkins found opportunities to hit a three-pointer each.

首节打完，靠着马龙的单节15分4篮板1助攻2盖帽，开拓者队首节就建立了11分的领先优势！

The score was 25 to 36.

The Trail Blazers are behind, leading by 11 points and entering the intermission!
　Minor modification, sorry for the delay.

　　Thanks to 'Xiao Qi Mo' for the reward of 1500 points, and to 'Setti Seti Pirate Natural Enemy' for the reward of 100 points.
