I'm not really a brutalist striker

Chapter 171 171. The Stunned Buck!
For the Hawks, Mike Woodson also made a substitution.Nash, Derek Anderson and Rasheed Wallace are back on the court, replacing Smush Parker, Person, and Crawford, and the starting five are all back on the court, ready to smash The confidence of the Bucks.

This season, the Eagles don't know what a defensive battle is. Every game is won with an all-conquering offense. The scoring average is second only to the Dallas Mavericks, ranking second in the league.

What Mike Woodson pursues is a defensive counterattack that is mobilized to the extreme with speed.The opponents are forced to make defensive adjustments with intensive attacks like raindrops. As long as the opponent's game rhythm is skewed by the Eagles, then half of the game has been won.

Due to his age, Bucks player Kukoc didn't play a lot in the regular season.But after entering the playoffs, the frequency of Terry Porter's use of Kukoc began to increase significantly.And Kukoc also has a long face, kicking over the coffin board pressing on his body with one kick, becoming the key player for the Bucks when they are chasing points in adversity.

Kukoc's performance reminded Suter of Iguodala playing for the Golden State Warriors in an alternate universe.Both of them pretended to be dead in the regular season, but they rejuvenated in an instant in the playoffs, which can be called one of the five miracles in the NBA league.

The game continued, and Damon Jones and Brian Skinner, who had just played, played pick and roll from the left.Jones took the ball and changed direction to break through. With the offensive rhythm, he passed Steve Nash, who had just appeared on the court and hadn't reacted, and scored a layup. 41:32.

Nash was a little slow to react to the pick-and-roll. He thought that Damon Jones would probably pass the ball.I didn't expect Jones to play so resolutely when he first came on the court. This is not like his state in the first quarter of the game.

The Eagles attacked, and as the Bucks' defense became more targeted, it was not so easy for Suter to catch the ball.Mason continued to fight close to the body without the ball, and put an elbow on his waist.When Suter was running, Mason's hands were also not clean. After pushing, he quickly bypassed the screen and tried his best to keep up with Suter.

As soon as Suter received the pass, small forward Kukoc rushed forward instantly, forming a double-team with Mason who was chasing him, and did not give Suter any chance to attack with the ball.

Seeing the excitement of the Bucks players as if they had rabies, Suter hurriedly passed the ball to Nash who came to meet him, and Nash then transferred the ball to Wallace on the right.Brian Skinner ambushed near the penalty area in advance and blocked Wallace's breakthrough route, and Mason withdrew from the penalty area and immediately formed a pincer attack on Wallace.

The Bucks' defense speed is very fast, and the mobility immediately becomes different after changing to a small lineup.Dunk King Mason as the fourth position will reduce the height of the Bucks inside, but it can greatly increase the rotation speed of the Bucks.To deal with a team like the Eagles that frequently moves the ball, mobility is far greater than height.

Terry Porter is a very smart coach. As early as the player period, his total career assists ranked 15th in the NBA's historical assists list.Coaching the Bucks as a head coach for the first time this season, Terry Porter led the team to the playoffs, proving to the outside world that his smart golf quotient can also be qualified for the position of head coach.

He knows how to use the defensive system to make up for the lack of personal ability of the players. Although it sounds simple to pinch the star, if the player does not make mistakes on the court, the head coach must plan the flanking time in advance.

The key to the Bucks' defensive tactics is Desmond Mason's mobility.Terry Porter doesn't expect him to be able to defend Souter one-on-one. As long as he can make good use of his speed advantage to pinch the star, the pressure on the Bucks' defensive end will drop significantly.

From 75 to 12.4, Desmond Mason started his fantastic performance. He played 4.7 games in the regular season and scored 1.4 points, 1 rebounds, 46.3 assists and [-] steal, and his shooting percentage was [-]%.

He won the NBA slam dunk title in the first year of his career. With his explosive physical fitness and highly entertaining slam dunk performance, he became one of the strikers with the fastest fans at that time.

Mason has always been able to play the four position, and now the weight is the weight of a power forward, and can carry Rasheed Wallace outside the penalty area.Wallace spins to the baseline and passes the ball to Derek Anderson on the wing, who gets a nice open shot.

Double-teaming stars will inevitably relax the defense of role players. Michael Reed did not rotate to help defense, he must always keep an eye on Souter.Anderson's open three-pointer missed the basket, and Kukoc grabbed the rebound.

Derek Anderson is a very touchy player. When his shots are accurate, his scoring is even scarier than Jordan. When he is not accurate, he can kill the Eagles coaching staff.Thanks to Anderson's strong psychological quality, he can adjust his offensive state in time, otherwise the Eagles would not use him as a starter for a whole season.

After taking the rebound, Kukoc showed a terrifying passing vision. He passed the ball accurately to his frontcourt teammates with a long one-handed pass, and caught the Eagles by surprise in the way the Eagles are best at.

Damon Jones made a fast break from the left to get rid of Steve Nash, and caught the ball with one hand and scored. 41:34.

In order to return to the defense, Suter almost ran away with his shoes smoking, but he still failed to catch up.The Bucks' small lineup is very fast, and they played a good overall performance in the two rounds after their debut.

The Bucks fans in front of the TV were a little excited, and finally saw a pleasing offense since the start of the game.After watching the Bucks' performance in the first quarter, many people thought they were cold, but the Bucks were always able to find opportunities in adversity, showing the tactical qualities that a playoff team should have.

Charles Barkley commented: "Kukoc's sword is not old, this is a standard quarterback long pass. After the goal, he looked in a good mood, as if he had regained the demeanor he had when he played for the Bulls."

Kenny Smith said: "The Bucks played really well in the second quarter, but they still have to defend against the Eagles' offense if they want to win today. When the Eagles' starting five tigers are on the court, the offensive end is almost unstoppable, especially the Vultures. , this guy is as unsolvable as a nuclear warhead."

The Eagles attacked, and Nash passed the ball to Stephen Jackson on the right.Jackson turned his back to catch the ball, turned to the left, and relied on his physical advantage to press Kukoc to throw the ball and score. 43:34.

Seeing that Kukoc was still defending him after the Bucks made lineup adjustments, Jackson planned to make a few more shots.He singled out Kukoc to bully the old man, and he has advantages in strength and speed.The Bucks' two inside towers have become one tower, and the shot-blocking ability of inside players has dropped significantly. Jackson is not afraid of being blocked after he goes deep into the penalty area.

Terry Porter has no good way to do this. Although a small lineup can increase mobility on the court, the ability to protect the frame will also be greatly reduced.Unless the Bucks can add one more player and play six-on-five, Terry Porter must choose between pros and cons.

The Bucks attacked, Kukoc pulled to the left three-point line and stood still, and Brian Skinner in the middle gave Michael Reed a screen.

Reid finally made a strong breakthrough with the ball, using a screen to get rid of Derek Anderson and enter the penalty area.He faced the chasing Rasheed Wallace and forced a layup. The two collided in the air, and the referee blew his whistle immediately.

Michael Reid used a pull bar in the air, and his body was almost pushed out of bounds.After avoiding the block, he switched his left hand to his right hand and scored a layup.

Damon Jones pulled Reed up from the ground, and the latter didn't have any celebrations, and the silence was a little scary.

From this point, it is not difficult to see that there is a problem with his mentality, and he thinks it is better not to celebrate, but to keep a low profile and score the ball, so as to avoid the madmen on the opposite side from attacking him like in the first quarter.

Michael Reid made a steady free throw after high-fiving his teammates. 43:37.

The Hawks attacked, and Stephen Jackson began to run in circles, constantly looking for opportunities.He currently feels good, and Kukoc wants to make a few more shots in the face of the defensive hips.But no matter how he goes around, there will always be players on the opposite side on Kukoc's defense route. After consideration, he still chose to pass the ball.

Nash saw the opportunity on the left and hoisted the ball to Souter immediately.After receiving the ball, Suter saw that the Bucks players were assisting him in the defense. In desperation, he turned around from the low position to the middle and forcibly threw a shot.Although the ball missed, Suter grabbed the offensive rebound with his terrifying bounce speed, pressed Brian Skinner's body and scored with two hands. "Bang", 45:37.

The Bucks' defense cannot be without loopholes, and Brian Skinner's double-teaming will not work at all.

Suter's bounce and bullet speed are amazing.Brian Skinner couldn't jump up and could only push him out of the penalty area as much as possible, but facing Suter, who also has outstanding core strength, this level of physical confrontation could not limit Suter's dunk at all.

"Roar!"

After landing, Suter yelled at the Bucks bench, as if he was provoking Terry Porter.Tell him, what can you do if you pinch me, instead of just watching me wreak havoc on the basket!
The Bucks attacked, and Kukoc pulled back from beyond the three-point line to attract defensive firepower for his teammates.

Michael Reid played a pick-and-roll with Skinner in the middle, and the breakthrough was double-teamed by the two.Skinner was emptied in the high post and received the pass, took aim and hit a long two-point jumper. 45:39.

The Bucks coach gave Skinner applause, the blue-collar can occasionally hit the shot.However, shooting is not his conventional weapon. The average number of mid-range shots per game is only 1.4. The Eagles have no problem with letting go of his defensive thinking.After all, who doesn't eat dumplings during Chinese New Year?

The Eagles attacked, and as soon as Nash held the ball at halftime, he signaled the others to pull away, and chose to single out Damon Jones on the left.I saw him dribbling the ball behind his right hand, turning around in an instant, and relying on his speed advantage, he easily broke into the basket and hit the basket. 47:39.

Since Souter attracted most of the Bucks' defense alone, when Nash entered the penalty area, it was obviously too late for the Bucks insiders to make up the defense, so they could only watch Nash take two points lightly.

Souter, Stephen Jackson, and Nash all opened up, and they relied on their personal ability to face the defense to force the score. One-on-one is an opportunity.

Jacqui Vaughn stood by the bench and waved a towel passionately, leading the bench to cheer for his teammates crazily. He almost beat the Bucks with thousands of horses alone, and he can be called the king of the drinking fountain cheerleading team.

Suter reminded Vaughn in private more than once that he must be active in the nationally broadcast game.In this way, even if there is not much playing time, it can be remembered by fans, and it is also easier to obtain scrap contracts offered by other teams.

Regardless of the amount of the contract, at least when everyone participated in the competition as the patron saint of the drinking fountains, Jacqui Vaughan, who is good at activating the atmosphere, had already won at the starting line.

"Come to me for a one-on-one challenge. Why do you look like a coward? You don't dare to challenge my defense head-on. What about the physical fitness that you promised? Is this the strength of the NB dunk king?" Watching Desmond Mason spout trash talk.

After holding back for almost half the game, Suter felt that if he didn't say anything, he would be held insane.Confronting Suter is a kind of torture. The reason why Ben Wallace publicly stated in front of the media that he and Suter are at odds is because he can't stand Suter's trash talk.

If it weren't for the fear of head coach Larry Brown's authority, Big Ben would have started fighting with Suter as early as the regular season!

Hearing Suter yelling trash at him, Mason first looked at Suter from head to toe, and then silently let go of his clenched fist.

Mason would never admit that he was afraid of being beaten, but felt that conflicts with people like Su Te were unnecessary.After all, who is not a good player who abides by the law!
I, Desmond Mason, abide by the laws and regulations, and I swear that I will never live with the violence on the field!

"Shut your mouth, I don't want to talk to you!" Mason waved his hand pretending not to care, and quickly ran forward after serving.

The other party said that he didn't want to talk to you, and rolled his eyes with a complicated expression.

In the positional battle, Desmond Mason cut to the basket after a pick-and-roll, but was blocked by Suter immediately.This time, his intention to pass the ball to Michael Reid was too obvious, and Suter suddenly jumped out from behind and broke the basketball.

A beast on the court, Suter is explosive.Raising his hand like Mason's almost writing the passing line on his face is an insult to Suter.

Although Suter's steal data this season can't even rank in the top ten in the league, but he will be beaten if he is conceited, and he will stand at attention when he is beaten.As soon as Suter stole the ball, the opponent couldn't hold it back. When Mason turned around and tried to get the ball back, Suter had already run halfway.

His last 3/4 field sprint test only took 3.16 seconds. This speed is unmatched by inside players, even if outside players are counted, Suter can firmly rank among the top ten in the active league.

When the Bucks players reacted, Suter had already entered the penalty area like lightning.

Knowing that no one can catch up with him, Suter calculated the distance and jumped with both feet near the small penalty area. He passed the ball to his left hand with his right hand in the air, and used a crotch that can only be seen in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest. Switch hands and dunk the ball hard into the basket. "Bang"! 49:39!

After landing, Suter tore the jersey with his hands, and roared like a beast.The Bucks bench was stunned, and the head coach Terry Porter fell on the chair with a shocked face.
