I'm not really a brutalist striker

Chapter 231 231. Beast Magician!Team basketball ceiling!
Charles Barkley sighed: "The Vulture can shoot in the middle of the three-point line. His mid-range shots are too accurate. I think his shooting level is already comparable to the top shooters in the league."

Partner Kenny Smith said with a smile: "The Nuggets will go in if they don't cooperate with the vultures inside. His mid-range shot is almost recognized as the strongest in the league. Even Nowitzki and Karl Malone are hard to match his high efficiency. .”

Charles Barkley said: "Marcus Camby is not only the Nuggets' defensive strength, but also the Nuggets' defensive weakness, because he dare not leave the penalty area. To the teammate who cuts inside, the Vulture deliberately singles on Marcus Camby's side for this point, and he doesn't guard the Vulture up and shoots."

Kenny Smith said: "I think the Hawks' style of play this season is somewhat similar to the triangle offensive tactics that Phil Jackson is good at."

Charles Barkley nodded with a smile: "That's right, the two have similar approaches but equally effective results. The singles of the triangle offense is this kind of routine, but the Eagles have integrated the advantages of the triangle offense and discarded the shortcomings of the triangle offense. Crawford's ability to attract defense is much better than Karl Malone, and his shooting is more threatening, and the Nuggets dare not let him shoot easily."

Andre Miller went to Crawford's side again to play a pick-and-roll breakthrough. Crawford, who passed the misplaced defense by rhythm, entered the basket, attracted double-teams and then gave the ball to the left baseline. Cameron- Anthony played his strengths, and made a steady hit in the open mid-range shot, 6:10.

Crawford still continues his poor defense today. Not only is there a problem with his personal ability, but he also lacks concentration.

After winning the championship with the Hawks last season, Crawford has obviously become more lazy. This is a problem that any team that wants to defend the title will face.

Mike Woodson is too lazy to talk about him, and it’s not too late to talk about him in the playoffs. Anyway, Crawford’s role in the Eagles’ tactical system is to shoot corner three-pointers. As long as his shooting percentage decline is not serious, Defensive flaws Woodson can accept.

After all, Crawford himself is not good at defense, even if he is pushed into a desperate situation, it is difficult to improve significantly.

If Crawford shoots too many shots in the regular season, Suter will have to reduce his shots. This is not conducive to Suter's competition for the MVP in the regular season. Just pass him open opportunities.

The Eagles attack.Tyronn Lue still looked as steady as an old dog, covering the ball with both hands to observe the situation, and finally passed the ball to Suter who slipped to the baseline.

Suter took the ball and dangled a shot, then changed his mind to dribble the ball in the middle, attracted Marcus Camby to defend and rushed towards the opponent. When the two bodies were about to collide, Suter suddenly came forward Turned sideways to pass the ball over Marcus Camby's crotch to the baseline.

Marcus Camby is 2 meters tall, but weighs only 11 kilograms. His legs are thin and long, and he takes a big step. Suter can easily pass the ball under his crotch.

At this time, Drogbiak was standing under the basket waiting to catch the ball. Although the way the ball came was very strange, which made him stunned for a moment, after reacting, Drogbiak still caught the ball steadily. , jumping up is a powerful dunk with both hands! 8:10.

This ball instantly ignited the Eagles' home court, and the fans stood up and cheered. The angle of this pass was very tricky. Many people only understood how the ball was passed after watching the replay on the big screen of the stadium.

At this moment, the Eagles fans seemed to see the shadow of "white chocolate" in Suter. The passes of the two were so imaginative and so coquettish.

Charles Barkley also saw it clearly after watching the replay, and said with a smile: "The Vulture actually played the pass through the crotch. You must know that the Eagles are still behind in the score, but he played it by himself."

Kenny Smith said: "The Vultures don't take their opponents seriously. They turned this game into an exhibition game. Three of the Eagles' four goals were dunks. This game is really exciting. "

Charles Barkley smiled slightly: "This is a superstar. He has enough confidence in his own strength. In the early days of his career, the Vulture conquered North American fans with his brutal style of play. It seems that this season he wants to conquer again with his elusive passing. fan."

The Nuggets' style of play this season is mainly catch and shoot. There is really no chance to let Carmelo Anthony pull to the horns for individual singles.

But the game has just begun, and the Nuggets players still try their best to run tactics to avoid falling into singles for a long time and causing Anthony's physical strength to decline seriously in the second half.

On the offensive end, Buckner relied on the screen to catch the ball, and took advantage of the time when the inside players did not switch defenses, he stopped and shot a three-pointer. The ball was snatched by Drogbiak.

The Nuggets players saw that they failed to hit and hurried back to the backcourt. Stephen Jackson held the ball to stabilize the rhythm and passed it to Tyronn Lue to reorganize the positional battle.

Since the start of the game, Marcus Camby has been following the switchbacks, has never received a pass from a teammate, and has no statistics.

The only chance to show his face on the big screen was an elusive pass from Suter under his crotch.

On the offensive end, Suter received a pass from his teammate by covering his running position. This time, Kenyon Martin came up to help defend, and Buckner double-teamed Suter in the middle.

The Nuggets didn't dare to relax their defense against Stephen Jackson. Under consideration, they chose Chris Crawford, who was unstable in short shots. Crawford's shots were not very accurate in the first two games. It is better to go short than him. Stephen Jackson, the second-in-charge of the Eagles, is strong.

Facing the sudden double-teaming by the Nuggets, Suter took advantage of the opportunity to score the ball to the left corner. Crawford did not disappoint his teammates again today, and was very well prepared. After receiving the ball, he made an open jumper and hit a three-pointer, 11:10.

Charles Barkley exclaimed excitedly: "Go-ahead! Crawford is an experienced player. He has played in the league for a long time. Although the offensive end is often not stable enough, the Nuggets choose to let him go. Smart move."

Partner Kenny Smith said: "I think the Vulture is really capable of winning the assists title in the new season. If he keeps playing like this, it will not be difficult even if he averages double figures in assists per game. He has sent three assists since the start. The team's The scoring is almost all about him."

Charles Barkley said with a smile: "His style of play is simply the core of a superstar. Tyronn Lue is really worry-free to partner with him in the backcourt. He only needs to be a defensive blue-collar, and he doesn't have to worry about organizing offense at all. .”

On the court, Tyronn Lue felt a little empty, and that feeling seemed to be painful and happy.

In the past, he always felt that the teammates around him were not strong enough to lead him to lie down and win, and he was forced to take on a lot of work that he could not do well. As a result, after joining the Hawks in the new season, Suter was too strong. Now he is in On the offensive end, he can only play soy sauce, dribbling halfway is his limit, and occasionally getting open shots from beyond the three-point line is his highlight moment, but most of the time he can only prove his value on the defensive end.

This feeling makes Tyronn Lue both excited and painful. The excited thing is that he finally has a thigh to hug. The painful thing is that he doesn't know whether he will be traded by the Eagles management one day.

The Nuggets attack, and Crawford's defense is finally strong. He quickly blocked Kenyon Martin's air cut route after the pick-and-roll, and Andre Miller passed the ball to the center. Tyronn Lue made a Instead of chasing the defense, he chose a gambling steal to block the passing route in advance, and cut off Andre Miller's pass in one go.

Tyronn Lue quickly made a fast break after stealing, glanced behind him and even Suter couldn't keep up in time, he scrambled his own small steps and scored a layup, 13:10.

Miller passed the ball to Buckner in a positional battle. Buckner feinted after receiving the ball with a screen, and failed to pass Souter with a change of direction.Buckner could only protect the basketball with both hands, and relied on the support of his teammates to hang the ball to the low position on the left.

Marcus Camby caught the ball and turned to the middle to hook, almost pressing down on Drogbiak and making a close-range shot, 13:12.

Although Marcus Camby has no offensive range, he still has a certain scoring ability at the basket. His long arms make it easy for him to score hooks. Although the shooting rate is not high, last season Can also score an average of 8.6 points per game.

His singles trick is to hook with his back, hold the ball twice, and then turn around and hit the ball with a hook. Even though his movements look very ugly, Marcus Camby's height of 2 meters 11 plus 2 Mi 28's wingspan still makes it difficult for his opponent to block this move.

The Eagles attacked, and Suter ran without the ball again. First, he made an air cut to the inside and had no chance. Finally, he pulled the ball beyond the three-point line and still did not have a good environment for receiving the ball. After a while, Tyronn Lue chose to pass the ball It was given to Stephen Jackson. Jackson stabilized and passed the ball to Tyronn Lue in the middle again.

Tyronn Lue and Crawford hit the pick-and-roll in the middle and moved to the right. At this time, Suter found Drobiak's cover on the left and took the opportunity to slip the bottom line and move to the right. Woodson's tactical thinking is very clear. He is good at Creating various passes and dislocations, Tyronn Lue did not choose to play hard on the offensive end, but after attracting Marcus Camby's defensive attention, he distributed the ball to Suter who ran to the right corner.

Marcus Camby came out to help defend, and Buckner also chased and came out to form a double-team. Suter quickly moved laterally with the ball and jumped, and passed the ball laterally in a wide range in the air to the other side of the court.

This kind of pass after jumping up is easy to make mistakes, but Suter knows that Drogbiak is there at this time, he just needs to create space for the pass, whether it can catch it is Drogbiak's problem, Drogbiak made a steady three-pointer from the wide open corner, and the ball went into the net hollow, 16:12.

So far, Suter has scored 4 points and 4 assists, forcing the Nuggets to call a timeout.

The head coach of the Nuggets is the famous George Karl, yes, the "old bastard" who has a good relationship with the Hawks general manager Rick Sander in private.

Born in 1951, George Karl is definitely one of the best basketball coaches in NBA history, and he is also one of the few NBA coaches with thousands of victories.

乔治-卡尔上一支执教的球队是02—03赛季的密尔沃基雄鹿，那个赛季乔治-卡尔率队打出了42胜40负的战绩，胜率高于50％。

However, due to conflicts with the management, George Karl finally took the initiative to resign as the head coach. Last season, Hawks general manager Rick Sander thought about hiring George Karl as the team coach, but with Mike Woodson kept getting better and better, and in the end Sander didn't hire the old jerk.

In this regard, Su Te is also grateful. If he really wants this old bastard to guide him, Su Te feels that conflicts will definitely erupt between the two.

Although Mike Woodson's coaching experience is not as rich as George Karl's, Woodson is better than a young man with a wild imagination, and he has never been an antique with a solidified thinking.

Souter and him partnered very well. The two were also teachers and friends. They would occasionally sit down and have a drink. Together, they created a perfect team atmosphere for the Eagles.

George Karl can't think of any way to limit Suter until now. Before the game, he knew that no one on the team could guard against this guy. The effect is not obvious, and it can even be said to be a failed employment.

The Eagles have staged three dunks in the Nuggets penalty area since the opening game. The Nuggets failed to defend inside and outside the end, which made George Karl feel very headache.

The Nuggets have a very deep lineup this season, but they are still not as good as the Hawks in various positions. Although they have been in a stalemate with the Hawks since the beginning of the game, they are still unable to do what they want on the defensive end.

If you continue to play at this pace, when the Nuggets players feel power outages, there is a high probability that it will be the moment when the Nuggets encounter Waterloo.

In addition, the Nuggets have no outside players who are particularly suitable for defending Suter. Carmelo Anthony, as the team's leading scorer, naturally cannot match up with Suter on the defensive end, otherwise his physical exertion will be too serious. It may affect his offensive state.

Besides Carmelo Anthony, the Nuggets' best perimeter defender is Buckner, but after several rounds of competition, Buckner has proved that he can't defend Suter at all, even if he is close to him, he can't limit him.

George Karl also thought about letting Kenyon Martin, who is also a beast player, play against Souter, but Souter is currently playing in the second position on the court. Once Kenyon Martin is allowed to defend Souter, then the game There will inevitably be dislocations, unless George Karl sends a three-inner lineup, otherwise he can only use outside players to entangle Suter.

In this game, the Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony was under a lot of pressure, and no one wanted to be the background board for the opponent to cut super data.

As a genius in the same draft, Anthony is also an ambitious person. He aspires to become an All-Star player, and he aspires to stand in the finals and hold the trophy with his own hands like Suter.

But as the two faced each other again in the new season, Anthony found that the gap between himself and Souter had not narrowed at all, and there was a vague trend of widening, which made Anthony feel uneasy and also frustrated.

After the timeout ended, the Nuggets did not choose to make substitutions. George Karl let Marcus Camby move on the baseline, mainly defending Drogbiak's shots, and making up defenses at the basket at any time, let Kenyon Martin do it Defensive pick and roll thing.

On the offensive end, the Nuggets have added air-cut routines for wing players. It seems that they want to compete with the Eagles on offense and give up the idea of ​​​​defending to win.

The weakness of the Nuggets' arrangement is very obvious. The Nuggets still have two big insiders with a height of about 2 meters. No matter how explosive Kenyon Martin is, he can't defend against pick-and-rolls like a guard.

But if you don’t play the Nuggets like this, you can’t guarantee the balance of offense and defense. Kenyon Martin is one of the few big players in the team who can both attack and defend. If he doesn’t play, the Eagles will only play more aggressively on the offensive end .

The Eagles also did not make substitutions. Woodson's tactic was to let Tyronn Lue actively move when Suter got the ball, and use Suter's usual style of play to find cover and create opportunities for open shots.

In addition to increasing the offensive threat on the court, Tyronn Lue can also play as much as possible on the offensive end. Suter will definitely be double-teamed by the Nuggets on the court. As long as Tyronn Lue actively moves A good shooting opportunity came out. For Tyronn Lue, who made nearly 40% of his three-pointers, he has gone further and further on the 3D road.

The game continued, and the two inside players of the Nuggets began to pull to the outside to cover. The head star Carmelo Anthony suddenly received a pass from Andre Miller from the left side and forced a pass under the defense of Stephen Jackson. A layup scored, 16:14.

Anthony averaged 21 points per game in his rookie season. His scoring ability is absolutely unquestionable, and the offensive end can be finished in almost any way.

As long as it is an offensive method that people can think of, there is no Anthony who can't do it. Whether it is holding the ball, off the ball, or cutting, Anthony can guarantee a good offensive efficiency.

Of course, this refers to Anthony in the early stage of his career. As his personal low position became higher and higher, Anthony also began to flutter in the middle of his career. From performing tactical moves to frequent individual singles, although Carmelo Anthony at that time It is also very strong, but he has no way to lead the team to go further.

Because his style of play seriously dragged down the team, from the famous "offensive kaleidoscope" to "single cancer king".

The Eagles attacked, Suter received the ball outside the left three-point line, and attracted Buckner and Kenyon Martin to defend at the same time. gram.

After receiving the ball, Drogbiak did not hit the rim to challenge Marcus Camby, the shot-blocking leader, but made a successful mid-range shot from the baseline on the right side. When Camby ran over from the penalty area to defend A step slower, can only watch Drogbiak score, 18:14.

Drobiak's offensive choice is very correct. The center player does not have to hit the basket hard on the court. He can make mid-range shots and three-pointers, and he is more accurate than Derek Anderson when he feels hot.

Charles Barkley shouted excitedly: "The Vulture sent out another assist. This is already his fifth assist today. If he continues to play in this state, he is likely to score double figures in assists in a single quarter."

Partner Kenny Smith added: "The vulture had sent 14 assists in a single game in the opening game. He proved that he is a qualified team brain. As long as he wants, I think the vulture does have a chance to achieve this goal. feat."

Charles Barkley said with a smile: "Before Tyronn Lue joined the Hawks in the offseason, he never thought that he would be so leisurely on the court. I think the league should assign Tyronn Lue a position alone, not so much as a point guard. It's a defender with the ball."

Nuggets offense, Andre Miller passes to right cut Anthony, who screens off Stephen Jackson and forces a drive, only to be caught at the rim by Drobiak and Crawford German two double-team.

Anthony certainly can't make a strong shot in this situation. On the other side, Suter is watching. If he dares to shoot, he is just looking for a cap.

After looking around, Anthony wanted to give the ball to Kenyon Martin, but the two were too close to pass it out. Stephen Jackson, who was chasing behind him, took out the basketball and completed the steal.

There was a very good opportunity in this downfield. Jackson dribbled a step and directly threw the ball forward with a "quarterback long pass". Suter completely got rid of Buckner who was close to the defense by relying on his speed.

Suter received the pass in a fast break alone, entered the penalty area from the middle, took off with one foot after calculating the distance, turned 180 degrees in the air and dunked the basketball with one hand and scored! 20:14.

After landing, Su Te stretched out his hand to take off the braces and let out a roar. He looked very domineering, as if a beast had returned.

Charles Barkley shouted: "It's another top-five dunk. The Eagles already had several wonderful dunks in the first quarter. Why does it feel like the Eagles are playing for fun today?"

Kenny Smith said: "I think if we continue to play at this pace, the Eagles are likely to take five best goals today. They did it last season, and they did it twice. It's just that Nash passed the ball at that time. The Vulture dunks, but now the Vulture not only dunks himself, but also assists his teammates to complete a wonderful alley-oop."

The Nuggets played very simple offensively. Andre Miller passed Buckner first, who lobbed the ball back to Marcus Camby inside.Although Camby has never been an offensive center, he has long arms and big hands, and he is very stable when receiving the ball. He turned around and entered the basket to score with a hook, 20:16.

The Eagles attacked, and Buckner felt a headache as soon as Suter ran. He couldn't stop Suter from receiving the ball, and the opponent's continuous assists made him feel helpless.

It’s not that Buckner has never faced top shooting guards in the league. He has played against Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Carter and Iverson. Especially so strong.

Buckner felt that Suter was not a human being, he was probably a beast in human skin.

It is much more difficult to prevent the opponent from passing the ball on the court than to prevent the opponent from scoring. Suter received the ball outside the 45-degree three-point line on the left, attracting Buckner and Kenyon Martin. Dribble back to open up space and make moves one meter beyond the three-point line.

At this time, Kenyon Martin, who was in charge of the frontal bunker, was in a dilemma. As soon as he ran out of the perimeter, he felt that something was wrong, and hurried back. It seemed that Martin recognized the wrong person and wanted to play a pick-and-roll with Suter, blocking Buckner As if at once.

Facing the continuous crotch dribble attempts by the defense, Suter stepped on the three-point line and dared not step forward, so he could only concentrate his attention as much as possible.

Suddenly, Suter dribbled the ball under his crotch and took a step back with his right foot to open the distance. Buckner hurried forward to interfere with the jump. As a result, Suter, who made a shooting action, did not make a shot. Instead, he stepped back and passed the ball to the court. left side.

Tyronn Lue relied on Crawford's screen to get around the open opportunity. After receiving the ball, he made a three-pointer and hit the center of the basket steadily, 23:16.

Andre Miller's lateral movement speed is very slow, and turning around the pick-and-roll has always been his weakness. Unlike other point guards, what the old Miller hates most is going around the screen on the defensive end. Instead, he is not afraid of the dislocation that usually guards don't like. defense.

His body is relatively strong, and the dislocation defense can withstand the opponent's small forward, but it is definitely a very painful thing for him to bypass the screen in time.

Tyronn Lue was only slightly disturbed in the face of open opportunities, and he shot very comfortably, almost the same as in training.

Charles Barkley said: "Lu also shot from the outside. This is already the sixth assist of the Condors in this game. He can always pass the ball to the right position now, and he plays very flexibly. I don't know if it is mine. Illusion, I always feel that the vultures pass the ball better than Nash this season.

Kenny Smith said with a smile: "Tyron Lue ran out of the opportunity, and naturally the vulture would not let his teammates run in vain. If his teammates all stood in their positions, I think he would definitely choose individual singles."

In fact, this is true. Suter does not have to shoot himself. Unless his teammates can't make a shot, he is willing to create scoring opportunities for his teammates.

In his rookie season, he played very selflessly and would not abandon rationality for the sake of statistics. This also led to his shooting percentage being very high, even two percentage points higher than the "big shark" O'Neal who mainly attacked the basket.

If you want to become the best player in NBA history, you must achieve a combination of rushing, scoring and shooting. A star who can only score but not pass will easily fall into the sand in the playoffs. This has been proved by history. Many times, unless the teammates around him are strong enough to help him, he cannot vote for a team by himself alone.

Once a player can achieve the three combinations of breakthrough, shooting and passing on the field, it will be difficult for the opponent to guess what method he will use to end the offense. If he can't guess, he will not be able to make a targeted defense.

The most important thing is that if his playing style on the court is more comprehensive than LeBron James, the league will not be able to praise James. After all, the two have similar styles, and Suter is obviously stronger. What face does the league have to praise James? Woolen cloth?

Although the two entered the league in the same year, if Souter had established his historical status early, people would probably describe James as a "condor class".

This is not an exaggeration at all, because the Vulture proved that he is the top star in the league as early as his rookie season. On the other hand, LeBron James is still struggling for a place in the playoffs. I don’t know if this dream can be fulfilled this season. .

If LeBron James doesn't want to play in Suter's shadow, he has to change his playing style, otherwise it is impossible to be more comprehensive than the Vulture who scored a triple-double in the opening game, nor can he be in the word all-around. on over Suter.

Suter is now very much looking forward to what kind of player LeBron James will become in the future, whether he will focus on scoring or continue his comprehensive style of play, but no matter what, James at this stage can no longer be compared with Suter.

The two have the same starting point, but their current achievements are far apart. The outside world is saying that LeBron James still has a huge potential that has not been tapped, but Suter has tapped his own potential early.

If James wants to compete with Suter to the end, he must win the regular season MVP and lead the team to win the championship in the next two years, otherwise Suter will be more than two blocks behind him in terms of historical achievements.

The Nuggets' offense is not a vegetarian either, and they immediately retaliated from the outside.

Andre Miller played a pick-and-roll with Kenyon Martin on the outside, which attracted Crawford to switch and Tyronn Lue to chase and pass the ball to the middle. Anthony caught the ball and saw Stephen Jackson was relatively late. Directly made a three-pointer on the spot, 23:19.

Anthony's shooting touch is very soft. Although his three-pointers this season are not good, he can still shoot with good offensive efficiency in the face of opportunities.

It's a pity that he met the bastard George Karl early in his career, which seriously delayed his training, otherwise Anthony might become better.

Kobe Bryant is a good example, if he was not playing under Phil Jackson, but was selected by George Karl asshole, then Kobe can only be a good shooting guard at best, but he must not Obtained five championship trophies.

The Eagles attacked, and Suter slipped from the right side to the left. Tyronn Lue held the ball in the middle and played a pick-and-roll with Crawford. Tyronn Lue saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Sue who ran to the left corner. special.

This time Buckner came out after chasing him, and his center of gravity was lowered. He had already been passed by Suter several times in a row, and he was afraid that he would be passed by Suter again this time. Lowering the center of gravity of his body could ensure a response in the shortest possible time.

However, this time Suter chose to catch the ball and shoot a jumper. Buckner's reaction was obviously half a beat slower, and he could only interfere with it symbolically.

Slight interference was meaningless to Suter. Suter forced a three-pointer against the defender, 26:19.

After scoring the goal, Suter roared again. He has become more and more excited about this game. He feels that he may give the home fans an ultimate visual feast today.

Nuggets coach George Karl's eyelids twitched, and he almost called a timeout again. Today, the Nuggets players have performed at a super level on the offensive end. They made a lot of three-pointers from the outside, but the score is still behind.

The shooting accuracy of the Eagles players is outrageous, especially Suter, this guy is unstoppable from inside and outside!
Just over halfway through the first quarter, the Eagles scored 26 points. All five starters except Stephen Jackson scored. They played very well as a team.
