Start without the ball

Chapter 306

On the Raptors bench, Nurse was frowning. Li Haoyu’s dominance in the transition period made him feel pressured. Now he can only hope that Van Vleet can stand up and bite the score. After all, the Raptors used to be the best No. 23 A strong contender for the sixth man.

Not only Nass thinks so, but thousands of Raptors fans are also expecting Van Vleet to come forward.

On the other side of the field, Li Haoyu looked at the score, 30 to 28, he broke through and dunked to get a 2-point lead. On the basketball court, if you want to consolidate your advantage, you have to play a tough enough defense to prevent the opponent from scoring. unchanging rules.

On the center line, Li Haoyu made a heavy heart and locked his eyes on Van Vleet who was dribbling forward.

When the Raptors point guard just crossed the center line, Li Haoyu stepped forward to apply pressure, using his wingspan advantage to constantly interfere with Van Vleet's right hand in possession of the ball, while turning his body slightly to give way to the left.

This is the battlefield of the finals. No one wants to make mistakes at such a critical moment. Van Vleet feels a lot of pressure on the right hand of the dribble. After all, Li Haoyu's figure is a huge challenge for him. Just to be on the safe side , the Raptors guard dribbled the ball from behind to his left with his right hand, and moved toward the relatively safe left.

Li Haoyu, who was standing obliquely, raised the corner of his mouth slightly. While following Van Vleet's sliding steps, he kept exerting resistance. In terms of strength, he had an absolute advantage.

The basketball in Van Vleet's hands was not dangerous, but Li Haoyu's confrontation made him quite uncomfortable. In order to avoid Li Haoyu, his dribbling direction slowly deviated from the straight line and leaned towards the flank.

The Raptors defender kept trying to pass the basketball while dribbling, but Powell on the left was 45 degrees close to Ferguson. Although Lowry on the right had a strength advantage over Schroeder, the distance was too far. Based on Schroeder, he has the opportunity to steal.

He decided to hand over the ball to Powell in the safest way. Van Vleet is now only two steps away from Powell at 45 degrees.

At this moment, Li Haoyu shouted loudly:

"Tie Sen come up to labor and capital!".

Ferguson, who had been standing next to Powell, heard the news, and immediately went around to Powell, blocking the century-old connection between Van Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

Afterwards, Ferguson opened his arms, the slender arms expanded the defensive area, cutting off Van Jordan's hope of passing the ball.

Li Haoyu also moved towards Ferguson, closing the encirclement net, leaving no gap for Van Vleet to dribble through.

Faced with the sudden double-team, Van Vleet dribbled back, trying to protect the ball, but in 1 second, he found that there was a baseline beside him!

In desperation, Van Vleet stopped the ball and tried to pass the basketball, but his vision was blocked by Li Haoyu and Ferguson.

In desperation, Van Vleet thought of Lowry on the other side, stretched the ball out of the baseline with his left hand, hooked the ball hard, crossed Li Haoyu's Ferguson's arm, and passed it 45 degrees to the right with a high lob. I can hope that Lowry can beat Schroeder in the competition.

The orange basketball flew to the right of the top of the arc. In order to avoid the long arms of Li Haoyu and Ferguson, the accuracy of this kind of passing cannot be guaranteed.

Lowry and Schroeder started at the same time and rushed towards the landing point. Schroeder did not want to let down the opportunities that Li Haoyu and Ferguson worked so hard to create for him.

The Thunder guard roared, and Schroeder, who was as light as a swallow, was half a body ahead of Lowry in an instant, and he was ahead!

On the left side of the field, Li Haoyu rushed forward without hesitation after Lowry passed the basketball. He believed in Schroeder, and believed in this comrade who had fought side by side with him for more than a hundred games.

When Li Haoyu crossed the center line, Schroeder lived up to expectations, grabbed the basketball and passed it forward.

The orange basketball crossed an arc and fell into Li Haoyu's hands precisely.

Facing the empty frontcourt, Li Haoyu kicked the ground vigorously into the air, held the basketball high with his right hand, and smashed it into the basket with the momentum of smashing Huashan.

boom!
Fast-break dunks, 32 to 28, the Thunder staged an extremely perfect team defense!

Westbrook got up and kept waving the towel, Li Haoyu's performance made him very excited.

"Suffocating defense! This is a perfect teamwork." Pierce can't help but admire.

Miller: "Lee set a trap for VanVleet from the halfway line, and he forced the Raptors guard into Ferguson.

And Ferguson wanted to be excellent. He didn't give Van Vleet the first chance to pass the ball. The Raptors guard had to dribble close and tried to hand it over.

At this moment, Youlin Mamba directed Ferguson to attack, which was a wise choice!

Van Vleet, who was close to the sideline, had no depth behind him to retreat, and he fell into siege.

At this time, the height advantage of Lee and Ferguson appeared. For Van Vleet, who is only 1 meters tall, it was a big net that blocked the sky. He could only pass the ball at risk.

Schroeder made full use of his speed advantage, and he threw away Lowry to complete the final steal.

Youlin Mamba, who smelled the gift, had already been dispatched. This was an exquisite cooperation, starting from Li and ending with Li. "

Barkley: "Dame it, Lee's dominance in the connecting segment is unshakable!"

After landing, Li Haoyu pointed to Schroeder, who completed the steal and sent an exquisite assist, and then pointed to Ferguson, who perfectly pinched Van Vleet to make a mistake. Without the two of them, the Thunder would not have been able to complete this wonderful defense.

Encouraged, Ferguson felt his blood boil, and he was excited to be able to show his long-trained defensive skills in the finals.

Van Vleet ran back to the backcourt silently, and Ibaka returned to the backcourt together, and he was ready to meet Van Vleet.

Fan Qiaodan picked up the basketball and exited the baseline. He first observed the sidelines on both sides. This was repeatedly emphasized by Nass in the combat meeting. Every player who serves from the baseline must confirm that Li Haoyu is not in ambush nearby before he can send a shot. basketball.

After confirming that there was no danger, Van Jordan passed the ball to Kobe Bryant, who came to meet him, and then took the basketball back to the frontcourt.

With the lesson from last time, Van Vleet directed Ibaka to fall near the center line.

When Van Fleet dribbled through the midfield, Ibaka blocked Li Haoyu's right side, and the Raptors point guard took the opportunity to dribble to the top of the arc and passed the ball to Lowry, who was 45 degrees to the right.

In the last round, Lowry lost to Schroeder in the scramble, which made him, an All-Star guard, a little displeased. He accelerated decisively and rushed to the basket from the left.

Schroeder slides next to him. He will not lose to Lowry in terms of speed, but he is not as good as the Raptors guard in terms of strength. Under the confrontation, Schroder gradually began to lose his defensive position.

After getting rid of the defense, Lowry rushed to the penalty area without hesitation, attracted Noelle's defense, and passed the ball to Siakam.

The Raptors forward was about to get up and dunk, but one arm was pulled hard.

Dip~ The whistle sounded, and Noelle made a foul.

Siakam goes to the free throw line.
