Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 309 Speed ​​Duel
Ariza restrained a lot this time. Compared with the excitement before, he just waved his fist, then stretched out his hand and made a three-pointer gesture, and then retreated to the backcourt.

At 11:15, the Nuggets narrowed the point difference to only 4 points.

Popovich shook his head dissatisfied, waved his hand, and called a timeout.

The fans at the scene burst into cheers of excitement. Anthony's re-appearance really changed the entire mental outlook of the Nuggets, especially Nash, who seemed to be activated at once. This kind of thing is very important for the Nuggets Said it couldn't be better.

As Anthony walked to the bench, he kept encouraging his teammates with words.

At this moment, the fans at the scene suddenly burst into an uproar, Anthony raised his head unconsciously, and then saw a familiar figure appearing on the big screen, perhaps to make the audience more familiar with her, and wrote English Note: Desperate Housewives starring, Tony Parker's girlfriend, Eva Lagrange.

Anthony smiled when he saw this familiar figure. The woman who offered to deliver her to her door was still the same as in history. She was going to become Parker's man. I have to bear another name, Parker's wife's ex-boyfriend.

Anthony quickly withdrew his gaze and continued to focus on the field. Carl was planning the defensive tactics for the next round. Because the Spurs hadn't scored for a long time, most of them came back to use Duncan to break the scoring drought. So Carl His defensive tactics are mainly aimed at the Spurs' inside offense.

On the Spurs' bench, Popovich carefully arranged tactics on the tactical board. Contrary to Carl's expectations, Popovich's tactics are still outside offensive tactics, and it is an inside double pick-and-roll tactic. The starting point of the tactics, It was Tony Parker who hadn't played much before. From here, we can see Popovich's sophistication.

But just as Popovich was setting up, there was a sudden uproar at the scene. He didn't pay much attention to it, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed that the players looked up, and he couldn't help but look up, and then Seeing the subtitles on the scene, the old handsome frowned, then looked down, and saw Parker smiling slightly at this moment, and the scene camera quickly captured this scene, and cast Parker on the scene on the large LED screen.

This time, the fans at the scene cheered and booed again. Although they were opponents, booing was their favorite thing to do when they saw a handsome man.

The fans were happy, but Popovich's face became even uglier. He coughed first, and when he saw that the players hadn't been attracted by him, he then said: " If you guys don't want to play, I have plenty of benches."

Popovich didn't speak loudly, but his heart skipped a beat when he heard the Spurs players, especially Parker, the person involved, he was one, Ginobili was the other, both of them were discovered by Popovich It can be said that their success is basically due to Popovich. They know Popovich well, so Parker immediately realized that Popovich was really angry. He hurriedly turned his head and looked at the tactical board intently, not daring to move again.

Popovich saw that the players turned their attention back, and he continued: "Manu ambushes on the outside, doing feints and second options, and Tim has to be quick to create the first breakthrough for Tony. Opportunity, Tony has to be fast, before the Nuggets double-team formation..."

Popovich's tactics were the same as before. The Spurs players, especially Parker, were finally relieved after hearing this. Judging from Popovich's move, they should have forgiven them.

At this time, a subtle but crucial change occurred in the psychology of the Spurs. Originally, they were a little afraid of getting angry with Popovich, but now, Popovich's forgiveness made them feel guilty. This sense of self-blame is subtly turning into a kind of motivation. Although it doesn't show on their faces, the fighting spirit in their eyes is igniting little by little.

The episode during the timeout just passed, and the players on both sides returned to the field after the timeout, and the Spurs had the ball.

Parker controlled the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. According to Popovich's tactical deployment, the Spurs players began to run tactics.

After the Nuggets players came on the court, they planned to follow Carl's tactical arrangement and put the focus of defense on preventing Duncan from singles inside, but after they came up, they found that Duncan did not press as expected They went to singles on the inside, but brought it up to serve Parker as a pick-and-roll. Such a change caught them off guard, but after all, they had experienced so many games, and they were quick to respond. Anthony, hastily mentioned the high position.

To say that the speed of Brand and Anthony is not slow, especially Anthony, he was aware of the Spurs' offensive intentions almost immediately, but Parker moved faster than them, and he was even behind Duncan's pick-and-roll. Before fully coming up, he approached Duncan actively, followed by using Duncan's body, and rushed to the inside line with a sudden acceleration.

It was Nash who defended Parker. The main reason why Nash was criticized on the defensive end was that his thin body was always at a disadvantage in the confrontation. Against Parker, it can be said that it was the easiest matchup for him. , But at this moment, after Duncan's pick-and-roll came up, he was blocked firmly, and he could only watch Parker break into the inside.

Parker is now full of energy, and his speed and reaction are more than one level stronger than before. After Duncan's pick-and-roll, he quickly cuts in. At this moment, the Spurs' second pick-and-roll comes up. Nesterovic came out of the paint and used his tall frame to help Parker create an empty layup on the right wing.

Nesterovic's pick-and-roll is timely, but Chandler is not easy to eat. His heel is ready to squeeze Nesterovic to block Parker.

Chandler's reaction was fast enough, but it was still much slower than Parker's. He had just stepped out, and Parker had already thrown the shot ahead of time, and he didn't even have a chance to block the shot.

Parker's small drop shot is one of his famous stunts. Because of its fast speed and tricky angle, it often makes it difficult for opponents to defend against it. At this moment, there is almost no defense in front of his shot, and the impact on him is naturally almost zero.

"Shua!'

The ball crossed a high parabola, and then fell straight into the net bag!

Parker's speed is faster than Popovich expected. Basically, the Spurs' pick-and-roll has not yet fully formed, and he has already broken into the inside. It is precisely because of this that the defensive pressure on the Nuggets is stronger than before This kind of pressure is not the pressure of formation or tactics, but pure speed. If the speed of defense is always slower than that of the opponent, how can we talk about defense?
Carl didn't say much at this time, but just called Nash to his side and whispered to him.

The Nuggets' offense, Nash stretched out his hand and made a 3 gesture, indicating to play the No. 3 tactic.

Anthony saw Nash's gesture, turned his head and glanced at Carl involuntarily, and then immediately raised it to Nash as a pick-and-roll.

Almost the same tactics as the Spurs, Nash used the speed double pick-and-roll to successfully get to a place more than one meter away from the basket. The only difference is that Parker used a floating shot to end the round early, while Nash made an emergency stop jumper. Before the Spurs' defense came out, he directly pulled out his hand.

Like Parker's drop shot, Nash's pull-up jump shot is also one of his offensive skills, and in this position, he basically has little chance of missing, and the final result is almost the same as expected.

"Shh!"

Nash made a direct hit and responded to Parker's previous ball.

At this moment, the two defenders with outstanding speed began a duel of peak speed.

A player’s touch and sense of the ball need a lot of ball power to wake up, which is why many top scorers still dare to shoot after hitting several balls in a row, as long as the feeling comes at a certain point , then he will directly become the state of the Buddha blocking the killing of the Buddha and the god of blocking the killing of the gods, that is, the legendary hot feeling, or bursting the table.

Nash and Parker are two people. In the previous round, Nash was better. Parker didn't participate in many offenses, but after returning from the timeout, the two cooperated with teammates several times in a row, and played the role of finisher many times. , The state of the two people came at once, and it is precisely because of this that the two coaches took advantage of the situation to help them arrange tactics non-stop.

Thanks to this, by the end of the halftime, the statistics of the two point guards can be described as very gorgeous. Nash scored 12 points and 11 assists, while Parker had already scored 20 points and 6 assists. The two teams Under their leadership, there was also an offensive battle at halftime. At the end of the halftime, the Spurs scored 58 points, and the Nuggets also scored 57 points not to be outdone. The two sides were evenly matched.

Although I am a fan of the Nuggets, but seeing the inseparable play between the two sides, as a fan, I still like to see this kind of scene very much. The feeling of suffocation is the fun of watching the game as a fan.

During the half-time break, the coaches of both sides were analyzing the tactics of the first half. The two sides could be said to be rivals. Any negligence may lead to the final defeat of the game, and even determine the final direction of the series.
