Chapter 833 Box-and-one Tactics Reappear
The Eagles are determined to win the playoffs, especially the paranoid Paul. After snatching the Rookie of the Year trophy from Deron last season, he wants to let the Eagles crush the Jazz in all aspects this season. People's defense is very average.

Fortunately, besides Li Lei, the Bulls don't have many strong defensive players, but Mike Woodson knows very well that Li Lei is the kind of existence that one person can use as five.

The Hawks' starting lineup in this game is no different from the previous ones. Point guard Paul, shooting guard Josh Childress, small forward Josh Smith, power forward Yi Jianlian, and center Sheldon Williams. Although the landlord at position [-] is of average height, this guy is not inferior to any insider in the league in terms of strength.A little Hayes, but offensively he's a little better than Hayes.

Although Yi Jianlian had greeted Li Lei and Yao Ming before this game, he was extremely vicious on the court. For the first ball in the game, he set a pick-and-roll for Paul in the high position. Flying to, Yi Jianlian, who had already reached the three-second zone, took the ball with a one-on-one jump, and smashed it directly into the basket with a bang.

Zen Master did not make substitutions on the sidelines. Yi Jianlian is an outlier in the current league. He is more special than Nowitzki. In addition to shooting, this guy is very keen on performing alley-oops with Paul, while Alderman is much more traditional.

During the Bulls' offensive round, the Eagles were man-to-man defense, but Paul and Josh Childress would come over to interfere with Li Lei at any time. Mike Woodson knew very well that ordinary man-to-man defense would not be able to stop this big devil. If James represented the pinnacle of strength and technology, then Li Lei was a combination of technology and IQ.

Li Lei didn't pass the ball at the first time, but jumped up. Paul didn't jump, but approached Li Lei. Josh Childress jumped up. His goal was the ball in Li Lei's hand. With the ability to stay in the air, Josh Childress thought that he was not inferior to Li Lei.

Seeing Li Lei scored a goal, Mike Woodson became ruthless. He then changed his tactics and used Box-and-one, which is the legendary one-star four-way defense.Although Paul's height and wingspan are not as good as Li Lei's, what doesn't embarrass Woodson is that the Eagles have the best perimeter defense. Josh Childress can only be ranked second, which is really embarrassing.

Back then, the Raptors used this trick against Curry who lacked helpers and achieved miraculous results, but against Li Lei, that’s another story. Li Lei’s overall view is not possessed by Curry.

When Li Lei dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Paul pushed forward, and Josh Smith, Childress and the landlord also came over. Li Lei took a step back, and then threw the ball high. The arc of the ball was really unusually high.

"Wow, I really didn't expect to see such a simple box-and-one tactic on the NBA stage, but does it really work for Bruce?" Everyone thought it was a shot, and it would definitely be an Airball.

But when the ball came near the basket, Adelaide jumped up suddenly, and Yi Jianlian also took off, but it was still a step late. With a bang, Adelaide returned Yi Jianlian with an alley-oop.

The entire United Center fell silent, because it was so unbelievable that Li Lei was able to pass the ball without seeing his teammates under the attack of four people.

Mike Woodson didn't look anxious on the sidelines. He felt that the ball just now was just an accident. If Li Lei was given another chance like this, it would definitely be a mistake.

The Eagles' offense and the Bulls' defense are still man-to-man. The Zen master will not like to use some very special tactics like Mike Woodson. Before Paul came out for halftime, Li Lei forced him up.Li Lei patted the ball to the backcourt and made an easy layup.

Mike Woodson's eyes narrowed. If Paul was being targeted by Li Lei all the time, then the box-and-one tactics would not be able to play out, because Li Lei only needed to keep stealing. No one dared to doubt Li Lei's stealing level, because many games have proved that his accomplishments in steals are no worse than the historical stealing king Erwin Robertson.

Paul was very helpless, he dribbled the ball from the backcourt again, and Li Lei forced him up again, but fortunately this time Josh Childress came to pick him up from the backcourt, but Li Lei didn't bother with that guy, and kept fighting with Paul.

Although Paul made a lot of small moves, every time he made a move, Li Lei would dodge skillfully, and when he dodged, he would hit Paul violently.Although Jordan is not known for his strength, his body is balanced, so his strength is naturally not too bad.Paul didn't expect Li Lei to be so strong, he staggered and almost fell to the ground. Josh Childress's pass was very ordinary, and this was Li Lei's purpose. To prevent Paul from receiving the ball easily, anyone in the Eagles could organize it.

The Eagles' offense became fragmented. On the defensive end, they still used Box-and-one to limit Li Lei, but Li Lei used that unbelievable pass every time to resolve it. After three quarters, this tactic did not cause Li Lei to make a single mistake.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Eagles were really exhausted. Li Lei started to perform on the perimeter. He scored 20 points in a single quarter and led the Bulls to defeat the Eagles at home. Although Mike Woodson’s box-and-one tactics caused trouble for Li Lei, he still did not take away the victory. Li Lei scored 32 points, 19 assists, 8 steals, and 3 blocks in the game.
