I really can't handle the ball

Chapter 102 Winning the Support of the Away Fans

At the start of the game, Dayao jumped up vigorously, overwhelmed Nesterovic, touched the basketball first, and dialed it to Francis.

The Rockets got the chance for the first attack, and Francis dribbled to the top of the arc to organize the attack.

Dayao is very active in the low position on the right and asks for the ball.

Boss Fu saw that Dayao had succeeded in claiming the position, and immediately lobbed the ball over.

Seeing this, Li Xuan didn't go to assist in the defense, so he didn't have to work so hard at the beginning of the game.

After Dayao received the ball, he saw that the Mavericks players did not come to assist in double-teaming, so he relaxed and began to focus on hitting Nesterovic with his back. After a few back pushes, he found that he could not move much distance, and no longer wasted time. Directly choose to rely on Nesterovic hook shot.

"Shh!"

The basketball is hollow into the net and hits steadily!
2: 0!

Dayao scored the first goal of the game for the Rockets, causing the fans at home to cheer and shout deafeningly, cheering for the Rockets!

The ball is switched and the Mavericks attack.

This time, the Mavericks' style of play was extremely simple, and Nash directly handed the ball to Nowitzki for singles.

After receiving the ball, the "driver" faced Morris Taylor, who was only 206 centimeters tall, and made a steady fallback jumper to tie the score.

Looking back, the Rockets still rely on Dayao to play post-ups in the low post.

This time, the Mavericks chose to help defend and double-team, and Nowitzki retreated to the basket to form a double-team attack with Nesterovic.

Dayao doesn't think he can match O'Neal's level of threat in the low post at this stage. He can play one against two, and then quickly pass the ball to Francis who stepped forward to respond.

After the boss received the ball, under the interference of Nash, he passed the ball to Taylor who was in the open position at this time.

"The Mavericks' defense had a loophole, and Morris got an open shot. Let's see if he can seize this excellent scoring opportunity." The Rockets commentator on the spot commentary quickly explained.

As soon as the commentator's voice fell, a Mavericks player wearing a No. 10 jersey suddenly appeared in front of Taylor, seriously interfering with shooting.

"Go! When did Yao's compatriots run in front of Morris? The defense speed is too fast!"

"The No. 10 player is called Little Garnett. It is not unusual to have such an excellent defense. How long has it been since you watched the game? The news is so incomprehensible."

"Why didn't that stupid pig Dawson choose Lee? What an idiot!"

The fans in the auditorium were talking about the offense and defense.

The game continued, Nowitzki grabbed the defensive rebound, found Nash and passed the ball in the first place.

After receiving the ball, Nash wanted to quickly dribble forward and launch a defensive counterattack, but was blocked by the old-fashioned Francis, who did not give him a chance to speed up.

Failed to make a fast break, Nash dribbled forward without rushing, and came outside the three-point line to organize the offense.

Li Xuan stepped forward to cooperate with the pick-and-roll, and then cut to the basket.

Nash used the cover to break through to the front of the right side of the penalty area, and quickly hit the ball to the center with quick eyes and hands.

Li Xuan, who was plugged in later, took a big step directly after receiving the ball, soaring into the air, making a dunking posture.

Dayao, who was entangled with Nesterovic at the basket, saw that Li Xuan had already taken off, and it was too late to go to make up the defense, and he didn't want to be the background board, and at the same time thought to himself: "Ah Xuan's physical fitness is too good! I am also a yellow race, why is my body so weak."

No one stopped, Li Xuan easily dunked and scored 2 points.

2: 4!

The Rockets quickly sent the ball to the baseline, and Francis dribbled to the three-point line. This time he did not choose to drop the ball inside, but chose to attack by himself.

Facing Nash's defense, Frederick relied on his physical advantage to easily squeeze Nash away and break through to the basket.

Francis saw the Mavericks players retreating to the basket, compressing their breakthrough space, and immediately distributed the ball.

Taylor did not take a shot after receiving the pass, because he had already seen a figure coming quickly out of the corner of his eye, without sticking to the ball, he passed the ball out quickly.

After passing the ball many times, Mobley had a chance. After catching the ball, he pulled it up directly and made a fallback jumper to shoot.

Finley who rushed over immediately rushed to interfere with it, but it didn't make up for it, and failed to interfere with the shooting.

With a swish, the hollow enters the net!

4: 4!

It didn't take long for the Mavericks to fight back.

With the help of Li Xuan's off-ball screen, Finley got rid of the defender, received a wonderful pass from Nash, and made an emergency stop jumper.

4: 6!

In the next round, the Rockets wanted Yao to play inside, but the Mavericks had already formulated a defensive strategy against Yao, which failed to make the Rockets' wishful thinking come true.

So, Dayao passed the ball to the outside, Jackson received the pass, and wanted to shoot, but saw that the Mavericks' No. 10 player had rushed back, waving his long arms to interfere.

Seeing Li Xuan who was taller than him in front of him, Jackson thought that this guy was tall and he must not be flexible, so he planned to use his breakthrough skills to pass him.

After continuously dribbling the ball to find a breakthrough rhythm, he suddenly lowered his center of gravity and began to accelerate to the right to break through. Seeing that Li Xuan moved laterally to block, he pulled the ball back and used his explosive power to turn to the left.

A set of gaudy breakthrough moves seemed quite smooth, but the effect was not very good. Li Xuan in front of him still maintained his defensive position steadily, blocking his breakthrough route.

"Hahaha, such a flashy breakthrough is not practical at all. This kind of breakthrough is simply whimsical to think of passing Xiao Li's defense, unless Iverson comes in person."

"It's not that the opponent is a rookie, but Li Xuan's defense is too good!"

After Director Zhang and Director Xu expressed their opinions, they looked at each other very tacitly, and then laughed heartily.

Seeing that he had done useless work, Jackson felt a little reconciled, and immediately rushed forward, trying to use his physical advantage to squeeze Li Xuan away.

But he didn't expect that after a physical confrontation with Li Xuan, he would be bounced away, and he was a little surprised by Li Xuan's ability to fight.

Being able to get a starting position in the NBA where there are so many strong players, Jackson still has two brushes. After a brief absence, he immediately took countermeasures.

With the help of the rebounding force, he took steps back in the process of retreating, distanced himself from Li Xuan, jumped up and shot.

Jackson handled this series of operations perfectly, but Li Xuan's talent was so outstanding that he couldn't escape Wuzhishan.

Clap!
Li Xuan, who rushed to interfere with the shot, successfully blocked the basketball, causing Fei Zai to change direction and fly towards the middle circle.

After landing, Li Xuan broke out with the fastest speed and rushed to the frontcourt to compete for the basketball.

Jackson, who wanted to step forward to stop him, directly collided with Li Xuan's body, staggered back a few steps to maintain his balance, and did not fall to the ground.

At this time, Li Xuan had already rushed to pick up the basketball from outside the three-point line. Seeing that the Rockets' retreating players failed to come, he dribbled the ball, rushed inside the three-point line, took three big steps, and came to the penalty area In the back, he took off on one foot and dunked the ball hard into the basket.

4: 8!

Li Xuan's outstanding performance also won the applause and cheers of the away fans. Although it was sparse, it also proved that his performance is worthy of praise. At the same time, it is foreseeable that it is only a matter of time before he wants to conquer the fans of the Rockets.
