I really can't handle the ball

Chapter 83 In Bowen's Small Notebook
"Target 1: Successfully block Manu Ginobili 3 times; complete the task to get a reward: block attribute improvement card +1."

"Target 2: Successfully rob Parker 3 times; complete the mission to get a reward: defensive skills - pick something out."

"Goal 3: Grab 3 rebounds on Duncan's head; complete the task to get a reward: S-level attribute breakthrough card +1."

"Target 4: Facing Bowen's defense, hit 3 shots in a row; complete the task and get a reward: Mid-range shot attribute improvement card +1."

A series of reminder voices sounded, and Li Xuan was very happy. The reward this time is very generous. If he gets all of them, his strength can be greatly improved.

After regaining his senses, Li Xuan speeded up and followed his teammates to the field.

The game continued and the Mavericks had the ball.

Nash dribbled forward without rushing, and came to the top of the arc to organize the offense.

Li Xuan quickly stepped up to cooperate with the pick-and-roll, and Nash quickly broke through the three-point line with the help of the screen.

Parker wanted to squeeze through the cover to pursue the defense, but was secretly squeezed by Li Xuan, which delayed his speed of pursuit.

Parker glanced at Li Xuan in surprise. He didn't expect that the handsome guy with handsome features would also use dirty tricks, which completely overturned his perception of the No. 10 rookie of the Mavericks.

Since Parker failed to catch up with Nash in the first place, Bowen had to switch to Nash.

Nash dribbled the ball to the free throw line. Seeing that Bowen had changed his defense, he knew how good he was, so he had no extra thoughts and immediately passed the ball back.

Li Xuan, who finished the pick-and-roll and made an air cut, received the pass, immediately pulled up, and shot a three-pointer.

Parker, who was chasing defense, quickly jumped up to interfere with the shot.

When he took off and stretched his arms, he realized how weak he was, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart: "This shit is an enhanced version of T-Mac!"

Bang bang!Fight with anger!
"Unfortunately, the opportunity has come. It seems that Xiao Li's warm-up activities have not continued. His hands were still a little cold when he first played, and they may get better later." Director Zhang explained with a regretful tone.

Duncan protected the rebound, passed to Parker to dribble forward, and then ran upfield.

After Parker received the pass, he did not speed up and advance forward, but kept dribbling at a constant speed to the top of the arc to organize the attack.

This is related to the offensive and defensive tactics of the Spurs. It is difficult to see several quick transitions in a game. They are generally good at peaceful and slow offensives.

In this round, the Spurs still let Duncan go to the low post to ask for the ball in singles.

When Duncan came to the left low post to ask for the ball, he found that Mavericks center Nesterovic was facing him. It was very difficult to squeeze the 120 kg big center, so he could only rely on flexible inside footsteps.

At the same time, Li Xuan, who was entangled with Turkoglu on the outside, quickly rushed to help defend and double-team.

At this time, Duncan, who was using the inside footsteps to sway people, saw the Mavericks rookie running over, and immediately passed the ball out.

Turkoglu, who came to the high position on the left, quickly took off and shot after receiving the ball, but Li Xuan had already pounced on him at some point, and interfered with his long arm.

Turkoglu, who jumped in the air, couldn't pass the ball, so he could only bite the bullet and throw the ball.

After being seriously disturbed, the basketball knocked out of the frame. Nesterovic used his body to block Duncan behind him and protected the rebound.

In the transition between offense and defense, Nash quickly started to attack the frontcourt after receiving the pass.

Li Xuan and Finley followed closely behind to form a triangle fast break.

The Spurs only retreated back to Parker and Bowen.

The Mavericks got the opportunity to play more and less in the frontcourt.

Nash and Finley rushed inside the three-point line, while Li Xuan stayed outside the three-point line to attract the Spurs' defense.

Sure enough, Bowen always kept in mind Popovich's assigned tasks and did not give Li Xuan a chance to shoot, so he stayed outside the three-point line.

There is no suspense in the two-on-one in the penalty area. Nash attracted Parker's defense and assisted Finley with an easy layup.

6: 7!

In the next offensive round of the Spurs, Duncan, who was originally in the high pick-and-roll, suddenly cut in and caught Nesterovic off guard.

Nesterovic is a typical European center with mediocre athletic ability and insufficient explosive power, so he can't keep up with Duncan's footsteps.

Parker skillfully hit the ball to Duncan, and the Spurs' tactical coordination was quite successful this time.

Duncan received the pass comfortably, and when he dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he saw Li Xuan who retreated to the basket at some point to make up for the defense, forming a pincer attack with Nesterovic.

Li Xuan was watching Duncan's position and movements at all times, and when he saw his actions, he did not hesitate to double-team the defense.

Duncan saw that the offense was too difficult and the efficiency was not high, so he passed the ball out.

Turkoglu did not shoot directly this time, but quickly transferred the ball out.

Parker, who cut in from the right to the basket, received the pass, rushed directly to the basket, made a pull action to avoid Nowitzki's block, and threw the ball out.

At this moment, a long arm suddenly appeared in front of Parker, slapping the basketball he had just shot and flying away.

Parker turned his head and looked at Li Xuan behind him in surprise. Didn't this guy go to guard Xidu?How could it appear behind him?

Do you have a lot of question marks, kid?

In fact, when Li Xuan saw Turkoglu pass the ball, he immediately turned around and ran towards the basket, just in time to meet Parker who made a fancy layup, so naturally he was not polite and rewarded him with a block.

The Spurs sent the ball to the baseline, and after Duncan received the ball, he hit the rebound and shot directly, without giving Li Xuan a chance to help defend.

The basketball rebounded into the basket and scored two points.

6: 9!

In the next round, Nowitzki asked for the ball in the low position on the right, preparing for a singles.

Willis alone can't defend Nowitzki at all, and must double-team.

At this time, Nowitzki played Duncan's role in the Spurs, attracting double-teams, splitting the ball and assisting his teammates to score.

The Spurs are now in a difficult situation. I didn't expect the Mavericks to be so shameful that they misappropriated their offensive tactics.

Duncan, who was pulled to the middle distance on the right, was forced to retreat to the basket to help defend.

Seeing this, Nowitzki immediately distributed the ball. After passing the ball many times, Li Xuan, who ran to the left corner, had a chance.

As soon as Li Xuan received the pass, he was about to take off and shoot. Bowen, who was chasing quickly, immediately stepped forward to defend him, not giving him room to shoot.

"Rookie, give up! You don't have any room to shoot, and I will lock you up firmly. Facing the best defensive player on the outside, you will not get even one point." Bowen sprayed trash talk to affect Li Xuan's Shooting rhythm.

Li Xuan was not affected by Bowen's trash talk, but instead said tit-for-tat: "Then I want to see how powerful the best defensive player is, and whether his reputation is in vain."

Li Xuan suddenly pushed Bowen away with his shoulder, squeezed out a little space, pulled up directly, and shot.

Unwilling to be knocked away, Bowen gently pushed Li Xuan, who was shooting, with a small covert movement, only to see him throw the basketball backwards while taking advantage of the situation.

"This guy's shooting stability is so strong?!"

Bowen was very surprised. After being pushed by him like this, he was able to complete the shooting action!

Swish!Hollow into the net!

8: 9!

When landing, Li Xuan always paid attention to Bo Wen's feet, and never gave him a chance to step on them.

"This is nothing more than the best defensive player on the perimeter." Li Xuan quickly backed away after mocking Bowen.

Bao Wen yelled fiercely in the direction of Li Xuanyuan: "Boy, let's wait and see, I will ravage you well next time!"
