Chapter 920 The ultimate ability to read the game
"Reggie, you are right, Dwight is still very lethal in the paint!" Mav Albert said with a smile.

"Even if Dwight's physical condition is not as good as the peak, he was once the league's number one center. Serge, who was born at the 4th position in the low post, will naturally not suffer." Reggie Miller said.

Howard walked to the free throw line and made a rare two free throws!

6:4, the Hornets were only 2 points behind.

On the side of the Raptors, Jeremy Lin used the cover to bully Howard and couldn't get out of the paint, so he stopped and pulled out a mid-range one-yes!
The Raptors lead 8:4!

Looking back, Howard continued to seek positions at the basket, but Batum didn't pass the ball to it, but chose to pass the ball to Marvin on the outside.

Marvin shot 3 points - no!
The long rebound was obtained by Ying Xiong, who held the ball and pushed to counterattack, chasing the body and making a 3-point shot-yes!
The Raptors led by 11 points at 4:7!Hornets timeout!
"Hey, why don't you continue to play Dwight?" Reggie Miller didn't understand the Hornets' style of play.

"I think it should be the team's game plan. Dwight's status and offense are not the main means." Mav Albert said.

"It's very possible that Dwight is indeed not the most popular center in the league, because he doesn't have 3 points, can't play fast breaks, and can't switch outside. But as an inside defender, he is still the top in the league! said Reggie Miller.

Pause back, the game continues.

Kemba Walker dribbled the ball and gave it to Batum who cut out to catch the ball.

Batum hit the ground and distributed the ball to Howard under the basket.

Howard hit Ibaka with the ball, resisted the opponent, burst up at the basket, and dunked successfully!

"Wow - Dwight's dunk, so cool!" Groom Albert exclaimed.

11:6, the Hornets began to chase points!
"Charlotte is enlightened, and finally know that they still have a big center under the basket!" Reggie Miller laughed.

"A lot of times, people are always used to think of Dwight as a blue-collar, a defensive player. In fact, in this era of withering big men, he has a size advantage for playing those space-type insiders!" Mav Albert said.

For the Raptors, Ibacara went to the high position, received a sudden point from his teammates, and missed an open jumper!

Howard received the defensive rebound and handed it to Kemba Walker to advance.

The Hornets still let Howard play inside. With his tendons, he squeezed to the basket strongly.When he turned around and was about to make a strong move, Ying Xiong rushed over suddenly, and he was so startled that he quickly protected the ball.

Howard was also regarded as the core of "one inside and four outside" back then, and he didn't panic, and quickly passed the ball to Yingxiong's defending McGee.

McKeeji gets an open shot, but he hesitates before making another shot—none!
Jeremy Lin got the rebound.

"Mike really has no confidence in this shot!" Mafu Albert shook his head and said.

"The reason for the lack of confidence is that you don't have a crosshair. When you don't have a crosshair, even if there is an open seat, you hesitate." Reggie Miller said.

Groom Albert nodded in agreement. In terms of shooting alone, NBA history-level sharpshooter Reggie Miller has a certain right to speak.

Jeremy Lin held the ball in the frontcourt and gave it to Ibaka in the high position.

Ibaka and Ying Xiong handed each other and cut in by themselves.

Taking advantage of Ibaka's delay, Ying Xiong changed direction and went to the right hand. After breaking through the feint, he stopped and leaned back, and made a jumper-hit steadily!
13:6, the Raptors still have a clear advantage!

"Mike is really a bit of a drag on the offensive end!" Mav Albert said.

"But Charlotte has no good way. Mike is the best flank defensive player in Charlotte. If Jerry Millam comes up, the offense will be better, but the defense will be down." Reggie Miller explained.

In the frontcourt of the Hornets, Kemba Walker forced a layup, causing Siakam's foul!

There were personnel adjustments on the sidelines. For the Raptors, Jeremy Lin was replaced by Lowry and DeRozan was replaced by CJ Myers; for the Hornets, Frank Kaminsky replaced Dwight Howard and Jerry Millam replaced Makiji.

The game continues.

For the Hornets, Jerry Millam received the ball from the right wing, facing CJ Miles' defense, after consecutive Crossover changes, he stopped and shot a jump shot——Yes!
At 13:8, the score was reduced to only 5 points!
"Charlotte has finally replaced Jeremy. The offense is of course helpful, but what about the defense? Who will defend? Could it be Nicholas?" Reggie Miller said.

Lowry came over with the ball and gave it to Ying Xiong on the left wing.

It was indeed Batum who defended Yingxiong.

Faced with Batum's defense, Ying Xiong, with the help of Ibaka's cover, suddenly activated the cat's waist and accelerated to the basket.

Batum couldn't keep up, so he had no choice but to watch the opponent go to the basket.

Ying Xiong went to the basket, faced Kaminsky, and directly forced a layup-the whistle blew, and the ball went in!

"And one!" the groom Albert exclaimed.

"Obviously, Frank's ability to protect the rim is far behind that of Dwight!" Mav Albert said helplessly.

"Well, Mike and Dwight are one inside and one outside, which has a great restrictive effect. In order to pursue offense, they are both replaced. In order to cope with such an ability to read the game, it is too much not to hit hard. Wasted!" said Reggie Miller.

Ying Xiong went to the free throw line and made an additional free throw, rewriting the score to 16:8.

After Howard's McGee was off the field, the Hornets' offense improved, but their defensive blood loss was relatively strong, and the point difference did not narrow, but continued to widen.

At the end of the first quarter, the Raptors led the Hornets by 31 points at 20:11.

The game entered the rotation stage.The Hornets' Kaminsky and Lamb suddenly broke out and played a 7:0 spurt, bringing the score closer to 4 points!
The Raptors are suspended immediately!
"After Ying came off the field, Charlotte seized the opportunity!" Albert the groom laughed.

"During this period, Toronto's own offense did not play well. There were too many mistakes, which gave the opponent too many opportunities to counterattack. After Kemba went down, under the impetus of Michael, the offense played very quickly." Reggie Miller said.

After Ying Xiong came back in the second quarter, the Raptors stabilized the situation, but did not open the score.So at the end of the half, the Raptors led their opponents by 2 points at 57:50.

"I didn't expect Charlotte to be very tenacious, and he was not pulled away at halftime!" Albert the groom laughed.

"When the second team competed, Charlotte won points. If Charlotte wants to win this game, the starter must hold on, so that there is a chance!" Reggie Miller said.

Section 3 started soon.

Jeremy Lin slowly dribbled the ball over, and with the help of his teammates' pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, he broke through with the ball.
