shooting guard era

Chapter 196 226. Defense
After the first quarter, the Bobcats led the Celtics by 33 points 24 to 9.

In the second quarter, Ye Han continued to start. His partner was Carlos Delfino, who had just returned from Europe. He was a player in the 03 class. To be precise, he was still a rookie. He only officially joined the NBA this year.If he hadn't been traded to the Bobcats, which lacked guards, he would have stayed in Europe to play. After being selected by the Pistons, he was reluctant to play in the NBA because the Pistons didn't give him room to play.

The Bobcats' frontcourt rotation has also been fixed, with Kapono and Milicic partnering up front, and Okafor at the center position, like Ye Han, continuing to play.

The Celtics re-appointed Tony Allen and Ye Han, the point guard was Marcus Banks, the forwards Ricky Davis and Al Jefferson, and the center Mark Blunt .

The Celtics attacked, Ricky Davis broke through, and Ye Han clung to him, forcing him to a zero-degree angle on the bottom line, unable to hit the basket.

Ye Han is becoming more and more proficient at dealing with this kind of opponents with strong breakthrough ability. It is very difficult to block these breakthrough opponents.

Ricky Davis was forced to stop the ball by Ye Han, and it was not appropriate to forcefully attack the basket. Okafor was watching from behind the opponent.

However, Ricky Davis is an all-round player who has averaged 20+5+5 per game. He has a wide vision and pretends to force shots.

Ye Han raised his hand to block the opponent, and Okafor jumped behind Ye Han to block the shot.

If Ricky Davis really makes a shot, what awaits him in this insufficient situation is a bloody cap.But he passed it on!Jump pass to Al Jefferson behind Okafor, who hits a small hook.

Ye Han has paid attention to this unlucky guy who was squeezed out by James. To be honest, Ye Han has never seen another player who averaged 20+5+5 per game last season, and he is still a 24-year-old swingman in the rising stage , was sold by the team in the second season.That's why he pays attention to him.

To be honest, Ricky Davis' strength is really not bad, and his physical fitness is excellent. In the situation just now, he jumped up after being stopped close to the ball and observed his teammates sending such beautiful assists.

However, Ye Han could see from Ricky Davis' bleak back when he returned to defense, he was lonely after being sold out, and now he is only 26 years old and now he is a substitute, which is really embarrassing.

Ye Han picked up the ball and sent it to Delfino, and Delfino immediately passed it back to Ye Han to dribble forward.

In order to train Ye Han's sense of the ball all the time, Bickerstaff also racked his brains, never letting go of any opportunity for Ye Han to hold the ball on the court.

Ye Han had just passed the halftime when Tony Allen stepped in to defend him.

Very tough defense!
Ye Han felt that the other party was using strong muscles to slow down his progress.

But, in terms of strength, Ye Han is really not afraid of anyone. He scanned the surroundings, and he pushed the opponent from an angle that the referee couldn't see, pushed Tony Allen back a step, and continued to push forward.

But Tony Allen immediately defended him again, unable to get rid of it like a cowhide plaster.

Tony Allen clung to Ye Han and moved his hands up and down, almost hugging Ye Han directly, and there were definitely some foul moves.But this is at home in the Eastern Conference and the Celtics at home, and the referee didn't whistle.

Stubborn?Ye Han gestured for Milicic to come out for a pick-and-roll. He might be intercepted by the opponent, and the opponent was only slapped on his dribbling hand.

After using Milicic's pick-and-roll, Ye Han took a step to the inside of the three-point line and made a two-point shot. Tony Allen squeezed past Milicic and jumped high to interfere with Ye Han's shooting.

Tony Allen succeeded, and Ye Han missed the shot after increasing his leanback.

Al Jefferson grabs the rebound, and the Celtics successfully defend for a long time!
Tony Allen made a quick pass at the first time, Al Jefferson's long pass was in place, Tony Allen was very excited after receiving the ball, and succeeded in dunking with a 360-degree turn.

interesting!Ye Han was completely ignited by Tony Allen.

Under Tony Allen's rougher defensive action, Ye Han advanced to the three-point line, passed the ball to Milicic, who supported him in a high position, and cut into the interior.

Okafor blocked Mark Blunt behind him. After Ye Han entered the inside line, Milicic passed the ball very tacitly. He kept the ball and Ye Han made a layup.

Forced individual singles?Under normal circumstances, Ye Han would not make such a choice. With a big man who can pass the ball so well, he would choose the easiest way to score.

The Celtics attacked, Ricky Davis broke through the basket and double-teamed Okafor and Ye Han and missed a throw. Al Jefferson grabbed the offensive rebound and then used a beautiful turn to swing Okafor, who came back from the defense, and Milicic, who was already inside, made a big loop hook.

The Bobcats' offense and Tony Allen's mad dog defense played a big role. It became very difficult for Ye Han to dribble, shoot after a pick-and-roll, or even catch the ball after running.

Fortunately, Milicic distributes the ball. The three-person cooperation between him, Okafor and Kapono is not bad. Kapono gets a lot of open shots through his better and better running positions and Okafor's pick-and-roll. .

The two sides fought back and forth for several rounds, and Ye Han slowly discovered the opponent's offensive and defensive rhythm.

The offense of the Celtics lineup relies on Ricky Davis' personal ability to create opportunities for his teammates, whether he breaks into the interior and shoots himself, attracts double-teams and creates offensive rebounds for Al Jefferson Opportunities, or passes to teammates, have a very good effect.

On the defensive end, Tony Allen played a big role. Because of his mad dog-style defense, the Celtics don't always have to send another person to double-team, and more often they defend one-on-one. It is difficult to have gaps on the sidelines, and it all depends on personal movement.Under Tony Allen's wrestling defense, Ye Han played very uncomfortable.

If Ye Han knew that Tony Allen became so active under Rivers' chicken soup for his soul, he would definitely curse Rivers' eight generations of ancestors.

After discovering the rhythm of the opponent's offense and defense, Ye Han became concerned.

It was the turn of the Celtics to attack again.

53 to 55, the Celtics chased the point difference to two points left!The second quarter is almost over.

Rivers originally planned to use this lineup for a while to buy rest time for the main players, but they didn't expect them to recover the point difference bit by bit!
So Rivers decided to continue to let Ricky Davis and Tony Allen lead the team, and only replaced Blount with Perkins to enhance the inside defense and blocking ability.

After advancing to the frontcourt, Banks was ready to pass the ball to Ricky Davis, but he found that Ricky Davis was entangled with Ye Han, and he ran far beyond the three-point line before receiving the ball. The ball is almost to the center line!
Ye Han was going to use a more difficult defense than Tony Allen to deal with Ricky Davis. He found that his previous defense was too gentle. Since the referee's scale is relatively large, he can also use a bigger defense action.

Just experimented, as long as he doesn't make a very obvious foul, the referee won't blow the whistle! !
