King of the Point Guard Era

Chapter 209 The Speeding King
But to Vogel's surprise, Westphal didn't panic about this situation at all.The look of holding his chest with his hands looks extremely confident.

"Tch, isn't it just luck to pick two super rookies? Let me take them and they may not be worse than you." Vogel was a little jealous of Westphal's luck. A rebuilding team became the league's top team.

But the reality is that the Kings turned the game over by relying on the draft, and the current situation is just that the Pacers have just tied the score. If they want to win, they have to ask the Kings players on the field.

Today, although He Yixiang teamed up with Cousins ​​to set off a counterattack wave at the beginning, he hasn't taken a few shots himself. More opportunities are to rush into the inside and give the ball to teammates in other positions who are better. The game is not over yet, and he has already scored 8 assists, but only scored 4 points.No matter how you look at this kind of data, it should be obtained by an assist madman like Rondo.

Westphal believes in He Yixiang, so he believes that he can adjust himself.

Of course, He Yixiang himself thought so too. One of the Kings' offensive weapons is a sudden speed increase.Although they are not like the Suns five years ago, or the Warriors in recent years, they can bombard all the way. It's done very skillfully.

As soon as He Yixiang made the gesture, the Kings players on the field knew what to do.In an instant, the speed of running and moving without the ball on the field has accelerated.

At the same time, Iguodala stepped up to the pick-and-roll. Although in normal times, a larger body is an advantage for defense, it also means that it is difficult for them to bypass the pick-and-roll.

After bypassing the pick-and-roll, He Yixiang directly accelerated past Granger who was defending Iguodala. At the same time, Iguodala ran to the outside of the three-point line, took away George's defense, and at the same time gave Yi Jianlian an air cut. A nice pick and roll.

Yi Jianlian, who made an air cut, directly received a pass from He Yixiang on the other side, and scored an easy layup.

With this goal, the entire Kings team showed excellent offensive qualities. He Yixiang made a breakthrough pass after the pick-and-roll, Iguodala made two consecutive pick-and-rolls within five seconds, and Yi Jianlian made an air cut at the right time. Formed this smooth and smooth goal.

At this time, even the DJ on the scene was a little surprised and speechless when he saw this ball.Let's not talk about other things, just look at the offense. I'm afraid it is the strongest team that the Pacers have played this season.

This offense is also the effect of the king's acceleration, and the entire team is running fast.Thus the last chance to get.

On the defensive end, the Kings stepped up their pressure on the ball holders. After the Pacers' Collison went down, there were no reassuring players on the court except Granger.

The Pacers chose to shoot after a few hasty transfers of the ball. They have not yet adapted to the sudden defensive intensity of the Kings team.

After Yi Jianlian took off the rebound, he quickly transferred it to He Yixiang, but this time the Pacers retreated extremely quickly.Obviously they saw the king's plan to speed up.

But just like this, there is no way to prevent the King's attack. I saw that during the fast march, Yi Jianlian and Garcia ran in the same position. When the Pacers players were still facing their own players, Yi Jianlian directly Garcia blocked the position.

A vacuum of half a meter was formed in front of Garcia, and He Yixiang's ball flew into his hands in an instant.This kind of good opportunity is what Garcia dreamed of.Direct three-point shot, the goal is scored.

With this ball, the King just hit the Pacers who were not fast enough to match up when they retreated.Although the Pacers' retreat speed was good, they just ran back to their own half quickly and didn't match up with their defenders.This also gave Yi Jianlian the opportunity to draw Garcia's shot penalty area.

Granger, who was defending Garcia, was so angry when he saw the ball go in that he smashed the ball directly on the basketball hoop.He and Hansbrough even had a heated argument over who was responsible for the ball.

"Hey, did you see that I was picked and rolled? Why didn't you make up for it as soon as possible?" Granger growled a little angrily.

However, Hansbrough is obviously not a character to get along with. He was a tough player in college. What? If you defend a three-pointer and retreat so far, this is not an opportunity for the opponent to pick and roll, how can I make up for it?"

A Pacers fan saw this scene and spit out words starting with f angrily in his mouth: "What is this defense? Just give the opposing three-point shooter a chance to shoot a three-pointer directly. This game is Don't you want to win anymore?"

"Granger and Hansbrough are still in the mood to argue over who is responsible at this critical moment."

The King's offense is not only faster, but what's more serious is that the King's high-speed offense makes the Pacers' big center Hibbert extremely difficult on the defensive end.

Both of the king's insiders have one-handed three-pointers. Yi Jianlian made 34% of the three-pointers and Cousins ​​made 35% of the three-pointers. No matter who pulled it out, Hibbert had to guard against it.

A faster tempo means more pick-and-rolls, more off-ball movement, and more switching.

The short 5-minute game made Hibbert feel like he was out of breath after playing half of the game.The Pacers players themselves have a slow pace because their starting players are relatively tall, and their big positions are also their characteristics.

But now they were being dragged away by the king's forceful wave of acceleration, so naturally they couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

The Pacers missed a three-pointer in the last attack in the half. Cousins ​​grabbed the rebound and went straight to the fast break, but Hibbert didn't even have the strength to chase. He watched Cousins ​​cross the half court There came a shocking snap.

Seeing this scene, Hibbert didn't even worry about not defending the goal at all. He just felt that the tortured half of the game had finally passed, and he could finally rest.

The king's wave of acceleration directly hit a 19:6. At this stage, Vogel did not think about adjusting the lineup, but when he thought about how Cousins ​​ravaged his own basket when Hibbert was not on the court at the beginning, He just wanted him to keep going.

As a result, Hibbert's physical strength was about to bottom out, but the game was still spoiled by others. He really lost his wife and lost his army.
