NBA: Start with a three-point experience card

Then he turned over and made a Nowitzki-style golden rooster independent jumper.

Swish!

The basketball goes through the hoop with ease.

Next round.

Doncic still pressed Pope into the penalty area, and then made a fake pass to the outside Boshen.

When Pope was a little distracted, his hand lifted the ball from Pope's armpit to the backboard.

Not only hit, but also caused Pope to foul.

This is Doncic.

You can see that he is not fast and does not jump high.

Defenders can easily keep up with him.

But there are fake movements all over his body, even in his pores.

If you are not careful, you will be deceived.

The most important thing is that the shooting sight is not bad.

In the next two rounds, Doncic hit another step-back three-pointer.

This forced Pope to stick close to him.

In this way, Doncic showed another weapon: the standing long jump.

He faked a shot from the three-point line.

When Pope jumped up to block the shot, he jumped directly at Pope.

The two collided in the air.

The referee's whistle blows.

Pope made a three-point foul and Doncic made three free throws.

In fairness, this style of play greatly reduces the enjoyment and fluency of the game.

Although there was this kind of foul-making play in the past, it was to shake the defender up and wait for the defender to fall on him when he couldn't hold it, and then shot.

Now Doncic and Trey Young, even if the opponent doesn't fall on them, they will jump on each other and shoot at the same time.

So it is nicknamed the standing long jump.

In fact, according to the thinking of normal people, almost all of this can be called an offensive foul.

When someone falls, you jump up and hit them.

What is not an offensive foul?

But under the existing basketball rules, this is indeed a defensive foul.

Trae Young and Doncic just used the rules rationally.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the bearded golfer who got up at four o'clock in the morning to memorize the rules.

He's a master at drawing fouls.

Although the foul-making style of play was not created by him, it was he who brought the foul-making style of play to the extreme.

In the peak seasons, he averaged about 10 free throws per game.

This is outrageous.

Later, when fans, players, coaches and many media began to complain about this style of play, and the league began to consciously change the penalty rules for this style of play, the bearded player changed his style of play ahead of time.

No longer completely rely on foul play.

Instead, they are more inclined to rely on their own offensive ability and organizational ability to play.

And Trey Young and Doncic are still promoting their foul-making style of play at this time, which can be regarded as just hitting the league's guns.

So it's not surprising that he was criticized by thousands of people in the alliance.

Under Doncic's performance, the point difference between the two teams was reduced to 5 points.

Vogel saw that Pope couldn't defend Doncic alone, so he shouted at the Lakers players:

"Teaming! Force him to pass the ball!"

The current lineup of the Mavericks on the field, except for Doncic, the offensive starting point, is only Hardaway.

Hardaway's offensive threat is much smaller than that of Doncic.

So as long as Doncic is held down, the Lone Ranger's offense will be greatly reduced.

Some people say that Boshen can also be regarded as an offensive launch point.

Sorry, but based on his performance in the playoffs last year, he really didn't deserve it.

So when Doncic dribbled the ball across the half court again, Wang Yi gave up Hardaway, who was defending himself, and sandwiched Doncic with Pope.

Seeing that he was about to be double-teamed, Doncic passed the ball to Hardaway in advance.

Hardaway made a three-pointer.

In the next two rounds, Doncic was still double-teamed, and he was determined not to let him make a move.

But Hardaway played at this time.

With no one to guard, he hit two mid-range shots in a row.

In fact, CIC is his housekeeping skill.

As a result, the point difference was narrowed to 3 points.

But the Lakers can't help it.

During the timeout, Vogel said to the Lakers:

"Continue to maintain this defensive strategy. Even if Hardaway plays well, he can't let go of Doncic. No matter how well Hardaway plays, he will play alone. If Doncic plays well, he will drive their team."

"We'd rather let Hardaway beat us to death than let Doncic lead their team."
