Basketball UFO

Yesterday's game against the Magic took a lot of energy from the Nets players.

Especially Jason Williams, whose hips have been stretched recently and cannot support interior rebounds at all. It was not until the end of the third quarter that Williams grabbed 6 rebounds and scored 2 points.

Rasheed was still on the court, and he took the initiative to pull to the outside. Divac did not follow.

Robert Pike gave the ball in time. Rashid was unmarked and shot a three-pointer directly. An open three-pointer went into the net.

Helped the Nets equalize the score.

"Oops, Rasheed can actually make a three-pointer." Dave Cowens' heart sank. If Divac moves to the outside, the inside threat will be greatly reduced.

Looking back, Divac continued to walk inside. This time the Nets arranged a targeted defense, and Daniels blocked the passing route.

Bogans couldn't get the ball to Divac. Give it to Mason again. Mason used his speed to throw Williams away.

Carter watched anxiously from the audience, "Has Jason had a headache recently? His reaction is so slow. It seems that he will be given special training later."

After Williams was thrown away by Mason, he was unable to enter the paint and had to guard against Divac. The two exchanged blows, which caused pain in the back.

Facing Mason who was on a layup, Rashid took off and blocked the shot. He directly blocked the shot. He couldn't do anything against Divac. He still had the ability to block shots when facing Mason's pick.

Rashid beat his chest excitedly and roared in anger, "Gan..."

After feeling aggrieved all night, I finally felt relieved.

The basketball was grabbed by Parker and moved to the frontcourt instantly. Kendall Gill had already started to speed up and rushed to the three-point line. After catching the ball, he made a layup in three steps and made a hit.

The Nets went ahead by 2 points again.

The referee also blew the whistle at the end of the third quarter.

"Just play like this. If they focus on the inside, Rasheed, you pull out and shoot three-pointers. They will use Mason to defend you, and you will coordinate and shoot when you have the opportunity." Calipari pointed out that today he was on the scene The ability to adapt has improved a lot.

Carter retained his strength and only scored 14 points in the three quarters, but he sent out 8 assists and grabbed 7 rebounds. Kendall Gill has scored 19 points and has fulfilled his promise. He will perform hard today.

"There is still one game left, don't worry." Dave Cowens arranged the tactics and indeed defended in a targeted manner. If Rasheed continued to pull to the outside, Mason would defend.

Divac still guards the inside. After all, Williams does not have enough mid-range shooting and running ability. This is the Hornets' advantage.

Glenn Rice took the initiative to answer the call, "I will play the main role on the outside. Carter was prevented from scoring by me today. There is no problem on my side."

Dave Cowens nodded, "Open a gap from Glenn's side on the outside. Pay attention to guarding Carter's breakthrough. He has a quick first step and is used to walking from the right."

"No problem, I'm sure he will score less than 5 points in the fourth quarter. The inside can make up defense at any time." Glen Rice has not lost his mind yet and knows that Carter cannot be completely restricted.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Carter appeared on the court. The score difference was only 2 points, and the outcome was undecided.

The Hornets have a balanced strength and are very strong inside, making them difficult to deal with.

Robert Pike gave the ball to Carter, and Glenn Rice immediately followed him and took a defensive posture, "Rookie, do you still want to shoot three-pointers? You only made one today, which is less than I played last night." "

Carter ignored Glen Rice's irritation and started dribbling in the low post. Glen Rice knew that Carter was ready to break through.

Sure enough, Carter stepped out with his right foot to the right, and his center of gravity immediately shifted, preparing to block Carter's defensive line.

Unexpectedly, when Carter's foot was about to land, he pulled back, flew back, and shot again from outside the three-point line.

Uh-huh! The silky shot seemed to be caressing Qin Lan's silk skirt.

"How many did you have last night? I only hit a few." Carter retorted at this time.

"Humph!"

Glenn Rice dribbles the ball quickly, is very confusing, and breaks through decisively. He wants to give it back.

Unexpectedly, Carter did not stagger, and after sliding, he took his steps back again. He saw that Glen Rice's center of gravity did not change, and his waist and abdomen did not move, so he wanted to trick him with his steps.

Immediately leap high into the air. The breakthrough action just now was indeed a fake action carefully arranged by Glenn Rice. He also jumped back and shot a three-pointer.

He has always had strong shooting ability, and this year his shooting rate is at its peak. He can shoot 47.7% on two-pointers, and his three-point shooting rate is even more terrifying, reaching 47%. He currently has the highest three-point shooting rate in the league. player of.

And Glen Rice led the University of Michigan to win the NCAA championship in 1989, and this year he also became the All-Star MVP in the Cleveland All-Star Game. He has everything he needs, and it's all good.

Seeing Carter's rapid rise, he felt a sense of crisis in his heart and wanted to teach the rookie a lesson.

A confident shot, thrown out.

I just didn't expect Carter to react so quickly and be so smart on the defensive end. He judged Glenn Rice's fake move and immediately blocked the shot.

Glenn Rice's three-pointer was blocked as soon as he took it. Robert Pike was the first to react, rushed upfield and got the ball, but Tony Smith reacted very quickly and kept up.

There was no room for a direct shot, so Parker passed the ball back and walked around the basket.

He knew there was someone behind him, Carter.

Sure enough, it was Carter. After blocking Glen Rice, he did not stop and once again burst out with terrible force and rushed to the frontcourt.

Glen Rice was left disheveled in the wind.

Carter caught the ball and was already flying into the air. He straightened his arms and performed a coquettish and violent dunk!

A combination of strength and beauty.

boom!

It seems to have hit the heart of every fan. I have to say that Carter's dunk was so beautiful that even Hornets fans couldn't help but cheer.

"As expected of Vince Carter, he can't defend himself no matter what."

"It's so fierce. I don't know what Carter will grow into in the future."

Hornets fans want the team to get good results and beat the Nets. He couldn't help but be impressed by his opponent's wonderful performance.

The Hornets players looked confused. What did they just say? Glenn Rice wants to limit Carter's fourth quarter scoring to less than 5 points? Carter seems to have scored 5 points.

Cassell stood up from the bench, waved towels with Daniels, and cheered for Carter.

Daniels has not been traded, and his playing time has been reduced recently, so he has to play the role of water cooler keeper. He waved the towel 5 times per game on average.

The Nets expanded their lead.

Carter walked up to Glenn Rice and said, "Come on, All-Star MVP."

"Gan, let's continue the duel if you dare." Glen Rice was so stimulated that he felt bad all over. The All-Star MVP was the most important honor he received, but he was ignored by Carter.

Finally, Glen Rice and Mason cooperated in the pick-and-roll, hit a jump shot, and quickly called on his teammates to defend.

Carter hoisted the ball inside, and Rasheed caught the ball inside. He was restricted by Divac and had no space, so he had to pass it out. People were also pulled out.

Cassel moved quickly and passed the ball inside again, but Williams was not confident and could not hold up Mason. He passed it to the outside again. Carter passed the ball as soon as he touched it. Rasheed and Cassel switched positions and immediately received the ball.
