NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

At the end of the first quarter, the Hawks led the Raptors by 34 points with 27:7!

This is something many people did not expect.

The Raptors' efficiency was not low. Except for a few times when they were blocked, they basically made all the other shots.

像花道就7球中了5球，在第一节拿下了10分4篮板1助攻1盖帽。

Das also made 6 of 3 shots from the outside and scored 8 points and 2 assists.

Although Doug Christie didn't score many points, he contributed two steals in the first quarter.

But it seems that Steve Smith doesn't seem to be affected by the "Scalpel" defensive tactics.

"Just like Hasegawa and Mitsui!"

"Once a shooter gets into the groove, it's hard to suppress him!"

Mito Yohei seemed to remember the reason why he secretly practiced three-point shots in the gym.

"Continuous three-point rain is also one of the best ways to attract fans and boost morale!"

"Hanamichi, it's dangerous!"

And just as Yohei Mito said, in the second quarter, Steve Smith of the Eagles completely took on the role of the team's firepower attacker.

In the second quarter, he made 8 of 6 shots, including 5 three-pointers.

The gap between the Raptors and the Hawks widened further.

Seeing the 13-point difference, Huadao had no idea what to do for a while.

After all, it is really difficult for an outside player who shoots three-pointers to block the shot in time.

Unlike the regular season, in the playoffs against the Hawks, he played more in the penalty area.

You can not only take on Mutombo, but also provide timely assistance and get him outside the three-point line. That kind of scene only appears in "Basketball Fire"!

After the second quarter, according to the pre-match arrangement, Doug Christie, the defensive vanguard, was to go off the court to rest.

But unexpectedly, he stood up unexpectedly and asked to lead the substitute lineup to catch up with the points together with Hanamichi.

"Three-point shots are the easiest way to catch up!"

"I will use my actions to show the league that I am also one of the best three-point shooters!"

A three-point rain for Doug Christie is coming!

…………

In the turbulent golden age of basketball in the last decade of the 20th century, the three-point shot was far from being as popular as it is today.

It is more often an alternative plan on the tactical board rather than a core weapon that dominates the pace of the game.

This is closely related to the rules of the alliance at that time.

It can be said that in any sport, the techniques and tactics adopted by athletes often depend on changes in the rules!

For basketball, the rules are more conducive to the performance of outside players and encourage offense, so the functions of "guards" and "point guards" on the court will be fully liberated!

After experiencing three rule changes in 2004, 2010 and 2015, the current NBA has become a game style that completely advocates "offense"!

All kinds of dazzling and chaotic offensive methods; from beginning to end, the smooth and fluent exciting offensive and defensive methods can stimulate the audience's adrenaline!

Under such circumstances, most teams in the league will of course adopt offensive tactics. Whether they can make the playoffs or win the championship is another matter.

If the team doesn't play well, the audience doesn't buy in, and even the tickets can't be sold, then most of the team owners who aim to make a profit will have to change people!

But in the 90s, the rules were more inclined towards defense, and there were no rules for physical fouls. It was even more unrealistic to use referee covers such as physical whistles and not blowing the whistle during the Tianlong Eight Steps!

The restrictions that defensive players place on offensive players are the greatest ever!

In such a situation, it is difficult to survive by relying solely on shooting, especially three-point shooting with a relatively lower hit rate!

But it cannot be said that there were no good three-point shooters in the 90s.

Like Reggie Miller, who spent the rest of his life with the Pacers; the previously mentioned three-point shooting percentage holder, future Golden State kindergarten principal Steve Kerr, the man the Purple and Gold Lakers couldn't get ~ Ray Allen; and Steve Smith who performed well in this game.

Compared with the above players, Doug Christie, who is known for his defensive skills, has a good three-point shot, but no one expects him to make achievements with three-point shots.

It was in such a situation that Doug Christie exploded!

In the third quarter, facing the Hawks' substitute players, Doug Christie made an unreasonable three-pointer [face shot].

As mentioned before, Doug Christie, who is 198cm tall, is not considered short for the No. 2 position.

And now, he is leading the substitute lineup together with Hanamichi, playing the No. 1 position.

In other words, he is 10cm taller than the Hawks' backup point guard Eldridge Recas!

This height is enough for Doug Christie to use facial cumshot as a regular weapon.

Especially since there is a little bully under the basket ~ Hanamichi in the interior, rebounding is more secure.

In just 5 minutes on the court, Doug Christie took 7 shots and made 4 three-pointers.

The three goals that were not scored were also scored by Hanamichi after he grabbed the frontcourt rebounds and scored on the second attack.

In other words, during this period, the Raptors' offense was 100% accurate!

No one was surprised by Hua Dao's performance. After all, although he is young, his strength is unquestionable!

But Doug Christie's performance is obviously abnormal!

Normally, scoring 16 points in a game was considered satisfactory, but he scored 5 points in these 12 minutes. If you don’t know, you would think he was going crazy!

And judging from their performance and desire to attack on the field, it is obviously far from over!

Eagles head coach Lenny Wilkens did not immediately replace Steve Smith, but instead replaced him with Mookie Blaylock.

The hope is that he can control the offensive rhythm of the second team and prevent the Raptors from launching counterattack fast breaks so easily, especially the unconventional tactics such as counterattack three-point fast breaks.

And in the following time, timeouts were called from time to time. This was not to help their players recover their strength, nor to explain any tactics, but simply to disrupt Doug Christie's shooting rhythm and destroy his condition!

This can be said to be a move that is applicable to all pitchers!

When the opponent's players are in hot form, immediately calling a timeout to disrupt their rhythm is like pouring a bucket of cold water on them!

There is no need to do anything specifically next time, the opponent's touch will naturally cool down and his hit rate will drop.

But what coach Lenny Wilkens didn't expect was that Doug Christie tonight looked a bit like the player in Game 6.

[Scalpel] and [Neurosurgery] are only separated by a wall!
