The Whip of the God of Basketball

Chapter 422

The game between the two sides began, the Hornets' first offense, Paul held the ball for more than half, and Nash led Paul. Paul held the ball at the top of the arc and quickly gave the ball to Peterson on the left, then Paul went down to the bottom left, Peterson returned the ball to Paul, and Paul held the ball at the bottom to face Nash one-on-one.

Paul's height is only 6 feet, but he rarely possesses outstanding skills in singles with the ball facing the basket. Although as a third-year student, his skills are not completely proficient, but when he is in the waist or bottom corner When holding the ball, the defender must pay attention to him.

Nash stood in front of Paul, tucked his waist, pushed forward, and did not give Paul adjustment room to break through the bottom line. After several physical contact with Nash, Paul did not choose to squeeze to the free throw line because he would be hit by the sun. Player's double-teaming.

He chose to pass the ball because David West made a screen for Butler from the weak side in the high post. Butler got a good shot space within the three-point line and Paul immediately passed the ball. In Butler's hands.

A C&S, Butler shot the ball and hit the first goal of the game, a skilful cooperation from the Hornets and Paul's excellent pass.

Leon watched the Hornets' first offense from the sidelines. He could feel that the Hornets and Scott were definitely prepared for this game. They must have made targeted tactics.

The coach of Scott, Leon has played against him many times, and he still knows him very well. He is very good at arranging tactics around the core guards to build the team, and can maximize the brain function of the core guards on the offensive end. The team has a clear division of labor and a very good combat effectiveness. Strong.

The disadvantage is that once there is no passing master in the backcourt, he will not be able to command. The thinking is relatively rigid, and the medicine is lack of creativity.

Of course, a coach like this in the regular season is very useful. At least this season, the Hornets have shown a very strong combat effectiveness. Although their record is not as dazzling as the Suns, after all, the Suns are a strong team that has run in for several seasons, but Leon is in After watching a lot of videos, I think that this year's Hornets will be a strong competitor in the playoffs.

At this time, the Suns had completed their first counterattack. Nash scored the ball to Bell, who cut into the three-second zone. Bell received the ball with a fake action plus a step backward and hit a jumper.

This season, Bell has more freedom on the offensive end. In the past, Bell's role was more to set three-pointers and defensive gates, but after Jascovihus came, Bell felt some pressure.

Jakovicius is definitely not as good as Bell defensively, but his decisiveness on the offensive end makes Leon in many cases willing to put him on the court to share the pressure with Nash, rather than let Bell on the court.

Leon also reminded his old man to play more openly on the offensive end and don't shrink his feet, so that the sun's slightly weak backcourt can have a stronger threat.

After that, the two sides scored a few more goals. The Hornets played in a straightforward manner, and the Suns were free and unrestrained. The offense was not entirely controlled by Nash. Everyone could participate in the offensive coordination and complete the offense In any link, initiate, conduct, move, and end.

The scores of the two sides rose alternately. Both teams are offensive teams. They played very open at the beginning of the game. Both Paul and Nash entered the state early and played very smoothly on the court.

So in the first four minutes, there were no dead balls, no timeouts, and only a few free throws. Therefore, the technical station issued an official timeout, and both sides took a break at the end of the game so that the TV station could enter an advertisement.

Leon continued to sit quietly on the bench without making any adjustments. He didn't even bother to speak, so he let everyone drink water and wipe sweat on the bench, rest and rest.

Steve Nash consciously assumed the role of a coach, constantly communicating with his teammates, asking them to pay attention to their running positions and tactics, and repeatedly reminding his teammates to "don't help defend, don't help defend."

The Suns assisted in the defense several times and gave Paul a chance to pass the open ball. Nash was also excited. He didn't want his teammates to help defend. He wanted to get Paul this little guy on both ends of the offense and defense.

This is a rare condition for Nash. Nash is indeed a very competitive player, but his ambition is mainly reflected in team victory, and he doesn't care much about individual duels.

It's just that tonight is different. Recently, many media have started to compare Chris Paul with Nash. Nash hasn't made it obvious at Paul's age, and Paul has played super high-level games one after another.

The contest between the newly emerging No. 1 position and the two MVPs naturally attracted a lot of attention.

A reporter asked this question before the start of the game, and Nash naturally used the official response to prevaricate back, saying that he only fancyed the game and only wanted to win.

However, before the start of the game, in an interview before the locker room, Leon intentionally or unconsciously mentioned that Chris Paul is a better defender with more comprehensive potential, which made Nash very unhappy.

So after the timeout, the two sides returned to the court. In the Suns' offensive round, Nash, who had not actively attacked before, opened the attack mode in advance.

He made a pick-and-roll match with Stoudemire at the top of the arc. Stoudemire cut outside, leaving a huge space for Nash in the middle. David West didn't dare to let Stoudemire, and Chandler made it up. Coming up, but Nash didn't rush, using his own rhythm to make a circle inside the line and slip out of the bottom line.

Paul followed very closely, and there were movements in his hands, but Nash was not disturbed. Suddenly, he turned around and took a jumper shot. Nash's move was very fast. Paul did not have time to jump and interfere. Nash's ball was already shot. out.

Such a close distance is too simple for Nash, easily getting two points.

In terms of speed, strength, and explosiveness, Nash's breakthrough is only a medium level, but his passing threat is too great, opponents generally dare not fill up, and his sense of rhythm is excellent, and he is basically not interfered by defenders.

Nash scored his first point of the game, and Paul's return came quickly. He quickly dribbled through half the game, taking advantage of the Suns' defensive footing, and with the help of his teammates, he scored from the center. At the basket, under Stoudemire's defense, a difficult right-handed shot hit the board and scored two points.

Paul's dribbling through the crowd is like an elf traveling between giants. In the end, no one can touch him. His speed is his greatest weapon~www.NovelMTL.com~Nash can't catch up with the ball. Paul's speed, but when he turned around, Nash immediately called his teammates to serve quickly. After receiving the ball from the backcourt, he killed the half court with extreme speed. After advancing to the basket, he did not choose to throw a single-handed shot. He did not. Paul's explosive power, but once again slipped the bottom line.

This time Chandler learned his lesson and followed it out. As a result, Nash turned over and passed the ball to the center with a one-handed pass. Dior who cut in received the ball and succeeded in the left-hand layup, with a beautiful offensive coordination.

The speed of the two sides was completely accelerated because of the duel between Nash and Paul. Of course, Paul was not to be outdone. After getting the ball in the backcourt, he did not dribble through the half-court this time. He passed directly to Pete in the backcourt. In Sen's hands, Peterson rushed forward with the ball on the right, throwing off Marion's defense and rushing into the basket to score a one-handed dunk!

The pace on both sides was too fast, and the players' defensive matchups were dispersed.

Leon saw that the two sides were about to start the rhythm in the first quarter, and did not think of calling a timeout to suppress the rhythm. On the contrary, he wanted the players to attack in this game to see if it was the Hornets' team that had a good attack or the Suns. The current unrestrained and free system is even better.
