"Ding...because the Jazz tried to use the game led by the host alone as a stepping stone to rebuild the team's confidence, the Challenger series mission: Wrath of the Rogue was triggered."

"Rage of the Rogue: The host needs to lead the team to defeat the Jazz and score at least 30 points. Mission reward: 10,000 superstar points. Failure penalty: 20,000 superstar points deducted."

Liu Mang didn't mind the name of the mission Wrath of the Rogue for the moment. Why did he get at least 30 points? Liu Mang felt that the system was looking down on him... thinking that the other party might be because except for Korver and him, the other three people on their side

Without a very good shooting ability, Liu Mang stopped complaining and continued to defend him from four to one or even three to one.

Iguodala's three-point ability rating is only 74, and open shots are not stable. Maybe the opponent expects him to pass the ball to Iguodala.

Liu Mang looked at Boozer who had squeezed Muhammad into the three-second zone and was stuck in position to get the ball. He was so depressed. He won the championship with this guy for nothing!

However, the Jazz seemed to want to win today. Boozer was decisive in his position, Okur had a three-pointer to open up the space, Halprin was ready to hit the offensive rebounds, and Kirilenko led Korver to move to contain it.

Defense...

Liu Mang found it interesting to see that the Jazz seemed to be fully prepared to win. He used the young master as a stepping stone to gain confidence? Liu Mang found it so interesting.

After Arroyo advanced, Liu Mang immediately defended him. This little point guard was in the limelight last summer. If the opponent wanted to play well, Liu Mang would not dare to look down upon him.

Arroyo did not compete with Liu Mang. When he saw Boozer wanted the ball, he immediately lobbed it over.

The NBA is different from the national team. After playing for the Jazz for several years, Arroyo already knows what he should do and what he should not do. As an undrafted player, he is not very strong, so he has no awareness in this regard.

You will soon be unable to survive.

Boozer received the ball and felt the fierce physical contact from his familiar old teammates behind him. He knew the characteristics of Muhammad very well, but Muhammad's strongest point was not as good as his!

Boozer slammed into the rear. Muhammad resisted with all his strength, but was still knocked back half a step. Boozer turned around very quickly from a low position. Muhammad just took half a step back, and Boozer took advantage of the situation.

He turned around and pushed Muhammad aside.

At this time, Korver, who had excellent help defense awareness, flanked Boozer as soon as he turned around. When Liu Mang saw this, he screamed secretly and immediately moved toward Kirilenko to defend, but Boozer

Er had already passed the ball. Kirilenko received the ball from behind Korver and hit the ball with a front-on throw. By the time Liu Mang pounced, it was already too late.

Boozer's low post support is really great! A power forward who averages 3 assists per game!

After Kirilenko scored, he called on his teammates to retreat quickly. Liu Mang tried to counterattack but had no chance. After receiving Mourning's serve, he continued to fall into a positional battle.

Just as Liu Mang expected, after he dribbled the ball past the center line, he clearly saw the opponent's tendency to shrink the center. I didn't notice it just now, but I noticed it now. Halprin wanted to block the breakthrough on both sides of him and put him away.

Enter the middle and be able to double-team him!

Liu Mang looked at the timer on the Jazz's basket and immediately called a timeout.

"..."

The Jazz players were all ready to flank Liu Mang. The score scored by Muhammad just now was an accident. The defenses of Boozer and Okur were crowded together. When the two retreated from defense, they communicated and discussed the flanking attack.

Liu Mang’s defensive level.

Who would have thought that after just one round, Liu Mang called a timeout!

The Eagles players returned to the bench. Coach Kruger knew that Liu Mang was going to change the pitcher, and he also saw the Jazz's defensive strategy.

Who should I replace? Jason Terry is definitely not good. He will be needed later. Calderon is the best candidate, and they work well together.

But it's not bad to let new players come in. The opponent probably doesn't know how they play after adding a new player.

As for defense, the opponent does not have a single strong point on the outside. As long as he is active enough to pursue players without the ball and prevent the opponent from cutting and shooting from the outside, it will be enough.

"Wesley, you go up, Andre, you come down, Ace, pay more attention to passing the ball, Nazr, pay attention to helping Ace block the opponent from the flank, Alonzo, pay attention to catching the ball and dunking, Ace may pass the ball at any time.

..." Coach Kruger immediately made a tactical response.

…

After the timeout, Coach Sloan didn't know what to say when he called the timeout just now, because there was nothing that needed to be said!

The Eagles continued to attack. It took Liu Mang 6 seconds to advance and cross the center line. He spent two seconds observing, and there were 16 seconds left to attack.

Korver sent the ball to Liu Mang, who received the ball and dribbled it to the top arc, choosing to break through again!

Sure enough, the opponent still wanted to let him into the middle! Even though he knew there was a pit ahead, he still had to jump in. Liu Mang changed direction and rushed in from the middle. The opponent immediately attacked from a flank, and this time it was Boozer who came up first, and Oku

Stay under the basket and prepare to block shots and rebound.

Liu Mang continued to rush inside and leaned against Boozer, taking off!

Kirilenko and Halprin both pounced.

Liu Mang didn't jump up to take a shot. A hook shot like just now is the best way. He jumped up to pass the ball!

Liu Mang threw the ball in the air to his new teammate Persson who ran to the right corner of the basket. After receiving the ball, Persson quickly shot a three-pointer...

It was a three-pointer!

Persson came on for 6 seconds and scored the first goal of his Eagles career!

After steadily making a three-pointer, Persson roared back and made an "OK" motion with his right hand, placing the circle between his thumb and index finger against his right eye. This was his celebration!

The accurate veteran quickly entered the state. Liu Mang quickly retreated after receiving an assist.

When it came to the Jazz's offense, the Jazz still used Boozer's low-post attack, taking advantage of the fact that Rasheed Wallace was absent and Boozer became an absolute strength to deal with the Hawks.

The Jazz played well and the offense launched by Boozer was very lethal. He shot without double-teaming and passed the ball when double-teamed, showing a very comprehensive offensive skills.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! For the Eagles, Liu Mang's sudden attack started to dominate. The Jazz's defensive execution was very good and they resolutely attacked Liu Mang.

But Arroyo really can't guard two three-point shooters by himself!

When Persson made his first three-pointer, Korver felt a sense of crisis. He received the ball and shot more resolutely and accurately! The Jazz strictly implemented the defensive strategy of flanking Liu Mang, and the two started the game.

4 of 7 three-pointers!

Although the Jazz relied on Boozer and Kirilenko's passing, receiving, passing after receiving and other excellent forward support to play a very good offense, there is a saying, although it is a bit vulgar, but this kind of

This sentence makes sense under the circumstances.

Three points is always one more than two points.

Halfway through the first quarter, although the Eagles only made 5 of 12 shots, they made 4 of 7 three-pointers. In addition to two free throws by Liu Mang and a tip-in by Muhammad, they scored 16 points in the half quarter.

!

Although the Jazz made 6 of 10 shots from the field, their shooting percentage was as high as 60%, but they only had 12 points!

The addition of a veteran pitcher alleviated Liu Mang's crisis of being flanked.

With a pitcher, you can do whatever you want!

Although Liu Mang only scored two points on free throws at the beginning, and failed to score any of his three shots. Mourning's layup was also interfered by Okur, but he had a fixed-point shooter with a three-point rating of 86 and a three-point rating.

A veteran pitcher of 88, Liu Mang got 4 assists in half a quarter!

The Jazz called a timeout in advance, and the game entered its first official timeout.

It’s not like Coach Sloan doesn’t know how powerful Persson is. Although Persson peaked with the Cavaliers, he was a rookie with the Suns. In his rookie season, he helped Barkley win the second round of the playoffs and the defending championship as a small forward as a small forward.

The Rockets reached the tiebreaker. Although Persson failed to make a key three-pointer in the end, and even only made 1 of 6 in the tiebreaker, the Suns unfortunately failed to advance to the Western Conference Finals by one point at 114-115.

Persson impressed the head coaches of the Western Conference playoff teams that year. He was an outstanding shooter who played 700 games and made at least one three-pointer in 500 games.

But the reason why Coach Sloan asked the team to strictly implement the flanking strategy was because Liu Mang scored 60 points in the third quarter of the last game?

It's just that Coach Sloan didn't expect that Liu Mang's pass was still so accurate. He scored 60 points in the last game, but he didn't rush to shoot in the second game!

This frustrated Coach Sloan's arrangement from the beginning. The kid opposite had a head that was nothing like ordinary people!

Liu Mang returned to the bench and provided 4 assists in half a quarter, which was quite impressive.

Korver and Persson had been playing for half a quarter and were almost replaced at this time. One was young and the other was old. Korver made two three-pointers at the beginning, but Persson made 2 of 3 three-pointers.

After the score, he irrationally shot two three-pointers in a row. One was anxious to express himself, while the other defensive end ran for half a quarter and his physical strength declined. It was time to rest.

However, it was enough to hold on at the beginning. Coach Kruger brought on Jason Terry and Iguodala, and replaced Muhammad and Varejao in the paint. It was time to protect the rebounds, because Liu

Mang and Jason Terry are going to have sex!

…

After the timeout, the Jazz team made no substitutions during the official timeout, and everyone was still on the field. They were obviously going to fight hard.

When the Jazz attacked, Boozer hit a few low posts, but he couldn't move anymore. When he went to the low posts, the opponent replaced him with Varejao to defend him, and the Eagles started a wheel-and-wheel battle strategy.

Boozer pulled out for Arroyo to pick and roll, the ultimate poor man's version of the pick and roll combination. When Liu Mang saw Arroyo actually playing the pick and roll, he immediately took a step back, blocked Boozer who wanted to pass, and followed Boozer out.

It was Muhammad who took a step back and was not afraid of Arroyo's three-pointer at all. The NBA's three-point line is too long for Arroyo. This guy has played almost 60 games this season.

He scored 12 three-pointers, which is nothing to be afraid of.

Sure enough, Arroyo did not dare to throw a three-pointer after the pick-and-roll. This violated the first rule of the ball-handler in the pick-and-roll tactic. He has to shoot when he has the opportunity. Otherwise, how can he help the target to attract defense?

The Jazz came back and wanted to run a pick-and-roll, but it stalled at the beginning!

Arroyo hesitated for a second. Liu Mang and Boozer had already switched defenses and came back. Arroyo had no choice but to make a long two-point shot from the mid-range with a stop-and-go jumper... He almost missed the mark due to Liu Mang's interference.

Rub it on the basket.

Varejao had excellent rebounding awareness and grabbed the defensive rebound and immediately passed it to Liu Mang.

At this time, Jason Terry had already started running. Kirilenko and Halprin chased Jason Terry. Liu Mang immediately took the ball and made a fast break. Iguodala and Mourinho defended in the middle distance.

Hammud flew with both wings, and the cavalry company charged!
