Chapter 20 Battier who can upgrade defense to a new level!
Ricky Davis stared at Battier, the anger in his eyes almost overflowing.
"Boy, you're dead!" Ricky Davis shouted viciously.
Immediately afterwards, Ricky Davis bowed slightly and prepared to break through.
Upon seeing this, Battier quickly took two steps back to prevent Ricky Davis from passing him in one step.
Under normal circumstances, Ricky Davis might have given up on breakthroughs and used the gap left by Battier to shoot and score.
But how could Ricky Davis, who was already emotionally overwhelmed, do this?!
Faced with Battier's provocation, he had only one thought in his mind: break through! Then dunk to impress Battier!
Signaling his teammates to pull away, Ricky Davis suddenly started to speed and rushed to the left.
Battier hurriedly chased after him, staying close to Ricky Davis.
After arriving at the basket, Ricky Davis no longer cared about the fact that Battier was defending beside him. He jumped up with force on his legs, looking only at the basket, as if he wanted to put all his anger out.
Vent on the basket.
When Shane saw this, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
Then Battier suddenly dodged, came to the side of Big Z, and got stuck in position to resist Big Z.
Then Dayao took a step forward, came to Ricky Davis, jumped slightly, and slapped the basketball with the palm of his right hand.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
A big hat slapped the basketball onto the backboard.
The basketball bounced off the backboard and was grabbed by Battier, who had positioned himself in advance, and then quickly sprinted forward to start a fast break.
Running near the midfield, he suddenly threw the ball into the basket. Francis accelerated his run-up and jumped high into the air. When he reached the top position, he held the basketball in his right hand. He half-turned his body in the air, turned his back to the basket, and put the ball together with both hands.
He slammed it towards the basket behind him.
"bang!"
An alley-oop dunk brought the entire stadium into silence!
No one thought that the cooperation between Battier, Yao and Francis would be so tacit!
When Battier defended Ricky Davis previously, he kept close to his body but did not make any interception. Now it seems that he is using his body to force Ricky Davis.
You can only break through and dunk from the direction where Yao is.
Then he blocked his position in time to block Big Z and provide Dayao with an opportunity to help defend.
Then he used his position to grab the rebound and launch a fast break, alley-ooping to assist his teammates!
Such a performance made countless Rockets fans feel a little numb!
This is completely different from Posey's way of defending by relying on his physical fitness and defensive awareness!
Battier plays completely with his brain, using the abilities of every teammate around him to control the defense and connect the previous and the next.
"Beautiful! Battier's defense and offense are so beautiful!" Barkley couldn't help but praise in the commentary room.
"Such a player's ability cannot be expressed by statistics! I finally understand why Dawson would trade Posey for Battier! This wave of Rockets has made a lot of money! Players like Battier can
Connecting the entire Rockets' defense can completely raise the Rockets' defense to a higher level. This is not an effect that can be brought about by a player with strong defensive ability in one position alone!" Kenny Smith's praise was higher than that of Buck.
Leigh is more straightforward. He previously played point guard, and he is more sensitive to subtle changes on the court.
A smile appeared on Battier's face, and he looked at Ricky Davis after high-fiving Francis.
Is it useful for you to break through quickly?! I will let you break through me and you can score a goal?!
"Beep!"
The Cavaliers' head coach had to call a timeout.
Ricky Davis is like a bomb that may explode at any time, and he must be calmed down.
After he came off the court, members of the Cavaliers' coaching staff gathered around him and kept persuading him with kind words. Only then did Ricky Davis wake up a little and realized that he had been a little over the top.
On the Rockets side, Han Ning hugged Shane hard.
Battier's previous performance really satisfied him.
This is why Posey's defensive ability is very good, and he also has to find a way to replace Battier.
With Battier here, no matter what kind of defensive tactics the Rockets want to deploy, Han Ning can try it with ease.
"Well done!"
"Thank you, boss." Shane said with some embarrassment.
Han Ning suddenly put his arm around Battier's shoulders and said: "Ricky Davis's temper is a bit hot. You can continue to attack this point later and find ways to cause him to foul! In today's game, I want you to play a superstar.
With such a performance, you have unlimited fire rights! Tell everyone that you are no worse than Percy!"
Shane looked at Han Ning in surprise. He never thought that Han Ning would say such a thing to him.
The team's current number one star is Francis, followed by Yao. Even further down the list should be Old Cat Mobley, and it's never his turn to occupy the ball.
Dayao Han on the side smiled and explained: "The boss has always been like this. When I didn't perform well before, the boss also gave me such an opportunity."
Francis also smiled and patted Battier on the back and said: "Boy, this is it! If I don't get double figures in assists in this game, you have to be responsible for carrying my shoes!"
When Battier heard the team's two superstars say this, he finally felt confident. At the same time, he began to feel lucky. He was really lucky to be able to play in such a team!
The game paused. Ricky Davis asked for the ball from the baseline and reached the top of the key. Battier was still defending him.
Dribbling with both hands, he kept changing directions back and forth in front of him, and suddenly made a gesture to the right to break through. After attracting Battier's body center of gravity, he made an emergency stop and took the basketball back, a beautiful crossover display.
Show off Ricky Davis' streetball skills.
However, Battier reacted very quickly. After taking a step forward, he pulled his body's center of gravity back and followed Ricky Davis closely without losing his position.
Ricky Davis originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to break through to the left. After seeing Battier guarding him, he gave up and continued to break through. He suddenly took off and made a pull-up jumper!
Battier tried his best to take off, but failed to touch the basketball.
"Bang!"
"Whoa!"
Being able to become the boss of a team, Ricky Davis's strength cannot be underestimated. Especially after calming down, he can still pose a considerable threat to the Rockets.
When Han Ning saw this, he shouted loudly from the sidelines: "Bartier! Tactics! Tactics!"
Battier immediately recovered, came to the right, faced Ricky Davis's marking, and took the initiative to ask Francis for the ball.
Chapter completed!
