There was a commotion in the place.
This was the first time they had seen someone use this kind of entrance ceremony!
And, so... special!
The Sonics players subconsciously touched their chests.
They feel threatened!
This is to strengthen their memory and remind them not to follow in Bowen’s footsteps!
In fact, let alone the Sonics players, O'Connor was shocked.
No matter how hard he tried, he would never have imagined that Lin Ying would appear in such a way!
With such an opening that hints at violence, the Nuggets will definitely receive a warning from the league after the game!
However, Anthony and the others, who had not yet appeared on the court, were already laughing together on the bench.
They suddenly felt that Lin Ying also had a talent for comedy.
Lin Ying didn't think much about it, and even thought she was quite cool.
This was something he had thought about for several days and came up with a move that had personal characteristics and could deepen his memory!
After the opening ceremony, the rosters of the two teams were released.
Visiting Nuggets: Iverson, J.R. Smith, Anthony, Lin Ying, Martin;
Home team SuperSonics: Earl Watson, Durant, Jeff Green, Chris Wilcox, Kurt Thomas
The game is about to start, and the Nuggets players are in a relatively relaxed mood.
Although it is a Christmas game and they lost to the Celtics in the last game, because the SuperSonics are limited in strength, this is a night for them to enjoy the game.
Before Lin Ying took the field, he looked towards the Sonics half court.
His eyes did not fall on Durant or Green, but on Wilcox.
This will be the player he faces tonight.
Originally, Karl arranged for Lin Ying to guard Durant, but when Anthony heard that Durant wanted to defeat him, he took the initiative to change defense.
Because the Sonics were weak, Karl went with him.
Although Wilcox is not an All-Star like Garnett, he is well-known in Seattle.
When Ray Allen and Lewis led this team to the second round of the playoffs two years ago and were expected to win the championship, he played center.
He averaged 14 points and 8 rebounds per game and shot 59.2% from the field. His performance was quite outstanding.
Although the Sonics have struggled in the past two years, he has still maintained this performance.
Because of his strong physical fitness and outstanding explosive power, he also has a very loud nickname:
Seattle beast!
Jump ball from Wilcox and Martin.
Wilcox leaped high and put the ball back in the Sonics half.
This bounce was obviously stronger than that of Martin after the serious injury.
The Sonics attacked first, and it was Durant's off-the-ball tactics from the start.
As mentioned before, all the uncooperative members of the Sonics have been sent away, so the rest will naturally cooperate.
Thomas set a pick-and-roll, and Durant came out and received a pass from Watson and made a mid-range jump shot.
"Whoa!"
Basketball hollow bag.
Although his overall shooting percentage is not high, his shots are divided into areas.
For ordinary players, there is a big difference between the shooting percentages in hot areas and non-hot areas.
As for Durant, although he makes half of his shots from beyond the three-point line, the mid- to long-range areas are his hot spots.
2 to 0.
The Sonics scored first.
Lin Ying signaled Anthony's singles tactics.
During the Nuggets' previous winning streak, including the last game against the Celtics, the Nuggets used this tactic most frequently.
It's not that Lin Ying wants to build a good relationship or anything, but this tactic is indeed the most effective.
One thing you have to admit is that although Anthony doesn't like to share the ball, his individual attack ability is really very strong.
Especially when he is full of energy at the beginning, as long as he is given enough space, he is basically 70 to 80 percent sure.
The strong side was cleared, the weak side was widened, and Lin Ying fed the ball in immediately.
The person guarding Anthony is Green.
Green's physical condition is good, but unfortunately he is still just a rookie at the moment.
After Anthony received the ball, he threatened the three-pointer behind the basket. A fake shot put Green's center of gravity up, and a fake breakthrough made Green already run away.
"Whoa!"
Anthony's opening pull-up was also firmly in the frame.
The Sonics played the same tactics in the frontcourt, the only difference was that they changed from one side of the half to the other, and the passer changed from Watson to Green.
At almost the same distance, Durant caught the ball again.
"Whoa!"
Then, he seized the opportunity again!
Key Arena has been filled with cheers from Sonics fans.
Speed ​​of running without the ball, speed of catching and shooting, shooting stability.
Durant fully demonstrated his talent in these two rounds.
Karl walked to the sidelines at this time and stretched out his hand to signal Lin Ying to flank.
These two goals actually completely exposed Anthony's defensive weakness: his lateral movement speed is too slow!
This makes him obviously unable to cope with the pick and roll.
And because he is used to not defending, his defensive experience is also very poor. When he sees the pick-and-roll coming, he doesn't even think about squeezing through or dodging in advance.
Therefore, the Nuggets can only switch when encountering a pick-and-roll, but once the switch is made, Martin cannot defend him.
That's why Durant was given such a comfortable shooting space.
Lin Ying nodded, actually...he had already thought about it!
As a close comrade of Durant's in college, he should not be too familiar with Durant's current technical characteristics.
In addition to not really developing the ball, Durant's other weakness is passing.
At this time, he was no different from college. If he was double-teamed, he would basically be unable to play the ball.
In the frontcourt, Lin Ying continued to play tactics for Anthony.
The SuperSonics team attacked in advance.
But with the Nuggets' lineup, as long as you flank anyone, you will inevitably miss others.
No, Smith's counterattack would be empty.
Lin Ying's pass came to Smith and he shot a three-pointer from the outside.
"Dang!"
This was a good chance to score, but unfortunately Smith's knife might not have passed the security inspection.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from the right side, grabbed the offensive rebound and quickly made a second shot to score.
Anthony!
Compared with jumping, Anthony can only be regarded as average in the NBA, but his jumping speed is definitely at a historical level!
From grabbing the rebound to scoring the shot, Thomas in front of him didn't react.
And you can clearly feel Anthony's enthusiasm.
After Durant said he wanted to defeat him, his desire to compete was instantly boosted to 120%.
The Sonics attacked in the frontcourt, and Durant continued to move without the ball.
This time, as soon as he received the ball, he was flanked by Lin Ying.
Moreover, Lin Ying really knew him well, and when he was flanked, he would raise his hands and not give him a chance to take action directly.
If he didn't make a move the first time, he wouldn't have a chance to make a move later.
Durant: Good brother!
Durant was forced to give the ball back to Watson, and the Sonics' play ended in failure.
Moreover, Lin Ying returned to defense very quickly. When the ball returned to Watson's hands, he had already returned to defend Wilcox.
After Watson signaled to pull away, he gave the ball to Wilcox for a single.
Lin Ying lowered his focus.
According to his own understanding and the analysis of the coaching staff, Wilcox is a rough guy with excellent athletic ability similar to Stromire Swift.
So if you don't let him get up, you can basically prevent it.
Wilcox held the ball with his back and was not in a hurry to attack.
In fact, he felt a little weak inside, not because he lacked confidence in himself, but because of Lin Ying's actions in the opening ceremony!
He is the Seattle Beast, not the Seattle Beast!
He is also afraid...
After two strikes, he turned and hooked directly toward the free throw line.
"Whoa!"
Entered...
Both of them were stunned by this goal.
Wilcox was stunned because: Are you going in now?
Before the game, the coaching staff said that Lin Ying was the Nuggets' strongest defensive player. Is this a false claim?
Or is he too strong?
Well, probably both! Tonight is his chance to show off his talents!
Lin Ying was stunned because: Hey, is it so silky? Is the information wrong?
Although he used to be a data analyst, it is impossible for him to clearly understand everyone's playing style.
Especially a player like Wilcox who is far away from his era and is not particularly famous.
There is no more video data, more text, coupled with the wrong judgment of the coaching staff before the game, this is an error in entering the information.
Judging from the offense just now, Wilcox's low post offense is not as bad as imagined, at least it is above the average level in the league.
It's right when you think about it. With the dual-core players Ray Allen and Lewis averaging 14+8 per game, you can't do it without some strength.
The Nuggets attacked in the frontcourt, and the Sonics continued to double-team Anthony. Lin Ying hit the ground to Iverson who was cutting in.
The Sonics simply shrunk.
Iverson hit Anthony again, and Anthony was immediately left wide open.
Giving Anthony this opportunity is equivalent to giving points.
"Whoa!"
Anthony made all 3 of his opening shots and scored 6 points in a row!
This melon is very sweet!
4 to 6!
After the goal was scored, the Nuggets took the lead!
And from the opening scene, it can be seen that this Sonics team does not lack talent, but it lacks experience.
The Sonics advanced to the frontcourt again, and Watson began to organize new tactics.
It's still Durant's off-ball tactics, but just like the Nuggets' off-ball singles, the strong side is cleared.
In particular, Wilcox moved to the weak-side corner.
The purpose of this is very clear, which is to prevent Durant from being double-teamed when he catches the ball.
Watson's playing career was mediocre, and he was only a qualified backup point guard at most, but he could become an NBA head coach in the future and was very organizationally minded.
This did work, Durant ran out and successfully caught the ball.
But this time the quality of the pick-and-roll given by Thomas was not very good. Anthony did not block it, and when Durant received the ball, it became a one-on-one situation.
The fans at the scene started to get emotional.
Durant said he wanted to beat Anthony, and this is the best opportunity right now!
Durant and Anthony both looked a little excited.
One person wants to fuck, the other wants to fuck back.
The confrontation of real men.
Durant chose to attack facing the frame, taking two steps and then making a jump shot.
When he broke through, he encountered a tough confrontation from Anthony. Although he successfully completed the shot, his shooting posture was obviously unstable.
"Dang!"
The basketball finally hit the basket and came out!
Although he can't assist in defense, Anthony is not weak at all when it comes to defense!
Lin Ying caught Wilcox to collect the defensive rebound and passed it up. The Nuggets directly pushed for a defensive counterattack.
Anthony was really excited tonight, and he rushed out of the second three -pointer behind Iverson!
With the fast break of the golden double gun, Iverson took it to the air.
Anthony "嗖" rose into the empty, smashing the ball into the basket across Watson!
After landing, Anthony also walked around the sidelines, and then nodded crazy.
He scored 8 points in a row after the opening!
This is not a problem of sweetness and sweetness, this is simply driving unparalleled!
4 to 8!
After experiencing short -term backwardness, the Nuggets began to fight back.
After Watson's tactics, the ball gave the ball to Wil Koks.
Wilgos is full of confidence.
Almost the same kind of offensive method is still turning to the free throw line, but the way of shooting is not the same. It is a ballet jump similar to Duncan.
He has foreseen the scene where the fans cheered after the continuous score.
"Bang!"
However, his emotions have not been completely brewed yet, but it is a big hat that welcomes him!
How many times have you said, the necessary condition for Duncan's basic function is that the physical talent is excellent!
If you do n’t have a long arm, do n’t imitate it. If you imitate, you will be ready to be delicious!
However, after the ball came out, it was robbed by Green, and the ball right was still the supersonic speed team.
Wilgows continues to be low!
He didn't believe it, it was so easy to fight before, and suddenly he couldn't move. It must be that he had just been lightly enemy!
Green is a rookie, and after seeing it, I continued to give the ball in.
Wil curds confronted this time.
"Hey! Hey!"
The sound of muscle collision.
But what he didn't expect was that he didn't move!
Lin Ying, so hard!
But the ball is going to be all, it is too shameful to give it.
He turned his head and turned around.
And when he hooks, he has a small action of pushing.
This wave of wealth insurance is requested.
But what made him unexpected happened again, Lin Ying didn't eat his little movement!
When he pushed over, Lin Ying escaped sideways, and then jumped up.
"Bang!"
Eat my big long arm again!
Lin Ying, continuous block!
The fans at the scene were stunned.
The team's strength is bad this season, but when will their "Seattle beasts" have eaten this loss?!
This time the ball was robbed by Smith, and the Nuggets played a defensive counterattack.
Lin Ying "噌" followed by a step.
The supersonic speed team retreats very fast this time, 3 dozen in the frontcourt 2. 2.
Iverson pushed the ball to Smith, and Smith suddenly made a back pass!
Just like you can't guess if he has a knife, you can't guess if he will come to a pen.
It's okay now, you see it!
The average person who passed the ball could not be taken over, and Lin Ying also stabilized the ball to reduce the speed.
Originally, Smith had emptied the defense after giving the ball, but the kung fu Green who received the ball had been defensive.
Lin Ying didn't hide. In the face of this crazy old opponent, he jumped up to be a one -handed barbal ax!
Green strives to jump and want to block.
"Well!"
But it's a bit worse! The biggest long arm is best at dunk!
The scene was restless.
They thought Anthony had 8 points in a row and was invincible. I did not expect that Lin Ying's continuous cover and followed up the Tomahawk.
Who is this ?!
Chapter completed!
