Chapter 140 Full firepower, the walking scoring machine is online again!
Dunking is the most morale-boosting way to score, especially dunks.
Chen Yan's two consecutive dunks at the beginning directly boosted the morale of the Suns!
The substitute players on the Suns bench could no longer sit still and stood up one after another to perform a towel dance.
The Suns not only have an outstanding record, but the atmosphere department is also at the top level in the league.
In the Raptors' third offensive possession, Pierce finally touched the basketball.
Although he is not popular with his teammates, Pierce is the core of outside tactics after all, and the ball cannot always be out of his hands.
Facing Raja Bell's defense, Pierce held the ball at a 45-degree angle from the free throw line.
The Triple Threat Test Step alone lasted 6 or 7 seconds. From the perspective of the broadcast, it felt like an old man doing his morning exercises.
Although Pierce's style of play is very classical, his efficiency is guaranteed.
When there were still 9 seconds left in the attack time of the round, Pierce finally started after a series of tentative steps!
Pierce was not very fast. He took two steps to the right and then suddenly dropped the ball and retreated!
His signature step back suddenly opened the distance between him and Laga Bell.
"Whoa!"
Pierce's hands rise and fall, which is his favorite shooting rhythm.
4 to 4.
Before Harden came to the league, Pierce was the best outside player in the NBA when it came to stepping back. Compared with Harden's unpredictable footsteps, Pierce's stepping back looked simpler and more efficient. With his tall stature and stocky weight, he was
Pierce has a physical advantage when facing many defenders, so he often leans on the defender with his body, and after physical confrontation with the opponent, he chooses to step back to take action.
Sun attack round.
After Nash passed half court and saw that there was no good opportunity, he waved to Stoudemire for a pick-and-roll.
After the demolition, Nash hit the ground and handed the ball to Chen Yan, who was cutting through the air.
This pass is very essential. Nash's eyes were fixed on Stoudemire who was down the line. Just when everyone in the Raptors was paying attention to Stoudemire, Nash flicked his wrist and no-look-passed Chen who was quickly rushing along the baseline.
inflammation!
After receiving the ball, Chen Yan took advantage of the situation and started to attack the inside while holding the explosive bag.
Bargnani on the inside had just made up for it, and Chen Yan took off again!
It's simply a replica of the previous round.
But this round, Bargnani did not run away, but chose to foul!
"Beep!"
When the referee's whistle blew, Chen Yan held his abdomen high and scored hard.
and-one!!
Bargnani's foul was too gentle this time. He just slapped Chen Yan's arm and didn't even pull it down.
The purpose of a foul is to prevent the opponent from scoring, not to give the opponent this 21 chance in vain.
Bargnani also realized this mistake. After the foul, Bargnani kept his back to his bench.
As long as I don't look at the head coach, the head coach can't scold me...
Chen Yan stood on the free throw line, and the crowd suddenly burst into cheers!
It's not a defection. There are already a large number of Chinese fans in the arena who come to Chen Yan.
They held up signs with Chen Yan's face and chanted Chen Yan's name in familiar Chinese.
This feeling is special, just like playing an NBA game in China.
"Bang!"
Chen Yan's free throw was a little less powerful, but he was lucky. It hit the front edge, bounced high and fell into the basket.
7 to 4, Chen Yanhe returned to the defensive half after high-fiving.
Looking back, Pierce asked for the ball again for a single.
The attack method Pierce chose was similar to the last round. He first pretended to break through, then pushed away with his body, and finally took advantage of the situation and took a step back!
Pierce has a natural tonnage advantage over Laga Bell. After this push and retreat, Laga Bell can basically not cause any effective interference to him.
The moment Pierce withdrew his hand, a black shadow quietly appeared behind him.
"Snapped!"
Chen Yan jumped up high and caught Pierce's shot from behind!
Pierce was dumbfounded. When did this person appear behind him?
Chen Yan said that he has studied Pierce's step back. Pierce's step back is almost impossible to solve in one-on-one situations, but it is not without flaws. His shot is slow and his shot point is not high. As long as the judgment is accurate, it is easy to get behind him.
Cause interference or blockage.
After confiscating Pierce's shot, Chen Yan turned around and went down quickly, 1v0 in the frontcourt!
At this time, the Raptors only had Calderon struggling to catch up behind Chen Yan.
The two of them were in two positions. Calderon's physical fitness was average, so it was too difficult to effectively interfere with Chen Yan with this ball.
However, at this moment, Chen Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and suddenly braked and slowed down!
When he wanted to score a layup, he caused Calderon's rear-ending foul!
Calderon has a very high golf quotient and got out of Chen Yan's side one step ahead!
Although Calderon was not deceived by this ball, Chen Yan made a solid layup and scored two points.
9 to 4.
Barkley laughed when he saw this scene in the TNT commentary box: "Calderon almost dodged to the audience. This is the first time I have seen someone guarding fast breaks like this."
Kenny Smith said: "Calderon has handled it well, this ball hits another and-one!"
Raptors offensive possession.
Bargnani used the pick-and-roll to reach the outside of the three-point range and hit a long shot!
9 to 7.
Bargnani's defense is not only eye-catching but also soft. If it weren't for Bargnani's good shooting skills, the Raptors head coach would have replaced him long ago.
His style of play must have been popular in the small ball era of his previous life, but in today's era he can only be regarded as a softie by fans.
The Suns were about to start, and Chen Yan asked for the ball directly after halftime.
Nash saw that Chen Yan had scored 9 points in a row and was already open, so he threw the ball directly to Chen Yan's hands.
Chen Yan was not in a hurry to attack. He used his peripheral vision to see Stoudemire just running across the frontcourt at this time, and used his body to create a screen.
The Raptors immediately switched defense and did not give Chen Yan a chance to rush inside.
After the defense switch, Chen Yan and Bargnani formed a one-on-one solo.
This was the situation Chen Yan wanted to see, so he stared at Bargnani and beat him, bullying him to death.
This is how it is on the basketball court. If you don't pick on the weak, why should you specifically look for the defensive gate?
That's what Tietouwa did, and it's not suitable for Chen Yan.
Banyani was very afraid of Chen Yan's speed and took the initiative to take a step back.
After Chen Yan took the ball, he made a sudden step and then Bargnani took a big step back!
Seeing that there is such a huge shooting space, Chen Yan naturally cannot waste it.
An emergency stop, a pullback, and a three-point shot!
A basketball creates a rainbow in the sky above the Air Canada Centre.
Before the ball hit the net, Chen Yan had already celebrated in advance with his teammates on the bench.
"Whoa!"
With a hollow hit, Chen Yan made his first three-pointer tonight!
The domestic fans in front of the TV also got excited.
"Damn it! Chen Yan pretended to do it again!"
"Bargnani just stop defending and just retreat to the bottom line."
"Chen Yan scored the team's first 12 points, which is terrifying!"
"He looked unstoppable tonight!"
"With full firepower, the walking scoring machine is online again!"
