Chapter 265 Is the mid-range shot a mid-ring shot?
D'Antoni also applauded repeatedly. Although the three-point shot was a little unreasonable, it went in.
In D'Antoni's basketball philosophy, as long as the goal is scored, it is a good goal.
This is also the difference between him and many other coaches. If a rookie on another team dares to throw three-pointers like this in the playoffs, he will probably be replaced in the next round.
But D'Antoni is different. He is willing to give players a lot of freedom on the court. This is also an important reason why Chen Yan can use his own strength to play better and better.
Chen Yan returned to the defensive half with three fingers raised. The reaction of his teammates and fans made him feel very excited!
San Antonio Spurs offensive possession.
Parker once again engaged Duncan in a pick-and-roll.
In this round, the Suns' defense shrank quickly. Parker did not choose to break through again, but hit the ball to Duncan.
Duncan caught the ball and shot from mid-range.
"Clang!"
At the beginning of the game, Duncan's hands were still a bit icy, and the basketball bounced out of the frame.
Raja Bell rushed to collect the defensive rebound and passed it to Nash.
The sun's counterattack is coming!
While advancing at high speed, Nash flicked the ball with one hand and passed the ball to Chen Yan, who was running diagonally from the side.
Chen Yan didn't dribble after receiving the ball, and took a sniper shot at a 60-degree angle on the right side of the three-point line. It was very smooth!
"Another long-range three-pointer!" Zhang Weiping shouted in the studio.
Chen Yan didn't deliberately pursue a long three-pointer, he just shot it when he felt it came.
"Whoa!"
Chen Yan's sudden pull-up almost didn't move forward, and the goal was scored very crisply!
6 to 2!
Chen Yan's two super long-range three-pointers directly ignited the enthusiasm of the home fans!
In front of the Spurs bench, Popovich looked helpless. This three-point shot was completely outside his plan.
With the blessing of [Sun and Sky Realm], there is no big difference for Chen Yan between three-pointers and a few meters outside the three-point line. His shooting rate will no longer decrease due to distance.
In some cases, long-distance three-pointers have a higher hit rate, because usually defensive players will not guard against such a long distance from the three-point line.
Spurs attack.
In this round, Duncan used the low threat to attract double-teams and then distributed the ball to Parker, who hit a mid-range jumper.
6 to 4.
Parker scored all four of the Spurs' opening points.
The Suns offense once again fell into a positional battle.
Chen Yan's fiery touch allowed Nash to find him naturally after halftime.
One step outside the three-point line, Chen Yan suddenly stopped and retreated!
This distance is already far enough, and coupled with the distance of the step back, the average defensive player may directly release the shot.
But Bowen didn't dare. With the lessons learned in the first two rounds, he didn't dare to let go no matter how far away Chen Yan was from the three-point line.
Bowen flew forward and rushed forward!
However, Chen Yan did not make a move. After making a fake move and hitting Bowen, he quickly transferred the ball to Diaw outside the three-point line.
The moment the ball was passed, Chen Yan bent over and took a step forward.
Bowen has rich defensive experience, and he judged that Chen Yan was preparing to cut without the ball.
The moment he landed, Bowen made a prediction in advance, turned around and retreated to the inside.
However, Chen Yan predicted Bowen’s prediction!
This forward thrust was just a feint. After a sudden brake, Chen Yan ran in the opposite direction and ran to a position two meters away from the three-point line at the top of the arc!
Diaw understood the situation and returned the ball to Chen Yan.
Bowen remained unyielding and turned around again to pounce on Chen Yan.
At this time, as a tough defender, Bowen's tenacity came to light.
However, he was too out of position and could no longer interfere with Chen Yan. At this time, Diaw also gave Bowen a shot, passed the ball, and used the screen to block him in front of his chest.
Chen Yan gained space to shoot two steps outside the three-point line.
When the opportunity came up, Chen Yan did not hesitate.
Take action directly!
Super long three-pointer!
Super long three-pointer!
What a super long three-pointer!
This distance is a standard logo-shot!
fxxk!
Seeing this scene, Spurs head coach Popovich couldn't help but cursed secretly.
To be honest, Popovich thought the first two long-range three-pointers were outrageous, but as soon as this shot was released, Popovich felt that it would go in.
really!
The basketball drew a long trajectory and then bounced into the net!
Feathered eagle bow with long feathers and arrows!
Chen Yan hit three consecutive three-pointers from far away!
9 to 4.
The fans at the scene were completely excited!
The cheers almost lifted the ceiling of the American West Arena.
The scene almost got out of control!
Chen Yan's three-point approach can be described in two words as exciting!
Thrilling like never before!
The Suns bench also looked incredible!
In the TNT commentary box, the only adjectives left for Barkley and Kenny Smith were 'god!' and 'god!'.
Popovich was forced to call a timeout.
Although the Spurs were only 5 points behind, the Suns had already gained momentum and this timeout was necessary.
The reaction of the fans at the scene also made Chen Yan very excited. He bumped chests with his teammates one by one and blew his palms.
He indicated that his hands were too hot and he couldn’t bear it anymore!
At this time, the ESPN reporter who interviewed Chen Yan before the game suddenly realized.
It turns out that when Chen Yan said before the game that he would increase the number of mid-range shots, he meant to increase the number of mid-range shots?
