0297: [The most deterrent before the atomic bomb is launched]
Backbite!
The whistle blew.
When five Knicks players walked onto the court, Adelman was stunned.
He was a little surprised.
He had thought it would be D'Antoni's run-and-gun army, but now he was in a combined column.
The Rockets are still their starting lineup, with Kyle Lowry, Vaughan Weaver, Ron Artest, Luis Scola and Yao Shu.
Kyle Lowry comes to the front court with the ball. Stephen Marbury immediately jumped up, Marbury was no longer as physically functional as he used to be, but his mentality was already the best of his career, and he was very aggressive in one-on-one defense. He took out the defensive momentum that he had been king on the streets of New York as a teenager, constantly flickering and moving to press, as if he wanted to eat Kyle Lowry alive.
With Alston traded mid-season, it took Kyle Lowry nearly eight seconds to hand the basketball to Yao...... Lowry is a solid and hard-working point guard, but he is nowhere near as good as Alston when it comes to passing the ball to a super center.
Therefore, Yao Shu was not comfortable when he received the basketball, and he needed to dribble the ball one more time to adjust. And just as he lowered his center of gravity to dribble and adjust and pushed Milicic to defend the space, Dugg suddenly struck from his side with lightning strikes...... Syllable!
He slapped the basketball on the face and fiercely rushed over to hug the basketball.
He had no intention of sharing the friendship with Yao Shu on the court. He always believes that the greatest respect for his opponent is... Do your best to defeat him!
"Snoopy and Yao are both Chinese, and they have a lot in common, such as humor, decency, and rarely release negative emotions with teeth and claws." TNT's commentator Earl Johnson analyzed on the commentary bench: "But there is still a huge difference between them, Yao will pull up opponents who offend him, and use gentle power to win everyone's respect. But Snoopy would never do that, he never let anyone provoke him, even the Celtic Big Three, he also chased and killed after winning! ”
"I love Snoopy. He is like the hero in a Chinese kung fu movie, he never takes the initiative to provoke trouble, but when trouble comes, he can always ruthlessly destroy the enemy. I like this kind of gentleman with a killer temperament. Charles Barkley made no secret of his admiration for Duke Snoopy.
At this point, Kenny Smith muttered, "So, do you think Ron Artest will learn his lesson again tonight?" ”
Before his words fell, Charles Barkley didn't even have time to answer.
Swish!
Snoopy on the court hit a three-pointer from beyond the three-point line.
The commentators were dumbfounded.
The players on both sides on the court were dumbfounded, and even Stephen Marbury, who passed the ball to Dug, was stunned: Just shoot like this? That's it??
Before the game, Dugg told Marbury: I've found touch in the middle range, you can give me more passes.
But this time, Marbury just wanted to pass the ball to Dugg a little bit.
When he got to the top of the three-point line, he was about to sprint. But Ron Artest quickly came over to press and formed a circle with Kyle Lowry.
If it was three years younger, Marbury would definitely have a head-on.
But now, he can only pass the ball to Dug next to him and let him overdo it.
However, he didn't expect the basketball to pass to Dug.
Dugg actually jumped straight out!
And what I didn't expect was that... Swish! I actually entered!
Isaiah Thomas on the sidelines was the first to react, he raised his hands and shouted excitedly: "Victory!! Perfect shot! ”
At the same time, Snoopy raised an eyebrow at Ron Artest: "Although this ball is a bit of luck, but Ron, it seems that there are only 9 points." ”
Artest's face turned pale.
He originally thought that Dugg didn't have the ability to shoot outside the three-point line, so he dared to let go of Dug to trap Marbury, but in fact, he also left a certain amount of defensive margin when he was trapping Marbury to prevent Snoopy's on-the-spot projection.
However... The Duke was able to shoot from beyond the three-point line???
Artest was anxious.
He looked at Adelman with anxiety in his eyes, who was still sitting in the tent and believed that things were not so bad that they could not be recovered. And... Didn't Snoopy just score 11 points?
Swish!
Yao Shu also used color in the front court.
Back to it.
Artest didn't dare to contain Marbury again, and even in the team's normal defensive tactics, he appeared cautious.
This gives Dugg, who plays at the free-throw line, a lot of room to play.
He became the mirror behind Marbury, and when Marbury burst into the paint with the ball, if he could score directly or pass the ball to Randolph and Milicic under the basket, he would deal with it himself. If it doesn't work, go back to Duge.
Dugg received the basketball, and Artest quickly got close to him. This gives him room to break through, and in exchange for a breakthrough is an increase in the threat of passing.
Zach Randolph and Gallinari benefited a lot.
The two are either 'eating cakes' or in the tactical running position of 'eating cakes'.
Snoopy completely broke through the Knicks' offensive system at the free-throw line, and they executed neither Thomas's Pistons nor D'Antoni's run-and-gun in the third quarter. In fact, Rockets coach Adelman is the one who is most familiar with the current Knicks' style of play, which is the Princeton system. Adelman had been trying to bring his set of kings to Houston, but to no avail. However... The current Knicks are unexpectedly self-taught. Snoopy became the most appropriate Princeton high axis. Earl Johnson commented on the commentary seat: "At a certain moment, I really saw the tide of the king of the pinnacle like a river of mercury! ”
"If it weren't for Yao Shu's 19 points in a single quarter, then I think the Knicks wouldn't have achieved an 8-point lead, but 16 points." Charles Barkley added.
For this, even former Rockets meritorious guard Kenny Smith had to nod in agreement. But he emphasised the role of the other players: "Randolph and Milicic complement each other in the paint field, and if Randolph improves his defensive aggressiveness, they could be the black and white bears in the New York box. There's also Jeffries, who is stronger than Christie from the Kings, who provides the most solid defense on the flanks and who is starting to show his talent for off-ball sports. There are also Gallinari and Quentin Richardson, who played the role of Stojakovic very well, especially Gallinari, who is expected to be another great European goalscorer! ”
Indeed, the Knicks' current lineup has a certain overlap with the Kings of the year.
Of course, the most important thing is that Snoopy, who has the ability of the No. 1 and No. 5 positions, after getting a certain amount of projection ability, his template began to move closer to Chris Webber, the most gorgeous representative of the four major forwards at the beginning of the century.
If, before the draft, someone says that Snoopy is going to play like Chris Webb in a certain game, then... It will definitely attract the scolding of all basketball experts!
And yet now.
And so it happened.
However, for Ron Artest, despite Snoopy's triple-double in less than three quarters, his score was still only 11 points!
After that three-pointer, he never tried to shoot again, but used that deterrence to constantly seek out breakthroughs and passes.
Dugg is smart.
He knows one thing better than anyone else: the atomic bomb is the most deterrent before it is launched!
Now, for Artest, Dug's goal is an atomic bomb!
After all, the consequence is to stick your tongue into the stinking water that you have been soaking in your socks for two weeks.
