Chapter 814: Continuous Breakthrough!
The Wizards are a little puzzled by what position this Nick is with the Nets right now. Not only was he a starter today, but he also played well! Chen's decision was risky, but he was able to make quick adjustments at some point, so he was able to control the risk.
For players who are on the fringes of the team, on the Nets' side, they still know how to fight! In Chen's opinion, the best state of the team is that the main players work hard, and the substitute players also hope to become the main team one day!
Such a team has a good competitiveness on the field! And the Nets are now embodying that.
Now the Nets have to worry about their ability to play on offense! Although the Wizards' defensive ability has declined rapidly, the opponent also has a good offense!
If you let them open it, it's really hard to say what the final outcome of a game will be.
Beal dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Morris didn't have a jump shot after getting the basket, Williamson quickly got the basketball and took the ball to the frontcourt himself, and hit a three-pointer under the bag of Porter and Wall! 15:11!
The reason why Brooklyn has Carol and Nick on the court is nothing to do so far is because Williamson is still on the court in this game! He's close to invincible to the Wizards right now!
The opposing team basically can't do anything about this guy in every way. The defense can't stop him, the confrontation can't fight him, and Williamson is not bad in terms of speed and footwork! In other words, this game is an event that can give him a sense of existence.
Chen has no opinion on the various performances in the game! So Williamson is more willing to show himself in today's game!
Wall dribbled the ball through the half court alone and quickly returned a three-pointer under Morris's cover! 15:14! The team's core guards are all on the court, and the Nets can't be allowed to play like this!
The power of their defenders at crucial moments of the game is recognized by the whole league! If one day it is said that the Wizards suddenly enter the Eastern Conference finals, it is estimated that not many people will be surprised. Their defenders are still very strong!
Sometimes the whole team is dumb, and at this time, a guard of the Wizards basically scored half of the points in a quarter! It's as violent! Therefore, when evaluating Moodier in the media, who is still young, he said that in his future template, Wall is one.
Strong body, can pass, attack, and grab rebounds! Nick slowly went to the frontcourt, saw Beal coming and immediately passed the ball to Lin, who jumped up and missed the three-point shot after Morris quickly rushed over to get the rebound and passed to Beal, Wall took his pass and hit the three-point shot again in the half! 17:15!
Chen seemed to be forcing the other party to be a little hairy at this time...... The attack speed of the whole team has been increased! Over the years, the Wizards have watched the Nets become a little stronger, until now they are about to crush them in terms of strength!
This season, because of the fluctuations in ability, they are basically accountable to the Cavaliers, Warriors, Spurs, Rockets, and Timberwolves. There's not much room to fight back.
Among the teams in the East, the Celtics and Raptors also lost to each other. For the Nets, it feels a little complicated. Although this team has also had a certain amount of exposure over the years, it is much less than the Celtics and Cavaliers.
It's always felt like their team was quite ordinary. But last season's results also immediately pulled them into the ranks of the strong teams in the East! Now it's a bit of a stretch to acknowledge their abilities. Who took last season's championship trophy?
Nick thinks it's better not to be so eager to attack, the players who defend him now are not ordinary defenders! He's tried a few times and found that he couldn't stand up to Beal or Wall with little chance of a blue-collar defender like him!
He can only wait for his teammates to feed him the ball or some other good opportunity to break through quickly! Lin passed the ball to him after half-time, and Williamson immediately took his pass and shook off Porter with a feint and rushed into the goal! 17:17!
Randy asks for a timeout at this point. Such a result was not satisfactory for him. What lineup does the other party have, so it is a tie with the Wizards, so when the other party lets the whole main force play, the Wizards still kneel?
At this time, Chen actually had the idea of wanting to pause. The Wizards' offense is gradually strengthening with them, which gives the Nets a dangerous signal!
"We're going to try to lead the game as much as possible in the first quarter into the second quarter, and I'm hoping to be about 10 points ahead in the first half......," Randy said about his mission, and the Wizards' players had a look in their eyes, Coach, you are asking for something dreamy.
As long as Williamson is the coach on the field, you tell us how to defend him!
"Burke scored, and Garnett went up in a minute. The main thing is that we are suppressing the momentum of the other party, as long as Bill or Wall is gone, our chance will come......"
It is estimated that the other party is looking for the Nets, so he decisively replaced these two people. Put the experienced Garnett and the good Burke on the field. Beal dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Gortat scored a layup as soon as he got the basket! 19:17!
Burke quickly took Garnett's serve and went to the frontcourt, and he and Nick reacted differently. On the field, he still has a very challenging spirit! This showed itself since he came to the Nets!
He has that ability and he wants to be that kind of player! That's why the Nets added money to bring him to the team!
In the face of Bill's defense, Burke quickly used his feet to shake off the opponent and rushed in! There are not many opportunities, and everyone around them is surprised, and one person jumps up and hits a three-point shot after running directly out of the three-point line! 20:19!
......
"It's a crucial quarter, and we have to keep that pace and try to open up the gap. Mozgov can get the ball over here in some moments......"
Chen was next to the bench with a tactical board and there explaining to his players. The fans at the scene began to live. They saw that their team played hard today.
29:27! The Nets only led by 2 points in the end. The Wizards are now going to fight Brooklyn for the first half! Whether it was the fans, the players, or the coaching staff, it could be seen that Randy was in a hurry.
For teams that don't defend well but have some ability in offense, they can only attack quickly and don't pay so much attention to defense. In this way, it is possible to kill the life.
What the Nets are doing is to prevent the opponent from playing the advantage, if the opponent takes the lead and widens the score difference, then the opponent will only be more and more morale when it comes to the back!
The opposing lineup didn't change when he came back in the second quarter, and the Nets sent Rose on the court. This also shows Brooklyn's intention in this section. Rose to organize the game, he basically doesn't organize too much, in this way, he actually wants the Nets to score quickly and overshadow the opponent in terms of offense!
Rose dribbled the ball to the front court, Williamson took his pass and ran straight to Oubre! With Mozgov and Oubre hanging in the air to dunk the ball! Then the referee ruled that Morris was fouled, and Williamson scored a penalty and successfully scored 2+1! 32:27!
Bill took Gortat's serve, and Gortat is not as powerful as he was when he was in his prime! This problem arose a few years ago and is now even more pronounced.
The Wizards are now also faced with the problem of finding a strong interior line. They don't have any problems at the back, it's mainly the interior line.
Oubre took Wall's pass and circled Williamson for a bit before making a quick pass to Morris. For Beal and Wall, it's still about passing the ball to their teammates from time to time. Otherwise, you always play on your own, especially in the early stages of the game, and your teammates will watch your performance.
The same is true for the big men, who can also be motivated by passing the ball regularly, but if they don't, they can be a bit negative mentally when they keep running back and forth on the pitch without getting the ball.
In the end, Gortat got the basketball and was pressed down by Mozgov in the air! The current Mozgov is still not very old in age! He can show his energy on the field!
However, if he wants to become a star-level center forward, it is still quite difficult for him. First of all, I don't have enough physical fitness. This is more obvious in the playoffs. That intensity of the game was still a little bit bigger for him.
Burke took the basketball and went to the frontcourt, and after Wal quickly passed the opponent, he heard the exclamations from the audience! Then jump up and hit a three-point shot! 35:27!
Wall dribbled the ball straight across the half court and ran to Burke! After using his speed to pass him at Burke, he then passed Rose, who assisted the defense, and then turned all the way to Williamson and scored a layup! 35:29!
After Trey got the ball, he wanted to go to the front court directly and wanted to go to the basket, and he also passed two people, but when he got to the basket, Wall slapped the ball out with a big pot lid! Burke's offense struck a big hit on Wall.
The fans at the scene were also excited! Not long after Williamson took the serve, he was directly cut off by Wall! Beal received the ball in the bottom corner and immediately after halftime, he jumped into the net with a long-range three-pointer! 35:32!
If the Wizards let the Nets play like this at home, it is estimated that they will be a little difficult to get by! They're in a hurry now, too! In this way, I guess the game will go into garbage time soon. Wall was the first to start getting all kinds of data!
Rose dribbled the ball across the half, and after his three-point loss, Wall won and fought with Garnett to grab a rebound and then dribbled to the frontcourt, Oubre jumped up and hit a three-point shot after getting the ball! 35:35! The two sides are tied!
At this time, the players of the Nets seemed to wake up from a dream. The Wizards' offense is still quite terrifying! It didn't take a few rounds for the score to come back! Chen didn't want to take a timeout, he had to watch to see if the Brooklyn players on the court were no longer capable of fighting back.
Williamson came to the front court, and the basketball followed. Without much thought, Williamson rushed directly to face the three defenders, and finally slowed down for fear of hurting the players and was pulled down by the opponent. If you fight hard, the other party is also playing hard to defend, so it is not far from fighting...... Williamson is still more measured in this regard.
I won't argue for that 1 point. Hit 2 free throws at the free throw line! 37:35!
Bill took the basketball and moved quickly! Oubre got the basketball quickly in the front court and then the jumper didn't! Morris jumped up with Gortat, Morris got the basketball and passed the ball to Wall, who shot a three-point shot without even thinking about catching it! 37:38!
Both teams want to see who can take the lead at the end, so the game starts to look good! Potter was replaced prematurely, and Randy knew that his team would have to keep some people when the opponent wasn't playing full-fledged at the time.
He even thought of having one of Bill or Wall, but he didn't. Let them stay on the field or ensure the team's offensive ability!
Williamson went on to pick up basketballs. Now, after half-time, everyone basically thinks of him. And his heart at this time is still beautiful~ It feels like a big-name superstar~~
This time, Williamson is not going to make violent layups. He pretended to speed up, and after breaking hard, his steps suddenly changed, and he ran to Oubre and threw the ball very softly after passing the opponent~ The basketball went in at the end of the Wizards' players! 39:38!
In addition to dunking, Williamson also showed his ability to pace and footwork at this time. From his performance in the playoffs last season, many teams have their eyes on him! This young man's ability is really good!
In the price negotiations with Williamson this season, the other competing teams now regret it! At that time, they still felt that Williamson was just a young man who had just arrived in the NBA, and this label deducted a lot of points from him, and because of this, his salary did not rise.
At that time, the Nets were actually ready to give this young man a single-year contract of $15 million+ dollars. The Nets have seen the value that other teams may not see! And here at small forward, when you get into the playoffs, East Hayward, James, West Green, Leonard!
This is something that happened to a large extent in the competition! How many people in the league can play with such small forwards now? Kawaii goes crazy and grabs the balls of his teammates! How terrible!
Morris took the basketball in the front court and immediately made a layup, which was spotted by Williamson and went straight down in the air! The offense has changed, and the defense is still very ferocious!
After landing on the ground, he fought with Oubre. It was almost time to scramble for the ball, but Oubre immediately felt empty in his hands...... I almost didn't stand on my knees......
By this time, Williamson had already run to the front court...... This ability has made the Wizards' players a little confused more than once. Williamson felt strange, looked back and found that the other party hadn't caught up, and jumped up directly!
