Chapter 598: Super Center!
"If they let Iverson play first, I guess there should be fewer of them in the later games," Chan said to Welch beside him, exhaling.
"It's hard to say, they still have to play a little more time in the last two games of the game against the Green Shirts."
"Maybe it's a little more stable" for the first game, although what will be the fate of the two teams until their final end, which is to be eliminated or immediately advanced to the next round.
However, the initial game was not so important for them. Of course, everyone wants to win, and there is always a team that will win the game, but there are many more games to come. Even if we are swept away, there are still three games.
The lineup of the opposing team in the first quarter was very good! Saric started the game, but Redick sat quietly on the sidelines watching the game.
Mike took the ball, and Griffin immediately came out and turned directly behind Johnson to make a strong layup to score points! 5:5!
The opposing team's main play tonight was to crush Brooklyn in the first three quarters of the game! Iverson took the lead to steady the tempo and then let the players behind him continue to play.
After Saric got the ball, he immediately passed the ball to Johnson, and Embiid took the basketball and scored against Mozgov! 7:5! Goodwin went to the frontcourt, Lin took the basketball on the other side, and used his height and speed to dribble directly to the outside to get a backward jumper to score points!
For such a play, Saric still didn't have much defense. After Johnson's jumper missed, Griffin picked up a rebound, and Goodwin took the basketball and ran quickly! Mike got Goodwin's pass in the front court and dunked directly for 2 points! 10:7!
Now the 76ers still have a lot of playing styles, such as Saric, Iverson, Fultz and Embiid on the inside! The Nets are careful when playing against these players!
If you find an opportunity, you will attack immediately! Now the Nets are in the lead! Saric came to the frontcourt, and he jumped up and hit a three-point shot after receiving the answer ball! 10:10!
Goodwin quickly got the ball to the frontcourt, and Mozgov just got the basketball and made a layup by Embiid and fanned the ball away! There was an exclamation at the scene!
Many media predictions seem to be about to be verified. Embiid is already very powerful now! Not only does he have a more domineering scoring ability, but he is also physically strong and has more flexible feet. The current Nets are playing against a good blue-collar center and a league super center!
Lin took the basketball and managed to get Iverson to interfere with the ball after a sudden jump! After seeing the basketball pop up, Embiid immediately knocked the ball out! Fultz got the basketball and ran fast! Johnson took the basketball and scored a layup! 12:10!
It's almost impossible for the 76ers to work on the center right now. If Griffin is allowed to defend against him, it will be more urgent in many ways. At present, the opponent's player allocation is indeed higher than that of Brooklyn.
Griffin took the basketball, and Mike suddenly flew up on the other side to get the rebound and dunk to score points! 12:12! This is his preferred way of scoring goals, and Griffin didn't force it when he saw his attacking line being killed, but just passed the ball out.
In the current game, the Nets can only work more on the offensive side. And also watch out for Embiid, if he's under the basket, the best way to do that is to make a jumper instead of going inside to find a hat.
Saric got the basketball, Embiid took the ball and directly singled Griffin with his back to hit a 2-point shot! 14:12!
Lin quickly got to the frontcourt, and when Mike got the ball, he wanted to pass it to Mozgov right away, but he hesitated when he saw Embiid standing there. Goodwin got the ball and passed it to Griffin, who immediately jumped up and hit a three-pointer! 15:14!
No one has opened up the score difference in today's game so far! The fans at the scene were also nervous. At this time, the Nets actually have some bottomless hearts. The opponent has never found an opportunity to open up the score advantage.
With Iverson's three-pointer hollow into the net, their manager asked for a timeout. 17:15!
"Well, Simmons! Come on, let's speed up the pace in the next game and strive to quickly open the score between the two sides. Both the outside and the inside put pressure on them! Attacking Reddick here...... "Brown was there patiently talking to the players about his thoughts.
"Defensively, try to defend as much as possible, and the main focus is on offense. It should be noted that Embiid and Griffin should help defend more and not let him take points too easily. Chen was somewhat puzzled by the opponent's timeout, but he immediately made certain arrangements for his team. I didn't notice the change in the other party until I got on the field.
After re-entering the game, the 76ers replaced Saric with Simmons, Bayless, and Redick, Iverson and Fultz! These players are still heavyweights! Griffin held the ball to the front court, Lin immediately took the basketball, and when he saw Bayless getting closer to him in the air, he immediately tilted it, and the referee blew the whistle directly!
Lin stood next to the free throw line and hit 3 of 3 free throws! 18:17! Redick then went to the frontcourt and didn't have three points. Embiid immediately got the rebound and scored points in front of Mozgov!
He feels as if he can't be stopped! Lin held the ball over the half, faced Bayless and hit a 2-point pull-up jump shot after passing it directly! 20:19! Compared to the answer, Bayless is not so difficult to beat.
37:29! In the ensuing game, the Nets seemed to see the shadow of their last opponent, the Hawks. They started a crazy three-point shooting! After the end of the first quarter, the difference was still stretched to 8 points!
The opposing lineup did not change after the second quarter, and the Nets were Mozgov, Quincy, Jonathan, Russell and Teague on the other side! If the opponent continues to play in this way, it is estimated that they will soon become the Celtics not long ago!
After a brief exchange with Welch, Chen finally decided to move the team from focusing on defense to focusing on fast breaks! Maybe the two teams will have a three-point battle in the first half!
Since the other party wants to fight like this, then this head can't let them attack! At the beginning of the quarter, Chan repeatedly emphasized coordination and how to handle the ball in some situations. And Mozgov and Embiid to grab rebounds, don't pass the ball in, don't pass it in!
Many fans can now see that the opposing team's current interior line is close to impregnable!! No matter how the Nets play, Mozgov can't take advantage of the basket!
It was only then that he felt the constraints he was being placed in the center of the field. Compared to the previous opponent, the Eagles sometimes have no problem with Mozgov being able to single-handedly play the opposing center. And now I seem to be completely suppressed by the other party.
If Lopez is still in the team, it will be a little difficult to face Embiid! At that time, the Nets used more outside play, and Brooke could run out and throw three points immediately!
But Mozgov is not very good at three-point shooting right now. Although he has practiced, the current situation and his three-point shooting percentage in the regular season are still forbidden by the team to continue to shoot three-pointers, which will be discussed later!
In this case, he was immediately restrained. You can only score points within a certain range! Compared to some centers in the league, Embiid still has an easier time scoring points in front of them. Then both the fans and the media will immediately have such an impression of him.
In the past, it was said that he would be a star center in the league who would grow up immediately. It may not be exact, though. He may soon be on the same level as O'Neal, Warcraft, Yao Ming, Duncan, Nowitzki and other super centers!
