Chapter 314 [Attack the Loophole, Invincible in the East]
Five minutes later, Byron Scott replaced Eddie Curry for Keith Van Horn. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This adjustment seems a bit late, the Raptors lead 18-10, the offensive efficiency is super high, Curry has problems with single defense and defense, and he was singled out by O'Neal Jr. to beat two.
After Van Horn came out, the Nets' offensive formation was more open, and Kidd and Martin broke through to block and break through, attracting O'Neal Jr. to switch defenses and gently throw the ball into the air close to the basket.
Martin jumped up in one step, his head was flat-framed with both hands to catch the ball in the air, he pulled the basket and did a pull-up, kicking his legs wildly, extremely violent! 18 to 12.
The Raptors attacked, Miller passed to Halplin on the right, who leaned on Kittels with his back and turned to the middle for a jumper, dodged the block, the ball bounced out of the frame, Kidd grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, and the Nets launched a fast break.
Jackson passed to Kittels, who chose to go heads-up and change direction, and after Halprin was out of position, he pulled a foul and didn't let Kittels throw the ball.
On the sidelines, Yang Rui asked for a substitution, but did not send Reid, Brad Miller went down, and Jerome James went on.
When he came out, Yang Rui called Jerome to his side and admonished: "Pay attention to the air cut route of the middle lane Kamartin, leave Kidd alone, let the defenders chase after him." ”
Most teams against the Nets blocked the box and put Kidd to shoot, because Martin's air cut speed is very fast and the bounce is amazing, making it difficult for him to rush and stop.
During this period, Kidd has not been nicknamed "Kibu Offense" by fans, and he averaged 17 shots per game in the playoffs, shooting only 41.5% from the field, 18.9% from three-point range, and averaging 19.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 9.1 assists and 1.7 steals per game.
Looking at the data, Kidd is extremely powerful, in fact, it is not a big deal to let him shoot, and the scoring efficiency is very low.
The throw-in was issued, Kidd tried to cooperate with Martin in blocking and dismantling, Jerome did not change his defense, blocking Martin's way, Kidd was not resolute and was caught up by Billups.
Kidd split the ball, Jackson singled out Halplin, changed direction and didn't shake off the defense with a pull-up jumper, was seriously interfered with, the ball was outrageously off, and O'Neal Jr. won the rebound.
The Raptors positional battle, Miller, became Carter's style of play, and the defender was still Jackson. The player pulls away and Jerome on the right gives Billups an off-ball screen.
Kidd and Martin were drawn to the right, and Carter led to the left and hit the ground and passed to O'Neal Jr. in the low post on the left.
O'Neal Jr. received the ball with his back and turned to the baseline, leaned on Van Horn to get up, and scored on the board. 20 to 12.
Xu Jicheng said: "The Raptors are really invincible in the East, the Nets are not bad defensively this season, and there is no way to deal with them, and Carter hasn't made much effort." ”
"Carter is a selfless player who has the ability to compete for the scoring title, but this combination of sudden points and shots is easier to lead the team to win, and the opponent doesn't know what he will do next," Zhang said. It's too easy for Ao to pick up Van Horn with the ball, and he should let Od play at this time. ”
Xu Jicheng sighed: "Carter is really powerful, among the stars who entered the best team this year, Carter has played much less time than Iverson, Kobe, and O'Neal, and the data is still very beautiful." ”
In fact, Yang Rui thought about letting Carter compete for the scoring title last season, and if he did, his popularity would be even higher. Compared to Jordan, how can there be no scoring champion?
But Carter is obviously too selfless, and he now prefers to brush up on the shooting percentage, shooting more than 50% from the field for two consecutive seasons and more than 40% from three-point range for three consecutive seasons, but unfortunately the free throw is almost there, otherwise he would have been in the 50, 40, 90 club.
O'Neal Jr. also reached his peak, averaging 21 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.3 blocks per game in the playoffs, shooting 50.3% from the field.
At this point, the Nets completed an offensive attack, Martin faced Jerome's defense, a low post throw missed the basket, and Halprin grabbed the rebound.
In the Raptors positional battle, Jerome covered again, Van Horn switched to defend the other side, and Martin went to defend O'Neal Jr.
Carter distributed the ball to Billups, Jerome cut to the basket, and Billups took a little space in front of Kidd, dribbled to 45 degrees and hoisted the ball to Jerome in the low post.
Jerome, who is 213cm tall and weighs 128 kilograms, is more than one lap larger than Van Horn, who is 208cm tall and weighs 100 kilograms. He was about to go directly to the basket, turned around and jumped up after receiving the ball, and scored with both hands! 22 to 12.
The Nets attacked, Kidd and Van Horn played blocking and dismantling, the Raptors blocked the restricted area to prevent the breakthrough, Kidd separated the ball, Van Horn faced Billups close to no good shot, and then passed Kittels.
Kittels is against Carter, and he can't get rid of it with the ball, and then find his teammates. Almost running out of 24 seconds, Martin received the ball in the low post and hit it strongly, turned and threw in the face of Jerome, and hit the iron again.
No matter how good the bounce of a person with a height of 206CM is, he can't be efficient when he attacks the meat shield center in the low position. Martin is in his second season and has played mainly physically.
In the Raptors positional battle, the players passed unhurriedly on the perimeter, the ball passed through everyone's hands, confirming that Van Horn was on the right side of the defense, and Carter hoisted the ball to Jerome again.
Jerome went to the basket in a deep position, pushed away Van Horn, Martin made up the defense, O'Neal Jr. screamed, Jerome heard the pass to the middle, and O'Neal Jr. was empty near the free throw line.
Jackson made up the defense, O'Neal Jr. distributed the ball to the left side, and Halplin made a three-point jumper from a 70-degree open position on the left side, which was his most accurate position, and hit. 25 to 12.
Yang Rui's replacement of Jerome is an obvious loophole in order to attack Van Horn.
On the surface, Van Horn's statistics are not bad, playing an average of 32 minutes per game in the playoffs, scoring 13.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, but in fact, he has a high salary and low ability.
He is slow to defend the outside, poor to defend the inside, and the only advantage is the range, which can withdraw from the basket. With scoring too reliant on shooting, he shot just 40.6 percent from the playoffs and 44 percent from three-point range as the only fig leaf, averaging two shots per game.
Statistics are not the only measure of a player's strength, most teams don't like players who are strong in attack and weak in defense. In Yang Rui's previous life, Van Horn became a homeless man after leaving the Nets because his defense was too bad, and he could only stay in each place for one season because of the 76ers, Knicks, Bucks, and Mavericks. He is a role model, and after the 06 season, he will retire without a ball.
Scott didn't call a timeout again, just yelled at the players to speed up the rotation. He wants Van Horn to play the role of withdrawing and fight with the Raptors very domineeringly, of course, this is an act of seeking death.
After Van Horn pulled away, the Raptors were not easy to defend, Jerome Kamartin cut the line and blocked the basket, but Jackson and Kittels both hit three-pointers.
The Raptors offense was from the inside out, hitting the basket for two points, shooting a high percentage and leading 37-24 in the first quarter.
Miller, who rested for a while in the second quarter, returned to the court to take the bench and play pick-and-roll with Parker. Parker can't break through the middle of the return pass, and Miller can make a second play. On the periphery, Reid, Dan Marli, and Kirilenko pulled away, and the two attracted the defense from outside the three-point line, and Kirilenko cut on the right side at any time.
On the defensive end, Yang Rui's arrangement is also aimed at the Nets lineup, although Kirilenko is thin, it is not a problem to prevent Horn, the two are about the same size, and after Van Horn is targeted, he can't get an easy shooting opportunity.
Parker and Reed outpaced Nets substitutes Anthony Johnson and Rousios Harris, and countered and won back-to-back heads-ups.
Scott couldn't wait for the official timeout before he made a quick substitution, and just like the Bulls vs. Raptors, the difference in bench strength between the two sides was obvious.
