The Raptors attacked, Billups dribbled the ball across the half, passed to Carter, and the four pulled away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The tactics are simple, the newcomer Reid can do it all the time, he just runs along the side of the three-point line, and he doesn't have to cut into the air.
Carter got the opportunity to single out Crohill in the middle, dribbled to the left with his crotch, dribbled the ball behind his back to move his right hand horizontally, pulled the ball back and shook off a position, and made a quick stop jump shot. 4 to 0.
If you want to find a template for Crohill, Yang Rui feels that he is like a poor man's version of Lefou, with comprehensive skills, who can shoot and play the basket. However, his speed is not fast, his explosiveness is poor, and playing small forward is a cameo. Let him prevent Carter alone, which is a colander.
The Pacers attacked, and Best passed to Crohill on the right to singled out Reed.
Facing a rookie, this seems to be a good opportunity, but Reed is not an ordinary rookie, he played in college for three years before participating in the draft, he is 21 years old, he is very strong, 198CM tall, weighs 100 kg, and is about the same size as Carter, but his physical running and jumping ability is inferior.
He managed to fend off Crohill, who turned to the baseline with the ball and couldn't squeeze out of position. Krohill did not have a clear advantage in strength, relying on his height to meet the defender and was not sure, and the ball was divided out of the perimeter.
Reggie Miller relied on the cover to run, received the ball and broke through, O'Neal Jr. switched defenses to block the breakthrough route, Miller made a stop-and-go jump shot, and the mid-range shot was missed.
Camby rushed to grab the rebound in the frontcourt and was stuck by Brad Miller, and Billups easily picked up the rebound in the backcourt and threw a long throw to Carter, and the single fast break.
Camby's mission with the Trail Blazers was to rush for frontcourt rebounds, and he got used to doing that. The Trail Blazers have Pippen on the wing, chasing defense, changing defense, and supplementing defense are all top-notch, but the Pacers' wing is Crohill, running to the bottom corner and preparing to shoot three points, and Carter can't catch up at all as soon as he starts.
Carter sprinted straight on the left to catch the basketball, jumped off the edge of the box, and the flowing right-handed windmill dunked the basketball in. 6 to 0.
Zhang Li shouted: "Carter takes off!" Slam Dunk Contest-level performance! ”
Xu Jicheng said: "Carter is also a star among stars when he arrives at the dream team, the dunk that leaped over the French center shocked the world, O'Neal Jr. and Brad Miller are also All-Star level, the three of them are here, and the Raptors are still a super strong team." ”
The Pacers attacked, looking for opportunities through running, the Raptors players changed defenses in time, Camby cut to catch the ball, O'Neal Jr. retracted to the restricted area to help defend, and let Perkins go.
Camby's poor organizational skills were the reason why he was swept away by the Trail Blazers. Last season, he averaged only 0.6 assists per game in the Trail Blazers, and he didn't observe the side situation and directly took the ball to force it, and wanted to dunk with one hand, but was blocked by O'Neal Jr.
Billups picked up a basketball pass to Carter, who accelerated past Crohill with a behind-the-back dribble near the midcourt, and near the free throw line, drew Reggie Miller to make up for it, and quickly passed the ball to outside the three-point line on the right.
"Rookie" Reid was let go and took the ball at 50 degrees.
His left-handed shooting action is weird, similar to an anti-artillery shell. This kind of shot is called "shoulder-mounted", and the movement is not pretty, but in fact, most shoulder-mounted pitchers have a high shooting percentage, such as Bonner and Fisher.
Brush! The ball hollows into the net. 9 to 0.
The Pacers attacked, Reggie Miller wanted to return one, ran to catch the ball and made a three-point shot, the right side was interfered with by O'Neal Jr., and the ball deflected off the basket.
Brad Miller didn't take the rebound, but went straight out, showing a good ball quotient, and Carter received the ball and advanced and passed to O'Neal Jr., who was on the left side of the fast break.
Reggie Miller's rib fine body can prevent little O'Neal? Perkins chased the ball in the low post, and O'Neal Jr. ran with the ball and passed it to the bottom right corner.
Reed got another open spot and hit a jumper. 12 to 0.
The Pacers players were in a bit of a hurry, and Best made a mistake with a pass through the half, giving Reggie Miller a little small. Best is not a playmaking point guard, playing 20.6 minutes and only 3.3 assists last season.
Carter made a successful steal, and the fast break attracted the Crohill defense and then distributed the ball to the right side, Reed made a 70-degree jumper for three points, Miller was a little slow to chase the defense and didn't cover it, and hit another one. 15 to 0.
The fans cheered together, and Yang Rui stood up on the sidelines to applaud Reed with the players.
Zhang Li exclaimed: "It's Reed again, three three-pointers in a row, this rookie is too strong today." ”
Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "Yang Rui said before the game that he would train Reed to compete for the best rookie, and he is a rookie who fell to the end of the first round, so not many people are optimistic." Looking at this performance, Yang Rui's vision is too accurate! ”
"Reed's shooting is great and that should be the reason for being a starter. However, I don't remember any people saying that he was accurate, and he didn't play long in the preseason. Zhang Li said with a smile.
In the preseason, Reed was pressed to the bench by Yang Rui, and now he knows what he should do. The Raptors stars are all on the floor, and he won't steal the ball unless he doesn't want to mess around.
The Pacers players are a little confused, and the information given by scouts shows that Reed is not good at long-range shooting, and mainly relied on breakthroughs and back-to-back plays in college. So Thomas arranged that the person on the court who could relax the defense was Reed.
Why is this called not being good at shooting three-pointers?!
Isaiah Thomas, who was the head coach for the first time, was also stunned, and was beaten 15-0 in the opening game without calling a timeout.
Actually, the Pacers' interior bench is a bit strong, and Jonathan Bender, a high-pick rookie center in '99, has a range beyond the three-point line, but has a bit of a knee problem. Al Harrington, a big forward who is good at shooting, Jeff Foster, Zahn Tabak, a blue-collar interior who is desperate on defense, and many more.
With so many options, Thomas actually let the 40-year-old Perkins start, just because he can shoot three-pointers, this kind of unconventional and daring to surprise the spirit of the team, it seems normal not to call a timeout when the score is behind.
This kind of person, he's insane!
The Pacers attacked, Reggie Miller held the ball past Carter, and finally scored two points on a pull-up jumper. 15 to 2.
The Raptors also have weaknesses, and after Christie left, there were no defensive experts on the perimeter, so they could only rely on overall defense.
The Raptors attacked, Billups passed the ball to Carter, Carter held the ball in the middle, and the defender of him became Miller.
Billups played an off-ball screen with O'Neal Jr. on the left side, and the run received a pass from Carter, which attracted Perkins to switch defenses and dribble to O'Neal Jr. in a dribble.
THE 180CM TALL BEST COULDN'T STOP LITTLE O'NEILL FROM CUTTING INTO THE AIR AND WAS COMPLETELY SQUEEZED OUT. O'Neal Jr. took three steps from the ball and scored with a one-handed dunk before Camby could make up the defense. 17 to 2.
Thomas finally asked for a timeout, and the Raptors opened with 50 points if they didn't adjust their defense.
A cold sweat broke out on Thomas's back, he never thought that the Raptors without Maddy would still be so strong that the offense could not be stopped.
The impact of Maddy's departure cannot be seen as a starter, because Yang Rui has always made Maddie the team's sixth man, and the starter is Reed, who has a better offense than Christie.
On the side of the Raptors, Yang Rui and the players high-fived.
Reed smiled very happily and hit a three-pointer with confidence, and he felt that the NBA was nothing to be afraid of at this time, and it was more comfortable than playing in college.
In college, Reed is the core of the team, and every game will be caught in the bag, and the shooting opportunities are not good; With the Raptors, he has teammates he can rely on and doesn't face a lot of defensive intensity.
Reed laughed, that honest face and little O'Neal had to fight, and the team now had two bubble dragons.
