Chapter 197: Speed! Velocity! (below)
Without waiting for the tactics to run out, he directly made a pass assist, and after tearing through the opponent's defense, he sent a pass to his teammates who were not good at attacking, almost forcing his teammates to shoot directly.
This kind of tactical thinking has already shown its unique power when Chen Mu played against his old club, the Suns, last season.
At that time, Chen Mu's run-in with the team was not as smooth as it is now, and the Suns' offensive power was the best in the league, and the fast attack seemed to be smooth, which was dizzying. In that case, the 76ers also used this tactic to catch the Suns off guard and gain a local advantage.
Now facing the Nuggets team, which is also bursting with attack power, but not as hot as the Suns, Chen Mu, who has finished running in with his teammates and knows all the players' shot choices and shooting hot spots, can naturally maximize the effectiveness of this move!
"Fast Break ...... in Positional Warfare"
Watching Chen Mu retreat, Iverson's heartbeat became faster and faster.
After the trade, Chen Mu made a phone call to Iverson, saying that he would win the MVP within three years, and use his influence to welcome back Iverson and win the championship with his good brothers.
At that time, Iverson was quite moved on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was also a little skeptical.
The Chinese kid is indeed very talented, but he is just a young player who is not yet 20 years old.
Winning the MVP within three years, the mountains in front of Chen Mu are extremely high, Kobe, LeBron, Howard, Dirk and others, as well as Oden and Durant, who are almost certain to enter the league next year, will they really give this fledgling young man a chance to win the highest individual honors?
Physical fitness, Chen Mu is very good, but it is not too terrifying in the NBA. If nothing else, it is said that Oden, who will enter the alliance next year, is overpowering Chen Mu in almost all physical attributes. If you really fight, you can't tell who can crush whom.
Basketball skills, Chen Mu is evolving rapidly, but the weaknesses are still obvious, dribbling, ball holding, face frame, even if it is Chen Mu's back-to-back singles, there are still many skills that have not been developed, to put it bluntly, it is still the three-board axe.
Does such Chen Mu really have a chance to win the MVP within three years?
If Iverson had doubts about this before, it is today. When he stood on the opposite side of Chen Mu and confronted him on the court, the doubts in the heart of Philadelphia's last MVP were instantly dispelled.
"This kind of basketball IQ, this kind of maturity on the court that surpasses all players of the same age, this kind of whimsical and decisive ability to completely complete the rhetoric with actions......"
Chinese boy, maybe he can really succeed!
The Nuggets are on offense again, and the players understand Blake's thoughts. Began to create cover for Iverson on a large scale. After passing through a few screens, Iverson successfully found an open space and received the ball to face Iguodala who was cruising to make up for the defense, and made a fake and real shot. Hit two more points.
“RUNRUNRUN!”
Before the basketball landed, the big yellow-skinned man had already stepped forward to grasp it firmly, stepped out of the baseline and passed the ball back, Miller held the ball and ran to the court as fast as he could.
Coming to the Nuggets outside the three-point line in the half. Miller was stunned, Korver and Iguodala came out from either side, and Iverson and Anthony followed. There are no too good passing opportunities.
On Miller's side, Chen Mu had also strode towards the basket, Miller looked at Korver on the left, but the basketball in his hand was a change of direction and was sent to Chen Mu on the right.
"He's terrible on the dribble, steal!"
Without a loud reminder from Karl, Martin has already started to work, this big man who can be called a good steal player at the No. 4 position, and even did the strange thing of averaging more steals than blocks per game for several seasons, and his hand speed is extremely fast, and he even took on the responsibility of defending the opponent's outside scorer at the beginning of his career with the Nets.
Chen Mu's dribbling was full of loopholes in Martin's eyes, and after taking a closer look to determine Chen Mu's dribbling habits, Martin quickly shot and reached out to poke in the direction where the basketball was about to land, seeing that he was about to touch the ball.
But in the next moment, the basketball was gone.
"Ball...... What about the ball?! ”
Martin's attention was so focused on the basketball that he didn't notice the changes around him, and by the time he looked up to his side, a figure had already swept by like a wind, holding the ball and rushing towards the basket.
It's Miller!
After sending a no-look pass, Miller didn't stop outside the three-point line and wait, but took advantage of Blake's momentary distraction and Martin's concentration on the basketball to start accelerating and rushing inside.
All this naturally did not escape Chen Mu's eyes, knowing that he was dribbling poorly, Chen Mu would hardly dribble more than twice each time, and after a rebound from the ground, he would collect the ball after one more dribble at most. When dribbling for the first time, Martin judged the timing of the steal, and when he dribbled for the second time, Chen Mu had already sent a hand-to-hand pass.
came to the basket and took off, Miller's bounce was really bad, and in the face of Camby's obscuring defense, there was no chance to attack the basket at all.
But at this time, under the basket, isn't there another person who is empty?
"Whoosh"
Turning around like an elderly disco in the air, Miller finally got the basketball out of Camby's waist before he hit the ground. Behind Camby, Hunter was let go again, got up after receiving the pass and dunked again.
The sound of the dunk spread throughout the arena, and the fans' eyes widened and they forgot about the cheers for a while.
No one would have thought that the 76ers, who focused on ultra-fast offense at the beginning, would actually complete the offense twice in a row by Hunter, who was the slowest and had the poorest scoring skills!
“HOOOOO-HAHAHA!”
This time the small cooperation between the three of them, Barkley who watched it was also high-tide, waving his arms strangely, and shouting excitedly: "Chinese boy! MYBOY Chinese Kid! He is the lubricant of Philadelphia, the transit point that connects all links, he is a super courier, and he wants to deliver couriers? Look for the Chinese kid! Hahahaha! ”
That's right, after the opening, Chen Mu only scored 2 points through mid-range shooting, in addition to 2 rebounds and 2 assists, the data looks inconspicuous, 2 is incredible.
But think about it carefully, every time the 76ers play a wonderful match, the most important transit point is Chen Mu. Whether it's a long pass from the baseline to Iguodala to the best offensive position, or a crotch pass to assist Hunter in scoring after the free-throw line draws the defense. Or the subtle one-on-one of the two-on-one with Miller in this round.
In every offensive round, Chen Mu is using his court to contain and send wonderful passes to his teammates.
Although these wonderful passes may not be able to directly create points, every time they receive Chen Mu's pass, their teammates will find that the opponent's defensive position is inexplicably torn, and they actually happen to stand in a position with an excellent vision.
This is the true meaning of passing!
The Nuggets attacked again, and Iverson butterflies swayed past Korver. Burst under the basket and caused a foul on Hunter, hit both free throws, and then quickly returned to defense.
The 76ers' fast serve from the baseline was temporarily suppressed by the Nuggets with the quick return defense of Iverson and Blake, and continued to play a positional battle.
Miller dribbled to the front court, and Korver and Iguodala were still stared at.
"Tactic One!"
Just when Miller was thinking about how to fight this wave of attacks, Chen Mu's voice sounded in his ears.
“…… OK! ”
With an OK gesture, Miller passed the ball to Chen Mu, and Chen Mu motioned to Iguodala to play as a striker.
Iguodalati received a hand-handed pass from Chen Mu, who took advantage of the situation to block Anthony with a screen. Iguodala made it to the top of the arc.
Over there, Miller was already in front of the skinny Blake, with a grim smile on his face (very foggy!). Leaned on his back, ready to be crushed by his inhumane back.
Iguodala then passes the ball. Miller held the ball with his back to the heads-up, and after shaking, he found space to score, which was logical.
"The choice is very good!"
Cheeks shouted encouragement to the players, clapping his hands constantly. Cast an appreciative look at Miller.
Miller smiled indifferently and didn't say much, just gestured to Cheeks with his eyes. It was Chen Mu who came up with this trick.
Behind Miller, Chen Mu, who was returning to defense, hid his merits and fame, and followed Martin meticulously, without seeing anything unusual at all.
"It's better to just fire the teaching assistant and let the Chinese kid be the teaching assistant, haha......!"
Even Cheeks, who has always been serious and serious, actually had such an unreliable idea in an instant, I really don't know how many Philadelphia people can be affected by Chen Mu's show and funny aura.
The Nuggets continued to attack, Iverson's hand was hot, the 76ers made a temporary change of defense, under Iguodala's gritted teeth, the former scoring champion did not have a good chance, and a horizontal pass that penetrated the strong and weak side just shot, Iverson secretly screamed badly.
Miller had been waiting for the connection between Iverson and Anthony for a long time.
With a snap, Miller made a quick pass to the ground, Iguodala took off to a quick start, and a cheetah ran past Iverson and rushed forward.
On the left, Korver got rid of Anthony's entanglement and quickly followed, on the right, Chen Mu had already made great strides and rushed quickly, and behind him was Martin, who was declining in physical fitness and panting and trying to catch up.
Where will it go? Is it left or right? Is it to shoot three points for Kyle, or to follow up with Chen??
Iverson quickly judged Iguodala's choice in his mind, and at the same time was also on guard against Iguodala's own forced breakthrough, getting closer and closer to the basket, Iguodala still did not slow down, Iverson was ready to start, even if he fouled to prevent the former little brother from attacking the basket again.
Iguodala passed.
"Whoosh"
The basketball was given to the right side, and Chen Mu, who followed up, received the ball smoothly, and as soon as Iverson turned around under the basket, he saw a black shadow rising into the sky.
"Bang !!"
With a strong dunk, Chen Mu seemed to have an uncommon enmity with the basket, and ravaged the basket fiercely. The entire hoop was shaking, and the cheers of the fans had just erupted, and George Karl finally called a timeout.
17-10, the 76ers led by seven points at home, and the Wajovia Center Arena was jubilant.
On the bench, Rodney heard Cheeks' call and slowly got up, his face full of eagerness. (To be continued......)
PS: The recent chapter is really too dense with the game, and the follow-up is already being adjusted, please rest assured, a large wave of off-field plots is coming! :D
