Chapter 147 George Karl's Flower Work

Brooks was not sure to bypass Yi Jianlian and lob the ball to Yao Ming.

There are not many point guards in the league who can accurately pass the ball to Yao Ming under Yi Jianlian's forward defense.

After all, Nash Kidd Paul Deron Liu Wei. . .

There seems to be some weird name mixed in.

Yi Jianlian's top-level physical fitness among yellow races makes him not far behind Yao Ming in air dominance.

In short, he can jump higher than Yao Ming.

As a traditional big center, Yao Ming does not have the incredible athletic ability of the four big centers. He moves slowly and has always performed poorly when facing the defense around the front.

However, Yao Ming's weakness doesn't stop there.

After Artest's shot hit the iron, Li Ran jumped high and grabbed the defensive rebound before Yao Ming.

Coming to the frontcourt, the Nuggets put on another formation that everyone couldn't understand.

Anthony himself fell in the low post, and the other four all pulled beyond the three-point line.

The one-star four-shooting style of play has appeared many times in the league.

But what does it matter if you are a small forward in the low post?

Yao Ming had a headache. Seeing Yi Jianlian standing outside the 45-degree three-point line, a difficult decision appeared in front of him.

To follow or not to follow?
If you follow up, once Li Ran breaks through, the inside line will be empty. In this game, Li Ran will still face Scola, and Artest will have no way to defend Li Ran.

He went to talk to Li Ran, JR can break the Argentine power forward into a sieve.

If you don't follow out, the UAE's three-pointer is really daring to score.

In the end Yao Ming still chose to go out.

The Nuggets have two options for this ball. Anthony plays Battier in the low post, or Li Ran breaks through with the ball on the outside.

Billups passed the ball to Li Ran, who faced Scola and almost broke his ankle.

Breaking into the inside, how could Battier, who was defending Anthony, be able to defend Li Ran.

He stood under the basket conscientiously and wanted to make Li Ran an offensive foul, but Li Ran directly rode on him.

The offensive foul was not caused, but a foul of his own.

The first offense of the Nuggets caught everyone's eyes, how can they still play like this?

Every step hits Mosaic's weakness, and every matchup is a dislocation.

But Adelman is not a good person, he immediately made adjustments on the spot.

"Yao, you go to the low post, Sean, you pull it out!"

What Adelman thought was, since you only have one player in the low post, then I just need to keep Yao Ming inside, and the others will follow suit.

However, when Yao Ming came to the inside and changed defense with Battier according to his words, Anthony ran out unexpectedly. . .

Yi Jianlian came to the inside and at the same time brought back Battier who had just gone out.

It's big Yao.

Are you not a bully?

Facing the Nuggets who were clearly prepared, it was not so timely for Mosaic to adjust his defensive strategy.

This allowed Yao Ming to pull back to defend the United Arab Emirates. Not to mention the physical energy spent going in and out, when the two switched positions, Yi Jianlian and Anthony were properly vacant.

It may be difficult for Yi Jianlian to play other insiders.

But you Battier is a perimeter player.

Easily, the UAE squeezed Battier into the penalty area, turned around and made a jumper.

In the penalty area, Battier's eye-closed defense is not so good. To put it bluntly, it is replaced by O'Neal, who can hit the ball with his eyes closed.

Adelman sat waxed.

He finally knew why George Karl put O'Neal off the court.

The old guy has too many cards in his hand.

Although Yi Jianlian's defense around the front is not easy every time, and once the ball is successfully passed to Yao Ming, Yao Ming is equal to no one to defend, but this greatly reduces Mosaic's offensive efficiency after all.

And George Karl prepared more than that for this game, but he didn't intend to play all his cards at once.

After playing for half a quarter, seeing that the point difference was gradually widened, Adelman simply changed his mind and replaced Yao Ming with McDyess.

At this time, he hoped that McGrady could sit on the bench intact.

It's a pity that due to injuries, McGrady announced his reimbursement for the season after only playing 35 games this season, and even broke his relationship with Mosaic because he privately disclosed his injury to the media.

It is impossible to play, McGrady's departure has entered the countdown.

After McDyess came on the court, Mosaic immediately transformed from playing Yao Ming to playing outside, and Brooks became active.

He is ready to use his super fast speed to help the team tear a hole in the Nuggets' defense.

However, the person standing in front of Brooks changed from Billups to Li Ran.

This switch of defense was a godsend move. After Yao Ming left the field, the UAE had no defensive pressure and was able to play against McDyess with ease.

And Anthony, who sits on the inside offensively, has no pressure against Scola, who basically relies on acting on defense.

In this way, Li Ran can devote more energy to the defensive end.

Little Black Dou became another victim of Li Ran's men.

At this time, Brooks's inner description is probably like this.

I am Aaron Brooks, Admiral Mosaic, who will come, please report your name.

I am Li Ran, the core of the Nuggets, how do you compare to the New Orleans 58?Take your life!
Then, Little Black Bean was chopped off by Li Ran's sword.

Wow, good sophomore.

But that's probably what it means. The little black bean who can't run has completely become a side effect on the court. His defensive ability is at the level of a black hole. His short height and thin body determine that no matter who the Nuggets face him, they can score like It's as simple as drinking water.

Artest is strong, but his main role is to defend the Nuggets' two perimeter cores. It is unrealistic to expect him to kill the game by scoring.

But in this game, O'Neal did not play. After the UAE was liberated, the outside defense line composed of Artest and Battier alone was a bit stretched.

At the end of the first quarter, the Nuggets led Mosaic by 23 points 30-7 at home.

In the second game, Yao Ming continued to sit on the sidelines, and Adelman was going to let him play again in the second half.

But George Karl sent O'Neill + Nene very unscrupulously. . .

The two were overwhelmed in the interior, and with Szczerbiak, Anthony and Billups, who had the strongest shooting ability, the Nuggets' offensive style changed again, from focusing on the perimeter to a classic inside-out tactic.

Adelman is going to scold her.

How many times have you changed your tactics in less than two games?

Still let people play?
He scratched his hair, which was not much in the first place, and was considering whether to send Yao Ming to the court in advance.

At this time, the Rockets' insiders are McDyess and Carl Landry, who are not opponents of O'Neal and Nene at all.

In the end, Adelman still reluctantly sent Yao Ming to the field in advance.
