runaway point guard

Chapter 335 Scoring frenzy
At the beginning of the game between the Hornets and the 76ers, the number of people who supported the Hornets far exceeded the 76ers.

But the number of people who believe that the Hornets can beat the 76ers is very small, much less than those who believe in the 76ers.

But after halftime, the number immediately skyrocketed, even twice as many as the 76ers.

Especially at the beginning of the second half, after the Hornets played a 5-0 attack wave and directly led their opponents by 8 points, this number was even greater.

In this game, the Hornets used an incredible tactic and achieved an incredible result.

比赛开始5分钟之后，比分是60-50，黄蜂队整整领先了76人10分之多！领先分数突破了两位数。

Such a difference in points really shattered the eyes of many people.

"Today's game, the tickets are really worth it!" During the timeout, similar comments rang out: "I really didn't expect the Hornets to play so wonderfully... I should say I didn't expect Zhong Yu to play so wonderfully .”

"Yes, today Zhong Yu is basically the only one scoring...Look at his current technical statistics, how many points?"

"40 points!"

"This is just the third quarter...he has already scored 40 points..."

"This is also the reason why the game has turned into the current result... The 76ers can't defend Zhong Yu. As long as the Hornets strengthen their defense and lock the 76ers, they will have nothing to do!"

…………

Indeed, apart from Zhong Yu, the first thing the Hornets need to do today is to defend their opponents well, and don't let the 76ers always score easily.

The second thing is to create opportunities for Zhong Yu's shots, grab rebounds for him, and give him pick-and-rolls.

They accomplished these two things very well, and Zhong Yu's touch also exploded crazily today, which helped the Hornets.

The 76ers' bench was not very harmonious.

Dilio is simply furious!He didn't expect the 76ers to give him such an answer.

"Guys! Look at what you have done! What kind of defense is this? Made of paper? Look at Zhong Yu on your heads, what did he do? He didn't play three quarters, Just scored 40 points!"

Hearing this number, everyone is still a little ashamed.

At the same time, he was also secretly lamenting Zhong Yu's abnormality - he scored less than 40 points in three quarters... Is he planning to score another 81 points for the league?

But in that case, the 76ers would be the background of Zhong Yu's high score and be nailed to the pillar of shame.

"The next thing you have to do is to try your best to fend off those nasty Hornets players, don't pay attention to their pick-and-rolls, our purpose is to lock Zhong Yu completely... don't let him catch the ball, don't let him He drives after the catch, don't let him shoot! Got it?"

Dilio said this with a gloomy face.

The players of the 76ers just hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Indeed, the game has come to this point, and they have to make some serious predictions.

The game restarts.

It was difficult for Zhong Yu to receive the pass, and Iguodala really adopted a candy-style defense against him, regardless of his own physical exertion and other things.

As soon as Zhong Yu moved, he followed up from behind, waving his arms to prevent Zhong Yu from catching the ball.

"Come by yourself!" Zhong Yu shouted to the hesitant Paco, who nodded and broke through the inside line directly.

Zhong Yu thought about it for a while and cut from the left. Now the 76ers are in a bit of a dilemma. They don't know whether they need to continue to pay close attention to Zhong Yu.

Paco seized the opportunity and made a mid-range shot, and there it is!

62-50, the Hornets lead by 12 points.

"Perfect! That's it!" Scott clenched his fist and shouted.

Zhong Yu's ball was indeed very beautiful.

Originally, he gave Zhong Yu the unlimited right to fire and let him shoot recklessly. The purpose was to liberate Zhong Yu's scoring ability. Of course, the ultimate goal was for the Hornets to win.

But when faced with an opponent desperate to defend Zhong Yu, it would not be good if he still insisted on fighting.

Zhong Yu can adapt to the situation like this, which is of great help to the Hornets.

…………

The 76ers did not play well next.

Of course, their hit rate has also increased since then.Only on the Hornets side... The 76ers have strictly implemented the tactics of blocking Zhong Yu, but they can still score.

In the 7th minute, Zhong Yu was still watched dead. Paco passed the basketball to Peja. Zhong Yu walked around him and ran to the basket. The 76ers' defensive attention was focused on chasing Zhong Yu run.

As a result, Peja got an easy shot, took a step sideways, and hit a three-pointer.

In the 8th minute, Zhong Yu used a similar method to make the illusion that he wanted to play by himself. In fact, the ball was passed to Thomas on the inside, and Thomas made a layup...

Of course, the Hornets' success rate is not 100%, but with this method, they have always maintained the score difference at a certain number.

Dirio was also very anxious, but he couldn't come up with a better way.

Fortunately, the 76ers also recovered some points in such a slow struggle.

In this way, the third quarter ended, and the final score of the two sides was 72-65. The Hornets led their opponents by 7 points and entered the final quarter.After Zhong Yu encountered strict defense, it was not so easy to force a score. After all, basketball is a sport of five people, and one person cannot beat five people.

So far, Zhong Yu scored a total of 45 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, 45 points in three quarters, Zhong Yu's scoring is very crazy.

At the end of this section of the game, the 76ers are completely confused about the future of the game...

Sure enough, the phrase "with Zhong Yu here, the Hornets will not be a weak team" seems to have some truth... With such a super scorer watching, it is impossible for the Hornets to be slaughtered lamb.

Just because Zhong Yu may be the greatest scorer in NBA history.

…………

Up to now, the 76ers really feel that the situation is very difficult, and they don't know how to solve Zhong Yu's problem.

After thinking about it, Dirio could only re-adopt the mixed defense of man-to-man and zone defense.

The main purpose is to deal with Zhong Yu, but it also cannot allow him to give teammates scoring opportunities by attracting double-teams.

The Hornets' audience was filled with morale. The audience who had come here with the attitude of watching Zhong Yu had already changed their minds.

They became eager to win again, and hoped that Zhong Yu could lead the Hornets to another victory.

"Zhong Yu! MVP!"

"Zhong Yu! MVP!"

The cheers like a wave surged wildly in the basketball hall, and finally roared gradually amidst the crazy reverberation.

Zhong Yu's prestige has almost reached its peak in New Orleans!No one is not excited and proud of him, all the fans have left a place for Zhong Yu among the superstars in their hearts.

In the last quarter of the game against the 76ers, they chose to trust Zhong Yu without reservation.

The first ball, for the 76ers.

The Hornets' defense is adept.

The current lineup of the Hornets is-point guard Paco, shooting guard Zhong Yu, small forward Trevor Ariza, power forward Evans, and center Armstrong.

With this lineup, it can be said that every position has a little defensive ability, especially the defensive ability from the front line to the inside line is very strong.

Zhong Yu's current defensive ability has surpassed the average level, and when he wants to completely defend a person, he can also explode with great combat power.

The Hornets are now adopting a defensive tactic of shrinking the defense, driving the 76ers mainly to the outside.

Because the 76ers' outside shooting percentage in this game is really not high.

On the first ball, Iguodala missed a jumper. The rebound was snatched by the 76ers and passed to Miller. After the old Miller broke through, he was locked and passed to Iguodala again. I voted for it.

The ball goes back to the Hornets.

Zhong Yu took a look outside and knew that the 76ers' defensive tactics had changed again.

He was able to score with impunity again!Thinking of going back to his own game again, the crazy blood in his bones burned hotly again.

Then, Zhong Yu asked Paco to pass the ball.

Iguodala is still defending Zhong Yu to death, and he doesn't want Zhong Yu to catch the ball, but Zhong Yu has many ways to get rid of him.Just as Zhong Yu received the pass, Iguodala forced him up again.

"Reggie!" Zhong Yu called out, and Evans immediately came up to pick and roll him. At that moment, Zhong Yu changed hands and forcibly accelerated. Iguodala and Zhong Yu opened the distance and wanted to catch up again. He's having a hard time.

However, people like Dalem stick to the center line tacitly, and Zhong Yu doesn't force it. He has already shot a jumper as soon as he came near the free throw line!
"Shua!" After the basketball flew along a high arc for a long time, it plunged into the net flowers!
Two-pointer hit!Zhong Yu scored another two points.

The opponent's deadly defense did not allow Zhong Yu to enter the center line.

After all, in this quarter, he feels that he can score points arbitrarily, but also needs to carefully calculate his physical strength.

He has played nearly 30 minutes so far, and it is better to keep his physical strength as much as possible.

"The 76ers are finished!" A well-known basketball commentator came to this conclusion after only watching the beginning of the fourth quarter!
Sure enough, in the following time, the 76ers once again found that there was no way to stop Zhong Yu.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Zhong Yu scored 6 points in a row and hit 5 of 76 jump shots. While the [-]ers had a good touch, they still failed to catch up with the score.

In the middle of the fourth quarter, the 76ers stepped up their offense, several players scored in turn, and Iguodala dunked one across Armstrong.

The score caught up to 85-80, and the Hornets only had a 5-point lead.

The ball returned to Zhong Yu's hands. Now, Zhong Yu controlled the ball and stood on the outside line, and did not feel too much pressure because the score gap was narrowed.

"Zhong Yu! MVP!"

"MVP!"

The sound of cheering continued to spread in the arena. Zhong Yu forced it to start in an instant and rushed to the inside. The place near the free throw line faced Iguodala and Dalem and jumped up directly. frame!

The hands of the two accidentally touched Zhong Yu's, so they sent him to the free throw line!

Zhong Yu made an extra penalty and scored three points, bringing the gap to eight points again.
