Chapter 121 Offensive Showdown

In the evening game, the Knicks are facing a big enemy.

The record of the 76ers is still ahead of the Knicks, and from the book point of view, the 76ers have won all three matches so far this season. Of course, since Anthony was traded to New York, the two teams have not played against each other.

Anthony is very strong. Even Iguodala can't guarantee a complete blockade in one-on-one. The words that can be used are only limited, but the Knicks may not be very good, even if they have the league's individual points per game. No.3 and No.6 on the leaderboard.

Tang Wenlong is ranked eighth, and Derrick Rose's 25.1 points per game so far ranks ahead of him, a little lower than Stoudemire.

According to Mike D'Antoni's thinking, it's best to start with the 76ers on defense.

But the Knicks couldn't pull out to defend, and Chauncey Billups, who was packaged and traded with Cameron, could still defend well, but limited by his height and weight, he could only defend the point guard position.

Tang Wenlong was a standard forward and guard swingman, and he was the one with particularly accurate shots, Kidd couldn't even guard against him.

"No matter how hard you try, the Knicks will either play the Heat or the Bulls in the playoffs. Both teams are extremely difficult." Nocioni sighed.

The game was broadcast live on Imperial TV today. Anthony and Stoudemire are also very popular in China. In addition, the Knicks are also an offensive team. The ratings of this game are very objective.

Director Zhang Weiping praised Tang Wenlong when he opened his mouth: "Tang Wenlong's performance this season is amazing. He is now the ace player of the 76ers. Just like what he did in Xiyang City at that time, he is almost unstoppable."

Partner Yu Jia said: "At that time, he was selected as the second place. Everyone doubted whether this yellow-skinned oriental boy could adapt to the NBA, but after one season, he proved that he could gain a foothold and surpassed most talents. Distinctive black athletes are better."

Director Zhang said with a smile: "The Wizards missed Tang Wenlong. If the Wizards had selected Tang Wenlong, then Tang Wenlong would have been the second top pick in China."

Although the Wizards did not select Tang Wenlong, the performance of the **** this season is also enough to attract attention. In his debut season, he averaged 16.4 points and 8.3 assists per game. There are not many super point guards in history who can do it. Washington fans I believe that the champion they selected will have a bright future.

On the sidelines, the Knicks' five starters were ready.

Stoudemire, Sheldon Williams, Anthony, Landry Fields, Chauncey Billups.

The 76ers' starters also stood on the middle circle of the field, and Dalembert walked into the middle circle, ready to start jumping the ball.Starting lineup: Lowry, Tang Wenlong, Iguodala, Thaddeus Young, Dalembert.

Iguodala's scoring average this season has been less than 15 points, but his average assists per game is a career-high 6.3 times, and his average steals per game is also a career-high 2.2 times. He puts more focus on the court. In addition to defending and connecting the team's offense, his performance won praise from the American media.

Since Lowry was traded to the 76ers, his three-point shooting has changed from the weakness in the previous seasons of his career, and it is as high as 39%. Drama.

Dalembert wins the jump ball, and the Haitian can win 80.00% of the NBA interiors in this regard.

Lowry dribbles to the frontcourt, Dalembert picks and rolls and then rolls down. Lowry encounters a defensive screen and then passes the ball to Iguodala, who turns around from the wing. Iguodala dribbles and makes a jumper.

Encountered mild interference from Anthony, the basketball missed.

Anthony is new to the Knicks, and his defensive attitude is much better than when he was in the Nuggets. Before the ball like this, when Iguodala took off, he just stretched out his hand and made a gesture. Now it is at least [-] off the ground. The centimeter jump interfered.

Stoudemire clicked the ball, jumped up and grabbed the rebound, just now there was no card owner in the most favorable position.

The Knicks' offense is very interesting. The Pistons King Billups, who was known as the most grassroots MVP back then, is just doing the work of dribbling the ball across the half court. D'Antoni's tactics are completely initiated by Anthony alone, while other players are just Just leftovers and improvised roles.

Anthony caught the ball with his back and singled Iguodala, turned around and then took a tentative step to attack.

The duel between two old rivals is as familiar as lovers.

Anthony suddenly rose from the ground, and then chose this mid-range jumper in the horn area, and Iguodala stretched out his hand in coordination, and touched Anthony's fingertips only three centimeters away.

"Clang!" Anthony didn't enter either.

Iguodala turned back and stuck Anthony. This shot was very light. After hitting the front and rebounding, Iguodala just blocked the rebound in his arms.

Offensive and defensive rotation, Tang Wenlong received the ball at about 30 degrees, Fields defended Tang Wenlong, Tang Wenlong leaned back, turned left and made a fake move to the right, turned right and suddenly turned around, stepping on the floor with his right foot as the axis Float out on his back, in a picturesque posture.

Fields froze for a moment when Tang Wenlong made the first turnaround feint, and cooperated to add two points to the shot.

Director Zhang immediately shouted: "Tang Wenlong's shooting is really accurate. Look at the shooting posture, it really looks like Kobe."

Yu Jia immediately wiped off his sweat. Why does this uncle put Kobe on everything? He secretly glanced at the data and said, "Tang Wenlong gradually developed the ability to shoot the fadeaway at the end of this season. Facing the same rookie Fields, he played with ease."

The Knicks attacked, Billups and Stoudemire made a pick-and-roll, the latter went down after the pick-and-roll, Billups made an exquisite hit to the ground, and handed it to Stoudemire.

It's also the middle distance, and Thaddeus Young jumped out to defend after a delay.

After being disturbed for a while, Stoudemire's aim was a little bit off, and he swiped out of the basket.

Lowry just got the basketball and was ready to advance. Billups opened his hands to block it with experience. Although he is 35 years old and has entered the final stage of his career, he is very experienced in handling some small details.

The 76ers attacked, and Iguodala and Dalembert on the left side of the basketball court formed a double-screen off-ball screen formation.On Tang Wenlong's right side and Filders ran around twice, then plunged into the prepared formation, and with the help of cover, circled to the upper line to catch the ball.

Fields was blocked, and Anthony, who was defending Iguodala, took turns to defend Tang Wenlong.

Tang Wenlong received the ball and took a step with his right foot, which was unbelievably fast.

Before Anthony could react, Tang Wenlong was already parallel to him, and when he stretched out his hand again, he didn't even grab the corner of Tang Wenlong's clothes.

The entire Knicks' defense became fragmented. Tang Wenlong pointed the ball to the corner, and Thaddeus Young easily caught the ball and made a jumper for a three-pointer.

The reason why Thaddeus Young was able to lead Speights into the starting lineup relied on his extra three-point shooting ability, which was as high as 35% this season, which is very rare among inside players.

This shooting is like training, and raising your hand is a hollow ball.

5 to 0, the 76ers lead by 5 points.

Anthony was a little unhappy. Tang Wenlong, as his little junior, performed better than he did in the first season, especially the surname just now, which was so crisp and neat, which made him very embarrassed.

Once half court passed, he dropped to the low post and asked Billups for the ball.

Billups is also very bachelor. When he saw that Anthony wanted the ball, he passed it directly.Now this Knicks team, wanting to win the championship is a fantasy. The two big men of the team only know offense but not defense. Even if the two often work together to score 60 points every night, so what?
Anthony squeezed a little space from Iguodala, leaned back and hit a two-pointer.

As soon as he turned around, he let out a mouthful of air, not sure if it was a release.

For the 76ers, Lowry still controlled the ball. Tang Wenlong didn't get a chance after running. Iguodala got the ball as the second tactic starting point. After breaking through and tearing the Knicks' defense, he moved to the bottom corner again. This time it was on the left side, and it was Lowry who received the ball.

When Billups switched back to defense, Lowry had already shot.

The ball was still flying in the air, Director Zhang couldn't wait to yell, "Here's the ball!"

After receiving the bang, the basketball hit the rim and flew out, and bounced high, and jumped directly behind the backboard, directly awarding the ball to the Knicks.

"Cough cough~"

Yu Jia covered her face with one hand, fortunately she didn't switch to the studio
Director Zhang didn't change his face, and the topic changed quickly, "Although the goal was missed, the opportunity has come out. It is very reasonable for the 76ers to play this way, and if the Knicks still defend this way, I am afraid they will hang up today." "
