Start without the ball

Chapter 245 Cannibalization
Li Haoyu used his superb low footwork to score 2 points, rewriting the score to 14-7.

The Blazers attacked, Lillard advanced with the ball, came to the top of the arc, and once again called the toolman Kanter to come up to cover.

Adams looked at the bench, Donovan didn't gesture to signal him to guard the inside, so he had to go up with the Blazers center.

When his teammates covered Westbrook, Lillard rushed inside with all his strength.

When Neptune switched defenses, he had to say something to MMP. He is a center forward, a real man who wants to fight in the paint from fist to flesh, but now he has to compete with a guard who is only 1 meters tall. This makes him unacceptable. .

Grant saw that Neptune's defense was extremely difficult and moved to the inside early. Lillard entered the inside to attract the Thunder's two inside defenses, and passed the ball to Aminu in the left corner. The latter easily scored 2 points.

16 to 7.
O'Neal: "Times have really changed. Adams, a center with a good low-post touch, was quite popular back then, but now he has become the team's shortcoming, allowing Lillard to grab and beat."

Barkley: "The current center must have a certain small defensive ability. If the team wants to go further in the playoffs, it should at least prepare one such insider. However, whether it is Adams or Noai in the Thunder team All the speed is not enough to match Lillard's driving speed."

The Thunder attacked, and when Westbrook dribbled the ball forward, Li Haoyu ran to his side, whispered a few words, and Guigui nodded slightly.

Now that the Blazers grabbed Aquaman and beat him up, Westbrook decided to fight back, dribbled the ball to the left 45 degrees, cleared the low post, and directed Li Haoyu to fall over.

McCollum, right?Double guns in the backcourt, right?It's fast, isn't it?
Laozi is playing you as a small guard, Li Qiangli Insider Haoyu easily receives the ball one step outside the three-second zone.

Sensing the defense from the back, Li Haoyu began to fight, and McCollum retreated again and again.

Lillard on the flank knew something was wrong. In the previous round of offense, Li Haoyu's low-post skills were definitely not something McCollum could handle.

After thinking about it, Lillard let go of Guigui, don't ask why, Guigui understands everything.

When Lillard was caught in the low position, Westbrook did not wait for the ball in place, and after kicking the ground hard, he cut to the inside!
Those who are close to space cut!When running to the frontcourt, Li Haoyu had a premonition that he was about to be double-teamed, so he reminded Tie Gui that if Lillard double-teams, he should not sit on the three-point line, cut!Fuck it!

The unstoppable Westbrook burst out with terrifying speed, like a blue lightning that directly hit the inside line, received a pass from Li Haoyu and kicked off the ground, his tomahawk slashing with great force.

boom!
After landing, Westbrook looked up to the sky and roared, venting the anger in his heart to his heart's content.

Tengxing commentary seat.

Ke Fan: "Westbrook cut the ball just right! When Lillard double-teamed to the low post, Kanter was on the other side of the three-second zone. After Westbrook started to speed up, it was too late for Kanter to return to the basket to defend. "

Yang Yi: "There is no doubt about Westbrook's physical talent. As long as he has such an excellent opportunity, he will never let us down. His dunks and roars are all too passionate."

Barrage.

"One thing to say, Westbrook's instruction manual is still in the hands of Brother Yuzi."

"After Yuzi handled the ball, the Thunder's offense is indeed better, but the defensive problem is still unresolved. Lillard is almost superb."

"Did you see McCollum's resentful eyes? He was clearly arranged by Brother Yuzi in the low position."

"Where there is gain, there must be loss. The Trail Blazers Gemini has a strong perimeter offensive firepower, but there will definitely be sacrifices on defense."

16 to 9, Li Haoyu and Westbrook clapped to signal to run to the backcourt.

After thinking hard, Donovan gestured to Adams, signaling him to guard the inside line and not go forward with Kanter.

Neptune nodded slightly to express understanding, McCollum advanced with the ball, came to the top of the arc and continued to greet the tool man Kanter.

The moment Li Haoyu was blocked, he turned around and bypassed the screen, but McCollum was too fast. When he turned around, the Blazers had already come to the free throw line to shoot.

boom!
Fortunately, the ball hit the iron, Adams firmly stuck Kanter in the inside, and Westbrook rushed to the basket to get the first rebound of the day.

Ke Fan: "It seems that Adams doesn't need to go out, you see, this pick-and-roll seems to have been defended!"

Yang Yi: "Wake up, it's not a successful defense. It's McCollum himself who hit the iron. He already has an absolute chance, but he just didn't grasp it."

The Thunder attack, sometimes low and sometimes cool, always low and always cool, Westbrook once again directed Li Haoyu to fall low.

WDNMD!

Are you a defender?Not a center forward!

McCollum was desperate. He hadn't seen a post-up guard like this since Kobe Bryant, and he was so precise with his feet.

In desperation, McCollum chose not to let Li Haoyu catch the ball, but he ignored a problem——Li Haoyu's super running ability!

Li Haoyu, who couldn't catch the ball, withdrew from the bottom line, and McCollum's hanging heart was relieved, and finally he no longer had to be ravaged by the low post.

Beyond the baseline, Li Haoyu walked slowly towards the basket as if the world on the field had nothing to do with him.

In an instant, Li Haoyu moved!

He rushed to the right corner with all his strength, and McCollum wanted to chase, but crashed into Adams' arms in the three-second zone, and Kanter had no time to attack.

At 45 degrees to the right, George turned the ball to the baseline. Seeing that his teammates could not attack in time, Harkless immediately released George to defend the bottom corner.

When Li Haoyu saw Harkless pounced, he took his time and shifted the ball to 45 degrees. With George unguarded, he shot a three-pointer.

shuh~
The red light was on when the goal was scored. The Thunder were very patient in this attack and finally found an excellent opportunity to attack!
16 to 12, the Thunder are only 4 points away!

George hit a three-pointer, the Pisacek Energy Center was boiling, cheering for the home team constantly, the Thunder started, and the Blazers coach Terry Stotts called a timeout with a sad face.

Barkley: "Since the Thunder's ball handler patiently waited for Li Haoyu to find an opportunity, the offense immediately improved. His organizational skills are too strong, and both Westbrook and George have played."

O'Neal: "He's making his teammates better. I've never seen a guy with so little time on the ball who can organize an offense. He's really a clean stream in the league."

Tengxing commentary seat.

Ke Fan: "Brother Yuzi scored 4 points and 5 assists in just 2 rounds. The Thunder's offense has improved!"

Yang Yi: "However, the Thunder's defensive problem has not been resolved. They still can't handle the pick-and-roll of the Blazers guard."

Ke Fan: "Teacher Yang Yi, chasing points is not only a way of iron and blood defense, but also relying on better offense to get more points, so as to catch up with the point difference.

Although it is not as immediate as the iron and blood defense, but you can see that the Thunder has been eating away at the point difference in these few rounds. "

Yang Yi: "When Li Haoyu is off the court, can the Thunder play a better offense?"

Ke Fan: "Oops, I forgot about this!"
