Super Role Player - v4 Chapter 53
On the field, the game continued, the 76ers attacked.
Pau Gasol took the ball from high position, An Xi circled from the sideline to the high position, hand-to-hand at the top of the arc, An Xi avoided Patrick Beverly’s entanglement and went inside.
As for the Rockets, Motai Yunas immediately changed defenses and kept up with Anxi. But at this time, Anxi had formed a situation in which small and big hits. Facing the defense of Motai Yunas, Anxi made a simple and easy change of direction and accelerated. Passed the Motel.
He rushed into the restricted area and dunked with a bang.
At 5:2, the 76ers fans at home cheered, but the Rockets did not pay too much attention to Anxi’s dunks. Instead, they served quickly in the backcourt. James Harden took the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt.
The core of the Rockets’ lineup is James Harden, the head coach is nothing but chicken soup coach Kevin McHale, and the general manager is Darryl Morey, who is often complained by domestic fans.
What many people don’t know is that Morey has a magic ball theory derived from the famous American reportage writer Michael Lewis. This theory involves all aspects of a sports team’s trading, management, and tactical play.
In terms of tactics, it is despising defense, completely ignoring mid-range shots, and focusing on three-pointers on the offensive end. Players are required to either end the offense close to the basket or end the offense by three-pointers. Therefore, the Rockets did not turn 76 People’s goals are in mind, and then focus on attacking with the ball.
James Harden rushed to the frontcourt and beat the 76ers for a time gap, and he directly scored a three-pointer.
Swish! Goal in!
The audience was quiet, James Harden turned around and started celebrating the three-pointer, holding it in one hand and sprinkling something like salt in the other.
Jack Lauder was very angry because he knew what Harden meant by this celebration. Harden said before reporters that the meaning of this celebration was: the opponent defending me is a rookie, and you need to cook him.
To put it in a plain and easy-to-understand way, it’s: Let’s defend me by another powerful one!
Anxi stood aside. He had to admit that on the offensive end, James Harden’s offensive talent is still very strong, with various European moves, three-pointers and weird fouls, and passing the ball very well. Perhaps at this stage, James Ha The only problem with Den is his defense.
Therefore, Anxi turned around and gave the ball to Jack Lauder on the offensive end, giving Jack Lauder a chance to play an answerball.
After more than half of the season’s improvement, Jack Lauder has also begun to have a few singles skills. Among them, the most powerful jump shot after a sudden stop is already considered to be a more accurate one. This ball is also used by Jack Lauder. With one move, after an emergency stop, James Harden was completely shaken away and the basketball bounced into the basket with a scream!
Goal in! Jack Lauder returned a goal, and he waved his long arm in excitement, and even the long tail behind his head was also shaken.
The 76ers fans at the scene screamed and cheered loudly. Fans wearing 76ers No. 99 jerseys kept showing their numbers on the sidelines.
Then, with the Rockets’ offense, Jack Lauder made a fierce defense against James Harden, but Harden rushed into the post and committed a foul.
Jack Lauder’s anger was not going well again, especially after Harden went to the free throw line and made two free throws.
But it is impossible for Anxi to continue to give the ball to Jack Lauder. He still has to guarantee his own scoring and offense. Therefore, in the next round, the 76ers attacked, Anxi once again took the ball in the high post.
Defending him is still Patrick Beverley, but Anxi didn’t even think about it, and started back-up singles again.
Beverly can’t stop this kind of power crushing, so the Rockets chose to double-team for the first time.
But it was impossible for An Xi to pass the ball anymore, so before Trevor Ariza arrived, An Xi turned over and shot a jumper. With a scream, the second two points were accounted for!
In the next few rounds, the two teams interacted with each other and there were several strikes. Anxi made various strong fights, but in the face of the Rockets’ tight defense, Anxi chose to pass more.
The Rockets’ tactics ignore defense, but they can’t stand them. They include Patrick Beverley, Trevor Ariza, and Dwight Howard. The benches Corey Brewer and Josh Smith are also strong in single defense. Relying on personal defense, the Rockets have done a good job of limiting Anxi.
Halfway through the first quarter, the two teams tied at 15:15. The score was still relatively high. Anxi scored 6 points and 3 assists. In other words, in the next three or four minutes, Anxi made only one shot and scored two points.
Therefore, An Xi played rather depressed. The Rockets defended him tightly, so An Xi had to choose defense more preferentially.
At this time, the game entered an official timeout, and Anxi started looking for a way to break through the Rockets’ defense off the court.
In fact, the method is very simple. Anxi can play off the ball again. This is a method that will always work, but this time, Anxi is not going to do it.
After leaving the field, Anxi began to apply to Brett Brown for unlimited fire rights.
At the beginning of last season, the condition for Anxi to join the 76ers was unlimited fire rights, but after a season of success, this condition was not fulfilled. Because of the final success, Anxi did not bother with this issue, but occasionally Anxi This right will also be claimed.
This time, Anxi made another request. Brett Brown hesitated for a while and nodded.
“No problem, but Ann, I hope you still focus on the playoffs this season.”
Anxi didn’t care, he just wanted to play a historical regular season.
And after getting the guarantee of unlimited fire rights, Anxi was able to brush indefinitely again.
The 76ers made a substitution, McAway played, the insider Paul Gasol was also replaced by Channing Frye, and on the Rockets side, Josh Smith, who refused the 76ers’ invitation, replaced Motel Yunus. The Rockets Also strengthened the team’s defense inside.
The battle between the two teams restarted after the timeout ended.
Anxi began to constantly attack from the middle distance. This position was abandoned by the Rockets’ magic ball theory. Of course, it was on the offensive end. The defensive end Rockets still deployed a tight defense in this position. It’s just that Anxi is now a strong offense. All kinds of strong play simply ignore the defensive strong play, so the Rockets’ tight defense becomes useless.
Anxi’s low back shot, back-turned jumper, opened the scoring.
Then he continued to play in the low post and scored 2 more points for a bottom line basket. His score in the first quarter was broken by 10 points.
At this time, the Rockets defending Anxi’s players also changed, from Patrick Beverley to Trevor Ariza, because it was obvious that Anxi began to stare at Beverly’s size gap and tonnage gap and kept hitting back. The defensive switch to Ariza is obviously a better choice.
Ariza’s defense is also very effective ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Then he defended Anxi’s turnaround jumper.
But then Anxi couldn’t prevent him from chasing three points.
In the end, after the first quarter, the 76ers led the Rockets by 2 points at 32:30.
Anxi scored 13 points in the first quarter, not high compared to the previous two games, but the strong attack in the second half of the first quarter still made many people see Anxi’s strong offensive desire.
In the second quarter, the two teams were on the bench. Anxi continued to play hard in the first quarter and consumed a lot of physical energy, so as soon as the second quarter came up, he took a rest off the court.
The 76ers had a point guard McAway, shooting guard James Anderson, small forward Evan Turner, power forward Pau Gasol and center Cole Aldridge.
But such a lineup was quickly destroyed by the Rockets’ bench. The 76ers were hit by a 7-0 offensive climax by the Rockets, and the Rockets overtook the score in one fell swoop.
However, Brett Brown was not eager to replace Anxi, but insisted until the sixth minute of the second quarter. After the Rockets’ lead reached 9 points, he called a timeout and prepared to replace Anxi.
