I really can't handle the ball

228 Chapter 2 The Battle of Cows and Horses ([-])

Chapter 228 The Battle of the Bulls and Horses ([-])

On the court, Tony Parker stood under the basket sluggishly, not yet recovered.

Deng Dadai walked forward quickly, touched Parker's head, and comforted him: "Don't take it to heart, there are too many players dunked by Li Ge, and you are not bad."

Parker was a little heartbroken when he heard Duncan's words.

Brother, are you comforting me, or are you hitting me?

"Thank you very much Tim, I'm fine now."

After Parker finished speaking, he immediately ran to the bottom line to catch the ball, worried that if he ran too late, Deng Dada would hit his weak heart again.

After this episode, the game continued.

Parker dribbled forward, came beyond the three-point line, and passed the ball directly to Duncan in the high post on the right.

Although the mentality has adjusted, it still needs to slow down.

After all, it is an individual who has experienced fluctuations in his mentality after being hit by a big hat and a dunk from another person.

Duncan received the pass and singled Nowitzki face-to-face.

"Hey! Dirk, your little brother bullied my little brother. As a big brother, you must find a place for your little brother and be prepared to die."

Deng Daidai issued a "death announcement" with the "old driver".

"Tim, if you keep talking nonsense, my helper will arrive and kill you." Nowitzki "kindly" reminded.

Deng looked around blankly, saw Li Xuan approaching him, and immediately broke through with the ball.

Nowitzki slides laterally and blocks Duncan's path.

Without any accident, the two collided together and had a fierce physical confrontation.

Duncan's core strength is obviously stronger than that of Nowitzki, and the "driver" suffered consecutive defeats.

When Deng Daidai carried the old driver to the penalty area, he immediately raised the basketball and prepared to attack the frame.

At this time, Li Xuan quickly rushed to the basket, predicted Duncan's shot, and was ready to block the shot.

"The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind, Deng will die in a daze!"

Clap!

After Duncan carried Nowitzki away, he threw the ball to the backboard, ready to make a layup, but he didn't expect that Li Xuan slapped him out of the baseline.

"Beautiful blocking! Xiao Li's return to defense was very timely, and his timing was very good." Director Zhang praised.

On the sidelines, Popovich was stunned when he saw the scene on the court. He didn't believe that Duncan would make such a low-level mistake.

It is understandable that Parker was blocked, but is it really reasonable for the seasoned Duncan to be blocked by a rookie? !

Popovich doubts very much whether Deng Daidai played the game seriously.

Immediately, he yelled loudly toward the field: "Everyone cheer up and adopt No. 2 defensive tactics!"

The Spurs players on the court nodded, expressing their understanding.

The Spurs sent the baseline ball, and Duncan, who was low on the right, received the pass and made a signature 45° hit on the board.

8: 6!

The ball is switched and the Mavericks attack.

Nash dribbled the ball to the outside of the three-point line, beckoned, and signaled his teammates to step forward and cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

Li Xuan ran forward and made a pick-and-roll for Nash, blocked Parker and quickly cut to the penalty area.

At this time, Huo Li was in a difficult situation and didn't know which one to follow.

Gritting his teeth, he ran towards the basket and chose to chase Li Xuan.

Seeing that there was no defender in front of him, Nash was overjoyed, stopped and jumped, and hit a mid-range jumper.

10: 6!

Looking back, the Spurs fought back.

Parker dribbled forward, and just after halftime waved for Duncan to come out and cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

Without any hesitation, Deng Daidai immediately ran forward and made an off-ball screen.

If it is replaced by other star players, it will definitely not be so skillful.

After all, there are very few team bosses who are willing to be green leaves for their younger brothers.

With the help of a screen, Parker passed Nash's defense in one step and broke through to the basket.

Nowitzki immediately switched defenses, delaying Parker's breakthrough.

Parker did not continue to break through to the basket and returned the ball to Duncan immediately.

Deng Daidai, who was near the free throw line, received the pass, faced Nash's dispensable defense, and directly made a mid-range jumper, completely ignoring Lao Na's interference.

Nash has nothing to do. In the NBA, anyone can displace him and single him.

The basketball rebounds into the basket after being hit.

10: 8!

Nash raised his hand, signaling that it was his fault.

He felt that the Spurs would target him like this in the future, and he couldn't help but feel a little headache.

Li Xuan saw Nash's embarrassment, ran up and patted him on the shoulder, and offered his suggestion.

"Next time you can go around the cover and chase defense in advance, and I will return to the penalty area in time to assist in the defense."

"If there is a dislocation, then don't fight it with Deng Dadai. You can't carry it if you want to. You can focus on Parker's passing route."

"As long as Deng Daidai can't receive the pass after the pick-and-roll, the defense will basically be considered a success."

After hearing this, Nash nodded and approved of Li Xuan's suggestion, and then cheered up and went to the baseline to catch the ball.

The Mavericks attacked, and Li Xuan continued to step forward to cooperate with Nash in the pick-and-roll.

This time, after Li Xuan blocked Parker, he didn't make an air cut to the basket. He had already seen Deng Daidai ready to go back to the basket.

Nash encountered a change of defense and immediately passed the ball back.

Li Xuan received the pass and raised his hand to shoot.

Parker immediately stepped forward to defend himself, not giving Li Xuan a chance to jump.

"Tony, let you feel Steve's powerlessness in the face of Tim."

Li Xuan not only wants to find a place for Nash, but also wants to influence Parker's mentality.

After knocking Parker away with all his strength, Li Xuan pulled it up, triggered the [Offensive Kaleidoscope] effect, and threw the ball.

Perhaps affected by Li Xuan's words, Parker couldn't stop him when he jumped up to interfere, and directly hit Li Xuan who hadn't landed yet.

Swish!Hollow into the net!

At the same time, the piercing whistle sounded.

"Beep! The Spurs' No. 9 defensive foul, the goal is effectively an additional penalty." The referee blew his whistle and gestured to the technical table.

Deafening cheers and shouts erupted from the auditorium, and the enthusiastic atmosphere reached its peak.

"Good shot! Li Xuan scored three plus one. Tonight he feels hot. If he makes a free throw, he will score in double figures." Director Xu commented.

On the field, Li Xuan was pulled up from the floor by Nowitzki.

"Great job, Lee!"

"It's all thanks to everyone. Thanks to your help, I can play so easily."

Li Xuan was right, if it wasn't for Nowitzki and others to contain the Spurs' defense, he wouldn't have scored so easily.

Immediately, Li Xuan and Nowitzki celebrated by high-fiving.

Not far away, Duncan also pulled up Parker who had fallen to the ground.

"Don't take it to heart, you have tried your best, that guy is indeed very difficult to guard against, we will find a way to deal with him." Duncan patted Parker's head and comforted him.

Parker, who was still moved for a while, looked up and saw Duncan's enjoyment, and his heart was filled.

He felt that Duncan didn't come to comfort him, but more like he came to touch his head.

The game continued, Li Xuan stood on the free throw line amidst the cheers of the fans, received the referee's pass, and made a steady extra penalty.

The ball is switched and the Spurs attack.

The "French Little Sports Car" repeated the same trick, and completed the pick-and-roll cooperation with Deng Daidai.

This time, Nowitzki quickly switched defenses and blocked Parker's breakthrough route, and Nash cut off the passing route behind Parker, not giving the "French Little Sports Car" a chance to pass back.

Seeing that the passing route was blocked, Parker didn't dare to pass the ball back rashly, and took possession of the ball to circle within the three-second zone.

Seeing that Li Xuan retreated to the basket, he was a little apprehensive, and he had no chance to attack the frame, so he passed the ball to Horry, who was in the high position on the left.

After receiving the pass, Horry immediately took off and shot.

At this moment, Lagabel, who was supplementing the defense, rushed over and rushed to seriously interfere with the shot.

Horry was disturbed and his shooting posture was a little deformed. He couldn't pass the ball out in the air, so he could only bite the bullet and shoot it, and at the same time cursed inwardly.

"Fuck! When did the Mavs play so well on defense?"

Bang bang!Fight with anger!

Li Xuan protected the backcourt rebound, found Nash immediately and passed the ball.

Nash received the pass, quickly dribbled forward, and launched a defensive counterattack.

At this time, Parker was not by Lao Na's side and could not stop the Mavericks from fast break.

The Spurs players retreated quickly and followed their defenders closely.

Li Xuan quickly cut to the basket, attracting most of the Spurs' defensive attention.

At the same time, Nash dribbled the ball to the outside of the three-point line, faked a fax shot to deceive Turkoglu, who wanted to step forward to defend, and immediately took off to shoot.

The basketball draws a perfect arc in the air.

Swish!Hollow into the net!

17: 8!

On the sidelines, Spurs coach Popovich frowned and immediately asked for a timeout, interrupting the Mavericks' offensive momentum and recalling players for redeployment.

During the timeout, Barkley and Kenny Smith analyzed the situation on the field in the on-site commentary.

"Judging from the first few minutes, the Mavericks took the initiative and suppressed the Spurs. This is completely different from what was expected before the game."

Kenny Smith spoke his mind.

He thought this game would be very anxious, but he didn't want the Mavericks to quickly widen the point difference.

"Hahaha, the main reason is that the Spurs didn't expect Lee to break out so early. They didn't want to guard Lee, and the game couldn't be played at the last moment." Barkley expressed his opinion with a smile.

"The Spurs are the defending champions anyway, and they shouldn't be easily defeated. Next, let's see how the Spurs will make adjustments to compete with the Mavericks." Kenny Smith finished speaking and turned his attention to the game on the field.

On the Spurs bench, Popovich seized the time to arrange tactics.

"We have to limit the No. 10 of the Mavericks, and we can no longer let him score easily."

"Bruce, this task is entrusted to you. You can't let him receive the pass easily from the outside."

Bowen nodded, patted his chest and assured: "Boss, don't worry, I will complete the task."

Popovich showed a relieved smile, and Bowen was still reliable at critical moments.

"If that rookie plays hard inside, Tim, you have to retreat to the basket in time to help defend." Popovich said to Duncan.

Deng Dudai nodded expressionlessly, expressing his understanding.

Seeing Duncan's statement, Popovich felt relieved and quickly assigned tasks to other players.

On the other side, the Mavericks are on the bench.

Old Nelson is also arranging tactics for the players.

"Next, Li will definitely be targeted for defense, so Dirk will be the core of the offense, and other players will make decisive shots when they have the opportunity."

The Mavericks players nodded and had no opinion.

Immediately, Old Nelson assigned tasks to the players respectively.

The timeout ends and the game continues.

The Spurs made personnel adjustments, replacing Horry and replacing Ginobili.

The Mavericks replaced Finley with Uncle Mu.

Parker took the serve from the baseline, dribbled forward in a leisurely manner, and came to the top of the arc to organize an attack.

Duncan ran to the low post on the right and asked for the ball against Uncle Mu.

Uncle Mu tried his best to resist Duncan and stretched his arms to interfere, preventing Deng Dadai from catching the ball easily.

He came to the field with only one task, which was to consume Duncan's physical strength.

At the same time, Li Xuan also came to the edge of the penalty area, ready to assist in double-teaming.

Parker watched his teammate's position and didn't pass the ball to Bowen who was open.

He believes that as long as he passes the ball, Li Xuan will definitely rush back to defend, so it is meaningless to do so.

Seeing that Duncan was about to be in place, he immediately passed the ball.

As soon as Deng Daidai received the pass, he was double-teamed by Li Xuan and Uncle Mu. He didn't choose to play hard and passed the ball.

At this time, Ginobili cut from the center to the basket, received a pass, made a fake move, and wanted to shake away Lagabel who was chasing behind him, and then made a time difference.

But what Ginobili didn't expect was that Lagabel didn't hesitate and stuck behind him to block the shooting space.

"Fuck! Why are the Mavericks' players so experienced?"

It will take three seconds to attack if you don't make a shot. Ginobili can only grit his teeth, push Lagabel away with his butt, and throw the ball out.

Clap!

Li Xuan, who arrived at the basket at some point, jumped up and slapped the rising basketball out of the baseline.

"Fuck! When did this guy show up behind me?"

Ginobili was stunned for a while, but he didn't notice when Li Xuan returned to the basket.

Li Xuan didn't pay attention to the expression of "Demon Sword", and clapped Lagabel's hands to celebrate the successful defense.

The Spurs sent the baseline ball, and Duncan received the pass. Seeing that the attack time was running out, he did not rush to make a shot. Even if the offense violated the 24-second rule, he could not play indiscriminately, giving the Mavericks a chance to launch a fast break.

When the harsh beep sounded, Duncan didn't find a chance to make a shot and was blocked for 24 seconds.

"The Mavericks defended very well and caused the Spurs to violate the offense. The team's defense was very successful this time." Director Zhang commented.

The ball is switched and the Mavericks attack.

Nash dribbled forward and came to the top of the arc to organize the offense.

Nowitzki immediately ran to the high position on the right and reached for the ball.

Turkoglu quickly followed, and at the same time signaled his teammates to come to help defend. He can't handle the "German tank" alone.

Nash, who was in possession of the ball at the top of the arc, immediately passed the ball.

Although Parker's close defense caused him a little trouble, it was not a big problem.

Nowitzki received the pass and saw that the Spurs were not double-teaming, so he immediately turned around and played Turkoglu face-to-face.

After he made a three-threat shaking Turkoglu, he quickly launched a drive towards the basket.

Turkoglu, whose center of gravity was shaken, failed to keep up with Nowitzki, falling behind by half a body.

Seeing this, Deng, who was near the restricted area, immediately stepped forward and blocked Nowitzki's advancing route.

Seeing this situation, the "old driver" chose to pass the ball instead of making a strong attack.

He wants to get the ball to the basket, but worries about being intercepted.

At this moment, Nowitzki saw Li Xuan running near the free throw line and immediately passed the ball.

As soon as Li Xuan received the pass, Bowen, who was chasing behind him, immediately stuck up and forced Lai Lai to spout trash.

"Little ghost, you can't escape my palm, give up the idea of ​​scoring as soon as possible."

Li Xuan responded tit for tat: "I'm not your kind of dog brain, don't think I'm stupid if I have an assist!"

Immediately, Li Xuan smashed the ball to the basket.

The whole process was very short, so Duncan, who went to make up defense, had no time to return to the basket.

The unguarded Uncle Mu received the pass, rose from the ground, and dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.

"Good shot! The Mavericks played a smooth offense. It seems that the Spurs' adjustments have not had an effect. It seems that Popovich is not as old as Nelson!" Barkley joked.
