Chapter 438: Howard the Tank Top
In the evening, before the start of the game, the two sides started the announcement.
Suns: Lee Ba, Marion, Battier, Posey, Marbury.
Mosaic: Min Yao, Juwan Howard, McGrady, David Wesley, Bob Sura.
The reason why the Suns went to Posey is because Wesley's offense is still good, especially with a three-pointer.
The game was broadcast live on CCTV.
At this time, Yu Jia explained: "Posey's scoring ability is still weaker than that of Joe Johnson. This starting lineup intends to suppress Mosaic's scoring as much as possible on the defensive end."
"This starting lineup, in my opinion, is actually the best starting lineup for the Suns, because the offense and defense are very balanced. Although Marbury is a bit leaky here, but with Posey and Battier on both sides of the defense, the loopholes are not big. On the offensive end, he can also score, and his scoring ability is only slightly worse than that of Joe Johnson on the court."
Zhang Reasonable said.
At the entrance of the passage, the two first met.
"Tracy, don't come in tonight, you will get hurt." Seeing McGrady, Li Ba went over to punch him and said.
"That's not good."
McGrady said seriously, his eyelids opened.
At this moment, the eyes are very sharp.
"Let's talk about it first, Hammer, be careful when you block the shot. You grab the cap and he'll get it. Don't get it on the floor. He has a back injury and can't stand it. We still want to go to the second round."
Dayao next to him yelled quickly, speaking in Mandarin.
"Depend on my mood."
Li Ba laughed in Mandarin.
"What did you two say?" Marbury was dissatisfied and muttered.
"Stephen, if you are asked to learn Chinese, you will complain that your head hurts. We will not be able to play in the NBA in the future, and we can still go to the CBA to dominate." Li Ba said.
"Chinese is difficult."
Shaking his head, Marbury said with a headache.
Twenty minutes later, the game started.
Li Ba and Dayao jumped the ball and touched the ball first with top bounce speed, and the Suns attacked.
After landing, Li Ba immediately bypassed Dayao and rushed to the frontcourt.
"Stop him."
Dayao grabbed a handful and shouted at his teammates.
But no one knew what he was shouting. He was shouting in Shanghai dialect?
Uncle Howard, the power forward, moved a little slowly, and when he took a step sideways, Li Ba had already rushed past.
McGrady defended against Li Ba, but how dare he block him? They could only entangle, while running to the paint area.
But in the end, Li Ba did not reach the basket smoothly. Mickey Mouse David Wesley had a good defensive attitude and cut off his way first.
The sun failed to make a fast break and began to fight positional warfare.
Li Ba made a circle around the low position on the left wing, and when Dayao just followed him, he suddenly rushed to the basket.
Dayao had a headache, struggled, and couldn't keep up.
"Co-defense! Co-defense!"
Little Van Gundy roared loudly from the sidelines.
Howard hadn't left the paint just yet, and turned his head immediately.
Also at this time, Marbury threw the ball in.
Howard stepped into a reasonable collision zone and reached under the basket.
At this time, Li Ba jumped up outside the reasonable collision zone, grabbed the ball with his right hand and grabbed the ball.
At this time, Howard took off vigorously.
But just as he exerted his strength, Li Ba's right hand in mid-air pressed his shoulder, pinning him to the floor directly, and he couldn't jump up.
At this time, Li Ba smashed down with the ball.
"boom!"
One-arm heavy dunk, the basket trembled violently.
"Beep!"
Uncle Huo blocked the foul and added a free throw.
"Yeah! In the opening two plus one, the hammer pressed the button of the show moment." The Suns commentator began to roar loudly.
"The ball was played beautifully. Through continuous running, he got rid of Dayao, and then got an offensive opportunity." Zhang Lili shouted.
"My mine."
Howard of the Dayao top tank shouted.
"Yao, follow closely."
Howard was dunked one at the beginning, and his face was a little dark.
"Tie Hammer, don't slap me, you'll turn your face." Nodding at Howard, Dayao turned around and told Li Ba.
"It depends on your mood." Li Ba said with a chuckle.
"Damn it, just pull it down if you dare to buckle it." Dayao scolded.
At the free throw line, Li Ba began to aim at the basket.
Dayao stood on the left with a sneer on his face.
"Laugh at you, I still don't believe it!"
Being underestimated by Dayao, Li Ba was a little annoyed and hit the basket with too much force.
"Snapped!"
Dayao grabbed the rebound and the Suns quickly returned to defense.
Arriving at the frontcourt, Dayao kept his word, and he really fell low.
"This kid won't be impulsive, right? Hitting the hammer in a low position is very disadvantageous." Yao's father said to Yao's mother in the audience.
"Probably not, maybe try playing two first." Yao Ma said.
On the left-wing three-point line, McGrady asked for the ball from Sura and passed it in.
"Boom!"
After catching the ball, Dayao arched.
"Um, not moving? Damn, the animal."
Cursing secretly in his heart, he felt that the hammer behind him didn't hit him very much, so he immediately turned around and shot a jumper backwards.
"Shua!"
Splashes appeared and two points were hit.
Excited, Dayao raised his fist towards Li Ba.
"This ball is for you, go to the high position next time." Li Ba ran past Dayao and left a sentence.
"What the hell, who wants you to give it away? This time, if you want to beat you, you will be beaten." Dayao said unconvinced.
Sun attack.
Li Ba rushed to the front court at high speed, and Dayao, who had just scored a goal, was thrown off the boss.
Howard has a headache, and it's time for him to top the tank again.
Fortunately, he ran to the front court, but he didn't keep up. It was McGrady's turn to defend.
"The inside movement speed of this mosaic is still slow, and Dayao should be paired with a relatively fast power forward."
Zhang Reasonable said.
"Quick attack is Dayao's culprit, every time the hammer plays like this, Dayao will be played to death!" Yu Jia said with a wry smile.
McGrady didn't dare to block it head-on, and pulled aside, finally slowing down Li Ba's speed.
At this time Howard followed up, McGrady left and returned to defend Battier.
At this time when McGrady came to defend, on the left-wing three-point line, Battier had received a pass from Marbury and jumped up before he returned to the defense.
"boom!"
Missed three points.
The ball rebounded, and Li Ba took the lead to move to the left wing and grabbed the rebound.
At this time, Dayao came and blocked him in the front to prevent him from passing the ball, while Howard sandwiched from behind.
Originally wanted to pass back to Battier and ask him to throw another shot, but the pass couldn't pass.
"Boom!"
Howard couldn't hold it back, and was knocked back half a step.
Li Ba got the space to turn around, took a step back with his left foot, pinned Howard behind him, pressed Howard's waist with his left hand, and lifted his right foot, not only broke the double-team, but also rushed directly to the basket.
Howard pulled Li Ba's left arm, but it slipped and he didn't pull it.
Dayao was so excited that he wanted to knock off Li Ba's ball, but the latter turned around too quickly and slapped him on the back. Fortunately, the whistle didn't sound.
With one step on the ground, with the ball in his right arm, Li Ba's stature exploded.
"boom!"
Under extreme violence, he smashed the ball into the basket.
