Chapter 232: Your DPOY should be made of water
Originally, the fadeaway jump shot is very energy-intensive, and Lian Dao also consumes energy on the defensive end. In a game, there is not much time for Lian Dao to use the "God\'s Backward" badge.
If the stamina is below 50%, the effect will be halved, and if the stamina is below 20%, the badge will not have the bonus effect.
This badge can still be used in the second half of the game, that is, the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth quarter, but the effect is basically greatly reduced at other times.
9:2.
Although Matt Barnes\' defense is very experienced and active, his defensive strength is not enough to defend Lian Dao.
"DeWalt Howard is still playing Millsap inside with the ball in singles. The previous two defeats made Howard feel competitive. He must find his way back on Millsap." Mike Brown looked excitedly. Watching the collision of two inside players under the basket.
Playoffs! If there is no intensity, what is the playoffs?
But this time Howard lost half of his anger because of the last goal, so this time his mind was still calm. Howard held the ball in the low post and continued to sit back. Millsap\'s defense was still tough.
This scene is like Howard hitting a rock. No matter how hard Howard tries, the rock seems to be rooted in the ground, completely unmoved by it.
Just when everyone thought Howard was going to continue to fight Millsap, Vince Carter suddenly cut in.
"Shet!" Wilson Chandler cursed secretly, and when he stepped forward to catch up, Carter had already left him by half.
Howard, who was still playing Millsap, hit the ground and sent the ball to Carter. Carter was a little uncomfortable when receiving the ball, but he didn\'t think that Howard could pass high-quality passes.
After Carter took the ball, he adjusted and quickly went to the basket. Since Millsap was held back by Howard, it was too late to make up the defense.
And David Lee was pulled to the outside by Lewis, and it was too late to return to defense now.
Can only watch Carter flying dunk.
9:4.
"Oh, the cooperation between Howard and Carter, this ball is very exciting, and their cooperation is also very tacit."
Looking back, the Knicks still handed the ball to Lian Dao, Lian Dao still easily broke through Matt Barnes\' defense, and Howard, who was originally transferred to the three-point line by Millsap, quickly shot to the basket. Shrinking the defensive line, after Lian Dao jumped up, Howard also jumped up, but then found that Lian Dao didn\'t make a dunk or layup.
When Lian Dao jumped up, he passed the ball behind his back to Millsap on the outside.
Millsap, who was wide open, didn\'t adjust much at all, and shot a three-pointer after receiving the ball.
The arc of basketball is very positive!
"brush!"
Three points hit!
12:4.
"Oh, what a stealthy pass. Sickle\'s pass fooled Howard and accurately gave the ball to Millsap\'s hands. We know that in the last game, when the Bucks defended alone, they did not Sickle was not restricted, this time Van Gundy still used a single defense against Sickle, and it is not difficult to see from the previous two defenses that Matt Barnes cannot withstand Sickle\'s offense."
"I can\'t help it!" Matt Barnes cursed inwardly.
The wonderful performance of the Knicks at the beginning of the game has already caused the fans in the stands to speak ill of Lian Dao.
Stan Van Gundy scratched his head, he was really getting a headache from Lian Dao.
This point of Lian Dao has been difficult to limit since the regular season, and now the evolved Lian Dao is even more difficult to defend.
To be honest, until now he has no particularly good way to restrict Lian Dao.
Matt Barnes\' defensive strength is there. Even if Van Gundy tries to break his head, there is no way to improve Matt Barnes\' defensive ability.
Compared with James, Lian Dao is more difficult to defend in Van Gundy\'s mind.
Most of James\' offensive ends are at the basket. As long as Howard sits at the basket, the Magic will be fearless.
But Lian Dao is different. The basket, mid-range, three-point line, three-point step, and even the logo area are all within the shooting range of this guy. This guy with both body and shooting is too threatening.
Stan Van Gundy can only count on the Magic\'s perimeter to open quickly.
Here is Vince Carter again. With the help of Lewis\' pick-and-roll, he misplaced past David Lee\'s defense and went to the basket. Millsap had to step forward to defend, but Carter passed the ball directly to the basket. Howard, Howard got up and dunked.
After landing, he beat his chest and roared in filial piety.
Millsap\'s face was a little ugly, and David Lee also raised his hand at this time to admit that it was his fault.
12:6.
Here, Lian Dao calls for Millsap to pick and roll, and he wants to displace Howard in singles.
Millsap\'s pick-and-roll also pulled Howard near the three-point line.
One step beyond the three-point line, Lian Dao held the ball and signaled his teammates to pull away.
Howard stepped on the three-point line to defend Lian Dao. He knew that Lian Dao\'s three-pointers were very good. After all, the two were teammates in the All-Star Game.
So this time, he also made sure that he could save it in the first place.
Lian Dao\'s current position, for most three-point shooters in the league, is usually dribbling to find shooting space, so Howard doesn\'t feel that Lian Dao will make a sudden shot, so he is not particularly cautious.
But that was an ordinary shooter, and Lian Dao was not an ordinary shooter. He took a look at Howard\'s position, without any hesitation, raised his hand and shot directly. From raising his hand to shooting, it was just in between.
This is Lian Dao\'s three-pointer, and this is also the shooting speed that Lian Dao inherited from Curry\'s three-pointer.
In the eyes of others, this kind of shooting speed is outrageous.
In the eyes of others, such an attack is not a good opportunity.
But in Lian Dao\'s eyes, this is the vacancy, this is the opportunity, and this is his own rhythm!
"Hitsthethree!" Mike Breen yelled.
"This way of shooting, I guess the only one in the league who dares to do this is Sickle. If other people dare to shoot like this, I guess he will be pressed on the bench by the coach until the bench is worn out! However, this also proves that Sickle It\'s so powerful, it\'s hard to defend against, and Howard, who had already stood up for a long time, reacted with a full shot!"
"Sickle\'s shooting range can reach half the court. It is not so easy for Howard to prevent Lian Dao."
15:6.
The Knicks continued to expand the score.
"Dwight, is this your defense? If so, your DPOY should be made of water." On the way back to the defense, Lian Dao spat trash talk at Howard.
"I will let you see my defensive ability, as long as you dare to come to the basket, I will definitely smash you!" Howard also spat trash talk not to be outdone.
Jameer Nelson drives the ball upfield.
Still Lewis stepped forward to pick and roll, but Holiday did not switch defenses with David Lee, but chose to go around the pick and roll. Jameer Nelson is a heavy point guard~www.mtlnovel.com~The speed is average, so it is difficult for him to get rid of Get rid of Holiday\'s defense.
So, he quickly threw the ball to Vince Carter. Vince Carter had no chance at this time. He was entangled by Wilson Chandler. If it was in the early years, he would have accelerated to get rid of Chandler and went to the inside It\'s a dunk, but after several knee injuries and several injuries, Carter\'s athletic ability has been greatly reduced.
It\'s hard for him to get rid of the younger Chandler now.
So, the ball was handed over to Howard who was inside.
After Howard received the ball, he turned to pick the basket with Millsap and made a hit!
Howard no longer has a power confrontation with Millsap. He now uses more low-post skills and singles Millsap.
At this point, due to the influence of height, it is also difficult for Millsap to interfere.
15:8.
Many people in later generations feel that the Magic introduced Vince Carter this season and let Hedo Turkoglu go, their strength has not increased much.
This is indeed the case. When Vince Carter was introduced in 2009, Carter averaged 20.8 points per game in the 08-09 season. Increased, he can\'t do the same offensive way as in the Nets.
In the Magic\'s offensive system, Hedo Turkoglu, who plays the role of engine, left Toronto at the end of last season.
They actually passed the ball on the outside this season, which has dropped a lot compared to last season.
Although they traded for Carter, in the eyes of many people, Carter is not as good as Hedo Turkoglu in terms of organizing offense.
Of course, Carter\'s offensive ability is also inferior to Hedo-Turkoglu.
