706. Perfect defense! (Part 2)(1/2)

There was nothing wrong with the call. Courtney Lee himself felt that there was nothing wrong with the call, but it just felt weird.

Seeing Sun Ce go to the free throw line, Courtney Lee stepped back from the three-point line and waited for the free throw. He didn't argue with the referee. He did make a foul move and pressed the opponent's wrist.

Amid the chants of "Skye-hoo", Sun Ce made the first free throw.

However, in terms of free throw accuracy, Sun Ce is also not as good as Lowry, and his second free throw missed!

Lowry quickly returned to the three-point line. Courtney Lee and Gallinari, who was standing on the outermost side on the left side of the free throw line, immediately stepped down. The counterattack formation was already set up, but!

Randolph flexibly turned his back around Chris Anderson and lifted the ball in the air. The ball returned to the cylinder of the basket, bounced on the other side of the basket and fell into the frame.

Tip-in!

Randolph's added goal not only helped the team gain a 5-2 lead, it was also a successful defense!

Chris Anderson has strong running and jumping ability, and is a great offensive rebounder, but his defensive rebounding positioning is poor, and his basic skills are too rough. Even if he is stuck in position to grab rebounds, he cannot restrict Randolph.

The Grizzlies' second attack today is very important. It is to reduce the opponent's counterattack as much as possible. Of course, there is definitely no way to completely contain it, or even to contain the opponent's speed, but it is enough to let the opponent fall into a positional battle as much as possible. At least

The lineup has to do this.

Scoring is sometimes part of the offense!

When Nene picked up the ball and sent it out, Gasol was already running out of the three-point line. Sun Ce, Conley, and Battier had already retreated to the center line. Lowry could only advance quickly.

However, although it falls into a positional battle, there is no problem with Lowry leading the team. He can be used as a propeller for fast breaks and can also perform beautiful positional battle offenses.

Since the pick-and-roll was not easy to use, Lowry went to the frontcourt and chose to play Conley in isolation! For Lowry, it was easier to play Conley than to play Sun Ce. At least there was no physical disadvantage. There was no way to beat Sun Ce in the last round.

Moreover, Lowry decided to play singles, and the way he played singles was a little different from ordinary guards. He started to accelerate after passing the center circle!

Why is the small steel cannon called the small steel cannon? A+ level speed, A+ level strength, tonnage that no one can match at the same height... He rushes like a large version of Nate Robinson!

Conley saw Lowry's charging posture, and thought of a certain teammate's singles style in the training game. He quickly got close to him, but was pushed away!

Lowry rushed into the paint almost without any hindrance. Neither Battier nor Sun Ce had time to help defend. Only Gasol retreated to the basket, but Gasol retreated in a hurry and had not yet moved to the best defensive position.

Lori has popped up on her face!

Lowry jumped into the paint and threw the ball toward the basket in a confrontation with Gasol...

"beep"

With the referee's whistle, Lowry's pull-up throw hit the board!

fierce!

And be confident!

Lowry's shot was very beautiful. Even the Grizzlies players thought Lowry's shot was very beautiful.

But Conley feels that Lowry's style of play is similar to that guy's?

That guy was Sun Ce. Sun Ce had been preparing to help defend, but he didn't have time. Moreover, he saw Lowry's early acceleration action, which was very similar to him!

The details are different. Lowry slowly accelerated, exerted force outside the three-point line, used inertia and explosive power to knock Conley away and rushed into the paint at full speed, while someone else was hiding.

But the playing concept is the same!

Seeing the baby-faced Lowry pouting and squeezing his eyebrows at him after the score of 2+1, Sun Ce felt his heart aching: "My old master has been stolen?"

Sun Ce saw Lowry walking to the free throw line. He really didn't expect that he, a second-year player, would be stolen from a player who had finished his rookie contract and was already in his fifth season!

He didn't know whether he should be happy or hurt.

Just as Sun Ce thought, Lowry's singles style was learned from playing against Sun Ce last season.

This style of play is a bit irresponsible and does not care about the positioning of teammates, but if you are really determined to play in isolation, the effect will often be good. Of course, once you are blocked, you will not be able to find the target of the pass, because your teammates have not done anything at all.

Be prepared.

But if you score, it’s a good goal!

Lowry also made an extra free throw, scoring 5 points in a row, helping the Nuggets tie the score!

Fans were waiting for Sun Ce and Lawson to face off, but they didn't expect Lowry to break out first! It started so fiercely!

In the eyes of most people, Lawson has a brighter future than Lowry. He is younger. He averaged 12+7 per game in his sophomore year and is the team's second point guard. Lowry is already 25 years old. With his current performance, people

He thought it was normal, and he was so badly beaten that people immediately forgot about him.

But fans who saw Lowry play with their own eyes felt that Lowry's presence was too strong! It's really no worse than Gallinari, the Nuggets' "strongest" promoted by the media and fans who don't watch the game!

In the positional battle, Gallinari was blocked by Battier and had no chance to catch the ball!

The offense and defense transitioned, the Grizzlies attacked, and Sun Ce continued to rely on Courtney Lee in the high post on the right side of the three-second area to ask for the ball.

Post-up play is the best way to suppress the rhythm in a dynamic offense. Although the Grizzlies do not suppress the speed, they will definitely choose to work hard to suppress the rhythm.

Sun Ce received the ball, leaned on Courtney Lee to hit the ball, turned left and jumped off the line!

This time Sun Ce was aiming to cause an inside foul to the opponent. It was relatively easier to cause an inside foul and more damaging to the opponent. However, Sun Ce turned around and saw that Courtney Lee had predicted it!

Courtney Lee's observation of details is very good! He judged that Sun Ce's strength was different from the last time, predicted it, and made the correct defensive choice!

Sun Ce did not stop because of this and continued to charge forward. Courtney Lee occupied a good enough position and followed up with small steps to keep up with Sun Ce. Just when he was very focused on making a judgment, Sun Ce

When Sun Ce changed direction, he saw Sun Ce moving directly towards him!

At this time, Courtney Lee is maintaining a lateral movement with arms spread out. Defenders always have arms spread out when guarding against breakthroughs. They can increase the lateral area during the confrontation. Of course, they cannot use their arms.

To pull people in or support them, but the confrontation is more or less effective at that moment.

Just when Courtney Lee was in close contact with Sun Ce again and was a little confused about Sun Ce's breakthrough choice, something even more confusing happened!

Courtney Li heard Sun Ce say "Ah", then his arm was hit, and there was another scream from behind, and then he saw Sun Ce plunge into his arms again...

"beep"

The referee blew the whistle again! This time it was a beat too slow, and the referee couldn't even see it!

Sun Ce's ball hit the cameraman's head outside the baseline!

He shot straight to the bottom line without even aiming for the basket!

Courtney Lee's eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw Sun Ce holding his waist and standing firm before walking to the free throw line after hearing the whistle.

What just happened?

Nuggets head coach George Karl was already shouting "Crooked? What are you doing?" on the sidelines...

Courtney Lee immediately walked to the bottom line referee and asked: "Sir, what did I do? Why did I call a foul?"

Why did he commit a foul?

And he committed two crimes!

We’ve only played a few rounds in the beginning! We’ve only committed two fouls!

The referee was also very annoyed. This was not the first time he had officiated Sun Ce’s game. He had also officiated a very anxious game between the Grizzlies and the Celtics. Sun Ce had also done this before, but that was all

This is the critical moment in the fourth quarter when the Grizzlies need to take the lead, so it is understandable to use rules-based play.

But this time Sun Ce played like this at the beginning of the game! It’s incredible!

The referee is also a human being, he also has his own thoughts, and he also thinks what kind of playing style is beautiful and what kind of playing style is shameless...

But the rules are like this. This is Sun Ce's home court and Sun Ce is a popular player among the new generation of players. The referee explained: "When you moved laterally, Sun Ce had already made a shooting action. You violated his cylinder and hit the ball."

It’s a foul.”

Violation of the shooting cylinder? Foul by the thug? He posted it himself!

Courtney Lee still wanted to argue, but the referee gave a warning, so he had no choice but to endure it.

A regular foul call cannot be canceled. Courtney Lee is a very calm player with a good attitude. Knowing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, he walked to the bench depressed.

George Karl yelled something angrily and the referee ignored him. He had no choice but to make substitutions. Fortunately, he had as many people as Coach Hollins. Courtney Lee was substituted for two fouls, and Ariza could do it.

Yes, he has many people in his hands.

Sun Ce walked to the free throw line and watched Courtney Lee argue. His heart was still beating violently. He was betting on whether there would be a whistle this time. If the referee didn't whistle, it would be a shame.

I have to say that playing like this requires a strong psychological quality. Sun Ce's psychological quality is already very strong, but playing like this still feels like his head is congested, as if he has done something bad. You must know that he is the kind of person who asks his teammates to help him get stuck.

A person who doesn't even blush.

If Harden hadn't been ignored early in his career and suffered a humiliating trade, he wouldn't have had such a strong psychological quality to play like that. Otherwise, with Durant's unique physical condition, Durant would be the best to win.

The one.

However, when Sun Ce caught the ball and swatted it, thinking about the feeling of having done something bad after successfully drawing the foul, I couldn't tell whether it was shame or excitement...

But the Grizzlies fans thought there was nothing wrong with it, and they cheered when Sun Ce stepped to the free throw line!

Sun Ce retreated while the fans at the scene shouted "defend" and shot 3 points with "0".

Just full of shame.

During the transition between offense and defense, Lowry was dumbfounded when he saw Sun Ce make two free throws. Didn't he just commit a foul on Sun Ce? Sun Ce actually played so hard! He directly hit Courtney Lee for a foul in two rounds.

Crisis! This is their second defensive player on the perimeter!

After advancing to the frontcourt, Lowry was a bit clever. What does it mean to be handy? What does it mean to be miraculous? The way Sun Ce committed a foul just now was something he had never seen before.
To be continued...
