NBA Tyrant

"What a beautiful feint that completely deceived the stupid Dampier! "

It seems that I saw Dampier provoking our Howard just now, what a clown who can't help himself, hum!" The home commentator praised Howard's feints and was also disdainful of Dampier.

"Yes, but don't underestimate Dampier either, he's not bad defensively! It's the Mavericks' turn to attack, let's see how they respond. The other commentator is more objective and rational.

Harris advanced with the ball, but unexpectedly found that it was not the Magic team's big forward Turkoglou who defended his own boss, but the big center Howard, who was personally misplaced and defended.

That's right, this is a decision made by Howard after communicating with the head coach before the game, and Howard will defend Nowitzki tonight.

After all, Turkoglu's height, arm span, strength and weight are inferior to Nowitzki's compared to Nowitzki.

If he is allowed to defend, it will be for Nowitzki, who has already reached his peak, is good at using his height and back to create space for himself to score.

Tekoglu's presence is basically the same as being unguarded.

At this time, if you are a defender, short in height, and do not bounce, and do not know how to use your body to find confrontation and form interference, then you can basically only stand on the pile and watch the old driver shoot.

With the height of the old driver of 213 cm, playing the position of a big forward is really a bit of a bully, because the height of the general big forward is basically between 205-210 cm.

So, a lot of times, Nowitzki attacks on the field, playing against a power forward who is less than 210 centimeters, as if he is playing in the wrong position.

And now that Howard is defending Novitzki himself, Howard can interfere with Nowitzki's scoring to the greatest extent possible with the advantages of height, reach, weight and speed.

In addition, letting Tekoglu stare at the blue-collar Dampier who has no offensive ability with the ball, just doesn't need Tekoglu much interior defensive ability, just don't let Dampier enter the basket, he has no threat, so this temporary change can be said to be very appropriate.

"Hey, why are you here to defend me?" Nowitzki glanced at Howard with some surprise.

"Hmph, I took the initiative to tell the coach, after all, there is no one on our team except me, who can surpass you a little in height, so, old driver, do you want to challenge my defense?"

Howard felt that his witty pre-game decision must have disrupted the Mavericks' offensive deployment, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

"Howard, are you talking about me?" asked Nowitzki, confused.

"Uh... Yes! haha!" Howard smiled awkwardly, accidentally calling out the nickname that the Chinese had given Nowitzki.

"I've seen your defensive ability, and to be honest, I don't want to be guarded by you. Nowitzki reached for the ball.

"But what if you defend me, you don't really think you can guard me! rookie!"

Nowitzki receives the ball and faces Howard.

"Hmph, I'm going to say I can, old bird!" Howard didn't skew.

"Then try it!"

After saying that, Nowitzki's feet immediately activated, and suddenly quickly broke through from Howard's left hand, and immediately pulled back his body after seeing that Howard was following the defense.

360-degree back turn, body back, one foot immediately jumped, ignoring Howard, shot, boom! hollow hit!

A set of coherent and smooth movements, the classic old driver's big killer move, the golden rooster is independent!

Seeing the goal scored, Nowitzki put his middle and index fingers together and placed them on the side of his forehead, saluting Howard as he retreated.

"Rookie!Welcome to the NBA!"

"......"

Howard licked his lower lip and stood in place, his face serious.

I feel angry and unwilling for my carelessness.

Angry is the defense just now, when Nowitzki stepped back to make a jumper, he didn't even have time to interfere, which is intolerable for Howard, who prides himself on being a master defender.

Unwilling to be able to prevent it, but failed.

As a soul of later generations, Howard knows very well how terrifying Nowitzki's offensive ability is, but in the case of alignment, he doesn't pay attention to it and doesn't take it seriously to defend.

Obviously, there is a serious problem with his defensive attitude.

It seems that the previous game did affect me, so that I unconsciously began to flutter, and I had the illusion that playing the NBA was very simple, whether it was a match or a game, I could easily win.

(To clarify, Howard, the soul of the Chinese people, is a person who is extremely paranoid about defense at heart, and his enthusiasm for defense is even more than scoring, and he will immediately reflect and analyze and try to make defensive adjustments.) Magic

2:2 Maverick

"Alas! I have to say, Nowitzki's trick of golden rooster independence is so incomprehensible that even our tyrant is difficult to effectively restrain him!" The narrator shook his head helplessly.

"It can't be helped, unless Nowitzki himself has a bad hand, I haven't seen anyone in the league who can really defend against this move!" another commentator shook his head.

Coming back, the Magic attacked, and this time Howard didn't take the position inside, but waited for Francis to dribble outside the three-point line, and immediately stepped forward to cover and block Harris firmly.

Francis used the block to rush into the three-point line, and saw that Dampier did not step forward to defend himself, but leaned sideways to prevent himself from breaking through, and immediately chose to jump on the spot.

When Dampier saw Francis shooting, he didn't even have the desire to step forward to interfere, so he turned around and ran directly to the basket, ready to scramble for rebounds.

Francis' shot hit the iron, and the basketball bounced high off the hoop and flew to Dampier's head.

Dampier was happy in his heart, sure enough, Francis didn't score this goal, the head coach was right, Francis's projection was unstable, and the focus was on preventing him from breaking through.

Watching the basketball begin to fall, Dampier jumped happily and prepared to take the rebound.

Seeing that the basketball was about to be put into his hands, Dampier suddenly felt his right shoulder be knocked down, and his body was crooked in mid-air and he lost his balance.

Leaning forward uncontrollably in the air, Dampier took one last look up to see that the basketball on his head had been quickly snatched away by another pair of powerful arms.

This was followed by the loud sound of the booming basket in my ears.

It turned out that after Howard blocked and saw Francis shooting directly, he immediately rushed to the basket, took a step outside the restricted area, and just saw the basketball rebound.

So he didn't hesitate to exert his strength at his feet, jumped up and grabbed this offensive rebound, and the running and excellent explosiveness allowed Howard to successfully grab the basketball before Dampier.

However, due to inertia, Howard found that he was still rushing forward in the air, and the basket in front of him was getting closer and closer, so he had an idea, and with the help of waist and abdomen strength, he simply came to a heavy buckle with both hands.

"Heh~" Howard, who landed on the ground, turned around and yelled into the sky.

"Wow, whoa, whoa, boss, you're so brutal! so awesome! Super hunk!" Nelson jumped from the bench, waving a towel and yelling at Howard from the sidelines.

Nelson's passive attribute has been activated: Doglegs

!"Wow, oh! Incredible, jumping really high, just Francis missed a jumper, Howard rushed to the basket, and made a dunk!

"Yes, haha! Howard was directly on the head of the so-called second center in the West, snatched the rebound, and scored on the air dunk, look at Howard yelling excitedly under the basket, he must also be very satisfied with his own ball!

Losing face on Howard in a row, Dampier was furious, and when he saw that Howard was still yelling, he immediately put his black face over and pushed down Howard.

Howard was excited, Leng Buding was interrupted, turned his head to see that it was Dampier pushing himself with his chest, and immediately coldly pushed back.

"What, you

want to fight, come, come!" "Don't be too arrogant, rookie!" Dampier naturally didn't really want to fight, but simply couldn't see Howard spreading wild on his head.

"Hmph, if you can stop me, let's talk about it!Second center!!" Howard is full of disdain, if you do it, I will look at you.

"What the hell are you ......" Howard's last call made Dampier explode, and he just wanted to raise his hand to give a punch.

"Dampier, stop!" Mavericks head coach Don Nelson has already walked over.

The two are also surrounded by their respective teammates, and as long as there is something wrong, they will immediately pull the two apart, after all, the game has just begun, and it is not an important game, so there is no need to fight at all.

The three referees also hurriedly came over and separated everyone.

The conflict was temporarily resolved, and the Mavericks began to serve.

The Mavericks used Dampier to cover high-quality this time to let Josh Howard get an open spot, but unfortunately, Josh Howard hit the iron.

But Dampier stuck Turkoglu behind him, grabbed the offensive rebound, and with his weight, jumped up and squeezed Turkoglu away, completing the basket and scoring.

When he retreated, he showed his huge biceps and looked at Howard defiantly.

After the Magic 4:4 Mavericks

, Howard covered Francis in a row and let Francis shoot in the open position, but Francis hit all the iron, and the score instantly fell behind by 4 points.

Howard went to block Mobley again, and Mobley was also cold, 1-of-3 for just 2 points.

With less than 5 minutes in the first quarter, the Magic trailed by 7 points at 6:13.

Howard had no choice but to ask Francis for the ball, so he could only attack the meat shield Dampier himself.

I originally wanted to save energy in the first quarter and stay behind to stand up and harvest the game, but now I look at it, it's impossible.

Leaning his back to Dampier again, feeling Dampier's chest push against him, Howard pouted.

Howard

turned to face Dampier and broke through to the right with the ball in his right hand, seeing that Dampier had been holding his chest against himself.

Howard braked suddenly, turned 180 degrees, then shook his back from side to side, turned around and raised his hands, and saw that he successfully made Dampier raise his center of gravity and raise his hands high, wanting to interfere.

Howard immediately turned to face the basket a second time, and this time Dampier didn't have time to stick it up, Howard jumped up and threw the basketball with a small hook hand.

It's a pity, it may be too long and too long to use the big dream footsteps, although the action is not deformed, but in the end, Howard's shot is small, and the basketball hits the front of the basket and is accepted by Daniel.

"It's a pity!"

Howard slapped his hands on his chest and headed back to his own half.

The Mavericks used a fluid coordination cover to pull the Magic's outside defense all the time, and Mike Finley seized the opportunity to score another 2 points.

Howard covers Hill, Josh Howard doesn't follow, switches Howard, and Francis passes to Howard, who is misplaced.

Howard hit Josh Howard, Dampier was attracted, Hill ran out of the open space, Howard, who had a good view of the court, immediately passed to Hill, Hill hit and scored.

The Magic finally scored, and then the scores of both teams went up until more than 8 minutes, when Nowitzki went down and Howard followed off the break.

Magic 16:20 Mavericks

trailed by 4 points, Howard returned to the bench in sweat, and on the offensive end, Howard not only had to match the consumption of the meat shield Dampier, but also covered his teammates to block and dismantle, and also fought hand-to-hand to the basket for offensive rebounds.

On the defensive end, it can be said that there is no time to be idle to devote yourself to leading the Mavericks' scoring knife, to help defend the Mavericks' outside players who break into the interior by covering at any time, and to protect defensive rebounds.

By the end of the first quarter, the Magic trailed by seven points at 19:26 with the Mavericks,

the first time Howard and the Magic had trailed their opponents in the game.

Howard looked at his stats, 3-of-5 from the field, and finished with just six points, five rebounds and two assists.

In addition to the first goal being scored on Dampier's head, the other two were scored by a surprise dunk and a mid-range shot.

remembered that when he was off the court, Dampier said that he was only worthy of shooting outside, and he didn't dare to face him head-on inside.

Howard was extremely unhappy.

"Coach, let me shoot in the second quarter! I'm going to blow up Dampier!".
