The Pope of Basketball Community

Chapter 146 [Sprouting 1 Face of Blood]

The battle routines of the two sides are similar. The inside and outside cores play pick-and-rolls or off-ball screens to create misplaced opportunities. Others open up and wait for three-point opportunities, or cut to the basket to catch the ball and attack.

The Raptors quickly suppressed the Knicks, Ewing defended against Carter, and Bowen struggled against O'Neal.

Ewing's speed is getting slower and slower, and the fledgling Carter is the scud among swingers. Bowen was at a disadvantage in terms of strength and height against Jermaine O'Neal. If he wanted to defend against O'Neal, he would probably have to play black. Bowen isn't that bad right now, and it's at his own risk to play tricks on big men. The tonnage is too large, and he might be trampled.

People will praise Ewing's inside defense, but if the opponent's big man does not attack and give up the space to the defender, Ewing will often be deflated. This is one of the reasons why later generations put forward "Ewing's Law".

This law is a strange phenomenon born on the New York Knicks in the 1990s-when the team's core Ewing was injured or unable to play due to too many fouls, the overall performance of the Knicks was often unexplainably good.

Houston's hand feeling is bad today, he failed to make several shots, the Knicks can't open the outside offense, and the inside efficiency is mediocre.

24 to 16, the Raptors led the end of the first quarter. Except for Johnson and Ewing, only Ward scored two points. The Raptors have always maintained a single defense, and the effect is very good.

In the second quarter, Christie, who rested for 6 minutes, took the bench and defended Sprewell alone. McGrady was the point forward. Di Brown ran to catch the ball and shot. Miller and John Thomas were on the inside.

Big Ben was in charge of resisting the 120 kg black man Thomas in the penalty area. Miller pulled out to pick and roll, and it became Oakley to switch to McGrady, a dislocation that made the Knicks uncomfortable.

Yang Rui recognized that letting players use their bodies to bully veterans, regardless of counterattack or position, breakthroughs can be as fast as possible, don't play any skills, just rush up, it is more effective than anything, especially suitable for Carter and Tracy McGrady.

No matter how experienced an old ball ruffian is, he still can't violate the laws of physics. If you play skills with someone like Oakley and get close to him, you will definitely be annoyed by small moves, and you will be injured by his big moves if you are not careful.

Miller's rebounds are not bad, and there is no pressure to defend Oakley or Ben in the low post. He still performed after the pick-and-roll on the offensive end. He made two mid-range shots and assisted Di Brown to make a three-pointer.

In the second half, the Raptors and Knicks fought hard to defend, lowered the offensive rhythm, and relied on the personal abilities of Carter, McGrady, and O'Neal to score.

The Knicks played Ewing, and the pick-and-roll misplacement in the middle was difficult to defend. Ewing rested, and the inside offensive power was poor and he couldn't open up space.

Yang Rui and Thibodeau are very clear about the Knicks' offensive and defensive system, and they can guess how they will attack, so it is easy to make targeted defenses. The Raptors did a very good defense this time. Not only did the players switch defenses quickly, but they also assisted in defense in a timely manner.

Once Bowen is off the court, the Knicks are short of a three-pointer from the bottom corner. Ewing and Johnson are next.

The Knicks have Atkins and Jackson who can shoot three-pointers, both of whom have been reduced to marginal players and rarely played.

At the end of the three quarters, the Raptors unexpectedly led by 19 points.

Yang Rui relaxed and ate potato chips on the sidelines. The Knicks were sleepwalking offensively, and they were no longer a threat.

Leading by a big score, the players also relaxed at the end of the quarter. Alvin, DiBrown, and Carter played aggressive fast breaks, and their passing and shot selection became more casual.

During a fast break,

Carter passed the ball behind the back of his right hand while running on the right and wanted to shoot a three-pointer from the left to DiBron, who followed up. As a result, the pass was too powerful and high, flying directly over DiBron's head and into the audience.

If it is the future, he will definitely be on the "Five Big Jiong".

What's even more embarrassing is that the basketball hit the face of a person off the field impartially, and the little fan's slap-sized face had a close contact with the basketball.

Bang, Lao Gao bounced the basketball, the little fan tilted his head back, and his nose bleeds profusely.

Yang Rui was stunned when he looked back. This unlucky kid is not far from the player's bench, which is considered a safe zone, and he could be hit by a basketball. She cried so badly, who is it not Nina Dobrev?

I'll wipe it, this chance... is too unlucky, right?

He thought about it carefully, Nina was an unlucky person in her previous life, and it was very difficult to become famous. The only work she could get was "The Vampire Diaries".

On the big screen of movies, she rarely even had the chance to make a vase, and her name would often appear in the publicity, and then the fans found her soy sauce for a few shots, pure passerby.

In the later period of "The Vampire Diaries", Nina was also collapsed by the brain-dead screenwriter. On the TV, her relatives hung up one after another, and she came out in one, two, and triple bodies, became a vampire, was possessed by her ancestors, and became "dog blood" in minutes Ghost Diary". In the end, she decided not to act. After quitting, she had no other films to shoot, so she could only play tricks and participate in variety shows to dawdle.

The game where Nina was crying was interrupted. Seeing that she was about to become the Canadian version of Meng Jiangnv, Yang Rui had no choice but to leave the player's bench and go to coax the children. "Well, are you okay? Your nose isn't broken, is it?"

"No...but it hurts so much." Nina sobbed with her mouth flattened.

Alexander wiped her face and nose with a tissue, with a helpless expression.

Yang Rui handed a pack of "keTTle Potato Chips" to Nina. "Eat something, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen... I guarantee that Carter's pass this time, the tactics were not arranged by me."

Alexander is sweating madly, isn't this nonsense?

"How embarrassing." Nina took the potato chips, her mouth was flattened, and she wanted to cry again.

"Don't be ashamed, you are going to be famous because of a blessing in disguise. This is a live commercial performance. In a few days, keTTle Potato Chips may ask you to shoot commercials. The smooth progress of the competition is all thanks to the potato chips." Yang Rui said in a low voice. .

Nina laughed through her tears. This child has a very strong nose, otherwise he would definitely not be able to laugh. He has to go to the hospital right now.

Carter stood stupidly on the sidelines, not daring to go up to coax the children. With his current popularity, the fans would go crazy when he was in the auditorium, and all kinds of female fans took advantage of him. Fortunately, Yang Rui helped him solve the problem.

Thomas Bentley also came to watch the game, sitting not far away, with a very exciting expression.

He looked at Yang Rui, and glanced at Nina, with something like "I see you have amazing bones, simple mind, and well-developed limbs, you must be a rare pervert".

When he was ready to go home, he changed to support Yang Rui.

I was wrong, brother, you should go find that 14-year-old. That one can be sentenced to up to 20 years, and this one must be sentenced to death.

Zhang Lili sighed: "Carter made the little fans cry, Yang Rui went to the stands to coax them, and even gave away a pack of snacks. It was really a heart-warming scene on the field."

Sun Zhengping said with a smile: "Except for Yang Rui, other coaches can't do this kind of thing. First, they are too old, and second, they don't bring snacks."

The game continued. Carter stopped performing after the ball and passed the ball honestly. Di Brown and Alvin were in good condition and maintained their advantage.

The photographer gave Nina a lot of close-ups, and the shot of her eating potato chips with a red nose became the funniest tidbit in the scene.

Many TV viewers burst out laughing, this kid's face is bloody.
