Chapter 235 [Easy twenty+, destined to explode! 】

Yang Rui didn't plan to call a timeout and would fight the Suns to attack to the end.

Carter took the ball in the backcourt and looked for O'Neal to cover. This time he got away from Hardaway slightly and made an emergency jumper inside the three-point line. Langley was far away, and the slight interference with his raised hand was ineffective, and the ball went in. 15 to 11.

Carter scored 9 points and 3 assists in the opening game. All the scores were related to him, and the Suns were suspended.

Zhang Lili said: "The Raptors have a smooth opening offense. Yang Rui is good at arranging tactics according to the opponent's weaknesses. According to statistics, 85% of the Raptors' games start with a lead and ultimately win. This reflects the coach's ability." Skill."

Sun Zhengping smiled and said: "Everyone in the Raptors except Christie scored. They can always bloom more."

Skiles made adjustments, replacing Langley in advance and replacing him with Rogers to increase mobility on the court.

This substitution had an immediate effect. After the game started, Rogers ran to catch the ball and hit a three-pointer from the right, but Miller failed to follow. 15 to 14.

Rogers, who is 201cm tall and weighs 107 kilograms, is an alternative insider whose main way of scoring is shooting. On the defensive end, Rogers is responsible for guarding the perimeter, and the person guarding the basket is Gugliotta, whose height and weight are not a disadvantage.

Carter distributed the ball, and O'Neal Jr. missed the shot due to Hardaway's interference. The Suns launched a quick counterattack. Gugliotta received a pass from Kidd and forced Miller to cause a foul.

Gugliotta made two free throws, 15-16.

Yang Rui made a substitution, Miller came off, Detreff came on, the opponent's big man with tonnage rested, and sending a veteran will not become a defensive loophole.

Carter brought the ball to the frontcourt, protected the ball with his back, and waited for his teammates to move. Gugliotta defended him. Billups caught the ball and shot, ignoring the defense and relying on the rhythm to avoid the block.

It seems very casual, but Billups is actually calculated. O'Neal Jr. and Carter have a greater chance of grabbing rebounds with their bodies. The opponent's basket is empty, and he is very determined in his shots.

Don't look at the fact that Billups was often called a "blacksmith" due to his low shooting percentage in the Raptors. This style of play will be respected by 6 billion fans in the future. It is the main tactic of the Lakers and is called "assist" by the fans!

The ball bounced out of the frame. Robinson followed Detrev and stood outside. He is not good at grabbing rebounds. O'Neal rushed to grab the offensive rebound. Hardaway wanted to protect the rebound and withdrew to the basket, missing the ball.

O'Neal heard Carter's shout and passed the ball.

Carter took the ball from the three-point line in the middle.

Attracting Rogers to cover up, the ball went to the right, Detrev took an open shot, and Hardaway ran from the inside out and had no time to cover up.

The veteran's shot went hollow into the net, as simple as in training, 18 to 16, Carter's fourth assist.

Zhang Lili said: "The Raptors' overall strength has improved this season, they can coordinate in positional battles, and the ball is more reasonable. Carter can not only score, but also attract defensive passes to drive the team. His style of play is really reminiscent of Jordan." "

Sun Zhengping smiled and said: "Duncan won the championship in the second season of his career. Now we have to see whether Carter can do it. The Raptors are much better than the Spurs last season."

Gugliotta caught the ball in the low post on the right side and leaned against Carter. He turned towards the baseline, took the ball with both hands and made Carter fly up. His head almost hit the backboard.

Carter wanted to make a morale-boosting shot, but was fouled. Gugliotta bumped into Carter and made a one-handed shot, and the referee blew the whistle.

He completed the 2+1 after hitting the extra free throw. 18 to 19.

Fans love to watch soaring scores, and even if the opponent scores a goal, some will applaud. They are too confident in the Raptors and are afraid of a one-sided game that will affect the star data after three quarters. This is a sweet trouble that only fans of strong teams can experience. It is difficult for them to see exciting key goals and winning goals.

Then the shooting percentages of both sides dropped. They were both small-ball tactics and formations that were good at guarding against shots, so they defeated each other.

After several missed attacks, Yang Rui adjusted and strengthened the offense by substituting players. Tracy McGrady replaced Billups, and the position battle was changed to a triangle offense, which opened up the star singles.

After the substitutions, the Raptors' defensive intensity increased. Christie defended Kidd, McGrady defended Hardaway, who was of similar stature, and Carter defended Gugliotta.

When Kidd faced Christie, it was more difficult to break through. The players passed the ball back and forth and could not get into the open space. In the end, Hardaway made a strong shot and Carter grabbed the backcourt rebound and started to rebound.

Compared with Gugliotta, Carter only suffers from height and strength, and his jumping and speed are much better.

The positional battle began, and Carter singled out Hardaway and scored two mid-range shots. His touch was so good in this game that he didn't need to get rid of it completely. He stepped back to take a shot with some space, avoiding the block and entering.

Suns coach Skiles was conflicted on the sidelines.

Do you want to arrange a double team? By double-teaming Carter, other Raptors players will get opportunities and shoot. Without double-teaming him, Hardaway might be beaten one-on-one.

Superstars all have their own offensive system, and they can change the opponent's defense by relying on their personal abilities. Before Skiles could think of it, Hardaway missed a layup on a breakthrough, and the Raptors counterattacked.

Detrev passed to McGrady, who passed Rogers, forming a 3-on-2 frontcourt. After attracting Kidd's defense, he passed it to Carter in the middle. Carter took the ball in the middle and took three steps. He feinted to the right with both hands and did not pass the ball. Christie jumped up and scored with Gugliotta's backhand basketball.

The Suns players also felt good. Kidd hit a three-pointer to narrow the point difference...

The two sides fought back and forth in a lively manner. Carter seized the opportunity before the end of the first quarter. In the last attack, he stepped back for a three-pointer at the buzzer. He avoided Hardaway in the middle and blocked the shot, leading the Raptors to a 38-31 lead. .

Carter scored 18 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter.

In the second quarter, Carter took a break, and the Suns launched a 13-2 offensive wave to overtake the score.

McGrady was in poor condition and was guarded by Suns substitute small forward Marion. He failed to break through, and forced a turn to make a jump shot that was blocked. Marion's physical fitness is not a vegetarian either. He is fast, has amazing bounce, and has super long arms.

Zhang Li checked the information and said: "Marion is the ninth pick in the first round of this season. His body shape, appearance and shooting posture are very strange. He averages 10.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game. This rookie is amazing. It is rare to see Tracy McGrady like this." The shot was blocked.”

Sun Zhengping said: "Today, Suns forward Rogers performed at a superb level. He has made all 7 shots so far, including 3 three-pointers. He has been on guard several times."

Zhang Lili analyzed: "Jumaine and Curry on the Raptors side are misfiring. Cato can't attack well and can only defend the big man. The Suns sent two guards, Langley went out to cover, and it was uncomfortable for Cato to switch defenses. I think Gotta adjust.”

Yang Rui did not call a timeout and allowed the players to adjust on the court. Hornacek's breakthrough throw stabilized the morale of the army. After the pick-and-roll, Cato received a pass from McGrady through the air, attacked the basket and caused Randy Livingston to foul, and made two free throws.

The Suns' weakness is still Langley. If he defends against it, he can't protect the penalty area. It's not that the Raptors have no shooting opportunities, but the players have poor touch.

Carter returned to the court after a 5-minute rest, and immediately singled out Randy, scored on a mid-range shot, and scored 20+.

The Suns also hurriedly replaced Hardaway and asked him to face Carter. Skiles knew that Hardaway was at a disadvantage one-on-one, but there was no defensive player more suitable than him in the team.

As long as you keep your touch, this Carter game is destined to explode!
