Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

"Dudududu!"

The referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air.

Biedrins jumped up quickly and swatted the ball behind him.

Ellis caught the ball and attacked quickly, and Curry and Wright spread to both sides to give him space.

David Lee came up to help him block Collison, and Ellis took the opportunity to break through quickly.

"Really fast!"

Collison didn't call well and quickly bypassed the pick-and-roll defense.

Monta Ellis's shot selection is poor, and his shooting and passing are not stable enough, but he has been able to gain a foothold in the league by relying on his breakthrough skills that are difficult for others to catch up with, especially his breakthroughs in pick-and-rolls, which are hard to guard against.

In order to help Collison defend, West took a step back and followed Ellis closely.

But Ellis turned around and passed the ball to David Lee in the high post.

"Oops!"

West saw David Lee in an open position and quickly retreated.

But Collison also had the same idea, and the two of them were anxious and let Ellis go.

David Lee feinted a shot and passed it back to Ellis. Ellis stopped and made a jump shot.

"0-2."

The Warriors took the lead and scored 2 points.

Warriors fans on the sidelines immediately shouted Ellis' name loudly and cheered for him.

Collison called a pick-and-roll, broke through and passed back to West, assisting his teammate to make a jump shot, tying the score.

"2-2."

As soon as they came on the field, everyone in the Pacers felt a little nervous. Then when they attacked, Hibbert, Granger and Collison struck again and again, reminding the Pacers fans on the sidelines of the last quarter of the previous game.

Fortunately, under the double-teaming of George and Granger, David Lee and Ellis' shots did not hit.

George even blocked Ellis' layup head-on.

"Tsk, I have to find a chance to give it to the outside."

Ellis looked at his younger brother Curry, who had not yet had a chance to make a move, and made up his mind.

Granger missed a jumper, and when Ellis organized a fast break, he turned around and found Curry.

"What?"

George didn't expect Ellis to pass the outside line and rushed out.

Instead of forcing a shot, Curry deceived his opponent with a fake shot and passed it to Wright in the corner.

Wright made a jump shot from beyond the three-point line.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"2-5."

Seeing that Curry did not force the shot, head coach Mark Jackson standing nearby nodded with relief.

Unlike Ellis, who can only play in isolation and cannot drive his teammates, Curry's organizational skills are superior. If he were not too thin and unable to guard the superstars at shooting guard, Jackson believed that the combination of him and Ellis would

Will be the strongest backcourt duo in the league.

Collison missed a pull-up jump shot and was rebounded by David Lee under the basket.

"Quick attack!"

Although Ellis and Curry are thin, they are not slow at all. When they see their teammates get rebounds, they immediately turn around and want a fast break.

David Lee immediately passed the ball long, but his passing intention was seen through by George. George reached out in advance and completed the steal.

Collison got the ball and immediately found Hibbert under the basket. Hibbert used his height to bully Biedrins and turned around for a layup.

"4-5."

Although David Lee's defense is not good, his offense alone made him an All-Star in 2010, and he even had a super triple-double of 30 points, 20 rebounds and 10 assists.

He swayed easily, deceived West, and directly hit the backboard for a layup.

West and Granger scored consecutively to help the team take the lead. David Lee again caused Hibbert to foul inside and made two free throws.

"8-9."

Granger asked for the ball from outside and beat his opponent in singles.

Although Wright tried his best to defend, Granger made his signature pull-up jump shot.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow into the frame.

Ellis turned around and passed to Curry, allowing the younger brother to take a one-on-one shot.

Curry had difficulty getting rid of Collison's defense, so he could only make a sudden jump shot.

"clang!"

The basketball bounced out of the frame, and Granger quickly rushed in and grabbed the rebound.

"Quick attack!"

George and Collison ran quickly. Collison, who received the pass, did not rush. He waited until his teammates were in place, attracted the defense, broke through and passed the ball back to George in the high post.

George's confidence was high and he made a jump shot.

"clang!"

The basketball jumped out of the hoop.

Hibbert stretched out his long hand and picked off the rebound.

"This way!"

Granger was already in ambush in the bottom corner, reached out to receive the pass, and shot a three-point jump shot.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"13-9."

Ellis broke through to attract the defense and turned and passed to Wright. Wright lived up to the hopes of Warriors fans and hit another three-point jumper.

"13-12."

"Amazing!"

Off the court, Thompson's eyes lit up and he cheered for the team's score.

"The three-pointer is accurate. It's really fierce. If others score two points, you will make three points, so the opponent will be 1 point behind!"

Thompson only felt that he had found the direction of the future and waved the towel in his hand crazily.

"Um."

Head coach Mark Jackson had noticed the excited Thompson and nodded with some relief when he saw him celebrating wildly.

When he came to the Warriors, what he was most dissatisfied with was the poor atmosphere of the team. If he was determined to change, he needed to use some active players.

"Perhaps, he is an option."

Jackson made a mental note and turned to continue watching the game.

About halfway through the first quarter, Vogel and Jackson came on the bench.

Hill, Hansbrough, Nate Robinson, Epa Udu, Rush and others gradually appeared.

Granger felt good today and hit another three-pointer from the outside.

"18-16."

"handsome!"

George, who was replaced, was not tired at all and began to cheer for the team boss.

Nate Robinson broke through and found Rush who was ambushing the corner. He assisted his teammates to score another three points and took the lead.

"Hey, I always thought that the Warriors only focused on three-pointers after the rise of the Splash Brothers."

Qi Tian took a breath of cold air,

"Is it so accurate at this time?"

In the first quarter, the Warriors made 3 of 6 three-pointers, which surprised Qi Tian.

Granger had a strong presence today. After scoring another jump shot, he assisted Hill to score from beyond the three-point line.

After the first quarter, the Pacers led their opponents by 4 points 27-23.

Seeing his teammates walking off the field with happy faces, Qi Tian felt a little strange:

It seems that although the Warriors are accurate in three-pointers, we are not bad either.

3 out of 5 shots, which in the past should have been the amount for the entire game.

No, when did the Pacers become so accurate in three-point shooting?

Qitian had a flash of inspiration.

Is it possible that the Warriors' defense is too poor?

He turned to look at the Warriors' starters, Ellis, Curry, Wright, David Lee and Biedrins. Four of the five were unable to effectively defend their opponents.

Even Wright is considered average based on his physical fitness and defensive attitude, and his lack of defensive experience and defensive skills are also surprisingly short.
