Guard With a Knife

Orlando tried Rashard Lewis to guard Snoopy, but it didn't have the results they envisioned.

Snoopy can still use his dexterous and smooth ball handling to perform acrobatics and support his teammates to bloom more. Lewis' defense has not improved qualitatively compared to Ryan Anderson.

When the first quarter ended, the point difference between the two sides narrowed to 2 points with Stephen Marbury hitting a long-range shot from the weak side 16 feet from the basket at the buzzer.

At this moment, the Bulls have opened up the situation of being suppressed to some extent, and even faintly have the momentum of restraining the No. 1 in the East.

"Hey, Snoopy. If we were on the court just now, we would have taken the lead. I'm not kidding." When Snoopy returned to the bench, Joakim Noah immediately stepped up and said in a casual tone. His Excellency the Duke strikes up a conversation.

He has a deliberate attitude of "I am very strong, why don't you ask for me", the teacher said, a little naive and a little arrogant.

But Snoopy didn't do what he wanted, he nodded calmly: "Yeah. But Tajibson did a good job too."

When he was very young, his father told him that training a cat must not satisfy all his wishes unrestrainedly, and he must hold back when it lies on the ground and can raise its head to let you touch it.

So, that's Snoopy's mindset right now.

He was in no hurry to pay attention to Joakinoah's eagerness to try. If you want to hang him like this, be arrogant, then be arrogant.

Tom Thibodeau gave the players great appreciation from the bench, and he even said bluntly: "Just now we played the best penalty area defense of the season, we made the Orlando people at a loss, and their three-second zone offensive was almost completely contained. "

Immediately, he emphasized several important points of flank defense. While Dwight is pinched at this point, he hopes that the team will continue to make persistent efforts to control Vince Carter and Rashad Lewis' peripheral offensive.

"Defense is the fairest thing. As long as we work hard enough, unite enough, and focus enough to do every detail on the tactical board, we can also compete with the talented Eastern Conference champions."

Tom Thibodeau constantly reiterated his coaching philosophy.

On this point, Snoopy agrees very much.

But there was a small disagreement between the two in the corner behind the bench when it came to playing Joakinoah.

Tom Thibodeau believes that now is the best time to let Joakim Noah play. The playoffs are coming soon, and the two defensive barriers should quickly seize the time to run in. Moreover, Tom Thibodeau speculates based on the upcoming cruel schedule that the Bulls are very likely to enter the playoffs as the eighth in the Eastern Conference... In this way, they will directly meet the Orlando Magic, which is ranked first in the Eastern Conference.

A black eight is extremely tempting for any coach. Moreover, this is Tom Thibodeau's first season coaching the NBA.

In the first season, he led the team to the playoffs, and the black eight eliminated the first place in the Eastern Conference.

What a brilliant achievement.

He couldn't help but be moved by it.

Therefore, he couldn't understand why Snoopy didn't let Joakim Noah play at this time: "This is obviously the best time for us to figure out the tactics of Orlando."

Snoopy shook his head, he just said: "It's not the time to let Jokinoah play, I think he should wait a little longer."

This made Tom Thibodeau confused. He thought that Snoopy was deliberately suppressing Noah.

At that time, his face was slightly stiff, but he still didn't say much. The two sides ended the conversation with a peaceful gesture.

beep!

The whistle blew and the second quarter began.

Stan Van Gundy made an obvious change. He replaced Rashard Lewis and replaced Matt Barnes with perimeter defender Matt Barnes.

Barnes is known for his flank defense. With Dwight Howard as a barrier, he gradually became a defensive expert.

But now, Stan Van Gundy wants him to guard Duke Snoopy at the four.

In Van Gundy's view, Snoopy is a point guard active at the four position. Using Matt Barnes to defend just right

But... bam!

The Magic's first attack left an irreversible hole in the lineup. Mr. Nelson's pull-up jumper after driving past Marbury missed the basket.

Immediately, Dwight Howard rushed into the paint to try to grab the offensive rebound.

But... Snoopy has pouted his ass.

Taj Gibson easily beat Matt Barnes to grab the rebound.

Then pass the ball to Marbury to launch an offensive.

This rebound clearly told the Magic coaching staff: From now on, the time when you can put Howard under the basket and match a small forward with a random offensive rebound is gone forever.

And looking back, Snoopy played a new trick: post-up singles!

When he turned back to the left of the free throw line, he stuck Matt Barnes tightly. In a certain moment, it is indeed a bit like the basketball god who dominated the United Center Arena back then!

This made the fans in the United Center Arena scream uncontrollably.

Stephon Marbury passed the basketball quickly.

puff!

Snoopy squeezed back hard the first time he caught the ball.

Although the center of gravity is not as low as Pierce/Kobe Bryant and others, the movements are standard and beyond reproach.

Under the strong impact, Barnes took a step back in an instant.

He was powerless to stop him at all, and he finally felt why the Duke could beg for food in the restricted area. Although his technical style is in the same line as Jordan/Kobe. But the power is at the center level.

This sense of collision, so strong that it seems to be filled with blood in his chest, is not common in his defensive career, only occasionally changing defenses for inside players.

However, what he didn't know was. At this time, the Duke who was performing back-up singles was still unable to release all the strength in his body, only more than 60% and close to 70%.

But this is enough to give those peripheral defensive experts a headache.

puff!

Snoopy's second impact came as expected after gaining a step of space, and Barnes retreated in a panic, even failing to prepare well.

When Barnes retreated steadily, Snoopy turned around quickly. He had come to the paint area, and Howard had to follow up to help defend. While he was helping to defend, the basketball had already hit the ground directly from his crotch and penetrated into the penalty area.

Ty Gibson catches the ball easily, turns around and completes an easy layup.

The United Center arena cheered and shouted snoopy!!

Cheer for the Duke's wonderful pass.

And Jokinoah seemed a little excited, he slapped his thigh hard: this ball didn't dunk? ? ?

He thought Mrs. Ty Gibson was too...soft. This is an opportunity to boost morale. You should use all your strength and smash to the basket with incredible courage!!

Before he knew it, he subconsciously felt that he and Snoopy were the more suitable pair, and Tajibson was not even a third party at all.

The game is still going on.

Snoopy is like a nail nailed into the heart of No. 1 in the Eastern Conference. Even Tom Thibodeau didn't expect that the Duke's style of play could be so restrained from magic: Snoopy suppressed Snoopy's one big, four small plus semicircle tactics that Stan Van Gundy relied on for survival.

Snoopy does not have super shooting ability, nor does he have the height of a standard insider, and even post-up singles are only beginning to take shape. But it is such a him that the Eastern Conference champions have nothing to do.

In the second quarter, the game has been moving forward in a balanced manner.

Vince Carter and Pietrus gradually opened up their momentum, while the Bulls countered with Snoopy taking Barnes to support Quentin Richard/Luol Deng. At the same time, on the backboard... the combination of Lord Duke and Taj Gibson made the rebounder Mr. Howard quite passive. When Snoopy resisted his bottom plate, he could only watch helplessly as that unknown Taj Gibson kept jumping up Take off the backboard.

This made him extremely unhappy.
