The Way of the Center
Chapter 360: Ensuing Problems
After Stoudemire scored the ball, instead of regretting, Anjie smiled excitedly. E┡ Δnovel Ww%W. *1XIAOSHUO. COM this monster, maybe he likes simplicity in life, but on the basketball court, the more challenging the game, the more enjoyable it is for An Jie!
"Let's go, Felton, let's attack!" An Jie finished speaking, hit the baseline, and unhurriedly headed towards the Knicks' half court.
In the attack by the Knicks just now, "Boxing Champion" Tyson Chandler's entanglement made Anjie feel very uncomfortable. This time, Angieben intends to meet this strong contender for the Defensive Player of the Year again on the offensive end. But when he stepped into the three-point line, An Jie realized that the person who came up to defend him was not Chandler, but Stoudemire who had just provoked him!
"Do you want to use Chandler to defend LaMarcus?" Angie didn't understand why the Knicks made such an arrangement. In fact, this was Mike Woodson's confidence in Stoudemire. He believes that the angry Stoudemire is definitely the best knife to defend Anjie. In this way, the Knicks can also free up a candidate for the best defensive player to strangle the Trail Blazers' second-in-command.
As a result, the Blazers offense will be deadlocked. Taking advantage of this period of time to quickly build up an advantage, when Anjie is off to rest, Woodson plans to completely open the score!
It is in this consideration that Woodson specially arranged such a defense change. However, it turns out that Woodson's decision is extremely correct at present.
Stoudemire is very good at defending Anjie. After all, everyone is an old opponent who is familiar with each other.
An Jie is now holding the ball with his back to the basket, but it is very uncomfortable for him to turn around. Stoudemire blocked Anjie's turning space, not because of how good Stoudemire was, but because he was familiar with Anjie's turning habits!
Anjie was afraid that he would be called a violation because of too long back time, so he planned to hand over the work of ending the offense to Aldridge.
However, if it is difficult for even Anjie to get rid of Chandler's entanglement, let alone Aldridge.
The "Champion of Boxing" was like brown candy, biting Aldridge to death. Aldridge ran hard to catch the ball, but receiving the ball was only the first step. After catching the ball, how to defeat the strong man in front of him was the most critical point.
After holding the ball, Aldridge made a shot, but the experienced Chandler was unmoved at all. Chandler has seen this kind of fake action a lot, and he is very clear about which ones are real and which ones are fake.
Seeing that he couldn't get the space to shoot, Aldridge was ready to break through directly. But when he came into contact with Chandler,
He immediately gave up the idea of forcing a layup.
This guy Chandler is simply too strong! And his back footwork is superb, neither giving you space nor backing too fast.
Aldridge barely walked to the basket under fierce physical confrontation, but even so, he found that he didn't get any chance for a layup at all.
Helpless, the Twin Towers of the Trail Blazers had no choice but to hit the ball outside again. However, Wesley Matthews' first three-point shot deviated from the basket. In fact, he was not to blame for this, but Anjie and Aldridge left too little time for preparation and adjustment. Matthews didn't even have time to make moves to gain space for himself, so he had to hurry up.
By the time Matthews received the ball, the 24 seconds of shot clock were running low. Forcibly shot, this is the only option for Matthews.
Anjie didn't dare to rush forward to grab rebounds under Stoudemire's position. He knew that Stoudemire would not hesitate to use flops to deal with him. If he got a foul because of fighting for rebounds, It's really not worth it.
As a result, Stoudemire firmly protected the rebound. When Mike Woodson saw that the ball was firmly in the hands of the Knicks, he smiled smugly.
Anjie and Aldridge, the most powerful weapon of the Trail Blazers, one of the most powerful inside combination in the league, isn't that just like that, they were solved by themselves! ? Of course Woodson will be happy about this, because he has solved a problem that many teams cannot solve.
"The Knicks' defense is very good. Ann and Aldridge's first offense was blocked strongly." Mike Breen rarely saw Anjie and Aldridge on the offensive end. Embarrassed. But he knew that these two big men with explosive offensive abilities would definitely come up with effective solutions. This game will be an offensive and defensive game between the insiders.
After the Trail Blazers' offense failed, Carmelo Anthony finally opened fire not to be outdone. As soon as he advanced beyond the three-point line, he took off and shot directly. A chasing three-pointer caught Gerald Wallace by surprise. The basketball went into the net again. Anthony's right hand was likened to a pistol, and he shot towards the basket guarded by the Trail Blazers. Today, his shots are as accurate as bullets.
The Knicks implemented Woodson's arrangement very well. In the two offenses, they all used shots from outside the three-second zone as their means of attack. Because the best way to avoid An Jie is to stay far away from the three-second zone.
Maybe other teams using this method will cause their shooting percentage to be greatly reduced, which will be counterproductive. But the Knicks, with many good shooters, are definitely the most suitable team for this offensive deployment.
Whether it is Stoudemire or Anthony, or their small forward Landry Fields and Iman Shumpert on the bench, they are all players with very accurate shots.
Woodson certainly knows that shooting alone cannot solve the problem. But at least during the time when Anjie was on the court, the Knicks could rely on shooting to stabilize the situation, so as not to be overwhelmed by the Trail Blazers.
After two rounds of offense and defense, Woodson's strategy has been well executed. If the game continues like this, the Knicks will be able to fully control the initiative of the game without waiting for Anjie to end.
However, if the game can be as beautiful as the coaches of both sides expected, then the charm of basketball will not be so great. The reason why there are so many timeouts in basketball games is because the situation on the field changes rapidly, and the head coach has to adjust to the current situation at any time. The variable in this game started with the Trail Blazers' offense.
Ricard actually didn't make any changes, but the Blazers players on the field planned to solve the offensive problem first.
The Knicks' defensive strategy has not changed. Stoudemire is still entangled with Angie, while Tyson Chandler is stuck with Aldridge.
It may be difficult to achieve results by continuing to grind with these two stubborn guys in the low post. Although the strength of the Trail Blazers is inside, but this time, An Jie felt that it might be better to attack from the outside.
As soon as Felton adjusted his ball control rhythm, Anjie raised him from the low post. Although Anjie's shooting ability is not as abnormal as Aldridge's, it is still very accurate. So Stoudemire didn't dare to neglect, so he had to follow Anjie out of the three-second zone.
Felton shot a feint to the left, and the inexperienced Jeremy Lin shook his center of gravity slightly like a reflex. This slight wavering was enough for Felton to get rid of Jeremy Lin's defense. It's not because of how fast Felton is, but because he knows how good Anjie's pick-and-roll quality is.
Sure enough, Jeremy Lin, who saw that he was being deceived, suddenly changed his center of gravity and rushed in the opposite direction. But this time, he hit the "wall" made by An Jie solidly.
Jeremy Lin's physical condition is very average, and Jeremy Lin completely stagnated when he was put in the same position as the strong An Jie. When these two yellow-skinned guys collided for the first time, the gap was very obvious!
Felton easily entered the inside line. At this time, Stoudemire was still defending Anjie from the outside line. Anthony and Fields stuck to Matthews and Gerald Hua who were outside the three-point line respectively. Lace. In other words, the only person who can prevent Felton from laying up is Tyson Chandler!
But Chandler is still hesitating, should he continue to carry Aldridge, or leave him to defend the penalty area?
No matter how high the shooting percentage is, there is a chance that the shot will not be made. And if the penalty area is thrown to the opponent for an empty basket, it is almost impossible for the opponent not to make it.
Thinking about it this way, Chandler finally left Aldridge behind and made up for Felton.
Seeing Chandler moving sideways, Felton was not reckless. He passed the ball lightly and threw the ball to Aldridge who was in the open position.
As soon as Aldridge lifted the basketball to shoot, he saw a figure wearing a Knicks white home jersey attacking him out of the corner of his eye.
Seeing this situation, Aldridge quickly stopped. In the next second, Stoudemire flew past Aldridge's eyes.
"It's a good thing I didn't make a shot, otherwise Stoudemire's career will add another wonderful block!" Even Mike Breen, who was explaining the game in the audience, gave Stoudemire a pinch. sweat.
Now, Chandler and Stoudemire, who were going to fight Anjie and Aldridge to death, both left their positions.
Aldridge made an easy pass and hit the ball back to the original point.
After Stoudemire was swayed by Aldridge, he saw Anjie holding the ball and killing him in the penalty area.
Now, the first reaction of Chandler and "Little Overlord" is to stop this guy!
So the two strong insiders of the Knicks both rushed towards An Jie, but An Jie was not afraid of these two moving walls.
As soon as one foot stepped into the free throw line, An Jie took off. A dunk from the free throw line? No, this is not a fairy tale, it is impossible for An Jie to make that kind of action. The reason why he took off so far from the basket is because Angie intends to end the offense with a floater.
Stoudemire and Chandler did not expect that Anjie would have such a move. They jumped up hastily to block the shot. As a result, neither of them touched the basketball, but because of inertia, they knocked Anjie to the ground.
At that moment, a sharp whistle resounded throughout the audience. And the basketball thrown by An Jie also went into the net hollow!
"A chance to hit a three-pointer! Well done, Anjie successfully cracked the Knicks' inside defensive strategy!" Mike Breen knew that Anjie and Aldridge would think of a way to solve the problem, but he did not expect that this scene will come so fast.
Anjie still made the free throw under the overwhelming boos of the Knicks fans. Woodson did not expect that his defensive strategy would come to an end in just two rounds.
If you want to beat the Blazers, this trick is not enough.
In the following games, the two sides had offense and defense against each other. The Knicks played very well with the cooperation of Anthony and Stoudemire, and the teamwork of Anjie and his teammates also made the Knicks miserable.
The score has not been opened, until the moment when the substitute players from both sides came on the field, the situation tilted.
Marcus Camby was sieved by J.R Smith, and Steve Novak's precise three-pointer also made the Blazers' bench players unable to cope.
The originally flat score was quickly extended. When the first quarter ended, the Knicks led by eight points! You know, when An Jie left the field just now, the scores of both sides were even.
With an eight-point advantage to end the first quarter, the Knicks must be very satisfied. Their second unit, in particular, battered the Blazers' bench.
Ricard never imagined that his team would be in trouble because of his second team.
Fortunately, there are still three quarters to play in the game, and Ricard already has a plan in mind.
The balance of victory has tilted towards the Knicks. Now, Ricard must find another support point to reverse the situation. And An Jie is the most practical repair tool for him to repair the balance!
