Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

The timeout ends and the game continues.

After returning to the game, the Magic increased their defensive intensity, hoping to use high-intensity physical confrontation to affect the Nets' offensive rhythm.

The key target on their offensive end is Brunson, the Nets' young point guard.

Brunson is the least experienced among the Nets' starting five, and his physical fitness is not top-notch.

Clifford knows how to pick on the weak, so he can't let Gordon challenge Porzingis head-on, right?

On the first attack back, Terrence Ross moved Brunson in front of him through a pick-and-roll, and then started a singles play.

Rose's athletic talent is extremely explosive. He is a rocket-type super sixth man with unique offensive skills.

Brunson suffers from his athletic talent. After all, Rose is also a man who has won the dunk king.

I saw Terrence Ross dribbling to the right corner first, then turning his back and relying on the ball.

He wanted to put pressure on Brunson through physical confrontation and shoot close to the basket.

But the moment the two people came into physical contact, Terrence Ross was surprised to find that the seemingly short Brunson behind him actually had lower body strength that was not inferior to his!

This surprised Rose a little, so he could only change his moves immediately, turn around in the middle, and shoot a fadeaway jumper against the defense.

After being hit, Brunson's center of gravity was slightly backward, but he still jumped with all his strength and reached out to interfere.

Although the ball failed to block the shot, Terrence Ross was interfered with when he took action.

There is no doubt that this was a moderately successful defense.

However, Terrence Ross was lucky. The ball bounced twice on the neck of the basket and finally rolled into the net.

"Shh!"

10: 2.

The Magic finally broke their scoring drought, with Rose scoring the first goal.

After the goal, other Magic players were very excited.

There seems to be only two points difference between 10:0 and 10:2.

But the psychological pressure it brings to players is different.

Now, magic has finally seen the light of day, and it doesn't look good after all.

They took this goal as a clarion call for the team to counterattack and prepared to reduce the score in one go.

But the idea is very rich, but the reality is very skinny.

The Magic players were just halfway through their dream when they were given a slap in the face by the Nets.

In the positional battle, Cousins ​​dropped directly into the low post, while Mitchell and Brunson were ambushing each other in the left and right corners.

The top of the arc was given to Durant and Porzingis.

The pick-and-roll initiated by the two strikers Porzingis and Adu is very threatening. As long as the defensive players are out of position, they will inevitably pay a heavy price.

Going to the right to break through and attract the defense, Adu saw that Cousins ​​was going deep under the basket and directly lobbed the ball to the inside.

Interestingly, as soon as Cousins ​​got the ball, the Magic actually chose to double-team.

Even Cousins ​​didn't expect the Magic's double-teaming behavior. Can he still enjoy this kind of treatment now?

After just thinking for a moment, Cousins ​​came to his senses and immediately passed the ball to Porzingis outside the three-point line.

Clifford made full preparations before the game.

Of the five points on the court for the Nets, apart from Cousins, the most unstable three-pointer is Porzingis.

Therefore, when double-teaming Cousins, shorting Porzingis is the point he thinks is the least costly.

However, Boshen played under Lu Yong and has long become a more stable high-position fort than Daluo.

It is true that he is not as perverted as Durant when it comes to shooting against defense, but when faced with open opportunities, he is really not soft at all.

After receiving the ball from Cousins, Boshen didn't hesitate and threw the three-pointer with his hand.

"boom!"

"Shh!"

The basketball bounced on the edge of the basket and finally fell into the net bag.

13: 2.

Porzingis and Cousins, who retreated, smiled and high-fived each other.

Lu Yong, on the other hand, sat off the court, picked up a thermos cup, and leisurely drank the tea made in advance.

He is very satisfied with the players' offensive choices on the court.

Whether it's the way Cousins ​​handles being double-teamed or Porzingis's decisive three-pointer, this is what he wants to see.

Putting aside whether to make progress or not, at least the Nets are attacking in the right way. The hidden meaning behind this is far more important than the temporary lead.

In the words of Zhang Weiping's guidance, this is how the ball should be played.

As Porzingis made a three-pointer, Magic head coach Clifford also frowned.

The situation on the court is too unfriendly to the Magic. If even Porzingis's three-pointer is missed, the game will really be unplayable.

After thinking for a long time on the sidelines, Clifford couldn't come up with a good idea.

After all, the comprehensive strength of the two teams is there. Even if he arranges tricks, it can't change the fact that the opponent is too strong.

The Magic attacked. This time, Fournier started the attack with the ball and moved Brunson in front of him through the pick-and-roll.

It was the same routine of bullying people from behind, and after two hard blows, Fournier finally understood why Rose was surprised in the last round.

Brunson's short body actually hides such a powerful core strength. Fournier couldn't squeeze out much space even with all his strength behind his back.

As Mitchell gave up Fultz who was facing him, he double-teamed Fournier.

In a hurry, Fournier could only pass the ball to Fultz outside the three-point line.

Facing the open space, Fultz, who shot only 25.4% from three-point range, hesitated. After Mitchell returned to defense, he lobbed the ball to Fournier again.

Fournier didn't dare to drag it on anymore and directly chose a fadeaway jumper that turned towards the baseline.

Just like Rose just now, he is truly a talent cultivated by a team.

Unfortunately, Brunson's defense was not out of position on this ball and interfered with Fournier's view of the shot.

"boom!"

Under physical contact, Fournier's ball missed the basket, and the backboard was protected by Cousins.

In the situation under the basket with Cousins, Vucevic was completely at a disadvantage.

Although Vucevic is also 2 meters tall and weighs 13 kilograms, he has little advantage in front of Cousins ​​and cannot squeeze in when trying to seize the position.

Protecting the backcourt rebound, Cousins ​​saw Durant running forward and threw a long pass forward.

This fast break was so fast that the Magic had no time to react.

He could only watch helplessly as Adu caught the ball and took off with an exploding tomahawk dunk!

"boom!"

15: 2.

After returning from the timeout, the Nets still used offense to defeat the Magic.

This scene made Clifford stand up on the sidelines. He looked at a loss and looked like a bereaved dog. He could only worry.

The next game was still dominated by the Nets.

Durant often stood up and scored in singles, and directly pulled up against the defense from outside the three-point line.

There was no score pressure, the Nets players played very easily, and it didn't look like the playoffs at all.

In the next round, Durant used his huge first step to successfully break through the defense and dunk Vucevic in the paint.

The show isn't over yet!

A minute later, Adu turned over in the corner and succeeded in a jump shot, causing Fournier's thug to foul.

With a 2+1 goal, the Magic players' confidence was completely shattered.

In just three minutes, Durant used his personal ability to score consecutive points, and no one in the Magic could guard him.

Domestic commentators couldn't help but sigh when they saw the tragic situation of the Magic team.

"The Nets, who went all out, were too brutal. The Magic, which has always been known for its defense, were defeated. They were 15 points behind in half a quarter. This game was wasted in one quarter!" Wang Meng sighed.

Yang Yi: "This game does not look like the playoffs, but if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that the Nets played like this." "Both teams are not the same in terms of the number of stars or the quality of the stars. The Nets' opponents, a large part of the reason why they were able to win in the regular season was because the Nets' own offense was not good."

"When the Nets get better, the Magic's defense looks like no threat to them. This is what a championship team should look like!"

"It's hard to imagine that Lu Yong built the Nets into this in just three years. He deserves to be called the number one coach in basketball." Yang Yi analyzed with admiration.

For the next period of time, the Nets offense remained aggressive and continued to expand the point difference.

Although Lu Yong is well-informed, he was also surprised by today's game.

Before the quarter was finished, the Nets already led by 24 points.

This is a playoff game where we fight hard every game!

It made the Magic look like they were playing match-fixing, with the point difference being more than their entire team's score.

A team that can enter the playoffs, no matter how bad it is, must have something good and cannot be a weakling.

And a team like the Magic has a chance of defeating any team with its defense.

But now, the Nets took just one quarter to make the game lose suspense.

Lu Yong sat on the sidelines with a curious face, wanting to see how many points the Nets could win after the whole game.

There is currently one and a half minutes left before the end of the first quarter, and the score is 1:42.

This score can only be described as dreamy.

Among them, Durant scored 16 points alone, Brunson scored 8 points, and Porzingis scored 7 points. Each of them was really merciless.

Seeing that the first quarter was about to end, Lu Yong simply came up with five ups and five downs to let all the main players take a rest.

Rose, Dunro, LeVert, Oubre, and Claxton appeared on the stage.

Although it is an all-substitute lineup, the offensive firepower is still strong, both offensive and defensive, and it can still beat the Magic.

On the Magic side, Clifford, who was constantly wiping away cold sweat, kept Fultz and Vucevic on the court.

With two starters and three substitutes, he didn't dare to show off like Lu Yong.

He is just praying not to be beaten by the Nets to the largest point difference in the playoffs and be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

The pause ends.

When the Nets attacked, Rose advanced with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize the attack.

Although he has extensive playoff experience and is the team's sixth man, Rose's playing style is not a ball dominance type.

He will not rush to express himself in front of the audience, but will sort out the offense according to the tactics arranged by Lu Yong.

On the weak side, Dun Luo used Oublay's cover to come out.

Rose made a sudden move and passed the ball, assisting Dunro to catch the ball and shoot.

"boom!"

The ball hit the neck of the basket and bounced out of the basket.

Claxton jumped high and grabbed the offensive rebound.

Vucevic followed up and didn't give Claxton a second chance to get up.

When Claxton saw this, he didn't fight hard and turned back to look for his teammates.

Rose suddenly started on the strong side and cut from the center to the basket.

Claxton immediately passed the ball when he saw it, and Rose decisively hit the basket after receiving the ball.

Faced with the help of substitute forward Wesley Iwundu, Rose folded the lever in the air like a twist and used his signature lever layup to complete the score.

"Shh!"

At 44:18, the Nets came on the bench to continue to expand their lead.

In this attack, Rose used his signature move.

He was better than him at folding the lever in the air, but Rose did the whole set of movements very naturally, and in a trance, he really felt like he was dreaming of returning to the top.

The Magic attacked, Vucevic held the ball in the low post, saw Claxton defending behind, turned around and made a throw.

44: 20.

This goal stopped the bleeding.

Although the score difference is still very large, at least there is a response and it is no longer a simple passive beating.

Looking back, the Nets quickly hit the baseline ball.

Rose dribbled the ball quickly and ran forward. Faced with Fultz's personal entanglement, Rose suddenly moved forward and feinted, directly shaking Fultz away.

After passing his opponent, he accelerated straight to the basket and met Wesley Iwundu who was covering the defense.

I saw Rose's signature change of direction without slowing down, walking to the left and easily passing Aiwundu, and scored steadily with a throw near the basket.

"Shh!"

46: 20.

"Pretty!"

"This ball is so powerful!"

"After changing directions and passing two people in a row, Rose performed at his peak tonight. You can always see the spirit of refusing to admit defeat in him!" Wang Meng shouted.

Yang Yi: "Yes, I believe many fans can see the shadow of Rose's youth in this ball!"

"Change direction without slowing down, easily pass the opponent's defense, this kind of ball is really not possible for ordinary people, it has to be Derrick Rose."

"It seems that Lu Yong does have a kind of magic power. He can make veteran players play better, even Rose is no exception." Yang Yi said with a smile.

Many fans are excited about Rose's dream of returning to the top.

After all, Rose also attracted countless fans back then, and it is a pity that he was injured early.

This was the best point guard of the year, but he was defeated by his body.

At the same time, Lu Yong also applauded with a smile on the sidelines.

He knows that Rose wants to prove that his sword is still young. If he wears the championship ring that he dreams of, he hopes that he will contribute instead of sitting on the bench and being a jerk.

On the last attack of the first quarter, Rose dribbled the ball across half court to press the clock.

Raising his hand to signal his teammates to pull away, he wanted to play singles.

Facing Fultz, Rose lowered his center of gravity. After dribbling the ball to his right hand, he exerted force on his toes and jumped off the ground.

Fultz immediately retreated to pursue, but Rose's breakthrough was false, and he braked suddenly and pulled the ball back from in front of him.

Rose's breakthrough fake move can only be described in one word, fake to be real.

Fultz didn't expect that his opponent could still have such speed and explosive power at his age.

After being shaken, the center of gravity of the body shifted. He tilted his left hand to support the ground, trying hard to catch up.

The next moment, Rose suddenly made a breakthrough again, bounced the ball high with his left hand, and then made a huge change of direction in front of his body.

Fultz was completely unresponsive, his feet slipped, and he fell to the ground with a dog-gnawing motion.

He was knocked down by Rose's change of direction! !

"I bought it!"

The fans at the scene exclaimed.

After Rose passed by, he rode a horse and shot an arrow, and met Vucevic's defense with a throw.

Rose threw the ball very easily, and the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air.

"Shh!"

Hollow into the network!

The red light on the timer came on, and Rose made a buzzer-beating floater to bring the first quarter to a perfect end.

48: 20.

While the Nets scored 48 points in a single quarter, they also led the Magic by 28 points, which really shocked the fans at the scene! ! (End of chapter)
