Basketball Fanatic: Genius Is on the Left

No accident, the Knicks performed the first attack, even the Celtics were no exception, so without the slightest panic, they retreated directly without giving the Knicks any chance.

Barkley, who saw this scene, complained: "Maybe Zuo Li should lose the jump ball in time, otherwise the opening ball will become more and more difficult to hit."

In the first round of the retreat, the Celtics resorted to a big move - zone defense!

Moreover, it is a 2-3 zone defense with extreme restraint and breakthrough. Perkins is in the middle, and Pierce and Rondo are on the line. From this point of view, it is rushing to the left.

"Oh, the zone defense, we all know that Zuo Li's breakthrough is unsolvable. No matter what, it is impossible for Perkins to keep up with a 216 cm athlete with super-class athletic ability. The two teams played four games in the regular season. He averaged five fouls per game, and one was sent off as proof," Barkley explained.

"They were able to win the first three games of the regular season because of Garnett. The presence of FG made the inside line defense very strong, which stopped Zuoli's pace, but in the fourth game without Garnett, they were smashed by Zuoli. , what kind of iron blood, what kind of brutality, it's no use if you can't keep up."

"Yes, obviously the Celtics have also learned from their experience. They directly defended the zone defense, which is to abolish Zuoli's strong force. Now let's see what the Knicks will choose. It's running out of time!"

When Smith spoke, time passed quickly, and the Knicks generals on the court obviously didn't expect the Celtics to make a big move in the first round. This was obviously prepared, which directly disrupted the Nicks. deployment.

Originally, the Knicks wanted to play the inside line first, Zuo Li and Randolph went in and chiseled hard, and the outside line was lined up ready to meet, but under the zone defense, the inside line was not easy to enter, the big baby Davis had nothing else, and the weight was enough. , If Randolph is a **** bear, then he is a polar bear. With a weight of 135kg, Randolph can be called a crouching dragon and a phoenix, and his height is also 206kg. These two people collide with one another like two meat mountains.

On Zuo Li's side, Perkins is also not easy to deal with. He obviously does not want Zuo Li to enter the penalty area easily.

So the Knicks passed the ball on the outside 7 times. At the end, the time was not enough. Dragic took the ball and made a strong three-pointer, not even a pick-and-roll.

As a result, the ball went directly into the net, the pocket whistle sounded, and the buzzer was a three-pointer!

Dragic was stunned after he made the shot, and ran back in a circle full of surprise.

"This is unreasonable... ah ah ah, just go in and go, then it's okay, the Knicks are open!"

It is also thanks to this fairy ball that Chinese fans have once again witnessed the magical quotations of Zhang Heli and Zhang's guidance.

D'Antoni off the court had already picked up the tactical board. He didn't expect the Celtics to use zone defense, because they rarely used zone defense this season, and the last 7 games were useless, so the Knicks would use zone defense. The preparations were not sufficient, and as a result, the tactical board in his hand was put down again for this three-pointer.

It doesn't matter whether it is reasonable or not, the goal is the most important.

And now the pressure is on the Celtics side.

On the offensive side, as the Knicks tactically analyzed, the Celtics' offensive tactics are not very sophisticated. It is only black and hard with rough tonnage technology. Rondo can only cooperate with Pierce. Pierce makes a half-step shot from the free throw line.

3-2.

But on the defensive end, the Green Army was uncomfortable.

Everyone knows that the zone defense is all about breakthroughs and singles on the inside, but the defense on the outside is obviously weak. The best way to break the zone is to make a three-pointer. No position is given to you, the outside line is to let you shoot. If you can't make it, it will be finished until you make a shot.

The Celtics also analyzed the tactics of the Knicks’ dozens of games. The Knicks have not made many three-pointers this season. After all, except for Novak, no one else can be a stable three-point shooter. It’s just that he can shoot, the highest hit rate is about 40%, and the average three-point shot per game ranks 10th in the league.

On the contrary, the inside score is the highest in the league, and the second score is also the first in the league. The horror is the offensive rebound. The Knicks averaged 8.8 times per game, three more than the second place.

As for the breakthrough success rate and breakthrough conversion rate, they are also among the top three in the league, which is enough to show that the Knicks are an inside team.

So Rivers practiced the zone defense for 2 days, the purpose is to give the Knicks a dismay, win this first away game, and the series will take the absolute initiative.

However, the Knicks made the shot when they came up, which was very uncomfortable.

The Celtics refused to accept it, so the zone defense attacked again, and this time the Knicks were obviously prepared. point.

Again!

"Okay, the Knicks feel like they're hitting two in a row, can the Celtics still be able to defend this zone?" Barkley said ~www.readwn.com~ really can't keep up.

Although two hits in a row doesn't mean that the next shot can be made, but the consecutive hits prove that the Knicks feel online tonight. If you don't stop it at this time and wait for the Knicks to make shots, then this game will be over. Can't fight.

This is the nba. The fact that the old master was beaten to death by random punches really exists. Even the best defense team will be shot crazy one day.

So the Celtics immediately changed to man-to-man, but Zuo Li seized the opportunity, swooped directly from the top of the arc, and rushed in to complete the first dunk of the game!

"A good shot, this is the danger of changing the defense. It's easy to get confused. It's extremely easy to grab an opportunity in this level of game, and Zuoli grabs it." Smith commented.

However, in the next round, just after Rondo assisted Ray Allen and scored a three-pointer, the Green Army stabilized its position, the tough defense came again, and the fierce hand-to-hand combat began.

This is the strength of the Green Army in memory. The team with the best defense in the past three years is well-deserved.

Zuo Li encountered a brutal defense in the interior, and Perkins obviously used his milk strength. Zuo Li did not try hard, and turned to the bottom corner. Larry Hughes took the ball and shot a three-pointer again!

"I hit it again! Damn it!" Zuo Li gave a thumbs up this time. Three points from three hits. Could this be the rhythm tonight? !

Zuo Li was right. Throughout the first quarter, Zuo Li felt what it was like to be outrageous. He made 6 of 8 three-pointers in a single quarter.

The iron barrel defense that the Celtics are best at has not been played, but it has to be said that the giants are still strong, especially Pierce. The mid-range shooting in this period is really stable and ruthless. Ray Allen's three-pointer, even if the Knicks made six three-pointers in a single quarter, only had a six-point disadvantage.
