The NBA's opening sling against Chris Paul

Chapter 128 Three Guards Lineup

Chapter 128 Three Guard Lineup

The Celtics' next attack seemed very patient, no longer obsessed with playing fast, and Rondo's sophisticated way of handling the ball won the unanimous appreciation of the two commentators.

For several consecutive rounds, he completed the opportunity to shoot open shots in the non-stop passing and cutting inside and outside. The Grizzlies' clamping at this point is not very ideal.

"Lee!" Hollins made a gesture towards Li Ming, signaling to give the distance, let Rondo, who is not good at shooting, shoot, and mainly limit his passing routes.

This tactic is mature and feasible. It can infinitely magnify the shortcoming of Rondo's inability to shoot. No matter who he plays the pick-and-roll with, he will stick to another person, regardless of Rondo on the outside.

"Come on, buddy, let's try a three-pointer." Li Ming and Bayless winked, and the two-pointers stood still with horns, waiting for Rondo's shot from the outside.

After hesitating for a long time, Rondo still passed the ball, but Wallace's shot timed out, which was a violation.

Li Ming got the money and ran to the opponent's basket, and started to slow down one step inside the free throw line. Rondo faced him head-on.

The height and weight of the two are almost the same, so it can be said that they are equal opponents.Li Ming leaned back tentatively, Rondo took advantage of the situation and took half a step back, but Li Ming didn't use his strength.

"Rajon has a lot of defensive experience. In the past few years, he has been with Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. He has learned a lot of defensive skills on the perimeter. The two seniors can be said to have taught each other. Lee played him in that position. It's a bit difficult, let's see what happens next."

Li Ming's height is 191, and his weight is 210 pounds. Physically, he is not at a disadvantage. I saw him nimbly moving his body back and forth under the basket with small steps, first to the left and then to the right.

"Which side is it?" Rondo was a little confused by him, but his body remained in front of him.

At this moment, Li Ming suddenly stuck his leg behind him and turned around cleverly. Rondo immediately caught up and jumped up with all his strength.

"Bingo!!" At this moment, he was fooled. Li Ming once again used his dreamy footsteps to score the ball like a butterfly flower, and Wallace and Rondo under the basket were shaken one after another.

71 to 71, the two teams tied again.

"This ball has a bit of Olajuwon's shadow. Now his footsteps are very popular. Not only inside players like Howard are learning from him, but even outside players like Kobe and Baron Davis are learning from him." The footsteps of the big dream Olajuwon are indeed proud of the league.

A small defender like Li Ming has a lot of options in the interior after learning this kind of footwork, but Li Ming has no system to learn from him, it should be a built-in function in the system.

Jeff Green faced Gay again at the top of the arc. Gay's long arm was always covering his face, and he didn't have a chance to shoot immediately.

Can only put the ball down, looking for opportunities while dribbling, Gerald Wallace stepped forward to pick and roll, Green used his screen to come to the free throw line and stand up.

"Don't even think about it!!" Gay yelled and slapped his ball away, chanting words non-stop.

However, the referee's whistle goes, yes, the ball is fouled, and Gay's movement is too big, and it hits the opponent's face.

Guy tried to explain to the referee that this was a joint action, and even tugged on the referee's sleeve. The referee thought he was annoying and gave him a "T"

Well, give the other party a point for nothing.

"Forget it, Rudy, you've defended very well, don't think about it anymore, and defend quickly." Originally, the team fouled less than four times. Originally, the opponent just needed to serve again, because Gay's bad Calm lost a point in vain, the ball still belongs to others.

Rondo directly cooperated with Wallace in an alley-oop. The strength and angle of the ball were impeccable.

Rondo's data when serving the sideline ball shows that the probability of directly converting into a score is the highest among all guards in the league.

This means that he has a lot of balls lobped to the inside and scored directly, just like the one just now.Arthur was a little immature in the basket, and he couldn't see his tricks, so he taught him a lesson again.

Coach Hollins on the sidelines made a pause gesture.

Sure enough, after returning from the timeout, Zach Randolph returned to the court, and Marc Gasol was with him. The Grizzlies once again offered the strongest black and white double bear lineup.

Under Xiaojia's cover, Du Lin immediately made his third three-pointer in the field. He made five three-pointers tonight and hit three. The efficiency is still very high.

But his shortcomings are also obvious. As a shooter, his shots are too slow and he prepares too much. This habit is not good, which affects his growth. There are too many opportunities to shoot the ball in his hands at the first time. It all ends up being a pass.

Coach Hollins is clear about his shortcoming, but now he doesn't have mature shooters like Mike Miller and Ray Allen to replace him, so he can only let it go.

Fortunately, Xiao Jia's body is big enough to cover his shots.

In a fast break, Wallace was blocked by Xiaojia for his layup. Xiaojia's playing made the Grizzlies' inside lane a no-fly zone again.

"Mark, don't go so deep, pull to the upper line." Li Ming and Gasol were shouting tactics.

Rondo was by his side, and he was very concerned about the opponent's shooting, but at the same time as Li Ming and Gasol shouted loudly, Li Ming flicked his wrist lightly, and the ball fell into the open Du Lin's hands again.

A golden light flashed over the North Shore Garden Arena, and Kenyon Dooling hit his fourth three-pointer of the night.

"This kid has become the biggest beneficiary today. Both Zach on the inside and Lee on the outside are being watched closely, so his chances will naturally increase." Shaq O'Neal commented on the situation on the field.

Yes, most opponents will focus on those famous players, and the opportunities for role players will naturally increase.

Rondo was not bad, and immediately used Wallace's cover to make a backhand layup and also scored.Li Ming was entangled by Bradley next to him and was distracted by this ball, allowing Rondo to seize the opportunity and sneak attack one.

"Go left, left, don't get too entangled with him." Coach Hollins kept urging Bayless from the sidelines to pass halftime quickly, and don't get too entangled with Bradley.

This Bradley's defense is really good, and he has the shadow of Tony Allen, but for some reason today, the latter didn't get a chance to play for 1 minute. I don't know if it is because of his injury.

The two commentators are also surprised about Tony Allen. After all, he is the core of the Grizzlies' perimeter defense, but since Li Ming's worth, his playing time has shrunk. It seems that Coach Hollins prefers to use three Lineup of defenders.

And Tony Allen lacked accuracy on the outside, so he was abandoned.
