He just played basketball and became the chosen one. - Chapter 181

c181 : The birth of a super defensive team? 10 points in a single quarter

The Lakers acquired Pau Gasol, which is undoubtedly another deal that can change the league’s structure.

Kobe met the second noble man in his career, and the most beautiful love story in NBA history will begin to be written in Los Angeles.

Odom + Bynum + Gasol, Kobe will lead the Lakers’ top three to open the second peak chapter of his career!

It’s just that in this history, it’s still unclear whether Kobe can still dominate the West like he did in the original history.

Because Ryan is still eyeing the No. 1 seat in the Western Conference!

As AK47 is about to come back, Ryan is full of confidence in regaining the first place in the Western Conference.

However, AK’s comeback must be gradual.

Bird will not start him immediately, and will not let him play for 20 or 30 minutes immediately.

After all, AK hasn’t competed for a long time, so he still needs to be lubricated before using it, and he can’t just fuck him to the end.

Therefore, Ryan must withstand the pressure for a period of time before the AK47 is fully in place.

On the other hand, in the first three games of February, after acquiring Gasol, the Lakers really won consecutive games.

Because Gasol also needed time to prepare and lubricate, his sister-in-law did not play in the first two games after joining the Lakers.

But Kobe, who was inspired, performed extremely well in games against the Raptors and Wizards.

Against the Kings, Kobe Bryant scored 46 points. The most important thing was that he made 19 of 28 from the field, with a shooting percentage of 67.9%!

Against the Wizards, Kobe only took 15 shots and scored 30 points. It’s not because there are many free throws, but because Kobe made 10 of 15 shots and hit 66.7%.

Facts have proved that now that Kobe can eat enough dumplings, even if his sister-in-law does not personally participate in the battle, Kobe will still be full of energy.

After all, Kobe now has something to look forward to!

After Gasol joined the Lakers, Kobe only wanted to secure the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference and then legitimately win the championship.

He will never miss any opportunity to improve his record!

With such a beautiful foreign wife at home, what man can’t work harder?

As soon as Kobe saw the quiet sister-in-law on the bench, he was filled with motivation!

Finally, in the game against the Nets, the Lakers replaced the long-awaited Gasol!

Now Kobe doesn’t have to work hard alone. The couple won’t be tired at all when they work together.

In the game against the New Jersey Nets, Kobe, who shot more than 60% from the field for two consecutive games, only made 3 of 13 in this game and only scored 6 points with a 23.1% shooting rate.

That’s right, 6 points!

But the Lakers still slaughtered the Nets under such circumstances, because Gasol made 10 of 15 shots in his debut and scored 24 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists with extremely high efficiency!

Since the deal was reached, the Lakers have won three consecutive games!

And in this game with the Nets, Gasol’s role was fully utilized.

When Kobe Bryant couldn’t even score 8 points in a single game because of his hip stretch, the Lakers now have a second star who can step up and solve the problem!

This was something Lakers fans couldn’t even imagine before.

Gasol’s arrival gave this team a double insurance!

Gasol’s Lakers debut was perfect, and all Los Angeles fans fell in love with the Spanish giant almost overnight.

This seems to be another lineup like the Celtics that can exert 100% of its strength without any need for break-in!

The Los Angeles media has just celebrated the New Year. Now in Los Angeles, even a three-year-old child has learned Lu Xun’s phrase: “The Lakers are champions!”

And when the Lakers were winning consecutive games, the Nuggets certainly didn’t fall behind.

In the February competition, AK47 began to appear one after another.

In the first three games, the playing time has gradually increased.

The first game took 10 minutes to warm up.

In the second game, I spent 15 minutes getting a feel for it.

The third game can already be played for 20 minutes, and the length is considered to be passing. Then why are you laughing? How many people want to play for 20 minutes but can’t!

And in these three games, Bird tried many uses of AK. In the end, I found that it was most appropriate to let AK directly play the fourth position.

If AK is allowed to play the second position and Ryan controls the ball directly, then the Nuggets can really only count on Ryan to throw the ball.

What’s the difference between this Nima and last season’s Cavaliers?

But if AK is allowed to play the fourth position and Monta Ellis continues to start, then the team’s offense can be guaranteed even if the defense is stronger!

Although AK cannot hold the powerful fourth position, there are only a few teams with strong scoring ability at the fourth position.

Most of the time, there is no problem at all with AK playing the starting four position.

And when AK, Ryan, Artest and Ben are on the court at the same time, it is self-evident how terrifying the Nuggets’ defense is.

This may be the first team in NBA history to have so many first-team defensive players in the starting five!

In the third game of February, after the game against the Heat, Wade joked in an interview:

“To be honest, when Kirilenko, Ryan, Artest and Ben were on the court at the same time, I couldn’t even find the frame anywhere! There was no possibility of their defense being penetrated!”

Wade is not blindly bragging about his opponent, it is his real experience that he cannot see the basket!

These guys are too strong whether they are assisting in defense or alone in defense!

Wade would often be completely surrounded by people wearing Nuggets jerseys as soon as he accelerated to the free throw line.

Like a little sheep being hunted by wolves.

Because their defensive capabilities are too strong and they are not afraid of losing their position, the Nuggets’ flanking attacks are often very decisive and fierce!

In the game against the Heat, AK played for 20 minutes, and the four of them were not even on the court for 10 minutes at the same time.

But even in this situation, Wade was so desperate.

He really couldn’t imagine how abnormal the Nuggets’ defense would be when AK officially entered the starting lineup and when those four people were on the court for a long time.

However, most fans still did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

All eyes are on the Lakers, and all the media are discussing how Kobe and Gasol are a match made in heaven.

Nuggets? It’s impossible for them to catch up with the Lakers anyway, so what else is there to focus on?

However, something happened that caught all Los Angeles fans off guard.

Gasol’s fourth game with the Lakers was against the Hawks, who had a record of only 21 wins and 24 losses.

After merging, Kobe and Gasol actually lost this originally unsuspicious game!

In the last game, Gasol has proved that even if Kobe Bryant pulls, he can still lead the team forward.

So in this game, Gasol gave a new possibility – if Kobe and I both pull the ball at the same time, how should you respond?

Before today’s game started, there were media reports that Kobe and Gasol were getting along very well. They studied the game video together and discussed it late into the night. The Lakers were bound to win consecutive games to the end.

But it turns out that it’s not possible to communicate too deeply this night! Harmful!

You still have to go to bed early and get up early to stay healthy!

In this game, Gasol was sleepwalking and only scored 12 points on 5 of 14 shots. As an inside shooter, his shooting percentage was only 35.5%.

But as the iron king of Staples, how could Kobe allow Gasol to establish his authority as soon as he came to the team? When it comes to blacksmithing, I am Staples’ No. 1!

So Kobe made 4 of 16 shots, a shooting percentage of only 25%, and only scored 11 points in the game! Tell Gasol, who is the real Iron King of Los Angeles!

What more can be said? Kobe and Gasol are true brothers.

What is a person who is willing to hang out with you after class if not a true brother?

On the other hand, for the Hawks, Joe scored 28 points alone and Josh Smith had 17 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists.

Those who don’t know better think that the Eagles are the championship team.

After this game, people suddenly remembered the existence of the Nuggets.

Once again, the Lakers lost and the Nuggets had a chance to narrow the victory gap.

The Lakers were upset. As long as the Nuggets can win the next game, they can narrow the winning gap to only 2 games left!

But consider that in January, every time the Lakers pulled, the Nuggets would also lose.

Therefore, Lakers fans still hold on to a sense of luck.

What’s more, the Nuggets’ next opponent is not a weakling.

But the Toronto Raptors led by Anthony!

If the Lakers beat the Hawks, they might lose. If the Nuggets beat the Raptors, why can’t they lose?

This team, which always gets off the mark at critical moments, will definitely fall apart this time too!

In fact, even Kobe thinks so.

Although he lost the game, he spread his hands at the press conference after the game:

“Ryan catching up with us? Even if he wins the next game, we are still two games ahead of the Nuggets.

Moreover, he may not win the next game. ”

The reporter quickly reminded:

“You may not know much about it, but with the Nuggets, Kirilenko has returned from injury.

Kirilenko played 20 minutes in the last game, during which the Nuggets locked Wade up.

Before Kirilenko returned, the Nuggets’ defense was already the second-best in the league.

After the Russians return, their defense will only become more terrifying, and they are likely to surpass the Celtics and become the league’s number one defensive team!

Do you really think it’s impossible for the Nuggets to catch up with the Lakers? ”

Kobe replied calmly and simply: “No way! No matter how strong their defense is, they can’t let their opponents score less than 10 points in one quarter! Unless their defense can be this strong, they won’t be able to win consecutively all the way to the Western Conference. First.”

Of course, Kobe is not underestimating Ryan and the Nuggets. He just feels that the Nuggets cannot win continuously.

The last time he played against the Nuggets, Kobe lost. But in that game, Kobe and Ryan scored 40 points each, and the Nuggets didn’t win the game until the last minute.

Therefore, Kobe admits that Ryan is very strong, but the Nuggets are not too strong yet, and they cannot have a long winning streak.

The Lakers, who were evenly matched with the Nuggets before, now have added Gasol, and are definitely stronger.

How can he chase the Nuggets?

Yes, Kirilenko is indeed back. But Kirilenko has only just returned, and it is not certain that he will be able to regain 10% of his strength.

Therefore, Kobe once again emphasized: “Today’s loss was just an accident. We will get back on track soon. First in the Western Conference, this year belongs only to Los Angeles! I promise!”

The battle for first place in the Western Conference between the Lakers and Nuggets has undoubtedly entered a fierce stage.

Now, everyone is staring at the Nuggets and Raptors, wanting to see if the Nuggets can take this opportunity to win and bite the Lakers.

However, the Raptors have performed very well recently.

Anthony’s touch has been very good in recent games, with 30+ points in 6 consecutive games.

In addition, the reason why the Raptors are in excellent form recently is because they exchanged Caron Butler from the Wizards for Caron Butler, a man with a darker background than Gua Ge.

This fierce man who had been in the detention center 15 times before the age of 15, when the Raptors traded him, people joked that the Raptors would change their name to the “Toronto Godfathers.”

It is simply a gathering place for NBA gangsters.

I thought Butler and Anthony would have a falling out in Toronto, but they didn’t know that after they joined forces, they played really well in the game.

Although Butler doesn’t have too many honors, he is definitely a player with a correct attitude.

In the morning training hall in Toronto, Angua can always see Butler practicing.

Dissatisfied with his mid-range shooting, he took 100,000 jump shots last offseason, 1,000 a day.

For him, the biggest challenge is not to stay in his comfort zone. He demands himself like a soldier and never relaxes.

Putting it on the court, Butler’s attitude is nothing to say.

The Raptors traded for him because of his defense.

Once you meet him face to face, you will feel as if you have strayed into the territory of the gang. Butler is staring at you with malicious eyes, and you will feel scared before attacking.

Butler’s ability on the defensive end can just make up for Anthony’s shortcomings in this area.

In short, the Raptors, who are gaining momentum, will never sit still and become a stepping stone for the Nuggets to pursue the Lakers.

They will definitely fight hard and prove that they have a place in the East.

Nuggets fans all feel that the team is unlucky. Why did they encounter the fierce Raptors at this critical moment?

If this was against Seattle’s handsome man, wouldn’t it be a sure win, and wouldn’t it be a sure win narrowing the gap in victory.

But Ryan is already used to it. Ever since the last time he encountered bad luck and bloodshed when he came to the city, this kind of thing of “always encountering obstacles at the last step” has been happening.

No matter what, there is no reason for a truly strong person to pick an opponent.

No matter who it was, Ryan would run over their bodies.

Even high school classmates don’t show mercy!

In this way, the Raptors received so much attention for the first time this season.

Although the Raptors’ record this season is destined to be unable to surpass the Cavaliers and Celtics, they will have to work harder to even surpass the Pistons.

But the traffic of the Nuggets and Lakers is really too great, and the “win-and-slot battle” between these two teams is also attracting much attention.

The Raptors can be said to have benefited from the Lakers and Nuggets.

Anthony hasn’t had this feeling of being in the spotlight for a long time since he was assassinated in the North.

Before playing today, Caron Butler also encouraged everyone:

“The Nuggets have lost 13 games this season, and one-third of the teams in the league have beaten them.

See, they’re not invulnerable!

Come on guys, respect is earned with your own hands!

As long as we persist to the end, we will definitely have hope of winning!

Tell those bastards this neighborhood is our place!

If you want to make a fortune on our territory, there is no way! ”

Those who didn’t know this locker room talk thought it was a Hey Gang gathering.

But don’t tell me, every Raptors player is really excited.

Caron Butler brings more than just 20.3 points per game and defense to the Raptors.

And a searing locker room atmosphere.

Anthony is not the type of person who is the leader of the locker room. He has a strong aura of gangsters, and talks about “brotherhood and loyalty” every day.

But Angua cannot really motivate his teammates.

Caron Butler is different. He has a martial arts atmosphere and adds a bit of leadership qualities.

Moreover, Butler knows when to speak and when not to speak.

He won’t always nag in the ears of his teammates like a mother, but when the team needs encouragement, he will never be absent!

His arrival has made the Raptors a more cohesive team!

When the two parties entered the venue, Anthony and Ryan couldn’t help laughing as soon as they saw each other, and then hugged each other tightly.

Ryan and Angua have maintained a good personal relationship over the years. Last summer, Ryan, Anthony and Wade went to the beach to play banana boats.

At that time, Ryan accidentally fell into the water, but Angua jumped down and fished Ryan out regardless of his own safety.

However, both of them knew that their past emotions had to be temporarily put on hold on the basketball court:

“Ryan, good brother, I believe you can definitely be No. 1 in the Western Conference.

This is a 100% thing.

Who is Kobe? You only have three more rings than me, but you still dare to point fingers at you?

But that’s it.

Sorry, today, in Toronto, the winning gap between you and the Lakers cannot be narrowed!

You have to chase your goal of being No. 1 in the Western Conference somewhere else! ”

Ryan was speechless. You really can speak your mind, and you have “just three more rings than me.”

After Angua finished speaking, Ryan just patted him on the back:

“Just be mentally prepared.”

“Ah? What kind of mental preparation?”

“It’s just that your score may be a little low today.”

Angua was stunned for a moment, then laughed:

“Hahahahaha, Ryan, who are you trying to scare?

After Caron Butler joined, we were the top three scoring teams in the league!

I am no longer what I used to be with Ryan, I am fifth in the scoring list this year!

You can’t rely on defense to contain us, let’s have a good fight! ”

Ryan smiled and waved his hand: “Anyway, just be mentally prepared.”

After that, Ryan turned and returned to his own half.

Angua pouted, Ryan still loves to pretend so much!

In fact, for the sake of being a good friend, Ryan really didn’t pretend to Angua.

He just gave Angua a friendly reminder.

The Raptors’ score today may be really low!

After simple greetings, the game started immediately.

Kobe was also watching the game at home, hoping to see Ryan make another last-minute upset with his own eyes!

The starting five for the Raptors are Jose Calderon, Caron Butler, Anthony, Italian No. 1 pick Barriani and white center Nestor Norwich.

That’s right, except for center Nestor Norwich, four of the Raptors’ starting lineup are all three-pointers!

Calderon shot 42.9% from three-point range this season, Butler 35.7%, Anthony 35.4%, and Barriani, an insider, also shot 34.5% of three-pointers.

This season’s Raptors are the second most accurate three-point shooting team in the league, second only to the Suns.

This is also the reason why their scores are among the best.

In this era, it is quite rare for a team’s starter to have such a long shooting range.

This is where the Raptors find it difficult to defend.

Whenever one or two of them feel excited, you don’t dare to let them go.

If you don’t let it go, you can only allow Anthony or Butler to play alone without daring to flank or even help defend.

And if all the starters feel pumped up, then you can only pray to God.

Angua is full of confidence and believes that the Raptors, who are in good condition, will definitely inflict heavy damage on Ryan!

But soon, people discovered that the Nuggets’ starter was even more terrifying!

Today, Bird finally put Kirilenko, who has returned from injury, into the starting lineup!

The Nuggets’ starting lineup is similar to that of the Raptors. Four of their five starting players are good at the same thing.

But what they are good at is defense!

Previously, Kirilenko, Ryan, Artest and Ben were on the court together for only ten minutes, and they made Wade autistic.

Today, AK47 is directly launched, which is equivalent to the Nuggets who are armed to the teeth, and they also have an AK.

No matter how big a raptor is, it needs to be beaten to a pulp!

Looking at the Nuggets’ starting lineup, Kobe curled his lips.

This is just to scare people, Kirilenko is not in 100% condition at all!

Caron Butler also comforted everyone: “Just continue to play according to our original plan. There is no airtight defense in this world!”

Just like that, the game begins.

The Raptors had no idea what they would experience today.

Ben easily won the ball from Nestor Norwich, and Ryan encountered Butler’s defense after halftime.

Ryan’s first shot was relatively casual. He took a step forward and then made a direct pull.

But under Butler’s active defense, Ryan made the first shot.

Raptors coach Sam Mitchell also clapped and shouted: “Good defense!”

Barriani looked up after grabbing the rebound and saw

The entire Nuggets team has returned to half-court!

This retreat speed was faster than the British and French’s Dunkirk victory charge.

It is difficult for all teams to find counterattack opportunities to easily score against the Nuggets!

However, the Raptors themselves are also a positional team, and they have the ability to penetrate the opponent’s defense in positional offense.

Calderon slowly controlled the ball past halftime, but just after halftime, he was directly pressed by Ellis.

Calderon then called Barriani to come to the pick-and-roll. Two people with shooting ability played the pick-and-roll, which was a very big threat.

Because the pick-and-roller can choose to bounce out or slide down, and it prevents the opponent from easily flanking.

But after the pick-and-roll, Monta Ellis and Kirilenko suddenly chose to double-team Calderon’s ball-holding point!

Although Barriani had an amazing shooting touch among big men, he was still let go!

Seeing this, Bariani immediately jumped to one side and was ready to catch the ball in his favorite position.

Although Calderon encountered a double attack, he is a European point guard with solid basic skills after all.

Therefore, he still passed the ball to Bariani steadily in the double attack.

At this time, the AK47 and Monta Ellis were too far away from Bariani, and there was no way they could pounce back immediately.

The Italian No. 1 pick got an open shot, and he shot decisively, hoping to severely punish the Nuggets’ reckless flanking attack with a goal!

However, when Bariani took the shot, Ryan jumped out immediately and helped Kirilenko block the hole!

Because Ryan’s defense is extremely fast, coupled with his extremely long arms, and the large talent fragments that increase the bullet speed when blocking shots.

Therefore, Ryan’s shot not only interfered with Barriani, but also directly blocked the shot of the Italian No. 1 pick!

“Beautiful help defense, Ryan directly blocked the Raptors’ three-point shot!

This time on defense, the Nuggets’ attack was extremely aggressive and gave Bariani a very large opening.

But it turns out that as long as the defense is fast enough, you can do whatever you want on the defensive end!

No matter how big the gap is, the Nuggets can block it instantly! ”

Jeff Van Gundy is obviously very interested in defense, and the Nuggets’ defense did not disappoint him, a defensive enthusiast.

After Ryan completed the block, he immediately chased the basketball and passed the ball to AK47, who had already sprinted across half court.

Kirilenko smashed the button with both hands with great force, completely declaring that he was back in the starting lineup!

As soon as they came up, the Nuggets blocked a three-point shot by the Raptors.

Raptors coach Sam Mitchell curled his lips, Damn it, the Nuggets pressed and attacked like this from the beginning. They were going to kill them right from the start!

The game continued and the Raptors started their second offense.

In this round, Ellis still pressed hard as soon as Calderon passed the half court.

The ferocity of this oppression even reminds people of the New York Knicks in the Pat Riley era!

It’s so cruel and unreasonable!

Just don’t let the Raptors relax for a moment!

Calderon continued to call for screens. With his mediocre athletic ability, it was difficult for him to organize an offense under such strong pressure.

This time, it was Anthony who went to set up a cover for Calderon.

Angua thought, with their offensive deterrence, the Nuggets would not dare to attack Calderon directly, right?

They still have to show me some respect!

result

This time, Ryan and Ellis still directly flanked Calderon, the ball-holding point, and threw Anthony directly aside.

Angua:.

Damn it Ryan, you’ve learned how to play this trick of playing with two dragons and pearls now, haven’t you?

Come here to guard against me!

I’m really a big threat!

Calderon passed the ball very reluctantly this time, but he still got the ball to Anthony.

The moment Anthony caught the basketball, Artest teleported to Angua and completed the defense change in the blink of an eye!

Of course, Anthony knows how difficult Artest is to deal with, so Angua has no enthusiasm to beat Artest in isolation.

Seeing Artest coming to help defend him, Angua immediately passed the ball to Caron Butler!

Butler is definitely open!

No matter how fast a team changes positions, as long as they attack from a flank, there will always be an opening!

Anthony did play very smart this time, but the Nuggets would not have thought of the defensive loopholes that Anthony could think of?

While Ryan went to flank Calderon, Artest went to cover Anthony.

The AK47 has also moved towards Caron Butler!

The entire defense of the Nuggets moves the whole body with one move, making full use of everyone’s strong defensive abilities!

Kirilenko burst out suddenly, catching Caron Butler off guard.

As soon as Butler touched the basketball, Kirilenko cut it off and completed the steal!

This time, Kirilenko pushed forward himself and then accurately fed the ball to Ryan with a ground pass.

Although Kirilenko didn’t score much, he can come back and the Nuggets’ offense will still improve.

After all, AK’s passing is not like Artest and Ben, which always requires Ryan to make various difficult catching actions.

After receiving the basketball, Ryan jumped up inside the free throw line, performed a windmill dunk, and smashed the ball into the basket beautifully!

The action of the windmill dunk was not difficult for Ryan, but it shocked the fans at the scene. Ryan’s windmill dunk was not only a flat head, but also almost a flat chin!

The last guy with such abnormal physical fitness and such comprehensive skills.

Who else but Maikou! ?

Ryan landed firmly and then gave Kirilenko a thumbs up.

Kirilenko’s first game since his return, he made a strong presence at the beginning of the game!

Dunks, cover steals, assists, they all work together.

Artest was stunned for a few seconds, no. It’s okay to have a big boss, but now he wants to compete with me for my favor?

Oh, the competition in this Denver harem is so fierce!

At this point, the Raptors have failed to attack in two consecutive rounds.

Moreover, once he was blocked and once he was intercepted, it was a complete failure.

Jeff Van Gundy sighed. It seemed that after the Nuggets’ perfect defense in these two rounds, he felt that the Raptors were completely finished today!

The Nuggets’ defense is no longer a question of whether it is good or not.

But luxury!

What is luxury?

Bird can unscrupulously use excessive flanking to force the opponent to hastily play the ball and force the opponent to make mistakes. There is no need to worry that such excessive flanking will lead to loss of position, because the team’s defense ability is too strong.

This is called luxury!

After AK47 returned and joined the starting lineup, the Nuggets’ defensive resources are simply too rich!

This is like a rich man who doesn’t even think about whether buying a car for millions is worth it, because he doesn’t care at all about the millions he spends!

Bird is the rich man on the defensive end. He doesn’t care whether it’s worth double-teaming Calderon, because he still has strong enough defensive resources to deal with the next series of defenses!

Ryan goes to flank Calderon? No problem, Artest can still make up for Anthony.

Artest and Anthony were both sent away? It still doesn’t matter, the Nuggets still have Kirilenko!

Van Gundy is simply impressed. With this lineup, even a dog on a leash can become a strong defensive team on the bench!

Sam Smith also wiped his sweat, thinking that the Raptors’ three-pointer would prevent the Nuggets from double-teaming or even assisting in defense.

As a result, they attacked with impunity!

But can such a radical defensive strategy last for an entire game?

That is naturally impossible. With such a large-scale flanking attack, rotation, and replacement, even if Ryan can withstand it, others cannot.

But Bird just wanted to do an experiment today to see how well this lineup can defend its opponents using this most extreme defensive method.

So as soon as the first quarter started, the strangulation mode started immediately!

The Raptors failed to attack twice in a row, which made Anthony a little anxious.

As an offensive team, we can’t be prevented from scoring even a single goal in the opener, right?

So, Anthony asked for the ball directly after halftime this time.

Now, the Nuggets shouldn’t be double-teaming again, right?

However, things went counterproductive. As soon as Anthony received the basketball, he saw Monta Ellis immediately approaching him!

The Nuggets’ double attack is not against Calderon, but against everyone here!

Angua took a step back, and then suddenly changed direction to break through, trying to use the “retreat to advance” method to dribble to break through the attack.

But again, everyone knows the theoretical knowledge of this trick, but not everyone can use it.

Angua’s physical fitness is not bad, but compared with the likes of Ryan and James, it is far from good.

There was no way he could break through the flanking attack with speed!

In the pinch, Anthony suddenly stopped the ball and barely passed the ball to Calderon who was left open.

But just like the two rounds just now, the Nuggets’ rotation was too fast.

Every time, the Raptors just passed the ball and the next guy just caught the basketball.

The opportunity for an open seat has disappeared.

As soon as Calderon received the ball, he was blocked by Artest who came over from defense.

So, the Raptors almost moved the ball around.

Anthony to Calderon, Calderon to Butler.

As soon as Butler received the ball, AK made up for it, so he could only continue to find an opening and gave the ball to Barriani.

The Nuggets are not afraid of leaving their opponents open at all because they have the ability to block that open space in an instant.

Barriani received the basketball in the right corner and thought he could finally take the shot with peace of mind.

result

Daben actually pounced on him!

Raptors coach Sam Mitchell was confused. Isn’t this expansion of defense too big? The center jumped out to interfere with the three-point shot?

Big Ben would rather lose the basket than come out to save a three-pointer? Is this crazy? ?

I don’t know if I’m crazy or not, but seeing that ferocious afro rushing towards me, Bariani, a second grader, was really panicked.

He felt that if he continued to hold the ball like this, he would be directly hit to death by Ben!

So he hurriedly passed the ball to Nesternović inside, but because he passed it too quickly, the quality of the pass was poor and the ball was passed too short.

Nesternovic had to bend down to catch the basketball.

The biggest taboo when passing the ball to a big man is to pass the ball too short.

Because by the time he bends down to get the ball and straightens up again, the opportunity is often gone.

Nesternovic found his chance gone when he caught the basketball, straightened himself up, turned and dunked.

Because Ryan has rushed back to the penalty area and blocked the last hole!

Although Nestornovic is a big center, Ryan jumped even higher after rushing in. Finally, with a wave of one hand, Nesternovic took off and dunked on the spot, knocking Nestorovic to the ground with the ball!

Ryan staged another classic moment when the big center was bleeding!

Ryan defends Anthony from the outside to running back inside to block the center. The Nuggets’ rotation to fill positions directly formed a closed loop, leaving no chance for the Raptors in the end!

Van Gundy was drooling with envy, otherwise why would the Nuggets have rich defensive resources?

Ryan, Artest, AK and Ben all have the ability to defend both the outside and inside at the same time!

So no matter how they rotate to fill positions, the Nuggets will never be at a disadvantage!

At this time, even Kobe in front of the TV was dumbfounded.

The Nuggets’ defense is simply abnormal!

The opponent is so oppressed that he has no chance at all!

The rotation is so quick and the hardness is so persevering!

This defense looks particularly scary to the naked eye!

After another block, Ryan picked up the basketball himself and counterattacked directly.

At this time, the Raptors, except Nesternović who had just gotten up, had all retreated to their own half.

Seeing that the center of the Raptors was not in position yet, Ryan did not control the ball himself after crossing the midfield line. Instead, he handed the ball to Monta Ellis and quickly walked inside.

But as soon as Ryan reached the edge of the three-second zone, Ellis gave the ball back.

At this time, because Barea was lifted to the outside by Kirilenko, the slow Nestenovic had not yet caught up.

Therefore, the only obstacle between Ryan and the basket is Caron Butler!

Although Caron Butler is very tough, compared to Ryan.

It’s still a little less interesting!

Ryan didn’t use any skills at all. After receiving the basketball near the three-second zone, Ryan directly turned sideways to control the ball and forced Butler to go inside, and he hit the basket with a violent impact. After seeing that the position was almost the same, without getting rid of Butler at all, Ryan directly used his hands to dunk on the spot and swallowed Caron Butler alive!

This hard-hit dunk without any technical content but extremely bloody made the Raptors home fans silent for a moment.

The toughest defender in their team is not worth mentioning in front of Ryan!

The Nuggets not only have the most terrifying defense, they also have the most terrifying scorer in the league!

How to play this game! ?

Kobe gritted his teeth. Although the game had just begun,…

The Raptors seemed to have no chance of fighting back!

The Denver Nuggets have a full lineup, so scary!

After scoring the goal, Ryan first screamed to the sky to vent his emotions.

Then, when he returned to defense, he deliberately ran to the sidelines, running towards Raptors coach Sam Smith, who yelled “good defense” to Caron Butler when he made his first shot.

Ryan smiled and patted Sam Smith’s arm: “It seems your defense is not good enough, coach!”

Sam Smith’s face is full of black lines, damn Ryan, this pervert, he even wants to refute such words!

The desire for revenge is too strong!

Seeing the Nuggets easily defeating the Raptors in the opening stages, Bird nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that with the complete mentality of the current lineup, there should be no problem if the team wants to shorten the gap with the Lakers!

Number one in the West is just around the corner!

The only real question now is how many points the Nuggets can shut out the Raptors in a single quarter.

What did Kobe Bryant say before that the Nuggets couldn’t beat the opponent by even 10 points in a single quarter?

Sorry, for now.

Nothing is impossible!

Ryan also clapped his hands excitedly: “Denver Miners, don’t let your opponents score even 1 point easily!”

“Roar!”

Angua swallowed. Now he knew why Ryan asked himself to be mentally prepared.

You are so cruel to your high school classmates, bastard!
