100% God Guard

“Mehta, can you restrain him? Can it be done alone? ”

In the visiting team’s dressing room, Rick Carlisle stared at Artest with burning eyes, wanting to get a definite answer from the other party, but unfortunately, the latter only hesitated and could not say anything.

His previous confidence, after a series of confrontations in the first half, he found that the gap between him and Lu Li was too much, and he found that not only could he not limit the other party, but perhaps the whole league could not find a player who could prevent Lu Li alone.

Seeing that he lowered his head and did not speak, Carlisle was not reluctant, he beckoned the other disciples to gather around and took out the tactical board.

“Then we need to make changes. Lu’s ability, I believe you have experienced it deeply, in the second half, we have to change the details in defense. ”

Coming back in the second half, the line-up of both sides remained the same, but the tactical arrangement changed. The Pacers made a targeted defense against Riku, copying the Knicks’ defensive tactics against the Spurs in previous games, letting Lu off one and strangling the others.

Since there is no way to prevent Riku, it is completely fine to strangle the connection between him and his teammates and send him out of teamwork.

The Pacers’ defensive efficiency ranks in the top five in the league, perhaps not as good as the Pistons, who are strong defensive and solid formations because of the strong defensive strength of each player, and are not as good as the Spurs, who are good at forming formations against opponents, but their defense, every position is very hard, very hard, not worse than other teams.

Not only did Carlisle bring out the Pistons’ defense, but his defensive system was still working after the Pacers. He may not be the best coach to compete for the championship, but he is an academy coach who can lay the system for the team.

He may be in the same league as Popovich’s division, and defensive tactics have some commonalities.

Riku was released, led by Old Miller, while Artest and the rest of the walkers pestered the others by constantly circling forward, or assisting in defense. For a moment, the Knicks’ offense was a bit chaotic, and once Riku got the ball, the offense stalled. Riku was forced to hold the ball alone, singled Old Miller, and ended up hitting the opponent’s head.

Don Cheney frowned when he saw it, but he didn’t expect the other party to change first, and he only emphasized the attack at halftime, and there was no change in the tactical arrangement, so he felt that he was one step behind the other party, and immediately turned to the coaching team to discuss countermeasures.

The Pacers’ ‘Jordan’s Law’ tactic has been successfully used by the Spurs once, and they currently don’t have a good solution, after all, the team’s independent offensive ability in other positions is too far behind to share the offense for Lu Li and link the system from scratch.

This time, the Pacers used it the same way, and they faced a crisis again.

Although the Knicks’ defense was not good, it was good luck, and Miller Sr.’s first shot of the second half hit the iron. Riku grabbed the rebound first and rushed to the front.

Artest had desperately returned to defense, but still did not follow his footsteps, and was rushed into the basket and dunked.

The margin was still stretched to 17 points, and Carlisle was a headache, although the first successful break up of the Knicks offense successfully forced Riku into individual singles, but unfortunately the team did not score for it.

However, since such a tactic has been arranged, and it has begun to bear fruit, he will not immediately overturn the previous arrangement.

The Pacers continued to attack, this time after passing the ball back and forth, finally giving O’Neal Jr. a chance to hit a mid-range shot from the inside. At that time, Uncle Mu was completely stuck behind white center Foster, and the others did not fill the defense, thus revealing a big gap.

Offensive and defensive conversion, when the Knicks were ready to serve the bottom line, I don’t know what Luli and Frank Williams said, and it became dominated by the former, and Williams himself returned to the front court.

Lu Li held the ball, did not rush to lead the front court, old Miller did not dare to take it lightly, and kept firmly in front of him, following the step by step.

But at this moment, Lu Li passed the ball, he just glanced at it, found a fleeting figure, the basketball streaked across most of the court, and accurately delivered to Kurt Thomas, who only needed to easily step in and get a layup.

“wow！！！ How did Lu find out about Kurt? God, this is completely blocked from sight between Reggie and Jermaine, and he can still be hoisted into the hands of Kurt in the front court, his vision is so good? ”

In the commentary seat, Mafu was amazed, and he greatly appreciated Lu Li’s reaction to seizing the opportunity so quickly and sending a wonderful pass.

“In fact, Lu’s vision has always been very good, but compared to his excellent scoring ability, it is not so gorgeous. I think the Pacers are in trouble next, and Lu is not a player who can only score. He may have learned the lesson of the San Antonio Spurs and made a change on his own. Barkley echoed with a grin.

Perhaps to verify his statement, in the next Knicks’ offense, Riku continued to receive the bottom line serve, and personally carried the ball into the front court. This time, he didn’t have a chance to deliver an assist, but slowly walked to the front. Old Miller held his breath and froze in front of him, blocking Lu Li’s line of sight, not daring to let the opponent pass the ball easily.

It’s just that Lu Li’s breakthrough is not reasonable at all, he can be described as old and strong in attack, but defensively, his steps can no longer keep up with a newborn calf like Lu Li.

After Lu Li took a step past the old Miller and cut under the basket, Artest reacted quickly and hurriedly stepped forward to make up for it. But the next moment, he was a little panicked, because he didn’t see the basketball in the other party’s hand, and it was no longer in Lu Li’s hands.

“Bang!”

In the next second, he heard a wail from the basket frame, and hurriedly looked back and found that the basketball had been poured into the basket frame by Uncle Mu’s hands and landed easily.

When did this guy pass the ball?

Artest was secretly surprised, he obviously made up for it the moment Lu Li broke through Old Miller, but unexpectedly the basketball disappeared under his nose, and Lu Li’s mysterious pass simply shocked him.

At the same time, there was an exclamation at the scene, and Barkley actually opened his mouth and stammered: “How the hell did Lu pass this ball?” wow！！！ He actually hit the back to Dichambe under the basket, and it came from Mehta’s crotch, oh my God, this pass is so imaginative! ”
