Countercurrent and become a superstar

Chapter 51 Attack, attack, attack! ! Score more points than your opponents, this is the winning philosophy of the run and gun team!

In the position battle, Smushpark controlled the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Without any further waves, he passed the ball to Barbosa on the right. When he got the ball, Kaba Kappa immediately evacuated and beat Josh Howard's defense. Tune it out.

"Barbossa pressed the accelerator button.

He broke in too fast. Calderon's defense was tight and he was redirected. He passed by like an early morning street and quickly reached the penalty area.

He reached the end, threw his body into the penalty area, quickly finished the game, Ndiaye's block, and then slapped the exhaust gas of the basketball..."

Boom, swish—!
Barbosa pressed the accelerator button and changed directions one after another, and just warmed up the wine and knocked down the Mavericks' defense.

Brazil's lightning speed is so terrifying. As a raider, he is so sharp that it is really difficult to defend.

2 to 2! !
Off the court, D'Antoni crossed his chest with his hands, but his face was a little solemn.

This was not the point guard he wanted. Whether it was Smushpark or Barbosa, in just one round, he knew that it was not suitable for the run-and-gun tactics he envisioned.

For example, one AM and one FM.

In transition, the Mavericks attack.

Qin Yang controlled the ball to the frontcourt, faced Smush Parker, and directed Josh Howard to ask for a cover tactic.

"Josh Howard moved from the left to the right, using Qin Yang's cover to block Kabakapa. Then, after receiving the pass from Qin Yang, he broke through with the ball and reached the penalty area. He also finished. Shoot……"

Bang-dang——!
Josh Howard dunked the damn basketball into the basket with a tomahawk dunk.

It's not just that Josh Howard is very sharp, but also because the Suns' defense is so bad.

If you can't defend the outside line alone, and you can't protect the basket on the inside line, what can you do to defeat it?
Tan Yang looked at it and shook his head.

But this is also very reasonable. They are both run and gun teams, and they need a Der defense!
Attack, attack, attack! !
Then, it's enough to score more points than your opponent in the end.

This is the winning philosophy of a run-and-gun team.

The more points you score, the more you win.

It's not a problem if the defense is smashed to pieces, it's just a process, and good results are the most important part.

So there’s no need to panic if it’s 4 to 2.

This is the process.

Looking back, the Suns continued to speed up, and Barbosa quickly rushed to the frontcourt with the ball.

“It was too fast and the Mavericks’ defense was shaky.

The basketball moved to the 45-degree three-point line on the left side. Kaba Kappa caught the ball, raised it, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper..."

Josh Howard rushed there, but he was still half a beat too late and could only hear the gunshot.

Swish-!
The knife fell with his hand, and Kaba Kappa's three-pointer hit the net.

"A very nice run-and-gun offense!
It was too fast. The Mavericks' defense was breached before it was even organized.

The Suns are chasing the light, he's too fast..."

UI!
Forget it soon. The key is that the Suns' shooting is accurate, so it will be difficult to overcome.

4 to 5! !
Off the court, Nelson was calm and focused on offense. This was the Mavericks' game rhythm and he was not afraid of it.

Calderon quickly advanced upfield and immediately passed the ball to Qin Yang.

"What the hell?

Tan Yang caught the ball and he shot it. He said he was steady and mature.

Qin Yang lost it. With Smush Parker's block, he raised his hand and attempted a three-point pull-up jumper..."

Smushparker's position was a bit behind, and his pounce was just for show. He could only bet that Tan Yang's three-point pistol had no bullets.

Bang-dang——!
You guessed it, there are no bullets in Tan Yang's three-point pistol.

This is not the rhythm of his shooting attack. Open jump shots are his best offense. Shooting quickly against the defense is challenging his "basic but not offensive" talent. It is very reasonable to hit the iron.

"Oh, the Mavericks' offense is not over yet!
Josh Howard rushed to the penalty area, jumped up to light up the basketball, took off the backboard, and immediately dribbled the ball out... No, with a turn, Josh Howard turned around and rushed into the basket again. Kabakapa instinctively reached out to block the shot... "

Beep——!
Swish-!
At the same time as the whistle sounded, Josh Howard rushed to the basket and hit a finishing shot.

"pretty!!

There is no offense that cannot score. If not, then try the second time.

Moreover, this is also called andone! !
Josh Howard grabbed rebounds and scored points at will, dominating the penalty area. What can the Suns do to defeat it..."

Kabakapa can indeed extend his shooting range to attack beyond the three-point line and can play like Nowitzki, but being soft defensively is part of who he is.

The problem is that the offense is strong and the defense is weak. Moreover, it is still a young version of Nowitzki. Josh Howard has eaten hamburgers for four more years than Kabakapa, so it is reasonable for him to be crushed.

Swish-!
At the free throw line, Josh Howard showed no mercy and accurately hit the extra free throw, successfully scoring a 3-pointer.

7 to 5! !
During the transition between offense and defense, Barbosa continued to break through with the ball and wanted to use his speed to return it. However, Calderon fought and retreated, letting Barbosa in, and then closed the door and let Josh Howard pounce on it.

"Barbossa is flanked, let's see how he handles it?

Alas?
Sharing the ball is an opportunity, but Barbosa chose to shoot by himself. Will it happen..."

Bang-dang——!
The strike missed.

Barbosa's speed is S-level, but his passing vision is not good, and his shooting skills depend on the sky. When a reckless man makes a surprise attack, his speed advantage is obvious, but it cannot be converted into points, so it means nothing.

“Basketball, taken off by Josh Howard.

Kaba Kappa retreated to the outside and it was impossible to grab the rebound.

After getting the basketball, Josh Howard immediately rushed with the ball regardless of the situation.

Beautiful, Josh Howard is fast too…”

At this time, Tan Yang had already reached the midline early, leaving the confused Smushparker far behind.

Seeing this situation, Josh Howard immediately sent the basketball to the frontcourt. Tan Yang got the basketball and drove the ball to the penalty area. The only threat in front of him was the slippery road.

Therefore, Tan Yang burst into the penalty area and automatically slowed down. Instead of dunking in three steps, he used a civilian layup to send the basketball into the basket. Swish——!
9 to 5! !
Qin Yang counterattacked and scored, continuing the Mavericks' offense.

Off the court, D'Antoni was calm. Anyway, the Suns don't know how to defend, and the Mavericks don't even want to defend. Just let the bullets fly for a while.

In a 50-50 situation, you won’t panic.

On the field, Barbosa continued to rush the ball with the ball. Seeing Calderon continue to shrink in, Josh Howard released the defense and rushed to help defend. This time, he did not waste the ball and chose to distribute the ball to the outside.

"In the left corner, Kabakapa caught the ball, raised his hand, and shot another three-point jumper.

It’s another open opportunity, will there be one..."

Bang-dang——!
The strike missed.

It's true that Kaba Kappa has three-point range, but not everyone can become Nowitzki.

Using three-pointers inside to test the opponent's defense is a very unreliable offensive method in itself.

Forging iron is very reasonable.

“Still no hit!
The Suns' offense misfired.

It was Josh Howard again. He took off the rebound and immediately rushed with the ball. Tan Yang also counterattacked early and passed the half court.

The basketball was sent to the front again..."

Tan Yang got the basketball, and Smushparker came back this time and kept retreating to the penalty area. However, Tan Yang was in the top arc and fired at the Suns' basket.

"Again?
Tan Yang did not play a solid ball, but continued to float outside and shoot.

The game has turned into a shooting battle, will Tan Yang's three-pointer be there..."

Smushpark just stretched out his hand and did not intervene. He did not regard Tan Yang's three-pointer as alive.

After all, even if you try to escape, you still have to listen to gunshots.

Swish-!
The knife falls and the ball goes in.

Tan Yang's three-pointer was available and he hit it accurately.

"A very nice three-pointer!
The Suns made a three-pointer. Looking back, Tan Yang hit a three-pointer.

This ball is not only extremely lethal, it is also extremely insulting..."

12 to 5! !
The Mavericks played a wave of offense, widening the point difference between the two sides to 7 points.

After scoring the goal, Tan Yang did not compare blindly. After all, he is a scorer.

Having no feelings and no words is the most terrifying thing.

Off the court, D'Antoni did not call a timeout. After all, it was impossible for the Suns to defend.

When attacking, the Suns also got open shooting opportunities. They couldn't make the shots themselves and were counterattacked. This was not a defensive problem.

It's a matter of offense.

If the offense has opportunities but fails to make shots, it is a matter of player status.

Therefore, if there is a problem on the field, just leave it to the players to solve it themselves.

Bang-dang——!
Smushparker turned around and shot another shot.

Facing the double attack of Tan Yang and Josh Howard, Parker still chose to take action himself, which again tested his shooting skills and his habit of not passing the ball.

Tan Yang and Josh Howard's defensive offensive power will not tolerate him, allowing the Suns' offense to continue to misfire.

The rebound was picked off by Ndiaye. This time, the Suns did not counterattack the Mavericks. They slowed down the rhythm of the game and settled down to fight.

Off the court, D'Antoni's face didn't look good.

He didn't care about defense at all, he only cared about offense.

Run and gun, run and gun, now the Suns can't run faster than 7 seconds, and can't hit the basket. This kind of game cannot be played.

The seven-second run-and-gun tactic requires a lot of core point guards.

One is the need for extremely excellent passing vision. After all, no matter how fast the players are, they cannot match the speed of passing.

The other is the need for accurate mid-range shots. Without shooting, the pick-and-roll tactics cannot be efficient.

It's good that the game can be played in a situation where more players play less. If that situation cannot be achieved, the regular pick-and-roll tactics will be frozen, and there will be no way to attack the enemy.

Especially the seven-second run and gun, which relies too much on the core defender's ability to organize offense. If these two necessary skills are not excellent, this tactical play will really not work.

Barbosa's shooting was on time and inaccurate, let alone his passing vision. He couldn't afford this tactic.

Smushpark can't shoot well, can't pass the ball well, and can't exert its tactical power.

At this moment, the two combo guards in the Suns' formation are not strong enough, and the offense cannot open up the situation, so what else do they need from him?
Swish-!
Qin Yang assisted Calderon and scored another three-pointer.

The Suns had no defense and were at an absolute disadvantage inside, so the game became easy.

Shooting competition with you.

If you miss the shot, you can still grab the offensive rebound and continue shooting.

If it doesn't work once, then do it the second time.

The Suns can't attack and can't defend. In such a situation, what can you do to save you?
Om-!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.

The score was 116 to 94. The Mavericks defeated the Suns by 22 points and won two consecutive games in the summer league.

Tan Yang clocked out of get off work in the third quarter again, scoring 18 points, 11 assists and 4 rebounds. His statistical performance can only be said to be average.

After all, if you want good data, you must first have a good opponent. Your opponent will fall flat before you exert any force. Who can output long-lasting and brave firepower?
Josh Howard had 21 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists. He also clocked out in the third quarter, and his statistics were also not amazing.

On the other hand, Marquis Daniels played all 4 quarters and scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Although he looks ugly, he became the better-looking guy on the court.
