new lord of the rings

Chapter 265 He Is Everywhere

Mavericks right to the ball.

Devon Harris struggled through halftime under Zhang Xin's defense. Zhang Xin's footsteps were fast, he was strong, and he was strong in confrontation.

In this lineup of the Mavericks, Devin Harris is the core of the organization, the core of the offense is Monta Ellis, and Parsons exists more as an end point.

Barnes, who is playing against Parsons, because Parsons does not have much ball possession in the Mavericks lineup, and is more of a three-pointer, so Barnes is ready to help others defend at any time Prepare, which gives Parsons a chance.

Harris called Villanueva for a high pick-and-roll at the top of the arc. Villanueva quickly stepped up to help Devin Harris block Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin switched directly. Speights was still relatively fast. Harris should still be fine.

Sure enough, Speights kept in front of Devin Harris and did not lose his position. Devin Harris could only pass the ball to Parsons.

Parsons made a shot, shook Barnes' center of gravity, and then turned sideways and directly broke through to the inside. Green hurried over to help defend.

Aminu is released!

Parsons was overjoyed and passed the ball to Aminu with a ground hit.Aminu was about to dunk as soon as he received the ball, but he didn't notice Zhang Xin who came to help defend from the three-point line.

Zhang Xin jumped up with a big stride, and directly pressed Aminu's basketball on the backboard, and the backboard made a loud bang!
The cheers from the Oracle Center were like a flash flood!
Aminu was criticized by Zhang Xin. He blushed and looked a little annoyed, but he dared not speak out. After all, Zhang Xin is one of the few superstars in the league.

Green quickly controlled the basketball and quickly launched a transition attack.

Iguodala, Zhang Xin, Speights, and Barnes quickly stepped down, and Bang launched a fast break!

The scary thing about transition offenses is that:
It doesn't care how fast you can return to the defense, the key is to hit you with a weak foothold and complete the attack before your defensive line is formed.

Green dribbled the ball halfway and seeing that Zhang Xin had followed, Green quickly passed the ball to Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin was a greater threat to the basket.

Zhang Xin advanced quickly without stopping, rushed into the three-point line, forced the Mavericks to shrink the defensive line, then looked back at the moon, and passed the ball to Harrison Barnes who was rushing.

Barnes received the ball, stretched his bow and set an arrow, and directly hit a three-pointer, chasing a three-pointer!
Coach Carlisle frowned. As soon as the Warriors came up, they gave the Mavericks a maverick, one offense and one defense, demonstrating the Warriors' strong offensive and defensive capabilities!

Obviously, coach Carlisle was not satisfied with the Mavericks' defense, but the second quarter had just begun, and it was not a wise choice to call a timeout immediately, so he could only endure the suffocation in his heart.

The Mavericks had the ball, Devin Harris dribbled the ball under Zhang Xin's defense, and Monta Ellis and Devin Harris asked for the ball. In this lineup, Monta Ellis is the biggest With big names, he can choose how to attack.

Ellis held the ball at the top of the arc, and also asked Villanueva to put up a high pick-and-roll. Zhang Xin frowned: Speights can prevent Devin Harris' breakthrough, but he may not be able to prevent Monta Ellis. Breakthrough, Monta Ellis' breakthrough is sharper and more impactful.

Zhang Xin responded immediately. He let go of Devin Harris decisively and went directly to flank Monta Ellis.

Monta Ellis has a relatively unique style of play. He may not be able to pass the ball, and even if he passes the ball, he may not be able to pass it.

Monta Ellis didn't expect Zhang Xin's pincer attack to come so fast, Zhang Xin took out the ball all of a sudden, Zhang Xin took out the ball, and immediately launched a conversion attack!
Like a flash of lightning, Zhang Xin rushed directly across the front court with the wind blowing under his feet. There was no one in front of him. Zhang Xin took off in three steps and gently put the ball into the basket with both hands. !

"In these two rounds, Zhang Xin was everywhere, blocking shots, assisting, stealing, scoring, and dominating both ends of the offense and defense! Zhang Xin's cap on Aminu was directly driven from the three-point line to the inside. past to help defend.

Aminu is a fast small forward. From receiving the ball to dunking, in a short period of time, Zhang Xin rushed from the three-point line to the big cap Aminu inside. What a terrible defensive range!

And the ball that steals Monta Ellis was flanked by Devin Harris. To be honest, this ball is actually a bit risky. Once Monta Ellis passes the ball, Harris got an open three-pointer, and Harris' three-pointer percentage this year reached 35.7%.

I have to admire Zhang Xin's ability to judge. He may have predicted Monta Ellis and would not pass that ball at all! "Wang Meng guessed.

"This is very possible. From my understanding of Zhang Xin, he is a person who makes decisions before acting. He will not easily do something that is not sure.

Maybe in that short moment, he expected that Speights couldn't defend Monta Ellis, and even if he pinched Monta Ellis in the past, Monta Ellis might not pass the ball to Harris.

Of course, this is just my guess, and it may not be the case, but the ball was intercepted by Zhang Xin after all." Yang Yi smiled.

After all, Coach Carlisle couldn't bear it anymore, and he immediately called a timeout.

Coach Carlisle was very afraid of Zhang Xin. The memories Zhang Xin gave him were not very good. As soon as he saw Zhang Xin showing off his power, he immediately called a timeout. He had to interrupt Zhang Xin's momentum!
The Warriors scored consecutively. In fact, this is not a problem of defense, but a problem of the Mavericks' offense. These two offenses are offensive opportunities obtained by the Warriors through defense, blocks or steals.

If the Mavericks can get the ball in, the Warriors have no way to launch a transition attack, so in the final analysis, this is not a problem of defense, but a problem of offense!
Coach Carl is a very experienced coach. He saw the root cause at a glance and responded immediately. He re-arranged an offensive tactic for the Mavericks.

Pause back, Mavericks right to the ball.

Still, Devin Harris dribbled the ball through the frontcourt. After passing the frontcourt, Devin Harris immediately handed the ball to Monta Ellis. The strange thing is that Monta Ellis still called a high pick-and-roll at the top of the arc. It looks the same as before, nothing has changed.

This time it was not Zhang Xin who flanked him, but Barnes who flanked him.

As soon as Barnes started, Monta Ellis passed the ball to Parsons who was emptied, and Parsons directly shot a three-pointer and hit it!
Zhang Xin immediately understood that this should be Coach Carlisle's arrangement, using Monta Ellis' impact to attract the Warriors' pincers, and whoever was emptied would be given the ball.

Although Monta Ellis is a single-threaded player, if he is given detailed tactics, his execution is still very thorough. Anyway, he was once the boss of a team.

Zhang Xin smiled, a little interesting.
