Chapter 295

"mine!"

Tang Wenlong raised his hand to indicate that he was responsible for the ball, and his teammates waved their hands to indicate that it was okay.

Off the court, Billups and Ray Allen whispered about the tactics of the 76ers. Ray Allen said sternly: "If Lowry holds the ball, he will basically use the tactics of the pillar series. Position-oriented, so that Gasol and West's ability to open space can be used, and Tang Wenlong can also create opportunities for open shots."

"If Tang Wenlong runs without the ball, more positions will be exposed in the two elbow areas, and the most important thing is that both David West and Marc Gasol have the ability to respond, and they dominate the ball. It’s been really good.” What Billups noticed was the Sixers’ ability to share the ball.

"However, the Thunder's defense today is really very active. Russell Westbrook's steal just now is just right. It feels like he has been in ambush for a long time." Ray Allen said.

"It must have lost the finals. I have been studying the 76ers all summer. Studying Tang Wenlong's passing. Anticipation is very important." Billups said jokingly, and the two couldn't help but secretly laughed. Don't dare to be seen by the camera.Otherwise, tomorrow's headline should be "The 76ers openly joked and disrespected the opponent in the game between the two veterans".

A few minutes later, the game entered the rotation time of the substitute lineup.

Collins couldn't wait to replace the two old sticks he had just recruited this summer, along with backup center Kwame Brown.

"Ambush at the bottom line and the blocking area, and be ready to catch the ball at any time." Tang Wenlong and Kwame Brown clapped their hands and gave simple instructions.

At the same time, he smiled with Billups and Ray Allen on the field.

"Chauncey, you organize it. I'll cover and pick and roll." Tang Wenlong said to Billups in a low voice, and Billups was not polite, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'll give you an air cut later." Pass."

After the exchange, several people stood on the sidelines and waited for the Thunder to kick off the backcourt.

The Thunder replaced Kevin Martin and Hashim Thabeet, and replaced Safoloza and Perkins. The first two were traded from the Rockets with Harden. Martin also averaged A scorer with nearly 20 points, although his offensive methods are not particularly rich, but his shooting ability is very strong, his shooting angle is very low, and his shooting speed is top in the league.

Westbrook advanced to the frontcourt, and the Thunder changed their tactics and immediately changed to running off the ball for Kevin Martin.

When Martin ran to the elbow, he became a double screen for Durant and Ibaka. At this time, there was a problem with the communication between Tang Wenlong and Ray Allen. According to the words of Iguodala in the past, it would be better to switch defenses directly. Okay, but now Ray Allen is different from Iguodala. Ray Allen just passed through their pick-and-roll screen, followed Martin's footsteps very well, and the two rushed Martin to the outside line together.

Durant was open in the middle and ran out to catch a pass from Westbrook and hit a jumper.

"My", "My!" Tang Wenlong and Ray Allen took responsibility in unison, and then they both laughed. Tang Wenlong stretched out his hand, and the two of them clapped hands and went back halfway to attack.

Westbrook's defensive aggressiveness is very strong, and Billups is sideways and steady on the ball.

At the top of the arc, Tang Wenlong came out, and then cut to the inside. Ray Allen ran back to the outside. The Thunder also made a defensive error. Martin focused on Tang Wenlong and ignored Ray Allen.

Outside Billups passed Ray Allen a jumper for a three-pointer in seconds, and the latter made an easy shot and made a precise hit!

This is Ray Allen's first three-pointer for the 76ers. This is also Billups' first assist in the 76ers. The audience immediately applauded. The 76ers are 19 to 19. Tied the scores of the two teams.

After Durant missed a jumper, Tang Wenlong grabbed a rebound and pushed forward. He stopped outside the three-point line and made a fake shot to worship Buddha.

Immediately shaking Durant's center of gravity up, and then bending over, he was about to break through Durant.

Durant fouled ahead of time and prevented Tang Wenlong from attacking the inside line. This happened to be the Thunder's fourth foul.

Tang Wenlong sent a sideline ball to Billups, then rushed out to catch Billups' hand-off pass, and used David West's pick-and-roll at the top of the arc.In the blink of an eye from West, the Thunder's formation appeared again. Tang Wenlong passed the ball back to find Ray Allen. Ray Allen then turned to Billups who was open in the corner. Billups shot a three-pointer!

Return! 22 to 19, two substitutes were replaced, and the effect was immediate.

The two old clubs who are over 70 years old together are extremely rich in field experience, and their shooting ability is very strong. Compared with Lowry and Iguodala, their long-range shooting ability is more stable. The Thunder have not yet reacted. , Bang Bang made two three-pointers and became 3 points behind.

Brooks immediately called a long timeout, and it was time for commercial breaks in the first quarter.

"Good pass!" The two old clubs had a special tacit understanding when they played for the first time, and they gave each other high-fives to encourage each other.

After the timeout, Westbrook went off to rest first, and the point guard who replaced him became "Old Fish" Fisher. Coach Brooks was also very good, and he replaced the veteran duel.

Fisher is old, but he is very strong defensively. As long as he is not a fast point guard who breaks through wildly, he can basically complete defensive tasks well.It just so happens that Billups is older, and he doesn't use speed to beat others. He relies on the change of rhythm. After the two meet each other, they both feel that the other is very difficult.

Before the end of the first quarter, Tang Wenlong received a point from Ray Allen, feinted and then made a jump shot. His personal score reached the 8th point, helping the 76ers lead the Thunder by 27 to 25.

Tang Wenlong played the first quarter, and the first half of the second quarter became a rest time. Coach Collins asked Iguodah to organize the game, and at the same time replaced Billups with the more impactful "Xiao Gang" Cannon" Lowry.

During this period of time, the two sides played very fast. After Ray Allen ambushed on the outside, Lowry's breakthrough point to find the sight was also much clearer.The Thunder let Westbrook attack mainly, and the latter also used a trick to break through and score the ball, repeatedly finding the 76ers' defensive loopholes and getting opportunities to score.

The score between the two sides has never been opened, and the Thunder even took a slight lead.

By the time Tang Wenlong played, there was only half a quarter left in the second quarter. At this time, Durant had already played for 2 minutes and got a chance to hit a three-pointer.

After Tang Wenlong played, the 76ers returned to the lineup of the starting five tigers. He continued to cooperate with Gasol in pick-and-rolls at a 45-degree position on the right side. It was all Perkins, who didn't dare to follow. Tang Wenlong hit two shots from mid-range, and the score was tied at 40.
