Basketball Myth: Super Guard

In a blink of an eye, three minutes passed, but the Pacers took the lead.

This made the home fans a little upset. Last season, the 76ers slammed their opponents against the Pacers in the playoffs.

"It's still a defensive issue."

"Yeah, facing the Pacers last season, although the height of the inside was a bit disadvantaged, but it can still be defended with excellent help. But now it always seems to be a little worse. It feels like the rigorous defense of last season is gone. ."

"Iguodala is missing. Although only one person is missing, it affects the entire 76ers defensive system."

"And Lu Wei is always targeted, defense is really not his strong point, far worse than Iguodala."

"Although Iguodala has gone from bad to worse offensively in the past two seasons, he is still very strong on the defensive end, but Lu Wei..."

Some fans also noticed that the main problem is defense.

There are Qin Hao, Butler, and Xiaoka on the offensive end. There is no problem, but it is a big problem that can't be prevented.

On the court.

The Pacers attacked, and George wanted to find Wayway again, but Qin Hao quickly stepped forward and shouted at Wayway: "Change defense."

"Okay." Lu Wei quickly threw George away and rushed towards Finsen.

"I thought that would be fine?" George sneered and motioned to others to pull away, but instead of playing Qin Hao solo, he passed the ball, passed it to Finsen, and signaled Finsen to play by himself.

Qin Hao had no choice but to recognize Lu Wei alone?

But Lu Wei's defense is really bad. It's okay if he can't prevent George. The problem is that he can't even guard Hill and Finsen. He can't guard from the 1st to 3rd positions, no matter which position he switches to.

This is the troublesome place, and Qin Hao and others are helpless, because no matter how you change defenses, Lu Wei's point is a loophole.

Immediately, Finsen was a singles breakthrough, a disguised acceleration, two steps forward, relying on his physical advantage to knock Lu Wei away, and then a jumper.

Huh!

With a soft sound, the ball is scored.

Lu Wei had a bitter face, feeling extremely depressed.

As a substitute last season, he encountered opponents that were not so strong. Most of the time he was the opponent's substitute player, and he was never targeted in this way. Now he feels like a soft persimmon, anyone can pinch it.

"It's okay, it's time for us to attack." Qin Hao comforted, pushing the ball to the frontcourt, and wanting to inspire Lu Wei, first asked for a pick and roll, then broke through, not fast, the purpose is to attract defense, and then divide the ball. , Pass it to Lu Wei, "Vote!"

Lu Wei catches the ball and makes a three-pointer.

boom!

With a muffled sound, the ball hit the iron.

Qin Hao was also a little helpless. This opportunity for the ball was very good, almost a chance for an empty basket. It seems that today's defensive end has been repeatedly targeted, which still affected Lu Wei's mentality.

In this lineup at this time, Lu Wei's role is to attack, especially the three-pointer.

Although the 76ers have changed their lineup, they are still "one big and four small". Three-pointers can't be lost. This is their weapon.

But if Lu Wei can't make a three-pointer, then he won't play a role in this lineup.

In the next few rounds, Qin Hao passed two more passes to Lu Wei, but without exception, they all ended up with iron.

"beep......"

The 76ers requested a timeout.

Coach Luke and Qin Hao looked at each other with a little helplessness. He calmed down and said, "Wait for the substitution, Lu Wei, you come down to rest, and Speights comes in. Jimmy plays the 3rd position, and the small card plays 2. Number and position, others remain unchanged."

By this time the 76ers had fallen behind by 8 points, and Lu Wei's point became a loophole, and he could only be replaced with a regular season lineup.

Lu Wei sat depressed on the bench.

The timeout is over and the game continues.

The 76ers tried the lineup to become Nene, Speights, Butler, Kaka, Qin Hao, the Pacers did not change, but those few.

Switching to this lineup, the 76ers no longer play the "big and four small" tactics, and lowered the rhythm. After Qin Hao got to the frontcourt, he first made a pick-and-roll with Speights, leaving Finsen and taking advantage of the situation. Break through, attract defense and pass the ball back to Speights.

Huh!

Speights stood a little above the free throw line and made a jumper.

"nice shot."

In the audience, the home fans cheered.

In the next few rounds, the 76ers played positional battles, catching the screens and pick-and-rolls. With Qin Hao, Butler, and Kaka dismantling the defense, Speights and Nene got a lot of opportunities. It didn't disappoint, and it played well.

But the Pacers also played very well.

Under George's leadership, the Pacers have played very well, and George has improved a lot compared to last season. Not only does he put more effort in scoring, he added more passes and began to consciously guide the game.

Moreover, George has become more mature now and knows how to take advantage of each other's weaknesses.

For example, in the previous few minutes, he kept aiming at Lu Wei, and when replaced by Qin Hao, or a small card to defend him, he could actually play, but he did not. Instead, he chose to split the ball and let others attack Lu Wei. This point.

So in a few minutes, George didn't actually score a lot, but he played a very important role.

This is a kind of maturity.

George was just a star in the past, but now he is trying to become a leader. There is a difference between the two.

Quietly, more than seven minutes have passed since the first quarter, and the Pacers still led by 6 points.

When Lu Wei was replaced and replaced with Speights, the points difference did not shrink much, because after replacing Speights, the 76ers were more positional, with fewer counterattacks and fewer three-pointers.

The defense has been strengthened, but the offense has been weakened.

......

"A bunch of pig teammates." Assistant coach Harry cursed, hating the team management.

But as long as you have a bit of use, the team will not be in the current situation. They played the role of the three giants Qin Hao, Butler, and Xiaoca, but they were stunned by the Pacers.

We are the defending champions, what is this?

Not far away, the Pacers head coach grinned and showed a smile. The 76ers that seemed invincible before is nothing more than that.

Very good. I will beat the 76ers in a few days and give them a big gift. I lost the first regular season of the new season. It feels good.

"beep......"

Coach Luke called for a timeout and began to replace the main players and substitute players. Qin Hao and Xiaoka were also replaced, but Butler stayed on top.

Lu Wei was replaced.

The lineup on the field at this time is Smith, Speights, Butler, Lu Wei, Sessions.

In this lineup, Lu Wei played well because he had less pressure on the defensive end, and at the same time he played better on the offensive end. After all, the opposing team gradually changed their main players and replaced them with substitute players.

Come and go, the first quarter ends.

At this point, the Pacers were still leading, but only 2 points ahead. In the last few minutes, the 76ers' offense played well, and they chased a few points.
