This Forward is Not Serious

, The fastest update to the latest chapter of this striker's non-decent!

"Sneez~"

Paul, who was preparing for training, sneezed fiercely.

I didn't know who was thinking about it just now.

He rubbed his nose, then looked around his teammates.

On paper, the Hornets brought in James Posey during the offseason, which is even stronger than last season.

If Chandler can play now, they are not without a chance, or even a chance.

"Chris, close the door."

After finishing training and returning to the locker room, West said when he saw Paul coming in.

This should be prepared to talk about something in the locker room and not want to be heard by the media.

"Chris, do you say we can win?"

When Paul sat down, West asked inwardly.

Being reversed by the Spurs last season was a bit autistic.

Reinforced during the offseason, wanted to make a comeback, but found that his performance was not as good as last season.

This situation does make people a little worried.

The most true performance is that West asked about the words, but after asking the rest of the Nuggets all looked at Paul in unison.

"David, you should know that the Houston Rockets once completed the division's sixth seed and finally won the championship."

Paul's answer, full marks.

In the 1994~1995 season, the Rockets ranked sixth in the Western Conference, and finally defended the title all the way back, and the famous saying was born:

"Don't underestimate the heart of a championship."

Although the Hornets are not the defending champions, this example is appropriate.

Because their strength is not weak, falling to this position is the same as the Rockets back then as a factor of injury.

Sure enough, because of his words, the Hornets' morale has improved significantly.

They have the opportunity to replicate the success of the Rockets!

On the same day, the playoffs officially started.

The Cavaliers Pistons and Hawks in the East, the Lakers Suns and the Trail Blazers Spurs in the West all made their debut on this day.

After four games, three big wins and one small win.

The small victory came from the Spurs Trail Blazers. Although Duncan scored 27 points and 9 rebounds, Parker also scored 24 points, but no one else scored in double figures.

GDP, a little less will not work.

...

The playoffs continued the next day.

It is still the Eastern Conference that starts first.

However, unlike the first day, this day can be described as unpopular.

In the first game, the Bulls overthrew the Celtics 105 to 103!

Rose made the playoffs with the team during his rookie season, and then scored 36 points, 4 rebounds and 11 assists in the first playoff game of his career!

Jordan: My successor is here!

Rose's style of play really hurts his knees, but it's also a billion points strong.

Then, the 76ers also beat the Magic 100 to 98 upset.

Howard made 11 of 13 shots and scored 31 points and 16 rebounds, but that didn't help, because the Magic were only 5 of 18 outside.

This directly upset the Magic's Achilles' heel. Compared to Howard, the three-pointer is the most critical factor in determining the Magic's victory.

Then, the Rockets, which took the lead in the Western Conference, lost to the Mavericks with an upset 91 than 101...

This day can be called an NBA upset day.

The fans suddenly discovered that if the Nuggets also lose to the Hornets, today the first half of the team will all be killed.

Inexplicably, the highlight of this game is bigger than expected.

Pepsi Center Arena, the scene is full of seats, a blue ocean.

The emotions of the fans are also extremely excited.

Originally, the team's state after the All-Star game was excellent, plus this wave of winning is the most beautiful boy in the playoffs today, how can we not be excited.

Specifically, at the opening ceremony, the decibels of cheers seemed to overturn the ceiling.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups on both sides were released.

Hornets: Paul, Russell Butler, Peja Stojakovic, David West, Chandler.

Nuggets: Billups, Duntai Jones, Anthony, Lin Ying, Nene.

"beep!"

With a whistle, Nene jumped to set the ball back to the Nuggets halftime, and the home team attacked!

Before the game started, Lin Ying and Billups looked at each other tacitly, and had already got the same information from each other's eyes.

Chandler didn't jump high when he jumped the ball, and his reaction was slow. The impact of this foot injury was obvious.

Billups raised his hand in the frontcourt to organize, Lin Ying and Nene did a ball-free pick and roll.

Just when the Hornets thought the Nuggets were going to misplace their singles tactics, Billups sent the ball in with a hit.

Lin Ying caught the ball and met Chandler, and made a layup for Chandler's thugs foul!

Then, Lin Ying had a brief verbal exchange with Billups when he went to the free throw line:

"Make him one more."

"knowledge."

Yes, very targeted.

Chandler is the inside barrier of the Hornets. If there is no injury, Lin Ying will challenge him like this.

But a jump ball saw the details, then used small tactics to test the wave, and found that his injury did have a great impact.

So knock down this barrier and the Nuggets will gain a huge advantage in the opening game.

Two free throws were steady and the Nuggets scored first.

Looking back, Paul and West had a pick-and-roll, and then quickly changed to break through the backhand to score.

The speed of the change is really a bit of Iverson's taste.

Just like Duncan before and after the injury, so did Paul. At this time, he hadn't been seriously injured.

Looking back, Billups signaled, Anthony held the ball, and Nene pulled out to play a pick-and-roll for him.

Still play Chandler this point.

The defender against Anthony was Messenger Butler, who decisively doubled.

However, Anthony was in a state of bravery.

How can An Fengxian lose his name?

However, it can also be seen from this ball that Chandler did not dare to reach out after a foul.

This is the detail.

Even if Chandler was not shot down, the Hornets' inside defense had already dropped a lot.

There is a reason Billups is called a "ball blind appraiser" by fans.

For games, especially the playoffs, this kind of detail may be more useful than scoring 20 points.

Of course, it can also be seen from the eyes of Lin Ying and Billups that Lin Ying has become very sophisticated in experience after mixing with Billups in the past six months.

Paul repeated his old tricks, this time he caught the flanking shot and knocked the ball back to West. West hit a mid-range jumper.

This wave of pick-and-rolls perfectly demonstrates Paul's strength. The height of 1.83 meters can have this kind of vision, and there is this kind of pass, which is worthy of being the first point guard candidate in history.

But looking back, under Billups's signal, Anthony broke through Butler with the ball, hit the basket and started again to score!

Paul missed a jumper in the frontcourt and turned around Billups himself and Nene made a pick and roll to the basket and scored a layup.

Just hit you inside, every hit is accurate!

Chandler kicked annoyedly.

On the sidelines, the Hornets' "Best Head Coach" Scott is also solemn.

The Nuggets are too targeted!

And the consecutive defensive failures also caused some problems on the offensive end of the Hornets.

West received the ball and was defended by Billups. Paul wanted to return the ball and he didn't give it.

As a result, Billups fell to the ground as soon as he lifted his elbow, and the referee's whistle followed.

Offensive foul!

What are the details!

This foul is undoubtedly worse for the Hornets.

Originally, Chandler had a foul, but now West also has it. This inside defense has directly become a vacuum.

After Lin Ying gave Anthony a pick and roll, he inserted into the basket and locked it in place.

Billups knocked the ball to Anthony, who shook Westgan and pulled out his hand.

West dare not start, this ball is a good opportunity.

"when!"

It's a pity that it's a little bit off.

However, Lin Ying jumped up directly at the basket and grabbed an offensive rebound!

Originally, he got into a good position early, and his take-off speed was faster than Chandler's, which was so deep in Duncan's true story.

He got up again, Chandler couldn't stand it any longer this time, and reached out to seal it.

But he didn't expect Lin Ying to make a fake move for the first time. When he couldn't hold him back, Lin Ying got up again.

"Snapped!"

Another thug.

The referee's whistle from the sidelines followed.

Chandler's second personal foul!

Scott: Amount!

The sideline whistle sounded and Chandler was substituted!

He only played for three minutes!

When Lin Ying went to the free throw line again, Billups came up and gave him a high-five, and there was a brief verbal exchange:

"Good job."

"Little meaning."

The two have a good understanding.

Paul looked at the two of them, and for a moment there was a day when he returned to the Olympics to give backpacks to the big guys.

you……

Just bully me!

And this kind of bullying made him very helpless, because of Chandler's affairs, he couldn't do anything at all!

Lin Ying made two free throws again.

8 to 4.

Paul continued to score points, he called Stojakovic this time to pick and roll himself.

This is to catch the only loophole Anthony on the Nuggets field.

Anthony: Come and kill me if it's a brother!

A certain gun: here it is!

Anthony, really guarded it.

The biggest difference between Anthony and history is that he did not gain weight, which made his confrontation worse than in the same period in history, but his flexibility was barely okay.

Of course, the same outstanding thing is positivity. After Billups came, he felt that he really had a chance to win the championship, and the enthusiasm reached the highest state of his career.

Paul saw no chance to distribute the ball to Peja on the outside.

Peja faced Billups' three-pointer...

The ball was touched when he raised his hand.

This ball, three shots!

Lin Ying couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Lupus at this time:

Fine, it's too fine!

Nene picked up a rebound and gave Billups the first time.

Billups glanced at the Hornets retreating quickly, gave up the fast break, controlled the ball to the frontcourt and waited for everyone to land before organizing.

After a wave of hands, Lin Ying and Nei Nei played a ball-free pick-and-roll.

But this time Billups didn't feed Lin Ying directly, but waited for Lin Ying to turn back in a low post before giving it in.

Here comes the classic misplaced singles tactics of the Nuggets this season!

After Chandler went off, he was replaced by Hilton Armstrong.

Because of his name, domestic fans should have heard of him, and some fans even gave him the nickname "Astronaut."

He was the No. 12 pick in 2006. The first two years have been very sad because Chandler joined the Hornets in the same year and was forced to play as a substitute.

After Chandler was injured this season, he finally ushered in a starting opportunity. As a result, Hornets fans discovered that his technical characteristics are mainly two points:

Offensive is not good, defense is not good.

Poor basic offensive skills, no shooting ability, unstable hooks and layups under the basket;

On the defensive end, the defense that made him enter the lottery, but also because of the physical strength of the confrontation can not play;

Some people may ask why Peja is a good player.

The reason is actually very simple, Peja's defense is not bad.

This may be different from the impression of many people.

Although Peja is a white shooter, his defensive level is above the league average, somewhat similar to Anthony, and his defensive weakness is his footwork.

But his height and arm length are defensive awareness online, and hitting him is not so easy.

In contrast, Armstrong is clearly a better breakthrough.

Lin Ying held the ball behind her back and directly stunned.

Armstrong is close to 2.11 meters tall, but weighs only 106 kilograms.

He was very good at this kind of lanky insider when he was a rookie, and now he is even more handy when he has all the skills to fight against.

I saw: Lin Ying went deep and deep, Armstrong stood up and retreated.

When it reaches the restricted area, a wave is launched and it climaxes directly.

"Boom!"

Lin Ying turned around and smashed the ball into the basket!

He agreed with Billups's remarks in the locker room before.

To beat the Hornets quickly, then knocking down the opponent in the first game is the best plan.

The ball instantly detonated the Pepsi Center.

And we can also see the importance of a healthy Chandler to the Hornets.

Seeing that the lineup is not much different, or even better, but in fact it is very different.

Looking back, Paul went to Peja again.

This time Peja had a better chance, but his three-pointer... still didn't!

Peja is an all-time three-point shooter. At his peak, he was the king of the game and was in the top five of the MVP.

But the biggest difference between him and Klay Thompson is the habitual diarrhea of ​​the playoffs.

Played in the playoffs for 8 years, only the 02~03 season and last season were considered to be at their level.

As a result, it returned to normal levels immediately this year.

This time the rebound was in Lin Ying's hands, and the Nuggets played a defensive counterattack.

After Billups scored a fast break layup, the score on the court has become 12 to 4!

Lin Ying was just feeling before, but now the Hornets have a big "Danger" word on their heads.

The defensive end cannot be held, the offensive end cannot be shot, and more importantly, the foul crisis.

Without looking back, West assisted in defending Lin Ying and received a single foul for the second time...

The Hornets were forced to replace the "JU-JU" Julian Wright who Lin Ying played against in college.

Wright is similar in size to Armstrong ~www.readwn.com~ Both of them are only one pick, and then they are also struggling.

However, his technical characteristics are different from Armstrong. Although there are two points, he is:

Neither does this, nor does that work.

His offensive versatility in college has become completely incapable in the NBA, and the defensive end is also eaten by all kinds of hardships because of lack of confrontation.

Some Hornets fans sighed:

Wolong and phoenix chicks can be safe in the world with one person, how can the Hornets have two at the same time!

This wave, this wave is called a stabbing of ten thousand insiders!

After the first quarter, the Nuggets have led the Hornets 36 to 15 by a full 21 points!

During the break, Lin Ying turned her head and glanced at Paul.

Paul's figure seems to have become a fuzzy number.
