Chapter 130 Diamond Scola
Chapter 130 Diamond Scola
Chapter 130 Diamond Scola
Valanciunas and Hibbert, both at the basket, take off together again to compete for the ball that spins and jumps in midair.
Xu Tian was completely stuck behind Carroll, and he couldn't get over the thunder at all. He could only watch the fierce fight under the basket from a close distance.
One of the advantages Hibbert has over Valanciunas is that he doesn't need to get the ball in his hands, and he is very smart to use his right hand to make a penalty kick to avoid being rebounded by Valanciunas, who is in a better position.
The basketball was affected by external forces, changed its original travel route, and flew back towards the basket again.
DeRozan was a little impatient, jumped up when the ball fell, interfered with his right hand, and sent it flying.
The referee's sense of smell was extremely keen, and he caught the moment when the ball fell, and without hesitation, he punished DeRozan's offensive interference ball and gave the Lakers two points.
52-65!
Dwayne Casey was cautious enough to wait for DeRozan to serve the ball and call a timeout immediately.
In the second half of the game, only two or three rounds were played, and the players were still physically strong, so they stood on the sidelines and listened to Scott's tactical arrangements.
Scott took over the tactical board from Madsen and drew a tactic of crossing the top of the arc in the second and third positions, allowing George and Clarkson to serve as the main offensive points.He knew that the Raptors focused their defense on Xu Tian, so they used George and Clarkson to attack.
Xu Tian had the privilege to change his offensive and defensive tactics on the field, so he didn't interfere with Scott's arrangement, and quietly drank the hot water that Thackeray handed over.
On the afternoon when Xu Tian went to UCLA for training, Kobe called and invited Xu Tian to Beverly Hills to reconcile the conflict between him and the sports drink BODYAOMOR, and let this small disturbance pass smoothly.Now Xu Tian put down his tricks and continued to drink plain water without any sponsors.
The player Dwayne Casey fears most is LeBron James. He has nothing to do with the little emperor who dominates the East. Now facing the more skilled Xu Tian, he also feels this pressure.But he still cheered the players on and instilled in them the concept of being better than the Lakers.
Lowry and DeRozan are the leaders of the Raptors. They didn't have any stage fright at all during the regular season. They took the initiative to help the coach mobilize and keep his teammates focused, so as not to be chased by the Lakers within ten points.
Casey called a 60-second timeout this time, and the time ended quickly, and the players on both sides returned to the court.
Lowry received the serve from Valanciunas and started the first offensive round back from the timeout.Although the head coach did not arrange specific tactics, the experienced defender had already made a decision in his heart.
Scola put up the screen, played a pick-and-roll with Lowry, who was holding the ball at the top of the arc, and continued to attack the Lakers' defense with simple offensive methods.
Scola's screen quality was not high, Xu Tian easily dodged past him, and continued to defend Lowry, who was moving across the top of the arc.
Lowry didn't expect that Xu Tian could squeeze past Scola's screen, dribbled the ball laterally, and wanted to pass the ball to DeRozan, the team's most capable offensive player.But as soon as he looked up, he saw DeRozan's mentality exploded by George's tough defense.
Scola rushed to a position outside the zone reasonably, reached out to the confused point guard for the ball, and pulled him back from the darkness.
Lowry seemed to grasp the straw, passed the ball to his former Rockets big brother, and quietly retreated to the side to watch the performance.
Scola is nicknamed Diamond, which was given to him by domestic fans. The origin is that his surname is homonymous with four carats.
Diamond Scola, as an old man of the Rockets Yao Mai period, is well known by the majority of domestic Rockets fans, and looking back, he is the strongest inside partner in Yao Ming's career.To this extent, it is understandable that the Rockets have never been able to win the championship.
Even so, Diamond, who had experienced many battles, still played with ease in the face of little Nance.His dreamy footsteps appeared, dizzying Nance Jr., who had a positive attitude, and made a decisive shot on the rebound.
Four carats of diamonds!
52-67!
Xu Tian dribbled the ball across the half, and stood on the left side of the top of the arc according to Scott's arrangement. When George and Clarkson crossed and ran out of position, he decisively passed the ball to Clarkson who came out of the bag.
Clarkson's strength is not outstanding. Because of this, he became a person ignored by the Raptors' defensive arrangement. He successfully broke through to the basket and took the shot for granted.
Scola is experienced, judged the Lakers' offensive layout in advance, and blocked Clarkson's shot with a matchbox-like bounce.
Small steel cannon Lowry got the basketball and promoted a quick offensive and defensive transition.
Xu Tian followed closely behind Lowry, ready to reward him with a Chongqing hot pot at any time.
Lowry glanced at Xu Tian behind him from the corner of his eye, dribbled the ball to the basket without daring to make a shot, went around and returned to the top of the arc, and organized an attack with the dribble.
Scola realized that the Lakers didn't defend him. Taking advantage of the good opportunity, he got to the position again and reached out to Lowry for the ball.
In order to prevent Xu Tian from stealing, Lowry passed the lob to Scola inside.
Hibbert knew that Nance Jr. could not deal with the cunning Scola, so he took the initiative to move behind Nance Jr., ready to make up defense.
On the offensive end, Scola is not only good at dream dance. Seeing that Valanciunas under the basket had a chance, he passed the ball deftly.
Valanciunas dunked with a straight arm, shaking the Lakers' unguarded basket.
52-69!
Kenny Smith explained Valanciunas' goal with various exclamations, and then said: "Louis still has gas in the tank, and he can still ravage Nance in the paint, let the rookie understand that this is the NBA, not the NBA." Such an easy place to succeed!"
Barkley said: "The same rookie this year, the gap between Nance Jr. and Xu is not so big."
Xu Tian looked at the score when he dribbled the ball at halftime. Seeing that the Lakers were 17 points behind, he still didn't panic at all, and passed the ball to Clarkson who was standing at the free throw line.
Clarkson was dissatisfied with the performance of the last round. He dribbled the ball hard and took off in the penalty area without fear of physical confrontation, successfully fighting Scola's defensive foul.
Hibbert was the closest to the bottom line, walked over and pulled Clarkson up when he was down.
Clarkson stood on the free throw line, but he really didn't feel it, and both free throws missed.
Scola hit the big luck, easily picked up the basketball flying towards him, and firmly received the defensive rebound.
Lowry receives the ball from Scola, dribbles slowly across the half court, waits for his teammates to settle down and then dribbles to set up the offense.
Dewayne Casey watched the game quietly, saw Scola's offensive performance, and suddenly realized that he had put too much attention on the Lakers before, but forgot his own advantages.Realizing this, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Lowry is the team's on-field coach. He didn't have time to distract himself. He used the safest lob and passed the ball to Scola outside the penalty area again.
Scola turned a blind eye to Nance Jr.'s defense, launched a skillful dream dance, and easily gained shooting space.
BANK SHOT!Hit the board!
