Chapter 870 Box-and-one tactics reproduce the arena

The Hawks are determined to win the playoffs, especially Paul's paranoid one. After snatching the Best Rookie trophy from Deron last season, he wanted the Hawks to crush the Jazz in all aspects this season. However, the Jazz's record in the Western Conference is much better than the Hawks. Part of the reason is that Sloan's attainments are above Mike Woodson, and their lineup structure is more reasonable than the Hawks. The Hawks have no physical talent, but defense, except for Paul and Sheldon Williams, the defense of others is very average.

Fortunately, except for Li Lei, they don’t have many strong defense players, but Mike Woodson knows very well that Li Lei is the kind of person who uses five people as one person.

The starting point of the Hawks in this game was no different from before point guard Paul, point guard Josh Chaidris, small forward Josh Smith, power forward Yi Jianlian, center Sheldon Williams. Although the landlord in the fifth position is average in height, this guy is not inferior to any league inside in terms of strength. It has a bit of Hayes' meaning, but on the offensive end he is a little stronger than Hayes.

Although Yi Jianlian greeted Li Lei and Yao Ming before this game, he was extremely cruel on the court. At the first goal of the game, he made a pick-and-roll for Paul at the high position. Li Lei's cover was still very good. Paul then passed by. Li Lei did not hit him. Roy took the initiative to make up for Paul. However, Yi Jianlian started running to the basket at this time, and Paul did not continue to entangle with Roy. He shook his wrist and the ball flew towards the basket. Yi Jianlian, who had already reached the three-second zone, jumped one-on-one and got the ball, and smashed it directly into the basket with a bang.

The Zen master did not substitution on the sidelines. Yi Jianlian is an alien in the league at present. He is more special than Nowitzki. In addition to shooting, this guy is very keen on aerial relay with Paul, and compared to Ade, he is much more traditional.

The Bulls' offensive round? The Hawks are guarding the man on the man? But Paul and Josh Chaidris will come to interfere with Li Lei at any time. Mike Woodson knows it very well? The general guarding cannot stop this great devil? If James represents the peak of strength and technology, then Li Lei is a combination of technology and IQ.

Li Lei did not pass the ball at the first time? Instead, he jumped up, Paul did not jump? Instead, he approached Li Lei? Josh Chaidris jumped up. His target was the ball in Li Lei's hand and his ability to stagnate the air. Josh Chaidris thought he was not inferior to Li Lei? But when he jumped up and started to fall, he realized that he was embarrassed. Li Lei was still floating in the air. Without any adjustment, he directly threw the ball out.

Seeing Li Lei scored, Mike Woodson became fierce. He changed his tactics next? Use box-and-one, which is the legendary one-point four-way defense. Although Paul's height and wingspan are not as good as Li Lei? But what did not embarrass Woodson was that the Hawks' best defense on the outside was him. Josh Chaidrisri could only rank second? This was so embarrassing.

Back then, the Raptors used this trick to deal with Curry who lacked helpers and achieved miraculous results, and could deal with Li Lei? That's another story? Li Lei's overall view is something Curry doesn't have? Although Curry's pass is also good, after all, he is just a scoring point guard, while Li Lei coexists with organization and scoring. So why hasn't a single successor in Li Lei played in recent years? This is the direct reason.

When Li Lei dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Paul forced him up, and Josh Smith, Chaidris and the landlord also came over. Li Lei took a step back and threw the ball high. The curve of the ball was really not very high.

"Wow, I really didn't expect that a simple tactic like box-and-one could be seen on the NBA stage, but is it really effective for Bruce?" Everyone thought it was a shot, and it would definitely be an airball.

But when the ball came near the basket, Ade suddenly jumped up and Yi Jianlian also jumped, but he was still one step late. With a bang, Ade returned Yi Jianlian to an air relay.

The entire joint center became quiet because it was too incredible. Li Lei could pass the ball without seeing his teammates through the attack of four people.

Mike Woodson did not look anxious on the sidelines. He felt that the ball just now was just an accident. If you give Li Lei such a chance, it would definitely be a mistake.

In the attack on the Hawks, the Bulls' defense is still aiming at people. The Zen master will not like Mike Woodson, like to play some very special tactics. Before Paul came out of the half, Li Lei forced him up. Paul retreated, changed hands, followed by a gorgeous turn, and passed Li Lei, but the ball in his hand was also lightly cut off by Li Lei at this time. Li Lei slapped the ball to the backcourt and made a layup easily.

Mike Woodson's eyes narrowed. If Paul had been targeted by Li Lei like this, then the box-and-one tactics would not have been possible, because Li Lei only needed to steal continuously. No one dared to doubt Li Lei's steal level, because many games have proved that his attainment in steals is no worse than that of historical steal king Elvin Robertson.

Paul was helpless and dribbled from the backcourt again. Li Lei forced him up again, but fortunately, Josh Chaidris came to pick him up from the backcourt this time, but Li Lei didn't care about that guy and continued to fight with Paul.

Although Paul had many small moves, every time he acted, Li Lei would dodge cleverly. In addition to avoiding, he would make a violent impact on Paul. Although Jordan was not known for his strength, his balanced strength would naturally not be too bad. Paul did not expect that Li Lei was so powerful that he almost fell to the ground with a staggering moment. Josh Chaidris' pass was very average, and this was Li Lei's purpose, so that Paul would not easily receive the ball. Anyone of the Eagles could organize it.

The Hawks' offense became fragmented. On the defensive end, they still used box-and-one to restrict Li Lei, but Li Lei used the incredible pass to resolve it every time. After three quarters, this tactic did not make a mistake. On the contrary, the Hawks, the people who performed the tactics, not only had to double-team Li Lei, but also had to return to defense, which was very tired.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Hawks and the others were really dragged down. Li Lei began his performance on the outside. He scored 20 points in a single quarter and led the Bulls to defeat the Hawks at home. Mike Woodson's box-and-one tactics caused trouble for Li Lei, but still did not take away the victory. In the whole game, Li Lei scored 32 points, 19 assists, 8 steals, and 3 blocks.
