Time to show off
Amid the cheers of nearly 20,000 people in the audience, the referee blew the whistle to start the game.
Oden still maintained his very good condition and defeated Hibbert in the jump ball decisive battle. The first attack of the opening was still from the Timberwolves, and the routine was still so familiar. Rubio handed the ball to Martin.
, Bennett, who had not yet gained a firm footing in the low position, quickly moved to the high position.
This time on defense, it was obvious that David West, who was facing Bennett, was a step slower to react. By the time Martin handed the basketball to Bennett, a mismatch had already formed. Facing Stephenson in front of him, Bennett
Te's three-point shot was very decisive.
The basketball did not disappoint everyone in the Timberwolves, and it fell into the basket very accurately.
This ball not only helped the Timberwolves score the first score of the opening game.
Vogel, who was also sitting on the sidelines, also frowned. Although he had watched the first two Timberwolves games and thought he knew Bennett Vogel very well, when he actually appeared in front of you, you would still
I was very surprised. What surprised me was not just the touch that Bennett showed. What really surprised Vogel was Bennett's timing of his shot and his decisiveness when he was already shooting. Vogel saw it.
Coming here requires a strong psychological quality.
The reason why Vogel frowned was because he really didn't understand how the Cavaliers managed such an excellent rookie to average less than one point per game.
The Pacers' next offense also used actual performance to tell everyone why they were able to rank first in the league.
Paul George faced Antetokounmpo, and after using continuous fake moves to deceive Antetokounmpo's center of gravity, he easily made a mid-range shot.
Both sides successfully scored in their first attack.
"Kenny, you see, this rookie can't guard Paul at all."
"Yes, but David on the Pacers side also failed to guard Anthony, a rookie." On the commentary desk, Barkley and Smith both had their own favorite teams for today's game.
The next few rounds seemed to verify Barkley and Smith's views. Neither side could prevent the other's scoring, and the score also increased alternately.
At 2 minutes and 04 seconds into the first quarter, Vogel called a timeout.
After the commentary was paused and the game restarted, Vogel also demonstrated his on-the-spot commanding ability with actual performance, facing Bennett who was in hot form and the Timberwolves' seemingly simple pick-and-roll attack.
Vogel also used his magic weapon during the timeout, that is, after Bennett mentioned the high pick-and-roll, the Pacers began to take the initiative to make substitutions. When the Pacers were defending, as long as Bennett was behind the pick-and-roll,
After receiving the ball, the defensive player in front of him immediately became Paul George.
In this way, Bennett's original advantages were well curbed.
The system does not give a 100% shooting rate, but Paul George has a very strong physical and height advantage. After the Pacers changed their defensive tactics, Bennett failed to score two consecutive shots.
And one of them was given a hot pot by Paul George.
As Paul George hit another mid-range shot, the time came to 3 minutes and 17 seconds.
At this time, the score between the two sides was 14 to 12, with the Pacers leading by two points.
At this time, the Timberwolves called a timeout.
Damn it, it was labor and management's turn to show off next. Smith, who was sitting next to Da Zhuang, watched in astonishment as his head coach stood up with a tactical board in his hands very excitedly.
Smith was stunned! Da Zhuang gave the confused Smith a disdainful look.
Sample! Let me show you what it means to appear holy in front of others, and what is the most deadly thing about pretending to be invisible. At this moment, Da Zhuang felt that he was missing two apertures behind his head.
"Oh, God, Charles, what did we see? Chen stood up with a tactical board. God, this is a rare sight."
"No, it's not rare. It has never happened before this season. It seems that Chen is very serious about this game."
"Zhang pointed out, it seems that this timeout was called by Brother Zhuang. This is rare in the Timberwolves game, and he also held a tactical board. According to my memory, this should be the first time this season."
"Yes, it's the first time, but this timeout was indeed called very timely and very reasonable. Although we don't know what changes will happen to the Timberwolves in the future, we can see from this timeout that Coach Chen is still very professional.
"
It’s not surprising to everyone. He is a head coach. He has played 15 games and his butt has not left the stool from the beginning to the end. It is as if the stool belongs to him. If he does not sit for 48 minutes, he will lose money.
While everyone was discussing this, Smith, who was standing behind Dazhuang, wanted to cover his eyes and stay away from Chen Dazhuang. He didn't want to see or hear this.
Chen Dazhuang's tactics of appearing before others are very simple.
It is to let Bennett receive the ball after the pick-and-roll and face Paul George, then hand the ball to Martin or Antetokounmpo. For these two people, it is even simpler, just let them shoot.
"Just shoot if you catch the ball for me. Don't hesitate. Do you hear me? Shoot them to death. Shoot them to death for me. Don't worry. I believe in you. You must also believe in yourself. Guys, remember today. Remember today."
In this game, this will be your famous game, you will defeat the number one player in the league, do you understand?"
During the entire 100-second pause, what Chen Dazhuang said was 20% tactics and 80% chicken soup.
As for the tactical board, what left Smith speechless was that the cap of the drawing pen was not opened.
Smith really couldn't figure out what to do with it if you didn't use it.
At this time, Barkley and Smith, who were sitting on the commentary table, also saw this.
"Kenny, have you noticed that Chen seems to have never used the tactical board while holding it? Why is that?"
"I don't know, is it because we didn't notice it after using it? Maybe it's a habit?"
"No, I'm sure I haven't used it. Habit? Is there such a habit?"
When the 100-second timeout expired, the players from both sides returned to the court. Vogel on the other side also stood on the sidelines with a serious expression. He wanted to see what kind of tactics the opponent had deployed to deal with him.
But after sitting down here, Smith couldn't help but ask the questions in his heart.
"Chen, you don't use it, what are you doing with it?"
MLGB, you don't know which pot to mention, right? Can I tell you that I totally forgot? Can I tell you that I'm just looking for a prop to show off?
"You don't understand, this is also a tactic."
"Tactics? Really?"
"Okay, okay, why do you pay attention to such a small thing? Let's watch the game!"
As the referee blew his whistle, the names of Martin and Antetokounmpo appeared under the BUFF in the big system, followed by a five-minute countdown.
Tickets cannot be stopped!!!!
