Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 673: Positive Hawes

"The first is defense." Assistant Luke said: "The opponent's inside strong point is only David Lee, and David Lee's height is only 206cm, we have the advantage in the inside height." He said, he watched. To Speights and Hawes, "Sbeates and Hawes, you are both higher than the other side's inside line, if you still can't protect the rebounds, you can't justify it."

Without waiting for Speights to speak, Hawes has already said: "Don't worry, coach, I will definitely protect the rebounds."

The head coach was replaced and Hawes returned to the starting lineup. After experiencing the "trading turmoil", Hawes now has the feeling of being left behind. He wants to perform well.

He doesn't want to experience another "trading storm".

"Guaranteed to complete the task." Speights also said.

The Warriors’ regular starting lineup is David Lee, Luis Amundson, Dorell White, Monta Ellis, Stephen Curry, and both David Lee and Amundson are tall 206cm, White is 201cm tall, Ellis and Curry are both 191cm tall, and they have no height advantage inside.

Therefore, Speights still has confidence in the inside combination of Lee and Edmundson, at least confident in rebounding, after all, height has an advantage.

"Yeah." Coach Luke nodded, then looked at Qin Hao and Iguodala, Brand, "Iguodala, you have to guard against Ellis, you are taller than him, you have to take advantage of this. Be careful of his breakthrough. And Qin, Brand, you have to defend well."

The three agreed in unison.

Then coach Luke spread out the tactical board and said: "On offense, we have to attack the inside line more and take advantage of the opponent's inside line's height disadvantage. Also, we must fight back more and try to avoid getting into positional warfare."

Qin Hao frowned slightly, glanced at the Warriors side, and said: "Coach, the Warriors' starting lineup is not slow, and counterattack with them may become an offensive against offensive game."

Coach Luke laughed and said: "What does it matter? Are we afraid that they won't be able to attack by attacking? As long as we protect the rebounds, we have an advantage."

Upon hearing this, Qin Hao suddenly laughed.

Against the Warriors, the 76ers have a great advantage in height. Hawes and Speights on the inside are taller than each other, and Brand is a little taller than White. Qin Hao and Iguodala are both taller. 198cm, several centimeters higher than Curry and Ellis.

Under this premise, the 76ers have an advantage in rebounding, and in a game of offensive against offense and quick counterattack, whoever has the advantage of rebounding can have the upper hand.

After some arrangement, Coach Luke waved his hand: "Go!"

"Yes." A few people promised and walked towards the court.

Seeing the players step onto the field, Coach Luke exhaled. For the first time he led the team as the head coach, he was still a little nervous. Fortunately, it was against the Warriors today.

Not far away, Warriors players also came to the court.

David Lee, Luis Amundson, Dorell White, Monta Ellis, Stephen Curry, the Warriors are still their regular starters.

Both sides jumped the ball. Hawes was full of energy today. He slapped the ball to the backcourt. Qin Hao controlled the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt. Curry greeted him, and the two looked at each other. Qin Hao smiled slightly, and then A change of direction accelerates.

"So fast." Curry's heart jumped and he hurried back.

But it was too late.

Defense has not always been Curry’s strong point. When he participated in the NBA draft, he was due to his lack of physical fitness and the defensive end may become a loophole. Therefore, many scouts looked down upon him and believed that he did not have the ability to play NBA. Adapt to the nba game and confrontation.

Although Curry quickly proved himself after entering the NBA, he averaged 17 points per game in the rookie game. This season, he has improved again, averaging 18.5 points per game, in addition to 5.8 assists, showing excellent scoring. And good organizational skills.

But on defense, he is indeed lacking.

With a swish, Qin Hao rushed past Curry.

After a change of direction after Curry, Qin Hao rushed to the inside and jumped up to meet David Lee, holding the basketball in his right hand and throwing it to the hoop. David Lee subconsciously swooped, trying to block the shot, but he couldn't touch it. ball.

哐!

A loud noise came from behind, and David Li's heart was shocked, knowing that he had been fooled, Qin Hao was not a throw, it was a pass.

Behind, Hawes hung the frame with his hands and shouted excitedly.

During this time, Hawes had a terrible life. He was worried every day, worried that he was being traded, and was almost depressed.

After this empty dunk, he felt much more comfortable, and he couldn't help shouting loudly, with a smile on his face, ran to Qin Hao, and high-five Qin Hao: "It's a beautiful pass."

Qin Hao nodded: "Precautions are good."

Hawes repeatedly agreed.

However, Qin Hao has little confidence in whether he can guard David Lee. Although David Lee is only 206cm tall, he is excellent in both scoring ability and rebounding ability. Last season he averaged 20.2 per game. Points, 11.7 rebounds in double-double data, and was selected to the All-Star bench.

Although this season David Lee has declined due to injury, his scoring average has dropped to 16 points per game, and his rebounding average is only a few points per game, falling to single digits, but Hawes has to defend one or all last year. For a star-level player, Qin Hao felt that this was too difficult.

But instead of Qin Hao's expectation, he switched from offense to defense. David Lee took the ball and singled Hawes in the low post. He wanted to return one, but Hawes was prevented.

Hawes was very positive today. David Lee’s jumper was interrupted by him, and the basketball bounced out. Speights stuck Amundson and prevented the opponent from jumping. Iguodala seized the opportunity. He grabbed the rebound and passed it to Qin Hao immediately.

"Fight back!"

Qin Hao shouted and quickly launched a counterattack.

The 76ers counterattacked quickly, and the Warriors retired quickly. They came to the frontcourt in a blink of an eye. Qin Hao took a look at the situation on the court. Curry, Ellis, White, and Edmundson have all finished their retreat. Defense, this time the defense speed surprised him a bit.

On the 76ers side, besides him are Iguodala and Brand.

That's 3 to 4.

"Do you want to fight?" Qin Hao hesitated for a moment, and then decided to play, passing the ball to Iguodala, and then immediately cut through the air, using his speed to throw away Curry, and yelled at Iguodala, "The ball ."

Whoosh!

The ball passed, Qin Hao grabbed the ball and rushed to the basket. Edmundson and White were in front of him. Qin Hao was one-to-two, but Edmondson was only 206cm tall, so Qin Hao was so determined.

"Huh." Edmundson jumped up, trying to block.

White also jumped up, and the two of them waved their arms together, trying to block Qin Hao, but Qin Hao suddenly retracted the ball, and pulled a rod in the air to avoid the two of them. Block the ball and send the ball out of the gap between the two.
