NBA: Best point guard

Chapter 177 Death 5 Small Flaws

Throughout the first half, the Cavalry's "Death Five" lineup completely suppressed the University of North Carolina Tar Heels.

At halftime, the Cavaliers were 45 to 30, leading by 15 points.

Although An Zuo believes that this extreme lineup will have a surprise effect, he is trying to form this "death five" lineup. If the effect is not good, he will definitely replace the lineup immediately, and he dare not delay for a moment.

But to his surprise, the effect of this lineup turned out to be surprisingly good, far beyond his expectations.

An Zuo thinks that this is a bit of a blessing in disguise, losing two main inside players, but finding a tactic that is more suitable for the Cavalry.

Sometimes life is so amazing.

In fact, Zhao Qiang believes that one of the fundamental reasons why the cavalry team is very suitable for playing five small tactics is that this team is a three-point team in this era, and several people still have the ability to dominate the ball.

This is simply a simplified version of the Golden State Warriors.

However, Zhao Qiang also understands that the "Death Five" lineup is only suitable for the current stage or the last 5 minutes of the decisive stage. If it is used for a long time, it will still have certain negative effects. After all, the old iron does not have "chasing eggs" Green That ability to dominate the ball and DPOY-level defensive ability.

After a brief adjustment in the midfield, the players of both sides returned to the playing field, and the game in the second half was about to start.

Zhao Qiang looked at his teammates around him, and he knew that what he was worried about had finally happened.

As soon as the second half started, An Zuo dispatched the "Death Five" lineup in an attempt to further widen the point difference, so that the game entered garbage time early, so that the players could rest earlier.

The first attack in the second half was launched by the cavalry, and Xiaode advanced with the ball from the backcourt.

While holding the ball, Xiaode observed the opponent's position. He found that Aogu had changed back to defending in the pit and stopped pulling out to defend the old iron.

This is the tactical arrangement changed by the head coach of the Tar Heels of the University of North Carolina. He believes that instead of letting Ogura come out to defend and leave the inside empty, it is better to stick to the inside and bet that the Cavaliers' outside feel will decline.

He didn't believe that the Cavaliers could shoot such a high percentage of three-pointers throughout the game.

Xiaode looked at Aogu squatting inside, without the slightest hesitation, he immediately passed the basketball to Lao Tie who was squatting in the corner.

After Lao Tie received the basketball, the forward players of the University of North Carolina Tar Heels also quickly came to assist in the defense. Although his defensive deterrence was not as strong as that of Aogu, he could still provide some "physical damage".

Lao Tie didn't hit a shot this time, and even almost made a three-point shot.

With no one on the Cavaliers fighting for the rebound, Ogu took it off with ease, and he thinks it was the easiest rebound he's ever pulled off in his life.

After Ogu took off the rebound, he immediately passed the basketball to Thompson, who quickly advanced with the ball.

Thompson waited until Ogu had come to the basket, and immediately passed the basketball to him. Aogu lived up to expectations, and he made an easy dunk across the old iron, which was regarded as a sulking in the first half.

Aogu successfully dunked the old iron, which once again ignited the enthusiasm of the fans in the audience, and every student cheered.

In the next round, the cavalry team still had trouble attacking. Brown caught the ball and shot from the outside, which also ended in a strike.

Obviously, at the beginning of the second half, the Cavalry's three-point shooting rate dropped significantly, and the University of North Carolina Tar Heels gradually adapted to the Cavalry's "Death Five" lineup, and gradually began to work hard. , successfully reduced the difference to single digits.

Only 2 minutes into the second half, An Zuo had to call a timeout to suspend the offensive momentum of the University of North Carolina Tar Heels.

Although An Zuo expected that the cavalry's three-point shooting rate would drop in the second half, he didn't expect it to drop so badly that he didn't make a single goal within 2 minutes.

This is a completely different team from the cavalry team that fired all arrows in the first half.

When An Zuo thought of this, he felt a headache. At this point, he had to choose another cup of "poison", and sent Chris and Richardson to increase the height of the inside and improve the ability to grab rebounds.

While drinking energy drinks, Zhao Qiang listened to Anzuo's new tactics. Zhao Qiang had already thought about the difficult situation in the second half. He knew that with the current cavalry players' ability, there was no way to use the "Death Five" lineup for a long time.

If used for a long time, it will only be counterproductive.

The timeout ends and the game restarts.

At this time, the cavalry lineup on the field:

Point guard Xiaode

Zhao Qiang

small forward dooling

power forward richardson

center chris

This lineup instantly raised the average height of the cavalry team by nearly 10 centimeters...

After the Cavalry changed to the regular lineup, the offensive firepower would be concentrated on Zhao Qiang and Du Lin. The head coach of the University of North Carolina Tar Heels had already predicted this and immediately sent players to double-team Zhao Qiang.

Although Zhao Qiang has always played in points, his ability to play the ball is not weak. Whenever the opponent double-teams him, Zhao Qiang can pass the basketball to Du Lin on the other side first.

The more critical moments Du Lin gets to, the more powerful he is, he deserves to be the man nicknamed "Adu".

Du Lin made two open three-pointers, all hits, and he directly raised the knife!

The cavalry team also opened the point difference to 11 points again through Du Lin's two three-pointers, which can be regarded as a success in stabilizing the situation.

On the defensive end, though, the Cavalry were clearly not so lucky.

Although the old iron can't limit August's offense very well, the replaced Chris also has limited defensive effect.

Chris defended twice with a single soldier, but he was blasted by Aogu's hammer. His body couldn't bear the impact of Aogu at all.

Chris was also extremely depressed about this. He finally got the chance to play, but he didn't expect that he played so badly.

This time the cavalry team attacked, and Zhao Qiang initiated the attack. Because Thompson was afraid of Zhao Qiang's shooting ability, he didn't dare to take a step at all, and always kept close to the defense.

This gave Zhao Qiang a very good opportunity to break through. After all, Thompson's athletic talent is limited, and his defensive steps are not very fast.

Zhao Qiang made two simple changes of direction, and then followed up with a move called "Buddha", which immediately knocked Thompson out.

After Zhao Qiang broke through Thompson's defense, he went straight to the basket. Facing the "behemoth" Aogu's defense, Zhao Qiang continued to show his throwing skills, surpassed Aogu's defense, and successfully scored the goal.

Zhao Qiang's whole set of offensive moves was smooth and coherent, which surprised Jordan, who was watching the game off the court. He thought Zhao Qiang was just a pure shooter, but he didn't expect that his breakthrough ability was also quite strong.

Jordan suddenly became interested in the player Zhao Qiang.
