The players from both teams returned to the bench and began to wipe their sweat. He drank a Gatorade sports drink and took a short break.
"Hey, Gerrard, you did well in these two and a half minutes. Especially that time when he saved the ball. "You're the most efficient player, 4 out of 6." Shen Xiao praised him first and was not stingy with his praise.
"Williams, you've just recovered from your injury. Relax, don't be nervous, don't think about the score. Try to pass the ball as much as possible and let your teammates score more points.”
"Ma Xin, your defense today was very good. Especially when it comes to rebounding and blocking."
Shen Xiao held the tactical board in his hand and commented on the characteristics of all the starting players today, mainly with encouraging words.
"That's what we're going to do. We're going to cross cover through a lot of running without the ball.”
"Williams, you and Ma Xin can try to cover from a high position. He obtained a pick-and-roll opportunity, entered the three-second zone, and made a mid-range shot.”
"At the same time, if the opponent's players double team to assist in defense. Just pass the ball to Battier or Lagabale.”Shen Xiao squatted down and began to draw offensive tactics on the tactical board. One was a high pick-and-roll, and the other was a three-point line from the bottom corner.
Mo Williams nodded and took a deep breath.
Soon, the 60-second pause ended and the players from both teams returned to the field.
The Cavaliers had the ball. Mo Williams threw the sideline ball to Battier. Battier passed it to Lagabel.
Galabelle looked at Charlie Ward, who had run over to help defend. He dribbled under his crotch and suddenly took a step back to make a fadeaway jump shot.
Charlie was shocked and jumped up to block the ball. His fingers were still one centimeter away from the ball.
Shua ~!
The basketball went into the net, and Bale lost his balance and fell to the ground from behind.
"Wow! Oh my god, a wonderful three-point goal by Raja Bell, an undrafted player.”
On the commentary platform of ESPM, commentator Bu Lang let out a high-pitched scream.
Sitting in the audience behind the home team's bench, the four Cavaliers 'starting lineup players stood up excitedly and high-fived in celebration when they saw such a wonderful goal.
"Beautiful! It's great."
"Le Bu Lang, we have a chance of entering Dong Jue!”Nash was very excited and hugged James.
"Yes, Steve, we will.”James's face revealed a hint of anticipation.
He was looking forward to being led by Shen Xiao. The entire team had a chemical effect.
………
During the transition between offense and defense, Raja Bale accidentally kicked Alan Houston when he was defending. The referee blew a defensive foul and sent him to the free throw line.
Alan Houston made a free throw.
Battier then passed the ball to Gerrard. Gerrard broke through with the ball, carried the explosive bag, and rushed inside to meet the opponent's center forward, Auseraton. He turned around and glided, and when he lost his center of gravity, he threw the ball into the blue box.
Gerrard fell heavily to the ground, scaring the cameraman on the sidelines. He quickly picked up his equipment and tried to dodge.
"Hurry up and take a look! Is Gerrard injured?"
Shen Xiao suddenly stood up and walked to the technical desk. He pointed at Mo Williams in the backfield and instructed him to go over.
The next second, Gerrard stood up as if nothing had happened. He patted the dust off his body and looked relaxed.
As the score rose, the New York Knicks team's sense of touch gradually warmed up, and they all threw and scored.
There were still 3:17 seconds left in the first period. Shen Xiao stood up and walked to the technical desk, requesting the first 100-second pause in the first period.
The scoreboard on the big screen showed the Knicks 15-29 Cavaliers.
"Hey, guys, you defended well just now. Especially Battier, who was very determined when he made those two three-pointers at the critical moment.”Shen Xiao stood up and took the initiative to praise Battier.
"Thank you, Coach. Battier sat on the bench with a towel over his head. He was very humble.
"How about this, later…Gortat, you go down and rest for a while. Gordon, you're up. Run without the ball, cut through the air and run out to the outside line to attract the attention of the opposing defenders.”
Shen Xiao made a risky move and directly replaced the center forward with Ben Gordon, a shooting dual energy guard.
The tallest players in the game were Battier and Gerrard Wallace.
"Gerrard, your three-pointer percentage is not high. For the next three minutes, you will mainly be defending, blocking shots, and getting the rebound.”Shen Xiao walked in front of Gerrard and advised him earnestly.
"Alright, the next strategy is to quickly rush across the court after receiving the ball and shoot a three-pointer.”
The four small players all had the ability to shoot three-pointers, and their field goal percentage was not low either. Under interference, they each had a 36% chance of getting off the field.
It was equivalent to moving Gerrard Wallace to the fourth position. It was similar to the future Dream Chaser Grimm.
As soon as the time-out ended, the commentators of ESPM and Central Five saw the Cavaliers change their lineup. They replaced the center, Maxin Gortat, with the shooting guard, Ben Gordon.
“Oh,myGod! Shen Ye was too crazy. He actually sent out a lineup of five small players.”Eleena, the ESPM commentator, was wearing headphones and her hair was wavy as she looked at the list of players on the field.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the head coach of the Cavaliers is starting to change his formation. They sent out five small players and no center forward in the traditional sense.”
Yang Yi and Weiping Bryant sat in the commentators 'seats and shouted through their headphones.
……
The game restarted, and the Knicks threw the ball out of bounds.
Alan Houston controlled the ball, and Ben Gordon and Battier actually rushed up to double-team at the same time. Four arms pushed Alan to the sidelines.
Alan held the ball with both hands and could not pass it at all. He could only forcefully throw it into the air.
Beep beep!
The referee blew the whistle and ruled that Alan had stepped on the line, and the ball went to the Knights.
Ben Gordon served, Battier received the ball, and when he saw Alan rush forward to snatch, he passed the ball to the ground and passed it past his crotch. Gerrard Wallace ran over, caught the ball, looked at the court, and immediately passed it to Mo Williams on the right side of the three-point line.
He received the ball and threw it, chasing for three points!
Whoosh. Hollow Net.
Charlie Ward scored a three-pointer at the top of the three-point line, and Chris Van Horn assisted his teammate and got an assist.
The pace of the game changed quickly. With Gerrard's defense in the paint, he blocked three consecutive shots and grabbed the rebound. He passed the ball to Battier, who directly made a long pass.
Gordon and Williams scored six points in a row.
The entire attack was like flowing water, and the attack was like mercury pouring down.
The difference in points instantly widened. The Knicks 18 - 38 Cavaliers, a full 20 points difference!
The head coach of the New York Knicks, Don Cheney, was really helpless. He could only call another short pause.
The knight's momentum had already soared. If he didn't call for a pause, it would turn into a defeat.
Although the Knicks were a terrible team, they couldn't lose too badly.
……
Soon, the first period of the competition ended.
The New York Knicks were 22-40 against the Cavaliers, and the gap was back to within 20 points.
Alan Houston played 3 1 on the outside, forcing the Knicks to live.
…………
In the second quarter, Shen Xiao changed the lineup again. He replaced Gerrard Wallace with the newly traded small forward Kyle Korver, the rookie at the end of the second round this year. He wanted to see if his three-point shooting rate could shine in the NBA.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Mo Williams was on the outside line. He broke through with the ball and entered the three-second zone. He was sandwiched by the two Knicks. He was about to pass the ball when he saw from the corner of his eye that there was a home team's golden jersey on the three-point line on the right corner. He did not hesitate to pass the ball.
Kyle Korver was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he realized that a defender had already pounced on him to block the ball. He jumped up and pulled out a three-pointer!
Swoosh!
The basketball flew in a beautiful parabola and entered the blue hoop.
Changing offense and defense, Korver was easily broken through by Charlie Ward. Battier quickly came over to fill in the defense.
The ball was passed to Alan Houston, who scored with a small toss.
On the bench, the camera was focused on Shen Xiao. He found that he was expressionless as he turned around to talk to Olajuwon.
"Hakeem, I told you. We're definitely going to win this game."
"Shen, that young man's defense isn't good.”Olajuwon immediately saw through Korver's problem.
"I know. I just want to see if his three-pointers can adapt to the rhythm of the league.”Shen Xiao nodded slightly as if he did not care.
After all, Knight Ace Mecha Clan was in the lead.
As soon as he finished speaking, Korver received the ball from the outside and scored a three-pointer!
Then, in less than three seconds, Korver was easily bypassed again, and Alan Houston scored two points.
On the defensive end, Korver was beaten into a sieve. However, on the offensive end, he made 3 out of 5 three-pointers, a high 43.6% field goal percentage.
The whistle sounded in the second quarter, and the game ended. It was halftime.
The scoreboard showed the Knicks 42-57.
