Chapter 455
Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt, and Marbury immediately posted up, with a good defensive attitude, Liu Mang thought it would be Marion, since it was Marbury, then Liu Mang was not polite.
Seeing Marbury sticking so tightly, Liu Mang deliberately tilted his body forward and pressed on it.
The fans at the scene exclaimed when they saw Liu Mang's action. Marbury was also shocked by this action. This is the rhythm of cheating fouls! This shameless man's foul play has long been famous! Marbury quickly escaped.
It's now!
Liu Mang rushed out following the pressing action, and immediately threw Marbury beside him. Marbury wanted to press up and use his strength to hinder Liu Mang. Liu Mang supported his left elbow and held Marbury back. Open, slip into the inside line, grab the ball and jump out, take the first step with your left foot!
too suddenly!
Zacharydis is a two-meter-one-eight tall man in slow motion. Although he was ready to defend inside, he didn't expect Marbury to "get out of the way" and let Liu Mang break through. He rushed over, Liu Mang After taking the first step, the movement slowed down, and then he suddenly took the second step with his right foot. Both Zacharydis and Marbury thought that Liu Mang would change direction. Liu Mang's weird and unpredictable European-like step was his Another stunt besides drawing fouls.
Both Marbury and Zacharydis waited for Liu Mang to change direction, but Liu Mang took advantage of the trend and made a layup with the same hands and feet!
At this moment, the actions of Liu Mang Iverson, Dragic, and Kyle Anderson merged into one, and the ball flew out of his hand, hit the backboard and bounced into the basket.
It was all in an instant, and the fans let out a disappointed "Oh..." when they saw Liu Mang's successful layup.
And Marbury and Zacharydis were both confused, which one is a fake move and which one is a real move!
The Suns, except for Sean Marion, are all offensively strong and defensively weak, and defense relies on intuition.
Liu Mang is indeed going to raise the number of assists first today, but first he must show his offensive threat.
Offensive and defensive transition, the Suns attack.
Marbury pushed forward and continued to break through, this is really unstoppable! Liu Mang was swayed away by a change of direction again, and was thrown aside by Marbury in just a split second.
This time, Raheem came to defend immediately and pinched Marbury with Liu Mang. At this time, Marion, who was in the middle distance on the left, sharply cut to the basket, and Marbury lobbed the ball!
Muhammad reacted quickly and went up to block Marion. It has to be said that Marbury has been criticized even for what he is good at, that is, his assist-to-turnover ratio cannot be regarded as a first-class organizer at all. With so many assists, he is far behind Stockton and Paul, who have a 4-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio. Marbury averaged 8 assists per game this year, and the number of turnovers is close to 4.
Marion was blocked by Muhammad. Seeing that Marbury's lob was about to fly out of bounds, but Stoudemire, who was still opening up space on the right baseline, seemed to be stepping on hot wheels. He rushed in quickly, jumped up with astonishing speed, stretched his hand forward with all his strength, and caught the ball! And took advantage of the trend to pull back and smash the ball into the basket!
Empty back buckle!
Stoudemire rushed in from the middle distance on the right baseline and grabbed the ball in the air. He used an angle where he could not see the basket at all, and his back was completely facing the basket.
Simply! Liu Mang just turned his head to see who Marbury passed the ball to. When he saw Marion blocked by Muhammad, he thought that Marbury made a mistake, but he did not expect to see such an amazing scene!
Stoudemire, this physical fitness is simply a monster!
The ball cannot be blamed on Muhammad for missing someone. Just now the Suns tried to open the basket for Marbury to break through. Only Zacharydis stood on the right side of the three-second zone to respond at any time. Ratliff and Muhammad Hammad is on the right side of the three-second zone ready to defend and grab rebounds at any time, and Stoudemire is left alone on the bottom line on the right side. Judging from the pre-match scouting report and some video clips, Stoudemire Er has no shooting ability, and now he is just a rookie who relies on his physical fitness to eat in the paint. He is not even good at face-up singles. After all, he just graduated from high school and his skills have not yet been developed.
If Muhammad continued to guard the right side of the three-second zone just now, he could have blocked Stoudemire when he rushed in, but Marion had already scored.
Moreover, who would have thought that with such a long distance and such a difficult catching posture, someone could still successfully catch the ball! Normally, even if Stoudemire saves the ball, Ratliff can cover him after landing. Who would have thought that Stoudemire's physical fitness is so explosive that he is not like a normal person! That's it!
"Amare Stoudemire, ability value 75, offense 87, defense 63, three-pointer 55, mid-range shooting 49, layup 95, speed 87, strength 84, explosiveness 97, jumping 91..."
This physical fitness, this bouncing, it's unreasonable! After receiving the serve, Liu Mang pushed forward amid the sound of the fans shouting and defending, while looking at Stoudemire's ability value, and cursed inwardly, it's unreasonable. This explosive power and jumping were picked out separately like his jumping Yes, there is another power forward who is 2.08 meters and has a speed of 87! Only slightly slower than Raheem! The ability value of 75 is also the ability value of the No. 1 pick in this era. It is comparable to Yao Ming.
However, it is too obvious that the offense is strong and the defense is weak. The difference between offense and defense is more than 20 points. Liu Mang has an idea...
After advancing to the frontcourt, Liu Mang immediately gestured for Muhammad to come out for a pick-and-roll. Muhammad came out to help Liu Mang block Marbury. Stoudemire, who came out to defend against the pick-and-roll, did not know what to do. He rushed up and reached out to steal it. Marbury bypassed Ratliff and quickly blocked him. Together with Stoudemire, he flanked Liu Mang. , but Stoudemire stretched out his hand to steal it, Liu Mang dodged it, and rushed into the basket from the right! At this time, Stoudemire, Marbury, Zacharydis, and Ratliff blocked the right side of the three-second zone, and Liu Mang threw the ball to the left of the basket!
After helping Liu Mang block, Muhammad immediately cut into the inside line and received Liu Mang's point ball and flew the ball into the basket!
That's it, the Suns' defense is even worse than expected!
Liu Mang saw that except for Marbury with 70 defense and Sean Marion with 85 defense, and everyone else's defense was less than 65, he was sure that the Suns' defense was sloppy, not after Nash came. It's always been so scumbag, winning depends on offense.
As for why the Suns are now in the middle of the league in scoring and conceding points per game, averaging 95 points per game and losing 94 points per game, the reason is very simple, because they have been playing positions, trying to slow down the rhythm and improve defense. Substantial role!
Liu Mang took a look, since the opponent didn't defend and it was so difficult to defend against Marbury, then start the confrontation mode!
