v3 Chapter 646： Chemical reaction with catalyst

After the opening ceremony, the starters of the two teams appeared one after another.

The Pelicans side is the regular lineup, the only change is that Jokic replaced Whiteside as the starting.

On the Knicks side, Calderon and Tim Hardaway Jr. are outside, Anthony and Bagnani are on the front line, and Howard is the center.

Howard jumped over Davis, giving the Knicks a chance to lead the offensive.

Calderon dribbled to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Howard singles.

Howard has played second only to the peak of the Magic this season in the Knicks.

In addition to recovering from a good back injury, the more important point is that the ball has more power and makes playing happier.

He jerked Jokic into the basket and turned the hook.

The hard hook straight up and down, the technique is still rough, the basketball hit the edge of the hoop and bounced.

However, Jokic's weight loss has not yet been completed, and he was below the overall level when confronting Howard.

Howard pressed Jokic to take offensive rebounds and make up two rebounds.

The sidelines were agitated.

Jokic's defense is a little worse than Whiteside's.

Sure enough, the absence of Whiteside had a great impact on the Pelicans.

However, Jokic did not have any emotional fluctuations due to a failed defense.

Just like Tang Tian knew before, although it seems to be white and soft, his temperament on the court is very tough.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt. As soon as Tang Tian held the ball, Hardaway defended, and Anthony on the weak side assisted in defense.

Tang Tian cut three 50+ games in a row before the All-Star game, and now this way of defense is his standard.

He passed the ball to Ariza.

The Knicks team defense rotation is relatively fast, Ariza did not show up on the phone, and returned the ball to Tang Tian.

After receiving the ball, Tang Tian turned to break through and saw Anthony assist again, turning around and throwing back.

The ball hit the front of the rim and rolled in a few times.

This ball is a balloon.

Anthony took the ball in the frontcourt and signaled to pull it back to Howard.

Woodson is not a coach who is good at attacking, but he does a good job of catching opponents' weaknesses.

Howard continued to beat Jokic, then turned and hit the board.

However, Davis showed his talent, he quickly assisted the defense to the basket, directly gave Howard a spiked cap, and took home the defensive rebound.

Cheers broke out at the scene.

Davis' talent is really strong.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, Tang Tian continued to hold the ball, and stepped back to face the assisted Anthony dry jumper.

"Dang!"

Basketball smashed out of the box, Howard jumped up and received the rebound.

After two rounds, Tang Tian already knew that he didn't feel good. The effect of such a strong attack was average.

The Knicks hit the frontcourt, this time switching to Calderon to hold the ball, Anthony ran out of tactics, and the jumper took the pass.

"Oh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

4 to 2, after the Knicks run through, the strength is indeed stronger than when the two sides played for the first time.

Hollodi held the ball to the front and gave it to Tang Tian. Tang Tian directly gave the ball to Jokic and signaled the latter to organize the attack.

When you don't feel good, it's a good idea to use another attack method.

Alizara to the bottom corner, Tang Tian and Davis cut into the basket from both sides.

The Knicks contracted defense.

Tang Tian ran back to the high post.

Just then the Knicks' weaknesses were exposed.

Their lineups are generally defensive, even aside from Woodson's system, Anthony's defensive is average, Calderon and Bagnani are defensive black holes.

It is obviously slower to go back this time.

Jokic was fast and gave the ball to Tang Tian as soon as possible.

Tang Tian had a great chance to catch the ball and made a jumper.

"Oh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Regardless of the defensive strength, it is a hooligan. Tang Tian ’s poor feel is under high-intensity defense. He still has a solid ball.

He managed the first 4 points of the team's opening.

After scoring, he stretched his fingers to Jokic.

The Pelicans' starting lineup is almost perfect, but lacks a second point to help Tang Tian share the pressure.

Holloday and Davis almost mean it, Jokic just got the ball just right.

When the two last played with the Rockets, Tang Tian made a comfortable three-pointer.

Counting this time, the chemical reaction between the two people really happened.

The Knicks ran the tactics in the frontcourt again. This time Ariza followed closely and did not give Anthony a phone conference easily.

Anthony signalled to pull away and the tactics became singles.

After a series of tentative steps after turning around, Aliza clung to the defense.

However, Anthony suddenly turned around with a washing machine, turned over and made a jump shot.

"Oh!"

After the basketball shots, go in.

After Anthony lost weight this season, a knee injury has lessened his impact, and he has become the omnipotent offensive kaleidoscope before.

6-4, the Knicks are brave tonight, this is really coming in revenge.

Holliday took the ball to the front court and gave it to Jokic.

Tang Tian accelerated to get rid of Hardaway and cut to the basket.

Jokic hit the earth beautifully.

Tang Tian catches the ball and kills the basket.

The Knicks quickly shrank defense.

Howard also quickly retreated to the basket.

Tang Tian's confrontation is excellent, but he must also be against whom, there must be no advantage against Howard.

He looked back at the moon and threw the ball directly towards the top of the arc.

Jokic fell outside the arc top three-point line as soon as he passed the ball.

Because Jokic played a substitute before, this position is not a tactical arrangement, it is Jokic's own consciousness and judgment.

The ball was delivered to Jokic accurately, Howard could not make it out, Jokic raised his three-pointer and shot.

The ball's trajectory is high, but the parabola looks straight.

"Oh!"

He hit his first shot!

7-6, the Pelicans overtake the score again!

Cheers broke out at the scene.

Jokic sent Tang Tian a second pass in front of him. In the next round, Tang Tian immediately returned a report.

Anthony missed a jumper and missed a jumper. Howard offensive rebounds caused Jokic defensive foul.

Lost two free throws, Jokic protected the defensive rebound.

In the frontcourt, Davis and Tang Tian's running position held back the Knicks' main defensive efforts.

Jokic turned to the hoop, put a fake shot to fly Howard, turned around and put the ball into the basket easily.

Although the defensive end is below in the confrontation with Howard ~ www.novelhall.com ~, he is very confident and effective on the offensive end.

With more than 9 minutes in the first quarter, the Pelicans led the Knicks 30-21.

Jokic and Tang Tian were replaced for the rest.

Tang Tian had 10 points and 3 assists, and Jokic had 5 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

Of the three assists for the two, two were passed to the opponent.

The chemical reaction between the two was not only from the beginning, but also the kind of catalyst added, which came fast and fiercely!

ps: I'm not a very powerful person, just an ordinary person. Like you, sometimes my mentality will fluctuate and fluctuate, but I will try my best to ensure the quality. I haven't noticed it myself. It is 1.3 million words. The word count of the previous book is almost ending. I have written a book of 2 million words at most in the past few years. However, this book has just reached the middle stage. The word count should be affirmative. I am calm and continue to move forward toward the goal of 3 million words. Thank you to everyone who is still supporting, what is it per person, I love you.
