Chapter 250 [Is there still Wang Fa?Are there any laws? 】

布拉德-米勒打满整节，拿下7分5篮板4助攻，3投3中。

Ratliff, as the 76ers' strongest defensive inside player, was the most uncomfortable against Miller, unable to play his bouncing, speed, and wingspan advantages.

Miller will not storm the basket. He walks slowly and leisurely, and can always pass the ball to the right position, forming dislocation or dominant singles opportunities.But the big man really has to go far, he can shoot jumpers.

Brin commented: "Miller can make opponents crazy when he feels good. As an undrafted rookie, he is really an inspirational player."

Frazier said: "On the surface, the Raptors don't have a player with a lot of assists, but in fact they are the best in the league in running the ball and have average assists. Outside Billups averaged 4.3 assists per game, Carter 4.6, McGrady 4.5. Veteran Hornacek and Detrev are also good at passing, which is the smoothest offense in the league.”

In the second quarter, the Raptors Hornacek and Christie played, the small forward was McGrady who rested for 4 minutes, and the inside were veterans Detrev and Willis.

The 76ers sent three guards, Kevin Olly, Aaron McGee, Larry Hughes, and Kukoc and Matt Geiger inside.

Yang Rui felt relieved after seeing the 76ers' roster, drinking milk tea and eating potato chips on the sidelines.

The timing of Larry Brown's substitutions is no different from the last round of the series, and there are traces to follow.The three guards can enhance the impact and play fast breaks after Iverson goes off the court to ensure offensive firepower.But there is a big problem. No one in the 76ers can guard McGrady. Hughes and McGee are short and Kukoc is slow.

The Raptors didn't let up on the defensive end either.In the playoffs, Yang Rui asked the defensive end to strengthen the confrontation, guard the penalty area, and be quick and ruthless when the foul was passed.

The Raptors did just that, blocking the paint.

Detrev and Kukoc have similar styles and know what they hate. Willis guards the penalty area. He is experienced and lighter, and he still withstood Geiger.He played few minutes in the regular season and entered the playoffs at his best.

Seeing that the defender couldn't break through and the shot was not accurate, Brown only allowed Iverson to rest for 3 minutes before changing to the field.The effect was obvious, and Iverson scored 6 points in a row.

Iverson didn't make a breakthrough and made a pull-up jumper. Christie and Hornacek struggled to defend.His speed is too fast, and once he changes direction, it is difficult to keep up. The jump shot often relies on rhythm before the highest point, and can only interfere slightly.

Yang Rui did not arrange for Iverson to be double-teamed. If he attracts a double-teamed team, whether it is scoring the ball or shooting and hitting the basket, teammates can rush for rebounds. The 76ers role players can play, and then there is a chance to win.

Therefore, Yang Rui's adjustment was substitution. Boykins came on and replaced veteran Hornacek.

Everyone was shocked. Whether the audience in front of the TV or the fans on the scene, this substitution was beyond their expectations.

CCTV5 Zhang Li said with surprise: "Yang Rui's adjustment makes people incomprehensible? Iverson is in good shape. He actually played Boykins at this time. He is only 165cm tall, which is shorter than Iverson. Are you not defending?"

Sun Zhengping said with a smile: "I think Yang Rui is going to fight the offense. Boykins' breakthrough ability is the strongest in the Raptors. Iverson doesn't know if he can seize the opportunity and score more points in this quarter."

Zhang Lili sighed: "Iverson and Yang Rui greeted before the game, and the relationship between the two seems to be good. During the star weekend, Yang Rui also participated in community labor with Iverson. He also made Iverson the core of the game. , won the MVP. But is it really good to give the opponent face in the playoffs?”

There are too many fake games. Chinese people watch sports games, no matter what country or event, they like to think about conspiracy theories, and the commentators are no exception, but they are wrong.

Yang Rui did not "release water" at all, but strengthened his defense.On the Raptors, no one is better suited to guard Iverson than Boykins.The reason Iverson became a star, his most important advantage is speed, is agility, not shooting.

After Boykins is the main defense, Iverson's catch and breakthrough are more difficult than before.Boykins is shorter, more agile, and slightly slower on a straight line than Iverson, but as long as Iverson doesn't succeed in his first move, he can interfere closely.

Others defend Iverson, and the close-fitting action is slightly larger. If Iverson stumbles, he may be called a foul. Boykins does not have this concern, which is also an advantage.

The 76ers screen and cooperate, and the Raptors are also very active in switching to Iverson inside. Unless he catches the ball and shoots immediately, he can get a good opportunity, but that is not the playing rhythm that Iverson is good at.

After two passes, the teammates failed to make a shot, and Iverson began to single out.

Iverson stopped looking for cover, and his teammates didn't give him cover, as if with a small role like Boykins, cover would bring shame to the superstar.

Yang Rui aimed at Iverson's character. He is the kind of person who likes to compete with opponents. Whoever throws in in front of him, he wants to return one.If the opponent's last unknown guy is the main defense, he will use his strength to teach the opponent to be a man.

Iverson broke through with the ball, but he didn't pass the first step. He leaned on Boykins with his back and turned to the middle and made a step-back jumper.

Boykins is very focused, defending without losing position, jumping to interfere as much as possible.Iverson dodged the block, but the ball missed the rim and Willis grabbed the rebound.

Raptors attack, Yang Rui may not arrange Boykins to singled out Iverson with the ball.The players pulled away and Willis gave Boykins a side screen.

McGrady scored the ball, Boykins broke through with the ball, attracted Geiger to switch defense and Iverson chased, found an empty space, and passed it to the veteran Willis of the empty cut.

Geiger hurriedly retreated to the basket, Willis had already started, stepped and turned around, leaning on Geiger to hit a hook from close range.

The 76ers attacked, and Iverson faced Boykins to interfere with another pull-up jumper, and shot the iron in front of others.

The Raptors attack was very simple. McGrady faced Hughes with a jumper and the 76ers counterattacked. Iverson forced a layup inside, but failed to get rid of Boykins completely. He was also double-teamed by Willis. Deviated from interference.

Iverson rushed out of the baseline, Willis got the rebound, and the Raptors immediately fought back.

Boykins quickly advanced to the frontcourt and passed Kukoc for a layup.

Conversely, the 76ers are not good at guarding Boykins, and it's too hard for a big man to keep up with him.

The 76ers attacked, Iverson singled out with the ball, leaned back against Boykins on the right horn, turned to the middle and took a jumper, and finally made a mid-range shot.

The Raptors attacked, still using the talent of the star, McGrady missed a jumper, and the 76ers battled.

The 76ers handed Iverson a single for the fifth time in a row. He changed the direction of the dribble under his crotch and made a pull-up jumper on the right. Under the interference of Boykins, he missed the basket and Willis scored the rebound.

After the Raptors made a substitution, Iverson made one of five shots and gave a disappointing answer.

Not only the fans, but even assistant coaches such as D'Antoni and Thibodeau found it incredible. When Yang Rui arranged it like this, they raised their objections together, and now they have accepted it.

The borderline defense is super huge, so what is it? !
Many Iverson fans have been severely hit and feel that the world view has changed. They can't figure out how the all-powerful Iverson can be guarded by a skinny Boykins.

Is there any king law?Are there any laws? !
