I'm not really a role player

Chapter 123

"Coach, let me switch to Allen Iverson!"

After a pause, Li Ke volunteered.

His EQ is not high, at least he has it. He knows that directly asking Boss Hua to defend Melon will hurt Sam Vincent and Matt Carroll at the same time.

Therefore, he was actually very tactful, acting as if he was eager to go against Lao Ai.

Sam Vincent shook his head: "What about Carmelo Anthony?"

"Melo? Hey, Coach, I didn't say that. He's been defended 4-for-1 by me. Let Gerrard play. Gerrard can easily guard him to death!"

Boss Hua was unhappy: "Sheldon, what do you mean? My defense is not as good as yours?"

"Then go and prove it!"

"Damn, coach, I want to defend Melo!"

"Okay, let's be more straightforward. Matt will come down first, and Walter will go up and fight for a while."

Sam Vincent was very helpless, and immediately made a decision to let Gerald Wallace return to the third position.

Li Ke looked at the seemingly fierce Argentine Walter Herman, and he really wanted to say: Kenyon Martin is not easy to mess with...

But thinking about the status quo of the Nuggets, how much can Kenyon Martin get the ball?

The official timeout ended soon, and the game restarted. The Bobcats had already replaced Walter Herman, and the Nuggets also replaced JR Smith after this wave of timeouts, replacing the false master Anthony Carter.

Speaking of which, the Nuggets have a strong bench. JR is just one of the gangsters on the bench. In addition to him, there are Linas Creza, Nene, who has not yet detected a testicular tumor, and Mexican Edon Donajura.

It must be admitted that the management of the Nuggets has always been an excellent presence in this league. Even though they have changed the main person in charge many times, their draft and Taobao vision, as well as the strength of the team, have always been above the standard.

After the game restarted, Melon found that the Chinese film star had run away, and his defense was replaced by the fearless Gerald Wallace. Moreover, the new opponent in front of him had an unusually strong fighting spirit.

Melon soon suffered. After the timeout, he asked for the ball to play singles, hoping to hit Li Ke back.

As a result, the moment he turned his back, the ball was cut directly.

Clap!
Several high-pitched voices sounded in the Pepsi Center: "Fight back!"

Li Ke rushed out like an arrow, and the one who followed him was naturally Lao Ai who had had friendly exchanges with him just now.

After the timeout, when Lao Ai saw Li Ke, he first said: "Rookie, you are finally here!"

Li Ke also replied as a matter of course: "I'm here to prevent you from dying. Judging by your appearance, I should have been waiting for a long time, right?"

Lao Ai ignored Li Ke, for no other reason, Gerald Wallace successfully cut the ball, Li Ke rushed out, and Lao Ai could only keep up.

Li Ke was stared at by Lao Ai, and had no chance in the counterattack. Instead, Fei Dun sprinted all the way, caught the basketball, and sent the ball into the basket with an extremely easy layup.

17 to 14, the Bobcats' lead expanded to 3 points, Melon's face was ugly.

On the other side, Lao Ai just watched Fei Dun celebrate the goal, turned around and said to Li Ke: "The next round is up to me, you should go take a shower, rookie!"

"???"

Time to take a shower?What kind of trash talk is this, taking him for Uzi?
Li Ke was full of question marks, turned around and stared at Lao Ai who had changed to point guard from afar.

Lao Ai controlled the ball to the front court, and Li Ke leaned over immediately, but overall, he still kept his distance.

Iverson has never been the kind of scorer who is good at long shots. His breakthrough is more powerful, followed by mid-range shots, and finally three-pointers.

Only when the touch comes, Lao Ai will always face the defense for three-pointers, and in this game, Lao Ai's touch is obviously very average.

A change of hands under the crotch, Lao Ai suddenly started...

"Breakthrough on the right, Li Ke's prediction succeeded!"

Is it a prediction, not a prediction.

Li Ke has studied Iverson, and he knows that Iverson prefers to go on the right side rather than the left side.

So, when Iverson made a big change of direction in front of him, which seemed to be a fake move, Li Ke took it seriously and turned around in one step.

Seeing Lao Ai slumped under his own defense, Li Ke was a little excited.

Unexpectedly, Lao Ai made another crotch, forcibly turned around, and accelerated past Li Ke...

"Fuck!"

Iverson passed by, Li Ke turned around and wanted to catch it, but he was a little too late.

Three steps and two steps, Lao Ai took a European step, faced Okafor's supplementary defense, and scored a layup.

Li Ke was shocked, is this Iverson's crossover?What a killer move!

It's a pity that the knees are too useless. The 32-year-old Iverson rarely uses these fancy moves.

Lao Ai celebrated after scoring a goal, and he could still see a bit of reluctance.

He couldn't help it, he had already pretended to be coercive in front of Li Ke before, and he had to make this coercion come true. In desperation, he could only go all out.

"This ball is a pity. Li Ke judged the right position at the beginning, but Iverson forcibly changed back. I can only say that the answer is the answer. Even if he is 32 years old, he is the answer!"

After rubbing his knees, Lao Ai reappeared in front of Li Ke.

When the Bobcats attacked, Li Ke made a gesture to go out from the baseline, but suddenly turned back, slipped the baseline and ran around, borrowed Okafor's cover by the way, and rushed directly to the left of the free throw line.

Here, Li Ke was just in position, and then Fettun's pass came, and he passed an early pass.

Li Ke caught the ball very comfortably, and when he got the ball, he stopped and shot.

Lao Ai rushed over immediately, brought up a gust of wind, stretched out his arms that were neither too long nor too short, and forced himself in front of Li Ke.

Li Ke has already jumped into the air, raised his hand and shot!
Swish!
"The ball is scored, and the mid-range shot is hit on the catch. Li Ke immediately returned one, Ang Sebao!"

Melo has been waiting for a long time for the Nuggets' offense, and he has to find his way back.

In the first half of the first quarter, with his strength, Li Ke's back-up singles had no effect at all.

Now with a different opponent, Melon tried again, and immediately made progress.

"Back to the back, Gerald Wallace's strength is far behind Li Ke's. He can't stand Anthony's push..."

"A turnaround jumper!"

Swish!
The ball is in!
The moment the ball was scored, Melon glanced at Li Ke, and Boss Hua spread his hands, wanting to say that he had already defended the ball well.

Turning around, the Bobcats attacked, and Boss Hua got the ball from outside the three-point line and asked for a pick-and-roll.

Walter Herman made a false block, but Boss Hua galloped towards the other side, accelerated in three or two steps and took a lead, and directly made a layup.

Boss Hua also packed an unser bag!

Then came the Nuggets' offense again, and it was Lao Ai's turn.

He broke through again, but Li Ke was firmly stuck in front of him, and the last emergency stop hit the shot with a bang.

In the Lynx's attack, Li Ke went out from the bottom line again, caught the ball and shot it, and with a bang, he also hit the iron.

In this way, after the substitution, the score did not widen, but there were no players in exceptionally good condition on the court.

Iverson, who scored consecutively in the first half of the first quarter, was almost pinched by Li Ke. On the Bobcats side, they played scattered points, but Li Ke had a little more possession of the ball.

Li Ke was in pretty good shape. After the first quarter, he shot 8 of 4 shots and scored 11 points, exactly [-]% of his shots.

On the other hand, Lao Ai, who scored consecutively in the opening game, scored 9 of 5 shots and scored 13 points, which can be regarded as supporting half the sky of the Nuggets.

Except for the two of them, Boss Hua had the highest score on the Bobcats side with 6 points, and on the Nuggets side, Anthony also scored 9 points in a single quarter.

The score of the two teams in the first quarter was 29 to 27, and the Bobcats were still leading, but they only led by 2 points.

The Bobcats' two head scorers scored about 5 points less than the Nuggets' two head scorers, but they were the leading side.

Obviously, this has to mention the somewhat deformed tactical system of the Nuggets.

Basically, the Nuggets' current style of play is-star singles.

Generally speaking, Anthony will play first, then Iverson will play, Iverson will replace Anthony, and there will be at most one or two rounds of Kenyon Martin's singles, Camby and the rebounding tool man. Anthony Carter is the tool man who controls the ball to the frontcourt.

When JR Smith came on the stage, Iverson and Anthony finished each, and JR still had to hit a few three-pointers...

Just type one word: Chaos!

Although chaotic, the Nuggets' record is still within an acceptable range, so George Karl's tactics have not changed.

Or, he can't change at all. When a team needs Anthony and Iverson as partners, the team will be full of all kinds of singles.

Perhaps, George Karl can order the players: Go hit the damn pick-and-roll!

Melo and the answer can also refuse George Karl: Give me the ball and I can solve everything.

It seems that George Karl is a bit happy and troubled, but George Karl knows very well that such a nugget will not go far at all.

However, speaking of this regular season alone, George Karl still believes that the Nuggets have a chance.

What is the way for the Nuggets to win?
It's just Biao points, they have no defense, and there is no way to defend.

When your backcourt combination is Iverson who is not even 1 meters and Anthony Carter who is 8 meters, you can't defend at all!

When your outside line is a group of offensive madmen, no one wants to defend!
This is also where George Karl has a headache. He is not a coach who doesn't like defense, but it's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice.

Therefore, the only way for the Nuggets to win is to score points.

Give the defense completely to Marcus Camby, and then score points at all costs, as long as they ensure that they score higher than the opponent, they can win.

It may seem like nonsense, but it is actually a wise saying.

In the second quarter, the Nuggets went directly to a pure offensive lineup, point guard Iverson, shooting guard JR Smith, small forward Linas Kleiza, power forward Anthony, and center Kenyon Martin.

Then, bombarded wildly until the end of halftime.

In the end, at halftime, the Nuggets overtook the score.

"60 to 56, the Denver Nuggets entered the second half with a leading attitude!"
