Fortunately, Lian Dao discovered the problem with Chandler's shot in time, rushed inside and grabbed an offensive rebound.
Lian Dao did not choose to attack directly, but took the ball to the outside to reorganize, calling Millsap's outside pick-and-roll.
Millsap blocked Carlos Delfino, and Lian Dao accelerated to the inside. Bogut stepped forward to defend Lian Dao, but he passed Bogut's defense in a disguised form. Ersan-Inlyasova It is also time to double-team Lian Dao.
Lian Dao smashed the ball to Ersan Yinlyasova's crotch and bounced back into David Lee's hands.
Lian Dao's pass made David Lee feel more comfortable than in the regular season. He didn't need to make adjustments at all. He made a mid-range shot and hit a two-pointer.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with David Lee feeling this way. This is because of the Pass Master Medal. The Pass Master can increase the hit rate of the receiver by 5%.
This 5% hit rate bonus almost made David Lee's mid-range shots reach 60%, which is very scary.
5:5.
The Bucks attack.
This time, Jennings is still going to find Bogut. Bogut keeps getting stuck with Millsap at the basket. Both sides push each other and make small moves. A pass, but then David Lee stepped forward to double-team.
Seeing that a double-team could be formed immediately, Bogut passed the ball to Ersan-Inlyasova at this time. Ersan-Inlyasova shot from the outside after making a slight adjustment on the outside, but just as soon as he made the shot, He saw a big yellow hand hovering in front of his eyes.
"Snapped!"
Lian Dao completed the defense at the last moment of his shot, and Holiday controlled the basketball shot by Lian Dao.
The Knicks team fast break!
But the Bucks also had two players who reacted quickly, Jennings and John Salmons, one on the left and one on the right, attacking the fast-breaking Holiday from both sides.
Jennings and John Salmons waited for Holiday to layup and gave him a double ghost shot.
But Jennings soon realized that something was wrong. Holiday didn't have a basketball in his hands when he jumped up.
Looking back, he just saw Lian Dao from the outside line. He made a fake shot, received the dribble and moved laterally to avoid the block behind Carlos Delfino, and made an open three-pointer.
The basketball slides across a rainbow arc.
"brush!"
5:8!
The perfect defensive counterattack, the cooperation between Holiday and Lian Dao once again ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.
"Defense!
"Defense!
"Defense!
The audience shouted loudly.
Under the pressure of the Knicks fans, Jennings made a pass error. When he lobbed the ball inside, David Lee saw through and completed the steal.
After Lian Dao received a pass from David Lee, he turned around and passed Carlos Delfino, and then threw the ball to the basket. Chandler caught the ball in the air and dunked.
5:10!
The Knicks completed two quick defensive counterattacks, which made Bucks coach Scott Skiles look bad and yelled to slow down from the sidelines.
Just now the Bucks were in a hurry to attack, and Jennings wanted to pass the ball to the inside before Bogut took a good position.
The last thing the Knicks are worried about is that their opponents will play fast breaks with them. The Knicks' defensive counterattack efficiency is the best in the league.
Under the roar of head coach Scott Skiles, the Bucks also returned to their own rhythm. Bogut stuck Millsap this time and asked Jennings for the ball.
As soon as Jennings passed the ball, David Lee and Millsap completed a double-team.
Under the double-teaming of David Lee and Millsap, Bogut didn't have much room to play for a while.
And just as Bogut looked around looking for his teammates to catch the ball, Millsap slapped the basketball that Bogut was holding.
Then quickly pounced on the basketball, before Bogut came up to scramble.
Millsap took the racket to Lian Dao.
Lian Dao, who received a pass from Millsap, quickly launched a counterattack.
One-stop reached the basket of the Bucks, and scored 2+1 against Jennings for a layup.
Lian Dao made the free throw steadily.
5:13.
After the goal was scored, Scott Skiles couldn't sit still and called a timeout.
"Kenny, you see, the Knicks' running and bombing is still effective in the playoffs, and sickle is still a point that the Bucks can't defend against."
"However, I didn't see what you said, the advantage of the Bucks inside."
Barkley said to his partner Kenny Smith.
"I didn't expect that the Bucks would be the first to have problems, but I believe this is just the beginning, and they will adjust back."
Kenny Smith is still firm in his point of view.
"OK, let's wait and see!"
The timeout ends and the Bucks attack.
They are no longer obsessed with hitting the basket. Bogutla went to the outside to pick and roll John Salmons, and John Salmons hit a mid-range jumper.
For the Knicks, as soon as Holiday arrived in the frontcourt, he handed the ball to Lian Dao.
Lian Dao held the ball without the slightest hesitation, because once he hesitated, the Bucks would complete the double-team immediately.
Carlos Delfino was frightened by Lian Dao's three-pointer, so his defense was basically close to Lian Dao.
He didn't worry about Lian Dao's going to the inside, because Bogut would make up defenses under the basket.
Moreover, Carlos Delfino also knew that Lian Dao's mid-range shooting was unstable after fighting 4 times in the regular season.
This time, however, Carlos Delfino was wrong.
The fastest first step, start!
Passing Carlos Delfino, Bogut under the basket was ready to make up defense, and was waiting for Lian Dao to give a fatal shot when he made a layup under the basket.
However, after Lian Dao broke through Carlos Delfino, he shot a mid-range jumper directly.
"Rebound!
John Salmons, who was helping to defend, did not believe that Lian Dao could score this goal.
Bogut is also at the basket ready to grab a defensive rebound.
"brush!"
An arrow through the heart!
7:15.
"What a **** luck!" John Salmons muttered inwardly as he served the ball.
In fact, not only John Salmons, but all the players of the Bucks, including the head coach of the Bucks, did not take Lian Dao's mid-range jumper to heart this time.
They all thought that Lian Dao's goal was due to luck.
But immediately after, Lian Dao broke through the defense and fired again at mid-range.
The second mid-range hit, the Bucks still don't think that Lian Dao has developed a mid-range shot.
The third!
the fourth!
After Lian Dao's fifth mid-range shot, under the defense of John Salmons, he hit a fadeaway jumper.
Scott Skiles called timeout again.
This time there was 1 minute and 24 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.
But the Bucks are already 16 points behind.
20:36.
The Bucks don't know how to defend Lian Dao during this period of time. Carlos Delfino can't prevent Lian Dao's breakthrough from beyond the three-point line.
After Lian Dao broke through, the Bucks shrunk their defense, and then Lian Dao chose a mid-range fadeaway jumper~www.mtlnovel.com~ Bogut had no choice but to come out from the inside to defend, and then Lian Dao passed the ball to the basket Millsap.
It can be said that during this period of time, under the leadership of Lian Dao, the Knicks broke down the Bucks' defensive system.
After the timeout, Lian Dao walked off the court, and D'Antoni was all smiles.
"Nice sickle, but when did you develop a mid-range shot?" D'Antoni patted Lian Dao's shoulder and said.
"Uh, actually I've been practicing mid-range shots all the time, maybe the change in quantity has caused a change in quality!" Lian Dao wittily found a reason for himself.
He couldn't say that he got it through a lottery by the system, could he?
If he dared to say that, everyone would dare to look at him as if he was mentally retarded, and there was another possibility that he would be studied in slices.
Lian Dao's reason also dispelled everyone's curiosity. They knew that Lian Dao had been practicing mid-range shooting for a long time.
"Training hard will pay off!"
That's on the minds of all Knicks players.
Compared with the joy of the Knicks, the morale of the Bucks has dropped to freezing point.
Everyone in the Bucks kept their heads down. They tried everything they could, but they couldn't prevent Lian Dao, which hurt morale.
Head coach Scott Skiles looked at all the players, looking downcast, angry and anxious.
He doesn't have a particularly good solution now, how could he have imagined that Lian Dao's middle distance would be so accurate.
Although three-pointers are greater than two-pointers, mid-range shots are more stable than three-pointers, because so far, there has not been a team that won the championship through three-pointers in the playoffs, but a team with particularly accurate mid-range shots , but there are many that kill the game.
