Okafor and Gasol Jr. are ready.

Okafor is 2.08 meters tall, and he is still a little shorter than Gasol.

But when the two were ready to get up.

Beep!!

The referee whistled in advance.

At this time, Paul and Lin Rui were too close to each other, and the referee mistakenly thought it was a conflict.

The referee also received some news before the game.

Paul and Lin Rui raised their hands at the same time, indicating that nothing was wrong.

"Ha ha!"

"The atmosphere suddenly got up."

"Lin Rui will beat Paul up."

"Paul wants to win our championship, but Lin Rui doesn't agree, haha!"

The fans on the scene also started to make excuses.

They like to see this happening the most.

Re-telection.

Gasol and Okafor jumped up.

Okafor was faster this time, and he transferred the ball to Paul.

Paul dribbled very calmly, and Lin Rui went up to interfere with him, but Paul was still pushing his back calmly.

Paul calmly protected the ball and passed half.

Paul gave the ball to Thorton on the right, and Thorton launched a pick-and-roll attack with West.

After the pick-and-roll, Thorton gave the ball to West, and West received the ball from the free throw line.

Tony Allengen Randolph did not switch defenses, but Randolph did not keep up with West's pace.

After West received the ball, he shot one in the middle distance.

"Swish!"

Precise hit.

2 to 0.

West's specialty is mid-range shooting, and he is known as the All-Star Bead.

The strength is Cambi All-Star, but he has been defeated many times due to his playing style.

Randolph also clapped his hands hard.

Although Randolph has lost some weight, he has not yet returned to his peak last season.

West took the lead in helping the Hornets open up the situation.

After scoring the goal, West also challenged Randolph.

Lin Rui didn't mind Randolph's slow recovery. This guy is like this. It may take three or four months to lose weight in an offseason.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui dribbled through half the game.

Paul also tried to steal Lin Rui, but he failed.

Lin Rui is much taller than Paul, but his dribble will not easily drop the ball.

Seeing Lin Rui holding the ball, the fans at the scene began to get excited.

Arc top position.

Lin Rui waved his hand and made a tactic.

Although Paul is short, his defense is very smart, almost against Lin Rui's waist, which makes it difficult for Lin Rui to directly lift up and make it difficult to break through.

Tony Allen and Tucker cut inward at the same time.

After Randolph made Tony Allen without the ball to block people, he quickly came up to help Lin Rui block people.

Paul was easily blocked, Lin Rui broke away from Paul's defense and broke through on the right side in an instant.

At this time, Tucker failed to cut in, and he ran out to the bottom corner on the left to appear.

Almost as the ball arrived, Lin Rui smashed the ball to Tucker at the bottom corner at high speed.

Tucker caught the ball and aimed a little.

"Swish!"

2 to 3.

Tucker's three-pointers in the bottom corner are becoming more and more stable, with his three-point shooting percentage this season as high as 47%.

Of course, this is also related to his actions being basically empty.

Playing around Lin Rui, the shooter is the least lacking in open spaces.

Whether it is Tucker, Curry, or Danny Green, they are now hailed as reliable shooters. In addition to their own stability, they are also closely related to Lin Rui's ability to create opportunities.

“Lin Rui’s way of playing ball is always easy.”

"Lin Rui's connection with the Sagittarius."

"Tuck's bottom corner is very stable, and these two positions are not much different from Lin Rui."

"Lin Rui has full scope and full coverage."

"Even Ariza was unable to keep up with Tucker's running position."

The fans were discussing it very actively.

Although Paul was a little dissatisfied, he knew the situation and it was difficult to hold down the Knicks' offense.

Hornets attack.

It was still Paul's command of the offensive.

Paul's command of the offense looked very pretentious, and he liked to stick the ball in his hands.

Paul's passes are very calm and he rarely passes risky balls.

“Give pressure.”

"Limit him."

“Good.”

Paul immediately wanted to change direction over Lin Rui when he arrived at the front court, but was blocked by Lin Rui.

Lin Rui also rushed Paul wildly, and Paul was a little busy.

The Knicks fans were very excited to see this situation.

In the end, Paul protected the ball and quickly gave it to West, who had successfully blocked the ball in the inside line.

West leaned against Randolph, but instead tried to attack.

If you hit the back, West would fail, but Randolph was wary of shooting.

West passed the ball to Ariza on the diagonal side.

After experiencing the Rockets' training, Ariza no longer had the intention of becoming a boss, and he played the role player with peace of mind.

The Rockets' training for him is to let his dribble and break through those slightly better.

Tucker still had his previous defensive impression of Ariza, thinking that he would only throw three points, and Tucker's defense was a little ahead.

Ariza accelerated on the right and broke through in an instant.

Gasol's assistant defense was quick and blocked Ariza's way.

Ariza gave the ball low and gave Okafor the inside.

Okafor performed his dream dance steps against Gasol Jr.

Okafor's footsteps are beautiful, but far less powerful than Olajuwon.

Gasol Jr. interfered with him.

Okafor's layup missed and the rebound was caught by Lin Rui.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt to counterattack.

The Knicks are very fast. If Lin Rui catches the rebound, their counterattack will immediately start.

Tony Allen and Tucker rushed on both sides.

But the Hornets' return to defense was not bad, and they quickly established a defense line.
