76ers coach Doc Rivers' instructions to Harden and Embiid are still very simple.
"The best defense is offense, so I want you to attack and play your pick-and-roll."
"Joel, you have a huge advantage in the paint, so be in position. As long as you are in position, Harden can pass the ball to you."
Harden and Embiid both nodded.
Embiid is currently considered the league's top center.
Let him play against the Kings, and the Kings' inside line will be very uncomfortable.
At this time, the Kings had Capela on the inside.
Capela didn't play much today, and he was holding back a lot of energy. When the coach asked him to play, he immediately stood up.
"Coach, I will definitely guard against him!"
D'Antoni nodded.
Of course, it is unrealistic to rely on Cabela to defend Embiid alone, so while Capela is defending, the Kings also have to double-team the inside.
As for Wang Yi, he took the initiative to take on the task of defending Harden.
So the Kings’ lineup at this time is:
Wang Yi, Paul, James, Danny and Capela.
When James and Paul came on the court, they looked at each other and knew what the other wanted to do.
Both of them are players with high golf IQ, and the ball will be given to whomever has the hottest touch.
This has almost become the instinct of the two of them, so after coming on the court, the two of them had already made up their mind to feed Wang Yi the ball until he died.
After coming on the court, the 76ers let Harden dribble, and Embiid provided him with a screen at the top of the key.
Harden took advantage of the screen and directly got rid of Wang Yi and went inside.
At this time, Wang Yi quickly switched defenses with Capela.
Capela is guarding Harden, and Harden also has some experience in playing small and big.
He kept crossing and changing directions, and then easily broke through Capela.
However, James had already made up the defense at this time.
Although James' current defense is called spread defense, akimbo defense, it is even said that he averages 10 spreads per game.
But when James pounced on him, it was also very bluffing.
Seeing that Harden couldn't break through, he could only pull to the outside again.
Became James to defend Harden.
Embiid once again rushed over to cover Harden.
Harden once again used his screen to get into the paint.
But this time James switched defenses with Wang Yi again.
It was switched to James to guard Embiid and Wang Yi to guard Harden.
Until this time, the 76ers coach discovered a terrible problem.
The Kings lineup is a bit weak on pick-and-rolls.
As long as the Kings switch defenses on pick-and-rolls, Wang Yi will defend the opposite center.
Normally this is a good opportunity for the opponent, as long as the ball is given to the center.
The center can easily beat Wang Yi when he is big and small.
But Wang Yi has long arms and extremely good jumping. It is difficult to find opportunities to directly pass to the center, and it is even more impossible to pass the ball to the center.
At this time, the opponent can only pull out to organize the second wave of pick-and-rolls, but during the second wave of pick-and-rolls, James will pounce on him again, and then after switching defenses, James will defend the opposite center.
Gu Ju
You must know that James plays center in a small lineup.
Although it is a little difficult for him to defend the opposite center, it is not a big problem.
Therefore, the three of them defended each other's pick-and-roll, which was simply a Tianke pick-and-roll.
The Kings' Wang Yi and James were also keenly aware of this through this pick-and-roll switch.
Their lineup is good at pick-and-rolls, so they can do something with this lineup in the future.
When the 24-second attack time was about to expire, the 76ers had no choice. Harden could only forcefully retreat from the outside.
This step back failed to make a shot, and it was the Kings' turn to attack.
This time the 76ers still didn't dare to give Wang Yi a three-point chance, so the 76ers could only stretch the defensive line very long, spreading from the backcourt to the frontcourt, but in this way their defense would appear to be riddled with holes.
Hundreds of holes.
Wang Yi As long as people stand in the backcourt, they don't dare to move too far forward.
At this time, Paul had already moved forward after getting the ball, but the 76ers still had to leave one person in the backcourt to watch Wang Yi, while another person was at the midline, ready to cover Wang Yi at any time.
It wasn't until 8 seconds later that the Kings dribbled the ball across half court that they breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Wang Yi suddenly exerted force in the backcourt and shot into the frontcourt instantly like an arrow.
As soon as Paul crossed the center line, he had been slowly dribbling the ball and waiting for Wang Yi.
At this time, everyone's attention instantly came to Wang Yi, and James immediately started to attack the inside.
Paul passed the ball directly to the inside.
After James received the ball, he took three steps directly towards the basket. Embiid on the inside quickly rushed to defend.
At the same time, Wang Yi plunged into the three-point line like an arrow.
When James saw this, he threw the ball directly towards the backboard. After the basketball bounced off the backboard, it continued to fly towards Wang Yi. It looked like he was about to receive an alley-oop.
Seeing this, Harden jumped up quickly and tried to intercept the ball in the air. However, as soon as he jumped, he became a little desperate because the ball was too high and was almost less than 30 centimeters from the top edge of the backboard.
Although Harden's bounce was good, he was still too far away from the ball. At this moment, Wang Yi fell from the sky like a rocket, intercepted the ball in the air, shouted loudly, and slammed it into the basket.
Boom——
A powerful alley-oop one-handed chop.
And it was an alley-oop dunk from the free throw line.
This dunk set the whole audience on fire!
Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely shocked.
In Xu Jingyu's live broadcast room, he watched this scene and smashed his water glass on the table, causing water to splash everywhere.
His face was red, his eyes were shining, and he shouted loudly:
"A fairy from heaven! This is a fairy from heaven! He takes off from the free throw line and takes off a one-handed alley-oop dunk. Looking at the league today, who else is there!? Jaylen Green? You are kidding! Ja Morant? Are you kidding me?
Already."
"I'm not exaggerating here. Even if they were tied together, they wouldn't be able to do such a thing."
On the barrage, while 666 and I were talking about it, everyone also expressed their opinions on Xu Jingyu's last comment.
"Jing Yu's last comment is very pertinent. The two of them really can't do such an action if they are tied together."
"Don't talk about them, even if Jordan, Carter, Howard, LaVine... tie them all together, they can't do this action!"
"I've never been convinced by Jingyu's analysis, but I do accept this sentence."
At the same time, in Tongcheng City, Chang'an Province, in a villager's house in the city.
Little chubby Pangbo is watching today’s game on his mobile phone.
When he saw this scene, he jumped up excitedly and jumped directly onto the chair.
"I'm going to fuck you! I'm going to fuck you."
Chapter completed!
