Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 958 Take the lead and gain the upper hand!

Moments later, players from both sides have arrived on the field.

Howard, Ryan Anderson, Hedo Turkoglu, JJ Redick, Josh Richardson, the Magic starters looked at Qin Hao with a sneer. They know what's going on with the 76ers, so today's game is like "kill you while you're sick."

How could such a good opportunity be missed?

Perceiving the other party's eyes, Qin Hao and the others were naturally unhappy, and there was no nonsense. When they came to the middle circle, Nene and Howard jumped the ball, but failed to jump to the ball, Qin Hao quickly turned around and returned to his own half.

The Magic attacked, Richardson advanced with the ball, and when Qin Hao reached the frontcourt, he quickly stepped forward, opened his hands, and launched a pressing defense.

"What?" Richardson was startled. He didn't expect Qin Hao to be a pressing defense at the beginning of the game.

You must know that although the pressing defense can bring great interference and defensive threats to the ball carrier, it consumes a lot of physical energy for the defender, so it is usually only used at critical moments.

It's rare to see Qin Hao's pressing defense at the very beginning of a game, even in the playoffs.

Of course, Qin Hao is the only one on the 76ers' side who is pressing defense, and the others don't, because they don't have Qin Hao's excellent physical fitness.

"ball."

Seeing Richardson frowning, guarding the ball in place and not daring to move, Turkoglu ran back and came to the outside of the three-point line to ask for the ball.

Richardson passed the ball to Turkoglu, he was relieved and a little annoyed, and it was a bit embarrassing that he was prevented from moving by Qin Hao in the first place.

In fact, Richardson is not completely immobile, but he is more prone to mistakes in the face of a pressing defense. In addition, Qin Hao is famous after all. Last season's "Rookie of the Year" is expected to be selected as an All-Star starting player, Richard Sen was still a little apprehensive about him.

In the Magic's starting lineup, Turkoglu and Anderson are both forwards, but Turkoglu more often plays the 3 because he has good organization and ball-handling ability.

I saw that Turkoglu faced Iguodala with a change of direction first, but it failed to succeed. Iguodala stared at him, and the defense was leaking.

Turkoglu frowned slightly, asked for a pick-and-roll, then pulled the man away, gave the ball to Howard, and gave it to Howard to open the situation.

Seeing Howard getting the ball, Nene quickly put it forward, and Iguodala was also ready to help defend, but Howard was called a "Warcraft" during this period, and his lethality in the low post was amazing.

I saw that Nene kept retreating and was pushed into the penalty area by Howard. Iguodala quickly went to help the defense, but it was a little too late.

Swish!

Howard hits a plate.

The 76ers fought back.

Qin Hao took the ball and quickly advanced to the front court. In front of him was Richardson. With a serious expression, he stared at Qin Hao's shoulder. Seeing Qin Hao's left shoulder swayed, his heart jumped, and his subconscious center of gravity shifted to the right.

The next moment, Qin Hao slapped the ball to the right, changed direction sharply in a large arc, and broke through from the right. The speed was so fast that Richardson couldn't react, and he was passed by Qin Hao in the blink of an eye.

There was Howard in front, Qin Hao slowed down slightly, Howard took a step forward, but did not expect Qin Hao to suddenly hug the ball and take a European step.

Swish!

The ball goes in.

Howard stood up straight, jumped up and blocked shots very well, but facing the European step, if he was asked to turn around and chase the shot, the action was a beat slower.

In the next round, the Magic's ball was given to Howard again, and this time Iguodala helped defend in time. Howard forced a shot, but failed to score.

This made the Magic head coach on the sidelines frown slightly. Today, the 76ers defended very well. Every player was very active. They didn't have a good chance on both offenses. The reason why they gave the ball to Howard Above, it's actually a helpless move.

Qin Hao came to the frontcourt, first asked for a pick-and-roll, Howard was called out, Qin Hao made a breakthrough again, rushed inside, Anderson made up defense, but was knocked away by Qin Hao.

Swish!

Enter again.

In the next few rounds, Qin Hao made breakthroughs and was extraordinarily determined, forcing the Magic to shrink the defense line and rely on containment to limit Qin Hao's breakthrough. And when they contracted the defense line, Qin Hao divided the ball and found a teammate on the outside. The Magic team prevented the breakthrough but failed to prevent the outside shot.

After only three or four minutes of play, the 76ers had a seven-point lead.

This made the Magic fans in the audience annoyed. They originally thought that today was a solid win. They were only waiting to see the Magic players bring home advantage, and the 76ers could not lift their heads.

As a result, the Magic team was overwhelmed from the start.

"Request a time off."

The Magic head coach called a timeout, his face became more solemn, and said: "It seems that we underestimate our opponents, although the 76ers have only experienced a four-game losing streak and lacked Brand, the starting small forward, But it's still not to be underestimated." After speaking, he looked at the 76ers' rest area and added, "Especially Qin."

Howard nodded in unison.

In addition to the 76ers' good defense, Qin Hao's continuous breakthroughs completely disrupted their defense.

"You have to be careful not to mess up your defense. You can't just jump at Qin as soon as you see a breakthrough." The Magic head coach said, "Dwight (Dwight Howard), don't go out too much, guard the inside. Note that it is better to let Qin get some points than to let them play more flowers."

"Understood." Howard responded in unison.

......

When the timeout came back, the Magic adjusted their defense. Howard did not mention the line, but stayed on the inside. As the last barrier, once Qin Hao broke through and hit the basket, he would have to face his block.

At the same time, the Magic team strengthened the defense of Iguodala, Iverson, Speights and others. They played very well in the previous few minutes, and the Magic team did not dare to take it lightly.

Seeing this situation, Qin Hao laughed.

"Is this asking me to face Howard? It's fine." Qin Hao asked for the ball at his teammates, then used the pick-and-roll to break through and went straight to the inside.

Howard stayed on the inside line, stared at Qin Hao, bent over and put his right hand in front of him, just waiting for Qin Hao to come over, he would serve a hot pot.

At the same time, fans in the audience were also staring at the two.

I saw Qin Hao headed straight for Howard without any intention of passing the ball. After stepping into the free throw line, he hugged the ball and bent his legs, jumping up suddenly. Howard also jumped up, the two vacated, Howard raised his right hand high, like a palm fan, obscuring Qin Hao's sight.

However, just when Howard was about to block Qin Hao, he found that Qin Hao was just holding the ball and had no intention of shooting.

"This..." Howard was stunned for a moment, feeling his body begin to fall. He was secretly anxious, and he couldn't care less, his arms went down, and he fanned towards the basketball.
