NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 282 Crazy Pick and Roll
Players from both sides are warming up, fans are cheering, cheerleaders are ready to dance at any time, and Monty and Vogel are pacing from time to time.

The sun mascot gorilla, holding a "Beat La" sign, wandered around the stadium unscrupulously, leading the fans to shout out.

He even walked arrogantly to the Lakers half court to provoke.

A mascot, can you still beat him?
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the gorilla walked up to Meng Hua, who was shooting from a long distance, bouncing around to get his attention, then turned his back and twisted his buttocks towards him.

Since the Eagles mascot "Harry the Eagle" provoked Barkley and was beaten so much that his parents didn't recognize him, the league has banned mascots from provoking players.

The gorilla, relying on its home game, came here to teach Meng Hua a lesson.

The Suns fans also cooperated very much, applauding him one after another, and he was even more embarrassing.

Meng Hua didn't bother to talk to him, but the referee couldn't stand it anymore, and came over to verbally warn him not to go too far.

The home crowd quickly booed and put pressure on the referee.

Referees are human too, and they will have psychological fluctuations.

Old foxes like Popovich are very good at yelling at the referee, hoping to create pressure on the referee and make more judgments that are beneficial to the team.

The referee prepares for the kick-off in the middle circle.

Ayton and Nongmei went all out.

Although it doesn't seem to mean much who wins and who loses, but winning the first ball is a good psychological hint for the players.

And the fourth quarter is when the game is the most intense, and the one who kicks off first will often be more psychologically stable.

Ayton poked lightly with his ape arm, and got the ball before thick eyebrows. Bridges received the ball and passed it to Paul immediately.

The arena was full of gongs and drums, and the fans cheered for the home team.

The on-site DJ called out the offensive accompaniment, amidst the waves of sound, hoping that the home team can tear the visiting team apart.

Paul controls the ball with a cat waist, his eyes are piercing, looking for opportunities.

Ayton came up to screen from the baseline. His screen ability was so strong that the Lakers had to switch defenses.

After switching defenses, Paul molested his thick eyebrows a few times and stuffed the ball to Ayton who went down to the elbow.

The thick eyebrows were so angry that they used both legs and feet, jumping up and down, but still failed to block Paul's pass.

Ayton received the ball and faced Westbrook, who was a lot shorter than himself, he turned to face the frame, used a throw, and hit it softly.

He was already a head taller than Westbrook, and he used a small throw, and Westbrook gasified directly.

After Ayton scored, there was a small climax on the scene, and the shouts of killing went straight to the sky.

Westbrook sent the baseline ball. When James received the ball, he talked to him, as if he was not very satisfied with Westbrook's defense.

Westbrook nodded frequently, as if he had absorbed it, but he didn't seem to have absorbed it.

In a similar way, James paid tribute to Paul and also picked and rolled with thick eyebrows.

Thick Eyebrow's cover quality is no worse than that of Ayton, and he has enough strength in the beginning.

The Suns also switched defenses, their thick eyebrows were removed to the basket, their buttocks stuck Bridges, and they stretched out their big hands for the ball.

James didn't molested Ayton, and gave a hit to the ground immediately.

The thick eyebrow caught the ball with one hand, turned half-turned and hit the board with a hook, easily scoring two points.

James stepped back slowly, glanced at Paul beside him, and said with a smile, "I will too."

The two had a good relationship, and Paul shot back: "You wait."

Paul dribbled the ball across half court, this time he chose to pick and roll with Booker.

Both of them have strong mid-range shooting abilities, and the Lakers also switched defenses immediately. Naturally, Westbrook was the one defending Booker.

Booker made a direct pull and hit a two-pointer.

Westbrook shook his head again and again, your sister, how many times will I be the background board for such a pick and roll.

Paul ignored Westbrook, spread his hands at James, and signaled with his eyes: Come again.

Come on, James dribbled the ball halfway, and immediately signaled Rivers to play a pick-and-roll.

Although Rivers' body is not very strong, the timing of the block is very accurate, and the dismantling is more accurate.

James' pass was as precise as a scalpel, and a through pass penetrated the Suns' defense.

Rivers made a three-pointer, and the ball passed Bridges, who was chasing him, and flew into the net.

In Bridges' mind, the same thoughts as Westbrook immediately came to mind: I am also a candidate for dpoy anyway, are you so polite?

James proudly raised his head at Paul: How is it?This is three points for me.

"Oh, you really have a trick." Paul thought to himself.

While dribbling the ball across the half court, his mind was at full speed, thinking about how to prevent James from imitating.

Got it!

Don't you play against Bridges at the 3rd position, I will play a pick-and-roll with him, and I will see how you pick-and-roll with yourself in a while.

Thinking of such an interesting thing, Paul smiled and called Bridges to come up for the pick-and-roll.

Bridges' pick-and-roll is a new type of pick-and-roll, and the pick-and-roll is the same as Rivers just now, which is the tactical cooperation that James often plays with Meng Hua.

As one of the top 3D players in the league, Bridges is quite skilled in every pick and roll, and soon scored a three-pointer on Westbrook's head.

Westbrook's face was getting greener and greener, and he glanced at Vogel, hoping that he would say not to switch defenses, so that he would not be so injured.

Looking at the sullen Booker, he suddenly became less sad.

The same is true for Booker, he is still the head of the Suns, so what is my injury?
Paul retreated, and said to James, "See, the pick-and-roll with the third position, you also have one."

James holds the ball at the top of the arc, which can't help him.

You are number [-], you play pick and roll with number [-], I am number [-], and the corresponding thing is to play against number [-].

After figuring this out, he called Westbrook, who was as sad as a bitter melon.

Seeing the call from the organization, Westbrook blocked Bridges with a butcher's knife.

James throws a layup.

Westbrook received the ball, the top turned around and hit the board, and Bridges was hit quickly.

James eyed Paul: How, this response ball is okay.

In just a few minutes of the opening, both sides were pick-and-roll, lightning three-hit, and the score was 7-7.

And the players scoring goals are different, which means that all players are playing smoothly, and it will definitely be a tough battle.

Meng Hua was a little hesitant, should he activate the X-level stealing or blocking skills?
There are only two cards left, let's talk about losing the first game.

I always feel that it is a disadvantage to use up immediately after entering the first round.

The Suns continued to attack, and Claude was the only one who hadn't participated in the pick-and-roll coordination.

Paul raised his hand to signal the tactics, and Claude was overjoyed: "It's finally my turn, as long as Westbrook's body is broken, I'm going to the basket, why don't you eat him alive?"

He mentioned that he went up to cover and dropped to the basket. This time the Lakers did not switch defenses, and it was Meng Hua who defended Crowder.

Westbrook breathed a sigh of relief, and could only silently bless Meng Hua.

Brother, don't blame me, I've been beaten three times.

Meng Hua's frame is two circles smaller than Crowder's. How could Paul miss this opportunity? He aimed his eyes at 45 degrees to the right wing, seemingly observing Bridges, but the ball was accurately delivered to Crowder.

This kind of fake eye movement, he played very slippery.

Perhaps it was this look that gave him a better vision than others.

Claude received the ball, and his heart was full of joy.

It's delicious but dumplings, it's my turn to play.
