If Vin Baker can continue to play a role when facing a team that is good at playing positional warfare, but the Nuggets have sent a small lineup to play the running and bombing tactics, that would be awesome.

During the suspension, McMillan replaced Vin Baker with Don McCell. On the other hand, the Nuggets also replaced Williams with Chi Liang.

After three minutes of appearance, Williams worked hard, but due to Chi Liang and Fordson, he could not get no time.

Not long after Chi Liang played, Van Exel saw that there was no chance and took the initiative to pass the ball to Chi Liang.

Schramf calmed down his center of gravity. His height was higher than Chi Liang, with a full 208 cm. His career three-point shooting percentage reached 38.4%, his shooting feel was extremely soft, he liked to wander around the outside line, and was also the most outstanding big pitcher in the 1980s and 1990s.

Schramf is now 36 years old and is at the end of his career, but he is in good shape and still steadily occupying the starting position.

In the first few games, Schramf averaged 17 points per game, second only to Payton.

Although she was in good condition, how Schramph could keep up with Chi Liang's footsteps. With the continuous shaking, Chi Liang easily completed the breakthrough with a faster speed.

Seeing that something was wrong, McClane hurried forward to help with defense.

Before McClane came up, Chi Liang chose to stop and jump shot.

Bang~

Unfortunately, the basketball hit the basket and was finally grabbed by Polynis.

After the offense and defense conversion, the Supersonics did not have a fast break, and Polinis threw the ball to Payton, who took the ball to pass the half.

Payton is still in his prime, and he is also one of the best defenders in the league. Whether the Supersonics can achieve good results is the most critical existence.

In this offense, Payton shook Van Exel from the outside, and then broke into the penalty area to assist McClan to make a mid-range shot.

In the next few rounds, the Supersonics were still mainly based on positional battles, and their offense was very exciting. At the same time, with excellent defense, they began to limit the Nuggets' offense.

Bang~

Soon, Chi Liang received the basketball again and broke through Schramff again, but unfortunately the shot ended in a blacksmith.

“It feels bad today!”

Chi Liang shook his hands. Although he felt bad, it did not mean that he had no other means.

After the next time, Chi Liang held the ball with both hands, squatted down slightly, and made three threatening postures. Schramf did not dare to act rashly, and pulled a distance from Chi Liang, spread his hands and squatted down slightly, staring at Chi Liang tightly.

At this time, Chi Liang stretched out his right leg and his shoulders shook to the right side at the same time.

Schramf hurriedly slid, subconsciously trying to block the breakthrough route.

Unfortunately, he was deceived by Chi Liang. Chi Liang instantly retracted his right foot and broke through to the left with the ball. He passed Schramff in one step and began to attack the penalty area.

McClane stepped forward again, blocking Chi Liang.

When McLaren stepped forward, Chi Liang's eyes moved slightly, jumped up toward McLaren, making a shooting move.

McClan did not doubt it, so he jumped up and waved his hand toward the basketball racket.

In an instant, Chi Liang straightened his arm and threw the basketball out casually.

Bang!

McClane couldn't stop and hit Chi Liang's arm hard.

Beep~

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded.

Chi Liang maintained his posture and took a step back slightly after landing, and the basketball he threw at was not even touched the basket. However, he was not embarrassed, as long as he achieved his goal.

Chi Liang shook his arms, with clear palm prints on it. Standing on the free throw line, Chi Liang slapped the basketball, adjusted it slightly, and then threw the ball out.

Swish~

Swish~

After two free throws, Chi Liang turned around and returned to defense.

In the following time, Chi Liang broke through Schramff again and again, rushed into the penalty area and forced a foul, and received continuous free throw opportunities.

In addition to scoring, other data are also growing, especially in defense. In addition to defending Schramff, he occasionally uses his speed advantage to wander around, giving people the feeling of being a top blue-collar worker, rebounding, stealing or even blocking.

Schramf, who faced him, was obviously restricted. His shooting was very accurate. Even though he was in good condition, he was already 36 years old after all. In addition, he didn't have much height advantage, so it was difficult to get rid of Chi Liang's entanglement.

Only with the help of unball pick-and-roll can Schramff gain a certain amount of shooting space.

When dealing with the shooter, Chi Liang has his own set of methods, especially he has physical advantages, which gives Schramph enough pressure.

In this case, Schramf's shooting percentage was seriously affected. Under Chi Liang's defense, Schramf made 1 of 5 shots and scored 3 points.

Due to the back-to-back relationship, Nuggets' players are in poor condition and their hit rate is generally affected.

Of course, this is also related to the Supersonics' defense. After Wen Baker left the court, the Supersonics still had good defense, and even if it was not as good as the peak period, they could still limit the Nuggets' offense.

19:14

The home team was in front and the away team was in the back. After eight minutes of the first quarter, the Supersonics gained an advantage.

At this time, the Nuggets called a timeout.

After the suspension, both sides sent out substitutes to give the main players a certain amount of rest time.

Center Clark, power forward Chi Liang, small forward Williams, point guard Stich and point guard Alexander.

Unlike before, Chi Liang began to play power forward instead.

In D'Antoni's view, Chi Liang has a height and weight, and his excellent low-level singles ability, he is fully qualified for power forwards.

In addition, Chi Liang's quick steps are enough to become an excellent defender and may even become the core of defense.

"This is treating me as Garnet envoy!"

Chi Liang complained in his heart that in addition to his height and weight, his physical fitness is similar to Garnett and he has the potential to become the core of defense.

The Nuggets' ball rights, after re-serving, Alexander passed the ball with the ball and then hung it over.

Chi Liang received the ball with both hands, and his opponent was McClan. Chi Liang did not have the advantage in terms of height or weight.

When Chi Liang received the ball, his teammates began to run actively. As long as they ran out of the gap, they believed that the basketball would pass.

Chi Liang leaned on McLaren's back and raised the basketball to his chest with both hands. He immediately turned around and changed the basket to a face frame, which instantly completed parallel to McLaren.

In an instant, Chi Liang stepped forward and passed McClane in one step, and was about to shoot.

Stepania hurried forward. He was a substitute center at the Supersonics. He was not good at confrontation, but he was not slow at all.

However, at this moment, Chi Liang held the basketball with his hand, took a step to the right, stretched out his arms to pass the ball towards Clark's waist position.
Chapter completed!
