NBA Backer King - Chapter 624
Chapter 624 Dayao, does it feel good to be killed?
When the offense and defense were switched, the Blazers still returned to defense with all their strength.
“boom!”
Battle of positions, the left wing is low, slipping to the bottom, Lao Wang rushed to Duncan, but this time Randolph took the lead to block the left side of the basket.
“boom!”
Looking back, shooting guard Anderson, who hadn’t made a shot yet, took the ball and made a fake shot from the three-point line, shaking back Joe Johnson, but failed to seize the opportunity.
Stoudemire grabs the rebound and the Suns attack.
Sun attack, positional warfare.
On the left wing, Pharaoh took two steps out of the paint. When Duncan followed up, he suddenly cut back to the basket.
This time, Nash’s pass was very timely.
Watching the old K cut inside, Randolph bit the bullet and returned to the basket.
The next moment, Pharaoh caught the ball, took off with all his strength, and ran into Randolph.
“Boom!”
Under the dive, amidst the heavy impact, Randolph, who was jumping in mid-air, let out a muffled grunt, and turned back directly. At the same time, Wang Tiejun’s right hand holding the ball struggled to chop down.
“boom!”
The next moment, there was a violent smashing of the basket.
“Boom!”
The audience cheered loudly, like a volcanic eruption, and even the roar of the live commentator was suppressed.
Randolph fell so badly that his teeth cracked, and his **** hurt, as if it was about to crack. If it wasn’t for the fleshy butt, he might really crack.
He swears that he will never defend like this in the future. This is playing with his life, not his style.
Old Wang landed on the ground, glanced at Randolph, didn’t bother to talk trash, and ran to the backcourt.
The reason why he stormed the basket today was not only to improve the offensive efficiency, but also to attack the kid Randolph and weaken his motivation to help defend.
Randolph’s defense is mediocre. As long as his defensive ability is destroyed and the opponent feels fear, Duncan alone will definitely not be able to hold him.
After the first quarter, at 22:27, the Suns led by 5 points at home.
Zhang Reasonable said: “The Blazers can still maintain the situation in the first quarter, and the substitutes in the second quarter should be okay, and the main players should be able to come back in the third quarter, but they should not be able to hold on in the final quarter. At that time, the situation will tilt to the Suns.”
“Director Zhang, why is this?” Su Qun asked quickly.
Zhang Lili smiled and said: “Because of physical fitness, the Suns’ fast break is very threatening, forcing the Blazers to return to defense with all their strength every time the offense and defense switch. The outside line is better, and the inside line consumes a lot of energy. The Suns The fast break tactics of the Blazers made the Blazers’ defense very passive, which is very troublesome.
Looking at the first quarter, the Suns didn’t make a fast break because the Blazers were trying their best to return to defense. The situation was a stalemate, but this was a situation that the Blazers had to spend a lot of energy to achieve. ”
Su Qun suddenly realized: “So the Blazers will definitely be on the bench in the second quarter to give the main players a chance to breathe, and in the third quarter, after the main players consume a lot of energy again, it will be difficult to maintain the final quarter.
However, Director Zhang, although the Suns didn’t make a few fast breaks in the first quarter, several outside lines, including Stoudemire, also played frequently and quickly, which consumed a lot of energy! ”
Zhang rationally nodded and said: “But the Suns have long been suitable for this style of play and have an advantage in physical distribution. The Blazers are passive coping, and the offensive and defensive rhythm is obviously caught in the rhythm of the Suns.”
“Understood, the Suns play fast break if they want to play fast break, and play positional warfare if they want to play positional warfare, but the Blazers have to return to defense with all their strength every time. They are indeed passive and consume more energy.” Su Qun nodded and smiled.
The situation is indeed as Zhang Lili said. In the second quarter, the Blazers will mainly use the bench lineup, trying to maintain the situation and bite the score.
The Trail Blazers originally had a very strong inside lineup, but due to bad luck, they injured two important inside lineups at the beginning of the game, and both Raheem and Theo Latliff were directly reimbursed for serious injuries during the season.
As a result, the Blazers’ strongest inside lineup became weaker, and they were at a disadvantage in the second quarter’s substitute lineup.
Lao Wang will not show mercy, you are on the bench, and I am also on the bench. He played from the beginning and played the entire second quarter, forcing Duncan and Randolph to play 8 minutes each. Widened, 44:55, the Suns led by 11 points.
In the third quarter, the main players of both sides played together. Lao Wang took a lot of shots in the second quarter, but he didn’t make many shots in this quarter. The two sides tied, 64:75, and the Suns still led by 11 points.
In the last quarter, Duncan and Randolph’s physical fitness couldn’t hold on anymore, but Lao Wang strengthened his personal offense and frequently participated in fast breaks. In just half a quarter, Duncan and Randolph’s physical fitness was completely worn down, and at the same time they exploded. the Trail Blazers.
The Suns scored 30 points in the final quarter, only allowing the Blazers to score 18 points.
At the end of the game, 82:105, the Suns won by 23 points.
Lao Wang scored 44 points, 16 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals, 7 blocks, 2 turnovers and 4 fouls, shooting 64% from the field.
In addition, Marion, Stoudemire, and Nash scored in double figures.
Duncan scored 18 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, 3 turnovers and 5 fouls, shooting 42% from the field.
Randolph scored 19 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 2 turnovers and 3 fouls, shooting 42.5% from the field.
After the game, Barkley commented: “The Blazers’ strongest point, the low-post offense, failed tonight. Under the strong defense of the old K, Duncan and Randolph were not efficient enough. At the same time, they were unable to defend against the old K. K’s offense.
The low post suffers from both offensive and defensive ends, which is one of the important reasons for losing the game. ”
“Charles, is there any other reason?” Kenny Smith asked.
Nodding, Barkley continued: “In addition, the Suns didn’t have many fast breaks today, only 17 fast breaks were actually launched, and a total of 29 fast breaks were actually launched, with a success rate of 58.6%. It was 85 times, and fast breaks accounted for 34%.
This is a very high percentage for other teams, but not so high for the Suns. The percentage in the regular season is 48%, and nearly half are fast breaks.
The reason why the Suns’ fast break is lower than before is because the Blazers returned to defense with all their strength during the transition from offense to defense. His physical fitness collapsed in the final quarter, so that he lost the game. ”
Kenny Smith nodded and said: “That’s true. The Blazers fell into the rhythm of the Suns’ game and used physical energy to limit the Suns’ fast break. Although it was considered a success, it consumed too much, so this tactic , it should not be used in the next game.”
Barkley laughed: “But if you don’t follow, the Suns’ fast break can’t be limited, so the Blazers are in trouble.
Both Duncan and Randolph can’t outrun old K and Stoudemire, the perimeter Payton is also old, he can’t outrun Nash, Anderson also has injuries, but Joe Johnson’s speed is average, but he can keep up, but at the third position, the Blazers have no one Can keep up with Marion.
Five positions, four positions can’t keep up with others, how to fight?
Today, I think the Suns didn’t show their speed with all their strength, because this is only the Western Conference Finals, and there will be the finals later. Otherwise, with the overall speed of the Blazers, even if they return to the defense with all their strength, it will be difficult to defend the Suns’ fast break . ”
Kenny Smith said: “This should be deliberately controlled by the old K. Every time the Blazers returned to the defense with all their strength, that is, when Duncan and Randolph returned to the defense with all their strength, he did not make a quick release.
But if the two insiders don’t return to the defense with all their strength, he will usually launch a fast break. The main thing the Suns hope to consume is the physical energy of Duncan and Randolph. ”
Barkley nodded and said: “That’s right, the series is very long, and there are four sweeps. The Suns have made long-term plans.
More importantly, the Suns have a strong sense of fast break. When switching between offense and defense, you only need to slow down by half a beat, and their fast break will come out, so you have to return to defense with all your strength from the beginning.
But if you really go back to defense with all your strength, Old K will step on the brakes and switch to positional warfare, but your physical energy has been consumed in vain. ”
Win the G1 game, the Suns coaching staff also breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the Blazers are one of the most powerful teams in the league other than the Suns. Being able to beat their opponents by a big score in G1 shows that the skills and tactics put forward by the coaching staff are successful and targeted.
“I played well today, Steve, Sean, Amare, Joe, and a few substitutes are all good…”
Lao Wang accepted the on-site interview and praised his teammates for their performance before returning to the locker room.
As soon as he entered the locker room, he heard his cell phone ringing in the closet, and quickly took it out. It turned out to be Dayao’s call.
“Hello, Dayao?”
“Brother, congratulations, winning is so easy, it seems that you have no problem reaching the finals!”
“It’s okay. The Blazers have too many injuries inside. Duncan and Randolph alone can’t handle it. The further they go, the worse their physical fitness will be. Our fast-paced offense and defense can drag them down without any need How do I shoot, I can control the rhythm.” Lao Wang smiled proudly.
“Brother, don’t sweep again?”
“That’s not sure, luck is also very important. Maybe one of the games is not accurate, and the opponent plays very well, and it may lose one or two games. There is also a problem to be considered at home. If it is too biased, there may be Maybe lose. Anyway, the league is unwilling to see a sweep, and the strength of the Blazers is also very strong, so we can’t be careless.”
“Then if we meet in the finals, you must be merciful and don’t sweep us away.”
“That won’t work, you have to sweep what should be swept away, you boy, don’t get too close.”
“Brother, don’t you give me any face?”
“No way, if I don’t sweep you away, how can I have face? I don’t even have face, how can I give you face? Only when I sweep you can I have face, and I can give you face, understand?”
“…Brother, what you said makes sense! But the words are too convoluted, I feel dizzy, so I hang up first.”
“Ha ha…”
On the 19th, the Eastern Conference final G1 game.
Of course, CCTV will broadcast Dayao’s Eastern Conference live, but unlike Lao Wang’s Western Conference, there is no on-site commentary. The Eastern Conference only has a live broadcast room at the back, and a commentator is arranged to explain at the CCTV headquarters. There is only one interviewer on the front line, named Yang Yi .
Before the game, Dayao was full of confidence, full of confidence, full of confidence. After the first quarter, he was stunned. After the second quarter, the Nets trailed by 5 points. When he returned to the locker room, he called Lao Wang to seek Comfort, no, ask for help.
“Brother, what should I do? Troll’s weak side defense is too strong, I can’t get in? There is no attack at the basket at all, and the efficiency is too low. I only made 3 of 7 shots in the first half.”
“I reminded you earlier, and only now do I know how good the defense is? The Pistons eat defense. You can play 40% of the efficiency.”
“Then how to solve the problem? I pulled it out to vote, but Big Ben is faster than me, it’s useless to pull it out!”
“You idiot, he is so short, what threat does he pose to you if he pulls out to defend alone?”
“He pushed me secretly, there was a small move, you didn’t see it? And I didn’t feel so good today. I pulled it out and missed a few shots. The coach asked me to get closer to the basket before shooting.”
“Then there is no way, you can strengthen the ball distribution, the sprayer double-teams you, there must be an open space on the weak side. Another one, you can try to go directly to the basket to get a position. Big Ben should not be able to push you out , and there is no way to go around. Kidd’s 360-degree vision, as long as you want to get to the position under the basket, his pass will definitely arrive. When you receive the ball under the basket, you must shoot quickly. Foul, get killed by you, or watch you layup, of course, he may block you, his bounce is quite good, and he can occasionally block one.”
“That’s fine, I’ll try.”
In the second half, Dayao sometimes pulled out, or even pulled directly to the three-point line, making a high fort. The Pistons couldn’t defend at all, but the touch was really not good, so more often he went directly to the basket to get a position. While strengthening the offense at the basket, it also continuously caused fouls by Big Ben and Rasheed Wallace. The situation in the third quarter did improve. He scored 14 points in the quarter with a penalty. After the third quarter, the Nets Go-ahead by 3 points.
In the final quarter, due to physical exhaustion, Dayao missed two offenses at the basket and made a mistake in catching the ball once, leading to a one-point overtake. He had to pull out more and use energy-saving mid-range shots and three-pointers to attack. , barely bit the score.
With seven seconds left in the game, Kidd accidentally made a three-pointer to tie the score.
The Pistons had the ball, Larry Brown called a timeout in advance, and then served from the sideline of the front court. The undead masked man Hamilton ran wildly, threw away the defender, and hit a mid-range shot on the right wing , Killing the Nets.
It is estimated that Dayao returned to the locker room. Lao Wang made a phone call and comforted him: “Dayao, does it feel good to be lore? You can’t even do the undrafted pick of Daben. Your No. 1 pick is made of sponge. There is moisture!”
“Brother, what you said is too shocking. Anyway, I also scored 29 points today. Is my performance not that bad? I think I am okay!”
“What is your field goal percentage?”
“Uh, 46 percent.”
“Look, you don’t even have a 50% hit rate. No wonder you were killed. But if the efficiency is higher, will they have a chance to kill you? As a big center, this is an unqualified performance. Is it wrong for me to comfort you? ?”
“No, brother, you are right to comfort me, you continue, I’m dead.”
Old Wang looked at the beeping mobile phone, and said with a smile: “Little bastard, if you dare to hang up on me, if you dare to enter the finals, I will definitely sweep you kid.”
On the 20th, the G2 game of the Western Conference Finals.
The Suns continued to play the tactics of the G1 game, taking advantage of the Blazers’ weakness of insufficient inside substitutes, and using fast break tactics to consume the physical energy of Duncan and Randolph.
However, this game didn’t go as smoothly as it did in the game. It wasn’t that the Blazers found a solution to the problem, but that they were in a mediocre state. , Under Payton’s defense, he made as many as 8 turnovers, so after the first three quarters, the Suns fell behind by 6 points.
Lao Wang’s own touch is also average. He made 7 of 15 shots in the first three quarters, and his shooting percentage was less than 50%. He missed several layups and missed two dunks. Free throws are also bad today, only 5 of 10 free throws, and only scored 19 points after three quarters.
“What the hell, it’s the turn of that boy Dayao to comfort me now.”
When he played in the last quarter, Pharaoh stood up from the bench and muttered.
