God of NBA point guards

Chapter 556 Absolutely!

On the court, the US team was still on a fast break. Gary Payton quickly advanced to the top of the arc. This time Hu Weidong did not give him a chance to break in easily. He took advantage of the situation and stopped and stepped back, retreated to the three-point line, and then took action.

Hu Weidong rushed back and jumped to block the shot without touching the ball.

"boom!"

But Payton is not a great shooter, and the ball missed.

After Dayao grabbed the rebound, Garnett stepped in front to prevent him from passing the ball quickly.

Different from the group stage, the Chinese team did not play fast break today. Zhou Quan came down to receive the ball and advanced to the frontcourt unhurriedly. After everyone else from both sides had passed, he pulled to the middle and approached. Arc top.

Kidd was fully focused, leaning down, ready to deal with the Iron Fist King's breakthrough.

At the same time, he also opened his ears and paid attention to whether there was anyone coming up behind him to set up a screen for the Iron Fist King.

"No, I've been fooled!"

But the next moment, Zhou Quan faked a real shot. After shaking him off, he immediately took a step back and then shot a three-pointer. The pace was so fast that he had no time to defend back.

"brush!"

Splashes appeared, and the three-pointer was hit.

Looking at Kidd, who looked a little frustrated, Zhou Quan smiled and said: "Jason, I know how to fight Gary Payton the last time. Do you know how to defend me next time?"

"..."

Kidd was startled, what is this?A preview of King of Iron Fist?
"Iron Fist King, what do you want to do?
Not far away, Gary Payton's brain was instantly congested.

"Crack clap..."

On the sidelines, reporters familiar with Zhou Quan clicked their shutters excitedly.

"It's started. I knew the trailer for King of Iron Fist was about to start. No, it's already started."

"It's been twice. The first one was a breakaway, and the second one was a fake breakout. I copied the glove attack method. Haha, it's so exciting!"

"I think Gary Payton must have found it exciting!"

"Yes, it must be exciting to be Iron Fist's opponent."

While taking pictures, media reporters were also talking about it.

At 3:11, the US team attacked and Tomjanovich called a timeout.

I can't help but fall behind by 8 points at the start. If I keep playing, I'll fall behind by 10 points in less than half a quarter and 20 points in one quarter. Who can bear it?

He came up with the strongest defensive lineup of the Dream Fourth Team, but he still couldn't prevent the Chinese team's offense, and he couldn't attack his own offense, so he was in a dilemma.

The dual point guard tactic has a big weakness, and that is the lack of impact.

He wanted to use fast breaks and use these players to impact the old and weak lineup of the Chinese team, but he ignored the lack of impact of this lineup.

Because of these five people, only one Ray Allen can really hit the penalty area. Whether it is Kidd or Payton, they are both point guards, and their explosive impact is far less than that of shooting guards and small forwards.

Ray Allen's way of attacking the penalty area is also biased towards dunking. His offensive ability with the ball is much worse than that of the Iron Fist King, so he was blocked twice by the Iron Fist King just now.

He now realizes that if he wants to maintain this lineup, it seems difficult to play the offense he wants on the offensive end.

After thinking about it, he realized that this lineup could not prevent the Chinese team's attack anyway, so he simply decided to adjust the lineup.

Instead of playing two point guards, replace Gary Payton and replace him with... Vince Carter or Alan Houston?
He decided to replace Carter. After all, Carter loves attacking the basket more than mid-range shots.

He was a little regretful that Kobe did not join this Dream Team. Although Carter was good, he was only good at dunks and his finishing skills at the basket were not as comprehensive as Kobe's.

No, not right!

He was suddenly startled, this was about to happen, why not just not use the point guard?
Thinking of this, his heart beat faster.

This is a risk. Instead of a point guard, there are three shooting guards and small forwards who can attack the basket. The impact will definitely increase, but without a point guard, it also means that they will fight on their own. Is it possible?
But time waits for no one, so he gritted his teeth and decided to try it first and then make adjustments if it didn't work.

"Gary, you come down first." He said to Payton.

"what?"

When he heard that he was replaced, Gary Payton's eyes widened and his heart suddenly became angry.

That guy just targeted me in public. You turned around and replaced me. Don't I want to lose face?

Kidd is a good comrade, and Payton is also his childhood friend. I remember when he was only a few years old, he learned good trash talk from Payton. He couldn't bear to be embarrassed, and immediately said: "Coach, Let me come down first."

Tomjanovich shook his head and said: "What I mean is that you all come down. Now only Ray can hit the basket. This is not enough. Our offense cannot be opened. We now need to increase our ability to hit the basket and increase our ability to hit the basket." The height on the floor, controlling the rebounds, we need to get two more guys up there who can get to the rim and rebound the ball.”

"what?"

The two were shocked. Who is responsible for organizing the offense without the point guard?What do you want to do?
"Ray, Vince, Sharif..."

Tomjanovich said to Ray Allen, Carter, and Raheem: "The next three of you will attack with the ball. I don't expect your organization. After you get the ball, you have only one task, to attack their basket. Knock down their two centers and cause damage to them. If the Chinese team does not have the two big centers to contain them in the low post, they will not be able to beat us from the outside alone, do you understand?"

"Understood." The three of them said hurriedly.

Kidd and Payton felt very disappointed. An iron fist champion actually forced their dream team to not dare to hire a point guard. What kind of threat is this?

"Remember, whoever Tekken follows must be pulled close to the sideline. His only offensive task is to contain the Tekken King." Tomjanovich said seriously.

"Yes."

"Sharif, you are also responsible for grabbing rebounds. I hope you, Kevin and Alonzo will suppress the Chinese team on rebounds. The person opposite you is a small forward and he is not tall enough. I suggest You pull him down low and beat him in isolation."

"Yes."

The timeout ends and Team USA goes on the offensive.

Seeing the lineup of the US team, everyone who knew about penalty kicks was dumbfounded.

"What do you want to do?" Jordan was a little confused and didn't react.

"Don't want a point guard?" Xu Jicheng's eyes widened.

"Rahim went up. This is to increase his height and control the rebound. Rahim can also attack with the ball. He can be three or four, inside or outside. With two guards, three people can be used. When attacking with the ball, he can also pass the ball and assist, and he is not without some organizational skills." Zhang Liang said.

"What is the American team preparing to do?" Sun Zhenping asked.

Zhang Lili said quickly: "Increase offensive firepower and impact on the basket. Rahim, Carter, and Ray Allen can all be said to be dunkers. The reason why both point guards were replaced, I think, is to consider Even if one is left behind, he will definitely be locked up by Zhou Quan. It would be better to leave none at all.

But I think this method is too bold. If you leave a point guard behind, you can use a pick-and-roll to get rid of Zhou Quan. There is no need to go to extremes. "

Xu Jicheng smiled and said: "Director Zhang wants to dig a hole for the American team. NBA teams do the same thing, but it is not easy to get rid of Zhou Quan."

Zhang Lili laughed and did not deny it, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Between Vince Carter and Ray Allen, Zhou Quan followed the latter.

Rahim plays small forward for the Grizzlies, but he is the height of a power forward, 206 centimeters tall, and can also play the fourth position. He cannot guard him.

Rahim served the ball and gave it to Carter. Carter advanced to the frontcourt against Hu Weidong. At this time, Rahim entered the low post on the left wing. Garnett gave up that position and passed the ball.

"It's a bit troublesome to play Sun Jun in the low post. We must strengthen the weak side defense." Zhang Liji said immediately.

Sun Jun is 8 centimeters shorter than Rahim, but his weight is about the same.

Raheem is strong in offense and defense, has good pace, is proficient in back-up play, is good at one-handed throws after turning around in the low post, and also prefers to go for dunks.

He arched the ball after catching the ball. After arching Sun Jun's center of gravity, he immediately turned around and rushed into the penalty area.

Dayao and Dazhi returned to defend the basket at the same time, but at this moment, Rahim suddenly rose up, shot a ball from the left side of the basket, and scored the ball.

"Sun Jun can't guard against this kind of ball. He is only 198 centimeters tall. This is a misplaced single in the low post." Xu Jicheng said.

"We are short of power forwards. The height of the center position has increased, but the power forward, Gong Xiaobin, is two meters tall and has not come yet this time." Sun Zhenping said.

At this time Jiang Xinquan regretted it and should have brought Gong Xiaobin with him.

Although that stubborn guy is only two centimeters taller than Sun Jun, he is a real power forward and the best power forward in the country. Although Sun Jun is the best small forward in the country, the skills of the two positions are completely different. .

5:11, the Chinese team attacks.

Dayao advanced to the basket, and Garnett no longer carried the ball as hard as he did in the group stage, which consumed too much energy. Instead, he moved forward.

Dayao had no choice but to come out first. Just as Garnett followed him out, he suddenly made a reverse run and entered the penalty area again.

His pace is very good, known as the Shanghai Dance. Garnett was also caught off guard and was half a beat behind the pace.

At the top of the arc, Ray Allen defended Zhou Quan.

Zhou Quan did not intend to be the main attacker in the first quarter. His main attack time is usually when Dayao and Dazhi are resting, so that their physical energy can be used more effectively.

His gaze was not in the low post, but towards the right wing, as if he was preparing to pass the ball to Hu Weidong, who was running on the right wing, but Dayao's every move was under his lock.

The moment Dayao ran back, he immediately joined the ball, and then pushed to the right wing with both hands.

Ray Allen was fooled and shifted his weight to the right, but in the next moment, Zhou Quan retracted his hands and threw them forward. The basketball flew straight from Ray Allen's head to the left side of the basket.

"boom!"

Yao Min cut into the penalty area and caught the ball in two steps, completing a two-handed dunk.

Whether it was his reverse run or Zhou Quan's pass, they were all very sudden, giving Mourning no chance to return to the basket.

"Absolutely amazing! The cooperation between Dayao and Zhou Quan is amazing!" Xu Jicheng said in surprise.

"This should be normal tactical training, right?" Sun Zhenping said.
