NBA: I am a master dealer

Chapter 196 I, Big Zhan Huang, are impatient again!
Owen tried to break through.

Then suddenly turned over.

Everyone thought that Irving was going to vote, but in the end he chose an internal pass.

Facing Gasol Jr., Mozgov didn't know if he lacked confidence, so he threw the ball almost without hesitation.

King James, who was off the ball, also took advantage of this opportunity to suddenly run back and cut in.

Start directly.

Sure enough, the sneak attack came.

But the Heat have been prepared for this, Gasol Jr. sits at the basket, Ibaka also shrinks in, and Batum also tightens the penalty area.

Coupled with Mozgov of the Cavaliers and PJ-Tucker chasing behind.

The entire paint area seemed extremely crowded.

The Great Zhan Huang took two steps and found out in embarrassment that he couldn't get in.

But when it comes to passing the ball...

It seems that there is no absolute space for teammates.

In a dilemma, he made a decision.

Move sideways and jump, and shoot directly from the middle distance.

Bang!

Hard work.

This kind of emergency stop jump shot is actually not my favorite offensive mode.

The middle distance is not my comfort zone of James King.

So it's normal to miss a shot with an iron.

But Xue Liancheng's eyes lit up slightly.

Does this indicate that I, James, don't feel good in this game?
If so, great.

Ibaka protected the rebound and found Xue Liancheng immediately.

The Heat's counterattack in defensive conversion was very fierce.

But because of Wade's absence, they lost an arrow figure, and it is almost unnecessary to expect to score easily.

After all, my big James, Irving, and JR-Smith are not slow, and I retreated back immediately.

But defensive conversion and counterattack is not just about fast break.

It is also one of them to take advantage of the opponent's unstable foothold to quickly complete the three-point chase.

One of the Warriors' signature offenses is the three-point chase.

Xue Liancheng also stole it.

After rushing two steps away from the three-point line, he suddenly accelerated with a heavy waist, which scared Owen back quickly.

And Xue Liancheng took the opportunity to brake and jumped straight away.

Raise your hand and vote.

Owen came to his senses, and when he rushed to defend, Xue Liancheng had already completed his shot.

The ball spins in mid-air.

Swish.

Three points.

Xue Liancheng smiled at Owen, "How is it, is it okay?"

Owen replied blankly, "It's not bad, it feels good."

The scene was silent at this time.

5:0
Faintly, they had a bad premonition inexplicably.

Ok?
why?
It seems that in the last Christmas game, they were also beaten by the Heat at the beginning. Isn't this opening just like deja vu?

Ernie Johnson: "Xue feels good. It seems that the direction of this game will become very exciting as we expected."

O'Neal joked: "Xue seems to be determined to beat LeBron."

Barkley: "I hope Xue will continue to maintain his touch. If he can compete with LeBron, it will be even better."

But O'Neal said: "Based on these two rounds, it is difficult for LeBron to soar."

Barkley has a different opinion: "During the Christmas game, LeBron played really badly, but I think you should know him better than me. His strength is beyond doubt. It is not a simple task to successfully contain LeBron." thing."

O'Neal: "This is not necessarily the case. We all know that LeBron needs to start rushing to cause huge damage to the penalty area, but the Heat's defensive formation has caused great trouble to LeBron's breakthrough. PJ-Tucker is a The strong defensive gate with a very stable chassis, Ibaka's defense speed is very fast, and Gasol Jr. covers a very wide range of the basket. That is to say, if LeBron wants to break through to the basket, he needs to break through the triple barrier. Right now, it’s not that easy.”

This explanation hits the nail on the head, pointing out the current dilemma that my great Zhan Huang is facing.

Although Barkley agreed, he reiterated his opinion: "Yes, LeBron's way to get rid of Tucker now is to pick and roll and off the ball. One of the best rim protectors in recent years, but he is LeBron James, the most powerful player in the league, I have not seen any team can completely contain it, let alone... Tower Although his strength is strong, his height is too short. Although Ibaka has good physical talent and outstanding running and jumping ability, he is slightly lighter in weight, which is not much different from James. Although Gasol Jr. has a large tonnage, his speed and lateral movement are obvious. Slow down, these are their weaknesses, not invulnerable, I think LeBron will find a way to solve it."

The rebuttal is also reasonable.

In terms of James' draft evaluation, the fast ones are not as tall as him, the tall ones are not as strong as him, and the strong ones are not as fast as him.

What is Hexagon Warrior?
James is the hexagonal warrior on the basketball court.

While the two were arguing.

James has beckoned Mozgov and initiated the pick-and-roll.

After going around.

Suddenly found that Gasol Jr. was posing to welcome his arrival.

Although it is not a problem that James has a hard face, the problem is that he needs to start rushing in order to be invincible.

Now a player of Gasol's tonnage is lying there, making him hesitate subconsciously.

But in an instant, he made a decision, gritted his teeth and started.

The speed is fast, and the action looks strong and powerful.

But Gasol was more than one step away from him, obviously in a posture of preventing breakthroughs and not preventing shots.

and so……

As a result, after James started a step, before he had time to rush up, he had a fierce body collision with Gasol Jr.

As an inside player, Gasol Jr. has a tonnage, strong strength, and a stable chassis. There is no doubt about it.

Although James is not weak, he is far from being comparable to Gasol Jr.

and so.

After a pause, James' speed advantage is not so obvious, and Gasol is smart enough to know how to put flesh on James, so James can only rely on pure brute force to stand up.

After taking two more steps, he found that he couldn't go on.

Want to pass the ball?

However, he found that his breakthrough did not effectively tear the Heat's defense at all. Except for PJ-Tucker's defense change, there was basically no change.

and……

PJ-Tucker defended Mozgov with his butt pouted, and Mozgov failed to get a favorable position.

so special...

Not in position, that is, not ready to catch the ball.

Damn it!
Between lightning and flint.

James gritted his teeth again to make a decision, and took bigger steps.

Although the speed advantage is not obvious, the advantage is still there.

End up at the basket.

He finally got stuck, and jumped to the other side in the form of a jump, trying to get stronger.

pity.

Gasol Jr. reaches out and covers too much area.

As a result, James had to lean his body, forcefully take off and stay in the air, like twisting a twist, the movement of the shot was directly deformed.

and so……

Bang!

Another shot of fine iron.

Gasol Jr. protected the rebounds.

When retreating, James looked extremely ugly.

After the pick-and-roll, Gasol's unprepared shooting strategy made his breakthrough extremely uncomfortable.

What makes him even more uncomfortable is that after confronting a tonnage player like Gasol Jr., he has to force his shots at the basket.

Doing so will obviously cause huge disturbances.

This is not at all the offensive rhythm he likes.

He likes to rush up...

The point is to get up...

After rushing up, even if he encounters confrontation, he is not afraid.

My worst fear is that if I don't rush up, I will encounter a strong confrontation.

How unlucky.

Ok……

It's been two consecutive irons!

As the saying goes, some people are happy and others are sad.

If someone is sad, there must be someone who is happy.

And that person was naturally Xue Liancheng.

My Big James actually suffered a big loss from Gasol's strong top defense, which proves that his original idea was correct, and this deal is really worth it.

Why does James seem to struggle when he meets the Spurs many times?
that is because……

The defensive strategy I encountered with James was just like this round.

After the pick-and-roll, he can't prevent the shot.

Duncan also took advantage of the tonnage to prevent James from rushing up. As a result, James could only force himself under the basket, unable to cause effective damage, let alone tear the defense.

In 07, Duncan was at his peak, with nimble footwork, still moving laterally, and his defensive ability was no worse than that of Gasol Jr., which made Zhan Zhan's life worse than death.

In 13 and 14, Duncan was obviously much older and his pace slowed down, but he still implemented this tactic.

At this time, James has reached the peak. Although he has scored some points, he has not been able to drive his teammates. This is the reason.

If you are not allowed to rush up, you can only rush to score, if you have the ability, you will get it, but this will cut off your connection with your teammates.

To know.

The most powerful thing about James is not just the breakthrough, but the superb combination of breakthroughs and points.

Once there are only bursts and no points, James' power will drop sharply.

Coupled with Leonard's full-court lead defense, it put a lot of pressure on James and made James very uncomfortable.

And now.

The Heat's defensive strategy is similar to that of the Spurs.

It also relies on the top inside defensive players' anti-punching and non-defense shots, as well as the top-level power-type defensive gates to lead the defense to delay James' impact.

only.

The difference is that the two defensive champions have changed from Duncan and Leonard to Gasol Jr. and PJ-Tucker.

of course.

Not without a solution.

If James doesn't beckon inside players to perform pick-and-rolls, then all problems can be solved.

Or when the opponent is not defending against a breakthrough, he directly withdraws three-pointers. As long as it is accurate enough, a few three-pointers can disintegrate this defensive strategy.

But here's the problem.

If I don't pick and roll, I may not be able to rush through the breakthrough of King James, let alone facing a defensive gate of the level of Leonard or PJ-Tucker, it is equally uncomfortable.

A breakthrough that cannot be rushed is like a chicken rib to James.

If you don't pull the inside players out for pick-and-rolls, Gasol will squat in the penalty area, which is also uncomfortable for James.

As for three points?
This shit is one of my biggest weaknesses.

The three-pointer is unstable and can easily kill himself.

and so……

This is definitely a headache for James.

Only when the state is good enough can the situation be broken with a crushing force.

But look now...

My big James is in a very average state, very, very average.

This was why Xue Liancheng was excited.

If James is hammered again in this game, then he will really be praised by countless fans.

Popularity may really break through the sky...

after all……

My current No.1 position in the league is still very stable, and although he is already on the way to hit the MVP, there is a gulf-like gap with my big James in terms of qualifications and status.

Hammering LeBron, this gap can be evened out a lot immediately.

Think so.

He has rushed to the front field.

Also taking advantage of the Cavaliers' defensive formation failing to take shape, he wanted to replicate the quick scoring of the round just now.

But Owen is obviously not a fool. After lying down on a puddle once, naturally he won't lie down a second time.

This time he followed Xue Liancheng closely and no longer gave Xue Liancheng room to shoot.

But it's too tight.

It is easy to cause the two sides to have no sense of distance, and fast players can pass people in one step.

Xue Liancheng is not a speed guard, but it does not prevent him from watching Irving's defense, which is full of loopholes.

A body rocks forward.

Crotch dribble.

Put Irving's center of gravity back.

Directly rely on strength, forcibly straight.

Owen could only chase after him in a stuck position.

But the tonnage and strength of the two are terribly disparate.

Owen's hanging on the wall basically did not have much impact on Xue Liancheng.

Coupled with the fact that the inside players on both sides failed to run back, the front was empty, and the Cavaliers players did not dare to really jump over to help defend.

finally.

Xue Liancheng directly forced it.

2 points easy to get.

Ernie Johnson: "Xue's strength advantage is too obvious. In fact, I still don't understand it now. With Xue's breakthrough efficiency, he shouldn't fall to the second round."

This kind of strength and tonnage can crush a group of defenders, even if a small forward comes to defend, it may not be possible to get a bargain.

These things, scouts should be able to see.

O'Neill smiled wryly: "The NBA draft is about talent and potential. After the talent and potential players are selected, they will consider immediate players. This is why the Magic are willing to use the fourth pick to select Xue Liancheng's teammate Feng Lai. And the reason for not Xue Liancheng, um... perfectly missed a rookie season and played an MVP-level player."

Magic was picked up again to flog the corpse.

The game continues.

The Cavaliers attack.

In this round, James finally changed his strategy and came to the low post to ask for the ball.

Barkley: "LeBron's ability to adjust is very good, and he finally knows how to make a big fuss about taking advantage of Tucker's short stature."

O'Neill was stunned for a moment, then looked at Barbakley, "Eh... If I remember correctly, your height should be only 198cm, and there may not be any inside players who can eat you raw in the low post."

At this moment, Buckley's expression brightened, and he was tongue-tied for a while, "Uh..."

The gap between the two talking.

James has already got the ball, pouted his ass and hit PJ-Tucker.

James' size, tonnage, and strength are indeed larger than Tucker.

But Tucker is not vegetarian either.

His top defense is very strong, leaning forward, pressing all his weight up, converging into one point, and constantly putting pressure on James.

Besides.

Taking advantage of his short stature, Tucker would push his knees from time to time, which made me very uncomfortable.

It collided several times.

Finally near the free throw line to stand in the pile position.

James joined the ball and moved left and right, trying to use his footsteps to shake Tucker away.

pity.

Tucker stood still.

I don't know if it's because my footsteps are too bad, or Tucker's defensive awareness is too strong.

Anyway...

After a long time, James failed to find a favorable position.

He simply pressed his elbow directly against Tucker and forcibly threw the shot.

He just wanted to bully Tucker for being short.

The idea is correct.

But the effect is not good.

Strike the iron again.

This time.

I, Big James, are not happy.

Jumping and jumping, he complained loudly to the referee.

Anyway, Xue Liancheng doesn't know what I, Big Zhan Huang, want to do.

Tucker just stretched out his hands and didn't even jump. The defensive action was quite clean, and even Tucker's chest was still pressed against my big iron elbow.

If you say foul, you should also call me Big James.

result.

Tucker hasn't complained to the referee yet, and I, James, fell ill again, so I justly asked the referee for the whistle.

Really are……

"If you don't take advantage, you will suffer" is engraved into the DNA of the gene.

Like a giant baby, he needs others to take care of him, and needs others to let him.

otherwise……

My big Zhan Huang cried to the referee Ba ​​Ba.

Seriously...

If someone else had complained to the referee and asked for the whistle, he would have lost count of how many technical fouls he had been called.

It's your turn to Bibi Lai Lai...

Even a player of Wade's level can only get a big warning if he comes forward to make such a theory.

result.

I am so dazed that I am all right.

Even being coaxed by the referee like a child, what a historical spectacle!

Of course, Xue Liancheng didn't have time to talk to me, Big Zhan, and rushed forward with the ball.

Once you see it, you won't be able to stop it.

In addition, my big James didn't come back, and the inside players didn't come back either.

Owen immediately made a decision, and reached out to Xue Liancheng's waist.

This kind of ball must be fouled.

And Xue Liancheng had been prepared for a long time. The moment Owen reached out to touch him, he pulled it up and shot.

whistle.

The ball goes in.

This time.

Owen was dumbfounded.

And at this time.

My big Zhanhuang finally came back and saw that Xue Liancheng not only scored a goal, but also drew a foul.

My big Zhan Huang's whole face turned green.

He didn't stare at Owen, but gave Xue Liancheng a cold look, as if to say: Wait, you are dead.

Xue Liancheng was overjoyed, and smiled at Owen: "You shouldn't have fouled, it's easy to take the blame."

The insinuation, the gun and the stick, the meaning can no longer be obvious.

Owen froze for a moment, but didn't say anything...

My big Zhan Huang heard it, but my hair blew up. I went up to meet him and stared at him coldly, "What did you say? Say it again..."

The corner of Xue Liancheng's mouth twitched slightly, "I said that some people are like crying babies. When they see their father, they will cry loudly. I don't know why..."

I lost...

Who are you scaring?

What he is least afraid of is being intimidated by others.

As soon as this word comes out.

James was about to burst into tears, like a ferocious beast out of the cage, with a ferocious appearance that made people daunting.

But Xue Liancheng was not afraid at all: "Hey... why did you change your face? It's amazing!"

My Big James is impatient again.

Don't know why.

He just feels happy...
