Showdown, I'm the God of Basketball

Chapter 529 Don't look at him
"This ball is beautiful!" Yu Jia raised his arms and shouted.

Zhao Hao entered the penalty area and successfully dunked against Ray Allen and Pierce's defense, scoring a 2+1 that boosted morale.

The first period of the game is over.

At 30:26, the Bucks led by 4 points.

It's just that no one thought that when Zhao Hao's free throw whistle blew the single quarter, Perkins lowered his head and pretended to return to the Celtics bench, but directly rushed towards Zhao Hao.

boom!
This top force was heavy, and Zhao Hao was also staggered directly by the push.

"Perkins can do this!" Kenny Smith said helplessly.

Perkins is currently one of the top blue-collar players in the league. With his short height of 208cm, he can't jump yet, but he can play such a world in the league. Naturally, he is different.

"That's dirty! Why are you making so many excuses!

Moving screens, illegal offenses, dribbling, black elbows, aerial pushes, Perkins has done it all!
Perkins just has a lot of small moves, playing dirty, and there is nothing to wash, so he has to admit it. "

Groom Albert was just about to rant against Perkins, and there was already a lot of trouble on the court because of the provocation after the game.

Yao Ming didn't know that Perkins' small moves against the Bucks players throughout the game, but he and Zhao Hao had the same idea. The overall strength of the Bucks is not strong. If both he and Zhao Hao are impulsive If there is a foul or a technical foul on his back, it will undoubtedly be a bolt from the blue for the team.

"But labor and capital can't take it anymore!"

Yao Ming blocked Perkins from holding back his hands, but he also pushed his chest against the opponent's head, cursing: "You little dwarf!"

Perkins raised his head, looked at Yao Ming, who was showing off his sense of superiority, and said unconvinced: "I'm just short! But I'm not small!"

Ramon Sessions and Desmond Mason couldn't bear it anymore, and followed Yao Ming's command and rushed over.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Perkins was a little overwhelmed, and hurried to his player's bench, just as Pierce and Rondo also came to support him.

Zhao Hao stopped Dayao and others who were still trying to chase after him, and smiled to indicate that he was fine.

Seeing that Zhao Hao didn't immediately rush over to retaliate, Reggie Miller, who once dared to beat even Gang Leader Qiao, frowned slightly and was very dissatisfied.

"You've bullied him like this, and he won't go?
If it was our era, it would have become a gang fight long ago!

I misread Zhao Hao, he is a coward! "

Barkley patted Reggie Miller on the shoulder, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Reggie, you say Zhao Hao is a coward?"

Reggie Miller nodded, wondering why Barkley laughed so much.

Barkley said: "Don't dare to talk to Bowen in the playoffs, and you dare not say much about each other, do you know this?"

Reggie Miller shook his head, but he also knew that Bowen was notoriously ruthless on the court, and the Spurs' well-known outside defensive leader, but also a dirty bunch, nicknamed the master of stepping.

"One of the Pistons bully Wallace brothers, Rasheed Wallace, was ridden with a hammer for 5 minutes. Do you know about this?" Barkley continued to ask.

Reggie Miller still shook his head, but he also knew how much he hated the Pistons' Wallace double bully. Back then, the Pistons bully composed of Rasheed and Big Ben Wallace disgusted Shaquille O'Neal in the finals.

Barkley sighed and finally said: "It just happened a while ago. Someone kicked Mosaic team center Bogut in the balls three times on the court, and directly fucked him to the hospital for a week. You must know about this. !"

Reggie Miller nodded suddenly and said: "I know about this! I heard that the man's every kick was accurate, and the last kick kicked him so that he lay on the ground and howled."

Barkley laughed so hard that he leaned back and forth and said intermittently: "It's Zhao Hao who did all these things!
The key is that he can still escape the referee's eyes every time, not only makes others unable to take care of themselves, but also hides his merits and fame after doing it!

So this is not a coward, but a bastard! "

With that said, Barkley also pointed to Zhao Hao who was talking and laughing with his teammates on the Bucks bench.

"Look, how happy he is smiling, and how miserable Perkins will be cleaned up later."

The second game.

Rivers called all the substitute players to his side, and at the same time let Paul Pierce lead the team in the second quarter, which shows how much he attaches importance to this quarter.

"We lost to the Bucks in the first quarter, the alliance between Yao Ming and Zhao Hao is indeed not for nothing, but it doesn't matter!
In the second quarter, they will definitely let the two rest. This is also the best time for us to comeback. We must approach the score in the first half of the second quarter and play an advantage! "

Celtics bench lineup: point guard Sam - Cassell, shooting guard Pierce, small forward Tony Allen, power forward James - Posey, center big baby Davis.

"This substitute lineup looks enticing." Kenny Smith said enviously.

Bucks bench lineup: Charlie Bell, Roy Ivey, Bobby Simmons, Yi Jianlian and Michael Ruffin.

Looking back at the Bucks' bench lineup, Kenny Smith is a bit helpless.

Except for Yi Jianlian, the rest of the people are just a bunch of mobs.

"But in the last round of the series, the Bucks' substitutes played well, at least on the defensive end.

Game start.

The alien Cassel advanced with the ball, Pierce held the ball outside the three-point line, and Roy Ivey was defending him.

Roy Ivey was originally a player who was about to leave the league. Fortunately, with his hard work, his three-pointers have improved and he can gradually gain a foothold in the league. He just wants to defend Pierce alone, which is still a big gap heat.

Pierce broke through, turned around with his waist back, and got rid of Roy Ivey with his right hand at the same time.

Swish!
Step-back jumper from the free throw line, the ball goes in!
"Although the Celtics' bench lineup is good enough, Rivers is still cautious in sending Pierce on the court.

The talents of these Bucks players are not high. Now that they encounter Pierce's dimensionality reduction blow, they will be in great trouble. "

Reggie Miller also wanted to say that Pierce hardly participated in any team offense in the first quarter. Instead, Ray Allen and Lewis threw off their sleeves to attack. Obviously, this was arranged by the Celtics in advance. Pierce, who is more capable in singles, came to reap the game in the second quarter.

And Pierce is worthy of being a kaleidoscope on the offensive end. He and Zhao Hao are also the most proficient in using the emerging offensive skill of stepping back and picking shots.

In the next round, Pierce's waist attracted double-teams, and then passed to the cutting alien Cassel. A Sterile strong scored on the offensive rebound.

"The Bucks were blown up by the Celtics on the defensive end!"

To switch offense, Yi Jianlian holds the ball in a high position.

This season's Yi Jianlian has surprised many people, and he is also considered to be the second rookie this season after Durant.

Rivers knows very well that this almost prevents half of the Bucks' bench offense.

So he specially arranged a defensive gift for Yi Jianlian during the substitute period.

"It's not power forward James Posey, or Big Baby Davis, who defends Yi Jianlian from beyond the three-point line, but Tony Allen!?"

Yu Jia couldn't understand what was going on with the Celtics. Tony Allen was only 193cm tall. Let him defend the 213cm Yi Jianlian?

Zhang Weiping was surprised at the side, "It happened!"

"James Posey is only 203cm tall. If he wants to defend Yi Jianlian, not only can't keep up with his height, but he himself is not good at defending.

Not to mention the big baby Davis, who is 206cm tall and weighs close to Yao Ming's weight after losing weight this season. One can imagine how slow his steps are!

Two people defending Xiao Yi will definitely be blown up. "

Yu Jia was dissatisfied and said: "Then Tony Allen is fine? Isn't he shorter?"

Zhang Weiping shook his head and said: "Tony Allen's perimeter defense is the best in the league. This season he played as a substitute for the Celtics, but he was nominated as the league's second defense. In the votes, he was only one move away. To Shane Battier.

If it weren't for the short playing time and the lack of impressive defensive statistics, he would be a proper second-defense player! "

Although Yu Jia didn't know whether Tony Allen's defense was as good as Director Zhang said, but he knew the blindfold master Shane Battier's defense!
"It's just that Tony Allen is just an outside defensive player no matter what, and Yi Jianlian is an inside player!"

Zhang Weiping pointed to the screen on the court and said, "Then look at where Xiao Yi is now!"

Yu Jia shouted in shock: "Outside the three-point line!"

On the court, Yi Jianlian didn't know how powerful Tony Allen was. Seeing the opponent's defense so close to the front, he stepped back and dribbled the ball and was about to break through.

call!
Tony Allen's defensive action is fast!Consciousness is also sufficient!
As soon as Yi Jianlian threw the ball, he immediately rushed up.

Snapped!
"The ball is broken! And it's so clean!"

Tony Allen made a fast break, looked at the empty basket in front of him and didn't choose to make a layup, but gave it to Pierce who followed up.

Kenny Smith couldn't help but cover his face.

"You don't even dare to play an empty basket?

You really don't know how to attack at all! "

Relying on the strong defense of the bench and Pierce's offense, the Celtics overtook the score in just 3 minutes.

Cole decisively stopped the timeout and asked all the substitute players to come down and take a rest.

As he said in the first quarter, the Celtics played a very aggressive defense from the very beginning of the game.

2-3 zone defense, 5-man double-team against Yao Ming, frequent upper body against Zhao Hao, and now targeted deployments are also made against Yi Jianlian.

The Bucks' offense was completely suppressed!

And offense is the foundation of the Bucks. If the Bucks still can't play offense in the next time, then this game will be lost.

"This is the intensity of the playoffs, and this is the strength of a strong team!"

Zhao Hao's sudden utterance attracted everyone and said, "It's totally worthwhile for us to be able to enter the playoffs for the first time and face such an opponent, which is already very remarkable.

But we have to adapt as soon as possible and play our due performance! "

Zhao Hao, who has long been used to the big scenes in the playoffs, is also the only player on the Bucks with semifinal or even higher stage experience.

Now he has to bring that experience to his teammates as well.

Lufen said shamelessly: "Boss is right!"

Everyone cheered up, as long as Zhao Hao was around, they always felt full of confidence for no reason.

Cole re-examined the Celtics' defensive strategy, knowing that the opponent he was facing now was terrifyingly strong, so he had to make a decision.

"I'm shortening the rotation!"

No one on the Bucks bench knows who will be DNP in the next time, nor does it know whether the players who are put on the bench will have a chance to play after Coach Cole shortens the rotation.

But no one cares about that.

Lufen was the first to say: "DNP me! It's just that the boss is talking, and I will never say a single word!"

Charlie Bell echoed and said: "Swap me, coach, I'm willing to do anything for the team to win!"

The voices of the players were one after another, but Coach Cole turned his attention to Roy Ivey, who worked the hardest this season and often practiced after games.

"Pierce is the most critical point in the Celtics lineup. Only by limiting their offense can we launch a quick counterattack!"

Cole said firmly.

In other words, it will be difficult for Roy Ivey to play in the entire next series between the Bucks and the Celtics!

Roy Aiwei stood up and looked at Zhao Hao without any complaints, and said, "Boss! Go and avenge me! I will also cheer for everyone below!"

The Bucks adjusted the bench lineup.

Charlie Bell, Zhao Hao, Bobby Simmons, Charlie Villanueva and Yi Jianlian.

"Hey! This substitute rotation has never been seen by the Bucks before!"

Rivers frowned slightly in surprise, and then quickly replaced Rondo to deliberately target.

"If Tony Allen almost made it to the league's second defense this season, then Rajon Rondo is the real second defense player!

The Celtics want to use Rajon Rondo and Tony Allen to limit Zhao Hao's death! "

Zhao Hao held the ball from the outside, but Pierce didn't even dare to face him. Instead, Tony Allen was replaced by Tony Allen to defend him, and Rondo was always ready to help defend at the waist.

Seeing Tony Allen's almost perfect defensive position, and deliberately exposing the breakthrough space on the right hand side as a trap, Zhao Hao smiled slightly.

"This should be the second time I have encountered such a good matchup defense after Corvo."

Zhao Hao's interest was aroused in his heart, and the almost crazy singles emotions of last season came to his heart.

Hold the ball, break through, step back!

Tony Allen kept up with Zhao Hao's continuous butterfly piercing, and he didn't take off easily when worshiping Buddha, but when Zhao Hao retreated, he had to jump out.

After all, I was frightened by Zhao Hao's shocking 302 three-pointers this season, so I have to guard against it!

beep!beep!
The referee blows the whistle!

Basketball into the net!

3+1!

"It's easy to do, it's perfect!" Jordan gave a very high evaluation.

Tony Allen's defense is already very good, but he still can't defend against Zhao Hao. Zhao Hao's current singles ability is also very similar to Kobe's touch.

You can't prevent it no matter what!
"How does it compare to you?" Pippen asked curiously.

In Batman's heart, Jordan's single-handed ability is the best in the world, and when he wants to score, it doesn't matter who comes.

"It's hard to say." Jordan thought for a while and said.

Pippen was taken aback!
"Even Kobe, whom you personally inherited and stole all your offensive skills, in your eyes, you were all 55 in heads-up. Why is it hard to say when you come to Zhao Hao?"

Jordan said with a sigh of relief: "Because he and I are not the same type of player at all!

My main attack areas are in the middle distance and the basket, and Kobe is the same!

But he is three points!

And Kobe and I both scored for the sake of scoring. We are also the team's first offensive finisher, but he is not! "

Before Pippen had time to ask why not, the court had changed dramatically.

When Zhao Hao singled out the Celtics' perimeter defensive leader Tony Allen to the point where he couldn't take care of himself, Rajon Rondo suddenly began to resolutely double-team Zhao Hao, and double-teamed Zhao Hao once halftime passed. folder!

At this time, Zhao Hao didn't choose to shoot again, but asked Yi Jianlian for a pick-and-roll under the double-team.

In other words, there are now a total of three Celtics players outside the three-point line, and the big baby Davis inside has also come out.

Zhao Hao used the pick-and-roll to suddenly accelerate to the basket, and Tianxiu made a layup with a one-handed ball.

This shot directly made Jordan and Pippen not calm, because Tianxiu's layup was Jordan's trick, a trick that even Kobe hadn't learned.

Zhao Hao's almost unsolvable offense also caused Coach Rivers to pace back and forth off the court. The lead that the Celtics had established was instantly wiped out by Zhao Hao alone.

"We can't let him play alone anymore, we have to force him to play!"

Rivers yelled to remind everyone on the field.

The best way to defend Zhao Hao is that the ball must never be in Zhao Hao's hands, and the ball must be passed out!
Zhao Hao faced a double-team, and the Celtics forced him not to dribble, but this is exactly what he wanted to see.

Zhao Haomiao made a pass to Yi Jianlian from the bottom corner, scored a three-pointer, and then passed back to Villanueva, who was outside the three-point line, and made another three-pointer!
Cole couldn't help but clenched his fists and shouted, "Beautiful!"

Zhao Hao almost perfectly comprehended the essence of his small-ball offensive tactics, which is to attract double-teams to give teammates perfect cutting space and shooting space outside the three-point line.

This is also the most classic pass and cut cooperation!
Pippen also finally knew the reason why Jordan said that Zhao Hao was completely different from him and Kobe.

"Zhao Hao is not a finisher at all, but a passer!

All of his offenses are to allow his teammates to get better shooting space and scoring opportunities! "

Jordan nodded in agreement and said: "So he is not a pure scorer, but a player who makes opponents more unpredictable."

This can't help but remind Jordan of the advice given to him by the Zen master Phil Jackson when he was young.

"You can only score a maximum of 30 points in a game! No more!"

The young Jordan was quite unconvinced: "If I don't score, why stay on the court?"

Zen master: "Go run! Go cut! Go defend! Go create scoring opportunities for your teammates!"

It wasn't until after the 6 championships that Jordan understood what Zen Master said at the time. Kobe, who started playing the triangle offense last season, also began to understand, but McGrady didn't understand.

The second quarter is over.

Zhao Hao scored 14 points and 5 assists in a single quarter, almost turning the game around by himself.

The Bucks also took the initiative again, 60:55!

"Who would have thought that the Bucks could lead the Celtics at halftime?" Kenny Smith said in admiration.

Zhao Hao's performance in this quarter also reminded him of the incomprehensible Zhao Hao who blocked the gods and Buddhas last season.

Groom also said: "We can't say that the Celtics are not playing well!

They almost showed all the performance they should have in the whole game. They even defended Yao Ming's offense, but the only thing they didn't do well was that they didn't expect Zhao Hao to play so crazy all of a sudden! "

Second half of the game.

In the 24 minutes of the half, Zhao Hao played for almost 20 minutes, and Coach Cole had to let him rest.

Now it's Yao Ming's turn to lead the team.

In the past, Yao Ming was always on the same level as Zhao Hao, and Zhao Hao almost led how to play on the court. Now it's time to test Yao Ming's leadership.

Zhao Hao and Yao Ming bumped their fists.

"Dayao, I'm exhausted, it's time for you to beat the Celtics, but remember to leave Perkins to me, I will avenge myself!"

Yao Ming nodded, but said bitterly, "Then I'll collect some interest from him first!"

Seeing Yao Ming play, Cole said with some concern: "Yao faced five Celtics double-teaming in the first half, and he didn't perform well."

"Coach, Dayao is stronger than you imagined!"

Zhao Hao interrupted the opponent and said: "A person who can lead the team forward is a leader, and a person who is willing to sacrifice himself for the team is also a leader!

Dayao chose to sacrifice himself in the Mosaic team for the comfort of McGrady. In the international arena, he can also lead the Chinese team to the final chapter of the battle against the European giants. In the last round, he can also carry the team's offensive banner. Destroying Howard, almost defeated the Magic alone.

Dayao, don't think that he is really easy to bully just because he is gentle and likes to read books! "
