Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Philadelphia.

In the training arena.

The 76ers players are training, and today's training theme is not "big and four small", but the regular lineup.

Group A is Nene, Speights, Xiaoka, Iguodala and Qin Hao.

Group B is Mozkov, Thaddeus-Young, Lu Wei, Sessions, Iverson.

This lineup comparison naturally gave Qin Hao an absolute advantage, but this was only an internal training match, mainly for training tactics. The intensity of the confrontation was not very high, and the outcome was not important.

"Coach." Assistant Harry frowned and said to Coach Luke: "Are we really not playing'big and four small'?"

"It's not that we don't play, but the regular lineup is the main thing." Coach Luke said: "Since the Bulls play the regular lineup, we also play the regular lineup. Of course, the game is constantly changing and needs to be adjusted according to the specific situation. When Playing the regular lineup, when to play the'big and four small' depends on the development of the game."

Assistant Harry nodded.

In fact, the reason why Coach Luke chose to deal with the regular lineup is because the previous game, that is, the fifth game, the Bulls was a regular lineup.

After losing consecutive games to the 76ers in the third and fourth games, the Bulls no longer insist on "one big and four small". They know that playing this lineup is not the opponent of the 76ers, even if it is due to injury in Butler's absence. Case.

So after returning to Chicago in Game 5, the Bulls gave up the "big and four small".

Coach Thibodeau also realized that the "big and four small" are not something he is good at, but the 76ers he learned. Once it is cracked by the opponent, it won't work anymore.

It's better to stick to what you are good at than that, so in Game 5, the Bulls used the regular lineup throughout the game, but the results were surprisingly good.

"I thought I could win the fifth game..."

Thinking of Game 5, Coach Luke felt a bit pity.

Game 5 is a battle of life and death for the Bulls. Once they lose, they will be over. If the 76ers win, they will be able to advance to the finals.

So in Game 5, the Bulls struggled very hard. Every player played to the extreme, because they had no retreat and could only fight their backs.

Among several starters, Rose broke out completely, scored 39 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. He was unstoppable, shot from outside, broke through the frame, and kept scoring points.

Rolle Deng played mediocre, with only 11 points, but Noah and Boozer performed very well in the paint. Noah scored 19 points, Boozer scored 16 points and 11 rebounds.

In addition, Green and Miles, Robinson, these substitute players also played very well.

After the Bulls' full-fledged team broke out, the 76ers eventually lost to the Bulls 107:116, and the series score was rewritten to 2:3.

"It's the Bulls." Coach Luke shook his head, clearing up his thoughts.

Although it’s a pity that he didn’t win the fifth game, it’s not a surprise. After all, the Bulls are very strong, and there is still a Butler missing on their side. When they reach the edge of the cliff, the Bulls will definitely break out of unprecedented combat power. It's home game again, and it's not surprising to win the fifth game.

But next is the sixth game, which will be played at the 76ers' home court tomorrow. For the 76ers, this is the best opportunity.

If the sixth game cannot be won and the series is dragged into a tie-break, then the variables will be too great.

"We must win the sixth game." Coach Luke muttered, looked at the time, clapped his hands to stop, "Okay, I will train here today, go back and have a good rest, tomorrow will be a tough battle."

"Yeah." Everyone replied, all expressions serious.

Tomorrow is a crucial battle.

Everyone left one after another, Qin Hao and Xiao Ka stayed, but Qin Hao only trained, Xiao Ka did not train, just watched.

It’s not that Ka is not diligent, it’s just that Ka has always been a defensive vanguard. After Butler was injured, his task has become heavier. Every game consumes a lot of physical energy, and he does not have the ability to recover as quickly as Qin Hao. Must retain physical fitness to cope with tomorrow's game.

Qin Hao didn't increase his training as usual, and his intensity decreased a lot.

"Huh!"

With a soft sound, Qin Hao dribbled a step after receiving the pass, changed direction and accelerated, and then stopped abruptly and hit a jumper.

He stayed and practiced mid-range jumpers.

Although knowing that it is unlikely to get a transformation, after all, the three-pointer has not changed for long. According to past experience, the mid-range shooting and breakthrough ability will not change so quickly, and there is no such thing as the three-pointer ability before the transformation. Wonderful feeling.

But Qin Hao still wanted to practice more, to improve a little.

"ball."

Qin Hao opened his hand and Barry passed the ball over. After he received the ball, he made a flicker, then accelerated the breakthrough, dribbled two steps to the left, then stopped and made a backward jumper.

Huh!

Hollow hit.

After that, it is cyclical, changing various movements, or lean back, or stop jumper, or make a three-threat and then directly dry pull, or change to a turn-over jumper after a breakthrough...

He shot again and again, hitting again and again, only to hear the "swish" sound constantly.

In fact, for a three-point shooter like Qin Hao, mid-range shooting will be easier.

It's just that the old saying "the closer you are to the basket, the easier it is to score" is actually only half of the saying, and the other half is "the closer you are to the basket, the more intense the confrontation", the greater the defensive pressure and interference you face.

So it's not that you are good at three-pointers, the mid-range will be better than three-pointers.

There are even some people who shoot three-pointers better than mid-range. In the game, they will choose to shoot three-pointers more than mid-range, such as JJ Redick and Kyle Korver.

"Huh!"

With another soft sound, Qin Hao stopped. It has been half an hour, and I will be training here today.

Thinking that tomorrow is the sixth game of the series, Qin Hao squinted his eyes, his eyes burst with a sharp light, and he also said the same words as Coach Luke: "We must win the sixth game."

......

The next day, Wachovia Center Arena.

What this game means today is self-evident, this series is dragged into the tie-breaker, or ends there, the 76ers advance, it depends on this game.

Therefore, this game received a high degree of attention, and the attendance rate in the audience was also very high, almost full. More than 20,000 fans came to watch the game.

There are naturally many celebrities among them.

One of them was particularly eye-catching, causing screams around him. Many fans looked over here, his face full of excitement and excitement.

"I didn't expect Jordan to come too."

"He was on the Bulls' home court in the fifth game. Today's game is extremely critical. It is not surprising that he is here."

Sitting near the court is a tall man with a smile on his face, unhurried, and he is the "God of Basketball", Michael Jordan!
