NBA: I rely on recklessness to play basketball

"Matt, you're on!"

Matt Bonner, who is now an absolute fringe player on the team, hesitated for a moment and quickly got up from the bench.

Popovich pulled Bonner, who was ready to step onto the court, to his side and whispered a few words.

Bonner is used to it.

At such a time, there must be special arrangements for changing yourself to play.

As an NBA player, Matt Bonner, regardless of personal data or performance on the court, can only be described in two words - mediocre.

Even with the San Antonio Spurs, he can barely count as a role rotation player on the team.

But under Popovich, Matt Bonner has received many great players who have never won honors, and is even nicknamed the "Red Mamba" by some fans.

Because of his age, his form has declined, and under normal circumstances, Matt Bonner's playing time is mostly in garbage time, or when the team needs someone to replace him.

Seeing Popovich's hand, Xiao Shen could probably guess what he was planning.

This old man is very bad.

All kinds of dirty routines, play brilliantly.

Bruce Bowen, who was hated by the players, shined under Popovich.

The most classic was the 2006-2007 Western Conference semifinals.

D'Antoni worked hard to build, and the Phoenix Suns, whose shelling tactics were gradually reinvigorating, ran into the San Antonio Spurs.

Nash, who was still in his prime, was pushed to the technical table by Horry when he was only 24 seconds away from the game in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinals.

Although from the expression, Horry seemed to have made an unintentional move, but this goal almost changed the situation in that round of the series.

No surprises.

The bad old man replaced Matt Bonner, and he must have come to Xiao Shen.

The game continues.

Popovich is in the formation, there is really something.

Matt Bonner came up to attack in the first round, and after blocking, he bounced to the left 45-degree angle, and immediately had an open chance.

People to the ball to.

Receiving a pass from Parker, Matt Bonner received a three-point shot and scored steadily.

As a man who crisscrosses the exam room and the court, Matt Bonner really has two brushes.

This ball Xiao Shen did not prevent out.

He can really get in.

Not a big problem.

The basket gives him reckless back.

The Dallas Mavericks' offense.

Xiao Shen saw Matt Bonner following him, signaled his teammates to all pull away, fell to Xiao Shen under the basket, stuck in position, just received the ball, and was preparing to attack Xiao Shen.

but was hugged by Matt Bonner behind him.

"Foul!"

Matt Bonner took the initiative to raise his hand and fouled himself early.

Really.

Seeing this scene, the three commentators in the live broadcast room of TNT TV instantly boiled.

"Hahaha, I guessed that Greg is going to do something, and our familiar shark cutting tactics are reproduced!"

Barkley smiled a little tightly: "Look at how Xiao copes, Spurs' shark cutting tactics, interesting."

"I deliberately look at the previous game record, Xiao's free throw hand today, extremely bad, currently 1 of 4, only a measly 25%. No wonder Greg, who was so decisive, adopted the shark cutting tactic in the first half. Kenny

Smith analyzed a little wave.

"Nope."

O'Neill said with a bitter face: "This old man is even crazier than you think, I was cut by him at the beginning, it's hateful, just think about it."

"When encountering shark chopping tactics, it mainly depends on Xiao's free throws and whether they can be stabilized." As long as two goals are scored in a row, the shark hacking tactic makes no sense. Hitting a free throw, and then preventing their attack, the Spurs' shark-cutting tactic, is also considered a failure.

"What if I don't get in with both penalties?"

Barkley's sentence ends the topic.

On the field.

Xiao Shen walked to the free throw line, and the home fans immediately put pressure.

Breathe deeply.

Adjust it.

Xiao Shen, who desperately wanted to send the ball in, knew that it was not good the moment the ball was shot.

"Bang!"

Xiao Shen hit the free throw angrily.

Popovich, who looked grim on the sidelines, finally showed a smile, and the shark cutting tactic was half successful.

The reason why shark cutting tactics can work wonders, especially when it comes to players who do not make good free throws, the effect is even more significant.

The main reason is:

It's a mental game.

Or the slashed player himself and his own game.

Especially if the first penalty is missed, the pressure of the second penalty is doubled.

The more you can't punish, the more you want to punish.

The more you want to punish in, the more you can't punish.

Ultimately.

Stuck in an infinite loop.

Xiao Shen made adjustments on the second free throw, and despite his extreme efforts, the ball bounced on the basket a few times and finally rolled down.

The second penalty is still not scored!

Damn it.

Popovich smiled even more on the sidelines.

"Evil free throw!"

In the live broadcast room of TNT TV, O'Neill couldn't help but complain, and Xiao Shen also wanted to do so.

Two missed free throws.

Xiao Shen clapped his hands in annoyance and silently retreated to the backfield defense.

San Antonio Spurs' offense, playing extremely patient, continuous blocking and dismantling cooperation, open cut running, Tony Parker took advantage of the gap where Xiao Shen was pulled out, killed into the box, and the top turned for a layup.

Score.

The San Antonio Spurs chased five straight points.

The shark chopping tactic is effective.

Then it was the turn of the Dallas Mavericks to attack.

Have the experience of the last round.

Delon Williams is in no hurry to organize the offense and wants to wait for the Spurs to start first.

Matt Bonner hung an extremely sunny smile, followed Xiao Shen, with a silly smile, extremely innocent, as if he didn't mean to cut.

Xiao Shen just fell to the basket, and when the card position asked for the ball, he pounced again.

Hugged Xiao Shen.

I really want to backhand.

This feeling is uncomfortable.

Shark cutting tactics.

In addition to testing the psychological quality of players who are not good at free throws, it can also destroy the overall offensive rhythm of the opponent, especially after the opponent cuts you a few times, you don't know whether to cut or not.

It's like this ball.

Delong Williams thought they would not cut Xiao Shen this time.

The ball just came in.

Matt Bonner immediately fouled.

The Dallas Mavericks' offensive rhythm was interrupted.

Xiao Shen once again walked to the free throw line.

Don't panic.

Steady your mind.

Adjust the rhythm, Xiao Shen made a steady shot with the first penalty.

Hit.

And then again.

Xiao Shen, who was full of confidence, wanted to continue his efforts, but it backfired.

Xiao Shen made the second penalty and smashed it on the neck of the basket and flew away.

Aldridge took the rebound steadily.

Two penalties and one hit.

It's a loss.

San Antonio Spurs offense.

Some Xiao Shen at the top was a little irritated by his patient attack, and he failed to block several times.

Danny Green seized the opportunity and hit a solid three-pointer.

The San Antonio Spurs took the opportunity to play an 8-1 offensive mini-climax to take advantage of the score.

Coach Rick Carlisle was forced to request a timeout.

However.

Pause back.

As soon as the Dallas Mavericks sent out the touchline ball, Matt Bonner grabbed Xiao Shen and took the initiative to signal himself to foul early.

Xiao Shen couldn't wait to put him on the ground and rub him wildly.

Xiao Shen walked to the free throw line again.

Matt Bonner, who had successfully retired, was replaced.

Xiao Shen made the first free throw.

Critical second penalty.

It actually slipped out of the basket again.

Evil free throws.

Xiao Shen can't wait to dunk free throws into the basket like O'Neal.

Damn it.

Popovich forced me.
