NBA Backer King Chapter 208

   Chapter 208 Big Dream, we will never double-team you, because it's not worth it

  2:4, the sun attacked.

  Barkley still emptied Green for two steps and guarded the waist in the paint area on the right wing.

  Kevin Johnson made a stance of passing the ball to Wang Tiejun, but suddenly passed the ball to Green on the right wing.

  Barkley reacted quickly and returned to defense quickly, but he was still a little behind. When he took a step forward, Green had already jumped up. He took off again and blocked the shot. The ball flew over his palm.

"brush!"

   Water splashed, and Iron Man Green hit a two-pointer.

   On the ESPN live broadcast, the commentator Luo Lin analyzed: "AC Green's shot speed is not slow, Barkley can't put too much, or he will be shot to death by him."

   Oldman said with a smile: "Green is not a meat shield type and a clumsy insider. He is only 100 kilograms, and his movements are very brisk and his shots are very fast."

  4 level, Mosaic attack.

   Next, Da Meng missed a nearly two-point jumper under Wang Tiejun's single defense, the backcourt rebound was won by Wang Tiejun, and the Suns attacked.

  Green made a shot just now. This time, Barkley didn't dare to let him short so much.

   In this position, he can get back to the basket in time, but it is very difficult to help defend the low post on the left wing.

  The left wing was low, Wang Tiejun asked for the ball, and as soon as the ball was passed, while it was still flying in the sky, the small forward Mario Elie of the Mosaic team quickly came down to help defend.

   On the left-wing three-point line, Horry opened his hand and was ready to catch the ball.

But Wang Tiejun didn't give it. Horry was the same year that he entered the league in the same year. Although he became the starting small forward of the Mosaic team in his rookie season, he played a few regular season games with the Mosaic team and still knew a little about Horry. , This guy's shooting percentage is average, not a very accurate shooter, he wants to do it himself.

   "Boom!"

   At the moment Mario Elie jumped on his body, an iron mountain came under him, and with a huge reaction force, Eli, who was 95 kg, turned over in response.

   In the next instant, he quickly turned around and made a bottom-slip action.

  Da Meng reacted very quickly, quickly retreated, and was ready to retreat continuously.

He has studied the last game the Suns played against the Spurs. The old K was in the process of slipping the bottom, and suddenly he hit the bottom. Very suddenly, he knocked over David Robinson several times. He can't repeat the mistakes of the Admiral. .

   At this moment, Wang Tiejun took a bear step.

   Almost in the next instant, I had a big dream mentally prepared, and retreated again.

   "Retreat?"

   The next moment, Wang Tiejun who reacted immediately jumped up and hit a frontal hook.

The    bear step is the advantage. Walking on the ground, the traditional martial arts footwork keeps his lower limbs in a state of high-frequency vibration at any time, allowing him to take off in the shortest time.

   "Damn!"

  Da Meng cursed in his heart, the ball slid over his head, and he had no time to take off after retreating.

"brush!"

  Behind him, a pure white splash appeared in the basket.

Old Wang laughed. The signature technique that he spent 2,000 points integrated into the hook is not so easy to defend. With the cooperation of the reliable and movable bear step, it can be shot in a variety of situations. It is not reluctant at all. .

  An anticipatory defense like Da Meng, once he reacts and seizes the opportunity to make a shot, there is no time to return to the defense. Whether he hits or misses depends on his own feel, and has nothing to do with the opponent's defense.

   "Hey, No. 17, are you okay?"

   turned around to defend and almost stepped on Mario Eli who was on the floor, he immediately asked with concern.

  Eli, who was holding his chest, was pale, coughing while holding his breath, and pain came from his right chest, with the pain of a broken bone.

   "Shet!"

  Dameng came up to take a look, guessing that Eli's rib was broken, gave Wang Tiejun a fierce look, and then made a substitution gesture to the bench.

   "With the strength of the Iron Army, coupled with the reaction force of Elie himself, it is reasonable to be knocked off the bone."

   Seeing Mario Eli walking directly to the player tunnel, Zhang rationally analyzed.

   On the sidelines, Rudy Tomjanovich gritted his teeth, beckoned to the bench, and called out his prepared meat shield.

Eric Riley, the No. 19 rookie in the second round just selected by the Mavericks this year, 213 cm, 111 kilograms at the time of the draft, the Mavericks did not want to give the contract, the management of the Mosaic team used $200,000 to sign the rights from the Mavericks Bought it and gave a non-guaranteed contract.

After signing the contract, his assistant coach Carol Dawson gave Eric Riley a task to increase his weight to 130 kg in the offseason. Riley accepted and completed this task in order to stay with the Mosaic team. , he became the meat shield of this team.

The Mosaic team not only prepared a meat shield, but also a second one, this year's rookie, who was selected by their own second-round pick, a European, Richard Petruska, 208 cm, and the tonnage at the time of the draft was 118kg, now 125kg.

  Eric Clary took a deep breath and stood up from the bench.

"Eric, you only have one task, use your tonnage to withstand the old K, don't let him get close to the basket easily. He wants to shoot outside, don't foul easily, let him shoot." Tomjanovich urged .

   "I understand, sir." He nodded heavily.

  The game continued, Mosaic attacked.

"Two-tower tactics? Mosaic sent their rookie, No. 42 Eric Clary, and Barkley played the three position. Now the Mosaic team's offense has weakened, but the defense should be strengthened." ESPN commentator Above, Rollin analyzed.

   "Old K has kept up with No. 42, so he shouldn't need to guard, AC Green guards Dameng, can't guard, Horry guards Barkley, and can't guard, the Suns are in trouble!" Oldman shook his head and shouted.

  Wang Tiejun had to keep up with No. 42. When he saw No. 42's huge physique, he knew that AC Green, who was only 100kg, couldn't defend.

   He was completely unfamiliar with this No. 42. He only knew that this was the rookie of the year, so he directly guarded the basket and let No. 42 empty to see how his shooting ability was.

   Generally, a center with such a large physique will not feel good when shooting.

  Dameng caught the ball on the right wing and singled against Green. After a few shakes, Green lost his center of gravity. He turned around and hit a shot before Wang Tiejun came up.

Zhang Lili immediately analyzed: "The Suns must make adjustments immediately. Whether it is Green or Horry, it is impossible to guard against Big Dream and Barkley. These two positions will be destroyed. The iron army's defense is still not good, help Not them."

  Suqun shouted: "Now look at how the Suns attack, the Mosaic team replaces such a big center, how will they defend against Lao K?"

  6 draws, the Suns attack.

  Wang Tiejun asked for the ball in the low post on the left wing. Barkley was one step away from him, and Horry on the outside three-point line was also one step away. When the ball flew down, the latter did not come down for the first time to help defend.

  If he chooses to score the ball to Horry, Barkley can immediately return to guard Horry, and the opportunity for small openings will disappear immediately.

   There was no good chance to score the ball, Wang Tiejun began to rely on Eric Clary.

"Snapped!"

During the dribble, under a collision, he only felt that his shoulders and back slipped to the side, and the thick fat on the opponent's chest instantly removed part of the power of the attack, and the sound of the impact was wrong, like a slap in the face. There's none of that heavy muscle pounding.

  Eric Clary's upper body only leaned back slightly, and only his front foot stepped back a small step, and his back foot did not move.

   "Nima's, this is the meat shield?"

   He was stunned for a moment, and was just about to make another slap, when someone suddenly jumped to his side and broke his ball.

   But it turned out to be Barkley, who was one step away from the top. Taking advantage of his dribbling and hitting, he decisively implemented a double-team.

  The Mosaic team counterattacked, Da Meng made a fast break, received a pass from Barkley, and dunked the ball.

   Wang Tiejun's speed has increased a little now, but he is still not as good as a super center like Da Meng, and there is no way to get back to the basket in time.

"Barkley is too familiar with the Tiejun, and his ability to assist in defense is also very good. Now it's better to have a timeout. You can't fight on both ends of the offense and defense. You can't delay. The longer you delay, the greater the loss. There are two other superstars who may double-team him at any time, and he is only a sophomore, so the coaching staff should give him timely guidance." Zhang Lili suggested on the commentary stand.

Although the Suns head coach Westphal won the honor of the best coach, it does not mean that his coaching level is really that high. His reaction speed is not very good, which is the kind of hindsight. So no timeout was called and the game continued.

   In the next time, Wang Tiejun had to find a way to deal with Eric Clary's meat shield.

   He didn't have to think of a way on the defensive end. Barkley and Da Meng dominated Mosaic's offense, and Eric Clary had no chance to catch the ball at all.

   On his offensive end, he was a little unsuited to the big meat shield. There was only one such player last season, and that was Shaquille O'Neal.

When he played Shaquille O'Neal for the second time last season, the big shark should not have such a large tonnage, but it was not much different. There was also a layer of fat on his chest. He thought he could still deal with this guy. After all, the big shark was at that time. He was also knocked over.

   Although the tonnage of this No. 42 is similar to that of O'Neal, its strength and quality should not be comparable to that of the big sewer. It is just a dream to stop it just by the tonnage.

   He didn't do his best when he was playing just now. It was just one attempt, but he didn't expect to be stole the ball by the hateful Barkley.

But it also reminded him that, unlike playing Shaquille O'Neal, the Magic didn't double-team him at that time, it was a one-on-one one-on-one match. Now there is a Barkley with a very strong defense, and there is a big dream staring at him on the weak side. He has to be careful.

  Two minutes later, he again took the ball low on the left wing.

When the ball came down, Barkley was still the same. He let Horry take one step, and he was only one step away. They were only a little over a meter. Both sides were able to take into account, and he was very experienced in defense.

"Snapped!"

   grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand and held it high, but he did not attack immediately.

   At this time, Barkley did not pounce, but stared down. As long as Wang Tiejun gave Horry the ball, he would immediately return to the defense. As long as Wang Tiejun dared to dribble and hit, he would immediately pounce and double-team.

Weak side, right wing, Da Meng stayed one step at the right waist of the paint area, and also put Green a step, keeping the opportunity to return to the basket. If Wang Tiejun smashed Eric Klei and scored the basket, he would You can get back in place in time.

   He is very clear that old K is now capable of breaking through Eric, because Riley, who has gained weight to 130 kg, is already very slow, even slower than old K.

On the sidelines, Tomjanovich nodded again and again. That's how he defended. He used a meat shield to hold old K. No matter what choice he made, as long as he held it for even half a second, players in other positions could make timely actions. Remedy.

   At the same time, using a meat shield to liberate the big dream, the team's offensive and defensive energy will be completely released, especially the low-position weak side's assisting defense ability will be extremely powerful.

   "Squeak!"

   Sure enough, Wang Tiejun, as expected by the Marseille team, began to turn around and slip.

   At this moment, Barkley and Da Meng rushed down at the same time.

  Eric Riley took up a lot of space, not smaller than him at all. It took him two small steps to complete the turn, and his speed did not rise. At the same time, he was pulled by an arm.

   At this time, there was Eric Clary on the right. Da Meng had already defended to the basket and was rushing over. The sound of Barkley's shoes rubbing at the back had already sounded behind him.

   He could only shoot immediately, and in order not to be influenced by Eric Clary, he used his unfamiliar left hand to hit a frontal hook.

   At the moment he took off, Eric Lay squeezed with his body and lost his center of gravity. He barely jumped, not even a foot tall, and his body was crooked in the air.

"Snapped!"

  Barkley popped up from behind and capped the ball he hadn't had time to shoot.

  Dameng, who had already rushed over to prepare for a double-team, grabbed the ball. Mosaic teamed up and completed a very successful defense.

"pretty!"

  Tomjanovich nodded heavily, affirming the defense.

   "It should be called a time-out. The two superstars and a human shield joined forces to deal with the old K. He is still a second grader, how can he have experience?" Su Qun shouted.

   Zhang Lili nodded immediately and said, "The key is that these two superstars are still top-level defense, with super strong defense capabilities.

  Wang Tiejun had never been double-teamed when he played Dameng before, and it was the same with O'Neal. He had no experience in this area.

   They had a very good chance of choosing to double-team. Just when Wang Tiejun started to turn around and slip, it was no longer possible to pass the ball, and there was no way to use the big space left by their double-team, so you can safely go to double-team.

   Just now, even if Wang Tiejun forcibly attacked and faced the defense of Dameng head-on, there should be no chance. "

In the ESPN live broadcast booth, Luo Lin said in surprise: "Barkley helped defend the double team, Da Meng also went up to make up the double team, and with the meat shield Riley, the Mosaic team's double team force against the old K was too strong, right? "

   Oldman was also shocked and said: "Two superstars with top defense + meat shield, can it be said to be the strongest double team in history?"

   The surprised look on Luo Lin's face did not disappear, he thought for a moment and then said: "From the level of the defender, it can be said that he is the strongest double team in history.

  Superstars generally disdain to double-team others, but now two superstars are going up to assist in defense and defense, Mosaic team attaches so much importance to old K? "

Oldman shook his head and said: "I can be sure that the current ability of the old K is unable to cope with this situation. Let alone the big dream + Barkley, even if they take turns to help the defense and add a meat shield to contain them, the old K will not be able to. way to deal with it.”

  Rollin nodded and said, "This is indeed beyond the ability of old K. Don't mention him, they are not enough for Chamberlain or any super center."

   Oldman said with a smile: "You let Da Meng and a meat shield guard against another Da Meng, what effect do you see? The same way to prevent him."

  The Suns attacked and called a timeout.

   However, the suspension did not solve the problem. Head coach Westphal couldn't come up with any good way to help Wang Tiejun get rid of Mosaic's encirclement and suppression of him, but just let him strengthen his response to the ball.

   But Barkley and Da Meng chose to double-team at a very good timing, and the teammates' vacancies were all those small vacancies, which were of no use at all.

   Next, he passed the ball twice, once to Horry. Horry made a strong shot on Barkley's head and was blocked directly. Once to Green on the weak side, he was interrupted by Da Meng, which is his mistake.

   He played hard and hit the basket after knocking over the meat shield for the first time.

   Another time, he got a little space for the shot by hitting Riley with the meat shield, but when he made a sideways hook for nearly two points, he was capped by Barkley who was down and double-teamed.

   He played the entire first quarter, ate two caps in a single quarter, was interrupted twice, made 3 of 9 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers and 1 foul.

  The Mosaic team sent six big caps and three steals in the whole quarter. At 15:30, the Suns fell behind by a large score.

   In the ESPN live broadcast booth, the commentator Luo Lin shook his head and said: "Mosaic coach Tomjanovich performed very well and played very targeted defensive tactics.

   However, the Suns coach Westphal did not show the qualities of a best coach. He sat and watched Old K encounter difficulties and could not come up with a good solution.

   How important is the head coach to a team, we all know that when the Suns lineup is not as good as the Mosaic team, it is also far behind in this respect, which is worthy of consideration by the Suns management team. "

Oldman said with a smile: "In just one quarter, the super interior team composed of the two superstars of the Mosaic team showed a strong offensive and defensive ability. Their true strength is revealed.

  Yes, what I want to say is that the old K can't support the Suns at all. The Suns, taking him as the core and giving up Barkley, has already ruined the defending team. If the Suns keep their roster from last season, they have a good chance of defending their title. "

  Rollin shook his head to express a different point of view, he said: "Carter, I think even if the Suns maintain the original lineup, it will be difficult to beat the reinforced Bulls.

  Let's put it this way, no championship team can complete the title defense without strengthening and declining in strength. "

   "How do you think the Suns are now compared to last season?" Oldman asked with a smile.

   "Of course it has fallen a lot, but AC Green can't make up for Barkley's loss, it's a lot worse." Rollin laughed.

   nodded, Oldman said: "The Suns chose to train Old K. His performance in the first four games was really good, he continued his performance in the finals, and even showed a strong ability to respond to the ball.

   But in this quarter of the game, he still showed the weakness of inexperience and lack of offensive skills. He really can't support the Suns now. "

"So the Suns chose to train him. If he can deal with all the difficult situations now, is there any need to train him? If they keep Barkley, the chances of winning the championship are not very big, and at the same time they can't train the full-strength old K, so Keke Mr. Langelo's thinking is not wrong, I even think he is very courageous." Rollin laughed.

  Oldman was startled, laughed and nodded, agreeing with his partner's words.

Luo Lin added: "What's more, two superstars with the top defense just took turns to help defense, plus a meat shield, if old K can solve them like this, then he will be the super center that surpasses the big dream. Super center, don't you think it's normal for the Suns to give up Barkley for him?"

  Oldman couldn't help but nodded again and said with a smile: "So, the defeat of old K today is indeed a matter of course, the opponent is too strong."

   In this game, the Mosaic team won a big victory in the end, 83:116, won 33 points, a real wild victory.

  Barkley and Big Dream didn't hold back at all. Together, they scored 54 points, 32 rebounds, 9 assists, 5 steals and 9 blocks, completely blowing up the Suns' inside line on both offense and defense.

   Under the defense of Da Meng, Green made only 4 of 15 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, only 9 points and 6 rebounds, and made 4 turnovers.

  Wang Tiejun played 31 minutes in the first three quarters and did not play in the final quarter. He made 6 of 15 shots, 40% from the field, 5 of 9 penalties, and scored 17 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks, 5 turnovers and 5 fouls.

  15 shots, only 4 of them were basket shots, and he was rewarded with a big cap by the big dream. He missed one throw and only hit two goals.

   The other shots were all nearly two points. Under the double-team of the meat shield Riley and Barkley, the shots were rushed, only 4 of 11 shots, and the hit rate was very low.

Today was his most hated game. The audience ate a total of five hats from the two superstars. If he hadn't paid more attention later, he might have eaten more hats. Most of the hats from Big Dream and Barkley were given to him. took him.

His Iron Mountain had to hit Eric Riley with all his strength, and he had to have a certain amount of power to knock over the meat shield. This meat shield really caused him trouble. Once Riley suddenly retreated. Sora, also made him a walk.

   This meat shield and Barkley's double-teaming against him severely limited his performance, seriously affected his performance, and made him quite depressed.

When Barkley rushed over to double-team, he also used punches to deal with it, but this fat man was also full of fat. When he hit it, the unloading force was very large, and the impact was not real. He had tonnage and strength, and his reaction was fast. His defensive skills are good, and his experience is incomparably rich. It's too different for him. He won't be easily hit by him.

   This game woke him up and let him know what kind of impact a pair of super interior players + a meat shield could have on him. Right now, he really doesn't have the ability to deal with this situation.

  Actually, let alone him, even if it were Zhang Twenty Wan, the ancient god, he wouldn't be able to deal with such a double team. Today, he can have a 40% hit rate, which is not a bad performance.

   "Boy, are you convinced?"

   At the end of the game, the big dream of winning was very excited, and the trash talk came at him again.

   "Soft Egg Dream, you will still beat me, because we will never double-team you, it's not worth it." He spouted back immediately.

   "Stinky boy!"

  Dameng's face turned pale with anger, but he had nothing to say. The Suns just never double-teamed him, and Mosaic's double-team against Old K was already the strongest in history.

   "Old K, do you want a late night snack? I'll ask." Buckley came over.

   "Next time, come back to Phoenix, please." He shook his head.
