NBA Backer King Chapter 585

Chapter 585 The Derby Battle with Dayao

27, match day.

That evening, the Westside Arena was crowded and crowded, and at least a quarter of them were Chinese.

In recent years, the number of Chinese in Phoenix has reached 60,000. The city government has always adhered to the policy of attracting Chinese, and the effect is still there.

The media advertised this game as a derby between China and China. Pharaoh and Dayao were the leaders of the Suns and the Nets, and they were in the same position, so they received a lot of attention. Chinese people from Phoenix and nearby cities rushed to the scene. .

Before six o'clock, Zhang Lili and Su Qun brought the photography team to the Westside Arena.

Seeing such a hot market, Lao Zhang said with emotion: "After Tie Jun left the Suns, the Suns ate the championship bonus for about three years, and then their record declined seriously, and they couldn't make the playoffs. When it's rare to see a full house, a drop in tickets can't save the market, and now the market is finally back.”

"Director Zhang, Su Qun."

When went in, some Chinese reporters who saw Lao Zhang and others came up to say hello.

There are a lot of domestic reporters in the United States who cover the NBA. One group follows Dayao and the other group follows Lao Wang. There are dozens of them.

At 7:30, the two sides announced the starting list.

Nets: Yao Min, Aaron Williams, Richard Jefferson, Corey Kidles, Kidd

Sun: Wang Tiejun, Amare Stoudemire, Marion, Anfernee Hardaway, Nash

The game is broadcasted live by TNT in the United States. This season, the Suns have purchased the most live broadcasts in the United States, with a total of 32 games, TNT accounted for 20 games, and several other broadcasters added up to 12 games.

Barkley analyzed: "The Nets have lost Keane Van Hoyn, and their strength has declined compared to last season, but the Chad Jefferson they got from Mosaic has grown up and has a certain benefit to their strength, so this season The strength of the East is still at the forefront.

Comparing the Nets and the Suns, even though Yao's strength is very strong, there is no good power forward. I think the strength of the Nets inside line combination is definitely not as good as the Suns.

On the outside, Hardaway's injury is still a problem. He can only provide 8 points per game, but Marion and Nash can both provide 15+ points, and the scoring ability of these two people can still be exploited. "

Kenny Smith said: "Marion almost hit 20+10 last season, so far, he is 18 points+9, and his strength has declined.

His stats dropped, of course, because of the old K, which led to a little less shots, but with the old K in the low post, Marion's efficiency improved a bit. "

Barkley went on to say: "In comparison, the Suns on the outside are actually not weaker than the Nets on offense. The only problem is the No. 1 position. Can Kidd's control of Nash destroy the Suns' offense."

Kenny Smith said: "The Suns' current offensive system is still based on positional warfare. If you can hit the fast break, you can play it. If you can't play, you can immediately switch to positional warfare. Although Kidd's defense is at the top level, he can't guard Nash. Can't pass for Old K."

Barkley nodded and said: "So I think that once they encounter a strong defensive point guard opponent, or a strong defensive team, the Suns better focus on positional warfare, Nash can be turned into a pitcher, he and Marion, Hardaway can shoot threes, and he should be the most accurate one."

Domestic, because it was Saturday, countless fans sat in front of the TV, and the sports center on Fengshen Street was still crowded with people.

At eight o'clock, the game starts.

Wang Tiejun and Dayao jumped the ball. When the ball was thrown, Dayao responded to the story and didn't jump much at all. He knew he couldn't jump.

"The Suns attacked, Old K got into the basket, Dayao hurry up!" Su Qun looked excited and shouted loudly as soon as the game started.

Seeing Pharaoh running towards the basket, Dayao quickly followed.

His weight is controlled at 130 kg. Like Pharaoh, his lower limbs are thick and powerful. Since he participated in the Iron Army training camp at the age of 15, the training plan formulated by Pharaoh has always focused on the training of moving speed, especially lateral movement. In addition, his pace is very large, so the speed is actually good. When the offense and defense are transferred, as long as you have sufficient physical strength, you can make a fast break.

After followed and entered the basket, he adopted a round-forward approach, leaning on Pharaoh with his back, and stretched his arms backward, blocking the possibility of Pharaoh bypassing him to catch the ball.

Lao Wang immediately exerted his force to push forward, causing Dayao's upper body to bend forward, and his feet loosened.

However, Dayao's bottom plate was very stable. Although his upper body was swaying, he was barely able to stand under his feet. After several confrontations, although he finally pushed Dayao away, he did not attack for three seconds. Now, you can only leave the paint area first.

Dayao followed, the penalty area was empty, Nash tried to break through, but was blocked by Kidd, the breakthrough failed, and he quickly transferred the ball to Marion.

Marion's offensive ability with the ball is not good. He gets the ball and passes it on. The left wing is low, Pharaoh catches the ball, singles Dayao, misses a hook, and the nets attack.

Zhang Lili said: "Dayao can be said to be trained by Tie Jun. Although his upper body strength is not very strong, his lower body is very stable. Look at his two legs, especially his thighs, which are too thick!

Tie Jun's idea was that he didn't want Dayao to maintain a large tonnage. The large tonnage had a great negative effect on the joints and feet of the lower limbs, but the light tonnage could not stand at a low position, so he strengthened Dayao's lower body strength training.

As you can see, in Dayao's knees, the small muscle groups are particularly developed, specially exercised, which can have a strong protective effect on the knee joint. "

Su Qun nodded and said: "There are very few centers who can make Dayao unstoppable in the confrontation, that is, Old K and O'Neal have some advantages, even if Duncan and Garnett are against Dayao, their strength and quality It's stronger, but the tonnage is smaller, so don't try to push Dayao."

On the TNT commentary stand, Barkley said: "The Suns' first offense failed. Facing Kidd's defense, Nash was limited to a certain extent and could not break through as he wanted, so the Suns should pay attention to this situation. Because once in the playoffs, Nash will only be more heavily guarded."

"So in the playoffs, the Suns should still focus on half-court battles and defensive counterattacks on the fast break," said Kenny Smith.

At this time, the Nets arrived in the frontcourt and played a traditional positional battle with the center at the core. Dayao went down to the low post on the left wing and wanted the ball.

I tried it just now. This time, Pharaoh didn't make a strong confrontation, but put a step in defense.

The game with the Nets is not very important, just feel the other side's foundation, there is no need to consume each other with Dayao, unless they join forces in the finals.

Dayao Li got up on the ground, stuck his left elbow in place, and hit a sideways hook. Pharaoh went up to block the block, and the ball passed his palm and swiped down the basket with precision.

"Beautiful! Dayao's hooks are pretty good, and he followed Old K to learn his hooks. When he entered the league in 2000, his hooks already reached the top level." Su Qun introduced.

Sun attack.

D'Antoni shouted from the sideline and asked Stoudemire to come out and do a pick-and-roll with Nash.

In the first place, Nash can get rid of Kidd's defense and give full play to his breakthrough ability. With Old K in the low post, the sudden point tactics will be very strong, just like the sudden point tactics of O'Neal and Jordan back then, which is very threatening.

Second, Stoudemire's ability to move down is very strong, and the effect of playing pick-and-roll with Nash in the team's training game is very good. The impact of the basket is powerful.

Sure enough, after using the wall to get rid of Kidd, Nash changed direction to bypass Aaron Williams, who was on the switch, and rushed into the paint area, forcing Dayao to return to the basket. At this time, Nash threw the ball behind Dayao. Yao knew it was bad.

"boom!"

When Pharaoh saw Nash throw the ball, he immediately jumped up, caught the ball in the air, and made a dunk directly across Dayao.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle rang and pointed at Dayao. Dayao was hit and stumbled and got a blocking foul.

Barkley laughed: "I don't think the cooperation between Nash and Old K will be worse than the cooperation between Michael and O'Neal in the past, because Nash's passing is better than Michael's."

Kenny Smith said: "It won't be better, because Nash doesn't have Michael's ability to attract double teams."

Barkley sighed: "It's good to be so strong. If it wasn't for the old K, Michael and O'Neal teamed up, they were all at their peak, and they played a dynasty in those years, I'm not surprised."

"It's just fate, the 1990s is the era of old K." Kenny Smith laughed.

Barkley nodded and said: "From the beginning of the 90/91 season to the end of the 99/00 season, in ten seasons, Jordan has three championships, and the big dream counts as one championship. In fact, he is only one-third, haha..."

"This **** flying pig!" Da Meng yelled at his house.

Barkley continued with a smile and said: "Old K won three championships in the Suns, and the Lakers had a three-peat dynasty with a total of six championships. In ten seasons, he had six championships alone. Of course, the 1990s was his era.

But I was the core of his first championship in the Suns, so I actually counted two championships in these ten seasons, and won the championship as the core. Old K can only be counted as five championships in ten years. Is it okay for me to count it? "

Kenny Smith joked: "Then you can only count as one championship, and the dream of the second championship is the core."

"Kenny is not bad, not bad for being my old buddy for many years."

In front of the TV, Da Meng was very relieved, and suddenly sneered: "Charles, I just don't know how old K knows that you count his six championships in ten years as five in ten years. What would you think?"

"Ah ow! Ah owe! Ah owe!"

Buckley suddenly sneezed three times in a row on the commentary stand.

Mexican Arena, the game continues.

Pharaoh didn't play violently. After he entered the basket for the first time without success, he was dominated by hooks with nearly two points and two points in the middle. Occasionally, when he had a good chance, he would only go in and dunk one, but in general, there were not many shots. , the offensive desire is not strong.

To be honest, he has no interest in playing Dayao, who was trained by himself. After a game, he only scored 28 points and hit 61%.

In addition, he also grabbed 18 rebounds, sent 9 assists and 5 big blocks, of which Dayao ate 4 of his caps, and also stole Dayao 3 times. He was weak on the offensive end, but caught Dayao on the defensive end. Fuck, like with Garnett.

On the contrary, in the face of the big brother who has cultivated himself, Dayao has a strong desire to attack and hopes to challenge it. However, under the defense of Lao Wang, he made 8 of 19 shots, and the shooting rate was 42.1%, which is not as good as the normal level, plus 5 penalties and 5 penalties. Among them, he scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 4 turnovers and 4 fouls.

After the game, the Suns won the Nets by 8 points.

After the game, Zhang Lili said with a smile: "The result of this game shows a problem, the East is indeed weaker than the West, and it has shown a situation where the West is strong and the East is weak. The East-West hegemony that Mr. Stern created has been completely broken."

Su Qun nodded and said: "Indeed, the Suns are not the strongest in the West, and today Old K didn't attack with all his strength and still won the Nets. First, the Suns' lineup is really not bad, and the second is the Nets' team. Strength can dominate in the East, but not the top in the West."

Zhang Lili said: "The Nets play against the Suns, mainly because the inside combination is not as good as the Suns. Although Dayao has reached the level of a top center, he is definitely not as good as the Tiejun, and Stoudemire is much stronger than the Nets' marginal power forward.

If the Nets want the championship, they must strengthen the No. 4 position. Dayao is still missing a good helper, and the bench lineup should also be strengthened. "

On the TNT commentary booth, Barkley analyzed: "It is certain that the west is strong and the east is weak now. The formation of this situation is that one is the shark's westward journey, and the other is the comeback of old K.

The Sharks swim to the west, which directly allows the Lakers to complete the reconstruction and immediately return to the championship. The return of the old K also makes the Suns a super team at the championship level, making the competition in the west more intense, and at the same time making the west stronger against the east more obvious. "

Kenny Smith analyzed: "The league should vigorously support the East, the Nets, the Pistons, and Philadelphia. If these strong teams cannot compete with the Western powers, the East and the West will lose their balance, resulting in the finals being unwatchable."

Barkley laughed: "So this season's playoffs, the Western Conference will definitely be more attractive, and the Western Conference finals are likely to replace the finals and become the series with the highest ratings in the playoffs."

David Stern is thinking about how to change this situation.

The things he built in the past were really successful, and they maintained their popularity for four seasons. In the finals of those four seasons, the ratings increased year by year. In 2001, the tiebreaker in the finals when K was injured The war, the ratings broke the 70 million mark.

And the current pattern of weak east and strong west is not what he wants to see, what he wants is balance.

The Nets can support, and Philadelphia. The Pistons have a good record now, but he doesn't like the Pistons' style of play and has no plans to support them. If the Pistons reach the finals, the ratings may drop to where.

In addition, there are Pacers in the east. Although Ewing ran away, O'Neal was brought in from the Magic and Ron Artest was brought in from the Bulls. If there is a recovery trend, you can also support it.

Also, the Western powers need to be suppressed. In addition to the Suns who need to keep an eye on them, the money offensive of Blazers owner Paul Allen has disrupted the balance of the league.

However, the old K came back and is still in a very brave state. The Suns are good now and will only get stronger in the future. He feels that there is a need for a team that can compete with the Suns, and the lineups like the Blazers and the Lakers are luxurious Such a team, so the degree of suppression can not be too severe.
