NBA Backer King Chapter 596

  Chapter 596 Flying Man, old K has the guts to come back, do you have the guts to come back?

   At this time, the two sides started the field.

  The Rose Garden sent huge boos to the visiting team, but when it was Lao Wang's turn to play, there was still warm applause at the scene, and a large number of home fans sent cheers and their respect for the first player in the league.

  At eight o'clock, the game officially begins.

  Old Wang and Duncan jump the ball, one is flying and the other is floor. Duncan doesn't jump much, and the Suns attack.

  Playing Duncan is different from playing O'Neal. Duncan is now about 120 kilograms in tonnage, and 120 kilograms of Duncan can't carry him, so he can go directly to the basket. He hopes to make a deterrent start.

Duncan also has self-knowledge that he can't hold the top defense, and he doesn't bounce around the front. I'm afraid he can't cut off the old K's receiving line, so he adopts a close-fitting side defense. When the old K enters the basket and turns around for the ball, he entangles the old K's right arm, the old K shoots with his right hand and is not good at using his left hand. At the same time, Rasheed Wallace from the right wing will come to help defend in time, and the two just double-team one left and one right.

  Nash held the ball to get rid of Bunch Wells' entanglement, and lobbed the ball in.

Lao Wang pushed Duncan away with his right elbow. At this time, his left eye noticed that Rasheed Wallace was rushing from the right wing. He immediately stepped forward, caught the ball in the air, and then completed a turn in the air to face the basket. well shot.

   "This is... a step-back hook?" Zhang Reasonable's eyes widened.

"brush!"

   Splashes appeared, and nearly two points were hit.

"Oh!"

  Because of this ball, there was an exclamation in the Rose Garden.

  Jordan and the glider both jumped up from their seats, their faces full of shock.

   "I X!"

  Su Qun swears directly, and his face is full of shock: "Is this a step back hook?"

  Zhang Lili was also shocked and said: "Barely counted, but definitely not. Jumping forward, catching the ball in the air, turning around and shooting, this cannot be a technical movement of a center at all, it is a movement of a defender."

  On the sidelines, Dameng asked Jordan next to him: "Michael, can you still play like this now?"

  The shocked expression on Jordan's face was gone, he nodded and said, "Don't talk about it now, I can play like this when I am eighty years old."

"cut!"

  The old rival Glider said disdainfully: "Anyone has the guts to brag, because bragging is not taxable, but old K has the guts to come back, do you have the guts to come back?"

  He is not afraid of Jordan. Thinking about how the Suns swept Jordan in the finals as the main force, he has enough confidence to face Jordan for the rest of his life.

"you?"

  Jordan was so angry that his face twitched wildly, he glared at the glider, and didn't answer the question.

   Seeing the glider hate Jordan, Dameng and Lei Gong next to him couldn't help laughing.

  On the field, Rasheed Wallace asked in shock: "Old K, what kind of work is this?"

   "What flower work?"

Old Wang glared at Ting Zi, and said proudly: "My technology has reached the state of simplifying the complex, returning to the basics, and doing whatever you want. If you talk too much, you won't understand. Anyway, it's a very awesome state. Unexperienced realm."

   Troll said with a look of admiration: "Old K, can you teach me?"

   "Teach you what? Can you understand these realms? I said it in Chinese. What the **** do you know?" Old Wang said angrily.

   "Teach me how to brag? I think it's very advanced, and learning my trash talk should raise a level." The troll said with a smile.

   "Get out!" Pharaoh scolded with a smile.

  He really wasn't bragging, the hook just now was just a free throw.

  Originally, he stepped back, caught the ball in the air and finished facing the basket, and then attacked after landing, but at the moment of facing the basket, he felt that he was still in the air, so he shot directly. Unexpectedly, it felt good and hit.

   Blazers offense.

  Rashidra stepped into the right-wing three-point line, and after getting rid of Stoudemire with Bunch Wells' pick-and-roll, he hit a ball over Joe Johnson's head.

  The sun attacked, but Lao Wang still entered the basket.

   "Teaming the basket."

   Blazers coach Mike Dunleavy roared loudly.

   Right wing, Bunch Wells heard, quickly lost Joe Johnson, and rushed into the paint.

   "Teaming early, will old K still forcefully fight?" Su Qun asked immediately.

   "Whoosh!"

   Nash passes the ball to Joe Johnson, who is open.

  Joe Johnson received the ball, and the nearest Rasheed Wallace rushed over. He made up the defense very quickly. The sophomore who had never played in the playoffs was nervous and hurriedly shot.

"boom!"

  The basketball hit the basket and rebounded, it was short.

  At the basket, under the pincer attack of Duncan and Bunchwells, Lao Wang forcibly stood up, and by virtue of his jump and height advantage, he grabbed the offensive rebound.

   After landing, he was entangled by four arms. With his left foot as the axis, he turned around suddenly, directly flipped Bunch Wells who was hanging on his left arm, and knocked Duncan away at the same time, gaining space to get up.

"boom!"

  The next moment, the behemoth soared into the air, dunking heavily with both hands, and blasted the Blazers' basket.

"Beautiful! Although the old K has lost 5 kilograms, as long as the opponent is not O'Neal, he is still an unstoppable monster under the basket. It is useless to double-team him. His dominance is infinite!" Su Qun shouted excitedly .

   "Although Wells is strong, he is only a swingman after all, not an insider, and the tonnage is not enough." Zhang Lili laughed.

   "If the trolls double-team early, Stoudemire will be free. Stoudemire's mid-range shot is also average, not as good as Joe Johnson." Su Qun said.

   Zhang reasonably analyzed: "Probably because he was worried that Stoudemire would make an empty cut after he was free? Stoudemire rushed in. Even though there was no room for him to dunk, he still had a throw.

  However, the real reason for not using the trolls to double-team the Tiejun is that they still hope to use the trolls' ability to assist defense to timely fill in the vacancy left by the outside line.

  If a sprayer is used to double-team, it will be difficult for the Blazers to use other people to defend Stoudemire, and the height is not enough. Without timely supplementary defense, even if Stoudemire's mid-range shooting ability is average, the threat of openings is still great. "

  On the sidelines, Mike Dunleavy is also considering whether to let Rasheed Wallace double-team in advance.

  As analyzed reasonably by Zhang, he was worried that after Stoudemire was emptied, the height of the two defenders would not be enough to prevent Stoudemire's height.

  If Pippen is young, he can be used to defend Stoudemire, but Pippen is old and injured, his defense is no longer good, and his movement speed is not good enough.

   Blazers offense.

   Right wing, Bunch Wells and Rasheed Wallace moved continuously, the former entered the low post, the latter pulled to the three-point line,

  At this time, Pippen, who was holding the ball on the left wing, passed the ball to the troll, and the troll passed it on. Wells started to single Joe Johnson in the low post.

   Bunch is a swingman with a forward and a guard, but he has the ability to play low singles. Just like Jordan back then, he often played low singles.

   "Bang bang!"

  During the dribble, he turned and broke through, swayed Joe Johnson, and then suddenly got up to shoot a jumper.

"Snapped!"

  Old Wang came from the basket, stepped up after a big step, flew past Joe Johnson, waved his hand, and pointed the thrown ball into the sky.

  The power to block the shot was just right, and he even had enough power to control the landing point of the ball. As soon as he landed, the ball just fell from the sky and was caught by him.

   "This supplementary defense is really beautiful! Especially the power of blocking is used just right. Tie Jun's control of power should have reached its peak." Zhang Lili couldn't help but admire.

Su Qun said with a smile: "Wells is good at low-post singles, but he may have forgotten the speed of the old K's defense. The old K can make up to the three-point line now, which is faster than Garnett. Covering the entire three-point line, covering the low post is too easy."

  The Suns attacked, and Lao Wang still entered the basket.

   "Rashid!"

   On the sidelines, Mike Dunleavy couldn't help but roared.

   Rasheed Wallace immediately lost Stoudemire, rushed to the basket, and double-teamed early.

   There are still two steps away from the three-point line. Seeing that Stoudemire is empty, Nash immediately takes a step to the right, avoids Derek Anderson, and pushes the ball with both hands.

   "Whoosh!"

  The ball passed through the Blazers' lines of defense like a scalpel and went straight to Stoudemire.

   Stoudemire received the ball, two steps away from the paint area, a little far away, lacking in confidence, and because of nervousness, his hands were shaking a little.

His mid-range shot is not good, and he is afraid of missing shots, but he dare not hesitate, because this is a well-established tactic, and the old K will attract double-teams under the basket. up.

"boom!"

  Unfortunately, I really missed.

"Snapped!"

  Old Wang abruptly took off under the double-teaming of Duncan and the sprayer, but he didn't have a chance to catch the ball. Instead, he hit the ball with one hand and flew in the direction of Stoudemire.

   Stoudemire took the ball again, and Bunchwells above him had already made up for him, and he forced a mid-range shot again.

"boom!"

   Still missed, this time Duncan grabbed the rebound.

   "If you have the opportunity, there is really nothing you can do if you don't make the shot." Zhang Li shook his head and sighed.

   "Rookie, there's no way. It's the first time to play in the playoffs, and it's against a championship-level team like the Trail Blazers. Stoudemire should be very nervous." Su Qun said.

  The Blazers attack, Duncan asks for the ball in the low post on the left wing, and Pippen holds the ball above the three-point line.

   Pippen didn't hold the ball to break through, but passed it down. Facing Marion's defense and his mobility degraded, his success rate of making a strong breakthrough was not high.

  Before the ball arrived, Lao Wang, who was defending against him, immediately clung to Duncan, squeezed forward with his chest, and then suddenly withdrew his force.

But Duncan has a lot of experience playing against him. Facing this combination of virtual and real top defense, he coped well. He directly retreated a step to catch the ball, and then used his right foot as the axis to turn around and slip to the bottom, a technical move. It is very coherent and concise, and it has reached the point where it has been refined into simplicity.

  Pharaoh's right (back) foot does not move, and his left (front) foot takes a quick step back.

  If Duncan really slips, he only needs to take another step with his right foot, and he can complete the defense in time, sticking to Duncan who entered the basket from the upper side.

  And if Duncan's downward sway is a fake action, followed by an upward sway, and a 45-degree shot to hit the board, the retreating left foot can immediately take a step back to block the shot.

  The next moment, Duncan swayed downwards and then swayed upwards. When he turned upwards, his right foot was on top of his left waist, and he hit the board at 45 degrees.

"Snapped!"

  Pharaoh, who was engrossed in the game, reacted too quickly. His left foot took a quick step back, and then he jumped up, grabbed the ball with both hands, and caught the ball directly.

"Ugh!"

   Rose Arena sighed.

"boom!"

  The Suns played a fast break, and Marion had already thrown off the old Pi Erye. After receiving a direct pass from Lao Wang, it was a dunk when he went to the basket.

  Jordan said with some gratitude: "This guy's defense is stronger than before."

  Dameng sighed and said: "Old K is really a monster. He is thirty years old, and he can actually increase his speed after being seriously injured."

   "It's okay after losing weight."

  Jordan didn't take it seriously, and said: "Although Duncan is stable, he can't get into the basket and beat the old K. This is where he is not as good as O'Neal.

  I teamed up with the Sharks and used the tactic of attacking the old K. The success rate is still good, but it is difficult for the Blazers to play such a tactic now. "

Dameng nodded and said: "Old K's defensive speed is faster, and no one in the Blazers has the ability to break through with the ball as strong as you. In addition, Pippen is also old and can't move. Without the breakthrough with the ball, he His organizational ability is only passing the ball, and without defense, he is no longer a threat."

   Speaking of this, he couldn't help asking: "Michael, are you more optimistic about the sun?"

  "Of course, the old K guy held back the entire regular season, isn't he just going to explode in the playoffs? Today his desire to attack is very strong, can't you see it?" Jordan said.

   "The defense is also strong. When his defense explodes, he has never lost." The glider said at this time.

   Lei Gong next to him also nodded and said: "Since his rookie season, Old K's defense has really exploded, and he has never lost a game in his tenth season."

Dameng smiled and said: "It depends on whether he can maintain this defensive intensity for the entire game today. The current Suns, except for Marion, are full of loopholes. It's really hard for him not to play a top-level defensive performance." The trailblazer."

  Jordan's face twitched, he was the victim of old K's defensive explosion.

He still remembers that in Old K's rookie season, in the G6 game of the 1993 finals, it was precisely because of Old K's defensive explosion that the Suns won the championship with a big score of 4 to 2, and his dynasty was interrupted. The dream of the dynasty, the dream broke the hand of old K.

  If the Bulls hadn't lost that game and made it to the tiebreaker, with Barkley's mind at the time worrying about gains and losses, Old K's offense was far less terrifying than later, and the Bulls would have a greater chance of winning the tiebreaker.

  After Barkley retired last year, I talked to him about the situation at that time.

  At that time, Barkley even gave up, and only hoped to wait for the old K to grow up before hitting the championship, but the old K did not give up, and finally won the G6 game relying on defense.

  If he completed the dynasty that year, with his status in the league, even if the old K later played the dynasty, it would be difficult to surpass him in history.

  So, he is actually the biggest victim of old K's defensive explosion, a super sufferer.

   In the 9th minute of the first quarter, at 22:16, the Blazers fell behind at home and called the second timeout of this quarter.

  Wang Tiejun made 4 of 5 shots and 3 of 3 free throws in 9 minutes of the first quarter. He scored 11 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 3 blocks and 1 foul.

  Duncan made 2 of 5 shots and 1 of 2 free throws in 9 minutes. He scored 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 turnover and 1 foul.

During the timeout, Su Qun analyzed: "The performance of the Suns in the first quarter, Joe Johnson made 0 of 2 shots and scored 0 points, Stoudemire scored 2 points on 1 of 3 shots, Marion scored 6 points on 3 of 5 shots, he had two points. The ball was a fast break, and he made 1 of 3 shots in the positional battle, and Nash scored 3 points on 1 of 2 shots in the first quarter and sent 3 assists."

Zhang Lili said: "Joe Johnson is still too good. Stoudemire also played a little nervous today and didn't let go. Marion is actually the same. If he didn't score fast breaks, his efficiency would not be high. Nash is not bad. He made a shot. three points.

  On the whole, the Iron Army broke out at both ends of the offense and defense. On the basis of restricting Duncan, as long as the teammates don't stretch their hips, the Suns and the Trail Blazers can fight.

   In addition, Pippen's playing time is limited, and the playoffs should not exceed 30 minutes. The chances of the Suns winning are not small. "

  Su Qun said: "Duncan is actually very good. Today's performance is not bad. Old K defended him so much. He still had a 40% hit rate and caused old K to foul once."

  Zhang rationally said with a smile: "Duncan and Garnett are super giants, especially Duncan, who belongs to the top offensive and defensive super giants, and it is impossible to prevent death.

  No matter how strong Tie Jun's defense is, he can't seal the opponent every game. That kind of situation is extremely rare, when the opponent's morale collapses and the state is extremely poor, but his state is extremely good.

  For so many seasons, the Iron Army has not had many games where they can really score a clean sheet against their opponents, but only a few games. This season, they have scored a clean sheet against Garnett once.

Duncan's shooting percentage in the playoffs so far is 50.1%, but he played very well in the first round this year, reaching 52%. His biggest feature is stability. The Iron Army can prevent his shooting percentage to 40%, which is low Twelve percentage points in the first round, which is already very good. "

   On the Trail Blazers bench, Mike Dunleavy is arranging substitutions, but he is a little embarrassed because he doesn't know whether the old K will continue to play.

  He replaced Derek Anderson first, and Anderson did not perform well just now, so he replaced Damon Stoudemire, the flying mouse.

   Little Flying Squirrel suffered serious injuries this season. He only played 59 games in the regular season, 27 of which were starts, and averaged only 22 minutes per game. He was not scheduled to start in the first round of the playoffs.

   But now there is no way. Under Marion's defense, Pippen's state is not very good, and under the old K's defense, Duncan has not played a good performance, so a real point guard is needed to organize the offense.

Inside he called Dale Davis who is 211 cm. If the old K does not go down, let Duncan continue to play. If the old K goes down, let Davis replace Duncan, and replace Zach Randolph at the fourth position. Rasheed Wallace came down first to rest.

  After the timeout, the players are ready to play.

  Mike Dunleavy stared at the Suns, and was relieved to see Old K sitting still.

   In the past, old K played the playoffs, basically starting from the second round, playing the whole court, and now he is off the court, which shows that his physical fitness is indeed not as terrifying as before.

  He quickly signaled Davis to go up and let Duncan continue to rest.
