Chapter 414 405: I miss Jack Fan very much

When the Knicks put out this pure forward lineup, the fans at the scene were stunned.

Many years ago, Knicks fans knew that Fan Xie was good at fast breaks, and he was good at launching attacks with a lightning-fast offensive. This kind of offensive often does not depend on the height and singles of inside players, and only needs to run.

At that time, Fan Xi often led the old Ewing to run, and Ewing really played a lot of efficient offenses under such circumstances.

just now.

The Knicks don't have a single insider, but their opponent is the Detroit Pistons, which are known for their defense in the penalty area.

Could this be suicide?
Home fans have this homely concern.

Kenny Smith said bluntly: "This must be Jack Fan's idea. For a long time, the Knicks' style of play has been controlled by Jack Fan. He has always been the kind of player who pursues his own personality. He always thinks that he is superior, but in fact for so many years, his 'genius ideas' have not succeeded. Tonight, he will taste failure again. He is still a long, long way from dominating the league."

At this time, Charles Barkley couldn't stand it anymore. He said to Kenny: "The game has not officially started. How can you say that Jack is doomed to fail? If Jack succeeds, how should you comment? Would you say that Jack created an unprecedented style of play, and he brought the league into a new era?"

"Of course. But, he won't succeed. He's facing the most conservative team in the league. The Knicks will get tough resistance soon. He will be strangled by Detroit from the inside out. Those ideas that are based on imagination can't stand the test. This is the Eastern Conference finals! He hasn't gotten to this point yet."

Kenny Smith naturally set the flag.

He was originally a sober person, but when facing Fan Xie, he always lost his mind so easily. Perhaps it was because he was always worried about the trade that year. Who wouldn't want to be the man who defeated Jordan in the finals.

beep!

The whistle sounded.

Larry Brown was standing on the sidelines, and he didn't show any contempt.He paced back and forth, watching the Knicks closely.

There is no doubt that the Knicks' current lineup is groundbreaking...In the history of the NBA, there has never been a team that gave up all inside and replaced all outside players in the Eastern Conference Finals.After all, in the basketball philosophy, the penalty area is a battleground. The famous Japanese center once said that only those who control the basket can control the whole court.

This is why so many teams are hoarding insiders crazily.Even a center who can't do anything can get a good salary as long as he has good tonnage and athletic ability and can play defense.

Vanhee received a pass from Reggie Miller, and he didn't hesitate.

He led the team to rush up directly, and Sprewell and Grant Hill launched an attack on the other side at the same time according to his request.

The Pistons obviously haven't seen this kind of scene, and even Rasheed Wallace doesn't know who to guard.

At this moment, after Fan Xi entered the penalty area, he took advantage of the chaos and turned his head to look at the moon. Reggie Miller ran to the top of the three-point line to catch the ball... Swish!

Three point hit.

Reggie Miller did it.

He represented the tall shooter and made outstanding contributions to the promotion of running and gunning.

The fans at the scene screamed, and their shock was far more than their voices.

Does this work too?

Larry Brown was a little skeptical of his basketball experience for so many years. He had seen the fast offense, and the old Nelson liked to do that.

However, it was the first time he had seen such a crazy formation.

Larry Brown quickly made a gesture to let the team stabilize the singles.

Moreover, signal the team to play inside.

At this time, the two insiders of the Pistons are Rasheed Wallace and Collins.

Collins is considered a half-collar. He has a little technology, but not to the level of breaking into the room.

Rasheed Wallace receives a pass from Billups.

Wallace opened the single, and standing in front of him was Stephen Jackson.

Stephen Jackson's height is not short, standing in front of Rashid, there is no obvious gap.

And, he went forward very forcefully.Rasheed Wallace pushed Jackson twice with his back. Jackson really couldn't resist, but when Wallace turned around and tried to shoot, Grant Hill on one side struck him like lightning... This former Jordan successor was an elegant gentleman off the court, but he was a full-fledged predator on the court.

Snapped!
Hill directly cut off the basketball in Rasheed Wallace's hand, and then passed it to Fan Xie.

Fan Xi ran all the way, and the Pistons' defense was only a little slower.

boom!
Fan Xi took off directly, stretched his body, and completed a powerful tomahawk dunk.

After a night of silence at the Knicks' home stadium, Madison Gardens, uncontrollable cheers erupted.

Loud sound.

Larry Brown quickly put Ben Wallace and Hamilton on the field and told them: Next, we must do our best to block them.

Ben Wallace and Hamilton took to the field with Larry Brown's confession.

They strictly enforce the will of the head coach.

Hamilton was still running all over the field, but this time, he hit Ray.

Because when the Knicks put on five perimeter players, there was a weird chemical reaction... Pat Riley's eyes lit up in front of the TV.

Hamilton obviously got rid of Sprewell's defense, but at the moment he caught the basketball, Reggie Miller made up for it, and at the moment he shot, stretched out his hand to cover it.

boom!
Basketball strikes iron.

Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace originally wanted to accept the rebound without any scruples, but they didn't expect Steve Jackson and Grant Hill to get stuck with them.

Fan Xi flew over and protected the rebound.

Immediately launched a fast attack.

Van Heede uses his amazing jumping and confrontation ability to play the demeanor of a point guard.

That's why, many years later, Westbrook's template was Van Dohee.

Fan Xie, who took off the rebound, saved the time of the fast break. He galloped all the way, he came to the frontcourt, broke through the defense wide open, jumped high in the penalty area, threw the basketball casually, and Sprewell galloped from the side...Boom!

Another dunk.

The speed of the defensive counterattack is bizarre.

The Wallace Brothers were just running into the paint.

too fast.

Fan Xi didn't expect the chemical reaction to be so good.

There is no way, the five players of the team are all players with extremely high tactical literacy and strong defensive capabilities.Hill is the pride of Duke, Stephen Jackson is a defensive player trained by the Spurs system, Sprewell's defense is already very good, not to mention Reggie Miller, and his basketball IQ ranks among the top in NBA history.

This combination makes a run.

The effect is far stronger than the Phoenix Suns two years later.

"The Pistons were baffled, and they never imagined that basketball could be played like this." Charles Barkley said triumphantly to Kenny Smith: "Now, you should know what an epoch-making superstar is."

Kenny Smith was silent.

He awaits the further development of the matter.

The Detroit Pistons stepped up their offensive position, but there was some misfiring on the periphery.

The Knicks' rotation defense is too strong.

And although their inside lines are high, they have no skills.

Ben Wallace can't do singles at all. If UFC Unrestricted Fighting, he can beat Grant Hill to death, but in singles with the ball, he is not enough to beat Hill in terms of pace or skill.

Rasheed Wallace has the skill and the ability, but Stephen Jackson made it harder for him tonight.

His efficiency also collapsed.

That's the downside of Pistons.

The Knicks hit right and wrong.

They don't have a super scorer, and when the Knicks put two inferior horses in the paint, it negates some of their power... Although Rasheed Wallace can't be so passive every game, at least tonight, his passivity is a foregone conclusion.

Although, their offensive rebounds are higher than before.

However, the Knicks' fast-break efficiency prevents them from fully focusing on rebounding, because once the rebound is missed, the Knicks will immediately complete the fast-break counterattack.

If the first three quarters were the Knicks entering the Pistons' defensive swamp.

Then in the fourth quarter, the Pistons got into the Knicks' offensive swamp.

There was nothing they could do.

Larry Brown was pacing back and forth on the sidelines. The experienced academic coach encountered an unknown challenge at this moment.

The old man needs some time to digest.

However, Fan Xi didn't intend to give him a chance to react.

A wave of flow directly expanded the difference to double digits.

In the last 3 minutes, the Pistons tried to resist, but the resistance was ineffective.Billups, a big-hearted player, was defended by Fanhee for two consecutive offenses.

Finally the whistle blew.

101: 86.

The Knicks won the final victory.

It can be seen from this score that the Pistons still maintain their previous offensive level.

And the Knicks have escaped their defensive trap.

Larry Brown claimed in an interview after the game that he was shocked. He said he never thought the Knicks would take that kind of offensive, they were too crazy.

Yes.

very crazy.

The Knicks' style of play was ahead of its time.

The video of the last quarter of the game was quickly sent to the coaches of all the teams in the league, and the NBA headquarters was also observing this overwhelming offensive.

In the words of Charles Barkley: "It seems that Jack is not only going to rule the league. He also wants to rewrite the historical pattern of the league ruled by the inside. What Jordan didn't do, can he do it? He can make the outside completely rule the league from now on?"

Although Barkley's words were flattering Fan Xie.

It also elevates the tactical positioning of the final fast break.

But it does speak to a degree of something bizarre but possible.

From the beginning to the present, the NBA has always been dominated by super centers. Although Jordan won the championship halfway, he did not change the fact that the inside still controls the league. He just proved that outside players can be higher than super centers.

And if Fan Xi can rewrite the history of the league ruled by the inside by himself, and completely transfer the dominance of the game from the restricted area to the outside.

Then he is undoubtedly the second basketball god, even surpassing Michael Jordan's basketball god.

Kenny Smith poured cold water. He said: "Even if the Knicks take crazy risks to win a victory, what does it mean? The Pistons will soon come back to their senses and snipe them with real strength. I have never seen a team without a center go far. Even in the three-on-three half court team on the street, people know to find a tall guy to protect the rebound."

Smith represents 'basketball orthodoxy', and both he and mainstream basketball experts feel that the final style of play led by Fan Xie is deviant and a crazy risk.

Fan Xi didn't think about the so-called basketball route.

He's just happy to win this game.

Isiah Thomas, on the other hand, liked to debate.

He's always been a jerk.

"I always believe that the most important position in the league is the No. 1 position. It is the point guard. The point guard is the brain of the team. The point guard is the commander of the court. The point guard should dominate everything. Jack is the ultimate form of point guard. He can take the rebound from the penalty area and launch a fast break directly.

"I have seen Michael Jordan before, and I can swear by my personality. When he was 26 years old, Jordan was definitely not as strong as Jack is now. At that time, Jordan was still empty-handed, and I was pinned down by me. Jack has already had two finals MVPs."

Isiah Thomas said very confidently: "Jack Fan will surpass Michael Jordan, and I'm sure this will happen quickly."

"As for the explanation of the final play, I have always believed that the best defense is offense. When we rush, they don't dare to go for the offensive rebound at all. Our offense keeps them tied, and that's the reason for the victory."

Isiah Thomas said: "The new style of play will redefine the space on the court. Believe me, we will soon usher in the era of real big point guards. Young children, you have to thank Jack, and you have to thank Jack for his amazing success in the NBA, allowing you to get higher evaluation. It seems that in the past few years, every team in the NBA will raise a big man to deal with Shaquille O'Neal, and they should also thank Shaq."

Isiah Thomas quarreled with the Confucians.

He enjoys the role.

As for being pointed at by the media and scolded as 'nonsense, misleading children', it is no longer within his consideration.

Anyway, from the beginning to the end, he was not a likable person.

In the player era, he was also an existence that people hated and hated ghosts.

Now, he is not so lonely. He can still stand beside Fan Xi and forcibly guide Jiangshan as an 'Emperor Teacher'.

It is worth mentioning that as soon as Isiah Thomas finished speaking, Shaq O'Neal in Los Angeles expressed partial agreement with Thomas.

But at the same time, O'Neal also gave his opinion: "Why can't the Pistons resist the crazy attack of the Knicks? Because they don't have O'Neal. If they touch me, they will surround me with five outsiders, and they will not be able to stop me from putting the basketball into the basket."

"I can't wait for the Knicks to beat the Pistons and get to the Finals."
