NBA backer king

Chapter 625: Dayao God-level Explosion
Sun attack.

The Blazers played man-to-man and played zone defense today, setting up a defensive formation of [-] zone defense.

Lao Wang wanted the ball in the low post on the left wing.

The [-] zone defense is stronger for the flanks, but not enough for the top of the arc. Nash holds the ball close to the top of the arc. Small forward Michael in the center and Payton on the right immediately move to the top of the arc, but Nash passes the ball down in time.

But while the ball was still flying in the sky, the Blazers' double-teaming began, and the small forward Max, who was just about to double-team Nash, turned around and jumped down.

Lao Wang also scored a lot of shots today, but everyone was in a mediocre state and failed to make many open shots, so this time he didn't score the ball and planned to do it by himself. Anyway, he still has a 46.6% shooting rate, ranking first in the team.

After receiving the ball, take the left foot as the axis, turn upwards and take advantage of the trend, and step into the paint area with the right foot.

Duncan's defense was overwhelming today, and he immediately reacted defensively. He moved his feet, turned upwards, and while keeping up with Lao Wang, pushed up with his chest, so that even if Lao Wang forced his way in, he would not be able to get close to the basket, and Max on top had already come down, and it only took half a second to form a double-team.

But the next moment, as soon as Lao Wang stepped on the floor of the paint area with his right foot, he kicked suddenly, turned his head back, swung his arms, twisted his waist and abdomen, and turned his whole body backwards in an instant.

"Slip!"

Duncan was indeed overwhelmed with defense today, reacted instantly, and immediately turned and turned down.

But the next moment, Pharaoh turned up again, and the right foot that had just been withdrawn stepped into the paint area in an instant.

"Oops!"

At this time, Duncan was already stunned.

Up and down, and then up, Wang managed to shake Duncan, but Max had already jumped to his side, and he didn't have a chance to get the ball into the paint.

However, at this time Nash had already cut into the paint from the front of the arc.

Two-one-two defense, two defenders on the left and right waists, two defenders on the top of the left and right flanks, and one defender in the middle. They have a strong defense against outside breakthroughs and can form double-teams for low positions at any time, but only the top of the arc is not enough.

So when Michael, who was guarding the middle, jumped down to double-team the low post, the middle part of the top of the arc was exposed, and the road from the top of the arc to the basket was exposed to Nash's sight, and he immediately started a frontal cut.

"Old K!"

Payton and Anderson on the left and right flanks failed to block in time, and Nash successfully made an air cut. When he rushed to the basket, he extended his hand to Lao Wang.

"brush!"

Pharaoh reacted quickly with a short pass, Nash caught the ball for a layup and hit a goal.

Su Qun praised: "Nash made a beautiful cut! Tie Jun's pass is also beautiful!"

Zhang Lili said with a smile: "The best way to break the two-one-two zone defense is to be accurate on the outside. Like Jordan, the breakthrough must be extremely fast. Like Iverson, you must prevent the opponent from forming a double-team. You must make full use of your teammates' pick-and-rolls to find opportunities for shots and breakthroughs. You must use continuous passing to tear the opponent's zone defense. Once the opponent's zone defense has a loophole, immediately break through.

And if the defender in the middle double-teams the low post, then there will be a gap in the front, and the offensive side will increase the front cut, which is what Nash just did. "

The Blazers attacked, Duncan swayed up and down, and then hit the board at 45 degrees. The whole set of movements was honed, like a machine.

But Lao Wang predicted that Duncan would not attack the basket with a high probability, because this kid no longer has sufficient physical fitness, and he would probably choose to shoot outside.

"Snapped!"

When Duncan made a shot, Lao Wang, who didn't hesitate, sent a cap in time, and directly put his hands together to confiscate the ball.

Amidst the cheers of the audience, the Suns immediately played a fast break. Except for Lao Wang, the other four players did not pull at all. Nash, Marion, Zhu Fangyu, Josh Howard, all went down quickly.

Randolph couldn't keep up with Marion at all, and Payton couldn't keep up with Nash at all. Zhu Fangyu and Josh Howard came off the bench, with more physical fitness, and even went down at full speed, rushing to the front.

Nash caught the ball across the halfway line, but slowed down because his teammates rushed up, so he didn't need to waste any more energy, and casually threw an overhead pass, and the ball flew over the head of Marion who had just rushed past him.

"boom!"

After receiving the ball, Marion rushed into the paint area, flew dunks, and blasted the Blazers' basket.

"Come on, the Suns, we are only two points behind." Su Qun shouted excitedly.

Trail Blazers attack.

Like the G1 game, the Suns still didn't play zone defense and played man-to-man.

Anderson broke through Josh Howard with the ball, encountered Marion's supplementary defense, and immediately distributed the ball to Randolph who cut to the basket.

Randolph caught the ball into the paint and hit a small floater against Wang's block.

"boom!"

He didn't hit the cap, but he didn't hit it either. The basketball hit the basket and Duncan grabbed the offensive rebound from behind, took off for the second time, and made a layup.

Lao Wang turned around in time and jumped again to block the block. This time the cap arrived and he slapped the ball into the sky.

The next moment, a bunch of people under the basket huddled together, ready to grab the ball.

Lao Wang landed, jumped up in the crowd, and hit the ball to the left wing.

Zhu Fangyu got the ball and immediately passed it to Nash who had already turned around at the top of the arc, and the Suns' fast break began.

Not many people participated in the fast break, and not many people returned to the defense, because most of the two teams were under the basket. The Suns only had Nash and Zhu Fangyu, and the Blazers only had Payton and Anderson. Payton followed Nash, and Anderson returned from the left wing.

In order to win, for the championship, Payton is also desperate. He will be 36 years old soon. Without the ball, the small universe explodes, and he barely catches up with the son of the wind.

Nash didn't force a layup. He knew that Zhu Fangyu was behind, and when he rushed into the paint, he immediately changed direction and pulled to the left wing.

At this time, Zhu Fangyu rushed into the paint from the right elbow, and Anderson, who returned from the left wing, could only slow down because he was completely unable to stop the opponent's attack.

"boom!"

Passing the ball, catching the ball in the air, Zhu Fangyu dunked with both hands, and completed an alley-oop with Nash, which won the cheers of the audience.

"It's a tie! Congratulations to Zhu Fangyu, who completed a beautiful alley-oop!" Su Qun shouted excitedly.

Zhang Lili said excitedly: "After the playoffs is the Olympics, I hope our men's basketball team can realize that great dream this time.

It just so happens that the strength of the US team is not strong enough now, the old generation has come to an end, the new generation has not grown up, but our strength is getting stronger and stronger. "

"Yes, yes, yes." Su Qun nodded excitedly.

In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley said: "From the perspective of the final quarter, the Blazers are at a disadvantage. The main problem is that the main players of the Blazers have been playing for too long, and under the small ball tactics of the Suns, Duncan and Randolph have consumed too much physical energy, and now they are obviously not physically fit.

The Blazers played a good defense in the first three quarters and even led the Suns. Looking at it now, there will be changes in the final quarter. "

Kenny Smith said: "The rotation of the Suns is very strong, and D'Antoni's guts are still good. He boldly used two rookies and continued to rotate at the second, third and fourth positions. Stoudemire, Marion, and Joe Johnson all got a lot of rest time.

This is a very important point. In the last quarter, the Suns gained a physical advantage. Up to now, the Suns' fast break ability is still very strong, and the trailblazers obviously can't keep up with the rhythm. "

Barkley said with a smile: "Marion can play the third and fourth positions, he can play the first substitute for Stoudemire, ensure that Stoudemire gets enough rest time, and keep the strength of the fourth position from declining.

Zhu Fangyu plays Marion as a substitute in the third position, and Howard can also play in the second and third positions, so that Marion and Joe Johnson can also get a lot of rest time.

This year, the Suns have selected two good rookies. Josh Howard is talented, and Zhu Fangyu was trained by old K. He has participated in his summer camp since he was ten years old. It is said that all the training content is made by old K. "

Kenny Smith said with a smile: "There are two more Chinese players who will participate in the draft this year. It has already been reported by the media. Yi and Sun have performed very well in the NCAA, and the prospects for the draft are great."

Barkley said with a smile: "You have to ask me. I know both Yi Jianlian and Sun Le. I even taught Yi how to play power forward. He is a power forward."

"Oh, yes, they are all excellent. Yi's draft prediction entered the lottery zone, and he was very high. Sun is also good. He predicted the first round, and some media even gave a lottery zone prediction. They all came from the old K's summer camp?" Kenny Smith asked.

"Of course, Yi entered the summer camp when he was about ten years old. Sun Le is the child of old K's friend. He entered the summer camp when he was five or six years old. Like Yao, he is the key person trained by old K." Buckley said familiarly.

On the court, the game continued. The Suns took advantage of their physical strength in the final quarter and slowly gained the upper hand. From falling behind to equalizing, then overtaking, and then opening up the point gap, they finally defeated the Blazers, 92:98, winning by 6 points.

粟群念道：“老K今天22投11中，勉强五成的命中率，15罚8中，拿到了30分19篮板7助攻1抢断7盖帽4失误4犯规的数据。其实表现还是不错的，比邓肯和兰多夫要强一些。”

Zhang Lili said with a smile: "Duncan scored 22 points and 11 rebounds, and shot 44.5%. He was still limited by the iron army's defense, and his efficiency was lower than the regular season and the first two rounds of the series.

Randolph was good today, with 20 points and 8 rebounds, and his shooting percentage was a bit higher than Duncan's, reaching 45.5%, mainly because Stoudemire and Marion couldn't guard him. "

Su Qun said again: "Today, the Suns have good rebounders. Old K alone surpassed Duncan and Randolph. Although he made a little more turnovers, he blocked shots well. He blocked Duncan three times, and Randolph seemed to be three times."

"It's not rebounding and defense. The Suns were really bad today. But fundamentally, the Suns' rotation is better. Coupled with the fast break tactics, the physical fitness of the Blazers' two insiders has been dragged down."

After Zhang Lili said something, he added: "Today's state is not good. Be careful. There are two away games next. If the state continues to fail, the Blazers will seize the home court advantage and it is very likely that they will come back."

As soon as Lao Wang returned to the locker room, he really received a comforting call from Dayao.

"Brother, you are indeed better than me. The 50% shooting rate is more than ten percentage points lower than the regular season. If you didn't grab so many rebounds, you would have lost."

"Let me tell you, Dayao, this is what I'm good at. I don't have enough offense, and I need rebounds. You should learn a little bit more. But you can't learn it, because your rebounds are too hip!"

"Brother, what, it's late, there's a game tomorrow, I'm going to bed."

The consolation failed, and he was counter-consoled. Seeing that the situation was not good, Dayao quickly hung up the phone.

"mock up!"

Pharaoh hung up the phone proudly.

An hour later, a media conference was held.

"Old K, two consecutive victories at home, do you want to sweep the Blazers?" A reporter asked.

"Hope is of course hope. Homeless people also have the dream of becoming a millionaire. If a person loses hope and dreams, he will become a salted fish."

Lao Wang first said a sentence of chicken soup for the soul, and then immediately returned to reality, saying: "But we need to work harder
We are not doing enough tonight, our efforts are not enough to support and realize our dreams and hopes. "

On the Blazers side, the atmosphere was a bit dull.

"Coach Dunleavy, ever since you coached the Trail Blazers, there has never been a team that beat Old K in the playoffs. For this Western Conference finals, the current two-game losing streak, how confident are you that you can make it back at home?" A local reporter asked quite sharply.

From the attitude of this local reporter, Dunleavy seemed to see the possibility of getting out of class, and immediately replied forcefully: "Mr. Reporter, you should know that this is the 11th season of Old K, and it is also his 11th time to reach the Western Conference Finals. He has never missed the Western Conference Finals and won 10 championships in 6 years. Facing such a great opponent, can you find a coach who has absolute confidence in facing Old K? I bet you can't find it."

"In other words, you don't have confidence." The reporter said with certainty.

Dunleavy said in shame and indignation: "Yes, I really don't have the confidence to make it back at home. We have too many injuries inside, we only rely on Duncan and Randolph for support, and there is no better substitute. They play too much time, and are subject to the Suns' fast-paced offense and defense, and their physical fitness cannot keep up. In this situation, I really have no confidence.

So if you can find a head coach who is confident to beat the old K, you can suggest a coaching change to the management, and I will step down and make way for Xian. "

The reporter shook his head helplessly. If he wanted someone to choose, he would have done that a long time ago.

On the 21st, the Suns departed at noon and flew to Portland.

That night, Pharaoh called a group of teammates to watch the Eastern Conference Finals together in a bar in the hotel.

Before the start of the match, he called Dayao and said, "Dayao, don't be lore this time. Being lore-killed by opponents in succession will easily destroy morale."

"Brother, I'm okay, my mental quality is not that bad."

"Does that mean thick-skinned?"

"Brother, why are you getting less and less able to chat?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Dayao, let me tell you, there seems to be no history of consecutive lore kills in the Eastern Conference Finals. Don't break this record, you will show your face when the time comes!"

"Don't worry, brother, I'm in good shape today. When I just warmed up, I hit 28 three-pointers in a row. By the way, brother, how many consecutive three-pointers did you hit during training?"

"what?"

Lao Wang hurriedly hung up the phone, this Dayao was becoming less and less able to chat now.

"Wow, hit again, old K, this is only the second quarter, which three-pointer is Yao's number?"

"Like the second one?"

"The third."

"Count him three."

"He made 10 of 10 shots and 3 of 3 three-pointers. He hasn't missed a single shot today. Yao is crazy tonight. This is the Eastern Conference Finals!"

"Old K, Yao may score 50+ today!"

"Impossible, his offense doesn't have that explosive power."

An hour later, there was a lot of yelling and shouting in the bar.

The Army Aviation Arena is in full swing, the Nets are playing against the Pistons, and the atmosphere is very hot.

Dayao came out to shoot. Although Daben followed up in time, facing a super high fort, there was no way to defend, and small moves were useless, because today Dayao's hand feeling exploded.

In the 11th minute of the second quarter, he made 11 of 11 shots and 2 of 2 free throws, including 3 three-pointers, and has scored 27 points.

After the second quarter, the Nets led the Pistons by 16 points at halftime, a great advantage.

Soon after, the second half began.

Dayao's hand feeling declined slightly, and he missed the first three-pointer in the third quarter. He immediately shortened the range and started another round of bombardment with a mid-range shot.

Kidd crazily provided Yao with ammunition, and Dayao shot crazily. He took as many as 9 shots in the third quarter, hit 6 of them, and made 3 of 3 free throws. He scored 15 points in a single quarter and 42 points in three quarters.

But the Pistons did not surrender, and wanted to take advantage of Dayao's decline in physical fitness in the final quarter to make a comeback. However, under the leadership of Kidd, the Nets maintained their advantage in the score and successfully won the G2 game, drawing a one-to-one tie with the Pistons.

大姚总共上场41分钟，23投18中，命中率高达78.2%，三分球4投3中，加上7罚7中，全场轰下46分8篮板2助攻3盖帽1失误3犯规的豪华数据。

"Dayao, such a good opportunity, you actually only took 3 shots in the last quarter, isn't 50+ good?" Pharaoh Wang called after the game and asked.

"50+ is of course good, but winning is the first!" Dayao said.

"Fart! With so many leads, it's guaranteed to win. What are you afraid of? Kidd passed you the ball and asked you to shoot, and you passed it again. Are you out of your mind? Don't miss the opportunity next time. 46 points and 50+ points are completely different. 50+ points in the Eastern Conference Finals is an honor, but 46 points are nothing."

"Understood, brother, I won't miss it next time." Dayao said hastily.

"Do you think such a good touch is easy to touch?" Old Wang said angrily.

"Don't worry, brother, there will definitely be a chance."

Dayao also felt a little regretful. Kidd was indeed passing the ball to him later, just to let him score points, but he was worried that he would be accused of scoring points.

Just after hanging up the phone, Kidd next to him said, "Did K tell you?"

Dayao nodded, then shook his head regretfully.

Kidd said: "I feel sorry for you, such a good opportunity."

Speaking of which, he leaned over, motioned Dayao to bend his ear, and said in a low voice, "Old K is the most knowledgeable about stats. He is the strongest stats king in the history of the league other than Chamberlain. He averaged 50 points per game against Jordan in the finals, and his stats can make people speechless. Yao, you have to learn a little bit. If you learn [-]% of his stat skills, you can be famous in history."

"Pfft!"

Dayao burst out laughing, overjoyed.

"Ah!"

Lao Wang sneezed and muttered, "Which bastard is speaking ill of me behind my back?"

"Ah!"

This time it was Kidd's turn to sneeze.
