Starting from the last bus in the NBA

Chapter 178 The Final Battle 2
After flying Wang Hao to break through, Mario seems to have found a chance, and he has to shoot directly from the middle distance.

"Mario!"

Suddenly, a fierce voice sounded, and it was Duncan, who was stuck on the inside line, roaring.

"Be careful behind!"

It goes without saying that there must be someone behind him.

In fact, Mario had already felt it, a black shadow rushed up from behind, quite a feeling of being overwhelmed by Mount Tai.

That's right, it was Wang Hao!
After Wang Hao double-teamed Duncan and returned to defense, he had already realized that Mario might have made a false shot.

Therefore, when he pounced to block the shot, he actually had some energy left, and only then did he have a chance to catch up again.

As for why he could guess Mario's thoughts, there are not so many reasons, it's just experience.

Although it was only one season of NBA experience, he still gained a lot of experience.

If you don't make any progress, wouldn't you be sorry for the hang on your body.

What's more, don't look at who his learning object is, the best defensive guard in the NBA.

Of course, apart from experience, what is more important is physical condition, especially speed.

Mario also has experience, but his old body has made it difficult for him to complete many actions.

On the other hand, Wang Hao, after his speed has increased to over 80, although he is not considered the top speed in the NBA, he is not slow either.

It has to be said that Mario, as an old comrade, is still very experienced and made a choice immediately.

He didn't insist on completing all the shots, but chose to shoot directly.

That's right, this will affect the hit rate, but if you don't do this, what awaits him is likely to be a big hot pot.

As for affecting the hit rate, this also means that there is still a chance to score.

What's more, even if you can't score a goal, you still have rebounds!

It's a pity that the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.

Horace has indeed lived up to the past, but defense really doesn't value physical fitness so much.

Especially inside, if the position is successfully blocked, half a rebound has already been grabbed.

As for the other half of the rebound, it depends on luck and in which direction the basketball bounces.

After all, it is a home game, and the Sonics are lucky.

Horace protected the rebound and found Gary Payton immediately, and Gary Payton immediately accelerated.

It's a pity that, as one of the best defensive teams in the league, the Spurs are not muddled.

More reasonable, the entire series has played four games, and they have worked hard to prevent counterattacks.

If there is no counterattack, it can only be a positional war.

During the positional battle, Gary Payton took advantage of the Spurs' unstable foothold and directly chose to break through.

Just in order not to give the Spurs a chance to help defend, he pushed Johnson directly into the inside from the right.

This is also the key tactic of the Sonics in this game.

In order to prevent the Sonics from speeding up in offensive and defensive transitions, Johnson led the defense of Gary Payton every time.

No way, at this moment, he is the closest person to Gary Payton.

In this case, every time you have to wait to switch defenses, they have already fought back.

Just this time, Mario failed to complete the defense change immediately, which gave Gary Payton a chance.

Yes, on the defensive end, the Spurs have made huge adjustments since the last game.

Johnson is responsible for marking Ruben Patterson, who lacks the ability to attack independently, Mario switches to defending Gary Payton, and as for Wang Hao, it is Elliott marking.

In the last game, Gary Payton's performance was abnormal, which was also related to the Spurs' targeting.

Taking advantage of the fact that the defense did not come back, Gary Payton would naturally not be polite and directly hit hard.

I have to say that Gary Payton chose a good time. Duncan had just stepped inside and had no time to help defend.

However, Leaning on Johnson's shot missed.

Gary Payton patted his head in great annoyance. This opportunity was so rare that he failed to score the ball.

When it's the Spurs' turn to attack, they still focus on the inside, which is to be expected.

The Spurs' offense must be launched from the inside. Only in this way can they have a higher success rate.

In terms of defense, the Sonics still resolutely implement the double-team tactics, and easily do not give the inside singles a chance.

As for letting go of the outside line, what should I do?
What else can be done, if this is the case, then it is only natural that the supersonic speed will be killed.

Sure enough, just as Duncan was about to ask for the ball, the Supersonics had already double-teamed ahead of time and didn't give him a chance at all.

Johnson didn't stand still, and immediately transferred the ball to the wing, successfully giving the ball to the inside.

David Robinson holds the ball and Ruben Patterson tries to double-team.

It has to be said that after using the same tactics many times, everyone can deal with it very well.

Whether it's the Spurs' combination of inside and outside lines, or the Supersonics' double-team tactics, everyone is very familiar with it.

No, Ruben Patterson was just about to double-team, and David Robinson had already returned the ball to Elliott.

Ruben Patterson, on the other hand, seemed to have expected this for a long time, and was already preparing to retreat halfway through the double-teaming.

Elliott seized the fleeting opportunity, made a breakthrough from beyond the three-point line, and directly shot a high jumper.

Seeing this scene, Wang Hao was speechless.

What the fuck, you're almost shooting from the [-]-point line, so you can't take a step back?
Just take such a step back, how much impact will it have on the hit rate?

But once the ball is scored, it will take one more point!

No way, this is the limitation of this era, the existence of three-pointers is not particularly meaningful.

Especially those old-school exchanges, they don't have a good impression of the sense of three-pointers.

In addition to defending to win the championship, there is another saying, the winner of the mid-range shot wins the world!

Otherwise, with Jordan's talent, why was he able to practice unsolvable mid-range shots, but he was shamed in the three-point contest?
As for the reason of talent, Wang Hao absolutely does not believe it.

It can only be said that in that era, the NBA did not pay enough attention to three-pointers.

Under such circumstances, even Jordan cannot pay too much attention to three-pointers.

The high two-pointer, which is Elliott's shooting hotspot, still didn't work out.

In this way, it is very difficult for both sides to come and go.

After the baptism of the four games, the two sides are already very familiar with each other. It can be said that you know my strengths and weaknesses, and I know your depth.

Moreover, the four fierce battles, both physically and mentally, are already very exhausting.

Under such circumstances, the effect of conventional routines is already very small.

But if you want to talk about unconventional means, in the atmosphere of the fifth battle of life and death, can these role players hold up?

首节比赛已经进行了6分24秒，超音速以10：9，领先着1分。

I have to say that this score is embarrassing.

Neither side can do anything to the other. To put it another way, no one can break the deadlock.

Conventional tactics don't work, and unconventional personnel are unreliable. In this case, it depends on who can break the deadlock.
