NBA: Best point guard

It's not that coach An Zuo is small-minded, but that in the minds of old-school coaches, players who can only shoot three-pointers have no future.

But with Brown's rapid growth, coach Anzuo's concept has changed.

Brown's speed and strength are improving rapidly.

Especially defensively, he is highly motivated and has a very good attitude.

Coaches love players like this the most.

During the intermission, Zhao Qiang told his teammates not to relax. In the second half, they must double-team Miner, and at the same time, other players should be more active in assisting defense.

……

In the Panthers locker room, there was dead silence.

Just now, Miner and Antoine quarreled openly, which destroyed the harmony of the team.

If there are two bench players, it's easy to handle. Let the old players adjust and it will be fine.

But Miner is the core player of the team, who would dare to persuade others!

Miner seemed to be still angry, squinting at Antoine, as if he still wanted to quarrel.

Antoine was a little scared, he had no choice but to bow his head under the eaves.

He coughed, walked up to Miner, and stretched out his hand: "Miner, I was wrong, there were too many people outside just now, I apologize to you, I'm sorry!"

Although Miner was very arrogant, Antoine said so, he still reached out his hand, shook hands with Antoine, and said, "It's okay, let's play hard in the second half, we must turn over!"

"Yes, it must be turned over!"

"The Panthers must win!"

"Kill the cavalry!"

……

After all, they are all young and vigorous young men, there is no such a big conflict, and it will be fine if they talk about it.

The second half of the game began.

Zhao Qiang observed the state of the players on the opposite side, and found that Ryan Miner walked out with Antoine shoulder to shoulder.

"These two reconciled? Very fast!"

Zhao Qiang had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, after the start of the second half, Miner played a dominant performance.

In just 3 minutes of the opening game, he scored 10 points in four consecutive hits, two of which were 2+1!

The double-teaming of the big black dragon didn't seem to have any effect.

What's even more frightening is that Big Ben has already fouled 4 times, so he can only be replaced by rest and replaced by substitute center Chris.

Chris is a white center, and his screen and support are okay, but his bounce and frame protection are too poor.

The advantage the Cavaliers had accumulated in the first half was wiped out within minutes.

Coach Anzuo sighed and called a timeout in advance.

It looks like this miner is back to normal and the cavalry is in danger.

The big black dragon was very annoyed. He felt that his double-teaming was not in place, which made Miner explode.

Coach Anzuo didn't criticize him.

As for Miner's performance just now, let alone the big black dragon, no one can stand it.

Seeing Coach Anzuo's embarrassment, Zhao Qiang was also very anxious.

Zhao Qiang thought for a while, stepped forward to offer advice and said, "Coach, how about this, we will fight against them!"

"Fight to attack?"

In this era, unless you are a Jordan-level player, don't even think about fighting against other big centers.

Because the point of view at that time was that the closer to the basket, the more stable the scoring and the higher the shooting percentage.

The same is true.

Even a super-scorer like Reggie Miller doesn't shoot all the time.

Zhao Qiang went on to say: "I think everyone feels pretty good today. As long as the shot is open, Miner will pounce to defend. In that case, his physical strength will drop!"

Coach An Zuo's eyes lit up, and he felt that it made sense.

The big center is actually fighting hand-to-hand under the basket, which consumes a lot of energy.

As long as he is tired, the power at the basket will be greatly reduced.

Here comes the cavalry's opportunity.

"Okay, let's try it, come on, kids!" Coach An Zuo didn't put too much pressure on them.

After the timeout, the game continues.

The Cavalry replaced Jerome and brought on Brown again.

Zhao Qiang held the ball for half the court, facing the tight defense of the Panthers, he passed the ball to Xiaode.

Xiaode made a three-pointer!

Boom!

Unfortunately, it came out of the basket.

Xiaode shook his head angrily.

Miner easily protected the rebound, passed it to Sean, and he went upfield again.

The Panthers didn't pick up the pace at all, just played positional games and passed the ball to Miner when he was ready.

Miner turned around one and a half, easily got rid of Chris, and scored two points on the board.

In the next few rounds, the Cavalry team felt cold.

And Miner is like a god descending to the earth, playing in the paint like wind and water, calling the wind and calling the rain!

After more than 8 minutes in the second half, the Panthers had already led by 13 points.

The home fans were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that the situation would change suddenly in the second half.

Not only did the Panthers become united, but they played with clarity, and Miner was unstoppable around the rim!

This is how to do?

The 13-point difference is not the most frightening thing. The most frightening thing is that the morale of the cavalry team is very low.

The team has no effective countermeasures at all.

On the other hand, the players of the Panthers, even though they are playing away, are full of momentum.

There is a saying that goes well, winning continuously is the best catalyst for team atmosphere.

The same is true for the NBA.

If the team loses consecutively, there will definitely be conflicts among the players in the locker room.

For a team with a good record, the atmosphere among the players is very harmonious, full of chatter and laughter.

Coach An Zuo could only call a timeout again to let the players relax. Everyone was very frustrated.

Zhao Qiang sat on the side silently, holding his head in his hands, and he was thinking quickly.

This game is crucial for the Cavalry, which is related to whether they can enter the first-level league.

And this is at home, losing is really embarrassing.

But Miner on the opposite side is really clueless, what should I do...

At this time, Zhao Qiang suddenly heard the conversation of his teammates——

"Oh, my hands are so stinky today, I didn't even score a free throw."

"Me too, the CIC just now should have progressed steadily, but who knows that it has come out again..."

penalty?

A light flashed in Zhao Qiang's mind.

Yes, free throws!

Shark hacking tactics!

Several players of the Panthers, except for Miner, the other players are all defensive players with average shooting ability.

Old fans know that the shark hacking tactic was invented by coach Popovich after 2000, and it was mainly aimed at Shaquille O'Neal.

In 1995, no one used this method.

Because this tactic was too shocking at the time, Zhao Qiang didn't dare to tell Coach An Zuo.

He pulled his teammates over and said in a low voice, "You guys will commit few fouls in a while. As long as they attack, they will take the initiative to foul. Focus on those people, Nick, Sean..."

The cavalry players all looked confused, thinking: Is the captain crazy?Do you still play like this?

Take the initiative to send the opponent to the free throw line?

What's the difference between that and suicide?

But Zhao Qiang's prestige is here, and everyone usually obeys Zhao Qiang.

Since he said so, let's do it, anyway, there is no good way now...
