Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 100 [Shrek Fighting Sharks]

The game continued. After Arenas made a breakthrough, he attracted Yao Ming's defense and handed the ball to O'Neal at the basket. "The Shark" dunked with both hands and scored. 2 to 2.

McGrady transferred the ball to Yao Ming, and Yao Ming turned around and hit a jumper. This time, his touch was very soft, and O'Neal couldn't help it. 4 to 2.

The Eastern offense still gave the ball to O'Neal. O'Neal squeezed into the three-second zone to catch the ball, turned around and made a half-hook, and scored again. 4 to 4.O'Neill smiled and waved to the audience to cheer more enthusiastically. At this time, he seemed to have regained his youth.

West also hit the ball to Yao Ming again, Yao Ming turned around and made a jumper and scored again. 6 to 4.

As soon as this game came up, it became a "Yao Shark Showdown".Yao Ming relies on his height advantage, while O'Neal relies on his body. The two have different styles, and neither can guard the other.

Comparing the starting lineups of the two sides, the strength is almost the same. The outside lines are all super scorers. The two coaches have arranged a three-two defense.

The advantage of zone defense is that the distribution of players is relatively balanced, the movement distance is short, it is easy to cooperate with each other, and it is also conducive to rebounding and launching fast breaks.Weaknesses lie in the 30-45 degree angle and the basket.

Tracy McGrady and Hayes moved at 45-degree angles outside the three-point line on both sides, which attracted the defenders of the zone defense. As long as someone came to defend, Yao Ming would have a chance to play singles. Yao Ming's singles ability is trustworthy.

What's interesting is that the situation of the eastern stars is exactly the same. Wade and James will encounter help defenses when they break through, so they choose O'Neal as the offensive point.

O'Neal once again received a point and scored an inside jumper, turning the score 6-6.

Garnett said to Hayes: "Chuck, you can switch positions with me later, go inside to resist O'Neal, and Yao Fangbosh will be easier. Disrupt their rhythm."

"Received." Hayes said, the runner received a pass from McGrady, and bypassed James with Garnett's pick-and-roll.

Bosh made up defense, Hayes dribbled the ball while jumping with both feet, made a disguised jump to pass Bosh, O'Neal made up the defense, Hayes made a false shot and passed to Yao Ming, Yao Ming dunked the basketball with one hand and scored, 8 6.

Yao Ming scored 6 points in a row, smiling very happily.When returning to defense, Hayes retreated to the inside and said, "Brother Ming, change positions. I will guard Shaker."

Yao Ming stared at Bosh without saying a word. No one believed in Hayes' strength more than him.

Hayes resisted O'Neal outside the three-second zone.This is the first real confrontation between the two. Both are very strong, but Hayes is a circle smaller than O'Neill. People who like Hayes are sweating for him, and more people are laughed out.Back then, Mourning, who was 208 cm, had a big gap in his defense against O'Neal. Now that Hayes is defending, in their view, he is simply a guard defending a center and sending points to the West.

O'Neill didn't think so. He failed to enter the three-second zone after several attempts. Hayes' footwork was much more stable than Yao Ming's.Only then did he realize that apart from Ben Wallace, there were still smaller players in the league who could resist him with brute force.And Hayes is shorter than Wallace.

He played singles against Yao Ming O'Neal. If he chose to pass the ball against Hayes, who is the height of the guard, O'Neal felt very embarrassed.So although he was uncomfortable with the resistance, he still chose to turn to the middle and shoot a hook shot. Under the interference of Hayes, the ball missed.

Yao Ming took the backcourt rebound and immediately handed it over to Kobe for a fast break.Bryant dribbled the ball across half court to Tracy McGrady, who in turn passed to Garnett, who followed up.Garnett caught the ball and performed his own stunt, stepping back and jumping back, avoiding Bosh's block, and hitting two points steadily. 10 to 6.

"Pass the ball to me! I'll take care of this kid." O'Neill yelled at Wade and Arenas. He was a little angry. In this game, Hayes had trouble with him again.

"Come and try. If you want to enter the three-second zone, unless you put me down." Hayes said.

"Damn, why does my child like you? You hate the guy." O'Neill said, Arenas's pass arrived.

Hayes still used his body to resist O'Neal. This time O'Neal turned to the baseline and shot, but he missed the basket. He could only bet on his touch, and the ball missed again. Garnett protected the rebound.

O'Neal was so angry that he didn't know what to say.Hayes wasn't feeling well either, he couldn't breathe because of O'Neill's big ass.Although the current O'Neill has passed his peak, but the tonnage is there, it is not a joke.

The first defense was a coincidence, and the second time was strength. "Big Shark" scored 226 points in a row in front of the 6cm giant Yao Ming, but he couldn't handle the 198cm tall Hayes.The audience was all stunned, and many people forgot to cheer and applaud.

The West once again played exquisite cooperation. Hayes and Garnett continued to make off-ball pick-and-rolls for their teammates. Kobe ran out of the outside and hit a three-pointer, 11 to 6.

The East gave up on O'Neal.James used the pick-and-roll to break through, Hayes was a little slower to make up the defense, James rushed into the inside, and dunked the ball with one hand. 11 to 8.

Turning from defense to offense, Hayes gave Kobe a pick-and-roll. After Kobe broke through, he attracted a double-team and passed the ball back to Hayes. Hayes faced Wade's defense and scored with a fadeaway jumper. 13 to 8.

O'Neal's eyes lit up, and he opened his hands for the ball. Wade had to pass the ball again in order to take care of his teammates.O'Neill pressed his body lower this time and used all his strength, but no matter how low he was, he was still a big man. Hayes bent his waist and became 180cm, and his legs seemed to be stuck on the ground. The two are now like Two strong wrestlers.O'Neal was slightly better, but not enough to get him to the rim.

In the end, O'Neal could only shoot from the edge of the three-second zone. Hayes couldn't block him, but he didn't score.Garnett came up with the strength of the rebounding king, took the rebound again, and passed the ball to Kobe.Another good way to break the zone defense is to break fast when the opponent is not in position.Kobe handed over the frontcourt to McGrady, and McGrady pulled up from outside the three-point line and shot, and the ball hit again. 16 to 8.

The stars in the Eastern Conference have no good way to break the zone defense during this time. In the Western Conference, Yao Ming controls the basket and Hayes resists O'Neal.Bosh can only be pulled out and play as a small forward.He catches the ball in the high post and misses mid-range shots.Shaquille O'Neal was annoyed by the card position, pushed Hayes while grabbing a rebound, and was called a foul.

The Western Stars attacked again, and Kobe ran out of space relying on off-ball pick-and-rolls.Hayes hit the ground pass to Bryant, Bryant reached the basket on the weak side, pull back buckle succeeded.

18 to 8.With the West leading by 10 points, Eddie Jordan requested a timeout.

Black Mamba, a beautiful and dangerous creature, as long as there is a little chance, the Black Mamba can kill the opponent, just like Kobe now.

"Pretty!"

"Good buckle!"

Hayes and Kobe started to fight and clapped their hands hard.When they were rivals, they didn't like each other at all, but when they became teammates, they both felt that the other was reliable, which was very contradictory.

Kobe had to admit that Hayes had a fierce defense, he could defend him and James from the outside, and he could resist O'Neal in the paint. He couldn't think of anyone else in the league with such a guy.

Hayes also had a new understanding of Kobe, and he began to feel that the world misunderstood Kobe.People always say that Kobe plays alone, has no teammates in his eyes, and doesn't pass the ball.But during this period of time, Kobe played very reasonably. If his teammates had the opportunity, he would definitely pass. After he attracted double-teams, his teammates could also get many opportunities.And as long as there is space or one-on-one, Kobe's shooting rate is very reliable.If the Lakers do not pass the ball, maybe it is really a teammate problem. Besides Odom, who is the Lakers trustworthy?Odom also often turns into a blacksmith, and occasionally he will send out the ball of the gods...

Kobe is strong.His biggest problem is that people like to compare him to Jordan too much.Who can compare to Jordan at the shooting guard position?People are asking too much of Kobe.If Kobe is one of the top five shooting guards in NBA history, no one will question it.

Since Hayes met O'Neal, Reggie Miller's mouth has not stopped in the commentary booth.Barkley, the faithful "Haimi", could only chime in.

Reggie Miller said: "This is the most exaggerated defense I've seen this season. Hayes defended O'Neal three times. Irvine (Johnson), were you so fierce when you played center in your rookie season?"

"At that time, if I was facing O'Neal, I would definitely be over. Hayes is unbelievably strong, Charles, I think he is stronger than when you were young." "Magic" Johnson laughed: "And he His passing awareness is very good, and the ball he gave Kobe just now is just right. It’s just that his movement is a bit stiff when passing the ball. If he can practice well, he has potential. Hayes is definitely a person who can play point guard.”

"He's a waste of his size to play point guard," Barkley laughs.

"I don't want him to play as a point guard. Point forwards like Odom and James are popular now. If Hayes strengthens his passing, he can play a small forward in offense. I plan to find him after the game. Tell him what you think," Johnson said.

"If you have nothing to do, just go and be his assistant coach. I heard that he is practicing passing recently." Barkley suggested.

"Yeah, if you go coach, maybe there will be a superstar in the league. He's pretty good now, if he can learn your pass...I'd love to know if it's possible to have Robertson in the league now That kind of guy. LeBron is very complete, but the rebounds are 10. Chuck seems to be closer to a triple-double than him.” Kenny Smith also suggested.

"Hearing you say that, I also want to see him develop. Hayes is a very interesting player." Reggie Miller laughed.

"I'm really fine, ask him after the game, maybe he doesn't want me to be an assistant coach yet." Johnson laughed.The world knew he had AIDS, and he thought Hayes might take that into account.

Johnson was overthinking.Hayes' passing has not improved. If he knew that Johnson was going to teach him, he must be as happy as taking a stimulant.
