Chapter 317 Jordan's confusion

Zhang Lili praised: "Now this McGrady has matured, and he has begun to look a bit like Pippen. Pippen is this kind of game that rushes in with the ball to attract double-teams, and then passes the ball to Jordan after encountering the defense.

And McGrady's offensive ability with the ball is now stronger than Pippen, so his threat when holding the ball has surpassed Pippen. The Bulls have indeed cultivated the next generation of offensive core. "

Sun Zhenping said: "McGrady's ability to attack with the ball is indeed better than that of Pippen, which makes him more selective after rushing in, making it more difficult for opponents to defend."

Zhang Lili said: "Let Barkley and Dazhi start, the Knicks did sacrifice some inside defensive strength, especially Oakley and Rasheed Wallace can be pulled out, now the Knicks rely on Zhao Dong alone in the paint area It's a bit difficult to protect people, and the Bulls should continue to rush in to play in the future, let's see if Old Nelson will adjust the lineup."

Knicks attack.

Zhao Dong still sits directly under the dotted line of the free throw line, so he is not restricted by Article 136 of the Dragon Rule.

Of course, he will sacrifice part of his impact in this way, and if he loses, he must gain. His position has been closer to the basket from the beginning, so in terms of threat, he is no less than outside.

McGrady single-handedly defended against Zhao Dong, and his mobility could keep up with the latter, but his strength and tonnage were very different. This time, he was knocked away by Zhao Dong's crushing breakthrough.

Rasheed Wallace came up to defend and moved in immediately, but this time Oakley, who was in the low position on the right wing, quickly defended and filled the gap under the basket. If Zhao Dong wanted to pass the ball, he could only pull the ball to the right wing. Barkley out.

But he didn't give it to Barkley at the first time, because the first choice of this tactic is to attack at the basket, and attack near the basket, followed by mid-range offense.

He pushed with one hand, made another ground pass, and made it to the basket.

Under the basket, as big as the back to Oakley to catch the ball.

The next moment, Rasheed Wallace turned around very quickly and rushed to the basket.

At the same time, Zhao Dong followed up.

Da Zhi relied on Oakley to dribble the ball, and was about to stand up and make a small sideways hook, when Rasheed jumped in front of him, trying to grab his ball.

He quickly got up with the ball, and Rasheed Wallace's hand was also on the ball.

He turned around sharply, and hit Rasheed Wallace hard on the right shoulder with his left elbow, and then hit the latter's right cheek after brushing past, hitting Rasheed Wallace hard With a grunt of pain, he took half a step back. In order to avoid his right elbow, Oakley also dodged backwards. Through this ball protection action, he got some space instead.

The next moment, Dazhi's body was in the same shape, and with a bang, he completed a two-handed dunk under the basket.

"Shet!"

Rasheed Wallace, whose right cheek was flushed, rubbed his face, glanced at Zhao Dong who was staring at him coldly, gritted his teeth, turned and ran to the front court.

"Just fight like this, be strong, it doesn't matter if you can't get in, they won't dare to let you go if you can't get in." Zhao Dong encouraged.

"Ah."

Dazhi nodded heavily with his mouth tightly shut.

"Beautiful, as big as a double-team dunk." Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

"One vs two, two top defensive champions, they played well." Sun Zhenping praised with a smile.

Bulls attack.

The inside line was completely pulled out, McGrady ran on the left wing, and suddenly ran back and cut into the paint.

At this time, Kidd passed a very penetrating through ball and passed it from Zhao Dong.

McGrady rushed into the paint after receiving the ball, but Zhao Dongxie was unable to guard against it. At this time, there was no one under the basket, so he flew up and was about to smash and dunk the basket.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Dong flew up from behind McGrady and successfully put back his cap.

The ball fell, he took off for the second time, caught the ball, and then passed it out immediately.

"Block the flying dragon!"

Phil Jackson yelled at Zhao Dong who was about to launch a fast break.

McGrady turned around and grabbed Zhao Dong's jersey, and then let go quickly to avoid being watched by the referee.

When Zhao Dong started again, Rasheed Wallace had already stood in front of him, and the chance to get off quickly was gone.

In the frontcourt, Billups rushed to the basket with the ball, the madman followed up on the left wing, and Kidd and Jordan chased and defended beside them.

Barkley and Dazhi followed behind, not much slower, and when Billups rushed into the paint, the two of them also reached the three-point line.

Barkley had Oakley by his side, so much so that there was none. Rasheed Wallace went to stop Zhao Dong from going down quickly, and he was still a few steps behind, just past the center line.

At this time, Billups stopped suddenly and slowed down, and pulled to the left wing. Seeing Dazhi rushing down from the top of the arc, he quickly pushed with one hand and passed it.

As big as catching the ball with both hands after crossing the free throw line, and then going a step further, facing the empty basket is a one-handed dunk.

"boom!"

The Bulls' basket was blown.

"ah!"

Excited Dazhi roared happily, and then clapped Billups in celebration.

16:8, the Knicks lead away by 8 point.

"Beautiful! As big as the fast break, he completed a dunk." Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.

"He made 4 of 4 shots and scored 8 points. He scored half of the Knicks' points alone. Zhao Dong made 2 of 2 shots and scored 4 points. He also had 2 blocks and 4 assists. The 5-on-[-] at the basket should not count as an assist, otherwise it would be [-] assists." Zhang Heidean said.

"Today, the Knicks' attack at the rim has come out, the efficiency is too high, and they haven't missed yet!" Sun Zhenping said excitedly.

The Bulls attacked, and Jordan hit a mid-range shot again.

16:10, the Bulls are still 6 points behind.

Hubie Brown shook his head and said, "Michael Jordan is now 6 of 5 from the field, scoring all the Bulls' points, with a very high shooting percentage, only missing one.

However, he has a very heavy task on the defensive end, and he has to take care of all the scoring tasks on the offensive end. Given his age, how long can he last? "

"That's a problem," Cook said.

Hubie Brown nodded and said: "The Knicks didn't double-team Jordan at all today. I think the purpose of their defensive tactics is to force the Bulls to give the ball to Jordan and consume a lot of his physical energy. I think the Knicks have reached their goal. Defensive tactical objectives."

At this time the Knicks attacked.

Rasheed Wallace no longer dared to zoom in. When Zhao Dong broke through with the ball and Da Zhi moved to the basket, he chose to keep up with Da Zhi.

In this way, Zhao Dong made an emergency stop at the left waist in the paint area, jumped up in front of Jordan, and hit the ball with ease.

"A guy can never guard a dragon near the basket. He shoots a horrific 75 percent of his shots here. I mean one-on-one defense, so the Bulls have to have at least two people on the dragon in this near-the-basket area. double-team."

Hubie Brown said in a very sure tone.

Cook immediately added a sentence that made Bulls fans listen to despair, he said: "In this area, double-teamed, his strongest hit rate is 65%, which is the best in the league.

At present, in the league, this near-basket area, that is, the shooting percentage ranking of nearly two points, No. 2 is Tim Duncan, with a single-defense shooting percentage of 52%, and a double-team shooting percentage of 43%, which is very different. "

Looking back, Jordan missed a shot, the Knicks attacked, Rasheed Wallace faced Zhao Dong's breakthrough with the ball, chose to double-team with Jordan, and then Zhao Dong passed the ball to Dazhi.

Dazhi caught the ball, swung it left and right, shook Oakley, and then made an easy layup.

Zhao Dong couldn't help but nodded as he watched Dazhi score the goal.

The Dazhi of this life, when his defensive attitude comes up, is really more than one level stronger than the Dazhi of the previous life. After playing for one or two seasons, he can completely become a first-class center in the league.

However, it is best to increase the weight to 120 kg, so that the ability to move will not be weakened much, and the ability to fight will be stronger.

The increase in confrontation ability is conducive to enhancing the quality of low-post offense. For a center forward, low-post offense is the most important.

"20:10, the point difference has reached double digits, it is now the 6th minute of the first quarter, and the half quarter has just passed."

Zhang Lili said excitedly: "Look, this is the effect of Zhao Dong and an offensive center cooperating in the paint. The attack firepower of the type combination is too strong!"

Sun Zhenping suddenly said, "That's why the Spurs Twin Towers have the second-best record in the league this season. How does their combination compete with Da Zhi and Zhao Dong?"

Zhang Lili was stunned, and then smiled wryly: "Mr. Sun, your question is too right. Compared with the combination of the Spurs Twin Towers and Zhao Dongdazhi, the deterrence should be stronger. But what is the specific situation? You'll know later."

On the next Bulls attack, Jordan broke through and passed the ball to Rasheed, who hit a jumper over David's head.

Looking back, the Knicks are still the old tactics, just hit the basket.

But this time Dazhi and Barkley switched. He hit five in a row, and Barkley didn't hit one, so he covered him.

Similarly, Zhao Dong attracted double-teams from outside the paint, allowing Barkley to single-play Oakley under the basket. Under the magic of his big butt, Oakley, who was not enough tonnage, couldn't stand up, and then turned around and made a dunk.

Looking back, McGrady missed a shot and the Knicks attacked.

Barkley took the ball again at the basket, and Rashid returned to the basket. The former passed the ball with a backhand and gave it to Da Zhi, who was behind him in the low position on the right wing.

Unguarded, Dazhi took a step forward after receiving the ball, took off and shot two meters away from the basket, and hit another goal.

So far, the Knicks' offense has all been completed. Although their own offense is also playing well, Phil Jackson called a timeout.

"24:12, the score doubled, the ball is no longer playable, the Bulls' defensive tactics have completely failed, there is no successful defense, Phil Jackson must change the defensive tactics."

Hubie Brown shook his head.

"Yes, the Knicks can still shoot 100% when Jordan consumes a lot of physical energy. If this situation continues, once Jordan's physical energy collapses, the Bulls will usher in a big defeat. You know, the dragon has not On the offensive end, he just breaks through the pass, attracts the defense, and doesn't play much at all." Cook said.

Hubie Brown said: "The Knicks' tactic is too strong. The old Nelson not only made full use of the dragon's offensive ability, pass assist ability, breakthrough ability with the ball, and ability to attract double-teams, etc., but also made full use of the king's ability. And Barkley's offensive ability.

At the same time, he targeted the Bulls' weakness of not having enough height inside, and played Wang's height at the basket.

I thought Barkley would be the main attacker at the basket, but no, it is Wang. He has an absolute height advantage at the basket, his movement is good, and he has a certain ability to confront. His performance today is worthy of the Knicks. Mobley traded his pick. "

Cook laughed: "An offensive insider, as long as he does not become a defensive hole, then his value will always be higher than an outside player.

Although the rookie Mobley is not bad, he is still a pretty good guard. He has some potential, but there are many people who can be replaced. The league will never lack such outside players, but it will always lack good inside players. Besides, this is an eternal truth. "

"Unless the outside line is a guy at the level of Jordan or Dragon." Hubie Brown laughed.

"But it was chosen a hundred times. In [-], Olajuwon was the No. [-] pick." Cook shook his head and laughed.

During the live broadcast of CCTV, Zhang Reasonable analyzed: "There must be something wrong with the Bulls' defense now. After McGrady was attacked, he was not used. There is no double-teaming power.

Now the Bulls should take advantage of McGrady's defense. After he is attacked by Zhao Dong, as long as Rasheed Wallace makes up the defense in advance and blocks Zhao Dong, McGrady can completely double-team Zhao Dong, so that Jordan can be free. Go directly to the basket and double-team Oakley. "

"Eh, it seems to be really possible." Sun Zhenping said.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Because Phil Jackson's defensive strategy is not clear, when Rasheed Wallace defended against Zhao Dong, he was a little overwhelmed, and he fell behind at both ends.

He can either follow up with Dazhi and let Jordan and McGrady double-team Zhao Dong, or defend Zhao Dong in advance and let Jordan double-team Dazhi. Now both ends are lost and neither end is defended. "

On the Bulls bench, the atmosphere was very oppressive.

At the beginning, Jordan scored a few goals in a row, and when the point difference was not too big, he still felt nothing, but now with this score, no matter how strong his will is, there is a shadow in his heart.

He even felt a little unbelievable, why did his team fall behind so much when Zhao Dong didn't attack vigorously?Why did the Knicks play such a high-quality inside offense?Isn't your team's interior defense top-notch?
He looked at Phil Jackson who was squatting in front of him in a daze, and asked, "Phil, we have to find a way to change. We can't continue playing like this. Most of them attack at the basket, and the rest are nearly two points." , The efficiency is too high, and the defense at the basket must be strengthened."

Phil Jackson has a sense of powerlessness in his heart. He also wants to change this situation and strengthen the defense around the basket, but what can he do when Zhao Dong is on the edge of the paint?
The limited defensive force can only focus on Zhao Dong, and the remaining defensive force, how can it prevent Wang and Barkley from attacking the basket?
Especially the king on the offensive end, has a high advantage in the basket, has a certain confrontation ability, has a good pace around the basket, and has a variety of comprehensive low-post offensive skills. Defense has advantages, and it is difficult for such a person to defend him alone.

"Ugh!"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing secretly. If he had known this before, he should not have traded at the beginning. No, he should be given some opportunities to play. manner.

"Underestimate him!"

In that way, the headache now will not be the Bulls, but the Knicks.

The timeout ended, the Bulls attacked, and Jordan scored again.

Knicks attack.

Zhao Dong set up for the ball under the dotted line of the free throw line on the left wing.

This time, on his drive, Rasheed Wallace came up from the low post to defend the interception, and Jordan went straight to the basket from above.

It turned out that the defensive strategy of the Bulls interview was to let Rasheed Wallace speed up the defensive speed, and McGrady, who was attacked, flanked Zhao Dong back and forth on the edge of the paint area, and at the basket, Jordan and Oakley, who was back on defense, confronted each other. Big enough to double-team.

When Zhao Dong reached the left midfielder in the paint with the ball, the Bulls played a double-team tactic and emptied two Knicks players at the same time, one was Barkley who was pulled to the low post on the right wing, and the other was Billups , only the madman was followed by Kidd.

Phil Jackson's defensive choice is to put it outside while double-teaming Zhao Dong and Dazhi under the basket.

Zhao Dong was very calm. When he was about to double-team his upper body, he stopped suddenly, then pulled the ball up from the floor, and jumped up with the ball.

But with just one pull of the ball, McGrady caught up from behind and flew to block the shot.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Donggang's shot was slapped.

"yeah!"

Seeing McGrady backing Zhao Dong, the audience cheered wildly.

At this time, the ball is not dead, it is slapped into the sky and is falling.

After Zhao Dong landed, he got stuck immediately, turned around, and got stuck in front of the roaring Tianzun. At this time, the ball fell from above, and he and McGrady took off at the same time.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Dong intentionally bumped into McGrady in the air, the latter's tonnage and strength were not enough, the balance immediately lost, and he successfully snatched the basketball.

At this time, Jordan and Oakley, who were double-teamed under the basket, had already rushed over. When Zhao Dong just landed, he was double-teamed by three people, and then McGrady came up, forming a four-team team, leaving only the outside Kidd alone.

This is the defensive tactic that Phil Jackson just formulated. If there is a chance, multiple people will be double-teamed on the ball holder in the paint area, and even the four-in-one in Jordan's law can be implemented.

Jordan, McGrady, Oakley, Rasheed Wallace, and even the second-year McGrady has grown into a first-class defensive champion, and the other three are all top defensive champions. These four people surround Zhao Dong, even if None of them were heavy insiders, but even if O'Neill was surrounded by these four, he couldn't get out.

Zhao Dong was surrounded tightly, so he bent down, covered the basketball with his hands, between his chest and abdomen, turned around and swung his elbows continuously, and used his elbows to repeatedly sweep to protect the ball.

In this way, although he couldn't rush out, but the four Bulls wanted to grab the ball from him, and it was difficult to succeed for a while.

"Oh!"

He received an elbow on the back of his back, and then another hard elbow, the force was so great that his body stiffened involuntarily.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jordan and McGrady, who were in front of him, moved up with four big hands and knocked his ball away. Then Jordan grabbed the ball and turned around immediately.

Zhao Dong wanted to chase, but was blocked by Oakley again.

After rushing into the paint area, Jordan flew up, attracting the defense of Madman and Billups, and then made a back pass in the air without looking at people, and gave it to McGrady who followed up behind him.

"boom!"

McGrady caught the ball and jumped up, flying to the basket.

"Oh, ho ho, T-mac, the flying dragon with the hat on his back, sent out another tomahawk-style snap. He is our new star..." The roar of the on-site commentator sounded in the United Center arena.

"yeah!"

McGrady's big hat speeded up the dunk, and it was Zhao Dong who hated it, and the Bulls fans in the audience were excited.

It was too late for Zhao Dong to catch up to the top of the arc, so he could only turn around.

He glanced at Oakley, who was also turning around. The latter didn't speak, but shook his head slightly.

Zhao Dong understood that it was Rasheed Wallace who elbowed him.

"Special!"

If the two elbowed down when they were facing each other, he didn't blame Rasheed Wallace, because this is the style now.

But when the four of them double-teamed him, they still bent their elbows, and their strength was not small, and they even bent their elbows behind their backs, two elbows in a row, which made him angry.

At 24:16, the Bulls were only 8 points behind, and the Knicks attacked.
