Chapter 529 Sense of Crisis

"You must be joking, let a rookie defend me?" Wallace felt that he was underestimated.

Bai Jidongxiu confirmed his words: "No, Bo Nu is not a rookie, he is a second grader, how about it, does he value you very much? We reluctantly sent a second grader to guard you."

Some people's trash talk is bad, and some people's trash talk is bad and annoying.

Wallace was offended by Bai Jidong's words, "I will make you regret it! This is the worst decision you have ever made!"

Bai Jidong patted Vashabek on the shoulder, "Let him see if we will regret it."

Vashabek stepped forward, confronted Wallace, and said in English with a distinct African accent: "I will not let my teammates and coaches regret making this decision."

The Timberwolves upped the lineup's athleticism, while the Bobcats downsized the lineup's height and talent.

They replaced Gay with Brian Knight, Gay, in order to let Roy return to the second position.

As a result, the matchup was messed up. On the offensive end, Bai Jidong was facing Knight, but on the defensive end, he was facing Roy.

The best thing about Knight is his speed. Short stature is his biggest flaw, but it also gives him the fastest speed.

Battier rarely defended players this small, nor did they guard against their speed.According to a normal matchup, Battier should defend Roy, and now Bai Jidong is defending Roy, so Battier can only defend Knight in a misplaced position.

The size advantage on the defensive end sometimes disappears. If the defense basket breaks through, it will be difficult for the big man to defend against the small man, because the center of gravity is high and the speed is slow.

Knight easily broke through Battier's defense, and his speed made Battier sigh, how could this keep up?
Knight disrupted the Timberwolves' formation and took the opportunity to pass the ball to Roy in the corner.

Bai Jidong was only half a meter away from Roy. Roy's heart was like a rock, he forced his shot and the ball scored.

"You are really bold." Bai Jidong said.

Roy's three-pointer allowed the Bobcats to chase the point difference to 5 points. Jordan stood up from his position and applauded Roy's offense, "White Wolf, aren't you very arrogant? Keep attacking, let me see what you want How to get 60 points!"

It's okay if Qiao Dan didn't say anything, but this remark ignited Bai Jidong's fighting spirit again.

He had no interest in 60 points at all, and once Jordan's trash talk came out, he would get the 60 points no matter what.

"If you want to blame it, blame your boss, I don't care!"

Bai Jidong shouted in a low voice, "You dwarf, you still want to guard against me?"

Knight's defense against Bai Jidong seems to be a disorganized matchup. In fact, this is an adjustment after the Bobcats fully consider it.

The entire Lynx flank, such as Roy, Guy, Wallace and others, although they are tall and talented, their speed cannot keep up with Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong passed them, often in one step.

If you can't even limit the breakthrough, how can you talk about defense?

Although Knight is not tall enough, he is very fast and can keep up with Bai Jidong.

To defend Bai Jidong, one must first limit Bai Jidong's breakthrough, but there is a biggest loophole in this adjustment, that is, Knight's height is really too short.

Facing him, Bai Jidong didn't think about breaking through at all, he just did it.

Knight's defense did not bring any interference to Bai Jidong's shooting, and Bai Jidong shot like an open practice.

There was no disturbance in his heart, because the person standing in front of him was less than 1 meters tall, so he had nothing to worry about.

Knight thought that Bai Jidong would consider his defense no matter what, but the former didn't think about it, and completely regarded him as air.

"If you still let this guy guard me, then I have 38 points now, I will shoot eight more three-pointers, I believe every one will be scored, then I can get 60 points." Said, "If you want to blame, blame your boss, whoever made him talk cheap."

Knight was furious: "Don't bully people too much!"

Battier quickly found the defense guarding Knight and took a big step back.

His size advantage allows him to interfere before Knight pulls up the shot, which is the benefit of height.

Knight's defense was overwhelmed by Bai Jidong first, and now his offense was targeted by defense.He held his breath and wanted to vent it.

Battier was also baiting him to make a shot, "Shoot, dwarf."

"You came from Duke University anyway, why are you as unqualified as that high school student who never went to college?"

Knight said this well, and let the two of them lie down as soon as they opened their mouths.

Bai Jidong became angry from embarrassment, "Dwarf, don't be arrogant, I will continue to score three points on you later!" "Why are you as unqualified as that guy?" Knight said.

In order to freely talk trash like Bai Jidong, Battier took the initiative to abandon his status as a top student at a prestigious university, "The old coach K has already removed me from the Duke basketball fraternity, so I am not a member of Duke. .”

After Battier said that, Knight wanted to say more and threw the ball to Wallace.

"What happens next will be very cruel to you," Wallace said pityingly.

Vashabek was silent, with his hands spread out, his pure black skin looked like a piece of black charcoal in the shape of a human at first glance.

Vashabek and his No. 99 jersey moved with Wallace's start-up breakthrough.

Before attacking, Wallace thought he could easily break Vashabek's defense.

After the attack, he regretted his carelessness.

Vashabek's reaction was extremely fast, and his defensive position was like a second white wolf.His defensive style is the same as Bai Jidong's, with the focus on wrapping words.

His entanglement is more oppressive than that of the White Wolf, and his oppressiveness on the offensive side reminds Wallace of Artest, who has a similar style.

Vashabek bit Wallace's attack, and would not let go no matter what.

Wallace shook continuously, and Vashabek maintained his center of gravity, locking Wallace outside the three-point line.No one thought that Vashabek could do this, and his defense was better than expected.

"It's amazing." Battier felt that his main position was about to be lost.

If the substitute is too good, the position of the main force will not be stable.

From a defensive point of view, Vashabek's defense is worse than Battier's. Considering that he is only a sophomore, coupled with his historical level of physical fitness, with time, he will be a monster on the defensive end.

"Now I know why you call him a honey badger," sighed Spanoulis.

Vashabek's experience is still inexperienced, and he doesn't have enough confrontation, but he has the fierceness of the Rift Valley who dares to compete with lions. As long as he bites the prey, he will not let go.

What came out of his eyes was the desire for the ball, and he wanted to take the ball away from the opponent.

Vashabek used Bai Weidong as a template in many aspects, but his defense was unique.

His defense has a strong personal touch, such as defensive positioning, he imitates Bai Weidong; defensive selection, learns from Artest; defensive focus, Bai Weidong focuses on entanglement, Artest focuses on confrontation, and Wa Shabek focuses on putting pressure on the ball.

Wallace started the catch with 16 seconds to go and tangled with Vashabek for 15 seconds as he drove a tiny space with fluent footwork and got up for a jumper.

Vashabek's heels were tied with dynamite, followed, and blocked Wallace's shot heavily out of bounds.

The referee blows the whistle and the offense is violated.Vashabek defended Wallace alone for 16 seconds, and the defense made the audience stand up.

"Ooooooooooo~~~"

Vashabek looked at the auditorium, of course he knew what the howling of wolves in the audience represented.

This is the highest tribute to the players. Vashabek clenched his fists. Since the offseason of last season, he has not rested for a day.

Training day and night, treating the gymnasium as my home, from morning to night, getting up early and working late, isn't it for this moment?

"Bo Nu, it seems that you are also a star." Bai Jidong said "jealously".

Vashabek laughed dryly. He seldom smiled, but this time he smiled naturally, "Boss, I feel like I'm getting used to it."

Bai Jidong patted him on the back, "Your performance is worthy of your efforts, don't be satisfied, this is just the beginning."

Vashabek nodded heavily, "Yes!"

It's so funny that it's like a general giving a lecture to a soldier.

Bai Jidong threw the ball to Battier and asked him to serve, "Sean, do you feel any pressure?"

Battier laughed at himself: "Until Bonu has a stable shooting technique, my main position is still safe."

"That's true." Bai Jidong smiled, "But that kid is making rapid progress, you must have a sense of crisis."

Sense of crisis?Battier smiled wryly and sent the ball out.

Does that kind of thing work?With a sense of crisis, can his talent become as good as Vashabek?
Shane Battier is very clear that sooner or later Vasha Baker will take his place.

Don't talk about talent, just talk about the age of the two.Battier is only 1 year younger than Bai Jidong. He was born in 78. He is 28 years old this year and is in his prime.

Vasha Baker is only 22 years old this year, and he is improving every day. Sooner or later, he will grab the starter from Battier.

Battier is in a good state of mind, he doesn't have any worries about it, he even hopes that Vashabek will play better and better, so that when he retires from the NBA, he can say to his children: "Be as strong as Bonu Wa Shabek also played under your father and me as a substitute for several years, how is it? Do you know how awesome your father and I were back then?"

Vashabek radiated a genius on the defensive end, and Bai Weidong continued to move towards the goal of 60 points.

It's Knight again, Bai Jidong does what he says, give up other options, pull up is three points, and don't give Knight any face.

Come on!Bai Jidong scored 41 points, and the Timberwolves' lead expanded to 11 points.

The head coach of the Bobcats quickly called a timeout, and anyone could see that it would be bad for the Bobcats to continue playing like this.

Knight couldn't do anything about Bai Weidong's shot, and Wallace struggled with Vashabek's defense.

Now the Bobcats urgently need to solve two problems, one is the defense against Bai Jidong, and the other is to improve the offensive efficiency.
