I just want to lie down and win

Chapter 79 No Fly Zone

Drawing fouls is usually a way for high-IQ players to punish low-IQ players.

Self-interest at the expense of others, helping the team get the ball or score.

In addition, by fouling the opponent's mentality, it is easier to win the game.

This is an extremely advanced method.

But it takes a long time to make fouls, and it will inevitably become down-to-earth.

Once fouling becomes the mainstream way of playing, not only the opponent will feel disgusted, but even the instigator will suffer from it.

In modern basketball where efficiency is paramount, the free throws that can be scored steadily by 1 point and 1 point are increasing day by day with the popularization of foul-making techniques.

Compared with the difficulty of scoring points in positional battles, free throws are a very cost-effective way of scoring.

Good at drawing fouls, which also benefits some players who can draw fouls.

Shooting free throws is always easier than shooting three-pointers. It is also a high-efficiency scoring method. Why bother to shoot three-pointers when you can make free throws?

If you can score a point steadily, why do you have to work hard to hit the basket and struggle with injuries to score?
With the popularization of technology and the leadership of stars, making fouls is no longer the patent of high IQ players.

Even role players can imitate, learn, and play corresponding effects.

As for the stars, it has intensified and doubled super.

More and more players use free throws to replace shots and sports battles. This is a drawback of modern basketball.

Fortunately, the game rhythm of modern basketball has not yet entered, and now is the stage of transition from classical basketball to modern basketball.

During this period, a hundred schools of thought are contending, a hundred flowers are blooming, there are all the skills that should be played, and all kinds of players are good at different abilities.

The ability to make fouls is only a skill possessed by some stars. Even if they make frequent fouls in the game, it will not affect the game perception, and it can even ignite the interest and passion of fans.

Whether it is Jordan or O'Neal, they will use fouls.

The former are mostly active and the latter are often passive.

But the fans don't think there is anything wrong with the free throws they made for fouls.

Shaking the players, countering shots, making fouls to punish opponents, and scoring in difficult ways to complete 2+1.

Confrontation at the basket, strong shots, one or two people on the body, I can still score.

This is the charm of foul-making in this era.

Huo Song is now using the giant loop to draw fouls, which is contrary to the current basketball philosophy of drawing fouls.

The current mainstream fouls are all made by me to make you 2+1, instead of going directly to free throws.

As a veteran coach, Larry Brown doesn't want Huo Song to embark on this path.

Moreover, if Huo Song leads this trend, the game will be very bad in the next few years.

The situation where the referee decides the game will be more serious.

Like most coaches, Larry Brown doesn't like seeing referees interfere with the game.

Just like when a referee targeted Iverson, Larry Brown hated this phenomenon.

Therefore, Larry Brown specifically talked to Huo Song, trying to correct Huo Song's bad habits, and instead educate Huo Song in the correct foul-making posture.

Playing in the NBA, it is okay to be a smart person, but you have to use the right place instead of being smart.

Entering the playoffs, it is common for insiders to make fouls at the basket, but if it is a means of actively touching porcelain such as a giant loop, the referee will generally not call it.

After all, the playoffs should focus on ratings, ensure the fluency of the game, and take care of the audience's viewing experience.

The real battlefield for the Pistons is in the playoffs, and Huo Song is an extremely important part of Larry Brown's plan.

Larry Brown hopes that Huo Song will develop in the direction he expected.

However, Huo Song is a person, not a tool.

In the video room, Larry Brown and Huo Song confided in each other.When Huo Song walked out of the video room, Huo Song had his own idea.

Offensive, right? 2+1, right?Then I'll try 3+1, will it be all right?
In addition to daily free throw training, Huo Song also practiced throwing shots.Well, throwing shots from outside the three-point line, of course, there are also exercises for mid-range throwing shots.

Huo Song doesn't need to practice a high hit rate, as long as his movements are coherent, he can connect to the throw after the big loop, and throw the ball quickly.

Curry sometimes throws shots outside the three-pointer when he makes fouls. Occasionally, he can hit the ball and throw the ball into the basket.

Huo Song doesn't have Curry's shooting touch, but he has Wiggins' shooting bag!

In case of luck, or if the score is stuck somewhere, Xia Ji hits the ball with eight shots.

Of course, just practice it first during training.

Nowitzki has been practicing skyhooks since he entered the league, but in the official game he was still a habitual fadeaway jumper. As a result, he developed a unique skill-Golden Rooster Independence.

In the game, Huo Song will have a chance to switch, but it should not be many.

Teams usually switch outside players, and Huo Song can really use the big loop to catch three-point throws. It may not be once in a few games.

Now that Huo Song and Larry Brown have made an agreement, if there is a fast break opportunity, they will use the big loop as an offensive threat and use breakthroughs to solve problems.

Indeed, Huo Song has Wade's dribble bag, and it's a waste to not use it in the game.

Combining the usefulness of Wiggins' shooting bag and Wade's shooting bag, coupled with increasingly sophisticated foul-making skills, it is not impossible to average 10+20 per game with only 10 shots.

……

On November 11, the regular season continued.

The Pistons continue to sit at home to meet the challenge of the New Orleans Hornets, the third in the East.

The New Orleans Hornets, formerly known as the Charlotte Hornets, continued to retain their status as an Eastern Conference team because they were just moving.

After this season was over, the Charlotte Bobcats entered the league and became the new Eastern Conference team, and the New Orleans Hornets transformed into a Western Conference team.

Over the years, the New Orleans Hornets have always been a strong team in the Eastern Conference, making it to the playoffs for five consecutive years. Although there is no hope of winning the championship, it is not easy for a small team in a small market.

The same civilian configuration, the same top three teams in the East, and the same defensive team.

The Pistons' home game against the Hornets is a game that sounds interesting, but in fact it has little ratings.

Except for Detroit local fans, few fans like to watch anxious defensive battles.

Therefore, even if it is a confrontation between strong teams in the playoffs, the league did not arrange a national live broadcast in advance.

For the players of the two teams, they can breathe a sigh of relief.

"I can finally show my full defensive ability!"

Before the start of the game, Larry Brown was a little worried about whether Huo Song would drag the team back on the defensive end, so he repeatedly emphasized the importance of defense to Huo Song to keep Huo Song active and aggressive.

In the game, Huo Song performed well, and he didn't pull his hips as much as Larry Brown had imagined.

As soon as he played, Ben and Jamal Magloire failed to jump the ball, and the Hornets lobbed into the paint, allowing PJ Brown to play Big Ben in a single.

Daben was squeezed halfway away by PJ Brown, and Huo Song used his agility to make up the defense in time, and cooperated with Daben to double-team PJ Brown, successfully defending the ball.

Billups quickly pushed back, but Baron Davis broke the dribble and almost completed the steal.

Fortunately, Hamilton was on the side, picked up the ball and went straight to the basket.

With no one defending the basket, Hamilton imitated Jordan's posture and dunked the ball in a loop.

The Pistons fans immediately yelled: "Outrageous, outrageous, outrageous."

Chinese fans who arrive at the Palace of Auburn Hills for the first time may be surprised to hear Detroit fans call Hamilton that way.

Hamilton's dunk is pretty good, but it's not outrageous, right?

In fact, the fans shouted "RIP", which is the nickname Hamilton inherited from his father.

It is said that it was because I often tore up diapers when I was a child...

Of course, Hamilton's off-the-ball running is superb, and he can often tear apart the enemy's defense by himself.

It is said that the Pistons scored two points first, and the Hornets immediately served from the bottom line and launched a fast break.

The Pistons returned to defense in time, and the game became a positional battle again.

Davis passed the ball to the basket and played a pick-and-roll with Magloire in the paint.

After dismantling Magloire, he catches the ball and makes a jump shot, but Huo Song suddenly appears behind Magloire, and it is a big hot pot.

It's a pity that the basketball was shot out of bounds, and the ball returned to the Hornets.

"Jamal, you can shoot faster." Davis patted Magloire's shoulder, "I will take Ben Wallace away, Huo Song is just a rookie, you are enough to get rid of him."

Relying on the impact of outside players, the Hornets have a lot of opportunities to eat inside every game.

This time because there were too many people at the basket, Magloire couldn't take off and dunk directly, but he didn't expect the simplest short-range shot, and he spit out the cake he fed into his mouth.

Next, the Hornets who served from the baseline played a baseline serve tactic.

Davis attracts the defense at the top arc and opens the floor.

PJ Brown cuts to the basket from a 45-degree angle on the weak side.

Serving George Lynch used his height to pretend to pass the ball to David Wesley on the outside, but actually passed the ball to PJ Brown who cut in.

After PJ Brown received the ball and forced a kill to the basket, it was too late for Daben to return to defense, so he could only foul and destroy PJ Brown's layup.

PJ Brown tried a wave of 2+1, but it didn't work out.

PJ Brown is a special blue-collar insider. As a tall and thin defensive insider, he can do dirty work, but he can't shoot.

But what is special is that the level of free throws is very high. As an inside player, his free throw percentage is above 80% all the year round.

After two free throws, the score was tied.

However, Billups and Hamilton were not in a hurry to make a shot. Billups called Huo Song out to pick and roll, giving Huo Song a chance to hit the ball.

PJ Brown switched defenses in front of Huo Song, and Huo Song took the ball and made a European step throw.

"The basketball went into the net hollow, and Huo Song hit his first goal of the game."

Not long ago, Huo Song just practiced throwing shots, and now he has the opportunity to use them. He naturally combined with Wade's dribbling bag to try the water.

At present, the effect is still good. Huo Song can't score the ball only by stopping the ball and then attacking.

Then the Hornets attacked again, and Davis continued to use his unstoppable breakthrough to get inside.

Magloire catches the ball from the basket and gets up to dunk: "I can kill you!"

Although Huo Song reached out to block the shot, he still couldn't defend the ball.

At the same time, he was sprayed with a trash talk.

Trash talking is part of the pitch, and the referees heard it but ignored it.

Although Huo Song was a little angry, he didn't vent it immediately.

Huo Song still understands the truth that whoever makes the move is right.

At such a time, Huo Song could only speak harshly first: "I hope you can still stand on the field then."

Huo Song wanted to make a foul, but Magloire thought that Huo Song would blow him up with a back blow, or hurt him with bad little moves.

"Come on, rookie, I'll wait for you!" Magloire said with a smile.

"Do you need me to pass the ball to you?" Billups noticed the conflict between Huo Song and Magloire. If Huo Song wanted the ball, Billups would naturally support Huo Song.

Huo Song nodded and said, "You can give me the ball, I won't let everyone down."

The other players of the Pistons felt Huo Song's emotions, and quickly used Hamilton to run from the weak side corner to the strong side corner to clear the weak side.

Others stand on the outside to create space.

Billups ran to a 45-degree angle on the weak side and lobbed the ball inside.

After Huo Song received the ball, he singled Magloire.

Magloire is little-known, but he is the center player closest to the All-Star level when the big centers in the East are withered.

Magloire is indeed in good form this season, not only defending well, but also gradually developing offense.

Huo Song punched Magloire, who was a few centimeters shorter than him, without pushing too far away.

Ever since, Huo Song turned his back and made a breakthrough.

Magloire stretched out a hand to cover Huo Song's breakthrough route to prevent Huo Song from making a sudden shot, and at the same time squeezed Huo Song to the bottom line.

However, at this time, Huo Song turned around again, changed the breakthrough route to the middle, and made a jump shot.

Magloire's pace slowed down a bit, and PJ Brown was stuck in the big box again, Magloire could only take off to block Huo Song.

When Huo Song saw Magloire being sent flying, he didn't hesitate. He jumped up and looked for a confrontation in the air, and then threw the ball.

"And One! Huo Song played really hard! He also played very smartly!

Take the initiative to find a confrontation, swing the defensive player away, and make a shot after the confrontation. The basketball bounced and fell into the net.

This kind of 2+1 ball is generally impossible for rookies to play. "

"Yes, Huo Song knows how to play more and more!"

Huo Song made the foul on his own initiative, so it is naturally impossible to miss it with additional penalties later on.

Recently, Huo Song's confidence in executing free throws is quite good. In daily free throw training, his shooting percentage has gradually increased to about 92%.

Now that Huo Song has just come up, he is in a very good state. After making an extra penalty, he has already scored 5 points.

"You still have 5 chances to guard me. If you can't, call someone to double-team me!"

Hearing this, Magloire raised his eyebrows at Huo Song: "Let's wait and see."

The two internal contradictions on the field have been brought to light, and both sides are showing their talents, helping their teammates to cheer.

Davis suddenly scored to George Lynch, who continued to advance inside and then gave the ball to Magloire.

Just as Magloire was about to take off and dunk Huo Song, Da Ben suddenly rushed out: "This is a no-fly zone! Come down for me!"

Big Ben took half a head less than Magloire, but caught Magloire's dunk from Magloire's side.

"Unbelievable, Jamal Magloire was thrown to the ground by Ben's powerful upper body!
Big Ben's block was clean and didn't break Jamal Magloire's offense through thugs.

Big Ben's defense this possession was excellent, and it was a defense that was slated to hit the top ten. "

Magloire fell to the ground, but the referee did not blow his whistle and the game continued.

It is said that after Big Ben finished catching the cap, Huo Song also started to run wildly forward.

The Hornets guard is still unclear about Huo Song's athletic ability, and the focus of defense is still on Billups and Hamilton.

Although the Pistons failed to score in the fast break at the first time, when Huo Song rushed to the frontcourt, the opportunity came out.

Huo Song is an inside player, but there are no Hornets inside players in the frontcourt.Huo Song received the ball with a three-pointer and initiated a breakthrough with a dynamite bag.

However, some people just like to show off.

Davis is a well-known heavy point guard in the league, with a big butt comparable to the future Harden.

Davis thought he could stop Huo Song, but just before he reached the free throw line, he was knocked into the air by Huo Song before he could stand still.

The whole person fell from the free throw line until he slid for more than one meter and half of his body lay on the bottom line before stopping.

When the referee saw the whistle sound, Huo Song continued to throw the ball regardless.

The ball is in!
