NBA: Crazy Little Giant

The Suns' offense mainly revolves around the double guards.

After Bledsoe crossed half court with the ball, he came to the top of the arc outside the three-point line and signaled his teammates to set a high double pick-and-roll.

Devin Booker and Tyson Chandler set a pick-and-roll for Bledsoe.

After the pick-and-roll, Bledsoe broke through to the basket.

Facing the 183cm tall Bledsoe, Chen Cheng was passed by cleanly, but fortunately Oladipo assisted in defense in time, and the two stopped Bledsoe.

Tyson Chandler's pick-and-roll wall caught Westbrook, and Devin Booker at a 45-degree angle on the right wing ran out of the open space.

Bledsoe seized the opportunity and passed the ball to Booker.

But Bledsoe is not a very good organizer, and his passing skills are very average.

Booker was very uncomfortable receiving this ball.

After adjusting back, Westbrook had already switched to him.

Booker quickly made a three-threat tentative step and a fake shot to ignite the unstable Westbrook.

Then, he drove straight to the basket.

"Not good!" Thunder fans secretly thought it was not good.

Chen Cheng, who was at the edge of the penalty area, saw this and immediately went to make up for the defense.

Devin Booker saw Chen Cheng coming.

A disdainful smile flashed across his mouth.

Just such a big fool?

Can he defend me?

Devin Booker made a sudden stop and a quick start, trying to hit Chen Cheng by changing the rhythm.

But Chen Cheng didn't buy it. The soles of his feet seemed to be glued to the floor. No matter how fancy you are, I will just raise my hands and jump and I will lose!!!

Devin Booker saw that the opponent was not shaken at all.

In addition, Chen Cheng was too tall and too big. With a height of 226cm, a wingspan of 230cm, and a weight of 134kg, he stood like a mountain in front of Devin Booker.

Seeing that Chen Cheng refused to jump, Devin Booker had no choice but to grit his teeth and bite the bullet and crash into Chen Cheng.

He wanted to shoot after the confrontation.

""Bang!" Devin Booker bounced back directly after hitting Chen Cheng.

What a joke?

You, Devin Booker, who weighs less than 100kg and has not much explosive power, want to play against me?

Devin Booker rolled to the ground with the ball.

At this time, Oladipo, the sixth player on the court with a bitter face, quickly picked up the basketball that Devin Booker dropped on the floor.

But Booker did not give up so easily. He used a very concealed move to pull Oladipo's jersey, which completely avoided the referee's sight.

Oladipo staggered, He almost fell to the ground.

The Suns players nearby also hurriedly tried to grab the ball.

Just as he was about to enter a melee, Oladipo once again noticed the tallest giant on the court.

Chen Cheng, who taught him to be the sixth man!

After Chen Cheng caught the ball with his big hands, he lifted it into the air.

Devin Booker, who fell to the ground, was a little angry after getting up and wanted to fight for it.

He jumped up.

But in front of Chen Cheng, who was 226cm tall, he was a head shorter.

Chen Cheng, who grabbed the ball with one hand and raised his hand to the sky, couldn't help but shake it left and right twice, like teasing a child, making Devin Booker dance awkwardly in front of him.

"Phew!"

"Teacher Chen actually played it"

"Haha. Yeah, that made me laugh."

"Devin Booker, who is 196cm tall, is like a little kid in front of Teacher Chen."After seeing this scene in the Penguin live broadcast room in China, he laughed wildly while holding his stomach and posting comments.......

However, the next second,

Chen Cheng's face suddenly changed.

The playful smile on his face disappeared, replaced by seriousness and concentration.

Chen Cheng noticed that his teammate Russell Westbrook had rushed to the front.

""Whoosh!"

Chen Cheng made another trebuchet-like pass across half court.

This pass had a very good margin.

Westbrook made a slight adjustment and successfully received the pass.

Then, he soared into the sky like a tortoise, dunked the ball, and ignited the whole audience.......

"Kenny, have you noticed that the Thunder's style of play seems to have changed a bit?" Charles Barkley said in the TMT live studio

""Yeah." Kenny Smith responded perfunctorily.

At this time, he could see that the Thunder team was not Westbrook grabbing rebounds and counterattacks.

In the transition between offense and defense, most of their"first pass" was given to Chen Cheng, a 226cm tall man.

The rushing Russell Westbrook was really"Megatron".

Even if there were one or two people standing under the basket, he could cause damage.

His injuries this season were not particularly serious, and his finishing ability was not bad.

In addition, this also solved the problem that Chen Cheng could not run fast breaks........

Within 4 minutes after the opening, the Suns were almost beaten by the Thunder.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Suns' outside shooting was not good.

The outside three-pointer was not open.

The Thunder's defense can shrink.

The Thunder, with two big inside players, are like two moving castles, so that Bledsoe, who is good at breaking through, can't even see the basket.

In addition, the Thunder's offense is not as constipated as imagined.

Although Adams has no shooting range, he has a small hook in the paint area.

Chen Cheng's vision and passing are very good, and he can always pass it to Adams at a tricky angle.

Even if Adams misses, there is Chen Cheng to compete for offensive rebounds.

This makes Adams attack boldly.

In addition, Oladipo, the sixth player, and Robertson, who has a shoe-horn face, both made shots.

This set of inside double tower lineup is surprisingly effective.

It surprised Thunder coach Donovan.

Although this set of double tower lineup cannot be used as a regular lineup in the small ball era, it can be used as a surprise weapon.

Especially in high-intensity games, when both teams' outside shots are muted, this lineup is extremely deadly!!!.......

Soon it was time for an official timeout.

Players from both teams left the court to rest.

Thunder coach Donovan gave Chen Cheng, Oladipo, and Robertson a thumbs up.

"Victor, that move you just made was so cool"

"Yeah, Victor."

When he returned to the bench to rest, his teammates were asking Oladipo about his [Old Six-Stealing Ball Style]】

"ah..."

"that..."

"It was Chen who taught me all these things.

Oladipo said a little embarrassedly.

"Really? Chen!"

"What is the principle of this move?"

The substitutes asked curiously.

This made Chen Cheng a little amused.......

On the other hand

, everyone on the bench of the Phoenix Suns had a very grim look on their faces.

"The little bastard, that little bastard..."Tyson Chandler said with a wry smile.

The duel with Chen Cheng reminded Tyson Chandler of the time when he was beaten by his compatriot Yao Ming.

But the difference was that Yao Ming beat him in scoring, while this guy beat him in rebounding, which was his best area.

This blow made Chandler feel even heavier.

It was as if he had returned to the days when he was dominated by Yao Ming!
