NBA backer king

Chapter 420 Backhand 1 Slap

Chapter 420

On the morning of May 5, Da Zhi came to the Knicks for a trial training.

The Knicks arrived in Miami yesterday and will play the second round today, so when he came to the training hall, he didn't see any Knicks players.

There is a staff member arranged by David Frank who is also qualified as an agent and is responsible for arranging his trial training.

In addition, David Frank also hired a translator, an international student at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.

Because it was a trial training arranged by David Frank, the Knicks were still very cautious.

Although it was put together by David Frank and Jordan last year, the Knicks management does not want to offend such a top agent.

After a round of trial training, I am satisfied with Dazhi's static talent, and his dynamic talent is also okay.

He is not yet 20 years old, and his weight is not very big. Now he is 117 kg. He is still a man like the wind. He has good vertical movement ability. His weakness is that his lateral movement speed is slow and his defense ability is not good.

Then they arranged a one-on-one duel, and the Knicks wanted to see Dazhi's skills and actual combat ability.

Now the management wants to equip O'Neal with a power forward. They really don't want Oakley anymore. One day with Oakley, it will be difficult for O'Neal to become the boss of this team.

They're looking for a power forward similar to Oakley, who has defense, can do the dirty work, and can pull out.Rasheed Wallace was originally fancy, but the Suns were unwilling to trade.

After playing a few balls, several managements were a little disappointed, the defense was not good, and they had no ability to fight.

But they still have some ideas about Dazhi. They have a height in the fourth position, and they can try to build a fixed-point high fort. If the defense is not good, they can play in the substitute lineup.

And at a young age, defensive and confrontational abilities can also be developed.

However, the Knicks did not make a promise, and they had to continue to go to other teams for trial training.

That night, the Knicks and the Heat, the Jazz and the Trail Blazers launched a second-round battle.

As a result, O'Neal ate three big caps from Mourning, but still blasted Mourning with a tyrannical low-post attack. Alan Houston broke out and scored 29 points.

For the Jazz, it was relatively easy to win.

On the 6th, the Suns ushered in the second round of G2.

On the way from the underground parking lot to the locker room, some reporters took the opportunity to ask some questions.

"Old K, from the regular season to the present this season, you rarely hurt people anymore. Is this because of the limitation of the K law?"

"That's it."

"Old K, your efficiency is still higher than that of O'Neill. What advantages do you think you have?"

Old Wang said as he walked: "In terms of height and wingspan, I am almost the same as him. He should not be better than me in jumping now, and the speed is the same. In terms of explosive power, he may be better than me, but the advantage will not be too big. That is to say, in terms of physical fitness, there is no obvious difference between us."

He himself was a little surprised when he said this. When he entered the league five years ago, his athletic quality was scum in front of O'Neal, but now he is almost equal?

Pressing the surprise in his heart, he continued: "The reason why my efficiency is still higher than him is that my physical fitness is better than his, which allows me to maintain high-quality output while making more comprehensive contributions.

The second is that my skills are better than his. Whether it is the low post, or the finishing skills such as hooks and throws, I think I am stronger than him.

Three, my free throws are a little better than his, haha..."

Having said that, he and everyone present laughed.

"Old K, the Suns did not win the G1 game very well. What do you think of the Sonics?" a reporter from the Seattle Sports News asked.

Lao Wang sneered twice and said, "Gary Payton once said that our Suns team is the Pacific Ocean, which is full of water, so I want to say..."

The reporter felt a little bad when he heard this.

Sure enough, Lao Wang continued: "Gloves, be careful not to drown, because no matter how powerful your supersonic speed is, I will let it sink in the Pacific Ocean."

……

At 07:30, the two sides announced the starting lineup.

Sonics: Sam Perkins, Shaun Kemp, Detlef Schrempf, Jose Hawkins, Payton

Suns: Wang Tiejun, Rasheed Wallace, Robert Horry, Kidd, Kevin Johnson

"Director Zhang, the Supersonics have changed their lineup today, and Perkins has entered the starting lineup. Will he be playing against Old K or Rasheed Wallace?" Su Qun asked.

Zhang Lili was a little puzzled and said: "He is not tall, and his tonnage is close to 120 kilograms. He is quite strong and has a low center of gravity. He is effective in carrying other people, but he certainly cannot carry Tiejun, but Yuren is lighter in tonnage, so he can't carry it either. I think the Supersonics may continue to double-team Tiejun today. Instead of a meat shield, use a short inside line, so that the double-teaming speed is faster."

"It should be." Su Qun said.

Zhang rationally analyzed: "Without the meat shield, the height of the Supersonic will come down, the speed will be faster, and it will be more conducive to the Supersonic's fast-paced offensive and defensive style. The Suns still have to be careful."

In the TNT live broadcast seat, Bill Walton also analyzed the situation, saying: "Perkins' top defense skills are good, he should match up with the old K, and then Rain Man Kemp will help defend on the weak side. The defensive effect should be better than using the tank Irvine.

In addition, his shooting ability is very strong. This season, his three-point shooting rate is as high as 39.5%, and his long-range two-point shooting rate is as high as 47%.

So on the offensive end, he is facing the old K. The real threat is not the basket and the low post, but pulling out. The Sonics must use his ability to pull the old K out of the paint, at least away from the basket.

In the past, old K's defense was mediocre, but now old K's defensive ability is top-notch. He is very strong in single defense and auxiliary defense. If he doesn't pull out, it is difficult for the Sonics to attack the basket. "

Bas Felton nodded and said, "That's right. The Rain Man's greatest threat is the impact on the basket. It can deal a blow to the opponent's psychology and destroy the opponent's morale. With Old K inside, he is much less threatening to the basket."

Bill Walton took a look at the Suns' starting lineup and said: "The Suns still play double control tactics, so that the Sonics can't lock the perimeter, and then the offense starts from the low post.

I just don’t know how the Supersonics will defend the old K tonight, double-team, or single defense?There should be all of them. Anyway, no matter how you defend, you can't defend against them. Behemoths like Old K and O'Neill are really difficult to restrain him. "

Bas Felton said with a smile: "What's more frightening is that old K's physical fitness is too good. To defend against him, you must double-team. Otherwise, with his physical fitness, he can fight from the beginning to the end of the game. Who can stand it?"

"Haha..." Bill Walton laughed.

At eight o'clock, the game officially started, and the two teams started to play.

"champion!"

On the Suns side, Wang Tiejun stood in the middle, stood upright, raised his voice, shouted loudly, and his breath penetrated the audience, and the audience responded with a roar.

"Champion! Champion! Champion..."

In an instant, the Meixi Arena was completely overwhelmed by the shouts of "championship", and the momentum of the home court was like a fire cooking oil, and the momentum was overwhelming.

On the supersonic side, Peyton and the others immediately felt tremendous psychological pressure, their heartbeat increased, their breathing was difficult, and their chests felt like a huge stone was pressed against them.

"It's on the rise! The Suns are on the rise. As long as we keep this momentum, the Suns will surely win!" Zhang Reasonable shouted excitedly.

"Champion! Champion..."

In China, the capital, and the Fengshen neighborhood, there are countless basketball fans in the capital, and it has already been boiling.

At the scene, in the jump ball session, this time the Rain Man jumped early and missed the rhythm. Rasheed Wallace, who jumped slowly, pushed the ball away, and the Suns attacked.

With no meat shield in the way, Pharaoh went straight from the free throw line to the basket.

With a meat shield, the meat shield can't stop him, but it can consume a lot of his physical energy. Confrontation is the most energy-consuming way for the low position, and there is no one.

And without Irvine, the Sonics would not have the height of the basket at all. With his behemoth physique, he can do whatever he wants under the basket.

Perkins leaned over to defend and tried his best, but he squeezed forward, stepped on the line of the reasonable collision zone, and then turned sideways to see the ball flying over.

"Snapped!"

The left elbow was stuck against Perkins, the right hand caught the ball, and then turned sideways, smashing the basket with one arm.

On the right wing, when the ball came in, Camp Rainman directly abandoned Rasheed Wallace, who was two steps away, turned around and started quickly, stepping up, soaring up like a cheetah with wings, just in time for Wang Tiejun to get up and dunk.

Its tendency to help defend against pincer attacks is very fierce.

"Air interception?"

"careful!"

Zhang Lili and Su Qun exclaimed at the same time.

"Ok?"

At this moment, from the corner of Wang Tiejun's right eye, he caught an object approaching at high speed, and there was a feeling of turmoil.

"Snapped!"

The next moment, a big hand hit the basketball.

There is a contest between the two forces at this moment, and the winner is determined in an instant.

"boom!"

In the next moment, relying on his overwhelming strength, Wang Tiejun's thick arm pressed down on Yuren's thinner arm, and continued to smash down, smashing the basket.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle sounded, and was immediately drowned out by crazy shouts.

"Ow!"

In the American West Arena, countless home fans were ecstatic, jumping up, blood pumping, raising their arms and shouting wildly.

On the Suns bench, Kobe and others jumped up one after another, shouting and waving the white towel excitedly.

"Old K, old K, KKKKKK..." the live commentator kept shouting excitedly.

After completing this dunk, Wang Tiejun was also very excited. After landing, he squeezed away the rain man who was a little in the way, and started celebrating with his teammates who rushed over.

Mingming hit the ball with the cap, but he didn't miss the ball, and was hit with a two plus one, and now he was squeezed again, Yuren's brain was flushed with blood, he took a step forward, and pushed Lao Wang from behind.

Lao Wang was pushed and staggered. In a rage, he turned around and hit Yuren in the face with a slap.

Rain Man was beaten so hard that his head drool came out.

"Di Di!"

"Calm down, don't mess around!"

The referee's reaction was quick, and he blew his whistle immediately, then quickly inserted between the two, stretching out his hand to push them away.

"calm!"

Peyton ran up and hugged Rain Man, and shouted at the latter: "Calm down, don't be impulsive and ruin the event!"

"Hohohoho..."

Sean Kemp, who lost his mind, was panting like a beast, staring at Wang Tiejun.

"What are you looking at? You can't afford to lose, or did you drink a few sips before coming up?" Old Wang scolded.

Yuren was startled, his eyes shrank, and he regained his senses.

He does drink heavily, but it’s not because he’s afraid of drinking. Everyone knows this. He likes to drink a few sips before he goes on the court. There are many people like him in the league, and Jordan may be among them, and he is also a famous alcoholic.

What is he afraid of? He is worried that the matter of smoking independence will be pulled out.

Just before playing, he not only drank, but also smoked a little bit of Malaysia. Although this kind of thing is common in the league, he must be in trouble if he gets kicked out. He will sign a new contract soon, and he doesn't want to be affected by such things.

"Old K, don't talk nonsense." Payton was also in a hurry. If the rain man fell, his road to winning the championship would also be terminated.

Lao Wang snorted coldly, ignored it, and turned to the free throw line.

He was just swearing casually, did Rain Man drink or smoke, what did he have to do with it?But judging by Rainman's reaction, he might have hit the mark.

"Today's opening was very hot, and the temper was very hot." Su Qun said.

"The game is very important. The Suns won two home games, and the following games will be easy. If the Sonics win one game and win an away game, they will also be easy to play." Zhang Reasonable said.

"boom!"

Wang Tiejun missed an extra penalty, so he immediately turned around and began to return to defense.

The Rainman grabbed the rebound and the Sonics started their offense.

"The supersonic speed advances very fast, and the defense must be put in place as soon as possible." Zhang Lili shouted quickly.

"Special!"

Lao Wang came to the paint area, but Perkins, who was facing him, stopped on the left-wing three-point line. He cursed and rushed out.

On the right wing, seeing the old K leave the basket, the Rainman quickly started, threw off Rasheed Wallace, and cut to the basket.

At this time, Payton quickly took the ball and passed it to the front of the Rainman.

At the same time, Wang Tiejun, who had just pounced on the left waist in the paint, suddenly stopped, turned around and pounced towards the basket.

Taking a step into the paint, Yuren catches the ball and explodes in an instant. He turns into a beast and pounces on the basket, about to hit a flat-basket dunk.

At the same time, Wang Tiejun turned around and took a step, sealing the rain man with his big hand.

His jumping is not as good as Yuren's. Although he has the advantages of height and wingspan, his defensive height is still a bit lower than Yuren's. It's just that Yuren dunks, not shooting, so there is no problem with his height.

Between the two, an obtuse angle of 135 degrees was formed, and they met together in an instant.

"Snapped!"

The Rainman dunked wildly, but at the moment the basketball entered the basket, a big hand blocked the basket, and the loud thumping sound was very clear.

With Yuren's explosive power, this dunk was full of impact, and Lao Wang couldn't seal it with a single palm. His left hand was smashed off immediately, and the basketball in Yuren's hand hit the basket.

However, Yuren's hands were not as big as Lao Wang's, and he didn't have enough control over the ball. Although he smashed Lao Wang's hand under the block, the ball lost control.

"boom!"

With the violent sound of the basket being exploded, the basketball hit the basket and bounced high in an instant.

At the moment of landing, Wang Tiejun raised his head to observe the landing point of the ball, while quickly moving the card position, and was not in a hurry to take off to grab the basketball.

Rain Man was stuck behind, saw Lao Wang snatching the basketball, and was about to go up to grab it, but was scared away by a pair of iron elbows thrown by Lao Wang.

"Now Tiejun's return to defense is really fast!" Zhang Lili said happily.

"Director Zhang, did you say that old K was really planning to go to the three-point line just now?" Su Qun asked thoughtfully.

Zhang Lili said: "That's not necessarily true. There is Horry over there. If the ball is given to Perkins, he can switch defenses, so Tiejun will not leave the paint easily.

Supersonic is a strategy of attacking east and west. They want to use Perkins to pull the Iron Army out, and the Rainman launches an attack from the other wing.

But I'm afraid it won't be easy, unless you score a few goals with this tactic, if it doesn't work, Tie Jun will definitely not go out easily. "

Su Qun nodded and said: "Now the Suns' defense is not bad. There are no obvious defensive loopholes in the five positions, and the defense speed is also good. Old K really doesn't need to rush to the three-point line. You can make up for other positions first."

At this time, the Suns came to the frontcourt. Lightning caught the ball on the right-wing three-point line, called Rasheed Wallace's pick-and-roll, broke through the wall, and went to the basket. Using his strong penetration and breakthrough ability, the Sonics' defense was messed up. There was no layup, but a short pass, which was passed to Lao Wang next to him.

"Haha, Lightning is very excited. He seldom makes such a breakthrough now." Bill Wharton laughed.

"The momentum of the Suns is so high today. Everyone is very excited. But be careful not to get too excited. Too excited will also affect the feel of the hand." Bas Felton laughed.
