Chapter 529 Old K’s turnaround and step back shot

  May 19th, the game day of the Western Conference Finals G2.

   Trail Blazers: Olajuwon, Duncan, Walter Williams, Isaiah Ryder, Damon Stoudemire

  Lakers: Wang Tiejun, Danny Fortson, Richmond, Kobe, Mark Price

   The starting lineup of both sides did not change. At eight o’clock, the game officially started. After the jump ball, the Lakers took the lead.

   But this time, the person defending Wang Tiejun was replaced by Da Meng, not Duncan.

  Although Da Meng is old and his form has declined a bit this season, he is still hanging on the tail of his peak. The key is that this old guy has no major injuries, so the decline is not large.

  His experience is not comparable to that of rookie Duncan. At the same time, his defense is stronger than Duncan. The Blazers have no choice but to let him defend the old king. Duncan can’t defend, so he can only let the veteran stand up.

  Fortson’s ability to pull off is limited. Duncan is at the waist in the paint area and can go back to the basket at any time, so Pharaoh didn’t go to the basket to actively look for a double team, but played a low post on the left wing.

  Dameng took the front and dragged Pharaoh’s jersey with his left arm back. Once Pharaoh moved to the basket, he could sense it immediately.

   He was almost sitting on Pharaoh’s lap, his feet were constantly moving with Pharaoh, his right hand was raised high, and he could take off and intercept the pass at any time.

  Mark Price first gave the ball to Richmond, who swayed Williams with a fake pass, then took a step and quickly hoisted the ball to Pharaoh’s backhand.

   Seeing the ball coming, Pharaoh immediately held the dream with his right arm, and raised his left hand to catch the ball.

   But at this moment, Da Meng reacted in the first instant, suddenly turned to the left, threw himself at Pharaoh’s backhand, and was ready to steal the ball.

   At the same time, Duncan on the weak side also rushed over and implemented a help defense.

“Be careful!”

  Su Qun shouted in the live broadcast booth.

   Lao Wang tried his best to take off, relying on the advantages of tonnage and strength to hold the big dream, and relying on the advantage of longer arms, did not let the big dream steal successfully, and took the ball in his hand.

   But at this time, time was delayed, Duncan successfully completed the double-team, and together with Da Meng, blocked the way for Pharaoh to go up and to the paint area, he was on the upper side, and Da Meng was on the inner side.

“here.”

  Richmond moved to the left bottom corner immediately after passing the ball, and hurriedly asked for the ball.

   Lao Wang was double-teamed near the bottom line and could only score the ball. He immediately turned around and passed the ball to the left bottom corner.

  Richmond received the ball, and at this time, small forward Walter Williams, who was a beat late, had caught up with him, and he had to force a jumper.

“boom!”

  Under the block of the defender, he raised the shot angle, the ball was short, and after hitting the basket and rebounding, he was taken by the big dream who turned around.

   “Old K has to be careful of Da Meng’s defense!” Su Qun shouted.

Zhang Lili immediately analyzed: “Today, the big dream is the main defense of the iron army, then on the defensive end of the Lakers, I think the iron army will definitely choose to continue to stare at Duncan, so the big dream has to continue to exert force on the offensive end, his physical energy consumption will be Very big.”

  Su Qun was refreshed and said excitedly: “In other words, Zhang Gui, let the big dream defend against Lao K’s defensive tactics is not sustainable?”

   “Yes, I think so, the tactic of letting Da Meng exert his strength on both ends of offense and defense is not reasonable.”

Zhang Lili nodded and said: “I think the Blazers let the big dream defend the iron army at the beginning of the game, but they just don’t want to be played by the iron army with a super-explosive opening like the night before, which will hurt morale, and the tactics will be adjusted later. came here.”

  Suqun nodded, thinking that what Lao Zhang said was very reasonable.

On the sidelines, Dunleavy was also very sorry to see that he successfully defended an old K’s attack. He wanted to let Dameng defend the old K and attack the low position, but that is impossible, unless it was a big player ten years ago. Dream.

   Blazers offense.

  Wang Tiejun made his choice.

   He has the right to choose, and can decide whether to defend his big dream or Duncan. This is the power that the coaching staff gave him on the court.

   He chose to defend Duncan, making it clear that he would continue to target the rookie.

   First, he always believed that Duncan was a greater threat, because the big dream was indeed old, and it was impossible to break out a whole series after one or two games, but Duncan, who was terribly stable, could.

  Second, he didn’t want Duncan to put up a strong performance on him.

   “Damn!”

   Seeing old K following Duncan, Da Meng muttered and started asking for the ball.

  If Old K chooses to guard him, that’s just right. He exerts his strength on the defensive end, Duncan exerts his strength on the offensive end, and the two of them have one main defense and one auxiliary attack. It is very possible to jointly defeat the Lakers.

   But now the old K’s choice has made this plan bankrupt.

Catching the ball, he swayed up and down, and Fordson was still standing behind him. He swayed up and down again. This time, there was no one behind him. Fordson had been swayed to the side. , into the paint area.

  Pharaoh returned to defend the basket, Da Meng passed the ball decisively, and deliberately avoided the route of Pharaoh stealing the ball. After receiving the ball, Duncan hit the board at 45 degrees from the left waist and easily hit a ball.

   “There is no way to prevent this kind of cooperation.” Zhang Lili sighed.

  Su Qun said: “Fortson needs to strengthen the confrontation, and he can’t let Da Meng want the ball so easily, and then pass the ball to Duncan, he must consume his physical strength.”

Zhang Lili nodded and said: “That’s right, if the big dream and Duncan’s low post play together so easily, then the big dream can completely exert force on the offensive end while defending the iron army on the defensive end. He has used medicated baths for many years. , I have been training all the time, and my physical fitness is still good now.”

  2:0, the Lakers attacked.

  Dameng stood by Pharaoh’s side again, but this time Pharaoh forcibly squeezed out Dameng and chose to enter the basket to get the ball.

   At the basket, of course, he will be double-teamed faster. Even before the ball arrives, Duncan’s early double-teaming will be in place, but he still chooses to enter the basket.

   “Old K, don’t try to be reckless.” Big Meng immediately followed in, still going around to defend.

   He knows what Old K wants to do, doesn’t he just want to beat him and Duncan under the basket? He is too familiar with the old K, and he knows it with his ass.

   “I’m going to **** you.”

  Pharaoh was spouting trash talk, facing the right wing, pushing Duncan with his right elbow and holding the ball high with his left.

  Mark Price was ready when Pharaoh moved to the basket, and immediately hoisted the ball from Momo’s head.

   “Sheet, upload from me again?”

   Momonga was so angry that he was bullying him and he was injured and couldn’t fly? Sooner or later you’ll have to break a ball.

At the moment of    passing the ball, Duncan turned around and threw himself into the paint area. After a big step, his hand was almost on Pharaoh’s body, and he took another step and immediately got close to him.

   Before the ball reached Pharaoh’s hands, the two big insiders of the Blazers completed the double-teaming.

   In the next instant, the ball arrived and the three of them took off at the same time.

“mine.”

   Lao Wang gave a secret shout, took off with all his strength, and grabbed the ball with his height advantage.

   In the next instant, he fell to the ground and squatted down. He was about to take off for the second time. His four arms were pressed in the air above his head, and his two solid bodies also squeezed up, preventing him from jumping up.

  Duncan is on the right side of the basket, and Da Meng is on top of the basket, squeezing his space at the same time, not giving him the space and opportunity to get up.

At this time, while dribbling the ball, he took advantage of the situation to take a step back, temporarily getting rid of the double team of the two, and then when the two were about to come up, he dribbled the ball again, followed by a quick step back, That is to say, a turn around, backed by Da Meng, and circled for half a circle, not only completely got rid of the double team of the two, but also completed the purpose of shifting the attack, from the left back of the basket to the left front of the basket.

   The next moment, the moment the ball bounced from the floor into his hand, he was in a violent shape, and he was about to force the big dream and make a dunk.

   Duncan at the basket was blocked by Da Meng and failed to make a timely defensive response. When he saw Old K flying up from behind Da Meng, it was too late to take off and block.

“asshole!”

  Da Meng reacted very quickly, and immediately started to pull Pharaoh down.

“boom!”

   The basket rang loudly, the basketball smashed into the basket and dunked.

   “Di!”

   The referee’s whistle also rang,

   “Oh, it’s a pity, it’s almost.” Zhang Lili sighed regretfully.

   “Da Meng fouled too quickly and decisively.” Su Qun laughed.

   “He couldn’t help but be decisive, he was delayed by a tenth of a second, and he was detained.” Zhang Lili laughed.

  Su Qun smiled and said, “Old K’s pace is really good now. As soon as he retreated and turned around, he got rid of the double-team under the basket. It’s really easy to move around!”

   “The Plum Blossom Step is about moving and turning. The Tie Jun practiced for two or three years and worked hard.” Lao Zhang said with a smile.

   On the sidelines, Dayao, who was sitting in the second row, looked hot. He had been practicing the pace of the big dream. Now, seeing Pharaoh’s pace, he feels even better.

   “Dazhi, did Brother Tiejun teach you the Plum Blossom Step?” he asked Dazhi next to him.

   “No, I heard that Brother Tiejun is teaching Kobe.” Dazhi shook his head.

   “Then I want to learn.” Dayao laughed.

  Dazhi shook his head and said, “I asked, and he said we didn’t fit in.”

  Dayao said disappointedly: “Why?”

Dazhi explained: “Brother Tie Jun said that the use of the plum blossom step should be combined with ball control, the ability to combine the ball and the ball should not be too bad, and because our center of gravity is too high and the dribble height is too high, it is easy to be intercepted by others. , so not suitable.

   He has the basics of passing martial arts, his center of gravity is lower than ours, his arms are longer than us, his dribbling height is lower than ours, and it is not easy to be stolen by others. ”

   “Then I’ll still practice the pace of the big dream, that one doesn’t need to dribble very much.” Dayao could only nod his head in disappointment.

“boom!”

   On the field, Pharaoh missed the first penalty.

   Dunleavy stared closely at Old K on the sidelines. If he missed the second free throw, he decided to play a dozen foul tactics today.

   But no matter what, foul tactics must also be used, otherwise there is no way to make Big Dream and Duncan rotate.

  Pharaoh stood at the free throw line, dribbled the ball six times, took a deep breath, stared at the hoop and threw the ball out.

   Dayao in the audience held his breath and secretly helped out, hoping that Brother Tie Jun could hit the second penalty.

“boom!”

   Missed the second free throw and the ball was a little longer.

“Hey!”

   Dayao couldn’t help sighing.

For a long time, Wang Tiejun has been invincible in his mind. He can defeat any powerful opponent at his fingertips. One super center after another has fallen at his feet. Now, seeing Brother Tiejun standing on the free throw line, I feel that this is still the case. individual, a person with weaknesses.

  Duncan got the backcourt rebound and the Blazers attacked.

   On the sidelines, Dunleavy strengthened his determination to use foul tactics.

   This time, Duncan gave up the low post, pulled it to the high post as requested by the coaching staff, and played pick-and-roll tactics with Momo.

  Pharaoh followed to the high post and took a step forward, so that he could not only prevent Duncan, but also prevent Momo’s pick-and-roll breakthrough, and he could also return to the basket in time.

   Duncan’s high pick-and-roll quality is quite high, and Momomouse used the wall to get rid of Kobe who was replacing him, but suddenly took the initiative to rush to Pharaoh’s side.

“not good!”

  Pharaoh knows it’s bad.

   Sure enough, Momonga jumped in front of him and blocked him, but the ball in his hand was passed back to Duncan. Duncan caught the ball and made a jumper. Kobe hurriedly jumped from the side to block the shot, which was a big difference.

“boom!”

  Duncan hits a high jumper and hits a two-pointer.

  4:1, the Lakers attacked.

Zhang Lili praised: “This pick-and-roll tactic is beautiful! Momonga’s speed and flexibility made Kobe a little bit unable to keep up, so Tie Jun adopted a strategy of taking a step defense, ready to block Momonga, but he didn’t expect to be used by Momonga, come. Second pick-and-roll.”

  Su Qun said: “The Blazers played quite well today, the Lakers should be careful.”

   In the frontcourt, Pharaoh wanted the ball in the low post on the left flank, but it was still a dream to guard him, and he was also going around the front.

  The two were entangled, when Richmond’s ball came down from outside, and Duncan immediately pounced from the weak side.

   This time, Richmond, who passed the ball, did not sink the bottom corner, but immediately cut inside. He was faster than Walter Williams and successfully cut into the paint.

  Duncan was forced to stop at the basket, not only to switch to Richmond, but also to Fordson behind him, and his weakside help failed.

   But Williams, who was chasing behind Richmond, reacted very quickly and immediately double-teamed Wang Tiejun, so the Trail Blazers’ flank and low double-teams were still successful.

  Wang Tiejun wants to get into the paint area is impossible, there is a big dream before, Williams is on the upper side, there are Duncan and Fortson, and Richmond inside, it is full of people.

There was no room for his teammates, so he could only choose to shoot, suddenly started the withdrawal method, turned and stepped back, got out of the double-team, and retreated to the paint area one step at a time. At the same time, he completed the preparation from the back to the face. Hit the front hook.

   This belongs to the mid-range area. His mid-range attack is only level 80, so he was not sure of making a hit when he shot.

   Fortunately, Da Meng and Williams did not keep up with his rhythm, so they were actually shooting from the open position.

   “Bang! Boom!”

  The basketball smashed into the basket, jumped on it twice, and finally rolled into the basket.

   “Beautiful! The mid-range hook that turned and stepped back, Tie Jun’s shot was so beautiful!” Zhang Lili said happily.

   “Old K rarely shoots like this, and there’s nothing you can do. But this one turns around and takes a step back, it’s really beautiful, and it’s hard to guard against!” Su Qun said with a smile.

Zhang Lili said with a smile: “Although the technique of turning around and stepping back is not as good as turning around and jumping, it is also very particular about physical quality, coordination, balance, and flexibility are the same. , you can’t practice well until you get old.”

   On the court, Kobe ran to Pharaoh and shouted, “Old K, how did you practice your turnaround and step back jump shot?”

   “The use of plum blossom steps and hooks, you can refer to it.” Lao Wang said.

   “Really?” Kobe was excited.

This technique is too important to him. His core strength has not been fully practiced yet, and he has not enough time in the air. He can barely make a turnaround jumper, but he has to lean back a lot, and the hit rate is too poor to be practical. This turn and step back shot does not require such a strong core strength, it can be practiced completely.

   And the effect of turning and stepping back to get rid of the defender is not weaker than turning and stepping back. If it is combined with the sideways hitting technique, it will be better than the old K’s turning and stepping back.

  Old K can’t use his sideways hitting technique in the low post. He doesn’t have this restriction on the outside. Thinking of this, he is very excited.

   After the old K suggested to him yesterday, he has been thinking about this problem. Today, the old K’s turn around and step back gave him an idea.

   Just like old K’s relying on play, Jordan’s turnaround and fallback jumper, he also has to create his own signature skills.

   However, his plum blossom step has not been practiced well, and he still needs to work hard.
