The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 101 [Avoid the important and take the light]

This game is very formal, with staff as guest referees, using international basketball rules, the three-second zone becomes a trapezoid, and the three-point line is closer. It is divided into four quarters of 10 minutes each.

The referee blew his whistle and the game started.Howard easily transferred the jump ball to Kidd, and Kidd immediately passed James to start a fast break.Ye Feng expected that Horford would not be able to win the jump ball, as soon as the ball was thrown, he immediately retreated at full speed, blocking James' path.

The two faced each other as soon as they came up, and Ye Feng defended close to him, which prevented James from dribbling the ball to speed up. He dribbled the ball and hit his back twice, with little strength.James' back and body has always been criticized, and he hasn't practiced it yet. He is only good at breaking through the front frame.

James took the ball and turned from the right, Ye Feng hurriedly retreated to keep up, blocking the breakthrough route again.He knows how to defend James.There are two main points for defending James. One is to defend James closely. When he is behind him, try to keep him away from the basket and force him to make a jumper. Tall and powerful inside players should stand in a good position in advance, cut off James' hard-bodied route, and let his breakthrough fall into the pile of meat, neither layup nor pass, entering a dilemma.

James is not invincible now, and his lack of comprehensive skills is the biggest flaw.He lacks back-up singles skills, and only relies on his body to break through and hit the basket with speed. Most teams in the league can't defend against this style of play, but they lack strong defensive players.

James also realized that he couldn't pass Ye Feng, so he passed the ball.Anthony didn't know when he ran to the high position, caught the ball and turned around for a jumper, avoiding Aldridge's block, and the ball went hollow into the net. 0 to 2.

"Why did you pass the ball, hit me." Ye Feng hated watching others score the ball the most.

James smiled and ignored Ye Feng. He was always very smart in his game and believed that singles was just an offensive method, and there was no need to go head-to-head with his teammates in a better position.

The sparring team attacked the frontcourt, and Derrick Rose was in possession of the ball.His ball handling is very stable, and he possesses a stable temperament that ordinary rookies don't have. Aldridge pulled up to a high position, and Rose, who seemed to be slow, suddenly accelerated past Aldridge, threw away Kidd, and went straight to the penalty area.During the draft, experts said that his template was Kidd, which was too bad. There was almost no similarity between the two. Rose's draft template was more like Wade or Iverson, with amazing quality and an offensive organization.

Anthony immediately switched defenses and caught up with Rose.But Rose deliberately slowed down to let him catch up. Howard was still under the basket.The latter ignored Kidd, who was defending in front of him, and scored with a jumper. 2 to 2.

211CM hits 193CM, Aldridge will not miss this opportunity.Since he was a child, he liked Rasheed Wallace in the Trail Blazers period. Many of them, including the straight-arm fadeaway jumper, deliberately imitated "Roaring Tianzun".Kidd can't block him.Many people say that Aldridge is soft, has too little low-post offense, and his offense depends on the mid-range shot after the pick-and-roll.In fact, he doesn't go to the low post because the Blazers' inside partner Pulzbila is really limited. If he leaves the low post, he has no scoring ability. Roy needs him to evacuate the inside.

On the defensive end, Ye Feng followed up with James, he loves defense.The Clippers hired Thibodeau as their coach, Josh Smith, Matt Barnes, Tony Allen...all of these people are defensive champions, and Ye Feng has always believed in the principle that defense leads to championships.Defend first and then attack. It doesn't matter if you can't score, and you can't let others score.

Ye Feng and James snatched the position close to each other, preventing James from receiving the ball easily.Kidd saw that the opportunity was not good, so he passed the ball to Kobe. Kobe broke through through Anthony's screen, made an emergency stop and missed a jumper, and Horford got the rebound.Ye Feng immediately went up and down the fast break and started it before James, but Horford didn't make a long pass. He protected the ball and paused for a while before giving the ball to Rose.

The sparring team fell to the position again, and Rose and Aldridge played a pick-and-roll cooperation to return the ball to the high post. Aldridge scored a jumper, 4 to 2.The sparring team overtook.Due to his height advantage, Aldridge has become an offensive strength.

Team Dream 8 was attacking, but Ye Feng was still defending himself.James knew one thing, Ye Feng really went all out.

"Do you think this is the playoffs?" James asked.

"I haven't played in the playoffs, so I just defend like this in the regular season." Ye Feng said with a smile: "Let me see your skills? Why is it easier to defend against you than Kobe?"

James is the person who has been compared to Kobe the most.Some people think that James is far more talented than Kobe, much stronger.There are also some people who think that Kobe has more comprehensive offensive methods and better leadership qualities than James.Now Ye Feng wants to experience it for himself.

James wants the ball.Ye Feng deliberately let him take the ball and turn around.James didn't make fancy moves. He took the ball with his left hand and shook his shoulder to change direction to the right.His strength advantage is too great, as long as this hob-like breakthrough takes the first step, he can crush the opponent and enter the inside line.

But today James met his opponent.Ye Feng is not a normal human being either.Some experts pointed out that Ye Feng's template is James. His basic skills are rough and he is not very good at passing. It can be regarded as a weakened version!His strength is not much inferior to that of James, his speed is about the same, his explosive power is comparable, and his height is not much different.

This characteristic of him happens to be James' nemesis.He took a step back and blocked James' breakthrough route again.James changed direction again, but Ye Feng still blocked him so that he couldn't break through.James doesn't have many breakthrough tricks, relying on his body and the explosive power of the first step.

James held the ball for more than 5 seconds. Seeing that he couldn't see it, he chose to pass the ball to Kidd.Kidd hung to the inside Howard, who singled Horford, turned around and hit a hook. 4 to 4.

The sparring team was attacking, Rose gave the ball to Iguodala, the outside jumper missed, Howard grabbed the backcourt rebound, and landed.

When facing Ye Feng for the third time, James started to pick and roll.Howard came out and blocked Ye Feng. James dribbled the ball away and accelerated instantly. Relying on Horford who switched defenses, he rushed into the interior and scored with a one-handed dunk! 4 to 6.

Ye Feng had nothing to do with the ball, he immediately bypassed Howard to defend, but once James rushed up, he couldn't catch up at all.James doesn't confront him head-on, and Ye Feng can't say anything. No championship is won one-on-one by a star. It is smart to avoid the important and take the light on the court.

Horford and Aldridge couldn't keep up with James, and the sparring team switched to a 23-zone defense, which prevented James from breaking inside, but Kobe and Anthony began to play outside again.The game was very fierce. After 6 minutes, the score was 15 to 18. The training team was only three points behind, and there was no one-sided situation.

Aldridge performed well and scored 8 points.He played very smartly, making three mid-range shots from the high post, and Anthony also used his height advantage to turn around and hit a jumper in the low post.

Rose organized the offense in an orderly manner, scored 2 points and sent 2 assists, and showed no weakness in the face of Kidd.Iguodala hit a 3-pointer and Horford also scored 2 points.

The most depressed member of the training team was Ye Feng.He didn't take a single shot, the only statistic was grabbing 1 rebound. His one-on-one defense just made James feel uncomfortable, but James' one-on-one defense against him has already made him helpless. If his teammates don't come to pick and roll, he can't do anything. Get rid of it, James resisted him to death, it was difficult for him to turn around after receiving the ball, so he could only pass it out.

Ye Feng knew that it would be useless to think about James' face-up attack. He played for a season, and it was the first time he felt his speed was slow against a player at position 3.The efficiency of forced jump shots is too low, Ye Feng didn't try it either.The level of the league's defensive players in the future is really not a joke.

The first quarter was coming to an end, the score was 19 to 24, and both sides made substitutions.

Both sides are up and down, dream 8 Bosh, Boozer, Prince, Wade, Paul played.

The training team was replaced by Lopez, Love, Durant, Mayo, and Stuckey.

Ye Feng missed one trial shot and only grabbed one rebound and fouled once. Such statistics reminded him of the past when he first arrived at the Lakers.But Ye Feng doesn't think it's because of his lack of ability, no matter how good a person is, he has to catch the ball to display his power.There were a few times when he drove to the rim and got out of the way, and he was the last option on offense on the team.

After leaving the field, Ye Feng thought of a possibility. Last season, he stole Durant's Rookie of the Year award. Now that Rose is in the Supersonics, maybe he wanted to stand out for Durant and deliberately didn't pass the ball to him.

Ye Feng's performance was bad enough, but he didn't expect Love to be worse than him on the court.Love is partnering inside with Robin Lopez.Lopez is a blue collar and can only defend and rebound at the basket.So McMillan asked Love, who was playing power forward, to complete the pick-and-roll task of the Dream 8 team.

After Boozer pulls the high pick-and-roll, Love is facing Chris Paul, and the end can be imagined.Paul can be as aggressive as he wants, relaxed and happy.Shoot when no one is covered, and pass when someone is covered.

The Dream 8 team played a shock wave of 14 to 2, which opened the score in one fell swoop.

Love was replaced after 4 minutes of playing, made 2 of 0 shots, only grabbed 1 rebound, and fouled twice.He sat beside Ye Feng with his head down, feeling ashamed.

Ye Feng said lightly: "Don't worry about it, it's a matter of tactical arrangement. The Clippers won't let you defend pick-and-rolls, but your movement is indeed too slow, so lose weight when you have time."

Seeing that Ye Feng still believed in him, Le Fu was relieved.

Once the sparring team falls behind, it will be difficult to catch up.Most of this team is newcomers, and they can't compare with the old players in terms of controlling the rhythm.And the best outside shooter of the sparring team was Luther Hyde of the Rockets.Hyde was selected because of his good performance as a sparring partner in the past. His strength is really not good. His defense depends on his eyes, and his offense does nothing but shoot three-pointers.The point guard of the sparring team is qualified and only Rose, Stuckey will break through, Mayo's pass is average, and the organization is not good.

In the first training match, the Dream 8 team won 102 to 77, winning by 25 points.
