The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 39 [Leadership Temperament]

Radmanovich was thrown away time and time again by Marion's speed, and Jackson almost went crazy, wishing to send Radmanovich to KFC to work part-time.He couldn't replace Ye Feng, that would disrupt all his arrangements.

Once the Lakers take a fancy to a free agent, they usually succeed, because the Zijin Army is the most successful team in the league.Radmanovich had outstanding performances in the Supersonics and Clippers. In 2006, the Lakers needed a small forward who could shoot three-pointers to widen the width of the court, so "Magic" Johnson and Kobe Bryant came forward to lobby The Serbian shooter in his prime signed a five-year 5 million contract with him. At that time, everyone thought that Radmanovic was the perfect candidate for the Lakers.It now appears that this is a downright rubbish contract.He has a height of 3100cm, has no speed in defending the outside line, and has no confrontation in defending the inside line.

Marion played well, and Ye Feng's dunk performance during the warm-up inspired Stadamar's fierceness, and he dunked twice after receiving a wonderful pass from Nash.He is a dunk player and has participated in the dunk contest twice.

With Nash, the Suns' offense is very smooth.Ye Feng couldn't see any space off the court, and Nash's random pass would present an opportunity.Under his go-between, the Lakers' defensive system is full of loopholes.For the Lakers, they relied on Kobe's single-player.

Nash and Kobe are representatives of the 96 golden generation, and their playing styles are two extremes.

Nash's team always has a passion factor, and his teammates are always growing.He has many friends in the league, whether it is current teammates or former teammates, whether it is the audience or the opponent's coach or NBA commentator, no matter who they are, they all like his character and skills, and he has almost no enemies. For those who won the MVP last season, it is a matter of course.

He puts the operation of the team first in his heart. As he said in an interview, what he has to do is to make the ball pass and the team operate.He puts the team in the most important position in his heart, not his own scoring data.If Nash took more shots, he would definitely be able to easily score 20+ points, but he is more willing to reduce shots and increase assists.He is full of trust in every teammate. Whenever he has the opportunity, he will use his ability to help his teammates succeed. He has a selfless heart. Teammates under the protection of such a leader are undoubtedly happy.

Nash doesn't force himself to do things, he doesn't rely on his own skills to fight his opponents, and he doesn't look down on his teammates. He is willing to help his teammates succeed, and he can still have a peaceful heart when his teammates' achievements surpass his own.Stadamar, Marion's dazzling performance, and Dior's rise are all because of Nash.As long as it is a player who joins the Suns, the data will definitely increase significantly compared to before.

Kobe is another kind of leader. His greatness comes from his personal ability. He is one of the players with the strongest personal ability in the league. He can decide the game by himself, but his help to his teammates is limited. Don't pass the ball.Ye Feng clearly saw his own shortcomings in the confrontation between the two superstars. He will never be able to practice Nash's magical skills, and it will be difficult to be as comprehensive as Kobe.He wants to set his own development direction on low post scoring and rebounding.

In the confrontation with the 208cm tall Stoudamire, Bynum was still tender, and Stoudamire scored 12 points in the first quarter.Bynum had only 2 points and 3 rebounds, and got two fouls. He was replaced by Kwame Brown with 3 minutes left in the first quarter.Kobe Bryant played the entire quarter and also scored 12 points. The Lakers were 24 to 32 and trailed by 8 points at home.

In the second quarter, Ye Feng, Walton, Vujacic and Farmar were substituted together.

D'Antoni is also aware of Ye Feng's athletic ability, but he can't keep Marion on the court all the time. After veteran Kurt Thomas left, their inside strength declined again.The Sun replaced Boris Diaw, veteran Sean Marks, Eric Piakowski, Stroberg, Barbosa, and also a full bench lineup.

The Lakers attacked, Farmar dribbled the ball, Ye Feng went to the low post, and Diaw played against him.Dior is known as a French magician. He has very comprehensive skills. He claims to be able to play in five positions. When he is defending, he does not die, but half of his body is entangled with Ye Feng, constantly waving to interfere.Farmar couldn't pass the ball to Ye Feng's hands, so he had to dribble the ball and hit it by himself. After several backhands, Kwame Brown hit Max hard on the right side, and the hit went wide.

Ye Feng lacks the ability to attack with the ball. It is not easy to get the ball in the low post. If he encounters a slow power forward, he can take the ball and play alone.But Dior's speed is not slow, and his height and weight are not bad. He is a little uncomfortable facing insiders who are similar in size to him.

Suns head coach D'Antoni guessed that the Lakers would focus on Ye Feng, defending the 23-zone defense, compressing the defense to protect the penalty area.Ye Feng is not like Kobe, he can't bring the ball from the outside to the low jumper by himself.

Stroberg got the backcourt rebound and Ye Feng returned to the defense quickly.After Dior came on the court, Ye Feng's most depressing way of playing was the high post support. He followed up to the high post, and Dior passed the ball.The speed of the Brazilian Lightning is amazing. He once won the best sixth man. He didn't do anything else on the court, just grab points. Brown didn't have a strong sense of defense and didn't try to block shots. 24 to 34, the point difference is getting bigger and bigger.

He had to find a way to score, Ye Feng ran to the low post to get the ball again, Dior defended from behind, this time the Lakers passed the ball in.Ye Feng took two steps with his back and turned towards the baseline. Stroberg actually let go of the defender on the weak side and double-teamed him.

No team has double-teamed Ye Feng before, this disrupted his offensive rhythm, his focus was on shooting, and when the opponent double-teamed, he couldn't see his teammates again, so he had no choice but to force himself. Pull out the shot and the ball goes wide.Max protected the backboard.

Jackson saw that Ye Feng was in trouble.D'Antoni's tactics were aimed at Ye Feng.Double-team defense, he may not have the awareness to pass the ball to his teammates.In this way, the offensive rhythm of the entire Lakers team will be disrupted.If Ye Feng can make a good pass, then he will admit it.

The Suns counterattacked and returned to the defense. Ye Feng yelled at his teammates: "Change formation, 32 zone defense, Kwame and I are under the basket, three people mark people from the outside, widen the range!"

32 zone defense, everyone stands in his own position, Ye Feng doesn't have to follow out.Wharton has his eye on Dio.There happened to be three outside firepower points on the sun field, and they were all blocked immediately. Barbosa ran to the bottom corner under the cover of his teammates.

Every defensive formation has its weaknesses. The weakness of the 32-zone defense is the three-pointers from the two bottom corners, which must be defended by inside players.Both Ye Feng and Brown's athletic ability are not bad, as soon as Barbosa got to the bottom corner, Ye Feng immediately made up for it.Barbosa didn't take a shot, he dribbled the ball and wanted to break through. Ye Feng didn't take a fake move and blocked his way.

Ye Feng also read the information given by the scouts before the game. Barbosa's strongest ability is breakthrough, and the three-pointer is not particularly accurate under the interference of people.

The sun is used to bombardment, and once it hits the ground, its power will be reduced by more than half.They lack players who can attack with the ball and rely too much on Nash's passing.Barbosa then passes the ball to the center.Diaw met Walton's defensive jumper and the ball went wide.Ye Feng believed that Brown could resist the old Max, so he directly chose to play quickly.

Sure enough, Brown took the front rebound and passed it to Walton.Wharton immediately passed a long pass to Ye Feng.The Lakers played a fast break.

During training, he also encountered this method of compressing the defense with 23 defenses.His way of changing is - run!

Barbosa was the fastest to return to the defense, but he was too short. After receiving the ball, Ye Feng changed his direction and dribbled the ball straight to the basket, scoring a three-step dunk.Although Barbossa followed, he didn't dare to stop him. 26 to 34.

After scoring the goal, Ye Feng returned to defense immediately, sitting at the basket, and the 32-point defense fell.Now it's the sun's turn to feel uncomfortable, and Dior's support can't be played out.Barbosa borrowed cover from a high position, and just after one person passed, Ye Feng stepped up.Barbosa chose a drop shot. Although he avoided the block, the shot was too hasty and the ball went wide.

Walton got the backboard.

Ye Feng shouted to his teammates again: "Kwame's high screen, Jordan breaks through and shoots himself or passes outside. Everyone runs around and finds space to shoot boldly. I'll grab the offensive rebound!"

The four of them were shocked when they heard this. During the timeout, Jackson arranged a tactic to attack Ye Feng, but now Ye Feng overturned the coach's tactic without authorization.And outside shooting is the way to break the 23 zone defense.Kwame Brown also has mid-range shooting ability, and the other three all rely on shooting for a living.

After Ye Feng finished speaking, he went to the low post. Aren't you double-teaming me and compressing the defense?Our guys all go to the high post to shoot.See how you compress, and guard against me alone.

Kwame Brown goes to the high screen, and Farmer drives around Barbosa for Walton.Walton received the ball without stopping, and gave it to Vujacic on the weak side.

The Suns were under the basket, and Vujacic was empty.He was able to get a contract extension because of his precise open shots, a flick of his long hair, and a beautiful three-pointer! 29 to 34.

The Suns' offensive end was once again restrained by the 32 defense.Barbosa is the first offensive point on the field. This time he caught the ball from the baseline, changed direction and broke through Kwame Brown, and went deep into the basket, but there was Ye Feng waiting behind Brown, and Barbosa made a short jump shot. Ye Feng picked up the rebound and shouted: "Fast break!"

Farmar and Vujacic ran towards the Suns half court together.Barbosa was slow to return to the defense after the jump shot. Ye Feng threw the ball from the baseline to the frontcourt with one hand and accurately passed it to Farmar. Here comes a dunk.He's an odd player, not quick or agile, but has a lot of jumping ability. 31 to 34.

The Lakers played a wave of 7-0 and completely suppressed the Suns.Jackson clenched his fists excitedly. Ye Feng's strength lies not only in his physical fitness, but also in his golf quotient.Skills can be practiced, but quotient is difficult to practice. Ye Feng yelled on the field and directed his teammates, which has exceeded his expectations and showed leadership qualities.
