Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 198 [Hayes' unique trick! 】

After losing to the Magic and the Hornets one after another, D'Antoni's heart, which was stimulated by the gorgeous fast break, finally calmed down.

It is impossible for a team, especially a team aiming at the championship, to be without defense. The Suns have Stoudemire's super impact inside and Nash, a super point guard who can pass the ball without looking at people. Can't bring the Suns into the finals, let alone a rookie like the Bobcats.With three pitchers injured, D'Antoni humbly listened to Jeff Van Gundy's advice and decided to strengthen his defense and shift the focus of offense to the inside, with Hayes as the main attacker. The closer to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage. change theorem.

The Bobcats' schedule in January is very favorable. The opponents in the first six games are not strong. Except for the Celtics, it is not easy for several other teams to enter the playoffs.

山猫2008年首场比赛打出了久违的激情。115比97战胜了印第安纳步行者。海耶斯21投11中,三分球4投2中,罚球17中12,拿下36分11篮板4助攻4抢断。

On the 3rd, the Chicago Bulls beat the declining Chicago Bulls 104 to 91 at home.The Bulls are now relying too much on the perimeter for offense. The touch of Hinrich, Ben Gordon, and Luol Deng directly determines the outcome of the Bulls' game.This time they feel bad.

On the 5th, the Bobcats flew to New Jersey and beat the Nets 100 to 82 away.This is the best game the Bobcats have ever played defensively, but there's nothing to be happy about. The Nets have gone downhill this season.After Carter left, the Nets had only Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson to support the team, and the others were garbage players.Jason Collins, who can't attack, is a center, rookie Sean Williams starts at power forward, and Denakba, who was waived by the Rockets, has become an important scoring point for the Nets.

On the 7th, the Bobcats lost 88 to 95 at home to the Bucks.Reid and Mo Williams are two masters of chaos.

The Bobcats did a lot better in limiting opponents' scoring. Hayes' scoring and rebounding improved, but his assists became less and less, and he has not been able to make a triple-double.

On the 10th, the Bobcats lost away to the Celtics, who have been gaining momentum recently.People mercilessly found a lot of shortcomings of the Bobcats. First, the players are too young, including the coach; Switching defenses, always being forced by opposing players who attack in misplaced positions; fourth, players who cannot defend well without the ball and cannot defend against cuts; in addition, after the Bobcats’ fast break is limited, the offense will only score suddenly except for singles Yes, relying too much on Hayes.Finally, Hayes lacks charisma.

Fans once again questioned Hayes' ability. Although he is far ahead of Bosh in the power forward position in the Eastern All-Star voting in the new season, he is still not perfect as an insider.After increasing the number of individual strong hits, Hayes' height disadvantage appeared again. Even if he played inside and shot backwards, he was often blocked.

These evaluations, Hayes himself does not care much.

Recently, Hayes did not have a training session with his teammates.Instead, with the permission of the coach and the uniform team, find another venue and practice shooting with the assistance of assistant coach Moksky.What he practiced was not the general shooting action, but practiced "throwing shots" in 5 areas near the three-second zone.

"Throwing shot" is to use a master to throw a relatively high arc upward during the march when the defender is closely following the defense, and then attack the basket.Tony Parker of the Spurs is best at this trick, and the former Rockets point guard Alston often uses it.This is a shooting method used by smaller players against larger players.The main reason is to use your own movement to make the opponent also move and cannot jump up to block the shot, and because of the high arc, it is not easy to block the shot itself.However, it is difficult to guarantee the hit rate of throwing shots, and it requires a high touch, which is more difficult than shooting in situ.

On the other side, Gerald Wallace was replaced in the training game, sitting next to D'Antoni and asked: "Chuck has not been in a high mood recently. Why doesn't he practice with us and practice shooting alone?"

"He's not going to work on a normal shot. I heard Jordan say that he was working on a trick when he was in Los Angeles, but he was not mature enough, so he didn't use it in the game. Now we can't open the outside, Chuck thinks Practice this trick well and use it in the game, otherwise, if we continue to play like this, it will be very disadvantageous for us to hit the playoffs."

"He still hasn't used any tricks? What is it?" Wallace's eyes widened.Hayes' offensive methods in the game can be described as endless.Even LeBron James doesn't have as many offensive options as Hayes.But he still has tricks he hasn't used.

"The next game against the Cavaliers, he is ready to use it, wait and see. Jordan said that if Hayes can guarantee the hit rate, even if the opponent double-teams, don't try to guard him easily."

Hayes' trick, is throwing it?But this trick is often used by defenders after breaking into the inside, and it seems to be nothing special.

As soon as Hayes carried out a boring practice, in five positions, one-handed throwing the ball into the basket again and again, he felt better and better.

Hold the ball with both hands relaxed, with both feet in front of the basket, use the inertia to send the ball out, point the hand directly to the direction of the basket and release the ball quickly, the fingers are the last to leave the ball when shooting, remember this feeling.Gently push... Hayes thought about the trick.When he was isolating Odom in Los Angeles, he often used one-handed shots and small hooks to make Odom lose his temper.In fact, throwing is a combination of one-handed shooting and hook. It is an emergency shooting method when the body is not enough to shoot and it is not convenient to hook. Therefore, the basic skills are solid, and throwing is actually not difficult.This is a pure touch attack.

When Jordan watched Hayes practice in Los Angeles, he once brought up a shortcoming of Hayes.Although he knows a lot of things, as long as he is thoroughly studied by the opponent, he can be defended.

Jordan told Hayes about his experience of fadeaway jumper, but Hayes' jumper is not high enough, and it is easier to be blocked when his movements are stretched and in the air. Jordan's stunt is not practical for Hayes.Hayes will also use Olajuwon's "big dream" footsteps, but it is impossible for him to develop Olajuwon's power with his inside footsteps.He's too short for his height, and his wingspan is only normal.As for other main offensive methods, Barkley's butt arch can only deal with thin inside players, and cannot break double-teams.After a season, every team has studied Hayes, and no one is so stupid as to find a thin player to fight against Hayes at the three-second zone line.

Hayes does not have a "one trick fairy" trick.

Among the active players, Garnett has a step-back shot, Duncan has a jumper, Iverson has a quick stop, LeBron James has a bulldozer breakthrough, McGrady has a pull-up shot, and guards have breakthrough skills. Hayes knows it all, but he can't exert his full power when he uses it.In the end, Hayes decided to create a trick that worked for him!
"Moksky, pass the ball to me. 200 balls, I'll try my hit rate today." Hayes stood on the three-second zone line and smiled.

Moksky nodded.

On January 1, the Bobcats played away against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Bobcats changed their style of play, and the offense focused on Hayes.Therefore, experts generally believe that the confrontation between Hayes and James will be more exciting than the previous one. ESPN broadcast the game live.Magic Johnson and Joan Barry commentate for the game.

Before the start of the game, Jumbari said: "After the Bobcats lacked Calderon and Bargnani, the perimeter offense has dropped a notch. Recently, Hayes' average assists per game has dropped to 8.2. What do you think about this? "

"Hayes has only been training in Los Angeles for two months, and I feel very good to be able to achieve the current results. The number of assists mainly depends on the offensive system. Now the Bobcats are dominated by Hayes, and the assists will naturally decrease. Just Like Kobe, his main task is to score, and assists are secondary. If he puts the pass first, it is easy to score double figures in a game."

Joan Barry said with a smile: "In the last game, everyone thought that Hayes would compete with James, but Hayes still chose to avoid as he did in the Rockets. When defending, he also mainly defended Gooden inside. After that game, people's evaluation of Hayes has dropped a lot, I think Hayes is still not passionate enough, and he prefers to give the ball to his teammates to solve problems."

"I don't think it's okay. James has a physical advantage. In the first few rounds before the game, Hayes got James' big hat twice, which had a certain psychological impact on his subsequent offense. In that game, the Bobcats had an advantage on the perimeter. , If Hayes does not pass to the outside to attack, he chooses to play hard, which is a stupid choice. But in this game, Hayes cannot choose to pass to the outside. The current situation of the Bobcats is not very good, and the team needs him to stand up and attack."

On the court, James said to Hayes: "The Bobcats don't want to win again today."

The Bobcats lost three players, and the offense was greatly reduced. James has absolute confidence to overwhelm Hayes and defeat the Bobcats.

"Not necessarily." Hayes smiled.

The starting lineups of both sides have changed.Bobcats starting: Felton, Azubuike, Gerald - Wallace, Hayes, Biedrins.

Cavaliers starters: Larry Hughes, Shannon Brown, James, Gooden, Ilgauskas.

Biedrins jumped the ball for an easy win and passed the ball to Felton.

LeBron, don't think the Bobcats can't beat the Cavaliers without outside shooting.Today I want to see if you can stop me.I will definitely defeat you, whether it is a team or an individual.Hayes ran to the low post on the right and reached for the ball.Felton lobs the ball to Hayes.

The Cavaliers still sent James single defense.Every time the two match up, James can make Hayes' data drop, and the Cavaliers have no reason to make substitutions.

Hayes dribbles with his back and James clings to the defense.bring it on.No matter what method you use, I will guard you down. I have thoroughly researched your technique!

Hayes moved, took a step with his left foot, and turned his right foot as the axis, turned to the middle and entered the three-second zone, took the ball and jumped backward...

He wants a fadeaway jumper?This was James' first judgment, and he immediately took a step forward to block the shot.But before his hands were up, Hayes shot without jumping to the top, throwing the ball forward with one hand.The arc of the ball was very high, it bounced up and down on the rim, and fell completely into the rim. 2 to 0.

James froze.What's this?A fadeaway? !
