Reborn NBA Gao Fushuai

Chapter 56 The MM Combination

Vujacic's current position in the Lakers has a bit of detachment. Kobe is busy expanding his influence in the locker room, and Vujacic only needs to do his own thing well.

In the evening at the Staples Center Arena, the game was about to start. After the warm-up, Vujacic did not go back to the locker room, but stood in the player tunnel, watching the Rockets on the court.

Of course, Vujacic's eyes were all focused on one person, his childhood idol, the number one Asian center forward who had been retired for several years after entering the national team in his previous life—the little giant Yao Ming.

Of course, now Vujacic will no longer regard Yao Ming as an idol, but this does not prevent him from admiring this compatriot. Yao Ming is really outstanding. From the point of view of talent, Yao Ming is definitely a superstar level, although he does not have Warcraft Athletic talent like Howard, but given his height, there are not many people in the world who can grow to 226cm, but those who can grow to 226cm can also play basketball, and have solid skills, flexibility, and high basketball IQ There are very few people.

The big bamboo pole Bradley who is three centimeters taller than Yao Ming is the most stark contrast to Yao Ming. That guy is passable on the court except for blocking shots. He has nothing else, and his basketball IQ is infinitely close to zero.

From the center's technical point of view, Yao Ming is also top-notch. He has half-blocks, hooks, and back shots. The rare thing is free throws.

Of course, the most criticized thing about Yao Ming is his lack of aggression. This has something to do with his personality. In fact, apart from the black big men in the United States, the center forwards in other countries in the world are not aggressive enough. This is probably a shortcoming.

This has something to do with the culture and the basketball atmosphere. It seems that Gasol is not aggressive enough, but to say that Gasol is not top-notch is a lie. In other respects, Yao Ming has nothing wrong with him.

Of course, there is also the body that was used up by the Chinese. National. Men’s Basketball team. He can’t be blamed for this. Chinese people still have a strong concept of playing for the country.

In addition, Yao Ming's statistics, especially not scoring enough, have nothing to do with him. His shooting percentage has always been very high, close to 50%. The reason why the statistics are not high is that the Rockets have not developed an offense built around him. The system is caused by Yao Ming taking too few shots.

Moreover, in the NBA arena, data does not represent everything. Yao Ming’s strength has long surpassed the data he obtained. Yao Ming stands on the court, and the opponent often needs two players to defend. Even the No.3 player must always be ready to make up. Defend.

Many players have good statistics, such as Bosh, but they cannot attract the main defensive attention of the opponent. Secondly, when Yao Ming stands on the field, the opponent's breakthrough players basically become jumpers, which limits the ability of many outsiders. The sudden players are very important.

Vujacic has always believed that the strength of a player, especially the strength of a center, is not entirely about statistics, but more importantly, the pros and cons of playing against other super centers. Looking at Yao Ming's career, against Warcraft, Bynum, Oden, Nene, and Chandler basically had an overwhelming advantage. Later, when they played against the old Sharks and the slightly old Duncan, they were basically evenly divided. This is the benchmark for judging Yao Ming's true strength.

Of course, in all fairness, Yao Ming's professional achievements are not worth boasting if he is not considered as an Asian, but this is due to health reasons. When Yao Ming was in good health, he was definitely at the level of a superstar. Those who think that Yao Ming is just an ordinary star are either extreme, or they don’t understand the importance of a center on the basketball court, and they don’t know that it is more difficult to practice a center in post-up singles than a flying guard. , This is the fundamental reason why a center like Chandler can get a big contract of more than [-] million in the New York Knicks in the future.

Analyzing Yao Ming's ability on the court, in fact, his strengths and weaknesses are very obvious. Everyone knows his strengths. His offensive skills are flawless, his shooting range is wide enough, his free throws are also top-notch among centers in history, and his awareness is also very good. Under Van Gundy's hands After training strength, the bottom line will be more stable. When defending against the opponent's inside line, except for O'Neill, in Vujacic's impression, there is really no one who can push hard. If Yao Ming can't be pushed, he can't jump. Come on, in that case, you can only compete with Yao Ming for height, but height~~~~~~~~~
As for the shortcomings, there is nothing to do about it. When God gave him one thing, he will definitely take another thing away. Due to his weak upper body strength, his height and high center of gravity, his athletic ability is also general, and he is stuck. Undead, catches the ball after moving, takes a long time to adjust, and double-teams are easy to form.

After being double-teamed, Yao Ming's passing awareness is absolutely good, but there are still these reasons, such as poor arm strength, high center of gravity, and general athletic ability. Sometimes the ball can't be passed, and sometimes it can be passed. The result is that the pass is not in place. The receiver has to adjust, not to catch and throw a good pass, so that the defense team has time to rotate and make up defenses.

Because of this, Yao Ming needs his teammates to have good passing ability to catch the ball. Even a power forward must have the passing ability to help Yao Ming break through the opponent's defense.

In short, Yao Ming still needs a high level of support from his teammates. Only one team can make good use of him to succeed. Vujacic believes that the Rockets have only completed 65%. Open up space, send the ball to his hands comfortably when going around the front, and at the same time move quickly when defending to make up for Yao Ming's shortcomings. The late Diamond Scola can barely meet this requirement. Of course, Garnett is perfect up.

While the three outsiders can’t shoot too badly in three-pointers, the defense can’t be a colander, and the opponents should have as few chances as possible to face Yao Ming directly. The defender must have at least one comprehensive guy, or the two can complement each other. A healthy McGrady meets this requirement, that is, he can break through and score, three-pointers and excellent passing skills, but his training attitude and injuries are too much. It's a pity.

But point guards were not good in Yao Ming's time. They can not pass the ball back, and they can't be as accurate as a three-pointer, but they can't be blown up by most point guards in the league, so they must be tall. None of the few point guards I have encountered is up to standard, and Yao Ming’s huge body cannot allow him to exercise for too long on the court at a time, so Yao Ming’s substitute must be strong, at least defensively, Uncle Mu is Yes, it's just that he is too old, he can't be a complete rotation player, and whether the Rockets have other big men, there is no way but to let Yao Ming play for a long time, and then there is no more.

To sum up, such a team is the team equipped for Yao Ming, and the Rockets have basically failed to do so. Therefore, the Rockets have never built a team with Yao Ming as the core, but only regarded him as a cornerstone player and core player. The role between players, this is the Rockets' biggest mistake.

And it takes a lot of money to build a team with Yao Ming as the cornerstone. The combination of Yao and Mai costs 4000 million, and the power forward and center forward need 2500 as a substitute. Plus some other things, it will definitely pay a big luxury tax. The rocket boss was unwilling at the time. When he had an aircraft carrier, he had to own other ships to form a super fleet, otherwise it would be useless to have an aircraft carrier.

In the first four years of the Yao-Mai combination, I was reluctant to spend it. It was too late when I realized it. Vujacic, who was an NBA fan in his previous life, can only express that he is really speechless!
A big man like Yao Ming is wanted by almost everyone in the NBA. In his previous life, Vujacic also heard that the Lakers planned to introduce Yao Ming to partner with Kobe. Not so many years.

Vujacic will one day go it alone. At that time, if a big man like Yao Ming can shield him from the wind and rain in the paint, he can laugh out loud just thinking about it.

Thinking of this, Vujacic couldn't help but began to envy another light source who was warming up on the court at this time - Tracy McGrady!
Don't look at that guy's lazy look, if you really want to select the best scorer in the league, McGrady will definitely be on the list, and the ranking will definitely not be low.

Someone once made an all-round comparison of the two scoring madmen in the league, McGrady and Kobe, and the final result was that the two were evenly matched.

The first is physical fitness. McGrady's height of 206cm has a great advantage when facing a small forward. Kobe's height is generally at a significant disadvantage when facing opponents with tall arms and long arms. In terms of strength, the strength of the two is similar. Tracy McGrady was young Strength is even slightly better than Kobe's. In terms of speed, both of them have good speed, but McGrady has an advantage in comparison.

In terms of offensive ability and shooting, Kobe’s shooting is slightly better than McGrady’s. In terms of passing, McGrady’s passing is simple and effective, and his passing skills are still improving. Kobe’s passing moves are good-looking, but the ball is slow. Short distance and poor accuracy are its biggest problems, and the Black Mamba rarely passes the ball on the field, and prefers to go it alone in most cases.Dribbling ability, both of them are good at dribbling, and they are both capable of taking on the responsibility of point guard. If it is more breakthrough, McGrady is slightly stronger, but only in dribbling, Kobe is more gorgeous and has better skills. Scoring ability, McGrady is the two-time scoring champion after all, but Kobe's scoring ability is not weaker than McGrady's. Organizational ability, as a scorer, the organizational talents of the two are often overlooked. Compared with McGrady's skills and understanding The advantage is still great.

Game experience, both of them have played in the NBA for 10 years, both of them are rich in experience, but in comparison, Kobe’s experience in the playoffs is much richer than that of Tracy McGrady. It is better than McGrady.

If we only compare honors and achievements, there is no doubt that Kobe has the upper hand, but in terms of strength, each should have its own strengths. McGrady has the advantage in talent, and Kobe is stronger in technology. There are many deficiencies and areas for improvement. From another perspective, there is still a lot of room for improvement between the two. If two teams play against each other, the outcome of the game, who is stronger and who is weaker, depends more The quality of improvisation and status.

But if Vujacic is to judge the strength of the two, there is no doubt that Tracy McGrady is stronger.

In the previous life, there was a time when Vujacic was very fond of McGrady. In Vujacic's eyes, McGrady was the most standard at this moment, with a charming smile. However, the cruel fate taught him to restrain his smile and face it with a calm and indifferent expression. Ridiculous and questioning like ice sword and frost knife.

McGrady is always bleary-eyed, and his dance steps are dreamlike and blurry. His eyes are always white and black, sweeping over the opponent's head and shooting into the sky. Maybe it's because there are his beloved relatives and friends in heaven, only they can understand his loneliness.

He always despises his opponents, pulls up on the spot domineeringly and unreasonably, and bends his bow to the full moon, no matter in front of him is a stone Buddha standing on a high mountain, the mighty Kobe, or a bitter answer.

He rarely growled, but when he got angry, the Toyota Center, the American Airlines Center, and Madison Square Garden all trembled.

He doesn't like the media, and in the face of doubts and ridicule, he chooses absent-minded perfunctory and preoccupied silence.

He has been blessed by injuries all his life. No one can understand the lingering pain of his fragile back muscles, and no strong teammates stand up when he falls.

He used to have the hugs of his brothers, the warm kisses of his relatives, and a peaceful destination for his soul. However, God took them all away within eight years.

Who can understand Lone Star's blurred eyes, the loneliness in his heart and the haze that hangs over his gliding figure.

He has gorgeous lateral drift, incomparable dunks, suffocating explosive power, unmodified perfect step-back mid-range shot, full-force aerial bombardment, sharp breakthrough with white horse and long spear, and he doesn't care about scoring. , just watching that lightning-fast figure rushing straight to Huanglong is already a sensory and spiritual enjoyment. The jersey with sharp blood-red arrows sandwiched in the pure white light and shadow, who else can be more suitable for the Rockets than him? What about the jersey?

Whether it's changing directions while dribbling, turning around and gliding in the air, or changing the rhythm reasonably when attacking, he knows how to read the opponent's defensive level and rarely makes mistakes.

McGrady is born 1VS1KILLER!

Unparalleled leg reflexes and explosive power, recognized as the fastest exposive firststep after Grant Hill, besides foul pull and pinch defense, is there any other way to stop him?

Some people may say that McGrady's grades are not good. Before leading the Magic to the playoffs, they were all in the first round. Those who say this are simply jerks.

First of all, don't you know the lineup of the Magic back then?

The No. [-] star of a team has been unable to play for many years. Such a team has been brought into the playoffs three times in four years by Tracy McGrady. established.

What was Paul Pierce's Celtics like?The time for the Celtics to play badly should be longer than that of the Magic.

In addition, it is obvious that Pierce's personal ability is not as good as McGrady, and it is not just a matter of whether he can be fooled. Moreover, McGrady not only has two more first teams, but also two second teams. The playoffs are the team's failure. McGrady's failure, but his personal performance is quite exciting, and there are very few players in the league like McGrady who have a higher level of playoffs than regular season data all the year round!
However, someone can tell that McGrady is focusing on the regular season instead of the playoffs. Vujacic really doesn't know how those people came to this conclusion?

As for the scoring ability at the critical moment, it only represents the ability to hit the key ball, and it should not be confused with the scoring ability. How much did Robert Horry score at the most critical moment? How did Iverson play against the Lakers in the 2001 Finals? Those who chop melons and vegetables, do they have better scoring ability than Tracy McGrady?
Not to mention the Rockets' overall strength, not to mention the Rockets' poor bench lineup, just because the combination of these two people can play [-]% in the game, basically the Lakers can disarm in advance.

Yao Ming's dominance in the interior, no one on the Lakers can compete.

McGrady scored wildly from the outside, and no one on the Lakers could stop him.

overall strength?

stop being funny!The Lakers still have the overall strength of a fart. In the previous three games, Kobe and Vujacic were basically scoring points, and they were not close to the team as a whole.

Can you win?
Vujacic first drew a question mark in his heart!

nervous?
Of course not, Vujacic only feels excited, and it is only interesting to compete with masters. This is like a super martial arts master who has learned nine yin and nine yang. There is nothing exciting to say, his opponent should at least be a master with Dugu Nine Swords skills.

Vujacic felt very refreshed in the last match with Anthony, and the Tracy McGrady he met in this match was clearly a level higher than Anthony.

Another chance to test yourself!

At this moment, Vujacic felt that his body was shaking, not because of nervousness, but because of excitement.

The training of the Rockets was over, and Vujacic didn't mean to hide from the Rockets players who came over.

McGrady walked past Vujacic as if she didn't see anything, and walked over. Vujacic smiled and didn't care.

But when Yao Ming came over, he was startled when he saw Vujacic, and then smiled, a little shyly.

"Hi! Hello! Big man!"

Yao Ming didn't expect Vujacic to talk to him, so he stretched out his hand, "Hello!"

After a very brief exchange, the two separated. Yao Ming left with the team. Vujacic also went back to the locker room and stretched his arms. He was looking forward to the game more and more.
