NBA Dynasty Sniper

Chapter 387 Is hacking prohibited?

"Flying Dragon, what do you think of the slashing tactic? Do you think that tactic is a rogue tactic? It makes the game fragmented. Is that a kind of harm to the game?"

The reporter didn't give up and pointed the finger at Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong was mentally prepared and said: "I suggest you consult the league officials about the tactic of killing people, if they think it is a tactic that is not conducive to the development of the alliance, then please change it.

In fact, this tactic has a history of decades. From ancient times to today, the alliance has not banned it, which already shows the attitude of the alliance. "

"What attitude?" The reporter asked persistently.

Zhao Dongdao: "Free throws are also a part of basketball skills. If you don't want to be cut, the solution to the problem is very simple. Practice your free throws instead of complaining about your opponent's use of such targeted tactics.

I mean, whether it's me, or O'Neal, we're facing the same rules, there's nothing to complain about. "

"But he is a big center. Have you ever seen a big center who is very accurate in free throws?" The reporter said angrily.

"Yao Min."

Zhao Dong immediately spat out a word.

This word instantly made the reporter speechless.

The press conference hall opposite is very lively.

"Shaq, you made 19 of 8 free throws in this game, and your shooting percentage was 42%, which is lower than the 50.2% in the regular season this season. Why is this? Is it because of pressure?" A reporter asked.

"In addition to pressure, there is also physical energy. My physical energy consumption is too great." O'Neill explained.

The reporter asked again: "If you can reach the dragon's free throw percentage, do you think the Lakers can beat the Knicks tonight?"

The veins on O'Neill's head popped, and he wanted to jump down and crush the reporter to death, and then stepped on a few more feet. He said, "I can't compare with Feilong. I'm a big center, and he's a point guard."

"..."

Everyone was speechless for O'Neill's rogue-like answer.

"Would you choose to take the potty? I and many people believe that it can increase your free throw percentage to a certain extent." The reporter said.

"No, absolutely impossible." O'Neal said firmly.

"Even if you don't win the championship, you don't want to?" the reporter asked again.

This made O'Neill hesitate, but he still said: "I hate that action."

His attitude quickly got a response from the New York media.

"Selfish Shark, he'll get L.A. nothing." The next day, the New York Athletic reported with this headline.

Many New York media followed suit and began to attack O'Neill.

The mainstream media in Los Angeles did not follow suit, but some second- and third-rate tabloids did, which put some pressure on O'Neal.

The G3 battle will start on June 6, with two days of rest in between. On the 2st, the Lakers will return to Los Angeles.

O'Neill's agent, David Falk, responded quickly and immediately contacted the media to start doing public relations for this matter.

"Actually, Shaq practiced that kind of free throw off the court, but it didn't work. After all, the way that suits Rick Barry may not suit other people."

David Falk's words were recognized by the fans and relieved the pressure on O'Neill.

At the same time, in order to distract public opinion, he directed the artillery fire to the shark-killing tactic.

In just one day, because old Nelson turned the man-slashing tactic into a routine tactic, the media quickly identified the man-slashing tactic as the shark-slashing tactic.

David Falk expressed his views on the slashing tactic to the media very seriously: "This tactic is a kind of damage to the game. It allows fans to only see Shaq being fouled off the ball again and again. Then go to the free throw line and people never see a full game again.

There is no doubt that this is the ugliest tactic to use. I think the Knicks' use of this tactic, even if they win against Shaq, is disgraceful and not a reflection of their true strength. "

On the 31st, the players rested. Old Nelson and the coaching staff had no rest time. They discussed it and decided to activate Danny Fortson.

Fortson has been injured for so long, and has been training with the ball for a while, but the training state is not good, the level has dropped by at least two grades, and he has been on the injured list. Now the team is short of people, so we can only let him come back up.

On the 1st, the team traveled to Los Angeles.

Accompanying the team to the away game were [-] away fans and wives.

At the hotel, at the request of the media, the Knicks held a press conference.

"Coach Nelson, Danny Fortson was activated and entered the 12-man squad. Does it mean that no one is available for the Knicks?" The Los Angeles Sports News reporter asked.

"What kind of logic is this?" Old Nelson asked curiously.

The reporter immediately said: "The New York media has reported many times that Fortson's training status has declined significantly after his return from injury. Let him be included in the squad. Doesn't this mean that no one is available?"

Old Nelson said with a smile: "Even if Fortson's training status declines, it doesn't mean he can't provide energy for the team. I believe he can contribute to the team at critical moments."

"Feilong, do you think the disabled Fortson can still help you?" The reporter turned his finger on Zhao Dong.

"Did you destroy it?" Zhao Dong stared at the reporter and questioned.

"Uh, of course not." The reporter was taken aback and quickly denied it.

"Then don't say that. You have only lost two games. Don't the media reporters in Los Angeles even have the most basic manners? You speak very hard."

Zhao Dong said coldly.

The reporter shut his mouth in embarrassment, and Zhao Dong didn't bother to answer his question.

In any case, Fortson's comeback has been questioned by the media. No one believes in his state. Even many New York media are doubting whether Fortson can help the team.

Not to mention, the press conference continued, and a reporter asked: "Coach Nelson, do you have anything to say about David Falk's attitude? Do you agree with his words?"

"of course not."

Old Nelson first expressed his attitude, and then said: "As the head coach of a team, I will only use all the tactics that will allow the team to win within the limits of the rules.

Mr. David Falk's words are his ignorance of this competitive game.Of course, he's not a professional, and I understand that, but don't agree. "

In the hotel, after the press conference was over, Zhao Dong called Fortson over.

"Danny, in tomorrow night's game, I hope you can show the quality of a professional player, and use your toughest defense and rebounding to prove that even if you have been seriously injured, you are still a qualified NBA player, not what the media said. You are a useless person, you haven't reached the time to retire." Zhao Dong said in a deep voice.

"Boss, I will."

Fortson clenched his two big fists and shouted angrily.

"Don't yell at me, save your saliva and spray O'Neill tomorrow night. Fuck, the saliva is all on my face."

Zhao Dong scolded.

"hey-hey……"

Fortson laughed awkwardly.

After Zhao Dong finished talking with Fortson, he called Ginobili and Marion.

This is the main guard in the regular season and the main small forward rotation player. The former fell into a situation of physical collapse, and the latter was mainly in poor form, which made the Knicks fall into a difficult rotation situation.

"Boss."

The two came in, called Zhao Dong, and greeted Fortson.

"sit down."

Zhao Dongdao: "Manu, how is your physical condition now?"

The two were ashamed, and Ginobili said: "It's still not good, my body is very tight and I can't relax. I'm sorry, boss."

Zhao Dong nodded and said: "This is also normal. You became the main force in your rookie season and have been playing until now. It is not surprising that you have physical problems.

Tomorrow night's game, you should reduce your running after playing. You also have spot-up three-pointers. Pay attention to my points. "

"Yes, boss." Ginobili nodded quickly.

"Sean, practice your shooting well during the offseason, including three-pointers, and strengthen your physical training." Zhao Dong said to Marion.

"I will, boss." Marion nodded quickly.

Zhao Dong said again: "Tomorrow night, after you play, if they continue to double-team me, then you should play more cuts. You have that skill and speed, and your physical fitness should be fine.

Coach Nelson said, I'm going to play on the wing tomorrow night, you can ambush on the weak side, ready to cut to the basket, watch my pass. "

"Understood, boss." Marion nodded quickly.

All day, Phil Jackson hid in his office, studying how to play the G3 game.

This is the most critical battle. If this game cannot be won and the Knicks get the match point directly, it will be over, so tomorrow's G3 game must be won.

In the first two games, the Lakers defended Zhao Dong with all their strength. At least half of the defensive energy was spent on Zhao Dong, but they still lost the game, which made Phil Jackson very disappointed.

From the Bulls to the Lakers, he is already the head coach who has the most experience playing against Zhao Dong. Now he understands a truth, it is impossible to defend against Zhao Dong.

Just like Jordan back then, Zhao Dong is not a person who can prevent death at all, neither Jordan's law nor Feilong's law is possible.

When a person's offensive ability is strong to a certain level, he can break all the shackles of defense.

He decided, in the G3 game, give it a go, only guard the penalty area and the basket, outside, and reduce defensive energy.

Of course, this only refers to Zhao Dong and does not include other Knicks players.

On the outside, let Kobe defend, and if Zhao Dong wants to shoot from the outside, let him shoot.

And once Zhao Dong wants to enter the paint area, he must strictly guard against it.

This is actually not a new tactic. It is to stick to the basket and prevent Zhao Dong from attacking. Larry Brown of the digital team has done this before.

Of course, Larry Brown failed, but it doesn't mean that this defensive tactic cannot be played.

On the offensive end, O'Neal still has to focus on the basket.

Only the most efficient attack at the basket can compete with the high efficiency of Zhao Dong, the efficiency god. This is an unchangeable tactical policy.

He wants to do everything possible to help O'Neal get to the basket more easily.

Kobe Bryant's wing breakthrough tactics the day before yesterday can continue to play, allowing Glen Rice to attract defense on the strong side, and then let Kobe cut in from the weak side, so that the Knicks can distract the Knicks' inside defensive attention through the offense of the two wings. Create opportunities for O'Neill.

After these tactics were resolved, he began to have a headache for the last problem, the hacking tactics.

This, he has no way to solve it now, and he is very distressed.

He was very surprised, how did that old Nelson think of using the hacking tactic as a regular tactic?
Generally speaking, it is only at the critical moment of the last minute or two that the slashing tactic is used. Now it is good, and the slashing is done all the time. How does this make O'Neal play the game?
"How to do?"

After thinking about it all day, until night, he still couldn't think of a way.

It was late at night, and he really couldn't think of a way out, so he could only let go of this problem and rest, which made him worry a little bit.

On the 2nd, the day of the G3 finals.

"Feilong, will you still use the shark-slashing tactic tonight?" A reporter asked in the visiting team's locker room.

"I'm not the head coach. You should ask the coaching staff this question." Zhao Dong replied and looked at the other reporters.

"Flying Dragon, there is a heated discussion in the media about the use of the shark-slashing tactic. They think that the alliance should ban this tactic. What do you think?"

This issue has been the focus of public opinion in the past two days, and the next reporter continued to ask questions on this issue.

Zhao Dongdao: "This has been discussed for a long time, it has been discussed since Chamberlain's time, it is not surprising.

A center occupies the most advantageous position under the basket. He is naturally more efficient than outside the basket. I think other teams have arranged some targeted tactics. What he has to do is not to complain, but to It's to strengthen your weaknesses. You can't take advantage of all the advantages, can you?
The league restarted the anti-isolation singles rules, and re-enacted some new provisions, which greatly limited some of my abilities and advantages. Did you see when my agent and I complained?No, I'm only going to work on my weaknesses, and that's my attitude.

As for whether the league will prohibit the implementation of this tactic, that is a question that the league needs to consider, not a question that I need to consider.

Personally, I'm not on the fence about whether or not this tactic should be disabled.If the league does not prohibit it, then of course the team can use it. If it is prohibited, then I have no problem. "

At eight o'clock, the two sides announced the starting lineup.

Knicks: Zhao Dong, Fortson, Rodney Rogers, Stackhouse, Ginobili.

Lakers: O'Neal, Ben Wallace, Glen Rice, Kobe, Ron Harper.

On the TNT live broadcast seat, Barkley analyzed: "Fortson was activated and directly entered the starting lineup, which shows that the Knicks urgently need his ability. The Knicks have serious problems with their rotation when Lyon is in a bad state."

"It's not surprising that rookies always have these problems," laughs Smith.

"With Fortson in the starting lineup, there's no question the Knicks need him on the rebounds, they need his defense," Barkley said.

Whether it is the veteran Willis or Gary Trent, they are exhausted in the G2 game against O'Neill. They may not be able to fight the G3 game. This is why they activate Fortson and let him start directly. reason. "

Smith said: "Whoever defends with O'Neal's monster for a full quarter will be tossed, let alone the entire game? Even if they can play, they won't be able to play much time.

At the same time, we can see that Feilong also exhausted his physical energy in the last game. We don’t know whether he can recover in these two days. If he can’t recover, then what is waiting for the Knicks will be another A tough fight.

As opponents of the Knicks, the Lakers actually have physical problems. All five of their starters have played for a long time, and this is also an opportunity for the Knicks.But in contrast, the Knicks, who have fewer rotations, have more serious physical problems.

So in this game, I am more optimistic about the Lakers playing at home. "

"Yes, the Lakers, who have home court advantage tonight, may really overturn the Knicks." Barkley laughed.

In the CCTV live broadcast seat, Zhang Lili was also analyzing the situation and said: "I think what the Knicks are looking forward to now is Fortson, whether he can hold O'Neal, whether he can pass his defense, and prevent O'Neal from getting close to the basket easily. Can it consume a lot of O'Neal's physical energy."

New York, Stern's home, he is of course also concerned about the game.

Of course, he is not concerned about the outcome of the finals, but whether the old Nelson will use the shark-killing tactics again.

He doesn't like this tactic very much. This tactic really affects the integrity of the game and affects the enjoyment of the game.

Another point is that the Knicks have played a three-peat dynasty. If they continue to win the championship, the fans will have a sense of aesthetic fatigue, so what he wants to see now is the Lakers winning the championship.

With such a strong strength, the Knicks still use the shark-slashing tactics that severely restrict the sharks, which he personally thinks is not conducive to the balance.

Some executives have already proposed to him that this tactic should be banned in the last 2 minutes of the final quarter, or the last 2 minutes of each quarter next season, and the rule of one free throw, one throw or two free throws, and one throw can be implemented, which he is considering.

But what he considered was that Zhao Dong was still so young, and the Knicks would still be strong for many years. The league needed a strong team like the Lakers in the West that could compete with the Knicks. Should stricter rules be enforced?
The Lakers are no better than the Spurs. He doesn’t like the Spurs. The Lakers have a big market like Los Angeles. What’s even more valuable is that there is no NFL team in Los Angeles. The Lakers have great potential in the market. Such a team needs to be strongly supported. .

What he is now considering is whether to implement a one-throw and one-throw technical foul for fouling off-ball personnel during all game time.

If this rule is passed, hacking tactics will disappear completely.
