God of NBA point guards

Chapter 155 Movement of the Restricted Area
In the TNT commentary seat, Robert Guida smiled and said: "Okay, Pippen apologized publicly, the matter about him is over, now let us refocus on the game."

Ringo Wilson nodded quickly and said, "I bet that Michael will break out in this game, he will definitely fight for Pippen, and the Bulls will definitely win the match point."

Robert Guida said: "Judging from the matchup between the two, Iron Fist evades Michael's defense very much. They usually use the pick-and-roll to get rid of Michael. In the last game, Michael also had to use the pick-and-roll to get rid of Iron Fist. There is no such thing between them. The tip of the needle against the wheat awn."

Ringo Wilson shook his head and smiled, "Right? Robert, do you think Iron Fist has the strength and qualifications to fight against Michael?"

"Then how do you explain Michael's pick-and-roll behavior?" Robert Guida asked.

Ringo Wilson immediately said: "Michael just used the pick-and-roll to catch the ball without the ball, rather than using the pick-and-roll to get rid of the iron fist while holding the ball. These are two different things.

Iron Fist is really using the pick-and-roll to get rid of Michael. He can't face Michael's defensive breakthroughs and shots when he is holding the ball.

Michael definitely has the strength and qualifications to face-to-face with the ball to explode the iron fist, [-]%, I never doubt this.

I'm surprised, Robert, do you think Michael and Iron Fist are on the same level in offense with the ball?It's an incredible idea.

You need to know that when Michael holds the ball, he never avoids anyone's defense, including Iron Fist. He is invincible in singles. That's why the league introduced the anti-isolation singles rule, which is an alternative reward for him by the league. "

Robert Jeddah thought for a while, and it seemed to be the same. He nodded and said, "Okay, I admit it. But in the last game, we also learned one thing, that is, Iron Fist's ability to mark is very strong, stronger than Michael's. Running without the ball, you can't get rid of him, you have to use the pick-and-roll to get the chance to catch the ball."

Ringo Wilson opened his mouth and closed it again.

At this time, Robert Guida said: "Okay, the warm-up is over, the players are back on the bench. Aha, Iron Fist is showing affection with his girlfriend, and they are greeting our camera together.

Her name is Catherine Zeta-Jones, right? She is really beautiful, super temperament, and a British star. No wonder Pippen can't stand the temptation. She is really charming and will become a big star sooner or later. "

Ringo Wilson couldn't help but said, "I don't know how Iron Fist tricked her."

"Ha ha……"

Hearing this sour sentence, Robert Guida couldn't help laughing.

……

"Victory! Victory! Victory..."

"We are tough, tough, iron-blooded, and we are fearless..."

At 28:[-], before going on the court, the benches of the two teams stepped forward to shout their respective shouts, and then all the voices converged into one voice, which was the shout of "victory" from [-] Bulls fans

At [-]:[-], the game officially started.

Jump ball, Pistons attack.

"Boy, call the pick-and-roll, or you can't live."

In the backcourt, as soon as Zhou Quan received the ball, Jordan stood in front of him.

On the court, Jordan didn't have so many scruples about Zhou Quan, and he just opened his mouth to talk trash.

"Go away!"

Zhou Quan leaned over and slammed into Jordan abruptly. With a crushing breakthrough at level 96, he began to rush forward.

"careful!"

At this moment, Ulrich's voice sounded.

"what?"

Before Zhou Quan could react, a figure suddenly appeared from behind him and snatched the ball away.

"Beautiful! Pippen got revenge. He stole Iron Fist on the field. This is his response to Iron Fist humiliating him." A commentator at the scene roared excitedly.

Zhou Quan turned around and chased after him, but at this time Jordan had passed him and received a pass from Pippen.

"boom!"

"Oh hoo!"

Jordan took the ball to the free throw line in a few steps, took off in one step, held the ball high, and made a gliding dunk, which instantly detonated the United Center.

"what!"

After succeeding, Jordan looked very excited, and after a roar, he shouted at Pippen: "Scotty, you did a good job. We will teach them a lesson today."

"Fuck him!"

Pippen immediately yelled.

"It's careless!"

Zhou Quan knew that Pippen's steal this time should have been premeditated, and he was always behind him, out of his sight.

After receiving the pass from Joe Dumars, as soon as he turned around, Jordan blocked in front again, and the trash talk came out: "Boy, God is in front of you."

Zhou Quan snorted coldly, and suddenly pushed the ball under Jordan's crotch.

"Damn! No, I was fooled."

The crotch was pierced, and Jordan turned around quickly, but at this moment, he realized that there was no sound of the basketball hitting the ground, it was a fake move.

"squeak!"

Holding the ball back with his right hand, Zhou Quan exerted force on his feet, passed by Jordan's side, and quickly rushed to the frontcourt.

"Michael should pay attention, Iron Fist's hands are not much smaller than yours, and his fake moves are very realistic." Ringo Wilson reminded.

Zhou Quan rushed to the top of the arc, Jordan had chased to the left level, Grant had blocked one step below the free throw line, and Pippen on the left wing was also shrinking towards the paint.

At this time, it is difficult to get in. If you go in, you may be double-teamed by many people, and the emergency stop jump shot is the best way to handle the ball.

But he did not choose the emergency stop jump shot, because Jordan must also know that the emergency stop jump shot is the most likely method he will take, and he will definitely strengthen the defense against the emergency stop jump shot.

His current offensive skills and finishing ability really make him have no confidence to shoot on Jordan's head. If he barely shoots, the efficiency will definitely not be high. That's what the Bulls expect him to do, so he must not do that. He has to fight back. Do it the way you want.

Especially John Sely can't play, the main lineup is not complete, scoring is more difficult, rebounding will be worse, every possession is very precious, and he can't make wild shots outside, as long as he increases his breakthrough points, there is a slight chance of winning the Bulls .

He strode across the top of the arc and reached the free throw line in two steps. Facing Grant's supplementary defense, he suddenly slowed down, pulled the ball high, and closed his left hand falsely, making a false throw of worshiping Buddha.

The next moment, when Grant took off, Jordan also stopped and turned around suddenly, squatting down, and prepared to take off and block the block.

"I knew you were going to stop for a jumper."

He is taller, jumps higher and faster, and has a longer wingspan, and Iron Fist does not have the technique of a fadeaway jumper. He is sure to block the ball when he is prepared.

"what?"

In the next moment, he couldn't help being startled, because Zhou Quan didn't make a quick stop for a jump shot, nor did he combine the ball, but made a second effort, dribbling the ball into the paint.

"Oops!"

He quickly started and chased in from the left, but he was already a beat behind.

"Oh, bad, Cobra and MJ have been fooled!" Ringo Wilson exclaimed.

Zhou Quan went in from the right side. There was a swinging Grant between him and Jordan. After killing Grant, he directly grabbed the ball in his hand and flew up to Cartwhite at the basket, holding the ball with one hand Hold it high, make a gesture to buckle.

Carterwhite took off to block the block, and at the next moment, with a flick of his wrist, Zhou Quan turned the buckle into a throw.

"Di!"

"boom!"

After the referee blew the whistle, the basketball hit the basket and fell into it.

"Ha ha!"

Zhou Quan cheered excitedly.

The referee also immediately made a gesture of a thug foul, two points are valid, and a free throw is added.

"Beautiful two plus one! Tekken's fake moves are very realistic. He is very calm when doing technical moves, which is his characteristic." Robert Guida laughed.

"brush!"

Then Zhou Quan made an extra penalty and the Bulls attacked.

John Paxson received the ball and was defended by Joe Dumars, Zhou Quan took the initiative to keep up with Jordan.

"Run, run!"

Zhou Quan chased after Jordan, and the trash talking made Jordan extremely angry.

Emergency stop, reverse run.

But Zhou Quan's reaction was super fast, and he followed him again.

He didn't change direction at all. After running to the left line, he turned and ran to the right line.

He reckoned that his nerve reaction speed might not be as fast as Zhou Quan's. This kind of short-distance change of direction on the flanks could not take advantage of his absolute faster speed, so he couldn't get rid of the opponent.

"That's right, let's do that."

After passing the top of the arc and rushing to the right wing, his speed had already increased, and Zhou Quan also fell one step behind him, and he shook off the opponent.

"Whoosh!"

Paxson seized the opportunity and passed the ball.

On the right-wing three-point line, Jordan received the ball, and with a squeak, Zhou Quan stopped in front of him.

"Ah!"

He sneered.

For him, with a ball in hand, I have the world. This is his self-confidence, absolute self-confidence.

He is good at off the ball, but even better with the ball, single play ability, 100% self-confidence, and someone who can defend him in single defense has not yet been born.

With a tentative step, Zhou Quan's center of gravity was shaken, and then he suddenly passed by from the left, and after Zhou Quan caught up again, he stopped abruptly and got up.

Zhou Quan tried his best to block the shot from the right side, but was far behind, and could only watch Jordan shoot over his head.

"brush!"

Splashes appeared, and two points were hit from far.

"Oh hoo!"

In the United Center, warm cheers erupted immediately.

Ringo Wilson said proudly: "In terms of singles, MJ is second, and no one dares to say first. So when he receives the ball, the offense and defense are actually over."

"MJ is really powerful."

Ringo Wilson smiled and nodded.

"Iron Fist, go to confrontation, don't forget your advantages." Chuck Daly shouted to Zhou Quan after the noise on the scene became quieter.

"OK."

Zhou Quan nodded.

"Confrontation? Huh!"

Jordan sneered, I can fight even the center forward, really think I'm afraid of your confrontation?
Zhou Quan held the ball and advanced to the right wing of the frontcourt. He was still going to follow the old method and do a pick-and-roll with Joe Dumars to get rid of Jordan's defense.

"Boy, don't you have a duel? Only a softie is afraid of a duel." Jordan challenged.

Zhou Quan's eyes flashed coldly, but he knew very well what he should do, and immediately responded: "Old boy, I understand 36 tricks better than you."

Jordan was taken aback, what do you mean?
At this moment, Joe Dumars' pick-and-roll came and stood on the right side of Jordan. Zhou Quan immediately backtracked and controlled the ball with his left hand, ready to break through behind his teammates.

John Paxson quickly switched defenses, but Zhou Quan had already started the first step. Under the 96-level crushing breakthrough, he was directly knocked away and reached the three-point line.

Jordan's reaction was half a beat slow, but because of Paxson's delay, he bought time for him, and caught up in time, passed Paxson, and stuck to Zhou Quan's right side.

"Let's fight!"

He sneered in his heart, and at the moment of contact, he squeezed towards Zhou Quan with his strong body.

Zhou Quan fought hard, without losing his center of gravity, and his confrontation ability was not inferior to Jordan, but under such a strong confrontation, his speed was gone, and his left hand was a little out of control.

At this time, John Paxson double-teamed and caught up from behind.

"Be careful," Joe Dumas called out from behind.

But it was too late, Paxson took the ball from behind, broke the ball directly, and then gave it to Jordan.

"Beautiful! Paxson steals the ball, Pippen is going down, Michael passed the ball!" Ringo Wilson shouted excitedly.

Pippen rushed down immediately. When he rushed to the right wing of the frontcourt, he received a pass from Jordan, dribbled the ball into the penalty area, and flew up. It was an extremely powerful one-handed dunk that detonated the United Center. .

"Today is very bad. Tekken has made two turnovers and two goals have been broken." Robert Jeddah shook his head.

Ringo Wilson said with a smile: "As I said, Sely's injury hit the Pistons very hard. They probably already thought in their hearts that they could not beat the Bulls. In fact, they probably always thought so, but Sely's injury strengthened. this mentality.

And Iron Fist was inevitably affected, which led to his reduced focus on the game, and mistakes followed one after another. "

Robert Jeddah shook his head and said: "The atmosphere in the United Center is very hot now, and the Bulls' momentum is getting stronger and stronger. If the Pistons don't fight back, this away game will be very difficult."

At this time, the Pistons called a timeout, and Chuck Daly wanted to interrupt the Bulls' momentum to give the players a chance to recover their psychology and morale.

Zhou Quan was also very disappointed with his performance, and was denied two goals at the beginning.

He knew that the morale of the team would drop, but he didn't expect it to start from himself.

His morale will not drop, but his mistakes have seriously affected the morale of his teammates.

"Feel sorry."

Back on the bench, he said.

"Iron Fist, withstood the pressure. It's still [-]-[-]. We still have a chance." Chuck Daly said, staring at Zhou Quan.

In fact, the two-to-two tie with the Bulls is already a surprise for him, and it has surpassed his performance last season.

In particular, Rodman's state is mediocre. After entering the Eastern Conference Finals, he averaged only 9.5 rebounds per game in the first four games, which is nearly 9 less than the regular season, only half.

Now Sely is reimbursed again, and Zhou Quan's offense is indeed unstable. He only shot 39.1% in the first game, and only 3% in the G41.7 game. Opportunity.

But this opportunity is rare. He hopes that Zhou Quan can get more exercise in the matchup with Jordan on both ends of the offense and defense in the remaining games of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Then, he said to Zhou Quan: "Today's two steals were both after Jordan caught up with your breakthrough and made a double-team error, so you need to pay attention to Pippen and Paxson when you break through with the ball. Assisted double-teaming.

The Bulls' perimeter defense is the strongest in the league, stronger than ours. You need to know that their two steals approached you from behind you. You can't see them. The opponents in the front are not scary. You need to strengthen your defense Opponents from behind. "

Zhou Quan nodded, and began to sum up experience and lessons. If you suffer a fall, you will gain wisdom. If you don't learn the lesson, you will be an idiot.

After the timeout, the Pistons served from the left line of the frontcourt.

Jordan ran after Zhou Quan, this guy wouldn't let him catch the ball, and he wouldn't let this damn rookie catch the ball, and used Zhou Quan's method to deal with him.

Zhou Quan's reaction was very direct and effective. When he entered the restricted area, he wanted to use the crowd to perform a pick-and-roll and take the opportunity to get rid of Jordan.

In the crowd, he is more free than Jordan, reacts faster, has a better ability to use small spaces, and moves faster in small areas.

Under the full-level vision, he clearly saw all the players on both sides of the penalty area, and also saw the spaces and gaps that could be used.

Inserting between Bedford and Cartwhite on the left waist, when Jordan followed, Bedford blocked it intentionally. After Jordan passed, he was already slow and lost two steps.

He veered up again, cutting between Rodman and Grant below the free throw line, and when he ran up from the free throw line, Ulrich, who was serving, immediately passed the ball.

He ran to the top of the arc to receive the ball, and suddenly found that he had easily got an open spot. Jordan, who was chasing him, was blocked by Rodman, who was still three meters away from him.

There is no hesitation here, he calmly shot a jumper at the top of the arc.

"brush!"

Splashes appeared, and a three-pointer hit a wide open.

"Oh, this off-the-ball movement is beautiful! Continuous interspersed, continuous pick-and-roll, Iron Fist completely threw off Jordan's pursuit and defense." Robert Jeddah said excitedly.

Ringo Wilson shook his head and said, "Whether it's Bedford or Rodman, their covering actions are suspected of fouling."

Robert Guida smiled and said: "Maybe there is, but the referee didn't blow it, and the ball will be counted. Of course, there is indeed a suspicion of moving the pick-and-roll."

Ringo Wilson didn't delve into this issue, and continued: "This tactical movement is a bit like the previous double pick-and-roll tactics."

Robert Guida said: "But it's not. The double pick-and-roll tactic is that two players of one's own side set up a pick-and-roll for the running player and block the chasing defender by closing the door. Just now, whether it was Bedford or Rodman, they were just one person."

On the sidelines, Chuck Daly was thoughtful.

It was only in the last game that he really saw Zhou Quan's ability to move in the penalty area. In terms of absolute speed, Zhou Quan was not fast, but in the penalty area, even Jordan couldn't get rid of his pursuit.

And the off-the-ball running position just now, the wide open three-pointer at the top of the arc, once again let him see Zhou Quan's mobility in the penalty area.

So can he use Zhou Quan's ability to design some tactics?

As for Zhou Quan's shot just now, he didn't think it was very good, because everyone left the basket. If he didn't make a shot, the offensive rebound would most likely be lost.

Moreover, the ball did not call a cover foul, which surprised him a bit. This is the Bulls' home court.
