NBA Please Answer 2007

Chapter 96 Ray Allen's Shooting Debut

McGreen couldn't help making a sound, his eyes couldn't hide his surprise, and then he said in disbelief: "George, you've evolved again!"

Hey, why use another?

The Eagles attacked again, Joe Johnson still held the ball, passed the ball to center Horford after the pick-and-roll, Horford had a range as far as the three-point line, and easily hit the mid-range shot.

Coming to the Warriors' offensive end again, Baron Davis analyzed the situation on the field while controlling the ball, and then raised a finger, meaning to execute the No. 1 tactic.

The No. 1 tactical core of this set of five small lineups is Li Zhi and Jackson. Li Zhi understands and quickly takes a position in the frontcourt. After receiving a pass from Davis, he beckons to Jackson.

Under the command of Li Zhi, all the Warriors started running. Jackson drilled from the inside, and Barnes and Davis double-screened, allowing Jackson to find a shooting opportunity on the weak side.

The moment Jackson was in position, the basketball was passed. Jackson felt the touch from the basketball, and suddenly had a feeling that the ball would definitely go in.

Jackson opened his hand and the basketball hit the board.

In the process of returning to defense, Jackson looked at Li Zhi in surprise. Could it be an illusion, but did George's pass improve so much?
The Eagles attacked again, and Josh Smith used Horford's cover to take the opportunity to make a three-pointer.

Josh Smith is an excellent left-hander, but his shot selection is extremely poor, and he has an inexplicable fanaticism for long-range shots. The basketball crossed the sky and there was a sound of "clang" hitting the basket.

"Not good!" Horford yelled, provoking Lahei to fight for the rebound.

But Li Zhi, who had been observing the landing point for a long time, jumped up from the left side and competed for the rebound.

Josh Smith also felt bad after the shot. Watching Li Zhi grab the rebound, he immediately went to form a double-team with Horford.

"Want my ball!"

Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "No way!"

After the Warriors saw Li Zhi grab the rebound, they had already rushed forward. Li Zhi swept across the field from the corner of his eye, and threw a long pass with his left hand without hesitation.

Joe Johnson was chasing after Baron Davis at the front, but felt a cold in his crotch instantly.Looking down, I saw the orange basketball passing through his crotch with great precision and falling into Davis' hands.

"Good job!"

Davis smiled, dribbled the basketball into the hoop.

"20:19, the Warriors counterattacked in two rounds, and they have overtaken the score."

At this time, in the commentary seat, Mike watched in shock what happened a few seconds later. Li Zhi sent out three assists in a row, tearing up the Eagles' defense. This attack even took only 5 seconds.

"George has really evolved, two of the three passes are through the crotch, and one is a long pass that spans the audience!" The fans said excitedly.

"I remember that George passed the ball well in the past, but it was just quite satisfactory. Now it feels different!"

An older fan said: "Of course it's different. George just passed the ball with his left hand! Left hand!"

The fan's analysis spread to the ears of the surrounding fans. Several fans subconsciously thought that the old fan had read it wrong, but after the referee blew his whistle, the Eagles called a timeout.

The big screen above the head continuously played Li Zhi's three passes, that's right!It is the left hand.

This is very surprising to the fans, players, and even the two head coaches.When did Li Zhi acquire the technique of passing the ball with his left hand?
Horford frowned tightly, and turned to look at Li Zhi who was on the bench. After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't remember that Li Zhi had the ability to pass the ball with his left hand!
Apart from doubts, Nelson is happy. Li Zhi has evolved again, possessing excellent passing skills. His deterrence is even greater, which has greatly improved the Warriors' tactics.

Back from the timeout, within 2 minutes, both sides tacitly replaced the substitutes.In the end, the Warriors still led the score, and the 3-point gap was not enough for the Warriors to establish an advantage.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Bibby made a mistake in the first round and Baron Davis made a steal.The Warriors get the ball.

Seeing the Eagles actively returning to defense, Baron Davis took the ball leisurely for halftime, Li Zhi received the ball again, his eyes swept over the Eagles' defense, feeling the rapid breathing of Josh Smith in front of him, Li Zhi launched an attack.

Jackson slid to the bottom line, got rid of Horford and received a pass from Li Zhi again on the right.

"It's still the same feeling!" Jackson confirmed this time, and Li Zhi's passing definitely made a qualitative leap.

A good passer can't help but analyze the form on the basketball court, pass the ball to the open space, and pass the ball comfortably, which can greatly improve the hit rate of the receiver.

Li Zhi's exquisite passing, on the one hand, benefited from the technical bonus brought by Ginobili's pass package, on the other hand, it was Li Zhi's excellent overall view and superb golf quotient.

Seeing Li Zhi passing the ball behind his back, Mike exclaimed again.

"Ginobili! This fucking looks like Ginobili!"

Every team has such a player who sorts out the offense, most of them are point guards, and some are forward players such as centers and small forwards.

These players are called the tactical axis of the team, and every attack knows that it must pass the ball through this axis. For example, James and Paul play such roles in their respective teams.

Jackson's mid-range shot hit again, and the Warriors maintained their lead 27:22.

On the Hawks bench, Woodson was like an ant on a hot pot, running around in a hurry.He yelled, "Switch! Switch. Williams go on George Lee!"

Marvin Williams is a good defensive champion, and the Eagles can still maintain a little defensive strength, and he is indispensable.

As the No. 05 pick in [-], Marvin Williams didn't show his matching potential, but he is a good role player who can defend any position on the basketball court.

Josh Smith's shot went wide again under Li Zhi's strong interference. Barnes made a [-]-on-[-] inside and grabbed the rebound strongly.

After seeing Li Zhi's performance for a few rounds, Baron Davis resolutely gave up possession of the ball and handed it to Li Zhi to sort out the offense on the field.

Li Zhi holds the ball.Slowly come to the top of the arc.

The top of the arc is a magical position on the court. Players, tall or short, can have a clear view of the situation on the court here. Many organizers like to stand in this position.

Marvin Williams made a standard pass defense action. Li Zhi's performance in the first few rounds was terrible. Marvin Williams subconsciously thought that Li Zhi would pass the ball.

But will Li Zhi let him think of his next step?

Li Zhi smiled slightly, raised the basketball and shot it. Ray Allen made a three-pointer!
Ray Allen's shooting is a half-body jump shot that mainly uses strength to make consecutive shots. Therefore, a distinctive feature of this shooting is that the ball is naturally completed before the body jumps to the highest point.

In Ray Allen's half-body jumper, the distance between his feet is very critical. Since he mainly practices long-distance shots, the distance between his feet should be less than that of ordinary standing, that is, the distance between his feet is slightly wider than his shoulders.In this way, you can effectively stand firm to relieve the reaction force of the three-pointer jumping and squatting.

Since he was facing the basket head-on, Li Zhi's right foot was slightly forward.The ball was thrown quickly, completing a Ray Allen-style half-length jumper.

In the NBA, the shooting movements of many stars are relatively obvious. Players such as Ray Allen, Kobe, and Jordan all have their own shooting postures, so this time Li Zhihao's unsloppy shooting made the fans shine again.
