I just want to lie down and win

Chapter 87 Show mercy! (The third update, please subscribe!)

"Brother Yao, one of my own, please be merciful!"

A while ago, Huo Song was still complacent about defeating Yao Ming with the jump ball, but he had no choice but to beg for mercy after such a short time.

There was no way, Huo Song used to hit Yao Ming with his low back attack, which was always unfavorable, and hit Yao Ming, just like hitting a tree.

No matter how experienced Huo Song is in hitting a tree, no matter how hard he hits it, he can't hit a tree!

Yao Ming's lower body strength was too strong, and his height gave him a big advantage over Huo Song. Huo Song hit his back three times in a row, but he didn't move a muscle.

"Underestimate the enemy, I'm still too young!"

Huo Song had a downwind game before, and the center forwards he was facing were not strong. Except for O'Neill, the rest of the opponents were average.

Sometimes, Huo Song even ran outside and bullied the little guard!

It is because the competitive environment is too comfortable that Huo Song can't help but give birth to the illusion of an NBA center!
Huo Song mistakenly believed that, except for O'Neill, he could play other centers.

So when he met Yao Ming in the regular season, Huo Song also wanted to prove himself and see what kind of experience it was to play Yao Ming with his back.

Fly may shake the tree!Not really.

But no matter how hard you try, there is still nothing you can do. It is really easy to make people feel powerless and frustrated.

Feeling that Yao Ming had been reaching out to cover his head, Huo Song knew that turning over and jumping would not do any good, so he had no choice but to pass the ball to the outside again before the time for the five-second violation was up.

Due to time constraints, Billups could only make one shot by himself, made a hasty shot, and hit the iron in the mid-range shot.

Huo Song was about to take off to grab a rebound, but Daben yelled at this moment: "Slot, slot, slot."

Huo Song knew that Da Ben was reminding him, so he didn't jump again.

And just when Huo Song thought that Daben would take off to grab rebounds, he found that Daben didn't intend to take off to grab rebounds, but also chose to block.

"What's the matter?" Huo Song was at a loss.

Soon, Yao Ming jumped lightly and grabbed a defensive rebound relying on his height.

Just when Yao Ming was about to pass the ball, Da Ben had sharp eyes and quick hands, and completed a steal against Yao Ming.

Before Yao Ming could react, Da Ben took off and dunked directly, scoring 2 points easily.

Big Ben's sudden steals and dunks really caught Huo Song by surprise.

After Big Ben finished his attack, Huo Song finally understood.It turned out that Yao Ming's body was too tall, and his core strength was insufficient after taking off and landing, so he would unconsciously hold the ball with both hands and swing down.

"Big Ben, how did you know?" When returning to defense, Huo Song took the initiative to ask Big Ben.

Big Ben smiled and said, "You should know the answer, right?"

Huo Song thought about it, and quickly figured it out.

Big Ben played against Yao Ming last season, and the All-Star was beaten like Iverson by the rookie.How could it be possible not to take this kind of shame and humiliation to heart?

It is inevitable to study the opponent. What is wrong with the opponent will be clear after more research.

So, sometimes reckless is not necessary.

If you want to defeat your opponent, outsmarting is often more effective than fighting against the enemy.

Discovering the opponent's weakness and taking advantage of the opponent's weakness can score more easily and help the team win the game more easily.

Don't look at Da Ben's rough appearance, but his heart is too delicate, just like embroidery needles, the needles are so beautiful!
As long as Huo Song and Da Ben get in position together, the other Mosaic players will not be able to rush to the basket, and the rebounds that should have landed under the basket will belong to Yao Ming.

As long as he can regain possession of the ball in a stable manner, such thankless things as grabbing rebounds can be done by Yao Ming.

Originally, Yao Ming's physical strength was not very good. If he consumed a little more in the first quarter, his influence in the next three quarters would not be so strong.

In just one round, Huo Song understood how to reduce Yao Ming's influence on the rebound.

Closer to home, it was Mosaic's turn to attack, and Mosaic played relatively simply.

Francis broke through the inside with the ball, and before reaching the basket, he passed the ball to Jim Jackson at a 45-degree angle on the strong side.

Jim Jackson was also a ball-handling big core who could shoot suddenly in his early years, but after wandering for more than ten years, only the basket remained.

There is one thing to say, Jim Jackson is the most stable pitcher in Mosaic now.

Not only has a superb mid-range shot, but also a three-pointer that is rare in this era.

Jim Jackson shot a cold arrow suddenly, and Prince reacted a bit slower, so Jim Jackson shot up and down, and scored 3 points as soon as he took the shot.

Huo Song saw that the Mosaic players were not returning to defense quickly, so he immediately served from the baseline and passed the ball to the frontcourt.

Billups didn't seem to realize that there was a fast break opportunity, and he didn't understand until Huo Song took the initiative to pick up the ball.

The Pistons lost the opportunity, and the first wave of fast breaks did not start.

He could only try again before Yao Ming ran into the restricted area.

Prince rushed to the basket after receiving the ball, but failed to score a jump layup. Fortunately, Huo Song was behind Prince, grabbed an offensive rebound in the air, and completed the dunk.

"Thanks, brother." Prince clapped hands with Huo Song.

Huo Song took the opportunity to remind Prince: "Yao Ming's speed is slow, we have many opportunities to play fast breaks. If Mosaic makes a shot, you immediately play fast breaks, and I will pass the ball to you."

Upon hearing this, Prince first looked up and looked around, then smiled at Huo Song.

Mosaic is one of the strong teams in the Western Conference. It has both internal and external skills, is good at defense, and has many veterans. It can be said that its configuration is very similar to that of the Pistons.

But there is one thing, Mosaic can only play positional warfare, and the Pistons can play fast breaks.

In the defensive battle, whoever can play more transitions and play more fast breaks will have an advantage.

The hit rate of fighting in battle is second.

Next, Francis dropped the ball into the paint and Yao Ming singled Huo Song.

It's not that Huo Song's defense was inattentive, but Yao Ming was able to throw the basketball into the basket with a small hook.

Huo Song could only pretend to be dead for the time being when he couldn't hit back and couldn't defend.

In fact, if Larry Brown lets go of Huo Song's shot limit, Huo Song can use Wiggins' shooting bag to punish Yao Ming with mid-range or even three-pointers.

But with only 10 shots, Huo Song didn't waste the ball.

After all, Yao Ming did not last as long as him. As long as Yao Ming makes a move, there will be no one inside Mosaic.

How Huo Song should play and how to score points is the same as usual.

"Tyshaun Prince scored two points with a fast break layup, Max should pay attention to the Pistons' transition!"

Huo Song pushed with his small hand and passed the ball to the frontcourt. About two seconds later, he got an assist.

Huo Song's passing level is not very good, but the general position can still be passed.

Prince has long hands and excellent running and jumping ability. With no interference, it is not a big problem to catch the ball in the frontcourt and make a layup.

In order to get assists for Huo Song, Prince basically made a three-step layup and played steadily.

Relying on Huo Song and Prince's bottom-line long pass and fast break cooperation, Mosaic's shooting percentage is slightly higher, but the point difference has not been widened.

After seven minutes into the first quarter and Yao Ming was replaced, Huo Song began to exert his strength and scored two consecutive goals under the basket, forcing Jeff Van Gundy to call a timeout.

However, after returning from the timeout, the old cat Mobley suddenly showed his strength, holding the ball and making two consecutive shots. Although he only scored 4 points, the Pistons were suppressed once they had just started.

Huo Song has limited ball rights, and the All-Star voting has already started. Hamilton and Billups need the ball right now.

Even though the two of them are in normal condition today, and it seems that they went out to fool around again last night, they still have to make a move.

Ever since, after the first quarter, 24 to 29, the Pistons trailed Mosaic by 5 points.

"What about your enthusiasm and aggression? If you can't strangle their offense, then take a good rest off the court!"

Larry Brown said angrily, but he still didn't consider letting go of Huo Song's shot restriction.

In the Chinese Derby, Huo Song must have wanted to show off.

But he made an agreement with Larry Brown earlier, and Huo Song is also willing to fulfill the promise.

Anyway, it's not yet the third quarter, the fourth quarter.

At the critical moment, it will be meaningful to play a performance that suppresses Yao Ming!

At the start of the second quarter, Yao Ming didn't come up at first.

It seems that Van Gundy also realized that Yao Ming has an advantage against Huo Song, and when Yao Ming is not on the court, Huo Song has a great influence on the court.

Anyway, Mosaic is now in the leading position.

Then put Yao Ming off the court first.

Once Larry Brown sends Huo Song on the field, then he will adopt the strategy of going against the general and use Yao Ming to deal with Huo Song.

Larry Brown seemed to have realized this, so after only a minute and a half into the second quarter, Larry Brown took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to replace Huo Song early.

Not long after, Van Gundy Jr. also copied his homework and replaced Yao Ming.

Seeing this, Larry Brown on the sidelines was not idle, and immediately gestured to Billups to lead the team to play a few fast breaks, and first let Yao Ming follow the return run to exhaust Yao Ming's energy.

This strategy cannot be said to be wrong, but the Pistons were already behind by single digits. After a few waves of panic and fast breaks, the point difference quickly went to 10 points.

Larry Brown was not in a hurry, saying that he had studied the mosaic, and if Yao Ming could not play in the second half, the mosaic would not be stable.

In other words, the Pistons had plenty of time to chase points in the second half.

But with the name, the situation is not right.

Francis and Mobley suddenly turned on the killing mode through mixed doubles.

Originally, Billups and Hamilton were a little helpless, but now they were beaten beyond recognition, and they were nothing.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Larry Brown hurriedly called a timeout, but it was too late.

After returning from the timeout, Mosaic played inside again. Yao Ming held high and played high. Facing Huo Song's defense, he seemed to be able to handle it with ease.

Usually, Huo Song bullied others because of his height, but today it was his turn to be bullied by Yao Ming, and he really had no strength to fight back.

Without the advantage of posting up low, Huo Song only has the ability to shoot and score. In order to ensure his hit rate, Huo Song can only leave his energy to other mosaic inside players.

Regardless of the outcome of the match, Huo Song still lost outright against Yao Ming.

This made Huo Song very depressed.

Aside from being depressed, Huo Song also realized that he should develop new means of attack.

Even if there is no limit on the number of shots, Huo Song will always encounter O'Neal and Duncan in the finals.

Huo Song has the ability to steadily score 16 points in a game, but he does not have the ability to score high on them.

To put it bluntly, it is very easy for Huo Song to score points now, and the main thing is to get the points.

To really play a high-end game, perhaps you can only rely on opening and hanging.

But sometimes when you encounter problems that cannot be solved by opening and closing, you need to change your perspective, change your thinking, and achieve some goals through your own efforts.

"I'm the No. [-] show!"
