Chapter 51

"Billups got rid of the parallel importer and came to the Pistons. His performance on the court has become more and more calm and witty. His good tricks are really hard to guard against!" Barkley clicked his lips, With praise.

This trick is a forced shot, using the change of rhythm, making a sudden shot, which annoys the defensive players. The feeling of being weak and having nowhere to use it is very frustrating, especially for Billups' sneak attack. , The hit rate is still good, and it has even become one of his special weapons.

"Billups' sneak attack three-pointer is very smart. How should James respond? He took the ball to the frontcourt, didn't look for a pick-and-roll, and chose suddenly..." Kenny Smith stared at every move on the field and explained loudly. Said.

On the court, James dribbled the ball to the frontcourt without stopping, and directly chose the middle to hold the ball and make a strong breakthrough.

Billups' speed is not fast, but his strength is very strong, his body is very strong, and he has a good defensive awareness. He is at the top of the No. [-] position.

In Lin Bai's previous life, in 2005, the Nuggets formed two golden shots. They were unstoppable offensively, but they kept breaking through the first round of the playoffs. Until the 2008-2009 season, Iverson and Billups exchanged After changing teams, the Nuggets made it to the Western Conference Finals that year.

And this kind of change, in addition to Billups's organization of offense, let the Nuggets have a system, the most important point is that he brought defense to the Nuggets, whether it is the assist king Anderson Miller, or Iverson, the scoring champion, did not let the Nuggets go further, not without reason.

However, James' physical talent is too strong. Even if Billups has entered the NBA's best defensive second team, he can't stop James' singles. Protect the ball back.

James knew that a strong breakthrough was not feasible, and the lob was given to the inside.

Big Z leaned on Ben Wallace, caught the ball behind the frame, quickly made a false shot, turned around and dribbled the ball for a layup, using his footsteps, height, and high release point, trying to pick the basketball into the basket in the basket.

Unexpectedly, Ben Wallace quickly followed up, forced himself from the side, slapped the basketball onto the backboard with a big hand.

"It's so beautiful! This is a textbook-like pegboard cap. There is no extra movement, and it directly slaps the basketball. The most amazing thing is that he can take off again and take off the rebound while blocking the shot. Get the offensive ball!" Barkley's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly.

Ben Wallace, nicknamed 'Big Ben', averaged 8.5 points and 12.8 rebounds per game this season. In terms of offense, he is only good at two offenses after grabbing the offensive board and scoring dunks. Because of his strength, he has no shots. Ability, free throw percentage is quite low, is the object of emptying and sending to the free throw line.

He was only 206cm tall when he played the inside position. This height still has a lot of water, and his offensive ability is too low. Therefore, in the 1996 NBA Draft, he was finally defeated.

However, short stature does not mean lack of strength. Just looking at offense, who would have thought that Ben Wallace could become an All-Star player?
In Lin Bai's previous life, in 2002, 2003, 2005, and 2006, Ben Wallace was elected as the NBA's best defensive player four times. From 2003 to 2006, for four consecutive years, he was selected into the NBA All-Star team and was an S-level defensive player. players.

His style of play is extremely tough, full of power, and he is extremely good at rebounding and blocking shots. It can be said that he is a defensive player who has a poor offense but can become a star of a team with his strong defensive ability.

Ben Wallace took off the rebound and passed the ball to Billups for a quick counterattack.

The Cavaliers knew that the natural speed was not fast, and a fast counterattack would be accurate. Therefore, they took precautions against this style of play before the game and did not give the Pistons a chance to speed up.

Billups used a wall-hitting pass to easily break the Cavaliers' strategy, quickly passed halftime, and formed a two-on-three frontcourt.

Billups advanced with the ball in the middle, Hamilton cut into the left side of the basket, James kept a close eye on Billups in the middle, Reese and Miles wanted to encircle Hamilton,
Suddenly, Hamilton, who stopped, ran back, passed between the two, and ran to the basket on the right.

This running position made the fans outside the field feel incredible and cheered loudly. Hamilton used the master's superb running position to tear out the offensive space.

Billups had a wide field of vision, his eyes lit up, he hit the ground directly, and accurately distributed the ball to Hamilton. With a light dribble, he picked up the ball and hit the basketball into the basket.

2 to 5! !
Hamilton's wonderful operation and textbook-like movement left the defensive players dumbfounded, leaving only Miles and Ricky looking at each other and complaining to each other.

Kenny Smith smiled and said loudly: "Hamilton's scalpel-like running position instantly tore through the Cavaliers' defense. The opponent was caught off guard and easily succeeded!!"

Barkley also nodded, and added: "Don't look at Hamilton's superb running position, but without Billups' pass, the cooperation between the two will be greatly reduced this time. The arrival of the arrival will add luster to this run, and both are indispensable."

The Pistons' offense was brilliant this time, and the Cavaliers didn't want the Pistons to be the only ones. Ricky held the ball on the right side and forced Hamilton. Near the free throw line, he hit a two-pointer with an emergency stop and a running shot, and returned the favor.

4 is better than 5!

Due to personal reasons, Ricky did not go with the team to play against the Hornets. After resting for a whole week, he was very energetic and in good condition.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Pistons attacked, Billups dribbled to the frontcourt, and played lineup battles,

Hamilton made a reverse run, cut the inside line empty, took Ricky for a lap, did not find a chance, suddenly slipped the bottom line, came out from the left side, Ben Wallace made a wall, locked Ricky under the basket, and moved no.

At 45 degrees to the left, Hamilton ran out of space and received a pass from Billups without stopping for half a point.

From catching the ball, taking off, and shooting, Hamilton's entire movement is smooth and smooth, without half of the stagnation, and the entire shooting movement is very standard.

With a clear sound, the basketball fell into the basket precisely, and the white netting made a crisp sound, and the netting splashed everywhere.

4 to 7! !
Richard - Hamilton nicknamed 'CIC King' also known as 'tear' like a scalpel generally tear open the defense.

In 1999, he participated in the NBA Draft and was picked by the Wizards with the seventh overall pick in the first round, playing alongside Jordan.

In his rookie season, he averaged 9.0 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. His performance was neither good nor bad. In the second season, as his playing time increased, Hamilton averaged 18.1 points and 1.6 assists per game, becoming Jordan's most powerful player. assistant.

Coming to the Pistons, in the 02-03 season, he averaged 19.7 points and 2.5 rebounds per game. This season, he is still in good shape, averaging 18.7 points and 3.2 assists per game, becoming the Pistons' top scorer.

If in the Pistons, Billups is the team's heart and metronome, then Hamilton is the team's sharp weapon.

Hamilton's physical fitness is relatively average, with insufficient confrontation and weak explosive power. Such physical fitness would have been fatal in the guard position.

However, Hamilton took the catch-and-shoot technique to the extreme!
Many people commented that Hamilton is similar to Thompson, who is currently serving the Warriors. They do not need to hold the ball, have excellent off-ball running skills and precise shooting ability. However, strictly speaking, Hamilton relies on the ability to run like a marathon champion another way.

He is a player who runs non-stop. As long as he is on the court, you can see Hamilton running tirelessly and running all over the court.
