NBA Ten Thousand Worlds Bishop

Chapter 287 Against Nigeria
In Davidson's plan for the new season, Big Zhi was indeed placed at the small forward position.

But if it is a small forward, it is not the traditional small forward.

Players at each position have traditional templates.

The player at the center position is the end point of the team's basket. In fact, the center's first thing to do in the traditional sense is not rebounding and inside defense, but scoring at the basket.

Mental tasks such as rebounding and interior defense are traditional four-position power forwards.

The second and third positions are the two positions that are completely responsible for scoring.

However, there are differences between the two positions.

Traditional shooting guards use shooting to score, while traditional small forwards use breakthrough ability to score.

With the development of basketball in later generations, in fact, these traditional position allocations have been abandoned, and the positions of players have become more and more blurred.

The most obvious thing is that the functions of the center and power forward players have been directly reversed. On the contrary, the power forward has now become the end point of the inside line on the field, and the center has become a coolie.

Dazhi will be placed in the third position by Davidson in the new season. The biggest reason is definitely not Dazhi's above-average offensive ability, but his unique exclusive skills.

No matter who is facing up, they can maintain a faster speed than the opponent.

This is very strong, and if used properly, it will definitely have a miraculous effect.

If Da Zhi is placed inside, even if he has a little more speed than his opponents, but the opponents are all clumsy centers, so what if he has a little more speed.

Besides, Davidson also saw Da Zhi's speed, which is as high as 81 points, which is a relatively good speed in the interior.

It is equivalent to saying that if Big Zhi is placed inside to match up with the bulky center, then this exclusive skill will not play any role at all.

And if he was facing off against the opponent's No. [-] position, Da Zhi's speed would be a bit scary.

A big man of more than seven feet has a speed faster than an outside player. If he hits the basket with this speed, he will definitely cause extremely terrifying damage.

The reason for Davidson's arrangement is mainly based on the reference to Kemp, the supersonic insider in the past few years, and Marcus Camby, who has emerged in the past two years.

Both of these two have the best speed in the inside group. Relying on their speed, they can flexibly look for opportunities to cut to the basket to score or block the block.

For example, Camby, judging by his block average data, is really a historic inside defender, but everyone knows that his defense is overestimated, and his defensive ability is still excellent, but his single defense ability may only rank in the middle of the league compared with those top defenders.

Now Davidson wants to give full play to the potential of Big Zhi's exclusive skills and train Big Zhi into a luxurious version of Camby.

To be precise, it is a luxurious version of Camby who is taller, faster, better rebounding, stronger in single defense, and better in offense.

Camby's offense is nothing special, the most effective is dunks at the basket, Big Zhi is obviously much stronger than Camby's offense, at least he has a good outside basket.

Such a big Zhi will definitely become the focus of attention in the NBA arena.

Camby is very popular among fans, mainly because he often contributes wonderful dunks and blocks.

As for Dazhi, with such conditions, he may do better than Camby in the future.

……

"Coach Dai, isn't this arrangement a bit risky?" Zhang Bin said with a wry smile.

According to Davidson's plan, the starting lineup consists of three seven-footers. How can this be played? If the opponent plays a fast break, the Chinese men's basketball team has no power to parry at all.

And there's no point guard on the field...

"Don't take any risks, let Sun Jun play the point guard. I have seen him play a lot of games. His ability to hold the ball and organize is very good. He is 198 cm tall and can keep the opponent's point guard under control. There will be absolutely no problem."

"Zhang Jinsong's defense and three-pointers are very good."

"Which team is your first opponent in the group stage?" Davidson asked, waving his hand.

"Nigeria." Da Zhi reminded him.

Davidson nodded, Nigeria is undoubtedly the weakest team in the World Championships.

It is also interesting to say that there are many black players in basketball, but the African teams are very weak...

Playing against such a weak team is just a chance to try his own lineup.

If the effect is good, Davidson can be put directly on the Grizzlies when the new season starts.

……

On September 9, the second day after the official start of the World Championships, the Group B group stage kicked off, and the Chinese men's basketball team played against Nigeria.

There are four teams in Group B, namely China, Germany, Nigeria and the American team Venezuela.

……

"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle to start the game.

Dazhi looked a little uncomfortable after his debut. Generally speaking, he has appeared as the team's starting center for the past two years.

Now that Yao Ming is here, Yao Ming plays the starting center, and he is placed at the small forward position.

Although Da Zhi felt quite uncomfortable, since this was a plan arranged by Davidson, he could only give it a try.

After he entered the NBA, he had to completely obey Davidson's arrangements.

The only thing he can do now is adapt to Davidson's arrangement.

……

The game on the field has already started, and Davidson suddenly saw a familiar NBA player in the opposite auditorium.

Olajuwon, the head of the Rockets.

For a moment, Davidson understood why he saw the big dream here.

NBA players were unable to participate in the World Championships, and Dameng was not idle. He came to the World Championships to cheer for his homeland, Nigeria.

To say that Nigeria's luck is really not very good. It is no wonder that the Chinese team, which was the third runner-up in the last Olympic Games in the first game, can win.

I am afraid that even if Olajuwon is present in person, Nigeria will hardly be the opponent of the Chinese team.

After all, Olajuwon is now too old, and he is no longer at his peak. It is difficult to bridge the gap between the two teams on his own.

Davidson did not enter the arena with the players this time, but as an ordinary spectator, so he never noticed Olajuwon.

Olajuwon also saw Davidson, his face was startled, and then smiled at Davidson.

……

At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming directly won the ball for the Chinese men's basketball team. Sun Jun, who played point guard tonight, began to advance with the ball.

The master of the Nigerian national team is a small player who is only about 180 centimeters tall.

Sun Jun is the captain of this Chinese men's basketball team. Nicknamed Tiger King, he has quite distinct personal characteristics.

In the national team, Sun Jun has always played the third or second position, with the third position being the majority.

The ability to hold the ball and organize is quite outstanding, which made Davidson think of a word-ball forward.
