Chapter 246 raise a hand

The technical foul made two free throws and one throw. The captain of the Chinese team designated the free thrower, who was late and stood at the free throw line without hesitation.

For him, free throws are points.

The statistics of the NBA are so detailed that it is outrageous. Among them is the number of missed free throws. He has played in the league for almost 4 seasons late, and the total number of free throws is less than 1000. It is very rare, but he missed free throws. The number of times is actually only 4 times!
With this wave, the Chinese team quickly narrowed the point difference, and the two sides once again became within 10 points. The Chinese team still maintains a weak hope.

Except for the time when they lead by 10 points in the second quarter, the Chinese team is actually a chaser most of the time.

The three superstars on the outside of the US team are still difficult to deal with. After Kobe hit a few irons, he automatically and consciously handed over the ball to his teammates.

James and Wade also pose a huge threat to the Chinese team. The main rotation players such as Sun Yue, Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, and Wang Shipeng can only be exhausted when facing the NBA's super luxurious perimeter.

The Chinese team was able to cling to the score, all thanks to Yao Ming and late play.

You play for a while, I get a few points, and always lead the Chinese team to cling to the point difference.

But Yao Ming didn't get any rest time at all. The continuous fighting and several strong inside shots made his physical exertion further intensified, and the situation of being late was not much better.

Seeing that the Chinese team may face the possibility of failure again due to physical problems, the old coach K made a substitution that may be destined to be recorded in history. He asked Boozer to replace Anthony as the team's power forward.

Boozer played for a short time before, and his performance can only be regarded as qualified, but the old coach K believes that the Chinese team's main defensive energy is now inside and outside the three-point line. Players who shoot from a distance will completely destroy the Chinese team's defense.

As long as the point difference is opened to 20 points, the Chinese team will let go of the pent-up breath, and the US team will win.

Old K's substitution is very targeted. The Chinese team's current defensive focus is indeed on the inside and outside, and the defense of the middle distance is not enough.

But Boozer's performance after he came on the court was disappointing. He was obviously not used to the pick-and-roll cooperation with Wade, and he failed in two consecutive mid-range shots.

This wave of rhythm is really a timely help for the Chinese team. Unfortunately, the American team's defensive ability is not weak. They were late and failed to get a mobile phone from the outside.

The point difference between the two sides narrowed to 8 points. The old coach K didn't think there was any mistake in his substitution. He believed that Boozer just didn't find the touch for the time being.

But Boozer let him down again. The U.S. team cooperated on the offensive end, and the tactics were still relatively simple. Boozer pulled the mid-range and Wade to perform a pick-and-roll.

Wade has been at his peak in recent seasons. His mid-range shooting is actually very good, and his shooting percentage is even higher than that of Kobe, but being late will not let him take a shot easily. The defense is still in place, and knowing that the point difference between the two sides is not big, he chose to hand the ball to Boozer.

Because of Wang Zhizhi's slow movement speed, he can hardly keep up with Boozer's mid-range pick-and-roll style of play-in fact, in the original history, the Jazz has always been the Rockets' sufferer. The pick-and-roll eliminated the Rockets twice.

In the almost half-open situation, Boozer missed another mid-range shot. The Chinese team failed to hit the counterattack.

Just when the generals of the US team breathed a sigh of relief, someone from the Chinese team stepped forward, and it was Wang Zhizhi.

He failed to guard Boozer on the defensive end just now, but he had a chance to perform on the offensive end. Boozer's defensive ability is actually very bad. Wang Zhizhi easily reached a very good position, near the three-second zone Received a pass from a teammate.

Boozer is a standard power forward, but his ability to fight is not good. Wang Zhizhi is now many times stronger than when he was struggling in the NBA. He is almost the same quality as Yao Ming. Boozer was directly squeezed out, Wang Zhizhi A dunk at the basket succeeded.

The old coach K chose to make a substitution. He believed that the reason why Boozer couldn't play was because he was not familiar with Wade's pick-and-roll coordination. He also replaced Boozer's partner in the Jazz, Deron Williams. , trying to activate Boozer in this way.

His substitution once again gave the Chinese team a hand.

Under the guidance of Sloan, Deron played well in the pick-and-roll with Boozer. This season, he led the Jazz to 50+ games in the regular season. Long's superb pick-and-roll tactics, not his own strength.

He is a heavy point guard with obvious shortcomings. Compared with Paul, Deron's ball control is more simple. His shooting ability is not strong, and his success rate on the offensive end is relatively high, which is entirely because the pick-and-roll tactics have created many stable shooting opportunities for him.

In the original history, when Deron became famous, he had conflicts with his mentor, and finally left the Jazz, losing the bonus of pick-and-roll tactics. Deron quickly sank and soon had no ball to play.

Using a game data comparison method, if Deron in the Jazz is a player with a rating of 92 points, at least 10 of them are the bonus brought by the pick-and-roll tactics.

The most deadly thing is that Deron's defensive ability is not strong, at least in the current Dream Eight team, Deron's defensive ability is the weakest among several outside players, and his chasing speed is very slow!

After he came on the field, he was late to the defense, and immediately let late find an opportunity.

Late, who had been resting and recovering his strength for the first few minutes, was like a cheetah that had found its prey, suddenly came out of stealth, and used the pick-and-roll of his teammates to get a shot.

Deron was too heavy, slow to chase and defend, and the late tiptoe shot was super fast. It only took half a second to complete the shot and scored another key three-pointer. The Chinese team was only 5 points behind.

Back on the offensive end, the US team finally responded. Deron and Boozer played the Jazz's classic pick-and-roll. They attracted the defensive attention of the Chinese team. Deron passed the ball to James immediately.

The little emperor got the ball from outside the three-point line, and also shot on tiptoe, and finally returned a three-pointer to the Chinese team. The difference between the two sides still maintained a distance of 8 points.

But perhaps this goal is actually bad news for the US team, because he covered up the hidden problems of the US team.
