I'm really good at shooting.

Especially Navarro, who averaged 11.8 points and 2.6 assists per game, has already demonstrated the strength of the top defenders in Europe.

Real Madrid's away game fell into a passive situation at the beginning of the game.

They were chasing points all night, and the confrontation on the court was extremely fierce, and people turned their backs from time to time.

Until the final quarter, as Sun Hao found the outside touch and scored two three-pointers in a row, Real Madrid tied the score.

In the final decisive stage, the confrontation on the field became more and more intense.

It was at this time that an accident occurred on the field. Prigioni sprained his ankle while defending and was assisted by the team doctor to leave the field.

Prigioni left the field, the strength of the back line plummeted, and Real Madrid also regretted losing the game.

And worse than the loss, Prigioni's MRI report was positive after the game, and his ankle was sprained, and he is expected to be absent for 2 to 3 months.

This is definitely bad news for Real Madrid.

However, recalling that Prigioni was also absent for a month due to injury last season, with glass attributes, he played harder this season, and the injury was not entirely an accident.

The problem is that this time the injury has been absent for too long.

And the last time Prigioni was injured, the team discovered Sun Hao, but it is difficult to have a second one this year.

Russo's coaching will also face challenges. How to arrange troops is the focus of his next consideration.

Russo's initial strategy was to use the double point guard tactic, with Lopez and Sun Hao partnering to play the starting backcourt.

But this effect is not good.

In the game against Bilbao, although they won the game in the end, the defenders on the opposite side scored a full 30 points.

There is no problem with the offensive end of the two partners, but the problem is defensive.

They are all short in height, not only being caught and beaten by the opponent, but also limited to the interference of the opponent's outside line of sight.

Russo insisted on using another game, but facing the stronger Manresa team, not only was their perimeter defense exploded, but the team also lost.

Fortunately, Russo's reaction ability is very fast. After trying two games, he chose to give up and put the original shooting guard Trinidad back in the starting lineup.

Trinidad's defensive ability is good, but the outside shooting ability is almost non-existent.

Such a partner means that the team's outside offense depends entirely on Sun Hao.

Sun Hao lived up to Lasso's expectations.

While he's not as good a passer as Prigioni, he has a silver basketball IQ badge and is no slouch in playmaking.

Of course, the most important thing is that he can score!

He scored 19 points against Mecia and led the team to victory, scored 22 points against Burgos to tie the scoring record in a single game and led the team to a winning streak. Although he lost the game against Teslami, he broke the single game again Scoring record, slashed 25 points!

With his continuous scoring, the scoring records of players under the age of 18 in La Liga have been refreshed by him again and again.

After a week of games, he averaged 22 points per game!

Such a performance in La Liga, and even the entire European league is crazy!

The nickname of Napoleon in China has not only been limited to Spain, but has begun to sweep across the entire European continent.

You must know that Sun Hao is not yet 18 years old!

And his scoring method that has never been seen before has created an unprecedented whirlwind in Europe.

Fans flocked to the stadium just to watch his scoring performance!

Some fans even imitated his style of play on the field and frequently fired shots from the outside!

Even, in the next game against Obadolu, scouts from the NCAA University of Connecticut and the NBA Spurs appeared on the sidelines!

The University of Connecticut is known for producing high-quality outside shooters, and young players with excellent projection like Sun Hao are their key recruiting targets.

As for the Spurs, overseas players are their favorites!

Sun Hao will be 18 years old after this season, and such crazy performance deserves their attention.

Sun Hao continued his fiery form in this game, hitting 6 three-pointers from the outside and scoring 26 points, setting a new personal La Liga scoring record again!

For three games in a row, Sun Hao proved one thing to the fans: records are meant to be broken!

After the game, scouts from UConn and the Spurs both came to the locker room.

The two had obviously communicated before they came, and they also sent invitations to Sun Hao one after the other.

"We want you to come to UConn and we'll give you a full scholarship."

"We want you to have a workout for the Spurs before this year's draft, and I understand you'll be 18 before the draft."

The two invitations are exactly the same as when they finished the domestic high school finals.

The difference is that one invitation is a full scholarship, and the other is a trial training for an NBA team!

Compared with before, these two invitations are obviously much more lucrative.

Chapter 40 "The First Step to Master"

Sun Hao has long set the goal of going to the NBA to complete the five-year contract, and the NCAA is not in his consideration.

But he didn't make it clear. After all, even the Spurs just gave him a trial training opportunity.

This kind of trial training, an NBA team will find many people before the draft every year.

If he really wants to enter the NBA, he has to do more.

After giving a vague answer, and exchanging contact information with both of them, Sun Hao also devoted himself to the competition.

However, in the next game against Messia, he encountered Waterloo just like the real Napoleon.

He made 6 of 1 shots from beyond the three-point line and scored 11 points only by free throws and fast breaks.

Just as James occasionally walks, it's impossible for the greatest shooter to hit the rim every night.

More importantly, after a week of crazy performances, opponents obviously began to study and target him.

It is difficult for him to receive the ball comfortably during the game, and even if he receives the ball, he will soon be double-teamed.

Because the partner Trinidad in the backcourt has no three-point ability, this kind of double-teaming lasted almost all night.

Sun Hao was tightly wrapped by two big men most of the time.

This is the first time Jean has received such "super" defensive treatment in La Liga.

This also shows one thing, he is now treated as a superstar.

Shouting "I'm not a star, don't double-team me" is definitely unrealistic. What he needs to do is how to break this kind of defense.

There are two ways to break the double-team: one is to break through, to complete the attack before the double-team is formed, which is simple and rude;

The other is to pass the ball, allowing teammates to form a 4-on-3 opportunity.

There are many ways to break through, Irving with fancy dribbling, Antetokounmpo with physical confrontation, Doncic with rhythm change, Anthony with three threats and so on.

Sun Hao foresaw this situation last season and started training in the system as early as possible.

What he practiced was the first step in the breakthrough.

There are many players in the NBA who rely on the first step to break through. The most typical representative players are Rose, Wade, and Tracy McGrady.

The reason why Sun Hao chose this breakthrough method is because it can be combined with his three-point ability.

If you double-team, I will break through you before grabbing the double-team;

If you don't double-team, I may shoot directly from the outside.

This is tantamount to giving the defense multiple choice questions.

He has been insisting on training in the system, and the next thing to do is to use it more in the game to trigger the badge in this regard.

As for passing, although it is not his strong point, he has no problem relying on ordinary passing by a golfer.

The problem is the team configuration.

Trinidad, who is partnered with him in the backcourt, has no outside shooting ability at all, which allows opponents to double-team him unscrupulously.

So to solve this problem with passing, the best way is to change to a defender who has shooting defense and will not be targeted.

Too bad Real Madrid didn't.

But there is more than one way to solve a problem.

Even in the NBA, players like Tony Allen who have no outside shots at all can always exist as the starters of strong teams, and La Liga can naturally do so.

Another way to solve this problem is to adjust Trinidad to the off-ball side.

Before the next day's training session, Sun Hao took the initiative to talk to Lasso about his thoughts.

Lasso was also having a headache about this matter, and he wasn't too surprised to see Sun Hao coming to him, but was ready to listen.

After getting along for more than a year, he also clearly knows that Sun Hao is a golf player.

Trinidad has no outside shooting ability, but it's not that he has no offensive ability. On the contrary, he can play for Real Madrid on defense alone. Fast breaks and baseline cuts are both his forte.

So Sun Hao's idea of ​​adjusting to the off-ball side, La Suo completely agreed after hearing it.

The so-called side without the ball literally means that there are left and right sides in the half court of the ball, the side with the ball is called the side with the ball, and the side without the ball is the other side.

Adjust Trinidad to the off-ball side, because it is not on the side with Sun Hao, and it is impossible for the defensive player to let him go and double-team across the half.

Because that would mean letting Trinidad cut in, and Sun Hao can completely wait for the defensive player to pass the ball steadily across the half court.

In fact, no one is stupid enough to double-team across the half court. If Real Madrid adjusts like this, there is a high probability that the opponent will double-team with a substitution.

It's also double-teaming, but the situation is completely different from before.

Because everyone else on the Real Madrid team has a certain shooting ability, including Garbajosa also has a middle distance.

Sun Hao's proposal gave Lasuo a new idea, and Lasuo quickly made targeted tactical arrangements.

In the next training session, a new team tactic was born.

Sun Hao and Garbajosa's pick-and-roll offense.

Sun Hao's three-point ability is excellent, and Garbajosa's cutting ability is very strong. The technical characteristics of the two determine that the opponent will fall into difficulty in choosing.

Once they choose to double-team Sun Hao, Garbajosa will get a chance.

And if they choose not to double-team or switch defenses, Sun Hao can catch the opponent's defensive time difference and directly shoot a three-pointer.

Even if the opponent does not double-team and chooses to switch defenses, Sun Hao can still fight big.

All in all, on the basis of the suggestion given by Sun Hao, Laso created a tactic that is most suitable for the team at this stage.

After two days of training, the pick-and-roll tactic of the two began to be used in the game against Riviera Andorra, and it was used from the beginning.

Lasso also stood on the sidelines at the beginning of the game, looking a little nervous.

The reason why this tactic can be thought of and put into use so quickly is not how strong his coaching ability is, but because before that, Prigioni and Garbajosa often played pick-and-rolls.

After all, in European basketball, pick-and-roll tactics cannot escape.

Now that the pick-and-roll man has changed from Prigioni to Sun Hao, Russo is worried about Sun Hao's passing ability.

But after the game really started, he found that his worries were unnecessary.

When Prigioni and Garbajosa often break through in the pick-and-roll, they will use more breakthrough techniques at this time.

But Sun Hao and Garbajosa's pick-and-roll are just the opposite, he basically goes out.

Correspondingly, Garbajosa basically cuts in.

The opponent actually didn't dare to let Garbajosa do this.

To know Igarbajossa's ability in La Liga, as long as Sun Hao passes the ball, scoring points is a high probability event.

So in the end, what Lasso was worried about didn't happen.

After not being double-teamed, Sun Hao's outside scoring ability was released again, and he scored 19 points again to help Real Madrid win the game.

After the game ended, all the worry and nervousness on Lasso's face dissipated, and he went up to Sun Hao and gave him a high five immediately after the game.

Facts have proved that his judgment is correct, Sun Hao is indeed a player with a high golf quotient!

In the next game, Sun Hao and Garbajosa continued to run the pick and roll, and the opponent's defense was also changing.

They didn't double-team or switch defenses at the beginning, but Sun Hao caught the opponent's time difference around the pick-and-roll very well.
