NBA: This Center Is So Stable

The two sides of the river are still in a state of panic, and the two sides have been in a state of panic.

Chapter 306 Cutting the Shark, offensive rebound

“After continuous guidance, he got the offensive rebound!”

“And he passed the ball directly to his teammate in the corner without passing the ball through his hands. My goodness, this hand job, is he really a center?”

“This young Chinese player is like a perfect masterpiece of the Creator. Every move he makes is elegant and soft with strength.”

“It is hard to imagine that a 213 tall man has an indescribable soft touch and vision.”

“If Wang Song was an O’Neal-style beast center when he first entered the league; then after a season of tempering, what is now presented to us is a living Olajuwon.”

The radical remarks of the two commentators aroused the emotions of the fans in the text live broadcast room.

——【According to Coach Zhang’s catchphrase, Wang Song’s shots are unreasonable everywhere, but these unreasonable choices often help the team score goals. 】

——【He seems to have magical powers and can always influence the situation of the game. 】

——【It’s really scary. Under the restrictions of the Lakers, Song Shen can still help the Knicks gain an advantage in his own way. 】

——【There is no doubt that for the Chinese men’s basketball team, it is bad news that there are players of this level in the world; the good news is that he is one of them. 】

——【He is both hard and soft. He can grab offensive rebounds over O’Neal’s head, and pass the ball to teammates in the bottom corner without passing the ball. 】

——【I feel that the national team can let him try to play as a guard. If not, he can play as an organizer forward? 】

——【Don’t say that this idea is really good, but I don’t know how good his ball control is. Anyway, it is a sure thing that he will play the fourth position with Yao Ming. 】

——【I can only say that the only flaw of this Knicks team is that they did not equip Wang Song with a deputy at the fifth position. I can feel that if this guy is placed at the fourth position, he will be able to fully play his advantages. 】

——【If the Knicks strengthen this aspect next season, then the NBA will really end! 】

···

The game is still going on.

The main tone has been set, just like the beginning of the game.

The coaching staffs of both sides did everything they could, focusing on the main force of the opponent.

Pushing, pulling and dragging are all routine operations!

Under the connivance of the referee team today, the scale of the scene is constantly escalating, and the scores of both sides have become very stalemate.

It was not until the end of the first quarter that the fans reacted after seeing the dismal scores of both sides.

Today’s game is not like the finals, let alone the Lakers’ life-and-death battle.

Instead, it is like moving the NFL to the wooden field of Staples. In addition to the restrained movements and the restrictions of basketball rules, the fight on the scene is getting more and more tragic.

During the intermission.

The coaching staffs of both sides are frowning in the players’ seats.

Karl Malone has already had 3 fouls, which is a very dangerous signal for the Lakers.

The bad news is that only a quarter of the game time has passed.

The good news is that a similar situation has occurred on the Knicks side.

After Wang Song’s advice, Kurt Thomas no longer restrained his actions. The dirty Kurt released his nature and ushered in his own highlight in the sixth game of the finals – he paid two fouls on Kobe in the first quarter!

So much so that at the end of the first quarter, Kobe even became timid when facing Kurt’s defense, and his shots were no longer so confident.

Because he didn’t know that the next second he would be under the wooden floor of Staples or the pair of 50-yard big feet from New York.

This thing that undermines sports ethics is somewhat contrary to Wang Song’s instructions.

It’s just that in the instructions received by Kurt, all invalid information was filtered out, leaving only the four words [Restrict Kobe].

Therefore, the dirty Kurt did everything he could to face the “Little Peter Pan” with the momentum of 4-5 fouls per game.

This made Kurt return to the NBA in the 1990s!

In the second quarter, he returned to the court.

Kobe, who played the entire first quarter, was substituted out, and the outside duo of Fisher and Payton stepped up.

On the Knicks side, no one chose to rest, and all the starters were still on the court.

In addition to the advantage of better physical strength than the Lakers, another reason is that the Knicks have no one to replace.

Facing this life-and-death battle, no one wants to cause the team to lose because of their own reasons.

The same is true for Kobe.

As for why he was adjusted off the court

Whole?

Wang Song guessed that in addition to physical adjustment, there was another very important reason.

That is, Kurt Thomas on the field made him feel an unprecedented threat. Kobe, who felt uneasy, decided to review Kurt’s behavior after leaving the court and then adjust his playing style.

And it was this gap that created an opportunity for the Lakers.

The Knicks seized the gap when Kobe was not on the court and dealt a heavy blow to the Lakers.

There is no doubt that after Kobe left the court, the Lakers’ core on the field fell to O’Neal.

As the most solid backing of OK, O’Neal’s strength on the offensive end should not be underestimated.

But what if the Knicks come up with future tactics to deal with this declining shark in advance?

Like the Zen Master, after Wang Song’s theory last time, D’Antoni became more comfortable dealing with the Lakers’ single core.

Especially when the big shark was alone on the court, the whole team relied on this declining shark to open up the offensive situation.

D’Antoni simply let the Knicks give up the clash with O’Neal and directly implement the “Hack the Shark” tactic.

If the Sharks’ free throw performance in the playoffs in the previous two seasons was remarkable, then this season, after the Knicks reviewed the video and post-game data, the Knicks coaching team has completely exposed O’Neal.

Last season, when O’Neal averaged 11 free throws per game, he was able to maintain a 62% hit rate to put a perfect end to the playoffs.

At the same time, this data is also O’Neal’s peak free throw hit rate in his playoff career.

But just when everyone, including opponents and teammates and even O’Neal himself, thought that they had solved this historic problem this season, the first three rounds of games exposed his true colors.

This season, based on an average of 11 free throws per game, O’Neal’s hit rate fell by 20%.

The free throw rate of less than 43% per game became the second lowest in his career, which means that every time O’Neal was sent to the free throw line, the opponent was likely to make 1 of 2 free throws, or even 0 of 2 free throws.

If you are bolder, you can often get the ball at zero cost directly in this way.

Of course, D’Antoni is not the first coach to discover this law.

The Lakers’ previous opponents, the Rockets and the Timberwolves, have also tried this method, but the strength of the two teams is so different that even if O’Neal is sent to the free throw line, there are still Kobe and others standing behind the Big Shark.

Another thing is that they are at most slightly involved in this aspect, which is far from extreme.

At least, not as extreme as the future old Nelson.
