NBA: This Center Is So Stable

The first time, the second time.

Chapter 38 Consideration of career length, fancy pass

Fans stand.

“I can’t believe it! This little Asian guy actually resisted the pressure from the fans and was able to keep his mind stable in such a start. It’s really good!”

John listened to the comments of the general manager on the side and showed a happy face.

Randy Finley, who had always been against him, rarely stood on the same front with him.

“Mr. Randy, the pressure that the fans just put on Wang Song has been returned several times.”

“Is such a young player really not suitable for the Heat?”

“Hmm~”

Randy Finley did not answer immediately, but pondered for a while, then said: “If he can maintain his current performance in the next game, his prospects in the draft will be higher than all the players on the court today.”

“At that time, I’m afraid we can’t get involved!”

After this game, Randy Finley has actually re-priced Wang Song in his heart.

From the original second-round pick, it can be given to the middle of the first round.

But the real draft situation may be much more complicated than he imagined.

The most important thing is that there is a Chinese market to be explored behind Wang Song.

That will make his draft results have a premium, which is foreseeable, and Randy Finley still can’t accept this.

In his heart, in addition to the need for a combat force, the Heat now also needs a cornerstone for the team building that the Heat can entrust with important tasks in the next ten years.

But the durability of Asian players’ careers is still to be considered.

···

On the side of the court.

Taking advantage of the timeout, Roy Williams, who had been gradually losing his composure, calmed down and began to analyze strategies for the players.

Originally, it was thought that the North Carolina Wolf Pack’s arrangement was an unexpected counterattack fast break, a trendy run-and-gun.

But who would have thought that the key main attack point of the four shooters and one inside was actually the inside line.

The most important thing is that Wang Song’s offensive suppression is more fierce than Roy Williams imagined.

Especially in the basket area, the power burst out by the whole person is completely inconsistent with his body shape.

This also led to the Jayhawks being caught off guard!

“Boss, that Asian is too flexible. It’s difficult for one person to form an effective defense against him.”

Nick Collison hit the team’s pain point as soon as he sat down.

He didn’t hesitate to talk about how he was madly eaten by Wang Song on the court just now.

This is his professional attitude!

The game continues.

There were about 8 minutes left in the first half.

After the timeout, the Kansas Jayhawks’ offense was more organized and their defense more targeted.

They used high-speed fake defense to create psychological pressure on Wang Song and try to force the opponent to make mistakes.

Combined with the cheers of Jayhawks fans and the boos on Wang Song.

The forces of the three parties gathered together!

But Wang Song seemed to turn a deaf ear to this and didn’t care about the interference from the outside world at all.

The steady choices on the court for so long have left a deep impression in his mind and formed muscle memory.

He can always judge the opponent’s position and intention, as well as his own shooting choices at the first time.

···

Nick Collison defended Wang Song with his back to the basket. He was ready for confrontation and was waiting for his teammates to rush over and prepare to double-team him.

But before his teammates arrived, Wang Song suddenly turned around.

In the blink of an eye, he was half a body ahead of Collison, and the teammates who doubled him also quickly stepped forward to give up the fake defense and turned into real defense.

Wang Song suddenly threw the ball backwards, and the shadow of the ball suddenly disappeared like a ghost.

Not only the players on the scene, but even the camera almost couldn’t catch up.

On the court.

The two people who sandwiched Wang Song in the middle reacted and looked back quickly.

They were stunned until they saw that the basketball had appeared in the hands of the player at the top of the arc.

“When did this… pass it?”

In the commentary booth outside the court, Barkley was also confused.

Even though his viewing angle was not bad, he couldn’t understand with his naked eyes how the ball suddenly reached the top of the arc.

Kenny Smith was also puzzled, showing a black question mark face.

Not only the commentator who was not familiar with Wang Song, but even Herb Sendek, who was similar, was dumbfounded.

But now the camera was facing him, and his self-esteem did not allow him to show that kind of stunned look.

“Jim, was Wang Song’s behind-the-head pass taught by the trainer?”

Jim shook his head.

Obviously, he had never seen Wang Song use this trick.

“Damn it!”

“This guy is always one step faster than our players!”

Always

Roy Williams, who was watching the game on the sidelines, finally saw Wang Song’s confidence.

This Asian kid almost predicted the running position of the help defender and passed the ball in advance.

This made it look like Wang Song was double-teamed at the beginning, but the ball had already disappeared from Wang Song’s hand.

“Is this guy so daring to gamble?”

···

On the court!

The teammates at the top of the arc lived up to expectations and successfully hit this sassy pass.

Switching offense.

The Kansas Jayhawks also found their own rhythm.

Pass the ball to the fourth position on the wing, and single-handedly attack Hodge in the low post.

Success!

Turning back.

Wang Song continued to play in the low post, but this time he chose to fake a pass.

After a fake pass, he immediately leaned over to attack the basket.

He didn’t give the defender a chance to react, especially Nick Collison. The slow pace brought by his large tonnage made him suffer frequently in front of Wang Song.

The half-time game ended.

32:31!

The North Carolina Wolfpack successfully overtook by one point.

“There are also highs and lows among first-round picks. Nick Collison can’t even lift his head in front of Wang Song now.”

“I seem to see the dawn of dawn!”

At the end of the first half, Bai Yang took the opportunity to express his feelings.

And the comments of netizens also showed that he had been holding back for a long time.

—— [It is expected that in the second half of the game, the Jayhawks will arrange the starters to catch up after Wang Song leaves the court. ]

—— [That’s right, after all, weak personnel configuration has always been a criticism of the North Carolina Wolfpack. ]

—— [Let’s not talk about anything else. Although Nick Collison looked quite cowardly in front of Wang Song today, his data was actually quite good, 8 points and 4 rebounds. No wonder he was listed as a potential first-round pick by major websites! ]

···

On the way back to the locker room, Wang Song was surrounded by the whole team, all asking him about the operation of the back-of-the-head pass.

Wang Song just waved his hand to indicate that there was no teaching.

“The feel came, and the ball went through with a flick of the wrist. There is really no skill!”

In fact, it was true. Wang Song’s organizational ability of 70 was enough for him to master some fancy passes.

In addition, this value is very high among the inside players.

Herb Sendek, who had been following behind, was a little surprised to see this scene.

A group of seniors and juniors were actually asking a freshman who played center how to pass the ball?

The picture was really too contrasting!

If Herb Sendek hadn’t seen it himself, he would probably never believe it in his life.
