Chapter 629 The old guy is quite fierce

  2:5, the Pistons attack.

   Billups came to the right wing with the ball, and Nash was on the right wing. He decided to play Nash himself, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

  Starting from the three-point line, he controlled the ball with his right hand, protected it with his left hand, and pushed forward against Nash, who was not able to resist. Just when he was about to make a shot, Marion in the middle rushed up from behind and implemented a zone defense.

"boom!"

   Hastily shot, failed to hit, Lao Wang protected the rebound from the backcourt, and the Suns attacked.

  Pharaoh Wang entered the paint from the free throw line, and Big Ben tried his best to defend.

  He leaned over and pushed **** Lao Wang's back. He used all his breastfeeding strength, and he really resisted Lao Wang.

  Ben’s tonnage is at most 110 kg, which is 20 kg less than Pharaoh’s. However, he is very short. His official height is 206 cm, but his actual height is only 203 cm. Moreover, he is shoe height. A bare height of 200 cm is not bad.

  But also because of his short height, he has high muscle content, and his absolute strength is at the top level, so in terms of strength, he should now be at the top of the league, no worse than Lao Wang, and even stronger than Lao Wang in terms of upper body strength.

  Lao Wang's strength is more about balance, especially the lower body muscles, which are more developed than Big Ben.

  After the free throw line was blocked in the next step, Pharaoh leaned against Big Ben and asked for the ball. After the ball came in, he suddenly stepped forward.

"Oops!"

  Feeling that the power in front of him suddenly went to waste, Daben had a bad heart, but it was too late, the whole person rushed forward and hit Lao Wang's back.

  The next moment, Pharaoh, who took a step forward, successfully caught the ball. When Da Ben threw himself on his back, he suddenly turned to the right, took a step forward, and dunked the ball with his left hand.

  Rashid Wallace came in from the right waist to help defend, one step behind Big Ben, just in time to catch up, and immediately took off to block the block from the flank.

  Unfortunately, Lao Wang dunked the ball with his left hand, and he was on the right side, so he couldn't block the shot at all.

"boom!"

  Under the one-arm dunk, Pharaoh ignited the audience.

  Larry Brown couldn't stand it anymore, and roared from the sidelines: "Rashid, go straight back to the basket, use your brains, Ben pushed him outside, and you go straight back to the basket, do you hear me?"

   Glancing at the sidelines, Rasheed Wallace nodded.

   "Troll, Larry Brown looks very kind! It's just a little irritable." Pharaoh joked.

   "Puff!"

  Trolls just laughed and sprayed.

   "Kobe, have you learned the old K's move? It's the step forward." Magic Johnson asked on the sidelines.

   "Of course I learned."

   Kobe nodded and replied: "This is the withdrawal method of the club step. It can be withdrawn while defending, and it can also be withdrawn forward during offense."

   "Why haven't you seen it used?" Magic Johnson asked.

  Kobe shook his head and said: "The outside line is not suitable. It is impossible to defend against the outside line like the inside line. It cannot achieve the effect of withdrawing. The outside line is more about diverting the offense.

  Even if it is an inside line, only when he defends with all his strength like Da Ben can he achieve the effect of evacuation, and Old K rarely uses it. "

  2:7, the Pistons attack.

  Prince ran on the left wing, Hamilton continued to run around, from the right wing to the left wing, and the two ran at the same time, trying to tear the Suns' joint defensive lineup.

"brush!"

   Taking advantage of Hamilton to attract Marion's defensive attention, Prince got an open position, received a pass and made a three-pointer and made a hit.

  5:7, the sun attacks.

"boom!"

   Marion made a three-pointer, both of them had ape arms, and Prince missed the shot, but the former also missed the shot.

  At the basket, Lao Wang backed up the big book, and took off at the same time as Rasheed Wallace, competing for rebounds.

"mine!"

   With a stronger bounce, he grabbed the rebound.

"boom!"

  The next moment, he used a fake rise to shake Big Ben and Wallace at the same time, then took off for the second time, and dunked Rasheed Wallace.

Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Big Ben's rebounding skills were taught by Tie Jun himself, but he is not tall, so he can't beat Tie Jun. But Tie Zi's rebounding skills are average, he can't bounce, and he can't beat Tie Jun. Stoudemire's rebounding The ball is also better than the trolls, and the Suns should be able to get an advantage in rebounding today."

  Su Qun smiled and said: "5:9, the Suns lead by 4 points. Old K is now 3 of 4 shots, 1 of 1 free throw, 7 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist."

   Pistons attack, right wing, Rasheed Wallace borrows Hamilton's pick-and-roll, gets rid of Stoudemire and catches and jumps the ball one step inside the three-point line.

"Be careful!"

  At the moment of his shot, he heard Big Ben's cry, and at the same time he saw Old K rushing out from the paint area, but the arrow was on the string, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a shot.

   "Squeak! Squeak!"

With two big strides, Pharaoh stepped one meter away from the right waist in the paint area, his huge body soared up, and glided in the air for a distance of two meters. up to the sky.

   "Ohoo!"

   Seeing old K rushing from the basket to near the three-point line to send a big cap, the Suns fans immediately cheered and cheered endlessly.

  Old Wang controlled the power of blocking the shot, only pointing the ball up, and it didn’t go out of bounds. Stoudemire grabbed the ball and quickly passed it to Marion who was about to go down in the middle. Then, including Lao Wang, all the Suns went down quickly.

   "Squeak..."

  Ten players from the two teams rushed to the frontcourt of the Suns desperately, and the screeching sound of sneakers rubbed against each other one after another.

Once the 130kg Wang Tiejun charges, it is very terrifying. He is like a heavy tank charging crazily, rushing across the center line, crossing the three-point line, and rushing into the paint from the left elbow area. The Pistons, even teammates, dare not stand in front of him.

   "Why so fast?"

  Rashid Wallace, who was chasing after him, couldn't keep up. Seeing that Old K rushed to the left elbow, he had to give up.

  Ben, who returned to defense from the basket, also failed to keep up. His speed is not as fast as Old K.

Marion rushed to the basket first, and Billups and Prince were both very fast, chasing after him without forcing a shot. He knew that there must be teammates behind him, so he threw the ball toward the basket without looking back. With a throw above the back of the head, he rushed out of the bottom line.

"boom!"

  When the ball was thrown high into the sky, Pharaoh just rushed in from the left elbow area, the speed slowed down a little, and then he flew up, caught the ball in the air, dunked with one arm, and the basket slammed.

   "Ohoo!"

  Huge cheers also echoed.

"The 130-kilogram heavy center makes fast breaks himself, and his speed can be compared to small forwards. Old K is now the same as O'Neal when he first entered the league. Once he is charged, he is like a charging chariot, unstoppable Ah!" Su Qun said excitedly.

   "Now O'Neill has become a fat shark, and he can't get up at all." Zhang Li said with a smile.

   "Rashid, stop him from going down immediately, don't let him rush up, understand?" Larry Brown's roar sounded.

   It's a pity that his growling sound couldn't reach the ears of the trolls. The cheers in the arena were too enthusiastic, and they were drowned out as soon as he exited.

  5:11, the Pistons attacked.

  Ben didn't have the ability to stretch, and Lao Wang sat under the basket.

   At this time, Billups broke through with the ball on the right wing, and Prince cut in from the weak side from the left wing, received the pass from the former, and immediately took off for a small throw.

"Snapped!"

  Responding quickly, Pharaoh quickly made a stride, and when he grabbed it, he hit a flying cap and slapped the ball directly to the frontcourt.

  Amidst the cheers of the audience, all members of the Suns stepped down.

  In the end, Nash was the fastest, rushed to the ball, and then quickly passed back to Marion, who was going down the middle, and the latter flew up.

   "Don't even think about it!"

   Billups blocks the shot from the wing.

"boom!"

   Under the one-handed dunk, affected by the block, the basket hit the basket and bounced out.

   "Oh, the buckle flew!"

  A live commentator exclaimed.

   "Also, old K!"

   At this time, another on-site commentator shouted.

"boom!"

  Old Wang rushed into the paint, grabbed the basketball in the air, landed again, dunked heavily with both hands, and blasted the ball into the basket.

   "Ohoo!"

   Great cheers sounded again in the American West Arena.

  Su Qun said excitedly: "The fast-breaking Suns team is too dominant. The speed of Da Ben and Troll is quite fast, but they really can't keep up with Tie Jun and Stoudemire, and they are a little slower."

  Zhang rationally said with a smile: "I have played several fast breaks in the opening game, and the success rate is very high, but the Suns should stabilize next, play a few positional battles, slow down, and control the rhythm."

  Su Qun said: "It is now 5:13. The defense that the Pistons are proud of has completely failed, and their offense is inherently weak, so they can't defend the Suns, and the score is quickly drawn."

Nodding, Zhang Lili said: "The Pistons rely on defense. If they can't defend, they will lose. The offense of the Suns today is one of the iron army's offense, and the other is the fast break of the offensive and defensive shift. The Pistons failed to defend neither." , I didn’t play well offensively, so it’s no surprise that the score was pulled apart.”

   "Old K has already had two caps. And both times the Suns got the ball." Su Qun laughed.

   The Pistons serve and call a timeout.

   "Defense! Defense, let me see your defense..." Larry Brown's roar sounded from the bench.

   "Rashid, strengthen the double-teaming of the old K, we have to double-team him in advance. Everyone else listen to me, speed up your defensive speed, and don't let them easily get open."

  "Listen everyone, when the offense and defense are in transition, you must stop the old K from making a fast break. He is the starting point of the Suns' fast break. As long as you stop his fast break, we can prevent their fast break."

  "They play three-two defense, we need to strengthen breakthroughs, come out from the inside to pick and roll, and provide cover for the breakthrough of outside teammates."

   Larry Brown roared a series of rants, only talking about defense, not much about offense, and finally mentioned it.

   At this time, the timeout is up, the game restarts, and the Pistons serve at the center line.

  Seeing Da Ben running towards the left-wing three-point line, Lao Wang didn't keep up and stayed at the left waist.

   At this time, Prince used Big Ben's pick-and-roll to get rid of Marion, and when he cut into the wing, Billups' ball arrived.

  Old Wang quickly moved a step towards Prince, who made a sudden stop for a jumper and made a mid-range two-pointer.

"brush!"

   Splashes appeared and two points were hit.

  7:13, the sun attacks.

  This time there was no one at the basket, so the Suns started playing positional battles.

As Lao Wang entered the top of the arc, Big Ben came in front of him, and Rasheed Wallace also approached the paint area. When he entered the paint area, Big Ben immediately defended with all his strength, and Rasheed Wallace immediately Jump to the side, around the front to defend.

   "Teaming in advance!" Su Qun shouted.

  The next moment, Stoudemire Stoudemire cuts in from the right wing, receives a pass from Shi, and is about to jump and dunk...

   "Squeak!"

  The big Ben on the top quickly moved down a step and blocked in front of Stoudemire.

   Stoudemire stopped at the right waist, hesitated, and shot a jumper.

"boom!"

   The rhythm is gone, the ball is missed, Big Ben turns around and grabs the backcourt rebound, and the Pistons attack.

   "Oh, Stoudemire shouldn't have shot just now. You give it to old K. Old K is right in front of the basket. If you give him a dunk." Su Qun said regretfully, patting the table.

   "Hehe, Stoudemire's passing awareness is average, and the first awareness after taking the ball is to shoot." Zhang Reasonable said with a smile.

"boom!"

  Prince quickly advances to the frontcourt with the ball, and Marion chases to one side. He suddenly stops outside the left-wing three-point line and rushes to shoot a three-pointer, but unfortunately he misses.

  Joe Johnson rushed in from the middle to grab the rebound, turned around and saw that the three teammates had already turned around, the old K asked for the ball at the top of the arc, and quickly passed it.

  Old Wang catches the ball and turns around, sweeping his eyes. Unfortunately, there is no good opportunity, and the Pistons return to defense very quickly, so they press the rhythm and play positional warfare.

   Came to the frontcourt, he didn’t go down low, he landed on the free throw line, with his left elbow against Big Ben, facing the right wing, asking for the ball outside.

  Rashid Wallace immediately rushed to his side and double-teamed ahead of time.

   This time, Stoudemire still cut in.

   But this time Nash failed to pass the ball in time, Stoudemire rushed to the basket, seeing that there was no ball, he simply pulled to the left wing and made a pick-and-roll for Marion.

  Marion uses the wall to get rid of Prince and starts to cut inside.

   This time, Billups failed to stop Nash's pass in time.

  Marion catches the ball and enters the paint area, and Big Ben intercepts downward in time. The former throws the ball upwards, then stops suddenly and slows down.

  When Da Ben went down to defend, Pharaoh immediately rushed to the basket. As soon as Marion threw the ball, he immediately flew up, caught the ball in the air, and smashed it violently.

"boom!"

  The basket rang suddenly.

  7:15, the Suns lead and the Pistons attack.

   "Rashid, you go down to make up the defense, let Ben defend the old K, and never let the old K get close to the basket..."

   The early double-teaming failed to prevent Old K's attack, Larry Brown was furious, and roared again.

  Rashid Wallace is a team player. Larry Brown's coaching style in the Pistons is quite suitable for him, but he just hates the roar of the old guy, and he always sprays people.

  Although he himself is a troll, he doesn't troll his teammates, only the referees, so he doesn't like Larry Brown's habit.

   It's only half a day today, and the old guy has already sprayed it several times, which makes him a little annoyed.

   Fortunately, after Larry Brown sprayed a sentence, he changed his target and sprayed at Billups, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

   "Chauncey, can't you see your man? He can pass as he wants. If you can't guard, come down for me."

   Billups nodded calmly while advancing with the ball.

   "The old guy is quite fierce!"

  Old Wang glanced at Larry Brown. He was a little confused. When the old guy was coaching Philadelphia, he didn't seem to yell at Iverson very much. Did he change his style when he arrived at the Pistons?

In the next game, although Billups stepped up his defense against Nash, Nash was not a shooting guard. He is strong, but whenever he gets close, Nash can avoid him in advance or divert the ball, so the defensive effect is not very good. He can't lock the Suns' offense through his own defense.

   After the first quarter, at 16:31, the Suns led by 15 points.

Larry Brown feels that the situation is very dangerous, the offense is weak, and the old K's defense is too strong. He sent three big blocks and a steal in the first quarter, and destroyed the team's breakthrough tactics several times. Score very little.

   What is more serious is the defensive end, allowing the Suns to score 31 points, which is an extremely failed defensive performance.

He thought that during the regular season, the Pistons and the Lakers played two games, one win and one loss. In the winning game, Prince locked Kobe, controlled the strongest offensive point of the Lakers outside, and then used an early bag Clip, cut off the connection between O'Neal and his teammates, thus winning the game.

   So, is it possible to replicate that game?

  The Suns are different from the Lakers. The Lakers have Kobe Bryant on the perimeter and even the team's first offensive point, but the Suns don't.

   Except for old K, the other four main players of the Suns have very even shots. It is useless to lock up a point, so what should we do?

  He used his brain to think about it.

   There is no other way, but by locking Nash, thereby destroying the organizational function of the Suns, and at the same time double-teaming in advance, cutting off the connection between old K and others.

  But Billups can't lock Nash, so he can only switch defenses, let Prince defend Nash, and see how it works.

  Next, he began to arrange defensive tactics according to his own ideas.
