Chapter 307: Don’t Let Me Rush in Again, Otherwise I Will Change a Board for You

Ben served the ball to Billups, who then passed it to Zhao Dong. Zhao Dong received the ball when he passed the center line and quickly advanced toward the basket from the center.

His speed was very fast, and Kidd, who was returning to defense, was forced to retreat continuously and had no time to stand up.

Jordan, who took a slow shot to return to defense, finally caught up when Zhao Dong reached the top of the arc and leaned forward with his body, trying to slow down Zhao Dong.

But Zhao Dong's impact was too strong, and he was bounced away. He stumbled and fell to the free throw line.

"Damn it!"

He raised his head from the floor and saw Zhao Dong flying up.

"boom!"

The next moment, the Bulls' basket was smashed.

At this time, Rasheed Wallace, who was returning to defense, rushed into the paint, but he was already two steps too slow.

"Yeah, Feilong made a fast break, and he was like a hurricane, sweeping everything..." the on-site commentator roared.

Hubie Brown said with a smile: "This season Feilong rarely plays such a stamina-consuming fast break. In the regular season, he mostly solves battles with jump shots.

He played amazing performances and statistics in the regular season. Before the playoffs, many people said that his physical strength had been exhausted in the regular season, but he led the Knicks to complete two consecutive sweeps. There is no physical problem, which has to be amazing. He is a real physical monster.

And tonight, he played a fast break again. Let's see if he can continue to play such a fast break.

If it can, then the Bulls will be out of luck, because this kind of fast break is the tactic that can best utilize the terrifying impact of the flying dragon.

Once he charges, he's like a mad bull and is unstoppable. "

Cook laughed and said: "When Rodman was here, he couldn't keep up with Feilong. Otherwise, with his psoriasis-style defense, he could have guarded Feilong."

Hubby Brown shook his head and smiled: "No, he can't, his strength and tonnage are too small. He can guard against someone like the postman whose strength and tonnage exceed him by a large margin, but he can't guard against a flying dragon whose strength and tonnage are the same. A lot more than him.

Because the Postman doesn't have speed, Feilong does, and the Postman's offensive skills are far inferior to Feilong's, his escape ability is far inferior to Feilong's, and he doesn't have Feilong's assist ability.

So anti-flying dragon,

Definitely not just sticking it on him.

Not to mention Rodman, plus Jordan and Pippen, three top defensive players joined forces, wouldn't they be able to guard Feilong? "

2:7, Bulls attack.

Jordan used his attractiveness to create opportunities for McGrady, who got a small opening but missed the jumper.

"mine."

Oakley is getting stronger as he gets older and grabs the rebound over his little brother Ben.

"Snapped!"

When he took off for the second time for a layup, a big hand came out of his head and slapped the ball on the backboard. Then he was knocked directly to the basket by the person behind him.

"Yeah, the flying dragon is hating the old oak tree on its back. This is his salute to the old elephant tree." The on-site commentator roared loudly.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing Zhao Dong flipping Oakley's hat and hearing the on-site commentary, the fans couldn't help but laugh.

"Damn salute!"

Oakley got up angrily, and when he saw Zhao Dong was already getting off, he quickly chased after him.

This time Zhao Dong's fast break failed because both Rashid and Jordan caught up and were caught on both sides. He had to pass the ball to the madman on the left wing, and then rushed to the basket to grab it. rebound.

The madman caught the ball on the wing, and Kidd, who was returning to defense, came over to defend, but he still couldn't stop his shot.

"Uh-huh!"

The water splashed and hit two points.

At 2:9, the Knicks led by 7 points at home.

The Bulls attacked and called for a timeout.

"Tracy, cheer up, remember this is the Eastern Conference Finals, wake up, don't sleep!" Phil Jackson looked at McGrady's lowered eyes and shouted in a deep voice.

McGrady's eyes moved and his gaze drifted towards Jordan. He immediately saw two sharp and aggressive eyes staring at him, and his heart trembled.

"Rookie, are you sleeping? Eastern Conference Finals, Eastern Conference Finals, this is the Eastern Conference Finals, we must win, use all your concentration."

Jordan said angrily in a deep voice.

McGrady lowered his head to avoid Jordan's spit.

Next, Phil Jackson rearranged his offensive and defensive tactics.

"On the offensive end, Tracy plays off the ball on the weak side, attracts the defense, and covers Michael to attack on the strong side. Others pull away to create single opportunities for Michael. Charles, Rashid, you must control the rebounds. "

"Defensively, in the first few rounds today, Feilong did not attack in the low post. Instead, he made outside jumpers, pull-up jumpers after breakthroughs, and fast breaks."

At this point, Phil Jackson was thinking about which piece of defense to give up and which piece to strengthen.

There is no perfect defensive strategy. If one point is strengthened, another point will be weakened. He understands this very well.

Then he said: "I judge that if we strengthen the outside defense and weaken the inside line, once the inside line is pulled out to double-team him, he will definitely strengthen his breakthrough and attack our basket.

In this way, we will face great damage, and Feilong directly attacks the basket, and his efficiency is the most efficient among all his offensive methods. "

Speaking of this, he recalled the last Eastern Conference Finals. Zhao Dong knocked down Ewing and Rodman through repeated attacks on the basket from the outside, injuring them, and then passed those double headers. Snake's tactics forced Jordan into the low post when the Bulls had no inside players to attack, and finally defeated the Bulls.

This time, he couldn't make the same mistake again.

He continued: "So, we cannot pull out the inside, we must continue to guard the inside, reduce the quality of the Knicks' low-post offense, and at the same time ensure our rebounds.

If Feilong continues to attack from the outside, we will follow the defensive strategy we formulated, one post, two complements, and three blocks. We must not let him get close to the paint area, forcing him to make long shots or pass the ball. "

The timeout ends, the game continues, and the Bulls attack.

Jordan ran on the left side and dropped the madman. Kidd sent a through ball. The Knicks were unable to defend. Jordan made an emergency jumper and hit a mid-range two-pointer from the left wing.

4:9, Knicks attack.

The Bulls are still 212, and McGrady is still in the middle.

However, McGrady's position is obviously close to Zhao Dong's left wing.

At this time, Zhao Dong asked for the ball, and Jordan immediately got close to him, interfering with the former's ability to catch the ball.

Of course, Zhao Dong's strength was much higher. He carried Jordan outside with his left arm and stretched out his right hand to ask for the ball.

The moment Billups passed the ball, McGrady, who had already moved ahead, immediately started to help defend.

"squeak!"

As the friction of sneakers sounded, Zhao Dong turned around and began to break through.

But Jordan was almost hanging on him, and his breakthrough movement was not as fast as before.

As soon as he completed his turn, McGrady braked and blocked him in front, and then Jordan and McGrady formed a double-team on him.

One stick, two to make up for three blocks, this is Phil Jackson's strategy of defending Zhao Dong from the outside.

Post, interfere with Zhao Dong, slow him down, and prevent him from quickly starting a breakthrough.

Make up, quickly make up for defense.

Blocking. After completing the double-team, in order to reduce Zhao Dong's efficiency in getting rid of defenders, blocking is the main method to block Zhao Dong's most likely escape position while preventing him from crossing the free throw line and its dotted line.

Of course, when double-teaming Zhao Dong near the three-point line, you must put someone in. The Bulls let go of the defense in the middle, allowing the Knicks' other perimeters to attack from there, but they do not allow Zhao Dong to rush in to cause damage, or rush into the center. cast.

But this kind of defense couldn't really restrict Zhao Dong. When the double-team formed, he immediately turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper.

However, the Bulls' double-teaming also achieved its purpose, which is to force Zhao Dong to make long shots. It will not kill you, but it will reduce your offensive efficiency.

Jordan and McGrady jumped up to block the shot at the same time. They tried their best to stretch their arms, but they were still far away from the ball in Zhao Dong's hands, more than three feet.

Without him, Zhao Dong's core strength is too strong. This strength is even enough to support his body lying almost flat in the air. It is simply impossible to block his ball.

Also, Zhao Dong's height, wingspan, and bounce all allow his ball to be very far away from the defender. Even without such strong core strength, it is almost impossible to block the ball.

In this situation where it is impossible to be blocked, whether the shot is successful or not depends entirely on his technique and touch.

"Uh-huh!"

The water splashed and hit two points from far away.

"Oh, Feilong hit a turnaround jumper. His posture in the air was so beautiful!" Hubie Brown exclaimed.

"This technique is exactly the same as Jordan's, but Feilong's aerial posture is better. It is more difficult to defend against his shots than Jordan's shots," Cook added.

Looking back, Jordan, not to be outdone, also made a turnaround and fadeaway jumper in the double-team, which also hit.

At 6:11, the Knicks attacked, Zhao Dong took another shot from the double team, but this time he missed a shot.

"pretty!"

Phil Jackson shook his fist on the sidelines. Just now, it was Jordan and McGrady who teamed up to block Zhao Dong's breakthrough, and then restricted his movement. Zhao Dong did not completely get rid of Jordan's defense, and finally missed the shot. , his defensive tactics worked.

San Antonio, Spurs headquarters, Tim Duncan saw the Bulls' defense and said to Popovich: "Coach, this defense was not bad."

Popovich said thoughtfully: "Pay attention to McGrady's defensive position. His first defensive position should be preset, which is the direction where Feilong is preparing to break through. After Jordan was surprised, he immediately chased after him. The position, like Tracy McGrady, is where the flying dragon moves away from the defender. But it’s just one time, we have to continue to observe.”

On the Lakers side, O'Neal shouted: "I bet that if the Knicks beat us, Feilong will get into the low post, and we won't have to double-team him at the three-point line."

Head coach Kurt Rambis said: "Yes, we have Shaq, so we don't have to be afraid of him in the low post. The Bulls are afraid of Feilong rushing in, but we are not afraid. Instead, we have to force Feilong into the low post, otherwise his impact will be too great. I Worried that he was going to smash our backboard again.”

After saying these words, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became cold. All the players recalled the terrifying scene when Zhao Dong continuously replaced their backboards. That game really scared them.

General manager Jerry West scratched his head and glared at Rambis with some dissatisfaction, "Are you someone who doesn't want to open a bottle?"

At Madison Square Garden, until the 8th minute of the first quarter, the Bulls' defensive tactics had a sustained effect.

When Zhao Dong was mainly attacking, the Bulls double-teamed him in the area above the dotted line of the free throw line. They used a defensive strategy of one, two, and three blocks to prevent him from breaking in, and at the same time, it restricted his offensive efficiency.

He made a total of 4 shots, including one three-pointer, 3 of 3 free throws, scored 12 points, and sent 1 assist.

A 50% shooting rate is acceptable in terms of efficiency, but it is not as good as his normal efficiency, which is more than ten points worse, and far less efficient than his low post efficiency.

Moreover, he made a turnover while being double-teamed.

When Zhao Dong was not efficient enough, the second team drew at 17:17, and the Knicks called a timeout.

Zhang Lili analyzed: "When Zhao Dong is on the outside, specifically speaking, the position is the free throw line and the position above the dotted line. Due to Article 136 of the Feilong Law, his breakthrough is restricted, so in this position, he Vulnerable to double teaming.

Moreover, when being double-teamed, he was also limited by the rules and could not use force to directly knock away the defender, so his shots were affected.

Of course, he also passed two balls, the Madman made one and Billups missed one.

Both goals were shot from the outside. The Bulls and Knicks insiders were crowded in the paint, and there was no room to break through from the outside. So one of the two passes, with a 50% hit rate, is not as good as a forced shot. "

"So how should the Knicks play now?" Sun Zhenping asked.

Zhang Lili analyzed: "The Flying Dragon Law is still very restrictive. In addition, today the Bulls double-teamed Zhao Dong near the three-point line, which limited his efficiency, so Zhao Dong still has to go to the low post, that is, be careful of Rasheed Huale." With the help of soldiers, his tonnage is not large and his movement speed is very fast.

In addition, Oakley's defense is very fierce. The four villains are no joke. He can't guard the faster Zhao Dong outside, but that's not necessarily the case in the low post. And he knows Zhao Dong very well, so his defensive effect should be stronger than others. "

But no, after returning from the timeout, the Knicks changed people, and even came on the court and actually replaced Ben. Then Billups came off the court and replaced Barkley.

The Bulls also made substitutions. Jordan went off, Mobley came on, inside man Oakley came off, Kurt Thomas came on, and two starters were changed.

"Oh, this substitution is to continue to let Feilong play on the outside, open the inside line, and let Feilong break through?" Hubby Brown said in surprise.

He was right, that's what Old Nelson thought, and he was brave enough to do it.

The reason for his substitution is very simple. On the offensive end, he uses sudden scoring tactics. On the defensive end, Zhao Dong enters the basket and replaces Big Ben as the inside pillar.

Zhang Lili also immediately analyzed: "With the point guard out, should we let Zhao Dong control the ball, or should we directly attack from the outside and use sudden scoring tactics.

Adding Barkley and Dazhi strengthens the offense. At the same time, Barkley, Dazhi, and Fordson can all be separated, so this lineup is more conducive to breakout tactics than when Ben is on the court. "

Sun Zhenping joked: "It seems that Old Nelson is determined to use surprise tactics tonight!"

Zhang Lianda said: "This should be because the Bulls have strong defensive capabilities inside. Kurt Thomas and Roaring Tianzun are not easy to mess with. Together with Tracy McGrady and Kidd, the current four Bulls are defensive warriors. Once Zhao Dong Being surrounded in the low post, he may be afraid that Zhao Dong can't open the ball in the low post, so he might as well open up and fight."

The game starts and the Knicks attack.

Zhao Dong did not go to the wings, but directly approached the top of the arc, and at the same time made a gesture to open up the tactics.

Everyone spread out, two on each side, and Zhao Dong was at the top of the arc.

In this way, the Bulls' inside line was forced to follow, and the basket was empty.

The Knicks have five people on the outside and the Bulls have five people on the inside. The Bulls' zone defense is actually impossible to fight.

The Knicks had five players, Zhao Dong, Fordson, Da Zhi, Madman, and Barkley. The Bulls chose to let Fordson go. Rasheed Wallace guarded the free throw line to prevent Zhao Dong from breaking in.

At the top of the arc, McGrady faced Zhao Dong.

"Tracy, did Jordan scold you again?" Zhao Dong suddenly said while controlling the ball.

McGrady was startled, and at this moment, Zhao Dong broke through.

Turning around, Zhao Dong broke through from the left, but McGrady didn't hold him back, allowing him to break into the left elbow area.

At this time, Rasheed Wallace was on defense, but Zhao Dong had already stepped over the free throw line. Without the restrictions of the Flying Dragon Law, he directly bumped into him with his shoulder, knocking away Rasheed who was assisting on defense from the side. , and then went to the basket.

"boom!"

The Bulls tightened their defense, but could not stop Zhao Dong from attacking the basket. With a roar, he blew over the Bulls' basket.

"Two people are not enough, two more can stop me. Remember, gentlemen, next time you let me break in, I will replace you with a board."

While retreating, he spat trash talk at several Bulls players.

The eyes of several Bulls players couldn't help but shrink, and they couldn't help but think of the terrible game between the Knicks and the Lakers. How many rebounds were replaced in total?

"Look, I was right, I just opened it up to let the flying dragon break through."

Cook said excitedly: "If Ben is under the basket, plus Fordson, and the four inside players on both sides, Feilong has no room to break in.

So I say the Knicks should trade Ben Wallace. He has no offense and occupies space inside.

In fact, the Knicks do not lack offensive and defensive players inside. The management should not let Big Ben occupy Oakley's main position. Keep Oakley and trade Big Ben. This is the most correct lineup construction. "

"But Oakley is old, and Ben Wallace has a lot of years left in him," Whoopi Brown laughed.

Cook smiled and shrugged, not raising the issue again.
