Chapter 489 The Weakness of Dream Team Eight (200 Monthly Pass)
This year's Dream Team is composed of such players, centers Howard and Bosh, power forwards Boozer and Anthony, small forwards James and Prince, shooting guards Kobe, Wade and Reid, point guard Keith
De, Paul and Deron Williams, if you look at this list, you will find that this team has the flaws of being strong on the outside and weak on the inside.
I have to say that since the Sharks got old, the NBA has entered an era without centers. Howard is far from being able to compare with the four major centers. Bosh is called a center. In fact, he plays more of a power forward in the NBA.
Position, the only orthodox center is Howard!
As for the power forward position, there are not many players. The Dream Team did not recruit super power forwards like Duncan and Garnett this time. Boozer obviously cannot bear the responsibility of guarding the inside; Anthony actually plays small forward.
In other words, this time the Dream Team actually only has three insiders: Howard, Bosh and Boozer! The number of centers and power forwards only accounts for a quarter of the total number of players.
The Huaguo Men's Basketball Team's continuous attacks on the inside aroused the vigilance of Coach K. He turned his attention to Yao Ming on the sidelines, but Yao Ming was dressed in a suit and had no intention of playing; and during this period, the Huaguo Men's Basketball Team's hits
The rate dropped sharply, and the score was gradually caught up by the Mengba team, which made him hesitate.
Since we now have the advantage, let’s continue the current lineup and tactics! We now have three insiders, which is enough! The old coach K sat back again.
"Hey, Chris, watch out for your wrist roll!" Wang Zhizhi made two free throws. Paul took the baseline ball from Bosh and dribbled forward. Lu Qiujian whispered in his ear.
Damn it, Chris Paul was extremely embarrassed by his voice; there are many differences between FIBA and NBA rules. For example, there are no three seconds in the former, and there are also differences in some rules such as walking and wrist turning. The main reason is that
The NBA pays more attention to the enjoyment of the game. Some rules are set for the beauty of the game, such as Paul's iconic wrist flip, which looks very handsome, but is illegal under the rules of FIBA.
These players don't think anything of it when they play in the NBA for a long time, but they will feel uncomfortable in the FIBA arena. Paul has had the experience of being blown off his wrist in previous games; Lu Qiujian knows that in situations like this
The more you remind him, the more likely he is to make a mistake.
Sure enough, Paul's dribbling movements became more and more awkward because he had to pay attention to turning his wrists. Lu Qiujian quickly seized the opportunity to steal and successfully dribbled the ball down. At this time, the backcourt of the Dream Eight team only had to serve the sideline ball.
Bosh, who didn't make it past halftime.
Lu Qiujian was willing to miss this opportunity. Although he could also guarantee points by shooting a three-pointer from the outside, he still rushed directly to Bosh at the basket. His level of fouling was much higher than that of Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhizhi.
Even though Bosh paid attention to his actions repeatedly, he was still called for a foul by Lu Qiujian!
"This shot was a bit unreasonable. We saw that Yi Jianlian behind him had already caught up. As long as he diverted Bosh away and passed the ball, Yi Jianlian could directly attack the basket! Xiao Lu did something like this.
It was forced, but fortunately the referee gave a foul, otherwise the attack would have failed!" Teacher Zhang Lili talked in the broadcast booth.
"That seems to make sense! Xiao Qin, what do you think?" The Prime Minister turned to look at Qin Feng.
"I also think there are some problems. I have watched Xiao Lu's training. He is always hitting the target from beyond the three-point line. This time he wants to hit the basket. I'm afraid he has some ideas?" Qin Feng replied.
The head of the basketball center, who finally found an opportunity to get in front of the three elders, was in a dilemma now! He knew Lu Qiujian's plan. But it was better to tell him now, or wait for the elders to find out by themselves.
? After hesitating for a long time, he said cautiously, "Coach Yunus is not unhappy. I think this is probably a strategy formulated in advance!"
The Dream Team made another substitution, and their last post player, Boozer, came on as a substitute; Boozer was Yao Ming's pain, as the Rockets were defeated by his Jazz many times in the playoffs. This player's
His technical characteristic is that he has an excellent mid-range shot. He is good at pick-and-rolls and has good post-up and rebounding abilities. However, his defensive awareness is really average, making it easier to cause fouls.
When he came on the court, the first quarter was coming to an end. But despite this, the Hua Guo Men's Basketball Team still seized the opportunity to give him a foul.
The score in the first quarter was 36 to 29, with the Chinese men's basketball team trailing by seven points; the three insiders of the Dream Team eight fouled a total of five times, including two by Howard, two by Bosh, and one by Boozer.
It’s not that serious in the NBA, and there are still many opportunities before six fouls are enough to end the game; but in the Olympics, the rules of FIBA are implemented, and you will get out if you commit five fouls, so although the Chinese men’s basketball team is lagging behind in the score, it can
Strategically, it has achieved considerable advantages.
"It's that big! Don't care about the score behind, continue to attack the inside in the second quarter! Try to increase their number of fouls to more than ten before halftime!" The three of them only had fifteen foul opportunities in total.
This is still the case when Yao Ming, the big inside killer, does not appear.
If their inside line is troubled by foul trouble at the beginning of the third quarter, they can wreak havoc in the inside line when Yao Ming comes on the court!
"Control the number of fouls! Cameron, LeBron, pay attention to protecting the inside!" Coach K had an ominous premonition in his heart. Why did the Chinese men's basketball team do this? Neither Yi Jianlian nor Wang Zhizhi was in the inside.
With their vertical and horizontal abilities, why do they insist on playing inside?
At the beginning of the second quarter, Lu Qiujian took a brief rest off the court. He was replaced by young player Chen Jianghua. He was particularly excited after coming on the court. As soon as he caught the ball, he used his speed to rush inside and was hit by Wade.
Lose.
However, this defeat did not make the Huaguo men's basketball team change its strategy. Wang Shipeng and Liu Wei were like warriors rushing towards the bunker with explosive bags. As soon as they got the ball, they rushed inside. Even veteran Li Nan made a three-pointer.
After scoring a few points to stabilize the situation, the attack began, and Zhu Fangyu tried his best to grab every offensive rebound.
Their efforts were not in vain. Just when the score reached double digits, Boozer also received his second foul, and then Lu Qiujian came on the field again.
At the end of the first half, the Chinese men's basketball team fell behind by fifteen points. Howard of the Dream 8 team received three fouls, Boozer three times, and Bosh four times. The Chinese men's basketball team's strategy was a success!
As the players walked back to the locker room, Yao Ming looked at Howard and Bosh on the other side, then took off his suit jacket, draped it over his shoulders and disappeared into the tunnel! (To be continued.)
