Chapter 413 The Whole Audience Presses!

"According to the backstage data just now, the ratings of this finals across the country have reached an astonishing 64 million! In the United States, the ratings have just exceeded the 60 million mark. Tonight, it will be one of the best in the world. A basketball feast!”

"Yes! For the Dragon Country basketball community and hundreds of millions of basketball fans, 27 points and 9 rebounds! 22 points and 11 assists! It's hard for you to imagine that these are two Dragon Country players in the NBA Finals. This represents the whole world. Data delivered in two quarters at the highest level of basketball!”

Director Sun in the CCTV live broadcast room said excitedly: "This not only means the success of the two players' personal careers, but also the success of our country's national system, and it is also the success of generations of basketball players! Not to mention the success of the top ten. Years ago, even two years ago, this was a scene that was unimaginable!”

The guest coach Zhang was also full of passion and choked up several times. As the most famous basketball player in the history of the Dragon Kingdom, he was the first generation to follow the Dragon Kingdom men's basketball team to participate in the Asian Championships and win three consecutive championships. He was also the absolute main force just this year. The leader of the Men's Basketball Olympic Hope Team and the columnist of NBA Time and Space. His understanding of basketball and the NBA is definitely the best in the country today: "Yes, I have begun to look forward to the two of them representing the Dragon Country. The scene of competing in the 2004 Olympics. Everyone said that Kobe Bryant’s basketball was as beautiful as a picture, and Jordan was that picture, but now I want to say that the scene of Lin Dong and Yao Ming competing on the same stage was even more beautiful!”

"Haha, the painting comes from the scene. Director Zhang's words are already the highest praise for the two of them. Normally, no basketball player would dare to bear such a comment, but I personally think that Lin Dong jumped out of the box in this scene. Jordan's superstar model explained this to us in a very profound way in his unique way and in a team basketball way that belongs to the Dragon Kingdom and more international teams. Yao also broke through himself and became a historical-level inside center. At the top, this pair is like Olajuwon and Jordan back then!”

"The composition of this world is diversified. Basketball cannot be without Jordan, but basketball can never be just Jordan! Let us look forward to the two Dragon Kingdom players having better performance in the second half. There will be no loser in this game. Regardless of whether the Wizards or the SuperSonics can stand in this finals and contribute such a wonderful game to the world, they are both winners!"

"At present, it seems that both sides are gaining momentum, but Dayao has to pay attention to his physical strength in the third quarter. The SuperSonics' full-court fast break will speed up the rhythm and the speed of offense and defense transitions. This is a problem for Dayao's physical strength. It was a huge test, and Sakuragi Hanamichi's blockage of Dayao when he returned to the field on the defensive end was also an important part of intensifying Dayao's physical exhaustion. "

"Yes, although the tactical styles of both sides are different, the final strength and effect are too close. When the technical and tactical skills cannot be distinguished, physical strength will become the key to the victory or defeat of each other!"

"If there used to be more people supporting the Wizards in the Dragon Country, now, I'm afraid those who support the Sonics can keep pace with the Wizards. After all, the SuperSonics not only have Lin Dong, the hottest basketball star in the Dragon Country, but also The NBA’s first team owned by the owner of Dragon Country, live footage has been given to Supersonics owner Yang Dong, hahaha, and her two famous brand bags that are already world-famous!”

"Okay, let's cut back to the scene!"

The camera started to zoom up along with Yang Dong and her two huge LV bags, to an angle overlooking the entire scene.

- Michael! Michael! Michael!

——Yao! Yao! Yao!

——Wizard! Wizard! Wizard!

Bang bang bang bang bang...

Buzz buzz...

The cheers of countless fans, the singing and dancing of the cheerleaders, and the noisy and huge buzz of more than 20,000 people at the scene shook the entire MCI Center Arena, and the multi-million-dollar arena The lighting system built also illuminates the entire arena brightly!

The camera then lowered, and the Wizards players could be seen gathering around Jordan.

Jordan, Yao Ming, Artest and other main players were sitting on the chairs on the bench, while Doug Collins squatted in front of several main players with a tactical board and kept explaining, surrounded by the remaining bench players of the Wizards.

Yao Ming's breathing seemed heavy. He kept drinking water and wiping his sweat. While listening to Doug Collins' explanation, Jordan next to him kept leaning over and whispering to him, as if they were communicating with each other. Tactical play in the second half.

The camera turned again and came to the SuperSonics bench.

Everyone from the Sonics gathered around at this time. Yang Dong stood aside with his hands folded and listened, while McMillan had just finished explaining the main tactics of the third quarter with a tactical board.

Sure enough, the views are exactly the same as those of CCTV Director Zhang.

Play quickly and use the team's overall offensive and defensive transition instead of sticking to a single offensive tactic like the elevator door.

Compared with scoring, the elevator door may be more stable and have a higher shooting rate, but firstly, it cannot break the existing offensive and defensive balance. Secondly, with the decline in physical strength, the outside shooting rate in the second half, even with the help of the elevator door Under such circumstances, it is impossible to maintain above 60%. Once the outside shooting rate begins to decline, the battle for the basket will become the key to victory or defeat.

That not only means a higher shooting percentage, but also means that rebounds can be used to ensure each other's second offense.

But Yao Ming's presence makes it impossible for the Sonics to compete for the initiative at the basket.

If you want to win the game, you must kill Yao Ming!

"That's a big man of 226 centimeters and 135 kilograms. Since you can't stop him for the time being, let's blow him up! Use the fast pace of offense and defense to break him!" McMillan kept tapping the tactical board and shouting Said: "Sakuragi, the defensive end continues to put pressure on Yao Ming and try your best to prevent him from returning to the court. Whether you stop him for two seconds or three seconds, every second you stop him is a huge blow to him." Consume! Also watch for my signals!”

"I will observe his physical performance from the sidelines. Once his athletic ability declines significantly, then I will give you a signal while his illness kills him. At that time, you will be directly separated from the offensive end and you can score with confidence. Leave it to Lin to take over, which requires you to lock him down and tire him out, and that is more important than anything else!"

"Lin! If you have the chance, you can also try to attack the inside and create defensive pressure on Yao Ming. You maintained your physical strength very well in the first half. This is our biggest advantage!"

"And everyone else, if Sakuragi is escaped by Yao Ming, as long as you are nearby and give up your defense, every second you can stop him will count!"

"Besides, press the whole court! Force them to play fast and don't be afraid to waste energy. You have to know that the Wizards don't have much energy!"

"Remember, do everything possible to tire him down! Only by driving Yao Ming out of the game, and only by leaving Jordan alone and without helpers around him, can we win this game!"

Frankly speaking, the SuperSonics are actually in trouble right now, not only because of the decline in hit rate after physical exhaustion, but what is even more uncomfortable is that the Sonics do not have a sixth person who can complete the battle with this team in a battle of this level. Rotation for anyone in the main lineup.

Needless to say, Lin Dong is the absolute leader on the court, and in the first half, when he focused more on following the team’s tactical moves rather than single-handedly attacking, it is best for him to play for 48 minutes. Basic requirements and the most reasonable application.

No one can replace Payton and Sakuragi Hanamichi. Not only are they the core of the elevator door tactics, but only with their defensive awareness and Sakuragi Hanamichi's physical fitness and small movements can they complete the 'fit' and close the door in an instant. If If someone else from the Sonics comes up, a similar elevator door tactic will be blown into a mobile pick-and-roll.

As for Brent and Iguodala, they were originally the most important rotation roles in the SuperSonics rotation, but now the elevator door is pursuing outside three-pointers, and only these two are the most accurate for the Sonics' outside three-pointers.

Desmond's three-pointers in other regular rotations are too unstable. Earl Watson and veteran Livingston have no outside players, not to mention clumsy inside players like Pedrague and Vin Baker. Not only do they not have 3 points, and can't even keep up with the running and gunning rhythm of this small five-death lineup. If he really needs to be replaced, it will become a drag on the entire team.

To put it bluntly, the Sonics lack a true outside shooter on the bench, and their bench depth is still too shallow.

But the Wizards have a bigger problem. In this physical tug-of-war with the Sonics, they don't dare to breathe a sigh of relief, and they don't have any players who can replace the main force.

Both sides are already at a disadvantage. When each other's focus and rhythm have reached this level, why don't they take turns and take a break? It will be blown up directly...

The lineup cannot be changed, and the tactics at the current stage have basically not changed much. Then the only thing left is to work hard to defeat the opponent.

Physical strength is the key to breaking the balance!

Lin Dong turned to look in the direction of the Wizards and saw Jordan talking to Yao Ming. Although the two men could feel their absolute concentration, Yao could still see his chest even after resting for more than ten minutes. It keeps fluctuating greatly.

Lin Dong knew that Dayao was indeed facing physical problems.

It doesn't have much to do with zone. This can be seen from Yao Ming's calm eyes at this time. He is not as excited as a player in normal state 2, and zone's intense consumption of physical strength is mostly due to excitement. Caused by emotions placing unnecessary burden on the body.

The so-called zone is just a statement put forward by some sports experts in later generations. In fact, it relies purely on people's control of their mental will to achieve the effects of doping. Most people's zone status is similar, but it also varies from person to person.

Under normal circumstances, Lin Dong and Jordan are in state 1 to state 3, but Yao Ming may be different.

Because of his calm and mature mentality, it is difficult for him to enter the zone state, but once he enters and takes control, he will jump directly to version 2.5.

This is somewhere between state 2 and state 3.

He will not put extra burden on his body due to his overly excited mental state, but some bursts beyond the limit during exercise will inevitably consume his physical strength.

To put it simply, it means fighting too hard than normal.

In Lin Dong's eyes, Yao, who can step into zone 2.5, has surpassed his previous life, and the combination with Jordan has allowed him to evolve earlier than in his previous life. His skills, playing style, understanding of basketball, and even His confidence on the court and so on have surpassed the peak of his previous life.

At this time, even compared with the two centers rated as the strongest in NBA history, Yao Ming is calmer and wiser than O'Neal, and he is also a better free throw shooter than Tim Duncan, and he has both of them at the same time. With almost all the advantages of a person, whether it is pressure at the basket, leadership ability or selfless style of play, it can be said that this is the most perfect center.

But no matter how perfect a person is, there are always flaws.

And Yao Ming's shortcoming is physical strength!

After all, he has only been in the NBA for less than two years, and his physical fitness has not yet been fully developed. However, he has a heavier body than in his previous life and can do more things than he did at the same time in his previous life. He is even required to play a full 48 minutes. And so on... His current physical reserves may not even reach the peak of his previous life.

A smile appeared on Lin Dong's lips, and he knew that McMillan's judgment was extremely correct.

If you want to win, you must tire out Dayao in the third quarter and take out Jordan's key thigh!

There is no personal relationship on the battlefield, sorry Dayao.

"Sakura..." Lin Dong pulled Sakuragi Hanamichi's head and explained a few words.

beep!

The 15-minute break in the midfield ended quickly. With the referee's whistle, the players from both sides returned to the field again.

The second half of the game begins!

SuperSonics possession.

Brent passed the midfielder with the ball, and Lin Dong responded immediately.

Just relying on Sakuragi Hanamichi's targeted interceptions on the defensive end cannot completely defeat Dayao. It requires the cooperation of the whole team and the use of offense and defense transitions to break Dayao's rhythm.

call!

Lin Dong, who was catching the ball, didn't even think about looking at Jordan and making eye contact. He turned quickly with just one step and threw Jordan away from him.

Jordan was also a little caught off guard. After all, apart from leading the team to a few goals in the first half, Lin Dongqiang didn't hit him many times, let alone such a sudden change of pace.

I thought that the SuperSonics were playing good team basketball and would continue their team offense in the third quarter. But looking at Lin Dong's attitude, is this the third quarter where he plans to go all out?

At this time, Lin Dong broke through from the right. Although Jordan was thrown to his side, he could barely hang on. Yao, who was under the basket, took a step forward.

The next second, Lin Dong jumped up, and Jordan and Yao Ming's blockade defenses were deployed at the same time. However, Lin Dong didn't even think about trying to attack the frame. His body slightly bent in the air, grabbing the ball with his right hand and passing it from Jordan and Yao Ming. Ming barely stretched out his armpit and threw the ball towards the left side of the penalty area.

Snapped!

Sakuragi Hanamichi catches the ball.

The penalty area is at a 45-degree angle, a mid-range position where he is best at.

——Sakuragi, remember, you have to be decisive when shooting. Our goal is to play rhythm, to play fast, and to score goals in the fastest way!

——Yao Ming's power is unmatched, but he can't run fast! Only if there are enough offensive and defensive rounds and fast enough, is the most advantageous weapon to make Yao Ming tired!

Sakuragi Hanamichi stood up without hesitation.

Uh-huh!

2 points scored, 68:74, SuperSonics kicked off the second half with Sakuragi's goal!

Very fast pace.

Jordan was aware of some changes in the Sonics' rhythm and seemed to want to play faster.

As a teammate, he is actually more aware of Yao Ming's physical condition. The SuperSonics want to rely on fast pace to stretch Yao Ming's physical strength first.

We have to stabilize the rhythm first and give Yao some breathing space...

But while Jordan was still thinking this, before the Wizards could even respond, the Sonics' second move was already connected.

The whole place presses!
