58. The villain team (seeking the moon)(1/2)
The game is about to begin, and Zhang Hao sits on the sidelines.
Listen more, watch more, learn more...the old process is now.
The Nets' lineup is still the same, Kenny Anderson, Edwards, Gilliam, Jason Williams, and PJ Brown.
The Bulls sent Ron Harper, Jordan, Pippen, Rodman and Longley.
After the game started, the situation was not much the same as Zhang Hao imagined.
It's one-sided, but the lead is actually their Nets!
This is not important. Zhang Hao's attention is not on the score at all. He found that the Bulls seemed to be playing? The opponent's tactics actually use Rodman as the offensive end point to attack!
"No! No! They are really serious about playing tactics!"
Zhang Hao suddenly thought of a very special and interesting place in the tactical system of the future Celtics coach Brad Stevens, which revolves around Marcus Smart's shooting.
This tactic is not a conventional tactic, but a tactic under forced circumstances.
Zhang Hao suddenly realized that yes, when the Bulls were forced to score, they were really pushed to the limit.
Unlike the teammates on the court who felt the heartfelt humiliation and fighting more desperately, he had a shocking feeling that the Bulls were trying to find ways to become stronger even in such games.
But then, Zhang Hao felt so humiliated!
In the eyes of the Bulls coaching staff and players, the Nets are only worthy of being such a role!
This feeling is crazy! Although he is not on the court, he is also a member of the Nets. This feeling is really humiliating!
After playing 6 minutes and 8 seconds, the dead ball entered the timeout stage.
11-6, the Nets led by 5 points.
The score is so low... 5 points ahead, it looks pretty good, but this is a 5-point lead with the Bulls only scoring 7 points.
The Bulls' defense is not focused, and they can't even be very attentive, but the defensive abilities, awareness, and habits of the five players on the other side are too strong. Judging from this situation, even if the Bulls defend casually, Zhang Hao felt that it would be difficult for them to score a score of over 100.
"The three-point line is shortened, and the range from the three-point line to the reasonable collision zone becomes smaller, and there is no defense for three seconds... The one who benefits the most must be the team that is good at defending, but we are not!"
Zhang Hao was a little sad.
At this time, he heard Randy Whitman's call, and when he was not feeling, he burst into tears and jumped to the chief assistant coach.
"Kenny, Greg, Aix, Jason, PJ, you guys... don't get out of the way, fight well."
Randy Whitman actually said half a word!
Why do teammates feel that half of the sentence was said to Zhang Hao alone?
Zhang Hao was distracted just now.
The aroma of lemon is spreading...
Zhang Hao's attention has been focused on the court, and this time, he was placed in the small forward position.
He thinks that the position is similar...
Randy Whitman looked at Zhang Hao. He made such an arrangement because he did not want Zhang Hao and Rodman to play.
The timeout is almost over, and the referee signaled the players of both teams to play again.
Seeing the players on the opposite side, Randy Whitman was glad that he made such a decision, because none of the three strongest people on the opposite side did not get off the court!
Steve Cole, Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, and Bill Winnington's lineup are on the court!
...
At the moment when he stepped onto the court, Zhang Hao's previous nervousness, worries, etc. were wiped out.
He is trying hard to analyze possible favorable conditions. Perhaps the opponent does not care about their opponent at all. This is favorable conditions. If you make good use of favorable conditions, you may gain an advantage.
Also, standing on the same court with Jordan and playing against Jordan made Zhang Hao excited!
Then, from the first moment, Zhang Hao ushered in a nightmare...
When Zhang Hao came on the court, the Bulls' defense became obviously different. When he was running, there was always someone next to him!
Although he could not defend in the joint defense and could not attack in advance, no matter how Zhang Hao moved, he changed defenses from Steve Cole to Rodman on the other side.
Kenny Anderson reacted quickly and seized the opportunity to make a close throw and scored two points.
Zhang Hao's first attack played a big role. Kenny Anderson just used the gap exposed in the middle distance when the Bulls changed defense, but he was caught off guard by such a heavy defense.
I always felt something was wrong, but the game continued, so Zhang Hao immediately retreated and devoted himself to the defense.
The defense is not good, Zhang Hao has no choice for the time being. He needs time to learn and experience in the game, but his attitude is very important. First of all, you have to work hard on the defensive end to have the opportunity to learn how to defend in the game.
After Pippen advanced to the front court, Zhang Hao immediately came to the top arc to guard.
Pippen did not play singles, nor did he continue to look for opportunities to create opportunities for Rodman like before. Just when Zhang Hao was curious about what the other party was going to do, someone came next to him, Jordan, and Pippen began to break through from the left with a pick-and-roll!
"Does it take a pick-and-roll to deal with me?"
That's so righteous.
With a confident confusion, Zhang Hao quickly completed the defense change with Graham.
The switchable defense is useless quickly. Pippen averaged 22 points per game during his retirement! Facing their two forward defenses, they easily occupy favorable breakthrough space.
Just when Zhang Hao felt that Pippen wanted to score easily, Pippen hung the ball to Jordan!
Jordan relied on Zhang Hao to receive the ball and played singles on his back!
"How many meanings do this?"
Zhang Hao had no time to think, Jordan had already pushed him! He hurried back to Jordan.
However, Zhang Hao has been suppressed this time when he played against the Hornets on the outside in the past two games!
Jordan was 198 cm tall, 99.7 kg weight, and 93 strength evaluation... Zhang Hao was pushed back half a step. Jordan took advantage of the feedback force and turned over and bounced back. He made a steadily move in the air as if he was leaning against a wall...
Hollow hits the death!
Zhang Hao's defense almost did not interfere with it at all!
Moreover, Jordan did not avoid playing, but took the initiative to take advantage of Zhang Hao's two biggest advantages on the defensive end. static confrontation and height and wingspan.
Jordan, who landed on the ground, tilted his neck and said to Zhang Hao: "It's better to put a chair here than to defend you."
Zhang Hao felt stabbed in his little heart. Before the game, Kenny Anderson said that Jordan is the superstar who loves to bully rookies in the league today, and he doesn't even have one.
I was mentally prepared, but I was still uncomfortable!
Jordan quickly stepped back after he put out the trash talk, and Zhang Hao also got off the right time.
Zhang Hao has no chance to get a fast attack, and the Bulls did a good job of retreating!
"They actually have research on teams like us? Well...what is wrong?"
When he slowed down his speed and ran to the frontcourt, Zhang Hao quickly thought about how to deal with the Bulls' defense replacement, but no matter what he thought, based on the team's tactics and teammates' configuration, he found that there was no chance! Their conventional tactics made it difficult to create opportunities for pitchers under the Bulls' defense!
Then find a way to create breakthrough scoring opportunities for Kenny Anderson!
Zhang Hao thought so, and he did the same when he arrived in the frontcourt.
But after the Bulls defended for one round, they defended better in the next round. Kenny Anderson grasped the breakthrough gap that Zhang Hao was very strict when he was running. However, Jordan, who was replaced, was blocked. Kenny Anderson passed the ball to Graham who was in a big gap on the right sideline, and Graham made a three-pointer...
Failed!
Zhang Hao decisively cut into the inside when Graham took action. By chance, the ball flew in the direction where he was. When Zhang Hao was about to jump and grab the ball, Rodman appeared!
Rodman's operation scared Zhang Hao. Rodman jumped up and spread his legs in the air, his posture almost turned into a single horse. Zhang Hao jumped up and hit Rodman's leg. At this time, Rodman had already caught the ball before Zhang Hao, and was hit and rolled around...
The referee whistle sounded, and Zhang Hao fouled the rebound and pushed someone!
Just foul if you commit a foul. Zhang Hao has no intention of fighting for this. He is now full of question marks to grab a rebound. This man with a tattoo on his body and face, wearing a nose and lip ring... He looks particularly strange. He just plays a preseason game. Is it as for this kind of fighting?
I didn’t see this guy working so hard in the first half of the year! Why did Zhang Hao seem to have changed a team when he came up?
At this time, Zhang Hao felt something was wrong. In the next few rounds, he confirmed something, something he thought was incredible to him, the invincible army in his mind, actually targeted a rookie like him!
He was running, and the opponent used the switch to block the dead; he successfully counterattacked, and the opponent made a direct tactical foul; he accelerated regardless of the rhythm in the positional battle and received the ball, and the opponent surrounded him and attacked and stealed...
On the defensive end, Jordan stared at him and used the switch to fight him one-on-one. Even if someone from the Nets came to attack, Jordan did not pass the ball. What is the difference between one and two and an open position?
Even when grabbing rebounds, Rodman was like meeting an enemy who killed his father!
In terms of scores, it was quickly reversed. The Nets scored 11 points in the first quarter. When they finished the first quarter, their score only increased to 18 points. In nearly 6 minutes, the Nets scored only 7 points!
During this period of time when Jordan played crazy singles, he scored 13 points alone!
23-18, after the first quarter, the Bulls easily scored from 5 points behind to 5 points ahead!
After resting during the holidays, Zhang Hao was replaced and sat on the bench, he was a little confused.
There is no power to fight back... This is not important. He has thought that there will be no power to fight back when the Bulls will be.
But this is definitely not the process!
After reviewing the situation in the first quarter and feeling the changes in the emotions of his teammates, Zhang Hao suddenly figured out what was going on.
Intentionally! The Bulls started with intentionally "at random" defense!
Let Rodman take the lead. Although the Bulls have the idea of practicing while their Nets are weak, the fundamental goal is to make their Nets players relax!
To be continued...
