Chapter 61 NBA Debut 2

This is indeed true. The tactical arrangement at the beginning of today really focuses on Wang Hao.

Paul Westphal made the impromptu adjustment after seeing the Clippers' starting lineup.

In fact, not only did he do this, but Clippers head coach Chris Ford also did this.

Odom and Wang Hao are quite different in height, and one is a standard inside player and the other is an outside player.

From a counterpoint perspective, this is unequal.

When Odom faced Wang Hao, he had many options to choose from. He could hold his head high, or he could use his strength to fight hard.

They just refused to give in. What they didn't expect was that Wang Hao could actually hold Odom in a power confrontation.

After all, Odom is not a standard inside player.

Moreover, Odom's fight against Wang Hao was misplaced, but similarly, when Wang Hao faced Odom, it was a small fight against a big one.

Chris Ford mainly plays Odom, which is expected. After all, the Clippers don't have many good players.

As for Paul Westphal, he is consciously cultivating Wang Hao, hoping that he can build up his confidence as soon as possible.

Now it seems that Paul Westphal made the right choice.

Another round of offense. This time, Odom didn't pay attention to it and went straight to the low post.

He took the shot before Horace Grant's double-team came, but Wang Hao interfered effectively and still missed the shot.

Don't forget, although Wang Hao's height has a disadvantage, his wingspan can slightly make up for it.

There are many ways to interfere with defense, and it doesn't necessarily have to be blocking shots.

Returning to the Sonics' offense, it was still the same tactical arrangement. Wang Hao used his off-ball movement to look for opportunities.

With the continuous pick-and-rolls of Wen Baker and Horace, Wang Hao finally found a chance and got rid of Odom.

This time, Odom took advantage of his teammates' delay and caught up without giving Wang Hao an open shot.

However, facing Wang Hao who was about to throw, Odom inevitably rushed too hard, and Wang Hao immediately broke through.

Being so tall, it is naturally difficult to control the center of gravity. Wang Hao's breakthrough was simply effortless.

He went directly to the basket, and the Clippers' defense was instantly torn apart. At this time, there was only one choice.

Should he choose to let Wang Haoru go to the basket without anyone in sight, or should he choose to cover up?

This is obvious.

Maurice Taylor reacted immediately and blocked Wang Hao's way to the inside.

Wang Hao is very clear-headed. If he advances stupidly at this time, wouldn't it be a tough move?

After completely attracting Maurice Taylor, he tapped lightly while dribbling, and the basketball passed through the gap and fell into Horace's hands.

Although he was older, Horace maintained his condition quite well. Seeing no one was marking him, he immediately made a powerful dunk.

5:0

“The beautiful pass, the vision and the control of the pass, it’s just amazing.

First of all, it must be said that Wang Hao's choice was very reasonable. He did not force a shot, but chose to break through, attract the defense and then pass the ball.

It seems very simple to us, but the situation on the field is ever-changing and there is no time for you to think about it.

At this critical moment, it is undoubtedly very rare to make the most reasonable choice."

Zhang Lili's voice once again spread to thousands of households with China Television.

After missing two consecutive attacks, Odom did not hesitate and chose to pick and roll.

Facing a player smaller than himself, he actually used a pick-and-roll. This was undoubtedly a very failed move.

However, a pick-and-roll did allow Odom to break through easily, and even attracted a double-team from Wang Hao.

At this time, Odom's advantages as a big ball handler are revealed, including his wide passing vision and passing ability.

Shooting guard Derek Anderson took the ball from outside the three-point line, but it bounced out due to interference from Brent Barry.

Wang Hao protected the rebound and went straight to the fast break without stopping for a moment. This is also the Sonics' tactic.

After all, the Clippers' lineup is too tall, which prevents them from being very fast when retreating.

Wang Hao carried the ball into the paint and chose to do it himself. While protecting the basketball, he rushed directly to the basket.

This was my trump card when I was playing basketball at St. John's University.

Faced with Wang Hao's impact, Derek Anderson was powerless and could only choose to foul.

Despite Derek Anderson's foul, Wang Hao still threw the basketball forcefully towards the basket.

Unfortunately, after the basketball hit the rim twice, it still failed to fall into the net, and the three-pointer failed.

The referee signaled the thug to commit a foul and two free throws were awarded.

Wang Hao stood on the free throw line, adjusting his breathing and waiting for the referee to throw the ball over.

"Like shit!"

"F***!"

"Roar!"

…

Clippers fans were already yelling and making all sorts of unpleasant sounds.

In order to interfere with the opponent's free throws, the fans of all teams are the same, and they will do anything they can.

However, this wasn't the first time he encountered it.

As early as when he was playing in the NCAA, he had encountered fans who were so crazy that taking off their clothes was a trivial matter, and some even took off their pants.

Wang Hao was calm and made two free throws steadily.

It was during the free throw period that the Clippers chose to make their first substitution, with Te'lonesby replacing Maurice Taylor.

In fact, it's not that Maurice Taylor didn't play well, but that Odom's position needs to be adjusted.

Odom was moved to the fourth position, and Naseby was moved to the third position.

Asking Horace to defend Naseby is obviously not successful and cannot keep up at all.

Wang Hao and Horace can only make adjustments, with him guarding Naseby and Horace guarding Odom.

Horace is indeed a defensive expert, but he is old and has a huge speed disadvantage.

No, in the first round of the Clippers' attack, Odom successfully broke through Horace and hit a mid-range hit.

7:2

When the SuperSonics attacked, Wang Hao was still actively running, but Naseby was also following closely.

Not only him, but other players are also assisting him. If they can, they will be replaced. If they cannot, they will be delayed, and they will not give him an opportunity to catch the ball in an open position.

More importantly, he is not Ray Allen after all, and the SuperSonics are not his team.

After one round of tactical failure, the Sonics directly changed their style of play and let Vin Baker play in the paint.

Although Sugar Man is taller, Wen Baker is more experienced and skilled.

I saw Wen Beike make a fake move, shake the candy man away and immediately break through, and he was about to come up.

With his younger body and faster speed, Sugarman caught up and jumped the ball high, trying to block the shot from behind.

Who would have thought, this was another fake move. After shaking the candy man away, Wen Baker easily made a layup.

From a tactical core to a functional player, Wang Hao adjusted very promptly.

Since he can't catch the ball from the outside, he focuses on defense.

Sure enough, when Odom passed the ball back to Naseby from the inside, Wang Hao stabbed out diagonally and successfully stole the ball.

While stealing the ball, he had already strode towards the opponent's half, and without anyone marking him, he demonstrated a Golden State LaVine-level dunk.
