Basketball: Starting from the Rodman template

Alston's height is only 1 meters.
但众所周知的一件事情，男生的1米80，1米70，还有女生的1米60跟1米68……都是统称。

1米78/1米79的男生都会说自己的身高是1米80.
In the NBA, 1 meters and 85 meters are two very sensitive numbers.

Generally speaking, most players who say they are of this height are actually shorter than this figure.

So LeBron James saw clearly that there was a "big net" on the other side, waiting for him to get into it.

LeBron thus encountered an embarrassing problem like Hamlet:
To break through or not to break through...

Knowing that there are many traps laid out on the opposite side, it is really a difficult choice whether to carry the "explosive bag" and risk one's life.

But the problem is that Wade on the opposite side just dunked him.

It was done tonight under the watchful eyes of more than 1 Clevelanders.

If we don't get the situation back, we will really be embarrassing ourselves at home.

After thinking twice, LeBron James took the ball and went straight in.

Shaquille O'Neal did a good job of positioning himself in front of him based on his movement.

"Bah!"

LeBron is worthy of the title of "Locomotive". He bumped into Shaq so hard that he actually took two or three steps back.

This huge impact made Shaquille O'Neal's eyes widen.

Damn it, did a person really bump into me?

Nothing else?

Is this guy really only 19 years old?
But forget it, he committed an offensive foul anyway.

Shaquille O'Neal clearly heard the whistle, but the cheers from the audience rang out the next moment, which made Shackleton stunned and turned his head to look.

WTF!

He was unhappy at the time...

Blocking fouls?

Is this actually a blocking foul?

Shaq quickly gestured with his feet towards the referee and shouted:
"These feet were already standing here last night, and I watched him bump into me!"

Unfortunately, the referee ignored his complaints and quickly stood on the sidelines and signaled the Cavaliers to serve again.This made Shaquille O'Neal so angry and aggrieved that he felt like a [-]-pound fat man.

LeBron over there received the ball as usual, but his steps were more hesitant, indicating that Shaq O'Neal's block just had a big impact on him.

Although he knocked back Shaquille O'Neal, the huge backlash also made him feel uncomfortable.

Barkley looked at his hesitation and said again: "Seriously, if a guy like Alston was standing in front of me, I would raise my hand to shoot without hesitation. What's the difference between this and letting go? "

"Or he should really watch Johnson's game videos and see how he handles these balls!"

"Magic" Johnson is not a tall one who is good at shooting, but when he faces the opponent's short defender, he will not hesitate to use his wide and thick body to punish the opponent.

As for LeBron James, so far, nothing but breakthroughs are breakthroughs.

However, the Heat's inside line tonight was really difficult for him to rush into the inside line.

"I can see LeBron getting stronger this summer, the same as Woody, but that's not the main thing, look at Woody's post-up now! LeBron should know what the right way to work hard is! "

Amid Barkley's criticism, LeBron James finally chose to force a breakthrough. The moment Shaq made up for it, he immediately lobbed the ball toward the basket in an attempt to give it to Big Z who was left open.

But Woody next to him noticed this very keenly. At the same time as LeBron made a move, he moved towards Big Z, jumped high, and completed the interception first.

During the Heat's counterattack time, Woody took the ball to the frontcourt, and the Cavaliers quickly returned to defense with McGinnis.

Although he also has the ability to defend forward players, he faces forward players who are more focused on the 4th position. At the same time, he is already 10cm taller than him!

"Let's see how Woody handles misplaced balls!" Barkley saw this duel in his eyes and his voice suddenly became louder.

The picture he expected appeared:

When Woody discovered that the person guarding him was McGinnis at the second position, he immediately used his back to stick to him. During the confrontation, he forced his way to the basket, successfully rushed to the basket and completed the score.

"Shh!"

Easy two points.

From the speed of McGinnis' return to defense, the Cavaliers did not miss a beat in their return defense in this round.

Most big players will definitely not have time to return to defense at this time.

But Woody successfully seized this opportunity that was about to disappear by using his new weapon "Back Hit", which he gradually became more proficient in.

"That's what I said, seize the opportunity!"

Buckley pounded the table hard, every tone expressing his satisfaction with Woody's turn.

The look he is looking at LeBron James is becoming more and more problematic.

In his opinion, Woody is a player who progresses at a normal pace.

On the other hand, LeBron, when he started touting himself as the "Proud Man of Heaven" two or three years ago, seemed to have nothing but his body. Now that two or three years have passed, the only thing he can use is his body.

But when it comes to physical fitness, how much worse are these "beasts" from the 90s than him?

They still have to rely on technology to become the top superstar, and LeBron James is bound to follow this path, but the problem is that he still relies on the most instinctive way to attack.

Judging from the data, he may be successful.

After all, the current growth in his data is indeed outstanding.

But on some nights, like tonight, when facing a team with a "heavy tank" like Shaquille O'Neal, he immediately changes back to what he was last season. The more problem is that He has too few offensive methods.

In the 90s, there was no player with a single offensive method who achieved great success.

Including Michael Jordan, with such an exploded body, he did not win a championship in the first 8 years of his career. Of course, Michael Jordan had other problems affecting him. His skills were obviously inferior to those of LeBron James during this period. Several times more than that.

Even Michael Jordan has to constantly improve his offense. LeBron James has never had obvious growth in offensive skills. No wonder Barkley criticized him so harshly.

Well, actually there is another reason:
Buckley was also venting his anger on Woody.

The media, led by ESPN, attributed the reason why LeBron James is currently not as successful as Woody to luck, which is really insulting to Woody.

He saw with his own eyes the sweat that Woody put into improving and becoming a better player.He will not allow the media to slander the "next Barkley" like this.

This game is just the beginning of the criticism of LeBron James!

The Cavaliers had to call a timeout at this time.

Because LeBron James' start was too disparate.

Barkley may have some personal feelings, and the ESPN commentary booth was not very satisfied with LeBron James' performance tonight.

First, he was dunked, and then he made a pass error and was intercepted by Woody... "He looked completely unprepared. This was not the performance he should have performed in his recent hot state... We all know that such a game starts from They showed an eagerness to win from the very beginning! But the Cavaliers didn't look like that at all." Drexler criticized harshly, almost saying directly that the game was over.

In the end, in order for the fans to be interested in continuing to watch, I added another sentence: "It's possible that the game has just started, so let's continue watching..."

After the timeout, there were no substitutions on either side.

LeBron James took the ball to the frontcourt and became more hesitant. Barkley seized the opportunity to criticize LeBron James' "weapon arsenal" again: "It's really too single. Everyone knows that he is going to break through, and with When this is targeted, he doesn’t have many ways to solve the offense..."

He's going to pass it!

Before these words were spoken, LeBron made a cool pass on the spot. He deliberately moved his head to the side and passed the ball to Drew Gooden who came out.

Gooden, who had the ball in his hand, was a little confused.

no……

You just give me the ball, what should I do?
Gooden, who did not have three skill packages, barely made a three-pointer.

what?
You ask why he doesn't rush to the basket?
Look at Woody opposite, he must be able to move!

"Dangdang!"

The shot barely missed, but the ball bounced very far. LeBron caught the ball with quick eyes and hands, and then directly attacked the frame. Shaquille O'Neal interfered in time, but he still allowed him to put the ball into the basket.

The Cavaliers finally finished scoring.

But if we play like this every round...

The audience at the scene burst into cheers that they had not heard for a long time, and they were all stifled.

The head coach of the Cavaliers looked serious.

This is not the normal scoring process for the Cavaliers.

Woody served the ball directly from the basket to Alston. Alston dribbled to the frontcourt. Wade came from the wing and faked the ball, shaking the Cavaliers and helping Shaquille O'Neal completely clear the ball. One side of defense.

Shaq catches the ball and goes 1-on-1 with Big Z[-]!

The man-eating "shark" is here!
The violent confrontation crushed Big Z like a noodle machine, and then he raised his hand and scored an easy layup.

The whole process takes less than 4 seconds.

The attack time was short and the speed was so fast that Quicken Loans Arena, which had finally made some noise, suddenly fell silent.

Shaquille O'Neal, on the other hand, looked like he hadn't settled the score yet, and he looked fierce when returning to defense.

The defense just called him a "blocking foul", which really made him angry.

LeBron James saw all this in his eyes. He was a little happy when he saw the referee call Shaq a defensive foul. Now he didn't know whether the referee was helping him or hurting him.

In the Cavaliers' offensive round, the entire movement was like squeezing out toothpaste.That's called "barely trying" but "can't get ahead".

In the end, LeBron James was "looking for a little hope of a breakthrough in the chaos", called a pick-and-roll, muddied the water, and then rushed towards the basket with a fierce shot.

Shaquille O'Neal specifically looked down at his feet this time and did not step on the line of the reasonable collision zone. He looked at LeBron again. He was still two positions away from him, but he had already stood firm.

Now as long as LeBron doesn't avoid it, it will be his "offensive foul"!

From this picture, we can actually see that Shaquille O'Neal also worked hard tonight.

You know, this is a "small truck"!

After being hit once, having the courage to go up and get hit again is a very difficult thing in itself.

Shaquille O'Neal took such an attitude.

"Bah!"

LeBron maximized his power, so it was naturally difficult to dodge.

"beep!"

The referee's whistle.

Again……

Shaq's foul!
"WTF!"

Now even Stan Van Gundy couldn't stand it any longer. He roared and leaned towards the referee with a hoarse voice.As a result, amid the cheers of the audience, the referee gave him a technical foul.

The Cavaliers got a free throw opportunity.

"Shh!"

LeBron stepped to the free throw line and made a solid free throw.

The look on the Heat's side is already very ugly.

But there is one problem that must be dealt with first, and that is Shaq's foul problem.

In less than 3 minutes of the game, he got two fouls, so he definitely had to rest off the court.

"The Cavaliers' opportunity has come!" Bill Walton accurately captured this information. "For the rest of the first quarter, the Heat will not have Shaq on the court. This is definitely an opportunity for the Cavaliers. LeBron wants to get it back. The state must also be in the remaining time of the first quarter!"

Kenny Smith looked at Barkley, who had been silent for a long time, and said: "Although Shaq's foul is somewhat controversial, one thing is for sure, this game will become more exciting!"

After all, this is "Live Broadcast across America", it can't be crushed all the way to the end, right?

"Rest, Shaq. I'll wait for you to come on the court later to end the game!" Before he came on the court, Woody calmly patted Shaq on the shoulder and said a few words of comfort.

His look fell on Stephen Curry's eyes.

Curry knows very well that his brother is angry!
The calmer Woody is, the "oil" in his body has already boiled, waiting to explode!
If the Cavaliers think this is their chance from now on, that would be a very wrong idea.

The timeout ended and the game restarted. During the Cavaliers' offensive round, Shaquille O'Neal was sitting on the sidelines. LeBron James' hesitation immediately disappeared. With the ball in hand, he just looked at it briefly.

The Heat's No. [-] position is Udonis Haslem.

Then force a breakthrough directly.

Alston was directly pushed away by him. He stepped on the free throw line and glanced at the positions of Woody and Haslem. Seeing that neither of them had any intention of coming up to defend, he rushed towards the basket with all his strength.

But when he looked up again, there were already two more hands on top of his head.

It's Haslem.

LeBron had no intention of retreating. He just held up Haslem and reached forward with his hand, trying to complete the "extreme basket pick" through the rotation of his wrist.

He has enough confidence in his handwork.

But just as he stretched out his hand, another pair of big hands pressed down on the ball accurately.

"Snapped!"

Big hat from Woody! (End of chapter)
