Sports medicine starts with the Sun Miracle Doctor

Chapter 202 The elective template is Olajuwon

How does Webber play in his prime?

Many media will use their words to praise the most comprehensive big man in the league.

Although he cannot become the core of defense like Duncan and Garnett, he has excellent athletic ability and a wider range of activities. He can even move near the three-point line, pick and roll for others, provide support, and when the interest comes, he can open the space. In this case, he can even throw a three-pointer.

In his fourth year in the league, he was once able to shoot close to 40% of his three-point field goals.

He can play both outside and inside, and is good at mid-range shots. He is also good at attacking with the ball in the low post facing the frame. He has all kinds of low post skills at his fingertips. He is also strong and strong. Those who are taller than him are not as fast as him, and those who are faster than him are not as strong as him.

He is simply omnipotent, scoring 20 plus 10 is as easy as eating and drinking.

Even, by the way, he can average about 5 assists per game, including blocks and steals.

But at this moment, Weber suddenly remembered that before he entered the league, the title of the most comprehensive inside player seemed to belong to the 39-year-old guy in front of him.

That's right, 39.

Weber looked numbly at the old guy who was following him closely, refusing to give in an inch, and felt helpless in his heart.

He can still run!

Weber could hear Olajuwon's heavy breathing, but no matter how he moved, Olajuwon could always appear near him.

After receiving the ball, there was not much time left to attack. Webber immediately started, turned his back, and rushed to the right, but it was a feint shot, a change of direction and a step, trying to squeeze in from Olajuwon's left side.

But it didn't move.

It felt like hitting a wall, and the tough confrontation caused Weber's movements to become somewhat deformed.

He lowered his waist and wanted to feint again.

But Olajuwon didn't stumble at all. Instead, he saw it accurately. He jumped up almost at the same time as Webber, stretched his arms, and interfered with Webber's hook.

"Rebound!"

Before he even landed, there was a shout.

Behind him, Ewing jumped up and carried Divac to grab the rebound.

But the moment he landed, Divac screamed and fell backwards in an exaggerated manner.

The whistle sounded at the same time.

Ewing grabbed the basketball and yelled angrily at the referee: "He was diving, didn't you see it?"

The referee kept a straight face, but wisely avoided looking at Ewing, who was once a league superstar.

"Okay." Olajuwon turned around and grabbed Ewing.

This is how Divac plays. Although he doesn't like it, there are always some thieves in the league, but this is how they make a living.

Divac went to the free throw line and made a steady free throw.

The Suns attack.

In fact, especially in the playoffs, the Suns also played a similar offense to the Kings.

Continuously conduct and share the ball.

When Olajuwon comes to the fourth position, he also needs to pull the high pick-and-roll and support like Webber.

It's just that the Kings will shoot a lot of three-pointers and rely on outside shooting, while the Suns mainly focus on breakthroughs and killing.

Weber followed Olajuwon.

Hardaway started, took advantage of Olajuwon's cover, and went straight to the basket.

However, the direction changed during the movement, drawing the defensive attention to the right side of the basket. Suddenly he hit the ground and passed the ball, and Olajuwon just followed up.

Weber followed suit.

But Olajuwon made an emergency stop and was about to shoot.

The action was so real that Weber reached forward almost reflexively.

The moment he took action, Weber realized that he had been fooled.

Sure enough, Olajuwon took advantage of the situation, passed by Weber's body, and scored with a basket.

Weber's scalp went numb for a while, and he suddenly remembered that the person in front of him who invented the dream footwork was his ancestor when it came to footwork under the basket.

On the sidelines, Adelman, in a suit and tie, looked up at the score.

16:19.

The Kings are 3 points behind.

There is only one and a half minutes left in the crucial first quarter.

In other words, close to one quarter of the game, the Kings scored less than 20 points.

This is very abnormal.

Looking at the regular season scoring average, the Kings should have scored as many as 26 points in one quarter.

Like in the first quarter, when he has the most energy and feels good, the Kings can easily score 30 points this season.

Getting this score only shows that the Suns are very defensive.

The high-intensity defense did make the Kings a little uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Next to him, the gray-haired Pete Carrier said: "Rick, is it time to rotate?"

Until now, the main force has not rested for even a minute.

Adelman didn't speak, but turned his head and glanced at the other side.

The Suns haven't rotated yet, and they have the momentum to let the starters play the entire quarter.

In Adelman's impression, Skiles is not a head coach who is obsessed with the main force.

Even if this is the playoffs, using the main force like this is a bit exaggerated.

Do you really believe in Chen Yu’s ability?

Adelman's eyes fell on Chen Yu in the second row of the bench.

Of course, he has studied the Suns' first-round game against the Mavericks, and also noticed that Olajuwon and Ewing played a long time, but still maintained sufficient physical strength.

He suspected that it was Chen Yu's method. There were media reports during the season that Chen Yu was very good at maintaining players' condition.

Otherwise, could this bunch of veterans be so healthy and play the entire season?

After some thought, Adelman took the lead in making the substitution.

Entered Bobby Jackson and replaced Bibby.

Bibby is very strong, but Kidd is taller, stronger, and notoriously good at defense. He also has the same top-notch game reading ability as Bibby, or even better.

Therefore, Bibby's performance so far in the game can be described as terrible, making 3 of 0 shots and not scoring a single point. Replacing Bibby also allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

Then Divac, who was inside, was also replaced by Adelman.

This is also a 34-year-old guy.

Carrying a tough guy like Ewing on the inside, he has already contributed the best acting skills in his life, and he also needs to take a breather.

Fucked a younger Scott Pollard.

He doesn't have much scoring ability, but he is diligent and willing to do the dirty work.

As soon as he saw the Kings rotating, Skiles also immediately rotated.

But what Adelman didn't expect was that Skiles replaced Kidd and Marion.

Olajuwon and Ewing, the two old guys who should have been replaced the most, were actually left on the court.

Mario Elie and Dan Marley were substituted.

Hardaway came to the No. 1 position to control the ball.

With 1 minute left on the clock, Skiles wanted to grab two 3-pointers to see if he could widen the point difference.

The idea worked.

Without Doug Christie's entanglement, Hardaway can also breathe a sigh of relief.

Hardaway's organization is different from Kidd's. Kidd is a traditional point guard. He can always send the ball where it should go, control the rhythm of the game, and is a master of field control.

Hardaway, on the other hand, is more spiritual. He prefers to rely on his personal ability to attract enough defensive attention and then send the ball to the open space like a cold arrow.

With a very simple change of pace, Hardaway got rid of Bobby Jackson and went straight to the basket.

In an instant, Hardaway attacked, Olajuwon followed, and the Kings' defensive attention was drawn.

Hardaway raised his arm while moving and flicked it.

Bobby Jackson was frightened and turned his head reflexively to attack Olajuwon.

Then he was surprised to find that Olajuwon didn't have the ball in his hands.

Looking back, Bobby Jackson discovered that the ball had been sent to the bottom corner behind Hardaway.

This pass made Bobby Jackson's scalp numb.

Mario Eli stood there, and Peja had no time to counterattack and could only watch him take a three-pointer.

A solid hit.

In the playoffs, these veterans don't have much playing time, but they are like ephemeral flowers, recharging their energy just for that moment to bloom.

18 to 25, the first quarter ended.

The Suns' score was not high, but it suppressed the Kings' score to an extremely low level.

This performance made Kevin Johnson in the NBC studio say that the Suns were really trying their best.

The two old guys Olajuwon and Ewing played the entire quarter.

Especially Olajuwon, running around with Ewing, doesn't look like a 39-year-old veteran at all.

"The Suns' defense is surprisingly strong. I said in the series against the Mavericks that the Suns are a very resilient team. If the Kings don't find a way to crack it, they will be in danger in this game."

As Kevin Johnson said, Adelman's biggest headache now is how to break the Suns' defense and find the Kings' smooth offense.

Subconsciously, he felt that a defense like the Suns could not sustain the whole game.

Defense consumes energy and can even affect offense.

But when he saw Olajuwon still on the court in the second quarter, Adelman frowned.

This is to use people to death.

On the Suns bench, Ewing sat on the sidelines, panting like an ox.

"Relax and take a deep breath." Chen Yu squatted in front of him and massaged Ewing's calves.

Continuous running and high-intensity confrontation, the calves are the most prone to fatigue.

In this game, Skiles' strategy was to defend.

It also confirms whether the King can be defeated by relying on defense.

So after discussing with Chen Yu, a very strict rotation arrangement was made.

Olajuwon and Hardaway will play the entire game depending on the situation.

A defensive core and an offensive core ensure the upper and lower limits of the Suns.

During the halftime break, Chen Yu will devote limited time to the two of them to relieve their fatigue.

Ewing will rest for five minutes in the second quarter. During this time, Chen Yu will take the opportunity to massage him on the sidelines to relax his body and ensure that he has enough energy to finish the normal game.

As for Kidd and Marion, they are younger, so they can only endure it.

Who would dare to do such a rotation if Chen Yu didn't have the means to quickly relieve fatigue.

And the final effect is obvious.

In the second quarter, the Suns still maintained the lead.

Although the Kings made some three-pointers, these three-pointers relied more on personal ability and not on the opportunities created by Princeton, which they are proud of.

41:49.

At halftime, the Suns still maintained an 8-point lead.

The Kings, who played the most extreme offense in the league, only scored 41 points at halftime and silenced the entire Arco Stadium.

Adelman looked at Webb walking off the court and was also silent.

In the first half, Weber's performance was very poor. Not only did he fail to connect the team's offense, he only scored 7 points.

10 for 2 shots, that's crazy.

But when Adelman thought that Olajuwon was defending Weber, he felt relieved.

It seems normal.

You know, Weber's draft template is Olajuwon.

Li Gui bumped into Li Kui, and it was normal for him to be suppressed.
