Chapter 360: Duncan intends to leave the Spurs?

After the timeout, the Spurs replaced Duncan and reorganized the Twin Towers lineup.

This time, Popovich changed his defensive tactics, letting David Robinson confront Zhao Dong and let Duncan defend on the weak side.

Not to mention, it really has some effect.

Robinson’s task is not to prevent Zhao Dong from killing him.

At the same time, he has to rely on his defensive height to try to influence Zhao Dong's passing vision and reduce the quality of his passing.

On the weak side, Duncan basically emptied Willis, mainly defending the basket, ready to help defend Zhao Dong at any time.

Zhao Dong fought two. The first time he scored, he hit the board at 30 degrees after the down turn, but the second shot after the up turn was capped by the defending Duncan.

The defensive area formed by the Spurs twin towers is very large, and the defensive height is also very high. Zhao Dong's height shows a disadvantage in the low position.

For the Spurs, Duncan has no main attack, Robinson singles Willis.

The super centers are indeed strong enough. David Robinson is still the most powerful offensive among the four super centers. Although they are all veterans, Willis can't guard against him and was beaten twice in a row.

Two offensive rounds, 42:29, the Spurs pulled back two points, and the old Nelson called a timeout in time.

Zhang Yangyi analyzed: "Zhao Dong's altitude is still a bit disadvantaged in the low position. In the case of Duncan venting Willis, Willis pulled to the weak side is completely empty, but Zhao Dong did not see him. He was caught by David Robinson. Blocked, and the passing opportunity is very short, Duncan's help defense is coming right away, and if you miss it, you miss it."

Su Qun asked, "Director Zhang, how should the Knicks break the double-tower double-teaming against the Flying Dragon? With the Twin Towers guarding the paint zone, Duncan guarding the basket, it is difficult for the Flying Dragon to break in."

Zhang Fangyi laughed and said: "In fact, it is not that Zhao Dong's offense has a problem. He has too many offensive methods, and he has a first-class turnaround jumper. You don't need to go in. It can be played outside, and it can completely avoid Duncan's weak side. Help defense.

Even if he rushed in to beat Duncan, it was not that he hadn't played. He played that way in the finals last time, and Duncan couldn't prevent him. But now it's the regular season, he will definitely not play hard, so the playing time is too much.

Now what the Knicks have to solve is the outside line problem. Zhao Dong’s vision of the weak side is affected. Then the outside line should be allowed to respond to the strong side, the ball is divided, the strong side outside has a chance to shoot, and if there is no chance, make a transition. To the weak side. "

The timeout ended and the Knicks attacked.

Zhao Dong is in the low post on the left, Ginobili has the ball on the upper three-point line, Stackhouse is at the top of the arc, Madman and Willis are on the weak side.

At this time Ginobili passed the ball into the low post, and then immediately cut to the basket.

At the same time, Stackhouse at the top of the arc moved to the left-wing three-point line, and the madman at the right-wing three-point line moved to the top of the arc.

At the same time, Duncan defended to Zhao Dong's side, and Willis, who was vacant, clapped his hands to Zhao Dong for the ball on the right line of the paint zone.

At this time, Zhao Dong passed the ball to Ginobili who cut in.

Duncan immediately defended Ginobili, but the latter immediately took the ball and gave it to the opposite Willis. When Duncan turned and wanted to return to the defense, Willis had already taken the lead in a layup and easily hit a goal.

"Pretty, the Knicks played a triangle offense. When the Spurs doubled Zhao Dong in the low post, through Ginobili's transition, the ball was given to the weak side Willis, which completely adjusted the Spurs' twin tower defense." Zhang Liangyi explained happily.

In the following time, the Knicks repeatedly played the triangle offense.

Phil Jackson is now playing a triangle offense with the Lakers. His tactics are exactly the same as the Knicks’ triangle offense.

It is to give the ball to O'Neal first and let him play alone.

Although Zhao Dong is not a low-level overlord like O'Neal, his offense in the low post is definitely not weaker than that of O'Neal, and this triangle offense is equally handy.

The Spurs had no choice but to double-team Zhao Dong, so the weak side was exposed, either Zhao Dong played by himself, or passed back to the outside, or passed the ball to the weak side Willis through a transition, or back from the weak side. There are many options for cutting outside lines.

Later, the Spurs also tried not to double-team Zhao Dong. After that, Zhao Dong first pulled away, pulled the opposing Duncan or Robinson out, then broke through, smashed in and blasted another tower, causing continuous damage and beating the spurs sorely. Very cool.

After the second quarter, 58:43, the Knicks led by 15 points.

In this era of slow offense, the 15-point difference in halftime is completely the performance of the two grades of teams.

But no one finds it strange, because the Knicks' offensive rhythm is very fast, fast-breaking non-stop, showing super offensive firepower and scoring ability, almost hit 60 points in the half.

Bill Walton made an analysis during the intermission and said: "The Spurs must double-team the Wyvern. So far, no player can defend the Wyvern alone. I mean any position, whether inside or outside.

Just now the Spurs tried a single defense, and the flying dragon immediately pulled out, and then rushed in to fight, so that his impact came out at once, the impact must bring strong lethality, the Spurs continued to foul inside, and the situation is far worse than the double towers double-teaming him. when. "

The horse characteristic head said: "Duncan fouled three times at half time, and David Robinson also fouled three times. The Dragon committed three consecutive fouls in the second half of the second quarter, caused six fouls by the Spurs in a single quarter, and scored six free throws in a single quarter. Opportunity, his lethality must be suppressed, otherwise the Spurs will lose."

"Don't think that without Barkley, the Knicks won't work, it's just a substitute, it's not important." Bill Walton murmured.

"Damn Bill, I will join TNT. I must take his place. I want to be the top card of TNT."

Barkley, who was watching the game in the hospital, exclaimed dissatisfiedly.

Maureen, who accompanied his wife, smiled and said, "Charles, do you really want to listen to Feilong's advice and become a narrator?"

"Of course, I think it's good, it's very rich, what do you think? By the way, my dear, did you make money for Flying Dragon?" Barkley said.

"Don't worry, I have done it right away." Maureen smiled.

Barkley relaxed and jokingly said: "I bet that in a few years, these five million will become fifty million dollars or more."

"I hope." Maureen shrugged.

Barkley was suddenly unhappy and said: "The guy Larry Johnson made tens of millions of dollars with Flying Dragon. With his big contract of 100 million yuan, he is also a billionaire who pays off taxes. I will also become a billionaire in the future, Flying Dragon. I hugged her thigh."

He has a very good relationship with his aunt. Knowing the situation of Larry Johnson, he is envy and jealous!

It is Larry Johnson's big contract, which is more than the money he made in his entire career, let alone the huge profits made by Zhao Dong's investment.

The Spurs are at home and the second half begins.

The Spurs played the low double tower tactics, and the twin towers strengthened the low position, and with absolute height, they forced the Knicks' inside combination.

Zhao Dong and Fordson defended themselves and couldn't stop the offensive firepower of the Twin Towers. Robinson hit a goal on Fordson.

"Compared with Fordson's defense, the former is stronger and the height is similar, so the attack of the Spurs Twin Towers now avoids the stronger Flying Dragon, Robinson exclusively plays Fordson, the first goal is good." Bilvo Suddenly.

"The twin towers win in the low position because they have a high degree. Their passing vision is completely unaffected. The twin towers have excellent wingspans. This affects the Knicks' internal defense quality and cannot prevent the twin towers from playing low positions." Matt Road.

In the third quarter, under the full attack of the Twin Towers, the Spurs played well. After three quarters, 83:68, the score difference was still 15 points.

Although the Spurs attacked, the Knicks' offense was also unstoppable by the Spurs. Not only could it not stop Zhao Dong's low offense, but also the outside fast attack. The Knicks still played fast-paced offense and defense, which made the Spurs very uncomfortable.

The Spurs two towers each received one foul in the first half of the quarter. After four fouls, their defensive quality was significantly affected.

The game entered the fourth quarter, the Spurs twin towers consumed too much physical energy, Robinson's state declined, two consecutive turnovers, and Zhao Dong a cap, was replaced in the third minute, and Duncan was left alone, and the Spurs went well. Gained a defeat.

Zhao Dong played in the eighth minute of the final quarter and was replaced. In 44 minutes of the game, he made 13 of 20 shots and made a terrifying 65% of his field goals. With 13 free throws and 12 of them, he scored 38 points and caught at the same time. With 19 rebounds and 14 assists, he played a luxurious triple-double.

Duncan made 12 of 26 shots in 43 minutes, shooting 46% from the field, slightly lower than normal. In addition to 9 free throws, he scored 29 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks, 3 turnovers and 5 fouls.

David Robinson blasted Willis and scored 22 points and 11 rebounds in this game, not inferior to the young and strong Duncan.

The three Knicks guards played an average of 36 minutes, which did not exceed their rotation time. The remaining 36 minutes were shared by marginal players like John Wallace.

On the TNT live broadcast booth, after the game, Bill Walton praised Zhao Dong's performance. He said: "Feilong's efficient and versatile performance is the biggest guarantee for this victory. The Spurs and the Twin Towers teamed up to score 51 points and 20 rebounds. It can't stop the flying dragon from taking a victory from here."

Matt added: "Fordson did an extraordinary performance this game, grabbing 17 rebounds, sending two blocks, the ability to guard the basket is also good, and only four fouls at the same time, has begun to show the demeanor of rebounds. He and the dragon partner. Inside, one offense and one defense, very balanced."

Bill Walton continued: "Although there is currently one missing major rotation player, the Knicks have not lost much of their strength. As long as they are properly strengthened, the Knicks are still the most powerful champion defending team, ESPN The changes made to the championship ranking list seem to be the same as what Feilong said. It is indeed not very professional."

The horse characteristic head said: "So, Barkley is not important to the Knicks, ESPN also needs to be more professional."

"These two TNT bastards, they would just mock ESPN, why did they bring me on?" Barkley kept complaining from the hospital bed.

As the best in this field, Zhao Dong accepted an interview on the spot.

"Flying Dragon, you didn't have much offense in this game, but you still defeated the powerful Spurs. This is different from your past. In the past, when you assisted more, the game would be more difficult, but today you sent 14 assists. , But won the Spurs, why?"

The New York Sports reporter asked.

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "Because the lineup is different, the tactics are different. Last season, our perimeter was not so strong, there were not so many perimeter fast breaks, the offensive and defensive rhythm was not so fast, mainly based on positional warfare.

Then in the positional battle, my efficiency will be higher, so it shows that the game will be more difficult when I have more assists.

But this season is different. We play faster, have stronger outside offensive ability, faster speed, and have a lot of fast breaks, which makes us more efficient, so what you see, mine There were a lot of assists, but the team also won, because most of my assists were passes in fast breaks. "

"Feilong, will the team always play this kind of high-paced, fast offensive and defensive small ball tactics?" asked the team reporter Thomas.

"It depends on the situation, mainly depends on our lineup, I can't answer you more, because this is the question of coach Nelson, he is responsible for formulating the tactics, I am responsible for the implementation of tactics." Zhao Dong smiled.

"Flying dragon, what do you think of the Spurs?" a local reporter asked.

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "The Spurs must reinforce the outside line. The third position is very important. The small forward can connect inside and outside, and can quickly help defend the inside line. The Spurs lack this position. Of course, our Knicks are the same now."

An hour later, the Knicks and Spurs conferences were held one after another.

At the Spurs press conference, even at home, there were only a few dozen reporters, including half of the cameramen and assistants, which was very deserted.

"Coach Popovich, once again lost to the Knicks, do you have anything to say about your team's lineup? Do we have any hope of winning this season?"

A reporter from the local sports newspaper asked.

"It's just a regular season. You don't need to look too much. We still have a very eager pursuit of the championship." Popovich said.

"In this game, we double-teamed the Flying Dragon in the low post, but the Flying Dragon had a 30+ junior match. Are we really sure to beat the Knicks?"

The reporter was a little suspicious and authentic.

Popovich solemnly said: "I said, this is just a regular season, I can't say more, once we play against the Knicks again in the finals, I will let you see what you want to see."

"Is it an off-ball double team tactic? You didn't use this defensive tactic in this game, do you have reservations?"

The reporter asked.

Popovich said toughly: "I have nothing to say about this."

"Tim, what do you want to say about the defeat tonight?" another reporter asked.

"We also need to work harder, including management." Duncan said.

"You mean the team needs reinforcement?" the reporter asked.

Popovich looked at Duncan, with some worries in his heart, how could he have the money to reinforce it? The boss will only take money from the team, it is impossible to post money.

Duncan said at this time: "The Lakers, the Knicks, and the digital team are very strong. With our current lineup, I think it will be difficult. Our lineup has obvious weaknesses.

In this game, the Knicks' offensive and defensive rhythm is too fast, our outside line can not keep up, this is the key reason for the loss of the game, I hope the management can see this. "

In the past two years, he and his agent team have discussed related issues countless times. Regarding the Spurs' stingy team building, his agent team has very big opinions, which naturally affects him.

At the same time, he has little commercial value in this small city, and even though the Spurs reached the finals last season, they did not get much attention. His agent team has been persuading him to leave and go to a bigger city.

To be honest, he is really disappointed with the team.

He came in from the draft, and apart from him, the team hasn't traded a significant player in the past two seasons. They are all role players. Such construction and investment are simply too stingy.

Moreover, his shots in the team have been restricted. Although he does not have much opinion, there will be some discomforts.

Today he shot a lot, but that was a special situation. The Knicks didn't double-team him. There was no good chance on the outside. He could only play more. It wasn't that he had so many shots.

Duncan's words at the press conference aroused media speculation.

"Tim Duncan bombards management!"

"Duncan deliberately left the Spurs!"

The next morning, various media conjectures about the Spurs and Duncan came out, and there was a lot of trouble.

Duncan is a little helpless, usually he wants to pay attention to it, but now there are a lot of media to interview him.

After winning the Spurs, the Knicks rushed to Houston overnight, and they will fight back to back against the mosaic the next day.

At noon that day, Alan Houston and Da Meng invited Zhao Dong for lunch.

Alan Houston is the main shooting guard who can’t play in Houston. After the big dream, he had the opportunity to become Houston’s head star, but this year the team picked up Francis, that’s not good. Maybe after the big dream retires, he Have to continue to be the second child.

Zhao Dong talked about the investment issue. Dameng’s 8 million US dollars has been handed over to him. Alan Houston’s original investment funds in the storm have been redeemed~www.readwn.com~ Now he hopes to follow him in investing again, he wants to say Here is the situation.

The investment plan he prepared is to invest all the funds of these NBA stars in potential stocks in the US stock market, such as Apple.

After talking about investment, he and Dameng talked about Dayao's performance.

The first month is almost over. Dayao’s performance is very stable, averaging 22+9.5 per game. This is an All-Star performance. Some media have given him the title of debut or peak, and some media believe that it is still needed. Continuous performance.

Da Meng smiled proudly: "Yao's pace has helped him a lot. He is so tall but very flexible. This allows him to be in the low position without having to squeeze hard with those muscle sticks. In addition to his height, he is in the low position. It is a big killer on the offensive end, as long as he is given one or two more seasons, he will definitely reach a higher height."

Zhao Dong laughed, is Dameng a reminder of his credit?

In his previous life, Dayao had the technique of Shanghai dance step. He has very good coordination, flexibility and balance. In this life, he has the training of big dreams. The low pace movement is indeed much better than the previous life.
