072 Three hundred catties of pork
Recently, when Jerry Sloan faces strong opponents, he likes to start large-scale personnel rotations in the second quarter, so Wang Dazhi must make good use of the remaining four minutes of the first quarter.
Wang Dazhi stood opposite Shark O'Neal, waiting for Karl Malone's free throw.
After having close contact with Karl Malone, Wang Dazhi found this man even more terrifying.
When he raised his hand to shoot a free throw, his bulging deltoid muscles were almost as big as a basketball. The most incredible thing is that with such a thick arm and such a strong torso, Karl Malone's shot was still extremely smooth!
After making two free throws, Wang Dazhi sent a baseline kick and handed the ball to Nick Van Exel.
With Greg Ostertag out, Antoine Kyle must become the key target for the Los Angeles Lakers.
After the Lakers passed the ball several times from the outside, they lobbed the ball to Shaquille O'Neal who was asking for the ball in the low post.
Antoine Kyle, who is 2.06 meters tall, compared to Greg Ostertag, is like the gap between QQ and Q7. It is a rare opportunity to have a soft persimmon. How can Shaquille O'Neal give up so easily?
A bulldozer hit the back and the big top turned around, Antoine Kyle disappeared, and the big shark rushed up and was about to dunk!
Even the celebration after scoring the goal was ready, but Karl Malone rushed over and grabbed Shaquille O'Neal's shoulder, and the Shaquille O'Neal was knocked to the ground even while dribbling the ball!
Shaquille O'Neal covered his head and gasped for air. It seemed that he fell hard this time. Before Gary Vitti ran over, Shaquille O'Neal had already gotten up. He signaled that there was nothing wrong with him.
The perpetrator, Karl Malone, stood aside and looked on coldly, as if he had nothing to do with him.
It was not once or twice that Shaquille O'Neal suffered from such a vicious crime. He walked to the free throw line calmly. The reason why he kept suppressing the anger in his heart was because Shaquille O'Neal just wanted to have a good shot when he took the free throw.
Feel.
After calming down, he felt that his breathing was smooth and his body was relaxed.
After receiving the referee's ground pass, Shaquille O'Neal was full of confidence and threw a free throw like a shot put. It was short!
Shaq grinned and cursed under his breath. With a 50% shooting rate, he should have scored the next goal.
He adjusted his posture again for the second free throw and it was shorter!
After missing two free throws, the Los Angeles Lakers still trailed by eight points, 12-20.
Wang Dazhi clung to Karl Malone every step of the way, and Karl Malone didn't mock Wang Dazhi's status as an Asian high school student like other powerful power forwards.
For this quiet and strong monster, Wang Dazhi felt even more uneasy.
No matter what happened in his heart, Wang Dazhi never gave up in his actions!
During the retreat, Wang Dazhi kept resisting, but he felt that every move he made was like hitting a sandbag that could not be shaken at all.
Karl Malone has an unusually strong body, but he is not like Sean Kemp, a person with a simple mind and well-developed limbs. Karl Malone gives people the impression of a cunning person with a deep scheming mind.
Karl Malone was indifferent to Wang Dazhi's actions and he didn't want to make any response at all.
It wasn't until his partner John Stockton slowed down while dribbling the ball that he made the next move. Karl Malone opened his right arm slightly, and Wang Dazhi, who was close to him, was pushed away by half a meter.
Karl Malone runs the pick-and-roll from the low post!
Nick Van Exel was guarding John Stockton while looking back to pay attention to Karl Malone's movements.
Although the Utah duo have never won a championship, many people believe that they are one of the most successful duos in history. The core factor of their success is their ever-changing pick-and-roll tactics!
Karl Malone likes to use his brain when playing, but he can also knock down ten points at once. Just when Nick Van Exel was wondering what kind of fake move Karl Malone would make, a solid door panel blocked Nick.
Van Exel is nailed!
If John Stockton is unmarked, he can shoot from any blind angle within half court. Of course Wang Dazhi cannot allow this to happen!
But facing a defender as tall as John Stockton, Wang Dazhi is in a dilemma when it comes to defending. The small man's ability to play small and big is the key to the power of the pick-and-roll, and John Stockton's ability to play small and big is enough for everyone.
Big guy has a headache!
Just when Wang Dazhi was still thinking about how to defend the small one, John Stockton suddenly collected the ball, took one step across and was about to hit the ball into the inside line!
At this time, Karl Malone had already turned around and caught the "petite" Nick Van Exel behind him. Wang Dazhi's brain and body recognized that John Stockton was about to pass the ball from his side.
Entering the inside line, he stretched out his long legs to prepare for Fan Zhiyi to tackle and intercept!
Wang Dazhi was very confident in his leg length, but his almost split action did not stop the ball at all, because John Stockton's hand raise was just a fake action!
Wang Dazhi's side tackle made him lose his air defense ability. John Stockton raised his right hand and flicked his wrist, and the ball flew from Wang Dazhi's head to the basket!
Karl Malone took off on one foot and dunked with both hands in an alley-oop!
Shaquille O'Neal, who was moved out of the three-second zone by Antoine Kyle, could only watch the ball and sigh!
In the NBA league where there is a three-second defensive violation, such a pick-and-roll tactic is really hard to guard against!
In fact, using the three-second defense rule as an example has advantages and disadvantages for players. NBA rules will allow offensive players to gain more attacking space, so that there will be more breakthroughs, air cuts, alley-oops, and more dunks.
It will also look more exciting.
The price of all this is that after the development of world basketball, the American Dream Team gradually lost its dominance over the world basketball world.
In the 2019 World Cup, there was a new MVP who was severely restricted by the defensive three-second rule. Giannis Antetokounmpo was unmatched in the NBA's basket offense.
However, in the Basketball World Cup, he was often defended by his opponents' little-known insiders. This MVP in the NBA, who was defeated by thousands of people, ended up averaging the same basic data per game as Poland's Tieqi.
If there were no three-second defensive violations in the NBA, then Shaquille O'Neal might be the real first player in history. No need to explain further, even if a three-hundred-pound piece of pork is placed under the basket and it doesn't move, the shooting percentage of the offensive players will be greatly affected.
Influence.
