Chapter 1052 Old Thief Sima: 'Calm down, the advantage is mine!'
Coach Terry also saw the opponent's intention at this time. The Spurs' defensive focus was on Wang Zelin and Lillard. As long as they were restricted, the Blazers' offensive efficiency would be greatly reduced.
.
"In the second quarter, Wang, you play more pick-and-rolls with Jokic. After containing the Spurs' defensive focus, you pass more to other teammates. If this continues, I won't believe this evil anymore. They still dare to double-team you crazily.
.As long as the opponent switches to single defense, then you will crush them!"
Coach Terry was yelling with a tactical board. He also didn't want to lose in front of the team's home fans and embarrass themselves.
Wang Zelin smiled, and Coach Terry was on point. He first used his offensive traction to absorb most of the Spurs' defensive resources. As a result, the Spurs' plan would come to nothing.
Of course, the premise is that teammates have to shoot those damn open shots.
In the first quarter, Wang Zelin felt a little uncomfortable, not because of how strong Love and Anderson were defensively, but because they could always lead Wang Zelin into defensive traps time and time again.
But if he can break through the Spurs' iron defense and only play Love, Wang Zelin will still be quite confident.
"Brothers, be prepared. The real battle has just begun. As soon as you receive an opening, you will take action decisively."
Before taking the field, Wang Zelin summoned his teammates to his side for final mobilization.
Then Wang Zelin took a deep breath and stepped into the arena. The key to the success of the Blazers' strategy lies in Wang Zelin.
After the start of the second quarter, both sides returned to their main lineups. The Spurs were unwilling to give up their advantage anyway, and the Trail Blazers naturally did not want to be opened up like this.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Spurs attacked first.
Anderson and Parker exchanged hands and blocked Lillard. Jokic slowed down a beat and failed to block. So Wang Zelin had to follow up and change defense, leaving Anderson to Lillard.
Parker did not forget the result of his challenge to Wang Zelin at the beginning, and immediately gave the ball back to Anderson. Anderson blocked Lillard with his back. This was a rare mismatched singles opportunity.
Anderson advanced with his back while observing the situation on the court. At this time, Leonard and Butler were restrained by their matchups and had no chance of coming back.
So Anderson took two more steps and boldly chose to turn over and shoot. Anderson, who was 2.06 meters tall, faced Lillard who was 1.91 meters tall. It was not too easy!
Anderson made a jump shot. Although Lillard tried his best to block it, due to the height difference, he couldn't touch the basketball at all. Lillard, let alone blocking Anderson, couldn't even do the most basic interference.
The corners of Anderson's mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were looking toward the basket with anticipation, waiting for the beautiful sound when the basketball hit the net.
Not long after he flew out from playing basketball, Anderson's pupils shrank instantly.
Just because he found an uninvited guest, he jumped into the air at an incredible speed like a rocket taking off.
Why is Wang Zelin here? He clearly observed the position of the Trail Blazers before shooting, and the latter was obviously close to Parker.
Before Anderson could figure out what was going on, Wang Lin slapped the ball hard through Lillard in the air like a volleyball smash!
"Snapped!"
Wang Zelin's palm slapped the basketball with a loud noise, and then flew past Anderson's scalp.
Anderson felt his scalp numb for a moment, and even forgot to turn around and pursue him.
It wasn't until Wang Zelin flew past him after blocking the shot that Anderson remembered what he should do next.
He was so stunned by Wang Zelin that he forgot to return to defense.
"Incredible defense speed. Before Anderson shot, Wang Zelin was still guarding Parker, but after Anderson made the shot, Wang Zelin was able to rush back instantly. It must be said that Wang Zelin completely used his personal ability to save the Blazers.
The Trail Blazers' defense...The Trail Blazers' defensive counterattack! Let's see what they will do this time." Mark Jackson spoke quickly because the situation on the court changed faster.
The basketball that was missed by Wang Zelin for a three-pointer fell into the hands of Connett Lee. Connett Lee held the ball for a fast break, but Danny Green immediately got up and tried to block Connett Lee's acceleration.
At this moment, Wang Zelin, who had just completed his blood cap, rushed out from Danny Green. Connet Lee's eyes suddenly lit up and he put the ball into Wang Zelin's hands.
Fortunately, Leonard returned to defense outside the three-point line at this time. He opened his arms and waited for Wang Zelin, hoping to stifle the Blazers' offense here.
Seeing this, Sima Weihe breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Leonard is in place in advance, the Blazers want to play a fast break? Don't even think about it!
However, facing Leonard with his long arms spread out, Wang Zelin had no intention of slowing down. Leonard licked his lips and was already prepared to be collided by Wang Zelin.
At this moment, no one knows what kind of fear Leonard has overcome in his heart. After all, Wang Zelin's size and height are obviously several times bigger than him. Now it is like a tank is hitting him, but he can't move even half a step.
.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Zelin had already reached Leonard. The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, and Leonard could even see the pores on Wang Zelin's face clearly.
But the next second, Wang Zelin strangely passed by Leonard. There was no collision and no one fell over. At the moment when the two sides were about to collide, Wang Zelin forcibly turned the steering wheel to the left and successfully changed direction!
Nani?!
Leonard's conditioned reflex made him turn around and chase after him, but he saw Wang Zelin was about to hit the basket.
Just now he completed a difficult change of direction without slowing down in an extremely small space. This scene reminded many people of the rose in the east.
The difference is that what appears in front of everyone is a center version of Derrick Rose with increased volume but no increase in price!
"Wang Zelin passed Leonard, a beautiful and quick change of direction. Leonard must have been extremely surprised at this time, because even Kevin Durant would have difficulty doing such an amazing move! This is the real
A defensive style of play in a meaningful sense, magical witchcraft from the East, it’s incredible!”
Mark Jackson spoke faster and faster, but he found that his speaking speed could not keep up with Wang Zelin's attack speed.
"boom!"
With a loud bang under the basket, Wang Zelin immediately suppressed the Spurs' arrogance with a bloody block and a violent dunk as soon as he returned in the second quarter.
At this moment, everyone clearly saw what it means to be a superstar? What it means to be the best in the league? What it means to be a high-quality leader who can help the building to fall.
This is what you should do as a team leader!
After scoring the goal, Wang Zelin ignored Leonard behind him, but turned his head to one side and pointed at Simavici on the Spurs bench. Simavici was so angry that the corner of his mouth twitched.
It was just a defensive counterattack. Simawicz believed that as long as the Trail Blazers did not break the Spurs' strategy from a tactical level, they would firmly control the rhythm of the court.
Facing the Spurs bench players who were starting to get impatient, the old thief Sima vowed: "Calm down, it's me again!"
"Best regards, coach!"
Seeing that the old commander was so confident, the disciples around him stopped their discussion.
