Compared to Armstrong's impressive record, Ito's resume can only be described as plain as water. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the year since graduating from college, Raita Ito has been high and low, and he has been living a miserable life with an allowance from the Japanese Basketball Association. For a year, he had not played an official match, and Ito's strength had dropped dramatically, and the gap between him and his rival Kota Mimori was getting wider and wider.

In the face of the powerful Armstrong, Ito Reita could only be beaten in humiliation.

Point guard Nishida Lock, who scored 2 points and 3 assists in the first two quarters.

Nishida is 182 cm tall and weighs 76 kilograms, while John Paxson, who is opposite him, is 188 centimeters tall and weighs 84 kilograms. Ay! The gap is not only at the technical level, but also in physical fitness.

In the Chicago Bulls, John Paxson is the ruthless man who overtakes B.J. Armstrong and occupies the starting point guard.

At this time, the Bulls had a luxurious lineup, and no team could compare with it. The main lineup is peak shooting guard Michael Jordan, small forward Scottie Pippen, power forward Horris Grant, center Bill Carter White, and point guard John Paxson.

John Paxson's ability to be one of the starting five is a great indication of his quality.

John Paxson is a good runner, shooting from the open and shooting from three-point range.

In the first two quarters of the game, John Paxson brought out his own characteristics to the fullest.

As a defensive player on the opposite line, Nishida Suo witnessed John Paxson, the NBA star's running skills, and couldn't help but be amazed.

In Japan, or in Asian countries, the role of off-ball movement has not yet been fully utilized. But in the NBA, if you're not a basketball superstar, the core of the team, you can't be too bad off the ball.

Running without the ball is a movement that is used to get rid of a defender or create space for an attack when not holding the ball.

In basketball, if the offensive players just stand there and do not move, the team will not be able to form basic tactics, and the role of the point guard is limited to controlling the rhythm of the overall situation of the game.

In basketball games in Asia, because of the slow pace of the game and the lack of confrontation in the game, many players will not or even do not want to run without the ball.

Because they feel that running is a waste of energy, they just stand still without the ball, wait for their teammates to pass the ball, or watch their teammates attack, and they are not involved.

In a low-level basketball environment, running off the ball is really not that important.

However, once you face an NBA powerhouse like the Chicago Bulls, you have to run without the ball, otherwise you can't break their defensive system.

Correct and efficient off-ball movement can not only create easy scoring opportunities for yourself or your teammates, but also make the whole team's attack more fluid and efficient.

Although John Paxson does not have the off-ball running ability of Reggie Miller, his running skills alone have amazed the Japanese men's basketball team's Nishida Suo.

On the Bulls' side, the lineup used in the first two quarters of the game was as follows:

Center: No. 25 Bill Cartwright, 216 cm tall, 111 kg in weight;

Power forward: No. 42 Scott Williams, 208 cm tall and 118 kg in weight;

Small forward: No. 7 Tony Kukoc, 211 cm tall and 107 kg in weight;

Shooting guard: No. 10 B.J. Armstrong, 188 cm tall and 79 kg in weight;

Point guard: No. 5 John Paxson, 188 cm tall and 84 kg in weight.

In the first two quarters of the game, the Bulls scored a total of 46 points, which overwhelmed the Japanese men's basketball team.

Among them, center Bill Cartwright got 10 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists in the all-around data; power forward Scott Williams had 4 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist; Small forward Tony Kukoc served as the team's main attacker, with 24 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists; Shooting guard B.J. Armstrong had six points, two rebounds and three assists, and point guard John Paxson had two points, one rebound and six assists.

Even without Horace Grant, Scottie Pippen, and Michael Jordan, the Bulls' triangular offensive system would not work, but the blocking and pick-and-roll coordination of offensive and defensive rotation has been integrated into the soul of the players, so there will be a situation where all five Bulls players have scores, rebounds, and assists.

......

Maybe it is to see how Long Zheng can perform against the teams in the middle and lower reaches of the NBA, maybe it is to make the home team Japanese men's basketball team lose less ugly, maybe it is to boost the lifeless atmosphere of the scene, maybe it is to close the gap between the strength of the two teams and make the game more intense, maybe the score is too big and thinks that the Japanese men's basketball team has no hope of catching up with the score, or maybe it is just to train the regular rotation players of the three teams of Scott Williams, Tony Kukoc, and B.J. Armstrong......

In short, when the second quarter of the game ended and the Japanese men's basketball team replaced Ryumasa, Chicago Bulls head coach Phil Jackson did not replace the team's "trident" -- big forward Horace Grant, small forward Scottie Pippen, and scoring guard Michael Jordan, but still used the team's previous lineup.

After substitutions, after the start of the third quarter of the game, the on-court lineup of the Japanese men's basketball team has changed to a certain extent.

Center: No. 11 Taiya Nishino, height 199 cm, weight 88 kg;

Power forward: No. 14 Tomimatsu, 193 cm tall, 86 kg in weight;

Small forward: No. 8 Raita Ito, 191 cm tall and 78 kg in weight;

Scoring guard: No. 10 Long Zheng, 199 cm tall and 95 kg in weight;

Point guard: No. 6 Kota Mimori, 196 cm tall and 90 kg in weight.

No. 9 Nishida Lock was replaced by head coach Yusaku Ozawa, and he was replaced as a point guard by Kota Mimori, who had a tacit understanding with Ryumasa, and Kota Mimori's next task was very clear, which was to provide Ryumasa with "cannonballs" and let Ryumasa fully display his offensive ability.

Compared to the scoring guard that Kota Mimori is good at, the point guard is the one who has the most opportunities to get the ball on the court.

As a qualified point guard, Kota Mimori has to bring the basketball safely from the backcourt to the frontcourt and pass the ball to other teammates to have a chance for other players to score. (To be continued.) )
