Chapter Ninety-Three: New Problems, Defensive Restrictions (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
"How? It doesn't matter, right? ”
On the court in the fourth quarter, Yi Jianlian was bending down to sort out his shoelaces, and Michael Reed next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder, his tone a little worried.
Yi Jianlian's style of play today is very different from the past, all kinds of tough impact baskets, and dunks have been dunked several times, it is obvious that this guy is playing with a breath of fire today.
I have to say that such Yi Jianlian is more threatening on the offensive end.
It's just that Yi Jianlian's gasping for air at the end of the third quarter of the game also shows that his physical strength is much more exerted than before.
"Don't worry! I'm fine! ”
Yi Jianlian turned his head and replied, but as soon as he lowered his head again, he heard Xiao K's voice coming: "Yi, you rest off the court first, and don't rush to play in the fourth quarter!" ”
"Why?" Yi Jianlian almost reflexively, quickly stood up, walked to Xiao K, lowered his head and said, "Coach Larry, I can still play!" ”
"Can you beat you up, it doesn't matter, Abel says it!"
Abel is the coach with the Bucks and Yi Jianlian's sparring partner when he usually practices, and he may know more about Yi Jianlian's physical condition than Yi Jianlian himself.
So Yi Jianlian stopped talking and sat back silently.
Is he tired?
To tell you the truth, he must be tired, and if he goes up in his current state, I'm afraid he won't be able to finish the fourth quarter.
This is a new problem!
As his possession of the ball in the offensive end has increased significantly, his physical strength has increased per game, and his physical deficiencies have gradually become apparent.
Especially in this game, Yi Jianlian's style of play was too tough, resulting in greater physical consumption than in the past.
But the problem is that the improvement of physical fitness is not a matter of time and a half, there must be a gradual process, fortunately, the problem of Yi Jianlian's physical fitness is not too prominent. It's just that Little K needs to spend some brains in the rotation arrangement.
***
At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, the Bucks, who did not have Yi Jianlian, were a little passive from the beginning and missed two consecutive attacks.
With Bosh's pick-and-roll hit, the four-point margin was erased.
It was less than 2 minutes before the fourth quarter.
"Yi, I'll give you a task!" Xiao K motioned to the assistant coach to Yi Jianlian and gave the task, "Let Chris Bosh stop for a while!" ”
"Okay, no problem!" As soon as Yi Jianlian heard this task, he knew that he was about to play, so he took off his coat and moved his arms without saying a word, "Chris will be handed over to me!" ”
Defense is nothing new to him, during the previous period of training on the defensive end, his task was basically to lock up the opponent's interior arrow, and he also found the most suitable defensive method for him in the loss of each game, and in the two weeks when he won the best of the week, his performance on the defensive end can be described as extremely bright, and almost all the interior players who played against him performed below the usual level.
If he doesn't return to the offensive end, Yi Jianlian believes that he can also play a good game on the defensive end.
Now that Xiao K has brought him back to the defensive end, he has no complaints, the head coach's words still have to be listened to, gold will shine wherever it goes!
Mainly the last sentence.
***
Chris's ability on the offensive end left Xiao K speechless, and the two teams in the late half of the third quarter also made him know in his heart that offense alone would definitely not be able to suppress the Raptors.
Especially now that the Raptors have gained momentum, at this time, even if Yi Jianlian returns to the court to participate in the offense, it is impossible to suppress the Raptors' offense.
The most important thing is to make Chris Bosh dumb!
At this juncture, Xiao K's mind inexplicably remembered the man who gave O'Neill a big hat, yes it's Nate Robinson, phew, no, it's Huaxia Yi!
During the period when Yi Jianlian was learning to defend, he and Bogut formed an inside double gate to get a lot of strong interior combinations, such as O'Neal and Haslem who had also suffered losses at the hands of the two of them before.
Since you can't suppress the Raptors, try to pout your arrows? The more I thought about it, the more feasible it became, so Xiao K asked the assistant coach to notify Yi Jianlian and was ready to return to the court and guard Chris Bosh!
***
Yi Jianlian put on a battle, and when the camera was given to him, there was a slight boo in the arena of the Air Canada Center!
It's not uncommon for a player to be booed when he plays, but those are all players who have a grudge against this team, and most of them are stars, and it's really rare for a rookie like Yi Jianlian to be booed on the court.
It can also be seen from this that Toronto fans hate Yi Jianlian to such an extent!
Yi Jianlian unexpectedly felt that this boo was very pleasant.
Wait for me to shut you up again!
Uh, the black-bellied Yi Jianlian is being born~
The game restarted, Bosh didn't react at first, but he soon felt a little uncomfortable, no, not a little, it was getting more and more uncomfortable!
Why did this guy named Yi Jianlian follow me as soon as he came up, like a dog skin plaster, he kept pestering me, and he couldn't shake it off.
Bosh was very uncomfortable by Yi Jianlian's close defense, he couldn't go to the high or low post at all, and as soon as he passed, Yi Jianlian immediately made physical contact with him.
Although Bosh has a tough style of play, he does not like physical contact, which is well known in the league, and Yi Jianlian took advantage of this and desperately sought physical contact.
In desperation, Bosh could only stay away from the basket to catch the ball, but this time, Bosh directly gave up the entire area under the basket, and Yi Jianlian was like a Tibetan mastiff in the nursing home, with a fierce face, as if to say that if you dare to come in, I will bite you to death!
And Chris Bosh took a step back, he went further, and when he wanted to stand back again, he was sorry to say that he couldn't give it to you anymore!
Chris Bosh was really scared into a cute dragon, and the position of receiving the ball was getting farther and farther away from the basket, and he was forced to the position where he stepped on the three-point line to avoid it, so he thought about resisting, but he found that it seemed to be more difficult!
Mason, like a ghost, doesn't know when he will rush out of which position, come at him twice, it is best to force the ball, and if he can't force the ball, he has to disrupt his offensive rhythm, and several times Bosh was just about to start, and he was forced to stop like this.
What's even more infuriating is that this guy just scratches and walks away, without even looking back, and when he first found the player Mason guarding, the latter was already back in defensible range, and he couldn't find a chance at all.
Hey, Bosh!
Of course, Chris Bosh was already one of the best in the league at the power forward position back then, and it was impossible to completely lock him up with such a defensive target, and with the help of his teammates, Bosh could still get rid of Yi Jianlian to score.
But his efficiency did drop, and as his efficiency dropped, the offense of the entire Raptors team became less ferocious.
Although the Bucks are missing Yi Jianlian to do the axis on the inside, their outside duo Michael Reed and Mo Williams are absolutely crushing Calderon and Delfino, and the Bucks have taken back the initiative in the game.
In the 04 Finals, the Pistons played against the Spurs, and the two teams were the ultimate defensive teams in the East and West at that time, and that round of the Finals finally set the lowest ratings for the NBA Finals in recent years, and was called the "ugly Finals" by many netizens.
Defense can make the game ugly, and that was proven in the Finals at the time, as well as in today's game between the Raptors and the Bucks.
After the two teams that fought extremely fiercely in the first three quarters entered the fourth quarter, because of the increase in defensive strength, the whole scene fell into anxiety, especially the Raptors because Chris Bosh was restricted by Yi Jianlian and Mason, and the whole team was drained and frequently hit iron.
In the end, the Bucks won, there were not so many Mars hitting the earth, and there was no drama where Yi Jianlian singled out Chris Bosh and narrowly won by one goal.
It was the Bucks who restricted Chris Bosh all the way according to the instructions of Little K, and led by a slight margin all the way to the end.
89-85, the Bucks walked away from Toronto.
