Chapter 313: It's all O'Neill's work

Fans underestimate O'Neal's defensive level, firstly, because he is often talked about how to defend him, secondly, because he has never won the honor of the first defensive team, and thirdly, he lacks wonderful defensive highlights, in other words, he does not have many classic blocks and confrontation shots like Rodman and Mourning.

However, O'Neal's single defensive strength is terrifying. In the 95 finals, Big Dream averaged 32 points per game, if you hadn't watched the video at the time, you would definitely think that Big Dream had blown up O'Neal. But in fact, when O'Neal personally defended Big Dream, Big Dream's hit rate was only a pitiful 36%, and the reason why Big Dream broke out was entirely because Magic and others couldn't prevent Big Dream.

You must know that Big Dream has always been known for its magical steps, and O'Neill's ability to successfully restrain Big Dream with his bulky body is beyond imagination.

Ade and Gasol, the offensive level is naturally not up to the big dream, but Zhang Feng is not O'Neal, and it is more difficult than O'Neal to limit the two through a few suggestions.

But there is no problem in giving it a try, O'Neill left the live broadcast room after thinking it through, took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Feng.

"We're playing, what's the matter with you?" Zhang Feng was very surprised.

"I'm going to give you a few pieces of advice for defending Ade and Gasol," O'Neill didn't politely.

At this time, Zhang Feng was depressed, O'Neill's call could be described as a send-off, and he hurriedly asked O'Neill to speak quickly.

"First of all, you have to observe the characteristics of these two people who receive the ball, hold the ball, play the ball, and stand up" O'Neill is not in a hurry or slow.

"Well, it makes sense, but where do I have so much time ......"

"If it doesn't work, keep them out of the basket"

"Well, I thought of this, is there any other way?"

"The second is to defend around the front, no matter how strong you are if you can't catch the ball, it's useless"

"I also thought of this......

"Then I'm going to teach you a trick at the end," O'Neill smiled.

O'Neal's exclusive defensive secret, these words alone seem a little funny, but Zhang Feng held back a smile.

"Tell me, there's a 10-minute timeout to go."

"That's to resist the ball carrier, so that he can't use force, once he can't use force, his technical movements will be deformed, so that he can prevent it, how about it, my method is simple, right?"

Zhang Feng was stunned, O'Neal's secret is certainly feasible, but just like Jordan told the rookie: "You dunk when you get one person under the basket, you pull the rod for two people, and then pull the rod around three people, and three people defend it, it's very simple."

The same technical moves, another person may not be able to do it, Zhang Feng does not have the strength of O'Neill, take the head to top Ade and Gasol?

"Your secret, I want to think about it seriously......" Zhang Feng planned to perfunctory, after all, O'Neill was kind.

"What are you afraid of, Barria can withstand James, didn't you resist kawaii in the first quarter?" O'Neill knew that Zhang Feng was worried about not having enough strength.

"Don't be kidding, James claims to be able to play 5 positions, and he personally said that his strength can't compare to Howard" Zhang Feng still felt that it was not feasible.

"Aren't you stupid, and you don't need to be topped up all the time, can't you just combine the methods I just said? Kenny Kua, you have a lot of understanding."

Going around the front, away from the basket, and hard top, these three methods seem to be really feasible to use, "Okay, I'll try it later".

As soon as Zhang Feng hung up the phone, David asked, "What defensive suggestions does O'Neill have?"

"It's nothing, it's the one we usually use", Zhang Feng said this in order not to refute David's face, but in fact, he knew that when a person was panicked, someone outside the bureau could give advice, even if it was a simple method, it could play a big role.

For example, when you go out in the morning and can't find the key in a hurry, once someone tells you where it is, the problem is solved immediately, of course it is not difficult to find the key, but time is precious, O'Neal gave advice at halftime, and the king can reduce the number of mistakes.

Zhang Feng repeated O'Neill's words in a different way, and David also felt that it was feasible, so he just waited for the next stage to verify.

After the start of the third quarter of the game, Zhang Feng went straight to the basket with the ball, of course the defense had to do his best, but if he could rely on the offense to fight the Spurs' two interior fouls, it would also help the defense a lot.

However, both Ade and Gasol seemed to realize this, and after Zhang Feng burst into the inside, they were both stunned and did not reach out to block, and Zhang Feng scored an easy layup.

Popovich off the field seemed to be smiling, as if to say: "I have seen a lot of this routine".

Turning back to the Spurs attack, it was still Ade who took the ball. Willy followed the arrangement at halftime and withstood with all his strength.

Even with all his strength, Ade still easily squeezed away, and Zhang Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help defend when he saw that the situation was not good. In desperation, Ade wanted to pass the ball to Gasol. But Costa had already tactically rounded O'Neal and the ball eventually returned to Parker.

Maybe it was because the first half was played too smoothly, Parker was a little flustered, he didn't look for another opportunity to pass to the inside, but bent down and dribbled continuously to single Zhang Feng.

"NO, NO, NO" Popovich shouted anxiously, he knew that Parker could fight Zhang Feng in his prime, but now if he wants to go head-to-head, it must be beyond his strength.

Before the words fell, Parker was stealed, and the whole team of Kings followed Zhang Feng's footsteps to launch a fast attack, and under the chaotic battle, Zhang Feng passed Bogdan and hit a 3-pointer.

Parker was angry, the first attempt at singles failed, Popovich actually roared, he turned his head to launch a fast attack, and it took only 2 seconds for the ball to fly into Gasol's hands. At this time, Willy was still in the middle line, and Zhang Feng stubbornly pasted it.

After playing so many NBA-level games, Zhang Feng has not felt the power of the center, but fortunately, Gasol's peak has passed, and he was stunned.

A center was successfully defended by a point guard, even if Gasol had a good temper, he couldn't help but play hard, he was in a hurry, the elbow movement was not standardized, and the referee seized the opportunity to blow the whistle.

In the next few rounds, the Kings repeated their old tricks, the Spurs' interior scoring rate dropped rapidly, and the Kings took the opportunity to overtake the score, and Popovich called a timeout.

After the timeout, the Spurs' offensive position spread out more, leaving more space for the interior, but Costa, Willy, and Papa, the three Kings have defensive experience inside, and the offensive kills of Gasol and Ade are no longer too threatening.

The inside line could not be opened, and the Spurs could only use a combination of inside and outside tactics in the fourth quarter, but Zhang Feng limited Parker and Danny Green well, and the score difference between the two teams has not changed much. In the last 3 minutes, the Spurs fought desperately to frantically trap Zhang Feng, but Zhang Feng used his teammates to cover and shot at the free throw line many times.

With only 30 seconds left in the game, the Spurs trailed by 8 points, Kawaii missed three points, Zhang Feng grabbed the rebound and scored 2+1, and Popovich left the court early and announced his defeat.

After the game, Zhang Feng was interviewed by TNT reporters, and the first question was why the midfield could quickly recover the situation after falling behind.

"It's all O'Neal's credit for teaching me how to defend the centre"
