CHAPTER 672: TIMING

Is Derknowiti, a bitter master of Phil Jackson?

When Reggie Miller threw out this topic, many fans in front of TVs around the world were stunned and couldn't come back to their senses all of a sudden.

Usually we will say that a certain player is the sufferer of a certain team, and occasionally there will be a saying that a certain player is the sufferer of another player.

The most typical, for example, Kobe Bryant is the bitter master of the Spurs, and the Spurs' defensive strategy is unparalleled in the world, but it will be a headache when it encounters Kobe. Regardless of whether the Spurs won or lost in the end, Kobe Bryant always played a pivotal role on the court, and at one point the Spurs' defensive line began to wonder whether their defensive strategy was useful or not.

For example, Delon is Paul's bitter master - Paul has basically sat on the throne of the world's No. 1 point guard since 2008, even if Nash and Rondo later snatched the title of assist king from Paul, but in terms of comprehensive strength, Paul is indeed the best point guard in the league. This situation did not end until Curry was born in the plane where you and I were.

However, it is such a point guard template with a 2K rating of more than 90 every year, and everyone is comfortable with it, but as long as he sees DeLong, he will be deflated. Regardless of whether Delong is a fledgling, at the peak, or has fallen sharply, as long as he touches Paul, the little fat man's nerves seem to be mobilized, and his body is on fire, chasing 183 masked mysterious men and beating him all kinds of fat.

Another example is Howard and Yao Ming, who are familiar to our Chinese fans - what years does Da Yao have that can definitely be counted as the league's No. 1 center? This question may be different, after all, in the early stage of his career, Shaq was still at his peak. Later in his career, Warcraft rose strongly again, and it is indeed difficult to say whether Da Yao has dominated the position of center forward.

But one thing is undoubted, as long as Da Yao sees Howard once, he will beat him once. Even after the game, the data of Warcraft does not seem to be ugly, but looking at the game scene, Da Yao eating Warcraft is like eating a melon seed, without chewing.

But to say that Dirk is Phil Jackson's bitter master? Is there such a saying in this world??

In fact, it's just like saying that Kobe is the bitter master of the Spurs, and in Kobe's career, the Spurs are basically old drunkards as head coaches. To put it bluntly, we said that Kobe restrained the Spurs, which means that Kobe's style of play is more restrained by the defensive style of the old drunkard! ”

Reggie Miller explained: "Dirk and Phil Jackson are the same truth, in the first few years of his career, Dirk was not the core of the team, not to mention for the time being, the first big explosion of Dirk's career in 2000 was to beat Phil Jackson's Lakers at that time, and he scored 30 points on 10-of-16 shooting." In the next year, when the Lakers were at their peak, Dirk played the Lakers averaging 27+10 per game, with a shooting rate of nearly 57%. In the next two years, Dirk also scored 25 points and 22 rebounds against the Lakers. ”

Then when Phil later returned to the Lakers, Dirk also took what he wanted in the face of Phil's team, with 25+10 as standard, and 30+15 from time to time. beat Gasol in the playoffs in 11 and made the Lakers cry inside, and everyone should have an impression. Phil was not a defensive-focused coach in the first place, his style was to crush with superstars and bring out the superstar's abilities to the fullest. In addition to Gasol, when Phil was with the Lakers, his big forwards were basically defensive sharpshooters, and Horry was no exception. But why can't you prevent Dirk? To be honest, I don't quite understand either. ”

After a few words, the sideline timeout ended, and the players from both sides prepared to return to the court.

Kings fans, there's good news.

"Yo! Dirk went down to rest! ”

With Albert's exclamation, the Mavericks put the team's core Nowitzki down for rest, judging from the game time, there are still 3 minutes left in the third quarter, which can be regarded as a regular rotation rhythm.

The opposite Kings also took advantage of the time when Dirk went down to rest and put Beasley at the No. 4 position, which seemed to be preparing to strengthen the offense and play more offensive and defensive transitions.

However, the Kings also made some personnel adjustments that people couldn't understand.

"Well, my cousin's departure can be said to coincide with Dirk's playing time, so that my cousin can maintain sufficient physical fitness and continue to fight with Dirk at any time. But is it really good to replace Wei Shao now? Albert was puzzled.

"Thomas Jr.'s attack power is very strong, and the Mavericks want to continue to take advantage of the opportunity to fight against the bench to disrupt the battle!" Miller analyzed: "But now that the Mavericks center is Blair at the top, he is very short, why not go to Jermaine??" Blair doesn't have any mid-range shots, and Jermaine doesn't have to defend himself, so isn't it good to come up and collect rebounds and hit the basket? ”

I don't understand.

From putting O'Neal Jr. in the opening stanza, playing half a quarter of the game to replace him, and then sitting on the bench all the time, Miller couldn't understand the Kings' attitude towards O'Neal Jr.

You say it's respect for the veteran, just forget about the respect at the beginning, what does it mean to see that Xiao Ao can't attack and can't defend, and he has been on the field for so long? ?

From another point of view, you said that you have confidence in Xiao Ao, and you want him to find the feeling of the game, and trust him to be out of shape sooner or later. So why didn't you replace him in the middle of the first quarter?

Phil Jackson, what the hell is going on??

"Coach...... Instructor! ”

Here, fans and commentators can't understand Phil Jackson's brain circuit.

On the other side, Wei Shao really couldn't bear it, and while the big guys were staring at the court carefully, he slipped to the coach in small steps, and said in a low voice: "Chasing dreams can't prevent Dirk!" When Dirk goes up in the future, you change to a person to defend Dirk! ”

"Hehe, I know." Phil Jackson smiled and nodded.

“…… Who are you going to change?? Wei Shao couldn't stand Phil Jackson's hidden appearance, and asked, "Is Speights okay??" He's heavy, he can carry it! ”

"Hehe, Speight's defense is average, he can't stop chasing dreams, how can Speights defend against it?" Phil Jackson shook his head.

"That's Danny! Wasn't he very powerful when he was in the top four position before?? can defend again, and can pull out to shoot three-pointers, Dirk's footsteps can't catch up with him! Wei Shao himself praised his own mind.

"Hehe, the current Dirk is not afraid of the little man's defense at all." Phil Jackson still shook his head.

"What should I do? What do you say? Wei Shao was anxious, glared and said, "Really let my cousin's stinky guy and Dirk face off against each other??" Wouldn't that leave him in the limelight alone??? ”

"Hehe, Lao Tzu Zhun, don't let Lao Tzu Biao, do you want you to strike iron?" Gu Yu passed by, imitating Phil Jackson's tone and dropped such a sentence, and then Gu Zi poured water and drank it.

"You, you, you......" Wei Shao stomped his feet anxiously.

"Hehe, he's right." Phil Jackson smiled and nodded, and gave Wei Shao another stab.

“…… Okay, okay, I don't care about that, I just want to know, when Dirk comes back on the court in a while, how can we defend it! Wei Shao asked eagerly.

…… Well?

This sentence made Gu Yu and Phil Jackson stunned, Gu Yu paused, stood beside Wei Shao, looked through Wei Shao's bowed body, and looked at Phil Jackson.

It's amazing, our Dawei Shao seems to care more about the team's victory or defeat than his own data!

That's a huge step forward!

“…… What for?! Noticing that the two were looking at each other, Wei Shao immediately rubbed his head and got up, turned his head and stared at Gu Yu with his nose and eyes, and said with his hands on his hips: "What are you looking at?!" ”

"Look at you!" Gu Yu rolled his eyes, raised his middle finger, swaggered back to his seat and sat down amid Wei Shao's scolding, raised his head and was about to drink water.

"Beep beep beep !!"

The referee's whistle blows.

“…… Ha? Raising his eyes, Gu Yu found that the linesman was actually standing in front of him, with a whistle in his mouth and a finger pointing at him, and he couldn't help but pause in the action of drinking water.

"Kings No. 22, making insulting fan gestures, technical foul!!"

"I'm a fairy ...... you"

In the laughter of the whole world, Gu Yu was pressed back to the bench by his teammates, and almost didn't fight with the referee on the spot.

Damn, that middle finger is for Wei Shao, hey!!

The small episode added a bit of tension to this already anxious game. How do Mavericks home fans know what happened? Immediately, some people thought that Gu Yu was giving the middle finger to the big guy, and all kinds of scolding came overwhelmingly.

What kind of temper does Gu Yu have? After drinking the cup, he pinched and wrinkled, glanced at the referee, and found that the referee was blowing the penalty in the front court, and suddenly turned around and threw the cup into the stands.

"Damn, it's been blown up, you can't lose it!"

"Hahaha......"

In the laughter of the players, Gu Yu was about to usher in the ban punishment for the next game.

Soon after, the third quarter of the game ended and the fourth quarter began, and the two sides were still standing still, and the substitutes were playing happily on the court. The score difference always hovers between plus or minus 5 points, and the two sides go back and forth from time to time, and the game scene is also particularly lively.

Gu Yu got enough rest, and it wasn't until 9 minutes left in the fourth quarter that he was called up by Phil Jackson and ready to play.

Meanwhile.

“…… Dirk is coming back! My cousin is coming back too!! The scoring forces of both sides are coming back, and the final battle is about to begin!! ”

The old driver of Dirk, who had also rested for a long time, also got up and began to warm up, ready to play, and the emotions of the fans at the scene were restless again, waiting for the next "Maverick Moment" that is bound to be wonderful.

This season's Mavericks' trick was between the 9 minutes of the fourth quarter and the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter, which was a short half quarter.

DURING THIS TIME, THE MAVERICKS WILL GRAB ONE OF THE OPPOSING TEAM'S CHIPS AND FIELD A VERY "ADVANCED" LINEUP.

But this time, Phil Jackson smiled at the corner of his mouth, and everything was under control.
