Chapter 155: Great Goal!
"It's not okay to fight like this!" Wu Huang thought that there would be a chance to play inside, but O'Neal Jr.'s excellent performance on the defensive end made most of the Knicks' breakthroughs go in vain.
D'Antoni is also thinking about countermeasures, the Heat's interior defense is not only O'Neal Jr. is playing a role, Haslem's help defense, and Wade's chasing and risking make it difficult for the Knicks' breakthrough to convert into scoring.
The three members of the Heat team are all in good shape today, and it is obviously not a wise decision for them to go to the hard fight at this time.
If the hard break had worked, their offense would have been effective a long time ago, but what about the truth? They didn't score a few points in the box in the third quarter, so it's not good for them to drag it out like that.
At 4:22 in the third quarter, the Knicks called a long timeout, and the score was still 74:58.
"We've got one stat this season that ranks third in the league, you know what's that?" D'Antoni didn't immediately set up his tactics after the timeout, but instead asked such a strange question.
"Is it defensive efficiency?" As soon as Gallinari said this, D'Antoni slapped the tactical board on the head.
"It's the third lowest rate of being blocked, we will hardly be covered, but we are always hesitant to shoot today, are you worried about being covered, or are you worried that you won't be able to throw?" D'Antoni's words made the Knicks players lower their heads, today's game that can't be lost, their pressure is much greater than before, naturally they want to play more efficiently, dare not shoot so unscrupulously, and worry about taking responsibility after losing the game.
D'Antoni naturally knew what these guys were thinking, so he could only shout at the players: "We have too many passes, and if we pass too much, it will inevitably lead to a lot of mistakes, and the rate of interceptions will increase, we can make the game easier, that's what we do best!" And also. You must not think that the right game has to keep sharing the ball, keep passing the ball, that's all wrong! D'Antoni thought of his old enemy, Spurs, and his eyes became as firm as a rock, "It's the fast and refined tactics that are the most threatening, let them see what you're really capable of." ”
Mustache's speech. There are actually a lot to complain about.
First of all, the Knicks can't play the same fast offense as they used to play today, not because they don't want to play like this, but because the Heat's defense is good and the defense is timely.
Secondly, and most importantly, Wu Huang did not open the outside basket except for the first quarter today, and the Knicks' offense was immediately broken in half. Ultimately. They still have to rely on Wu Huang's offense to lead the whole team, Iguodala and Harrington can be the icing on the cake and can lead the bench to launch the offense, but they are difficult to lead the team's offense alone, and the Knicks have not assigned such roles and tactics for them.
At the end of the timeout, before the players came on the field, D'Antoni suddenly grabbed Wu Huang and whispered: "When you break through." You don't even know if you're going to attack or pass, and you can be better than Steve? ”
Wu Huang paused for a moment. Hurriedly asked, "Please be more careful?" ”
D'Antoni stared at him and said, "It's simple, trust your reactions, you can fight how you want, as long as you believe that you are faster than everyone else, you will be faster than them." That's when everybody will say you're fast. You'll be faster! ”
The mustache's words were too tongue-twisting, and Emperor Wu couldn't understand it for a while, but he understood some of the first half.
After the game restarted, Wu Huang made a gesture to block and dismantle.
David Lee didn't rest much today, but he pulled it out after seeing the order. The attitude of the game is still okay.
Wu Huang didn't wait for him to be in place, slapped the basketball twice, and suddenly accelerated to break through to the inside, passing Chalmers in one step......
The Heat timeout, with a special emphasis on the breakthrough defense of Wu Huang and Iguodala, Wu Huang's ball started very suddenly, but the experienced Haslem still moved sideways in time, blocking Wu Huang's breakthrough route, and raising his hands high to delay his attack.
As long as he can drag on for a second, his teammates will be able to cooperate with him to surround Wu Huang.
If this was in the past, Wu Huang must have planned a series of actions after the breakthrough before the breakthrough, although there will be some improvisation in the middle, but most of them are pre-rehearsed routines and pre-thought countermeasures.
He's right to do that, and the first season is of course about being steady.
But not today, Emperor Wu needs to release his spirituality more and give full play to his talents.
For this breakthrough, Wu Huang was improvising from the first step, and the Heat players couldn't predict the prophet, so the reaction was naturally slow. At this time, Wu Huang has taken the initiative, but the Heat can still use their defense to recover this disadvantage, which depends on the result of the second round of the competition between the two sides.
Wu Huang didn't slow down at all after the breakthrough, he remembered Kobe's breakthrough, remembered Nash's breakthrough, and even Parker's breakthrough...... Many times, their breakthrough speed is not so fast, but they dodge left and right, and they hit the basket in two hits, and the defenders on the opposite side are like stakes and can't react at all.
"Why is this happening? How did they do it? "Wu Huang has always longed for this kind of breakthrough, his current breakthrough is more often to use explosiveness and speed advantage, although the effect is similar, but he knows that this method can't last long, the Nets' Harris is an example, this guy was a little faster than him in previous seasons, but now he can't play without speed, he must learn from it.
Wu Huang's breakthrough was only a moment's work, but there were so many things in his mind, and the answer he wanted to know had actually come out, but he hadn't reacted yet.
Haslem saw that Wu Huang was killing in front of him in two steps, and his teammates had not yet joined in, and he was a little confused in his mind. But he was experienced and calm, and immediately chose the plan he had learned from countless lessons in the past, stood up straight, and waited for Wu Huang to send him to the door, and at that time Wu Huang was an offensive foul.
Before Wu Huang collided with Haslem, countless choices quickly flashed in his mind, he didn't know that his brain was running several gears faster than Haslem, and he didn't need to think about it, he instinctively chose the best response plan - the basketball flew out of Wu Huang's hand and fell straight into Harrington's hand on the bottom line.
Harrington's baseline three-pointer wasn't too certain, but Wu's previous breakthrough had caused the Heat's defense to shrink to near the line of the box, so he took a big step forward with impunity. He made a quick shot before the defense arrived, and easily hit a mid-range.
"I kind of get it, the coach is saying I reacted faster than they do?" Wu Huang understood what the mustache meant, he really felt that he was faster than the opponent's speed and reaction when he broke through this time, even if he let the opponent make the move first, he could make a preemptive attack.
Emperor Wu didn't know yet. This is the same philosophy that Mustache teaches all defenders, and he just happens to be the kind of genius who has a lot of reflexes and speed of action.
D'Antoni is a bit like a master in martial arts novels, he teaches a universal formula, rather than specific strains and routines, so he asked Emperor Wu not to think so much, just remember his philosophy, this can get its essence, and when facing the enemy, it can be ever-changing and endless.
This method of teaching once encountering such true geniuses as Nash and Wu Huang. It will be like the wind in the smiling rivers and lakes that meets Linghu Chong, and it will immediately collide with bright sparks.
If you meet some players with average talent, in fact, this concept can also play some power, because a large part of this concept is to improve the "self-confidence" of the player. And it's very important that you can reach your full potential as long as you have full confidence in yourself.
Even if these talented players don't understand D'Antoni's true intentions, it doesn't matter that defense is always the passive side on the basketball court. As long as the attacker is bold and has a high psychological quality. Strong self-confidence, dare to follow the concept of mustache to rush on the field, those teams with average defense will not be able to cope with it (I am talking about Jeremy Lin).
Later generations of D'Antoni met Jeremy Lin, who was not extremely talented, but after the humble and obedient Jeremy Lin, he could still play the miracle of Lin's madness, which is the reason.
Emperor Wu is actually very confident. But his potential is much higher than everyone else, so he needs to be more confident and he can do better and better than he is now.
In the 3rd minute 06 seconds, Wu Huang took the ball on the outside to observe the opponent, and his dribbling was very casual. He has begun to really enter the state, now he no longer thinks about it so much, he is just observing his opponents and teammates, but every move on the court can't escape his eyes, as long as there is a flaw, he will start immediately, and Wu Huang's big picture strengthened by dreams begins to play a role.
The Knicks players were constantly running, and the Heat's defensive formation couldn't be airtight all the time, and a flaw soon leaked.
Wu Huang suddenly burst out, this time he smashed the Yellow Dragon, even if he ended up surrounded by a three-man of Chalmers, Wade and Beasley, he was undaunted, and made the best choice in his mind in an instant, causing Chalmers to foul and score another 2 points through free throws.
The Heat's defense looks to be done well, but in fact it is very passive, and if they have enough time to gather the strength of the three of them, they can completely block Wu Huang's breakthrough.
But Emperor Wu's speed was too fast, and they didn't have enough time to make this bag seamless. So it seems to be a three-person encirclement, but there is a fatal loophole in it, and Emperor Wu found the loophole in an instant, but made a foul more easily.
The more people there are, the bigger the flaws, many players don't know this, most of them panic when they see that they are surrounded by two or three people, only those very few talents who are calm and quick to react, they can use these flaws to score easily in the moment they are trapped.
Wu Huang's previous attack had a strong purpose, in the face of this kind of trapping, he was the first to make no mistakes, although he made few mistakes, but if he continued to fight like this, his spirituality slowly wore out after a long time. Moreover, this style of play does not change much in the offense, although it can make teammates better cooperate and not easy to make mistakes, but on the contrary, his opponent is also easy to guess, and once it is thoroughly studied, it will be easy to be targeted.
If you compete with your opponent to see whose reactions and movements are faster, as long as Wu Huang's body can keep up with his own reactions, he will always be faster than others.
Chalmers was feeling terrible right now, he had a feeling of being teased.
Wu Huang's first few breakthroughs still relied on speed to pass him, so that he was willing to lose, after all, his body was not as good as people. But Chalmers soon found that Wu Huang was playing more and more relaxed, and now he had become a little lazy, and the basketball was getting closer and closer to him, as if he could reach out and steal.
"And if I reach out?" Chalmers was caught in a battle between heaven and man.
Wu Huang smiled happily, after the previous few attacks, he found that the reaction of the guy opposite was too slow, and gradually understood why Anderson Silva always provoked his opponent in the ring, because "Your reaction is so slow, even if I push the ball to you, can you grab it?" "Wu Huang's self-confidence is getting stronger and stronger, and he actually pushed the basketball closer to Chalmers this time, just like giving the ball to the opponent.
Chalmers can't help but stretch out his hand now, but this ball is obviously a trap, Wu Huang once again burst Chalmers in coordination, don't look at him pushed the basketball in the direction of Chalmers, but his legs almost at the same time made a move, in fact, he started a beat earlier than Chalmers, naturally touched the basketball first, and also slapped the basketball in the direction of the basket, and this little thing obediently passed directly under Chalmers's crotch - through the crotch?
"Madison Square Garden" has long since regained the vitality of the first quarter with several wonderful breakthroughs by Wu Huang, and now this pass has made the entire arena burst into deafening cheers!
Wu Huang dribbled the ball into the interior line in an instant, the Heat players never expected to be broken through so quickly, Haslem chose to take the initiative this time, but was cleaned by Wu Huang's wonderful turn, at this time there was only Beasley who rushed back from the flank in the penalty area, but this guy's head was not very bright, and it was destined that Wu Huang scored this great goal.
Beasley rushed back to the box from the flank, jumped high in one fell swoop, and the whole person was almost flat with the basket.
But jumping high is not necessarily useful, Wu Huang didn't jump under the basket at all, just reached out and shook Beasley up with a stroke, but he turned around and made a rebound, strolling the ball up in the circle of Heat players.
Charles Barkley let out a long cry of excitement after Wu Huang's goal, shouting, "Oh my God! Unbelievable dribbles, unbelievable shots, his goal was the best of the week! No, wait, Best of the Month! Best of the Year! ”
Kenny Smith was also stunned by Emperor Wu's goal: "God! He was like enjoying the shot just now, and the game had become a joke, and now that he was slowly pulling back to the defense, the Knicks' offense seemed to be on fire, and they would never continue to fall behind if it continued. ”
The New York fans were also stunned by Wu Huang's goal, Larry Johnson and Ewing stood up directly from their seats, and "Big Mom" even held his head with an unbelievable look.
Spike Lee jumped up from his seat in Emperor Wu's jersey and sneakers, dancing like he was going crazy and almost waving his hand at Wellsmith next to him.
After Wu Huang scored the goal, he really shook his head at the Heat players, with an arrogant and unbeaten face, as if to say: "You scumbags, I can fight ten at a time." Originally, he wanted to say a few words to Wade, but he didn't expect the latter to see his goal that was enough to go down in history this time, and he was very witty to dodge.
Spoelstra hurriedly called a timeout, and the Knicks hit an 8-0 attack wave in just two minutes, and the score had become 74-66. (To be continued.) )
