Chapter 102: Gong Feng's Free Throws
When the two sides of the game stood on the court again, Jackson still felt a trace of surprise, Gong Feng, Hamilton actually played directly at the beginning? Didn't the Wizards' approach in the first half end of the first quarter? Want to work together in the fourth quarter? However, looking at the appearance of the two Gong Feng, Jackson was just a little surprised, but he would not make any other arrangements, as far as the normal rhythm is concerned, the Wizards should indeed do this, rather than betting on the success or failure of the final quarter.
Collins has never been a big gambling coach, and it is Collins' style to do things steadily, as long as the players are on the court in the second half, I'm afraid they still play the rotation defense in the first half, right? The appearance of the two Gong Feng is only to strengthen the efficiency of the Wizards' offense in the second half...... If the Wizards really think so, then it's good to give the Wizards a big surprise in a while!
Although Jackson explained the weaknesses of the Wizards' defense at halftime, the offensive focus of his own side was not finally implemented, just because of one point, if the Lakers win the final championship, who will be the best player?
The problem is completely unsolvable right now, so Jackson just asked the other players to see the form, to see how the Wizards defended, and the 'subtlety' of it can only be grasped by Fisher, Fox and Horry.
Isn't the triangle attack a tactic where the core players start to pass the ball first, and then the other players look for the enemy's gaps? It's just to make your strong point stronger and stronger in the game, so that the enemy can't grasp the key point, isn't it good?
Gong Feng took the ball at the beginning and looked around, the Lakers did not plan to use the physical full-court press at the beginning, not to mention that the current Lakers team is dominant, and there is no need to take risks now.
Seeing this, Gong Feng had no expression, just slowly moved forward with the ball until he stood in front of Fisher, just when Fisher thought that Gong Feng was going to pass the ball and run away again, Gong Feng immediately lowered his body and broke through from Fisher's right side at the moment when Fisher was stunned......
In the six and a half games in which the two sides fought, Gong Feng's direct breakthrough in the face of Fisher was almost none, even if Gong Feng's past regular season videos were studied, it was rare to see Gong Feng's direct breakthrough, and most of Gong Feng's breakthroughs to the inside line relied on the blocking and dismantling with Kwame or Leitner, and only then did he use limited speed to the inside line, see the opportunity to score, or look for the opportunity to exist.
In Fisher's memory, this was the first time that Gong Feng had made a straightforward breakthrough to him head-on...... A breakthrough without the slightest hesitation.
Fisher, who was a step slower, could only follow Gong Feng's footsteps closely behind, but Gong Feng's action route was so direct for the first time in front of Fisher's eyes, and he went directly to the basket where O'Neal was.
Horry quickly assisted in the defense at this time, Gerrard was already ready to accelerate the ball, but Gong Feng didn't look at Gerald, but faced Horry's defense, and rushed directly to Horry's body, Horry, who was a little caught off guard, couldn't imagine that Gong Feng would break through so much, and a conscious movement of his hand was directly blown by the referee to block a foul.
After the referee's whistle sounded, Gong Feng got up from the floor, moved his hands and feet, did not squeak, just came to the free throw line with a blank face and waited for the free throw.
For the Lakers, it is six finals that they have not seen Gong Feng break through directly at people like this, and take the initiative to find fouls, but for all the other players on the Wizards, they are even more surprised and surprised.
A statistic can show the rarity of Gong Feng directly breaking through to make fouls, and Gong Feng averaged 1.2 free throws per game in the regular season......
Although Gong Feng's free throw shooting rate is as high as 90% or more, is a few points of zero for the Wizards to be of any use?
Several people who saw this in front of the TV immediately widened their eyes, and one of them, Coach K, even pushed away the coffee that was just right, and looked at Gong Feng who was preparing to make a free throw at the free throw line without blinking.
Jordan, Kwamei, and Leitner, who participated in the final game with their teammates, were also extremely surprised to look at Gong Feng, who was constantly touching the basketball and preparing to make free throws...... This kind of bow peak is a very rare occurrence when they were in the last game.
The magician had already been waiting in the VIP seat on the sidelines, looking at the expression of Gong Feng in the camera, and after asking the assistant next to him for a copy of all the data of Gong Feng in the first half, he glanced at Gong Feng's preparation again, was silent for a while, and left the box, planning to take a look off the field, ignoring Bass who was sitting next to him.
Gong Feng prepared for a little long time to make free throws, the ball kept rolling in Gong Feng's hands, Gong Feng even rolled the basketball with both hands at the end, back and forth between the floor and his hands three times, and saw that the referee had obvious signs of blowing, Gong Feng threw the basketball in his hand, and the basketball was in Gong Feng's hands, drawing a straight line almost parallel to the basket very naturally.
Basketball shot! When Gong Feng saw this, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly.
After shooting, Gong Feng was not in a hurry to catch the basketball, Gong Feng did a few shooting actions before that, which looked very ordinary, Gong Feng's basic shooting gestures when shooting, but seeing that Coach K here had unconsciously clenched his fists with both hands, and the hands holding the fists were actively put to his mouth.
If you look carefully at the whole process of this free throw, Gong Feng's free throw is very fast after receiving the ball from the referee's hand, and Gong Feng's right toe did not step on the free throw line at all, and both feet were just parallel to the semi-circular frame of the free throw......
If Gong Feng didn't score this goal, many people would think that Gong Feng's game attitude was not good enough, as if he threw the ball out at great will.
After the bow peak was thrown, the basketball, which looked a little exaggerated in arc, quickly rose to the highest point, and almost vertically downwards 'smashed' into the basket...... Coach K, who saw that the free throw was still in this time, smiled happily, took the coffee on the table in his hand again, and even beckoned the assistant coach and other personnel to watch the NBA Finals.
It wasn't until all of Duke's team assistants, and now the main team of the Blue Devils, and the substitute players entered this large hall to watch the game and give tactical presentations, that Coach K stood up with everyone in front of him and said very meaningfully.
"Didn't you ask me how I found this disciple Gong Feng? Or why is Gong Feng's position in the team able to hold the position of your idol Jay? So take a look at the process of this game, after watching it, especially after watching this last quarter, you will know why I recruited Gong Feng into the Blue Devils in the first place! ”
As if thinking of some kind of interview question, Coach K rarely burst into foul language, "What kind of bullshit organizational ability did he show at that time, and what was the overall situation of Gong Feng at that time?" What's the big heart? What is the stability? Lao Tzu asked him to come in because of a certain ability that surpassed mortals, otherwise Lao Tzu had a nervous problem to find a college student of high school age to enter the team......"
Lakers' Jackson wouldn't have known what Coach K was thinking at this time, but what if he knew now? Can you surrender directly to the Wizards? And then say that the Lakers 'have a bug in playing the game'? Or do you want to go directly to the front and stick to the bow peak tightly, not letting the bow peak catch the ball? The rules allow it, but how can the remaining three people win a team of four? To put it more is to let the Lakers players pay a little attention to Gong Feng......
It's just that Coach K can't help but understand, or unconsciously explodes a certain ability, that the Lakers players can stop with a little attention? What's more, the current Lakers players don't know what is going on.
Going deeper, this is the Lakers' first offense in the second half, and it is the long-awaited offense of all the Lakers players after receiving Jackson's instructions at halftime......
In everyone's opinion, the Wizards' defense is the main reason why the result of the game has been delayed until now, so that all members of the Wizards can breathe a sigh of relief and breathe until now......
This offense by the Lakers is going to completely destroy the last reliance of the Wizards, or the last hope!
PS, first of all, a word of understatement...... Let's take a look down, it's going to be a great game.
