Chapter 221 [China's First Home Team]

Wang Juncai left the hotel at noon the next day, and his relationship with Theron became intimate.

He began to consider whether to buy a big apartment in New York, so that when Theron was in New York, the two could live together instead of meeting in a hotel and be careful to avoid reporters.

Buying an apartment is like a golden house, and going to a hotel is like a private meeting.

Le Ying was very smart and told Selma, who came to the door, that Wang Jun had gone out to train and that there was a game at night, which did not arouse suspicion.

On the 23rd, in the game against the Heat, the Nets lost unexpectedly.

The main reason for the loss was Kidd's mentality.

Kidd saw that Wade was absent, and the opponent's starting point guard was the "street ball king" Alston, so he increased his breakthrough and played alone with the ball.

There are many stars who pursue data, and those who are good at shooting will be easier to brush points, and Kidd's mid- and long-range shooting is only accurate if there are empty positions, and if you want to brush data, you have to increase and break through.

ALSTOM IS RELATIVELY THIN, 188CM TALL, AND WEIGHS LESS THAN 80 KG. But as a New York street fighter, he is very good at defending breakouts, and the Heat are also very fast to change defenses inside, and the result of Kidd's strong attack is continuous shooting.

As soon as Kidd made more shots, the number of shots by other players naturally decreased, and Jefferson and Wang Jun played very averagely.

Kittels, who came off the bench, was even more sluggish, also a blacksmith, and the Nets trailed by 17 points in the third quarter.

In the final quarter, the Nets' offense was slow to find a feeling, and the players became impatient and felt worse, losing the game 74-85.

Wang Jun only had 10 points and 7 rebounds and no assists.

Kidd played badly, shooting just 4-of-19 from the field and 1-of-4 from three-point range. He had 9 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists.

Alston had 13 points and five assists on 5-of-11 shooting. With three three-pointers, the performance was worthy of a start.

At a press conference. Lawrence did not criticize Kidd and took the blame for the defeat on himself, saying that the tactics and on-the-spot response were not good enough.

On the 24th, Lawrence talked to Kidd alone and talked about yesterday's game.

"Jason, you can't play like this, you shouldn't focus on scoring, you've taken a lot of shots in recent games."

Kidd smiled. "I know, but I still want to try the main attack. Because of that kid on the team, I feel old. ”

Lawrence understood that Kidd was talking about Jun.

Martin and Jefferson used to have beautiful stats, but they didn't make Kidd feel old. Now the three young players in the team take up a lot of opportunities, and he has fewer shots, and he is beginning to feel like he is abdicating to make way for Xian.

Kidd is only two months away from 31 years old and in his prime, and he wants to take on more responsibilities.

Last season, Kidd averaged a career-high 18.7 points per game, which has dropped to 13.2 this season. This gap made him uncomfortable.

Lawrence sighed: "I can understand it, but I still have to advise you to focus on passing, so that we can win more easily." ”

Teammates are alone, someone is practicing shooting. Wang Jun and Jefferson go head-to-head.

Kidd looked at the court and said lightly: "Actually, I don't accept many point guards, especially Iverson. His style of play doesn't make his teammates play to their strengths. But I won the MVP, and I helped the team reach the Finals two years in a row. The evaluation is only ridiculously strong in the west and weak in the east. If the Nets had won the best record this season, would anyone think it would be my credit? ”

Lawrence didn't answer. Q: "Need me to help you with your tactics?" ”

"No, two consecutive defeats can already say something, traditional guards want to win the MVP, it is much more difficult than scorers, I will reduce the shots." Kidd had already thought about it, and his expression was not good-looking.

The direction he stared at, Korver was practicing his three-point shot, and he couldn't be more accurate.

At this moment, Kidd thought to himself: If I could be so accurate, I would probably be MVP a long time ago.

He is good at defense, organization, and can break through, but he shoots averagely, and he hasn't improved much after practicing for many years, which is the most depressing.

On the 25th, the Nets defeated the Celtics 110-91 at home, ending the losing streak.

Kidd did what he said, cutting back on shots, with 5 points, 6 rebounds, 13 assists and 2 steals, and the result of sacrificing data was that the Nets scored six double-doubles.

The Celtics have no one in double figures except for Pierce and Ricky Davis.

The Celtics also made the playoffs last season and may not make the playoffs this year. Even if he wins eighth place, it is estimated that he will be swept away.

The Nets then beat the 76ers and the Magic to make it three wins in a row.

Kidd has a triple-double against the Magic, keeping his shots under 10 per game, so he's more of a leader.

Kidd, who is invisible on the offensive end, is the most powerful and is like a coach on the court. At the same time, he can focus more on the defensive end, and he currently ranks first in the league in defensive contributions among point guards.

On the 31st, away against the Rockets, Wang Jun and Yao Ming met for a meal and contacted their feelings.

The Chinese players in the league, only the two of them mix well, Dazhi has a toe injury, his state is sluggish, and he doesn't know when he will lose his job.

Yao Ming believes that the two will join forces in the future, even if the NBA has no chance, the national team will become a good partner, but I don't know who is the boss of the team.

That night, the answer to that question seemed to be found.

Both of them are starters, and it is a "Chinese derby" in the true sense, and CCTV5 will of course broadcast it live.

After the opening, the Nets quickly reversed the main game and played a wave of 12-2.

Joint defense tactics, Wang Jun and Collins are responsible for low-post defense, and they will counterattack when they grab the rebound, and Martin will defend at a high position and attack fast at any time.

The Rockets' main focus is on high-level blocking, Yao Ming's figure can block space, and he can also jump on the periphery of receiving the ball. However, Francis's mid-to-long-range shooting is not very reliable, and his shooting percentage has barely reached 40% this season.

ROCKET POWER FORWARD CATO IS A MEAT SHIELD, 211CM TALL AND 116 KILOGRAMS. His offensive range is under the basket, he doesn't have a mid-range shot, he can't open up space, and Collins is not afraid of that.

Wang Jun changed defenses quickly, and once Mobley and Francis shot iron, they would immediately be chased and counterattacked, and Yao Ming was not Martin's opponent.

In the positional battle, Kittels and Wang Jun received the ball and shot by covering the periphery and running.

The three-point tactics of the Nets suffered the two big men of the Rockets, if they don't change their defense, the opponent will shoot easily, and they may not be able to prevent it if they change their defense, and the opponent can break through with the ball.

"Mosquito" Kittels is not a guard who can only shoot, he can break through and is very fast.

The way the rocket adjusts is to replace Cato and replace the maneuverable Morris? Taylor.

This person's defense is far worse than Cato's, and the contract is 6 years and $48 million, which is scary, and he is a data brush with strong offense and weak defense.

Wang Jun hit three three-pointers in a single quarter to give the Nets a 35-21 lead.

In the second quarter, the bench lineup composed of Jefferson, Rodney, Korver, Rousios, and Williams collapsed the Rockets, and the difference widened to 25 points in one go.

The Rockets bench had only Padgett score two points, and the rest didn't know what to do.

In the second half, the Rockets couldn't get out of the predicament, and they didn't have a single lead in the whole game, losing 77-100.

Wang Jun played 30 minutes and scored 18 points and 8 rebounds.

Yao Ming had 29 minutes and only 9 points and 6 rebounds.

Regardless of scoring or rebounding, Wang Jun's data won Yao Ming.

This game is of great significance, the center of gravity of Chinese fans continues to shift, and the Nets are about to become China's No. 1 home team. (To be continued.) )
