"This game, the situation is not very good!" At this time, in a high-end office building in Cleveland, several bigwigs were watching TV in a huge conference room, and the TV was playing the final of the World Championships, the big battle between the United States team and the Chinese team, and the Chinese team only lost to the other side by four points in the half. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At this time, these people in Cleveland obviously don't pay much attention to the question of who wins and who loses in the end of this game, they only care about one person, a person named Zhang Kong, these people are none other than the board members of the Cavaliers.
"It's not good, when there is Yao, the Chinese team can still top it, if Yao is off, then the American team will have a great advantage in the inside and outside, and even if Zhang Kong has three heads and six arms, it is estimated that it will be difficult to win this game." It was a new face that I hadn't seen in this office, with a big bald head, kind eyes, and the little mustache with the surname Peugeot, this guy is the head coach of the Cavaliers next season who has just signed a contract with the Cavaliers...... Byron Scott.
Since James' departure, the entire Cavaliers team has collapsed from a very beautiful palace to a ruin in an instant.
Dan Gilbert's superstar recruitment tactics have also been criticized by other board members, and in such a situation, he needs to establish a hero for Cleveland again, and Zhang Kong, who has no hometown in the United States, has come into his sights with Huang's proposal.
However, Zhang Kong's asking price was too high, and he used to feel a little embarrassed because of such a problem, but when he saw Cleveland's desertion, he decisively spent 120 million to sign Zhang Kong, and the Cavaliers began to rebuild with Zhang Kong as the core.
It is very important to help Zhang Kong find a good coach, and the names of countless coaches have appeared in Dan Gilbert's mind, former Rockets head coach Jeff Van Gundy, unemployed junior general Johnson, and coach Larry Brown, who is interested in leaving the Bobcats, and later found out that these coaches have not been very good at controlling this aspect of point guard.
Jeff Van Gundy has always focused on interior defense, think about Alston, Johnson Jr. focuses on offensive and defensive balance, think about Devin Harris, Larry Brown focuses on academics, and the main role of point guard is to pass the ball, think about Felton.
Larry Brown has only helped one point guard in his life, and Allen Iverson finally broke up unhappily, Zhang Kong is more cold than Allen Iverson, and it is estimated that he will not be compatible with this coach at all...... In this case, he took a fancy to Byron Scott, a coach who was very powerful, after all, he single-handedly brought the Hornets into the league's powerhouse.
Especially Paul has today's level under his tutelage, with a kind temper, listening to the advice of the players, playing in an eclectic style, can break fast, can defend, and is no worse than the Jazz's Sloan.
Such a coach, no one invited him, it happened to be cheaper for the Cavaliers, originally Byron Scott did not want to be the head coach, but when he heard that Zhang Kong had joined, he smiled and agreed to come and try, which shows that Zhang Kong is really powerful now.
Watching the Sino-American war on TV, the people in the whole office were very silent, after all, the TV is the core of their future, so far, Zhang Kong has performed very well, can't help but connect the team, and play the game to such a point.
But just because of this, these directors still can't be reassured, what they need is the feeling of being open to the sky.
Not only do the directors of these Cavaliers think so now, but Deng Huade also thinks so, at this time, what he needs is not Zhang Kong to connect the team, but Zhang Kong to score, which is very important to make up for the vacancy after Yao Ming is not on the court.
After playing 6 minutes and 11 seconds in the third quarter, Yao Ming finally couldn't stand it and was roughly replaced, leaving Zhang Kong alone on the court, and after Yao Ming got off the court, in less than 30 seconds, the guy Durant made a comeback and hit two three-pointers in front of Yi Jianlian in a row.
Without the pillar of the inside line, the offense of the entire American team was revitalized, while the offense of the Chinese team was troublesome.
What is needed at this time is a hero, and this hero can only be Zhang Kong, looking at the situation on the field, Zhang Kong also knows that there is no choice.
Looking at Zhang Kong's eyes in the TV, his eyes suddenly froze, and Byron Scott, who was sitting in front of the TV, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"He's going on the attack!" Byron Scott looked at Zhang Kong on the TV and laughed softly.
If Zhang Kong is a sword, then Zhang Kong just now is a sword hidden in the scabbard, now he has pulled out the sword, pointing directly at the throat of the American team, as if to confirm Byron Scott's words, in China's next attack, Zhang Kong actually took the initiative to attack, now there is no Yao Ming, Zhang Kong seems to be ready to dominate the right to shoot, after dribbling the ball after half the court, Zhang Kong a simple lateral movement, and then make a momentum to break through, Ross couldn't help but take half a step back, but still maintain a three-threat position, But even so, it couldn't stop Zhang Kong, and Zhang Kong jumped straight in front of him.
Zhang Kong has 198 centimeters, which gives him a great advantage when facing any No. 1 player, so when Zhang Kong jumped, although Rose also jumped, he was still a little behind, and he could only block Zhang Kong's eyes with his hand.
And Zhang Kong took advantage of this opportunity to directly throw the basketball in his hand, and the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and fell straight into the basket, bringing a wave of nets, three points, this is the fourth three-pointer Zhang Kong hit in this game.
And this is not the end, in the next attack, Zhang Kong is still in this position, it is still such a ball, he threw it out again, and it was three points, and he still hit, Ross now understands Yi Jianlian's depression just now.
Shooting three points in front of you like this is really shocking, especially against an opponent who has been pressing his head.
Zhang Kong scored six points in a row and pulled the score back to 10 points, but this is not the end, Rudy Gay on the American team also hit a shot, turning the score into 10 points again, and Zhang Kong's side is not polite, he is not too defensive now, and puts all his energy on offense, his offense lets everyone know that Zhang Kong is not a guy who can't attack, but he doesn't want to attack, as long as he wants to, it's still very easy to attack! Because of the height problem, the heavy responsibility of defending Zhang Kong was handed over to Durant by Lao K, but in the face of Durant, Zhang Kong didn't shoot three points, because he had already shot 10 three-pointers, and then it was another round, and it was very irresponsible to shoot three points at such a moment.
Coupled with the fact that the opposing player has changed from Rose to Durant, Zhang Kong has another way to deal with him, break through!
When facing Rose, Zhang Kong's breakthrough effect is not very obvious, because Rose is very heavy, and his strength is also very large, of course, this is just compared with the average point guard, compared with Zhang Kong, he is still a little worse, but even if it is worse, it is not so easy for Zhang Kong to squeeze him out, after breaking through him, he can still stick to his side, which is very troublesome.
But in the face of Durant, there is no such problem, this guy is thin and tall, and he is a waste in terms of strength, Zhang Kong directly knocked him to the side with a simple squeeze, and when he adjusted his center of gravity and came to chase Zhang Kong, Zhang Kong had already rushed into the inner line, and he didn't give the other party any chance at all, Zhang Kong rushed over directly, and in the case of Billups next to him to help defend, Zhang Kong still flew directly and dunked, and Billups, who originally wanted to make Zhang Kong's foul, let Zhang Kong fall down before he could stand firm.
The referee's gesture came out instantly, and the goal was valid, plus a penalty kick, and this time Billups became the background of Zhang Kong.
Zhang Kong didn't hold time, standing on the free throw line, Zhang Kong let out a sigh, and then aimed at the basket in front of him and pushed the basketball out steadily, the basketball did not make trouble, but fell directly into the basket, the Chinese team chased the score to seven points, Zhang Kong himself played a wave of 9-0 scoring small **, in one fell swoop to his own score of 28 points, and at this critical moment, the United States team is Gai Yi, in the position of small forward, he has too much advantage in the face of Sun Yue.
Guy shot well, but in turn, the Chinese team also found an opportunity, Zhang Kong broke through again, this time the American team learned from the top, he arranged heavy troops on the inside, and Zhang Kong wrapped dumplings when he just came over.
At this time, the outside line of the Chinese team, because no one has attacked for too long, has been forgotten by the American team's surname, Wang Shipeng received Zhang Kong's pass, almost subconsciously shot directly on the three-point line, worthy of the existence of the original in the international competition, the basketball is very accurate hit, the score difference between the two sides is six points, Wang Shipeng also used this ball to tell the players of the American team, the Chinese team is not so easy to play! Watching the accurate hit of the basketball, the players on the bench also stood up and waved their towels vigorously.
Only Yao Ming remained silent, because what he needed most now was to recover his strength, and he still had to play!
