Chapter 162 [Dazzling]

The Kings are one of the most terrible visiting team locker rooms in NBA.

It's amazing. There is not even a kitchen in the locker room, just a row of hooks.

The players chatted and waited quietly for the game to start. They came here to play games, not travel, so they could just bear it and pass.

When the players appeared, the order became Wang Jun's fourth last. This small change proves that in the eyes of the coaching staff, his role is greater than that of Collins and he is the No. 4 figure of the team.

Wang Jun's performance was dazzling, and CCTV5 finally broadcasted the online team game live.

Zhang Heli introduced with great enthusiasm: "Today is Wang Jun's fourth game on behalf of the Nets. He performed so well, winning 20+ in three consecutive games, and few rookies can do it."

Partner Yu Jia said: "Wang Jun went to the United States alone. After playing NCAA for a year, he participated in the draft and was selected in the fourth place in the second round. Now he proved that he was underestimated. In NCAA, he averaged 20+ per game, led the team to the quarterfinals and almost won the Best Newcomer Award. All 29 teams in the league missed him in the first round, and they must regret it."

Zhang Heli smiled and said, "I think the ones I regret the most are the Pistons and the Heat. The Pistons are the earliest team to pay attention to Wang Jun. Finally, they chose the Argentinian Delphino who cannot play this season. The Heat traded Wang Jun to the Nets, and Zoran Praninic, who was exchanged for, averaged only 3.3 points and 1.4 assists per game. "Jin Operator's Pat Riley also scored a shot this time."

Although known as one of the smartest presidents, Riley also missed the situation. Now he is very upset about the dealings of Wang Jun. Not long ago, he was happy to send this thorn away for the team.

The Heat also play small ball tactics, currently 5 wins and 11 losses, with a bad record. They thought they would not lack three-pointers, but their shooting after the game was unstable, and there were few players like Wang Jun.

On the sidelines, coach Lawrence arranged the tactics exactly the same as before, trying to run during fast attacks and positional warfare.

This is very targeted. The Kings are not moving fast inside the inside. Weber is not on the court, so the defense is slightly worse, so they can only rely on joint defense to limit the opponent's offense.

When Scott was in the past, the biggest difference between him and now is that he was playing pick-and-roll in the position, and the others stood firm to attract defense. If Jefferson made a three-pointer, it would be more threatening to do so, but Jefferson was not a good fixed-point pitcher.

Players from both sides stood in the center circle. The Nets started: Kidd, Kitels, Wang Jun, Martin, and Collins.

Kings starters: Bibi, Christie, Stojakovic, Miller, Divac.

Before he could play, Wang Jun excited Chinese fans.

Jefferson actually took the bench because of his poor performance in the first two games?

Divac easily jumped the ball and won, Bibby brought it to the frontcourt, and Miller covered the pick-and-roll.

He broke through from the left, attracting Martin to replace the defense and then split into the middle. Miller paused for a moment, made a jump shot, and missed the basket with a slight interference from Kidd.

The Kolinska man, Wang Jun retreated to the inside and grabbed the rebound.

If it was Kidd, he would launch a counterattack with a long pass. Wang Jun did not react so quickly, nor did he have excellent passing skills. The result of a long pass was probably a mistake.

During the team training, the coaching staff knew Wang Jun's passing skills, so Kidd did not make a quick break, but instead received the pass and landed in the position.

Wang Jun ran upline at the right bottom corner, and relied on Collins to protect him to get rid of Stojakovic.

Super defensive player Christie went to deal with the "mosquito", and the two were similar in size.

So, Wang Jun got the opportunity at the beginning, and Divac was one of the slowest players in the league and could not switch to defense.

He received the ball at 70 degrees, turned half and jumped to the ball, added a small backward posture, and the ball was as beautiful as a picture, and the ball was hollow into the net! 3 to 0.

Zhang Heli shouted: "Good opportunity... I have it! Wang Jun takes action for the first time, it's so accurate."

Yu Jia sighed: "Wang Jun hit three-pointers in four consecutive games, which is his main attack weapon. Among all the rookies this year, he is the most accurate outside. If you short him, you will definitely pay a heavy price."

The Kings attacked, Wang Jun defended closely, and Peja passed the ball out and ran to the bottom corner.

Wang Jun was blocked by Miller as soon as he chased after him. Collins was much more active in defending the corner. He chased him and Bibby passed the ball to Miller.

Miller jumped three-pointers with a height advantage at 70 degrees on the right. His arc was not high and he almost didn't jump. Wang Jun didn't cover it, and the ball bounced into the frame. 3 to 3.

Nets attack, Martin's pick-and-roll at a high position, Kidd broke through with the ball, Divac has rich experience, keeps a distance and can interfere with the shooting by relying on his height.

"Ghost Hand" Divac was selected as an All-Star. He was creative in passing the ball on the offensive end, and his fake falls were superb on the defensive end.

However, his movement speed was slower than Yao Ming. Kidd easily distanced him from the mid-range shot. He scored 5-3.

The Kings attacked, Divac picked and rolled high, Bibi attracted Martin to defend, the ball was passed to the side, Peja got rid of Wang Jun with cover, and took a three-pointer from the right corner. Collins was not as tall as Peja, and he couldn't block it if he was slower, and the ball was hollowed into the net. 5 to 6.

Wang Jun seemed to see himself. This is his playing style. Once the defender is separated by the inside, he can only rely on his teammates to make up for the defense. If his teammates don’t save, then pray that the opponent will not make the shot.

As a recognized NBA super pitcher, Peja has a shooting percentage of more than 40% of the year. How could he miss the open spot?

The Nets attacked and Kidd passed the ball to Martin in the frontcourt. Martin rushed faster than the defender and forced a layup under the interference of Miller.

The ball did not go in, but Martin immediately took off for a second time and took off the frontcourt rebound from Miller's head.

Miller defended under the basket, and Christie also withdrew from the basket, one interfering from the top and the other taking the ball from the bottom. Martin did not attack strongly and divided the ball to the periphery.

Kitels received the ball from the left, attracting Bibi to make up for defense, and gave the ball to the middle. Kidd attracted Peja to make up for defense, and passed Wang Jun on the right.

Wang Jun received the ball with a 50-degree jump shot from the right side.

Christie had a strong sense of conversion from the inside to defend Wang Jun, and he interfered very in a timely manner. He did not ask for a block, but reached his hand on Wang Jun's face.

As soon as the ball was shot, Zhang Heli yelled: "I have it!"

As a result, the ball popped out.

As a super defensive player, Christie's physique is average, relying on excellent defensive awareness and skills. Interference is more practical than blocking, making Wang Jun unable to see the basket clearly.

Miller protects the backcourt rebounds and fights the Kings in position.

The Kings are not good at counterattacking, and their tactics are very distinctive - Princeton.

This is the deepening of the pick-and-roll, and the players keep tearing open the opponent's defense with cover and running passes, creating space.

Weber and Divac both have strong support capabilities and are suitable for this tactic. Miller, who was introduced this year, has also been perfectly integrated into the system.

Bibi and Miller were pick-and-roll first, and the ball was passed in the middle. Miller received the ball and did not shoot, and passed it to Peja. Peja attracted Corinth to replace the defense and distributed it to Divac.

Divac squeezed into the inside twice, but Wang Jun couldn't hold it. Divac's weight was among the top few in the league, and the two were not the same model at all. Divac attracted Martin to assist in defense, and did not shoot, and the ball was divided into the middle. At this time, Miller and Bibby completed the cover without the ball.

Bibi got rid of Kidd and scored 5-9.
