Chapter 662 [He is still attacking the strong and defending the weak]
When he returned to defense, Wang Jun clenched his fists and shouted...
The viewing ability of the throwing is not as good as a dunk, the pull rod, and the two-pointer is not as good as a three-pointer, but it can effectively avoid the blocking of the big man. Practicing a new technology makes Wang Jun feel more accomplished, and he is one step closer to "ruling".
Paul made an adjustment, so he asked Peja to cover and avoid Wang Jun. He easily changed the speed on the right and passed Novak, and made a quick stop and jump shot. 12 to 4.
This offensive was simple and effective. Peja can play the No. 4 position, and Wang Jun cannot let him go to pursue him.
Wang Jun beat Rasu alone, missed a three-pointer after taking a step back, and Da Ben got a rebound.
Paul misplaced Novak again, attracting Chandler to make up for defense and scored the basket, and Daben made a close-range open shot. 12 to 6.
Big Ben is average in size and has a normal speed. It is not easy to jump up and receive a dunk directly. The score depends entirely on picking up the bargain. After scoring the goal, he looked fierce and clenched his fists and returned to defense. As if he was on the piston, he only received sporadic applause.
No one thinks the goal is beautiful, and this way of showing toughness cannot attract fans.
Wang Jun ran to the bottom line without the ball cover. Calderon passed Lewis first, but the latter did not give Wang Jun, but gave Chandler the empty cut. The latter took the ball and turned around, jumped up from close range to prepare for a dunk, and the big-ben thug made a foul.
Chandler scored one of two free throws, 13 to 6.
Near the basket, Dabien's defense is also normal, and the height difference between the two is too obvious.
The Bulls have always controlled the situation. Wang Jun plays very nimblely, finds opportunities to fight alone with his teammates, and constantly cooperates with his teammates.
He and Chandler are the main attack points, and others have opened up opportunities.
Da Ben was withdrawn from the basket by Wang Jun and gave Chandler a good scoring opportunity. Da Ben went out and went slow to shoot directly, or played Rasu alone, which was difficult to prevent.
In 8 minutes, Big Ben was substituted for a second foul and Scott sent to Magloire.
Manager Hornets thought he had made a profit by introducing him as a substitute for 4 million, but soon found out that this was also a loss-making business. He was cheated by Magloire's agent.
After being seriously injured, his athletic ability is not as good as before, and he can only defend by height. He averages only 32 points and 4 rebounds per game, and lacks offensive ability.
Skeles immediately replaced Chandler, Ammondson played the cameo center, and Barnes played the cameo power forward with the game, playing the small ball tactics.
Lewis's form was not the best just now, so he was much more relaxed when he was playing with the ball, and stayed on the court to make a three-point shooting point to find the feeling. Barnes's moves to the pick-and-roll faster. West gave it to Wang Jun, so he could break through with the defense defender.
Barnes has a problem. He doesn't like to chase opponents very much. He is very active in changing defenses and likes one-on-one, which just targets the characteristics of Hornets players who like to play misplaced.
Wang Jun played in the first quarter, scoring 16 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Paul scored 8 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists, and the star of the player was better than Wang Jun, leading the Bulls 34-22 lead.
The two sides sent substitutes in the second quarter. The Bulls are Watson, Adrian, Hill, Barnes, and Ammondson's small ball lineup.
The Bulls lack height in the inside, but the Hornets have no attack power in the inside. They have two blue-collar workers, including Magloire and Ryan Bowen. Former Rockets player Bowen is probably one of the worst NBA offense players. He can only defend.
The small forward is Julian White, the 13th pick in the first round, with a height and weight of 102 kg, outstanding physical fitness, and a jump shot that is not reliable enough.
The Hornets' offense mainly relies on the outside line Janero Pago and Bunchi Wells. The substitutes are not strong, which is also the reason why they are not favored.
Wells is already a veteran of the league and still has a good impact. When he meets Adrian, he meets his opponent. Adrian weighs even bigger than him. He is not afraid of people with a big butt. In the joint defense system, he is responsible for defending the low post and protecting the inside.
Barnes defended Wells against breakouts but not against shots, and he played very smartly. Wells shot continuously.
During the offense, the Bulls players pulled away. Watson and Ammondson played pick-and-roll and showed their breakthrough ability. Magloyl broke through when he came out of defense. After not coming out of pick-and-roll, he stopped and jumped directly.
Skeles admired Watson's style very much and arranged tactics for him. The 10-day contract worker was lucky enough to meet "Bo Le" and stood firm in the Bulls.
Bulls manager Paxson no longer intends to sign ups, and will let Watson stay until the end of the season. Not too surprised he can still play in the playoffs.
Watson, Hill and Barnes guaranteed the offensive firepower of the substitute, and the gap widened to 20 points.
Scott had to replace Paul early, and the Hornets' substitute point guard was Pago, who won the championship with the Bulls. The organization was too poor.
The Bulls began to shrink their defense line, and the two defenders on the defense field made breakthroughs. Although they failed to fully defend themselves, they also maintained their advantage with their own offense.
Six minutes later, Wang Jun and Lewis came back, and the Bulls immediately scored 11-2, widening the score difference to 25 points.
The Bulls' small ball tactics were very good, but Scott was reluctant to compete with the Bulls, and kept letting West play No. 4, with the center on the blue-collar worker, and Da Ben and Maglouil shared their playing time.
Scott had poor adaptability on the spot. There was no adjustment in the whole first half, nor did he have targeted tactics. He just arranged people to defend, just like he did on the Nets back then. In addition to small forward Peja's three-pointer than Jefferson, the lineup completely replicated the original Nets tactics.
Paul couldn't pass the ball to his teammates to make them feel comfortable to score, and the Hornets' offense was in trouble.
They are such a strange team. Sometimes they can spit out blood when they fight, such as against the Suns, which doesn't look like a team of the same level. However, when they encounter teams that are good at defending high pick-and-rolls, the Hornets will struggle on the offensive end.
To put it bluntly, they rely too much on Paul and West's performance. If the two play well, the team will win, and if the two perform poorly, it will be difficult to win. This is different from the Suns. Even if the Suns are not on the way, Stadameier, Marion, Dior, Bale, and Barbosa are enough for their opponents to have a drink.
In the second half, the Hornets still couldn't open the offensive end. Wang Jun and Barnes followed closely, and they disrupted their shooting rhythm.
Paul scored 20 points and 8 assists in the third quarter, and performed well, but everyone else was defended, especially the center almost scored. Da Ben could not play Chandler and Ammondson, and his opponents could foul him in a misplaced manner and give him free throws, which fully demonstrated his ability to cheat the team.
West scored only 8 points and 5 rebounds, made 4 of 12 shots and no free throws.
tn*t Radio Barkley said: "If Wang Jun doesn't make the best defensive team this year, I think this award can be cancelled. Today, Paul played against one-on-one, he scored only two goals, West played against one-on-one, and only two goals in seven. Both of them were greatly reduced in efficiency. Wang Jun also assisted in defense and sent two blocks and one steal."
Barkley is not the only one who is optimistic about Wang Jun. Mike Bryn of espn has praised Wang Jun's defense many times. Jeff Van Gundy, who has been a commentator at espn this season, praised Wang Jun's defense even more.
Zhang Heli sighed: "I think after this season, no one will say that Wang Jun is strong in offense and weak in defense. His defensive role is very obvious."
Yu Jia smiled and said, "No, I think he is still strong in attack and weak in defense, because the offense is too strong."
