NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker

Chapter 134 – Be Fast, Be Precise, Be Ruthless

[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】

After the end of the Christmas game, the All-Star voting will officially begin.

At the end of the first round of voting, Zhang Jun, with his fiery popularity, fans in Portland, Los Angeles and other areas, coupled with the love of Chinese fans, went straight to the third place in the western striker and the sixth place in the total votes.

Ahead of him are Carmelo Anthony of the Nuggets and Tim Duncan of the Spurs, and behind him are Dirk Nowitzki of the Mavericks and Carlos Boozer of the Utah Jazz.

Zhang Jun has the possibility of being selected to the All-Star team in his rookie season.

Originally, Zhang Jun thought that he might be the only player among the rookies this year who had a chance to make it to the All-Star, but he didn’t expect that there was someone more fierce than him.

“Yi Jianlian actually ranks second in the Eastern Conference in the draft rankings! And it is also the third in the Eastern Conference’s total votes, second only to LeBron James of the Cavaliers and Kevin Garnett of the Celtics?! “

Zhang Jun looked at the model lake.

This season, Yi Jianlian averaged 10 points and 6 rebounds per game, and his shooting percentage was 43%.

Compared with the previous life, Yi Jianlian’s statistics and performance have improved slightly, and the relationship with his teammates is not as alienated as in the previous life.

However, the Bucks’ record is only 10 wins and 20 losses, ranking second to last in the Eastern Conference. With this record and the data of Yi Jianlian, can they enter the All-Star Game?

And he is very likely to appear as the starting power forward, which is indeed a bit unconvincing.

No, seeing that Yi Jianlian’s All-Star votes almost surpassed him, Garnett was the first to jump out and say to the media.

“Yi Jianlian is the darling of Chinese fans. Yao Ming relied on this to squeeze out Shaquille O’Neal and become the starting center in the Western Conference.”

In other words,,,..version. 】

“Yi Jianlian’s performance this season is not worthy of being an All-Star. His statistics and the record of the Bucks are completely unable to support his selection to this level of lineup.”

“This is cheating!”

“If Yi Jianlian really entered the All-Star team with such statistics and performance in his rookie season, it would be a shame to the entire NBA!”

………

What Garnett said in the interview quickly spread throughout the United States and the entire world, and everyone was scrambling to discuss the situation.

Chinese fans naturally condemned it online.

“We sent Yi Jianlian to the All-Stars based on our ability, one person, one vote, why can’t we go in?

“This is a contempt for the rules, this is a violation of human rights, is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature.”

………

Union Office.

David Stern is naturally aware of the issues that have been discussed in the United States recently.

“This is really a very troublesome matter. On the one hand, it is restricted by the rules, on the other hand, it is the face of the alliance, and more importantly, we are now actively exploring the Chinese market.”

It is precisely because of the last reason that when Yao Ming averaged 13 points and 8 rebounds per game and became the starting center of the Western Conference All-Star, even though he encountered protests and targets from countless players, David Stern still firmly let the opponent take the Western Conference. The identity of the All-Star starting center debuted.

Fortunately, Yao Ming later proved that he was indeed worthy of the title of the No. 1 center in the Western Conference, so this matter was overturned and no one mentioned it again.

In the end, I didn’t expect that Yi Jianlian of the Bucks would come to fix this again.

Adam Silver also felt the difficulty of this problem.

“The first problem we should solve is that according to the current All-Star voting, Yi Jianlian has a high probability of being selected as an All-Star, and he will also make his debut, so whether we should let him appear or not.”

“This is something that has to be addressed.”

David Stern shook his head decisively and said: “This is absolutely impossible. A player who averaged only 26 minutes per game and only 10 points and 6 rebounds per game entered the All-Star. This is a slap in the face of the entire league. , the players will definitely be very uncomfortable.”

“If he passed Yi Jianlian and entered the All-Star this year, then next year and the year after that, will he enter the All-Star consecutively?”

“What about future players following suit?”

Yi Jianlian is not Yao Ming after all, and David Stern knows this very well.

Yao Ming was the No. 1 pick or a player who landed in the NBA after the Rockets and the league management struggled for it. His strength back then was much stronger than the current Yi Jianlian, and the Chinese market in that era was also in urgent need of development.

So David Stern can turn a blind eye to make Yao Ming an All-Star center, but Yi Jianlian can’t.

Adam Xiao Hua nodded, this is indeed a link that cannot be let go.

“Then we have to consider how to solve the adverse effects of Yi Jianlian’s failure to be selected as an All-Star.”

David Stern thought the same way. He subconsciously glanced at Adam Silver beside him, and asked curiously, “What’s your opinion?”

Adam Silver thought for a while and said: “Re-establish the rules!”

“In this way, it can prevent Yi Jianlian from being selected as an All-Star this time, and it can also eliminate the possibility of such a thing happening in the future.”

David Stern nodded in satisfaction and said, “So, how to change the rules?”

Adam Silver had already thought about this question, so facing David Stern’s question at this time, he directly talked about it.

“The first point is that all rookies in the NBA cannot be selected for the All-Stars, and at most they can only participate in the Rookie All-Star Game.”

“The second point is to re-adjust the proportion of fans’ votes. The weight of fans’ votes is cut in half, reduced to 50%, and the other 50% is 25% each from players and media votes.”

“In this way, Yi Jianlian will not be able to enter the All-Star Game anyway, and it will be difficult for him to enter the All-Star Game only with the votes of Chinese fans after the reform of the voting mechanism in the future.”

David Stern nodded, this is indeed a very good way of reform.

“It’s just that Zhang Jun won’t be able to enter this year’s All-Star Game.”

Hearing this, Adam Silver frowned slightly, and only then remembered that there was another player in this year’s rookie who was selected as an All-Star.

Zhang Jun is definitely the hottest new star in the league right now, and he is also highly sought after by the fans. If he can’t make the All-Star, it will be a very big loss, and it will easily cause trouble in Los Angeles and Portland. The dissatisfaction of local fans.

“That’s a real problem.”

David Stern thought for a while and said, “So, how about leaving out the first one?”

“We still give every rookie in the future the opportunity to be an All-Star in the first year, but in terms of the voting mechanism, the voting mechanism has changed from being completely dominated by fans to half of the weight of fan votes, and the remaining half is evenly distributed to all teams in the league. coaches, players and media.”

………

January 4th.

The league announced the new All-Star ballot rules. Because of this reason, Yi Jianlian fell directly from the third place in the total number of votes in the East to the twelfth place. His hope of entering the All-Star has been very slim.

And no matter how the fans behind increase their votes, because half of the weight is in the hands of coaches, players and the media, it is very difficult for Yi Jianlian to enter the All-Star Game.

On the contrary, Zhang Jun has benefited from this rule, because his fan base is not so large. On the contrary, the votes of players, coaches and media give him an advantage.

…

January 7.

The Trail Blazers challenged the Phoenix Suns away.

The two teams belonging to the league’s first offensive echelon finally met together.

Kenny Smith did not forget to remind: “As of now, the Suns averaged 111.4 points per game in the season, and the Trail Blazers averaged 111.1 points per game.”

“The two teams rank third and fourth in the team’s scoring average. They belong to the only four teams in the league that can average more than 110 points per game.”

Barkley analyzed: “Although both teams can score, there are very obvious differences in offense and play on the court.”

“The Suns are the most unique fast-playing whirlwind in the league. They rely on the mobility and flexibility of all players in the team and the assist king Nash who is very good at finding favorable opportunities in the fast-break, so they play a very fast and efficient bombardment tactic. .”

“The Trail Blazers are the top five teams in the league with a high proportion of personal offense. Both Zhang Jun and Luo Yin have a lot of individual ball-handling singles rounds, so the team defending them needs the ability of single defense. Very good player.”

on the pitch.

The big screen at the scene quickly displayed the starting lineups of the two teams.

Trail Blazers regular starting lineup.

Suns starting lineup: point guard Steve Nash, shooting guard Lagabel, small forward Sean Marion, power forward Boris Diao and center Amare Stoudemire.

Game start.

Joel Przybilla helped the Blazers jump off the possession of the first possession and the Blazers attacked.

Facing Lagabel’s defense, Luo Yin chose to make a mid-range shot after a pick-and-roll with Aldridge.

Although Lagabel is only 196cm tall and his wingspan is not very good, he is a very entangled and strong defender. He often uses tearing defenses to prevent the efficiency of offensive players from plummeting.

So Luo Yin took the initiative to ask for Aldridge’s pick-and-roll during the offense and chose a misplaced offense.

The Suns do not double-team or switch defenses in every pick-and-roll. They are limited entirely by the defensive ability of the players, and they do not have any defensive tactics at all. They have long been accustomed to the easy scoring of their opponents.

[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】

Switch offense.

Boris Diao served the baseline ball, and Nash advanced quickly with the ball. It took him only three seconds to cross the half.

Amare Stoudemire raised the pick-and-roll, and Nash used the pick-and-roll to quickly break through to the basket.

Because Amare Stoudemire and Nash are both very flexible players, and after the two break through, they use an offensive tactic of simultaneously double-lane and fast down, so the flexibility of the defensive players is extremely tested.

Jarrett Jack and Joel Pulzbila can only choose to switch defenses, because the latter is not a flexible big center and cannot solve this kind of misplaced defense at all.

Joel Pulzbila knew the price he would face after switching defenses like this, so he could only hold up his hands to block Nash’s passing vision and passing route.

But Nash suddenly made a sudden stop, which scared Joel Przybilla to think that the opponent was about to shoot, so he rushed over.

Nash hit the ground and Stoudemire took the ball into the air.

boom!

A domineering dunk scored.

“I can’t prevent it.”

“The Suns’ offensive pick-and-roll tactics, the Trail Blazers can’t defend at all.”

“If you switch defenses, you will be singled out by dislocations. If you don’t switch defenses, you will face Nash breaking into the penalty area. There is no help defense from tall insiders.”

Nate McMillan frowned tightly. He really wanted to praise the opponent’s coach Mike D’Antoni. This offensive tactic was really outstanding.

Stoudemire runs a high pick-and-roll while taking out inside defender Joel Przybilla.

Nash launched an offense very quickly after using the pick-and-roll, and he was a great threat to break into the basket, but because Joel Przibira was pulled to the outside by Stoudemire, there was no big center player to protect the frame.

If Nate McMillan deploys Zhang Jun or Aldridge on the weak side to cover the defense, then Nash will pass the ball immediately.

In other words, the Suns’ offensive style will definitely have an open offensive player on the field. Unless the Trail Blazers have a very strong rotational defensive ability and can always quickly keep up with the Suns’ transfer ball, otherwise it will be difficult to defend. down the other side.

“We need to run.”

Zhang Jun yelled at his teammates.

Joel Pulzbila shook his head helplessly and said: “But I’m not as flexible as Stoudemire. I can’t keep up with him and I can’t make a screen. He and Nash’s pick-and-roll can completely trick me.”

“Then don’t go out to defend, Joel.” Zhang Jun said affirmatively.

Joel Pulzbila was very surprised and said puzzled: “How can Nash limit the pick-and-roll if he doesn’t follow the defense? Could it be possible to let him shoot after the pick-and-roll?”

Jarrett Jack reminded: “Nash’s shots from outside the three-point line are very accurate, and it is definitely not a wise choice to prevent him from shooting.”

Zhang Jun agreed and said: “I will make up defenses in advance. Joel’s pace is slow and he can’t keep up with them, but I can.”

“But that leaves your defender empty,” Aldridge said.

Zhang Jun naturally knew this and said: “So, I need all of us to run to help teammates fill in the defensive vacancies. Only in this way can we prevent the Suns from attacking.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. They would rather do something on the court than let Nash and Stoudemire unscrupulously conduct pick-and-roll attacks, whether it is useful or not.

[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】

The game continues.

Luo Yin singled Raja Bell again, and still asked Aldridge for a pick-and-roll. This time he made a breakthrough layup.

Now that the season has progressed, Luo Yin’s personal offense is getting better and better, with an average of 22 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and he also ranks thirteenth in the Western Conference All-Star voting.

It’s a pity that there are too many top guards in the West, including Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Tracy McGregor, Steve Nash, Chris Paul, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker. Firmly occupying the list, it should be very difficult for Luo Yin to be selected as the starter of the All-Star Game this year.

But he has gradually demonstrated the ability and temperament of an All-Star player, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com may be selected by the Western Star coach as a substitute All-Star.

Even if it doesn’t work, Zhang Jun can feel that next season at most, Luo Yin will definitely be in the All-Star Western Conference.

“But if Luo Yin and I can both make the All-Star this year, then the Trail Blazers will be the first player in many years to be selected as an All-Star.”

The Suns attack.

Nash and Stoudemire continued to play the same high pick-and-roll, but this time Zhang Jun’s supplementary defense surprised everyone.

Fortunately, Nash has a very good sense of passing. After seeing Zhang Jun confirming to double-team, he immediately passed the ball to Lagabel on the weak side.

Luo Yin’s defense was very quick, and he rushed out immediately.

Compared with Nash, Lagabel’s passing ability is much worse.

This is the main reason why Zhang Jun dared to let his teammates boldly jump out and rotate defense.

It is of course impossible to limit Nash with such a defensive tactic, and he will definitely find an open teammate at the first time, but unfortunately not every player in your Suns is Nash, so it is impossible for everyone Players have such passing ability and passing awareness.

As long as the first pass is defended, the speed and efficiency of subsequent passes will drop a lot, so the Trail Blazers can easily defend this round of offense.

Lagabel hesitated holding the ball for a while, and he didn’t dare to take the risk of passing the ball, and the offensive opportunities on the field quickly disappeared.

This picture made Nash stomp his feet from the outside line.

“You pass the ball diagonally Dior!”

“Just twist the little hand like this, pass the ball through the gap between the two, the speed must be fast, accurate and ruthless.”
