Almighty Athlete Chapter 415: Drawing
The U.S. team suddenly switched to several shooting experts, apparently preparing to shoot a three-pointer.
There are 29 seconds left in the game. The two sides evenly scored. If a three-pointer was made at the last moment, it would be a quasi-killer, and the advantage of 3 points is enough to make the US team undefeated. The advantages.
"Anti-three points!" After seeing the substitutions of the US team, the Chinese players reached a consensus as soon as possible.
The veteran Billups dribble forward. He carefully observed the position of everyone in the Chinese team. I saw that everyone in the Chinese team was close to the opponent. Obviously, he was preparing for the American team’s shot. .
"Hehe!" A sneer appeared on Billups's face. At the next moment, he suddenly passed the ball and threw the ball to Gordon.
Gordon didn't stay after receiving the ball. He directly chose to break through, and a change of direction rushed into the three-point line.
"Breakthrough? Isn't it a three-pointer? Or is it just a trap?"
The inside player's defense was quickly put in place. Gordon's height was not enough to meet the big man for a layup. I saw his hand flick and passed the ball to Granger. Granger did not stay after receiving the ball, and directly threw the ball to Durant.
"Sure enough, it is still Durant! I guessed it would be him. The others are all in the guise. Finally, it is Durant who will come to perform this three-point tactic!" Deng Huade off the field is thanking himself for guessing By the way, Durant accelerated and broke into the inside.
"Don't make a three-pointer? Or pass in order to attract the defense?" Deng Huade thought with surprise.
"People who are optimistic about themselves!" The players of the Chinese team did not relax their vigilance outside the three-point line. At this time, they originally put two points instead of three points.
Durant didn't pass the ball. He directly faked the shot into the basket, pulled a layup, and scored two points.
"The United States asked for a two-point? There are 15 seconds left in the game, which means that the United States team spent 14 seconds on this attack, which is not a fast two-point? What does the old coach want to do, 15 seconds? The time is enough to play a complete tactical cooperation, does he still want to be killed?" Deng Huad thought silently.
92 to 90, the American team leads by two points, and the Chinese team has a 15-second offensive time, which means that the Chinese team can arrange a three-point tactics to kill the American team. Even if there is no chance of a three-pointer, a two-pointer can even the score and drag it into overtime.
In front of the TV, the commentators are also analyzing the American team’s approach, and they can’t understand why coach K made such a tactical arrangement.
The American team originally had 29 seconds of offensive time. If a 24 second buzzer attack is played, the Chinese team will have only 5 seconds of time. After the World Championship is suspended, it is not possible to serve in the center line, so these 5 seconds include the time to bring the ball to the frontcourt. Therefore, in the World Championship, the 5 seconds can hardly play any tactical cooperation, which is generally the dribble. After the midfield, pass a shot.
But now, the US team has left the Chinese team for 15 seconds, which is enough to play a complete tactical cooperation. A complete tactical coordination of 15 seconds and a rushed shot of 5 seconds can be said to be two different offenses, and the probability of scoring is even different.
That means that the US team left China for 15 seconds, which is also equal to the Chinese team’s chance, a chance of a final lore.
......
"15 seconds is enough to make a complete attack. Why don't the US team press the ball anymore? Are they not worried about getting lore?"
"The Chinese team is not without a three-point shooter, and in the Olympics two years ago, Zhang Guan successfully used a three-point shot to kill the United States. Today's Zhang Guan feels hot, he has won 50 Points, maybe a three-pointer lore will be presented again!"
"Does it mean that the US team is going to encounter Waterloo again? It is really unimaginable that the finals of two consecutive competitions were slayed by the same person."
On the bench, Deng Huade did not arrange any tactics, just let everyone open up the space and hand over the ball to Zhang Guan. On the side of the US team, the players of the US team were surrounded by Shashevsky, and Sha Shefsky kept drawing on the tactical board.
The timeout is over and the player comes on. At this point the audience had already stood up, waiting for the Chinese team's final attack.
"Will there be a lore?" Everyone with this question invariably turned their attention to Zhang Guan, and the stadium was filled with a repressive atmosphere.
The Chinese team served, basketball just passed to Zhang Guan, and Eric Gordon threw himself up.
"Are you forced to defend at the court? This is not a wise choice. The Chinese team used to be really afraid of the tight at the court, but since Zhang Guan, the tight at the court has no effect and the Zhang Guan breakthrough After that, it will cause a lot of play in a short period of time. Does the US team think that Gordon can block Zhang Guan?"
"beep......" At this moment, the referee's whistle suddenly sounded, instantly interrupting the tense atmosphere at the scene.
"Foul, the US team took the initiative to foul, they sent Zhang Guan to the free throw line!" exclaimed on the side of the scene.
Eric Gordon rushed up, but instead of pressing to defend Zhang Guan, he directly fouled Zhang Guan and sent him to the free throw line.
"I get it, coach K is a good figure. First, he needs a two-pointer, and then directly sends Zhang Guan to the free throw line to let Zhang Guan take the free throw. If Zhang Guan makes two free throws, at most the two sides evenly split, but The ball is in the hands of the US team, and the remaining time is enough for the US team to arrange a tactical cooperation. If Zhang Guan misses a goal, the US team will have the lead and the ball! This tactical arrangement is much better than leaving the Chinese team with 5 seconds of offensive time!"
"Yes, instead of leaving your opponent with 5 seconds, let yourself take a 15 second offensive power so that the initiative can be controlled by yourself! But I guess only the US team dare to use this kind of active foul. Tactics."
In the basketball game, free throws are obviously the least difficult scoring method. Face shooting and ignoring defense, the probability of scoring is much higher than any other offensive means. In the view of many coaches, it is a mistake to catch a foul and send the opponent to the free throw line. That is why, in addition to the special "shark-cutting tactics", few people in the basketball game will take the initiative to commit foul tactics.
In terms of shooting percentage, it is normal for the pitcher to shoot more than 90% of the free throws. The average player's free throw percentage is more than 80%. If it is not good, 70% of the free throws are acceptable, like Howard. A 50% free throw percentage can already be used for hacking.
And in ordinary offense, whether it is positional or sports, the hit rate can be 50% is already very high, like O'Neill, the world's top insider, the hit rate is only close to 60%, the average Outside players are also shooting 40%.
is also a 50% hit rate, which is an efficient performance in ordinary offense, but it becomes a loophole in free throws. From this point, it can also be explained that free throws are indeed much easier than other scoring methods. So no one will make the opponent's offense easy, and make their own offense difficult, which is one reason why almost no one will choose to take the initiative to foul.
But Shashevsky dared to use this tactic, and the American team dared to use this tactic, because they firmly believed that as long as the ball is in the hands of the American team, they also have the ability to score another two points. Moreover, if Zhang Guan fails to score a goal, the US team will make a big profit.
Zhang Guan made two free throws and the score became 92. Gordon's foul just now was very decisive, and the time went only 1 second. At this time, there is a little more than 14 seconds left before the end of the game, which is enough for the US team to complete a tactical cooperation.
"It's the American team's turn to attack, this time it must be a lore! Durant, Granger, Gordon, Billups, they all have the ability to make three-pointers!"
"Why use a three-pointer? One two-point is enough. The last time was 29 seconds. The Chinese team still has time to make a comeback, but this time it was only 14 seconds. You can win!"
"It’s worthy of being coach K. A proactive foul not only puts the initiative in his own hands, but also flips the advantages and disadvantages."
"Not really, but only the American team dare to use this method! And the opponent is the Chinese team, instead of Spain or Argentina, the old k coach will also choose to defend well. But the Chinese team and the United States The gap between the teams is really big. If it weren’t for Zhang Guan’s magical three-pointers, the Chinese team would have lost!”
14 seconds, 92 to 92, the US team holds the ball, and the victorious balance is flipped again. We are still discussing whether the Zhang Guan can once again kill the fans of the US team. They have turned their directions and they began to discuss instead. From the US team, who will complete this lore.
......
Billups has just received the serve, Zhang Guan has already rushed over.
"Zhang Guan? Pressing the defense? He is delaying my dribble through halftime! A smart choice." Billups immediately realized this.
14-second offensive time, not too long, not too short, can almost play a tactical cooperation, if the time of the early dribble is delayed, then the later running tactics will definitely be more hasty and score The probability will also drop.
Billups did not rush to pass the ball. He was worried that he would be cut off by Zhang Guan. Although it would delay some time, he still waited for his teammate to answer before passing the ball to his teammate.
"Here!" Durant ran directly to the three-point line and received a ball. How did the U.A. keep up with it? He knows that this ball is crucial and determines the life and death of the Chinese team.
The other players of the US team are running non-stop, and Durant stopped the ball. Obviously he waited for the last minute before taking the shot.
However, at this moment, Zhang Guan suddenly abandoned Billups and rushed over.
"Band ahead!" Durant was slightly surprised. He stopped the ball without hesitation and raised it high above his head.
"Billups' position is empty! Good opportunity..." Durant waved the ball to Billups.
And it was at this time that Zhang Guan was like a shell, left from Durant, and rushed towards Billups.
"How could a person be faster than the ball!" Durant sneered, and Billups received the ball.
"Shoot a shot?" Billups did not hesitate and straightly got up for a jump shot. At the same time, the afterglow of his eyes saw Zhang Guan flying.
Zhang Guan's people haven't caught up with Billups yet, but people have jumped ahead of time.
"It's so fast, and there is such a high height, I will be covered! I understand, Zhang Guan deliberately abandoned me, he deliberately let me shoot, and then prepared to cover me!" At this moment, Billups made an accurate judgment.
Billups is the oldest man in the Dream Nine team. At 34, he is already very good in statistics, but has already passed the peak of his career. Billups’ greatest strength is its stability. By comparison, his body, bouncing and speed can only be regarded as excellent, not top-notch. Now that he is younger, his bouncing and speed have declined, but he is also getting smarter.
Last shot, the test is not who’s head is smarter, but who’s shot is more accurate. Billups’ smart head and rich experience can’t help him improve the accuracy of his shot, but his age It has become his biggest enemy. If he switched to Billups five years ago, he would definitely throw this ball without hesitation, but now Billups, he can’t jump high, and his speed is slow. He knows that if he shoots himself, Eighteen out of ten will be covered by Zhang Guan.
"Pass!" Billups waved. Instead of shooting, he threw the ball to Granger in the air.
......
Granger never imagined that he would be the one who completed the final attack. Although he was the Pacers' leader, his status in the Mengjiu team was more general. As a small forward, he wants to compete with Durant, Iguodala, Rudy Gay, and facing these three opponents, he has no advantage.
Durant is the core of the Dream Nine team, Granger does not need to compare; Iguodala is more versatile than Granger, this all-round fighter player is deeply loved by Shashevsky, So Iguodala can occupy another starting striker position. Rudy Gay is about the same height and weight as Granger, but Gay is younger, stronger and more energetic than Granger.
Granger's offensive methods are mainly shots, but he is not the kind of Ray Allen's cold three-point killer. He needs the ball and the tactics specially formulated for him to have a stable play. However, in the Dream Nine team, it is impossible to use Granger as the core of the tactics. The Dream Nine team really needs the kind of killer who wants to make a three-pointer. So many times.
This time, Granger’s main task is only to attract defense, so he has been standing outside the three-point line, especially when the ball has reached Durant~IndoMTL.com~ Granger has guessed, Then there is nothing about myself.
However, Durant passed the ball to Billups.
Granger still doesn't think it has much to do with him, because Billups is completely empty, and he must have taken the ball directly.
But Billups was worried that he would be covered, so he passed the ball to Granger.
Granger was completely unprepared, and then jumped up and shot.
......
"Granger, 3-pointer! Out of the box, rebound!"
Carrefour rushed over and caught the ball, but his position was not suitable for immediate offense.
But time is running out. Love is very dedicated and chooses to dunk directly.
"Papa!" Waving roughly, the ball was directly covered.
is generally experienced after all. After he didn't grab the rebound, he immediately blocked the offensive line of Le Fu. Le Fu forced the attack and could only be covered.
Almost everyone rushed towards the ball, and the scene suddenly went into chaos.
"I got it!" Iguodala grabbed the ball in his hand.
"Beep!"
A flute sounded at the same time, this is the end of the game.
"The game is over, 92 to 92, draw, overtime to play! (to be continued.)
