Almighty Athlete Chapter 162: Behind slap, lag


In the second half of the game, the US team adjusted its personnel, Prince was sent on the field, and Kidd stayed on the court with him. Shashevsky obviously hoped that Kidd could give Pryn Spurs passed a few good shots, allowing him to achieve the goal of scoring.

The Chinese team also changed to Zhang Guan, and it was the captain of the United States that he played against, Kidd.

For the first attack in the second half, Zhang Guan directly held the ball through the half. Kidd had just ushered in. Zhang Guan accelerated abruptly. Taking advantage of Kidd’s instability, he rushed directly into the US team’s basket Basket.

"The speed of Zhang Guan is so fast!" Bosh, who was resting on the bench, looked at Paul beside him, and then asked: "Who do you think is faster with Zhang Guan?"

"But the speed of this ball can be very fast, but it is not an extreme speed. I can do this speed." Paul thought about it carefully, and then said: "But if you fight for the limit If it’s speed, that’s not necessarily true, maybe Zhang Guan is faster, maybe I’m faster, no one knows it!”

"But with the Zhang Guan's starting speed, perhaps no one in the NBA can do it." Wade said from the side.

"Startup speed? Not even you?" Bosh asked his friend.

Wade shook his head, and Bosh asked, "What if it was two years ago?"

Two years ago, Wade won the NBA championship. At that time, he had not suffered a big injury, so the explosive force was much stronger than now. However, I saw Wade thought carefully and shook his head again.

"Oh? Zhang Guan is so powerful! Are you ashamed of yourself?" Bosh asked in surprise.

"That's just the start speed." Wade explained immediately: "Don't forget that he is a track and field sprinter and the fastest runner in the world. The start reaction time of the sprinter is the shortest Yes, so I can’t compare with the start up but it’s normal.”

"I always feel that Jason (Kidd) is a little bit hung up against Zhang Guan! If he is ten years younger, no, even if he is five years younger, I would not worry about him, but now he does ..." Paul said with some concern.

Kidd is arguably the most comprehensive point guard in the NBA, including his defense. Between 1999 and 2007, Kidd was either in the NBA All-Defensive First Team, or was in the All-Defensive Second Team, and he didn't fall. His defense was once called a "nightmare" by James in the rookie season. If we only talk about the defensive ability, the peak Kidd must have exploded his juniors. If Kidd is the strongest defender among top point guards, perhaps not many people question it.

It’s just that Kidd is now thirty-five years old. His body is not as strong as he was when he was young. The key is that he can’t keep up. For an outside defender, he loses his pace and can’t keep up. It is not possible to face a fast opponent, but it can also be dealt with, but when facing a fast opponent, there is often no way. So now Kidd frequently becomes Paul's "cash machine", and in the future, he will also become the cash machine of Ross, Westbrook and others.

And the fastest person in the world is Zhang Guan. At Kidd’s current speed, it is completely Zhang Guan. Even Kidd’s defense experience is extremely rich, even if Kidd’s defense method is very smart, but In the face of absolute speed, he still seemed so pale and weak.

If you put it in the usual time, the opponent player will be exploded. Someone inside will definitely make up for defense, but today the US team is really not defensive, so Zhang Guan only needs to pass Kidd to get to the basket. Complete the score.

A breakthrough made two points. The American team obviously did not care about these. They are still obsessed with making the ball for Prince and let him finish scoring.

Passing, passing, passing, the ball went around, and in Kidd’s hand, Kidd’s eyes looked at James on one side, but his arm was swung in the other direction, a one-handed throw Passing, sent the ball to the reverse of Prince.

This is a pass without watching people, and the pass is very sudden, the direction of the pass is very concealed, no one would think that Kidd's pass to Prince.

"A beautiful pass!" Kidd secretly said, but at the same time he found that the Zhang Guan that should have been marking him disappeared in front of him.

"What about Zhang Guan?" Kidd froze slightly, but heard deafening cheers erupt from the scene.

Zhang Guan judged the direction of Kidd's pass. He quickly moved to the side of Prince and snatched the ball from the moment Prince received the ball.

"What? Stealed? How did he know that I want to pass to Prince!" Kidd was shocked. This time the pass, he has done very concealed, he did not go to see the catch Prince used a "blind pass" instead. It was supposed that Zhang Guan's attention should be drawn to the other side, but Zhang Guan saw his passing intentions.

"Why? Is it blind? Or does he really have such a good sense?" Kidd thought.

Of course, Zhang Guan does not have such a good consciousness, and he is not blind, but the "God perspective" has helped him.

This time, Kidd didn’t go to see Prince, but Prince was in an excellent position to attack, and after Prince reached for the ball, Kidd immediately waved his arm, so Zhang Guan immediately judged that the goal of Kidd's pass was Prince.

In the one-on-one defense, the player's attention is often focused on the opponent player. As for the position of other opponents, they are often handed over to their teammates to mark, and whoever misses is considered a black pot. But Zhang Guan has a God perspective, he can observe the position and movement of every athlete on the court.

The ball reached the hands of Zhang Guan, and then another one-stop breakthrough. The American team symbolically ran a few steps back into the field, which was considered a defense, and then five people watched Zhang Guan advance the ball.

Next, the US team continued its mission, which was to help Prince score.

However, this process is not very smooth. Kidd is completely at a disadvantage in the match with Zhang Guan. This is not only reflected in the defense will be easily passed by Zhang Guan, but also in the offensive by Zhang Guan. Very tight, lost many opportunities to pass.

And Prince is better at defending than attacking. If James, the ball can reach his hands in a variety of ways, but Prince does not have so much offensive means. He can break through and can shoot, but he does not have a high percentage of hits when someone is marking; he has a solid low post attack skill and has a natural arm length, but the height of 2 meters 06 plays a low post attack on the Chinese team's inside, almost There is no chance of success ~ IndoMTL.com ~ So sometimes, the ball passes to Prince, and he may not be able to convert into a score.

When there were three minutes left in the third quarter, Prince shook the defensive player after receiving the ball, and then used a time difference to make a layup and scored his first two points in the Olympic finals.

"Hoo!" The players from the US team gave him a round of applause at the same time they gave him a deep breath. Prince finally scored, and all players of the US team finally scored.

"It's finally time to play the game." James took a breath and then looked at the score, but his eyes widened in surprise.

"What's the situation? I'm not mistaken! The lagging party turned out to be the US? We lag behind!"

"What's going on? How are we playing, we are falling behind! What happened just now?"

The big screen on the court clearly showed the scores of the two sides at this time, 60 to 65, and the US team was 5 points behind!
