MTL - NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker-Chapter 140 I'm afraid I'm going to be hammered by Yao Ming alone
[NBA: About my reincarnation as Hayate Yasuo]【】
April 19.
Portland, Moda Center.
"Nba200708 season playoffs, the first round officially begins!"
"Tonight is the Portland Trail Blazers vs. Houston Rockets game!"
"Youth Trailblazers will face the Yao-Mai combination!"
Under Kenny Smith's yelling, the emotions of all the fans on the scene were mobilized.
The lights in the Moda Center arena are all dark, only a few follow-up lights are exploring back and forth throughout the arena.
Luo Yin was the first to walk out of the player tunnel amidst the shouts all over the sky. He raised his head and looked at the sky above the home stadium of the Blazers. He was enthusiastic and sincere. He kissed his palm and pointed to the Moda Center.
Aldridge, Joel Pulzbila, Channing Frye, Travis Outlaw, James Jones, Martell Webster, Steve Blake, Vaughn Weaver, Jarrett Jack, Francis, Fred Jones and others appeared one after another.
At the end, the follower lights waited patiently in the player tunnel, and the Portland fans were already screaming and calling Zhang Jun's name.
The DJ on the scene roared: "The last one is from Los Angeles, California, the single-season scoring champion in team history, the best rookie in the nba2007-08 season, the youngest league scoring champion, the first step in California, No. 4, a small forward with a height of 202cm, Zhang Jun!
"
The spotlight quickly moved away from the player tunnel, and then found Zhang Jun who was already sitting on the bench. He jumped up and threw the basketball in his hand to the auditorium, then walked towards his teammates, clapping their hands one by one.
Luo Yin had been waiting for a long time, and the two finally bumped their fists and came up with a thunderbolt and hot knife.
Zhang Jun opened his hands and shouted: "The Blazers!"
Everyone immediately gathered around and shouted: "Tear!"
On-site commentary desk.
Kenny Smith was a little surprised watching the Blazers' pregame preparations.
"This doesn't look like a youth team. Even if the Rockets are the team that is more recognized by everyone, I am afraid they will never have a good time in this round of the series."
Barkley heard the Trail Blazers reporter talk about the culture of the Trail Blazers, and said: "Zhang Jun, Luo Yin, and Aldridge want to create a special team culture for the Trail Blazers."
"At present, the fighting spirit and fighting desire of this team are really good. It seems that their cultural construction has achieved very good results."
"However, the Rockets are not a rookie in the playoffs. They can't win games by relying on culture and fighting spirit. They still have to use their strength to speak on the court."
The big screen at the scene has already displayed the starting lineups of the two teams.
Trail Blazers: Point guard Jarrett Jack, shooting guard Brandon Royon, small forward Jun Zhang, power forward LaMarcus Aldridge and center Joel Przybilla.
Rockets starting lineup: point guard Ralph Alston, shooting guard Tracy McGrady, small forward Shane Battier, power forward Luis Scola and center Yao Ming.
Before the halftime jump ball.
Neither Yao Ming nor Zhang Jun had the intention of walking over to say hello, and they didn't even look at each other the whole time.
After the playoffs, they only have teammates and enemies on the court, nothing else.

call!
The midline referee blew his whistle, and then threw the basketball high into the air.
Yao Ming and Joel Puerzbila each jumped up.
Snapped!
The two clicked on the basketball at the same time, but the basketball flew in the direction of the Rockets.
McGrady jumped up and grabbed the ball.
"Team Rockets attack!"
Ralph Alston advanced with the ball, McGrady received the ball at a 45° angle on the right, and Yao Ming made a false position on the left. The moment McGrady got the ball at a 45° angle to the right, Yao Ming immediately turned around and moved laterally past.
"It's a classic big man play."
"Yao Ming first positioned himself on the right side, forcing the Blazers' defensive center of gravity and attention to move to the right side. At the same time, Joel Puerzibilla, who was defending him, would try his best to block the position, forcing Yao Ming to catch the ball far away. Under the basket."
"But this false position and the change of turning and moving laterally will completely break the Blazers' entire defensive position and pillars. McGrady also passed the ball in the first time, and did not give Joel Przybilla another pass. Yao Ming pushes his chances out of the box."
Kenny Smith commented very appreciatively.
In his opinion, the Rockets coach Rick Adelman deserves to be the league's top offensive coach, and the offensive tactics he developed just in the first round of the playoffs are very beautiful.
Barkley also keenly noticed that Sean Battier, a sharpshooter who averaged 39% of his three-pointers per game this season, was standing on the same side as Yao Ming.
"Transfer the ball from the strong side to the weak side. At this time, the Trail Blazers' Jarrett Jack, Brandon Luo Yin, and Aldridge Yao Ming couldn't help defending. Only Zhang Jun, who stayed on the weak side, still had assistance. Prevent the possibility of double-teaming Yao Ming in the past."
"But he and Battier are on the same side, which means that Zhang Jun has to choose to help defend Yao Ming or let Battier go, and forcefully choose one of the two."
"Either one is chosen, it's not going to be a good decision."
on the pitch.
Zhang Jun chose to attack Yao Ming. He knew very well that if Joel Pulzbilla defended Yao Ming alone in such a deep position, it would be to send points. Let alone Yao Ming, it would be any starting level player in the league. Center, the success rate of scoring in that position is very high.
call!
Yao Ming chose to pass the ball to Battier in the corner, and the latter shot a three-pointer decisively.
Swish!
"Hit!"
"Sean Battier of the Rockets scored the first play of the series."
After the goal, Battier was very calm and immediately sprinted towards the backcourt, shouting to remind his teammates.
"Be optimistic about Zhang Jun and Luo Yin!"
The Blazers attack.
Jarrett Jack advanced very fast with the ball, just to keep Yao Ming from falling. Of course, Yao Ming also worked hard when he returned to the defense, but the speed of his efforts to return to the defense with his body was still not very fast.
Luo Yin received the ball and immediately asked for a pick-and-roll from Aldridge, and then used the pick-and-roll to gain shooting space from the mid-range and shot directly. Zhang Jun quickly cut into the penalty area and competed with Tracy McGrady and Scola for the rebound.
Swish!
The basketball hit steadily, and did not give the three of them a chance to grab rebounds.
Yao Ming just returned to near the free throw line at this moment, but the Blazers had already completed their offense.

"They're playing fast."
Barkley said with certainty.
Kenny Smith remembered last year's playoffs and said: "The coaching staff of the Trail Blazers should have learned a lot from the game between the Jazz and the Rockets last year, so they chose this offensive method."
"Completing the attack quickly can weaken Yao Ming's defensive role in positional warfare, and at the same time make him exhausted and quickly consume physical energy."
"The Trail Blazers should have realized that Yao Ming's offense is hard to defend against, so consuming his physical strength and reducing Yao Ming's playing time is also a good strategy."
The game continues.
The Rockets also want to play the same tactic of Yao Ming's false position. Zhang Jun switched defenses with Luo Yin in advance and said.
"Brandon! You go to defend Battier, watch out for his three-pointers, I'm going to help defend Yao Ming, I'll defend McGrady on the outside, and Jack remembers to help me fill in."
As soon as Zhang Jun finished speaking, Luo Yin immediately switched defenses.
Not only him, but every player in the Trail Blazers will obey Zhang Jun's arrangements and commands on the court. It is clear that Zhang Jun has a keen sense of smell and basketball IQ on the court, which has been proven many times as early as the regular season.
"The Trail Blazers' defense has changed!"
Yao Ming took the ball in the low position again, Zhang Jun immediately rushed to the penalty area fiercely, this time Yao Ming wanted to find Battier, but found that the latter had been firmly marked by Luo Yin.
Yao Ming wanted to fight hard, but Joel Pulzbila had already circled forward to defend, and put his arm into Yao Ming's arm, and the two fought wildly.
The Blazers played a very good defensive round.
Yao Ming quickly passed the ball to the outside, McGrady received the ball, and Jarrett Jack rushed over.
"This is a small anti-big!"
McGrady didn't hesitate, and immediately pulled out his hand after changing direction and breaking into the free throw line.
Swish!
Basketball hits again!
Basketball went very simply.
McGrady squinted his sleeping eyes and pointed at Yao Ming, indicating that the opponent passed a good ball.
"It's okay, it's a good defense."
Zhang Jun encouraged his teammates and said.
The appearance of Yao Ming and McGrady at the same time does put a lot of pressure on the defenders. This is also the benefit of a dual-core partner inside and outside. If you can defend the inside, you can't defend the outside, and vice versa.
So it is pretty good to let McGrady or Yao Ming make shots under the defense. As for them being able to continue to score against the defense, this is completely personal ability and has nothing to do with defense.
"For all-star players like Yao Ming and McGrady, you can't even think about defending him by a few points in a game, let alone this is the playoffs."
Nate McMillan is very satisfied with the defensive choices of the players on the field. Although the Rockets scored the first two goals, the Trail Blazers have come up with the best defense, and they are not a strong defensive team.
On the court, Luo Yin missed his second mid-range shot. Zhang Jun got stuck in the basket with Luis Scola and McGrady crazily. In the end, the three took off at the same time. McGrady and Zhang Jun all hit the basketball.
boom!
The basketball hit the rim and flew out, Luo Yin grabbed the offensive rebound and took off for the second time.

Swish!
This time he made a solid mid-range shot.
"The **** is beautiful."
Luo Yin stretched out his right hand when retreating.
Zhang Jun stretched out his hand and the two clapped tacitly, "You also shot beautifully."
next round.
Yao Ming took the ball again in the paint, Zhang Jun just went out a moment late, and Yao Ming immediately leaned on Joel Pulzbila to make a shot.
In other words,,,..version. 】
Swish!
The small hook made a steady hit.
"Yao Ming's hook is really steady!"
Kenny Smith breathed a sigh of relief. The first game of the series between the Trail Blazers and the Rockets has been played, and the picture is just as most people expected. The Rockets are completely crushing the Trail Blazers in the paint.
Almost every attack of theirs is launched from Yao Ming inside.
But at the same time, to everyone's surprise, the Blazers also made the Rockets suffer a lot on offense. Luo Yin's effective singles and Aldridge's pick-and-roll made Luis Scola, who is also not good at defense, also very headache. .
Luis Scola couldn't be defended, and his feet moved very slowly. Unfortunately, he ran into Luo Yin, who was nicknamed the Yellow Mamba, and his mid-range singles shot was Kobe Bryant and also had a deterrent effect.
"But these are not what surprised me the most. The most surprising thing is that Zhang Jun defended desperately almost the entire defensive round. He is the key figure for the Trail Blazers to frequently double-team Yao Ming."
"Such a picture even reminds me of the report given by all the scouts in the draft meeting before the start of the season, saying that Zhang Jun wasted his defensive talent. Everyone thought he could defend but couldn't. "
"And after this year's playoffs, I believe no one will say that Zhang Jun wasted his defensive talent. He is already the best player in the Trail Blazers' internal and external defense."
In 8 minutes, the two teams played 20:22, and the Trail Blazers were only 2 points behind.
At this time, the Rockets replaced Yao Ming and Luis Scola at the same time, and took Carl Landry and Dikambe Mutombo.
The Trail Blazers also replaced Zhang Jun and took James Jones.
Without Yao Ming, the Blazers' offensive center of gravity began to tilt towards Aldridge.
First, he was the king of mid-range shots in singles, Carl Landry. He hit the opponent with a back-up mid-range jumper, and then another layup that forced him to the basket.
Scoring in two consecutive rounds also gave the Trail Blazers confidence, but Aldridge, who leaned into the inside in the next round, was hit by the 41-year-old veteran Dikembe Mutombo.
Mutombo shook his fingers excitedly on the court. Although he can no longer jump high, his defense, especially his ability to block shots, is still online~www.novelbuddy.com~ So Aldridge then chose all the offensive options Turned into a mid-range shot.
But at the same time McGrady stood up again.
He first shot James Jones with a three-pointer from the outside, and then quickly took the first step into the inside and dunked Aldridge.
Without Yao Ming, the Rockets' offensive focus is entirely on McGrady, and he has finally returned to the familiar infinite fire mode.
"ah!"
McGrady, who scored three goals in a row, roared to the sky on the court, and the Trail Blazers were directly stopped by his sudden outburst.

The first quarter is over.
The Trail Blazers fell behind 30:35.
In the second quarter of the game, Zhang Jun led the bench lineup.
"James Jones, Channing Fry, Steve Blake, Travis Outlaw, Zhang Jun."
"The Trail Blazers' horrible shooting lineup is at it again."
"The Rockets are taking Yao Ming, Bobby Jackson, Chuck Hayes, Carl Landry and Aaron Brooks at this time."
"With the weak inside lineup of the Trail Blazers, Yao Ming's inside threat will be even more terrifying than in the first quarter."
Kenny Smith would love to say this is the playoffs!
All teams will make any effort to defeat their opponents. The Rockets made it clear that they had an insight into the **** interior defense of the Trail Blazers' rotation, so they replaced Yao Ming early in the first quarter and put him in this time period. debut.
"Channing Fry and Travis Outlaw, I'm afraid these two will be smashed by Yao Ming alone."
