Chapter 142 [Reused Coolies]
On the morning of the 17th, Yang Rui was watching the news in the hotel and was turned over by his buddy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The schedule is tight, Yang Rui is either leading the team to train or compete, and he has no time to find a woman to date.
In order to dispel the growing rumors of "gay", Thomas Bentley went to Los Angeles from Silicon Valley to do a ridiculous thing, he attended a fan meeting of Hollywood actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, gave flowers to show his love on the spot, and boldly asked for kisses.
Probably because of his outstanding image, Zeta Jones, who was in a good mood, met the request of his relatives.
This move undoubtedly irritated other fans, and many rushed to the stage, so much so that the organizers had to send female security guards to escort Zeta Jones.
A clear photo of Thomas was published in entertainment magazines, and a live video was broadcast on the radio.
Yang Rui suddenly felt that he had to find a woman to date, and since he was younger, he should live more passionately, not just work.
That night, the Raptors challenged the Pistons away, and Willis and Miller took turns to rest.
The last time he lost, Yang Rui saw the number of ways of the Pistons team, he also played fast offense, swing people were in charge, the first two inside lines were highly mobile, and he was not good at positional battles to attack the basket, and he generally pulled out to create opportunities for outside players, and the Pistons had obvious weaknesses.
Both teams have two "Jordan successors", who are highly praised by the league, and ESPN, Toronto Sports Channel, and CCTV5 all broadcast the game live.
Raptors starters with slight changes: Billups, Maddy, Carter, Detreve, Cato.
Pistons starters: Lynch Hunter, Joe Dumas, Hill, Don Reed, Bison Dele.
Cato jumps the ball and the game begins.
The Raptors pulled away, Carter stood in the bottom corner on the right, Billups in the bottom corner on the left, Detreve 70 degrees on the left, Cato in the low post, Maddy in the middle, and Joe Dumas in the opposite position, no one covered.
Pistons coach Alvin Gentry's idea was for Stackhouse to take the bench against Maddy, adding a three-point shot to the starter, but Maddy started this time.
Maddie faced the 191CM Jo Dumas, took a step, and pulled three points in the middle.
Maddie's main practice in the team is the three-point shot in this position, and Yang Rui clearly told him that it is not strange to miss the shot, and it is normal to shoot more than 5 times in a game.
Jo Dumas was helpless, he couldn't even seal his eyes, the arc of the ball was flat, and the basket popped. Red grabbed the rebound, and the Pistons countered.
The four Raptors quickly returned to defend and stared at people, and the Pistons had to fall into position. CATO RETURNED TO THE BACK POSITION TO WITHSTAND RHETT, WHO WAS 203 CM TALL AND WEIGHED 116 KG.
Several times the pass was not available, Hill singled out Carter, stepped back and missed the jumper, the rebound was grabbed by Cato, and the pass Billups battled in a positional battle.
Toronto commentator David Nelly said: "The Raptors slowed down today, so it's okay, if the fast break is dominant in consecutive back-to-backs, it is difficult for players to ensure efficiency, and it is a big test of physical strength." ”
Clarke-Thomson said: "Maddie is a rare starter, he had a chance against Joe Dumas and shot another ......"
Maddie received the ball in the middle and played in strict accordance with Yang Rui's arrangement.
He just entered the league with a height of 203CM, and this year he has grown to about 205CM, with an arm span of 221CM. I didn't jump at all this time.
Maddie finds the crosshair and hits a three-pointer. 3 to 0.
The advantage of playing this way is that it gives full play to the players' individual strengths, and the second is that it allows teammates to save energy and focus more on the defensive end.
Hill asked for the ball slip again.
In the team, Carter often goes head-to-head with Maddy, Billups, Alvin and others, and he gradually gained experience in defense. To deal with people like Hill who are mainly breakthrough-oriented, it is necessary to guard against sudden attacks and keep the interference in front of them.
The three-point differential is Hill's Achilles' heel, as he made just three of his 21 three-point attempts last season and has yet to make six three-pointers so far this season.
Hill burst in and was caught and split to his teammates, Joe Dumas faced Maddy, and the breakaway couldn't be hung to Bisson, who singled out Detreve, turned and missed the shot, and the rebound was grabbed by Cato.
The Raptors fell to the ground again, the Pistons switched defenses, and Hill went to defend Carter with Maddy and Joe Dumas.
This is uncomfortable for the Pistons, because Hill can drop back to the basket to protect the rebound in the backcourt and launch a counterattack with a pass. But if he doesn't change it, he is afraid that Maddie will not finish casting.
Maddie made the easiest choice, dribbling the ball laterally and passing to Carter, who ran to the right corner and turned his back to the ball.
Carter leaned on Joe Dumas to turn to the baseline and jumped up with the ball in both hands. Joe Dumas hurriedly fouled and didn't pull it, Katla scored on the basketball, and the referee blew the whistle, 2+1.
Katga hit a free throw, 6-0.
The Pistons attacked, Bison received a return pass in the middle after covering, and scored in the face of Billups with a jumper. 6 to 2.
Bisson is a good player, having played for the Bulls in the 1996-97 season, and the Bulls' second championship is credited to him.
In the Raptors positional battle, Maddie passed to Carter again, this time Carter sat directly in the low position with his back to the restricted area, and after hitting the 84-kilogram Jodumas, his center of gravity was unstable, and he turned around and scored with one hand. 8 to 2.
Yang Rui believes that Carter is the first core of the team, just because he is extremely comprehensive, and his back skills are also top among swing people, but he is not as frequent as Kobe and Pierce, so few people mention it.
It's impossible for an average quarterback to stand up to Carter, let alone a small man like Joe Dumas?
Gentry was not slow to react, and only 2 minutes into the game, he replaced Stackhouse and replaced Joe Dumas to strengthen the confrontation in the No. 2 position.
Yang Rui shouted "shrink defense" into the field!
The players understood and changed their style of play, with four shrinking into the box, with only Billups following Hunter on the periphery.
Stackhouse faced Carter, grabbed the ball and dummered a three-pointer, and as soon as he played, he was a shot against people.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Stackhouse was a lifelong waster, with a career shooting rate of only 40.9% and 30.9% from three-point range, even if he averaged 29.8 points per game in the season, the efficiency was not commendable.
The best position for Stackhouse is also the sixth man, and it is easy to play around when he starts.
Even if Carter only interfered slightly, the ball bounced off the basket and Cato grabbed the rebound in the backcourt.
The Raptors attacked, Carter missed a pull-up jump shot, Cato grabbed the rebound in the front court again, and scored on the second offense. 10 to 2.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Cato averaged 7 rebounds per game in the peak season of his career, but this does not mean that his ability to grab rebounds is not good, but because of tactics.
The most typical example is DeAndre Jordan, before Rivers came to the Clippers, Jordan Jr. averaged the most rebounds per game at 8.3, and after Rivers became the coach, Jordan Jr. became the rebounding king.
No matter how good the person is, he can't stand a grab of three, the Clippers didn't help Jordan Jr. before, the wing didn't retreat, and in the first few seasons, Jordan Jr. had to go out to defend and protect Griffin.
During the Rocket period, Cato also faced the same problem, he often made a cameo appearance as a power forward to go out to block and dismantle, the restricted area belonged to Yao Ming, and when he met Yao Ming, he was allowed to go on, which is the sadness of coolies.
