Chapter 580 Cleveland has no soft eggs 4k(1/2)
Ben Wallace: "Dude, what's wrong? Look, I'm making you angry."
Rashid replied: "The young players today are so annoying."
"It's okay, we'll make them look good on the field later!"
At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers encountered the Pistons' iron barrel formation.
Wagner almost made a dribbling error while being guarded by Billups.
James had a weight advantage over Prince, but Prince's long arms also caused a lot of trouble for James.
Although Big Z was a head higher than Wallace when he got the ball inside, his bottom plate was extremely unstable.
Wallace's second brother is thicker than Big Z's calves...
Gooden had no temper at all when facing Rashid.
So in the first quarter, the Cavaliers played extremely uncomfortable.
but!
This does not prevent the Cavaliers from leading the Pistons in scoring.
The noise level at Quicken Loans Center continues to be high at decibels.
All this is because of Hamilton...the opponent Shentong!
...
You know, Hamilton's close pressing defense is excellent.
When the Pistons played against the Lakers, Kobe had a headache with Hamilton's defense.
Facing Shentong, who has a strong scoring ability, the Mask Man's defensive strategy is just one word: stick.
Use your body as a wall, sticking it tightly in front of you, leaving you no room to shoot or dribble, making it extremely awkward to play the ball.
The reason why Hamilton wears a mask is because it is too tight, and his opponent's elbow raised while holding the ball is repeatedly hit in the face.
After wearing a mask, Hamilton felt even more confident.
Facing a defense like Hamilton's, if this was left in the past, STO would have mostly used pick-and-rolls or low post singles to solve the problem.
However, the Pistons' defensive system is very strong, and the players can directly switch defenses and make up defenses very quickly.
As for the low post, Double Wallace is famous for a reason.
Breaking this situation just gave STO an opportunity to test its steps.
If it's difficult to break through the wall, then go around it.
STO took Hamilton as its axis and turned in a circle.
At first, Shentong felt that the power of this kind of walking in circles was limited.
But when he actually used it, he realized that his power was really boundless!
He turned around and hit the inside line.
Neither Wallace nor Rasheed expected Shentong to successfully break through the wall so quickly, before they had time to defend.
Shentong easily picked up the basket.
I didn’t expect that passing someone could be so easy?!
Compared with the previous steps, fake moves, feints, changes of direction...
It takes a whole body of play to complete a dribble.
But now, only one circle is needed.
...
Facing Hamilton again, this time the opponent strengthened its defense on the left side and did not give Shentong the opportunity to directly enter the penalty area.
But if one side is strong, the other side will inevitably be weak.
Lower your body, push the ground with your left foot, and at the same time dribble with your right hand to change direction and break through.
In the blink of an eye, Shentong had arrived on Hamilton's right side.
Rashid had been observing STO's movements and saw an opportunity coming.
But before Rashid, who was on defense, could stand firm, Shentong turned away from him like a top.
Rashid was puzzled.
What just happened?
Something disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
After breaking through and turning around, Shentong immediately avoided the double-team situation of Hamilton and Rashid.
It's the basket again, it's the basket again.
Then with the force of the rotation, Shentong held the ball behind his head with both hands, and then facing a pair of big black hands who didn't know who it was, he slammed the ball into the basket!
When Shentong landed, the intensity of the rotation had not disappeared, and it was difficult to hold on to the rotation.
Looking back, I saw the resentful look in the eyes of Big Ben Wallace.
The person who was detained just now turned out to be Wallace!
The ability to get rid of this Tai Chi step is really amazing.
Shentong couldn't help but think of the "Lingbo Weibu" mentioned in Jin Yong's novels.
It's just elusive and hard to guard against.
...
In the first session, Shentong tried Tai Chi Steps for the first time and achieved results beyond expectations.
The seemingly impregnable Pistons defense was turned around by Shentong, creating circle after circle in the Pistons' half.
The Pistons players clearly saw Shentong's footsteps and knew that Shentong was going back and forth, but they were unable to effectively contain it.
Turn left for a while, turn right for a while, continue left after turning left, and sometimes turn right...
Hamilton, his opponent, almost cried.
When leaving the field at the end of the first half, Hamilton vomited...
Shentong was spinning around in front of him, making Hamilton dizzy...
As for the Double Wallace...
He is as tough as iron, but facing such a smooth STO, he really can't hold himself back.
In the third quarter, the Pistons used their entire team's strength to pursue and intercept Shentong, and finally turned Shentong's top on defense.
But at this time, Shentong suddenly started passing the ball again.
James, Wagner, Smith, Marshall...
Three-pointers rained down into the Pistons' basket.
Pistons basket: Slow down...slow down...I can't stand it!
...
In this game, the Pistons seemed to go back a few years ago.
The opponent at that time was the Orlando Magic. A young boy from the opposing team was rushing in and out of the Pistons penalty area...
Although they knew that it was not good for the same person to come and go repeatedly in public, the Pistons really had no choice.
A young man with a white horse and a silver gun, it is the right time to be arrogant.
The same is true for STO at this moment.
No matter how much you resist, you can't stop Shentong from coming in and out.
The powerful inside line formed by the double Wallace was unexpectedly played around by Shentong at will.
When he once again witnessed Shentong's dunk after a breakthrough at close range but was unable to do anything about it, Wallace couldn't help but sigh: "Our era has passed..."
This black man who once won the best defensive player and rebounding champion knew that he would never be able to win the championship with Shentong around.
But Rashid didn't give up.
Even if you die, you still have to roar so loudly before you die.
Roaring Tianzun, you can only die standing!
So, when Shentong once again used Tai Chi steps to enter the penalty area in an attempt to complete a dunk, Rashid rushed out.
Shen Tong was knocked to the ground like a hug and a throw!
This foul is somewhat similar to O'Neal's action of knocking down Carter in the air.
Obviously, this foul was directed at someone.
