89. Young people don’t talk about martial arts! (Seeking the moon
The fans at the scene had the strongest senses. As soon as Dell Curry dunked, Zhang Hao appeared at the opponent's basket in a elusive way.
The fans who noticed that Zhang Hao surpassed the opponent's defender Antoine Lyles and left Antoine Lyles far behind felt even more dazzled!
Many people know that Zhang Hao can dance, mainly because he was selected in the NBA lottery zone. After he was selected in the high school student dunk contest a few months ago, he was mentioned by the media many times. More NBA fans learned about this. Nets fans naturally know that their team's rookie won the dunk king in high school.
However, Zhang Hao grew a few centimeters after being selected. In the physical data released by the Nets, Zhang Hao is a real power forward's height and wingspan. The bounce may not be affected too much, but the speed should be affected by the growth, right?
However, it seems that there is no such thing as this! Although they don’t know whether Zhang Hao was fast in high school, if Zhang Hao’s speed is affected by his growth, how fast would it be in high school?
Zhang Hao's counterattack accelerated just now so fast! It's okay to describe it as outrageous.
After dunking the basket, Zhang Hao ran back to the backcourt again in a low-key manner to prepare for defense.
He really wants to keep a low profile, and he just switches hands in the air because he is afraid that the right-hand dunk will affect his feel.
His teammates have seen his dunk during the training match and think that his dunk is very low-key.
But the opponents and the fans on the scene don't think so...
The Hornets happened to see Zhang Hao's counterattack and the players who were fighting back became interested in Zhang Hao's stunning counterattack. The fans on the scene also looked at their high school rookie a little.
Dell Curry was a very famous college genius 10 years ago. If he hadn't been a freshman, Dell Curry would have had a chance to be selected for the first team of football, baseball and basketball in the United States. However, even if football gave up, baseball and basketball were selected in the first round of the top league in the top league. Today, they are still people that fans occasionally mention when they mention genius.
Zhang Hao is a rookie, a high school rookie, and he competes with Dell Curry. The opponent seems to be serious. How can Nets fans not be excited?
In a preseason game, the atmosphere of the fans at the scene was made like a playoff by Zhang Hao. Those who didn't know thought it was two superstars fighting each other. When they saw that they were two pitchers, one of them was a rookie...
While shooting on the run, Zhang Hao worked hard to defend, and tried hard to observe Dell Curry's playing style and habits. He gradually began to find the position he should go, and the timing of the attack. Gradually, even if Dell Curry was prepared, he was disturbed by Zhang Hao's assisted defense.
After all, Dell Curry is just a part-time point guard. His best attitude is to catch and shoot without the ball and cut into the offensive box. He has been developing in this regard for many years. His ball-holding style is relatively average. It is okay to play Kenny Anderson, but it is really not possible to play Chiles, let alone Zhang Hao help.
The fans on the scene were surprised to find that Zhang Hao not only competed with Dell Curry, but also gained a slight advantage!
Dell Curry is the best sixth man and the league's top unball pitcher!
As for Dell Curry, a pitcher who ran to play singles, he was at a disadvantage... Nets fans don't care!
Zhang Hao has to shoot, with Chiles helping him, but Dell Curry's current teammates are the only one who swipes it, and the Hornets' head coach is also very casual to substitute. Anyway, except for a few main players, the other players are at the same level. Dell Curry, the veteran in the team's scoring list, wants to play, so their head coach Alan Bristol lets him go.
Bristol joined the Hornets as assistant coach in 1988 and later became head coach. Dell Curry also transferred to the Hornets in 1988. The two had a very good relationship. Bristol would still give Dell Curry this face.
But as he fought, Dell Curry felt more and more distressed!
Zhang Hao was not good at defending the side of their side. It was difficult to defend against a pitcher without the ball. His teammates on the court were not very good at defending, they were all marginal players. They were also thinking about killing two famous players, Chiles and Gilliam. Zhang Hao shot very happily.
On the other hand, Dell Curry can't beat the single defense against Chiles and Zhang Hao's attack!
If he had Boggs here, would he be afraid of Zhang Hao? But Boggs was reimbursed, and Zhang Hao had Chiles!
Dell Curry is so angry!
"Young people don't talk about martial ethics!"
...
After the official timeout in the second quarter, the score gap between Zhang Hao and Dell Curry gradually widened!
Moreover, because Zhang Hao's shooting easier, the Nets' overall score became easier. On the court, Hornets players began to notice that Zhang Hao's mid-range shooting accuracy was far beyond expectations. When they began to pay attention to defense, Gilliam, who had not been replaced, seized the opportunity to attack the basket continuously. While the scoring gap between Zhang Hao and Dell Curry widened, the Nets overturned the score.
After halftime, the Nets overtook the Hornets 62-54 and entered the midfield break with 8 points.
Zhang Hao played 18 minutes in the first half, made 11 of 18 shots, scored 25 points, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 steal. He only had 26 seconds of holding the ball, and only dribbled twice. These two times were not dribbling one attack, but only two times!
In the second quarter, Zhang Hao made 7 of 11 shots, made 5 mid-range shots, two dunks, plus 3 of 4 free throws, and 17 points!
17 points in a single quarter, although it was a preseason, it also made the fans on the scene excited!
This rookie has something to do!
The morale of the Nets was driven by Zhang Hao, and he became more and more excited as he played.
Compared to the Hornets who didn't care about the preseason victory or defeat, Dell Curry also played 18 minutes in the first half and scored 15 points and 4 assists, and was laughed and teased by his teammates on the way back to the locker room. The Nets players were also laughing, but they were discussing how to play in the second half. They wanted to win!
Nets players don’t care about winning or losing because they have a chance to win. Last year, Coleman only scored 30 wins and 52 losses, and Coleman was missing, and Coleman changed to a bunch of useless players. The media predicted that the Nets’ record for the new season was less than 20 wins, and the No. 1 pick was signed with strong contenders. They naturally had excuses for losing and there was no pressure to win or lose.
But when there is a chance to win, even if it is just a preseason, Nets players want to win!
Randy Whitman seemed to feel that the team had become a little different, seemed to have become more active and motivated, and no longer had a complete stagnant pool like last season.
Obviously, this change was brought about by Zhang Hao.
Randy Whitman, an assistant coach, can feel Zhang Hao's enthusiasm for the game.
But this change is still small, very small, so small that it is almost negligible, because it can only be seen when they surpass the score and have an advantage. This is just an ordinary preseason game.
In Randy Whitman's opinion, Zhang Hao played so well in the first half. He knew very well, as an assistant coach. The team's two point guards were helping Zhang Hao. Their other positions were not very good at the team, but the point guard was absolutely excellent. Looking at the entire league, their point guards were all first-class. The opponent had never defended seriously since the rotation stage after the first official timeout.
Combining these two factors, and Zhang Hao is indeed very good at central investment and has a good awareness, he can perform so well.
In the second half, Randy Whitman did not intend to let Zhang Hao continue to take the lead. In the real game, it was obviously not a good thing to feed Zhang Hao and let Zhang Hao shoot alone, and it was even more not a good thing to cultivate Zhang Hao's playing habits. Unball pitchers should do what the unball pitchers should do.
After more than half a quarter in the third quarter, Zhang Hao was replaced to help Kenny Anderson, slip into the bottom line or restrain himself at mid-range, and help his teammates score.
At this time, Zhang Hao "knows too much" played a role, mainly because he played an important role in his learning of defense and defense.
He found that he knew many running routes, which was very useful when analyzing his opponent's movement tendencies!
If it is not bright in the east or the west, Zhang Hao feels that knowledge will always be useful, it depends on whether he has patience and whether he can find opportunities to use it.
With this kind of playing style, Zhang Hao will have less mobile phones, and of course the physical energy consumption will also be reduced. If a pitcher without a ball wants to find a gap, the teammate's pick-and-roll without a ball is a way, and the teammate's restraint is also a way. In addition, it is to seize the opportunity and pass away the opponent by speed. The way he finds opportunities is often the third way. When he doesn't care about creating his own scoring opportunity as the first choice, the consumption will naturally be smaller.
With less offensive consumption, you can devote more effort to assisting defense...Dell Curry!
As long as Dell Curry comes on the field, Zhang Hao will catch him and fight.
The overall defense is not good, but the simple goal can keep up with it. Don’t care about others, or even the effect of supplementary defense, just predict Dell Curry’s movement... It’s done quite well!
Dell Curry and Zhang Hao had no conflicts, but they both competed with each other, but there was no good chance in the second half. In addition, he played more in the first half and played less time in the second half. He shot 4 times in total, including 1 of 3 three-pointers. Another close-range landing was disturbed by Zhang Hao and he only scored 3 points.
After seeing Zhang Hao get 20+, he devoted himself to the defense and tried his best to criticize himself. Dell Curry was so sad and angry!
The rookie on the opposite side had too obvious thoughts, just to suppress him, a veteran pitcher! A power forward had made up his defense beyond the three-point line, so it was simply too obvious!
The situation of the game is also in a favorable direction for the Nets. As the Nets play, they become nine main players in rotation. But the Hornets look down on this strength. Hornets head coach Alan Bristol tried each lineup step by step. It doesn't matter how they play. They usually win the game with the main players.
With the unequal investment of the two teams, the Hornets replaced all six main players at 4 minutes and 27 seconds in the fourth quarter. At this time, the Hornets were already 19 points behind 82 to 101.
Dell Curry, who played for 27 minutes, finally scored 18 points and 6 assists. Seeing the team losing nearly 20 points... This is not important. What is important is the rookie on the opposite side, who played 13 of 22 shots in 30 minutes, plus 5 of 6 free throws, scored 31 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks and 2 steals!
"So despicable! It's shameless!
Wait for me, I won’t fuck you to death in the next game... Wait, I’m so much shorter than him, his shameless defensive approach... Damn!
Chapter completed!
