Then the Jazz hit an extra free throw and the Suns attacked.
Barkley still pulled out, trying to pull the postman as far away as possible to create a low singles opportunity for Wang Tiejun.
However, in this starting lineup of the Suns, Kevin Johnson is not good at three-pointers and almost never shoots. Ceballos has no three-pointers and never shoots. He only has mid-range shots and breakthrough layups. Barkley's three-pointers are not very good either.
, that is to say, Dan Malley has a good three-pointer, and only one of the five starters can shoot three-pointers, so the Suns' ability to spread the ball is actually not enough.
This is also one of the weaknesses of the Suns' lineup, the ability to create isolations in the low post is not strong enough.
When Wang Tiejun first entered the league, he only played singles in the low post. No one double-teamed him. Now he has shown a certain strength and can still have many singles opportunities in the low post. But after entering the playoffs, how many singles opportunities he will have will be limited.
It's hard to say, maybe he will be double-teamed as soon as he gets the ball.
And now, the Jazz, who really want to win, have coach Jerry Sloan deploying a double-teaming tactic for the low post.
After the Suns pulled away, the Jazz players immediately shrank their defense. Except for Jeff Malone, who did not let go of Dan Malley, everyone else took two steps away from their respective defenders and stayed outside the paint area. As long as Kevin Johnson's
Once the ball is passed in, you can immediately form a double-team on the low post.
Kevin Johnson took a look at the formation and decided not to pass it in. He looked at Barkley on the right.
"Kevin!"
When Wang Tiejun saw this, he quickly squeezed towards the basket and shouted loudly.
At this time, as a big center, he has to step up and exert his strength. Otherwise, how can he serve as the inside pillar of the Suns?
The 120 kilogram Mike Brown was also very strong, but he still couldn't withstand his squeeze and he stood in the paint area, and at this time the ball was passed in.
As soon as the ball left the top of the arc, the Jazz's double-teaming began immediately, with postman Malone and small forward Tyrone Corbin rushing over from the left and right wings.
Especially Tyrone Corbin on the left wing, who was only two steps away from his position. He turned around and stepped into the paint area with one step, and his hands were almost stretched out to his body. If he took another step further, he would be directly close to his body.
"Crack!"
The moment he held Mike Brown on his left elbow and grabbed the ball with his right hand, he saw Tyrone Corbin rushing towards him from the corner of his right eye, and the strong wind hit him first.
The next moment, he leaned over to hit the ball, keeping his right foot still against Tyrone Corbin, and moved his left foot inward, pushing inward to hit the ball.
"Bang!"
The force exerted in the rush was not sufficient, but it still had the bonus of hitting power, and Mike Brown was knocked half a step away.
The double-team was broken and he gained a little space. At this time, he could no longer attack because Mike Brown was still blocking the front.
So he immediately exerted his strength and leaned outward. Corbin, who was only 95 kilograms, groaned and sat down. Only then did he get space to take action. He blocked Mike Brown with his left elbow, calmly jumped sideways, and hooked the ball to the basket.
basket.
Brown, who was knocked away, jumped up to block the shot, but his hand was at least three feet away from Lao Wang's ball. How to block the shot?
"Hook hand?"
The on-site commentator roared loudly, and the next moment, he suddenly increased his volume and shouted: "It's hit. Old K broke the double team. The sweeper in the penalty area blasted away the two Jazz double team players and hit a hook.
, he made the shot."
"Pa bang bang..."
The audience also burst into warm applause and cheers for this goal.
"Cool!"
Lao Wang himself also became excited.
On the sidelines, Jerry Sloan was so surprised. The outside players double-teamed Old K. His tonnage and strength were not enough, and he was knocked down directly. How can he double-team? Can he only use the weak-side postman to double-team? But Barkley can't
Let it go.
At this time, the hanging screen was replaying the scene where Wang Tiejun broke through the double team just now, and he also raised his head and stared at the screen.
"There is no foul, the supporting foot does not move, the elbow does not move, there is no shoulder sinking to exert force, the action is very clean by hitting."
He was a little shocked. He just used his blows to force the two people away. How did he exert his strength in the narrow gap between them?
But no matter what, in his opinion, Old K's method and ability to break double teams are unique to the league, and no other low-post player can do this.
This method of breaking double teams is to directly kill all the defenders who come up to double teams, and then take action. It is indeed a penalty area sweeper.
If there is another player, it is O'Neal, the Magic's No. 1 pick. He is a super rookie with even more talent than the old K.
"These two rookies are really monsters who suddenly broke into the alliance!"
He sighed in his heart, it's a pity that the Jazz couldn't get one, and the Jazz lacked a good center.
In the next quarter, Wang Tiejun was replaced after playing 7 minutes. He hit five goals in total, but hit two, which means he only hit one of the next four balls.
Tyrone Corbin also double-teamed. One of his attacks caused a foul on Mike Brown. He made one of two free throws and only made one of the remaining three shots.
In the whole quarter, he made 2 of 5 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, 5 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 foul in the third quarter. He was able to achieve 40% efficiency of nearly two points in double teams. It was still okay. If there were no double teams, the hit rate would definitely be
will be higher.
He also didn't play at the basket in this quarter to save energy for the final quarter.
I have played 23 minutes today, made 7 of 12 shots, 3 of 5 free throws, 17 points and 9 rebounds, which is still good.
At the end of the third quarter, 68:78, the Suns still led the Jazz by 10 points.
At the beginning of the final quarter, Wang Tiejun did not play and sat on the bench.
After half a quarter, the Jazz exerted their strength. Stockton stole two consecutive steals from Kevin Johnson and Dan Marley. Postman Malone made 3 of 5 shots and 2 of 3 free throws in the half, scoring 8 points, leading 82:87.
The Jazz narrowed the point difference to 5 points.
"This guy is really dirty when he plays ball!"
He was sitting on the sidelines and clearly saw that when Kevin Johnson broke through with the ball, he was tripped by Stokes, and then the ball was intercepted.
The Suns called a timeout and replaced him.
When the Suns attacked, facing Stockton's defense, Kevin Johnson cautiously advanced to the top of the key. Seeing him standing in the low post on the left wing, he directly hoisted the ball in.
He was facing upwards, and before the ball fell into his hands, he noticed someone rushing towards him out of the corner of his eyes.
"The weak side must be the postman!"
At this moment, Xiongbu suddenly stepped forward, jumped up from the first step, grabbed the ball in the air with one hand, and then when it fell, he threw the ball violently to the low right wing behind the postman.
There was someone there looking at him, Buckley.
"What?"
The postman who was quickly helping to defend the strong side was startled. When he turned around quickly, he saw Barkley jumping up after receiving the ball.
"Come in! Oh, hell!"
The on-site commentator was amazed.
"well!"
There was also a huge sigh at the scene.
"Crack!"
Barkley, who missed an open shot from close range, also slapped his hand hard.
Under the basket, Postman Malone and Mike Brown squeezed Wang Tiejun outside and protected the rebound, allowing the Jazz to attack.
An on-site commentator said at this time: "Old K's distribution of the ball was very timely this time, but it is a pity that Barkley was a little unlucky."
Another said: "Perhaps Barkley was not prepared? Old K's transition from receiving the ball to distributing the ball was very sudden this time."
"Possibly, but it's still Barkley's problem," the previous commentator said.
At this time, the Jazz advanced to the frontcourt, and others were running. Stockton paused at the top of the key, and Postman Malone came up to pick and roll. He used the wall to break through with the ball, using a small one to beat a large one, and then broke through Barkley, who was changing defense.
Entered the paint area.
Wang Tiejun had returned to defend the basket, nervously staring at the approaching Stockton.
At this time, Stockton did not attack the basket. Instead, he pulled horizontally and broke through to the left wing. He suddenly passed back to the postman behind him.
"not good!"
When Wang Tiejun, who was following Stockton to adjust his defensive position to the left, saw it, he suddenly became excited and quickly turned to face the basket.
At this time, the postman caught the ball, stepped forward, and Lao Wang blocked the shot from the side.
"Bang!"
"Beep!"
He hit the postman on the wrist, but failed to stop the opponent's dunk, and was hit with a two-plus-one.
Fortunately, his position was not under the basket, but because he was guarding Stockton, he was one step in front of the left side of the basket, so it did not count as a dunk.
84:87, Jazz trailed by three points.
"The Jazz's most classic pick-and-roll pass tactic is the black and white double evil. Old K's rim protection ability needs to be improved."
"Old K's defense was good in the first quarter, but he has his weaknesses. His lateral movement ability is not good. Once he is moved away, it will be difficult to go back."
Two on-site commentators analyzed.
At this time, the postman missed the extra free throw, Wang grabbed the backcourt rebound, and the Suns attacked.
"Get in."
On the sidelines, Paul Westphal gave instructions with gestures.
Wang Tiejun entered the low post on the left wing. As soon as he stopped, the ball came in, and the Jazz double-team came.
He faced the left wing immediately after receiving the ball, with his hands in the air, and was double-teamed by Mike Brown and Tyrone Corbin.
On the weak side, the postman stood in the right midfield. Last time, Barkley almost scored an open ball. This time, he had concerns and did not dare to double-team.
But now Wang Tiejun is playing high and high, which is indeed a threat to his defense. As long as he dares to come over, the ball will definitely go to Barkley behind him.
"here."
At this moment, Ceballos, who had been left open, cut in from the right wing, shouted loudly, and at the same time cut into the paint area from Wang Tiejun and three other people.
Lao Wang threw with both hands and lobbed the ball in front of Ceballos.
"Bang!"
Ceballos jumped up, caught the ball in the air, and smashed it into the basket.
"Beautiful! Old K and Ceballos played an alley-oop, and Old K once again sent a wonderful pass! His current position is the organization center..."
"Yes, Old K made full use of his ability to attract double-teams in the low post and created an opportunity for Ceballos to cut. At 84:89, we regained the lead by 5 points."
In the commentary box, two commentators shouted loudly.
Next, the postman missed a shot and Wang Tiejun protected the backcourt rebound.
This kind of backcourt rebound missed by the postman from the outside, the Jazz had no chance to grab the offensive rebound at all. The height difference was too much. Mike Brown, who was stuck outside, even directly returned to defense without trying to compete with Wang Tiejun.
rebound.
Sun attack.
Wang Tiejun played well at this point, he could attract double-teams, and he had the ability to distribute the ball and coordinate, so the head coach instructed to continue playing at this point, and the ball was passed to him again.
This time, after receiving the ball, he did not face Barkley on the left. Instead, he grabbed the ball with his right hand and suddenly threw it towards the three-point line on the right.
Tyrone Corbin, who had just rushed to his side, paused and turned around quickly.
However, he was fooled. It was a fake passing action, but Wang Tiejun had too strong control over the ball, so it was very realistic.
When he turned around, Wang Tiejun leaned over to dribble, and with a fierce hit, he knocked away Mike Brown inside.
When he turned around, he realized that he had been fooled, and quickly turned back.
It was just that he turned around continuously and failed to keep up with his feet. He lost his center of gravity and fell to the floor with a thud.
"Bang!"
At this time, Wang Tiejun's second attack hit Mike Brown, who staggered back and lost his center of gravity.
The next moment, Wang Tiejun turned around and stepped into the paint area. With more room to exert force, he stepped forward and hit a fierce frontal iron mountain.
"Bang!"
"Well!"
Mike Brown groaned and fell back instantly, his 120 kilogram body being knocked over.
After Wang Tiejun knocked over a person, he couldn't help but froze. At this time, the postman had already returned to guard in front of him, raising his hands upward, blocking him in front like a mountain.
But at this time, he had already pulled the ball up, then took off and hooked the ball from the front towards the basket one step away.
The postman's jump to block the shot is just a thought and has no actual defensive effect.
"Whoa!"
Made a two-pointer under the basket.
"Beautiful! Old K hit a front-side hook under the basket." An on-site commentator shouted excitedly.
"From catching the ball to making a fake pass, evading a double team, and then using his most powerful punch to knock over another one, Old K is worthy of the nickname of the penalty area sweeper. He kills all the defenders around him before taking action.
" another commentator shouted loudly.
"Karl, switch defense."
Jerry Sloan couldn't help it anymore. Now the Suns mainly focus on Wang Tiejun's low-post offense, and Barkley is only there to contain him, wasting the postman's defense.
However, he can only take a gamble. The postman can only defend one person. Who makes the Taipei defense team too strong inside?
However, he stopped the double-teaming tactic because he needed to see the effect of the Postman defending against Old K alone.
He also knew that even the top three super centers would have difficulty guarding a rookie like Old K, but Postman was different from others. His defense would give even the top three super centers a headache.
84:91, the Suns lead, the Jazz attack.
Jeff Malone hit a mid-range shot through the pick-and-roll, and the Suns attacked.
"Huh?"
Seeing the postman running to his side, Lao Wang was a little surprised. Does Sir value him so much?
He still remembered that this guy owed him an elbow, and now he had a chance to get it back.
Low on the left wing, he wants to position himself strongly and deep.
But the postman kept pushing forward and elbowed him from behind to prevent him from getting in.
This is also a test. With his larger tonnage, in terms of absolute strength and tonnage, he is on the same level as the postman, and no one can squeeze the other.
"So powerful!"
He sighed in admiration and raised his right hand to ask for the ball.
Kevin Johnson took a look at Barkley's side. The latter was not very excited today, did not actively ask for the ball, and was not very active in running positions. He gave the ball to Wang Tiejun's side again.
When the ball was passed, Wang Tiejun felt relieved when he found that the double-team was not coming.
"Bang!"
As soon as he caught the ball, he was hit hard by an elbow in the back, which made his legs weak. Fortunately, he didn't feel the urge to urinate.
"What the hell!"
He cursed angrily, handed the ball to his left hand with his right hand, suddenly looked back with his head, and swung his arms back violently.
"Bang!"
His right elbow struck the postman hard in the face.
"Well!"
The postman screamed in pain, only to feel a buzzing sound in his head, and then lost all consciousness. His whole body was thrown back violently by his elbow, and his whole body was like a wooden stake, being chopped down on the spot by a giant axe.
"Beep!"
Amid the exclamations of the fans, the referee's whistle sounded.
"Kacha kacha..."
The media gallery behind the baseline reacted the fastest, and the camera flashed crazily.
“It’s incredible!”
"The postman was knocked unconscious by an elbow!"
"God, there's big news today, luckily I'm here!"
They clicked the shutter and kept shouting excitedly.
"Oh, my God, yes, it was a normal turn, no foul happened."
"Oh ho ho ho, did someone finally dare to elbow the postman? Haha, okay, I apologize, I shouldn't have had this attitude."
In the commentary box, the two commentators shouted excitedly.
"Karl?"
Amidst the exclamations, Stockton and the other four people rushed forward.
Barkley and others were not in a hurry, because the postman had fainted, and the Jazz had no one they could hit, so why were they anxious?
They were just too surprised that Lao K actually struck first. They were so surprised. No one had ever dared to do this to a postman.
However, they were not surprised by Old K's ability to knock out the postman with one elbow. That day at Old K's house, they had seen Old K repeatedly hitting such a thick iron and wooden stake with his elbows. Both elbows of Old K had a
There are layers of calluses, which are those who have really practiced elbows. It is normal for them to faint if they get hit, but it is abnormal for them not to open the scoop directly.
"Sir, did I commit a foul?"
Hearing the whistle, Lao Wang threw the ball to the referee, glanced at the unconscious postman on the floor, and said in surprise.
The referee caught the ball and threw it to the base referee, then waved to the Jazz bench and asked the team doctor to come on and lift the player.
At this time, when I heard Lao Wang's words, I couldn't help but twitch my eyes, and secretly thought, you're not a good rookie. Why are you pretending to be stupid? You don't know whether you committed a foul or not?
He immediately made a first-level criminal gesture towards Lao Wang, and threw two free throws.
"Brother, he elbowed me just now. Why was there no foul and I called it after accidentally touching him?" Lao Wang asked Barkley.
"Because he is a superstar like David Robinson, and you are just a rookie." Barkley chuckled.
"Do you also receive such treatment?" Lao Wang asked curiously.
Barkley smiled awkwardly and said: "I don't like elbow people, you know that."
He said this, but in his heart, he couldn't help roaring: "Am I the same as him? He is the brother-in-law of the referee committee. One elbow caused the Smiling Assassin to have more than forty stitches on his head, and he even committed a common foul.
None."
In fact, this fat man is a ruthless person. He once broke several of Rodman's ribs with his elbow while grabbing a rebound. He was so cruel that Lao Wang was still too young in front of him.
