Chapter 4 Goal! Squeeze out the starting position of Barnes!
At this moment, the score between the two teams on the field is 90:94!
In just over a minute after Wang Feng came on the stage, the score difference was only 4 points!
The Pacers were obviously in a hurry! The ball was once again handed over to Stuckey, who had the best touch!
Facing Wang Feng's defense, Stucky did not make any more breakthroughs, but chose a set of fake moves to connect with a step-back jumper and a three-pointer.
However, a set of fancy dribbling failed to deceive Wang Feng. When he stepped back for a jump shot, Wang Feng stepped forward to interfere in time. The purple Hall of Fame level defensive shock badge took effect again, and Stucky directly made a three-pointer.
Throw a three-pointer from outside the line!
"This defense...there's something about it!"
At this time, the players on the field also began to realize that Wang Feng, a little-known rookie, was much more difficult than expected! The Pacers are currently chasing points precisely because he defended Stucky several times in a row!
The Warriors got the ball. This time Thompson and Green started a pick-and-roll. Green caught the ball and caused a defensive foul by Pacers center Hibbert. He made 1 of 2 free throws and the point difference was only 4 points!
The Pacers, who were constantly chasing points, finally couldn't sit still and called a timeout.
Wang Feng walked off the court and found head coach Cole looking at him with a rare smile on his face. "Good defense, keep up the good work."
Hearing this, Wang Feng couldn't help laughing.
Obviously, with his defense just now, he has successfully gained the appreciation of the head coach! This is a very important first step!
But at the same time, he also saw Barnes' expressionless black face.
Indeed, Barnes was a little unhappy at this time.
In this game, his touch was very poor, and his shooting rate was less than 30%!
Not only that, in the process of defending Starkey, he acted like an idiot. Basically, the opponent could easily get past him and score easily.
But within just a few minutes of Wang Feng's appearance, he successfully contained Stuckey's defense and helped the team close the score!
As a competitor in the same position, Barnes has never regarded Wang Feng as a threat before, but simply looked down upon this rookie who could do nothing.
Head coach Cole took the initiative to praise him, which gave Barnes a strong sense of crisis.
"What's going on with this guy?"
The stoppage lasted very quickly. All the players just wiped their sweat briefly, drank a few sips of Gatorade, listened to a few tactical instructions from the head coach, and then immediately took the field again.
Usually at this time, Wang Feng will be substituted and will not stand up from the bench until the end of the game.
But this time it was different. Cole did not replace Wang Feng, but let Barnes continue to sit on the bench.
"This is an opportunity!"
Wang Feng was pleasantly surprised, and at the same time he knew very well that his performance in this game would directly determine his status in the Warriors and even whether he would stay or stay!
After inheriting the memory of another self, Wang Feng also realized that the Warriors may have completely lost patience with him. If he can't play for a long time, he may be waiting for the fate of being laid off!
With the God of Basketball system and those badge skills with super defensive abilities, Wang Feng will not worry about not being able to make a living in the NBA, but the problem is that this is the Warriors!
2015 is the time for the Warriors to rise! This year's playoffs, the Warriors will advance all the way and finally defeat the remnant Cleveland Cavaliers in the finals to win the championship trophy!
If you can get a championship ring with the Warriors, what kind of card will it be?
What's more, in 2016, Curry broke out completely, leading the Warriors to a world-shocking 73 wins, breaking Jordan's Bulls' best regular season win record, if not for James' unexpected comeback in the finals and losing the championship.
, that will be the most shocking season performance in the league!
If he can follow the Warriors to create the brilliant achievements of the past two years, even if Wang Feng is just a role player, he will get a lot of championship bonuses! There is no harm in all!
Of course, Wang Feng cannot be satisfied with sitting on the bench and getting a championship ring like Battelle and Sun Yue. He wants to occupy a larger proportion in the team's tactical system! Even become a pivotal role!
If you want to achieve this step, the first goal is to steal Barnes' starting position!
Is Harrison Barnes strong?
Very strong!
As a professional basketball player, Barnes joined the NBA with the seventh overall pick in the first round, and was selected to the All-Rookie First Team in his rookie season! He was at the ceiling level among all rookies that year!
According to the historical trajectory, in the summer of 2016, the Warriors gave up on renewing the contract with Barnes in order to acquire Durant. The Dallas Mavericks, later the Mavericks, offered a maximum salary of US$94 million over four years to obtain Barnes!
Although Barnes's NBA career statistics are only about 12 points and 5 rebounds, he has never been selected to the All-NBA Team or the All-Defensive Team, and has almost zero personal honors, looking at the more than 400 professional players in the league, he is already considered very good.
Players are also one of the goals that many players envy and pursue!
If it were Wang Feng from before, he might not even be qualified to carry shoes for Barnes!
But it’s different now!
Time travel, possessed by the God of Basketball system! With the blessing of five badges, Wang Feng has become a top 3D player who is also very strong in the league!
The reason why Barnes is a stable starter for the Warriors is not because of his offensive ability, but mainly because of his good athletic ability and fast lateral movement. In the Warriors' lineup, he can provide good defensive capabilities.
, improve the overall defensive ability of the Warriors, and the three-point shooting rate is at a passing level, which can ensure the shooting rate of open three-pointers.
Generally speaking, Barnes' positioning in the Warriors is biased toward a 3D player, and Wang Feng can now do this as well, and he can do it better!
Wang Feng's open three-pointers are pretty good in themselves, with a three-point shooting ability value of over 80. Now he has a purple Hall of Fame-level corner three-point shooter badge bonus. In terms of corner three-point shooting ability alone, he is already in the league.
Top ranks! Not even inferior to Curry Thompson!
Moreover, although he does not have time to learn more about the God of Basketball System now, since it is called the God of Basketball System, it cannot be just that! According to the routine of previous basketball novels, Wang Feng, who gets the help of the system, will definitely become a historical level super player.
Superstar ability!
Of course, those are all things for later! Now Wang Feng only needs to do one thing well, and fully display his five badge abilities in front of head coach Cole!
…
After re-debuting, the Pacers began to change their offensive ideas. The main point of attack was shifted from Stuckey on the outside to the inside. Luo Yin. Hibbert and David West were on the inside. Looking at the league, they are also top-notch. On the other hand, the Warriors
Side, under the top perimeter structure, the inside strength is at the bottom of the league.
After David West caught the ball, he immediately chose to hit Green with his back.
Green's defensive ability is extremely strong, but due to the height and weight gap, it is quite difficult to defend post players in singles.
West moved to the basket in a few steps and turned around to take the ball with his hands, but at this moment! A player appeared in front of West at the right time, and Green and Green formed a double-team on him!
This player is none other than Wang Feng!
West was very strong in his peak period and was even selected as an All-Star! But now he is getting older and his speed is getting slower. He suddenly encountered a double-team and was in a hurry under Wang Feng's pressure and almost lost the ball!
When he reluctantly passed the ball to his teammates, the attack time was almost over! The Pacers players had no choice but to force the shot against the defense of the defensive player, which resulted in a loud sound of iron.
"Nice job!"
Green was quite surprised. He didn't expect Wang Feng to take the initiative to double-team and force him.
Wang Feng was guarding Stuckey, who had the best touch in the Pacers. He rashly gave up the player he was guarding to double-team others, which was quite risky!
But Wang Feng did just that! And the result was surprisingly good! This shows that Wang Feng has rich experience in helping to defend against double teams!
This is entirely due to the effect of Wang Feng's other golden All-Star badge - Double Team Master.
In terms of helping to defend against double-teams, Wang Feng now has a unique sense of smell, which can determine the best time to double-team, and can cause great interference to double-team players, making it difficult for the opponent to successfully pass the ball after being double-teamed.
