Pen Fun Club EbookFREE.me, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the all-round athlete!
The U.S. team suddenly switched to several shooting experts, obviously preparing to shoot three-pointers.
There are 29 seconds left in the game. The two sides evenly scored. If they made a three-pointer at the last moment, it would be a quasi-killer, and the 3-point advantage is enough to make the US team an undefeated advantage.
"Anti-three points!" After seeing the substitutions of the US team, the Chinese team reached a consensus as soon as possible.
The veteran Billups dribbled forward. He carefully observed the position of everyone in the Chinese team. I saw that everyone in the Chinese team was close to the opponent. Obviously, he was preparing for the United States to shoot.
"Hehe!" A sneer appeared on Billups's face. At the next moment, he suddenly passed the ball and threw the ball to Gordon.
Gordon didn't stay after receiving the ball, and he directly chose to break through, rushing into the three-point line with a change of direction.
"Breakthrough? Isn't it a three-pointer? Or is it just a trap?"
The inside player's defense was quickly put in place. Gordon's height was not enough to meet the big man's layup. I saw his hand flick and passed the ball to Granger. Granger did not stay after receiving the ball, and directly tossed the ball to Durant.
"Sure enough, it's Durant! I guessed it would be him already. The others are all in the guise, and it's Durant who will come to perform this three-point tactic in the end!" At that time, Durant accelerated and broke into the inside.
"Don't make a three-pointer? Or pass the ball in order to attract the defense?" Deng Huade wondered.
"People who are optimistic about themselves!" The players of the Chinese team did not relax their vigilance outside the three-point line. At this time, they originally put two points instead of three points.
Durant didn't pass the ball, he directly faked into the rim, a draw layup and scored two points.
"The U.S. team asked for a two-pointer? There are 15 seconds left in the game, which means that the U.S. team spent 14 seconds on this attack, which is not a fast two-pointer? What does the old coach K want to do, 15 seconds, Enough to play a complete tactical cooperation, does he still want to be killed?" Deng Huad thought silently.
92 to 90, the American team leads by two points, and the Chinese team has a 15 second of attack time, which means that the Chinese team can arrange a three-point tactics to kill the American team. Even if there is no chance of a three-pointer, a two-pointer can even the score and drag it into overtime.
In front of the TV, the commentators are also analyzing the American team's approach. They can't understand why the old K coach made this tactical arrangement.
The United States originally had 29 seconds of offensive time. If you play a 24-second buzzer attack, the Chinese team will have only 5 seconds. After the World Championship is suspended, it is not possible to serve in the center line, so these 5 seconds include the time to take the ball to the frontcourt. Therefore, in the World Championship, 5 seconds can hardly play any tactical cooperation, which is generally dribbling. After the midfield, pass a shot.
But now, the US team has left the Chinese team for 15 seconds, which is enough to play a complete tactical cooperation. A complete tactical coordination of 15 seconds and a rushed shot of 5 seconds can be said to be two offensively different, and the probability of scoring is even different.
In other words, the United States team left China 15 seconds, which is equivalent to leaving the Chinese team a chance, a chance for the final lore.
...
"15 seconds is enough to make a complete offense. Why don't the US team press the ball again? Are they worried about the lore?"
"The Chinese team is not without a three-point shooter, and in the Olympics two years ago, Zhang Guan successfully killed the United States with a three-pointer. Today's Zhang Guan feels hot, he has scored 50 points , Maybe a three-pointer lore will be presented again!"
"Does it mean that the US team is going to encounter Waterloo again? It is really unimaginable that the finals of the two consecutive competitions were loathed by the same person."
On the bench, Deng Huade did not arrange any tactics, but let everyone open up the space and give the ball to Zhang Guan for processing. On the side of the US team, the players of the US team are surrounded by Shashevsky, and Shashev Skye kept drawing on the tactical board.
The timeout is over and the player comes on. At this time the audience had also stood up, waiting for the Chinese team's final attack.
"Will there be a lore?" Everyone, with this question in mind, turned their eyes to Zhang Guan, and the stadium was filled with a depressed atmosphere.
The Chinese team served and the basketball had just passed to Zhang Guan, Eric Gordon threw himself up.
"Are you pressing the defense at the court? This is not a wise choice. The Chinese team used to be really afraid of the pressing at the court, but since Zhang Guan, the pressing at the court has no effect, and after Zhang Guan breaks through It will also cause a lot of play in a short period of time. Does the US team think that Gordon can stop Zhang Guan?"
"Beep..." At this moment, the referee's whistle suddenly sounded, instantly interrupting the tense atmosphere at the scene.
"Foul, the American team took the initiative to foul, they sent Zhang Guan to the free throw line!" exclaimed on the side of the scene.
Eric Gordon rushed up, but instead of pressing to defend Zhang Guan, he directly fouled Zhang Guan and sent him to the free throw line.
"I get it. Coach K is a good figure. He needs a two-pointer first, and then directly sends Zhang Guan to the free throw line to let Zhang Guan make a free throw. If Zhang Guan makes two free throws, at most the two sides will evenly score, but The ball is in the hands of the American team, and the remaining time is enough for the American team to arrange a tactical cooperation. If there is no penalty for a goal in the championship, the American team will have the lead and the ball. This tactical arrangement is much better than the 5 seconds of attack time left for the Chinese team!"
"Yes, instead of leaving your opponent with 5 seconds, it is better to let yourself take a 15 second offensive power so that the initiative can be controlled by yourself! But I guess only the US team dare to use this active foul tactic. "
In basketball, free throws are obviously the least difficult means of scoring, facing the basket and ignoring defense, the probability of scoring is much higher than any other offensive means. In the view of many coaches, taking a foul and sending the opponent to the free throw line is a mistake. For this reason, in addition to the special "shark hacking tactics", few people in basketball games will take the initiative to commit foul tactics.
In terms of shooting percentage, it is normal for the pitcher to shoot more than 90% of the free throws. The average player's free throw percentage is more than 80%. If it is unsatisfactory, 70% of the free throws are acceptable, like Howard's 50%. The free throw percentage can already be used for hacking.
In ordinary offenses, whether in positional or sports battles, the hit rate of 50% is already very high. The world's top insiders like O'Neal, the hit rate is only close to 60%. The average outside players are also That's a 40% hit rate.
The shooting rate is also 50%, which is an efficient performance in ordinary offense, but it becomes a loophole in free throws. From this point, it can also be shown that free throws are indeed much easier than other scoring methods. So no one will make the opponent's offense easy, and make his own offense difficult, which is one reason why almost no one will choose to take the initiative to foul.
But Shashevsky dared to use this tactic, and the American team dared to use this tactic, because they firmly believed that as long as the ball is in the hands of the American team, they also have the ability to score another two points. Moreover, if Zhang Guan fails to score a goal, the US team will make a big profit.
Zhang Guan made two free throws and the score became 92. Gordon's foul just now was very decisive, and the time went only 1 second. At this time, there is a little more than 14 seconds left before the end of the game, which is enough for the US team to complete a tactical cooperation.
"It's the American team's turn to attack, this time it must be a lore! Durant, Granger, Gordon, Billups, they all have the ability to make a three-point lore!"
"Why use a three-pointer? A two-pointer is enough. The last time was 29 seconds. The Chinese team still has time to make a comeback, but this time it is only 14 seconds. As long as the United States team throws a two-pointer from the buzzer, it can win. Now!"
"It's worthy of coach K. An active foul not only puts the initiative in his own hands, but also flips the advantages and disadvantages."
"Isn't it, but only the American team dare to use this method! And the opponent is the Chinese team, instead of Spain or Argentina, the old K coach will also choose to defend well. But between the Chinese team and the American team The gap is really big. If it weren’t for Zhang Guan’s magical three-pointers, the Chinese team would have lost!

At 14 seconds, 92 to 92, the American team held the ball, and the victory was turned over again. They were still discussing whether Zhang Guan could kill the fans of the American team again, and they turned their directions one after another. , Who will complete this lore.
...
Billups had just received the serve, and Zhang Guan had already rushed.
"Zhang Guan? Is he pressing the defense? He is delaying my half-time with the ball! A smart choice." Billups immediately realized this.
14-second offensive time, not too long, not too short, can almost play a tactical cooperation, if the time of the early dribble is delayed, then the later running tactics will definitely be more hasty, and the probability of scoring Will fall.
Billups did not rush to pass the ball. He worried that he would be cut off by Zhang Guan. Although some time would be delayed, he still waited for his teammate to answer before passing the ball to his teammate.
"Here!" Durant ran directly to the three-point line and received a ball. How did the U.A. keep up with it? He knows that this ball is crucial and determines the life and death of the Chinese team.
The other players of the United States are running non-stop, while Durant stopped the ball. Obviously he waited for the last minute before taking the shot.
However, at this moment, Zhang Guan suddenly abandoned Billups and rushed over.
"Band ahead!" Durant was slightly startled. He stopped the ball without hesitation and raised it high above his head.
"Billups' position is empty! Good opportunity..." Durant waved the ball to Billups.
At this moment, Zhang Guan, like a shell, left Durant and rushed to Billups.
"How could a person be faster than the ball!" Durant pouted, and Billups received the ball.
"Shoot?" Billups didn't hesitate, he got up and jumped directly. At the same time, the afterglow of his eyes saw Zhang Guan flying.
Zhang Guan's people have not caught up with Billups, but people have already jumped ahead of schedule.
"It's so fast, and there is such a high height, I will be covered! I understand, Zhang Guan deliberately abandoned me, he made me shoot intentionally, and then prepared to cover me!" In an instant, Billups made an accurate judgment.
Billups is the oldest man in the Dream Nine team. The 34-year-old has been good in statistics, but has passed the peak of his career. Billups’ greatest strength is its stability. By comparison, his body, bouncing and speed can only be regarded as excellent, not top. Now that he is younger, his bouncing and speed have decreased, but he is also getting smarter.
In the last shot, it wasn’t who whose head was smarter, but who was more accurate in shooting. Billups’s smart head and rich experience did not help him improve the accuracy of shooting, but his age became His biggest enemy. If he switched to Billups five years ago, he would definitely throw this ball without hesitation, but now Billups is not able to jump high and his speed is slow. He knows that if he shoots himself, Eighteen out of ten will be covered by Zhang Guan.
"Pass!" Billups waved. Instead of shooting, he threw the ball to Granger in the air.
...
Granger did not expect that he would be the one who completed the final attack. Although he is the leader of the Pacers, his status in the Mengjiu team is more general. As a small forward, he wants to compete with Durant, Iguodala, Rudy Gay, and facing these three opponents, he has no advantage.
Durant is the core of the Dream Nine team, Granger does not need to compare; Iguodala is much more versatile than Granger, this all-around fighter player is deeply loved by Shashevsky, so Igo Dara can occupy another starting forward position. Rudy Gay is about the same height and weight as Granger, but Gay is younger, stronger and more energetic than Granger.
Granger's offensive method is mainly shooting, but he is not the kind of Ray Allen's cold three-point killer. He needs the ball and the tactics specially formulated for him to have a stable play, but in the dream In the nine teams, it is impossible to use Granger as the core of the tactics. The dream nine team really needs the kind of killer who can't get a three-pointer. So many times.
This time, Granger's main task was only to attract defense, so he always stood outside the three-point line, especially when the ball was in Durant's hands. Granger had already guessed that there was nothing to do next. .
However, Durant passed the ball to Billups.
Granger still didn't think it had much to do with him, because Billups was completely open and he must have taken the ball directly.
But Billups was worried that he would be covered, so he passed the ball to Granger.
Granger was completely unprepared, and then jumped up and shot.
...
"Granger, three-pointer! Out of the box, rebound!"
Love rushed forward and caught the ball, but his position was not suitable for immediate offense.
But time was running out, Love made great efforts and chose to dunk directly.
"Slap!" Roughly waved his hand and directly covered the ball.
After all, he is very experienced. After he didn't grab the rebound, he immediately blocked the offense line of Le Fu. Le Fu forced the attack and could only be covered.
Almost everyone rushed towards the ball, and the scene suddenly fought side by side.
"Got it!" Iguodala grabbed the ball in his hand.
"Beep!"
A flute sounded at the same time, this is the end of the game.
"The game is over, 92 to 92, a draw, overtime! (Unfinished to be continued.)
