Eight Hundred and Ninety-Four. The Future that Scares Ross

When Tim Hardaway saw Sun Ce returning to the bench, he was shocked. He felt that someone could learn his crossover breakthrough and change of direction!

Before Iverson, who was the strongest in breakthrough?

Not Anfernee Hardaway, not Dominique Wilkins, not Julius Irving, not even Jordan, but Tim Hardaway.

Unfortunately, his breakthrough requires too much physical strength. He must be fast enough, have good agility, good combination of man and ball, and good enough ball control. The burst speed is secondary. The key is to be able to withstand the grass.

It is similar to Iverson's breakthrough. If Tim Hardaway's breakthrough is not resistant to the grass, he will soon play himself out, like himself.

Although Iverson is super resistant to the grass, he has another type of breakthrough, which is not inferior to him, and his reputation is more prominent than his. If he goes to teach Iverson, he will not pay attention to him.

Sun Ce meets many requirements. He is fast, agile, works hard, and is tough... But his ball control and combination are not very good. He is good at ball protection because he is big, and when the opponent wants to steal his ball, he will not care about his face. He will protect the ball with his butt sticking up.

His combination is average. It is hard to say whether he can reach the average level of perimeter players. Talent is one reason. Even if he has the talent of ball sense, he needs to practice from childhood to adulthood. It cannot be achieved quickly. It may be possible to improve it quickly in a short period of time by hard practice, but this is more like "practice makes perfect" than other skills.

But today, this kid should have exploded. Seeing Sun Ce's completely different combination of man and ball after the explosion, and his super ball sense, Tim Hardaway saw hope!

Who doesn't want his famous skills to be learned by other players in the future? In the NBA, no one wants to be forgotten by fans or future players. People like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Russell, Chamberlain, Jordan, and Kobe don't care. They will not be forgotten.

But as strong as Grant Hill is, few young fans now remember his glory in the past, even if he is still playing in the NBA.

…

Sun Ce felt a burning gaze when he returned to the bench, and suddenly the system prompt came again.

"Because Tim Hardaway has a strong desire to teach the host to crossover and change direction breakthrough.

Humility:

Learning object: Tim Hardaway.

Learning goal: The pre-learning content of crossover and change direction breakthrough learning has been opened.

Learning progress: Wait for Tim Hardaway to arrange the learning content."

"…"

After Sun Ce completed the learning bonus effect opening event of Tim Hardaway's humility section, he thought about learning breakthrough, but he didn't know how to bring it up, because he didn't have the conditions to learn Tim Hardaway's change direction breakthrough at all, and there were too many areas that needed to be strengthened, so he put this matter aside for the time being.

I didn't expect Tim Hardaway to take the initiative to teach him, and it came so suddenly.

"Is it because of my breakthrough just now? Who cares? Someone is willing to teach me how to control the ball and combine the ball with the player. That's great!"

Sun Ce put this matter aside first. The most important thing for him now is the present moment!

Compared with the Bulls who made a fuss and were at a loss, the Grizzlies had experience. Coach Hollins immediately emphasized defense and Tony Allen's running position, and directly took the tactical board and marked several possible running positions for Tony Allen to see.

Although the game process is uncontrollable and it is unknown whether there will be opportunities for such running positions, it is better to give instructions than Tony Allen just rushing into the defensive range of the opponent's center.

The lineup has not changed. It is still the same lineup. It is emphasized that the opponent may replace Noah, who is better at passing and defending and faster, and pay attention to the opponent's pick-and-roll and high-post coordination.

...

After the timeout, the Bulls really replaced Noah in advance and replaced Asik.

Although Noah played for 15 minutes in the first half, Sloan arranged an average playing time of 32-35 minutes for him this season. He will probably play at least 20 minutes in the second half, but occasionally he will play more than that, such as today.

Sloan hopes that his team can soar in this shortened season. The Grizzlies are obviously one of the imaginary opponents in the finals. They have already lost to the Grizzlies once. Only by winning the second time can they have a psychological advantage and must fight.

In the usual games, they are used for protection, in addition to extending the players' careers, and also to deal with the games in front of them.

In the Bulls' offense, Sloan not only changed players, but also arranged a double pick-and-roll breakthrough tactic for Rose, deceiving Sun Ce's help defense. Rose passed the ball to Noah after a pick-and-roll, retreated and cut in a different direction. Sun Ce failed to help defend in time, and Noah and Rose cooperated in the high and low positions to score two points.

The opponent played like this, and the Grizzlies' defensive confidence was not affected. This style of play is actually very easy to limit. It is too complicated. Just block one link. Because there are only three people coordinating, Korver and Luol Deng are the points of containment. It is easy to find a defensive method for three people to play such a complicated tactic.

Sun Ce received the serve and advanced to the front court. Luol Deng took small steps to prepare to prevent Sun Ce from breaking through.

To defend Sun Ce, Ronnie Brewer, who has stronger athletic ability, is more suitable, but Ronnie Brewer's coming up has a great impact on the offense. The Bulls' offense is originally poor, and this season is not as good as the Grizzlies. Facing the explosive Sun Ce, they can only bite the bullet.

Luol Deng, who was shaken by Sun Ce just now and sat on the ground, tried hard to hint himself to be careful this time.

With this mentality, it is obvious that Sun Ce will be even more unable to defend against him. Amid the exclamations of the fans, Sun Ce suddenly moved to the left. When Luol Deng hesitated, he was already more than one meter away from the position where Sun Ce was defending his breakthrough. It was impossible for him to catch up. Sun Ce broke through the middle!

Luol Deng's defense was as bad as it could be this time. Fortunately, Korver blocked it in time. Sun Ce changed direction to the right, and Noah also defended in place. In addition, the current lineup of the Bulls has strong athletic ability. Gibson immediately switched to defend Gasol, and Rose followed closely with Paul George. Luol Deng's single defense was very bad this time, but he immediately rushed to the right corner.

Tony-teacher's running position was a pit again, just as pit as Ronnie Brewer.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded and was about to lose his dribbling space, Sun Ce took the initiative to turn his back to Noah, hit the ball, bumped Noah, and turned over and made a fadeaway jump shot to play one-on-two...

Noah was not affected too much by Sun Ce's collision, and rushed over immediately, but Noah's reach was not as high as Sun Ce's, and his bounce speed was far behind Sun Ce. The key was that tonight, Sun Ce's bounce temporarily increased to the A+ level, and there was also the bonus of the King of Turnaround Jump Shot Level 1. Noah hardly interfered with Sun Ce. Korver next to him was just a decoration if he didn't double-team him.

Sun Ce made a close-range turnaround fadeaway jump shot!

Most of what Iverson could do, Sun Ce could barely do. Some of what Iverson could do that Sun Ce couldn't do, he didn't do, and this kind of close-range fadeaway jump shot against the center, which Iverson couldn't do, Sun Ce could also do!

Derrick Rose, who was following Paul George at the top arc, looked at Sun Ce's one-on-two fadeaway jump shot against Noah and was about to doubt his life.

How to defend against this?

And there is another point, Sun Ce's explosion has become a normal state, although there are only about 10 times in a season, and the playoffs must be included, but most people think that Sun Ce has the potential in this regard.

"What do you mean this guy has a limit to his talent, he can be one of the five best but not the best, which expert said that? Are you sure you have eyes?"

Rose cursed in his heart, but as the leader of the team, although he is one of the youngest players in the team, his strength and leadership temperament are the strongest in the team, he can't panic.

But when he received the serve and pushed forward, he saw Sun Ce on the opposite side following Luol Deng, and thought that Sun Ce might become those ultimate forms in the future - a large version of Kobe or Jordan, a large version of Iverson, a mini version of Durant with faster speed, Howard who can control the ball...Rose felt his scalp tingling.

If you don't grab more honors and two championships before Sun Ce fully grows up, and wait until Sun Ce grows up... Rose thought of the 8 years dominated by Jordan and Olajuwon, how many superstars suffered in their peak years, and when the two were no longer good, Duncan and OK combination came out again!

Putting these pressures aside for the time being, Rose focused on dealing with Tony Allen.

However, the confrontation between Sun Ce and Rose was not broken at all. Sun Ce's ability evaluation was infinitely close to the top, and it was indeed a bit far from Rose's ability evaluation of S-level just over the super giant line.

Moreover, Luol Deng was a little scared of defending Sun Ce, and was timid. On the contrary, there were some opportunities to defend Sun Ce. After all, even Jordan and Chamberlain were not able to beat one in one in their respective peak periods, but they were timid and missed all the opportunities that could appear in certain rounds, giving Sun Ce the opportunity to score three goals in the last two minutes!

Luol Deng was beaten by Sun Ce, but Tony Allen had some ways to limit Rose. No matter how much he could limit, every little bit counts, so that his teammates could help better defend.

In the last two minutes or so, the Bulls' substitutions did not work. Sun Ce made all five shots in the last four minutes, and both free throws were made, scoring 12 points alone!

Passing? It didn't exist!

After the half, Sun Ce played for 24 minutes. His original hit rate of 6 out of 13 shots was less than 50%, but he improved it to 11 out of 18 shots in the last 4 minutes!

27 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 blocks, and 2 steals.

Relying on Sun Ce's 12 points in the last four minutes, and limiting the Bulls to only 5 points in the last 4 minutes, the Grizzlies expanded the score difference to double digits in one fell swoop, leading by 12 points 55 to 43 into the halftime break.

Back in the locker room, Sun Ce took a clean jersey and towel to the bathroom sink, soaked the towel with hot water, wrung it dry, wiped off the sweat, changed into his jersey...the second half continued!
