Chapter 1329 1328. Zombie Jump Shot (25)

Rondo wants more command power. He needs more command power during the rotation phase.

But he usually plays with Jason Terry, so Rondo doesn't have many opportunities to mobilize his teammates.

But this time is different. McGrady likes talented players. Just like when he first met Liu Mang, he felt the difference between Liu Mang and others and admired Liu Mang. He also admired Rondo. When Rondo directed the defensive position, McGrady was willing to do it.

The main thing is that McGrady also has that awareness. He understands it at once. Unlike Jason Terry, he is active in defense, but he has no defensive ability and no defensive awareness.

Battier and Korver are also very good team defensive players. Battier is good at single defense and assist defense. Korver is good at assist defense. Kwame Brown is almost the best player in the league in one-on-one defense. Coach Kruger changed this lineup and hesitated whether to keep Liu Mang on the court. He wanted to limit the Rockets by defense.

Unexpectedly, Rondo did better than Liu Mang!

In terms of assisting defense and stunning blocks under the basket, Rondo may never be able to match Liu Mang in his life, but the overall view... is not on the same level!

What Rondo lacks is an opportunity! An opportunity to show his ability as a coach on the field!

Liu Mang was very excited and excited when he listened to the system's prompts!

Rondo's ability and experience are still immature, but this guy is a genius who can develop his talent in one or two years!

He is a genius!

"Feature: Genius level 1 trigger, from Rajon Rondo."

"Genius level 1: 1: Initially possess the command ability of a coach on the field. The stronger the teammates, the stronger the command ability. When teammates are willing to cooperate, they can fully mobilize the correct positions of teammates on the defensive and offensive ends; 2: It is extremely difficult to develop excellent personal offensive ability. He is too cautious about shooting, often putting teammates in a four-on-five situation."

Rondo's golden hoop is good at his team command ability, but his shortcomings are also obvious. In addition to the footsteps under the basket after the breakthrough, he has no other personal offensive ability. With a height of 1.85 meters, it is difficult to pose a particularly big threat to Bynum, who is 2.15 meters tall.

However, no one is perfect. Liu Mang didn't make a mid-range shot back then, but he was also played miserably by Kidd.

When playing against the opponent's rotation lineup, Rondo can make his rotation lineup play in an orderly manner and play out the tactics, which is enough!

When Rondo went up, there were some changes on both the offensive and defensive ends.

In general, the offense is still based on Princeton's passing and cutting style, because Rondo's style of play is different from the beginning. He doesn't hold the ball all the time like he did in the Celtics, but guides his teammates to pass the ball as a commander.

The defensive end is still a single defense under the basket and a high-speed rotation on the outside.

But there have been some small changes in this game, changes in details!

The key point is that the Hawks have a good team atmosphere from top to bottom since Liu Mang, giving young players tolerance for mistakes. At the same time, when young players have their own unique insights, they are willing to try to cooperate, which has produced a little change.

And this change in details made the Rockets unable to adapt all of a sudden!

In the second half of the first quarter, the Hawks played a wave of 16 to 4 for 5 minutes!

31 to 19, the Hawks suddenly opened the score difference to 12 points!

Coach Kruger is now determined to give Liu Mang some rest time even if he would rather kill McGrady and Kwame Brown. He will keep two core starters on the court and let Rondo have very good teammates to help him implement his tactical ideas. The changes of the Hawks made the young players of the Rockets unable to adapt all of a sudden, which was very awkward.

However, Rondo is still young, too young.

After the start of the second quarter, Rondo's amazing performance made Coach Kruger continue to keep him on the court and replaced him with Jason Terry, Battier, David Lee, and Rasheed Wallace.

Van Gundy's defensive end is not a vegetarian. The Van Gundy brothers' on-the-spot reaction is not very good, but they gave half a quarter to study Rondo, a rookie, and thought of a solution.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Rockets targeted Jason Terry and David Lee, and played a small climax of 11 to 5, narrowing the score difference to 6 points.

…

“System boss, use the intermediate superstar value lottery, specify the action package!”

“Host uses the intermediate superstar value lottery, specifies the action package, consumes 10,000 superstar value…”

“Ding… Congratulations to the host for Russell Westbrook’s zombie jump shot.”

Zombie jump shot…

Looking at Westbrook’s tense vertical jump without a backward jump shot… It’s so awkward! The onlookers all felt awkward.

The sniping of Curry and the ball seemed to be a smooth action, but Westbrook’s zombie shot…

Forget it, just use it, it’s at least 10,000 superstar value.

The Hawks called a timeout in the fourth and a half minutes of the second quarter.

Through the first quarter, Coach Kruger felt that this game could not be wasted. Unlike some playoff teams composed of old hands, the Rockets’ new forces could not be careless. Liu Mang, McGrady and Granger were going to play, and they had to curb the opponent’s defensive counterattack in the second quarter.

Liu Mang had already received the instructions for playing. After the timeout, he came to the court to try out the shooting bag. He felt... not bad. The stronger Liu Mang's shooting ability was, the faster he adapted after changing the shooting bag.

In the first half of the first quarter, Iguodala judged Liu Mang's habitual action before shooting very well. He knew Liu Mang's playing style very well, so Liu Mang had to make some changes.

The 38 push shot was not advisable, so Liu Mang drew a new action package. Luckily, it was a shooting package, so he made do with it.

It was rare to enjoy the leading advantage created by the rotation lineup. After playing more than a dozen games this season, Liu Mang was used to the substitute digging a hole. Suddenly, there was a 6-point lead when the rotation lineup went down, which made him feel quite excited.

…

After the timeout, the Hawks replaced Liu Mang, McGrady, Granger, Marion, and Kwame Brown. Except for the beginning and the final stage of the game, if they failed to play a huge lead, the Hawks would still send one or two first- and second-year players in the rotation lineup. This is also the reason why the Hawks have the nickname of "Conscience Team" this season. They can play until the fourth quarter to decide the winner against anyone.

After being beaten 11 to 5, the Hawks' lead was reduced to 42 to 36.

The Rockets replaced Bynum, who played for nearly 17 minutes in a row, with Mutombo. Mutombo averaged 19 minutes per game this season, scoring 3.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks. He is quite good. With a height of 2.18 meters and good defense under the basket, he is the most important part of the Rockets' bench.

But his age... has become a mystery in the NBA...

The other four players of the Rockets are Luther Head, Iguodala, Gay, and Juwan Howard. The Rockets' rotation is very good. They can temporarily rank eighth in the West, not just by fighting hard. Last year, they did not give up, which made their role players grow a lot and became important helpers for the Rockets' three young players to lead the team to rise.

The Hawks attacked, and Liu Mang advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

What are the characteristics of Westbrook's mid-range and long-range shots...

Iguodala came up to defend Liu Mang, and he didn't care about the help and backup defense of others, and he didn't care about it at all.

Iguodala is very clear about Liu Mang's characteristics. He may not be so good at defending other superstars, but he is really good at defending Liu Mang!

Liu Mang directed his teammates to open up space, and then played singles at the top arc. In this lineup, Liu Mang and McGrady would be wasted if they didn't play singles. Liu Mang, McGrady, and Granger are all excellent rebounders among outside players. The two inside players who average 10+ rebounds per game would be sorry for themselves if they didn't play singles.

Liu Mang dribbled the ball and suddenly grabbed the ball and pulled up!

Iguodala jumped up quickly and interfered, almost at the same time as Liu Mang! The defensive prediction was quite in place!

But something unexpected happened. Liu Mang did not shoot when he reached the highest point, nor did he lean back. Instead, he relied on his 97-point bounce, which was slightly better than Iguodala's 94-point bounce. He tensed his body in the air and stayed in the air for a short time. Both of them fell down. When Iguodala was guarding against Liu Mang's jump pass, Liu Mang threw the ball out at this time...

"Ding... King of Pull-Ups Level 5 is triggered, Sharpshooter Level 5 is triggered, the host ignores the rhythm of this jump shot..."

"Shua..."

When Iguodala felt extremely strange, Liu Mang made a hollow three-pointer!
