Chapter 377 The Fateful Showdown That Continues Today

"Shaq walked towards the free throw line! His expression was a little puzzled and flustered. He seemed unable to understand why some players directly fouled him at the beginning of the game!"

"To be honest, I am also a little puzzled. Shaq's free throws are not good among legendary centers, and even belong to the worst group of people, but is it too much to send him free throws directly? You must know that even Shaq To keep making two free throws and making one, the Jazz also need to ensure that their shooting percentage remains around 50% to be comparable to it."

"You miscalculated, the Jazz plus three-pointers, and the free throws that come with it, about 45% of the shots, can surpass Shaq's free throw efficiency. And with a Karl Malone who has no solution, the Jazz's offensive efficiency reaches 45% The hit rate is not difficult."

The magician looked at Ma Fu in surprise. Are you the legendary top student in the Mathematics Department of Nevada? I can't see that your kid still has this ability.

"Shaq needs to practice free throws." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said in an experienced tone. The legendary center has a career free throw percentage of 72.1%. Opponents will hardly choose to foul him deliberately, because that is to send points. Coupled with the ultra-long height, wingspan and touch, Skyhook Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's offense is very easy and simple. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's scoring is even easier than Durant's shooting, which is crushed by physical talent alone.

Pull out the skyhook's height, arm span, touch, and coordination ability separately. Neither of these items is considered the strongest in history, especially his strength is even less outstanding among legendary centers, but the reason why Kareem Abdul-Jabbar can score 3W6 points is that he can combine them all.

O'Neal stared at the basket for a long time, his mind still a little dazed. He frowned, stared at the basket, curled his huge arms into a ball, and then threw his head like a trebuchet.

"Shua." O'Neill heaved a sigh of relief after hitting the first ball.

Come again!

"DUANG!"

"Rebound!"

"Hey hey hey!"

The players under the basket huddled together, and Malone grabbed the rebound and passed the ball vigorously to Hornacek, who was running early. Hornacek cuts to the basket, avoids the interference of Eddie Jones, and hits two points with a throw.

"It's so fast! The Jazz's tactics seem to be completely different from offense to defense!" The magician is a natural rhythm processor, and he is keenly aware of Jerry Sloan's tactical thinking for the Jazz.

Defensive free throw against O'Neal! Try to weaken the scoring ability of the Lakers' four outside lines to the extreme. Whenever the Jazz has a defensive loophole, the first time is to attack O'Neal and let O'Neal make free throws. Instead of choosing to let the Lakers' four sharp guns on the outside fire.

On the offensive end, in addition to Ma Long's singles, Horry added defensive counterattack tactics. The team's rhythm is not constant and slow, but suddenly exerts force at some times, so that the team's offensive rhythm speeds up!

"Smart tactical adjustments. It seems that Sloan has made a lot of preparations after the game. The Jazz should prepare for the Lakers as their opponents in the Western Conference Finals."

"However, we still have to see if it is effective. Shaq's free throws are not bad at every critical moment, as long as the free throw percentage is up. The Jazz's offensive efficiency is always inferior to free throws. And the more free throws the player takes, It just keeps getting better and better.”

Kobe ran back to the half court, and he also understood Sloan's tactical adjustment for the first time. It is worthy of being a coach of Qiansheng at the historical level. Even if his on-the-spot ability is not good, he can always find an adjustment solution after the game. This is also an important factor in whether a team can go far in the playoffs. The coach of the team can always have different contingency methods to solve the problems in the previous game.

After receiving the ball, Bryant looked around and found that the Jazz did not choose to foul Shaq immediately.

And when the team's tactical running position rotated a full circle, Dell Curry just ran out of the open space and was about to catch the ball.

"Beep!" Dick Bavita blew the whistle.

"WTF?" Shaq looked at Ostertag, who was like an octopus, with his hands and feet wrapped around his body, and several huge question marks appeared in his head.

Kobe was also speechless, especially when O'Neal walked to the free throw line again and made a three-point free throw, Kobe seemed to have returned to the season when Howard played by his side. It was really painful for Kobe to watch their free throws. Kobe frowned. The feeling of putting the relationship between the outcome of the game on Shaq's free throws is really impressive.

pain.

"Three non-sticks! Shaq made a three-no-stick free throw!" The magician stared round his eyes, in disbelief. Although Shaq's free throws were terrible, but a basketball novice can only make three free throws. The matter still surprised the well-informed magicians.

Immediately laughed.

The magician and Abdul-Jabbar laughed together, looking at O'Neal who raised his hands and stared at his hands in disbelief. The magician and Abdul-Jabbar couldn't bear it anymore.

"The situation of this game may be different from what everyone guessed." Ma Fu guessed.

And on the other side of the American Republic, in the far east, in the sinful land of Chicago, the Windy City. Also beyond everyone's expectations.

"Go in! Joe Dumars! Still Joe Dumars! Dumars made his third mid-range shot in a row with a pick-and-roll!"

"Accurate! So accurate! Dumars' state today reminds us of the playoffs in 1988-89. At that time, he also faced the Red Bulls and regarded Michael Jordan as nothing! Swept Chicago 4-0! At that time, Joe Dumars was a god! But today, will the Bulls usher in the revenge of Detroit and the revenge of Joe Dumars, the FMVP, at their home court?"

"Michael's face changed! He seemed to recall the shame of being bloodbathed by the Pistons! This year Michael's temper is a bit grumpy. I don't know if it is because Kobe ruined too many good things for him? As a result, Michael is no longer willing to be a cog in the triangle offense. .”

"One-on-one! Michael Jordan got everyone out of the way! He's going to fight Joe Dumars!"

"Bullfight! The bullfight between the two strongest shooting guards in 1980! In the 1980s, this scene happened many times, and in the 1990s, Jordan had already thrown this former opponent far away."

"Michael Jordan's continuum changes direction and tries to break through!"

"Prevented! Joe Dumas blocked! Quick side-sliding step! Joe Dumas' lateral movement speed seems to have returned to its peak, moving laterally as quickly as a cheetah, blocking Michael!"

"Michael leaned back! He used his height advantage to force a shot!"

"Hit! Michael went straight back to half court without a word, and Joe Dumars took possession from Grant Hill!"

"The duel of fate! It continues to this day!"
