Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Seeing Butler and Curry looking confused, Qin Hao was also helpless. He couldn't explain this kind of thing to them clearly, so he could only say vaguely: "Let's put it this way, I want to play more in the next games." I want to break through and hone my breakthrough ability during the game. But in this situation, the team needs me to score more, so obviously I should shoot more three-pointers.”

As he spoke, Qin Hao spread his hands and showed a wry smile: "So I'm a little confused, what should I do?"

this......

After listening, both Butler and Curry fell silent. They fell into thinking and couldn't help but frown.

After a long while, Butler spoke first: "I think you should choose the former and continue to hone your breakthrough ability to make yourself stronger."

Little Curry also spoke and said: "I think so too. Now we really need you to score as many points as possible, but can't you also score on breakthroughs? Even if the effect is not as good as shooting three-pointers and the efficiency is not that high, our The goal is the championship, and our test is in the playoffs. We don’t have to take our regular season results too seriously, right?”

"Seth is right." Wood next to him also said earnestly: "Compared with improving your strength, it doesn't matter if you sacrifice some team records. NBA is a place where the winner takes all, and the one who laughs at the end is the king. If doing this can make you stronger and play a greater role in the playoffs, I think it’s worth doing.”

After listening to everyone's words, Qin Hao became cheerful.

"Thank you." Qin Hao said with a smile: "I have figured it out. While working hard to become stronger, I will try my best to play every game as well as possible. In the game, I will still choose to break through more." As he said, He looked at Butler and Curry, "You must be prepared."

"learn."

"Haha, just do it."

The two laughed.

...

The next day, the 76ers sat at home and faced the challenge of the Kings.

When the game started, people were surprised to find that the 76ers' starting lineup had changed today, with Sessions replacing Lou Williams.

"Why did it change to Sessions?"

"The 76ers have changed their starting lineup. Sure enough, there were reports before that the 76ers should adjust, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. But what is the purpose of replacing Lou Williams with Sessions? It seems that Sessions is not better than Lou Williams. how much."

In the audience, people were talking.

Some people are just surprised, but some discerning people have realized what the 76ers are going to do.

On the sidelines.

Kings head coach George Karl also realized the 76ers' intentions. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and told several players: "Be careful about Qin and guard against him."

Several people agreed and walked onto the court.

The game officially started, and the Kings were playing Cousins, Omri Casspi, Rudy Gay, Ben McLemore, and Ray McCollum.

First there was a jump ball. The Kings got the ball. McCollum advanced with the ball. After reaching the frontcourt, facing Qin Hao, he asked for a pick-and-roll and passed the ball back to Cousins.

Cousins ​​took the ball and raised it and made a shooting motion. Nene quickly took a half step forward, stood on tiptoes, and raised one hand high.

The next moment, Cousins ​​smacked the ball on the floor and made a breakthrough. After passing Nene, he rushed inside, knocked Speights away, and hit the ball with a rebound.

Although Cousins ​​has a bad temper and is easily impulsive, he is still very strong and has comprehensive skills. He can attack in the low post, shoot three-pointers, and can break through with the ball.

The goal was scored and the Kings scored first.

The 76ers fought back.

Qin Hao ran directly to the frontcourt, while Sessions stayed in the backcourt to advance with the ball, which surprised some fans.

Of course, some fans are already mentally prepared. After all, what else can Sessions do, but organize an offense?

Sessions pushed the ball into the frontcourt. Qin Hao ran back and came to the three-point line to get the ball. When the ball was passed, he immediately made a shooting motion.

As soon as he saw Qin Hao making a shooting gesture, McCollum's heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously took a step forward and raised his hands to guard against Qin Hao's three-pointer.

However, Qin Hao did not shoot, but made a smooth breakthrough, bursting with speed, and passed McCollum in one step.

"Top defense," McCollum yelled.

Cousins ​​took a step forward and stood a little inside the free throw line, ready to defend, waiting for Qin Hao to come over.

Qin Hao also saw Cousins, but didn't care. He took two steps forward, paused briefly, nudged the pursuing McCollum with his butt, and then jumped up and made a one-handed throw.

"Not good." Cousins ​​murmured that something was not good and jumped up quickly, but it was still too late.

Uh-huh!

There was a soft sound and the ball was scored.

...

After a while.

Qin Hao ran back to get the ball and broke through. First he lowered his left shoulder and tried to break through to the left. Then he changed direction in front of him. McCollum quickly moved sideways, but Qin Hao was too fast and passed half of his body in one step. position, and then squeezed McCollum away.

This time Cousins ​​​​was smart, stepped forward in advance, and stood at the free throw line. Even if Qin Hao took a direct shot, he could interfere or even directly block the shot.

But this time Qin Hao didn't take action directly.

Seeing Cousins ​​​​take another step forward, and there was room in the inside, Qin Hao did not take a direct shot, but went towards Cousins ​​​​. When they were about to touch each other, Qin Hao suddenly hooked the basketball and brought it up. The ball turned around, bypassed Cousins, and scored a layup.

For a period of time after that, Qin Hao almost made breakthroughs. It was not difficult to pass McCollum, but the Kings had supplementary defense.

Even so, as long as Cousins ​​​​defends a little further forward, Qin Hao will easily get past him.

This makes Cousins ​​very angry. Why can't he always guard against it?

At the same time, coach George Karl frowned secretly, a little strange, why did Qin Hao not choose to shoot, but made continuous breakthroughs?

He guessed from the 76ers' lineup change that Coach Luke wanted to liberate Qin Hao from the No. 1 position and focus on scoring.

But what he expected was that Qin Hao would shoot a lot of three-pointers, but he didn't expect that Qin Hao would break through one after another.

This is unreasonable!

Not just him, but the Kings players don’t understand either.

Originally, they were well prepared to guard Qin Hao's three-pointers and prevent him from shooting easily. Not only was McCollum relatively forward and very close when guarding Qin Hao, but Cousins, who was responsible for covering up the defense, also The flutter is relatively forward.

But the result... Qin Hao didn't make a move, everything was a breakthrough.

Isn't this random?

For a time, the Kings' defense failed to grasp the key points, allowing Qin Hao to break through repeatedly, either scoring the ball himself or passing the ball to his teammates to create opportunities for them.

Even Coach Luke was a little confused. Did he not make it clear when he arranged it? Didn't he let him shoot more three-pointers and throw them openly?

Why not a three-pointer?
