Chapter 69 The iconic scoring method

At the end of the first quarter, the Wizards led by 5 points, 25-20.

Michael Jordan took 6 shots and scored 9 points in a single quarter, dreaming back to 1998.

At the age of 38, this is not easy!

Scottie Pippen is really...always trying every means to bring out the greatness of Michael Jordan. Even though the two have become rivals now, they still burn themselves silently.

No wonder everyone wants to find Pippen!

Jiang Dalin understands now.

His success for you is not just in one team, but a lifetime!

I don’t know if I will ever meet a good teammate like Pippen in the future...

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Trail Blazers changed their defensive method. They no longer gave Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen the opportunity to "fight" alone, and began to increase their defense near the free throw line.

Michael Jordan's shooting space was severely compressed.

Efficiency also began to decline.

"Bang!"

Another shot missed.

Jiang Dalin saw the right moment and quickly took off, but Rasheed Wallace interfered with his reach from the side.

"Crack!"

Dale Davis took the lead and protected the ball.

Dale Davis, who is 2.11 meters tall, has been in this league for ten years by rebounding. With the help of Rasheed Wallace, Jiang Dalin has not grabbed a rebound so far in this game.

Over offensive rebound.

Usually at this time, there are at least 1 or 2.

Haywood, who was only able to get stuck and delayed, could not complete a good block against the more mobile Rasheed Wallace. Anyway, in the confrontation game, he was taught how to behave many times.

"With offensive rebounds not guaranteed, the Wizards should find ways to improve their efficiency on every ball!"

"Otherwise, the Trail Blazers will gradually catch up with the score!"

As soon as Kenny Smith finished speaking, the "Little Flying Squirrel" who had passed the ball from the outside for a long time suddenly remembered that he still had a three-pointer, took a shot towards Tyronn Lue, and hit the ball steadily.

"Only 1 point left!"

"The Wizards' lack of powerful breakthrough players was exposed in this game!"

"You can't expect Michael to put the ball into the basket facing an outside defender and two defenders like he did when he was young."

"Now except for Richard hitting three consecutive three-pointers from the outside..."

When Kenny Smith said this, Buckley sneered.

Obviously this method can only be heard as a joke.

In this era, if you are hit with three three-pointers in a row, you will be laughed to death...

My grandma is better prepared than you!

Kenny Smith continued, and what he really wanted to say next was: "There is another way, which is to open up the inside space with the number one pick in China!"

In fact, Jiang Dalin plays behind the basket, forcing the space to be compressed, and Michael Jordan can naturally continue to take mid-range shots. But Jiang Dalin does not have the ability to post up, so he can only fight in a roundabout way.

As long as there aren't that many people inside, Michael Jordan can still attack the frame.

As long as the opponent is forced to retreat to the basket, the Trail Blazers will inevitably leave more space for defense near the free throw line.

And although it is unlikely that Hamilton will score three consecutive three-pointers, his shooting ability can still contain at least one outside defender.

The key question is how Jiang Dalin takes Dale Davis out of the basket.

In this game, the Trail Blazers' defense against Jiang Dalin was very clear.

When he is under the basket, Dale Davis and Rasheed Wallace will not hesitate to flank him once they get the ball, denying him a chance to fight one-on-one.

And when he goes out of the basket, Dale Davis often doesn't follow so closely!

"In his career and this game, the No. 1 pick has taken a total of 11 mid-range shots and only scored 3 goals..."

"This is apparently written in the Trail Blazers coach's notes!"

"Instead of discussing here whether he can play that role next, we should clarify one thing first, that is, the number one pick in China still has the confidence to continue to play... well, he does!"

Kenny Smith was slapped in the face by the speed of light.

Jiang Dalin received the ball without any hesitation. His confident look even gave Kenny Smith the illusion: This guy must have great mid-range shooting ability, right?

"Bang!"

As a result, Jiang Dalin proved that sometimes confidence and being able to make a shot are two different things...

He just dared to shoot, that's all.

This is probably the legendary "good food and fun-loving".

However, Jiang Dalin grabbed the rebound of the missed shot by himself. The kind that he grabbed by force with his own physical fitness!

"Wizards' first offensive rebound of the game!"

"Pass it to Richard!"

"The shot...has no adjustment at all!"

"The ball is in!"

"Wow, this goal is so difficult and so crucial, Richard!"

Kenny Smith looked at Hamilton who was returning to defense with a sigh on his face. Wearing a mask, he looked extremely cold.

At first glance, such a person is someone who can shoot that kind of key three-pointer!

Awesome temperament.

"But you can't expect Jiang Dalin to always grab offensive rebounds like this, and Richard to complete such three-point goals in return. Miracles always bring surprises to people, precisely because they are uncommon!"

But no matter what, Jiang Dalin doesn't need to be so impatient.

Adjust your breathing and pull out again.

Dale Davis still didn't follow.

And because Jiang Dalin didn't make any of his previous mid-range shots, Dale Davis didn't even have a symbolic follow-up defense this time.

Jiang Dalin's most annoying situation still appeared.

He reached for the ball without hesitation.

If Dale Davis didn't follow, he would have enough time to adjust his posture.

"Going to vote again!"

"No matter what, the courage of China's top pick is worthy of praise. Most insiders would not dare to vote under such circumstances!"

And the price for daring to invest...

The ball made a perfect arc and simply fell into the basket.

"That's the answer, Bichi!"

Jiang Dalin cursed fiercely at Dale Davis.

He hates other people missing his shots!

If you don't confront him under the basket, he won't be so angry. After all, not everyone is as talented as his body.

Sister Li.

Damon carried the ball to the frontcourt, and Tyronn Lue followed closely, not giving him any room to shoot.

It also became a little difficult for the rest of the Trail Blazers to respond.

While they increased their defensive intensity, the Wizards also invested more energy on the defensive end.

Scottie Pippen stood up at this time, and after receiving the ball from hand to hand, he deliberately took steps. The standard small forward height of 2.03 meters allowed him to almost reach the basket in two big steps, a slightly elegant

An underhand layup, and the ball went neatly into the basket.

He used this ball to prove that at certain times, he is still worth 18 million, but the Trail Blazers made a bit of a loss when they used 18 million to buy him.

They are not a championship contending team, so there is no need to spend a lot of money to buy these key points.

Moreover, in those years when the Trail Blazers could compete for the championship, Pippen did not show the ability to score key points...

Would you say it's annoying?

Jiang Dalin moved to the outside again, and he deliberately provoked Dale Davis with his eyes.

Will you follow or not?

If you don’t follow, I will vote again!

"Dale doesn't dare to let go anymore!"

"The inside line successfully created space, but...China's top pick still took the initiative to ask for the ball!"

"He's so confident!"

"Actually, sometimes, he can be less confident..."

Michael Jordan gave the ball to Jiang Dalin who wanted the ball. He had not recovered from the heavy siege before. At this time, it would be great if Jiang Dalin was willing to stand up. He can focus more energy on the key points.

time.

Dale Davis pounced on Jiang Dalin as soon as he got the ball. Jiang Dalin missed the opportunity to take action and immediately turned his back to block it.

Close man Dale Davis kept the pressure on.

"Don't think about taking action so easily this time, rookie!"

He was still breathing heavily when he spoke, as if he was running.

"Man, have you forgotten what I'm best at?"

After the handsome inquiry, Jiang Dalin directly exerted his force. His ability to control the ball was not very good, but he did not need the ability to control the ball. He hit the ball hard and Dale Davis couldn't help but take a step back.

Why can he only play power forward when he is 2.11 meters tall? Because he only weighs 104 kilograms!

21 kilograms lighter than Jiang Dalin.

At the basket, he can interfere with Jiang Dalin with his height and wingspan.

But when Jiang Dalin pulled him out, his weakness of underweight was exposed.

In just one moment, the way to the basket suddenly became clear. Jiang Dalin, who had just swatted the ball, took a big step forward, then glide a little, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands.

Like a wild animal tearing at its prey!

Rasheed Wallace looked at Jiang Dalin's appearance and was thankful that his body's instinct had just stopped him...

The cheers of the home fans were like a bomb igniting its fuse and exploding with a "boom".

Cheeks, the rookie head coach of the Trail Blazers, subconsciously plugged his ears, and the sudden burst of cheers made his ears ring.

Scott showed an unsurprising expression.

I've told you a long time ago, this move will definitely become the signature scoring method of China's No. 1 pick!
