But the slap in the face came too quickly.

After [Old Rogue] scored, Das pushed forward with the ball.

He had played for 36 minutes in this game.

For him, if he only executed ball control, shooting and dribbling, then there would be no problem with his physical fitness.

(In this game in the original history, Damon Stoudemire played for 46 minutes and scored 30 points, 11 assists and 4 rebounds!)

Next, he only needs to dribble the ball steadily to the frontcourt, and someone will naturally take over the basketball.

Besides, it’s the last moment, and the offensive pressure is no longer on him!

Didn’t you see the red-haired kid in his family, the one with the brightest hair color in the game.

(The other one with such bright hair color has gone down!)

Already standing firmly on the sideline of the right wing penalty area, using his right elbow to separate Bill Wennington, holding his left hand high to ask for the ball!

Das passed the ball directly to Hanamichi. At this time, the Bulls also realized that in the last quarter, the offensive core of the Raptors was the newcomer Hanamichi.

So they narrowed the inner defense circle in a targeted manner, but did not leave a particularly large space for the Raptors' outer line to ensure that they could return to defense in time.

Das's three-pointer in this game, 6 of 8 shots, was too lethal!

This is why they adopted this defensive strategy that seemed to be [offensive when advancing and defensive when retreating], and both inside and outside defense.

As soon as Hanamichi got the ball, [basket positioning machine] Luke Longley came up to double-team him!

Yes, in fact, the method to deal with Hanamichi is very simple.

In the previous few games, except for the Magic, the opponents of the Raptors have already demonstrated to the Bulls:

At the critical moment, let this red-haired boy [left and right as men]!

And now the situation on the court is that there are three players of the Raptors who have the ability to score independently.

Needless to say, the explosion in the second and third quarters has already doomed his physical consumption to be insufficient to support him to take up the offensive responsibility again in the fourth quarter and do more things!

Tracy Murray was beaten up anyway in the face of the personal supervision of the [Old Rogue], and he had no time to care about anything else!

Only Hanamichi was still very active in the interior!

Therefore, Phil Jackson also saw this point and decisively issued the order to double-team in the last quarter.

Even if it was to force Hanamichi to pass the ball, it would be better than letting him dig in the interior alone!

But it’s not nice to say it, it’s always other teams that use double-team tactics against the Bulls’ adult.

When did the audience see the Bulls double-team players from other teams?

Maybe in the playoffs and finals, but what kind of players were they?

O’Neal! Olajuwon! Even Karl Malone didn’t get this treatment!

But the Bulls’ head coach~the famous father prototype “Zen Master” missed one point: that is time!

The Bulls started to double-team the full-strength Hanamichi in the fourth quarter, and consumed his energy by making him uncomfortable.

If this was done from the beginning, it would be fine, just like the Hawks did.

But if it was done from the fourth quarter, especially if the double-teamer was Luke Longley, who played for a long time, consumed a lot of energy, and was frightened by Hanamichi, to perform the double-teaming task.

Then we can only wish the Bulls good luck with the [double-teaming tactics]!

Look, when Luke Longley came up to double-team, Hanamichi did not immediately back up to the inside.

Instead, he took a big step diagonally to the free throw line, then half-turned, held Bill Wennington horizontally with his left arm and jumped up.

At this time, Luke Longley had not yet formed a complete double-team circle for Hanamichi.

Hanamichi played a [hook shot] against Bill Wennington and completed this attack!

Landon Malone excitedly untied his tie on the sidelines and waved his fist ~ It was a relief!

If he was worried about the injury of Flower's physique during the tryout a few months ago, he is now grateful for Flower's soft touch!

"The other 29 teams in the league should pay attention!"

Bill Walton coughed his throat, not embarrassed by being slapped in the face by Flower at light speed, and said seriously:

"A low-post killer with potential not inferior to Karl Malone is rising!"

"Maybe the title of [Basket Bully] is really very suitable and in line with Flower's strength!"

"At least he made several head coaches, including the Bulls, adopt [double-team tactics] against him!"

"I think other teams can no longer regard him as a rookie!"

"But now there is a damn serious problem in front of us, that is, Flower's ability is far underestimated!"

At this point,Walton paused for a moment, then continued:

"In terms of physical fitness, he has a very good height and wingspan, and also has excellent speed and athleticism."

"From a technical perspective, he not only has an accurate mid-range shot, but also has skills such as close-range hooks, and it can even be said that his ability to finish at the basket is also very strong."

"In addition, in this game, his passing and control ability was fully demonstrated."

"More importantly, he showed an extremely fast ability to adapt to the league!"

Especially in transition offense, Flower's ability to attract double-teams was personally tested by the Dynasty team!"

"Especially in transition offense, his ability to attract double-teams is very good!"

"This ability is of great help to the team's tactical arrangements."

"In the offensive handling at critical moments, the ability to attract double-teams often reflects the degree of a player's basketball offensive threat!"

"At this point, I want to give Flower a five-star rating! ”

“Finally, it is worth mentioning that his ability to finish after confrontation is also above the league level. ”

“For such a young and comprehensive 18-year-old rookie, I really can’t understand why a team with a few top picks would give up a potential inside player like him!”
