4:0, Bulls attack.
Jordan caught the ball and advanced.
The last thing he wants to lose is the Pistons. Even if Thomas and Laimbeer are not here, he doesn't want to lose. Besides, Zhou Quan has angered him. Today he wants to give the rookie a good look and let him know that Black Jesus cannot be provoked.
The Pistons used the Jordan Rules, an extreme defense against Jordan, with Joe Dumars at the forefront. He was the first line of defense, the center and the closest outside player, forming a second line of defense behind Joe Dumars. Jordan broke through two lines of defense, rushed in, and knocked him down directly.
Now Jordan is advancing to the right wing with the ball, and Joe Dumars immediately pushes him to the left, because Jordan's breakthrough with the ball on the right wing is the strongest. If he is forced to the left wing, the threat will be smaller.
At this time, John Paxson moved without the ball and entered the right wing.
His organizational skills are average, which is similar to the previous Zhou Quan, but he moves well without the ball, and his open mid-range shots are accurate, more accurate than Jordan's. Among the Bulls, his shooting percentage has always been the highest from outside. Higher than Jordan.
When he is in an open mid-range position, he is the person that Bulls players trust the most. To exaggerate, his mid-range shots are always on target.
In Coach Jackson's triangle tactic, others create space for Paxson, and he takes an open shot from the mid-range. This is one of the fixed tactics.
Although this is Zhou Quan's first game, he is a person who plays with his brain. Understanding each opponent is one of the tasks he has to do before the game.
So when Paxson moves without the ball, especially when he is in the mid-range position, he does not dare to take a step.
He has no other requirements for his debut. The first is to defend well, guard his own people, and then try to help defend other positions. The second is to organize the offense well and help the most advantageous teammates on the field complete the offense. The third is to It's a personal offense. If you have a chance, you'll hit. If you don't have a chance, you won't waste any shots.
Jordan saw that Paxson had no chance. Under the pressure of Joe Dumars, he took the ball two steps toward the top of the key. Suddenly he exerted force, squeezed away the defender, changed direction downward, and shot towards the right elbow area with the ball. .
Zhou Quan was the closest and hurried over to cover up the defense, but it was too late. The emergency stop jumper at the free throw line is one of Jordan's best scoring areas.
"brush!"
At the right end of the free throw line, Jordan made a sudden jump shot and the basketball went hollow into the basket.
"Rookie, you almost guarded me." After succeeding, Jordan's trash talk started immediately.
"Congratulations, Michael, you beat me." Zhou Quan said with a smile.
"..."
Seeing Zhou Quan's unchanging smile, as if he had been punched on a pile of cotton, Jordan felt uncomfortable.
He really wants to punch the fake smile off this rookie's face. He hates this kind of smiling tiger so much. He will chop off 40+50+ on your head later to see if you can still laugh.
"let me."
Seeing Zhou Quan receiving the ball, he knew that Paxson couldn't defend Tie Fist, so he immediately changed defense.
"As expected."
Zhou Quan caught the ball and saw Jordan standing in front, smiled and started to move forward.
The height difference between the two is exactly 10 centimeters. Jordan's wingspan is 212 centimeters, a difference of 12 centimeters. He can cover Zhou Quan and double his defensive effect.
In terms of tonnage, Jordan is 98 kilograms, which is 3 kilograms heavier than Zhou Wei.
But in terms of muscle content, Zhou Quan, who is 10 centimeters shorter, is better than Jordan. Even if the tonnage is 3 kilograms smaller, he should be stronger in terms of strength.
In terms of movement speed, Jordan, who can run 100 meters in 10.5 seconds, is definitely faster.
Zhou Quan is very clear about the physical advantages and disadvantages of both sides. He cannot go around. Jordan, who is faster and has longer legs, will retreat faster. So when Jordan blocks the front, he immediately protects the ball with his left elbow and moves forward with strength. Squeezing, there was a direct physical confrontation.
"This kid is short and fleshy, but strong enough. He should be able to take down the entire defense line of the league!" Jordan carried it for a while, but he couldn't hold it anymore, so he had to retreat immediately to avoid being surprised.
He tried to poke the ball, but Zhou Quan's arms were long enough and his position on the ball was too far back to reach him.
As Jordan gave up physical confrontation, Zhou Quan's advancement speed immediately accelerated, taking 4.5 seconds to push past the midline.
After this physical confrontation, he estimated that his strength was level 86, so Jordan's strength should be between level 80-83, one level lower than him.
"Michael can't stop him, Iron Fist can be called a little bulldozer at the No. 1 position!" Robert Guida laughed in the TNT commentary box.
Partner Ringo Wilson nodded and said: "As a hockey player, confrontation is his strength. I think there should be very few defenders in the entire defense line who can handle him, almost none."
Because Jordan switched defenses, Pippen also switched to guard Joe Dumars. Rodman, who was not good at offense, was defended by point guard Paxson, who was basically in an open position.
Taking a step back, Zhou Quan distanced himself from Jordan and then made a tactical gesture.
Seeing this, Rodman on the left wing immediately cut into the penalty area.
Zhou Quan's eyes were also fixed on the right wing, and he also pulled the ball to his left hand, preparing to pass to Rodman.
As soon as Jordan saw it, he immediately moved half a step to the left to block Zhou Quan's left side. At the same time, he quickly waved his arms in an attempt to prevent the latter from passing the ball to Rodman.
"Watch the pick and roll!"
When Pippen on the right saw it, he quickly pointed to the penalty area and loudly reminded his teammates.
At this moment, Joe Dumas took the opportunity to take two steps back and quietly pulled outside the right wing three-point line.
The corner of his right eye was always paying attention to the right wing. At this time, Zhou Quan's left hand holding the ball pulled up the ball, and with a backhand move behind his back, the ball flew towards Joe Dumars.
Joe Dumars holds his hands in front of his chest, which is his favorite position to catch the ball and the starting position when shooting.
As long as he catches the ball in this position, he can directly take off and shoot without having to adjust. If he didn't catch the ball in this position, he would have to adjust again and his shot would be a beat slower.
"Oops!"
Pippen immediately rushed to the three-point line as soon as he saw it.
But it was too late, and the pass was delivered with pinpoint precision, directly into Joe Dumars' hands, and the ball was fast but had almost no spin.
Joe Dumars caught the ball very comfortably. Without any adjustments, he jumped directly and shot. Pippen took off a beat slower.
"brush!"
The basketball was hollowed into the basket, and then a pool of white water appeared.
"pretty!"
In the stands, Zhang Lili slapped his thigh suddenly.
Chuck Daly's eyes lit up. This pass was very good. He made continuous good passes, which showed that Iron Fist was not a flash of inspiration.
But the specifics need to be observed. After all, any player can play a good game, or even play well for a season, and then return to ordinary.
However, he saw one of Tekken's qualities, which is his strong ability to use tactics and his ability to pass the ball to the most suitable teammates.
At the same time, he once again confirmed that Iron Fist's vision was not as bad as the scouts had assessed.
Also, the basic skills of passing are good, especially because of the big hands and strong control. The pass does not spin, but the ball speed is very fast, so the possibility of the receiver letting go is very small.
