The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master

There are also real bets and fake bets in betting. Previously, the follow-up terminology used in Texas Hold'em was obviously a fake bet.

The two of them are dueling, but the purpose of the dueling is to solve difficult balls and solve the team's opening momentum. It is to drive the offensive rhythm of the whole team, but it is by no means to compete with the opponent in the first quarter.

Because both sides actually knew very well that the winner could not be determined by relying on the first quarter alone.

The reason why I keep shouting 3bat and 4bat is because I want to let the other party take the lead. I forget my own responsibilities for the sake of face and so-called personal honor.

This is a fake bet.

But betting on the ring is a real bet.

And in this real bet, there is also the intention to continue to deepen the 'fake bet', making the other party unable to distinguish between true and false, and motivating the other party to continue to take advantage.

Both of them have a lot of twists and turns in their minds.

Lin Dong is not sure whether Jordan has seen through himself.

But from the moment Jordan said he wanted to bet on the ring, Lin Dong knew that the old guy was not really on top, but was just trying his best to get on top.

At this time, the performance of teammates is crucial. What the old gangster is waiting for is an opportunity on the outside. During the duel between him and Lin Dong, he can attract the attention of other Sonics and make other Sonics feel Those two people couldn't pass the ball for the time being, and they were the first to expose their flaws because of their slackness.

Under normal circumstances, he should remind his teammates, but Lin Dong did not choose that.

Reminding his teammates means that he has seen through Jordan's strategy, which will arouse the vigilance of the old gangster. The tension between the two teams will continue, and the duel between the two will continue, and the balance will not be broken. Although he will not suffer a loss, but Can't take advantage either.

So he chose to shut up, because the Sonics still have a guy on the same level as him and Jordan, a guy who is absolutely worthy of his trust, and it would be a waste not to use it.

Crisis Crisis always breeds vitality in danger.

Just like the Sonics' rotation defense, this is a "flaw" for the Sonics, but it is also an opportunity for the Sonics.

Wizards ball possession.

When Jordan reached beyond the three-point line with the ball and stabilized his position, all the eyes of the audience were focused on him and Lin Dong.

Not just the fans, but other players from both teams.

It is almost everyone's consensus that these two people are going to duel. Except for Sakuragi Hanamichi, who has been determined to fight Yao Ming from the beginning, and Dayao, who is obsessed with him and is working hard, the other Sonics The defense seems to be much more relaxed than at the beginning.

At this time, the Wizards' formation does not look surprising. It reminds them of the triangle offense they have frequently used before.

The left side is the 'weak side' formed by Jordan outside the three-point arc and Tyronn Lue at the baseline three-pointer, while the right side is the strong side triangle composed of Yao Ming, Artest and Harrington.

This is the formation Jordan used to use in isolation before, which is to open up space for him on the weak side. This is the first layer of paralysis given to Sonics players.

Yao Ming was still in the position of squeezing in from the three-point line, and Harrington was in the penalty area and was tightly entangled by Iguodala. This offensive triangle, which was originally very powerful, allowed the Wizards to change positions. The advantage under the basket is not obvious enough, and Yao Ming has Sakuragi Hanamichi on the outside to withstand the rush, so this triangle strong side also lacks the basis for change. At the same time, Artest in the right three-point corner is blocked by Payton. Watching closely greatly reduces the defensive vigilance of the strong side position.

This is the second layer of paralysis given to Sonics players.

On the third level, the atmosphere of Jordan's singles has reached its peak with the shouts and cheers of the audience.

- Michael! Michael! Michael!

The deafening shouts made the defenders on the strong side almost completely drop their guard.

Just when everyone's attention was on Jordan, Harrington on the inside suddenly made a reverse movement and rushed towards Yao Ming.

Off ball screen? Yao Ming wants to play the bottom corner?

Iguodala and Sakuragi Hanamichi both had the same idea in their minds at the same time. Facing Harrington's cover for Yao Ming, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Iguodala had already experienced it.

Harrington stopped Sakuragi Hanamichi, but at the same time Iguodala had already used his position to block, slightly blocking Yao Ming who rushed out, and then Sakuragi Hanamichi turned around flexibly to avoid Harrington's bypass. Running forward and back, he cooperated with Iguodala to block Yao Ming outside the penalty area again.

Perfect defense, but forgot one crucial thing.

Almost at the moment when Harrington and Yao Ming missed each other, Jordan also started a breakthrough. This time, he broke through to the right side, pulling Lin Dong's defensive focus at the same time.

Uh-huh!

A pass without hesitation, the ball flew towards Harrington outside the three-point line.

Over there, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Iguodala were suddenly startled.

Harrington missed!

This ball is not so much that Harrington is helping Yao Ming as a screen, but it is more that Yao Ming is helping Harrington in the pick-and-roll!

Not only did they take advantage of the inertia of Iguodala and Hanamichi Sakuragi's defense against Yao Ming, but they also took advantage of their inertial thinking that Jordan could not pass the ball. They were not aware of Harrington's leak at all.

At this time, the two wanted to intercept him, but they had just intercepted Yao Ming and moved around to the front, but now they were trapped in a cocoon and were firmly blocked by Yao Ming.

The tactic is successful, the ball is there!

With such a big vacancy, Harrington suppressed his excitement, but the next second...

Snapped!

A big hand that shouldn't have appeared suddenly appeared in front of Harrington and snatched the pass.

Glove, Gary Payton!

The level of psychological confrontation between Jordan and Lin Dong obviously cannot be hidden from his eyes.

Not only did he have as many thoughts as those two people, but he also had enough understanding of Michael. Coupled with the "God's perspective" of an onlooker, all of Jordan's thoughts were almost invisible to him.

In addition, Artest's screen effect is obviously better, but the Wizards just let Harrington step forward to cover Yao Ming. If you can't guess the Wizards' intention, then you are called the master of defense for nothing. .

The duel is a duel between two people, but the battle is a battle between five people. As long as he can win the championship, Payton is willing to be the support.

Worried about your knees? That kind of thing shouldn't occupy your heart for even a second.

The previous mistake of being distracted should have been enough to alert me. If I were distracted again, I would be sorry for the nightmare I have had in the past eight years!

"Bring it here!" At this moment, Payton has completely entered the state of the game, so much so that he feels that his whole body is full of energy and fighting spirit, as fast as the wind!

Harrington was stunned for a moment, and the next second, Payton rushed past him with the momentum of stealing the ball, and followed closely by him was a frustrated Artest.

Only then did Harrington react and chase forward, but facing Payton who was leading the way, not to mention him, even Artest could only hang behind Payton, unable to form an effective defense.

A rim dunk.

"Ho!" Payton, who landed on the ground, roared crazily at the surrounding stands. He turned to look at the furious Artest and laughed loudly: "Boy, you've been young for a hundred years!"

Come on, get angry, boy? Give me a push or something...

But this time, Artest just cursed secretly in annoyance: "Fake!"

We can't suffer the same loss again, let alone this is G7.

Even with Artest's bad temper, he knows exactly what role he should play.

Turn the screen for Yao Ming into a pick-and-roll for Harrington. He knows this tactic, and his task is just to contain the most cunning Payton on the right baseline.

But just now I just turned my head and glanced, it was just a moment of distraction, but when I turned around, there was no sign of Payton.

How did that guy see through the Wizards' tactics? How did he know Michael was going to pass the ball?

Scary old guy...

——What a stinking fart! Give him one back!

——God’s defeated generals dare to be arrogant! Have you forgotten how you lost in 1996?

Artest didn't scold him, but that doesn't mean the audience in the arena didn't scold him either.

The stadium, which had just been quiet due to steals and goals, suddenly became crazy, and the whole stadium was noisy.

Jordan frowned briefly and then grinned.

The two ghosts are really difficult to deal with, but the more difficult the opponent is, the more interesting it is, right?

Wizards possession.

Thanks to the fact that Yao Ming did not return to defense during the SuperSonics' fast break counterattack just now, he finally found his position under the basket early this time. Yao Ming's appearance under the basket seemed to mean that a 2-pointer had been obtained.

Dayao stood on the inside of the paint area and blocked Sakuragi Hanamichi firmly behind him. This kind of ball was not considered at all. Jordan made a high lob and received the ball steadily without taking another step forward. Save it. With a slight step of strength, he made a small hook with his head turned, and scored the ball steadily with an extremely soft touch.

4:7.

But when he turned around, the Sonics players seemed to have been completely stimulated by Payton's activity just now.

Run and gun!

Jordan entangled Lin Dong and Artest to defend Payton, then Brent would organize it, and the other two played without the ball.

While Brent passed the midfield with the ball, other players on both sides were already engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Sakuragi Hanamichi continued to block Yao Ming to prevent him from easily returning to the defensive line, but Lin Dong, Payton and Iguodala were already running towards the frontcourt.

When Brent caught the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, the front line was already lined up. Lin Dong used Payton's screen to peel Jordan away and then went straight to the basket.

When Artest blocked the pass, he also attracted Harrington's attention, but he didn't notice that Iguodala, who was defending Harrington, had already rushed towards Brent.

With the help of Iguodala's pick-and-roll, Tyronn Lue was blocked, and Brent jumped high and shot a three-pointer.

Feels good, scored!

4:10!

"Get back on defense!" Payton shouted, yelling at Brent and Iguodala.

The score suddenly opened up quickly, and Payton's urgent voice obviously made the Wizards feel a tight sense of oppression. Artest was eager to attack and score, and wanted to take advantage of the Sonics before they could return to defense and make a fast break. After passing the baseline ball handed over by the referee, he threw it towards Tyronn Lue, who seemed to be unguarded at the three-point line.

But the ball hasn’t even reached Tyronn Lue yet… Bang!

A big hand on the crossbar predicted his passing route early.

Dark green jersey, No. 20, it’s Payton again!

Taking advantage of your illness to kill you, the fight is due to the impatience in your heart at this moment.

Asking Brent and Iguodala to quickly return to defense is to get them away from Tyronn Lue and create an opportunity for Tyronn Lue to "catch the ball" while he himself ambush on one side.

Artest was indeed fooled.

Payton held the ball and went straight to the basket. Artest at the baseline and Tyronn Lue, who had the ball stolen, rushed forward angrily to double-team, but this time Payton did not choose to force the ball.

A ball was handed to Iguodala who came back from behind, and he got up without any interference from the three-point line.

Uh-huh!

The ball was scored again at 4:13, suppressing the nascent arena's decibel level by half.

If we look at the previous games, Jordan might have already cursed out loud, but this is G7 after all, and the harmony within the team is better than anything else.

At this time, he signaled his teammates to calm down and the Wizards had the ball.

Although he remained calm on the surface, Jordan could clearly feel that there were some problems with the morale of the team.

Impatience, worry.

Jordan slightly controlled the rhythm. At this time, he had to resist the pressure to score in order to stabilize the morale of the team.

He passed the midfield with the ball, took a deep breath in front of Lin Dong who was blocking him with all his attention, and after a fake move of lowering his center of gravity and rushing forward, he suddenly withdrew and stood up.

Status 3!

But the next second, the dark green No. 23 was in front of him almost at the same time... No, he even jumped up earlier than himself. Not to mention being deceived by his lowered center of gravity, the other party even jumped up earlier. His 3 points have already been predicted.

Jordan's eyes flashed.

Seal 3 points and let 2 points go?

Lin Dong is betting that if he wants to break out, Lin Dong has even prepared to let him pass...

No, this is not a bet!

Jordan suddenly realized that this was because in that kid's view, a 2-pointer could not affect each other's morale at this moment. Only 3-pointers could create the momentum for the Wizards to chase points and gain momentum.

The other party guessed what he was thinking! It can't even be said to be a guess, because the two people had unusually synchronized ideas, and because the Sonics took the lead with Payton's intervention, breaking the balance of the one-on-one duel, leaving Jordan with no other choice at this moment. You can only choose 3 points!

Fortunately, the shooting speed is fast enough, and in state 3, Jordan feels that there is no possibility of missing the shot. Both the feel and posture of the shot are quite textbook standards.

But he also saw that Lin Dong's body had stretched to the extreme at this time, and he could jump higher than himself.

Bang...

A rather subtle sound made Jordan's expression change slightly.

He was touched!
