Chapter 250 Development Direction
, NBA dynasty sniper
"Brother Dong, Brother Hu..."
When they came out, they saw Zhao Dong and the other three, and Da Zhi greeted them from a distance.
"Da Zhi, you are finally here."
Hu Weidong went over and helped Da Zhi take the suitcase.
"Da Zhi."
After Da Zhi came over, Dayao greeted him quickly.
"Eh."
After glancing at Dayao, Dayao nodded.
"You should have seen it, right?" Zhao Dong asked.
"I've seen him before, but I haven't spoken to him yet, haha." Dayao said with a smile.
Da Zhi also nodded and said with a smile: "I saw him at the National Games. He was so tall. I was quite impressed."
"Okay, let's go."
Zhao Dong called the three of them to get into his Hummer.
"Da Zhi, how are you practicing your English?" he asked as he got in the car and drove.
"It's okay. I kept talking to several trainers in English." Da Zhi said quickly.
"English requires an environment, and I'm almost good at it this season." Hu Weidong said with a smile.
"Can you talk trash?" Zhao Dong smiled.
"hehe……"
Da Zhi smiled and said, "They taught me, but I'm not very good at it."
"Then don't force it, just don't be affected by other people's trash talk." Zhao Dong warned.
"Okay." Da Zhi said.
When they got home, Lindsay and the workers had already prepared dinner.
That night, the tiebreaker of the Western Conference Finals began.
The Jazz finally defeated the Lakers, won the Western Conference championship, and reached the Finals for the second consecutive year.
Compete with the Knicks for a championship.
At three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, the Knicks arrived in Salt Lake City, where the Jazz were, and entered the rhythm of the finals.
That night, TNT launched an NBA program.
Bill Walton hosted and invited several coaches and players, including Pat Riley, Popovich, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Pippen.
Bill Walton said: "First of all, let us discuss the failure of the Bulls in the Eastern Conference Finals. In fact, I was surprised that in the G4 game, two guards were injured, and Ben Wallace and Fordson were abandoned, as well as Bill Puss, the Knicks actually turned the Bulls into scum. Are those small tactics really that strong? Coach Riley, please talk about it first."
"OK."
Pat Riley nodded very gentlemanly, with a cold-looking smile appearing on his thin face.
"At the most critical moment, Nelson played a beautiful tactic. The position was blurred. This is the basketball concept he has always admired." He said.
"It's also a concept you admire." Bill Walton reminded.
Pat Riley laughed and nodded: "Yes, you are right. He found an executor who is most suitable for the tactical concept of position blurring, and that is the flying dragon. In fact, his success also inspired me. It shows that the concept of position fuzzification is feasible.
Talking back to the game, Phil Jackson and his Bulls were caught off guard and were defeated directly. Rodman and Ewing fell at the feet of the dragon one after another. This was the time when the Bulls finally lost the G4 game and the entire game. The reason for the Eastern Conference Finals. "
"How do you think the Bulls should handle this tactic?" Bill Walton asked.
Pat Riley said cautiously: "Based on that game, there were two changes to that tactic. When the Bulls sent Ewing, Feilong played on the outside, using his impact to attack Ewing crazily, and Eventually Ewing fell.
After Feilong destroyed the Bulls' inside line, coach Phil Jackson had to send Jordan to top it. At this time, Feilong went to the low post, once again forming a huge mismatch advantage, and then defeated Jordan. "
At this point, he shook his head with sigh, looked at Magic Johnson and said: "Ervin, you can play five positions, but Feilong's dislocation advantage in the low post and outside far exceeds yours. This is his The place of terror.”
Magic nodded and said: "Old Nelson's tactics made full use of all the abilities of Feilong, and the Bulls did not have enough people to deal with it. This was a flaw in the lineup, and then this flaw was caught by Nelson, and the result was that the Bulls Be eliminated."
At this time, Popovich said: "I think there is another point. The Bulls' defense is not strong enough. Facing the impact of the dragon, we must use strong fouls to stop him."
Pippen said: "What kind of hard foul? He can't be moved on the outside, can't keep up with him on the inside, and even the postman's elbow is useless against him."
Popovich wanted to say that he would do something wrong, but he didn't dare to say it.
Bill Walton took control of the topic at this time and said: "So what I want to know now is, does this tactic work for other teams?"
Pat Riley said: "If you don't have a strong first-class defensive inside line, it will be effective, otherwise Feilong will blow up your inside line in the low post, or use his impact to make your inside line fall at his feet. , or you can only open up the penalty area and let him attack the basket without restriction."
"Is this tactic flawed?" Bill Walton asked again.
Larry Bird spoke up and said: "The Knicks' small lineup in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals was actually very flawed. There were no accurate shooters on the outside, Charlie Ward and Childs had limited offensive capabilities, and John Starr Chris is not stable either.
It's a pity that the Bulls are completely destroyed inside, and they don't have strong defensive inside players. Otherwise, they would double-team Feilong in the low post and force him to pass the ball out. The Knicks would not be able to score from the outside, so this tactic would be useless. "
Several other people nodded, and Magic also sighed: "The Bulls chose to gamble on Ewing, and they lost the bet. If Ewing is not traded, with an annual salary of 20 million, they can choose several good low-post players. and role players, maybe they can handle this tactic.
In fact, when the Knicks injured China Hu and Alan Houston, as well as Larry Johnson's three stable scoring points, the Bulls had the best opportunity. Unfortunately, they fell under the tactics of Feilong and Old Nelson. "
Bill Walton said at this time: "So do you think, let's talk now, can the Jazz cope with this tactic? By the way, it is the double-headed snake tactic that Coach Nelson said. This name is not good, you know, Feilong is A dragon, not a snake.”
"Ha ha……"
Larry Bird laughed and said: "You can also call it the two-headed dragon tactic. When it comes to the Jazz, I don't think there is any suspense."
"Why?" Bill Walton asked with a smile.
Larry Bird laughed: "Postman Malone broke another man's rib with his elbow this season, but his elbow was useless against Feilong. He would definitely be restrained by Feilong. Without his performance, the Jazz basically lost. I don’t even think the Knicks need to play a two-headed snake or two-headed dragon tactic.”
"I also think so. The Jazz lost to the Knicks last year, and their lineup has not changed much this season." Pat Riley said.
Popovich disagreed and said: "Although the Jazz have not changed, the Knicks have changed a lot. They have not...no, ahem..."
He was about to say that there was no more Ewing, but he realized that there was no Ewing in the last finals, so he immediately changed his mind and said:
“They abandoned Ben Wallace, Fordson and Billups who were built this season in G4 and G5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, which means that their lineup adjustment this season was a failure.
Moreover, the three injured players may not be able to return. In fact, the Knicks have not yet pulled them off the injured list.
Therefore, their lineup was very poor, with almost no one available. Their victory over the Bulls was due to the double-headed snake's restraint on the Bulls and the fact that they caught the Bulls off guard.
I think the Postman can hold the Flying Dragon in the low post, he is tough enough, and the Jazz, whose lineup is relatively stable, will have a greater advantage. "
Several other people also nodded, and Pippen said: "Injuries did have a great impact on the Knicks. But the Bulls' loss to the Knicks was not because they were caught off guard, but because they had problems with their lineup and they made the wrong trade. "
This made several people laugh. When Pippen saw it, he quickly shouted: "I'm not talking about me being traded. I'm talking about trading Ewing, which caused the Bulls a huge loss. There was only one Keke left on the bench." Er, but he did not assume the responsibility of the sixth man this season and lost the depth of the bench. The Bulls' failure was actually foreseeable."
After watching this show, the hotel where the Knicks stayed began to get busy. Countless Jazz fans focused on the hotel below, making various noises in an attempt to affect the rest of the Knicks players.
Zhao Dong and Oakley were in the same room. He glanced down and complained: "Charles, do these people really think the Jazz can beat us?"
"Dreaming." Oakley said disdainfully.
The two closed the windows, drew the curtains, took out the prepared earplugs, and got ready to sleep.
"Feilong, I will leave next season, I have decided." Oakley suddenly said.
Zhao Dong was startled and nodded: "The management should be thinking of ways to trade Fordson, but your main position is still not guaranteed, so leave."
Oakley nodded and said with a smile: "Let's talk about it first. When it comes to investment, you can't leave me behind."
"How is that possible?" Zhao Dong laughed.
The next day, June 3rd, was the day of the G1 game of the 1997/98 season finals.
At 9 o'clock in the morning on this day, the NBA officially announced that Zhao Dong won the title of Most Valuable Player of the 97/98 regular season.
In order to celebrate Zhao Dong's first MVP honor, the Knicks held a press conference in the hotel.
At the press conference, the Knicks announced the return of Larry Johnson, Hu Weidong, and Alan Houston.
This news made the media overwhelmingly optimistic about the Knicks' title defense.
Barkley said with envy when facing the media: "Congratulations to Feilong for winning the MVP, and congratulations to the Knicks for successfully defending their title."
"He even gave up his face to hug Feilong's thigh."
Postman Malone couldn't help but cursed when he saw this interview clip on TV.
"Shameless villain who hugs thighs."
Stockton cursed coldly: "He has never been loyal at all, a shameful wanderer."
"well!"
The postman sighed to himself, he really wanted to win a championship.
The Knicks arranged media interviews at the hotel, and a reporter asked: "Feilong, do you think you have a chance to sweep the Jazz in this finals?"
"Ha ha……"
Zhao Dong laughed, and then said: "I'm afraid the league is not happy for us to sweep the Jazz. How about we lose an away game, and then go back and use three home games to defeat the Jazz four to one?"
Some media thought his words were too arrogant, but the vast majority of the media recognized that the Knicks have this strength.
After all, the Jazz lost to the Knicks last year, and this year the Jazz did not make much reinforcements, but the Knicks strengthened their rebounding and interior defense.
At 6 p.m., the Knicks entered Delta Arena.
Fans began to enter the venue at 7 o'clock, and Lindsay and her wife group also began to enter the venue. At the same time, Dayao and Dazhi also entered the venue.
Zhao Dong didn't bring Da Zhi to the public because he didn't want Da Zhi to be known to other teams before the draft. There was no need.
He definitely has draft potential in the late first round now, and if he is noticed by scouts, he is likely to be selected in the first round.
But Da Zhi's personality is different from Dayao's. Although it has changed this year, as the old saying goes, a country is easy to change, but a nature is hard to change. Therefore, he is not sure about letting Da Zhi develop alone. What if he is on another team? Didn't type it out? With his character, it's very possible.
In the home team's locker room, several reporters were allowed in for interviews.
"Postman, Feilong said he really wants to have a boxing match with you again. Are you willing?" a reporter from the New York Times asked.
In fact, the Jazz management was not willing to let the New York Times reporter enter the locker room at all, because the Times was definitely on the side of the Knicks.
But to be honest, the Jazz couldn't afford to offend the New York Times, so they could only hold their noses and let the Times reporter in.
No, as soon as he came in, he took a knife and started poking the postman.
Check it out, head coach Jerry Sloan seemed to hear a knife stabbing into the Postman's heart. He was sure that the Postman's heart was bleeding.
Yes, he guessed it right, Karl Malone's heart was indeed bleeding and his eyes were red.
Because of Zhao Dong, the rest of his life will be paid to Adi. Will this make him not hate Zhao Dong? impossible.
However, he did not dare to reveal anything.
"I have no interest in boxing. Things on the basketball court can only be solved with basketball." He said in a muffled voice with his teeth knocked out and blood swallowed.
"Damn it, this is a good attitude. Michael Jordan also had the same attitude when facing Feilong. He never touched Feilong, and he didn't fight back even when he was beaten."
The Times reporter applauded.
"snort!"
The postman hummed and lowered his head to prevent the hatred in his eyes from being caught by the camera.
"Postman, Feilong said he would lose an away game, then return to the home court and beat you four to one. Do you think this is possible?" a reporter asked.
"he……"
The postman wanted to curse, but he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "We will not admit defeat. The fact that we can have the first regular season record in the league shows that we have the strength to defeat any team."
In the visiting team's locker room, Danny Fortson's mood was a little low.
The media has begun spreading the news that he will be traded, which is a huge blow to him.
He doesn't want to be traded. New York is the biggest city, it's colorful, the team is very good, and the boss treats him very well. He doesn't want to leave, not at all.
He is already trying his best to correct his shortcomings. He hopes that the team can give him another chance. He can definitely use his second season to prove himself.
Not just Fordson, but Billups.
Billups is more worried that if he is traded again, he will be finished. No team will believe in him anymore, and his parallel import title will never be washed away.
In other words, Ben has nothing to worry about, because Oakley told Ben that he will leave the Knicks and the team will never trade him.
Zhao Dong opened the system and received the MVP's ten quality points reward.
"System, are there still quality point rewards for FMVP?" he asked.
"Yes, if obtained, there will be no quality point rewards in the future." The system said.
Injury resistance 100, jumping 98, coordination 96, physical fitness 95, speed 90, balance 91, flexibility 95, strength 91
He browsed through his quality information, ready to add some points.
"System, is the speed limited by other qualities?"
Now he has the speed of a first-class defender. If his speed is at full level, with his size and height, he will be the speed of a top speed defender, probably no slower than Iverson.
Now his explosive power should be the most powerful in the league, or the most powerful in the history of the league. If the speed is further improved, the explosive power will definitely increase again.
The reason why his explosive power is so powerful is because of his overall comprehensive quality, coordination, balance, flexibility, strength, speed, etc. Without any one link, it is impossible for his explosive power to be so powerful.
"The strength of the lower limbs must be improved to a super first-class level, and then the speed can be improved to a super first-class level." The system replied.
"Is that so?" He was a little disappointed.
"After successfully defending the title, there will be ten quality point rewards from FMVP, twenty in total, then..." After thinking about it for a while, he decided to make a choice.
If you increase the strength of your lower limbs to level 95, you will need ten quality points. The remaining ten quality points can increase your speed to level 95.
In this case, his balance ability will never be improved and may stay at level 91 forever.
This quality is also very critical, and some complex aerial offensive techniques that test quality will be affected.
For example, pull-up layup, aerial confrontation ability, turnaround and fadeaway jump shot, etc.
But he still wants to increase his speed and his explosive power, because he likes the strong sense of collision and the exciting feeling of knocking people away.
At the same time, he also wants to form his own development direction and form his own unique and most powerful style of play, which is based on impact and supplemented by skills.
This is different from Jordan, whose offensive skills are unparalleled, and he does not want to follow the same path as Jordan.
Decided, he quickly started adding points, raising his lower body strength to level 93 and speed to level 92.
"System, I want to increase my upper body strength in the future. Is it possible through training?"
"Yes, but if you gain weight, your speed will be affected."
"Understood."
The meaning of the system is that you can only increase some upper limb strength through training to reduce fat and increase muscle.
"Hey, the shot blocking has been improved?"
When browsing the information, he unexpectedly found that the level 91 blocks had been increased to level 93, and the other things remained unchanged.
"System, what's the reason for the improvement in blocking shots?" he asked curiously.
"The improvement in the strength of the lower limbs also increases the host's bullet speed and height, thus improving the shot-blocking ability." The system said.
"Then why hasn't the bounce improved?" he asked doubtfully.
"The super-class jumping quality of level 98 is already close to the human limit. It can be improved either through quality points or through talent coverage. Bounce cannot be improved by improving other qualities." The system said.
"I see."
