On the evening of the 16th, the Nets played at home against the Jazz.The loss to the Grizzlies didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the fans, and the arena was almost full.Last season, the Nets' home attendance was tragic, and even though they reached the Finals twice, they only ranked 26th in the league.Although the Nets can't compare with the Lakers, Dallas, Kings and other teams this season, the twelfth place is much better than last season.The Nets players learned that ESN reporter Abby was Wang Jun's girlfriend and chatted about gossip in the locker room.Some people think that Abby and Theron have a fight, they are not famous, and they are invincible in their youth, such as Korver.He had seen Abby a few times, and his eyes were very complicated, and Wang Jun wondered if this kid had a crush on Abby.There are also several strong supporters of Theron, with Martin bearing the brunt of the attack, and he is a fan of Theron.After the player came out, Wang Jun greeted Abby under the basket, and immediately other photographers pointed the camera at Abby, knowing that it was a peer, but she was too eye-catching.Nets starters: Kidd, Wang Jun, Jefferson, Martin, Collins.Jazz starters: Carlos Arroyo, DeShawn Stephenson, Kirilenko, Haplin, Ostertag.Standing in the middle circle, Kidd reminded Wang Jun again."
When defending, pay attention to protect the basket, stand in a good position, and don't mess up the formation."
Wang Jun made an "ok" gesture.Others are very active in man-to-man defense, and actually prefer joint defense, because joint defense is effortless and easy to grab rebounds.After jumping the ball, the Jazz attacked first, and the Nets contracted their formation to the restricted area and launched a joint defense.With 24 seconds to go, Halprin faced Jefferson and missed the shot.It is a mid-area shot with the greatest chance of bouncing back to the front.Wang Jun made a prediction, let go of Stephenson, and went to the middle of the lane.Collins stuck Ostertag on the right side and went to the basket, Kirilenko wanted to rush to grab the rebound, but Kidd blocked the ball, and Wang Jun easily won the backcourt rebound.Pass to Kidd.Kidd made a quick pass to Martin, who ran to the frontcourt, who was distracted by Haprin's layup and deflected off the basket.Stephenson, who returned to defense, grabbed the rebound, and the Jazz immediately counterattacked, and the ball was hoisted to the low post in the frontcourt.Ostertag takes the ball and is held up by Collins.The Ostertag people are called the "Great White Bear".He is tall and big, Collins is short, but his strength is not a vegetarian, and he dared to defend against the big sharks in the finals in his rookie season, although he was blown up, he was fearless."
Big White Bear" doesn't have O'Neal's explosiveness and low-post offensive skills, and has never scored in a double in his career.High salary and low ability.And.In the summer of 2002, "Big White Bear" donated a kidney to his sister, and it is a miracle that he can still fight.He couldn't squeeze Collins out of the way, so he had to pass the ball, and the rhythm slowed down as soon as he paused, and the Nets players were in position.Jazz coach Sloan now has a headache when he sees the 122 defense.He made a serious mistake by not following Hornacek's advice to choose Wang Jun.The Jazz's biggest weakness this season has been the lack of pitchers.I didn't start with a stable three-pointer, and it didn't matter if I played like this before the 21st century.At that time, all teams were committed to attacking close to the basket, and the NBA was not allowed to defend together.Last season, after learning that Anthony Walker made 582 three-pointers in a season with the Celtics, Sloan also mocked in an interview: "Is the coach still alive?"
But now, Sloan must admit that the NBA has changed, and the outside offense is accounting for more and more of it.Including the rise of the Jazz that year, it all started with the addition of Hornacek.Kirilenko singled out Jefferson and missed a jumper on the right side, and Wang Jun squeezed Halplin on the left side to get the backcourt rebound.Born into a rugby family, Harprin also played rugby when he was young, and he is 201 tall and can play power forward, relying on physical confrontation.Rushing for rebounds is Halplin's forte, averaging 25 frontcourt rebounds per game last season and increasing to 29 this season.The last time he played the Nets, he grabbed four frontcourt rebounds.This time Wang Jun has experience, stuck the position with his body, away from the basket, did not let Halprin rush up, made sure that the ball bounced to his side, and then relied on mobility to take a big step forward, easily took the ball, and rebounded the second rebound.Wang Jun passed it to Kidd, and he was not in a hurry to attack quickly.Kidd burst in on the right and saw Martin attract Kirilenko and give the ball to Corinthians in the middle.Collins received the ball in the middle and squeezed Stephenson into the basketball.Sloan's employment is a bit rigid, the Nets have no people to resist, he still insists on letting the "Big White Bear" start, once the opponent counterattacks, the center can't be withdrawn.2 to 0.The Jazz attacked, and the ball was transferred to the left side of Halplin to single-handedly challenge Wang Jun.Harprin can rely on technique to play inside, and can bully defenders with power misalignment.He squeezed twice in the low position and didn't squeeze away, his left shoulder shook lightly and turned around to the baseline, the axis stood with his left foot very steadily, and after taking a step towards the baseline with his left foot, he immediately half-turned and stepped back.If it was a big man who couldn't lower his body, Haplin was likely to stun people at this time, Wang Jun didn't watch the ball, kept staring at the footsteps, the central axis didn't change, he didn't move, he didn't eat.Halprin turned and jumped, Wang Jun raised his hands to interfere, disrupting the rhythm closely, and the ball was deflected again.As soon as Wang Jun saw the ball bounce to the right, he immediately turned around and played a fast break, Collins took the backcourt rebound and passed to Kidd, who passed to Jefferson in the middle.Stephenson is also a strong man, and he stuck to Jefferson, and he had to pass the ball to Wang Jun again.2 to 2 in the frontcourt, Wang Jun dropped the ball to Martin, who singled out Kirilenko, who was the fastest to return to defense, leaned on his back, turned to the right side and scored a one-handed cricket.4 to 0.The defense of the outside line Kirilenko is super strong, and the defense of the low position is not so inexplicable.Jazz offense, the "Big White Bear" high block was released on the periphery, Arroyo's emergency stop jump shot missed, the "Big White Bear" cut in time to grab the rebound in the middle of the court, and the second offense was pulled down by Collins.The "Big White Bear" went to the free throw line and hit one of the two free throws.4 to 1.On the offensive end, he only has a free throw percentage that can be compared to O'Neal, 57 this season, and he only averages 25 free throws per game, which is too slow for opponents to use "shark slashing tactics" against him.The Nets attacked, Martin cut to the low post, and Collins covered without the ball on the periphery to help Wang Jun get rid of Kirilenko, and Kidd passed the ball over.Haprin went to the low post with Martin, the white bear did not change the defense in time, Wang Jun received the ball and moved horizontally, and scored a three-point jumper in 70 degrees without interference.7 to 1.Jazz blocked and dismantled, Wang Jun changed to Arroyo in time, and the defense was not prevented, Arroyo made a jumper, Wang Jun raised his hand and turned around to grab the rebound.Arroyo's hand was very bad, the 60-degree shot on the left side was slightly stronger, the ball bounced back to the original direction, Wang Jun took the ball down as soon as he reached out and made a long pass to Kidd.Kidd shook off the "Big White Bear" and rushed to the frontcourt, attracting Kirilenko to make up the defense, throwing the ball to the rebound in three steps and bouncing back, Martin followed up from behind, and scored with both hands to catch the ball.9 to 1.It was a beautiful goal, and many fans gave a standing ovation.The last time he played Jazz Wang Jun's non-stop running, he scored 7 points, the shooting rate was very low, and the team almost lost.This time he focused on the defensive end, and the team played better.scored 3 points and grabbed 3 rebounds, Wang Jun felt that it was a good fight, no wasted energy, and the efficiency was high.He decided to focus the whole game on rebounding, trying to see how many he could grab
