Okur's thinking is very insightful, and it can only be said that he is one of the best shooting big men of this era.
Judging from Zuo Li's current shooting strength, if he is heavily marked, there is really no way to kill his opponent.
After all, Zuoli's three-pointer is less than 60 points, and the open shot is ok. Once you are heavily marked and heavy physical exertion, the effect will definitely not work. Don't look at NCAA Zuoli's three-point shooting can have a 36% hit rate. , This is the NBA, once the intensity is on, it is not the same as the NCAA.
Moreover, the current NBA tactics do not allow Zuo Li to play like this. Otherwise, Okursheng is in the wrong era. In future generations, he has the opportunity to become the core of the team's offense. Maybe the Utah Jazz's pick-and-roll is him and Deron. Now, what's the matter with Boozer's mid-range shooter?
But now, Okur can only act as a tool man, become a blue-collar worker, and act as a perimeter battery on the offensive end.
This is also because Zuo Li trains and shoots a lot every day, but he still focuses on the inside in the game, because this will attract the attention and attention of the head coach. Otherwise, after playing with the Heat, Riley will publicly express his appreciation for Zuo Li. If Zuo Li had been floating outside and shooting, Riley wouldn't be moved even if he scored 30 points.
This is the era.
Change never happens overnight.
In order to develop to the stage of later generations, a slow process is needed. If the later generations did not wither the inside line too seriously, coupled with the continuous blowout of the back line for several years, plus the promotion of several epoch-making players, the small ball will not develop. So fast.
Think about 14, 15 years ago, everyone will understand who the center is in the league
Talents change the times, and the following people adapt to the times, and then bring about changes again, Zuo Li always thinks so.
Zuo Li’s reappearance is naturally a person who will change the times. He has been working hard for this. He also wants to use all kinds of incredible three-pointers to CRARRY the audience as soon as he comes up, but isn’t the system blown up? So he can only slowly accumulate strength.
And what Zuo Li is doing now is also changing the times. Before him, no center would play like this.
This method can also attract a lot of attention to Zuo Lizhi, and can be valued by the coach. When he takes out a shot again, it will definitely surprise the whole world (jing) and delight (xia).
Well, without further ado, the picture finally entered the competition arena.
The atmosphere of the Knicks home is no longer necessary. The three home games were full, and the attendance rate soared to the first in the league and even surpassed the championship favorite Los Angeles Lakers, and the ratings were also the highest in the United States at the same time. The first six rounds of the game had the highest ratings. It's the Knicks' first home game against the Bucks.
This result once again proves how huge the New York market is.
And the enthusiasm of New York fans also burned in Madison Square Garden again. For them, coming here to watch football is finally not an extreme sport. They can finally come with expectations and return with hope.
This is undoubtedly very happy for the fans who have been abused in the past few seasons.
In the street interviews in the past few days, some fans even said that they are content, and the next is a series of fiasco, and he can accept that he can't make it to the playoffs.
Listen, listen!
How humble.
It's unbelievable compared to other strong teams.
For example, the Lakers, if they can't make the playoffs this season, then they'll be unloaded for you if they don't go to Staples.
But that would be understandable if Knicks fans, after all, won 22 games last season, and now the Knicks have won 5 games in a row...
What should I say, old Forrest Gump.
However, the words of the fans still moved Zuo Li. He came to change this situation. Although it is impossible not to lose this season, and 70 wins is also a dream, but the ball that can be won, especially the home ball, they Must try to win.
This also coincides with D'Antoni's idea. If you lose on the road, you will lose. How much you lose at home will affect the morale of the fans.
So this game against the Jazz, the Knicks still go all out.
Zuo Li, Randolph, Chandler, Richardson and Duhon started.
Opposite is the familiar Okur, Boozer, Kirilenko, Brewer and Deron.
However, the Knicks may have been too tight when they came up. They passed the ball from the left, Randolph bounced off a close shot, and Boozer picked up the rebound.
When the Jazz attacked, Okur kept in mind Sloan's instructions to contain the energy of the left standing from the offensive end, so he went directly to Deron to do the pick-and-roll.
However, after blocking, Okura went out to get the ball and found that, eh?
Why is Zuo Li still here!
He really wanted to ask with his eyes, but Delong rushed in, don't you need to help defend?
Then the Knicks proved with action that they really didn't need it.
Because Randolph is in there!
Duhon got rid of the continuous physical interference, and Randolph also stood in the interior, which made Deron's shot very difficult.
Don't look at Randolph's only 206 cm, but his weight and area make him like a wall. Although Randolph's one-on-one defensive ability may not be very strong, at least he will not suffer in terms of height and size. When protecting the frame, it is enough for him to stand in front of him and straighten his arms.
Sure enough, although Delong shot the ball, but under the interference of the two, Delong also missed the shot, Randolph protected the rebound, and then passed it directly to Zuo Li.
Facing Oku, Zuo Li's left shoulder shook, and then it was a signature large-scale Crossover!
The Okurs stayed where they were and took the penalty stand.
Two seconds later, he turned his head and looked at Zuoli's back in despair. His legs just now couldn't move at all. As a big white man, his movement was slower than that of black people, and his movements were more rigid, so he could only catch a disabled man. A shadow flashes past...
bang!
Zuo Li reproduced the backcourt counterattack and fast break one-stop dunks.
Okur: "..."
He really wanted to ask, what kind of fast break method, the first time he was looking for was not a guard or a small forward, but a center!
The Knicks fans at the scene were hilarious, especially Zuoli did some biceps movements after scoring the goal, which was very chic.
D'Antoni is bulging on the sidelines, and he is not good. He designed it to have a center who can dribble fast.
Then on the defensive end, Okur ran in vain again, he was watched again, left standing very fast, and the defensive area was large There is no problem that Dayao can't come out, Okur was caught by him There is no temper at all, and there is no chance to catch the ball, let alone shoot.
Fortunately, Delong was powerful, and he scored the ball in the air with high difficulty.
But the Knicks were unmoved. This kind of ball, if you have the ability, you can always score. I also recognize it.
But back to his own defensive end, this time Okur was smart, stepping on the free throw line to defend and spreading his arms, just to prevent the left standing strong.
Zuo Li smiled slightly, hehe, this is giving himself a three-pointer chance, I don't dare to vote even if no one is defending, this is too despising for me!
Raise your hand and throw it away!
The basketball is precisely guided and falls into the net!
brush!
Okur turned his head, his expression wrinkled.
He is so tired and wants to retire...
