I am so Accurate

Sun Hao nodded. The ability to play key shots has been cultivated when he was in the Mavericks.

Jackson's request can be said to involve his professional field.

After talking about the triangle offense, Jackson then chatted with Sun Hao for a while... about Zen.

Don't be surprised, Zen originated from the East, and Buddhism is prevalent in China. He thinks it is normal for Sun Hao to be interested in this.

Poor Sun Hao, he can only recite that famous quotation silently in his heart.

Don't listen or listen, the monk recites scriptures.

But even if Sun Hao is just perfunctory, his understanding of Zen must be much better than that of Americans like O'Neill.

After Jackson finished chatting, he felt that Sun Hao was also a person of Zen.

Sun Hao really is, he can't tell the pain in his heart.

When he finally came out of Jackson's office, Sun Hao's brain was still buzzing.

He thought it would be better to spend less time alone with Jackson in the future.

...

After two days of training camp, I felt that the players had almost adjusted their bodies, and Jackson started training the triangle offense.

O'Neal, Malone, and Horry, who have played under Jackson before and successfully integrated, can seamlessly connect.

Sun Hao also relied on his super high basketball IQ to understand, and he integrated very well.

But for most of the other players, this tactic is still a bit confusing.

In fact, it’s really not their fault. In history, when Phil Jackson went to the Knicks as the general manager, he wanted to transplant the triangle tactics.

But until he left, the Knicks didn't figure out what the triangle offense was.

Even Rodman, the hero of the Bulls dynasty, was asked about the triangle tactics, and he answered "Isn't that just giving the ball to Jordan for singles?"

So it will take some time for these new players of the Lakers to really integrate into this tactic.

The good news is that this tactic does not require them to fully understand it, as long as everyone performs their duties and follows the tactic.

And in order to let the players understand more straightforwardly, Jackson also used Rodman's original sentence as an example.

"The triangle tactic is indeed to give the ball to Jordan for singles, but it deals with how to let Jordan play one-on-one, instead of being forced to play singles after deep double-teaming."

This sentence actually expresses the core point of the triangle tactics.

Johnson's dislocation singles is to form a dislocation, use the strong to beat the weak, and ensure the success rate.

The triangle offense is to create one-on-one singles opportunities for indiscriminate singles.

The former needs enough singles points, while the latter requires singles players to have strong personal attack ability.

This is a tactic born for superstars.

Of course, this tactic also requires the superstar to have good passing ability.

Because no matter how much space you have on the weak side, there is still a possibility that the opponent will double-team the superstar regardless of others.

Jordan, O'Neal, and Kobe before the lemon tree in his heart grew up all had these requirements.

So from this point of view, it is reasonable that the triangle offense can be successful in the Bulls and Lakers, but it cannot be replicated in the Knicks.

While the training camp was going on, Buss Jr. came several times.

When he saw Sun Hao blending in so quickly, his face was full of smiles.

It was his decision to trade Sun Hao first and then play later. In addition, Old Bass said before that he would watch Sun Hao's opening match, so he was also under a lot of pressure.

Now that Sun Hao has integrated so well, his pressure is naturally less.

"I really wish the season started earlier."

Little Buss said with a smile to Kupchak beside him.

"Soon."

Kupchak nodded with a smile.

Half a month passed quickly, and the new season was about to kick off in a blink of an eye.

But just before that, a big event happened in the league.

The league issued an announcement that the hand-check rule that has been in use will be canceled in the new season.

More precisely, it should be the no.hand-check rule.

The new rules stipulate that if the outside player is above the free throw line, then when he moves with the ball, the defensive player cannot use his hands or forearm to act on the body of the player holding the ball, otherwise it is a foul.

The introduction of this rule can be said to be expected. The game between the Pistons and the Lakers last season was extremely enjoyable.

In particular, the Pistons swept the Lakers to win the championship.

This is actually a very bad orientation.

If no changes are made, there will only be more and more teams like the Pistons.

In the end, the NBA changed from a basketball game to a boxing game like the last century.

Stern had already had an idea two years ago, and he also released some rumors to make the teams mentally prepare in advance.

But one stone stirs up waves.

After this rule comes out, it will still have a great shock to the league and fans.

The one who wants to scold her mother most is naturally the Pistons.

I just won a championship and you do this?

This is clearly aimed at me!

Teams that are good at defense, including the Pacers, Spurs, Nets, and Timberwolves, also complained.

Because the time node for the alliance to announce the introduction of this rule is too late!

Their lineup has been difficult to go higher.

So at this time, from Sun Hao's perspective, looking back at history, there was no scoring explosion in the 2004-2005 season, but it was not so strange that the scoring exploded in the 2005-2006 season.

Of course, some people are happy and some are worried. Those teams that are good at offense are very happy.

Especially the Suns who just got Nash, they feel that they are about to rise.

O'Neill is also in a good mood.

In order to prevent the Lakers from completing their three consecutive championships, the league introduced a series of rules such as three seconds of defense and zone defense.

That has no less impact on the game of basketball than the no.hand-check rule.

The anger he suffered back then is finally someone else's turn to suffer!

One must know that he forcibly completed the three consecutive dynasties against those rules, but now that these people can't do it, it means that he is the strongest.

And there is another point, Sun Hao is also a player who is strong offensively and weak defensively, so the no.hand-check rule will benefit him a lot.

It's good for Sun Hao, that is, it's good for the Lakers.

He is holding back a lot of energy now, and wants to prove to everyone that the failure of the Lakers last season was entirely because of Kobe.

Sun Hao, of course, is also very happy with this rule.

The biggest impact of no.hand-check is the breakthrough. After being unable to fight, the chances of the defensive player being passed by one step increase greatly.

Likewise, for ball-handling shooters, it's less difficult for him to create space for his shot.

Not to mention that Sun Hao is no longer the player who relied purely on shooting when he first entered the league. His ability to combine breakthroughs and sudden shots is also very strong.

His performance in the new season is likely to rise to another new height.

And this rule has no small impact on ESPN.

Before the start of the new season, ESPN conducted a wave of strength analysis of the teams in the new season as in previous years.

In this list, the Lakers top the list!

In theory, the Lakers lineup has changed a lot. Even with Sun Hao and O'Neal, they shouldn't be in this position.

But obviously, ESPN feels that the new rules will bring huge benefits to Sun Hao and the Lakers, so they put them first.

The Mavericks followed closely behind, and the new rules also have a great bonus to offensive super giants like Kobe and Nowitzki.

ESPN didn't put them at the top, in large part because the head coach was Johnson and not Nelson Sr.

Johnson's coaching style has been well-known in the past season, with outstanding defense and a slightly single offense.

Ranked third is the defending champion Pistons.

Anthony performed very well in the Olympics, and the new rules will be of great benefit to him.

In addition, the new rules have just come out, and some details are not very perfect, including referees and players, still need to adapt to this rule.

The impact of this new rule on the Pistons at the beginning may not be as great as imagined.

The Wizards ranked fourth.

McGrady is also a player who is good at sudden shots. Before that, he has been the scoring leader for two consecutive times. This rule will make him stronger.

Coupled with Yao Ming and Hamilton, the Wizards' combat power in the new season will not be much worse than the previous three teams.

The Spurs are fifth.

The new rules have a huge bonus for breakthrough players, and Ginobili, who performed well in the Olympics, is one of the best.

In fact, in this year in history, Ginobili shined in the finals and helped the Spurs successfully reach the top.

Some fans even feel that he deserves the FMVP more than Duncan.

These are directly related to no.hand-check.

The Heat ranked sixth.

Wade showed superb breakthrough ability, and was even called "The Flash" by fans because of his super fast speed, which is a superhero in DC.

He will be the biggest beneficiary.

Coupled with Odom, Caron Butler and others, the Heat's strength in the new season will be even higher.

The Pacers are seventh.

The team under Carlisle's coaching is one of the most adaptable teams.

The Sonics are eighth.

There are many contenders for this position, but the Sonics are the most overlooked, with Ray Allen, a shooting guard who can shoot extremely well.

The new rules may usher in a new pinnacle of his career.

...

Taking a look at the rankings, it is not difficult to find that ESPN believes that the new rules will directly affect the pattern of the entire league.

Fans, however, had mixed reactions.

Some people agree, because only a small number of insiders are affected by three-second defense and zone defense, but the vast majority of players are affected by no.hand-check.

Some people think that ESPN has made a big fuss. Even if the new rules have a great impact, it is impossible to say that it will appear immediately in the new season.

Well, 2K also came over to join in the excitement at this time.

After they found Sun Hao as their spokesperson last year, 2K's sales in China skyrocketed, which made them "really fragrant".

So after the introduction of the new rules, they made a fine-tuning of the players' personal abilities.

And this fine-tuning made Sun Hao's ability value jump to 97, tied for the first place among all players with Duncan!

Although this is largely due to catering to the Chinese market, just like O'Neill's score of 100 in history, this has already been recorded in the history of 2K.

Maybe one day in the future, when fans are discussing when Sun Hao began to show his dominance, 2K's score will be a big basis.

The promulgation of the new rules has attracted waves of heated discussions, and amidst such discussions, the NBA's preseason games took the lead.

The Lakers have many new members, Phil Jackson is more exploring the lineup, and Sun Hao and O'Neal have limited playing time.

But even in the limited lineup, fans also found that the two together are really... so suitable!

In the triangle offense, O'Neal and Sun Hao form two corners, and a random shooter comes in the third corner, so the offensive space is ridiculously large.

The moment O'Neal got the ball inside, he felt that all the discomfort caused by the zone defense in the past two years disappeared.

As for Sun Hao, with O'Neal's restraint on the inside, he can easily get one-on-one opportunities on the outside.

Even, he didn't have much use for a breakthrough.

They really, were made for each other.

After the preseason, the Lakers started off with a 7-game winning streak.

There seems to be no such thing as running-in transition.

And after the preseason, Phil Jackson also figured out the most suitable starting lineup for the team.

Sun Hao and Finley partnered on the outside, Horry and Howard on the striker, and O'Neal at the center.

Kupchak also understands why when he brought Sun Hao to the Staples Center that day, O'Neal came in and said "My Pacific Ocean".

Because of this lineup, the sense of space on the court is really the Pacific Ocean!

After the preseason, the Lakers will also usher in the season opener.

Stern still made the arrangements in place as always.

The Lakers' opponent in the opening game is the Wizards.

As soon as it comes up, it is the Chinese Derby plus Yao Sha duel.

This is at the beginning of the season, and the Chinese market will be ignited first.

And you have to take into account the existence of McGrady. The match between him and Sun Hao three years ago between White Horse Long Spear VS Changhong Guanri is still vivid in the fans' minds.

Now that the two super scorers have changed teams, a new round of duels has opened a new chapter.

The Lakers are actively preparing for the game.

Although the team performed well in the preseason, the preseason is just training after all, and only the regular season can really explain the problem.

Especially playing against a strong opponent like the Wizards in the first game can test the quality of this Lakers team.

The day before the start of the season, the Lakers are doing their final practice.

During the training, Sun Hao noticed that Phil Jackson was writing something in his notebook.

At first, he thought Jackson was taking tactical notes like other coaches.

But the general notes do not have to be so diligent.

After the training was over, he couldn't help running over to Jackson to have a look, only to realize that he was actually...well, writing a diary.

Zen, journaling, this Phil Jackson was really... different.

"I love writing books."

But Jackson's temper is also really good, after seeing Sun Hao watching, he explained with a smile.

Sun Hao suddenly realized after listening.

He suddenly remembered that Jackson seemed to like writing and selling books in his history. And his autobiography is selling well.

He remembered Howard Exley, too.

Jackson is writing a diary to collect material to write a book.

The guy loves to collect stories and tell them stories.

Eisley went to Utah to play last season, and I don't know how he is doing there now.

"You can also write and document your life, and you know your autobiography will be a hit in the future."

Jackson said with a smile.

Sun Hao nodded after hearing this.

Unlike the previous Zen studies, he thought Jackson's suggestion was good.

ps: There is a new chapter today.
