The Rest, Only Noise

"Do you think Xiao Yu is okay?"

Louis didn't ask Zhao Yuanzheng to praise Yu Tiancan from the perspective of his parents. He wanted to hear Zhao Yuanzheng, a top scout, really think about the number one player in the first phase of the Luyuan Academy in the United States.

"His athleticism is incredible for his size."

Zhao Yuanzheng said precisely.

"It's rare to be tall without being slow, fast without being stupid."

Quick is also Louis's first impression of Yu Tiancan.

With a height of 2.2 meters, his speed is really fast. Although he can't compare with Ewing or a freak like Sampson, he is absolutely faster than other giants over 220 cm. It stands out from the crowd.

Fast speed and excellent athletic ability, as long as he is neither stupid nor lazy, these two characteristics are enough for Yu Tiancan to be a good blue collar in professional competitions.

"Don't report the good or the bad, talk about his shortcomings."

"Disadvantages..." Zhao Yuanzheng has observed Yu Tiancan for a long time, and he does not know what obvious shortcomings Yu Tiancan has at this stage.

As a center, his four years in college were not wasted.

Wake Forest University was well-prepared for his career.

His technical reserves are complete, his physical talent is outstanding, he has no bad records off the field, he is a good gentleman on the field, and he is also excellent in both character and study in school.

"He's a bit of a David Robinson character."

To put it simply, he is a good guy, which is not a good thing for a professional player.

Not ruthless enough, not fierce enough, this will definitely cause problems in the interior.

Yu Tiancan is not so flawless that he can only find faults in his character, but it is really difficult for the NCAA to expose his shortcomings.

What the Knicks need is a backup center.

Because they don't plan to re-sign Jack Hikma, John Salley has become a vegetarian, and the state may not last for a few years, so bringing in a young insider is one of the most needed things for the Knicks right now.

"Doesn't he have any technical shortcomings?" Louie didn't watch Yu Tiancan's games much, so he might have missed something. Zhao Yuanzheng did this specially.

If he said that Yu Tiancan's technique was not flawed, Louis would believe him.

"Shooting is probably the biggest shortcoming that affects his integration into the system."

Zhao Yuanzheng searched for a long time and found a shooting problem.

But Louie is not stupid enough to let a 2.2-meter inside line open and shoot. This is not the era of small balls. It is naturally the best to shoot inside.

Louis and Zhao Yuanzheng also discussed Hu Weidong from Syracuse University.

He will also participate in the draft this year, and the market is expected to be early in the second round.

In another mediocre draft year, he should be able to have a market at the end of the first round. This year, the competition is indeed fierce.

Louis regarded Hu Weidong as an alternative.

At this time, Louis was no longer as enthusiastic about it as when the Luyuan recruited Hu Weidong.

The establishment of Luyuan changed the fate of many people, and Hu Weidong was just one of them.

In Louis's previous life, the NBA dream that he failed to achieve is likely to be realized in this life.

After all, he is a full-sized shooting guard, and even regardless of his nationality and skin color, he is worth picking for his immediate combat power and malleability.

Coincidentally, in addition to the SuperSonics' first-round pick swap this year, the Knicks also have the Spurs' second-round pick, which is the legacy of Bol's deal.

After that, Louis discussed with Zhao Yuanzheng other Chinese players who are playing in the NCAA.

At present, there are 18 Chinese players who have entered the NCAA first-level league through the Road Academy in the United States.

In addition to Yu Tiancan and Hu Weidong, who have graduated, there are still two players in the NCAA including Liu Yuqing in the first phase of the trip to the United States.

Then there is the second phase of the tour in the United States, where 6 people entered the first-level league, and then the third stage of the tour in the United States, which is known as the golden generation, all ten people entered the first-level league.

Compared with the mediocre second phase, Liu Yuqing in the first phase and ten players in the third phase are the objects that Louis focuses on.

Liu Yuqing became the main force in the second season, averaging 14 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists per game, and has the draft market.

If he enters the draft this year, he is expected to be selected in the middle of the first round.

But he wants to play all four years of college.

Then there are ten people in the third phase: Kang Chengbiao, Wu Qi, Xiao Laoban, Zheng Bian, Chu Nan, Du Shuai, Lin Zhiwei, Du Weiguo, Lu Gensheng, Zhang Baoyu.

Of those ten, seven entered the team's rotation during their freshman season, and two of them were made starters.

Zhao Yuanzheng exaggeratedly said: "The growth of these people in D1 will determine the future height of Chinese basketball."

Louis is much more relaxed. He is most satisfied with these batches of players. Except for Hu Weidong, the rest of them were all unknown in his previous life. That said, without Louie, their talent could have been buried.

This is the original purpose of Louie's establishment of the Road Academy. As for whether they can change Chinese basketball, it is not what he values.

The subject is so big that even Louis can hardly imagine it.

June 5, 1992

Madison Square Garden ushered in the second game of the NBA Finals.

Pat Riley is no longer tucked away, playing whatever cards he has.

The biggest cards of the Blazers are Jordan and Barkley. In this game, they will play around these two.

Add to that a strong group of supports: McDaniel, Mason, Clifford Robinson, Nance, Cauchy, Porter and Brian Shaw.

Tonight, Riley has a routine in the starting lineup.

The starters in the first few games, like Mason, Robinson, McDaniel, etc., all went to the bench.

The starting lineup is Porter, Shaw, Jordan, Barkley, and Nance.

Shaw is a tall point guard who is shorter than the shot. The only reason for him to enter the starting lineup is to supply ammunition to Jordan and Barkley.

When it comes to passing, Shaw is no worse than anyone on the Blazers team.

Porter became a perimeter shooter who could take over the ball, and Jordan, Barkley and Nance became ruthless finishers.

Holding an angry Jordan from the beginning, Louie saw how strong the league's leading offensive player is when he goes all out.

Since Jordan's three-pointer was not open, the Knicks' pocket formation and triangle formation composed of defensive players restricted them from hitting the basket. Therefore, he received and shot a lot from the high post.

Even Jordan, it's impossible to kill the Knicks by relying on a no-solution mid-range shot.

As the game progressed, his jump shot accuracy dropped as his stamina dropped.

So, the Blazers had to rely on another superstar, Barkley, who perfectly exploited the space ripped apart by Jordan's fiery jumper, rushing to the rim with every catch.

Blindly hitting the basket, its capacity is limited.

In the first half, according to the Knicks team statistics, Barkley shot 70% from 0-3 feet from the basket, plus free throws, 18 points in the half, and Jordan scored 20 points in the first half with a jumper. Complement each other.

The Blazers' attitude toward the game was more rude than Game1.

Those muscle monsters who made it to the second unit, dragged the game into the bloodiest confrontation at any cost.

Xavier McDaniel's murderous collision leaves Reggie Williams injured.

Camp confiscated his temper and fought with Mason, who were both sent out at the same time.

But Camp is more important to the Knicks than Mason is to the Blazers.

In the first half, the Blazers defeated the Knicks 49-44.

The two sides scored less than 95 points combined in the half, which is rare in the game between the Knicks and the Blazers.

Although they are both defensive-oriented teams, they all have the top three offensive firepower in the league.

The most desperate thing is not being able to defend, but being able to defend and attack.

To beat this kind of team, it is not enough to have a strong offense or a strong defense. Only by practicing both offense and defense can you overwhelm your opponents when you are high, and you can win the game against them.

The Knicks and Blazers matchup, that's it.

The Knicks feel that their defense is stronger and the offense is more open, while the Blazers believe that their superstar has a stronger upper limit than the Knicks, as long as they use football tactics to let the flanks desperately strangle their opponents and drag the game to confrontation, In the quagmire of hand-to-hand combat and wrestling, the offensive efficiency of both sides dropped to the lowest point, and then they won by virtue of their super-giant attacking ability.

It can be seen from the score in the first half that the Blazers have reached a strategic intention.

During halftime, Louie pointed to the tactical board and said: "The key reason why we can't limit them is that our defensive communication is not in place. From the second half, I want Jordan to play every second under the constraints of 'the law', I want Fat Alabama to have at least two guys stop him every time he hits our rim! Don't **** worry about their perimeter shots, they can't make a shot! They haven't made a single shot tonight Three points!"

The way the Knicks and the Blazers play is also two extremes.

The Blazers are strong because of the players~www.novelmt.com~ Riley provides advice and strategies, but when implemented, in fact, like those "Hail Mary" believers in the monastery, they can only be influenced by faith/supergiant everything.

The Blazers are player-centric.

The Knicks also have superstars, but no one can beat Louie to play their game.

Louie is the "Hail Mary" of the Knicks.

The Blazers look at the players, the Knicks look at the coaches.

In the second half, Jordan received the ball on the weak side, and when he was pinched by Wilson and Rodman, he forced a **** path.

He represents a far less unreasonable way of playing than both The Tragic and Larry Legends.

Usually when people are double-teamed like this, the tragic player’s ball has been passed long ago. Bird may pass the ball before the double-team. Jordan has the awareness of the ball, but he knows that his teammates can’t make three-pointers, and his pass is not good. significance. Instead of wasting time passing the ball, do it yourself.

Isn't it the double team of DPOY+ one defense pick?

Jordan broke through the most difficult double-team defense on the planet, smashed into the restricted area, and faced another first-defense pick, Patrick Ewing.

The trapeze smashed and deducted points across Ewing stalwart's body.
