NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 102 Looking forward to "End of Confrontation" + "Strengthening of Confrontation"

Finley was just scared for a moment reflexively, and then he focused all his attention on basketball.

How long has it been since then, and you still have the time to worry about getting beaten?

This is the playoffs, the moment when the bayonet sees blood!
In the playoffs where the dog's brain is all about playing, who do you think can frighten you with your illustrious reputation in fights?
Putting aside the factor of being beaten, Finley was quite happy that his defender became Lu Yuanzhi.

Finley himself knew that Christie defended very well and the opponent interfered with every shot he made. He didn't know how long his hot touch could last.

Now that Lu Yuanzhi is on the front line to defend him, his footwork is bound to be a little worse than Christie's, so his shooting opportunities will be better.

In particular, Christie's skills in overcoming pick-and-rolls are very good. He can follow him almost every time, and almost every time, the screens of LaFrentz and Nowitzki become "invalid screens."

Now with such a big man, can he steal the ball again and again like Christie?

The Mavericks attacked, and Finley stood on the weak side. Lu Yuanzhi didn't post it, and stood between the ball and Finley.

Sure enough, it was still the way of forward defense, and Finley was secretly proud.

But when the ball came to Finley, he felt something was wrong.

Lu Yuanzhi immediately defended himself, not afraid of being stepped over.

Are you so confident?

Finley tried to get ahead, but Lu Yuanzhi caught up with him without any surprises, and Finley's weight advantage was not enough for Lu Yuanzhi at all.

Finley was immediately alert. This 206-centimeter big man had a very solid foundation in individual defense. He couldn't expect to break through his defense by fighting alone.

Finley patted the top of his head and called Nowitzki over to cover.

When Nowitzki was about to take his position, Lu Yuanzhi immediately changed his strategy, took a step forward, stuck close to Finley, and squeezed past Finley together.

How does such a large body squeeze through such a small gap?
Of course, Lu Yuanzhi was one step ahead. When he got close to Finley, he had another physical confrontation with Finley, forcing Finley to be unable to dribble close to LaFrentz.

On the other side, after Nowitzki settled down, he also made a small movement, arching his butt slightly outward, trying to prevent Lu Yuanzhi from squeezing through.

But after Lu Yuanzhi and Nowitzki also confronted once, they still squeezed through the gap.

In terms of strength, Nowitzki is no better than Lu Yuanzhi.

Invalid cover!

"Kill!"

Off the court, the main players of the Kings who were replaced and rested continued to shout to encourage their substitutes!

Seeing that the pick-and-roll failed, Finley quickly gave the ball to Da Zhi on the other side, and quickly cut inside. Da Zhi understood it, and passed the ball back to Finley without stopping after receiving the ball.

The two actually made a cooperation similar to "hitting the wall" in football.

But on the basketball court, if you want to excel like this, you have to ask Lu Yuanzhi whether he agrees or not.

Lu Yuanzhi did not relax at all after getting the first "Kill". He continued to tense up and work hard to catch up with Finley.

After playing the game of killing offense, the Kings players generally have the concept of anti-second attack tactics.

This is a lesson learned after dozens of failed games.

The ball was passed very well. If it was Christie who was guarding Finley now, the ball would have been passed, forming a very threatening offense.

But Lu Yuanzhi is not Christie, his height and wingspan played a role at this time.

I saw Lu Yuanzhi swung his long arm and cut the ball directly.

The ball fell not far away, Dazhi ran two steps forward and picked it up.

"2 Kills!" an excited shout came from the Kings' bench.

The two tactics failed, which means that the Mavericks can no longer launch tactics and can only rely on stars to play singles.

But Da Zhi, who was playing in the playoffs for the first time, was a little confused. He felt that he had a chance and wanted to take action. However, according to the tactical requirements, he had to quickly pass the ball to Van Exel, Nowitzki or Finn. Lee, let them complete the singles in the last 8 seconds.

In such a moment of hesitation, Pollard took action and cut off the basketball.

Lu Yuanzhi, Bobby Jackson and Turkoglu started immediately, followed by Stojakovic and began to sprint forward.

The 5-man fast break of the Kings appeared again!
"Retreat and retreat!"

The Mavericks shouted and retreated frantically to their own half.

But how can the Mavericks defend the five-man fast break that the Kings have optimized?

Bobby Jackson broke through from the center, Stojakovic and Turkoglu opened up and ran to the bottom corners on both sides, and Lu Yuanzhi followed Bobby Jackson.

Although Van Elsel is usually not active on defense, he will not be lazy in the playoffs. He sticks closely to Bobby Jackson and constantly interferes with his advancement.

Inside the Mavericks, Da Zhi, who had just been cut off the ball, retreated in time, and it seemed that this fast break could not be completed.

As expected, Bobby Jackson no longer sprinted inside, but slowed down and dribbled to the side, seeming to turn the offense into position.

At the moment when the Mavericks players relaxed their vigilance, Lu Yuanzhi followed up the fast break and continued to rush to the inside without mercy. Bobby Jackson also made a ground pass, directly giving the ball to Lu Yuanzhi.

Lu Yuanzhi faced Da Zhi, took off hard, actively sought confrontation in the air, then slowly stretched out his long arms and put the ball firmly into the hoop.

Go in!

22: 22!

The two sides drew again!

Lu Yuanzhi looked at the system prompts. After the new functions were activated in the playoffs, the system finally allowed Lu Yuanzhi to clearly see the effects of abilities and skills.

This time the defensive player (Dazhi) protects the basket, which can reduce the offensive player's finishing shooting rate at the basket by 9%.

71-point confrontation ending can reduce the defensive player's basket protection effect by 7.1%, that is, the defensive player's defense can only reduce the final shooting rate by 1.9%.

Is it actually a subtraction?
3点强化对抗技能，降低所受影响15%，即1.9*85%=1.615%。

Therefore, although Big Zhi is protecting the basket, in fact, he can only reduce Lu Yuanzhi's shooting percentage by 1.615%!

This has almost no effect!
Therefore, in the future, those players with weak rim protection ability will hardly be able to affect Lu Yuanzhi's finish without strengthening their confrontation skills after Lu Yuanzhi has maxed out his "Confrontation Ending".

But is it meaningless to strengthen the confrontation like this?

No, no!
On the contrary, it is of great significance!
Because O'Neal's ability to protect the basket affects the opponent's ability to finish at the basket, there is a high probability that the shooting rate will exceed 20%.

After all, according to statistics from Lu Yuanzhi World, Antetokounmpo's rim protection can reduce the opponent's finishing hit rate by 16.9%. O'Neal, who has a greater advantage in size, should definitely exceed 20 points.

If Lu Yuanzhi only relies on the full "Confrontation Ending" ability, O'Neal will reduce Lu Yuanzhi's hit rate by more than 10%. If combined with the full "Enhanced Confrontation" ability, his finishing hit rate will only be reduced by about 5%.

This is very against the sky!
Lu Yuanzhi couldn't help but look forward to what kind of wonderful expression O'Neal will have when he blocks himself after he has added 7 points of "enhanced confrontation" ability after playing against the Mavericks, and then continues to become stronger in the series against the Lakers.

Well, we are still fighting against the Mavericks right now, so let’s stop taking out loans and play the game well!
