Legendary basketball manager

Ray Allen, the fifth pick of the 96 golden generation.

I believe that from this pick, everyone can get a general idea of ​​how talented he is.

Perhaps in the eyes of some young fans, Ray Allen is a ruthless three-point machine.

But when he was young, he was the real boss of the team, averaging more than 20 points per game in many seasons.

If it weren't for the relatively simple and unpretentious style of play, Ray Allen would have the strength to compete with Carter for the top four shooting guards.

In addition to shooting ability, Allen's physical fitness is also very good, which is why he can still contribute 35 points per game at the age of 16.5!

Today, he may not be able to maintain a high-quality defense throughout the game, but if it is only one or two rounds, Ray Allen can undoubtedly provide a very high-quality single defense.

You know, in the finals half a year ago, he did not know how many times he directly confronted Kobe on the defensive end!

At this moment, Ray Allen opened his arms, stepped off his horse, lowered his center of gravity very low, and concentrated on preparing for defense.

Seeing this battle, Curry was not in a hurry to launch an attack, but changed hands and dribbled the ball while observing the opponent's movement.

Ray Allen is not the aggressive type of defender.

He seldom rushes up rashly, but always maintains a defensive position, waiting for the opponent to make a move before responding.

Curry quickly discovered this, too.

Ever since, he dribbled the ball with his left hand and switched to his right hand, then suddenly his center of gravity sank and he looked up at the basket.

At the same time, Curry approached his left hand with the ball in his right hand, as if he was about to collect the ball and shoot.

Ray Allen thought he was going to shoot a three-pointer directly, so he rushed up and tried to block the shot.

Unexpectedly, this is just Curry's shot fake.

Ordinary shooting fakes are basically made in the state of merging the ball, but Curry's "blessing Buddha" is done while walking.

This action was relatively rare during the 10-year period, and only a few players used it, far less frequently than it was used later.

After Ray Allen was tricked by "Bai Buddha", he thought that Curry had violated the second dribble, so he immediately signaled to the referee.

But the linesman just happened to be standing very close to see Curry's movements clearly.

He crossed his hands on his chest, indicating that Mengshen did not violate any rules.

After Curry completed the pass, he took a step forward to the left, and then directly shot a three-pointer...

bingo!

At 25:18, the Rockets continued to close the score.

Ray Allen failed in single defense, and immediately raised his right hand in self-blame, indicating that the ball was his problem.

Rondo on the side didn't take it seriously, and even gave a "tsk".

In his eyes, Ray Allen's strength has obviously declined, but he still always preaches to him.

For example, during the timeout just now, Ray Allen pointed out Rondo's defensive problems in front of the whole team, which made the latter very uncomfortable.

After all, Director Long is very confident in his defense.

"They will play pick-and-roll in a while, so don't switch defenses, let me watch Stephen."

"I'll take care of him."

Rondo walked to the baseline to catch the ball and shouted at Ray Allen.

Soon, the Rockets' offensive struck again.

This time, Curry once again ran a pick-and-roll between guards with Roy.

The difference is that Rondo chose to force his way through the pick-and-roll.

But just as the two of them intertwined, Curry chose to shoot directly...

"Shu~"

Three points again!

This three-pointer was like a slap, slapping Rondo hard on the face.

The bold words he swore just now seemed somewhat ridiculous at the moment.

With a dark face, Rondo walked to the baseline to catch the ball without saying a word.

Ray Allen had a larger pattern, and he devoted himself to the offense with a calm face.

In the next few minutes, the two sides started a three-point confrontation.

Pierce and Ray Allen of the Celtics fired one after another, and the Rockets' outside double guns-Curry and Roy were not far behind, and responded one after another.

At the end of the first quarter, Curry passed Rondo with a behind-the-back dribble. After reaching the penalty area, he met Garnett who was defending, and sent the ball to the basket with a freehand high rebound.

The goal light is on, and the first quarter is over!

At this time, the score came to 30:25, and the Rockets were only five points behind.

Such a situation also made CCTV host Yu Jia sigh: "Curry is a bit of a surprise player today! Before he played, the Rockets trailed by 13 points at most, but now the point difference has basically been wiped out!"

Yang Yi nodded and said in agreement: "Before the game, Shen Fei once said on social media that Curry was the best three-pointer in history. This sentence attracted Ray Allen's dissatisfaction, but just from the first quarter , Curry's shooting is indeed no worse than Ray Allen, haha~"

............

At the same time, Shen Fei, who was far away in Houston, was also watching the game through TV.

At this moment, the joy in his heart far exceeds the game itself.

Because, Shen Fei was surprised to find that Curry's progress was faster than he expected!

But judging from the first quarter, this handsome point guard wearing Rockets No. 30 already has a bit of "Kuritian" shadow.

Whether it's a super long three-pointer or a high rebound after breaking through the basket, Curry has the demeanor of his peak period.

[As expected of a talented player across the ages... With the blessing of [Spiritual Time Room], the speed of improvement is too fast. ]

Shen Fei sighed in his heart.

Of course, in addition to the 10x speed bonus of [Spiritual Time House], the change in the way of exerting force is also a major reason for Curry's transformation.

To put it simply, Curry has joined the Rockets for less than a month, and his strength may have improved more than his one season with the Warriors!

"Curry is in such a good state, will you take out the lineup that you discussed with Mark before..."

The Asian youth murmured.

............

After a short intermission, the game resumed.

As soon as the players of the two teams played, the commentary of CCTV was shocked!

"Hey, the lineup of the Rockets...is a new trick!"

Yu Jia said in surprise.

At this time, the five people sent by the Rockets are: Curry, Roy, Danny Green, George and pj-Tucker.

A pure five small lineup!

"It's such a bold formation! I really don't know how Mark Jackson came up with these lineups."

"Obviously a fledgling young coach, in less than half a season, he has developed so many 'black technologies'. The Rockets really found a treasure."

Yang Yi joked with a smile.

"I don't think these ideas were necessarily Mark Jackson's."

"When he was a player, he was a very traditional defender. The first thing he did after halftime was to turn his back and stick his butt up to ensure safety before starting to organize the offense."

"Let me make a bold guess... These ideas are likely to come from Shen Fei. From his bold transactions, it can be seen that the young man is a very thoughtful person."

Yu Jia tried to analyze.

Yang Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and nodded after thinking for a while, but then expressed his concerns:

"This lineup is too 'small', and I am worried that the Rockets will collapse and directly 'sudden death'."

"At that time, this lineup may be called the 'Death Five'."

............

Look back on the field.

The Celtics sent a bench lineup led by Nate Robinson, "Big Baby" Davis, and O'Neal.

The battle of the substitute lineups of the two sides is about to start!
