Chapter 965 [All-stars can't beat civilians]

Wade and Wang Jun were strictly guarded against each other. After the pick-and-roll, Amino replaced him. Wang Jun chased the defense and formed a double team, leaving Evans empty. The "rebound man" didn't have to worry about the long distance.

Evans is different from other inside blue-collar workers. He is only 203 tall, there is no threat to the outside, and there is no threat to cut to the basket. The King's formation can defend him as soon as it shrinks. Amino and Covington are taller than him.

Wade couldn't break through, the ball could not be divided, and several people on the outside were followed, so Pierce could only fight Covington alone, relying on technology to play, and the efficiency was not high under the interference of the opponent's long arm.

The reason why Pierce is willing to renew the Nets' contract with the veteran's basic salary is because he knows that he has no star strength and he can only be responsible for the best players on the defensive end.

The Kings attacked, and as soon as Wang Jun hit the pick-and-roll, Bogdanovic and Evans cried, Wade did not dare to chase, Patterson waited for the ball outside the three-point line to return. Amino moved at the bottom line, cutting back and forth, and facing Boldanovic, he had an advantage in his physical condition.

Wang Jun made consecutive breakthroughs and fouls, with accurate free throws, counterattacked 1 of 2 three-pointers, and attracted defensive assists Amino received a dunk. Amino made a fast break, and it was completely the guard who was playing power forward.

In 4 minutes, Thibodeau called it a timeout, and the score difference widened to 20 points.

The home fans were a little unacceptable, thinking that the All-Star Nets still couldn't beat the Kings' civilian lineup.

China Tencent Live, commentator Kefan and Yang Yi were chatting about the game, very relaxed.

Yang Yi commented: "The biggest suspense today is not who can win, but the king must win. It's just that I don't know how many points Wang Jun can win, and whether he can break the finals score record."

Kofan smiled and said, "In the past, he had to consider James's feelings and split the ball. James broke through a lot of time, and Wang Jun made three-pointers from the outside. Now James has returned to the Cavaliers, and Wang Jun has completely let go."

Yang Yi sighed: "If Wade had known that the king was so strong, he might have considered joining Wang Jun in the summer, even if he was a substitute, then there would be nothing to do with Kutney Lee."

The timeout ended, Paul and Randolph returned to the court, and Wang Jun was not resting yet.

Soon, Thibodeau and all the people who supported the Nets made a big deal happen, and Wang Jun went to guard against Paul. One-on-one, and Paul couldn't pass him.

It is undeniable that Paul has strong personal abilities, including emergency stop jump shots, throws, three-pointers, breakthroughs, assists, key balls, especially in controlling the team's rhythm, he is even more skilled.

But as a point guard, organization is the top priority. Paul often gives people the feeling that he is holding a fight. He is too pursuing rationality. It is obviously an unreasonable way to fight Wang Jun alone, so he has to find cover to get rid of it.

Paul played Aminu in a misplaced position, and performed well in a 50-point shooting percentage. Unfortunately, Wang Jun immediately hit a counterattack and turned into 100 hits. The Nets team could not defend against the misplaced inside the inside.

Paul's scoring ability is awesome, but he is not as good as Wang Jun, even worse than Kobe, James, and Durant.

After Carol appeared, Wang Jun played the guest point guard and passed the ball during counterattack. Carol forced Paul to take one, causing a foul. Paul would definitely not be able to defend Wang Jun, and Carol also suffered a loss in his health in 203.

No matter how good the defense awareness is, I can't stand my height of 183.

Wang Jun played a full score in this quarter and scored another 19 points, with 44 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in the first half, leading the team to lead 74-51.

Nets fans shouted loudly to cheer for the home team, which was useless. Nets tried double-teams and tried joint defense. Wang Jun broke through and passed the ball, and his teammates could also throw the ball in.

If it weren't for Cootney Lee, Covington missed an open three-pointer, and the Kings would have scored 80 points in the first half.

Most of the Nets fans are from Brooklyn, not the ones in New Jersey back then, so they don’t boo much about Wang Jun.

Barkley gloated: "The Nets have a sinner, that is Bruce Ratner. If he had not exchanged Wang Jun for Ben Gordon to add the draft pick, the Nets might have become an unimaginable wealthy family."

O'Neal smiled and said, "In that case, it will be difficult for Russians to buy the Nets. The Nets will be a stingy team that trades randomly. People like Ratner are not suitable for basketball. As soon as he sells the team, he will rise immediately."

Barkley said: "It is said that he still had some shares in the team at that time and was a small shareholder. He strongly recommended that the team trade with the Jazz in the mid-2010 for Deron Williams. Perhaps the management felt that this person was not good at using his brain and didn't listen to him, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. The Nets would definitely not enter the finals continuously, and they would bear the pain of the Knicks."

A thought made Paul successful and changed the team.

At that time, Deron's evaluation was not much lower than Paul, but there was a hidden danger of injury. Deron was still a thorn in conflict with the coach. Ironically, after leaving Coach Sloan and the Jazz's pick-and-roll offensive system, Deron was an ordinary defender.

Paul proved himself that he could not overcome the last hurdle. Wang Jun was an insurmountable wall for him.

In the second half, Joe Johnson rested, Pierce made a three-point shooting point, and the others were the starters.

The king also made adjustments. Whiteside and Gobert formed the double tower, Wang Jun, Kutney Lee, and Curry.

Net team fans all saw that something was wrong. Wang Jun’s goal was not just to lead the team to win, he also wanted to score high scores.

Wade, who was defending, did not score points, and it was not within the plan. The core of the Nets was not Wade, but Paul.

Therefore, Kidd also changed his defensive strategy, with 122 joint defense, Wang Jun was on the periphery, and the others contracted their formation, preventing breakouts but not attacking. This happened to target Thibodeau's tactics.

The Nets asked Wade to go on the stage to stabilize the defense and prevent Wang Jun from doing whatever he wanted, but Pierce and Paul were the only three-pointers on the court.

Wade was released on the periphery several times and couldn't help but pull out two three-pointers. With the slight interference of Cootney Lee, he all missed the basket.

At this moment, Wade seemed to have lost his heart and began to doubt himself.

Maybe he is the reason why the Heat cannot win the championship? Because he is often emptied on the outside.

This is why the Heat are reluctant to renew their contract with him because he cannot lead the team to win.

In 12 years, he couldn't even defeat himself and could not practice long shots. How could he defeat Wang Jun?

At this moment, he no longer regarded himself as a superstar and had no intention of being in a state of mind.

Once the shot fails to make the ball, Wang Jun immediately counterattacks, just like the Warriors in the last round of the series, his movements are not fancy at all, and he changes direction and jumps. In the past, the Suns had a five-second counterattack, but Wang Jun wanted to shoot the ball out in three seconds after counterattack. He only needed a little room to shoot.

Wang Jun made five three-pointers in a row and scored four goals.

After Pierce and Wade double-teamed, he forced a meter outside the three-point line from the left, Van Gundy shouted: "Wang Jun's current style of play is like McGrady's moment back then. He seems to treat the King as a backward side and create opportunities to shoot as quickly as possible. But the King is clearly ahead of 30 points, so I don't know how to describe his choice."

McBrien sighed: "He will definitely break the finals score record today. If he doesn't have a rest in the final quarter, he will score more than 70 points, and the Nets can't do anything to him."

Van Gundy smiled and said, "He kept running in the positional battle, and his physical strength is amazing. Now he feels like he just started the game."

Russian boss Prokorov is ready to apply to the league. After the game, Wang Jun went for a blood test and urine test, suspected that he had used stimulants.

In Russia, big-name athletes use stimulants and don’t take medicine and don’t join the national team. He feels it’s not clean.

The progress of this game is completely offset from the experts' predictions.

To be continued.
