Chapter 112 I Became Dirk's Teacher?
Into January of the new year.
The Warriors are on a roll.
After defeating the Pistons 101:93, they embarked on a trip to Texas.
Richardson's comeback also brought some good news for the team.
"I've been suffocated! Let's keep winning in January!"
Richardson did not break his promise after his comeback.
His chemistry with the team was almost seamless.
Under the advice of the coaching staff, he strengthened his defense and three-point training.
Reduced individual singles.
This makes the Warriors' offensive and defensive rotations more reasonable.
After all, handing the ball to the man with the highest grip on the team makes things easier for everyone.
The Warriors beat the Rockets by 20 points and the Mavericks by 8 points.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang You faced Dirk Nowitzki again in the away game against the Mavericks.
And this time Dirk Nowitzki also showed a new weapon in front of Zhang You!
The golden rooster is independent!
This discovery made Zhang You's scalp tingle.
It turns out that the butterfly effect will also occur when the signature moves of future stars are free.
Let these stars comprehend the trick in advance!
Dirk Nowitzki deserves to be the person who pioneered this trick.
Moreover, Dirk Nowitzki's shooting seems to be more accurate than Zhang You now!
If it wasn't for Zhang You's strong bounce that interfered with his shooting, he would have a higher shooting percentage than himself.
When Dirk faced Robinson and Murphy, his golden rooster independence was even more accurate than Zhang You himself!
"There is no way around it. Nowitzki's mid-range shooting ability is temporarily higher than mine."
After Zhang You knew this, he also settled down and continued to focus on defense and rebounding.
So, even Dirk Nowitzki scored 25 points in this game.
Zhang You responded with 25+20 data and led the team to victory.
Post-match press conference
The reporters couldn't wait to ask Nowitzki this question.
"Dike, we saw that you used the same tricks as Zhang You in the game? It's a bit similar. Did you practice extra overnight?"
Losing made Nowitzki unhappy, but learning new tricks made him more confident about his future.
For this question, there was laughter all around.
Nowitzki himself smiled helplessly and said: "Yes, Zhang You said after the game against the Wizards that if we can, we can use it in front of him. I used a few in front of him today. , although I'm not very skilled yet, but I was pleasantly surprised to see him."
"But I feel a little strange."
strange?
The reporters looked at each other.
Nowitzki's expression became serious.
"I feel like this shot was born for me. He is obviously younger than me, like my mentor. Enough, he is like a shadow covering me. We have lost to the Warriors twice this season... ..."
Surprise!
Still frightened.
Of course Zhang You was pleasantly surprised.
Unexpectedly, it was just a joke of his own, and Dirk immediately cashed in.
Now, instead, he has become a promoter of "Golden Rooster Independence".
Zhang You is not afraid of all challenges.
I feel more motivated.
"Dirk has established for our young players the qualities that a superstar should possess. That is to keep learning and not afraid of challenges."
Zhang You even gave him a thumbs up.
April 1
A new round of voting for the 2003-04 All-Star Weekend League has been announced.
Zhang You once again took the lead without any suspense.
Carter, Garnett, Kobe, Dayao, McGrady, Iverson and others followed closely behind...
In addition to Zhang You, the Warriors, dunk king Richardson and Nick Van Exel also have high votes.
After returning to Auckland City.
Even Madman Fan couldn't help laughing at himself: "It seems that after being selected to the NBA All-Star team in 1998, I will have a second spring again!!"
Richardson also echoed with a smile: "This is all thanks to Zhang You. I think these votes are all from the lovely Huaxia fans."
"I can't wait until All-Star Weekend."
The atmosphere in the team is relatively relaxed.
Since Zhang You and Richardson were absent at the end of December and lost to the Lakers.
They have not lost in January, and the team has won 1 consecutive victories.
It is worth mentioning that.
The Los Angeles Lakers recently lost.
The absence of O'Neal and Malone due to injury caused them big problems.
Even though Kobe has tried his best to score close to 30 points per game.
But they still lost to the Nuggets, Eagles, and Timberwolves successively!
Fortunately, Kobe led the team just broke free from the mud of a three-game losing streak and killed the Eagles to stop the bleeding.
The Warriors with 27 wins and 7 losses have now surpassed the Lakers with 21 wins and 11 losses to reach the top of the league!
Their opponent tonight is the Seattle SuperSonics in the West.
Again, this is a team with strong offense and weak defense.
The strongest point of the Warriors compared to the season is not just Zhang You's improvement in offense and defense.
More importantly, while Zhang You was making progress.
The offensive quality and defensive quality of the Warriors have made a complete breakthrough.
In this month, they have never allowed an opponent to score more than 95 points!
The Warriors themselves averaged 102.5 points per game.
But even so, the Warriors coach Musselman is not satisfied.
The interview with Mourinho before the game also expressed his mentality of being prepared for danger in times of peace.
"Although we replaced the Lakers as the number one in the league, as you know, the Lakers have suffered injuries on the inside. This also sounded the alarm for us. Zhang You is very capable and played a dominant performance, but we can't just rely on him One hit five! Others must stand up and give him more support on the defensive end and offensive end!"
"Zhang You or the Warriors' goal this season is the championship?"
"Of course, the moment every player steps on the court in the NBA, his goal should be the championship, and the team is no exception."
After the pre-match interviews, the game started immediately.
Sonics starters: Brent Barry (PG), Ray Allen (SG), Rashard Lewis (SF), Vladimir Radmanovic (PF) , Vitali Potapanko (center)
Warriors starting: Van Exel + Richardson + Battier + Robinson + Zhang You
In the commentary seat, Roy and his old partner were discussing the opponent's strength.
"Tonight, Zhang You's challenge in the interior is probably not as good as that of the Wizards..."
"But we can't relax. You must know that these guys on the Sonics are all guys who can shoot!"
The narrator Roy analyzed well.
The Sonics' starting four can shoot three-pointers, and the bench can also shoot three-pointers.
And they are all well-known shooters in the league.
At the beginning, Zhang You jumped the ball to give the Warriors their first chance to attack.
Zhang You, like Dayao, now comes to the low post to ask for the ball.
Vitaly Potapanko is about the same height as Zhang You, but his strength is completely inferior to Zhang You.
After Zhang You received the ball in the low post, he headed up and turned around.
He also wanted to shoot with a hook or a fadeaway, but he didn't expect the opponent to be pushed out of the baseline by him.
resignedly.
Then he had to end it with a two-handed dunk.
The Warriors fans in front of the TV also expressed helplessness.
"The Supersonic's inside line is too soft. Zhang You thinks of himself as Shaquille O'Neal. The opening is a shark attack!"
"At the beginning, the Supersonics were careless and wanted to wait and see not to double-team, but Zhang You met Ben Wallace and O'Neal sometimes needed double-teams!"
supersonic attack
After coming to the frontcourt, Barry, the white trapeze who was in possession of the ball, handed the ball to Ray Allen.
Ray Allen chews his gum casually on the ball.
After aiming at a gap in the pick-and-roll, he stepped on the ground.
"Whoosh!" Almost slipped through Zhang You's armpit!
"Fix the defense!"
Zhang You's reminder is of no avail!
Ray Allen rushed into the inside of the Warriors and took off in the paint!
"Boom!"
A backhand split button.
He flew up and landed, supporting himself with both hands.
elegant.
do not forget!He was the runner-up in the 96 dunk contest! !
