Chapter 262: The Three Pairs That I Didn't Want
Zhao Wei looked at Pachuria's complaining and angry eyes, and said with a smile: "What are you doing with me?" Huoran? Wen???? ???.? r?a?n ?e?n?n?'n?e?t, you big guys can play back now. Why don't you let the defender play center? Really. ”
Burst! Pachulia felt a mouthful of old blood in her chest, almost holding back her internal injuries. Big man, that's a defender. It's just that the technology is more comprehensive. The big man just needs to practice his skills when he thinks of that achievement. But when a defender plays center, does that mean he can play? That's a congenital deficiency. It's not something that can be made up for by hard work. You, what's going on?
As the game progressed, Zhao Wei's performance became more and more excellent and stable. At first, Zhao Wei was indeed a little uncomfortable. Most of the time he was on the inside, severely limiting his play. But after Zhao Wei beat Pachulia a few times in a row, Zhao Wei's self-confidence came up, and he became familiar with this position. He's no longer just on the inside.
Defensively, he's on the inside. On the offensive end, Zhao Wei went to control the ball. With such earth-shaking changes, I am afraid that only Zhao Wei can do it now. Embarrassed countless old-timers, they are first-year rookies.
Because Zhao Wei grabbed rebounds on the inside on the defensive end, he could launch a counterattack immediately after grabbing the rebound. There is no need to waste time by passing the ball once. This is somewhat similar to Green's characteristics.
With this special Zhao Wei playing, the Lakers' offense also played a swift counterattack like the Warriors. It's just that the young guys aren't as consistent as the Warriors' shots. So the hit rate is low. But it doesn't matter, because Zhao Wei has an absolute advantage in the inside line against Pachuria. Zhao Wei's physical fitness is better than Pachuria's, and Pachulia is also shorter.
When Cole found out about this, he immediately replaced Pachuria. Replaced with McGee.
McGee's physical talent is superb. But McGee has always been a big five presence in the NBA. The main thing is the thinking of his head, which is really hard for you to understand. However, after joining the Warriors this year, it has been such a long time of training. McGee's performance has gotten much better. Successfully made it into the Warriors' rotation.
McGee came on the pitch and realized that both sides were starting to substitute for the bench. However, Zhao Wei still did not end up. Luke Wharton was determined to let Zhao Wei waste some physical strength, and quickly familiarized himself with the position of center in the first half of the game to prepare for the second half of the game.
Larynnance, Blake, Zhao Wei, Clarkson, and Nick Young are on the court. Luke Wharton didn't field veteran Luhr Deng. After all, Ruhr Deng is old, this is a pure speed vs. speed game, and Ruer Deng will delay the speed of the game on the field.
Zhao Wei mentioned the position of small forward. Zhao Wei faced Durant again.
The game between the two sides was deadlocked. Because Durant began to bombard the Lakers' basket like crazy. Even if Zhao Wei's defense is not weak, Durant's strength is indeed very strong. With his height of 2.10 meters and two arms, it is very difficult for Zhao Wei to block his shots. And it was Curry who cooperated with Durant on the court during this period of time. In this way, Curry is in possession of the ball, and Durant's main function is simplified, and what he does is shoot.
Usually it was Durant and Thompson who played off the bench. At that point, the ball is in Durant's hands. In two consecutive games, the Warriors will have a clear advantage against Durant at this stage. Zhao Wei is faster and shorter. Can easily cut off Durant's dribble. And Durant had to dribble. Because Thompson's dribbling level is really a big step worse than his shooting.
Now that Curry has the ball, all Durant has to do is catch and shoot, it's very simple. And now Durant's advantage is showing. Because of his prudence, in order to maintain his high hit rate. So Durant's shooting is very accurate. Zhao Wei's closure can't affect him. The shot point is too high.
Durant hit back-to-back mid-range shots and scored two three-pointers. The Warriors took the lead again. At this time, Kerr was relieved to replace Curry. He believes Durant won't squander the score advantage so quickly. It's a pity Cole was wrong.
Curry came off the court, although Kerr still sent Green who controlled the ball in order to prevent Durant from dribbling. It's a pity that he miscalculated the strength of the Lakers' side. Llarinance is a very passionate, hard-working ball player. Green came on the court as Lary Nance and Blake took turns draining Green's stamina. Green can be described as miserable. The strength of the Lakers' bench began to play.
Without Curry's suppression, Clarkson rushed up.
Zhao Wei passed the ball in the middle of the march, and after Clarkson received the ball, the crowd really found a little space after jumping three and two times. A basket lick to score the ball. That's where Clarkson comes in. He's very good at impacting, and he's always able to find those small spaces to throw the ball in.
As soon as the Warriors' offensive efficiency dropped, the Lakers' counterattack began. Zhao Wei advanced, and the others were responsible for burying their heads in the sprint. Larynnance and Blake drove to the basket, while Clarkson and Nick Young were in charge of the three-point ambush.
Zhao Wei's one-handed passing in the middle of the advance is surprisingly accurate, and he can always penetrate the Warriors' defense with precision. Zhao Wei simply treated Clark as nothing.
Clark, both physically and technically, is at an absolute disadvantage in front of Zhao Wei.
In just two rounds, he received two fouls on Zhao Wei.
Zhao Wei forcibly broke through, and Clark was hit by Zhao Wei's body and bounced off. But Clark was unwilling, after all, his heart kept telling him that he was Curry. Clark quickly caught up, and it was impossible to block and interfere with Zhao Wei. Clark used a move, and he directly wanted to hug Zhao Wei. But Zhao Wei's speed was too fast, he didn't get to Zhao Wei, but grabbed Zhao Wei's clothes.
Zhao Wei's jersey was torn for a long time.
However, Clark found that he did not stop Zhao Wei's ascension at all. As Clark pressed hard again, Zhao Wei's body was stunned in the air, and then just when Zhao Wei lost his balance and fell. Zhao Wei pulled a lever, and the ball hit the rebound and bounced into the basket.
2+1!!!
In the third goal, Clark lost even more miserably.
Zhao Wei made a feint on the outside, and Clark flew up. Zhao Wei leaned lightly and scored three points. Add an additional penalty. 3+1!!!
Clark was embarrassed and left at his grandmother's house. was crushed by Zhao Wei with his general strength. This also led to Clarke's first appearance after successfully squeezing out Livingston as the first backup point guard this season, and he was substituted after only two minutes of play, before the first quarter was over.
It's the first time Livingston has played this morning. The team has changed a lot since Durant arrived. Many of my friends are gone, and I have gone from an important substitute to a marginal person. But after all, he is a professional footballer. Think about the team in every moment of the team.
Livingston's appearance was a big obstacle to Zhao Wei. Livingston is tall and has good technique.
His defense is much better than Clark's. And Livingston's mid-range shot is very accurate.
Zhao Wei only had a slight upper hand in the competition with Livingston. However, the rest of the Lakers have already arrived. In the bench lineup, Zhao Wei's main responsibility is not to attack, but to organize.
Nick Young looked like he was not afraid of anyone, and he actually hit three three-pointers in front of Durant. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers regained the lead.
The bench lineup has once again become a lifesaver for the Lakers. Because Zhao Wei changed to play center and starting lineup, when the Lakers are not behind, the bench lineup can always provide enough points for the Lakers. In comparison, the Warriors' bench is much more shabby.
With six minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers led the Warriors by 10 points. As long as it sticks around, then this win will be for the Lakers. The two sides will be back on the same page.
Compared to the entanglement with the Warriors and the Lakers. The rest of the teams are much cleaner. The Clippers took out the Timberwolves 4-1 and the Spurs took out the Jazz 4-2. Probably the most unexpected is Team Rocket. The Rockets were turned over by the Thunder. 4:2 eliminated by the Thunder.
The game in the East is more clear.
The Cavaliers easily eliminated the Hawks 4-0. The Knicks eliminated the Pistons 4-0. Russell was an eye-catching performer, averaging 25 points per game and tied with Anthony for the team's lead.
The Dragons eliminated the Wizards 4-1, and the Celtics eliminated the Pacers 4-2.
The only one who didn't qualify right now is the Warriors, who have had the hottest season. It's a tough match against the Lakers, the weakest team in all of the playoffs. Just as the two sides begin their sixth game, the other 28 teams in the league are also watching the game.
The Cavaliers, in particular, saw the Warriors struggle so much. Bogut was overjoyed. Bogut was Durant's biggest casualty to joining the Warriors. Barnes was abandoned by the Warriors, but the contract expired just in time and he found a big contract of 94 million in the Mavericks. But Bogut was sold by the Warriors.
Bogut didn't return to the Warriors after being cut by the Mavericks. If he had signed with the Warriors at the veteran's base salary, the current Lakers would have had a lot of headaches. It is impossible for Zhao Wei to break through to the inside line so easily. Bogut retaliated by joining the Cavaliers with a veteran base salary. In other words, in Bogut's mind, he is no longer a member of the Warriors, and the Cavaliers have a higher chance of winning the championship than the Warriors.
Late in the fourth quarter, Kerr finally switched to his Death Five. And one of Luke Wharton's substitutions at this time was also unexpected. Luke Wharton has replaced Ingram, who he has been using since the playoffs. In place of Ingram was Ruhr Deng.
Luhr Deng didn't play the whole game, but Luke Walton didn't care about Ruhr Deng's form at all.
Ruhr Deng came on and played immediately. He's just calming the people on the pitch. The young man was too excited to play before. Now they are ahead, so they need to be consistent.
After Ruhrdon came on the pitch, he took over possession. Zhao Wei completely fell into the inner line to compete with Pachuria.
At this time, Zhao Wei's statistics have come to 20 points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists. The first triple-double is about to be reached.
Countless Chinese fans are counting in front of the computer whether Zhao Wei has grabbed another rebound. Because if Zhao Wei gets this rebound, he will make history and become the youngest person in Lakers history to get a triple-double. They even forgot about Zhao Wei, their biggest goal is to win this game. The more he reached the final stage, Pachulia showed his ruthlessness. Zhao Wei can no longer be as easy as on the inside. Pachulia gave Zhao Wei a very strong physical confrontation.
Zhao Wei never succeeded in getting the rebound, but Pachulia controlled the rebound.
With rebounding in control, the Warriors went on offense. But at this time, there was an accident on the field. Because Porzingis is in foul trouble. Luke Wharton had intended to bring him on again in the final three minutes. So now it's Blake on the field. But at this moment, when Pachulia pressed Zhao Wei behind him, Blake stabbed out diagonally to help Zhao Wei grab this rebound. He managed to get the rebound, but just as he hit the ground, Blake's foot accidentally stepped on Pachuria's foot. The entire ball of the foot is crooked ninety degrees. Blake fell to the ground, his face twisted together in pain.
The whole Lakers chuckled in their hearts, and Blake was a very important member of the Lakers. He's very important for the Lakers' rebounding protection. He was there, so McGee didn't take the lead when he came off the bench.
In the end, Blake could only be carried down by everyone. Porzingis was forced to play early. But it also became a fuse.
Porzingis came on and was a completely different person. He and Zhao Wei formed a connection. There is no appearance of a leader at all. Zhao Wei's internal line is stirred. The anger rose, and Zhao Wei's strength also exploded. It does not belong to the fighter Pachulia in the slightest.
Zhao Wei carried Pachulia with his back, retracted his strength, took three steps from the front, grabbed the ball with one hand to protect the side of his body, and hooked the ball into a sky hook.
Porzingis' touch also came, and he swished from outside the three-point line, and his shooting percentage was also quite good.
The Lakers ended up winning another game at home. They really pulled the game back to a 3-3 draw.
"I'm going to make your death ugly next time." This was Durant's last words to Zhao Wei.
"I'll let you know that you can't win a championship in a huddle." This was Zhao Wei's last words to Durant. At the same time, there is another thing that Zhao Wei only learned after the game that he got a triple-double. Because Blake was injured and the ball fell off, he didn't fully control the ball, so in the end it was Zhao Wei who caught the ball, so the final ball was recorded on Zhao Wei's head.
But when Zhao Wei received the news, he said a word to the media, which moved everyone.
"This rebound was put together by my brother, and my rebounds are still 9!" (To be continued.) )
