Chapter 128: Love Is Like a Tide
Super Stay + Extreme Railing + Picturesque Big Loop Layup!
Although Yi Feng stumbled a little after landing on the ground, the shock he brought to people was incomparable. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He looked back to see who had tried to get him.
I saw Draymond Green mechanically rubbing the palm of his right hand with his left hand, and the expression on his face was a little dull.
It turned out that he was the one who made a loud rebound just now! No wonder I'm still rubbing it. Yi Feng wanted to laugh in his heart.
However, he was also secretly surprised, he didn't expect Draymond Green, as the No. 4 position, to be the fastest defender in the team except for Klay Thompson!
And Thompson is just because he is staring at himself at all times, so he is also on guard against his own quick down.
It's no wonder that Draymond Green has quickly become a talking point in the league lately. Not only because he likes to spray people with a big mouth, but also because he has the strength as a guarantee for spraying people.
Although he is only 201cm tall, he doesn't look as tall as Yi Feng. But his core strength is very good, he is very stable in the lower game, and he can withstand players who are half a head or even a head above him on the inside.
It can be said that he is the most basic and important prerequisite for the Warriors' "Death Five" lineup to take shape. Because in this lineup that terrifies other players in the league, he is not only an offensive playmaker, but also an interior barrier, and a rebounding protector!
In fact, at the time of the 2012 draft, no one was optimistic about Draymond Green. Although he has speed and flexibility compared to many big men on the inside, his height is really not enough, and it is difficult for a short inside line to mix up. So in the end, he fell to the second round before being drafted by the Warriors.
Later, according to his own disclosure, he hated the teams that had selected him in the first place, but did not choose him. As a result, he recorded 34 rookies from the first to the 34th pick in 2012 because he was drafted by the Warriors with the 35th pick.
Draymond Green's rookie season was nothing but a commendable moment. On this special day on December 12, 2012, he scored a 0.9-second layup in a game between the Warriors and the Heat, killing the Heat who still had the big three of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh at the time.
Aside from this stunner, there have been no highlights from his rookie season. So before this game, in the acupuncture between the Warriors and the Lakers, Randle will compare Draymond Green's rookie season performance with Yi Feng's current performance.
In the 2013-14 season, Draymond Green's strength was steadily improving, but it did not come to the fore. Except for Warriors fans, no one knew of such a personal existence.
It wasn't until the 2014-15 season, when Steve Kerr coached the Warriors, that he finally got the chance to change the fate of his life.
In Kerr's tactical system, Draymond Green is not only the playmaker, but also the defensive gate. After being put in this position, his ability was reflected, and his statistics also ushered in an explosion - averaging 11.7 points, 8.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game!
In the end, not only did he help the Warriors win the championship, but he was also ranked among the NBA All-Defensive Team No. 1 team.
And this season is even more exaggerated, his statistics have soared, and so far he has averaged 15.1 points, 9.2 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game! Only played 15 games, but already got two triple-doubles!
He can score such all-round statistics not because he has the ability to match LeBron James, but because of the Warriors' system. He is a very typical beneficiary of the system. If it weren't for the "Splash Brothers", a backcourt combination with the best projection ability in history, his assist stats would not be so high.
Of course, it cannot be denied that he has a certain level of organization and passing ability, otherwise Kerr would not have let him take on this responsibility.
Just now, he sent a brilliant pass to Bogut, which was enough to show his passing vision and passing skills; Although in the face of Yi Feng's super big loop layup, his defense did not make any contributions, but it was enough to show a positive defensive attitude.
If it's not Yi Feng who just lays the basket, then Draymond Green will be able to defend it nine times out of ten.
After all, being able to play such an artistic goal is no longer a matter of defensive ability.
Let's see what Maddie thinks of this ball.
“so-beautiful!”
"Look at the jump height, what a strong jumping ability is required!"
"Look at this time in the air, what a strong waist and abdomen strength is needed!"
"Look at this ecstasy, what a soft shooting feeling it takes!"
In front of this perfect shot, even Chris Webb, who supported the Warriors, was impressed, "It's really wonderful!" I can't remember how long it's been since I've seen a layup like this in the league. ”
There are really not many people in the league who can make such layups. Not only should you have the physical fitness of a trapeze man, but also have a soft wrist comparable to that of a good shooter, and most importantly, the whole set of movements should be smooth and natural, and the weight should be light.
In other words, it should be picturesque. Otherwise, it will look like a cramping grasshopper...... Here, LeBron James became the first to be hacked. His physical fitness requirements can naturally be easily met, and the hand feel requirements are also okay, but the movement is picturesque, and everyone on the earth knows it......
However, no matter how perfect the layup is, it is only a two-point shot. The referee will not give you extra points.
That's Curry's mindset at this moment.
And compared to his own three-point shot, no matter how good a layup is, it is also inferior!
After receiving Draymond Green's serve from the baseline, Curry thought about it while holding the ball forward.
And it just so happens that Draymond Green's thoughts are exactly the same as his.
Green yelled at his teammates, "Don't care about this ball, he's just a normal layup!" ”
Draymond Green's purpose is naturally to dispel the impact of Yi Feng's layup on the Warriors players.
His voice was so loud that it naturally made Yi Feng hear.
Yi Feng secretly said in his heart: I can't pretend that I didn't hear what you said! Since you think this kind of layup is quite ordinary, then I want to show you a truly unusual layup!
Of course, even Yi Feng would be difficult to make a more perfect layup than this one. But in the layup, it includes a dunk, and a dunk is also a layup.
Since Draymond Green thinks this layup is ordinary, let him see a more shocking dunk!
Yi Feng, whose thoughts were flying in his heart, was distracted, but Klay Thompson seized the opportunity to get rid of him.
Thompson quickly reversed and opened up the distance between him and Yi Feng.
Curry, who was holding the ball, spotted Thompson's chance to run out and threw the ball over hard.
The ball flew 45° beyond the three-point line on the right, and Thompson happened to be there!
After Thompson received the ball, he turned around and jumped to the basket when he didn't stand firm at all!
And because of the distraction of thinking about other things, Yi Feng, although he chased Thompson relentlessly, the gap that was opened up was not so easy to catch up.
Although he was able to beat Thompson with speed and explosiveness, he didn't have the space to get a full start in such a short distance.
In the end, it couldn't interfere too much with Thompson's shot.
Because Thompson not only played his cards according to common sense, he was in a hurry to shoot without standing firm, and even his shooting speed was very fast, and he gradually had a tendency to move closer to Curry.
Although Thompson's shot looked very nonsense, it ended up passing through the middle of the basket and setting off a white wave.
It really deserves the name of "Splash Brothers"!
Three-point shots are so unreasonable!
If Curry's first three-pointer was conventional, his second long-range three-pointer was a bit unreasonable. However, Thompson's three-point shot is even more unreasonable!
From the beginning to the present, the backcourt combination of Curry and Thompson has made three three-point shots! Even the three-pointers they threw were hollow into the net, and they didn't even touch the basket!
Not only can you shoot accurately, but you can also change your shooting posture at will!
Maddie couldn't help but worry about the Lakers, such a terrible Warriors, can the Lakers really win?
was completely different from Maddy's reaction, Chris Webber smiled, "Tracy, look at the Warriors' hot hand, how to shoot!" All four of the opening shots were hit, and the shooting rate was 100 percent! Their offense is like the waves of the sea, making the Lakers unguardable! ”
Maddie also cleaned up her mood and joked, "That's because the Warriors' love for the Lakers is too deep, love is like a tide, and it will never stop!" ”
Mark Jackson said: "Wave after wave of offensives is simply suffocating! If the Lakers don't do something, I'm afraid they will die of suffocation. ”
After Thompson hit this unreasonable three-pointer, the score was rewritten to 7:11, and the Lakers were still on the trailing side.
Scott asked for a timeout.
That's when he had to. Even if you don't set anything up during a timeout, you have to interrupt the Warriors' hot hand that melts the basketball.
Scott gathered the starting five, took the tactics board, turned up the volume and began to lay out the tactics. Because the enthusiasm of the fans in the Oracle Arena was detonated by Thompson's three-point shot, they chanted the name of the Warriors in unison.
“warriors!”
“warriors!”
“warriors!”
In such a situation, Scott had to turn up his volume to the maximum. But despite this, Yi Feng still didn't hear what he was saying, only saw his two mouths one by one.
Then his thoughts began to fly again-
Unexpectedly, not only Curry's three-point ability is so rebellious, but even Thompson's three-point ability is not bad at all!
Maybe it's because of his calm expression that hasn't changed for thousands of years and his low-key personality that he was unconsciously ignored?
Or is it because Curry is so dazzling that he obscures his light? After all, Curry was the regular season MVP last season, and this season has always dominated the top spot in the MVP list, so he has a good chance of being able to run a row.
But it is precisely because Curry's light is so dazzling that Thompson is like a sword hidden in this light. As an opponent, it's hard to perceive his danger, but when you're pierced by a sword, you realize how deadly you've overlooked.
After all, the person who can achieve a miracle of 37 points in a single quarter cannot be a weak person in any case!
On January 24 of this year, in the Warriors' home game against the Kings, Klay Thompson scored 37 points on 13-of-13 shooting in the third quarter, setting a new personal single-quarter scoring record in NBA history, surpassing the NBA single-quarter scoring record of 33 points held by Carmelo Anthony and "Iceman" George Gervin! At the same time, hitting 9 three-pointers in a single quarter also set a new record for individual three-pointers in a single quarter in NBA history!
Yi Feng was thinking about whether to strengthen his defense against Thompson, but he found that someone patted him on the shoulder-
"Easy?"
"Easy!"
"Are you too tired?"
"If you're tired, I'll let Nick play for you."
Yi Feng looked at it, and it turned out to be Scott talking to him.
"Oh, it's okay...... Coach, I'm fine, I'm not tired at all! ”
Yi Feng found that he was particularly fond of desertion today, not only was he a little distracted when defending, but he didn't even pay attention to the coach's tactics during the pause.
That's not going to work!
Yi Feng has long let go of the media, saying that he wants to stop the Warriors from making history and end their winning streak! How can you be distracted in such an important game?
If in the end, because of this reason, the Lakers lost, then Yi Feng would not forgive himself.
If you don't go all out, how can you do a good job of guarding the Great Demon King?
The timeout ends and the game continues.
Lakers offense.
At present, the 7 points scored by the Lakers are all points from individual ability, singles, and no assists.
On the contrary, the Warriors' 11 points created 3 assists.
It's clear that the Warriors are a more team-oriented, team-oriented team.
During the pause, Scott made targeted deployments on this issue. It's not on the offensive end, though, it's on the defensive end.
While the Lakers' seven points came from individual singles, Scott didn't see anything wrong with that. Regardless of whether it is a black cat or a white cat, if it can catch mice, it is a good cat.
What Scott cares about is that in the face of the overall coordination of the Warriors, the Lakers' defense is obviously not satisfactory. Therefore, during the timeout, he asked the players to be more aggressive and change their defenses more aggressively!
Doesn't the Warriors love to do pick-and-rolls and covers?
In this case, Scott asked the disciples to change their guards whenever they took cover! Ask for as fast as you can! Try not to give too many open seats to Warriors players!
Especially Curry and Thompson, he requires defenders to stick to them all the time, leaving no gaps for them, and I can't wait to be conjoined babies!
However, this requirement is difficult for strong people after all. Not only can Curry have a strong independent offensive ability, but also excellent off-ball skills, and it is really difficult for Clarkson, a sophomore, to limit him.
And Thompson has gradually developed a back-to-back playing ability, and he is becoming more and more experienced in breaking through with the ball, plus he was originally a shooter, and his off-ball skills are equally strong, although Yi Feng has defensive ability, he can't meet Scott's requirements.
