Chapter 1259: The Gap Between Men and Boys
After the victory over the Hornets, the league's latest weekly best was also released, this time swept away by Durant and Wade. Old man Wade talked about juvenile madness, cut down the data of 28+6+6 in a week, led the team to 4 consecutive wins, and there was no problem for him. Durant also won the best of the week last week because he averaged 34.7 points, 11.7 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. This thing has a certain "aesthetic fatigue nature", Tang Qian took too much in front of him, including the section where the gods descended to earth, and the data was too good, so after returning to normal later, even if it was still very good, it would always give people the illusion of declining performance.
And on the first day of February, the outside world suddenly released a big news, and the person who broke the news was known as Adrian. Wokina Loski, who claimed on his Twitter account that several teams in the league have been brewing big deals lately. It's likely to be a big multi-party deal. Adrian. The news released by Wokinnaloski is basically groundless, otherwise his revelations would not have been sought after and recognized by so many people. However, he did not release a specific team at one time, probably because he wanted to whet his appetite and let people's expectations rise and then release it step by step.
This is also one of his revelation routines. It's annoying, but you can't stand it.
Because, people are just right, right?
The Lakers' office of the president of operations is sitting in three high-level roads:
"I didn't expect Adrian. Wokinnarowski is so well-informed, it's really powerful, we haven't been negotiating for long, right? Did he get the news? ”
"It can't be betrayed by someone inside, right?"
"No, it won't. Adrian. Wokinnalosky has always had a special channel for information, and there is no need to inquire about this, no one knows it at the moment. It is said that many times the four major media buy intelligence and first-hand information in his hands, you think about it. ”
"Everyone, stop, don't go far, that's not something we should care about. What we need to do now is to do a good job in this three-way transaction. Try to maximize the interests of your team. ”
"That makes sense, then Erwin, I think the other party's offer is still a bit high. But Larry wants this guy very much, what do you think? Is it worth it? I think we've got a little bit more at the stakes, right? ”
"I think we can change another player from the other side, the price can't be too high, otherwise it's going to be difficult, and everyone is not stupid. Larry, is there anyone over there? ”
"Yes, you see."
"Well, this price is indeed not high, and the difficulty of trading is not particularly great, but I don't know if it is good or not, and whether it is suitable for our team system. And this guy has a bad temper, he won't come over and become a locker room buster, right? That's more than worth the loss. ”
"Rest assured. Our team is the most consistent locker room in the entire league. There is a hot spot, believe me, no one can afford to turn up the wind and waves. Even if he comes, even if he is a thorn, he will be cut down quickly. Our No. 29 has such a powerful magic, doesn't it? ”
"haha~ I think it's violence~ But it seems to be true, so otherwise, it's decided. How about a vigorous operation that increases the value of our chips along the way? It's best to face a weak team or garbage time, and let him play a good game, so that he will be more attracted and bargaining. ”
"Yes, I'll negotiate with Larry. If you don't have anything to do, let's get here today and go and get busy. ”
"Okay~Erwin~ We're all looking forward to your magic trick this time."
"You're the general manager."
"You're the president. It's still your big one. ”
……
On February 2, U.S. time, the Lakers played at home against the Timberwolves, which was also a classic game that was not broadcast live in the United States. Of course, this classic means not that the two sides played fiercely, but to see how the Los Angeles Lakers hammered the Minnesota Timberwolves. At the beginning of this game, Downs scored 2 consecutive runs, and just when he was feeling good about himself, "The Big Devil" took the initiative to find him.
Tang Qian stared at it, followed closely throughout the whole process, and let him not have a few chances to catch the ball in the first quarter of the game.
Isn't it, big brother, you are also guarding against me too early, this is only the first section, is it necessary to be so tight? Let's eat chicken together, play games, brush data, hello, hello, everyone, isn't it good? Do you have to play like this?
If Tang Qian could hear it, then he would definitely tell him personally, yes, I just want to "only be good for me" and "not let you be good". I'm such a "cold-blooded pervert", what can you do? If you're not convinced, you're coming to bite me.
In the second quarter, the Timberwolves played a quick defensive counterattack, Wiggins made a sharp stop at the free throw line, and then broke through Ariza to score the ball. Randle was slow to help defend and let Wiggins get his hands on it. Wiggins hadn't been complacent for long, and he vaguely heard the player on the other side say, "Hey, Trevaux, you're too bad, aren't you, so easy to get his hands on?" If I defended, he wouldn't have scored this goal! So being provoked by these teammates on the outside, the next time Ariza saw Wiggins, the whole person was like a hungry wolf, staring at Wiggins, who likes to play "wolfberry health basketball", a little overwhelmed.
What are you doing? Got the wrong medicine? What are you doing so violently? Not playing the playoffs again?
What does Wiggins say, the ability is still there, but it is so high, if he does not demand himself higher in mental attributes and does not make a breakthrough, then in the future, it is difficult to say that he can surpass the All-Star level. And it's not a good thing that he likes to play "health basketball" at such a young age. This has greatly weakened his impact and defense.
In the original time and space, drinking wolfberry tea and playing health balls is a very famous joke of Wiggins. started "health preservation" so early, so that his retiring spirit and fighting spirit were also consumed, and he even had the intention of quitting the boss dispute. This is really, a second and third leader who is very popular with players. It's a pity that his defense is not good, and it is useless to say this. Under his defense, the statistics of the opposing players are close to the open shots, do you say that this defense is "against the sky"?
Seeing that Ariza was pressing so tightly, Wiggins simply didn't bother to ask for the ball, recuperate, run and run, and have a chance to shoot again. This personality is really a rare "champion". Wiggins, who was on the perimeter, stopped asking for the ball, and the Timberwolves' singles immediately came to a standstill. Mitchell opted to play tactical ball. This pushed the Timberwolves into the fire pit. Because everyone knows that his own tactical level is like that, and secondly...... The core of the Timberwolves team is so young, one first-year and one second-year, what other high-level tactics can you expect them to play? The overall rhythm of chaotic battles is more suitable.
Downs misses when attacking the basket, and his "soft" body is really a "pure" spatial interior line. It is indeed a mismatch for him to play a lot of players, those who are stronger than him are not as fast as him, those who are faster than him are not as strong as him, those who are taller than him are slower, and those who are shorter than him can play directly and receive less interference. It seems that he is really a perfect space inside line in this era. Quite in line with the needs of this era. However, if you encounter a player like Tang Qian, it can only be a dumb fire. To put it simply, once Downs's misalignment advantage disappears, all the abilities he was praised for before will disappear.
And Tang Qian found a very important thing about him, that is, the other party is not good at strong physical confrontation, and he doesn't like to do this, and sometimes he deliberately "hides and plays", playing like this, the regular season is okay, and when he enters the playoffs, there will definitely be a big decline in data. Abusiveness and ambition are too bad.
However, Tang Qian doesn't have a good impression of this player, although he can't say that he hates it, but he will definitely not say anything more to him. If you want to dial the juniors, it also depends on the mood and face. It's a pity that Downs doesn't have it on Tang Qian's side at all.
At the urging of Downs, Sam. MITCHELL WITH 211CM GORGY. Dieng and he form an inside twin tower to face the Lakers' challenge. Well, the main thing is that he wants to take himself out of the center forward position, so he has to find someone who can come over and take the pot. Gorgy. Giang became the best "potter". This season's data averages about 10+7+1+1 per game, and the performance is not up or down, barely qualified. But this era is a passable interior can mix up a good contract, Gorgi. It seems that Jean has also eaten the "dividends" of this era.
Can play, Gorgi. Of course Gyan also feels good, because you have to play to get the stats, right? He, the most ordinary player in the NBA, is not a star, and he needs playing time to improve his value. However, he immediately felt that this was a pit. It's a "sinkhole".
The 29th opposite, he's a "Warcraft", no, it's the "Devil" wow.
This off-ball air cut, down, basket, basket hard play, etc., all let himself have no way at all, and at the same time, he also let himself not brush the data. I've been rebounding for so long, and I haven't touched a single one! This, this, this...... Isn't that kidding yourself? If you can't "brush" the data on the field, then why do you come up? Come up and scold.
If you don't have data, you also occupy playing time, and you see what the outside world will scold you for.
. D~ It's not a good thing, it's a big hole. Carl picked up a few rebounds outside, isn't that too miserable? Gorgy. Jia was a little unconvinced, but No. 29 just let him not get a single rebound in the entire second quarter. In addition, he was killed and injured four defensive fouls on the offensive end.
Inside the locker room Gorgy. There is no doubt that Jia Ang has been criticized, and he himself is powerless to defend himself, because looking at the data, it is indeed bad, can he say that it is very? I can only bow my head and admit it. However, he couldn't have played at the beginning of the third quarter, so Carl. Towns had to go back to the inside basket.
The Lakers' home commentators also teased Towns from time to time:
That's the power of the league's No. 1 center, why don't you learn it well?
I'd love to see Downs rebel, but it doesn't look like there's much of a chance.
Downs really couldn't resist, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't. He has fully felt the power of the league's No. 1 center, and his previous pride in the league is not worth mentioning at all. This is a kind of crushing concept.
If he were a fan himself, then he would definitely say that Dongfang is hot and good wow~ This champion is a good dish wow~ It's far from it~
Tang Qian held the ball inside, and with a back turn, he hit Downs into the basket, and then a backhand was an inverted dunk. McDonald roared:
Ah~ha~ can't stop it at all~~~~~
This has become a common phrase in the Staples Center for many years to come.
Tonight, Timberwolves' Towns fully played out what the power gap is.
. T's famous columnist Kate. Marin wrote directly on the front page of his column:
A duel between a man and a boy. If you're not sure what a man is and what a boy is, tonight's game is one of the best notes.
And, the most unfortunate thing is that Downs was also dunked by Tang Qian, and the ball after the dunk was smashed directly above his head.
Haw~ Downs only felt that the top of his head was numb, and he didn't stand firm when he landed, and slipped and fell to the ground.
Then this scene was captured by a reporter in the field, and the picture is called: The True King.
One stood and looked down, the other fell on the floor and looked up, and the height of the two was immediately distinguished.
"I said man, you have to work hard if you want the future to belong to you." Tang Qian also ran away a little funny, and the general tone of this game was also set. It didn't take long for the fourth quarter to go into garbage time, and most of the Lakers' main players were out of the game. Only one Butler was left on the field to lead the team. I thought that I would be caught up by the other party a lot, but the other party did not go down to Downs and Wiggins. As a result, unexpectedly, Butler actually took the substitute in the Lakers bench, that is, the water cooler player, to beat the opponent violently!
Instead of narrowing, the score difference has been widened to 30 or 40 points, which is a bit of a surprise.
Afterwards, Butler also said why he played so fiercely in the fourth quarter, and it was Towns who took the initiative to "diss" him after scoring a goal. Now, let Butler give Mao, yes, you are talented, you are favored by God and you are a big long arm, so, you can talk to me like this? Who do you think you are?
Do you think you're the number 29 on our team?
Nonsense!! Butler, who has a temper, is dry, and under his leadership, the Lakers' water cooler is pressing the main force of the Timberwolves to play. McDonald didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say with a smile:
Butler + Lakers' three teams tonight are also greater than the Timberwolves' main lineup.
The Timberwolves' double champion suddenly felt that time was passing very slowly, and he couldn't wait to end it soon.
The Lakers scored 95 points in the whole game, and the opponent only scored 55 points, and won by 40 points, which made the opponent a little embarrassed. The most important thing is that this kind of low-score suppressive victory is a bit "humiliating". Why, if it is a game with 120,130 points, then the losing side loses by 40 points, and at least the total score of 80~90 can be cut, so that as a star, the data can be somewhat guaranteed. What else can I say, the Timberwolves lost but XXX didn't lose. After all, the data is still passable, isn't it? But if it's only 55 points in the game, then no matter how good it is, it's so good.
Downs made 7 of his 19 shots from the field, shooting 36 percent from the field, which is an interior player. Although there were a lot of rebounds in garbage time, it didn't make much sense. His contest with Tang Qian in this game can be described as a complete defeat, no, it is almost the same as being completely blown up. The word defeat is no longer sufficient. Wiggins shot 4-of-15 from the field, shooting about 26%, he didn't perform much tonight since Ariza defended hard, and the feeling of flying kites on the outside was not good, so after the game, the shooting percentage was a mess. Except for the two of them, the rest of them were even worse, Gorgi. Dieng only scored a 3-pointer, Rubio was suppressed by Rondo, shooting 1 of 10 in the first three quarters, and then swiped a little bit in garbage time. As a point guard tonight, he made a whopping 7 turnovers, which is definitely a number that cannot be easily forgiven.
On the Lakers' side, Tang Qian once again cut down the data of 20+20, and it seems that this kind of data has become a standard and routine operation for him. Easy. Also, his average data per game exceeds this, so what's so strange about getting it? Maybe the fans will be a little surprised if they don't get it.
If this continues, it is the beginning of a kind of "spoiling" of fans.
If you use this standard to evaluate and look at others, then what's the point? How many people can get into it?
Therefore, Tang Qian wants to "spoil" his fans.
Secondly, Butler also scored nearly 30 points, and he led the team to continue to kill in garbage time, which also allowed him to score quite a few points tonight. For the rest, the scores were relatively average, and there were no more than double digits.
The strength of the Lakers team is slowly beginning to be accepted, and it is no longer the same as at the beginning of the season, which makes people feel that they are just lucky.
The top three in the West, everyone estimates that they are almost these ones, the Warriors, Spurs, Lakers, and they are also the top three in the current league, and the horror of the West can be seen. It's about fighting, and that's the internal battle between the three of them. It's really not easy for other teams to intervene.
As for the Downs? Tang Qian said in an interview:
Not bad.
And then there was no then. It is clear that his attention is not at all in this called Carl. Downs' champion show.
At present, the latter is not worthy of Tang Qian's attention to him.
PS: Let's start with a 5k big chapter ~ Xiao Zi continues to write Ha ~~~~~~
By the way, complaining, Xiao Zi watched the video replay in the new season, and it was really ...... Drunk, many people may not know that this season the NBA has revised the rules, and the secondary offense has changed from the previous 24 seconds to 14 seconds, greatly speeding up the offense and the number of offensive rounds. At the same time, this season, it is necessary to pay close attention to off-ball defensive fouls to make it easier to score. Races around 120 points are everywhere. Even both teams soared close to 140 points. There was also a nearly 150 points without overtime. I'm dizzy, the Big Bang era is coming, and it's going to make some of the previous data look even more shrunk and worthless.
The era of the Big Bang of contracts and the era of the Big Bang of Data are also a perfect match.
It's not unusual to cut 150~160 points in a game, everyone~
