Chapter 1309: In the first battle of the series, our enemy is only the west
On April 17, the Lakers welcomed their first playoff opponent at home Staples Center. This opponent is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Speaking of the Thunder team, since Tang Qian joined the NBA, he has had a fight. It was 2012, the Lakers and the Thunder entered the tie-break, killing seven games, and Tang Qian, who was still a rookie, scored 5 blocks, 8 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block, 21 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 11 blocks, 16 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, 6 points, 5 rebounds, 13 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 11 blocks, 14 points, 16 rebounds, 2 assists, and 3 rebounds and 1 assist. He averaged 4.1 blocks, 11.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.1 steals per game. The Lakers failed to steal seven that year and unfortunately went out. That year, the Thunder was very fierce, and the well-known team in the league, one of the Western seeded teams, but now, there is a trend of decline more and more. T relayed,. T TV was also very attentive and helped fans recall the short video of the fierce battle between the young No. 29 and the Thunder. At the same time, the series data of Tang Qian was released.
This made many Lakers fans feel a little like a world away, it turned out that the rookies were so big in such a flash.
Because of this data, a vote was set off on the Internet about how Tang Qian's series could surpass the average data of the first year of the Thunder series. I don't know how, but at the same time, this voting link was launched, and then according to the winner's side, fans were randomly selected to get a pair of Tang Qian's signed sneakers. At the beginning of the night, Barkley and the rest of the group also talked about it, and Barkley thought that at least 3 times it, absolutely no problem. Kenny. Smith seconded, Reggie. Miller thinks it's possible. O'Neill deliberately sang the opposite, he said that for the sake of the effect of the show, don't be optimistic, lest Tang Qian fail to meet the standard and slap us in the face of the group of "Emperor Football". said so, but according to O'Neill's inertia that has always looked down on Tang Qian, no one thinks that he is doing a simple "show effect". Some Tang Qian fans directly sprayed O'Neill as a "small-bellied chicken intestine".
Tang Qian has also heard about this matter, he said that he doesn't care, anyway, it is certain.
It's hard to say how much. I'll do my best anyway. I can't say that I'm not as good as the rookie I was back then.
His words are different now that they are spoken before, and if they were changed to before, they would definitely be ridiculed by many people, and the interior players of the Thunder team would have fought back a little. But if you look at it now, the Thunder's interior is silent and doesn't have any intention to refute. And the outside world is also speculating that this time he will kill himself several times as much as he was a rookie.
It's one-sided.
This kind of decline, even ESPN, can't be stopped at a macro level.
Of course, they themselves may not believe that the Thunder's Adams can limit the No. 29.
People who still think like this now probably have a bad brain, not black, but stupid.
In terms of absolute strength, Tang Qian has secured the position of the league's No. 1 center after this season, and no one can compare with him for the time being. Challengers, none. Not a single one. Looking at the final individual data list of this season, Tang Qian's scoring list ranks seventh, averaging 25.1 points per game. The decimal point is slightly higher than that of Damian. Lillard's 25.1. The rebounding list is undoubtedly the absolute first place, with 23.5 rebounds rounded off to the nearest decimal, which is a big cut ahead of the second place. Zhuang Shen is in second place this season, he can average 15.8 rebounds per game, and it is really because of competition that he can improve, which is a lot stronger than his original time and space this season. In third place is Jordan Jr., who can also average 14.5 rebounds per game. This season's rebounding list looks of high quality, and it is also the highest quality rebounding list since the 21st century. It's a pity that Tang Qian was too domineering and destroyed everyone by himself. It is very similar to Rodman's average of 5~6 rebounds per game when he was leading alone, and it is stronger. This kind of data is desperate, many people are speechless about Tang Qian's brutal rebounding performance, and even some super inside celebrities are now starting to speak out, they definitely don't want to compete with this No. 29 in rebounding. The Lakers' No. 29 is already beyond the category of super rebounders, and he has touched the realm of the rebounding god. Rodman really taught a super face-saving disciple.
Don't say it, people don't waste the opportunity to hype up a wave of their own offseason player training camp again, even if someone has been deceived last year, there are still guinea pigs who are willing to be deceived in order to improve themselves. This also made Rodman feel very cool, and he didn't teach this Oriental kid in vain.
Tang Qian remained silent about Rodman's behavior, since he did not support or stop it, but he still firmly said to the outside world that Rodman had trained himself and was an excellent teacher on his rebounding side. There is nothing wrong with this, and Tang Qian is not lying.
It may seem like rebounding is only a little bit better than last year, but if you consider the Lakers' style of play and the change in tempo, you will know how much Tang Qian's rebounding has improved this season. It's definitely not the point that the numbers embody.
The block list is naturally Tang Qian's world, averaging 7.3 rebounds per game after rounding, a big cut ahead of Whiteside 4.5 times, this kind of block number really looks desperate. Whiteside thought to himself that he was already desperately brushing the data, but it was still so much worse, this Eastern center was really a monster. With him, will he have a chance to get involved with the cap king in the future?
It's hard!
In this way, Tang Qian is equivalent to monopolizing the honor of the block king and rebounding king again this season, which is also the honor of the fifth block king and the fourth rebounding king in his own career. And experts predict that if there is no big injury in the future, it is very likely that the Lakers No. 29 will continue to monopolize the honor of the king of the two positions in two or three years, which is really desperate. The rebounding masters and block masters born in this era are equivalent to being dominated by yellow forever, in addition to competing for second, they are still second, and they can't touch the shadow of first.
So in this series, a fool thinks that the Thunder can defend No. 29. Their defense, which hasn't been great this season, has been great. The average points conceded per game is as high as 103 points, but their offensive firepower is fierce, with an average of 110 points per game, the second place in the league, which will seem so strong. Defensively, they can be average. The main thing is to win the game with firepower.
The Thunder's tactical points for tonight are laid out as follows:
First of all: reduce turnovers, the Thunder's turnover statistics this season are much higher than their opponents, averaging 3 more per game. It's scary. In the regular season, we lost about seven or eight more games because of that mistake. The Lakers are masters of this, averaging less than 12 turnovers per game. When playing against himself, he made fewer mistakes, and after 4 games in the regular season, the average turnover data on his side exceeded 18, and once exceeded 25. The opponent had the most 16 times and the lowest was only 8. This point must be strengthened and heeded.
Two: We must be more decisive. The opponent's defense is fast, historical level. Caught in positional warfare, it can be extremely difficult. We're not good at positional warfare either, so we try to reduce positional patterns and increase decisiveness. Staying in possession for long periods of time can allow opponents to attack and put our ball carriers in the loop. They must pay attention to their defensive changes, which the Warriors have suffered a lot. This is a pre-war deployment based on the input of the Thunder's video analysts.
Three: We still have an advantage on the outside, with obvious advantages in singles, and the opponent's outside attack point is not conspicuous except for Butler, so we can make more use of our seventh and eleventh sets of offensive tactics to fight around the deformation.
Defensive Points:
One: The frequency of the opponent's defensive counterattack is not high, you can increase the scramble for rebounding in the front court, and you don't need to be in a hurry to retreat and face some fast-paced teams.
Two: Try to force them to increase the score in the outside area, and if the three-point shot is not open, choose to shrink the inside.
Three: It is very important to do a good job of protecting the paint area, whether it is defensive scoring or defensive rebounding, we must concentrate on it, the opponent is very strong inside, which will cause great pressure on our restricted area. The success or failure of the defensive interior will determine the success or failure of our entire series.
Billy. Donovan continued to add on the whiteboard with a tactical pen:
Substitution time should be used well, and this aspect will be relatively weak.
If they take more flank attacks, Serji needs to take on more loitering and assist defense tasks, and a slight delay is necessary.
The Lakers like to play aerial routines, paying attention to top people and card positions.
The Lakers are accustomed to tactical targeting, watching video videos, there are probably so few, try to write them down, see that you should pay attention to destruction and interference, now play the video, pay attention to watching......
The NBA playoffs are played in a different way than the regular season, and they are infinitely more targeted, and the regular season can't be arranged in such detail, but the playoffs must. It's the details that make or break the difference. It's a famous quote in the NBA playoffs.
Go to the Lakers' locker room, Larry. Brown was also giving explanations and preparing for the game.
Offensive Points:
One: Enhance the offensive ratio of the position, the opponent's No. 5 position is the weakness, we are the absolute strength. Play more inside tactical routines. Strengthen the pull and movement of the outside line, and do not let the opponent's No. 1, 2, and 3 positions enter to interfere with the break.
Two: The Thunder team has a strong sense of rhythm, so don't let them play rhythm, be sure to slow down and press slowly, the data proves that when they play slow-paced basketball, their shooting rate will decrease, their mistakes will increase, and their cooperation with each other will fail. This must be put to good use. Unless we have a particularly good chance, we play with a lot of positional battles and attacking rhythms.
Three: play more inside lines. Although they have Ibaka to help defend on the inside, the impact of the fourth and fifth positions on our side is obviously stronger and more dominant. The number five position can play more singles, and the opposite number five position lacks the ability to defend our number five. Secondly, it is necessary to reduce the cut-off on the outside, which will only increase the chance for the opponent to play a quick transition.
Defensive Points:
One: Prevent the opponent's flank attack, which is the area with the highest success rate for the Thunder.
Two: Cut off their overall tie, the Thunder's overall tie is not strong, and their individual qualities outweigh their tactical qualities.
Three: Chase Kante. This man is the worst defensive presence in the league's No. 5 position, and he must be resolute. Can't miss it.
Additional Points:
Singles defense must be done well, and the Thunder will be at the top of the league in this regard. The Westbrook + Durant combination has extremely strong firepower in singles.
Reducing the number of times the number of players go out and increasing the number of transitions between the number five positions to maintain our maximum defensive advantage.
Blocking and dismantling is more than playing, the opponent's defensive blocking and dismantling skills are very poor, if the state is not good, it can become the first attack element to execute.
Video clips of the opponent's main offensive and defensive tactical routines, watch now.
Larry. Brown is a master tactician, and his pre-game preparation for the playoffs is much more detailed than D'Antoni's predecessors. The coach of the Thunder team on the opposite side is also a college coach, so he is also very literate in this regard. And it's also a real preparation for the playoffs. It's a lot more complicated and elaborate than you think. This is also why the NBA's excitement and level of competition are some of the elements that are absolutely number one in the world basketball world.
The players alone are not good enough to make this advantage so great.
In contrast, China's tactical level still needs to be developed and improved, and Tang Qian feels this point.
After finishing the pre-game preparation for the series, Larry . Brown looked at all the players and said, "70 wins don't work at all, that's just a regular season number." Now that the regular season is over, the real game is about to begin. Remember, from now on, the real NBA. Who played well and who played poorly, it will soon be clear at a glance. ”
"Against the Thunder, I don't have high demands, just a 4-1 gentleman's sweep. Hopefully you guys can make it big. Can't do it...... Do it too. "Larry. "Because you're the team that's going to be at the top of the West this year," Brown said. So you can't get into big trouble in the first round. ”
"I even hope to ...... Throughout the Western Series, we had no trouble. ”
"As for why I didn't say the East? Very simple. "Larry. Brown said with a natural expression: "Because there is not a single real strong team in the East." There is no such thing as a team that can be compared to us. We're just going to kill out of the West End, so Larry. The O'Brien Cup must be in the bag of our Los Angeles Lakers! ”
So everyone remembers! In the west, we must take it seriously with all our might! ”
"Our opponents are only the western teams, and the eastern side doesn't have to think about it now."
"Once you've entered the finals, I'll make you the king of the world!"
"Alright, let's get started." Larry. Brown patted Tang Qian, who nodded, and then stretched out a hand, causing all the Lakers players to gather and said:
"When is it ??? now?"
"!! at the time of the game"
"Where ??? now"
"Where the game !!"
"Los Angeles ......"
“GOGOGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”
"Play !!!!!!!!!!"
The locker room door opened, and all the Purple and Gold got up and entered the players' tunnel.
