Chapter 795 - You The.Zone? Sorry, I'm a supergod.
Howard should certainly be angry, but it's not just from Tang Qian.
The main reason is that he vaguely feels that his own era has quietly come to an end.
But...... But how old is he? He's from December '85, basically '86! Counting the 13-14 season, he is only about 28! It stands to reason that this should be the peak and most powerful period of a basketball player. But what about reality? Voted for the best defensive player of the season, he doesn't even have a shadow of the top eight! Maybe even fall out of the best defensive team in a row!
Best Team Mock Voting? Howard is only between 2~3 formations!
The All-Star is a substitute for the second year in a row.
The rebounding king has no chance, and the same is true for the blocking king, so the only thing Howard can get this season is a best 2 or 3 team, and a painless All-Star. At his level, the number of All-Stars is no longer valuable, and no matter how much he takes, it is only better than nothing. There will be no more bonuses to his historical status.
So the first center? It's rare for ESPN to say that publicly.
The so-called "first quartile" and "first center" of the Rockets have become jokes and jokes on the Internet, and no one really takes him seriously. This was the case in Orlando a few years ago, but it didn't happen at all. At that time, he was the darling, and now, he is an outcast, he is Huo Zhongzhong, and even some newcomers who have just joined the alliance dare to speak disrespectfully to him.
What about Team Rocket? said that the double core, after coming, he found out that he was the role of "second master".
There's not much real say in the team.
James. Harden, at present, is a much more "lonely" No. 2 position than Kobe. He doesn't just want to shoot, he wants the ball, he also has to learn James's all-encompassing style of play, and all offenses must go through his hands as much as possible. This is a disaster for Howard, and the funny thing is that Warcraft still thinks that he can get more shots and opportunities when he comes to Houston, but in fact? Not even bullshit! Now that the season is almost over, how many shots does he only average per game? Probably in the early 11th. How much higher than last season with the Lakers? It is only about 0.5~0.6 times higher. This also calculates that the average free throws per game are about 0.5 fewer than those made during the Lakers period, so the actual shots are not much different from those of the Lakers.
This situation, of course, is not what Howard really wants, the statistics are not eye-catching enough, the problem of low post back is completely exposed, and he estimates that ESPN will not dare to select him as the first center next season.
Do you think I'm going to lose to you like this???
Howard angrily blocked Gasol on the defensive end, then forced a low post on the offensive end, and then dunked hard! Tang Qian didn't even have time to stop it!
"See? Don't think you're going to win!! Howard completed a dragon on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends and couldn't help but shout. Because shots like this are gradually disappearing in his game. After Howard lost his terrifying historical explosiveness due to injury, he couldn't easily cut 20+ on the offensive end as before.
averaged 20+ points per game, and slowly became a moat, blocking Howard's head.
After Tang Qian looked at him for a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "Let's just say that why is it so powerful all of a sudden, it turns out that you have entered the 'The.Zone'." But you still can't handle me in this game. No. It should be said. โ
"From this season onwards, you're never going to be able to handle me again."
"Remember, Mr. Warcraft." Tang Qian said in a flat and determined tone: "Defeating you is the tradition of our Eastern Center. โ
"No matter what you do, when you compare with me, you just can't!"
This, this damn Oriental!!!!!!!!!
Drag your mother!!!!!!!!!!
I'm going to you blind guy tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
However, Howard said these words in his heart, after so many things, he didn't dare to talk to Tang Qian head-on. This, in fact, is also a kind of cowardice in the heart. Alone in one's own spiritual world, there is no help.
It doesn't have any effect on the real world.
"Hot, that monster has exploded, do you want to ...... it with Paul" Steve. Before Nash finished speaking, Tang Qian shook his head and refused: "No, Steve, this guy is mine, he is my counterpart, I will take care of everything." Nash looked at the former, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "Okay~ whatever you want, but if you can't handle it......"
"I will, don't worry." After Tang Qian finished speaking, he ran to the front.
"This guy is really different from before, has his aura and dignity risen to this level?" Nash looked at the former's back and said, "Perhaps, he will become the real league's No. 1 center." โ
Nash passed, threaded the needle, and the Lakers as a whole advanced around him offensively, brushing ~, and Meeks hit a three-point shot.
"Pass beautifully! Steve! Nice๏ผ๏ผ๏ผ Meeks gave Nash a thumbs up after the goal.
Now, Nash's style of play is easy to make team players feel good, especially this kind of person who has a "halo bonus" with Nash, and he feels extremely friendly. Rockets Howard asked for the ball in the low post, but Harden ignored him, dribbled himself, and threw a three-pointer at the top arc. Brush~, actually hit the basket too.
"Bryant, your guys, ok?" Nash asked nonchalantly as he walked past Bryant.
"Absolutely." Bryant was slightly stimulated by Nash's words, and then there was obviously a change in temperament on his body. In terms of the agitation method, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, in terms of eating this kind of "energy pack", Kobe Bryant is at the same level as Jordan. He was easily provoked, but perhaps deliberately too.
Back then, the Bulls liked to use this strategy against Jordan, and whenever Jordan didn't perform well, Jackson would "cordially ask" in front of all the players on the bench: "Michael, you're not in good shape tonight, do you want to go down and rest first?" โ
And then a lot of times, Jordan adjusts and breaks out again.
It's not that he can't hear that this is a radical, even if he can't hear that Jackson is playing too much, he will always feel it. It's just that he is willing to accept this kind of stimulation, this kind of challenge. Ultimately...... Finish it.
Kobe Bryant began to work hard to pinch the opponent seriously, and he was dead pinched at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, without mercy.
On the offensive end, he hit the latter with his back, the standard textbook back-to-back shot, and the defensive end was also tightly attached, relying on his defensive experience and super foot adjustment ability, the kraft candy shrouded, Harden stumbled several times near the three-point line, and almost lost the ball halfway. He wanted to try to use the rhythm to force Kobe Bryant, but this was a dream, because No. 24 himself was a master of rhythm breakthrough, and the realm was much higher than Harden, so no matter how the former used the rhythm, he was unmoved. Seeing that the rhythm breakthrough didn't work, Harden wanted to rely on his own strength and the hard arc of the body, which after 2010, Kobe Bryant gradually lost weight, which is a good stupid way. Can...... This season, it didn't work at all. No. 24 is now a little heavier than him, 230+ pounds, which is definitely a Tyrannosaurus rex-level strength and stature in the No. 2 position.
At the same time, it also has the explosiveness and speed of the peak period.
If this Harden passes abruptly, Kobe's first 9 defenses will be in vain. It's an insult to his own super-peak final season.
"Harden wants to break through Kobe? No, no, no, it's too reluctant, his hard protrusion ability is top-notch, but it's not top-notch. Kobe Bryant's defensive ability this season reminds me of the three-game championship era, no, it's stronger than the three-game championship era! "Bill. After Mike Donald finished talking about Stu next to him. Lanterz also said: "James. Harden's breakthrough is a rhythmic breakthrough style, with a small tank of strength and body to enter. This trick usually works, after all, there are not many strongmen in the position of defense now, so Harden's breakthrough generally works well. But it's a pity that tonight's Black Mamba just restrained him, whether it is rhythm control or physical strength, it seems to have a great advantage, so that Harden can only have a ghost if he can succeed hard. โ
"Optimistically, one out of ten times is considered a good success."
There is no problem with their commentary, Harden's is indeed impossible to rely on his personal ability to force the Lakers No. 24, the peak Kobe Bryant Flash is difficult to tear one-on-one, what about the super peak Kobe? Just a James who has just been the boss for the second year. Harden? Do you look up to Harden too much, or do you look down on Kobe Bryant this season?
In the end, Harden could only barely make a shot, and it looked like he wanted to make a defensive foul by the way, but he was also a star, and his coffee position was obviously not as good as the Lakers' No. 24. Therefore, the referee did not give this penalty very tacitly. And to be honest, this is the end of Harden's habitual "touching porcelain", everyone has some unspeakable disgust for his set, obviously it may end up being a little foul and a little aggressive, and that has become Harden's "deliberately touching porcelain".
Kobe Bryant is a foul in the strict sense, but Harden has done his own thing, and this style of play, which has used "loopholes in the rules" all season, has slowly attracted the collective attention of the league's referees. If it weren't for the fact that there are more and more "body hair whistles" now, Harden's "touching porcelain" method is completely undesirable, and before the 21st century, few referees would pay attention to him.
So you can see that in the league where the big four and Jordan played, this was not the case at all, and their technical moves were not to make fouls for the sake of making fouls. But Harden will one day be "countercalculated" by the league, which is not mentioned for the time being.
"Foul !! Umpire!!! He fouled!! Harden was a little depressed, because even if he didn't deliberately "touch porcelain" with the ball just now, Kobe Bryant was a foul. However, just because he deliberately "touched the porcelain", the whistle that should have been there was canceled instead. This is the "star whistle" for Kobe Bryant and the "home whistle" for the Lakers, and Harden can only bow his head and admit it.
Otherwise, if you keep yelling, you will definitely be punished with a technical foul.
Damn it! Harden could only complain secretly and turn back to defense.
Nash passes Kobe Bryant, Kobe breaks through, breaks Gasol, Gasol hooks inside, it's beautiful, but this ball is ......
"Warcraft gave Paul a big hot pot! I don't think there is any problem with Paul's timing in this ball, it is completely the former's personal ability that has been crushed! It's a wonderful high-altitude hat!! In the commentary, the Rockets attacked quickly, but they were quickly pressed, because the Lakers' No. 24 once again firmly blocked the Rockets' No. 13, making it difficult for them to advance and retreat.
Harden made a gesture to block and dismantle at the top arc, but Howard only wanted the ball in the low post now, so he ignored it, so only Patrick, who was also on the outside. Beverly came over to cover. But this kind of cover was easily broken through by Kobe, Beverley is only 185CM tall and weighs 185 pounds, and it is not unusual to deal with Kobe Bryant this season, who was easily separated by power and forcibly penetrated in front of him. So Harden shot the ball, and was chased by Kobe Bryant's side to block, and the basketball was picked up by Kobe, and the single man went down quickly, and a tomahawk split dunk to end the round.
"The first quartile from ESPN isn't very good, is it, old man?" Bill. McDonald said.
"Well, it turns out that some things are still good for the old." Stu. Lanterz punned on it very cooperatively.
The Rockets called a timeout, and when they came down, Harden opened his mouth and asked Howard, "Dwight, why didn't you just bring it up to make a wall?" Didn't I give you a tactical gesture? Howard also had a temper in his heart, and said a little impatiently: "I saw it, but I was better and closer to the basket just now, and I think you should pass the ball directly to me." โ
Seeing that the core players had a little contradiction, McHale stepped up at the right time to play the round, but the trend of the game was irrepressible.
At halftime, the Lakers scored 61 points, scoring quite average, Kobe Bryant 16, Gasol 10 points, Meeks 6 points, Tang Qian 8 points, and Nash himself scored 5 points. The rest was given to the substitutes. The overall half-time shooting rate was only 20 of 48, but the three-point shooting rate reached 43.8%, 7 of 16 shooting, plus 14 of 16 free throws, which was the general situation of the Lakers in the first half. What about Team Rocket? It was a lot worse, and only scored 49 points at halftime. In fact, the score is not bad, it is not low, but people are more popular than people, and the Lakers scored 61 points.
Moreover, if it weren't for Harden's 11 consecutive points in the second quarter, including 7 of 8 free throws, the Rockets might have to surrender early.
Howard once again complained that Harden didn't pass the ball to him, and in the second quarter, he thought that Tang Qian's absence was a good opportunity for him to attack the Lakers' interior, and it was completely impossible for a Gasol to block him. However, Harden clearly has some different opinions, and the two men have a split again.
In the third quarter, the two sides once again fielded their main forces, and Howard was about to explode at the beginning and become the leader of the Rockets' offense. It's a pity that his outburst is useless in front of Tang Qian, because I said it before, I don't know why, it seems that there is a connection in the dark, as long as Tang Qian hits Howard, it will be extremely easy to break out, extremely easy to explode. This point perfectly inherits Yao Ming's fine tradition back then, and every Warcraft will explode!
Howard entered "The.Zone" to fight hard, Tang Qian slapped him with a big hot pot, the former didn't believe in evil, and came over again in the next round to find a field, and then ...... Again received a big blood cap!!
"Howard and Hot Fight for Rebounds! Hot got a defensive rebound! โ
"Howard and Hot Fight for Rebounds! Hot got an offensive rebound! โ
"Howard turned around and hooked his hands? Scalding high and jumping high, covering this hook ball! โ
"Howard made a hard attack under the basket, burned without retreating, forced a collision, and a big hat fanned !!"
"Howard ......"
This is the vast majority of the situation in the third quarter where Howard and Tang Qian were opposed, he didn't know how to do it, and was completely contained by the opponent. Moreover, he was also scored several goals by opponents on the defensive end!! How??? Make no mistake??? When will he attack on his own??? When did he make such a decisive and decisive attack under the basket???
Howard's impression of Tang Qian is obviously still stuck in the past, but this has long been outdated.
Tang Qian's progress speed is much stronger than at the beginning of the season.
Especially on the offensive end, he is no longer the "Mr. Zero Threat" who has no offensive threat.
Although he also received 2 blocks from Howard, Tang Qian didn't care about these at all, because he still got points.
And this is all done under the defense of "Warcraft"! That's a success!
Howard was a little exhausted in the third quarter, and the more he played, the more he played, why couldn't he get into "The.Zone" himself? It's also guarded against this??? Why???
Of course, one is that his own offensive ability has greatly degraded from the peak. The threat is not as good as it was during the Orlando period. The second is ......
Tang Qian grabbed a rebound in front of Howard again, then passed the ball out, and said with a smile: "Don't have that expression, Mr. Warcraft, you and I both know that gaze can't kill people, right?" "Bastard!! Why can't I beat you even though I've entered The.Zone? Howard reluctantly roared, he was going to be a little stunned.
โThe.Zone๏ผโ Tang Qianyan turned around and said with a smile: "Because I am super godly." โ
Although it was only a supergod on the defensive end, it also stunned Howard, and he finally knew why he couldn't kill this Oriental man after all the outbreaks tonight. Originally, his defense was so strong, and he ....... super god of D??? This is simply not giving people a way to live! To be precise, don't give him a chance to live!
Again......
Howard yelled in his heart, a little aggrieved:
Why is he "super-god" when he touches me??? This Nima has been "super-god" for the first time??? Is it so easy for the "supergod" to get into??? Is "Super God" Chinese cabbage???
Why is he, like the former No. 11 of the Rockets, so depressing me???
Why???
Why???
In Howard's shout, the Lakers swept 44 points in the third quarter, and finally scored 130 points in the game, and once again won the game with a 30-point advantage. Bryant scored 38 points, Gasol 16, Tang Qian 21, Nash 11, Meeks 12, and Nick. Yang 9 points...... The Rockets were shattered by the Lakers' super-firepower and almost didn't fall apart.
Bryant's 38 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds, and 2 steals suppressed Harden's 25 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds.
Tang Qian's 21 points, 23 rebounds, 9 blocks and 2 assists also suppressed the opponent Howard's 11 points, 5 rebounds and 3 blocks. They have all entered the state of "The.Zone" for a period of time, and only got this pitiful data, Howard has really entered a dead end for Tang Qian. It's hard to get out.
It doesn't matter if he's the league's No. 1 center or the league's bottom-to-bottom center, it's no worse.
Los Angeles Lakers defeated Houston Rockets to win 31 in a row!! The winning streak continues!!
