Chapter 507: The Defensive Core That Takes Shape
What was that feeling just now?
Why can you make up the defense to Blake. Griffin???
Is it judgment? Is it consciousness? Or is it the timing of the move???
Just when Tang Qian was slightly stunned, the Lakers served on the bottom line, Gasol attacked in the low post, and hit the board under the basket into the net. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But this goal is very dangerous, because Little Jordan's athleticism is too terrible, although it will not be completely corrected until next season, but how can he say that he also slipped down from the "little green house" back then, not to mention anything else, the talent attribute is absolutely explosive. Gasol faced Jordan Jr., attacked on the inside, and struggled a little.
If you look at the head-to-head statistics in recent seasons, sometimes Gasol has played well, and sometimes the statistics are simply miserable, such as in the 10-11 season, when there were 30% shooting, but at the same time there were 88.9% shooting percentages. Last season, for example, there were games on 7-of-17 shooting, and there were nights on 9-of-13 shooting. He even shot 16.7% from the field this season. This kind of ups and downs is an aberration for Gasol on the inside, but for Jordan Jr., it is a defensive highlight.
Because Gasol is a veteran All-Star, what is the NBA's simplest definition of a star? Yahoo Sports has a very classic assertion, not a highlight or a hit, but stability. The more you can stabilize your average per game, the closer you will be to a superstar or even a superstar.
To put it bluntly, it is to ask your lower limit to the number of games, not too much.
The strongest of this is LeBron. James, his consistency is simply ten years like a day.
Of course, Yahoo Sports is just saying its own opinion, in fact, every sports media has its own exclusive opinion, which is also one of the charms of sports. So Gasol has been an all-star at most throughout his life, and he is not even a quasi-superstar. Because he played so badly, it was a bit "much" every season. Again, this "poor play" is relative to the superstar level and supergiant level, if you put him in the ordinary main level or role player level, it will suddenly become outstanding and extraordinary.
Combined with Kobe's two free throws just now, the Lakers' score became 86-101, and the score difference was still 15 points.
But Paul soon lost an open catch, allowing Jordan Jr. to successfully "revenge" Gasol, and the score became 86-103 again.
Although this game is the home court of the Clippers, there are actually many Lakers fans who come to watch the game, because the Staples Center was originally the home court shared by the two teams. Therefore, after seeing this, many Lakers fans couldn't sit still and got up one after another, ready to leave. It's also a unique sight in the NBA game, and you don't want to see the home team lose and be ravaged, so you leave the court early and go home to sleep. But there is a "risk" in doing so, that is, if the home team breaks out and completes a big reversal, you will lose a lot.
Tracy back then. McGrady, in that 35.13 minutes game, there were also a lot of Rockets fans who left early, so ......
The tragedy is great.
"Defend! Defend! Paul! You're seven feet big! Do your job! Defend the Lakers' basket!! "It's the fourth quarter, Mike. D'Antoni's patience is also being cut down rapidly, there is no way, who is called this season's Lakers, who can't afford to lose a game? Seeing Gasol being ravaged by Griffin and Jordan Jr. in turn, he was so angry that he stood on the sidelines and kept shouting.
But Gasol is not the kind of person who becomes more and more agitated, the "Zen master" did not succeed back then, and D'Antoni succeeded if he wanted a few voices, which was a bit too much. In addition, Gasol has low self-confidence this season and is under pressure from the outside world, and when he was shouted by D'Antoni, his face immediately collapsed.
Sure enough, Gasol's hook shot didn't score in the next ball, and he also hit Jordan Jr. in the opposite position.
"Defend! Defend! Do a good job of protecting the basket on the inner line!! Do a good job of protecting the basket on the inner line!! D'Antoni saw the Clippers push again, and immediately reminded loudly, but the head coach can only be anxious sometimes, because whether the players on the court can do a good job often has little to do with the head coach's courtside shouting. Nonsense, if a few shouts from the sidelines can adjust morale and suppress the opponent, then what do you need the players for? Just take the two head coaches on the sidelines and shout at each other!
Paul's eyes are very accurate, he first passed to Griffin, and then Griffin did not stick to the ball, and immediately threw high, it seems that this is a coordination tactic that the Clippers often practice. It's Jordan Jr. again??? Jordan Jr. rushed over from the flank, then leaped high.
This guy really jumps high!!
It is estimated that the absolute height of the hard fight, he can be compared with the peak Howard!!
Visually, he probably has the feeling of being half a head to half a head of a small basket, and his height and arm span are still better than Howard's, but his speed and defensive core talent are not as good as Howard's, but in this era of general "weakness" on the inside, he is enough to do so, and he is quite good. Force. Not to mention that after the Clippers came to Paul, he was instantly like a fish in water, and his scoring ability was greatly improved.
This kind of ball is not to mention the current Spaniards, even Paulo in his prime. Gasol can't block it, unless you compete for block accuracy, but unfortunately the Spaniard's block accuracy is only above the league average, not to a particularly strong level. So this ball...... It is estimated that Gasol wants to be a poster and become a cup!
That's when Matt. Barnes slipped over the baseline again, apparently preparing to empty the right side, a set of regular runs for the Clippers. Tang Qian didn't think much about it, he immediately went over to "touch porcelain", and when he boarded the time, he once again found the inspiration for supplementing and assisting in defense just now.
"DeAndrew's ball jumps so high, this eye has to look at the basket, right? What is the data of his physical test? oh? 26 inches in place? Boosting 30.5 inches? Damn it! He must have released the water during the rookie physical test! Even if his absolute bounce is not as good as the peak Howard, it will not be much worse, and with his combined height and arm span, he is very hopeful to become the new "Warcraft"! Our Clippers have earned !! Another on-site commentator of the Clippers also laughed: "Another "Warcraft"? Our Clippers already have a "White Monster" Griffin, what should another "Monster" be called? "Black Monster"? lol~ Don't go far, Gasol of the Lakers is going to suffer this ball, and he is estimated to be last month's Knight! Wiki entries are estimated to set off another bloody storm! ”
"Strongly agree! DeAndrew, what a big miss in the 2008 draft! Thank you to the scouts and GMs with their fierce eyes! ”
And at this moment, just when Gasol was almost desperate, a teammate wearing a purple and gold team uniform rose from his side, pulled up from the ground, and then opened his left arm and slapped little Jordan in front of him. According to Gasol later wrote in his autobiography, this was one of the most profound moments on the court he had ever seen, and the sudden yellow figure, at that moment, was like the light of God, which made his mood suddenly brighten.
Of course, there are exaggerated elements in the biography writing, but at this moment, Gasol is real, and he feels a great help, a great support.
Little Jordan originally only had the basket left in front of him, but unexpectedly, in the next second, a big yellow palm suddenly rose, like a flying star.
Classic scenes always need strong supporting roles to set off, and Little Jordan is the best supporting role tonight.
Little Jordan is not stupid, seeing that the situation is not good, he immediately mustered up his strength and vigorously slammed the basketball in his hand into the basket in front of him.
It's a pity that it still didn't escape the "clutches" of the Lakers' No. 29, the yellow slap, accurate, slapped on the orange basketball. God testifies that at that moment, the basketball must have been a little deformed. Because it was between two seven-foot men, that kind of impact was enough to make any sphere produce a slight deformation.
Bang!!!
In the end, it was the defense that took advantage, so Jordan Jr., who could have been dunked on the poster, was completely destroyed when he landed.
Instead, he made himself, turned into a poster background.
While~
At that moment, Tang Qian's mind sounded a long-lost "prompt tone".
There are crystal bricks again, and there is a breakthrough.
