Chapter 840: Eyes Are Not Enough
As soon as the Lakers came up, there was a clear change, and Kobe Bryant entered the "All-Out The.Zone" and began to suppress his opponent Leonard offensively and defensively. Although Leonard soon stepped into the "Defensive The.Zone", he was still a step behind the state explosion of the 24th, and his original hard ability was worse than the former. Therefore, Kobe Bryant continued to attack and singles in a row! The attitude of the 24th is already very clear, if the Spurs make up their minds to rely on this third-year defense tonight, then they will also accompany him to the end and make up their minds to blow him up one-on-one! Let him have a psychological shadow from now on!
Popovich didn't make much of a move, because in his opinion, as long as the Spurs were still scoring, it would be enough to offset the destructive power of the No. 24's singles. As for worrying about whether the Spurs No. 2 will be suppressed by consecutive points and have psychological problems, it is also redundant! Because Popovich believes very much that this guy is the personality of "Duncan", and his psychology is extremely strong, even if he is really beaten by Kobe! was won by Kobe Bryant 40+50+! That wouldn't have caused much fluctuation in his psyche either!
He, Kewai. Leonard is such a "man with facial paralysis".
This is 100% OK.
In order to provoke the anger of this young man, Kobe even began to babble trash talk, but ...... No feedback at all. It's like you're talking to a stone. After talking about it for a long time, I feel tired and bored.
Looking at his expression, it was the same as when he first faced Kobe Bryant, his face was expressionless, just serious and meticulous staring.
Such a young man, such a mentality, is really rare! Kobe Bryant had only seen it on Duncan of the Spurs before, but he didn't expect that after so many years, the Spurs would get another one! It's amazing!
Looking at the look in this guy's eyes, it's even like saying:
Why are you trash-talking to me? Why are you squirting me? I don't know what you're talking about! I don't understand human language! I'm a stone! I'm face palsy......
However, it is precisely because of such mentality and emotions that Leonard can stay calm at any time, which is already a "special attribute" and "special talent" gifted by God for a super defensive player. After all, there is still a big difference between you pretending that there are no fluctuations on the surface and there really not much fluctuations in your heart. This Spurs No. 2, a third-grader, he belongs to the latter.
Isn't it a super talent to be able to maintain a calm defensive posture at all times, and what is it?
Kobe Jordan doesn't have this talent attribute.
This is also the reason why Popovich values this third-year player, he believes that the latter has a promising future, and this mental attribute is also extremely consistent with the team culture of the Spurs. Now that the GDP mix is aging, a new core needs to be cultivated. Otherwise, in the future, it is easy to be in a vacuum, and there will be a vacuum period of team power alternation. Other teams can understand it, but Spurs don't have to waste time.
As I said before, fine-tuning, slowly changing the bones, this is Popovich's forte.
The whole league, and only now the Spurs, have this strength and this heritage.
Any of the rest can only be envious, jealous and hateful.
Now Kobe Bryant has done enough on the offensive end, and on the defensive end, he also makes his opponent difficult to move, no matter who he is against the Spurs, he is confident that the "kraft candy" sticks, and then winds wildly to make it collapse and collapse. Because the Spurs' outside line, too, there is no one who can attack one-on-one to penetrate his defense. Whether it is Parker, Ginobili or Leonard, it is the same, in front of the all-round peak No. 24, their offensive ability is a bit "unbreakable".
However, Kobe Bryant has only one person, even if he desperately defends one, so what? What's more, the Spurs don't fight with him at all, that is, blocking and passing the ball offensively, which makes Kobe Bryant powerless. He's an outside player, and there's no way to juggle several people. Jordan came, and so did it.
As long as it is an outside line, there are limitations, which is also the reason why outside players cannot be the core of the defense, but can only be the defensive gate.
Therefore, at this time, I can only pray that the 29th on the inside line will also be powerful. Otherwise, this ball ......
Seeing the Spurs continue to use the passing ball to easily tear apart the Lakers' fragile defense, Don held his breath and began to act as the last line of defense in Los Angeles, guarding the paint basket. The Spurs' offense is too fluid, and it is not unusual for the Lakers to be unable to stop it in terms of their defensive ability and tacit understanding. Isn't it the same for the Miami Heat in the original plane? Easily cleaned up by the Spurs? Isn't James + Wade's outside defense strong? But what's the use of eggs?
still led by an average of more than ten points per game in the finals, and he was comprehensively hanging.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that they don't have a super interior line, Bosh is just a power forward, or a spatial type, and wants him to pick up the defensive burden of the entire Heat team, his shoulders are too small. If the Heat's Bosh is replaced by Garnett, and only Garnett, the peak tail of the Green Army era, is needed, then the team's defense will soar in an instant.
Because, if you want to become a super defensive team, then you generally need the interior as the defensive core.
Unless, like Jordan Pippen, both are super defensive players, that's a bit of a possibility.
It's a pity that James + Wade's defense is far inferior to Jordan + Pippen, so he was easily knocked over, and he didn't want to, and even if he met the peak Bulls in the finals that year, the Spurs were not without the power to fight. After all, they are also recognized as a "historical champion team" by later generations.
And the Lakers are not to mention, Kobe Bryant + Nick. Young + Meeks, no matter how you look at it, is still an outside lineup full of holes in defense.
Kobe Bryant alone can't resist the firepower of the entire outside line.
However, Tang Qian has this opportunity, it depends on whether he can seize it.
The Spurs are still a block-and-tear cut, and then they stirred up the Lakers' defensive line, at this time, if the Spurs themselves are doing their jobs, they must have their own clear and definite defensive tasks and intentions. But unfortunately, the Lakers didn't have it at all, and D'Antoni was never a defensive coach, and even if everyone in the Lakers had the heart to strengthen their defense, it would become a mess because of tacit understanding, mentality, chemistry, lack of practice, etc.
A man's defense can easily be strengthened.
But the defense of a whole team, sorry, is much more difficult to improve than a single team.
It can be said that if the Lakers don't have Tang Qian this season, it is estimated that they will lose points per game to the first place in the league.
Therefore, there is a reason why D'Antoni values Tang Qian so much, the Lakers will completely collapse without him.
Just one Kobe Bryant, who has a super defense, and Gasol, whose defense has gone downhill, can't lead the other three defenses to be Lakers players below the league's average level.
"Hot! Defend this ball! Kobe Bryant turned his head and said that he had no choice but to pray now.
Gasol wanted to defend the ball, but he had just moved past it when the basketball moved away in time, and in a short time, a Spurs player appeared under the Lakers' basket and was ready to make an easy layup.
"You want to be beautiful!" Tang Qian jumped up and sealed it, but Parker closed the ball, and then passed the basketball under his chest with both hands. At this time, the basketball was in Duncan's hands.
Gasol was pulled out a few steps, and it was too late to turn back.
The simplest and most basic truth on the basketball court is that people are never as fast as the ball.
Duncan didn't jump much and shot quickly, which was extremely time-saving and made it difficult for opposing defenders to have a chance to return to block. In other words, if you don't interfere in the first place, basketball will have no chance to interfere.
This is also a manifestation of Duncan's basic skills, the whole process is as if the machine has been calculated, there is no superfluous action, everything is just right. With a "snap", the basketball hit the board into the net.
The ball goes in.
This is the power of this Spurs team, the whole thing is to use the ball to take the initiative to move, no matter how fast you defend, can you be faster than the speed of passing? It sounds simple, but it can be done well in the playoff game in this kind of confrontation intensity and penalty scale, which is unique in the history of the NBA. The Spurs in the 13-14 season were the strongest of them.
Not one of them.
Even the kings of the year had to bow down in front of them.
That's why James could only shake his head and feel desperate after the game, because such an offensive way was basically unstoppable. The level of passing and sharing of the ball with them will always tear and pierce your defence. People are not fast enough to get the ball, and the overall defense line moves, even more.
Kobe Bryant could only slap the basketball hard in annoyance when he saw this, but he also knew that the ball just now couldn't blame anyone on the Lakers' interior defense. can only blame the opponent for everything, it is so smooth and complementary.
The next ball on the 24th didn't go in, and it wasn't a plug-in, and it wasn't using the ability, how could the ball hit? It's normal to fly a few. And that Spurs No. 2, as if he is constantly absorbing the opponent's offensive energy, seems to be slightly adjusted and improved in his defense every few rounds.
It's tiny, but Kobe Bryant still feels it.
This is not an illusion.
It's this year's playoffs, it's the breakthrough season for this third-grader, so ...... Will Popovich keep putting him against himself alone? Damn it!!! Damn old man!! Damn the Spurs!!
After Bryant missed, it was the Spurs' turn to attack, and if this goal was scored again, the score difference would expand to double digits.
This is undoubtedly a powerful blow to the morale of the Lakers' team.
But how do you stop this attack? Who can? How? Mike off the field. D'Antoni had no clue at all.
He suddenly felt that he was still a long way from being a real handsome.
Because he had never seen this kind of poverty and helplessness on the face of the old man on the other side.
Doesn't this just prove that he is inferior to him?
It's not that D'Antoni didn't rack his brains, it's just that his coaching ability and tactical adaptability on the defensive end are this ability, and this is the level. Unless he is suddenly opened up to the "second vein of Ren Du", otherwise, he basically doesn't have to expect too much on the defensive end.
The morale of the Lakers team has also begun to be gradually suppressed by the Spurs, and everyone's actions and mentality are a little stiff and sluggish because of nervousness. This is also an inevitable consequence of the suppression of morale, although there is no specific attribute change in the real world that can be generalized, but as long as you watch the ball a lot, you can definitely observe this change.
The side with high morale, actions, feelings, consciousness, reactions, etc., will be significantly stronger than the side with suppressed morale.
If you play a game, it means that you have high morale and you have been blessed with buff magic, and if you have low morale or are suppressed, you will be treated with negative magic. Hence the difference between downwind and upwind signals.
What to do? Is that the end of it?
Tang Qian's eyes kept watching the Spurs move the ball, and his brain was also running rapidly, but no matter what he thought, it seemed that it was difficult to break this situation. Even if he wants to cast a rocket block, first of all, there is a range limit, and it is impossible for you to fly to the other end of the penalty area to block while you are still at this end of the penalty area, which is something that does not exist in the game.
The Spurs' current transfer of the ball is like a trick, so that Tang Qian can't catch the person and point who made the last shot.
No way! Be calm! You need to defend stronger!
I can't control the outside line, so will the inside line be slaughtered so easily by the opponent?
This is the territory that my Tang Qian is guarding now?
I'm the starting center for the Lakers.
Seeing that the Spurs kept finding empty positions and looking for opportunities by passing the ball, Tang Qian's whole spirit was highly concentrated, and then he began to silently judge in his heart where and where the end point of this attack was. Other teams are easy to say, at least there is a main point of attack, this Spurs team, there is no one at all. Therefore, finding this has become a top priority.
Who? Who is it? Parker? Leonard who moved past? Or is it ......
Damn it!!! Conducts the ball too fast and too often!! I can't tell at all!!
How can I do it??? My eyes can't keep up???
Well??? Eye??? Yes, yes, remember Rodman and Moses. Malone has said that when rebounding has reached a level, the eyes are the second source of reaction! The first reaction is instead to feel intuition and physical instinct!!
I'm now full of nine block crystal tiles and defensive crystal tiles, plus "demigods descend to earth", can't I do it?
I can't do it, and now I have to try!!
Must try!!
Tang Qian suddenly gave up his eyes and kept moving and catching, and began to ...... his whole body
