Chapter 149: The Great War "Hai Ye" (I)
The Sacramento Kings joined the NBA very early, but except for its predecessor, the Rochester Royals, who won an NBA championship, there has been no breakthrough in 60 years. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt the beginning of the 21st century, the Kings in their heyday had a chance to win the O'Brien Cup, but unfortunately they were unlucky and met the strongest inside and outside combination in history, the O.K. combination, and since then, the Kings' results have been lukewarm. However, in recent years, the Kings have seen a resurgence trend. Evans plus DeMarcus. Cousins, the young inside-outside duo, began to shine in Sacramento. The former, in particular, showed a strong momentum almost as soon as he joined the league, and was able to hit 20+5+5 All-Star level data in the first year, which can be called the "new king" of Sacramento.
But Tang Qian understands that this guy is the type of player who is "rookie is the peak".
What does it mean to be "rookie is the pinnacle"? There are two explanations for this, one is positive and the other is depreciative. Unfortunately for Evans, it was the latter. After hitting the perfect data of 20+5+5 rookies in the first year, his competitive state can be said to have been declining, and last season it has dropped to an average of 17+4+5 per game, what about this season? Worse! Up to now, the average per game can only contribute 16+4+4, and this slow degrading performance has scared the top management of the Kings. I heard rumors that the general manager of the team has already begun to secretly plan, and this "new king" may soon be about to "abdicate and make way for Xian".
Some people complain about him, but injuries and positioning are originally problems that professional players have throughout their careers, and if they are not handled well, they can't blame others but themselves. And the "new king" that the team's top management is ready to praise is DeMarcus, who entered the league a year later. Cousins. It should be mentioned here that compared to the "rookie is the peak" Terrick. Evans, DeMarcos. Cousins averaged 14.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.4 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game in his first year, and his stats changed dramatically in his second year. Hit until now. Cousins averaged 18+11 per game, including 1.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.2 blocks, which is a good embryo for a future star center. The most terrifying thing is that he completes this step of ascension. With only 2 minutes per game played, from 28.5 to 30.5, it's no wonder that the Kings hierarchy is determined to replace the "King" again. It's definitely a good move. Because as far as Tang Qian's memory goes, in the end, he will grow into a super inside line in the league, with a level of 25+12, no problem.
However, Cousins is still only a second-year student, and his strength is acceptable, as for what superstar title, it is not his turn yet, and he doesn't dare to think about it.
In the first quarter of the game, the Lakers played an offensive climax, led by Kobe. 31-26, leading the Kings by 5 points. Bryant scored 13 points and shot 5-of-8 from the field. In the second quarter of the game, Kings veteran Francisco . Garcia made 4 of 4 shots, plus 2 free throws, scored 11 points alone, and led the Kings to a big comeback, but fortunately, the Lakers blossomed more in this quarter. With 34-32, he suppressed the opponent's wave of points. With a total score of 65-58 in the first half, the Lakers led by seven points heading into the second half.
……
"Mr. Yangyi, what do you think of the first half of the two teams?" Meteor Shower asked.
"The Lakers are playing normally. Bryant scored 20 points, Bynum 11 and Gasol 10, and as usual, the three accounted for more than half of the Lakers' points. The Kings are a bit quirky. After Yang Yi finished speaking, he deliberately stopped.
Meteor showers immediately understand it. Without hesitation, he said, "I don't know what Mr. Yangyi means?" ”
"You see, the two cores of the Kings team only scored 18 points combined, but it was Marcus. Thornton and Garcia scored 12 points on their own and 11 points on their own, which is a very abnormal thing. Yang Yi said: "If these two play normally, the Kings will lag behind the Lakers, and it will not be a single digit for a long time." ”
"So, you mean, they're all going above and beyond?"
"Yes, the reason why I say that it is extraordinary is that it is an unstable state that is difficult to continue, so in the second half, if Tyrek and Cousins don't recover one, then this game, I think it's hard to win. Marcus. Thornton is fine, after all, he has been in good form and young this season, but Francisco. Garcia is hard to say, he is only averaging 4.8 points per game this season, shooting 37.6% from the field, and we really can't expect more from him. ”
"What about Tang Qian? Do you have any expectations for him? ”
"Expectation? Let's talk about it first. Yang Yi said.
……
In the third quarter, it was still Kobe Bryant's solo show, with 11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, which directly crushed the Kings' counterattack. The overflowing "prophecy" came true, and in the full 12 minutes, the Kings scored only 16 points as a team, far behind the Lakers by 27 points in the first quarter. Looking at the total shooting data of the two sides, the Kings 29 times, the Lakers 24 times, the former is 5 times more than the latter, but because of the "rush" of the shooting rate, it was suppressed by the Lakers. Thornton and DeMarcus. Cousins was the biggest "sinner", with a 4-of-0 shot and a 9-of-0 shot, which directly lowered the Kings' overall shooting percentage.
The Los Angeles Lakers shot 50 percent to 20.7 percent in the third quarter, 92-74, and the Los Angeles Lakers led by 18 points in the third quarter.
After less than 5 minutes of play in the fourth quarter, the King's "last struggle" was extinguished by Kobe, who scored 7 points in a row, directly making the Kings lose hope of catching up with the score. Seeing this, the head coaches of the two teams began to make substitutions, remove the main force, and put substitutes, because professional games are different from ordinary amateur games, and the NBA schedule is dense and long, so since there is no hope of winning, then protecting the main players has become the common first choice of the team's head coach.
Even in a shortened season, there are 66 games to play, and losing one is not a big deal.
If you don't understand this, you can't be the head coach of an NBA team.
Troy. Murphy was in average form in this game, hitting only one of his five shots, but fortunately he grabbed six rebounds, which is not too embarrassing.
The main team of the Lakers was withdrawn, and the members on the court became, Steve. Blake, Andrew. Goodlock, Tang Qian, Matt. Barnes, and Luke. Walton. On the Kings side, it's Francisco. Garcia, John. Salmons, Gimmer. Fredette, Dante. Green, Chuck. Hayes.
All substitutions against all substitutions.
Looking at the stout figure on the other side. Tang Qianxin said, Master Hai, I'm sorry, I'm going to complete this challenge task in front of you today.
Follow the prompts of the Calendar Board. There are four levels of completion, 1 is Fail to Determine Challenge, 2 is Bronze Completion, 3 is Silver Completion, and 4 is Gold Completion. But what is the specific dividing line, "Different Space" is too lazy to explain to Tang Qian as usual.
It's all up to you.
Tang Qian's main counterpoint is Dante. Green. This is a first-round pick from 2008, 6'11", weighs 226 pounds, and is a black German-born player. Tang Qian has a little impression of this person, why, because in the future, he will set foot in the far east and become a CBA player. Against this center who is not as tall and heavy as himself, Tang Qian is full of confidence, and tonight's "brushing data" plan should be relatively smooth.
It turns out. Tang Qian was right, Dante Green, who averaged 5.4 points and 2.5 rebounds per game this season, was not Tang Qian's opponent at all, so soon, Tang Qian brushed 7 rebounds and 2 points and assists, and there were still nearly 4 minutes left.
But at this moment, the Kings' interior changed defenses and transferred Dante. Green. The man who defended against Tang Qian became Chuck. Hayes.
It seems a bit exaggerated, after all, the difference in height between the two is more than 15 centimeters, but this is commonplace for Hayes. Anyway, most of the interior players on his top defense are a lot taller than him, and over time, he has found some unique defensive experience. Seeing that the inside line had formed a huge dislocation, Blake decisively stuffed the basketball into the hands of Tang Qian.
Then the Lakers scattered in all directions, looking like they wanted to create space for Tang Qian's singles.
Want me to play singles? Or is it a single? Tang Qian's mind was a little dazed. Don't look at Hayes's various statistics are very average, but his single defense is very set, "Warcraft" Howard and "White Warcraft" Griffin have all been deflated in his hands. So if you despise him because his numbers are not high, then the consequences are serious. Tang Qian is very clear about his offensive ability, it is okay to play a single in the NBDL, but it is more difficult to get it in the NBA, let alone facing Hayes, who can be called one of the defensive masters? But the arrow has to be sent, such a good opportunity, I don't know when I will get it next time, so after thinking about it for a while, Tang Qian still decided to try it himself.
Tang Qian tentatively slapped the other party on the back, and the result was amazing.
He couldn't stand up to the other party???
What kind of market is this? It's too secure, isn't it?
Tang Qian currently weighs 245 pounds, what about Hayes? This season's stature is 244 pounds, which is only 1 pound short of Tang Qian. But don't forget, he is much shorter than Tang Qian, so in terms of the strength of his body, he is far superior to Tang Qian, there is no doubt about this. Although Hayes's bench press is only 130 kilograms, which is about 287 pounds, his lower body strength is very perverted, of course, this is also related to his short height, so his center of gravity is low. However, the top defense of the top person is originally a more technical action to test the next plate, so although "Haiye" is short, he is not ambiguous at all, and he does not suffer at all.
This...... This guy is a monster!
For the first time, Tang Qian encountered it for the first time, and he couldn't beat a player less than 2 meters tall with his back.
In an instant, he felt the dilemma of Howard and Griffin, and he couldn't move his back, so he could only rely on technology to overcome it, but his current technology ...... I don't have time to think about it, I can only give it a try!
As if he had already seen Tang Qian's plan, Hayes had a wind under his feet, and he didn't give Tang Qian any room and space to turn around, and this time, the advantage of the short inside line was reflected again. Compared with the seven-foot tall inside, his 6-foot-6-inch interior body is more flexible and agile, coupled with years of rich defensive experience, it is not difficult to defeat Tang Qian.
Seeing that he was about to attack for three seconds, Tang Qian had no choice but to forcibly turn around and make a move, but in this way, he fell into Hayes's arms. Turn around and cut the ball, "Hai Ye" showed a unique secret skill, his move is fast and accurate, cutting and turning technology is not the top inside line, 10 can cut off 6~7, look at the "Warcraft" Howard, is an example, when he met "Hai Ye" wanted to play and turn around, he was frequently cut, and he was extremely depressed.
Syllable~
Tang Qian had just turned around, when he felt that his palm was empty, and when he looked down, the orange basketball had disappeared for some time.
"Oriental, do you want to single me? That's not almost. Hayes walked in front of Tang Qian and said with a slight smile.
PS: I saw someone send a private message asking me, Xiao Zi will say it again here, as a person who has played in the college team (of course, Xiao Zi is just the ultimate water cooler player, and basically has no chance to play), I can tell you very responsibly that bench press is not equal to strength. It was also made clear in the previous article, strength can be quantified, but it cannot be confused, if it is really subdivided, there are many types, and the bench press is just one of the representative data of upper limb strength, and does not represent the overall strength attributes. Of course, if you play basketball, it is good to have a high number of bench presses, but basketball is not weightlifting or fitness, core strength and lower limb strength are also critical, and there is also a sense of force and rhythm, instant explosiveness, etc., in basketball, comprehensive strength is the key, otherwise there are many people in the gym who can surpass them, so they can sweep the court and play professional basketball? You can't generalize, cover the noodles with points!
"Hai Ye"'s specialty is top defense, stalking, and dealing with some interior players whose back skills are not top-notch, which is indeed a miracle. But he also has weaknesses, what they are, everyone will know later. By the way, you can also 2 more today! The time is about 12 o'clock in the evening, Xiaozi thank you for your support!
