After beating the Rockets, the Lakers' record continued to improve and is now at 21-6, with a 10-game winning streak.

At the beginning of this season, the debate about Howard and Tang Qian has long since come to an end, and no one cares about it anymore, because the answer is obvious. After this game, Taylor is really a typical American girl type, and she is full of personality and immediately @Kohler. Kardashian said: Sorry kids, obviously this game proved that our tiger is a little bit fiercer.

Give your kitten a good hand.

According to the gossip tabloids, Kardashian smashed a TV set that night, and it is not known whether it is true or false.

This kind of news, the right to be adjusted, just look at Le Yile, Tang Qian didn't take this season's Rocket team to heart.

For him, the teams that can't make the playoffs are not worth paying much attention to, people's energy is limited, and all teams will face it with the same energy. Won, that's normal, the internal atmosphere of Team Rocket, even he feels it obviously. Howard and Harden, the inside-outside combination that was crowned with great expectations back then, must be scattered after this season, and it is impossible to stay at the same time.

But this Tang Qian didn't sympathize at all, because all of Howard's choices were his own choices, and no one forced him. Especially in this time and space, he actually ended up shadowing the Lakers, which made Tang Qian even more unhappy.

Speechlessly, the Thunder team in front of them also won, and the Thunder team defeated the underdog Suns and still maintained a half-win lead. Barely pressed in front of the Lakers. But soon that will change, because the next game is when the two teams face each other. The Thunder won and stayed in third place in the West, and the Lakers won and will take their place.

So the game between the two teams is a "Western Conference Qualifying Match".

No one wants to lose.

The main structure of the Thunder's season is still the "double less" + Ibaka inside, and unlike before, rookie Steven. Adams' growth. He and Ibaka are now the Thunder's main interior patrons. But both are blue-collar in nature. Steven. Adams doesn't talk about it, this season's scoring is still far from the last double, and the blue can't be more blue. Although Ibaka claims to have broken away from the "blue-collar positioning", he also averaged 15+ points per game last season, but that is his peak, and his offensive limit is about 15+. And both seasons have fallen, last season was only 14+, and this season is even worse, only 12+ points per game are averaged. Hit rates and efficiency are also declining. What makes the Thunder's management feel unbearable the most is that the defense, which is known as the foundation of Ibaka, has also been declining in recent years, and he has not averaged 2 blocks per game this season, which is also the first time since his rookie season that Ibaka's block per season has been lower than 2 per game.

But he's now working on a 3-pointer, which is a highlight.

Before the start of this game, Wei Shao joked with Tang Qian, claiming that he wanted to make the Lakers sit fourth in the West. Of course, Tang Qian disagreed, and immediately said that the Thunder team is more suitable for fourth, and the Lakers' goal is to be first. Durant's personal ability has actually gone down this season. After a major injury, his personal abilities were not as good as before. The regular season is not very visible, just a sign, and in the playoffs, it is completely revealed. The ultra-low shooting rate, the super bad three-point shot, the physical problems, etc., all made him completely unbearable. Seeing that the alliance is another super giant embryo, it is about to decline. At this time, Durant ......

Anyway, after the Thunder left Harden, the bench strength has already declined a lot, and it all depends on Durant and Wei Shao.

Coupled with Ibaka's interior protection also declining, the Thunder no longer have the same momentum as in previous years.

The record is still in the top four, but anyone with a discerning eye can see the fatigue of the Thunder.

If they don't make some achievements this season, in the future of the West, so many teams are about to rise, their chances will be even slimmer. This is not alarmist. Excluding the Warriors last season, the Spurs have also completed a core transition this season, and the Lakers look to be on a strong pitch this season. The Thunder are a bit stumbling in this situation.

The management has nothing yet, mainly the players themselves, and some can't bear it.

Since James set an example of "brushing the championship", Durant has also been a little itchy. After all, James was only 25~26 when he went to the Heat at that time, what about him now? It's almost 28, okay? If it doesn't change, in a few years, he will enter the slide channel, so that Durant is likely to become Karl. Marlon's type of tragic character.

No, it's Bicard. Marlon is far from it. Because he still has 2 MVP foundations, he is in this time and space, but he hasn't even won the MVP. If he hadn't won the championship, he would have been even Karl. Malone is not as good, it is greatly inferior.

Because he has not yet defended, he is not a star who combines offense and defense.

In that case, what awaits him is that he will be slowly forgotten by history, and people will only laugh at him for having a star teammate like Westbrook as a long-term companion, and the team is often at the top of the regular season, but he has not won a single championship. What is this kind of person called? Needless to say, a typical "brush". I can't give the team a real victory. In that case, the name Durant will become a complete "joke". At least the chance to be juxtaposed with those star-studded names is completely gone.

Durant's mentality has taken a toll this season, and he's starting to think about things he never thought about before.

He didn't want it to end like this, it would end like this.

The game was held at the home of the Thunder, and the two sides quickly got into the groove, and there was nothing extra polite, just a battle. The Lakers got into a positional rhythm with the Thunder's defense, which has been on the rise this season, although the Thunder have conceded the most points per game since 2011. Last year's one-on-one practice allowed Westbrook to grow a lot, which made the Thunder's firepower look even more exuberant. They are also averaging 110 points per game this season, ranking among the top three in the league.

So the Lakers didn't think about playing with them in the first place.

The pace of the game should be in the middle of the battle from the beginning, and the sooner you can suppress your opponent, the better.

The Lakers played a crossover offense, inside cover, and the front line cut in, but Bosh missed the shot and hit the iron to break the basket. Seriously, Bosh hasn't been doing well in recent times, and there have been more bad games than good ones. Bosh himself was annoyed, but he always felt that he was sometimes a little tired and depressed.

He must have scored this goal, and the chance was indeed okay, but tonight, it was a lot off.

The basketball bounced far and was hit by Russell. Westbrook took it, and after last year's solo training, Wei Shao's ability has risen in an all-round way. After being "joked" by Tang Qian last season, he really brushed up on triple-doubles many times, and rebounding is also a kind of triple-double data.

But to be clear, no matter how you brush, Wei Shao's rebounding ability is also visible to the naked eye, otherwise do you really think you can easily achieve an average of 10+ rebounds per game? Isn't it a dream? Wei Shao's rebounding ability is now the first gear of guards, and even in history, it is one of the few existences.

The Thunder push fast and play fast, and their pace of play is not the same as that of the Warriors, although they are all fast, they are not very controlled, and they often rely on the team's physical fitness and personal ability. The brigade, which was previously called "birds and beasts", is not fake.

Talent really doesn't go without saying about this team.

Wei Shao broke through, Rondo defended, this ball is a real raw outburst, which is what the field often says "naked protrusion". Without the help of any blocking or covering, you can break through with your own breakthrough strength. This kind of ball has often made Rondo difficult to defend in recent years, and Wei Shao has also used this trick to blow up the latter. But this season, Rondo is no longer the Rondo of previous years. Under Brown's re-direction and conditioning, his 29-year-old body burst out with new energy. Coupled with the bonus of the appropriate team system, Wei Shao's breakthrough did not break through the past. Stuck by Rondo. Wei Shao chose a zombie jump shot that went straight up and down, and he didn't jump short, but he was still disturbed by Rondo's super long arm.

The basketball hit the iron, Tang Qian stuck the position steadily and got the rebound.

As long as the people who grabbed rebounds with Tang Qian this season felt its huge oppression, Adams didn't have a chance to get stuck at all, and he was locked behind the Lakers No. 29 in an instant. Seriously, Adams is a very hard player, very motivated to play, and willing to do blue-collar coolie work, but he has no presence from the first rebound in this game.

Sometimes his face is about to be deformed, and he still can't grab half of the position, and the offensive end of the Lakers Butler caused Andre. Roberson was fouled on defense and made 2 of 2 free throws from the free throw line. The Thunder team still plays flying, this is the kind of "flying" that can't control itself, and it is indeed not bad to deal with some teams with a bad defensive system. But why has the Thunder been having a hard time playing the Spurs for so many years? Even if the GDP is old, it is very painful to play, if it weren't for Durant + Wei Shao at the peak, he wouldn't be able to lead the team at all. It's just that their play is still too primitive and too lacking in discipline. Popovich had a very accurate assessment of the Thunder, which was after a playoff game, and the old man said: We didn't play any clever tactics, we just waited for the opponent to make a mistake. We take advantage of these bugs.

Popovich said the true meaning of playing against the Thunder team in one sentence, after all, this team has 2 star players who are at the peak of their careers, and they can help each other create a strong containment force for their teammates, so it is too difficult to completely prevent it, it is better to play steadily, adjust your mentality, and wait for these two people to make mistakes themselves. This is the real "static braking" and "preemptive strike", Popovich domestic people say that Bobo Zhuge is not covered. The vision and approach are the president's mountain level in the coaching world.

And whose set of his inheritance is it? The answer is Larry. Brown. Larry. Brown is a man who is very steady in coaching and rarely makes mistakes. Such "old ghosts" are all goblins. While still in the locker room, Larry. Brown said that the big rhythm tonight is to act safely, just guard against arrogance and rashness. There is no need to rush this ball. But be sure to take advantage of the opponent's key mistakes.

This is a very correct big rhythm control, the Lakers are stable enough this season, and they have the capital to "wait for the rabbit" like this.

The Thunder haven't won much against a strong team this season, and the abuse is nothing for a team aspiring to compete for a championship. Strong confrontation, that's the key. Thunder Durant projection hit, there is no way to do this kind of ball, it is impossible not to let a ball in, Durant is a person with super scorer strength, an Ariza, is still too far behind.

It's not that Ariza can't defend, Ariza is definitely a defensive giant, and he is also famous in the league, but the opponent is too strong.

Defending Durant requires a lot of physical confrontation and team encirclement, which is not easy to do in the first regular season, and the scale is not enough.

On the Lakers' side, Bosh replied, the Thunder chased and played, Westbrook came to a "European step", and Bosh who was assisting in defense went on and played 2+1. The start was intense, and the Thunder's double lack of firepower provided a lot of pressure, putting pressure on their defenders. Larry. Brown made the quick decision to shift his defensive style from man-to-man to free-ball, letting opponents in, but keeping the remaining flanks tight.

Wei Shao broke through this ball, I thought the Lakers would help defend, but unexpectedly, there was no such situation after he came in, and the Lakers players just interfered with his passing route, so that he was properly "wrapped" in a defensive circle. This is also a defensive approach to Larry. Brown is set up specifically for Tang Qian. Based on Tang Qian's super basket protection ability, he made a bold act.

Otherwise, the usual co-defense is mainly based on delay and defensive interference after the help defense comes, which is like the Lakers, which has no intention of delaying and defensive interference at all. It's just to block Wei Shao's passing line. This seems to many people to be more like the amateur style of play of an amateur team, and professional teams rarely make such "mistakes". Not to mention the NBA?

So is it really a "mistake"? Of course not. This is Larry. Brown's new defense tailored for the Lakers this season.

It's called the "Vulnerable Trap," and many Lakers players on the team often refer to it as "Vulnerable Cash."

The meaning is a bit funny, that is, waiting for the other party to "rob the bank".

Because the defense is weak, it looks more like a "thief who opens the door".

When this defensive tactic was first proposed, many Lakers players said it was a bit whimsical, because it was too much of a test for interior players, mainly the 29th's personal basket protection ability. In case of improper operation, it is equivalent to completely exposing Tang Qian to the impact of the other party, and it is easy to fall into the quagmire of fouls. And because there is no delay and interference, they are blocking the passing route, and it is impossible for anyone to go up and help in a short time.

But Larry. Brown still tried his best to practice this new defensive tactic, because the formation of this tactic was not a temporary hot head, but a deliberate defensive change pattern after studying the overall player characteristics of the Lakers team, especially the player characteristics of No. 29. If used well, Larry. Brown assured that this is a nightmare for any player or star in the league who likes to pound the basket.

I still remember the first drill, everyone was taken aback.

The Lakers' No. 29 interior basket protection ability has reached this point, hitting only 3 of 10 cut impacts.

Come on, this is a situation where there is no delay or interference at all, and the player can accelerate the impact with all his might.

Everyone thought it was luck, but when they came back the second time, the result was even more amazing, hitting only 2 goals in 10 times.

This, make no mistake, this is a single impact, Butler is also an average scorer of 20+ per game this season, isn't this shooting rate too miserable? You know, under normal circumstances, his finishing percentage under the basket this season is as high as 6 to 7. He also had a shooting percentage of almost 6 out of 4 in his career. This 20%. It dropped 4% at once, or is it all interference-free impact......

At this point, everyone really understands the terrible blocking talent of the Lakers' No. 29.

Tang Qian's strength and tonnage have improved again this season, and his blocking ability has also continued to increase, although they are all 9 crystal bricks, they are obviously better than before. This means that the body is stronger, and the effect is more thorough.

This tactic has also been practiced many times later, and it will take more than half a month, during which there have even been many complete zeros. That is, none of the 10 balls could be hit. This made many Lakers players feel terrifying.

Especially Butler, who has the most impacts, said that even if he is not with the Lakers in the future, he will avoid a head-on conflict with Tang Qian under the basket. Because, it's so hurtful.

It hurts my self-esteem so much. It makes him feel like he's been beaten back to his middle school days.

Now, for the first time this season, this defensive tactic has come into play. Larry. Brown thinks the drill is enough, and he needs to put it into the actual combat and watch it again. Westbrook came in and found that none of the Lakers players came to delay and fight, which made him a little surprised, because some players clearly had the opportunity to come over to delay, but they didn't come.

In that case, let me hit the basket with full acceleration, then you're welcome.

Wei Shao didn't think much about it, and rushed up to the Lakers' basket.

He has always been straight, straight up and down, but because his physical fitness is too strong, most people in the league can't do anything about him.

This ball Wei Shao was already secure, and it was only half a second before he made a move, and he was pressed in the air by a yellow palm.

Nice cap!
