Chapter 156: Smash's Big Debut (Part II)
"You didn't change the lineup?" Ci Shiping looked at the other side and said with some surprise.
"It's confidence in James' ability to control." Paul. Gasol said that his mind was obviously much better than that of Ci Shiping.
"Hmph, do you really think you can play with us with a bunch of substitutes? Damn James, damn Eric, damn Miami! ”
"Okay, what people want to do is their own business, we just need to do a good job of offense and defense, and we don't need to think about anything else." Typical Kobe Bryant-style answers, but apparently, he was a little annoyed by his opponent's attitude.
are all leading by 5 points, and let James take a group of benches to face the game? What a Miami Heat!
The battle intent in Kobe's eyes was even stronger.
"What? Did you give up singleing me? "See Udonis. Haslem didn't take the initiative to ask for the ball again, and Tang Qian said trash talk.
"Less, you Asian." Udonis. After Haslem threw off a sentence, he ran out to respond, because he was not the core of the Heat team, so it was not his turn to "fight balloons" or something. The task assigned to him by the head coach is to grab rebounds and pass the strategy, if he goes to fight with Tang Qian again, without saying a word, the next dead-ball round, Eric. Spoelstra will definitely replace him decisively and give him a scolding at the same time.
That's a little sane, Udunis. Haslem still has it, so even if he is unhappy with Tang Qian, he must endure it for the time being, so as not to lose the opportunity to continue to "brush data" on the field due to small losses.
The person who defended James was still Ci Shiping, but this time. James opted for speed to win. Don't give Ci Shiping a chance to entangle at all. One lunge rushed into the Lakers' three-point line.
"Supplemental defense, shrinkage supplemental defense!"
Face LeBron. James, a heavy "biological weapon", didn't need Ci Shiping to shout at all, and the Lakers' interior line immediately shrank. But LeBron. That's what James wants, because he's and Kobe. Bryant is different, assisting and passing, is his first choice. So the result. It goes without saying that because of the Lakers' excessive contraction, which led to Sean near the bottom corner. Battier was vacated. After receiving a pass from James, Battier immediately shot, and Battier's open three-point shots have always been accurate, and he even scored a three-point shooting percentage of 40+ clubs at the highest point of his career. That's definitely a strong score, and a 40%+ three-point shooting percentage this season means you can be a reliable three-point option for a team, which is definitely an excellent means for the average player to realise their tactical value.
The so-called excellent 3D player. He Sean. Battier, definitely number one.
Even this season, the three-point shooting percentage has dropped a bit. Throwing a three-pointer in the bottom corner, it was still unambiguous, and with a "brush", the basketball cut through the Lakers' white net.
61-63, 5 points advantage, in an instant only 2 points remained.
As one of the two teams to make it to the Finals last year, the overall chemistry of the Heat is unquestionable, especially with LeBron Brown. James, the super backcourt engine, will have a chance for any pitcher and 3D player to make a difference.
On the Lakers' side, he passed the ball to Gasol on the inside single, but he couldn't score it, and after James received the rebound in the backcourt, he immediately controlled the ball and rushed to the Lakers' half.
James, who has increased his speed in the backcourt, is extremely terrifying, and his explosive power can be called a prehistoric monster.
In positional warfare, Ci Shiping may still be able to compete with him, but in sports warfare, the two are not at the same level at all, and James's impact is much more terrifying than the former. Breaking through to the Lakers' interior again, will James still choose to pass this time? Gasol and Tang have no bottom in their hearts, after all, they are too poor in the face of a player who is determined to be in the top ten in history.
Jumped.
This was Tang Qian's first close contact with LeBron. James, that supergiant-level aura, instantly suppressed himself, this has nothing to do with courage or anything, it is purely due to the big gap between momentum and hard power.
This man, the No. 6 of the Heat, just brushed himself and Paul like that. Gasol's side, and then ...... Yang violently buckled.
Rumble!!!
The momentum sank, and the painful twisting sound of the basket shocked Tang Qian's heart.
This person...... is the pride of the sky, LeBron, known as the "little emperor". James?
That feeling...... Never.
It really feels like a king is coming.
The eyes are wide-eyed, and the momentum is incomparable.
Is this the first person in the active league...... It's terrifying......
63-63, LeBron. James helped the Heat tie the score with his own hands.
"Hot, don't think about it, that ball just now, even the best defensive player may not be able to intercept it, LeBron. James' tomahawk dunk is not an ordinary means of attack. As if he saw the shock in Tang Qian's heart, Paul. Gasol offered reassurance. Young players are actually easy to leave a shadow in their hearts, such as Howard back then, since he was dunked by Kobe, for a long time, he was shaking in the face of Kobe, and even until the 2009 Finals, he had some Kobe phobia. The gap in career duel data is even more obvious, 27+5+6VS16+12+2.
In order not to plant a shadow in Don's heart, Paul. That's what Gasol said.
The Lakers attacked, and Kobe Bryant broke through the Heat's interior line, causing Sean. Battier was fouled on the defensive and made 2 free throws, 63-65.
James assists Mike. Miller, who hit a 17-foot shot, 65-65, and Miami tied the score again.
"Kobe, the Heat's defense against you is getting tighter and tighter, let's connect the team first and then play alone." The person who gave the opinion was Derek. Fisher, don't look at his career data, but his status in the Lakers team is not low at all, and he directly suggested to Kobe that he has this qualification.
The key is that Kobe Bryant also respects each other more, so after thinking about it slightly, he nodded and said, "Hmm." You have a point. The Heat's defensive focus was too focused on me. It's a good pass assist and a good opportunity for someone else to score. ”
"Then you still continue to run, feint to attack, and attract the opponent's defensive line, which can make our shots less difficult, so as to greatly improve the shooting percentage."
"Okay, that's it." Bryant was paranoid, but he wanted to win. In other words, his biggest paranoia is his paranoia about winning. Therefore, as long as his teammates are reliable, he will not "bomb indiscriminately".
Saying that Kobe Bryant will only shoot and can't pass the ball, that's definitely an impression, except for the first two seasons in the league, the average assists per game are only 1.3 and 2.5, and the average assists per game in almost every season are around 5+, which is for a scoring guard. It's already excellent. To know the great basketball god Michael. Jordan, his career average assists per game is only 5+. So as long as Kobe Bryant wants to pass the ball and stay at the league's top level, it's still not a problem.
Especially the ball with the outside pass inside is his forte.
Lakers Kobe Bryant took the ball, and after attracting two people to defend, he quickly got out of the ball, and the basketball went straight to Paul of the Heat's interior line. In the hands of Gasol. Gasol took the ball and shot, and after a feint to shake off the defender, he shot low and the basketball flew straight to the basket in Miami.
This kind of ball, Gasol can be said to be nine out of ten, generally speaking, as long as he shoots, then he will score, unless ......
Syllable~
A member of the Heat team rushed in, kicked the ground with both feet, stretched out his long arms, and actually grabbed the moment Gasol made a shot, and pressed the latter's shot on the rebound!
Who is this person? Naturally, it was the Heat's No. 6, the "little emperor", LeBron. James.
James' defensive block can be called a must for NBA small forwards, because he has good bounces and long arms, so it is not unusual for him to block the inside of the center. Especially when he and Wade stand on the court together, the blocking ability of the two can be called terrifying, from the outside to the inside, there are almost no people they can't block, which is very similar to Michael back then. Jordan and Scottie. Pippen. After covering Gasol's shot, James quickly dribbled forward, this time it was Kobe Bryant who blocked him close in front of him, but James did not force himself to attack, kicked on the footboard, a jump pass, and the basketball flew straight to the heart of the Lakers. Miller. Seeing that the basket seemed to be empty, Mike. Miller's hands itched, and he jumped up and smashed straight at the Lakers' basket. After all, it is very rare for a pitcher-type player to bombard the basket. Miller couldn't help himself a little and prepared to perform a violent dunk with one hand.
However, at this moment, a yellow palm suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Miller was startled, and when he came back to his senses, the basketball in his hand had long since disappeared.
Capped???
How is that possible???
I just saw that the Lakers' basket is empty??? Why did anyone suddenly show up???
"Derek, fast attack!"
Tang Qian passed the basketball in his hand to Derek. Fisher, the whole person immediately rushed forward, Fisher understood, and did not take the initiative to impact the basket, but stopped the ball outside the three-point line of the Heat, and then threw the basketball in his hand high.
What is this doing???
For whom did you pass the ball???
Obviously, there are no Lakers players on the inside line of the Heat???
When the basketball crossed a beautiful arc in the air, a pair of big hands stretched out in the air and held the basketball firmly when it was about to fall. Then, without pause, with the momentum and inertia of running and bouncing, it slammed directly into Miami's basket.
Rumble!
Heat's backup center Dexter. Before Pittman could react, he felt a huge force and suddenly overturned himself, and there was no room for bargaining at all.
The referee blows the whistle, the goal counts as a score, and a penalty is added.
At this moment, in the ESPN live room, Isaiah. Thomas was smiling and saying, "Jeff, how's it going?" Isn't it worthy of the nickname I gave him? ”
"I'll look at the data." Jeff. Van Gundy looked at the computer in front of him and said, "This is his fourth block, right?" The defensive ability of this Chinese is very good! It's not the same as Yao Ke! ”
"Of course!" Isaiah. Thomas said: "He's so athletic that Yao is so good! Although his height is not as exaggerated as the latter, his explosiveness and agility are not possessed by the latter! I'm bullish on him to replace Troy for the Lakers. Murphy, who became the team's No. 1 inside substitute. ”
"Well, with these few balls, I also agree, although the offensive ability is not good, but this defensive hand alone is enough to gain a foothold in the fixed rotation." Jeff. Van Gundy said: "He can do the role of Deacon Bey on the Rockets with the Lakers and help Andrew . Bynum has a longer average rest per game. ”
"That's what I thought too." Isaiah. Thomas said: "As long as he puts a few more hats on the rotation, he's a far better role than a half-scrapped Troy. Murphy is strong. The defensive work on the inside is one of the shortcomings of the Lakers' starting twin towers, and if they have a hot to help them share the defensive pressure, then the twin towers can get more energy on the offensive end, so that against any team in the league, the Lakers can be regarded as having their second strongest point. ”
"ha~ You actually look at the Lakers' twin towers like this, aren't you afraid that you will be wrong? You must know that this year's Bynum was selected into the starting lineup of the Western All-Stars, and the level of strength is at his peak! With Paul, who is 18+10 years old. Gasol, can this group of interior partners only be counted as an offensive powerhouse? "Rachel. Nick Dow.
"Of course." Isaiah. Thomas said: "If you look carefully, the Lakers' twin towers, in fact, are not very compatible. Before Bynum grew up, the inside line was actually the main town of Gasol. And now, on the contrary, the role of the main town of the inner line has become Andrew. When Bynum, Gasol and him came on at the same time, the offensive distance became more and more skewed to the outside, which is enough to show that the compatibility between the two is not as good as everyone thinks. Coupled with the defensive ability of the two of them, I personally don't feel outstanding, two 7-foot big men guarding the basket together, and they don't even have an average block of 2.0 per game, which is far from the Spurs twin towers and Rockets twin towers back then. And didn't you all find out? Neither of them is actually an offensive and defensive interior player, which means that once too much energy is invested in the offensive side, then the defensive side will inevitably be less effective, so I have always said that they can only be regarded as a strong point of the Lakers team together. Because there are too many factors that limit and constrain the state. ”
"Then with the hot, can we solve their compatibility problem?" Rachel Dao.
"I can't say that it can be completely solved, at least it will play an enhancing role, you can look at Gasol's average data per game when he is on the court at the same time, scoring statistics, scoring efficiency, all of which can be called an all-round increase, so I said that his value is far greater than that of Troy. Murphy's value. Now it's up to this Oriental kid to see if he can maintain stability and maintain his condition. "Isaiah. Thomas explained. (To be continued.) )
