Paul was a little anxious, and the Lakers made it clear that he would play during this time.

It's okay if he feels good, but Jeremy Lin's defense is just like that, and he can't pose much of a threat to him. But what if he doesn't feel good after breaking through? This is typical tonight, he has a poor long-range shot, he only hits 2 long-range shots after making so many shots, and the rest is based on killing the basket and making free throws.

And under the killing basket, he really learned the power of the Eastern No. 29 in this round of the series, and he doesn't feel that the regular season is not enough, and the intensity of the playoffs is fundamentally different. The more critical the moment, the more difficult it is to play, because the referee is more relaxed about the physical confrontation. In this way, for the party with poor health, it is actually weakened invisibly. However, you are not as physically as good as the other party, which is "deserved" after the professionalization of basketball. After all, other people's bodies have also been trained, even if it is talent, what can you do? The most critical thing is that Paul faintly found that he didn't know how many games he started, and there was always a time when the oriental center faced his team's fixed tactical cooperation. This also gives him a certain amount of invisible pressure.

So, what if you don't fight? Really give the ball to Barnes and Jordan Jr.? Then the Lakers are going to die laughing.

The Lakers just ordered it very clearly, assisting in defending Griffin, Ariza and Redick, and when the scale of confrontation is getting looser and looser, the defensive action can also be bigger than usual, which makes the two of them a little inseparable at once. This is the intention of the Lakers, forcing you Paul not to attack, not to play. If you don't fight, you lose.

Paul and Tang Qian's calculation dispute, the balance also tilted.

However, before the dust settles on the game, he still has a chance to level the situation.

He knew that the further back the clock went, the No. 29's fitness would be problematic, but now he had to make sure the team could hold out until that point, wouldn't he? So, you have to score, you have to play.

Paul looked at Jeremy Lin, who was very tight and focused in front of him, first said "trash talk" to distract him, and then did a continuous crotch dribble, he was superficially nonchalant, but in fact he was looking for Jeremy Lin's defensive center of gravity to move point. Once he finds it, it is the beginning of his breakthrough. 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, finally Paul found it, Jeremy Lin's footstep adjustment gap, he grabbed it accurately, and rushed out to the right in one step.

Jeremy Lin followed suit, wanting to make a little more physical contact, as his body is now worthy of any No. 1 position.

With the strengthening of tonnage, the once "Lin Whirlwind" has become a "Qilin Arm", and the dimension of his arm has long been compared with any outside line. So defensively, he also changed from the initial foot movement to the focus on physical contact. It's a very clever adjustment, but it's in the face of Chris. Paul, it was still a little worse. Paul's power was sufficient to resolve this problem.

A non-ball handler in the process of dribbling a slight push, giving him a clear space to break through.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jeremy Lin increased the squeezing of space, Paul just sneered, and then the non-holding ball, that is, the left hand secretly bent in the process of breaking, and gave Jeremy Lin a blow from the small arm to the tip of the elbow, and then rushed directly through the former's defensive circle. Don't think there's anything wrong with this, playoff matchups, small actions are inevitable, and this is also a kind of court art.

If used well, it can turn the crisis into safety at a critical moment, and even reverse the entire overall situation.

And again, the referee did not blow the whistle, then it was a legitimate action. Unless, unless, it's an obvious "referee in possession of the game", that's pretty much it. It's just that Jeremy Lin himself is still too little playoff experience and eats Paul's way.

Do you still want to compare with me? Practice for a few more years, Lin is crazy.

While secretly taunting Jeremy Lin, Paul suddenly found that there was a person standing on his breakthrough line? This man is ......

Oops, can't stop, this ball......

Paul crashed directly into Tang Qian's body, both of them fell to the ground, and the referee blew the whistle. Gave the Clippers a dribble hit.

This time, the Clippers' home commentator was not happy, and muttered a few times, as if complaining about the unfairness of the referee, and the ball should obviously be a blocking foul by the Lakers. But he only beeped for a few seconds, and then immediately shut up, and the emotions that the fans were about to be stirred up just now stopped. The reason is not difficult to guess, that is, the big screen above his head replayed the penalty, and it can be clearly seen under the big screen in slow motion that Tang Qian stood in a good position first, without any movement, and then Paul dribbled and hit it.

So this ball, unless it is in a reasonable collision zone, is definitely a foul. The attacker fouls.

So everyone obediently kept their mouths shut.

Paul was a little dazed and said, "How could he, how could he be there?"

Could it be that he saw that I was going to take this breakthrough route? No, it won't, right? How is that possible?

This is a breakthrough method and breakthrough route that I have only recently started to use.

Hey, don't really say it, it's because you used it a lot during this time, so you gave Tang Qian to judge it, and it was analyzed in the video of Kobe and Tang Qian. Unexpectedly, I stood up and made a block, and I really judged it right. Very good. Go on, come a few more times, don't believe he's not messing around.

The Lakers missed the offense, and Paul scored a three-pointer in the next shot, which was very difficult and there was no way to score. The Clippers regained the lead and led by one point. However, the situation did not change because of Paul's goal, but it was Paul's last goal in the last few minutes. The back-to-back offensive play gave the Lakers a good opportunity, Ariza first broke through and caused a defensive foul, 2 of 2 free throws, leading by one point, and then Butler scored a 3-pointer, which was also a rare highlight of his night. 4 points. Paul's pass was okay, but in the process of the second setter, Jordan Jr.'s pass was touched by Tang Qian's hand, and the basketball deviated from the original direction. He relied on his body, which was dozens of pounds heavier than Paul, to gain the upper hand in the confrontation, stabilize the center of gravity, and get the floor ball first.

Although his data is still not good tonight, this kind of occasional brilliant performance is not without achievements.

There is no shortage of playing attitudes on the Oriental side, and it is not easy to survive in this league, no matter what outsiders say, they are also the best people in the yellow skin. Tang Qian, naturally, is also one of the "yellow heretics" of this alliance.

But Butler didn't hit the ball, and Barnes's ferocious defense put him under a lot of pressure.

Of course, it could also be that playing some first points in the last game was too easy, so Butler hasn't gotten used to it too much.

"Rebounding! Protect it! Paul shouted loudly on the outside, he is only 183CM, basically in grabbing low-post rebounds is to see the number of people, whether you can get in, it is useless, so at this time, you can only pray and pin your hopes on others. Griffin and Jordan Jr. are indeed in good positions, and both of them are averaging about 13+ rebounds per game in the playoffs this year. The fact that they can get so much together shows how much they are in control of the rebounding playoffs this season. The Spurs were eliminated because they didn't protect their low-post rebounds. This factor is important.

Tang Qian didn't dare to say that he could easily win offensive rebounds alone, after all, offensive rebounds are several times more difficult to grab than defensive rebounds. These two are not weak opponents in this year's playoffs, in short, they are not weak, but they are also strong. The two of them are in the top three in rebounds per game in the playoffs this season, except for Howard, who is better than them, and the rest are inferior to them.

The top three or two rebounds per game in the playoffs are on a team? This is also a relatively rare thing.

Therefore, Tang Qian's rebounding is difficult to grab, and the position is basically sealed by the two of them, and the advantage of defensive rebounding should not be underestimated. They can get their positions in place early and turn around earlier to grab the golden board triangle under the basket. Tang Qian's ball seems to have no chance. The meteor showers of the Celestial Empire Sports Station all said that the Lakers should speed up their defense, so as not to be counterattacked by the Clippers to steal points.

Including D'Antoni, he thinks about it the same way, but as a star, you should do something impressive at the critical moment. This kind of wonderful ball is one of the best ways to increase fans. Besides, this is the playoffs, this is the stage for stars, there is no way to do it if there is no chance, and Tang Qian will certainly not let go of the opportunity.

This ball, it seems that Jordan Jr. and Griffin have done a good job of the strategy of double card position, but they are still seen by the bold Tang Qian, who is a master of art. That is, they don't have enough range for the back slots, which makes them ......

Celestial Empire Sports Station.

"This ball Lakers should be going to retreat...... Well? Tang Qian didn't retreat, he went forward instead, did he want to grab a rebound? Coach Zhang? ”

"Uh, this ball, I think it......" Wei Ping. Tang Dynasty. Bryant was still brewing, and he saw the purple-gold No. 29 and jumped up, yes, he didn't have a position, and he didn't have time to squeeze into it. However, he was the first to jump up on this ball. Jumped earlier than Jordan Jr. and Griffin. Jordan Jr. and Griffin both didn't understand why, and it seemed to them that the ball was a pointless scramble. And you jump so early, can you catch the ball? It can't be good or bad.

This mistake must be taken advantage of, Paul said in his heart, play the Lakers with a defensive counterattack and narrow the score difference.

Unfortunately, his calculation fell through.

Yes, Jordan Jr. and Griffin's idea is not wrong, this kind of ball is in this position so early, it is impossible for Tang Qian to catch this rebound. But...... Who told you he was going to be caught. One of Rodman's stunts, flying rebounds, is the trick Tang Qian is using now. He didn't have a chance to catch the ball, but what if he just touched it and flew the basketball again? Well, that might be a chance.

"Tang Qian jumped up, he flicked the rebound, and the basketball flew into the sky again."

Yes, the meteor shower's explanation is correct, Tang Qian just dialed the ball back into the sky, allowing Jordan Jr. and Griffin to grab a void, and the latter's rebounding rhythm was disrupted by Tang Qian's hand. However, if you want to get this ball, it is not enough. It needs to come again.

Tang Qian, Tang Qian flicked the ball again, and Jordan Jr. and Griffin grabbed an empty space again. Oh my God, what is he doing. ”

The meteor shower is still too short to watch the ball, and the "reasonable old man" reacts instantaneously in his heart, which is the famous stunt of the ...... "flower worm" Rodman, flying point rebound. It is a special rebounding method that is specially used when there is no position or when there are many enemies. Zhang Weiping has been watching the game for a long time, and he stayed in Chicago for the longest time in the United States that year, so he watched the Bulls' game the most with his own eyes. This hand, except for Rodman, few people played it.

At most, it's an occasional flash of inspiration, and it can't be like him, which appears in almost every game.

Zhang Weiping remembers most that once at the home court of the Bulls, Rodman grabbed five people by himself.

Yes, Nima didn't read that right, and I didn't make a mistake, it was just one person who grabbed five, or an offensive rebound, and finally grabbed this ball. That's what Rodman used at that time. Fly the rebound and point the rebound from a bad position to a good position on your side. When he saw this trick at the time, his brain was white for a long time. Because he really didn't expect that someone would be able to grab rebounds like this.

This hand, Chamberlain didn't know how to do it back then. Chamberlain, Russell, they are too physical, the ceiling is too high, and they are naturally invincible in rebounding. What about Rodman? ONLY 201CM TALL, HIS WEIGHT IS ALSO VERY SMALL, AND HE IS ALSO VERY AVERAGE IN THE LEAGUE'S REBOUNDING, HOW DID HE BREAK THE LIMIT, AND MONOPOLIZED THE REBOUNDING KING FOR 7 YEARS WHEN THERE WERE MANY INTERNAL TALENTS IN THE 90S. Desire, hard practice, that's one thing, and the unique tricks of skill also exist. (This one-to-five animated picture Xiaozi is there, if you want to see it, you can join the group to watch it~)

Zhang Weiping wanted to quote this hand to China back then, but found that no one could learn it. In the end, I had no choice but to give up.

Who would have thought that Tang Qian actually used it, and it was still a playoffs.

Tang Qian has used this trick before, but to be honest, it relies on physical talent and ability, but now it is different, after the rebounding ability has reached this level, he feels that he can practice this stunt well. In fact, he hasn't practiced too well recently, and Nima on Rodman's side has been unable to get through on the phone since he was completed with 3 "treatments", and no one answered or turned off the phone for a long time. is completely different from the attitude that was still in the "treatment period" at the beginning, at that time, Tang Qian's call, he dared not answer it? It's good now, this "flower worm" is really unreliable!

Tang Qian complained like this, but he didn't know that if he didn't help Rodman, Rodman wouldn't bother to pay attention to him.

Even if it's an ordinary help, it is estimated that this "flower worm" will not take it to heart. So, he should be content. Look at that "rebounding class" that Rodman opened during the summer vacation? Many people have gone in, claiming that they are "cheating money", and there is nothing substantive to teach at all, and they just make soy sauce every day. From here, it can be seen how lucky Tang Qian is.

Without this guy's pointing, his rebounding would never have improved so quickly.

So this trick, he is learning and understanding by himself, after all, he has now also walked into the field of "God of Rebounding". Even if Rodman doesn't teach many things, he can figure them out on his own, and then keep digging deep until he masters them.

The ability to learn, Tang Qian has never lacked.

Kobe Bryant also saw that Tang Qian was very interested in studying the video, and he was not bored or perfunctory, so he promised Tang Qian to come out and analyze it together. Change someone, you see if he dumps you. Of course, Tang Qian helped him realize the biggest regret of his career, so he treated the latter differently. For the rest of the people, he can only say some official words on Twitter, and want to find him to study basketball alone, and no one among the newcomers has such a big face.

He also felt that this ball was coming, so he successfully used it, maybe it was a little stiff, but suddenly like this, little Jordan and Griffin were defenseless, and it could be regarded as Tang Qian's way. And don't forget, in the hard ability to compete for rebounding, Tang Qian has already surpassed Rodman. This is what Rodman envies, the limit of physical talent.

In this regard, he is indeed incomparable to these monsters.

Therefore, Rodman can only be stuck in the strongest super rebounder, but he can't score an inch, if he has the body of Chamberlain Russell as support, the rebounding ceiling will definitely not be 18+. His body, limiting his ceiling.

However, Tang Qian has no problem in this regard, so even if he is not proficient in using it now, then he can rely on his current rebounding ability to win this ball. Then, he was not ambiguous, jumped directly, and went straight to the basket against Jordan Jr., who had not fully turned around. This kind of non-frontal physical contact, Jordan Jr. is still in the process of turning and moving, unless the black whistle, otherwise it is basically a definite defensive foul. Tang Qian's ball, hit the board into the net, the referee blew the whistle, he had to go to the free throw line again and add a free throw.

Unfortunately, the free throw was missed, but an offensive rebound and a 2-pointer extended the Lakers' lead to 6 points.

At this time, Tang Qian's physical fitness has also reached the limit, and his physical fitness has begun to decline slowly, there is no way, and now his playing time is close to 40 minutes. Beyond that, every extra half minute is torture. The two sides entered a tug-of-war, and the fight was very difficult, but they were both racing against time. The Clippers are clearly looking to speed up the number of rounds they play, while the Lakers are doing the opposite.

Tang Qian's physical fitness declined, and his offensive and defensive status also declined, and as the game went on, the Lakers still led by 4 points when it came to 3 minutes. In order to tilt the situation a little bit on the Lakers' side, and to save time and increase the number of offensive rounds of the Clippers, Clippers head coach Doc Rivers made a decision that he thought was sound.

And this decision, just like the Rockets' dime a dime, pushed his team into the abyss.

This decision is to "cut Tang". After all, the last time the Rockets "cut Tang" only had one sample, and in the big data sample, Tang Qian was still the master of the free throws in the playoffs. And, as soon as it drops, it drops a lot. This is also the way any Western Conference team enters the playoffs, there is really no way out, and it will do to the Lakers. D'Antoni frowned as soon as he saw this, and the same went for the two on the Celestial Empire Sports Table, because now everyone knows that Tang Qian's free throws in the playoffs are poor.

It's much worse than the regular season.

It's all polite to say that it's bad.

Some netizens also said on the Internet that as soon as they saw Tang Qian going to the free throw line in the playoffs, they had to take a quick-acting heart-saving pill.

Although there are many ridicule elements, it also shows that no one is optimistic about Tang Qian's playoff free throws.

Well, so, I'm going to prove myself and just get to the free-throw line to catch my breath.

But because of the decline in physical fitness, Tang Qian's first cut was 2 free throws and 0 hits, and it seems that everything is advancing according to Rivers' expectations. And Rivers is more cunning than McHale, when he was about to cut Tang Qian, he replaced Jordan Jr., saving him from being used by the other party. Yes, it all looks perfect and does not leak.

That is, it is wrong at the source.

This ball Paul caused Jeremy Lin to be fouled, and he made 1 of 2 free throws from the free throw line? It seems that Paul is indeed very "back" tonight.

Paul flicked his wrist in frustration, and he was also dissatisfied with his 1 of 2 free throws. In his opinion, it should be 2 free throws and 2 hits. However, it doesn't matter, anyway, if your 29th doesn't go down, just wait to be cut. Go down, just wait for our crazy onslaught. Anyway, it's all earned. As a result, this time Tang Qian was sent to the free throw line, Tang Qian adjusted for a long time before making a shot, anyway, don't be too anxious about the free throw, just send it out at the specified time, 2 free throws and 2 hits.

"Well, I said, are you really going to cut me?" After Tang Qian scored 2 free throws, the Lakers led by 5 points, and he turned to Paul and asked.

"You think you're lucky enough to score 2 penalties to be proud?" Paul sneered, "You're going to cry right away." ”

The Clippers attacked, Paul burst through the ball, Redick made a three-point shot, Ariza made a timely pounce, and the ball interfered enough.

When ~ the basketball hit the iron, Tang Qian accepted the defensive rebound, and as soon as it landed, the foul whistle sounded. It looks like the only minute left is a foul without the ball, and the Clippers are ready to do their best to steal the number of turnovers. In the wave of attacks just now, they only took less than 8 seconds, a typical "D'Antoni style of play". Tang sneaked to the free throw line and hit 1 of 2 free throws, he nodded and said in his heart, well, it's okay. This hit rate is much better now than it was when it was under the influence of "Inner Demons".

Seeing that Tang Qian was still smiling on 1 of 2 free throws, Paul was unhappy, and he dribbled and played a quick pass to Barnes in the bottom right corner. Barnes didn't make a three-pointer either. It's not that someone interfered with him, or that there was no place to vote. His open spots weren't that precise, the regular season was fine, and the three-point shot fluctuated dramatically in the playoffs. When it is accurate, it can be 4 into 1 ~ 4 into 2, but when it is not allowed? There have been several times in a single season 1 into 6. So where did his three-point fluctuations go in the playoffs this season? Is it good or bad? The answer is...... Not good, very bad. So far, his three-point shooting rate is only around 26%, which is basically the same as the three-point shooting rate in the playoffs this season. Such a three-point shot is still an empty three-pointer, or an average of more than 4+ times per game. It's no wonder that the Clippers don't give him a trick at a critical moment. He and Crawford, both of whom are three-pointers in the playoffs this season, are in the early 20s, but they have to shoot an average of 4+~5+ times per game. It is not unreasonable for the Clippers to be blocked out of the West Finals. Such a large amount of shots, such iron, is a critical moment that makes people desperate.

The most frustrating, of course, is Paul, as the No. 1 position, passing is the first priority, the opportunity he passes, teammates can't shoot, what can he do. At the critical moment, he can only rely on others, and of course, the team is at a disadvantage in the confrontation.

You said you want him to play by himself, the opportunity on his teammate's side comes out, do you give it or not? If he were Jordan Kobe Iverson or something, then he didn't have to worry about it, just do it himself. However, he is not, he is a No. 1 position based on passing tandem, seeing that his teammates are empty, you don't let him pass the ball, he feels uncomfortable, and the first subconscious will not be adaptable.

That's the number one attribute of the pitch, Paul is passing, not scoring himself.

It was a long rebound, but Butler was not slow to react and got the ball. Before he could get warm, he heard the referee's whistle blow, and the Lakers' No. 29 was fouled without the ball and sent to the free throw line. With more than 13 seconds left on the clock, it should be possible to steal an attack and then make another offense. Within 2 minutes, a foul without the ball is too costly.

If you want to do this at that time, you will die yourself.

But just when the Clippers were about to grab the rebound, everyone was stunned, because there was no rebound to protect. Basketball, it's all in the basket of the Los Angeles Clippers. 2 penalties and 2 hits again, this time Tang Qian couldn't help but shake his right hand and said, "Good job, it's time to slap the people who look down on you." ”

"Let them look down on us again, this game is the end."

Paul's expression was gloomy when he heard this, and he gave Redick to the outside, but Redick didn't shoot the ball, and the basketball passed back to Chris. Paul's hands. Now that the Lakers have an eight-point lead, the Clippers may have to fall to their knees if they don't score. In order to grab time, the Clippers gritted their teeth on the No. 3 ball, played a breakthrough emergency stop, brushed, and the basketball finally pierced into the Lakers' net.

There are still 6 points left, and it should be too late to foul immediately.

Paul thought so in his heart, Tang Qian also went to the free throw line, and the result was ...... This guy hit 2 of 2 free throws again.

This...... What's going on??? Are you kidding me???

Looking at the rest of the time, Paul's mentality finally couldn't hold back, and the "Godhead" was not there.

Tang Qian also grabbed the rebound and was beaten offensively, although 2 free throws and 0 hits, but the overall situation has been decided, the rest of the Clippers are targeted to death by the Lakers, and only Paul can have the ability to attack independently to break the game. But he, tonight is not the last game, his key attack, it is never sustainable, this intermittent one without a single goal, can not help the Clippers.

In the final 10 seconds of the game, the Lakers still led by 4 points, unless Paul can play 3+1, otherwise, the Clippers will lose completely. It's lost. Of course, Tang Qian couldn't let the kind of thing that happened to his team like Nash playing 3+1 last year, so he made it very clear, let Paul shoot, and don't reach out to foul.

In fact, Paul didn't shoot the ball either, the basketball hit the iron, Tang Qian accepted the rebound, and the game was over.

The Lakers defeated the Clippers by 4 points 100-96 and advanced to the Western Conference Finals with a score of 4-2.

Tang Qian said a word to Paul at this time: "This year's West Decisive Floor said goodbye to you, let's make an appointment with them next year, the number is full~ It's a pity~" Paul's anger that he had been holding back for so long finally broke out, he directly smashed the game ball on the ground, only touched Tang Qian's hand in a touching way, and regarded it as a complete etiquette, turned around and walked briskly towards the locker room of the Clippers.

Tang Qian saved himself 17 points in this game, and the rest of the statistics also had 17 rebounds, 6 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal. Although it can't be compared with the data of the last round against the Rockets, in this round of the series, it is already good. In the end, the game was won, and the Lakers advanced to the Western Conference Finals, and his sacrifice was rewarded.

This is enough to comfort Tang Qian.

The rest of the players Jeremy Lin had 7 points, 5 assists and 1 steal, Bosh had 17 points, Butler had 8 points, and Nick Young had 10 points......

On the Clippers' side, Paul only hit 6 of 19 shots, plus free throws, to score 20 points, even if he had 9 assists and 4 steals, it couldn't close the gap. He and Tang Qian's core battle, the series, was at a disadvantage.

Because he lost, the loser is in the field of basketball, and there is no mercy.

You're the boss of the Clippers, and if you lose, it's even if you're the biggest pot.

Don't say you lost, is it the Lakers' leader who lost?

The rest of the Clippers Griffin had the best performance with 22 points, 11 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, Jordan Jr. also got 4 points, 10 rebounds and 2 blocks, and Redick scored 17 points, which is considered to have completed his playing mission. The main thing is that the Clippers' Barnes and Crawford played too poorly and shot too low. Especially the latter, who only shot 4 of 14, and the shooting rate was less than 3 percent. Three-pointers were 1 of 6 shots. In this way, he did not do his duty as the sixth person at all.

If he had been normal tonight, the Lakers wouldn't have been able to win.

Because it is the Western Conference Finals, there is also a Western Conference Championship Award Ceremony, Tang Qian looked at this silver round trophy, and he suddenly felt, oh, this is the first team honor he led the team to win. This award is worth remembering.

Bryant also turned off the TV in his office when the Lakers won the Western Conference championship trophy and lowered his head to regain his workaholic nature. It's just that the corners of his mouth, the slightly raised arc, seem to say, oh, Ben Mamba is in a good mood today.

With a score of 4-2, the Los Angeles Lakers advanced.
