Chapter 223: Hidden but Not Revealed

To put it simply, Totoro's body is not at all like a rookie who has just finished a year in the college league, but a veteran who has been in the league for many years and has reached the peak of his body, others need to spend 3 years to redeem the potential of their body, and Totoro is the peak as soon as he enters the league, and there is no one who is awesome.

The situation of the Rockets substitute with Totoro suddenly became different from the second game, Totoro has not made much effort, and the Spurs bench players began to be afraid, the shadow of the so-called famous tree, and now Totoro gradually has some of his own power, those players who compete with him will be afraid that they will be hit by a bloody cap with a head and face or be split by someone if they are not careful, the physical fitness of NBA players is the world's top, but the perverts on the opposite side seem to be stronger than them to a realm.

When it came to the bench stage, Totoro still didn't rush to score points, and today his thinking is very clear, that is, to grasp the team's defense first, first raise the players' defensive confidence, and then solve the problem of the offensive end.

He didn't deliberately look at Ginobili, but gave him to Battier, who was more suitable for defending the Argentine demon knife, because Ginobili is a smart player, and the president is a smart defender, the so-called wicked people need evil people to grind, no, it should be smart people need smart people to deal with, Battier can't completely prevent Ginobili, but he can limit him to a normal range, but that's enough.

My Neighbor Totoro has been freed from the heavy responsibility of defending Ginobili, but the defensive burden on his shoulders has not been lightened, but it is more severe than before, because Totoro is not a single defense of any specific person from now on, but needs to pay attention to all five people on the field, basically whoever has a threat in his position has to make up for it, and Totoro needs to make up for the five people.

Adelman originally didn't agree with Totoro doing this, no one can pay attention to five people at the same time, even if someone can do it, this is also extremely exhausting, he doesn't think Totoro can do this, even if he can do it, this affects his offensive state is not what Shuai wants to see.

However, then Totoro's performance was beyond his and everyone's expectations........

In the first round, the Spurs relied on patient cooperation and precise running to put the ball into the inside, Bonner was just about to put the ball into the empty basket after receiving the basket, but Totoro was like a god descending from the sky from the side, and quickly rose into the air and slapped the ball on the rebound, because the rush was too fast, Totoro couldn't stand the strength after covering the hat, and directly fell down among the Spurs' cheerleaders, which instantly caused a scream, and at the same time, the group of Spurs cheerleaders saw a rare opportunity, At the same time, he stretched out his sinful little hand to Totoro, what to pinch his face, pull his hair is pediatric, Totoro actually feels that a girl is actually touching his little brother, which is a little too unrestrained.

The basketball was printed on the rebound and then fell back into Bonner's hands, but at this time Gasol Jr. had already run back from the middle circle, seeing that the 24-second offensive time was about to end, Bonner had no choice but to force Gasol Jr. and bully this seemingly "inexperienced" rookie, but unfortunately the red mamba didn't seem to know how to write the word "death".

Against a player like Gasol Jr., you can fool the opponent with a feint like you would with a Totoro, but if you want to shoot on the head of a 2.16 big man without even shaking it, isn't that looking for a hat?

Poor Bonner was educated by two rookie rookies in the same round, the big white bear fanned the ball directly outside the three-point line, Ginobili quickly picked up the ball on the floor and threw it at will, and the three points were really thrown into the board by him!! But when he made a shot, the red light on the timer was already on, and the Spurs violated the 24-second offense in this round.

"Kenny, do you know how long it's been since I've seen this kind of suffocating defensive duel? Although most fans like to watch offense, defense is the essence of basketball, and although this kind of boring defensive battle will make most fans find it boring, it will make those who really understand the game of basketball fascinated. ”

With fewer games now played, the game between the Rockets and Spurs has become a national live broadcast, and Barkley has another chance to explain the Totoro game.

"Is the Pistons bad defensively? Is the Magic bad defensively? Are Celtics bad defensively? There are still a lot of teams in this league that are known for their defense. ”

Kenny Smith gave a few random examples, and he wondered why this big ass just liked Totoro, maybe he was a broken bunny, right? It's scary to think about it, it's very possible!

"The Pistons' defense is like a bad boy fighting, without a bit of technical content, and the Magic team only relies on Howard alone to support him on the inside, but that monster has not grown much over the years, his defensive awareness is the same as his never-good interior footwork and free throws, or easy to be jumped by others, the Celtics rely on Garnett's mental will support, that guy is good, but he will not be able to do it soon, the wolf king is strictly a player of the same era as us."

Sir Char Barkley made an analysis one by one on the live broadcast seat, "But the Rockets are different from the Spurs, the Spurs have a great coach who has created a great system, and an excellent core host, other players don't need to be very talented, as long as they work according to this system to play a rocky defense, while the Rockets have a group of best defensive players to form an unbeatable single defense lineup." ”

"Godala, Battier, has long been a well-known defensive giant, Yao Mingsheng's height advantage can defend the restricted area well, and Totoro's flying away has become a nightmare for all attackers, if they can solve the problem of point guard, I dare to say that no team in this league dares to fight them."

Char Barkley had a yearning expression on his face, which almost didn't make his partner Kenny Smith vomit in disgust, and Kenny also knew who the big ass was talking about, he had two very promising defensive playmaker masters in the league, Rondo and Paul, but he didn't directly name them in front.

But it's impossible to think about it, Paul is a new superstar in the league, the league's No. 1 point guard, in this era when huddles are not yet popular, the queen bee is unlikely to join the Rockets regardless of her dignity, and the Rockets may not be able to come up with a contract that meets Paul's needs, Rondo is a rookie player that the Green Army focuses on cultivating, as a sophomore, he has been able to play 10+4+10 excellent data, and now the playoffs have occasional bright performances, in the special period when the Big Three are declining, The Celtics are unlikely to send Rondo away as a bargaining chip, the general manager of the Green Shirts, Ange, is not like the Wizards, the 76ers are stupid and forced managers to only do loss-making transactions, this year's draft pick has been released, although the champion sign is still in the hands of the Clippers, but the Rockets have the Grizzlies' No. 10 pick [one place higher than history], and the Wizards' No. 10 pick [one place higher than history], their No. 25 pick, although the Knicks' No. 6 pick was traded to the Raptors A bit of a loss, but the Rockets are still equal to empty gloves White Wolf blood to make a wave, Grizzlies, the Knicks and the general managers of the 76ers have been afraid to go out recently, for fear of going out and being bricked.

The Rockets now want Rondo Rockets to have to pay more chips, such as Totoro or something, or take the first ten rounds of the draft, but Mo Lei can't do these stupid transactions, next year's point guard seedlings can be described as too many, and it's better to cultivate one yourself if you're in the mood to pick up the rest........

Char Barkley obviously noticed this, he had to continue to bow to this year's best general manager Morey, originally Morey was a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, only a nerd who would only take an iPad to analyze data, but this year Totoro seemed to inject him with true energy, so that he suddenly opened up, and the major transactions were decisive and big, but after practice proven, the Rockets used the straw bale players who were defeated in exchange for future stars with real potential. Could it be that Morey is really so godly?

However, what others don't know is that there is actually a voice of Totoro behind these transactions, and he always secretly tells Morey that he likes such and such a player, and hates such and such a player, gives Morey a general direction, and then lets him do it himself, as a result, Morey, who was originally intended to please Totoro, was unwittingly elected the best manager in the league this year.

Speaking of which, other awards in the league this year have also been released one after another, My Neighbor Totoro won the league's best rookie, rookie team, defensive three teams and best team three team honors, Yao Ming is still the best second team consolation award that has not changed for a hundred years, Howard beat Garnett to get the best defensive player, and achieved two consecutive seats in this award, but think about it, he is the league's rebounding king and block king, this award is also a matter of course, Kobe Bryant and James's regular season MVP team has also come to an end, Volute eventually defeated the Gorillas to claim his first regular-season MVP.

Interestingly, though, Kobe's MVP trophy seemed to have had an accident on the way over, and the trophy was accidentally broken, and although the league immediately allocated a second spare trophy, this bad omen always seemed to indicate something.

The battle between the Spurs and the Rockets continued, with Ginobili breaking the scoring drought for the Spurs with several consecutive difficult shots, while Totoro continued to penetrate the team, using his threat to create opportunities for his teammates, and the two teams still had a hard time on the bench.

Popovich frowned off the court, today's Totoro made him a little incomprehensible, but there was a little palpitation in his heart, today's Totoro is too steady, too conservative, many times when he should score and don't shoot, he helps his teammates find his state at the first opportunity, he has only 6 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists so far, Popovich changed the assistant coach and saw the data of Totoro, and immediately had an ominous feeling.

Popovich is not afraid of Totoro's crazy output now, in fact, he is happy to see this scene, because no matter how many points Totoro can score at this time, he will encounter a physical crisis now, not to mention, he can still come up with a countermeasure in time, even if he leads him by 20 points and 30 points with the Rockets now, his team has enough time to turn defeat into victory.

But he was afraid that Totoro would be tepid now, and he would slowly stalemate with the Spurs, and when there was not much time in the fourth quarter, he suddenly broke out and caught the Spurs off guard, and ended the game without even giving a chance.

This is more terrifying than Kobe's nickname Black Mamba, although the venom of the poisonous snake is incurable, but at least people can still take precautions, Totoro is now like a clever hunter, a cold-blooded sniper, he has the strength to break out now, but he doesn't, he doesn't move his phone until the time comes to kill with one hit.

"A first-year rookie is so calm?"

The old man himself also felt a little incredible, although he had seen too many temperaments in Totoro that were completely inconsistent with the rookie, who would have thought that he was a player who couldn't even play the ball in the NCAA league at the beginning, and then slowly became a starter, averaging only about 20 points per game?

"Since you don't exert your strength, I will force you to exert your strength, I don't believe that you are calmer than me."

Popovich saw that it was not a way to go on like this, although they also had GDP in the team to deal with, but Totoro's short-term scoring explosiveness is not unseen, like what 3 minutes to score 12, 13 points is too common, although GDP is great, but they are more inclined to win in stability, accustomed to slowly gaining an advantage in positional warfare, and then slowly consolidating the advantage, and finally turning the advantage into a victory, if it is really a critical moment to be anxious like this, Popovich was afraid that the three of them would not be able to kill Totoro alone.

So he immediately came up with a countermeasure, 2 minutes earlier than the scheduled time to replace the stone Buddha and the French sports car, he wants to fight with the rocket now, to see if this Totoro can not be retracted and fight.

If the other side doesn't say it, the Spurs will lead by 15 minutes and 20 minutes in minutes, and dig a big hole for you to climb first, if Totoro breaks out now, the old man's hanging heart will be put down, you must know that he has not played until now.

But Adelman competed against each other, and immediately signaled to Battier after seeing GDP on the court, the president took the initiative to pat Duncan on the ass and asked the referee for a foul, and the Rockets didn't even give the Spurs a chance to attack in one round, and forced a dead ball for substitution.

The same four up and four down, the rocket is going to send its main force again.

Today, Totoro's plans are well known to the Rockets, so although Totoro is ready to play the whole game, they still won't put too much pressure on him, and they will do their best to help Totoro stabilize the game in the first three and a half quarters, and in the last half quarter, Totoro will lead them to victory!
