Chapter 661: Winning streak!

"Rick Bobcats, Kings end losing streak!"

After the game against the Bobcats, the Kings continued their road trip. Although the game itself is not an eye-catching conversation, the content revealed by the game itself has made many media excited, and the layout is given one page after another.

This is the first time in the past three seasons that the Kings have played almost an entire positional battle against an opponent.

"In the whole game, the Kings only had 6 fast breaks, and 5 of them were successful, of which my cousin alone urged 4 times, either scoring himself or assisting his teammates to score. There was also a successful fast attack, and my cousin also participated, it was a high-throw pass after Wei Shao broke through to the front court, and my cousin caught the storm in the air! ”

In the media's comments, many people were a little surprised that the Kings could play such a beautiful slow-paced game.

And for the first time, after Phil Jackson settled in the Kings and began to take the helm, the Kings played some pretty beautiful triangular offensive combinations.

"We don't know if the Kings have all the players who understand the essence of the triangle offense. Judging from the game scene, their triangle attack is still relatively rudimentary, just a shape. The essence of it has not yet been fully revealed. ”

On this point, many media also commented: "But even so, the Kings still relied on their terrifying talent and cousin's inexplicable one-on-one strength to take out one of the best defensive teams in the league, the Bobcats, with such a rudimentary primary triangle offense." We can fully imagine how terrifying this team will be on the offensive end after Phil Jackson's overhaul of the Kings' offensive tactics in another season or two. ”

As long as the fans who have watched this game will not have any doubts about Gu Yu's one-on-one positional battle strength. And those fans who didn't see the live game, but just searched for video highlights after the game, felt the despair in the hearts of the Bobcats players on the opposite side from the picture of Gu Yu continuously hitting fatal shots in the middle of the game.

Who says that mid-range shooting has retired from the stage of history and has become the most inefficient offensive option on the basketball court?

Those teams and players who think so, just because they don't shoot accurately enough!

"On the other hand, the Kings also ushered in a good news in the final moments of the game, because of the impact of injuries, and the starting center Andrew Bynum, who had been out of action for more than two months, finally returned!"

Bynum's comeback has also become a hot topic of discussion.

In the eyes of many people, the Kings' record this season is relatively poor, although there are a large number of injury factors, but Gu Yu and Wei Shao have always been healthy, even if they rely on these two people's invincible individual offense, the Kings deserve a better record.

Of course, Gu Yu, Wei Shao, and even Green, McGee and others have to be banned for technical fouls.

Whenever there is such an argument, Kings fans will always use reasons such as "Andrew has not returned" and "George has not returned" to excuse the home team.

But with Granger returning from injury and Beasley playing well, it is doubtful whether George's role is still that important.

Now that Bynum is back on the court, the Kings seem to have no excuse to continue to sink.

Fans who hate the Kings, Gu Yu or Wei Shao are all waiting and looking forward to it, and they just want to see the Kings' jokes. If Bynum returns and the Kings still don't have a good record, then they can laugh at the Kings as much as they want, just a paper tiger.

On the other hand, Kings fans are holding their breath in their hearts, how many times they have lost this season, it is because the interior line can't defend against those heavy weapons, and it is very regrettable to lose by a millimeter. Now that Bynum is back, and the Kings' roster is close to complete, it's time for a streak of wins, morale, and a punch in the face of those sunspots.

The Kings did not disappoint the fans.

"It's over! It's over!! Sacramento Kings, away win over Memphis Grizzlies! The Grizzlies did not continue their previous wonderful performances, and Randolph played poorly under the entanglement of Dream Green, only 15 points and 7 rebounds. And Gasol Jr. was even more psychologically shadowed by Bynum, except for a few mid- and long-range shots, the basket offense almost didn't score!! ”

With Bynum guarding the basket, Green can finally play to his strongest strength, mobility. Green, who doesn't have to top up on the opponent's tall interior line under the basket, shows his out-of-time style of play, and he can be seen everywhere in the entire two-point area.

And Bynum has become a pillar under the king's basket, just recovered from injury, on the offensive end, Bynum can only eat cake for the time being, and the feeling has not completely returned, and some offensive options have also made Wei Shao roar on the court.

But on the defensive end, Bynum's role is too obvious.

"I don't lose my movement at my feet, I have recovered quite well in my running and jumping ability, my body is thick, and my sense of defensive position has improved a lot. Andrew Bynum's performance of 12 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks made up for the impact of the absence of the King's core cousin Gu Yu, and the Kings won away from home, winning two in a row!! ”

Well...... That's right......

Gu Yu, because of the accumulation of 16 technical fouls in the season, was severely fined by the league and banned......

Without Gu Yu, the Kings won on the road and continued to rush to the next game.

"My cousin has the ball, and he has a strong side waist! The space is very open, do you want to wrap it...... Voted! Step-back jumper mid-mid-mid!! ”

“YEEEEEEEES——!!!”

After returning, Gu Yu seems to be consciously changing his playing style slightly, reducing the face frame attack, reducing the sneak run, and increasing a considerable proportion of the back singles.

On the defensive end, after Gu Yu didn't sneak away, the Kings' defensive line was more complete, and the overall defensive effect went to a higher level. Especially in the face of a team that is fierce in grabbing frontcourt rebounds and is good at secondary offense, the Kings' backcourt rebounding protection ability has been significantly improved.

But fans who are familiar with the Kings can see that Gu Yu's more back-to-back singles means that one thing is happening:

Phil Jackson is finally starting to fully implement his triangle offensive strategy......!

So, two days after the away win over the Grizzlies, the Kings continued to play away from home, 109-89, a 20-point difference, easily defeated the Nuggets, and won three in a row.

In the game, Wei Shao had 26 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists, Bynum had 13 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks, Dream Green had 11 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

The most terrible thing is, of course, Gu Yu's 43 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and the Nuggets' extremely well-stocked forward guard line is like a toy in front of Gu Yu, and he has no power to fight back.

People seem to see the figure of the old rascal who rules the league with his step-back jumper again.

One more day, the Kings rushed to the next venue overnight, and the away games were back-to-back, and in extremely unfavorable circumstances, the game was dragged until the last minute.

"Bang, bang, bang"

“DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! ”

Houston, Space City, Harden led the Rockets and a group of musketeers to bring the Kings an extremely rigorous test with the purest magic ball on the offensive end.

People originally expected that this would be a Mars vs. Earth-style offensive battle, but the Kings seemed to be quite stubborn in wanting to continue to investigate the power of their triangle attack, and the pace was not as fast as everyone thought.

No matter how many times the Rockets used their fiery fast attack in the game, the nerves of the Kings players who were unwilling to be lonely, the Kings all remained sober, did not risk half a point, and played strictly according to the game strategy formulated by Phil Jackson.

101-102, after Harden hit a soul-stealing three-pointer, the Rockets led by 1 point at home, and with less than 20 seconds left in the game, the Kings players handed the ball directly to Gu Yu without hesitation.

The time of lore is coming.

“DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! ”

In the Toyota Center, the fans of the Sky City kept shouting, shouting in unison, and the heavy drums released by the DJ kept beating the hearts of the Kings players.

This season's Rockets, with Harden, Jeremy Lin, Howard, Parsons, Beverley and other good players, in terms of fame and talent, do not seem to be under the Kings.

And in the first half of the season, the Rockets have already won quite a good record. Even though there are constant news that Harden and Howard have differences at the tactical level, the Rockets still rely on strong offensive and defensive suppression, as well as the advantage of the two positions, and the record is soaring.

This match, which was originally considered to be a very interesting game, was full of points to watch in the matchup.

Howard vs. Bynum, a former overlord, a lonely genius, are both physical maniacs, both traditional center play, which is better or worse, which attracts attention.

Harden vs. Gu Yu, one is the super core who grabs scoring assists, the other is a scoring demon who only has baskets in his head, and the new generation of all-round backcourt is against the old-fashioned scoring machine, who is stronger is also expected.

But because the Kings are still back-to-back on consecutive away games, the Rockets seem to be more energetic on the court than the Kings.

Especially Gu Yu is no longer playing so gorgeously, and the way of playing with his back and his back looks a little dull.

But only Harden himself knows that in the No. 2 position in this league, the only star who can rely on his back and his own tendons (FEI) without relying on speed is probably Gu Yu.

Moreover, Gu Yu has already scored 39 points.

Under the watchful eye, Gu Yu, start.
