Chapter 313: No, Cold, Quiet!
Almighty Cultivation Supreme
Full main lineup!
After almost the entire game of tactical play, Brooks and Westphall had an extremely exciting head-to-head duel in terms of personnel rotation. Westphall was always one step ahead, taking Brooks behind him and helping the Kings maintain a 15-point lead on the road.
And now back to the full main lineup, Westfaal's gamble has also reached the time to finally test the results.
"Attack ......!"
The Thunder possession, the three young people are all on the court, and the combination of Ibaka and Perkins on the inside is strong in defense, and can help defend against the top, forming a no-fly zone on the inside.
Westbrook advanced with the ball, and Harden chose to retreat in the presence of his second brother, not stepping forward to ask for the ball, but began to run frequently without the ball in the half, and Ibaka continued to make off-ball screens.
"It's consuming the hairstylist's physical energy!"
In the barrage, someone saw the intention of the thunder: "Cousin, he has a long list of playing time today, only a period of continuous rest in the middle." Although the feel is maintained very well, and the firepower is not broken, but this kind of appearance schedule is a rotation method that only superstars will use, and it is still unknown whether my cousin can hold it! β
That's right, Gu Yu's playing time arrangement is quite similar to that of former scoring freaks such as Iverson and Kobe, find a period of time to take a long break in the middle, and then spend most of the time on the court as the first offensive point.
This method has its own advantages and disadvantages compared to the method used by many coaches today, which allows the stars of the team to repeatedly get on and off the court in scattered hours.
The advantage is that with a long period of continuous play, the ace attacker can not let his feel break after "raising" the feeling of the shot, and continue to do the output. It's like a DPS with explosive attack power.,After the basic fight is pretended.,Start to participate in team battles frequently.,Don't go to the wild area or mix the lane alone.γ
The disadvantage is that no matter how good the physical fitness of the player is, in the NBA playoff level confrontation, the physical fitness will definitely be affected if he has been on the court for so long.
The importance of physical reserve for a player is self-evident, and I believe all fans who have played NBA games have felt it:
At the beginning of the game, the players in the team felt good, they could basically score empty positions, and the shooting rate of people was also quite good, and they could also contribute to various breakthroughs and hang people's layups two plus one.
And when the game continues and the stamina bar bottoms out, the situation is not right. Not only did the efficiency of singles decrease, but even the empty shots that were finally poured out were missed, which repeatedly made players jump in anger.
So why do we always say that players like Iverson, Kobe, and Jordan are the top players on the list of scoring freaks, compared to Jamison, who has scored 50 points from back, and Marbury, who has scored 20+ points all year round, the most important reason is not the technical gap.
It's physical fitness.
ββ¦β¦ Damn, you can run! β
Following Harden in circles around the court, Gu Yu ran a little out of breath. Finally caught up, Harden ran back and went around the weak side, Ibaka came up to cover, and Gu Yu hit Gu Yu as if he was hitting a wall, and he was dizzy and almost fell.
Harden isn't fast, but he has a great sense of offense. This is not only manifested in the offense with the ball, but also in the absence of the ball, Harden's movement is also rhythmic.
Every time he turned, changed direction, and borrowed cover, it was the most difficult time for Gu Yu to exert his strength. In order to catch up with Harden, Gu Yu had to repeatedly stop, start, stop, and start again, and the physical consumption during this period was extremely terrifying.
Just like starting a car, keep moving at a constant speed, and fuel consumption is the same. However, in the congested sections of the city, the fuel consumption has gone up by constantly braking and starting, not to mention the air conditioning in the hot summer.
"Whoosh!"
Taking advantage of the cover to take advantage of the opportunity, Westbrook's pass was instantly in place, and Harden calmly made a shooting action after receiving the ball.
"I'll give you a lung!"
Gu Yu just panted and bypassed Ibaka's cover, and rushed forward, it was a flying dragon in the sky.
"Whew......!"
James Harden, collect the ball.
"The feints are beautiful!!"
In the barrage of admiration, Harden completely shook off Gu Yu, dribbled the ball and started with both hands, stepped on the direction of the baseline with one foot, causing the center of gravity of Cousins, who was supplementing the defense, to deviate, and then stepped on the middle with a very exaggerated amplitude with the second kick.
European Step!
"Rub!"
The last step took off, Harden made a unique move, and the European step completely stunned Cousins, and he was about to dunk the ball with both hands held high.
ββ¦β¦ Damn it! β
My cousin stopped doing it, gritted her teeth and stopped the momentum of her body, turned around and slapped it in the direction of the basketball.
For a moment, but for a moment.
In Harden's mind, the best plan is taking shape.
"Collect the ball in the air and change hands...... Go to the basket! Cousins hit Harden's shooter, the referee whistle blows, and the cricket ball goes in! If you score with your left hand, you will be penalized!! β
On the San Antonio side, the game came to a timeout, and the two commentators happened to see this wonderful scene and immediately applauded.
"James Harden! Beautiful offensive options, smart to the extreme! DeMarcus Cousins personally fouled for the fourth time, the Kings team fouled for the fourth quarter for the fourth quarter, and the next foul will be a direct free throw! β
"Huh!"
In the free throw, when Harden turned back to defend and left, the expression on his face was as usual, but the action he made made Cousins angry for an instant.
"Zizi Zizi ββ!"
The right hand is held flat near the chest, the palm of the hand is upward, as if holding a plate of delicious dishes, and the fingers of the right hand are constricted into a small handful, constantly swinging in circles above, and the fingers rubbing against each other.
βhahahahahaββοΌοΌ cook-them-chiefββοΌοΌ β
The Thunder's home fans were instantly detonated by this celebration, and the audience chanted and ridiculed.
βnice-move-jamesοΌοΌοΌβ
The eldest brother and the second brother also looked high, stepped forward and hit Harden's chest hard, and for a while, the court situation that was controlled by the Kings for most of the court reversed again.
"Hahaha, this celebration is very interesting!!"
Reggie Miller is also a former celebration maniac in the NBA, and he was immediately happy when he saw Harden's movements, and stretched out his hand to imitate while explaining: "In James Harden's view, the opponent is the fish on the board, and the spatula can be easily cooked in one fell swoop, and finally don't forget to sprinkle a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor!" Direct enough, arrogant enough, I like it!! β
Sprinkle salt to celebrate!
Harden's signature moves didn't do much during his time with the Thunder, and that's because most of the time, Harden wasn't the Thunder's striker and scorer. His task is more to control the pace of the game, help the overheated Westbrook cool down, and help the overheated Kevin Durant add a fire.
And in this extremely difficult game for the Thunder, Harden was unusual, and his clever mind made him make the most correct choice in the first place.
Isn't your king going to fight us?
Okay, then I shouldn't be my bench commander.
I'll also fight against you guys to see who gets cooked first, and who gets salted by the opponent first!!
"Don't do it, DeMarcus!"
The Thunder was still celebrating, the king began to attack and advance, but Westfaal, who was on the sidelines, smelled an extremely ominous aura and said loudly: "They may want to make a fuss about you, the defensive action is smaller, don't reach out easily!" β
ββ¦β¦ Be! β
Even if my cousin was unhappy in her heart, she had to admit that Lao Shuai's statement was not wrong at all.
He is the only pillar of the Kings team's inner line, without his own containment, no matter how explosive Gu Yu feels on the outside, it will be difficult to defeat the indiscriminate bombardment of the Thunder team's three young people after all.
Now with four fouls on his back, although there are only three and a half minutes left in the game, it is still dangerous. Don't think about it, with the basketball IQ of the Thunder Sanshao, he will definitely choose to impact the area he defensively and find a way to make his fouls continue to increase.
If you want to maintain your advantage and not be overtaken, you must be calm!
"Whew...... While! β
"......!"
On the offensive end, the Kings' good hand that lasted for the whole game was finally broken, Gu Yu was stuck to Harden and had no way out, and Cousins was entangled by Perkins again, and there was no offensive space at all. Evans couldn't find the right time to pass the ball, and when the 24 seconds were approaching, he had no choice but to opt for a dry pull-up jumper.
Evans scolded, still regretting in his heart that his shooting was really not stable enough.
ββ¦β¦ Syllable! β
Westbrook had been flying for nine days to grab the rebound, turn around and start a long run.
"Bang bang!!"
Crazy sprint, Wei Shao is like a supercar with the brake pads removed, accelerating in a straight line and rampage, and throwing off Evans in the blink of an eye.
"Back to the ......!!!"
Cousins secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly ran back to the defense, but how could Wei Shao's speed easily catch up? The whole team of the Kings is desperately chasing back, and it can only become the background behind Wei Shao.
It's going to be deducted!
The adrenaline of everyone on the scene is ready, just waiting for Wei Shao to soar into the sky and make a violent super explosive button.
ββ¦β¦ Russell! β
On the sidelines, Brooks turned his head and shouted.
β¦β¦ Well?
Westbrook heard the manager's shouts and just wanted to continue to charge regardless of it.
"I'm back!!"
But behind him, Cousins's voice had already sounded.
Durant and Harden flew together on both wings, drawing the full defensive attention of the Kings from the outside.
He broke through the middle, and only Evans was chasing behind him, and it was still a long way off.
Cousins was near the top of the arc when he started just now, so it's not surprising that he was able to catch up at this time.
If he jumps and dunks directly, Cousins is bound to be impossible to interfere with.
But if there is a slowdown at this time......
"Bang Bang"
As soon as his mind moved, Wei Shao, who was rarely calm at such a moment, calmed down very rarely.
"Rub!"
Cousins was only thinking about chasing the hat, not realizing that something was wrong, and seeing that Wei Shao was close at hand, he immediately took off and rushed over.
Wei Shao, preemptively.
ββ¦β¦ Rub!! β
Finding the right time, Wei Shao faked a pause, took half a step slower to jump, and when he began to rise, he just caught up with Cousins and began to fall.
With his right hand, the ball was raised high, Wei Shao's body formed a reverse bow, and the violent tomahawk dunk action had been made, and the audience held their breath.
"Smack"
Cousins' hand involuntarily slapped Wei Shao's right arm.
"Beep beep beep ββ!!!"
The referee's whistle blew, but he didn't have time to call out the penalty.
ββ¦β¦ Bang!!!! β
Westbrook, Tomahawk Storm Buckle Two Plus One!!
