224. Someone steals the show
Although Whiteside is not as good as Yao Ming on the offensive end, he may be better on the defensive end and rebounding than Yao Ming! Howard is not the Howard of the past, he has lost his previous explosiveness, and when he met Whiteside, he met Yao Ming back then, except for the defensive end, he could make up for the defense, and everything else was blown up. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The Thunder lost completely on the inside, and Green showed the defensive awareness of the future best defensive player, teaming up with Antetokounmpo and Whiteside to turn the interior into a no-fly zone.
The Lakers players are also pitiful, the coach doesn't care about defense, they have to figure out what to do by themselves, fortunately, these are all players with excellent defensive talent, and after running in for a season, they found a good way to defend, and after Green seamlessly integrated into it, the Lakers' second-team defense was upgraded again, forcing the Thunder to shoot outside. No matter how accurate Durant is, he is only one person, after Ibaka's regular season reimbursement, they only have Perkins and Adams left on the inside, a center and a rookie who are out of the times, and they are not the opponents of the future superstars of the Lakers at all, even Whiteside, who has always been eager to attack, scored 20 points, and the Lakers led the Thunder 42-15 in three seconds too much, and Durant's 40 points became completely useless.
59 wins, 19 losses, 60 wins are just one step away!
……
Hua'an has a good saying, the so-called sympathy can't help it, Liu Ren and Curry have been looking at each other like Wang Ba and Mung Bean since the last time they cooperated in the All-Star Game, and both of them have a very good impression of each other, and when they meet, they are as familiar as friends who haven't seen each other for many years.
"The first two games of your rotation scared me, and now you are sure that you are second in the league, and you can't catch up with the Spurs, who have won 62 games, I thought you would have to rotate again today, if this game is too boring without you." Curry made no secret of his fighting spirit.
"Haha, even if the coach presses me to the bench against you, I will break the bench and play!" Liu Ren was also in high spirits.
In the previous two games, Green and others played well, and Liu Ren was half happy and half couldn't wait to play.
Green, Antetokounmpo, Whiteside and Thackeray, who is likely to be a quality substitute in the future, have played so well that Liu Ren is full of expectations for the future.
But these people wantonly showed their talents on the field, which made Liu Ren very red-eyed, and he couldn't wait to go on the court to abuse his opponent together.
These four guys are all players with extremely excellent defensive talents, and Liu Ren can form a super inside no-fly zone no matter which two of them he partners with!
Finally, in this game that may be the opponent of the first round of the playoffs, D'Antoni did not continue to let the three veterans and Liu Ren take turns to rest, but played with all of them!
Now the Lakers are all healthy except for Henry, the sixteenth man who has confirmed the season reimbursement and is outside the roster, and Carman and Marshall have been completely abandoned and placed outside the activation list, and the roster is so deep that other teams are blushing.
The Lakers' starting lineup changed, with Nash, Kobe, Liu Ren, Gasol, and Green starting together.
The Warriors started with Curry, Thompson, Iguodala, David Lee and Bogut.
The Lakers' current roster has such a small shortcoming, except for Whiteside, the other interior jumpers are average.
Gasol lost to Bogut on a jump ball, and the Warriors attacked first.
So far this year, the Warriors have only one outside offensive routine left, and that is Curry's single-handed shot.
Thompson and Iguodala each pulled into the two bottom corners, with David Lee in the middle range and Bogut in the low post.
Iguodala has been with the Warriors for almost a season, averaging only 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, all of which are career lows, not even as good as his rookie season, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that he was pitted by the head coach who looked at him unpleasantly, and he is the strongest player in the Warriors' offensive organization in terms of strength, but Mark Jackson only gives him the role of pitcher and defense, and will not use this type of small forward at all.
The Warriors have played a season, the record is not good or bad, there is a feeling of unsatisfactory, compared to last season, there is not much improvement, the team has added a 4-year, 44 million contract Iguodala, is still lingering in place, Mark Jackson's current position is about to die.
Curry's first offense was, of course, on his own.
It was Liu Ren who defended Curry, and he gave Curry physical contact as much as possible, but Curry did not flinch at all, and pushed the three-point shot from an angle that was an opportunity in his eyes and had no shooting opportunity at all in the eyes of others!
Hit!
Liu Ren shook his head and was really helpless, this guy had been so accurate since the day he first saw him.
"I said it, I said it, I'm the most accurate, no one can stop me!" Curry exclaimed.
"Don't be complacent, I'll perform next!"
Liu Ren was aroused by Curry's desire to score, and was about to return Curry, but someone was naughty, and after halftime, he directly faced Curry and hit a three-point shot.
Curry's defense is naturally not Liu Ren, a guy with super impact, nor Nash's guy who likes to run around, but the singles and scumbags who defend.
Liu Ren is ready to face off against Curry, and Kobe Bryant came out to steal the show!
Curry just made a threat, Liu Ren hadn't touched the ball yet, Kobe Bryant broke out first!
Kobe Bryant first came to Curry with a three-pointer, and then when Curry singled Liu Ren, he went around the back to steal Curry, and then counterattacked with a two-handed dunk to score two points.
Kobe Bryant attacked strongly and blinded Curry, who was defending him, in his opinion, Kobe Bryant should have a good rest today, and the playoffs will be in the playoffs soon, anyway, the coach said to him, just like the last game when they played the Spurs, although the troika was on, they were all playing soy sauce, and the Spurs won the game by Leonard and a group of substitutes.
The Lakers and Spurs are both teams led by veterans, and according to Curry's cognition, the two teams should be the same, because the style of play is similar, both offenses crush the Warriors, and defense can't prevent him.
Well, in Curry's opinion, his individual offense is pretty much the same for every team in the league......
Kobe Bryant played 33 games after his comeback this year, and his statistical performance did not decline much, averaging 24 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, and he also won 60+ and 50+ in a single game.
Around this time last year, it was on this court that Bryant faced the Warriors and broke his Achilles tendon to set the stage for a win in that game and a playoff run.
But it was also that game that overwhelmed Kobe Bryant's body and collapsed......
But who is Kobe?
A super paranoid who encounters the Warriors again in this place a year later, he chooses to wipe out the shadow left by last year with an outburst!
