416. A little bit about the best defensive player

I have to say that Barkley and O'Neal are alive and well, their vision and analysis of the game have always been good, but the two are not responsible for this aspect at all in the live broadcast, there is such a professional Kenny Smith, they are responsible for playing Paula to increase the ratings. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

This time their analysis is very correct, without Duncan and Ginobili, the strength of the Spurs has dropped a lot, and they could have fought with the Lakers, after all, the championship is there, but neither of them is there, Leonard can't hold down the court at all, even if Parker is on the side to help, because Parker himself is not a big-scene player.

The biggest drop this season is not so much Danny Green, who has a three-point hole, but Parker.

Although Danny Green lost his shooting bag for three points inexplicably, his defense is still there, a proper first-class defense, the kind that can be included in the best defensive lineup, he reduced his three-point shots and defended with all his strength, and his efficiency improved a lot.

Although Danny Green fell into a vicious circle because the reduction of three-point shooting made the road to finding his touch harder, it was not so pitiful.

Parker, on the other hand, is declining across the board, and his offense has fallen to a career low this year, averaging 8.9 points per game and shooting 37 percent from the field, which is not as good as his rookie season.

For no other reason, Parker's decline is old.

He's a speedy point guard, and he's not particularly strong, and once his physical fitness drops, his form drops very badly.

Parker was also the Spurs' leading scorer last season, averaging 16 points per game, and this season he averaged less than 9 points per game.

But this can't be helped, those All-Star level players in the entire NBA history, except for a very few who can maintain good condition after the age of 30, most of them decline rapidly once they are over 30 years old, at most 323, including Maddie, Pippen and others.

Injuries are inevitable when you get older, especially if you have always relied on your body to play, and it is not easy for a point guard like Parker, who has no other excellent physical conditions except speed, to maintain his condition until the age of 33 before starting to decline.

The offense can't be attacked, the defense can't be defended, Parker's point has become a breakthrough for the Lakers, and they have seized this point from the beginning.

Parker defended who was strong, Jeremy Lin and Kobe Bryant included Nash, who replaced the game, and Clarkson kept pulling out Parker's point, Leonard, the outside defensive gate, had to make up for the defense, and then they passed back to Liu Ren to shoot three points.

These gossip men probably felt uneasy about their conscience after ridiculing Liu Ren, and sometimes they even had a good scoring opportunity and waited for Leonard to make up for it before passing it to Liu Ren.

As a result, Liu Ren scored 19 points in the first quarter and 14 points in the second quarter, a rare halftime score of more than 30 in the past month.

I have to say that Leonard is about to start the years of being a father and a mother when James and Wade, Kobe, Maddy and others were young, he is like Rondo, at first it was the Big Three who took him to the world, and now he has become a mother, and he is going to take three old men to the end of the world......

"Charles, this game is so boring, Leonard's progress is too slow, and his progress is too slow compared to the boss." O'Neill yawned.

"That's right, Shaq, you said that they are all rookies in the 11th class, why is the gap so big?"

Kenny Smith must have said the opposite at this time: "It's not that Leonard is making slow progress, it's that Liu is making too fast progress, don't you think?" Liu's shooting talent is much better than Leonard's, and he has practiced mid-range shooting in just two summers. And Leonard is still better than Liu in terms of defense. ā€

O'Neal exclaimed in surprise as if he had heard a fantasy: "Leonard's defense is better than the boss?" Kenny, are you kidding? Leonard is strong defensively, but I think the boss will be stronger, and you forgot what he did with Paul and Westbrook in the playoffs last season? I think the boss is the best defensive player of the year! ā€

"That's the problem, no matter what kind of opponent Leonard faces, he will defend with all his might, and Liu is different, if the opponent can't arouse his interest, he prefers to destroy the opponent with offense, like today he defended Leonard very well, but if his opponent is someone else, he doesn't work so hard to defend alone, do you think he will defend against opponents of Rubio or Teague like Curry, Leonard, Paul?" Kenny Smith asked rhetorically.

"Shaq, don't argue with Kenny, his mouth can turn black into white...... But this time he was right, you Lakers players except Kobe Bryant are all this strange virtue, and you don't even want to stretch out your hands when you defend opponents who are far inferior to you. MVP: I think the boss has a chance to win, and the best defensive player is probably a bit difficult. Barkley rarely endorses Kenny Smith's words.

O'Neill couldn't refute that, as if it were.

"And I think there's one guy on the Lakers who has more talent for winning the best defensive player than Liu." Kenny Smith said like a god.

"Who? Whiteside? He does have that talent, and his dominance of inside rebounds and blocks is too strong, averaging only 27 minutes per game, and he can grab 14 rebounds and close to four blocks. O'Neal still recognizes Whiteside, the guy who took over the Lakers' super center tradition, and his attitude towards basketball is much more dedicated than his last successor, Bynum, and would rather give up his high overseas salary to come back to play in the NBA with a base salary, and his professionalism is not at the same level as Bynum.

Kenny Smith shook his head and said, "No, no, no, no, Whiteside is great, yes, but he still has problems defending outside of the reasonable collision zone, and the Lakers' interior defense can be so amazing, relying on the most inconspicuous guy." ā€

"The most inconspicuous guy? What are you talking about...... Green? Barkley asked, confused.

Kenny Smith wanted to continue to show off his expertise, but O'Neal mixed it up.

O'Neal said: "Charles, it doesn't matter who can win the best defensive player, it's not the boss who takes it, I'm not interested at all, let's watch the game, the boss may be able to score 40 points today, and the boss can't be limited without Duncan only Leonard." ā€

Barkley is right to think about it, the best defensive player is often not recognized as the best defensive player, and since Liu Ren can't get it, he doesn't have much interest.

"That's right, it doesn't matter who wins the best defensive player, but this game is too suspenseless, the Lakers have seized Parker's breakthrough and have pulled the score away, Leonard's offense is still a little bit hot, not enough to compete with the boss and Kobe. By the way, Shaq, did you know that the boss has hooked up with a new woman again? "But if you want to watch the game, Barkley is still bored, in terms of the lineups sent by the two sides, the difference in strength is too big! Or gossip is more interesting!

"Oh? I remembered that I heard that the boss was photographed in Hollywood dating a girl who looked like a junior high school student or a high school student, and I didn't expect the boss to be so good......"

……

Unbeknownst to Liu, he had been gossiped about on the national broadcast, and he was now working hard to defend Leonard and then try his best to shoot the Spurs on the offensive end.

The Lakers will not forget the shame of being bloodied in the playoffs last season, in the face of the Spurs with declining strength, the Lakers players did not spare a little, and Liu Ren scored 45 points after the third quarter, helping the Lakers lead by 27 points at 92-65, and the Lakers only closed up and replaced the water cooler lineup.

Leonard's scoring ability is already very good, but without the help of Duncan and Ginobili, he only scored 17 points in this game, and there is still a little gap between him and the real first-class scorer, and his independent scoring ability is still lacking.

However, Liu Ren knows that he will evolve further next season, but he is still in the growth period.

In the end, the Lakers defeated the Spurs 115-99, won five in a row, and improved their record to 30-3.

In January, the first opponent who would have been tougher won easily because the opponent was rested.

Liu Ren did not let up in this regard, because this month's difficult schedule is just the beginning!
