Chapter 699: Almost Succeeded
Snyder was surprised, Tang Shuai had never shown this trick before, but after all, he had coached in the league for many years, and it was easy to adjust his mentality, and he only regarded it as a temporary play. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As the team shifted offense, he shouted from the sidelines for Gobert to improve his defensive focus.
The Jazz's offense, Millsup received the ball in the low post and wanted to play, this ball Knoll helped defend in place, he finally didn't get a good shot, and finally passed to Hayward's strong three-point shot, and the rebound was turned around by Knoll to grab it.
The basketball passed to Tang Shuai's hands, he held the ball and then advanced to the frontcourt, and before the Jazz defense was fully up, he accelerated and rushed inward.
Snyder yelled from the sidelines, Gobert shrunk to the basket, and Millsup stepped up.
Tang Shuai changed direction with an acceleration, used the speed advantage to pass Millsup, and saw that Gobert was still shrinking under the basket, and took a big step forward, half a meter away from Gobert, which was directly a high throw.
Gobert pounced to defend, but the shot was too high for even his long arm to block.
The basketball flew high past Gobert's fingertips and fell straight down after reaching its highest point.
"Huh!"
With a crisp sound, Tang Shuai's throw hit again!
"How is that possible?!" Snyder was shocked, Tang Shuai actually used a move he had never used before to score twice in a row.
Although it is said that there are only three things, it is enough to prove one thing that such a thing happened twice, Tang Shuai has the technology of throwing.
In fact, Snader is indeed observant, after synthesizing the skill package, Tang Shuai's breakthrough power is much weaker than last season, especially because there is no high-level layup package, coupled with the existence of Westbrook, there are few breakthroughs to the inside in the new season.
He noticed this, so he made a targeted defense on defense, focusing on Tang Shuai's defensive shooting, which would have been as effective as defending Westbrook if it had been changed a few days ago.
But there is a saying that people are not as good as heaven, and he probably couldn't have imagined that Tang Shuai suddenly had such a strong throwing technique.
The Jazz's offense was once again in vain, and the Jazz team still maintained the previous strategy on the defensive end, this time Tang Shuai was more thorough, he didn't call his teammates to run, he didn't even call for blocking, he directly pressed Hill to the free throw line, a quick stop, and after pushing Hill away with his strength, he started with another throw, and there was a shot!
At this time, Snyder couldn't sit still, so he got up and called a timeout.
When Tang Shuai left the game, the fans at the scene suddenly burst into a burst of excited cheers, Snyder swore before the game that he would limit Tang Shuai and Westbrook, but as soon as the game started, he was slapped hard by reality.
After the timeout, Snyder adjusted his defensive strategy, and the general defensive formation was boundless, but Gobert's defense was obviously a little more outward.
However, this did not bring the effect he wanted, and the French sports car throwing bag definitely had more than that.
On the Lakers' offense, Tang Shuai got rid of Hill's defense and rushed to the basket, faced Gobert who pounced, leaned up, made a beautiful 360° turn, and went directly around Gobert as the axis near the block, and then before turning completely, the hand was another small throw.
Goebel's eyes followed the movements, and with his body pressed, the movements of his hands were noticeably slower.
"Bang!"
After the basketball shot, it hit the rebound along the trajectory, and then bounced into the net bag.
Gobert, who didn't cover it, looked very annoyed and even punched himself.
Tang Shuai looked at Goebel with a smile, then turned around and ran back.
Parker's throwing, in addition to the long-distance throwing in the offense, also has a trick, that is, turning the top on the spot, and the point of the shot in rotation is very difficult to predict.
Snyder was really stunned.
Tang Shuai is not only good at this throw, but also very good at it.
There was a huge hole in his prediction.
The level of NBA coaches is high, but it is difficult to respond in a game when the pre-game setup is completely wrong.
The Jazz team was beaten by Tang Shuai at the beginning, the defense they relied on for survival did not work, and the trend of the game was set, although Snyder arranged the defense again at halftime, but it still could not limit Tang Shuai's play.
127-110, the Lakers finally won the 11th win of the season against the Jazz at home, and also successfully won 11 consecutive wins, which is considered the seventh consecutive win in the preseason, and they have not tasted defeat for more than a month.
In the whole game, Westbrook scored a triple-double of 18 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists, Gasol contributed 16 points and 9 rebounds, in addition to Stephenson and Batum's scoring double-doubles, the team has a total of 5 players scoring double-doubles.
However, the biggest contributor to the victory was clearly Tang Shuai, who made 18 of his 28 shots in the game, including seven throws, and scored a game-high 43 points.
At the press conference after the game, the team praised Tang Shuai's performance, and even put forward Snyder's pre-game remarks to compare with the performance of the two cores in this game.
For these words of reporters, Tang Shuai was unprecedentedly indifferent, he said bluntly: "There are 82 regular season games in the league, and we have to face different opponents every night, and I know that our opponents will study us, study me and Russell, or other players, but in fact, we are also doing this kind of thing, Coach Quinn is a good coach, in fact, he almost succeeded." ”
Almost succeeded!
The reporters didn't feel much about this remark, but after the media sent it out, it immediately caused a strong reaction from fans.
Blue Wind and Snow Marks: Basketball is a five-person sport, but when one of them is too strong to exceed the others, and even a defensive system can't prevent it, it will become another sport, just like Michael Jordan did at the beginning, really, Tang Shuai is not wrong at all, Snyder is a good enough coach, which can be seen from the tactical arrangement and adjustment in his game, he is just like other coaches, he can't limit Tang Shuai, really!
One inch, time: To be honest, do you think the current Tang Shuai can really be defended? More than 6 percent of three-point shots, more than 6 percent of two-point shots, a comparison of low post back play and backward stability, and now there is such a difficult ecstasy, I don't have any other questions, the question is, can this really be defended?
Free bookshelf: No, in fact, there is, any player has weaknesses, there is no doubt about it, even if it is as strong as the original "basketball god" Michael Jordan, his three-point shot has always been relatively poor, Tang Shuai of course also has it, his weakness is, himself! Although he is not stable, in fact, he may still have times when he is not in good shape!
……
Tang Shuai is in excellent form, and he has a strong performance in the next games against the Nuggets and the Heat.
Under his and Westbrook leadership, the Lakers have continued to work hard and won an astonishing 13 consecutive victories!
In just two months, the Lakers have become the hottest team in the league, and even because of Tang Shuai's existence, it is even more eye-catching than Tang Shuai's Warriors.
After 13 games, Tang Shuai was able to contribute an average of 34.2 points per game, scoring a full 5 points ahead of the second-place Harden, which was completely crushing.
His strong performance has also attracted unanimous praise from the media and experts.
From the initial skepticism he faced when he entered the league, to the lack of recognition in the All-Star vote, and even the injustice he encountered in the Rookie of the Year selection, none of this stopped him from moving forward.
Step by step, he continued to make a name for himself with his continuous improvement performance, and also made those who questioned and looked down on him change their views step by step.
Kenny Smith is the most typical example, at the beginning, he joked with Barkley that Tang Shuai at that time was not much different from other rookies for him, but when Tang Shuai was controversially selected as MVP in his rookie season, he expressed his displeasure, although he didn't know where this feeling came from, but he did become Tang Hei for a long time, but as time went by, Tang Shuai's performance improved day by day, and the gentlemanly performance shown in the face of the media and fans, Let him start to reflect, and after that, he will naturally turn black.
This time, Don Shuai and Westbrook led the Lakers to play such a strong performance, and he did not hesitate to praise: We witnessed a team with very different styles (the Warriors) not long ago, and they let us know that shooting can also bring championships, but this season, we see another possibility, it is a bit retro (dual-core), but it seems unprecedented (outside dual-core), but Don and Russell are proving with night after night victory, proving that we are all witnesses of history at this moment.
Smith is just one of many commentators, Weber, O'Neill, etc., they have all been moved by Tang Shuai's performance step by step.
In the new MVP rankings, Tang Shuai finally beat Durant, Curry, James and others and became the first person on the list.
It was also the first time in his career that he had appeared in this position, and his influence in the league reached a new level.
Like Curry's existence at the beginning, Tang Shuai faintly has a taste of wanting to become the first person in the new league.
However, at this time, a comment by Old Barry caused an uproar.
"Don is very stable, but he is not a really good scorer, although it is not right to judge a person with a three-year career, but the highest score of his career is only 53 points, and he has only done it in one game, a player who eats by scoring, but only with such results, he obviously cannot become the first person in the league."
