36. Two wins in a row

Why is O'Neill's dominance so inexplicable? It's because of his simple playing style, strength plus small hook hands, just these two moves, no one can defend against it, one force down ten times, this sentence also works on basketball. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Ren's strength is extremely good, but the previous Liu Ren can't use it, and Liu Ren can get 25+ in a row in the playoffs when he is not completely familiar with this body, relying on that absolutely strong strength.

Those people in the Spurs knew where Liu Ren was going to run, but they just couldn't stop the other party, Liu Ren's strength was too strong, blocking in front of him was like being hit by a car, and he could only watch the basket along the other side.

After learning about his strength advantage, Liu Ren began to use his body to play unscrupulously on the court.

It is said that James relies on his body to play ball, Liu Ren thinks this sentence is right, there is such a strong body that does not need to play tricks? Even if you play flower work, you have to have physical fitness! Jordan and Kobe Bryant don't have the physical fitness to make those distorted and picturesque moves?

Ross Barkley has said that being able to play to his physical strengths is enough to establish himself in the NBA.

If you can use your body and technique, you are a star.

The Spurs finally have a first-class Leonard with first-class physical fitness who can slightly limit Liu Ren's rampage, and the Warriors will have no way, Iguodala is one size smaller on the guard line, but not at the small forward position, Liu Ren is half a head taller than him, and his strength is also crushed, so he can only tearfully watch Liu Ren abuse the basket again and again.

When the Warriors shifted all the defensive focus to Liu Ren, D'Antoni's goal was achieved, what he is best at is to use the team's superstar containment to create opportunities for role players, and then play wave after wave of offensive climax, as for defense, it depends on the player's ability, anyway, he can force a counterattack without counterattacking.

The Lakers played well in the second half of last season because they implemented D'Antoni's style of play, no longer going to Howard, using Kobe's scoring ability to attract defense and play team offense. And Howard's style of play, if D'Antoni really wants to coach, it will be as finished as the first half of last season.

With Gasol and Green here, the Lakers' offensive coordination is very smooth, at least compared to the Warriors, who only have two backcourt singles and three-pointers, Famar, Nick Young, and Henry from the bench all have the ability to attack with the ball, and Liu Ren and Gasol do not stick to the ball, which has spent, and the Warriors whose confidence has been lost by Liu Ren have been spent.

115-100, the Lakers beat the Warriors to win two in a row.

Liu Ren scored 31 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists in this game, got the first double-double of his career, and scored and rebounded a new career high!

Gasol seems to have started to play health, playing 23 minutes and getting 11 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Whiteside who came off the bench got 9 points, 12 boards and 4 blocks, continuing to lead the block list, Green's data does not reflect the role of his tandem game, 4 points, 5 boards and 5 assists, he played the most time on the Lakers' side, Jordan Hill dunked five times after playing, got 12 points and 5 boards, this kind of offensive system that runs up and plays is great for Jordan Hill.

Antetokounmpo still didn't get a chance to play, and the playing time in the front court was divided between Liu Ren, Gasol, Green, Whiteside, Jordan Hill, and Nick Young.

……

"We're a little bloated on the inside, Mitch." D'Antoni has drawn several interior pairings, and the biggest problem is Jordan Hill.

The Lakers gave Jordan Hill a two-year contract in the summer, the biggest purpose was to rebound, and after losing Howard and Gasol a year older, they hoped that Jordan Hill could rely on his youth, energy, and physical fitness to protect the rebound.

But now the Lakers have better candidates, Whiteside has risen up from the bench and become the team's rebounding leader, Liu Ren's rebounding is also excellent, and even Green grabbing seven or eight rebounds per game is not a big problem, so Jordan Hill seems a little redundant.

But Jordan Hill's contract is there, and the Lakers have the largest contract except for Gasol on the inside.

In addition, the Lakers have a huge potential Antetokounmpo, and if they want to give Antetokounmpo playing time, they can only squeeze time out of the frontcourt.

Liu Ren and Gasol Rei can't start the forward, and the playing time must be guaranteed at least 30 minutes, Nick Young is signed by the Lakers as a super six, Green is a very important part of D'Antoni's tactics, and it is rare to get an inside line that can advance with the ball in the counterattack, so he will say that the inside line is a little bloated.

If Jordan Hill is the kind of player who gets a base salary and is bloated, the point is that his contract is 1 million higher than the middle class, and he even has the strength to start on a weaker team on the inside, which is embarrassing.

Jordan Hill has no ability to respond, his defense is average, he can protect rebounds, his biggest role is to rebound in the front and back courts, and his ability to attack the basket is excellent.

But these abilities overlapped with Whiteside's.

That's not the biggest problem, the biggest problem is that Jordan Hill is on the court, and the Lakers have to put two of the three Gasol, Green, and Liu Ren on the court, otherwise the smooth offense will be gone. Jordan Hill's blocking ability is average, and his running without the ball is not very good, the most important thing is his height, his style of play is only two meters and eight meters tall, and he has no ability to hold the ball.

He has no other choice but to attack in the air or in the second attack, relying on his random mid-range shots? Even D'Antoni, a bold coach, wouldn't dare play like that, and now the Lakers don't look like it's time to mess around.

"Mike, you mean Jordan?" Kupchak said with a wry smile, "How do I know that Liu's vision is so vicious, Hassan's instant combat power and Giannis's talent are too good, I can't believe that we got the two of them at almost no cost, and the summer king wanted to sign with me first and then exchange, I didn't agree at the time, and now it seems that it was a bit of a mistake." ”

"Mitch, I think we should solve this problem as soon as possible, not until the season is deeper, either send Giannis away, or send Jordan away, let the lineup stabilize, and wait for Kobe Bryant to come back and hit the playoffs." D'Antoni said firmly.

"You just said that you want to trade Jordan away, and you are willing to give up Giannis as a potential stock?" Kupchak said angrily.

"Mickey, you decided, I didn't say anything."

“……”

Management also likes to take things lightly, and the two began to discuss these things after Antetokounmpo's brief playing time in the preseason.

After both men decided who they were going to send away, Kupchak began to contact teams that were interested in Jordan Hill.
