Chapter 186: Half Time Ends
"James and I are both deflated by this guy." Somehow, the first thought that came to Wade's mind turned out to be this thought.
It is said that the players' uniforms are old, like Jordan and Kobe, no matter how strong they are, after they are over thirty, their state will always get worse and worse, at this time, the players have to endure that they can't play at their original level, and endure the players who are just juniors in their eyes on the court, and they can only watch.
Jordan is very smart, when he was at his peak, he won six championships, and then retired decisively, leaving no regrets, but he is also very stupid, he still can't bear to watch juniors like Kobe Bryant and Iverson surpass themselves in fame and become the darling of the league, so Jordan, who is over 38 years old, will choose to make a comeback in the Wizards, and the result is naturally unknown, although Joe can still contribute an average of 20 points per game in the Wizards, but he is no longer the basketball god of the year.
Of course, this feeling is only felt when the players are old. Wade, who debuted in 03, has always thought that even if he wants to serve old age, he must be at least thirty-three or fourteen years old, but Wang Meng, who has only been debuting for two years, has given him a feeling that he is already old, and he has never been a rookie who has achieved Wang Meng's level.
In order to save physical strength, Wang Meng did not choose to dunk, but to make a layup, after all, there is still a long time in the game, although the dunk is very morale-boosting, but it can save a little more physical strength, which is more useful at the last critical moment.
Wang Meng just got up, his hand rose out, and he immediately felt a strong wind behind him, and he didn't look at it, Wang Meng knew that this was definitely James' best behind-the-back dunk, and it was definitely very close to him.
Wang Meng did not panic, swapped the basketball in his right hand to his left hand in the air, and made a layup from the left side, just to avoid James's chasing block.
As soon as he got on the court, Wang Meng led the Hornets to five points with an assist, directly widening the score gap to 12 points.
In their impressions, the Hornets were still a team that suffered consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season, but the fact is that the Hornets have won 7 consecutive games so far, not only with a complete lineup, but also with momentum.
James has the heart to exert his strength, but Wallace's special care makes James very uncomfortable, even if he can score, the efficiency is far less than usual.
At this time, Battier stepped up as a substitute, this guy, although he has not been a particularly good player, but he can really provide a lot of help at critical times.
He first stole a pass from Wang Meng to Gasol, Wade used this pass to complete a fast attack, Wang Meng had the intention to block it, but Wade Wang Meng, who was running, really couldn't catch up.
Then Batur grabbed a three-point shot after receiving a pass from James on the baseline, Gasol forced an inside layup and missed the Heat to grab the rebound, and he held the ball and singled Thorton to score a mid-range shot, and in less than two minutes, Basil scored five points alone, chasing the score back to 8 points.
Monty was a little anxious when he saw this on the sidelines, and hurriedly yelled, "Steady, slow down, don't give them a chance to attack quickly." ”
Gasol held the ball in the low post and singled Bosh again, although he still didn't score, but he caused Bosh's foul, standing on the free throw line, Gasol used his usual inside leg to shoot, the first ball was scored, but the second did not score, Haslem won the rebound, James took Haslem's pass and wanted to break fast, but at this time the Hornets players had all returned to defense, James had to give up.
When Gasol made free throws, Monty replaced Thorton with Tony Allen, as soon as Tony Allen came on the court, Wang Meng's pressure suddenly decreased a lot, because the heavy responsibility of defending Wade was on Allen's shoulders, Wang Meng relaxed a lot at once, you know, defense always consumes more physical strength than offense.
Wang Meng, who focuses more on offense and tandem teams, plays more smoothly, correspondingly, on the offensive end, he needs to get rid of Tony Allen's defense, and on the defensive end, he has to try his best to limit Wang Meng, even if Wade is full of physical strength, he can't stand such a toss.
The remaining minutes of the second quarter went by, and when the halftime whistle blew, the score between the two sides unconsciously rose to 61; 54。
James got 18 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds in the half, and the momentum is going to go for a triple-double, while Wade's data looks slightly inferior, 13 points and 3 assists, but it is understandable to think that he takes turns to be taken care of by Wang Meng and Tony Allen.
In comparison, Wang Meng's data seems to be more beautiful than the two giants of the Heat, 16 points and 8 assists, this is the data contributed by Wang Meng at halftime, only half a year to get almost two double-double results, of course, this has a very important relationship with Wang Meng's golden finger skills, two quarters of the game, Wang Meng's average playing time is 16 minutes, three minutes can release a heart eye to calculate, Wang Meng can be used five times, plus halftime, halftime these breaks, Wang Meng can use as many as seven times, Even if the player misses two times out of seven times, he can be converted into assists five times, plus Wang Meng's usual passing awareness is very good, and it is very easy to double assists in the half.
For these Wang Meng know, but others don't know, in their eyes, Wang Meng is too good, you know, Wang Meng is just a sophomore rookie now, but now he is a stable player who can contribute an average of 20+10 per game, what is this concept? You know, the guard is not a center, and there is a big gap between brushing assists and grabbing rebounds, and there are many interior players in the league who can contribute 20+10, such as Howard of the Lakers, Griffin of the Clippers, and Kevin Love of the Timberwolves, all of whom are such players. But how many defenders are there who contribute 20+10?
Last season, Rose won the regular season MVP, and his performance was naturally unquestionable, but even so, his average data per game was only about 23+8, which was still a lot short of a double-double.
Grabbing rebounds relies on one's judgment of rebounds and one's own physical fitness, but assists are different, assists not only test their own ability, but also have great requirements for the ability of teammates, even if you pass the ball beautifully, and your teammates don't shoot it after passing to your teammates, it is not an assist.
Wang Meng is very smart, every time he opens the heart eye, he is to break into the inside line and then pass inside, relying on the metamorphosis function of the heart eye, he can easily stuff the ball into the hands of the inside player, even if the inside player feels bad, he can still get in when he raises his hand to dunk, which is also one of the important reasons for Wang Meng's high success rate of assists.
