Tony Allen was once an old rival for the Lakers.

He started his career with the Celtics and was once a good defender of Kobe Bryant.

Although he is not tall enough, he really has nothing to say about the defense of the outside players.

Even a center-height outside attacker like Kevin Durant.

Tony Allen can do a good job of defending.

Durant has said Allen is one of the toughest defenders he's ever faced.

Arun is 34 years old this year, and his condition is naturally not as good as it was at his peak.

However, after coming to the Lakers, he still greatly improved the Lakers' poor backcourt defense.

One directs traffic is enough, and there is a big colander and a stunned blue.

The Lakers are stabbed most of the time in the backcourt.

Well, now old Aaron has become an eye-catching martyr.

When Paul scored back-to-back points.

Scott takes advantage of the dead ball.

Let Aaron come on and replace Lowe.

Louwe's mission is done.

Allen came on the court, and the Lakers switched offense and defense in the backcourt.

Now the burden of offense is back on the inside.

And the backcourt is mainly for defense.

To say that there is still a bit of affection between Aaron and Paul.

13 years when Allen was still a Grizzlies.

A game between the Clippers and the Grizzlies.

Paul broke through the basket and Allen came over to help defend.

As a result, the leg raised was a kick to Paul.

Kicked directly in Paul's face, the ball Allen was ejected straight from the field.

At that time, the commentary at the scene said, "Aaron is playing with kung fu." ”

Now, three years have passed.

After the game, Allen also said that he didn't mean it.

But the smell of gunpowder between the Grizzlies and the Clippers is indispensable.

And Allen came to the Lakers, the Clippers' big brother in the same city.

Then the topic is even more sufficient.

Paul was not afraid of Aaron.

Allen's defense is that kind of kraft candy style.

Tight, oppressive, high confrontation, not out of place.

This kind of defense works well against those solo scorers.

For example, Durant.

Durant is much taller than Allen.

But Allen didn't want to block and interfere with Durant at all.

Because he can't reach it no matter how much he jumps.

He took advantage of the lower set to prevent Durant from receiving the ball.

Make it uncomfortable for Durant to dribble and get off the ball.

Disrupt Durant's offensive rhythm.

In the end, the shot was affected, and the hit rate was not high.

But against a short point guard like Paul.

This style of defense doesn't work so well.

Paul is a strong passer and a steady dribble.

It is easy to slip away.

At the same time, Paul's projection ability makes you dare not go too far from him.

In short, dealing with Paul was not an easy task.

Aaron tried his best to stick to Paul and confront him.

But the effect is mediocre.

Paul coped well.

He first blocked Griffin.

A ground-hitting pass to Griffin.

The griffin catches the ball and soars into the air, and he slams it with one hand!

Then, Paul used the rhythm again, double cover in the high post.

After hitting the basket, give little Jordan an aerial relay!

Little Jordan's one-handed violent smashing of the basket!

The Clippers fans at the scene finally raised their eyebrows.

The name of the city of empty connections is not for nothing.

The Clippers continued to chase points.

Narrowed the Lakers' lead.

Paul pointed at Aaron and said, "It was a mistake for you to defend me, I don't eat that, I play with my brain!" ”

In Paul's view, Aaron's mad dog type of defense.

It's a reckless way of playing, so he's not afraid.

Aaron was so angry that he didn't speak, and wondered if he should find an opportunity to give Paul another kick.

It's the Lakers' turn to attack the round.

Randolph asks for the ball again under the basket.

Wang Shuang is on the left side and Randolph is linked.

Score, hit.

Wang Shuang suddenly threw a high pass to the basket.

Hibbert leaps high and catches the ball.

Then face Griffin and get a one-handed split!

If this ball is replaced by Jordan Jr., it must be an aerial relay dunk.

Hibbert, on the other hand, could only catch the ball and then dunk.

Again, if this ball defends Hibbert it is Jordan Jr.

With Hibbert's butter hand, it is estimated that he will not score a layup.

Fortunately, it was the Tyrannosaurus rex Griffin who defended Hibbert.

In the absence of ample jumping space, Griffin's under-the-basket basket guard is really not good.

was seized by Hibbert and deducted one.

Wang Shuang's pass can be said to be very hidden.

All eyes were on Randolph.

I thought that after inside-out, it would be uploaded to Randolph's hand.

Who knew that Wang Shuang had discovered the opportunity of the weak-sided Hibbert.

Take advantage of Griffin's short arms -- >>

Characteristic, passed a high throw to score.

Scott looked at Wang Shuang's pass.

I thought: "Wang Shuang's passing is really getting more and more aura, he is really a genius?" ”

But the Clippers immediately returned to color.

They launched a quick counterattack.

Paul dribbles quickly across the halfcourt.

Attract the Lakers three-point defense and give the ball to Redick who rushes to the bottom corner.

Redick catches the ball and makes a three-point shot.

Hit!

The NCAA's top scorer still lives up to his name.

Except for the playoffs and soft crunch times.

In regulation time, his three-pointers were quite impressive.

The point difference is narrowing even further.

The Lakers are still the offense of Randolph in the low post.

In the absence of Kobe.

Randolph became the Lakers' main tactical initiator.

It is still Wang Shuang's cooperation with Randolph on the left side.

Score, hit.

It's exactly the same as before.

But this time, Wang Shuang did not pass the ball again.

Instead, choose to shoot your own cold arrows!

Chose a jump shot in the middle distance!

It's not a great option.

Wesley Johnson, who defended the king's double, blocked it.

Wang Shuang is not Kobe Bryant, and he doesn't have such a strong shooting ability.

The ball hit the basket and didn't bounce off.

But Wang Shuangqiang couldn't vote.

He can pick up rebounds!

"My rebound!"

As soon as Wang Shuang made a shot, he knew that the goal was not expected to be scored.

If the force is small, it will definitely bounce back.

So after the shot, he didn't stand still and pretend to force his hand.

Instead, he rushed to the basket as soon as possible.

Just as the ball flew back into his hands!

Then he took advantage of the trend and threw a throw!

Hit the board!

Nice self-throwing!

"Throw yourself and grab it, beautiful! This kid has an unusual sensitivity to the ball. Such sensitivity, I will say so, I have seen it in Moses. ”

Barkley saw Wang Shuang grab the rebound in the front court and make a basket.

I can't help but think of my big brother who used to be in the 76ers.

The NBA's god of frontcourt rebounding, Moses Malone.

This one seems slow, but it's actually lightning fast.

He has a shark's bloodthirsty sense of smell for frontcourt rebounds.

It was from him that Barkley learned a lot of rebounding skills.

Wang Shuang is now a frontcourt rebound collector.

Three or four per game, and it feels like he hasn't tried his best to grab it.

If you try your best to grab it, it is estimated that it will be more.

Paul saw that Wang Shuang would play tricks.

I thought to myself: "This guy has a lot of tricks, give him some color." ”

Saying that, when Paul was attacking, he began to call Wesley Johnson's pick-and-roll.

After blocking and dismantling the cover, it was originally not changed.

But Wang Shuang took advantage of the situation and pushed Alun.

Shoved him to Wesley Johnson.

"Replace me."

Wang Shuang is out of place, and Paul is one-on-one.

Paul was in a state of interest.

One-to-one, right?

Play with you.

He began to dribble under his crotch and began to slow down.

At this moment, Wang Shuang heard the ringing of the Falling Soul Bell!

Paul's hand was at a standstill.

Wang Shuang knows that this is an opportunity and must not be missed!

He immediately took action and reached out to cut off the ball in Paul's hand!

But Paul reacted very quickly.

As soon as the ball dropped, he immediately turned around and hugged it.

The two collided and fell to the ground!

Four arms, four hands, hugging a ball!

The two fell to the ground, and neither of them would let go.

Paul tried to call a timeout, but couldn't get his hands out.

The referee awarded the scrum.

The two of them got up, but neither of them would let go.

"Release the boy, let go." Paul spoke to the king.

"Why didn't you let go first?" Wang Shuangcai didn't want to.

Although the referee has already awarded the scrum.

But no one will give in to this kind of fight.

The game is more than just a battle of technique and tactics.

It is also a duel of will and morale.

The side that gives in is likely to lose.

Neither of them will let go, and even a conflict will occur.

The referee hurriedly came over and snatched the ball from the arms of the two.

Then stand in the free throw ring and scramble for the ball.

Wang Shuanggao Paul is a big cut.

There was no suspense in the scrum.

Paul didn't even jump.

Wang Shuang tossed the ball to his teammates.

The Lakers' ball possession.

The ball amounted to a successful tackle.

After succeeding, Wang Shuang did not forget to say to Paul: "Why don't you jump?" How do you know if you can succeed if you don't work hard? Isn't it? ”
