Chapter 59: One and a Half Days

Min Congda is very anxious for the Lakers' backline, and he thinks the Lakers should let Kobe Bryant play early.

If Kobe Bryant can't play, the Lakers' backcourt may be in danger.

"Although Curry is someone I don't like, these Lakers guards are obviously worse!"

In Min Congda's thoughts, Curry belongs to the lottery area, and the worst of the top picks is likely to become a parallel import.

However, after the observation of the summer league and preseason, Min Congda believes that Curry should not be too watery, and he is still qualified to be a smart starting point guard.

And the small guards of the Lakers are all functional players with little talent, and none of them have the ability to attack independently.

Curry's defense, on the other hand, is limited by talent and struggles against offensive small guards.

If no one on the other side can consume Curry on the offensive end, Curry will play more comfortably and be able to organize and shoot normally.

"It's too comfortable to let Curry play like this, only Kobe can give him strength at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, that monk, replace Kobe Bryant, change it."

Phil Jackson is nicknamed the Zen master, and Min Congda directly called him a monk, hoping that the monk could adjust in time and use Kobe Bryant to suppress Curry.

Unexpectedly, at the end of the short timeout, Jackson did not replace Kobe, but continued to keep Jordan Farmar on the court, obviously he wanted Kobe to rest more, and it was impossible to replace Kobe Bryant in advance because of a Curry.

Min Congda clenched his fists, and scolded in his heart that the monk didn't understand the ball, leaving Kobe Bryant to sit on the bench and lay eggs?

Back on the court, Curry saw that Kobe Bryant was still sitting on the court, and he wanted to talk about it, but after thinking about it, forget it, why provoke him, don't be boring.

The game continued, the Lakers' second lineup lacked a core point, and the Lakers' sixth man was originally Odom, but Odom was the starting power forward tonight.

Jackson lined up a CBA-style lineup of Mbembenga, Famar, Vujasic, Wharton and Powell, and the offense had no center of gravity at all, low post, breakaways, singles, nothing.

The timeout didn't make a difference to the Lakers' offense, with the ball passing around from the outside and no good offensive opportunities.

In the end, it was Jordan Famar who held the ball and forced Curry!

"That's right, rush to the basket...... Ouch, what are you doing to the basket? ”

Min Congda was very happy to see Farmar beating Curry, and felt that this kid had found a weakness on the defensive end of the Clippers.

Who knew that Famar's breakthrough speed was not enough to pass Curry, but the layup was slapped by Marcus Camby.

Camby, though no longer the brave man he once was, is the man who once best defensive player, a man who made Tim Duncan avoid his edge and dare not enter the draft.

Famar's mediocre breakthrough with speed and explosiveness, isn't that looking for a hat?

Once again, it was the Clippers' turn to attack, and Curry held the ball over half court, and the Lakers' defense of him changed tactically.

The man who marked him changed from Famar to Vujasic, who followed from the front and followed all the way through the half.

Jackson had just focused on his defense during a short timeout, reminding Vujacic to put Curry up and disrupt his game.

Curry dribbled solidly and was undisturbed by Vujasic's tight counter-pressing, and Camby stepped forward again to cover.

Vujacic stuck very close, and kept shouting: "He handed it over to me!" He handed it over to me! I won't let him pass! ”

Vujacic was the 27th pick in the first round, and as a European player, he relied not on offense but defense to gain a foothold with the Lakers, which is relatively rare among European players.

His Mad Dog style of defense at all costs earned the trust of head coach Jackson, and in Phil Jackson's triangle offensive system, the point guard does just that, and it is OK to shoot a few three-pointers by the way.

What organization, breakthrough, singles, you don't need to come, someone will do it well.

Facing Curry, a baby-faced champion, Vujacic, as an old-timer, wanted to teach the newcomer a little lesson.

But Curry is very stable in protecting the ball, and he still controls the ball well under strong confrontation, and at the same time, his eyes are observing, and Camby comes to cover, and he decides to use the block to break through the Lakers' middle defense.

"Okay, Curry go block and dismantle, here's a trap, go block and dismantle!"

Min Congda sat in the front row, and the situation on the court was very clear, Camby came to block and cover, and he saw Mbenga's small position and knew that the Lakers were going to set up a defensive trap for this ball.

Sure enough, after Curry and Camby blocked and covered, Mbenga and Vujacic surrounded Curry!

With a ferocious pinch attack, Curry was caught off guard, almost lost the ball, had to hold the ball, and fell into a dead-ball state.

"Oops, got caught in the bag, to Camby? No, Camby doesn't have a mid-range, give Davis at the far end! ”

Curry chose to jump up and pass to Davis on the weak side, but the pass was spotted by the Lakers players.

Luke Wharton broke the ball, the Lakers launched a counterattack, Vujacic rushed in front, received a pass from Wharton and rushed to the basket for a layup!

"I said, just give him to me! I can handle it! ”

After the goal, Vujacic shouted at Curry.

Curry replied, "You didn't do it, your teammates flanked with you." ”

Vujacic leaned over and said, "Welcome to the NBA kid, just now Kobe Bryant asked me to give you a welcome ceremony when he was taking a timeout." I said I could do it myself, but you believed it? You're still young. ”

All this, Min Congda saw clearly on the sidelines, "If I had hit that ball just now, I wouldn't have blocked it, it's obviously a trap." ”

If Curry hears Min Congda's thoughts, he will definitely ask, why is it obviously a trap, where is it obvious? Why can't I see it?

In fact, not only Curry can't see it, but most NBA players can't see it in the face of such a situation, and they don't know how to deal with it when they fall into the trap.

Only a handful of talented superstars, geniuses with a keen sense of smell on the offensive end, and experienced veterans can see through the implied killing of this defensive formation at a glance.

Min Congda easily saw through it, and he thought that a person could know it.

After all, he has only been in contact with basketball for three months, and he has watched no more than 10 games on the spot, and he has only taken a general look at the relevant articles and materials, and has had some brief exchanges with the coach, and that's it.

He can see it like this, but he can't see it when he was a kid?

In addition to basketball, Min also developed a keen interest in NFL football games for more than two months in the offseason. From August to February of the following year is the NFL season, and Min Congda watches live football when he has nothing to do at home.

Rugby tactics are much more complex than basketball, basketball can turn the situation on the court by individual ability, and rugby is absolutely impossible to score and win without playing tactics.

There are tens of thousands of tactics of all kinds, and ordinary fans have to watch the rules for a long time, let alone understand tactics.

Min Congda spent about 15 games watching time to understand the basic ideas of rugby tactics and have a deeper understanding.

And to reach the same level of understanding, watching basketball, Min Congda only used one and a half games.

"Curry's brain is not good, he really doesn't have any talent, I can't see this kind of defensive trap, I feel it after watching a few games."

Min Congda is once again convinced that Curry's talent is not good, and he is not a top talent.
