basketball purple front

Chapter 401 Blood spilled in Brooklyn (final)

In the past, he always played as a substitute, so it was rare for him to face up frequently with starters, but tonight, he will directly face an All-Star player.Although it may be a relatively watery All-Star insider, no matter how watery it is, it is still at the level of an All-Star.

Under normal circumstances, Tang Qian doesn't guarantee that he can defend his opponent. Do you really think it's so easy to average close to 20 points per game?Looking at the current NBA center position, how many can really achieve this data?Howard has lost this ability due to injuries.You can say that Brook Lopez's rebounding ability is not good, you can say that his defense is not particularly strong, but you must not question the offensive level of No. 11 of the Nets.

Because in Tang Qian's future memory, this guy is not the kind of "fast food person" who "gets discouraged" every season.For seven or eight consecutive seasons, he has been able to average points per game at this level, so his offensive end is already very strong.Coupled with tonight, there is also an explosive bonus, that feeling makes Tang Qian a little at a loss.

But still the same sentence, whether you can beat it is a matter of ability, and whether you dare to fight is a matter of attitude. Besides, Tang Qian still left himself a way out.The few silver cards in his "Different Dimension" are not just for show.It's just that it's still early, so he really wants to test his current defensive level.

What is the point.

The Nets served the ball, and Joe Johnson shot a three-pointer from the bottom corner. Unfortunately, the strength was a little lacking, and the basketball hit the right side of the basket.

"Grab a rebound!!!"

Joe Johnson didn't feel very good as soon as he made a shot, so he immediately reminded him loudly.

The area where the basketball bounced off happened to be the area that Tang Qian was in charge of, so there was no accident. He and the Nets' No. 11 competed together in an instant.However, this time, Brook Lopez didn't take advantage of it, because his rebounding ability, ahem, how should I put it, is really at the mid-lower level of a 7-footer.As an All-Star main center who averages more than 30 minutes per game, but averages less than 7+ rebounds per game, this is a bit shabby no matter how you look at it.Tang Qian wanted to deal with him now, it was easier than eating and drinking.

He didn't need too many positioning skills at all, just relying on his ability to win this defensive rebound.

There's nothing the Nets can do about No. 11.

It seems...his rebounding state didn't explode along with it.

Defensively, too, it seems.

So... that is, the pure offensive broke out.

That's okay, it's not too deceitful to be considered a "different space".

The Lakers Kobe Bryant ran without the ball, Duang~, but failed to hit the basket.

"Protect the rebound!!!"

The head coach of the Nets stood on the sidelines and shouted loudly.

But it's just an egg, because Tang Qian suppressed Brook Lopez again and got the rebound.

After passing the ball, Gasol puts a half-hook into the basket, swipes~, and makes a hit.

Tang Qian also added an assist stat to his stat column.

hateful!Didn't even grab a defensive rebound from him?What a shame! ! !

Brooke Lopez looked at Tang Qian's eyes and became more and more upset.

Tang Qian saw the other party's gaze, opened his mouth and said, "Are you upset?"

"Nonsense!" Brooke Lopez immediately replied.

"That's right." Tang Qian said: "Because I just want to make you unhappy, and I will only be happy if you are upset, understand?"

After finishing speaking, Tang Qian turned around and returned to defense, leaving only Brook Lopez soaring with anger. Looking at the number 29 on the back, he wished he could fly up and kick him.He looked up at one part of the field, and said in his heart: Mr. Mikhail Prokhorov is also watching the game in the SVIP private room tonight, so I must perform well!I have to perform well!

Asian guy, don't you try to stop me from shining! ! !

But Brook Lopez failed to find a chance to "teach" Tang Qian for several rounds, because professional basketball games are not 2K games after all, and it is impossible for all the balls to be concentrated on one person.During this period of time, the outside lines of the two sides were fighting each other.Obviously, after the introduction of Joe Johnson at a high price, the entire guard line of the Nets became taller in an instant.He and Deron, the two all-star outsiders who were playing in their prime, no matter how they don't have a tacit understanding, they are better than the Lakers' aging guard.At least on the offensive end, that's no problem at all.

No matter how hard Kobe defends, he can only guard one. What about the other one?No matter who it is, they can find a lot of easy shots on Nash's head.Nash this season has really aged completely, especially on the defensive end. From the previous average level of the league, it has directly become an existence similar to a "defensive loophole".This is not black Nash, but he is really too old. With a 38-year-old body, the defensive end has gradually been unable to keep up with the intensity and rhythm of the NBA.

But if he couldn't get the ball, the Nets' No. 11 was restrained everywhere. The defense couldn't defend against Tang Qian, and he couldn't grab Tang Qian's rebounds. So after playing for a few minutes, he felt aggrieved instead.You ask why the defense can't prevent Tang Qian?Anyway, this season is also Brook Lopez's peak defensive season, averaging 2+ blocks per game, it's not fake.

That's right, this season is indeed Brook Lopez's peak defensive season. His average blocks per game have also reached 2+ for the first time, and he has a tonnage and a solid chassis, so both top defense and single defense are not bad, and he can even Barely considered quasi-first-class.Logically speaking, Tang Qian should not be able to impress him at all.But pay attention to see clearly that the number of blocked shots for inside players is mainly a reflection of the ability to protect the basket in the defensive ability, and the ability to protect the basket is an item of defensive ability, but it is not completely equivalent to defensive ability.This can be referred to the "Flash" Wade on the outside, and the number of blocked shots on the back line. Except for Jordan, he is worthy of everyone, but what?This means that his defensive ability is second only to Jordan's existence on the back line?Facts have proved that Wade's defense has never been favored by professionals. There are only 3 All-Defensive Teams in his career, and they are all second teams, which shows the problem.You must know that the best defensive team was voted by the head coaches of NBA teams before 2014, let alone they don't understand the ball.And it’s still the same old joke, the best defensive team is the same as the best team, there is no small position on the back line, for example, the first defense in the 01-02 season was PG Kidd + PG Payton, and the first defense in the next year was SG Kobe + SG Christie, and the next year is SG Kobe + SG Bowen (in fact, Bowen was selected as a striker most of the time, but this year he replaced the G position, why? Look at the other Three people, Garnett, Ben Wallace, Ci Shiping, you can't say that Ci Shiping, who was Artest that year, played G?).Therefore, the number of blocked shots does not represent everything. With Tang Qian's current offensive ability, he can't handle his opponent in singles, but Brook Lopez, in addition to single defense and top defense, assist defense and supplementary defense are all "killing" rhythms.That's why Tang Qian can make him unable to defend himself.

After all, off-ball cuts and pick-and-roll runs basically do not belong to the category of single defense and top defense, and the Lakers have Nash to deliver shells to him, so Tang Qian's offensive ability has been virtually magnified a lot.That's why No. 11 of the Nets feels so unhappy.

But soon, he found his opportunity, because with the decline of outside shooting touch, the basketball returned to his palm again.

Well, as long as you blow him up on the offensive end, that's it!

Lopez made a gesture to open the singles, and then the teammates of the Nets all opened up, helping Bruce Lopez clear a low space without interference.This is a very common inside single-player offensive tactic, which flourished in the 90s, but since Yao Ming and O'Neal retired, the shots of big centers using this offensive tactic have decreased by more than 80% in an instant.Because the current centers are not true centers in the traditional sense, or classical centers. Compared with low-post singles, they are better at second offense, pick-and-roll rolls and dunks.Even the current Tang Qian does not belong to this category. His current offensive method is also a "new type of inside offensive method" that has only become popular in the new century.But Brook Lopez is one of the heirs of this faction, so this is why O'Neal will say this season that he is the real No. [-] center in the NBA.

Coupled with the fact that his offensive state is on the verge of breaking out tonight, it puts a lot of pressure on Tang Qian's single defense.

But this ball Tang Qian is not going to use the ability card to solve the problem, because this is the best test stage, the test stage he vaguely hopes to try.

"Now it's time for a one-on-one offensive and defensive insider. Our No. 11 will single out the Lakers' No. 29. Jim, what do you think?" Ryan Rick, the Nets' on-site commentator, turned his head and asked. "Does it need to be said? Among other things, Brook's individual ability at the basket is definitely second to none among the 5th positions in the league. It is not easy to handle this Eastern center?" Jim Spannak, another on-site commentator Earl replied.

"Haha~ I think so too~ This oriental guy thinks highly of himself~" Ryan Rick nodded in agreement.

In a word, both of them believed that Tang Qian was overestimating his capabilities and hitting a stone with an egg.

Indeed, from the first time Brook Lopez started, Tang Qian felt the difference. This mixed-race white man from North Hollywood, California, has a strong low-post attack, very strong, stronger than he imagined.But Tang Qian didn't intend to give in, because the stronger the opponent, the more he could test his own strength and potential.And his approach has also been unanimously approved by the old-school players.

For example, Kobe, such as Nash, they all like this kind of players who are not afraid of challenges.

Most of the young players nowadays play too politely and politely, which makes them always feel like something is missing.

But No. 29 is different. Although there is an obvious gap in strength, he has no intention of backing down at all, and has been confronting his opponent head-on.But obviously, Tang Qian's current single-defense strength is still a bit weak, not enough to fight against Brook Lopez, who weighs 275 pounds and has a stable scoring average of 20+ per game all year round.

This guy, when he hit back, actually had a fake move?It's really a strength that can only be felt close to one-on-one!

Tang Qian was fully focused, because the 7-foot center in front of him was one of the only remaining low-post proficient 5s in the league, so he had to respond 100% mentally.

Has entered the restricted area, what will he do?keep going?Turn left?Turn right?Or half turn around and break through for a layup?
Don't look at Tang Qian's blocks are among the best in the league, but most of them are due to supplementary defense and basket protection. In fact, one-on-one single defense tests the complete personal single defense ability.As soon as Tang Qian came, he faced Brook Lopez, who was in an explosive state of attack, and it was extremely difficult.In this feeling, you didn't play in person, so you can't empathize with it at all.

Well, turn around!It's a hook move!
Um?No, this is a fake move, this is a fake move to deceive yourself!
Seeing that No. 29 of the Lakers was not deceived, Brook Lopez was not annoyed, because this was only the first step of his low post-up singles, and there were still many tricks and tricks behind.Once again, Tang Qian suffered a tonnage loss. Although he has gained a lot of weight this season compared to last season, it is still not enough. 258 pounds is still a bit thin for a 7-footer.But Tang Qian's real age is only 19 years old, not to mention the yellow race, even the big old black is at the stage of emaciation, so what he lacks now is only time.

Turn right?Tang Qian slid immediately, but just after going out, Lopez withdrew his foot, then turned back, raised his hand to shoot.All of a sudden, he and Tang Qian had widened the space gap by more than half a body.

Don't think about shooting so easily, my defense is not over yet.

Seeing that the opponent was about to make a move, Tang Qian forced a kick on the ground, and then relying on his super physical fitness, he jumped up suddenly. With his long arms stretched out, he immediately made up half of the gap between him and his opponent.But Tang Qian never expected that this was still a fake move. After cheating himself, the Nets 11 turned to one side of their body, avoided the defense, and took off to shoot.

brush~
Basketball hollow goal.

"You can't!" After scoring the goal, Brook Lopez sneered at Tang Qian, then swaggered and ran back to his own half.

However, he didn't expect that Tang Qian didn't get angry at all, or rather, he didn't have time to hear clearly at all.Because his whole mind was focused on the defensive ball just now.I did so many feints in a row, it’s amazing, my footsteps are also very deceptive, I have full control over the force and impact, I have great control over the time difference, and the moment when I make the last shot is very soft... However, I am not completely If you can't defend yourself, as long as you do it a few more times, you should be able to find the feeling.

Lopez scored his 15th point.

The Lakers Kobe broke through and scored, and Gasol hit the board low and netted.

The Nets gave Lopez another one-on-one single against Tang Qian. After a series of actions, the former hit the shot again.

Swipe ~ personal 17th point.

However, careful people can find that Lopez's successful shot this time is obviously much more difficult than the previous one.

The Lakers Nash missed a three-pointer, and the Nets took a defensive rebound and gave it to Lopez.

Brook Lopez continued to fight Tang Qian in singles. This time, the former himself felt that it was difficult, because the opponent's physical agility and moving speed were far beyond his imagination, as if he was not a 7-foot big man at all. .So he made several low-position fake moves, shaking away Tang Qian, but was quickly replaced by the opponent. This is the advantage of physical fitness. Inexperienced, the body comes together.In the end, Lopez barely made the ball with a forced hook.

It's a real reluctance, because the rhythm and way of shooting the ball are beyond the usual No. 11 of the Nets. If it weren't for his excellent offensive state and good touch tonight, it would be very difficult to get in in the end. speak.All in all, Brook Lopez's ease and ease in the singles process have disappeared.

This Asian guy really has a set, if it wasn't for his good form tonight... Huh, but it doesn't matter, anyway, as long as he can score, that's enough, that's a good shot!Brook Lopez made a provocative move towards Tang Qian, but because it was the home court of the Nets, the referees chose to turn a blind eye.

At the end of the entire second quarter, Tang Qian was playing one-on-one with Lopez. He only defended one of the five goals, and it was the reason why the opponent missed his shot.5 points, 21 rebounds, 4 block and 1 assist in the half are the halftime performance data of the "League No. 1 Center".To some extent, Tang Qian's defense failed.

However, he himself didn't feel much frustration, because he could clearly feel that his defensive crystal brick was about to break through.Once you break through to 7 yuan, you will definitely have a qualitative leap in your defensive ability.The defensive level, which has been stagnant for so long, can finally make great progress and go a step further.

So there's a reason he wasn't too upset.

Tonight, facing All-Star center Brook Lopez may be an opportunity for him to break through the defensive level.

In the locker room, Nash also comforted Tang Qian a few times, but the latter didn't pay much attention at all, because now he just wants to play quickly and play quickly.The half-time break passed quickly, and in the third quarter, as usual, the two sides will send their full main lineup to face off.So Tang Qian didn't have to wait long before he had another opportunity to challenge Brook Lopez.

This oriental boy, hasn't he been scared by himself?It's really good... a heart that can withstand beatings!

In this case, I am not welcome!Under the eyes of Mr. Mikhail Prokhorov tonight, I will definitely shine and play a highlight performance!Oriental guy, if you want to blame, blame you for catching up with bad luck! ! !

Seeing that the Nets had turned into a low post play again, Steve Nash said to Kobe, "Bryant, do you want to help?" "Help?" Kobe glanced at No. 29 and shook his head. : "No, it's not that time yet, don't worry."

Not in a hurry?Need not?Nash was stunned for a moment, and then his mind quickly realized that this was the time and opportunity for Kobe to "pay tuition" for the No. 29.Because NBA players, especially young NBA players, have room for growth, and generally speaking, the more "tuition fees" you give in the early stage, the more likely you will realize your potential in the later stage.Don't think that talent is the most important criterion. Even if you are a genius, you are the top three in the draft, then if I don't give you enough playing time, and don't give you enough opportunities to "pay tuition", you are doomed Abolish it and become a generation of big parallel importers.This rule applies to any player in the NBA, because potential is not immediate combat power, and it takes time to realize it slowly. If you don't "pay tuition", I'm sorry, even if you are James or even Jordan, it is useless. In the end Definitely become an ordinary generation, disappearing from everyone.

There are too many examples of this in the history of the NBA.

As we all know, Kobe is an impatient person, but he is willing to give the 29th the time and opportunity to "pay tuition".What does this mean?This means that this young No. 29 has entered Kobe's vision.

Otherwise, even if he was born in the "Little Green House", Kobe might not have looked at him more.

It's just... the patience of the black mamba is extremely limited. If this No. 29 can't grow up quickly, then the "tuition fee" may be paid.

Do you have the potential?Do you have the ability?
Nash looked towards the low side of the penalty area and asked silently in his heart.

brush~
Tang Qian failed to defend the ball again, but Lopez scored the ball, but it was a bit of luck, because the turnaround shot hit the top of the backboard before falling into the basket.This kind of ball is afraid that it is difficult to get 100 out of 1. Brook Lopez did it tonight.

After he saw the basketball hit the net, he felt extremely lucky.

Good luck, how long will it last?

The Lakers missed a shot, Tang Qian grabbed the offensive rebound, and then went straight up, staged a two-handed slam dunk on Brook Lopez's head.This angered the Nets' No. 11, so as soon as he arrived at the Lakers' half court, he began to take the initiative to get the ball.

However, this time, Brook Lopez encountered trouble, because Tang Qian, who felt better and better in single defense, became extremely difficult to deal with. No matter how he made fake moves, he could not completely get rid of his opponent.

Damn it, since this is the case, I will crush you forcibly and let you know what is called real low-order single eating!
"Brooke forcibly took the top position. This time he didn't have any skills, he just pushed hard."

"No. 29 of the Lakers is trying to defend. Oh, the effect seems to be pretty good. Although Brook pushed him, but it is very limited, not enough to get a particularly comfortable shooting space and position!"

"No, no more hesitation, it will be more than three seconds soon!"

"Brooke Lopez forcibly turned around and shot, and the basketball could go in... oh~ no, his shot was strongly interfered by the opponent this time. Although he was not blocked, the basketball also deviated from the original track!"

Under the commentary of the Nets' on-site commentator Ryan Rick, Tang Qian finally defended Brook Lopez in a low single in a real sense.The Lakers attack, and Kobe leans back and hits the net at mid-range.Turning his head around, Lopez continued to ask for the ball to attack in the low post, but when ~, he missed another shot because Tang Qian was not thrown away at all.

The Lakers took the opportunity to score another goal, and Gasol scored with an inside hook.

Brook Lopez came again, this time it was even more unlucky, he was directly blocked by Tang Qian's cap, and the basketball flew out of the baseline.

It’s still a little bit closer, I’m still a little bit closer to breaking through, I’ve already felt that layer of film, just add a little more... After Tang Qian blocked the ball from Lopez, he didn’t look at the opponent at all, Because all his mind was immersed in the defensive crystal brick that was about to break through.But Brook Lopez didn't know the reason, he thought it was Tang Qian's silent contempt and silent ridicule.Immediately, his eyes were on fire, looking at the other party, almost boiling.

The damn Oriental!Do you really think you can defend my low post singles?Go live your daydreams! ! !
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit...

Serving from the baseline, Brook Lopez actually made a strong low post, ready to go sideways and hit the net with a big hook.

But with a "snap", his wish was shattered, and Tang Qian once again blocked his low attack.

No, no, this kind of ball is not strong enough, not strong enough!

Taking advantage of the time when the Nets sent the baseline ball again, Tang Qian suddenly blurted out: "Hey, Big Bai, can you be more serious, isn't the attack just now too childish? Can you show some real skills?" Come out? Can you please show some real skills???"

Since Tang Qian had other things on his mind, he didn't have time to lower the volume. The volume of the voice was enough for more than half of the players present to hear it clearly.At this moment, Brooke Lopez blushed instantly, and then became jealous.

It was an expression of rage, and he seemed to be in disbelief that No. 29 of the Lakers, who hadn't said a word just now, had such a broken mouth.

Fuck, bastard thing! ! !I make you arrogant! ! !I make you look down on me! ! !

Die for me! ! !
Just when Tang Qian was putting up his defense seriously, his eyes suddenly went dark, and with a "boom", his eyes immediately became starry.

Then Brook Lopez took advantage of the low position to catch the ball, dunked into the basket vigorously with both hands.

boom! ! !
He scored his 25th point of the night.
