Chapter 419 Overcoming the Clippers and Huge Events

"We saw that Tang changed his defensive strategy? He actually, he actually left the penalty area on his own initiative? What... what is he trying to do?" After seeing Tang Qian's action, Bill McDonald was slightly taken aback, because this This scene is really a bit "unconventional".Everyone knows that the center will not leave the inside and the penalty area except for defending long shots from the outside. After all, the size and height of the 5th position are too big. Standing up and marking people is simply actively magnifying their own shortcomings. disadvantage.

In the history of the NBA, there are very few people who really dare to do this.

In recent years, Kevin Garnett has this ability, but after he turned 30, he hardly did it anymore. Therefore, during the "Green Army period", Garnett did not see such a man-marking figure.But in Minnesota, there were many such shots. What does it mean to defend from position 5 to position 1?The former "Almighty Warrior" Wolf King Garnett is one of the spokespersons.

But Garnett is only 211cm tall after all, and he plays mainly at the 4th position, supplemented by the 5th position, so it is acceptable.But Tang Qian is a real 7-footer. The last one who dared to do this in the center class was Hakeem Olajuwon.Maybe "Admiral" David Robinson can do it too, but the frequency is definitely not as good as "Big Dream".As an existence that even God Joe feels faintly "feared", Olajuwon's super defensive ability is the key.In the Rockets' two consecutive championships, he almost always played the role of an "invincible line of defense". From the inside to the outside, there is nothing he dare not defend alone.Only in this way can Houston, who is not outstanding, win two consecutive championships.

Many people even say that the "big dream" of the first championship can be regarded as the real "single-core" champion since there are specific statistics in history.

Even if he is as strong as God Qiao, he is ashamed of himself at this point.

That year's playoff data, Olajuwon's five statistics, from scoring to steals, all ranked first in the team. Who would dare to dissatisfied with this kind of domineering?God Joe?Even his old man is powerless against this record.So in the face of the birth of this "big dream", if Qiao Shen does not retire to play baseball, I am afraid it will be difficult to easily win 4 consecutive championships.It's nothing else, even Olajuwon in the playoffs that year was really "flying", and the Red Bulls, he was also fearless.

But who is "Big Dream"?A super center recognized by the league, a man who even O'Neill dared to "shave his head", it's normal for him to do this, after all, his ability lies there.But you Lakers No. 29, how can you dare to learn from Olajuwon's "show off"?
So when Griffin saw this scene, he was stunned first, and then suddenly said angrily:

Marking out inside?what do you mean?Look down on me?
Although Griffin is currently a "beastist" style of play, his physical condition is still very good. Even in the 4th position, his footwork and speed are considered excellent, even superior.This also has a certain relationship with the jumping ability, because a person with a strong jumping ability cannot be weak in explosive power and slow in moving speed. If there is such a person, it must be an alien, not an earthling.So when he saw Tang Qian's defensive expansion, he couldn't help becoming a little angry.

This ball will knock you over!

"Tang actually chose to expand the defense? To me, I'm afraid this is not very wise. Because although Griffin is also an inside player, but his height is only 208MC, coupled with his physical fitness and explosive power... Griffin started Now, he is going to rely on the first step and pass Tang directly!" After half a second, Bill Macdonald said in surprise: "Follow, catch up! Tang perfectly caught up with the opponent! He didn't let the 'white monster 'The intention succeeded!"

Since he didn't get past Tang Qian in one step, Griffin immediately fell into a passive state.You must know that this season, Griffin does not yet have a stable mid-range shooting skill package. The current 10-16-foot jumper hits only about 35%.Although it is much better than the 25% of last season, it is still a "half", not open, and basically not very accurate.

So he barely shot the ball, and directly shot a "big bridge", which was rebounded by Gasol of the Lakers.

Tang Qian's defense was barely successful.

Damn it, this oriental guy, what luck!

Blake Griffin didn't realize the problem, and thought it was just that Tang Qian was lucky and just predicted the direction of his breakthrough, so he was able to keep up with his footsteps.But what is the truth?The fact is that he is not Tang Qian's opponent in the competition of speed, agility or even lateral movement.It can almost be said that, except for outside players, it is impossible for inside players to beat Tang Qian in this item. This is the tyranny of "Chamberlain's body bag".

I think that when "Dashuai Zhang" was young, he was called "Moving Mountain" in newspapers. The meaning is very simple, that is to say, although he is tall, his moving speed is not slow, or even extremely fast.Judging from the game highlights on the Internet, "Dashuai Zhang" is really a monster, with a real height of 216cm, but he can run faster than some people with 190cm and 180cm. Things happen all the time.Now, it is a "customized center" that perfectly fits the "small ball tactics".

It is worthy of being the giant track and field star of the University of Kansas back then. With a height of more than 7 feet, he can still become the overlord of the track and field.A bunch of track and field records that look terrible now, if they were not recorded in black and white, I am afraid many people would think that they are "products of superstition" of "nonsense".

Therefore, if the inside players want to compete with Tang Qian in terms of physical agility and moving speed, they are undoubtedly looking for abuse and looking for a slap in the face.

The Lakers Kobe Bryant missed a shot. Tang Qian grabbed the offensive rebound and passed it to Gasol on one side. Gasol dunked with one hand.

In the next round, Griffin was going to pass the ball again, ready to single Tang Qian.

After seeing Griffin taking the ball, Tang Qian and Gasol took the initiative to switch defensive targets, because compared to the "White Monster" Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan has almost no ability to attack independently, and Gasol Seoul's single defense is more than enough.After the former saw Tang Qian's exchange of gestures, his eyes were filled with anger again, and he thought, "Damn Oriental guy!"Don't think that you can be arrogant if you prevent me from attacking once in a while!You, Uncle Griffin, will teach you how to be a man right away!
On offense and defense again, Griffin still dribbled and broke through, but unfortunately, it was similar to the previous ball. He couldn't break through the close defense of No. 29 of the Lakers.In this situation, Griffin was shocked and angry. What surprised him was that the opponent was faster and more sensitive than himself. What made him angry was that because he lost the space to take off, he could only "shoot blindly" again. "Basketball" With a bang, the strike failed.

Fortunately, "Jordan" grabbed the offensive rebound and succeeded in the second attack. This made Griffin's singles fail, and there was no problem to magnify.

"Hot, sorry, this ball was my fault." Gasol said to Tang Qian with some annoyance.

"It's okay, Paul. It's impossible for him to grab offensive rebounds again and again. As long as he can't grab offensive rebounds, then he is no different from a backup center on the offensive end." Tang Qian shook his head, his face was not bad at all, even Indistinctly... There is still a hint of joy and excitement.

I feel it!It feels like the defensive crystal brick is about to break through!
For Tang Qian, this happened to be a problem that urgently needed to be improved, so his mood was not only not bad, but a little happy.

That damned Oriental!He actually blocked another ball from me? ? ?Damn it! ! !

When Griffin was extremely annoyed, a gentle and steady voice suddenly said in his ear: "Blake, don't fall into the opponent's defensive trap. There are a thousand ways to defeat your opponent on the basketball court. You don't need to He died on one point." Griffin looked back, who is this person if he isn't Chris Paul?Paul, he was still very convinced, so he nodded immediately and said: "I understand, I will use the best way to teach him a lesson!"

"Bingo~ That's it~ Let him be the background board~ Blake~" Chris Paul smiled slightly.

The Lakers missed the offense, and Nash missed the top arc three-pointer.

Chris Paul took the lead, dribbled the ball and rushed towards the Lakers half court. To be honest, the main reason why the Clippers can rise is not "Little Jordan" or "White Monster", but This "little man" with a height of only 183CM.He is the source of the Clippers' "Loop City". Without him, the Clippers will quickly become an ordinary team, far from being strong.

Nash's current legs and feet can't keep up with Chris Paul, so No. 24 Kobe Bryant is chasing him with all his strength.

It seems that Kobe's "trip to Germany" is still very worthwhile. Compared with the previous two seasons, his speed and explosive power have obviously improved a lot. After gritting his teeth and chasing hard, he almost caught up with Chris in front of him. Paul.Kobe is 15cm taller than Paul, plus the "hardware advantage" of wingspan and in-situ touch. As long as he can catch up, Kobe has a 7% to 8% certainty of defending the opponent's ball.

Unfortunately, Chris Paul is number 1, so...

"Paul made a wonderful pass. Instead of choosing to shoot himself, he passed the basketball to Blake Griffin who was following up. Griffin held the ball... No, someone took the first step and stole the ball. He is, he is number 29, our Chinese hot!!!"

In the voice of Bill McDonald's commentary, Tang Qian stole the ball, and then quickly passed it to the frontcourt. The Spaniard, who hadn't run far, took advantage of it, and dunked into the basket with one hand without any defense.The Lakers made another two-pointer.

"Damn it, it was intercepted by him!" Griffin said angrily.

"I don't blame you, Blake." Chris Paul said, "I passed the ball too carelessly."

Paul looked at No. 29, lowered his head slightly, and said, "I didn't expect that his reaction would be so fast. He doesn't look like a 7-foot man at all."

"Beautiful pass, hot~" Gasol pointed to Tang Qian when he returned to defense.

"You too, Paul, you buttoned up nicely~" Tang Qian replied with a smile.

Off the court, Mike D'Antoni looked a little better, and his original plan to replace Tang Qian was temporarily dispelled in his mind.

This kid has a bit of adaptability, he has figured out a way to contain his opponent so quickly, yes, he understands the true meaning of basketball is winning or losing... Unlike some people, they just don't know what to say and don't know how to change!

After having the experience of the previous few times, Griffin has also learned to be smarter. He no longer takes the initiative to play singles with the ball, but instead honestly picks and rolls and cuts.This is his strength, at least for the first four seasons, this is Griffin's strongest offensive move.During this period of time, he played similarly to the former Amare Stoudemire, and there are many things that Tang Qian could even study and learn.

But that's all after the game. Now, Tang Qian only wants to win, no matter how he wins, as long as he wins, that's fine.

Even if the approach is a little "rogue", that's okay.

"Oh~ Fans at the scene, did you see it? This is really a rare scene. China Hot sticks to Blake Griffin! Yes, you heard it right! China Hot is tight on the off-ball end Tightly stick to the opponent!" Bill McDonald said in surprise and excitement into the commentary microphone.After all, this kind of scene is very rare on the modern basketball court. A big center with a height of more than 7 feet is chasing another power forward with a height of 6 feet 10 inches without the ball. This is really a novelty.

The most important thing is that he is not at a disadvantage, no, it should be, he has the upper hand!

If this is placed on an outside player, it is commonplace, but it is a complete "new thing" when placed at the 5th position.

The visual impact is both rare and strong.

And as the person involved, Blake Griffin is going crazy!
TNND!What's happening here?In terms of running without the ball, I can't get rid of a No. 5 position?Or a 7 over 5 feet tall? ? ?Oriental bastard! ! !I can't believe it, you can really run like that! ! !
With a roar in his heart, Griffin forcibly increased his speed to the highest level, but... the result did not change in any way.

That oriental figure was still by his side, following him like a shadow.

It's like...glue.

No matter how Griffin changes speed and direction, he can't get rid of this "follower" who makes him "boring"!
More than ten seconds of attack time passed, and Blake Griffin didn't get rid of Tang Qian in a daze, and was stuck tightly by the latter.Seeing that Griffin couldn't get a chance, Paul could only pass the ball to DeAndre Jordan on the inside. "Jordan" used a right-handed hook to shoot, but the result was... bang~ the shot was ironed.

After all, this season, "Little Jordan" is still a "fake starter", and his ability is much worse than that of his future peak. He really starts to explode, and that will be next season.This season, he is just an ordinary 8+7 blue-collar, and that's all for now.

If you want to score this hook through Gasol, you will undoubtedly need some "luck" to help you.

Because Tang Qian left the Lakers' penalty area in order to stick to Griffin, Kobe took on a certain task of rebounding at this time. I saw him jumping high, took the defensive rebound, and then passed Ball Nash, followed up by himself.

The frontcourt was 2 for 1, and Kobe of the Lakers ended the round with a layup with a low hand.

Swing, can't get rid of him?I still can't get rid of a 7 foot stupid big man? ? ?

Griffin was a little dazed. After all, he had played for more than ten years and had never encountered such a situation.

But there is someone in the Clippers who is not easy to fool, and he is Chris Paul.

In terms of the ability of the No. 1 position, Chris Paul has always been in the top three in the league. Even Nash, at his peak, he could barely beat him.But as he got older, he and Paul had long been widened in terms of hard power.

So during this period of time, Chris Paul is the well-deserved No. [-] point guard in the league.

As an excellent No. 1 position, a calm mind is one of the necessary qualities. Although Paul has a bit of a temper, it does not mean that he is not calm and has a weak outlook on the overall situation.In fact, his "point guard quality" is very strong, terrifyingly strong, which is why the "advanced data" is extremely terrifying.

Paul made a tactical gesture, and then the members of the Clippers reacted immediately and began to run interspersed with each other.

Of course Griffin saw it too. Although he was a little reluctant, he had to admit that this was the most mature and reasonable way to attack right now.Tang Qian was still moving with Griffin, but soon, he was forced to stop because someone blocked his way.This person is the No. 6 of the Clippers, DeAndre Jordan.

After seeing Tang Qian being blocked, Paul immediately sent out the basketball, and then Griffin forced a layup.

Although Gasol tried his best to switch defenses, it was a pity that he still failed to defend the ball.

Low off-ball screens?He actually broke his own defensive tactics by relying on this... Chris Paul really deserves to be the number one point guard in the league right now.However, this does not trouble me!Tang Qian made an astonishing move in the next defensive round. Facing "Little Jordan"'s off-ball screen, he actually managed to dodge it with a nimble sliding step!
Come on, this is a big guy over 7 feet tall, how can he be so agile?

Griffin didn't expect Tang Qian to keep up with the ball, so during the layup, he was blocked by the latter, and the basketball flew directly out of the Lakers' baseline.

Of course Griffin was upset, so he wanted to find a chance to hard-dunk Tang Qian, so that the opponent could taste the taste of "yan dunk" again, but unfortunately...he didn't find such an opportunity throughout the third quarter, because the Lakers' 29 No, it was a little too tight for him.

It was like... a "dog skin plaster" that couldn't be torn off or rotted.

No matter how angry you are, no matter how annoyed you are, you can't get rid of its entanglement.

This was still the case in the fourth quarter. Tang Qian would rather not have data, but stick to Blake Griffin, making the other party uncomfortable to the end.And without Blake Griffin's strong scoring point, the Clippers immediately had the problem of "internal and external connections". After all, no matter how good Paul is, he can't make "Jordan" this season's offense enlightened.In fact, let alone the "Little Jordan" of this season, even in the peak period of the future, "Little Jordan" does not have a high personal offensive ability. He currently averages around 8 points per game. If he wants to single-handedly kill the taller Paul Gasol, It's almost like dreaming.

In terms of rebounding and defense, Gasol may not be as good as DeAndre Jordan, but the latter wants to attack the former, but it is also wishful thinking. Although the Spaniard's inside single defense is not top-notch, it is still quasi-first-class.With "Little Jordan"'s poor offensive level and offensive skills, it is basically impossible to break through.

Therefore, the Clippers' inside offense just knelt down, except for the occasional two non-painful alley-oops, there was almost no need to bother to defend.The Clippers are actually not strong by relying on the outside attack alone. Paul is very accurate, but his scoring ability is limited. After all, he is still a No. 1 position in essence. The average score is a career low, with only 22+ left.So he can score, but only relying on him to score, the Clippers are in danger.

As for Butler and Billups, they are both average starters now. One averages 10+ points per game and the other averages 8+ points per game. They are all past their career peaks.Therefore, the Clippers' outside line basically can't kill anyone. After the inside line is blocked, they don't have an absolute strength to attack their opponents.

Although the Lakers' outside defense is still a mess, it's rotten, but fortunately, the offensive end can be combined inside and outside. Nash + Kobe + Gasol is enough to make the Clippers' defense look at one thing and lose another.Again, this season the Lakers' defense is not good, but the offense has never been ambiguous. The average of 102+ points per game is directly higher than the average of 5 points per game in the previous season. , suddenly became an excellent level.

The Clippers don't have an absolute strong point outside, but the Lakers do. Kobe scored 16 points in the fourth quarter of this game, leading the Lakers to reverse the score.With 30 points, 11 assists and 5 rebounds, there is no doubt that he became the best player in the game tonight.Gasol's 18 points and 8 rebounds also perfectly supported the Lakers' inside offensive operation. The key is that his low-post singles efficiency is much better than some people.Coupled with Nash's 7 points and 8 assists, the overall conduction of the Lakers can be called smooth, which is quite pleasing to the eye.

And what about the Clippers?Due to the lack of inside offensive points, the tactical configuration was instantly lacking.Let Paul + old Billups + Butler, who is not as good as before, play the main offensive role. They can hold on for a while, but after a long time, they can't keep up with their strength, and they are immediately suppressed by the Lakers outside.

Among other things, just one No. 24 can knock out two or more. How can you play this offensively?
What about Tang Qian?What are his stats for this game?

Only got 6 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks.

But he successfully contained the Clippers' All-Star player, Blake Griffin, in the second half of the defensive end, making this "All-Star Substitute" face angry, looking at himself, wishing to bite .However, in this game, Tang Qian was not frustrated, on the contrary, he was very happy and delighted, because through the matchup defense in this game, his defensive crystal brick successfully broke through from six and a half yuan to seven yuan.According to the tip of "Different Space", he got a silver defensive card, which is effective within 7 minutes, and the user's defensive ability is increased by 50%.No matter how you look at it, it can be regarded as a good silver ability card.Add to that the game-winning win and a bronze cap card credited.All of a sudden, Tang Qian's "pocket" seemed to be fuller.

But he didn't know that in this game, he not only advanced Blake Griffin's evolution path, but also a bigger "event" was waiting for him in the "different space".
