Chapter 516 Zhe Nash
Obviously, Nash's state exploded under Paul's provocation, and maybe he directly entered the explosive state.

Don't look at it as just an ordinary pass, but to really do a good job of "predicting the pass" and "guiding the pass", it requires the passer to spend a lot of brainpower and concentration to complete.So why do people who assist in double figures generally score around 20+ at most, and there are basically few who can reach 25+. Passing and organization definitely consume as much energy as scoring and rebounding.

Nash averaged less than 7+ assists per game this season. This is because his body is further aging and his competitive state is further declining. The second is the Lakers system. ball.Where is Paul?This season, he averaged 9.7 assists per game, ranking below Rondo's average of 11+ per game. But if we really want to compare the peak state, Nash's passing skills must be much better than Chris Paul. In the average 13+ season, this is more than 2+ more than the former.As a pure point guard, assist data is the simplest hard indicator. You cannot say that Nash benefited from the "bombardment system", because if it weren't for Nash, the Suns would have no so-called running and bombing at all, and the entire league would definitely It will not enter the "small ball era" so soon.He is the most suitable point guard for small ball tactics and D'Antoni. If you want to force Paul to replace Nash, dare you say that he will definitely be the MVP for two consecutive times?Will he be able to reach the Western Conference Finals several times in his career?
I'm afraid it will be difficult. After all, Chris Paul hasn't touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals yet, has he?

So in terms of improving the team's combat effectiveness, Nash is better than Paul, at least until Paul proves himself, there is still a gap between him and Nash.This is why Nash's defense is very ordinary. If Nash has Paul's body and such a strong defense, it may not be impossible to bring Phoenix to the finals.Defense is Paul's greatest strength, but also Nash's greatest weakness.

"I won't let you keep performing." After Paul finished speaking, he dribbled the ball himself, changed direction, reached the inside of the Lakers, and then continued to throw, preparing to break the deadlock of the Clippers himself.But this time, he was not so lucky, because a giant yellow palm slapped the basketball away vigorously when it was about to reach its highest point.

What? ? ?
Kobe of the Lakers had quick eyes and hands, got the basketball, then passed the ball to Nash, and ran towards the frontcourt by himself.

Nash was also in excellent form. A one-handed long pass, the basketball almost did not stop, and at the same time as Kobe reached beyond the three-point line, it was passed to the latter's palm.Of course Kobe understood what Nash meant, he stopped decisively and made a jumper from outside the three-point line.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is really a bit exaggerated and risky, because the three-point shooting rate is limited, and no matter how strong the three-point shooter is, it is impossible to exceed 50% of the three-point shooting rate.And giving up almost 100% of the two-pointers and pursuing three-pointers, no matter how you look at it, it's not worthwhile.But Kobe just scored the ball, and with a "swipe", there was a burst of cheers in the Staples Center.

This is the cheers of some Lakers fans.

101-105, with about 5 minutes left in the game, the Lakers caught up with only 4 points left.

The big score difference of up to 23 points was eroded by the Lakers.

This made the head coach of the Clippers call a timeout in a panic.

The players of both sides temporarily left the field to rest.

"It's only 4 points away, Mr. No. 3 point guard in active service." Steve Nash said to No. 1 of the Clippers before leaving the court, which made the latter's face suddenly turn black, and said in a low voice: "Win the basketball game!" There is no difference between 99 point and 23 points, I just need to help the team win tonight, so 1 points and [-] point, I don't care at all!"

"Okay~ that's good, I hope you will show your strength later~" Nash turned his head and walked off the field lightly, which made Paul angry again.After returning to the Clippers bench area, he yelled: "What are you doing? Is the ball I pass angular? Is it uncomfortable to shoot? 23 points were chased to 4 points, should you be ashamed? ???" Even though Paul is a small man, he is the boss of the entire Clippers team, and he is the most tempered and irritable person in the entire Clippers team.

The Clippers all lowered their heads, because they all knew that in all fairness, Paul made a lot of good shots in the fourth quarter just now, but they didn't grasp the end point and didn't make a shot.So it's only natural for people to get angry.

Especially Griffin and Jordan, the two of them had their heads drooping the most. Paul gave them most of the ball in the fourth quarter, and the opportunity came out, but he didn't successfully put the basketball into the Lakers' basket inside.Here, the two of them are most responsible.

"Forget it, forget it, Chris, it's no wonder they..." The head coach of the Clippers wanted to run out to smooth things over, but it made the angry Chris Paul even more annoyed: "No wonder they??? No wonder Are they going to blame me??? Ah???" Pooh DeNaglo fell silent after hearing this, and said nothing more.It can be seen that he has no status at all in the Clippers. He is purely Paul's senior assistant and senior assistant coach.

"Come on in the fourth quarter! Then turn my passes into offense! Turn them into points! Got it???" Paul yelled, and the rest of the Clippers nodded their heads to show they understood .

Playing again, sure enough, the mental state of the Clippers changed, and everyone's eyes widened, as if they wanted to eat their opponents alive.For 4 minutes in a row, both sides were back and forth, especially between the No. 1 position. The competition was fierce. Nash had just assisted one, and Paul was about to return one, without giving in.You asked how Paul broke through Tang Qian's inside blockade. It's very simple. He expanded the assist point. If he passed the ball to the inside line, he must have taken the lead and used his body to create a confrontation with Tang Qian before dividing. The ball went out, making it impossible for Tang Qian to spare him.Or it is to attract Tang Qian's attention first, and then divide the ball left and right. Anyway, Tang Qian will not have the first opportunity to make up defense and assist defense.

Playing like this consumes a lot of physical energy and body, because the pressure of being defended at the 1st position is too great, but Paul is also a bit "burning with anger", so no matter what, he just wants to make sure to win the game.He and the No. 10 Steve Nash of the Lakers are completely in love, so at this moment, the Clippers, No. 3, are eager to win.

On the defensive end, Nash was thrown into a mess by opponents, full of holes, but fortunately, the Lakers' inside line is extremely powerful, which minimizes his defensive loopholes in the invisible.The offensive end is different. Nash obviously has enough energy in this game. He wants to compete with Chris Paul, so the connection and organization state are overwhelming, and he even faintly stepped into the edge of "The.Zone". a feeling of.This made the two sides tie in the last minute, 1-113, and returned to the starting line.

Paul seemed very angry, because he tried his best, but instead of increasing the score, the team was narrowed down and tied. This fell on Paul's heart, like a slap in the face.

Very angry.

But the Clippers didn't try their best. Both Griffin and Jordan showed 100% game focus, but there are still only a few cases where they can put the basketball inside the Lakers' basket.For most of the rest of the time, although he didn't get capped again, his shooting percentage was quite low. This was because the Lakers' No. 29 interference range was too large and too strong.Even if it is not directly blocked, it will also affect and disturb the opponent.

You must know that everyone has their own fixed shooting rhythm. If they are forcibly disrupted in order to avoid blocks, the shooting rate will definitely drop sharply, or even be completely inaccurate.In this situation, Jordan is fine. Anyway, his offensive ability is very poor, and he averaged no more than 8+ points per game this season, but Blake Griffin's abnormality made Paul a little intolerable.As a stable scoring point with an average of 18+ points per game, he was almost blocked in the fourth quarter. What is this called?Is this a joke?
If it weren't for the super sixth man Jamal Crawford who came off the bench and scored two three-pointers after catching the ball from the outside, the Clippers would probably fall behind now.This huge change made Chris Paul furious, and his eyes shone with a frightening light when he was behind the bench.The competitive spirit mixed with a strong sense of irritability made him make up his mind to lead the defense and stick to the No. 2 of the Lakers!
"Chris didn't retreat, he was...he's going to start the whole court defense? Oh~ the final duel has begun!" said the Clippers' on-site commentator Lal Flawler, because the whole court defense is a matter of It is a very exhausting thing, so it is not the last moment, basically it will not happen.As for the Olympics, it is because the US team "five up and five down", all of them have amazing physical fitness, so they dare to play like this. Otherwise, if you look at other teams, which one dares to do this?
Nash also saw the opponent. He took the serve from the baseline, then took a silent breath, and began to attack Paul's full-court defense head-on.Dribbling the ball across half court is the basic duty of the No. 1 position, and it is also the most primitive attribute, so Nash does not give an inch, even the pick-and-roll does not let Tang Qian, who serves the bottom line, do it. It is one-on-one, just do it by yourself!

I have turned 39 years old, and my physical condition is not as good as before, but...do you think I have no ability to dribble past half court?So what am I going to start?Then why would I play in the NBA!
Tang Qian looked back while running, and suddenly, the intense sense of confrontation made his lips dry.

Steve Nash began to back up, protect the ball, make an emergency stop, accelerate, make a sudden change, and change direction non-stop. Paul was also constantly moving, sticking to the former with all his strength, preventing the former from crossing the half before 8 seconds .Although the previous games were exciting and intense, the real highlight was born in this backcourt duel.Both of them seemed to be serious, trying their best to fight each other, refusing to give in to each other.

Kobe was constantly making air cuts, and he seemed 100% confident that Steve Nash would successfully break through Paul's full-court lead defense and come to the frontcourt to organize an attack.

"5 seconds! Nash still has a third of it! 6 seconds! Nash still has a fifth of it! 7 seconds! Chris is almost successful! One more second is an offensive violation, our Clippers The team's possession of the ball..." Before Lal Frawler finished speaking, Steve Nash shook his ankle continuously, kicked off forcefully, and dribbled past Chris Paul's personal defense.

It's amazing, Steve Nash is 39 years old, right?Can you still do this kind of action? ? ?
You must know that the person defending him is the league's steal king + a proper first-defense candidate! ! !

When Tang Qian met Nash, he was already 38 years old, so he had never witnessed the latter's true peak.Coming to the Lakers, although he has been in contact with him for a long time, Nash has a certain degree of "dead spirit". Coupled with the constant injuries this season, he has become more and more careful in playing, like the previous "Son of the Wind". "Sex, there is not much left.Tonight, Tang Qian really got a glimpse of why a white man with an ordinary defensive No. 1 can be the MVP of the team and become a promoter of an era!His point guard ability has really reached the top in history!

"Steve Nash broke through Paul's defense! Steve Nash cut in directly with the acceleration of the backcourt, one step and two steps, and took off! Oh~no~ He tricked two inside players of our Clippers, and then passed The ball went out, and the ball was caught by Kobe who moved over. Kobe took off from the right side instantly, and Kobe dunked! Kobe dunked DeAndre Jordan behind the back!!!" The voice of the Clippers commentator was a bit "miserable", because Kobe + Nash's cooperation successfully humiliated the Clippers. They made the Clippers' inside defense feel ashamed and humiliated!

Although Kobe was suspected of "luck and trickery" on this ball, he completed a dunk before Jordan turned around, but the referee and the reporters on the sidelines didn't care so much, they blew the whistle in their mouths , one pressed the shutter in his hand, "beep beep~" "click~", two voices gave the Clippers No. 6 a "judgment" at the same time.

Goals count!Add a free throw!
Neither Nash nor Kobe yelled, they just walked together calmly, and then clapped their hands lightly.

This is the last attitude of the 96 golden generation.

115-113, the Lakers have to add a free throw!
Mike D'Antoni was on the sidelines, and couldn't help throwing a punch to show his excitement and excitement.

Sure enough, Nash and Kobe were calling!As long as there is a strong inside defense as the backing, it will do!
It's a pity that they are all old...if they are ten years younger!No, as long as they are 5 years old, the alliance will definitely tremble!

Paul watched this scene from behind, feeling jealous and angry in his heart, because if it wasn't for "basketball reasons" and David Stern's obstruction, then the person who should have stood in Nash's place was himself!I am the No. 1 that fits best with Kobe!I am young and have offense and defense. Even if my organizational ability is slightly worse than the Lakers' No. 10, the gap is still very small. If I match Kobe, then this Lakers team will definitely take off completely!

Damn Nash!Damn David Stern!Hateful "basketball reasons"! ! !
Paul actually thinks this way now, which is a bit of an "afterthought" and "after-the-fact", because before he went to the Lakers, he was clearly worried that he and Kobe would not get along, would Kobe give up the ball, would Kobe Will play off the ball and things like that.But for all these problems, Steve Nash has helped him prove that Kobe and the super one can coexist, and Kobe is also willing to give up possession of the ball. He only needs to control the shot. Kobe can not only play off the ball, And it's terribly efficient!
FOX Sports has specifically calculated the efficiency of Kobe + Nash when playing off the ball. The results are not only amazing, but also exaggerated!

He averaged 26.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, shooting 52.8% from the field, 40.5% from the three-point range, and 89.4% from the free throw line. He averaged 17.8 of 9.4 shots per game.Although the sample is only about ten or so games, this is already surprising.Want to know how old Kobe was in the 2012-2013 season?They are about to be 35 years old, and their physical condition and athletic ability have long since lost their peak courage, but they can still get this kind of data!If he cooperates with Nash or the super No. 1 position during his peak period, will his efficiency be skyrocketing?No one knows, because of injuries and record problems in the later period, Kobe returned to playing with the ball, and his high efficiency was gone forever.

But at least it proves that Kobe doesn't know how to play off the ball, but off the ball is an extremely terrifying existence, even more terrifying than most people imagined!But it is a pity that he does not have the management status of James in the Lakers, so he has been fighting alone for a long time, allowing us to appreciate the super scoring department, but not the super efficiency department.

brush~
Kobe made the free throw, 116-113, and the Lakers went ahead with a 3-pointer.

Seeing that there is not much game time, Paul's eyes are also red. He holds the ball alone, and then makes a three-pointer.

brush~
The basketball actually got into the Lakers' net with precision.

116-116, Mike D'Antoni's heart hung high again.

After serving in the backcourt, Paul continued to lead the defense. Nash also had a strong desire to fight in his eyes, and he did not back down, forcing a head-on confrontation with him!

This time, the backcourt duel was more intense than the previous round. The physical confrontation and technical changes escalated again. The Clippers' on-site commentator Ral Flawler shouted loudly: "It's too intense! It's too intense!" Intense! I seem to see sparks from these two people!!!"

Paul's defense is already very strong, and he even almost touched the basketball in Nash's hands several times, but at this moment, Nash has become the "son of the wind", and the blood in his whole body is rushing violently, supporting him to make a Another large movement beyond the body's load.

The Steve Nash at this moment is like the Steve Nash seven or eight years ago, with fluttering long hair, as if he could run ahead of the wind anytime, anywhere.

"Pass! Steve Nash once again broke through Paul's defense. He deserves to be the consecutive MVP! He deserves to be the number one point guard in the league! His ability to handle the ball is simply superb!!! "

hateful!I will not lose!I want to guard against you!

Paul forcefully exerted his strength to catch up, and was once again stuck to Steve Nash's body.

During the fierce confrontation between the two, Paul suddenly found that Nash disappeared from his eyes. Pay attention, it was not the kind of normal disappearance, but the kind of disappearance that violated the normal dribbling rules... Could it be...

"Steve Nash's body seemed to lose his balance. Before he fell to the ground, he threw the basketball in his hand high and flew towards our basket. But this ball was absolutely impossible to score because of the arc and precision. Speed... wwwwwwwhat??? Alley-oop!!! No. 29 of the Lakers leaped high!!! He caught the high throw and went into the basket violently!!!" That's right, Tang Qian made a leap and forcibly Overwhelmed everyone, and then smashed the basketball into the Clippers' basket with one hand!
At this moment, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of Steve Nash's mouth, and then he fell to the floor.
