Chapter 725 Starting from Timberwolves (Finally home~)

Dongfang Tang's super deterrent power at the basket!James was blocked 10 times in one game! —Los Angeles Times.

20 big blocks, this is not counting those blocks that exceed 24 seconds, otherwise this will be astronomical! — the bleachers.

Emperor! ! !Mourning directly called Dongfang Tang the nemesis of Zhan Huang! ! ! — Lakers Nation.

Oriental center tradition!From Yao to Tang, James will decline every Chinese center! —Orange County Register.

The newspapers in Los Angeles are all positive reports, but the rest are not so friendly. For example, the Miami Herald reported this way:

Savage oriental hot!He left Michael Beasley with a slight fracture of his right rib!
He's a ballpark thug!Rely on violence to deter the alliance!This kind of person should be kicked out!Never play in the NBA!

James said after the game that Hot is a good player, but he doesn't appreciate the latter's court style, which is not beneficial to the civilization and politeness of the NBA!

In addition, ESPN also reported negatively:

The violence factor of Dongfang Hot!He is the person who should be banned for life most!
Based on the inside information of multiple teams, many players are unwilling to play against the Lakers because they hate Dongfang Hot!

Blessing with military force and defensive ability, such a person can also get DPOY?Then simply introduce the heavyweight boxing champion to the alliance!
The famous Wes Unseld said: He will never abuse force!This is not what NBA players should do!

For these, Tang Qian has long been indifferent, Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng will destroy it, this kind of "blackness" is a test that any star must stand.Not to mention superstars and super giants.

That's what the media is for. How do you attract attention if you don't pick things up?How to get attention and click-through rate?
Tang Qian is no longer the Xiaobai he was back then, he has gradually gotten used to the American sports circle.

The next day, the NBA office issued a penalty announcement. The Lakers were suspended for 29 games on the 4th, fined $200 million, and served 45 hours in the community.The Lakers' No. 0 was suspended for 2 games, fined $35, and 20 hours of community service.The Lakers head coach was suspended for one game.

The severity of the punishment was mainly due to the fact that the suspension was not strong, which made the Miami Heat very angry. Wade and Riley even directly bombarded: This is special care, giving the Lakers a "star whistle"!But it's still Stern's term, and the latter directly punished Wade and Riley with an iron fist, giving Wade and Riley a ticket for "talking about it".

At this time, Riley wanted to unite with other teams in the league to resist, but unexpectedly the joint action was "closed door", because except for the Nuggets, it seemed that the rest of the teams were not very interested in this proposal.So in the end, even the boss's joint board of directors failed to convene, and the Heat could only suffer this "dark loss".

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that the Heat are now the dominant player in the league, at least for now. 3 championships in 2 years, and it is even very likely to win three consecutive championships this year, tying the super honor of the OK combination at the beginning of the new century, and establishing the fourth dynasty team in league history.How can such a result not attract people's resentment and jealousy?

Therefore, most teams in the league are actually "gloating" in their hearts now, wishing that the Lakers would directly abolish the Big Three in Miami on the 29th.In this way, how could it be possible to collude with Riley and hold a general meeting of the alliance shareholders?

This matter eventually became one of the big unsolved cases in NBA history, and many people compared it to the New York draft case that year.

But David Stern didn't care at all. He was about to retire soon, and he also caught the small minds of the bosses in the league, so he dared to issue such a trivial ticket.Furthermore, David Stern once again used the penalty standard of "heavy fines and light suspensions" to punish Tang Qian, which shows his IQ.You say my punishment is unfair?How much did I fine Anthony for the last brawl at Madison Square Garden?A mere 64!This time the Lakers made a penalty of 29 million on the 200th, isn't it enough?

Besides, the number of the Lakers is extremely small now, and if the penalties continue, they will almost not be able to assemble a complete lineup. Why should they be a little more merciful and humane, right?
After seeing the final penalty, Tang Qian breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know why David Stern treated him so favorably, compared to money, reducing the number of penalties was the key. He didn't feel as distressed as those black stars beautiful knife.

"Hot, I'm sorry, you were fined 200 million yuan!" Nick Yang called Tang Qian immediately after seeing the ticket.

"It's okay, Nick, I think it's worth it to exchange 200 million for a good teammate." Tang Qian replied like this. It can be seen that he has gradually grown to the level of a leader or quasi-leader after years of experience. , all aspects are improving.

"Thank you, Tang, I will remember your shot yesterday." Nick Yang said.

The next day they played an away game against the Orlando Magic. Without Tang Qian + Kobe Bryant + Nick Young, the Lakers lineup was simply the worst in the league. They were directly bloodbathed by the Magic, the third-to-last team in the Eastern Conference, and lost by 29 points.

2 consecutive losses.

In the 45th game of the regular season, the Lakers continued their consecutive road trip in the Eastern Conference and lost again to the New York Knicks by 19 points.

3 consecutive losses.

In the 46th game of the regular season, Kobe returned from injury and faced the No. 39 Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference. Even though he scored [-] points, it was still difficult to prevent the Lakers from losing by a big score, and the Lakers continued to decline.

4 consecutive losses.

In the last game in January, the Lakers played against the Charlotte Hornets at home. Kobe scored 1 points in this game. However, due to the comprehensive failure of inside and outside lines, the Hornets finally scored in double figures with 58 players, 7-110, and defeated the Lakers by 100 points.Give the Lakers a 10-game losing streak this season.

5 consecutive losses.

So far, the Lakers' ranking in the Western Conference has slipped to 6th, only half a game away from the seventh Grizzlies in the West, only one game away from the Dallas Mavericks in the eighth place in the West, and only one and a half games away from the ninth Suns in the West. Ten Timberwolves are only three and a half games behind.That is to say, if the Lakers lose 2 more games, they are very likely to fall directly out of the top eight in the Western Conference, or even the top nine in the Western Conference.The situation is extremely dangerous.

This season's West Division is also called the Devil's Division. Except for the top two teams, the Spurs and Thunder, the difference in winning games behind them is very small, not big.Kobe looked at the team record that was declining bit by bit, and he was very anxious. Could it be that the peak season he exchanged for the rest of his career was wasted like this?This is the end?Can't even make it to the playoffs? ? ?
After resting for several days, the Lakers entered 48 games of the regular season. In this game, Tang Qian, the team's main center, finally returned. Facing the eyeing Timberwolves, the Lakers team is ready to go.

"Hot, are you ready? There's no time for you to get used to it, you have to get into the game right away! The difference between Timberwolves and us is not that big." Kobe doesn't believe anyone now, he just believes that sitting next to him Lace size 29.Because these few fights alone made him extremely depressed, and he couldn't see the hope of winning.

I don't know when it started, the number 29 of the Lakers has become an indispensable and irreplaceable figure in Los Angeles.

During this period, the team's deputy general manager Bonnie Laughlin directly bought out the team contract of Marshan Brooks, letting the latter get out of the Los Angeles Lakers.This is tantamount to another blow to general manager Mitch Kupchak.

Because this player was replaced by him, and within a few games, he was publicly boycotted by the team. Bonnie Laughlin took advantage of it and kicked him out in one go.In this way, Mitch Kupchak once again bears the big pot of "unknown people".

"I heard that Paul has begun to enter the final stage of recovery, and he will be able to join the team for joint training in a short time, right?" Tang Qian asked. "That's right, but I'm worried that we'll collapse during this period of time, and Paul's return will be meaningless." Kobe's worries are not groundless. The Lakers' morale is currently low, and they are suffering from a five-game losing streak. Later, there were powerful enemies chasing troops, so it's no wonder he wasn't anxious.

"Let's win the Timberwolves first and end the losing streak." Tang Qian said: "Leave the defense to me, and you can just attack. We still play in a slow-paced and low-round style. The Timberwolves can't play positional warfare. This is a situation that can be used. point." Kobe nodded and said: "I'll leave the basket defense alone, otherwise I really can't concentrate on scoring points."

"Don't worry, I will take care of the defense at the basket." No. 29 of the Lakers stood up and said.

There are not many things to watch in this game, so it was not selected to be broadcast live in the United States. This is good, so as not to put too much pressure on the Lakers players.

"Welcome back, hot." Nick Yang took the initiative to come over and give Tang Qian a clap.

"Yeah, after resting for so many days, my body is almost covered with calluses, so I must have a good time tonight!"

"How do you want to play?" Nick Young asked.

"Of course I played to death." Tang Qian said "hehe".

The Timberwolves' record against the Lakers this season is not bad, and they have also won the ball, so they know how to target and break the game.Adelman's Princeton tactics in this team, can be regarded as the beginning of clues, but it is a pity that the team was dismantled just after making a name for himself, which made the "coach with a thousand victories" in NBA history reluctantly choose to hang up. .

The Timberwolves still played fast Princeton. They adopted a flexible running and equal opportunity shooting strategy, and they suppressed the Los Angeles Lakers from the beginning.20-33 in a single quarter, the Lakers lost 13 points.Falling behind in the first quarter seems to have become the norm for the Lakers this season, and there is nothing surprising about it.

Tang Qian activated "Half God" in this game because he needs to stay on the field for the entire game, and after "Half God" is activated, his physical fitness will not be limited by the original.Tang Qian thought that after his blocking crystal bricks and defensive crystal bricks were both capped, he was almost the same as the peak Chamberlain, but when he activated the "half-god down to earth", he realized that he was wrong.

If he barely suppressed the Timberwolves' entire inside line in the first quarter, in the second quarter, he became completely dominant.

In other words, Thackeray doesn't even need to be on the court, he alone can dominate the two inside players of the Timberwolves.

This surprised the entire Timberwolves team.

Just kidding, what is the all-round peak Chamberlain?Just take the strongest state!
Probably averaged 27+ rebounds per game! 13+~14+ blocks!And the defensive pressure is far stronger than Tang Qian's normal state!

Why is this happening?Isn't it because Tang Qian's current physical fitness is not good enough, his strength is not enough, and his tonnage is not enough!If he can't improve these things, then he won't be able to reach this level in his whole life.All of a sudden, Tang Qian once again aroused the desire to surpass, and his slightly complacent and arrogant psychology disappeared in an instant.

Timberwolves insiders Turiaf and Kevin Love are going crazy, both of them are suppressed to death!There is no way to break free!It's like a cobweb with a giant spider attached!don't move!Only struggling!Especially the latter, he is the man who won the rebounding champion!He is currently the man averaging 12+ rebounds per game!But he entered "The.Zone" in this game, but it still didn't help. He was easily cleaned up and ravaged by that Dongfang No. 29!

This is a huge blow to Love's self-confidence.

He even yelled loudly in the last quarter, but it was still fruitless. He only got 5 rebounds in the whole game.Otherwise, counting head-on one-on-one rebounds, Love never got a single offensive rebound from Tang Qian's head.

This...how is this possible? ? ?

Is he a monster? ? ?
Entering "The.Zone", he can only protect the backcourt rebounds, and he has missed many times. This is the first time Love has played basketball.

He deeply felt what despair is.

Standing with that oriental man, he felt like a goblin, with no momentum or presence at all.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that his 10+ rebounds in the 11-15 season are known as the most watery 15+ rebounds in NBA history, because his non-confrontational rebounds are as high as 61.3%!This is also an alternative record for the NBA rebounding champion.So when the inside players of the Timberwolves were no longer willing to be "wedding dresses" for nothing, Love's rebounding lost its magic, and it was not as good as every year.

Tang Qian didn't pay attention to this kind of person at all, no matter whether he activated "Demigod Down to Earth" or not, it was just abusing him without discussion.

Because Tang Qian's non-confrontational rebounds are the lowest in the entire NBA.However, this data does not count the insiders before the 90s, so it can only be said that since the statistics are available, the Lakers' No. 29 is the most confrontational rebounder.

none of them.

After Tang Qian completed the second dunk on Love's head, the latter actually directly withdrew from the inside, allowing teammates Turiaf and Corey Brewer to top.Why did he go?He went outside to fly a kite and shoot a three-pointer!
PS: I have to take a break today and adjust my state, and the [-]D will explode tomorrow~
