Chapter 220 The Five Tigers of Washington are reunited!
Even in Xu Lang's view, compared to the second-year team's lineup, his lineup of the Washington Five Tigers seems to have a better chance of winning.

In fact, this is indeed the case, when the rookie challenge, which has attracted much attention, officially started.

The first-year team took the initiative in the game beyond many people's expectations.

At the beginning of the game, Yi Jianlian helped the second-year team get the first offensive ball.

Then Brandon Roy, who got the basketball, made a subconscious long swing and handed the ball to Xu Lang who had already jumped out.

After Xu Lang got the basketball, he looked at David Lee, who had prepared to retreat in advance, and did not slow down at all.

Acceleration, second acceleration, when he was about to hit David Lee, Xu Lang threw the ball high and handed the ball to Yi Jianlian who quickly launched a counterattack after completing the jump ball.

"Oh, the original jump ball fast break tactics."

"Although this season, many teams in the NCAA league have played this kind of jump ball and fast break tactics.

But I still think the jump ball and fast break tactics led by the Washington Five Tigers led by Xu Lang are delicious enough! "

And it's not just the jump ball. When attacking from the ground, the Washington Five Tigers also rediscovered the tactical habits of last year's NCAA Finals.

Brandon Roy became the team's point guard and rhythm controller, while Xu Lang once again became the feared off-ball runner in the NCAA field.

And compared to Xu Lang, who was still a little immature back then, after half a season of improvement and adjustment, Xu Lang has greatly improved his off-ball running position, mid-range shooting and three-point shooting ability. increased in magnitude.

Then, the tacit understanding itself was not as good as the second-year team of the Washington Five Tigers. On the defensive end, it was directly defeated by the invincible combination of Xu Lang and Yi Jianlian.

Then in the 7th minute of the game, that is, when the game was suspended for the first mandatory commercial break.

Under the leadership of Xu Lang and others, the first-year team has achieved a five-point lead.

In this game, Nate Robinson, who replaced Deron Williams and Chris Paul, and Monta Ellis were beaten very embarrassingly by Xu Lang and Brandon Roy.

Not to mention the defensive end, the two are not very strong defensive players themselves.

When facing Brandon Roy and Xu Lang, whose overall offensive strength has increased to 86, and their overall strength has reached 93, it is normal for them to be unable to defend themselves.

It's just that they were blown away by Xu Lang and Brandon Roy not only on the defensive end!

On the offensive end, when the two faced Xu Lang and Brandon Roy, whose defensive strength reached 89 and 85, they were also blown away!
You can't score, you can't defend, if it wasn't for Bogut's inside, who really suppressed Joan Bruce firmly.

The first-year team's lead may be more than just five points.

It was at this time that Xu Lang suddenly discovered that the first-year team's lineup with their five players as the core of their tactics didn't seem to be as weak as imagined!
After all, although Joan Bruce and Bobby Jones are not too strong because of their upper limit of talent.

But Xu Lang and Brandon Roy, Yi Jianlian's strength is enough!

In addition, in the team tactics of the University of Washington, the three of Xu Lang were the main offensive core.

This further obscures the low offensive issues of Joan Bruce and Bobby Jones.

And compared to the poor offense, the defense of the two is much better, one has reached the c level, and the other has reached the c+ level.

Perhaps this level of defensive strength is very inconspicuous in the NBA, and even among the water dispenser players in the NBA, this defensive level can only be regarded as an average level.

But if it is placed in this group of rookies, the defensive strength of this level is above the passing line.

Coupled with the addition of a complete defensive system, when Joan Bruce directly faced Bogut, whose offensive strength reached B-level, he was only suppressed, but not directly crushed!

"Though saying so, I may be a little sorry for Aldridge and Bruce Thomas and others.

But we have to admit that the Five Tigers in Washington will play at the same time, which is a scene that fans across the United States and even fans all over the world are willing to see. "

"Even, if possible, I also hope to see the Washington Five Tigers reunite with the same team in the NBA, so as to show some of their own wonderful performances in the NBA game."

"Of course, I also know that it is not possible now.

Especially after Xu Lang, Yi Jianlian and Brandon Roy have played such a wonderful rookie season, it is impossible for these few people to reunite in the NBA in a short period of 3 to 5 years! "

"But after being able to see the reunion of these people in the Rookie Challenge, and playing an extremely exciting game performance and teamwork, I think it has also met the expectations and hopes of some fans across the United States."

"It's just that, seeing Xu Lang and others playing so well, I'm looking forward to their performance in the NBA when they combine!"

This is indeed the case, after the debut of such a lineup by the sophomore Washington Five Tigers.

All the fans in the audience were sensational, knowing the appetizers for today's All-Star Weekend.

At the scene of the Rookie Challenge, nearly [-]% of the audience and fans wore the home team jersey of the University of Washington Huskies.

Not to mention other things in this year's Rookie Challenge, at least for this game, the NBA has pulled various factors such as feelings, commercial value, etc. to full value.

The only ones who are not satisfied with this game are some outstanding players such as Aldridge and Bruce Thomas, who are both rookies in the 06 class with the Washington Five.

The combination of the Washington Five Tigers in the Rookie Challenge will inevitably affect the playing time of other players who were selected for the Rookie Challenge in 06.

And without enough playing time, the players here naturally have no data guarantee, and without data guarantee, it is even more impossible to pursue the final MVP of the Rookie Challenge.

Wait a minute, looking at it this way, it seems that Xu Lang is the biggest beneficiary!

Perhaps for Paul Millsap, although he has some regrets in his heart, it is acceptable.

After all, Paul Millsap's own strength this season will not be much stronger than Joan Bruce and Bobby Jones.

But for rookies like Bruce Thomas, Aldridge, and Bargnani, who are obviously better than Joan Bruce and Bobby Jones, or even two-tiered, there is some dissatisfaction in their hearts.

It's just that although these players are very dissatisfied now, there is no problem playing as the University of Washington's five tiger generals.

Even when leading the team, they can't do much.

After all, Stephen Nash had already explained it when he first came up.

Everything in this game is under Xu Lang's control. After all, he single-handedly said that the five tigers of Wharton will be the core of tactics in this game.

The coach didn't care about it, even a little conniving, and he was in the lead in the game. Aldridge and others really couldn't find a good reason and way to force them to play!
Of course, the main reason is that Xu Lang's performance this season is really good enough, and they may clearly feel that there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides.

In addition, Xu Lang has now become a position in the league where he can hang shoulders with the big players in the league such as Kobe, O'Neal and others.

Let them, a group of rookies who were mostly bullied by veterans in the team, actually have some awe towards Xu Lang.

Although these players may not realize this in their hearts.

But the fact is that as Xu Lang's performance in the NBA is getting better and better, after becoming a rising star or superstar in the NBA.

The rookies who were in the same class as Xu Lang subconsciously began to regard Xu Lang as a player of another level.

Soon the official timeout ends and the game resumes.

After returning from the timeout, the second-year team immediately changed their lineup.

Obviously, after seven minutes of experimentation, Kidd has realized that the second-year team's Monta Ellis and Nate Robinson two-point guard lineup is not very effective.

Of course, Kidd himself knew very well that the starting lineup he arranged at the beginning was not at all the strongest starting lineup with the best lineup configuration in the entire second-year team.

But if you can't hold back, the second-year team has an alliance mission like the first-year team!
That is to play Nate Robinson as much as possible.

The reason is also very simple. One is that the league wants to continue to quarrel with Nate Robinson and the Washington Five Tigers.

On the other hand, Nate Robinson was also asked to come up and serve as the background board for the Washington Five Tigers.

However, from the current position, the first goal of the alliance has not been achieved very well, but the second goal has been carried out very smoothly.

In the past 7 minutes, under the special targeting of Xu Lang and Brandon Roy, Nate Robinson experienced the defensive treatment of a superstar in the league.

Xu Lang used the various small moves and rough defensive moves that he remembered from Magic Johnson and other three player templates on Nate Robinson.

Facts have proved that Nate Robinson, whose physical fitness and height itself has a certain disadvantage.

Facing Brandon Roy and Xu Lang, who were two or even three levels stronger than him in overall strength, they had absolutely no chance of fighting.

"Why? These two guys have improved so much in just one season."

Nate Robinson rubbed his abdomen, which had just been elbowed many times by Xu Lang, and thought with a look of pain on his face!
After returning from the timeout, the lineup of the second-year team was readjusted, and it became the following state:
Center: Bogut, Forwards: David Lee, Danny Granger, Guards: Felton, Chris Paul
Originally, Kidd hesitated a little at the point guard, but in the end he chose to believe in Chris Paul, who is more similar to his game style.

Although they are also pass-oriented point guards, the style of play between Chris Paul and Deron Williams is still somewhat different.

Chris Paul is a typical 90's super point guard's style of play, organization, and offense.

With its own tactical system, it can truly become a tactical commander on the court.

And Deron Williams is more about offense, organization, requirements and adaptability to the team's tactical system than Chris Paul.

If you have to give an example, Deron Wilms' style of play is a bit like that of Mark Jackson and Baron Davis, a point guard player who drives the ball with offense.

Of course, it doesn't mean that one of these two styles of play must be better or one must be worse.

After all, if he can really find some balance between offense and organization, it is also possible for an offensive point guard to play his own wonderful game.

But this time in the rookie challenge, with Kidd as the head coach, Chris Paul is obviously more worthy of trust.

On the one hand, it is because Kidd himself is also a player who passes more than offense.

On the other hand, it is because for the improvised team lineup of the Rookie Challenge, it is easier for Chris Paul, a point guard with his own tactical system, to help these players show their true strength.

In fact, when Chris Paul re-entered the court, Bogut, David Lee and others, who played like a fly in the first 7 minutes, immediately found out their offensive position.

David Lee instantly showed his excellent footwork and offensive sense on the offensive end, and Bogut also got some opportunities to attack the basket after completing pick-and-rolls with Chris Paul many times.

The player who received the most passes from Chris Paul was Danny Granger at the small forward position. In just 7 minutes, it was time for the official second timeout.

Danny Granger's personal scoring data has been raised to 15 points.

You must know that in the first 7 minutes of this game, Danny Granger had a total of three shot opportunities, and he only hit one of them.

The outside combination Monta Ellis and Nate Robinson played together with Danny Granger in the first 7 minutes, let alone passing the ball.

During the attack, the two didn't even look at Danny Granger.

Although this season's Danny Granger's personal scoring data has directly doubled compared to last season.

It has become the biggest surprise among the Pacers who have been squeezed out of the playoffs this year.

But obviously, for Nate Robinson and Monta Ellis, Danny Granger's progress and statistical performance are not enough for them to share their possession of the ball.

Especially Nate Robinson is inferior to Xu Lang and Brand Roy in terms of overall strength.

Now if the ball is distributed again, Nate Robinson's data performance in the first 7 minutes will only get worse!

Fortunately, Danny Granger waited until Chris Paul played.

Chris Paul is a very traditional point guard.

Paul's first task on the field is organization. As for offense, it is more for passing and organization.

Presumably, it is precisely because of Chris Paul's playing style and playing habits that Bogut, the No. 05 pick in [-], obeys Chris Paul's command and does what he is asked to do.

After the second-year team replaced this new lineup, the Washington Five Tigers, who had a certain advantage on the field, did not start to play so easily.

Of course, under the pressure of Xu Lang and others, the overall tactical operation of the Washington Five Tigers is relatively stable.

It's just because of Chris Paul that the lineup of the entire second-year team has been assembled as a whole.

This made the first-year team somewhat helpless on the defensive end. Like the first 7 minutes, it firmly suppressed the second-year team under a lower shooting percentage.

In the end, at the end of the halftime game, neither the first-year team continued to expand its lead, nor did the second-year team narrow the gap between the two teams too much.

At the end of the halftime game, with a score difference of four points, before the game started, no one would have thought that the game would be so tight.

Even before the game started.

Most people thought that the second-year team would take a certain lead after halftime.

Especially in the first-year team, the entire first half of the game was dominated by the Washington Five Tigers defeating the core.

It made more people feel that the second-year team had a much higher chance of taking the lead in the first half of the game.

However, Xu Lang led the Washington Five Tigers to prove with actual game performance that the Washington Five Tigers, who can kill all quarters in the NCAA, are still very strong compared with a group of players of the same age in the Rookie Challenge .

Moreover, the performances of Xu Lang, Brandon Roy and Yi Jianlian were much better than those of the second-year team's opponents at the same position.

At the end of halftime, Xu Lang had already scored 27 points, seven rebounds, and four assists.

Throughout the first half of the game, Xu Lang played more as an offensive finisher and off-ball runner.

This ensured that while Xu Lang could get more offensive opportunities, he also reduced his organizational tasks.

This was a pretty good choice for Xu Lang, whose mental state hadn't recovered to full.

Originally, Xu Lang thought that he could recover half of his mental state in a week.

Before the start of the All-Star Weekend, his mental state may return to full capacity, but in fact Xu Lang's thinking is still a little too simple.

As Xu Lang's mental state recovered later, it took more and more time. It took at least two weeks to recover naturally.

Xu Lang's mental state has only recovered to about [-]%.
