NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 330 Wang Feng vs Leonard

In the game of who is worse than who, Gasol is still better. He is heavier than Lopez and three years older, so he loses the scrimmage by a small disadvantage.

The Lakers have the ball to attack.

Wang Feng held the ball and met Kawhi Leonard.

Both Wang Feng and Leonard are the most typical offensive and defensive players in the league. Wang Feng is obviously stronger than Leonard in terms of offense, and Leonard, who has already won the best defensive player award twice, is recognized The one with the better defense.

The duel between the two can be described as sparks hitting the earth. It is difficult for fans to decide which is stronger, especially after entering the playoffs, Leonard, who performed well during the regular season, also broke out super scoring The ability surprised many people.

And no one knows better than Wang Feng that the 18-19 season is the peak period of Leonard's career. Whether it is the previous season or the next few years with the Clippers, Leonard will not play this season again. Such a high level of performance.

To put it bluntly, looking at Leonard's performance in the 18-19 season alone, his personal strength during this period is definitely worthy of No. 1 in the league, the title of strongest, compared with James and Durant in the same period , Antetokounmpo is stronger.

Of course, that was in another time and space without Wang Feng.

Wang Feng's current overall ability rating is as high as 97, and after Leonard won the championship for the Raptors in 19, his overall ability rating was also adjusted to 2 by 97K, which is considered a tie between the two.

However, apart from Wang Feng's ability value of 97, he is also blessed with several high-level badges.

In the 2K game, Leonard also has badges, and the number is more than Wang Feng's, as many as 46. stronger.

In the first attack, Leonard's defensive position is relatively low, obviously because he is more afraid of Wang Feng's breakthrough with the ball under the blessing of the master badge in the first step, and he is quite confident in his wingspan advantage and ability to defend and shoot from the outside .

That being the case, Wang Feng didn't get used to Leonard, and immediately pulled up on the spot and jumped up.

Wang Feng's fast shooter badge has been upgraded to the golden all-star level after the accumulation and tempering of the previous seasons, and his shooting speed is quite fast.

Leonard stepped forward to defend at the first time, but he was still half a beat behind.

"brush!"

Basketball hit the net.

3: 0.

The Raptors attack.

Leonard stood on the outside, ran without the ball and cut to the basket, and used his teammates' pick-and-roll to separate the gap with Wang Feng, and then made an emergency stop jump shot in front of Ingram who was defending.

3: 2.

The Raptors have obviously done their homework. If Leonard and Wang Feng are headed one-on-one, there is a high probability that they will still be at a disadvantage. After all, Wang Feng's scoring methods are too versatile. Even if the defensive end is better than Leonard's A little less, but not too bad.

If the Raptors, which already have a gap in the lineup, want to win, they must avoid this kind of pawn-to-pawn, king-to-king pair-to-pair play, and use their strengths to avoid weaknesses.

"It seems that Leonard has no intention of competing directly with Wang Feng on the field. It's a very smart way of playing."

In the first quarter of the game, Leonard was not even the main attack point. He only took 3 shots in the whole process, hit 1 three-pointer, and scored 3 points.

The main point of the Raptors' attack is the inside.

The inside combination of Siakam and Gasol is obviously better than the Lakers.

Siakam scored 3 points on 2 of 5 shots in the first quarter, Gasol beat Lopez inside, 5 of 3 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 8 points and 4 rebounds, in addition, Danny Green also played outside , 4 of 2 three-pointers scored 6 points.

Relying on the excellent performance of many players, the Raptors scored 25 points in the first round, which is quite a good performance.

It's just that the Lakers scored more in the first quarter, reaching 31 points.

Wang Feng's score in the first quarter was actually not that high. Leonard did nothing on the offensive end, and almost all his energy was put on defending Wang Feng. Not only Leonard, but the Raptors also arranged a very mobile team. Siakam is lurking on one side. Once Wang Feng breaks through to the basket, he will immediately step forward and form a double-team with Leonard.

The lethality of a double team dominated by Leonard is still relatively high.

因此王峰首节比赛出手7投3中，三分球3中1，只得到7分。

The problem is that the Lakers now have more than just one Wang Feng.

The second head of the team, Jimmy Butler, stepped forward at this time.

The one in charge of defending Butler was Danny Green, a standard 3D player who made his living by three-pointers and defense, and was once selected to the best defensive second team.

Green's defense is very good, but it is obviously not enough to deal with Butler.

Butler made 6 of 5 shots in the first quarter. Almost all of his offenses were running without the ball, cutting into the basket and scoring layups. As a result, he also caused two defensive fouls, 4 of 3 free throws, and scored 13 points in a single quarter.

The role of the Lakers' introduction of Butler was fully reflected in the finals.

When the opponent strictly guards against Wang Feng and puts the whole team's defensive focus on Wang Feng, Butler can replace Wang Feng as the Lakers' main offensive point, without greatly affecting the Lakers' scoring rhythm.

Not only that, Butler also has a good passing assist ability, can rely on assists to help other teammates score, coupled with his own defensive ability that has been selected to the best defensive team many times, even if he is not as good as Scottie Pippen, but Also fully qualified for Pippen's positioning role in the Bulls.

The game entered the second quarter, and the situation was still not much different.

The Raptors wanted to change their defensive strategy and strengthen their defense against Jimmy Butler, but just tentatively relaxed their defense against Wang Feng. The latter immediately warned the Raptors with a long-range three-pointer. Dragon team, who is the focus of their defense?

Wang Feng is different from Butler. Once his offensive end is liberated, he can end the suspense of the game in a short time!

Therefore, the Raptors can only continue to use the targeted defensive tactics of the first quarter. The final result is that Leonard made 2 of 1 shots in the second quarter and only scored 5 points including free throws. Wang Feng made 3 of 2 shots and made 5 free throws. 4 hits and 9 points.

Raptors coach Nick Nurse was on the sidelines, pacing back and forth.

No hurry is false.

The Raptors' defensive strategy against Wang Feng is already quite high-level, with Leonard accompanying him all the way, and Siakam assisting in double-teaming at any time, but the result?
7 points in the first quarter, 9 points in the second quarter, and 16 points at halftime.

Although this score is not high compared to Wang Feng’s usual 25+ points in the half, but with 16 points in the half and 32 points in the game, the shooting percentage can also be maintained at around 45%. This can be called a successful defense. ?
