NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 377 James: Let the horse come
Regarding the question of who is better between Wade and Leonard, there is actually no need to entangle too much. Wade’s peak period was undoubtedly during the 06-10 season. The explosive power is constantly reduced, and the breakthrough ability is seriously affected. Although he still has the strength of the All-Star level, he has not reached the height of the MVP.

But Leonard is different. During the 18-21 season, it was the peak period of Leonard's career. Although Leonard's attendance rate has plummeted since 21, at least at this stage he is absolutely healthy and at his best. state.

Therefore, comparing Leonard in this period with Wade in the period when Janeway partnered, Leonard must be stronger.

There is no problem with letting Leonard act as the team's main attacker at the beginning. Even if Butler is a very strong forward defender, there is no way to completely limit Leonard's level of scorer.

……

The Lakers had the ball, and James avoided Wang Feng to play, but when it was Wang Feng's turn, he wanted to stare at James and play.

Although James still has defensive ability now, he can only be regarded as the upper-middle level of the league, which is far behind Leonard. After all, at his age, it is very rare to be able to maintain the top level of the league on the offensive end.

Holding the ball and standing at a 45-degree angle outside the three-point line on the right, standing in front of Wang Feng is the Clippers' defensive leader Leonard.

But like James, Wang Feng also raised his hand and called for the pick-and-roll.

Unlike James, who was an inside center who came out to pick and roll, the Lakers ran over to cover Wang Feng's pick and roll, but it was small forward Ingram.

The quality of Ingram's pick-and-roll, which is a bit thin, is actually not very good, but it also hindered Leonard to some extent.

The pick-and-roll called by Wang Feng is threatening and no one dares to underestimate it. After all, he has a three-pointer that is no less than Curry or even more stable, and his shooting speed is amazing.

As long as Wang Feng is given a little space, he will dare to pull out directly!
Therefore, although Leonard can quickly bypass Ingram's defense, in order to avoid giving Wang Feng a chance, James, who is in charge of defending Ingram, still bit the bullet and stepped forward.

On the other side, after the pick-and-roll, Ingram didn't look back, and went straight to the basket.

Although Leonard wanted to double-team Wang Feng with James, Wang Feng, who averaged 10+ assists per game in the regular season, would definitely send a beautiful alley-oop counterattack to Ingram, so he could only grit his teeth and keep up with Ingram. Don't give Wang Feng a chance to pass the ball.

Only in this way, a 1V1 heads-up situation between Wang Feng and James appeared.

"Don't you want to hit me alone? I'm here, let the horse come over!"

Seeing the situation so far, James said simply.

He wanted to avoid the duel with Wang Feng, not because he was really afraid of Wang Feng, but because he thought it would be more beneficial to the victory of the game.

The 36-year-old James has already passed the age of fighting bravely, and the accumulation of personal honor and the improvement of his historical status are what he values ​​most now.

But after all, he is a legendary superstar who has ruled an era. Can Lian Po still be able to eat when he is old?

When James is fully serious, the sense of oppression that should be engraved in his bones still exists.

Such James, let Wang Feng can't help cheering up.

This season, Wang Feng has surpassed James in the overall rating, with an overall rating of 98, the highest among all active players.

But even so, Wang Feng felt that something was missing. Even if he easily swept and eliminated the Clippers that eliminated James in the first round last season, he still did not feel the joy of defeating the old king.

Rather than saying that Wang Feng defeated James, it is better to say that the Lakers defeated the Clippers. After all, Wang Feng had Butler, Ingram and other good players by his side, and the Clippers only had James at that time.

But this time is different.

James has the strongest helper in his career, and the overall strength of the two teams is evenly matched. Even though James this season is no longer at the level of the peak Thanos Zhan a few years ago, he is still one of the strongest players in the league.

Being able to defeat James head-on in this Western Conference finals also forgets Wang Feng's obsession.

After finally traveling through time and obtaining the system, how could he not have a real contest with the strongest James of this era?
In the era of warriors, Wang Feng was just a soy saucer, at best it was icing on the cake.

Last season, the Clippers had a poor lineup and were invincible.

This season is already the last chance, because the longer the time drags on, the worse James' competitive state will be.

"call--!"

Taking a deep breath, Wang Feng suddenly accelerated the start, the master badge was activated in the first step, and accelerated to the left side of James.

The experienced James had already made a judgment first, and immediately moved his feet and posted Wang Feng.

But Wang Feng's breakthrough speed was too fast, and James was still half a beat behind, falling behind.

Taking advantage of the situation, Wang Feng accelerated further. After taking two steps, he jumped directly, and a powerful dunk slammed towards the basket.

"boom--!"

The basket creaked and squeaked, demonstrating Wang Feng's powerful strength and unparalleled destructive power.

James followed closely behind Wang Feng, and jumped up as Wang Feng took off, trying to catch up behind Wang Feng.

However, Wang Feng's take-off height was far beyond his expectation, and he failed to block the shot.

Looking at Wang Feng, James' eyes were full of his youthful appearance. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he was really old.

……

In the first few minutes of the game, the two teams fought inextricably.

Wang Feng continued to use his personal ability to create lethal scores, while on the other hand, Leonard was still the main scorer for the Clippers.

Although Wang Feng used the pick-and-roll to force a few shots, the seasoned James still knows how to win the game more efficiently.

However, the gap in the strength of the starting lineup still puts the Clippers at a disadvantage.

Compared with the Lakers, who are able to shoot from long distances in all five positions and have a great space advantage, the Clippers' center Jordan is a big drag.

There is no difference between Jordan and Howard in essence. Maybe his footsteps are slightly faster than Howard's, but that is also compared with the inside centers. Compared with the shorter centers in the small ball tactical system, he is still an extremely slow blue-collar center type. .

In this way, players who can only grab rebounds, protect the frame and catch the ball down are basically on the verge of being eliminated in the league. Unless they happen to have a suitable tactical system partner, there is no way out.

The Clippers are not a team that focuses on three-point shooting, but James, Leonard and even Lou Williams are all players who are good at attacking the frame. The presence of Jordan makes the interior extremely crowded, which is natural In disguise, it affected their effect of attacking the frame with the ball.
