king of defenders

Chapter 906

Meng Yun stopped outside the three-point line and looked at Thompson quietly.

Thompson is 201 cm tall, not much shorter than Meng Yun, and Thompson's defense is very good. The Warriors' small lineup last season was able to take the league by storm, and their record in the regular season almost broke the historical record. Green's defense has always been ignored, and the only thing that is praised is that Green is a very good defensive player.

However, Thompson is actually a very good defensive player. He does not rely on his body to defend like Green. He relies more on his mind and excellent defensive awareness.

These things are often not easy to see. You may not see how many blocks and steals Thompson has, but if you use the efficiency value, or the positive and negative value of the court to evaluate, you can clearly know that he is not only A good shooter, 3-and-D player, and a good defender.

Otherwise, Cole may have changed another person to defend Meng Yun instead of Thompson.

After all, Meng Yun is the Heat's strongest scoring point and the absolute core. His ability has been proven time and time again, and no one dares to underestimate him anymore.

"Huh." Thompson lowered his center of gravity, opened his hands, and looked at Meng Yun calmly, with serious eyes.

If it was last season, he wouldn't be like this.

However, this season's Meng Yun has undergone tremendous changes compared to last season. Last season, he was very talented, but young and immature, with obvious advantages and also obvious disadvantages.

But this season, from the regular season step by step, to the three rounds of playoffs, Meng Yun is like a piece of jade that has been carved, and like a stubborn iron that has been tempered, shaved off the dross, and condensed Essence, he has become more mature and restrained, he has lost his youthfulness and immaturity, and also lost his shortcomings and shortcomings.

But this did not hinder Meng Yun's sharp spirit. It was three rounds of playoff battles and seven fierce battles in the Eastern Conference finals, finally defeating the sharpness accumulated by the Cavaliers.

Thompson doesn't understand the broad and profound Chinese culture, even though he is very interested in China, and even signed a Chinese sports brand, if it were another person, he would be able to understand that what Meng Yun has is called momentum!
The momentum is like a broken bamboo, and there is no way forward.

Be not afraid of anyone!

"laugh!"

The next moment, Meng Yun suddenly started, his right shoulder sank, Thompson's eyelids twitched, but he didn't move his weight casually: "Fake, I have studied his breakthrough, this is fake."

Sure enough, Meng Yun was just a fake move, and didn't really break through from the right side. After his right shoulder sank, he changed direction, handed the ball to his left hand, and broke through from the left side.

Thompson was not fooled at all, so he adjusted his center of gravity in time and moved to the right (compared to Meng Yun's left), trying to get stuck in the position first and block Meng Yun's breakthrough route.

However, there was a blur in front of him, and a strong wind was blowing. Thompson was shocked to find that when he stood up, Meng Yun had already passed by him, more than half of his body.

"It's too fast!" Thompson smiled wryly.

All the judgments were correct, and the response was correct, but he still underestimated Meng Yun's speed, and the quick start at that moment made him half a beat slower after all.

After passing Thompson, Meng Yun took advantage of the situation and went inside. Pachulia hadn't reacted yet, mainly because he didn't expect Meng Yun to attack as soon as he reached the frontcourt, and he didn't expect Thompson to be passed in one step. He didn't have time to stop him, so he could only Watching Meng Yun score a layup, he easily scored two points, turning the score into 2:0.

Thompson shook his head and ran forward.

The Warriors lineup can be regarded as one major and four minors, but Pachulia's role is more reflected in the defensive end, and he is basically nothing on the offensive end. After all, the team has three scoring machines such as Curry, Durant, and Thompson. Not to mention him, even Green, the "fourth giant", has nothing to gain on the offensive end.

Of course, Green's role is not reflected in the offensive end.

Green's role is reflected in defense and offensive organization. He is a point forward. Although Curry plays the No. 1 position, he is actually not a point guard. It's not that his passing is not good, but compared to passing, he The role on the offensive end is more important, and he is the kind of player who is biased towards shooting, and so is Thompson. Obviously Curry is not suitable for holding the ball for too long.

So Curry passed the ball to Green after he got to the frontcourt, and he started to circle the inside line, and then went around the outside line to find an opportunity to catch the ball and shoot, but he was followed by Meng Yun. With Meng Yun's speed, it was difficult for him to throw Open, just circled the inside lane, slipped to the outside lane, and then stopped moving.

In fact, Cole knows this very well. He didn't let Curry defend Meng Yun, but it doesn't mean that Meng Yun will reciprocate and not defend Curry, so he didn't plan to open it from Curry early in the morning.

Green hits the ball to Pachulia, Thompson comes over from the other side, brushes past Pachulia, passes hand to hand, Pachulia helps set a screen, and then Thompson pulls up and shoots .

Swish!
The goal is still a three-pointer.

"Hey, the first one goes in."

"It seems that Clay's hand feels good today."

"Haha, the three-pointer from the very beginning, I'm afraid the Heat won't be able to handle it."

The Warriors fans in the auditorium laughed and discussed.

What is the scariest thing about the Warriors?Of course it is their offense, their rainy three-pointers, any team will have a headache when they encounter a three-point team like the Warriors.

In the past, when other teams encountered the Warriors, they tried to suppress the opponent's three-pointers and prevent the opponent's three-pointers from shooting, at least to let the opponent's three-pointers rain as late as possible.

But today Thompson scored the first three-pointer, and the game has just started, how can the Warriors fans not be excited?

That's a good sign!

"You can't let the opponent's three-point shot go away." Meng Yun and Wade exchanged a look, and then gestured to his teammates, "Prevent outside three-pointers."

"Ah."

"clear."

The teammates nodded.

The Heat launched an offense, Meng Yun came to the frontcourt, Thompson came up again, his expression became more and more serious, but this time Meng Yun didn't plan to play singles, he asked for a pick and roll, feinted a shot, attracted the defense and then gave the ball to Wei Germany, all the people were pulled to the right, leaving a large area on the left.

Wade singles.

Thompson's first three-pointer is really not a good thing for the Heat, so not only must they defend the opponent's three-pointer on the defensive end, but also attack the opponent on the offensive end to contain the opponent's momentum, otherwise once the opponent is let If it gains momentum, it will be very difficult to guard against.

The reason why Wade is singled out instead of Meng Yunlai is actually the established strategy of the Heat. If Curry is added to defend Meng Yun, then Meng Yun will play. Now that Cole has changed and Curry defends Wade, then It was Wade who came to play.

In short, whoever Curry defends against will be singled out!
