Standing pretty old

Chapter 517 Controversy of Ideas
The confrontation between Er Niu and Howard in the first quarter is of course the biggest highlight of the game.

However, in the first quarter, it was someone else who really completed the mutual explosion on the offensive end and had the right to make the most shots.

For the Magic, it was Mr. Rashad Lewis who was billionaire, while for the Eagles, it was Josh Smith, the famous shooter of the Second Academy among Chinese fans.

Lewis made 5 of 4 shots in the first quarter, including 4 of 3 three-pointers. He scored 11 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.

The lunar eclipse did not make waves in the middle and long distances, and made solid use of air cuts and low post backs to score points. In a single quarter, he made 5 of 5 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 12 points and 3 rebounds.

Woodson may not be satisfied with the performance of the eclipse, because on the defensive end, the eclipse gave Lewis too much room for easy shots.

But Eclipse's performance on the offensive end is really outstanding. There are two cut goals and even against Howard's defense, the defense forcibly attacked the basket and succeeded.

Lunar Eclipse and Spark have known each other since kindergarten. They are both natives of Atlanta. Spark was the No. The marginal man Randolph Morris, the three together formed the "Three Musketeers" of Atlanta high school basketball.

In fact, they can all be regarded as winners in life, because they set their ambitions to enter the NBA when they were very young, and they worked hard all the way in their later life, and finally achieved their goals.

Eclipse once said during the team's training: "Dwight this guy used to play point guard, yes, believe it or not, when we were about 11 or 12 years old."

Eclipse always has a good laugh when this topic is brought up.Like Spark, this Sagittarius man has a bit of a funny personality most of the time, but in fact, he has always had positive ambitions and hopes that he can become an even better player.

At 30:28, the Eagles led the Magic at home by 2 points in the first quarter.

Ruan Erniu and Huo Hua were a little quiet in the second half of the first quarter. They each handed over the ball and let their teammates dominate the game.

It is only natural for Sparks to do this. He has always been the point of restraint on the offensive end of the Magic rather than the core of the playmaker. Ruan Erniu does not take the initiative to control the ball, but puts more experience on defense.

The Magic's offensive system has become more mature after a season of training by Van Gundy.

It is unreasonable to look at the current Magic from the perspective of last season. This is already a team with sufficient chemistry.

The same emphasis on three-pointers, the same emphasis on the combination of internal and external, the only difference is that the Eagles care more about the efficiency of offensive and defensive transformation, while the Magic is more traditional, focusing on killing opponents in offensive and defensive positions.

Yu Jia said in the studio: "Ruan Erniu had a very beautiful alley-oop performance in the first quarter, but he was not too excited. What do you think, Mr. Su?"

Su Junyang said: "In the Eagles' system, Ruan Erniu plays an extremely important role on both offense and defense.

We don't think he's excited enough to play, maybe it's just that he puts more experience on defense and connecting teams.

He scored 6 points in a single quarter, which is not a small amount. Under the confrontation with the Sparks, he also scored 8 rebounds and sent 2 assists, which proved that he performed very well in the first quarter. "

Naturally, the guest commentators from the Celestial Dynasty kept saying good things about Er Niu. In fact, the US side is not much different.

Barkley was in the commentary booth, and once again sang praises for Er Niu: "One quarter has passed, Superman flew over the metropolis, but the monsters of the Celestial Dynasty are still raging on the ground."

Reggie Miller focused his attention on other places. He looked at the technical statistics and said: "I don't care about the so-called No. [-] center battle. I just wonder if the two teams will create a single game tonight." A new record for three-pointers shot.

You know, in the first quarter that just passed, the two teams took 12 shots from beyond the three-point line, the Magic took 7 shots, and the Hawks took 5 shots. If they played a full game, would they take 50 shots? "

"So, what do you want to explain? Reggie? Long-range shooting alone will never become a championship!" Barkley once again expressed his views clearly.

Miller said, "Are you referring to the current Eagles team?"

Barkley paused, but still refused to admit it: "Whoever has such a low-post killer and rebounding monster like Kraft Nguyen can win the championship with any tactics. You are confusing concepts!"

Miller smiled and said, "Okay, I reserve my opinion."

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

The same is true for basketball. If it weren't for the fact that three-pointers can effectively improve the team's offensive efficiency, who would focus on training such skills?
If Ruan Erniu of the Hawks' bench heard what Miller said, he would definitely agree with his senior.

This is not an alumni friendship, but Ruan Erniu truly believes that three-pointers will become a future trend.

Some things, after a period of time, will taste new flavors.

For example, in the 07-08 season, in the Eastern Conference Finals between the Eagles and the Celtics, on the surface, the Eagles relied on the "Raptor Raid" to drag down the Celtics with super mobile small ball tactics, but in the real sense , What is the decisive condition for pulling the scores of the two teams apart?
Except for Ruan Erniu's rebound, it can only be Jon Jisen's three-pointer.

This is the key element to open the score between the two teams!
In the 5 life-and-death battles, Jon Jisen averaged 4.2 three-pointers per game, and his three-pointer shooting rate reached a terrifying 42%+.

Although this has the great containment bonus of the two bulls, but being able to seize the opportunity and throw the ball in also fully demonstrates Jon's ability to win at critical moments and the huge influence of the three-pointer on the direction of the game.

Conversely, the Hawks' only loss to the Celtics was caused by Pierce and Ray Allen making 10 [-]-pointers from beyond the arc.

After the Eastern Conference finals, Ruan Erniu already had a general idea about signings for next season, which is why the seemingly unreasonable trade of Marvin Williams for John Salmons came about. .

This transaction was once called a brain damage by countless experts this summer, thinking that there must be an ulterior motive in it.

However, in reality, this is a signal for the Hawks to form a three-point team, nothing more.

From this point of view, it is understandable for the lunar eclipse to want to practice hard for three points.

In addition to physical conditions, in this era, if you want to become a superstar, you must have reliable shooting skills, but shooting things also require talent.

Erniu thinks that Eclipse should remove his delusions of being an all-around shooter first, try to find his reliable shooting point, and find his most efficient shooting range as soon as possible.

There are already several ready-made examples in the NBA, such as Vince Carter, who likes to shoot three-pointers more and more as he gets older. This season, his three-point shooting percentage has reached 38.5%, which is already the percentage of first-class shooters. , but looking at the shooting area of ​​the UFO, oh shit, there are just a few fixed points, and you can count them without using one hand.

Of course, there is also Bruce Bowen, who almost turned a demigod into a mortal. His career three-pointers hit an astonishing 40%, how did it come about?Looking at the shooting hot zone map, it turns out that there are more dedicated (rare) and (fewer) shooting spots than Carter.

Now, among the names of this group of fake three-point shooters, Kraft Ruan should be added, well, according to the practice of the Celestial Dynasty, he should be called the little prince of the top three-pointer!
