I Am in the Same Year as Duncan Show

　　 Chapter 18 The Spurs' Strong Insider Strength

　　 After all, although Duncan's defense is very strong, it is impossible to cover all areas from outside the three-point line to the three-point line.

　　 The area where Duncan's defensive ability is the strongest should be between the free throw line and the three-second zone.

　　 Whether it is single defense or assist defense, Duncan's defensive ability can be regarded as the top presence in the league.

　　 Xu Liang strongly suspects that Duncan has a talent for defensive type.

　　 Even the level of this talent will not be lower than the Silver level.

　　Furthermore, Xu Liang will not face a particularly strong starter most of the time during the regular season, and he rarely encounters a defensive player of Duncan's level.

　　 Therefore, Xu Liang's current strength, playing a main substitute for the Spurs is absolutely no problem.

　　 Sometimes, if Popovich takes a break, Xu Liang may still be able to play the starting position.

　　 Looking at it now, whether Xu Liang plays with David Robinson or Duncan at the same time, the degree of each other's bonus is pretty good.

　　 If Xu Liang played with Duncan at the same time, he would be able to open up enough room for inside singles for Duncan.

　　 If Xu Liang plays with David Robinson at the same time, he can also provide more help for David Robinson to hit the basket and fight in the penalty area.

　　 Of course, Xu Liang is not high enough because of his personal strength and his understanding of the Twin Towers tactical system.

　　 There is no way to form a simplified version of the twin tower offensive system with the Spurs now two super insiders.

　　 So when Xu Liang cooperates with these two super insiders, he is more in a supporting position.

　　 But this is enough for the Spurs.

　　 After all, this year's Spurs insiders are really full of talent.

　　 Looking at it now, no team in the NBA this year has an inside configuration and inside depth that can compare with the Spurs.

　　 There is David Robinson, the top insider at his peak.

　　 The appearance is the peak, except for Tim Duncan, who lacks certain game experience.

　　 Very high-quality and powerful offensive substitute insider Xu Liang.

　　Very stable veteran Wil Peldo.

　　 Except for Wil Peldo, the other three of these four people, whether they are at the center or power forward position, can play alternately with each other.

　　 Among them, Xu Liang can play with the other three insiders at the same time.

　　Preparation Up to now, the Spurs' competitive state and all the preparations for Xu Liang's offensive ability improvement have been done to the extreme.

　　 If Xu Liang wants to continue to improve his offensive strength in the future.

　　 you need to wait for the system cheats after the start of the regular season.

　　 In fact, Xu Liang's current offensive rating is already close to the rating of an All-Star-level inside player.

　　 Even if 20 years later, he is already an All-Star-level inside player.

　　 And in the 90s, the era when the center position was strong and there were so many talents.

　　The strength and scoring of the inside players must at least have an offensive score of 90 points or more, and a defense and rebound score of 85 points or more.

　　 can say that he can touch the threshold of all-star insiders.

　　 After all, there are four major centers in front, and they have occupied four positions in the All-Stars in the East and the West.

　　 In addition to the four major centers, Mourning, Uncle Mu, Duncan, Webber, Garnett and so on are super insiders.

　　 In the NBA from the 1990s to the beginning of the 21st century, the competitive pressure of inside players was not weaker than the competitive pressure of outside players in the NBA after 2010.

　　 Even the competitive pressure of inside players during this period is more than that of later generations of outside players.

　　 More than two months, nearly three months of training, Xu Liang will begin preparations for Popovich’s verification on September 17th.

　　 After all, the previous games were training games with lower intensity.

　　 The time of each game is also controlled within half an hour.

　　 Therefore, it is not possible to fully see Xu Liang's own strength and the strength of the tactical system with Xu Liang as the core.

　　 And at this point in time, more than a month before the start of the new season.

　　 Popovich intends to find out Xu Liang's strength first.

　　 If any problems are discovered during this investigation, it is good that they can be adjusted in time in the next one and a half months.

　　 In addition, today’s test will also determine the entire offensive tactical system with Xu Liang as the core.

Is 　　 only used on the bench, or can it spread to some of the main starting players?

　　 This determines how much playing time Xu Liang can get in the upcoming new season?

　　 and Xu Liang's tactical position in the entire tactical system of the Spurs.

　　 You should know that the tactical system of any NBA team cannot be covered by a single tactic.

　　 After all, the tactical system used by the main players may not be suitable for the substitute players. The strength or personal characteristics of some substitute players may be more suitable for some simpler tactical systems.

　　In fact, the main tactical system of a team mainly refers to the tactical system used by the team's starters and main players.

　　 The tactical system used by other substitute players when they play is 90% different from the main tactical system.

　　 Today’s test is a 48-minute regular-season game ~www.readwn.com~ This game is not just the main players of the Spurs who survived last season will participate.

　　 also includes the remaining 10 unsigned players who have not been drafted and pursued short-term contracts after more than three months of continuous screening.

　　 So today’s game is also to finalize the list of players to be signed from among these players.

　　 In addition, the opponents are not completely fixed, and it is possible to change the players on the field against both sides during the game.

　　 In this way, let’s test the possibility and effect of cooperation between Xu Liang and several other main players.

　　 48 minutes of game time, the biggest problem for Xu Liang is actually the physical problem.

　　 Although it is said that after scientific training and practice, Xu Liang's physical fitness has been greatly improved compared to when he first joined the Spurs.

　　 But with Xu Liang's physical condition before, he played an average of about 35 minutes per game in the CBA.

　　 In the NBA, the competition is stronger and more competitive.

　　 This playing time will be further shortened.

　　 So although the physical fitness has improved, Xu Liang's physical fitness can support up to 30 minutes of high-intensity competition.

　　 In addition, if the high-intensity competition of more than 30 minutes is really carried out, Xu Liang's competitive state is likely to be greatly affected in the next few days.

　　 Therefore, Xu Liang’s regular game time is best controlled within 25 minutes.

　　 And today, it is obvious that Popovich hopes to test the limits of Xu Liang's abilities in all aspects, which will naturally allow Xu Liang to play for a while.

　　 So Xu Liang needs to consciously control his physical energy consumption during the game.
