Super Small Forward

The Lakers offense, Liu Ren holds the ball high. 【Full text reading】

The 76ers now defending Liu Ren is Tony Roten. Roten was selected in the lottery area. He still has some strengths in college. His characteristic is that he has very good defensive skills. He was very good in college. Defense.

But in the NBA, Roten's defense has some problems, and his thin body makes his defense lack of aggressiveness.

In addition, he is a very honest young man. He is not even careful about how to deal with the opponent. He just defends according to the normal defense.

A player who can be called a good defensive player is either aggressive, such as Liu Ren, or cautious, such as Bradley, or he can be stalked.

But Rothen is not. After entering the NBA, he showed a wave of "real textbook-level defense" in the Grizzlies, and then was sent to the 76ers by the Grizzlies for a second round.

In the second round of the lottery, you can see what happened to the Grizzlies who wanted to make the defense stronger.

As for Rotten’s starting lineup after coming to the 76ers, he still had a three-pointer. The defensive skills that can be described as excellent are not up to the level of "good" required by the Grizzlies, but they are not bad. Teammates in the assassin transition period are still possible.

Roten's defense is one feature-positive!

Very decent defense, and then he was smashed into the basket by the brutal Liu Ren.

"Why are you stars so unreasonable? Be civilized!" The tragedy in Roten's heart.

Knoll, who was inside the 76ers, made up the defense for the first time and entered the NBA as a defensive player. Knoll is too aware of Roten's shortcomings.

It is indeed a defensive genius who almost became the No. 1 pick by defense. Although 2013 was a minor draft year, it is enough to see how good Knoll's defense was in college.

But Liu Ren didn't care about Nuoer's replenishment, and just vacated the air, he had to deduct it!

If it were to stand alone on the inside line, Liu Ren would still be afraid of Nuoer's bounce and blocking sense of smell, but in such a rushing situation, Nuoer's thin body...

Liu Ren simply rushed up and jumped into the air to confront Noel and layup violently!

"Beep"

The referee's whistle blows, defensive foul!

Knoll shot Liu Ren's arm in the air when he lost to Liu Ren. Liu Ren had already shot!

Goal and penalty!

It would be great if Liu Ren's free throws were more accurate, but it was a pity that he didn't score.

8 to 6, Liu Ren bit the score.

Still the same sentence, it is normal to be unable to prevent it, and the offensive is up!

Liu Ren scored 2 points just now and missed an additional penalty. Knoll, who grabbed a free throw rebound, immediately passed it to the little assassin. The little assassin immediately started. The 76ers quickly ran back and ran back. This time the Lakers kept up and returned to defense, but All the attention of the Lakers was on the path of the little assassin, Covington followed up, and Knoll's empty connection, and Thomas Robinson was ignored!

Thomas Robinson followed up from behind Liu Ren who was chasing the little assassin.

Clarkson, another Lakers chasing to the three-second zone, was too late to block Thomas Robinson. He could only hug Thomas Robinson, but Thomas Robinson threw the ball to the basket in the air and scored!

The Lakers played a two-plus one, and the 76ers immediately returned one! However, Liu Ren didn't make a penalty, but was opened by the opponent.

6 to 11, the Lakers are 5 points behind!

The 76ers started the game and D'Antoni couldn't help but call a timeout.

"Defensive! Be sure to guard the opponent! Strengthen the outside rotation, Hassan, you replace Paul, keep the inside line, other people keep an eye on the opponent's outside line, don't let the opponent fight back..."

Now D'Antoni's emphasis on defense has not surprised Liu Ren.

Liu Ren was put in the position of his best defensive free agent.

This defensive free agent, Liu Ren has never heard of it before. It is probably D'Antoni’s own original, because no team has ever made a zone defense like the Lakers, because it is impossible for a team to get him and Green, The defensive combination of Whiteside and Antetokounmpo.

Even to play a defense, Liu Ren was very interested in what D'Antoni had in his head.

The Lakers changed, Whiteside replaced Gasol, the goal is obviously to strengthen the defense.

Liu Ren also devoted himself to defense, and the Lakers' offensive core became Kobe.

Liu Ren is now the Lakers with the strongest offensive ability, yes, but Kobe has the most offensive methods. With sufficient physical fitness, Kobe's role on the offensive end is no less than that of Liu Ren.

As the offensive arrow, Kobe has more selectivity in his play style. Of course, this selectivity refers to high-position singles, low-position singles, three-point singles, various singles...

After returning from the timeout, the Lakers began an oppressive defense. There was Whiteside, the ruler of the three-second zone, on the inside. The other four Lakers ran out to defend outside shots and the small assassin breakthrough, directly ignoring Thomas Robinson.

As for the 76ers, it’s a lot more difficult for the little Assassin to break through. Once he is double-teamed, the safest choice is Thomas Robinson. Although Thomas Robinson is No. 5 in the 12th draft year. Show, but he will be reduced to three years, changing four teams, and finally being dumped to the 76ers, which shows that he is not only short, but also technical.

But fortunately, the impact is still there, and it is very hard. After receiving the ball repeatedly, he forced to the basket and scored, which did not put the 76ers' offense into a particularly stagnant state.

In the ninth minute of the first quarter, the Lakers narrowed the point difference to only 1 point, only one point behind 22 to 23.

However, there was an obvious problem with the 76ers. When the main scorer became Thomas Robinson, it was known that their very sharp offense was interrupted recently.

The 76ers called a timeout, and Coach Brown finally found his presence and began to change.

D'Antoni also began regular substitutions. By the end of the regular season, Kobe couldn't play more.

Both teams were replaced with substitutes, and the Lakers routinely replaced Jeremy Lin, McCollum, Nick Young, Antetokounmpo, and Whiteside.

Liu Ren was also replaced to deal with the 76ers. Although one point is behind, even if D'Antoni is a bit afraid of the team that has beaten them three times in a row, the opponent is third from the bottom! D'Antoni can't let Liu Ren play for too long.

If it weren't for the fact that the fans were too angry about the Lakers' consecutive losses to the 76ers, they were afraid of capsize in the gutter again, saying that D'Antoni would let Kobe and Liu Ren rest.

For the Sixers, Imel Smith, Jason Richardson, Luke Bamot, Chris Johnson and Henry Sims.

Sometimes I really don’t know this. Who would pay attention to the 76ers' lineup before, only noticed them during the draft. But a closer look shows that the 76ers actually have so many role players!

If you really want to talk about the depth of the lineup, it is estimated that only the Lakers in the entire NBA can hold down the 76ers.

There are too many Sixers to make other teams look forward to the bench. Immel Smith averaged 12 points and 6 assists per game last season. He probably also had this statistic before the little assassin came. Of course, after the little assassin came, both of them were both tall. He can only play point guard, of course he can only play as a substitute.

Jason Richardson, the former dunk king, averaged 9 points per game as a substitute this season, 17 points per game in his career, and 2253 per game in his peak season.

Barmot, a brutal small forward who averaged 7 points and 5 rebounds per game in his career.

Chris Johnson, although he was undrafted, was rated as the most energetic substitute, capable of running, two meters tall and one hand three-pointer.

Henry Sims, who was also undrafted, had no place in the Cavaliers and was replaced by the 76ers who had been exhausted by a bunch of second-round picks after the All-Star last season. Who knows that the Cavaliers have been pursuing a big man but sent him away. He came to the 76ers and immediately averaged 117 per game. After the end of last season, he got a three-year middle class and was regarded as Embiid. Although Embiid was reimbursed, he was the first substitute for Knoll. His shortcoming was that he could not defend well, but his scoring and rebounding were really good.

Before the Sixers received attention this time, their state was probably the same as the state of the old assassin Isaiah Thomas when the Knicks general manager. It's just bad, the big contract veteran health team, a player other teams look down on.

Then in 2010, when Stoudemire joined, people suddenly discovered that the Knicks had accumulated so many good role players?

The Sixers are probably in the same situation now.

The 76ers didn't have any vitality before, mainly because they didn't have a core or a superstar to lead the team. What's the use of a bunch of role players, they are just role players.

Liu Ren looked at the latest version of the 76ers player report given by the assistant coach and was stunned.

The little assassin later became more and more powerful and was regarded as a superstar. It was not only his data, but also the role players he should have led the Celtics to use the Big Three to trade back into the top four in the Eastern Conference. He has a bunch of role players, he can do great things!

"Isaiah Thomas seems to be going to shine everywhere! This combination of role players is not worse than the Celtics! What if Embiid really has the legendary strength of the new generation dream after his return? "
