The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

The Blazers were lucky. Wang Xiao's decision made them get Durant, and with Durant as the core of team building, he became one of the Western powers. He also stood out from the West for two consecutive years and reached the finals.

But the Blazers are unfortunate.

Because Wang Xiao chose Durant, they fired Wang Xiao, so they lost an excellent coach full of magical "color" color, and the other party went to the Wizards and turned the Wizards into a historical level. Super strong team.

In the finals last year, the Blazers encountered the Wizards, and they were swept away by 4:0 with no resistance. Now the two teams will meet for the second time in the finals. It is optimistic that the Blazers can beat the Wizards. Only a few local Portland sports newspapers still support their home team.

Many Blazers fans have thought about it. If the team owner and general manager did not expel Wang Xiao, but chose to believe him, what kind of team is the Blazers still? Is it possible to match the Wizards?

Of course, this is just a fantasy. The facts cannot be reversed. They can only look forward to miracles. Durant can lead the Blazers in a desperate fight with the enemy.

This is obviously just a wish.

The Wizards’ three strikers George, Leonard, and Green are here, even James has not been able to obtain benefits. Although Durant currently has no loss in attacking ability or even stronger than James, but other aspects are better than James. But still want to be inferior.

Moreover, even if Durant feels a hot scoring ability, the Wizards still have Curry Thompson, a pair of water splash brothers. The combined lethality of the two can be more terrifying than Durant.

Whether it is better than defense or more offensive, the Wizards are completely worthy of the trailblazer.

After defeating the Heat, no team in the entire league has qualified to block the Wizards from winning.

The first match between the two sides began on June 6 at the Wizards' home court.

The Wizards are on the regular lineup, Curry, Thompson, Leonard, George and Whiteside.

The Blazers' starting lineup on the other side made some adjustments.

Louis Williams, who had been playing the sixth man before, was mentioned as the starting position.

Due to injury in the regular season, Louis Williams only played more than 40 regular season games, almost all of them played off the bench, averaging 14.1 points and 3.6 assists per game.

Although this data is not particularly good, it has already surpassed the current starting point guard Andre Miller.

The 37-year-old Andre Miller's athletic level has fallen a lot compared to last season. While the average score has dropped to 5.9 points, the assists have dropped to 5.5 times. He now uses his own more time on the court. Experience helps pioneers control rhythm.

In the playoffs, in the face of high-intensity competition, Andre Miller's performance was very bad, the shooting rate was only over 30%, and he was in the disadvantage when facing most of the team's point guards.

The Trail Blazers will naturally not allow Andre Miller in this state to play against Curry, who may be the strongest scoring player in the league. Although Louis Williams has a very defensive ability, it is also very good. Better than Andre Miller.

The shooting guard's position is defensive player Wesley Matthews.

The small forward Durant, the power forward Aldridge, and the center Jordan Jr. have not changed.

The Blazers' head coach wanted Louis Williams to more or less restrain Curry on the defensive end, but this was obviously a fool's dream.

Curry is by no means Louis Williams' defense.

As soon as the game opened, Curry scored again and again, not only hitting three points on the outside, but also rushing into the inside with the ball to create a kill.

The efficient scoring rhythm made the Blazers extremely passive, and Durant on the other side failed to open the situation under Leonard's defense.

Compared to power forwards like James, Leonard still prefers to defend players like Durant who tend to be technical.

Of course, this does not mean that Leonard can prevent Durant from killing another duel in time and space. Durant has an absolute advantage in scoring, rebounding, assists and shooting percentage. Steadyly suppressed Leonard.

After all, Durant's height close to 2 meters 11 is much higher than that of Leonard, and Durant's extremely accurate mid-range shot can make the most of his height advantage.

Although Leonard couldn't prevent Durant, his restrictions on Durant were far greater than Louis Williams' restrictions on Curry.

The Wizards' offense is rich and outrageous, Curry, Thompson, George and even Leonard can attack.

On the Blazers side, before Louis Williams had grown up, the only one that could give Durant a certain degree of support on the offensive end was only power forward Aldridge. As for the other one of the Big Three, DeAndre Jordan ……Ha ha!

Jordan’s frame protection ability did make the Blazers scream when they first got him. With his presence, Durant and Aldridge, two players who don’t like to play inside, can have no psychological pressure. Of playing their favorite style on the outside.

However, with the increase of partner time, all kinds of shortcomings of Jordan also began to show up.

The first point is that the offensive ability is extremely scarce, basically can only rely on the basket to eat cakes and grab second offense after offensive rebounds.

The second point is that although Jordan has a strong frame protection ability, it is only very strong. As a blue-collar defensive player, his defensive ability is not as good as the Thunder center Dunne, and he has more defense. Instead of relying on personal defensive awareness and ability, they rely on amazing bouncing and wingspan.

Jordan's defense is a bit similar to Howard, but it is far from the horrible dominance of Howard on the defensive end.

In another time and space, Jordan has only won the honor of two best defensive battles and two rebounders. It is not even as good as the Bulls center Qiao Jin Noah on the defensive end.

The third and most fatal weakness is his free throw.

Without O'Neal and Howard's life, O'Neill and Howard's illness.

Little Jordan's free throws and O'Neal, Howard did not succeed, even worse, this also makes Jordan a lot of times will be deliberately targeted, became a shark hacking target.

In the past two years, the Blazers have never encountered the opponent's shark-cutting tactics. Even the finals of the last season were swept away. It is also related to Wang Xiao's extremely simple execution of shark-cutting tactics.

As long as Jordan's free throw did not improve, then he would become the Blazers' biggest hole on the court.

In fact, if it wasn't for the Wizards from the beginning, Wang Xiao didn't want to talk to them more than bb, just follow the procedure to cut the shark and walk away.

(Something happened today, only one is changed, sorry.)
