Tang Qian was overwhelmed inside, but when the opponent mainly attacked and defended the Lakers' perimeter, it still had an effect.
Just like the last game against the Nets, they mainly cut off the connection between the outside line and the inside line. As for the inside line, they will not double-team. Anyway, they know that their team's inside line configuration is extremely poor. Unless they fight hard, the effect will be very poor. It is not as good as
It is much easier to specifically block and interfere with the passing route in the outside pass. After all, Tang Qian is now a heavy center weighing 291.3 pounds, and his strength is also outstanding. If you are pushed up by him like this, do you think these 76ers insiders don't feel pain in their hearts?
?Don’t worry? Don’t want to cry?
It’s just that I can’t help it? I’m an insider.
Look at Frank Admir, who is the main starter and averages 2+4 per game. He almost collapsed on the court. He is only 208cm tall and has a small body of only 240 pounds. Being bumped back and forth like this, he
I simply didn’t want to touch the ball in the paint for several days, so when I heard that the head coach changed his court strategy, he was the happiest person.
He looked at head coach Brett Brown's face and almost picked him up and kissed him.
Let me go, I'm just a player here to make fun of myself. I probably won't stay in the NBA after this season. There's no need for me to be ravaged by this kind of insider monster before I leave. I
I just want to receive 6 million US dollars in 2 years and then live comfortably. I don't have any big ambitions.
The Lakers' outside play was abnormal again tonight. With Butler's poor touch, the outside ability to create scores completely failed. Ariza tried to stand up, but when he was in singles, he really deserved to be a scumbag.
His title is... quite average. No wonder he couldn't sit still as the pseudo-boss of the Rockets. His personal ability is still too poor. His best position in the NBA is still a 3D player. He can no longer be regarded as a 3D player.
too much.
Butler has only recently begun to take on the heavy responsibility of outside offense, but it is a world of difference for him to have Jeremy Lin's scoring points and not. Jeremy Lin, first of all, his breakthrough scoring is at the top level in the NBA.
The data proves that he is the best in the league in this aspect. This season, under the leadership of his mentor D'Antoni, he has averaged the best season average of his career. Without one 18+ scoring point, Butler suddenly became the best player in the league.
He feels that the intensity of the outside defense he faces has increased a lot. He has just gotten used to the one-on-one outside defense, and now it has become more than one dozen. It is very easy for his opponent to help defend him. He also feels that he has a little bit of energy tonight.
I played very reluctantly and my rhythm was completely out of shape.
Butler only averaged 13+ points per game last season, and his shooting percentage was less than 40%, only 39%. This season, his ability has improved, but he still needs to adapt. Especially in this situation, he has become the only independent scoring point from the outside.
, this is the first time he has encountered it this season. Did he not have such an opportunity in the Bulls before? So his performance is a bit unstable, and you can’t blame him. Who hasn’t had a process of getting used to and adapting? Even Jordan, Kobe and James
, they also slowly got used to it and adapted through a lot of leveling time. The NBA is not a low-level league. If you want to become a stable independent scoring point, it is impossible without the point process.
It's not realistic either.
And that's the problem again. Jimmy Butler has the potential to become an All-Star, and he can even be a low-profile version of the offensive and defensive team. In some ways, he is similar to Pippen. But once he invests too much on the offensive end, he will immediately lose his ability.
The defensive end will be down, and his scoring ceiling is also limited. This is similar to Pippen. He plays the team's second scoring point and the first scoring point. In fact, the difference in scoring is not big, and the improvement will not be too obvious. He
This game consumed too much physical energy on the offensive end. This style of play was something he had never encountered before. He was not Kobe. It was the first time that he became the only defensive focus of the opponent's perimeter. He was still unable to bear it for the time being. Moreover, this
It was still the case when Brown, the head coach of the 76ers, gave up on the inside and fully strengthened the outside defense. It was a bit unlucky for Butler to encounter this situation when he became the only outside offensive core for the first time.
At the end of the game, especially in the second half, he only made 2 of 12 shots, and only scored 6 points including free throws. With him holding back, the Lakers became even more demoralized. Tang Qian was once again unable to use the inside line, resulting in
The Lakers were overtaken by the opponent in the end and lost 99-104, 5 points at the Wachovia Center.
Tang Qian scored 31 points, 24 rebounds, 4 blocks and 1 steal in the game. It looked good, but it should have been more.
In the end, the ball never reached his hand, which made him very depressed and annoyed.
So at the post-match press conference, Tang Qian pointed out the problem directly:
I hope I have the ball in my hands at the critical moment, rather than letting me watch the show on the offensive end!
Of course, this is what he meant. Jimmy Butler's face didn't look good during the entire press conference, but Tang Qian didn't care, because in his opinion, this game should be winnable. Even if the team is missing Jeremy Lin
Without the system operation points, it would not be possible to lose to the Philadelphia 76ers, but Butler was playing in extremely inefficient singles at the end, wasting a good situation, otherwise Tang Qian thought that he would not have lost anyway.
In fact, Butler has always been an ambitious person. In the end, he was sent away due to internal strife in the Bulls of the original time and space.
Wade has conflicts with him, Rose has conflicts with him, and even Noah, who has played alongside him for a long time, criticized him for beating him too harshly and being the boss all day long, which is disgusting, and Rondo, who has been with the Bulls for a while
, also criticized Butler for his lack of leadership. In addition, the final result was that Butler left the Bulls, and you know that his ambitions are a bit untenable.
His strength is good and his defense is top-notch, but he still falls short of being the boss of a strong team.
This was something Pippen also experienced back then. Do you think Pippen would be so content with being the "second child of the millennium" all his life? He also tried many competitions, including that year when Jordan retired to play baseball. He was working hard to prove himself.
moment. But everyone has seen the results. The Bulls are still good and their record is acceptable, but they are still far away from the championship.
Including a very classic interview scene from that year. When a reporter asked Jordan whether he would be the boss or the second child when he returned to the Bulls, Jordan directly interrupted the reporter and said: Sorry to interrupt you, he has been doing this for a while.
I am working hard to improve and reach my current level. He is a good star. But there are some things that great stars can do every night, but good stars can only do it once or twice occasionally. I think Pippen understands this very well.
The difference between the two.
Yes, Qiao Shen was so direct in his words back then. Otherwise, could a team win three consecutive championships twice? That’s too much to think about.
If you want to win three consecutive championships, the team must be as close as steel, and there must be no internal strife. And if you want to achieve this situation, can it be achieved by just talking and relying on the face of a good man? No. Jordan
I know very well that we must achieve the goal of "no two days in the sky and no two masters in the country". Otherwise, no matter how good the team's lineup is, it will only win the championship once or twice.
If you want to create a true dynasty, don't even think about it.
Butler is a typical person with ambitions. Now he feels that his offense has improved and he is defensive. He can be said to be a great person who can become an offensive and defensive superstar. This kind of person should not play the role of second-in-command in the team. It seems that
, Pippen was better than him back then, with higher defense and more comprehensiveness. If he was placed on any weak team or an ordinary strong team, he would be the leader of the team.
But if he is on the Bulls and you are on the Lakers, you must listen to me.
There is only one boss in this place, and there will always be only one.
With 55 wins and 18 losses, the Lakers began a losing streak.
Tang Qian's MVP ranking also fell out of the top three.
At the same time, neither the Best of the Week nor the Best of the Month had anything to do with him, and those who didn't like him began to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
For example, top player Brian Windhorse said in his personal column: In terms of empty cuts, I think the Lakers' No. 29 is still the invincible No. 5 in the league. Unfortunately, basketball is a game of winning, not
Than how much data you can get, right?
As soon as the word "empty chop" came out, many people started to quote it, and then they began to apply it to Tang Qian, as if they wanted him to get a "empty chop" in addition to being "burned".
"That's when I felt comfortable.
Sports columnist Jason Whitelock also said: I wonder if some people’s tadpoles are just in vain. Hey, I didn’t say anything to anyone. You don’t need to think too much. I was just talking about someone.
These were all things that Tang Qian could expect. He had a tense relationship with these people, so as soon as the Lakers lost, they would of course be eager to show up to make their presence felt. What really left him speechless was that Jimmy Butler, in addition to being separated from him,
He didn't say a word during training all day. On April 1st, during the game against the New Orleans Pelicans, he directly applied for the "injury list."
It seems to be that I had a bad stomach that night and my condition is serious. I have to go to the hospital for examination and cannot play.
At first Tang Qian thought it was just an "April Fool's Day" joke. After all, the West likes to do this kind of thing. But when he confirmed the news before the game, he lowered his head and the low pressure suddenly swept over Staples.
The home team locker room at the Stade Center.
At this time, you give me a choice, right? You give me a demonstration, right? You think you are indispensable, right?
Tang Qian suddenly said to the entire locker room: "Since some people really want to stay on the injured list, well, let them stay until his stomach pain is gone." This word reached Jimmy.
In Butler's ears, he is disdainful because he does not believe that the current Lakers team can win without him. Do you really think you are O'Neal? Olajuwon? Kareem Abdul-Jabbar? You
Your face is really big. I want to see how you can play and win without me. I think the title "empty chopper" is quite suitable for you.
Huh, if you lose miserably in the next game, if you don't come and beg me, I will never come back.
Thinking of this, Butler turned off his mobile phone at home. It seemed that there was someone on the team who had a good relationship with him.
What is the way to deal with such a capable but recalcitrant person? Give him good advice? Take the initiative to seek peace.
Get the hell out of here! Since you don’t want to compete and you want to show off to me and show your own importance, then I’ll... let you freeze like a popsicle on the injured list! I want to see you
During the contract year, we have been suppressing you, and you will not beg for mercy in the end!
In the end, did you take the initiative to stand up and apologize to me and the entire team?
It is estimated that Jeremy Lin will fully recover before the playoffs. This period of time is just for him to rest. There is no point in forcing a comeback. If he is injured again, the playoffs will be difficult. However, Ariza was still in this game
After his comeback, he is still relatively dedicated, and he has more feelings for the Lakers than Jimmy Butler.
Nick Young's side is estimated to have 1-2 games left, so now, the Lakers have truly entered a period of employment shortage.
Due to the wave of injuries, this team is now full of injured players and cannot even be considered sub-healthy.
As veteran players of the Lakers, Sacre and Yi Jianlian wanted to come over to appease the emotional fluctuations of Lakers No. 29, but unexpectedly, the latter directly looked at the audience with cold eyes and said: "Tonight, who will
If you're lazy, don't blame me for being rude!"
"If we lose tonight, I will eat Butler's jersey!"
“Nothing left!!!”
I, I guess, this guy is angry, really angry. Sacre has experienced the Lakers for several seasons. He clearly remembers what happened to the Lakers’ No. 29 last season.
Facing Howard, how did he treat Carlos Boozer in this season's preseason training camp? He got angry, it was incredible.
When Thackeray saw that Yi Jianlian seemed to want to say something else, he immediately grabbed the latter and whispered: "Yi, don't go over there. Tan is angry. This is no joke. Don't go over and touch her."
His bad luck. Otherwise it will be very miserable." Yi Jianlian was startled and asked: "We are all teammates, how can it be miserable? He won't get angry with us, right?" "Why not?" Thackeray's voice
He lowered his voice and said, "Yi, you don't know. Tong is usually easier to talk to. As long as you train hard and work hard, it will be fine. But when he gets angry... his teammates won't let him go."
Yi Jianlian was a little stunned at first, but after hearing this last sentence, she didn't know what to say.
"Really, Yi, I have seen him. If Perm gets angry, his teammates will also be beaten."
"I'm definitely not kidding you."
"Have you seen that he no longer calls Jimmy's name? This is a trend. Oh, idiot, I tell you, you have to fight hard tonight, otherwise the situation may be very bad." Thackeray
After saying that, he lowered his head to tidy up his shoelaces. Yi Jianlian was still a little confused or couldn't believe it and said: Team, my teammates beat me up??? This, is this fake?
Isn’t it now about harmony, unity, and brotherly basketball? Isn’t it the way I open it that’s wrong???
Suddenly, Yi Jianlian remembered something. This guy, not to mention the rumors circulating, it seemed that he really gave Dwight Howard a slap in the face during the game broadcast. Of course, after the game, the whole team claimed that it was
Tang Qian helped Howard "fight bugs." But, bug hunting? I've spent so much time at the Staples Center, how come I've never seen any bugs?
Is this guy really that crazy?
Yi Jianlian glanced at the old Lakers players and found that all of them had their heads lowered, with no expressions of disapproval at all.
Huh, it’s just empty slashing, right? You call me “empty slashing Tang”, right? Okay, okay, I’ll go on a killing spree tonight... hack everyone to death!!!
I want to see if after my crazy output, I still cut in vain.
Just wait and see.
PS: I will take a rest tonight as usual and try to break out the 10,000 words tomorrow. Oh, Xiao Zi is really hardworking~ Xiao Zi will be exhausted if there is more~ woo woo~
