Chapter 1198 Well, I'm not interested in you anymore, rookie
The Lakers scored again, and the score was now 19-0.
The 76ers were really unlucky tonight. They met the Lakers, who had lost three games in a row. How could this not be unlucky? It was almost. Well, it wasn't almost. It was just taking it out on them. It was so unlucky. This
Naturally, it is impossible for a game to be broadcast live across the United States, so instead, the domestic broadcasts of China Sports Channel and Penguin Network are more popular.
By the way, which Lakers game right now is not extremely popular? No.
Tianchao Sports Channel, Yu Jia said: "The Lakers suppressed their opponents at the beginning of this game, and now it is entering garbage time. Yangyi, do you think there is still suspense?" Yangyi "brewing" for a while, but still only
Neng said: "There is not much suspense anymore. The 76ers have performed too poorly recently, and the Lakers are eager to win now. It is difficult to score a point, so why talk about winning?" Yu Jia feels the same way.
, but the host still had to continue the conversation, otherwise he would be "instructed" from above, so he could only forcefully find a topic to continue: "You know about the friction between Okafor and Tang Qian before the game started, what do you think about this?"
Does Okafor have a chance of winning the game?" Yangyi "dropped his book bag for a while," and then changed the subject: "No."
This made Yu Jia feel speechless. Aren't you usually very talkative? You talk to death every time, man, can you still have fun? Yangyi seems to be aware of his commentary partner.
With a smile on his face, he immediately understood and coughed: "Why do you say that? Because I think the strength of the two people is too different. As far as the current situation is concerned, Okafor has just entered the NBA.
The newcomer has great potential, but not now. What level of player is Tang Qian? He is a proper NBA superstar. In addition to the ultimate honor of MVP level, he basically has everything. Look, he is only an All-Star.
How long can Okafor struggle with a team that has enough defense? Let alone being the leader in blocks, rebounds, etc. If you ask me, this is just a gimmick and a promotional slogan. I don’t think there is any suspense in this matchup.”
This time, Yang Yang was right. Turning around, Okafor had to attack in the low post when he wanted the ball.
During this period, Tang Qian couldn't help but say: "Hey, buddy, you were too careless when you asked for the ball. You didn't even keep your position when you asked for the ball. If I want to destroy this pass, the probability is very high."
Cafu turned around and said: "You don't need to remind me! Dongfang Tang! I will kill you with this ball!"
Well, the young man is quite angry, so fine, as you wish.
Okafor made a half-turn in the low post and feinted a back shot, but his shot did not go in because the moment he took the shot, it was almost blocked again. "Damn it!" Okafor got angry and rushed to grab the ball. Oh, it's still there.
He really "robbed" it. Okafor was overjoyed and immediately prepared to attack again. However, the Lakers players were still staring at the ball from the outside, with no intention of going up to help. First of all, this was clear to the two people.
A showdown requires a one-on-one fight. Secondly, they don't think the Lakers' No. 29 will lose at all. This is just him playing.
Of course, Tang Qian gave this rebound to Okafor on purpose. He just wanted to see how much this young first-year rookie had not yet shown. Of course, his strength and state of mind are different.
Tang Qian now "enjoys" the challenge from the newcomer, waiting for the opponent to use all the skills he needs to use before knocking him down.
This is a "dark competitive mentality".
I'll give you a chance, let you perform, and then I'll knock you down.
On the bench of the Lakers, he directly opened a "private little bet" and said: Come on, come on, how many goals will be scored tonight. If you press three, you will pay 1.50, if you press two, you will pay 2.
The payout is 2.50 per one. The payout is 0.50 per bet for three or more. The payout is reverse. Anyway, it’s a small gamble. These people are also multi-millionaires. A few hundred dollars for a little fun is purely entertainment.
Unexpectedly, almost everyone was forced to score only one goal. It seemed that all the Lakers players were often ravaged and bullied by Tang Qian's defensive end. I was very impressed. At this time, Thackeray also came to join in and say
: "Um, is there anyone who can press zero? I want to press zero."
Zero? Not really, right? After all, Okafor is recognized as the No. 1 player in low-post rookie footwork. Looking down, they can feel the footwork strength of this 76ers rookie inside. In this era of explosive inside space,
, there are really not many people who can reach his level of footwork in the low post. So, zero is still not enough.
Really? Try to feint with a small center of gravity in the low position + turn around and lick the basket.
Hit the hat.
The basketball flew directly out of the Lakers' baseline.
"Don't worry, you still have a chance, do you have any tricks?" Tang Qian looked at Okafor and asked with a smile. This made Okafor even more angry and said: "Of course! Just wait and see!" Tang Qian said: "This
I know it without you having to tell me. Of course I will wait. But..." Laker No. 29's voice suddenly became deeper and said: "If you run out of tricks, then I won't be polite to you anymore.
Do you understand?"
"You're welcome? I still need you???" Okafor has not suffered the cruel blow later. He is still the arrogant college basketball star insider. Therefore, he can't stand others talking to him like this.
Damn it, I am always the one who is "polite" to others! When will it be my turn? This damn Oriental guy!!!
Anyway, the people in the 76ers don't have much morale, and they don't know whether they will stay in the team in the future. So if the core players of the team want the ball, then they will give it to them. If they don't give it to themselves, they won't get anything.
Good data, isn’t it?
It would also be nice to see the exciting offensive and defensive battle inside.
Moreover, the players of the 76ers have also seen Okafor's true strength in training. Apart from anything else, his low post footwork is really very solid and excellent. At least they don't think they can really beat Tang Qian. So.
Here it comes again, turning forward for a hand layup. This ball... I knew it couldn't go in even before I even looked at it. The moment he and Tang Qian physically confronted each other, their movements were deformed. In fact, it didn't go in. Tang Qian was stable against his core.
I gave a pressure cap easily.
"That's all you have? Is there anything else?" Tang Qian seemed a little disappointed, because this guy's footsteps are very good, but the combination with his body is so poor. Sometimes he even makes movements just for the sake of doing footwork.
It doesn't seem practical. This doesn't mean that gorgeous moves are bad, not at all. For example, Olajuwon is a typical example. Gorgeous moves can definitely be added. But the premise is that you must be able to hit it. Otherwise, it becomes
It's too flashy. This place is no longer the NBA, and the confrontational nature is completely different.
Bastard! You didn’t score again! I don’t believe it.
The Lakers didn't score the ball, the 76ers got the rebound, and Okafor once again asked for the ball in the low post.
"I told you that you can't get the ball like this, it's too loose." As soon as Tang Qian's words came out, Okafor became even more furious. He turned around and hit, trying to break through the bottom line, but it was a pity that Tang Qian was much stronger than him.
, it didn’t push in at all. It was even bounced out. This is the first time Okafor has encountered this situation after playing basketball for so many years. Okafor is a little angry, so angry that he is irrational. All he wants now is
Score one, prove it and then talk.
He used his signature move from his college days. If you have watched Okafor's college videos, you must be very familiar with this move. He holds the ball in the low neutral zone at the waist, plays a back shot, and then makes a small jump to use the counter rebound.
Step projection.
This action made Tang Qian feel good, but unfortunately, the essence did not have the effect. He did not push himself away when he pushed the person, so this small jump had to be farther. Okafor was slightly farther away from the basket.
There are no shooting points, so even if Tang Qian can't hit the ball, his hit rate is not high. However, it is still possible to hit the ball even if it is not high. This is not Tang Qian's original intention. His original intention is...
He stepped forward, jumped up from the ground, and gave Okafor a big blood cap in front of him.
The basketball was blocked and flew out. Rondo picked up the ball, made a layup and scored.
21-0, it has entered the customary "garbage time".
Tang Qian saw Okafor looking a little stunned and asked, "Is there any other way?"
"You..." Okafor wanted to say something, but found that his mind was confused and he couldn't say anything.
"No more? Then I am very disappointed. Your defense is not good and your offense is only at this level. It will be difficult for you to be my opponent in the future." Seeing the boring expression of Lakers No. 29, Okafor
He really lost his mind completely. He started to keep asking for the ball on the offensive end, and anyway, the team's task was to mess up, so the 76ers head coach Brett Brown didn't care much. And when facing Oka,
Everyone knows that Fu is dissatisfied, so there is no need for him to think about it so much.
If you want to play, just play, don't blame others if you make a fool of yourself.
That No. 29, his defense is not that of a first-class scorer. You have very few chances to score a frontal attack. Even a first-class scorer is not that easy to hit high marks. Unless he is a super scorer, it is about the same.
But how many super scorers are there in the entire league? Okafor? They don’t exist. Brett Brown has already come to the conclusion that this guy can’t possibly rise to that level. A quasi-first-class scorer is the limit.
In fact? This is still overestimating him.
Otherwise, his draft template is just Al Jefferson? Well, Al Jefferson's peak is also a 23+11 player, a selection of the league's best third team. At this level, I really think Oka
Can Fu do it? Unless this guy completely transforms, otherwise, there is probably only hope in dreams. The funny thing is that when Okafor knew his draft template, he was still very reluctant, thinking that it was the scouts.
"insulted" his potential.
Scouts sometimes make mistakes, but not with him.
Slowly, Tang Qian lost patience with this rookie, because he found that this guy seemed to only be able to attack in the low post and couldn't hit the basket from a little further away. What's there to wait for? Forget it, just go ahead and hit the basket.
Use your strength to destroy it.
At least tonight, he felt that No. 8 could no longer play any tricks.
Okafor does have good footwork in the low post, but he can only move in the low post and the penalty area. He relies too much on his low post offensive ability, and is obviously lazy on the defensive end in order to have more physical ability on the offensive end.
The gorgeous steps came out. This style of play and attitude are not to Tang Qian's taste. To put it simply, Okafor's statistics in 14 games at the University show that he made more than 300 low-post shots, of which there were as many as 200 low-post shots. This
It means that more than 75% of his offensive performance is in the low post, and 52% is in the low post. But there is something that may be blinded by his gorgeous low post steps, and that is his post-up shooting percentage. In total, it was only 41% in college. Comparatively
His other low post offensive skills, low post post-up efficiency are very poor. But Okafor is obsessed with it and can't extricate himself.
The head coach of the Blue Devils has mentioned this problem to him many times, but others don't care at all, thinking that this is his characteristic and specialty.
In the future, you can rely on this to make a career in the NBA.
Haha, so naive.
So when Okafor asked for the ball again and was about to hit Tang Qian in the low post, Tang Qian no longer allowed the rookie to catch the ball comfortably. After a physical confrontation, Tang Qian attacked and intercepted Okafor's catch.
They were completely squeezed to the back.
Tang Qian had just talked to him about this issue, but he didn't listen at all. In this case, it's no wonder Tang Qian.
It turned out like this later. Okafor had to intercept the ball, made a mistake in catching the ball, and in the end he was even out of position. The Lakers No. 29 squeezed him from behind and "precariously" made him unable to stand firmly at all.
However, after he failed to get the ball several times, he couldn't help but said to Tang Qian: "Can you stop being so shameless! Get me a ball! Are you scared???"
When Tang Qian heard this, he gave up the squeeze as expected. He allowed Okafor to catch the ball in the low post and said, "Then I'll give you one last chance. If you can't score, don't blame me for letting you score zero in front of me tonight." "Seal zero."
? This word irritated Okafor. No one has ever underestimated his low-post offensive firepower so much. His ball was also stimulated to improve his state a little, and he began to use his instant perception ability to break the game. This is
It is a very profound technical move that traditional old-school inside players will learn. Once practiced, you can sense the opponent's defensive center of gravity during the back-up play, so that you can easily defeat it.
But let’s just say that, this is the NBA, not the NCAA, so the effect of Okafor’s low post moves in the NCAA has been greatly weakened. Especially what he is encountering now is Tang Qian. A low post defense can be called "
"Hell Devil" guy. It is even more difficult. The effect is weak.
The road to Shu is as difficult as going to the blue sky.
Okafor made a misjudgment when turning around. He was pushed hard by Tang Qian during the entire turn. He was supposed to turn inside and cut closer to the basket, but after doing so, he became farther and farther away from the basket.
I almost hit the bottom line.
Okafor took the shot forcefully, wanting to gamble his luck, so let's take the first one now.
Well, Tang Qian was so ruthless. He slapped the ball down in front of his face, and then he stopped joining the attack. He just looked at Okafor in front of him and said, "Are you really using up your moves? Well, I'm patient."
No more, so the offensive and defensive duel ends here."
Ended? What do you mean? This is only the first quarter, isn't it? Okafor was stunned.
But Tang Qian immediately gave him the answer:
Now enter crushing mode.
You've made me lose interest tonight, novice.
