After returning to the field, the Lakers changed their style of play. Once they passed, they opened up the four corners, cleared the inside, and then let Tang Qian hold the ball in the low post and play in singles. Tang Qian played Aldridge in singles, and he had advantages in strength, speed, tonnage, height and wingspan, so it was not
He made a complicated move, just one impact and two big steps, and then he scored the goal with Aldridge in front of him. Aldridge's defense is actually not that bad. He is indeed not an inside man who can combine offense and defense. This is not as good as
Duncan, but defense, especially single defense, has never been a "weakness". Nowadays, space inside is prevalent, and Aldridge, who is 211cm tall and 260 pounds, is considered "powerful".
However, Aldridge also has the same problem as the inside players of this era, that is, he does not have enough strength in the bottom plate. Therefore, his post-up play is always a bit erratic and unstoppable, and there are even cases where Green cannot hit the post-up play. The Spurs shot
After losing a screen and making an air cut, the Lakers attacked again, and Tang Qian once again hit the ball with his back, then stepped in and hit the low post as he approached the basket.
Go ahead.
Now many people may have forgotten what the true power of a center is, because most insiders are space-oriented and even like to play outside. They also call it strong shooting ability. In fact, they are not strong enough and can hit hard.
If you don't go in, you won't be able to practice shooting. If you don't practice shooting, you won't be able to eat. In fact, if this kind of play was used in the NBA of any era 10 years ago, it would have been sprayed all over. It's okay.
Soft egg inside tag.
So when Tang Qian invaded with such a simple force, people suddenly discovered that a center is so destructive and that a center player can still play like this. The older generation of fans said that this is what is called big power.
Center. What are those insiders called nowadays?
So soft!
It was indeed a soft blow. Compared with Tang Qian, Aldridge felt a feeling of being dominated by absolute power and body. Since he started playing in the NBA, these powerful centers have begun to decline. Except for some vague memories, early on
He forgot what a true big center is. Now, the Lakers' No. 29 suddenly reminded him of this feeling.
Duncan of the Spurs caused a defensive foul and made 2 of 2 free throws. The Lakers attacked again, but still gave it to Tang Qian.
This makes it difficult for the Spurs to stand, but if they can't help defend, Aldridge will be beaten.
The person who helps defend is Duncan, but in this way, whenever Lakers No. 29 passes the ball, Duncan is too old and can't save it, so he can only wait for the Lakers' outside shot. Tang Qian is not like Howard, and his passing ability
It's not enough. He is now a top-notch inside player in the league. Ordinary help defense will not have much impact on him.
But this time the Spurs were extremely determined, just to help defend Tang Qian. If they could defend from the outside, they would defend, and if they couldn't, they would give up. Anyway, they mainly double-teamed Tang Qian first. They seemed to have been playing this way tonight.
Therefore, except for the substitute time, when Tang Qian played against Boban, the rest of the game was not very easy. The Spurs are famous for defending the penalty area in the history of the league. If a team has been suppressing the inside of the team in the past twenty years,
In terms of shooting percentage, the Spurs are undoubtedly the dominant team.
O'Neal didn't take advantage of this at all back then. He would be greatly compromised when he met the Spurs in the playoffs. I prayed that Kobe's power from the outside could solve the game. To put it more professionally, it was the inside seal on the weak side of the Holy City.
Blocking is very scary. This is also their magic weapon that has made it difficult for them to attack the basket for so many years. Why can't other teams do it well? In addition to the system configuration being inferior to the Spurs, another point is...
They don't have the No. 21 pick, Tim Duncan.
Duncan's ability in this area is among the best in history. Although Garnett covers a larger area than him, if you only look at the inside defense, neither Garnett is his opponent. Tang Qian passed the ball, although the Spurs knew that the rotation could not catch up.
, but there are still people who beat him from a distance. In terms of this, few teams can match it.
It requires strong tactical literacy and players' execution ability.
Otherwise, they just think it's too far away and forget it, and it doesn't matter whether they are on guard or not.
Butler really didn't make the shot. He practiced too much on his body and holding the ball this offseason, which led to him relaxing on the three-pointer. As a result, his three-pointer shooting rate this season hit a record high in recent years.
A new low, only about 30%. This shooting rate was actually unqualified for him. So the Spurs took advantage of it and let him go.
I'm afraid, that's what I'm afraid of. If the opportunity goes out and the outside shot is not made, what should I do?
Serve cold.
Fortunately, the Lakers' defense was strong enough to prevent the Spurs from making this shot, and the Lakers attacked again.
At this time, ordinary defensive foul actions will not be blown too much, unless there is an order from above, otherwise, this period of time is the time when "players decide the game". The referee will blow the whistle less if he can or not.
That’s why it is said that this period of time is the “best time to display superstar balls”.
Because the defensive scale has changed, if ordinary players want to score, their hit rate will drop significantly, and their tactics will easily make mistakes. The best way is for the star's personal ability to solve the problem. The simplest example is, even if he does not play well in the front,
As long as you bite it, it is possible to defeat your opponent in a wave. Star singles are not as efficient as sports battles and transition battles, but at the end of the day, unless it is a really bad defensive team, how can you still play sports battles?
And a high-speed switching battle? At this time, it was a single fight that was not affected by tactics. It came from behind and became the most powerful killing sword.
Don’t think that it’s just Kobe Bryant of the Lakers and Jordan of the Bulls who do this. They are just the most famous in the triangle offense. Apart from them, Dirk Nowitzki of the Mavericks, Duncan, Olajuwon, O’Neal, Tracy McGrady, and Carter before the serious injury.
Iverson, etc., etc., who are not the last players to play singles? Tang Qian is going to do this at this time. When the opponent on the outside has made it clear that he wants to let go, he can't do it without playing.
It doesn't matter whether the shooting percentage is high or low, it just depends on who can score goals and who can attack difficulties.
Sure enough, the Lakers gave the inside line again, and the Spurs soon began to rotate. Aldridge tried his best to defend, and Tim Duncan began to wait for opportunities to help defend. This routine has been used by the Spurs for twenty years, and it has endured. In fact,
The best way to break through is for a mid-range master to step up and break the opponent's single defense point, so the Spurs have nothing to do. But now that the Lakers don't have such a person, there is no other way but to break through from the inside.
It's really a huge test to hit the opponent's strongest defensive zone.
Larry Brown stood off the court. Although he was expressionless on the surface, you could see that his eyes were always on No. 29 and basically never left him.
Superstar player, now I have one, let me see if you can take on the heavy responsibility.
If we can, our team will achieve a new level of improvement.
Larry Brown lost to Popovich in the tiebreaker of the Finals. His biggest complaint was that he did not have a super giant or a superstar who could forcefully extend his life when the team couldn't start, break the game, and carry out superstar ball attacks. No.
Speaking of other things, at that time, there was a person who could solve the problem by relying on his own singles. Even if it was the Spurs' historical giants Duncan, Parker, and super god Ginobili, so what? Larry Brown still had full confidence to win that game.
year's championship.
It's a pity that such people did not exist in the Pistons back then. This has always been a regret in Larry Brown's heart.
Therefore, the emergence of Tang Qian gave him sustenance, especially the Spurs, which was a very hard touchstone.
Tianchao Sports Channel also said slightly nervously at this moment:
"How will they fight? Or will it be a personal attack? Aldridge is not afraid of Tang Qian, but the Spurs have made it clear that they are not going to engage in one-on-one offense and defense with Tang Qian."
"It's better to pass the ball. The Spurs' interior defense at the basket has been very strong for so many years. If one person does it alone, the effect may not be very good. It might be better if he is an outside star, but Tang Qian is an inside star.
.Sigh. We ran into the Spurs’ strongest defensive zone.”
People on the Internet were equally nervous, especially Lakers fans and Tang Qian fans.
As long as you watch the ball for a little longer now, who doesn't know how the Spurs defend the low post at the basket?
There is nothing wrong with the commentary on China Sports Channel.
Tang Qian wants to fight head-on.
Since the outside touch is not particularly good tonight, Tang Qian has nothing else to think about. Even if your low post basket in San Antonio is like a dragon or a tiger's den, I have to force my way over. Tang Qian is blocked to receive the ball, and Duncan is always ready to assist.
On defense, Tang Qian did not stop the ball and hit with his back. Aldridge wanted to hit the ball hard, but it was of no avail. Tang Qian knocked him apart in two blows, and the latter strode in with the ball. After entering the sideline of the penalty area,
Duncan has already arrived. Duncan's positioning sense is so good. This seems to be a natural talent. His appearance is always just right, neither early nor late.
Duncan's confrontation and chassis are very stable. If it were Tang Qian in the previous seasons, it would be a bit overwhelming. But now, the Lakers pull up No. 29 and dunk, and hit Duncan in front with one hand with one hand. Duncan
He has done so many background shots. In addition to being unlucky, he also never gives up on defense. Duncan did not flinch from the ball and just had a physical collision with Tang Qian in the air.
Duncan is very tough. Tang Qian has known this for a long time, but now I am even tougher.
I don’t believe it anymore, I still can’t kill you!!!
Tang Qian still kept his core stable after the physical confrontation with the ball. He raised one hand high, suddenly exerted force, and hit the center of the San Antonio hoop. Bang~~~ the ball went in, and with Duncan's help in defense, he scored hard.
Because the ball was a dunk, Duncan didn't cover the ball, so he naturally hit it. However, because it was the last minute, the referee didn't call too many penalties.
It's up to the players to solve the problem themselves.
Seeing that Duncan took several steps to stabilize after landing, Aldridge quickly went over and asked: "Are you okay?"
Duncan shook his head, but his chest was still a little numb. He couldn't lie. His defense had just been broken.
The Spurs' Parker ran into the pick-and-roll and wanted to stop shooting, but the Lakers' player who rotated reached out to block the shot, which interfered with his shooting rhythm. Suddenly, Tang Qian of the Lakers got the rebound. Attack again, and it was Tang Qian again.
, Tang Qian's ball was blocked by Duncan, who used his body to bring Tang Qian to a blind spot in the offensive line of sight, and then Aldridge blocked the shot. He failed to block it, but the ball failed to score. Just in front of the Spurs
Just when the fans thought they had regained their face, a purple-gold figure suddenly stood up from the basket, stretched out his long arm, touched the basketball with one hand, and tipped the ball into the net.
Although one goal was missed according to the statistics, Tang Qian still scored successfully in this round and there was no waste.
The Spurs gave Aldridge an offense, and Aldridge turned around and shot, hitting the ball. Bosh failed to defend the ball well.
The Lakers still gave it to Tang Qian. After entering the last five minutes, the tactical system began to revolve around Tang Qian. It's not that Larry Brown can't play other tactical settings. He doesn't have any superstars in the Pistons or Bobcats.
It can be used, but doesn't it mean relying on tactical balls to play key offenses? But now that he has it, he is not a stubborn old man who sticks to the rules and can just play in isolation with the superstar.
It's so simple and can minimize mistakes. At this time, any mistake will be fatal.
Extremely demoralizing.
This time Tang Qian was stuck in the low post and had to hit the ball hard. The Spurs' overall help defense was too strong, and it was easy for him to get up to the basket. The Tang Qian now is not the Tang Qian last season. You are ready to set up traps and so on.
I'll go in and help defend as a whole, right? Okay, then I'll make your plan fail. Tang Qian's back is too powerful, especially when he hits someone who is 50 to 60 pounds lighter than himself, it's even easier. Duncan
The assist defense is not unpleasant, and the assist defense pressure is also very good, but his body is still degraded, and in order to maintain good health, Duncan has carried out a substantial weight loss. Of course, this cannot be seen when facing the inside line in the space, but facing Tang Qian.
Immediately, serious side effects appeared.
Tang Qian scored another goal, which made the Spurs fans a little angry. There was a lot of curses at the home court, but Tang Qian continued to fight as he should. On the defensive end, he interfered with another Spurs attack.
Tuan asked for the ball again.
"Tim ~ LaMarcus ~ guard this ball and make this Eastern center look good!!!"
"This is San Antonio, not Los Angeles~"
"Damn Dongfang Tang, do you think you are O'Neal? LaMarcus, beat him to death!!!"
Fans can speak without going through their brains, and they speak without blocking when they are excited. Tang Qian is used to this atmosphere. He hit the ball as soon as he got it. He stepped on the ball with his right foot, exerted force on his shoulder, and pushed away Aldridge, and then
He turned around and was about to take a shot. Duncan seemed to have expected the ball and rushed over earlier. The ball was positioned very well, which could interfere with the block and prevent Tang Qian from passing the ball. By the way, it also blocked the attacker's view of the court. As
The No. 1 PF player in NBA history is really not good at all. His physical fitness has declined, but his mind and consciousness have not been weakened at all.
If ordinary insiders can learn half of it, they will become hot commodities in this league.
Tang Qian was really in a bad position for this ball. Did he make a mistake? No, since you don't want me to pass the ball, then I won't pass it!
Keep fighting!
Unlike ordinary people's back fights, which require borrowing force and turning around to find a position, the power flow's back fight does not follow this pattern. It is to force the back hit, then turn around and squeeze hard. Others turn around and pass by, but this kind of turn becomes
It became a direct "break of defense". It was too late to make a big turn on the ball, and the space did not allow it, so Tang Qian just made a small turn or a half turn, and forced a turn. Someone will ask, where is Duncan? He is not
Did you come over to help defend? Didn't it compress Tang Qian's offensive line?
Good question, so if Tang Qian wants to really turn the ball around, he must... directly engage in physical confrontation with Duncan.
If you were sitting in the front row during this ball, you would definitely have heard the sound of flesh colliding, and then you would have seen Tang Qian head over Spurs No. 21, raise his elbows, wave slightly to increase space, and take off for a one-handed dunk.
Boom~ Duncan succeeded in forcing a dunk with one hand. Duncan reached out for the ball, but it was too slow. His body adjustment ability after being pushed away is not as good as before, so this ball does not pose any defensive threat at all, it is more like a death struggle.
.
After Tang Qian scored, he looked at Duncan and said: "Tim, I respect you very much, but your era is over."
"I told Dirk and KG about this, and I will tell you today."
"In the future, Tang Qian of the Lakers will be the new inside leader and inside leader."
"No one can stop me!"
After finishing speaking, Tang Qian turned around and went back to defense without complaining to the referee.
This feeling made Duncan really feel the power of the times.
