One of the best basketball players in volleyball, do you know about Down syndrome’s defensive hell? - FOX Sports.
Westbrook went crazy after the game! We were all stunned! What else do you ask? - Bleachers.
My Lake Tyrant is locked in the latest issue of the Week? - Laker Nation.
I love Dongfang Fang! He is the strongest shot blocker in the history of the league! At least the top three! No refutation will be accepted! If you feel wrong, please come and talk to me, Alonzo Mourning! - Mourning's personal Twitter.
I originally thought that Kristaps Porzingis was strong enough for the Timberwolves in the No. 17 crazy cap! But I was wrong. The Lakers’ ability to protect the basket of the Eastern Conference is more than 3 Porzingis? Sorry, I
I'm really not sarcastic about the former. Six blocks in the half is already very strong. It's just that the Lakers' Eastern Giants are better. - Mutombo's personal Twitter.
Come on, Dongfang Fang, your shot-blocking talent is unparalleled. - Hakeem Olajuwon.
Fang is indeed the undisputed number one center in the league, but sooner or later the number one blue collar player will be mine! - "Zhuang Shen" tweeted.
There are even more climaxes in the country. What an enemy! The ultimate secret of blocking shots in the Tang Dynasty!!!
Why is Westbrook so furious! He cursed for it!
This is what happens if you anger the emperor! The two thunder masters are all under the control of their souls!
Anyway, the appearance of a triple-double can be boasted no matter how much. Tang Qian was indeed in outstanding form in this game, but it was also a pure display of personal ability. Who told the Thunder to be so powerful and "feed" his shot-blocking status in this way?
After entering the "shot-blocking super", Tang Qian couldn't control himself.
The day after the victory over the Thunder, the eighth NBA Player of the Week for the 15-16 season was announced. Tang Qian from the Western Conference was undisputedly selected, beating Curry and Leonard of the Spurs to become the Western Conference Player of the Week. This is also
Tang Qian won this honor for the 16th time in his career. In the Eastern Conference, the winner was Reggie Jackson. This week he scored 29.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists. His outstanding performance also allowed the Pistons to win all three games last week.
An important factor in winning. At the same time, this is the second time this season that Reggie Jackson has won the Eastern Conference Player of the Week honor. He also received this personal honor last week.
However, at this point, his personal performance began to decline drastically, and the decline was visible to the naked eye.
Three days later, the Lakers defeated the Nuggets in an away game. The Nuggets are now in a mess. It seems that after losing their old coach George Karl, they don’t know how long it will take to recover. Although the Lakers’ own touch in this game was average.
, but only allowed the opponent to score 64 points in the game and only 25 points in the half. It was shockingly low.
If the overall situation had not been decided later and the two sides started to play at will, they would definitely not have passed 60 points in this game.
I don’t know since when, the Lakers’ defense has become better and better, and they have become more and more tacit, which makes the entire league feel a bit of a crisis. Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the Thunder and Nuggets.
They are all teams that average 100+ points per game. The Thunder can be said to have been fooled by the Lakers' "new tactics", and they have never recovered and lost in a daze. The Nuggets, on the other hand, are completely stunned.
The ground was guarded to death.
There was no chance at all.
The one who scored the most points on the entire team was actually Will Barton on the bench. Except for him who scored 19 points, only a handful of others scored.
The domestic commentator column, Yangyi, wrote that the Zijin Army came online in a tacit understanding, and it was so suffocating to watch them play.
This means that the Lakers' defense has begun to make people feel suffocated through the screen.
This is standard treatment only given to historically strong defensive teams.
There was an episode in the middle, that is, the domestic political commissar Marbury announced that he had obtained the "Chinese Green Card" and successfully obtained permanent residency. Regarding this, some people from the US imperialist side congratulated, but others said sourly:
Oops, then you should pay attention to your lung problems.
You have your own bronze statue? Oh, on the other side of the ocean, then I don’t think we will have a chance to take a look.
CBA Jordan wow~LOL~so awesome~
Is the next step to take it a step further? Just become an Oriental.
For this, of course, we have to interview Chinese players who are currently playing in the NBA. For example, Tang Qian and Alian.
Alian's answer was quite satisfactory, saying that he was happy for Marbury and kept silent about anything else.
Tang Qian was surrounded by too many reporters. When he saw the green eyes of these people, he suddenly said in a funny tone:
BA, no one in our country does not admit this, but everything has a development process. Our professionalization started very late, and everything takes time. But I believe that one day, our country’s professional basketball will develop better and better.
.
This is obviously a more official answer, but some people can still criticize:
Hot, can you talk about BA one day in the future?
Tang Qian said:
Why not? Without a beautiful vision, struggle is helpless.
Well, why do you want to come to the NBA to play?
Because now the NBA is the league with the highest professional level, not because of other factors. If the NBA were in Europe or Oceania, I think I would go there too. There is no difference. All I have to do is to embark on the best career
The stage is the ideal for people in every industry.
Seeing that Tang Qian was "not getting enough", an ESPN reporter wanted to make a big news. He rolled his eyes a few times and suddenly said loudly:
Hot, I wonder why you think the air in the United States is sweeter than yours? Is it because there is no smog?
Tang Qian frowned when he heard this. He didn't want to get involved because of political issues, but this matter obviously meant something. Because someone recently made a "classic statement" at the graduation ceremony of a certain university in the United States.
The air in the United States is sweet. When Tang Qian heard such nonsense for the first time, his only thought was "flattery".
He is not a narrow-minded person, and he is not easily incited by trolls on the Internet. For him, there is no difference between the United States and China. They are both equal, and they are both countries. But this kind of words, from
It would be too much for a Chinese to say it in public. Therefore, he would not evade this question, but directly stared at the ESPN reporter and said:
There are too many people in our country, 140 million. Even if only 0.1% of the people are rat shit, it is not a minority if we look at the specific base. But this does not mean that she can speak on behalf of the entire Chinese people.
You journalists who work in the news will not fail to understand the word "represented". She, just she, does not represent the position of the vast majority of Chinese people. As for myself...
I never think that the air in the United States is sweet. All the air in the world comes from one source. To tell you a little story, when I first came to the United States and got off the plane, I was inexplicably "choked". It's just the opposite of her, isn't it?
?Also, I don’t know if the air in the United States is sweet, but I know that the air in China is sweet, and that’s enough.
Seeing that this person wanted to speak again, Tang Qian interrupted:
This is a basketball court. Don’t ask questions that are not related to basketball. Are you a sports reporter or a reporter for a political newspaper?
After this interview was exposed, Tang Qian also received praise from the domestic high-level diplomatic department, which invisibly improved his international image again.
It can be considered an unexpected gain.
Now in China, apart from being inferior to Yao Ming in terms of qualifications and prestige, in other aspects, he is on par with, or even faintly surpassing.
Of course, Chairman Yao Ming also played a role in fueling this.
Tang Qian is the first candidate for his "domestic star-making plan".
The day after the game against the Nuggets, the Lakers once again faced off against the Thunder, this time at the Staples Center. The Thunder were "fierce" from the beginning of the game. Westbrook, in particular, was playing hard.
He was very ferocious, and it was as if his "anger value" had been activated at the beginning, with non-stop powerful kills, powerful breakthroughs, and powerful singles. The energy was like "revenge"!
This is one of the styles of play that old-school stars like and admire the most, and Westbrook has it just right.
He is not the kind of person who is heartless and does not hold grudges when he is beaten. If he is beaten, he will get it back with his own hands next time.
This feeling seems very exciting.
Well, it’s the fans who are very enthusiastic, but those who defend Westbrook are not very enthusiastic. Although Rondo has good defensive skills, fast movement speed and abnormal wingspan, he also has relatively obvious deficiencies behind defense, that is, his tonnage and
Physical confrontation cannot be said to be top-notch. Of course it is not bad, but it is not at the level of the league. In this case, Westbrook, who is extremely physically strong in defense, seems to be at a disadvantage. Especially when the latter has made it clear that he wants to use his physical advantage to kill.
At that time, when he was still in good condition, Rondo was even more struggling.
Westbrook is that kind of "madman" who plays extremely tough.
Rondo was hit to the point where his ribs were shaking tonight, and Thunder No. 0 showed no intention of stopping.
Fortunately, the overall defense of the Lakers is still good, which did not make Westbrook explode too much. However, in this game, Westbrook missed 4 consecutive three-pointers, which also caused his score to rise a lot.
.At the end of the game, it was almost 30 points. But Westbrook is very difficult to say with three-pointers. Sometimes the accuracy is terrible. Sometimes...it's really good.
A lot of investment was made.
Therefore, if his score is three-pointed, it will easily rise; if it is not three-pointed, it will be depressed.
The shooting rate is not stable enough, which is a big problem for Westbrook. It has been there since entering the league. It has not been completely corrected now. Durant played a little lack of fighting spirit in this game, although he also scored 20 points.
, but his desire to shoot was not strong enough, and he did not stand up at the critical moment. Instead, he chose to watch the show and wait for his teammates to decide the result.
However, Durant's field goal percentage was the highest among the Thunder in this game, exceeding 70%, but his presence in the game was not too high.
When he really needs to score consecutively, he kind of "disappears".
Durant often had this situation, so many of his fans blamed Westbrook. It was Westbrook who robbed him of opportunities and guarded him. Westbrook took advantage of Durant a lot, and Westbrook took advantage of Durant.
He is not a real superstar player. This method is actually a method used by some fans to suppress the teammates of their favorite stars to gain too much attention from the stars.
In fact, Westbrook won the MVP in the original time and space, so these topics are self-defeating.
No matter how you talk about it, MVP is still MVP, and it proves that Westbrook actually has quasi-super strength at his peak. It is not as unbearable as these fans said before. On the contrary, many people began to think that it was Durant who limited Westbrook.
What about personal honors and personal data.
In the original time and space of this game, Durant only took 9 shots. You read that right, only 9 shots in the game. His shooting percentage was close to 80%, and he finally scored 21 points. The number of shots taken was only a fraction of Westbrook's.
Rand has this problem. He often "punches in to work". Once he gets a score of 20+, he has nothing to ask for.
He has the ability and potential of a killer, but sometimes his heart is still a bit uninterested.
Compared with those famous "killers" in history, it's not even interesting.
Especially after Westbrook's touch and physical fitness declined and the Thunder as a whole couldn't start the game again, Durant did not choose to step up and take the initiative to ask for the ball and end the game. He played very efficiently. There is nothing wrong with this, but
There is no intention that the team must win.
At least as far as this game is concerned, he is far less ambitious than his teammate, Russell Westbrook.
Tang Qian still dominated the penalty area and the paint area, and he became the well-deserved king tonight. On the offensive end, he scored 25 points efficiently, and on the rebounding end, he grabbed 26 rebounds. Although the blocking end was not as exaggerated as the data a few days ago.
, but also recorded 8 blocks. In addition, he also had 2 assists and 1 steal. Tonight, he had another near-triple-double, dominating the opponent's inside players on both offense and defense.
After the game, Thunder insider Steven Adams said that Lakers No. 29 is the strongest center he has ever seen since playing in the NBA. No one can match him. He joined the NBA in the 13-14 season. This is what he said.
There are no black spots. Tang Qian's statistics tonight are indeed pitiful. He had 3 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 blocks in the game. If it weren't for the block shots that made him gain some momentum, he wouldn't have been able to stand the rest of it.
In terms of rebounding in each game, he was no different from the last game against the Lakers. Even though he tried his best, he couldn't get past the purple and gold No. 29 monster in front of him.
Ibaka just said dryly: He has always been excellent. After saying that, he went to the locker room to take a shower, obviously unwilling to say anything more.
His statistics in this game were also not good, but as a power forward, he did not receive as much pressure as Steven Adams, so he escaped a little bit. In addition, now that he has perfected his shooting,
Seeing that there were no opportunities inside, he decisively chose to "float and play" from the outside. In this way, he could still get some high-post rebounds and shooting points.
It won't be as embarrassing as standing on the inside.
After defeating the Thunder, the Lakers defeated the Los Angeles Clippers two days later. Since Paul was absent in this game, there was no suspense at all. They were collectively blown away. They scored 29 points in the first half and 75 points in the whole game. Clean.
They lost neatly to the Lakers in the same city. After defeating the Clippers, the Lakers' regular season record reached 24 wins and 6 losses, and they were only one and a half games away from the second-place Spurs in the Western Conference.
The Lakers' ambition and strength gradually became apparent after playing about a third of the season.
The entire league is beginning to feel the power of the Los Angeles Angel City's desire to rise.
Then, the first All-Star voting statistics will also be released.
