"Matt, how does your arm feel? Is dunking like this really good?" Tang Qian knew that Barnes had dislocated his arm last night, so he couldn't help but ask.
"What does that have to do with it? When I was on the streets when I was a kid, I had a lot of dislocated joints, and they usually healed immediately after being reattached." Matt Barnes said without caring.
"Yes, really?" Regarding this point, Tang Qian thought of Sun Yue's "Sun Dasheng". Sun Yue's dislocated shoulder was reset on the spot, and he continued to play without taking a rest. But Kevin Love also dislocated his shoulder, but
You need to rest for several months. Maybe everyone’s body structure and endurance are really different.
I wonder if I can recover immediately after dislocating my joint?
Thinking of this, Tang Qian smiled inexplicably and thought to himself, what's so good about this? It's best not to dislocate it for the rest of his life, so as not to suffer in vain!
"Fuck.k~ That Oriental guy dares to look down on me! Give me the ball and I'm going to kill him!" Willy Green looked at Tang Qian's figure and shouted angrily.
"Okay, Willy, that Oriental is not that simple. You'd better not challenge him head-on." Hinrich is a calm-minded person. He is a traditional point guard, so he usually does not get angry.
Losing reason.
"What's not simple! Luck! Absolutely luck! I don't believe he can block me head-on!" Willy Green said, still immersed in "painful memories".
Seeing the appearance of his teammates, Captain Cork could only say politely: "Willy, you were born in 1981. You are almost 31 this year. Why are you arguing with a young boy? I believe that if it were your peak, you would definitely
There is no discussion about deducting him! But everyone will decline, right? This is a physiological law that even Michael Jordan cannot change, so why do you care?"
After listening to Hinrich's words, Willy Green immediately felt much more comfortable and said, "Humph, that's not true? If it were me when I was young, I would have forced him to go home and call me mom!"
In fact, Willy Green is not stupid. The reason why he was so excited just now was not only angry, but also because he felt that he couldn't get off the stage! But Hinrich was very good at talking, so he no longer "forced himself" and tried to get off the stage.
Already.
The Atlanta Hawks attacked, Vladimir Radmanovic's 2-point jump shot from 13 feet away, the basketball was slightly inaccurate and hit the Los Angeles Lakers' rim.
"rebound!"
Hinrich shouted from the outside.
"Don't worry, this ball belongs to me!" As soon as Hinrich's voice fell, Eric Dampier on the inside said.
In fact, Dampier was pretty good at his peak. Although he was not the "second center in the West" as he said, his rebounding ability has always been acceptable. At his peak, he could even average 12+ rebounds per game.
Data. But it is a pity that he is no longer what he was back then. Last season, his rebounding ability has degraded to 3.5 rebounds per game. This season is even more miserable. So far, he has only averaged 1.7 rebounds per game.
Scored 0.1 points.
Naturally, such ability cannot defeat the current Tang Qian. Tang Qian and Dampier took off together and easily picked off the defensive rebound.
"You brat!" Dampier glared at Tang Qian and said.
Of course, Tang Qian didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of meaningless verbal argument. For him, trash talk was only used on opponents of sufficient weight, and the current Eric Dampier was obviously not qualified for this.
Furthermore, because of Yao Ming's incident, he has never had a good impression of Eric Dampier.
"Damn it, damn Orientals!" When Eric Dampier saw Tang Qian not replying, he remembered an unpleasant experience.
After thinking of that huge figure, Eric Dampier thought to himself:
I can’t handle Yao Ming, so why can’t I handle you?
What's so impressive about a lower-level player from the NBDL?
Eric Dampier secretly made up his mind to teach this "arrogant boy" a lesson later and let him understand what it means to be ginger or to be old!
Andrew Goodlock of the Lakers took a shot, and it was an opportunity. Unfortunately, he failed to grasp it, and the scoring opportunity just slipped away.
"Rebound!" Hinrich shouted again from outside.
"Leave it to me!" Eric Dampier worked hard to get this defensive rebound.
But unfortunately, No. 29 on the opposite side got there first.
"Paul, go on." Tang Qian made a small pass inside, and the Spaniard dunked after receiving the ball. The Lakers scored two more points.
"M.D! I don't believe it!" Eric Dampier said angrily.
"Eric, don't fight him hard. You are not young anymore. Using your weight and experience is the best choice." Captain Cork stood up again and said.
But Dampier didn't listen. He turned his head and said directly: "What? Cork! Do you look down on me?"
After saying that, he ran towards the Lakers' half court and said, "Just wait and see how I destroy that Oriental!"
This...this idiot!
When Kirk Hinrich saw this, he cursed loudly in his heart.
Hinrich dribbled the ball past half-court. This time he did not pass the ball again. Although captain Cork usually does not dribble fancy, his solid change of direction is recognized and unambiguous. After all, he has entered
How could a man on the U.S. national team only dribble past half court? Not some defenders on the Chinese team? Besides, Hinrich’s three-pointers are a killer! His career three-point shooting percentage is as high as 37+%.
!The playoffs are even more terrifying, with the average field goal percentage increasing to over 40%. As of the 11-12 season, Hinrich’s three-point shooting percentage in the playoffs has even exceeded 50% for two years! And those two
The average number of shots per game in the season is very large, and it is not obtained by relying on a small sample. The number of shots taken once is 5.5, and the number of shots taken once is 3.2, which is enough to illustrate the problem. Hinrich's psychological quality is very strong, and he is not afraid of playing key balls at all.
Steve Blake failed to prevent his opponent's change of direction, so Captain Cork got a good shot space.
He took a step back and shot right on the left three-point line.
Brush~
Three-point hit.
This Hinrich is really not simple and not a hot-headed type at all!
Tang Qian had nothing to do with this goal. After all, he was an inside player and was beyond his reach for outside three-pointers.
"Blame me, blame me!" Steve Blake shook his head and took the initiative to take responsibility.
"It's okay, can't we just win it back?" Tang Qian patted Steve Blake on the back and expressed comfort.
At this point, Tang Qian is better than the Spaniard. Although Pau Gasol is excellent, his team leadership ability is really poor. Therefore, when the Grizzlies were the boss, the team entered the playoffs.
There were a lot of times, but unfortunately, three times, they all lost 0-4. Without exception, they were all shaved off by their opponents!
So the Spaniard's first playoff victory came with the Los Angeles Lakers.
And in one breath, he reached the finals!
From that day on, Gasol also understood his attributes as a player. Being the second-best player is considered the best, while being the first-best player...is a mistake.
When the Lakers attacked, Matt Barnes rushed inside and made a lowhand layup. Unfortunately, it was hindered. After the layup hung around the Atlanta basket, it reluctantly fell out.
I must get the defensive rebound this time!
Although Eric Dampier had just spoken against Hinrich, he still chose to adopt the other party's suggestion. Because after just a few fights, he already had a certain understanding of Tang Qian's bounce and speed.
Not to mention now, even when he was young, he might not be able to beat others. So if he wants to grab rebounds, the best way is to rely on his weight and experience to block positions and fight with the opponent's rebounding skills. In the end, he
Eric Dampier has also been in the NBA for ten years, so he still has some confidence.
As the center of the Lakers, Tang Qian has the unshirkable responsibility for this offensive rebound.
However, Eric Dampier also learned to be smart. He used his own weight to not jump first, but to squeeze Tang Qian behind him first. This was a kind of confidence in his positioning skills and strength.
In terms of weight alone, Eric Dampier is indeed much heavier than Tang Qian, and even surpasses Tang Qian in terms of strength. This is no joke, Eric Dampier's bench press weight is,
Very strong, he was among the best in the NBA at his peak, with a bench press figure of 396.8 pounds that was close to 400 pounds. It was simply unreal! No wonder he looked down on Yao Ming back then, because Yao Ming's maximum bench press was only 348.3 pounds, which was the same as Dampier's.
The gap is indeed obvious. Although he is old now, he will never lose to Tang Qian in terms of strength! Unfortunately, Dampier has forgotten that when it comes to rebounding, it is not that the stronger the better, otherwise the inside players will just practice more.
Strength is good, so why bother with so many "messy" things? Strength is indeed a guaranteed factor in inside wrestling, but in addition, there are many factors that influence everything. For example, technology, footwork, and agility
Sex, such as jumping, such as smell, such as explosive power, such as state... there are countless. Otherwise, Garnett only has a bench press of 340 pounds, how could he have been in the NBA for many years?
For this "second center in the Western Conference", Tang Qian has been prepared for a long time. Fighting for pure strength? He is not that stupid!
This, what is this?
Dampier only felt his eyes flash as No. 29 of the Lakers got in front of him, and then jumped easily to grab the offensive rebound.
Damn it, do you think I’m a weakling???
Dampier was immediately furious. He felt that he had been tricked by Tang Qian, so he turned around and rushed towards him.
"You kid, don't even think about getting a layup!" Dampier yelled. With his huge body, he really looked like a "destroyer".
"A layup? Who said I was going to lay up?" Tang Qian glanced at the opponent and whispered softly.
"I want to slam dunk~"
Tang Qian stepped up and dunked successfully. Unfortunately, Dampier's speed was too slow, so Tang Qian dunked in. He had just arrived at Tang Qian's side.
Beep~
Moreover, because he failed to "stop the car", he was charged a defensive foul in vain.
"Hey, weren't you known as the second center in the Western Conference back then? That's all you have?" Tang Qian said with a "little taunt" after landing.
"You bastard, what are you pulling on! You bastard orientalist!!!" Dampier had never been a good-tempered person, so he got angry when Tang Qian got a little bit.
"Haha~ On the basketball court, strength speaks for itself. After all these years, why do you still like to talk so much?" Tang Qian, as the one with the upper hand, naturally didn't get angry. Instead, he thought the other party was funny.
"Talk? I think you're looking for death!" Dampier was furious and wanted to come over to "beat" Tang Qian with a straight face.
But before Tang Qian could take action, Matt Barnes couldn't sit still anymore. He rushed over and pushed Dampier and said: "You idiot, you dare to touch me... you dare to touch me."
Friend???Are you tired of living???"
"Matt Barnes, you, what are you meddling in! Is he your little brother?" Eric Dampier obviously knew what Barnes did, so when he saw him, his momentum immediately dropped and he said
.
"What little brother??? He is my brother, bro!!! Do you understand? If you keep talking nonsense to me, I will make it impossible for you to leave Los Angeles!!!" In fact, Matt Barnes is now
He already had a quarrel with the Southsiders, so what he said was just to scare them.
"You..." Just when Dampier couldn't get off the stage, Hinrich came over and said: "Matt, this is an NBA arena. It's better for everyone to exercise restraint, otherwise it will cause a big fuss and it will not be good for anyone."
Hinrich's words are on point, because according to the rules of the NBA, both Dampier and Matt Barnes have non-guaranteed contracts. In other words, if they are injured or suspended, the team will withhold their salary!
And this is completely reasonable! Dampier and Matt Barnes can't have any complaints! It has to be said that Captain Cork is well-versed in the world. He knows that playing in the NBA, what most players are pursuing is not a good thing.
Most players have only one pursuit, which is to make money, make big money! Therefore, anything linked to the US dollar is their pet peeve, especially for players of the level of Barnes and Dampier.
The mere mention of U.S. dollars instantly wakes them up!
"Humph, Kirk, you just saw it, he acted first, I was just self-defense!" Matt Barnes calmed down after hearing this.
What? You call this self-defense?
Dampier listened and was very angry, but he had no choice. He really didn't have the guts to start a war with Matt Barnes.
In this case, he could only hold his nose and endure it.
"OK, let's continue playing. If anything happens, resolve it on the court. This is the professional quality that professional athletes should have." Hinrich glanced at Dampier and replied on the latter's behalf.
"By the way, I'm Chinese, from the same country as Yao. Do you remember the number 25 over there?" Seeing Dampier walking to the left of the three-second zone, Tang Qian suddenly said.
Chinese???Turns out he is also Chinese???M.D!!!fuc.k!!!I hate Chinese!!!
Eric Dampier shouted loudly in his heart.
At this moment, domestic.
Post bars in major forums are abuzz.
Damn it, beat that bastard to death! Every time a Chinese player lands in the NBA, he will be treated like a rat!
Agreed! This guy has become distasteful in the Tuyao era! Does a guy who averages 0.1 points per game really treat himself like a piece of cake?
Hey, I don’t know if you saw it, but Matt Barnes rushed out to help Tang Qi~
Why didn't you see it? This scene reminds me of Team Rocket's "Boss Fu". He did the same thing when Tuyao was bullied!
When you say it, it’s really true~ This Barnes is good, pleasing to the eye, and he is a man~
It seems that Tang Ji is still very popular in the team. At least he is much better than "Yi Di" back then~ You must know that poor interpersonal relationships in the team means that if you can't get the ball in the game, you will be easily attacked.
The isolation of teammates~ "Yidi" has experienced this pain before~
Well, it makes sense, and I also saw several clips of Tang Ji communicating with his teammates, which shows that Tang Ji's language communication skills are not weak, at least he is not as passive as "Yi Di"~
To play in the United States, language communication skills are a must. Otherwise, it will be difficult to communicate with teammates, and how can you cultivate a tacit understanding? I am also optimistic about Tang Ji. He should be easier to understand than "Yi Di" ~ Today's Barnes
Helping out is a good proof~
Alas, but Tang Ji is still a "ten-day player", and his innate capital is not as strong as that of "Yidi"~
Take your time, don't be in a hurry, as long as you have determined your position in the league, you won't have to worry about not being able to play! "Yidi" couldn't find his position on the team back then, so he was given up by the NBA! Tang Qi has tens of millions of dollars
It’s better not to learn this!
…
As for the truth about why Matt Barnes came forward to help, perhaps the Chinese people will never know.
Bang~
Tang Qian's free throw shooting percentage is as bad as ever. Even if the free throw crystal tiles have been increased to 9, it will have no effect. Because Zhang Dashuai's free throws are so "casual", no matter how Tang Qian practices, they will be useless.
So stiff, so bleak.
The highest season in career is 61.3%, I am convinced!
Tang Qian wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
"Pass, Hinrich, pass me the ball!"
After settling into position, Eric Dampier opened his hand to claim the fairway.
Still not giving up???
You feel like you can’t catch me with rebounds? So you have to find it on offense?
Hehe~ Okay~ "Second Center", I can't wait for it!
This guy is such an idiot!
Hinrich glanced at Dampier. He originally planned to pass the ball to Willie Green, but the former kept beckoning for the ball. He had no choice but to pass the basketball in. Because Eric Dampier
This important position has entered the Lakers' inside line, which is the 3-second zone. If I don't send the ball in immediately, what awaits the Atlanta Hawks will be a three-second offensive violation.
I don't believe I can't cure you!
Dampier pushed Tang Qian with his body, and then forced his way into the Lakers' inside lane.
He thought that this way he could defeat his opponent and leave Tang Qian with nothing to do.
But he underestimated Tang Qian's agility, or in other words, he overestimated his own agility. At the moment when his strength was about to start, Tang Qian saw the opportunity and withdrew his strength. Suddenly, Dampier became unstable.
The steps lost their rhythm.
How could such an unbalanced shot escape Tang Qian's Wuzhishan? With a "pop" sound, he quickly blocked the shot and gave it to the former "second center in the Western Conference."
In the following time, the Lakers entered the point-chasing mode. After the third quarter, the Lakers not only caught up with the score difference, but even surpassed their opponents by 1 point. With strong momentum, the Lakers did not make any more attempts in the fourth quarter.
Giving the opponent a chance, as the Black Mamba's touch recovered, he scored 12 points in a row, easily defeating the Atlanta Hawks.
The final score was fixed at 86-78, and the Los Angeles Lakers won their second consecutive victory.
Although Tang Qian did not have a chance to play in the fourth quarter, with his performance in the second half of the third quarter, he still got 5 rebounds and 5 blocks in one fell swoop. The hope of staying on the team after ten days seemed to be restored.
A little bigger.
At the end of the game, Tang Qian and the Atlanta Hawks players greeted each other. When he bumped into Tracy McGrady again, he couldn't help but asked: "Mr. McGrady, why didn't you do it yourself in the third quarter?"
What about attack? I think your attack ability is far superior to the four of them!"
"Go on your own? Oh, no, no, no, China is hot. My era is over, and after this season, I will choose to retire and leave the NBA stage." McGrady looked at Tang with his unique "sleepy eyes"
Qian, said in a very calm voice.
"Leave the NBA?" Tang Qian suddenly thought of McGrady's future. He said, "But don't you feel regretful that you didn't win the NBA championship ring?"
"Is it a pity?" Maddie's eyes flashed, but soon faded away, and said: "No, it's not a pity, because this dream is too far away from me, and I have never been close to it! Maybe back then
There was an opportunity, but I didn't take it, SO, now, everything should be over."
"Fang, since you are a compatriot of Yao, let me give you a piece of advice."
Maddie raised his head, not sure whether he was looking at the ceiling or something other than the ceiling:
"In the NBA, you can only move forward, not stay, because staying is also retreating."
Tang Qian looked at this once brilliant man and nodded slowly, indicating that he had listened.
