It’s hard to say for other teams, but now the top three teams in the Western Conference, that is, the Warriors + Spurs + Lakers, have all started their playoff sprint. No one among the three parties will admit defeat easily, which makes the teams that encounter them basically full of problems.
The Kings are like this tonight. Cousins is going crazy. He was completely blocked by No. 29. There is no other way, just hold down one-on-one. He is faster, taller, stronger and stronger than you. There is nothing
With the blessing of the tactical system, he did not do too many assist defense and zone defense tactics. Just the Lakers No. 29 allowed Cousins to work steadily and be an honest man.
Yes, he has reached a peak tonnage of 308 pounds this season, which is basically the same as Tang Qian, but this person's popularity comparison is infuriating. When his large tonnage and strength are compared with Tang Qian, he immediately falls behind, as if he is lighter.
It seems like a big difference. And the opponent not only has to beat you on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end. This season is considered the peak season of Cousins' career, averaging nearly 27 points and 12 rebounds per game.
3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. Damn it, his career steals are higher than his blocks. This is really a weird insider.
The team Cousins least wants to face this season is the Los Angeles Lakers, because playing with this team, he feels that he has no advantage at all and feels uncomfortable all over. For example, offensively, he is clearly a monster center this season.
He has a huge tonnage, but when he played against the Lakers, he couldn't feel any physical advantage. On the contrary, most of the low-post players were in a deflated state, and the shot rate was greatly increased.
Moreover, when he hits from behind, he can't really touch his opponent, you know. This makes Cousins a little embarrassed.
Coupled with a trash talk from classmate Xiao Tang, "Why are you so boring? Look at all the fat on you, you are all puffy." Cousins almost lost his temper, but his angry eyes only gained the opponent's face.
No expression, no deterrence at all. Okay, you are strong, you are awesome, but my strength is not as good as yours. Then I can face the basket.
Well, no. Because his speed has decreased as his weight has increased to the peak of his career this season. In this way, no matter how he moves, he will be easily judged and blocked by No. 29, making it difficult for him to easily cut in. I really don’t know.
How could the opponent move so flexibly while dragging such a big body? He looked a bit inhuman.
If he can't break through, the attack difficulty will naturally increase and his hit rate will drop.
Then let's try a long-range shot? This is also a magical skill that Cousins has learned this season. The Lakers did not let Tang Qian go out to defend at the beginning, and Cousins took the opportunity to throw several in. It seems that Randall's defense is
He was still too young to guard Cousins in the high post. So he was very decisive, and Larry Brown asked Tang Qian to go out and guard him. Anyway, the Kings' rebounding was average, so it was nothing to worry about. Besides, this team is not like other teams.
The team's defense is a mess and its offense is disorganized. If Cousins is blocked, it is basically the same as winning. Even if it is not defended in many cases, it doesn't matter.
Still winning.
In fact, if Randall's defensive skills are not good enough, he can use Covington, who is tall and long-armed. Unfortunately, Tang Qian did not give Covington a chance this time. Because he had to defend his opponent personally. Last time, he and Cousins were a little small.
It's all about grudges and minor frictions. Therefore, he made it clear in this game that he wanted to teach this guy who is known as the most comprehensive center in the league a lesson.
ESPN and Sports Illustrated are also ridiculous. The most complete center? Just because he can shoot three-pointers? Is he the most comprehensive?
Well, then I will break this public illusion and make everything naked**.
Tang Qian defended very well in this game and was very tight. It was a bit difficult for Cousins to escape under his care. His embarrassing situation was highlighted. He couldn't hit from behind, couldn't hit from the basket, and now he can't even shoot from long range.
The opponent is defending beyond the three-point line, what else can we do? The Kings' head coach George Karl is not stubborn and quickly lets the rest of the team take charge of the offense. But this method was relatively effective last year, and this year
, but this is not the case. Even if you can use this kind of inside-out center to transfer Tang Qian out, it will be difficult for you to find any loopholes in the Lakers' offense. Because the Lakers have been playing for so long.
, the lineup adjustment has been completed, even if there is no latent Tang inside, don't think about getting in and scoring points easily. There is not a single good thing about these outside players.
Randall's strength and courage on the inside are there, and he is not afraid of physical confrontation. The effect is certainly not comparable to that of Tang Qian, but in an ordinary team, he can actually make a wave of pressure on the inside. Besides, Tang Qian is out.
Your Cousins didn’t go out? Look at these people in the Kings. Apart from Rudy Gay, what else is worthy of praise? Even if Gay wants to beat Ariza, it is not that easy.
As for Darren Collison, Rondo takes care of it personally. Without the tonnage advantage, if you want to single out Gibbon Rondo, you think too much. In addition, Larry Brown also allows the team's wings to limit opponents.
A half-court pass, and by the way, he helped defend when Gay broke through. The Kings' firepower did not significantly increase because Tang Qian left the basket. If you can't score points, that's your business. On the offensive end, Tang Qian can't.
He will not be soft at all, he will be tough when he wants the ball, and he will fight Cousins in isolation. Cousins is also a guy who wants to save face. Since his tonnage is not bad this season, he will forcefully defend himself. Whoever comes to help him now will not give it.
He has the reputation of Cousins. This fiery guy, his teammates are a little afraid of him.
But just like before, even if we can win with strength, why do I have to use strength to fight you hand-to-hand? Your speed and lateral movement have dropped so much now, can't I just attack with speed? So, here it is
In one scene, Tang Qian repeatedly hit the basket and beat Cousins into a sieve. Cousins suddenly felt that his huge tonnage was actually a burden sometimes.
He cannot maintain peak athletic ability on the basis of maintaining the tonnage of a behemoth center. If he could do it, he would not be in the current league. The original time and space have long made all the insides have no way to survive, and they are running around. Cousin
Cousins was also driven a little crazy by Tang Qian's crazy breakthroughs and cuts, and he couldn't keep up with the frequency of his opponent's hands and feet. Cousins was so angry when he played a ball that he yelled: "Dongfang Hot! How can you?
Can't you give me some manliness? You can't stand up to me with such a big body?"
"Fighting you head-on? Why should I fight you head-on when your legs and feet are so slow? Isn't it good to beat you up easily?"
"You are not a good man! Do you have balls???"
"Haha~ Good question~ I'm just one more than you~ Oops~ I scored again~ Sorry, sorry~"
"Mad~ I'm going to tear him down!!!!!!!!!" Kao Shen was fired up again and was sent off directly. Alas, why bother? Tang Qian looked behind him and said "Wow!"
"Testing God", he shook his head deeply. After "Testing God", there was basically nothing interesting to watch. Tang Qian returned to the basket and beat the Kings with snot from top to bottom.
tears.
Costa Koufus, who came on the bench, is 7 feet tall. He originally wanted to pay close attention to the Lakers' No. 29 breakthrough to the basket. After all, the latter just played like this and drove Cousins a little crazy. George
Karl also specifically explained this problem before he came up and asked him to pay attention. The result, the result... This guy didn't even face the basket to break through. He just wanted the ball in the low post and just sat back. This, agreed
What about the face-to-basket breakthrough??? Why did we agree to be front-on? Why has everything changed???
Me, my legs and feet are not very fast either.
If Tang Qian could hear him, he would definitely tell him, little brother, you are too thin, it would be easier to just sit on you.
Me, I’m too skinny??? How come I’m 260 pounds? How skinny am I? There are several players in the league who are heavier than me??? But compared to you and DeMarcus, he seems a bit skinny.
"It's so pitiful. The newly replaced Kings center is so pitiful. Tang Qian keeps crushing his butt with his butt. I guess he will leave a psychological shadow on his big butt tonight." The commentator on the scene also started to tease Mengzi,
Anyway, from their point of view, this game is about to end early. The only question is how many points the Kings will lose. Win? Even if Cousins can't go on, do you dare to say that they can win? No.
Seeing that the score difference has widened to 20 points, the official timeout is about to come, and the overall situation has been decided. Costa Koufos wants to take the ball and hit one, what if he scores by luck? Right.
You can also feel a little more comfortable inside and have some explanations with the fans. Although to be honest, Costa Koufos himself doesn’t think he has many fans. But after all, we are also NBA players, right, so let’s give it a try and let you see
How about my courage?
Tang Qian was stunned for a moment when he saw that the substitute center of the Kings was trying to hit him with the ball. Then he smiled and said, "If you have the courage, come on, I'm a little interested in you." Damn, you don't care about feelings before.
You don’t have any interest in me, right? Costa Koufos thought to himself: That’s too arrogant!!!
Costa Koufos wanted to make a fake shot and then cut directly in, and then an amazing scene appeared, which was even a bit funny. Costa Koufos, who was obviously going to dribble in and cut in, somehow did it.
The more he dribbled, the farther away he was from the Lakers' inside basket. The moment he and Tang Qian were physically confronting each other, his boat capsized. He began to be pushed away by the stormy waves No. 29.
The more you dribble the ball, the farther it goes outside? I have seen this used by the American team to bully other national teams. Unexpectedly, it also appeared in this game. This is simply saying that the two people are not on the same level. They are too far apart.
Already.
"Friend, use more force. You should use more force." While defending brutally and teasing at the same time, Costa Koufos felt that he was almost fainted. Now he can understand the mood of Cousins just now.
I'm so irritable, I really want to get angry.
But, I can't send out the sound, I can't make the sound Biao Biao Biao Biao.
This guy is so picky.
And as No. 29's defense kept confronting him physically, he had no time to adjust or breathe, and his center of gravity shifted further and further away from the original track. Then... he dribbled the ball out of the three-point line in embarrassment.
.Beep beep~Dribbling out of bounds~Los Angeles Lakers ball.
This is really the darkest day in the history of basketball for Costa Koufus. He was yelled at while dribbling like this, and he feels like a total soft-footed shrimp. Tomorrow, he may not know what the Internet will say about him. This Oriental, so big
What the hell is going on when Tonnage can press and defend so steadily and quickly? Is he, is he a Saiyan???????
An idea suddenly flashed through Costa Koufos's mind. And it seemed to look more and more like it the more he looked at it.
Dragon Ball is a well-known anime in the American Empire. It is very popular, so they often play and quote the story about summoning the dragon with the seven Dragon Balls. Therefore, Costa Koufus suddenly thought of it in a confused way.
No. 29 of the Lakers looked at him and asked: "Hey~ are you a Saiyan?"
"What? Saiyan?" Tang Qian really didn't say this word much, so he thought for a while before he figured it out. He grinned playfully and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "NO~ I'm not Saiyan~ I am..."
"Super.Saiyan."
"Ah, you, you, super, super Saiyan??? You..." Costa Koufos looked at Tang Qian, who had a "serious" face across from him, as if he had seen a devil. He was a little shocked.
Damn, this old beauty is not stupid because of reading comics, but you believe it? If I say that I am Super Saiyan 2, 3, 4, wouldn’t he be frightened to death? Tang Qian is gloomy on the surface, but he is happy in his heart.
I started complaining and I thought it was really funny.
In this game, the Lakers easily beat their opponent by 29 points. Tang Qian didn't play for long, only 20 minutes, so the data couldn't get 20+20, only 18+13+4, but forget it, it's enough. Next
Let's do more every time. These are all secondary. What really made this game attract public attention was the post-game interview of Kings substitute center Costa Koufos. He directly claimed that the Lakers' No. 29 was "Saiya"
"Human" and he is also a "Super Saiyan". The serious expression on his face makes people laugh a little bit.
However, some Americans feel that Tang Qian is not worthy of this title. At least his current performance is already very "Saiya".
The American people who have been deeply poisoned by Dragon Ball should read less comics.
And not long after, Saiyan Fang had the meaning of keeping pace with Tyrant Fang, and was even nicknamed Tang Qian, who unified Europe and the United States. He was competing against the Great Emperor Tang on the other side of the ocean. This was really terrifying.
