By now, the entire audience in the Staples Center has stood up, because defeating the Big Three in Miami may be achievable tonight.
The last minute is more than one minute, and this is an absolute star moment. Judging from the American emperor's urination, the script of personal heroism is the script that they love and are devoted to. What's more, on this stadium, gathered
With these three superstars, the potential for a scene is extremely variable, and any one of them has the ability to explode directly and completely take away the game.
Therefore, the nervousness and expectation in my heart became more and more intense.
"Hot, you want more later..." Seeing Tang Qian's position, Pau Gasol opened his mouth and asked.
"Well, I have to try again." Tang Qian nodded, then looked forward.
"Okay, okay." The Spaniard saw the Easterner's inner obsession and did not persuade him any more. He just said, "Then do your best."
Kobe sticks to Wade. This feeling makes Wade very uncomfortable, because in terms of blocks, the former may not be as good as him, but compared with defensive footsteps and defensive toughness, he is not Kobe's opponent. Kobe Bryant's 9th best defense in his career
The first lineup of the lineup is proof. Once entangled with him, even "The Flash" Wade will feel uncomfortable.
LeBron James waited at the top of the arc and saw that Wade really had no chance to catch the ball. He made a gesture with his left hand and asked Haslem to come up and set him up for a pick-and-roll.
Ci Shiping's ability to crack pick-and-rolls is no longer what it used to be, so when faced with the opponent's pick-and-roll, he can only call his teammates to help change defenses. Because James's instant burst ability is so fast, whether he is grabbing or bypassing,
It's too slow to pass through. When he breaks Haslem's pick-and-roll, the day lily will probably be cold.
Helpless, the Lakers had no choice but to switch defenses.
Pau Gasol switched out.
But against James, he has no advantage at all.
Even though Gasol is much taller than James, in a small-to-big situation, the big man's height advantage will be greatly reduced, but his footwork and lateral movement defects will be amplified. Although James is also 203cm tall, his weight
He is even more than ten pounds heavier than Gasol, a 7-footer, but his agility and lateral movement are much better than the Spaniard. In a confrontation, Gasol is almost at an absolute disadvantage.
James has already had a lot of experience on the court after playing this year. He is already familiar with the routines of big players playing small players and small players playing big players. Looking at Pau Gasol coming over, he was not in a hurry at all.
Side, he made a wide lateral dribble, which immediately caused a large gap between Gasol and him.
Then all that's left is to take the easy shot.
James's shooting percentage on jump shots around 15 feet this season is 48.1%, which is the highest in his entire career so far, so he is quite confident when shooting.
Gasol had nothing to do with this ball. Even if he stretched his arms as hard as he could, he couldn't catch it.
James flicked his right hand and the basketball slid out from his fingers. This very smooth feeling told him that this mid-range jumper was a sure shot.
Okay, as long as this shot is made and the Lakers are suppressed by another goal, tonight's game will be...
While he was thinking about it, he was awakened by the exclamations from the audience in the front row.
James looked up and saw a large black shadow taking shape in front of him.
Is that No. 29? Why is he running here? Is he trying to block a shot?
As soon as this idea came up, James himself thought it was a bit funny. Although his mid-range jumper had not reached the highest point, visual inspection showed that the maximum height above the ground was 380CM+. How could he have touched it?
Maybe a center like Howard can do it, but an Easterner shouldn't be able to... What, what???
Under James's almost horrified look, the Lakers took off on the 29th.
The center's take-off is different from that of outside players. Due to his height, he can reach the highest point faster. Therefore, many outside players can reach a height of 380CM+, but they can never beat the shot-blocking data.
The center has an inside position. For example, the former "Bounce King" James White can reach a maximum height of about 392CM~393CM. The average height is 390CM+ without much pressure. This kind of data has greatly exceeded the maximum value of an NBA center inside. However,
If you look at his blocking statistics, they are appalling. From college to the NBA, he has not been able to pass a single season. The same goes for Kwame Alexander, the future "Touch King", whose maximum touch value is a terrifying 4 meters!
It's 5cm higher than the top edge of the backboard! What's the concept? In the impression flow, it's almost as if he was blocking one after another. However, this guy's career was miserable and he was not even qualified to enter the NBA. In the end, he had to go
The Greek league is messing around. Of course, this has something to do with physical confrontation and tactical positioning, but from this point we can see that jumping ability is only part of the shot-blocking technique. If you want to become a shot-blocking master, just being flexible is not enough.
Anticipation ability, bullet speed, quick extensibility of the body, etc. are all necessary to become a shot-blocking master.
Moreover, most of the center's inside blocks come from the basket. In other words, compared with layups, it is more difficult and more difficult to block shots. Almost most of the shot blocks come from before the shot or before the shot is released.
The moment he took the shot, he blocked the shot from high altitude. This scene is very rare throughout the history of the NBA.
Perhaps this phenomenon existed in older times, such as Russell and Chamberlain, but unfortunately, there was a lack of video records at that time, so everyone was skeptical about the various records and legends at that time. But today
Late, a real high-altitude shot is about to be staged.
The maker is none other than Lakers No. 29, Tang Qian.
What kind of height is this?
Not only LeBron James, but even the Lakers players were slightly stunned at this moment.
Blocking a shot from the front? Can he really do that?
380CM……382CM……
No, it’s not even close, it needs to be a little higher...
385CM……386CM……
Still, there is still a little more to go, a little more, a little higher...
Tang Qian was completely focused on this ball. It seemed that in this second, the only thing in his sight was the orange-red basketball.
A little higher...a little higher...
When~
Tang Qian felt something break through his body, and then his fingertips finally touched the spinning basketball.
Blocked LeBron James successfully!!!
Due to being touched by Tang Qian, the basketball in the sky suddenly lost its momentum, trembled, and then fell unwillingly.
Kobe was the first to react. He took the basketball and began to speed up, rushing towards Miami's half court crazily.
Everyone was half a beat slower, and only "The Flash" Wade reluctantly caught up.
"I won't let you succeed, Bryant!" Wade said, wanting to put pressure on the opponent to shoot.
Unexpectedly, Kobe just snorted coldly, then forced himself to lean on Wade's body and continued to break through to Miami's inside line.
"You can't get past me!"
At this time, Kobe showed his top ten strength in history. Although his body was in confrontation with Wade, his steps were not messed up at all. He took a European step, wrapped the basketball around his waist, and handed it from his right hand to his left hand.
Reflex the ball and shoot for a layup.
Brush~
The rebound went into the net obediently, and the whole process was done in one go and smoothly.
104-102, Los Angeles Lakers lead by 2 points!
At this moment in the ESPN live broadcast room, Isiah Thomas couldn't help shouting: "Oh~amazing~~~! Amazing block! Gorgeous offense!"
"This offensive and defensive round can definitely be selected into the top 100 regular season shots of this season, oh, no, it is one of the top ten highlights!" Jeff Van Gundy said.
"Absolutely agree!" Isiah Thomas said: "This offensive and defensive round alone is worth the ticket price!"
"That's right." Jeff Van Gundy nodded and said, "That Eastern kid's shot-blocking level is higher than I thought."
"Okay, gentlemen, let me interrupt." Rachel Knicks said: "Now the Lakers are ahead by 2 points, and there are 46 seconds left. Which side do you think can win the final victory?"
"Lakers." Isiah Thomas replied: "Their desire to win tonight is too strong!"
"I also choose the Los Angeles Lakers." Jeff Van Gundy also gave his answer.
domestic.
"Donkey blocked LeBron! This is really unbelievable!!!"
"How high did Tang Ji's ball jump just now? Can someone come out and analyze it?"
"Tang Qian is a center. We should not analyze his jumping ability, but his maximum height for the ball he just shot!"
"Visually it should be between 386CM and 388CM, which is quite scary!"
"May I ask what is Howard's maximum reach? Is it really only 381CM?"
"It should be more than the peak period. I also watched the ESPN test video. The Warcraft that year has gained weight to 280+ pounds, so it is normal for his jumping ability to be weakened. I remember that the famous NBA commentator Henry Abbott asked A
Mal Stoudemire, how far is he from the top edge of the backboard? The latter's answer is 3 to 4 inches. Henry Abbott refused to give up, and Stoudemire proposed a candidate in his mind.
, LeBron James. Henry Abbott later asked James. James's answer was as follows. Everyone said I could do it, but the fact is that I couldn't. I had tried to do it before, but that place
It's a bit too high. Seeing that Henry Abbott is still unwilling to give up, LeBron James also proposed a candidate in his mind. You can ask Dwight, he should be more likely to do this than me. Listen.
After listening to James' words, Henry Abbott went to find Dwight Howard again. This time the answer satisfied him. Howard's answer was yes. He said that he had done this when he was 17 years old. Henry Abbott
Abbott was excited when he heard it and wanted to let him try it, but Howard did not agree and claimed that he needed the Magic team's permission. Later, Henry Abbott approached the Magic team management. Unfortunately, the Magic team management was afraid.
Howard rejected Henry Abbott on the grounds that he was injured, but they sent some videos of Howard touching heights to Henry Abbott. But in Henry Abbott's own words, although Howard touching heights is scary,
But there is still a gap from the top edge of the backboard. Having said that, everyone knows that once the weight is increased, the jumping ability will be affected, so I think Howard's peak height should be before gaining weight, I dare not say 390CM+
, it should be at least 385CM+. Tang Qian's body type seems to be around 240 pounds at most, and his height is at its peak, which is not unusual. After he gains weight, the maximum height value will drop."
"The analysis above is extremely reasonable! As a center forward, it is necessary to increase your weight and physical confrontation performance. There is no way to sacrifice a little maximum touch value for this!"
"But even so, Tang Qian's athletic ability is still outstanding! He should be more terrifying than Yi Di, right? The best insider athlete in Chinese basketball?"
"In terms of being the number one person with the highest number of hits, I just don't know how confrontational it is? If you are too thin, you will easily be crushed and eaten alive!"
"But no matter what, it is an honor to be able to cover James!"
"You guys, what can you prove by blocking a shot? It's just good luck! Do you really think that if James is serious, he will block a shot? How naive!"
"Zhan Mi is here~Everyone, please retreat~"
"Call Kemi~Call 60e~"
…
Miami called a timeout, and Erik Spoelstra was nervously arranging tactics.
"Haslem comes out to pick and roll later, LeBron controls the ball, Dwayne moves from the right, Sean, you go to the high post to cover and help Dwayne get rid of Kobe Bryant. If Dwayne fails to get rid of
, then you quickly move to the nearby three-point line, ready to catch the ball and shoot at any time. As for LeBron, how does that center make you feel?" Eric asked aloud.
"It's very good. I didn't expect that he could block the shot at that height, but as long as I paid attention, he wouldn't be able to succeed again." James is James after all, as if he was completely unaffected by the ball just now and remained calm.
Self-righteous.
"Okay, let's use this tactic later to increase the success rate and don't take action rashly!" Eric Spoelstra ordered.
"No problem, I don't want to lose this game yet." LeBron James and Dwyane Wade looked at each other and said in unison.
