Chapter 1760 Sweeping someone to have a meeting again two in one chapter
Oklahoma City, Chesapeake Energy Arena, will have the final game of Lakers VS Thunder at 7:30 tonight. However, the ticket price for this game is extremely low, and even rare, it is not full. This is actually
It's normal, because the seats that can really be filled are all interesting games. It's impossible for many people to watch this kind of game that has no final suspense. What are you watching? Watching your team being abused? Don't say that.
What about the Thunder? Even the Los Angeles Lakers, who made a comeback in the 2013-14 season, were in a similar situation in this game, and the Staples Center was not able to be filled.
In this game, Tang Qian doesn't intend to engage in any "careless and lose Jingzhou" drama. He just wants to encourage the whole team to destroy the opponent in one breath. This is what he wants. He has already seen the power of the Thunder's three giants.
After that, well, it’s just a pseudo-strong team, nothing to be afraid of. The game started. Although Westbrook was still shouting before the game, the Thunder still have a chance. Basketball is round. If you are not eliminated, you have to believe in yourself. But the general trend,
But it completely fell to the Lakers. You can tell from the fact that there were no cheers from the fans at the beginning that the game, including the fans, was not in good condition. Many people were even playing with their mobile phones and eating melon seeds, eh, okay,
Eating melon seeds is just a figurative term. If it is more serious, it should be eating popcorn and some fast food. Anyway, it means that the fans' minds are not on the game.
I originally thought that Westbrook would be a little more restrained this time. In the last game with 40+ shots, he only scored 40 points. He was severely criticized for a long time. The outside world regarded him as a "turtle-killing meeting". Coupled with the fact that he led the team to lose, the negative comments were simply
It was overwhelming. But tonight Westbrook's fighting spirit and mental state were pretty good, which made Tang Qian feel a little amazed and slightly admired this young master. As it turned out... it turned out that Tang Qian was still impressed too early. Because
Westbrook’s fighting spirit is fine, but his method is...
Fight more alone!!!
This is simply to ignore your teammates and force one against five.
Let me go, think about it, Kobe, who has always been called a one-man press, actually never did this in the playoffs. At least in terms of Westbrook, the Mamba Mentality has surpassed the original version. And the Thunder really need to do a good job
Think about your own problem, because after the entire series, you basically can't see any tactical literacy and team understanding. Plus Westbrook is so good and Anthony is so strong, it won't matter if they lose this series.
It's unfair. I was thinking that head coach Donovan is also a master tactician in the NCAA. How come he has become a tactical lame as soon as he got to the NBA, and can basically do nothing except a superstar in isolation?
Are you telling me after all these years that you haven't adapted to the NBA?
Isn't this ridiculous?
From the beginning, Westbrook was holding the ball and going wild, running rampant and extremely arrogant. But, even if Rondo was embarrassed by him, it didn't matter, because the Lakers just played tricks with them. Who is the Thunder?
The defense was in disarray. The fighting spirit was also hopeless due to the big score. Basically, everyone except Westbrook was in a sluggish state. However, Westbrook's power was really good at the beginning. He rushed in and dunked, roared, and made strong shots.
.But this appearance can no longer scare the Lakers players, because in which of the previous games was this not the case?
Especially in the last game, Westbrook exploded with power, but it was only for that period, and he also consumed 40+ shots from the team. This is really not efficient in this era. Westbrook is actually serious, because the basket is not
Well, he is not smart in playing, so he is actually not very suitable for the basketball of this era. He is more suitable for the basketball style before 2010. Impact, confrontation, hand-to-hand combat, everyone has fierce confrontation due to defense, and his efficiency is not high.
It's acceptable. But in this era, he is very eye-catching. Moreover, he wants to do everything, and he does not have the peerless skill of "no pain, no gain" like his third brother. So he looks like he is,
Especially inefficient.
For such players, there is nothing to be afraid of in this world.
If you shoot more, it will be just that, and it will hurt your own team.
The key is that he couldn't stand up at the critical moment.
Okay, this is interesting. Westbrook is very fierce, explosive, and rushes when he gets the ball. As for the Lakers, Tang Qian asked the whole team to play in a orderly manner, because this is the easiest way to win against the Thunder. Because in this aspect, Bobo always
There is nothing wrong with thieves. As long as the Thunder's No. 1 position is Russell Westbrook, then you can just wait for him to make mistakes. With this mentality, you will find that the game becomes Westbrook VS Lakers.
Team. This is definitely not an exaggeration. You will know when you see it. The description is accurate.
For example, in this ball, Westbrook made a very difficult top shot three-pointer, ignored his teammates in a 2-on-1, and hit the ball. But when the Lakers turned around, Tang Qian supported him in the middle, passing the hand with a straight arm and setting a wall screen himself.
It was a dunk when Yi Jianlian passed by. Westbrook made another one-two punch, rushing in and throwing himself into the air, and then he was about to foul. This guy was really fierce, and he got the foul as he wished, making 2 of 2 free throws from the free throw line.
The Lakers' Don Qian played in the low post and dunked on Adams with one hand. Westbrook hit another zombie jumper. It looked really awesome. He and the Lakers were inextricably tied together. This was completely the drama of a superstar. But the problem is
Yes... Even if you are a superstar, it is difficult to win if you play like this.
It's okay for a while, but the whole game can't be played like this, even if Jordan comes.
Westbrook's physical fitness is indeed excellent. He rushes around, and the visual effect is amazing. However, the Lakers can maintain their intensity at the No. 1 position. After Rondo defended for a while, Beverley came up, and Beverley came up after a while.
Let's continue with Rondo. These are all defensive elites at the 1st position, and Beverley is a little god at the 1st position. How long can Westbrook explode tonight?
It's enough to say that a team that is said to be built by the Big Three reached the playoffs, but it turned out to be Russell Westbrook alone. From this point of view, it is not as good as the previous Thunder team.
Well. In the past, the Thunder team still had two people who could take turns. But the current Thunder team is not as good as before. The Big Three are just decorations.
Sure enough, not long after, Westbrook started to play iron. Although he still played with passion, it was of no use. Look at the current Thunder team, except for himself, who else plays with passion? He is so passionate
In every game, it was like the passing button was completely removed. He was attacking all by himself, with no teammates in his eyes, only the basket. His teammates couldn’t even catch the ball for half a day, so how could they be motivated? Originally, they were 3-0 behind.
It's impossible to have much morale left, okay? This time I had a good mood, but it was directly reduced to zero by Westbrook's personal operation.
As for the Lakers, there is nothing surprising, because this is all expected. As far as this series is concerned, it would be abnormal for Westbrook to not play iron, so now the Lakers can just play steadily. Tang Qian plays the ball for the outside
, the Lakers' outside line was in full bloom tonight, everyone was performing to score points, and the overall atmosphere was incredible. As for when the rest of the outside line couldn't open up, Tang Qian was unambiguous and took over immediately to attack. The Thunder team today
Late in the game, the morale of the team was already weakened, so the defensive intensity was not high at all, so Tang Qian was extremely efficient in fighting. Adams was exhausted from dealing with it by himself, and soon received 4 fouls.
Adams actually still wants others to come and help, especially George. After all, the Thunder team at this time has George with the best defensive ability and height. However, George tonight is like sleepwalking, even if you are more careful, you can
It can be seen that Paul George's thoughts may not be in Oklahoma anymore. He has been wandering in the free market for nine days.
With such a mentality, how do you want him to help desperately? Just dream, if you hurt yourself for such a game, wouldn't it be worth the loss? So, no way. George was like a magnet under his feet tonight.
Basically, he just stood there, not moving much, not playing much. His shooting was also very casual. In addition, the touch was not very good tonight, and the sound of the iron was also bang bang~.
However, among the three giants, the melon giant is the worst. George can still make iron bang bang bang. As for him, he made a few more fine irons and found his touch, so he was replaced by Billy Donovan.
He went down, and then didn't let him come up again in the whole game. It seems that the head coach is determined to break up with you, and you really can't get much. At least they have the power to put you on and off the field.
The head coach can definitely make it happen.
Anthony was also extremely dissatisfied with this. When he went down, the camera even captured him kicking a chair over with all his strength, and then he didn't help him up. He just sat there with a look of disdain and displeasure on his face. I thought to myself
If this were in New York, my brother Gua would have asked you... What a pity, let me say it again, brother Gua, this is not New York, this is not New York anymore.
Your method doesn't work everywhere.
In fact, if Anthony is willing to come on the bench and Westbrook is not so obsessed with statistics, even if this team loses one Robertson, it will not be that big of a damage. It is still capable of fighting, but the problem is,
Neither side is cooperating. Among the giants, only one Paul George can barely obey the tactical command. How can we fight this? How can we compete with the giants? The problem is that you are not the Big Three of Miami back then. You are all 26 or 7 years old. Okay.
Well, if you count tonight, even Paul George is not so obedient. Whatever I want him to do, George is just going through the motions on the court and has no desire to actively run.
This made the Thunder head coach completely feel that it was getting dark in Oklahoma.
This season, there is nothing to play for.
Seeing that the score difference was getting bigger and bigger, Westbrook didn't even think about linking up the whole team to start a counterattack. He just pressed harder and took more responsibility. Now tonight, the number of assists for the Thunder team will not exceed ten.
I don’t know if I will hit double figures. Are you surprised? It’s really not intentional. The key is this kind of game. In the first round series of the original time and space, the Oklahomans did this. Therefore, this time and space also
It's just another performance.
Isn't it funny that a team with consecutive triple-doubles can hardly reach double figures in assists in a single game in the playoffs?
Logically speaking, he alone can contribute such a number of assists.
Here he comes again, this time because of a very good defensive counterattack by the Lakers, he failed to score. Well, the main responsibility lies with Kuzma, a rookie. He actually didn’t choose to dunk this ball??? but an ordinary one.
A layup? No, what do you think? To be safe, this ball should be a dunk. You are not short, you are so tall, it is not difficult to dunk it. And you just lasted for more than 20 minutes tonight.
, do you want to shout that you are too tired?
But when he saw the frustrated and scared look on the little rookie's face, Tang Qian sighed again, forget it, everyone has a rookie. When he first joined the league, he was severely beaten by veteran KG Garnett.
He's had his ass kicked. As long as he doesn't get hit, his defensive attitude is fine. As soon as he debuted, he played under Larry Brown, and his defensive attitude and habits are indeed better than those of the original time and space. Plus he
He originally had a good defensive attitude, so forget it about Tang Qian. The key is that the ball was rebounded by Westbrook. Seeing the opportunity, Westbrook directly pushed wildly and turned into a blue lightning. The others were really good at this.
Can't catch up with him.
How many seconds does it take for a Westbrook blitz to complete an offense, 4 seconds.
Nearly half less than D'Antoni's 7 seconds or less. This is Westbrook's ability to push quickly. The Lakers thought that the ball must have been scored, so they were a little careless. The ball was taken first by Westbrook.
I couldn't catch up. It was already too late to turn around and catch up again. So this ball became a one-on-one offensive and defensive duel between Westbrook and Tang Qian who never came behind.
Will Westbrook still choose to shoot a three-pointer directly from the outside? In this case, Tang Qian does not need to go out, just bet that he misses the three-pointer. After all, it is not a stalemate now, it is a big score for the Lakers.
Leading. He doesn't need to be so anxious to defend three-pointers from the outside. Although Westbrook's three-pointers in this series are still very good, much higher than in the regular season. But Westbrook is Westbrook, just
Just when everyone thought what he would do, he decided to use an unexpected method.
For this ball, Tianchao Sports Channel, Yang Yi said that Westbrook will definitely choose a 3-pointer. His analysis is clear and logical. What data proves that this season, 80% of the ball will be shot directly from the outside, and will not go in and have a head-on collision with Tang Qian.
Why did Westbrook shoot like this before? This is a correct method, and so on. Then just when he had the wisdom and felt that Westbrook would attack as he said, Westbrook strode directly into the Lakers team.
's three-point line.
Could it be CIC?
Then Westbrook reached the free throw line, and Yang Yang was completely speechless. He could only say dryly:
Westbrook was so irrational in this shot, so irrational.
Fortunately, Tang Qian helped him regain his face with this ball. Seeing that Westbrook really came like this, he was slightly stunned at first, but he quickly realized. After all, this is the new generation of head iron king, Russell
.Westbrook, it may seem strange to do this, but it’s not surprising at all. However, if you come to force me like this, how can you do it if I don’t teach you a lesson?
Otherwise, where would I put the name of the tyrant under the basket???
I also want to save face, big brother.
So both of them took off. Westbrook's ball directly hit the ball with the help of acceleration. After the two people collided, the Lakers' No. 29 was like a giant mountain, not moving at all, and then he gave the Thunder team hard in mid-air.
No. 0 made a big shot from close range. The basketball flew directly out of the three-point line. After Rondo came back to pick it up, he immediately turned to a quick defensive counterattack again. This time Kuzma finally got the idea and made a dunk.
A solid dunk into the Oklahoma basket.
Seeing that Tang Qian was really up to his standards, Yang Yang immediately said with a smile on his face again: Look at it, look at it, let me tell you, playing like this is a mindless way of playing. When Tang Qian was guarding the basket from the front
, can it be easily scored? Westbrook is still too young and tender in this regard.
Are you still young? Are you still young? How old are you? You are already 29 and a half years old, and you will be 30 at the beginning of next season, okay?
I really thought that I was young. I really thought that now is the era of three young men and two young men. I am almost thirty, so I should be more mature.
Otherwise you won’t have the chance to mature, you know?
After this ball, the Thunder were completely stretched to 20 points. The Lakers entered soy sauce retirement mode. Larry Brown replaced Tang Qian in order to protect the main players. Tang Qian basically played the entire game in the first three games. Even if
Knowing that he has proven himself this season, he is a physical superman now, but Larry Brown is still very cautious with this kind of joint. There is no need for any accidents in garbage time. If Tang Qian is injured, then the Lakers will be in trouble in the playoffs.
No need to fight.
It would be the same as if the Bulls lost Michael Jordan in the playoffs.
Tang Qian didn't stop him. The overall situation in this game was indeed decided. There was no point in keeping him any longer, so it didn't matter if he came down. He still wanted to show others that I am still "flesh and blood" and not "Tang Erwan".
It's an illusion of physical fitness. But Westbrook is still fighting, and he still doesn't end up, fully demonstrating what it means to be "unyielding" and "not giving up until the last second."
Well, what should we not give up? Should we not give up victory or should we not give up on brushing up data?
In short, Westbrook hit a new high in this game. He took 46 shots in the game, but only hit 18 goals. The shooting rate was 39.1%. The three-point shooting rate was 7 of 19, 36.8%, and 6 free throws.
He made 3 free throws and finished the game with 46 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 steals and 5 turnovers. A perfect data performance, 5X5 super all-around data, right? The Thunder had 9 assists in the game.
No more than 10, the Lakers had 39 assists in the game, more than 4 times more than their opponents. They scored 129-99 points at the end of the game, beating their opponents with 30 points. Even when Tang Qian came off the court, they still led the way. In this game, the Thunder
The rest of the team had dismal statistics. More than half of the shots were taken by Westbrook alone. The Thunder only took 84 shots in total. How many times can you leave other players? Anthony made 2 of 10 shots.
George was also a ghost in this game. He was sleepwalking throughout the game and made 2 of 16 shots. The shooting percentages of the Big Three were all the same as ghosts. How could they win?
It's normal to lose. It's only when you win that there's something wrong.
For the Lakers, Tang Qian played 28 minutes and scored 23+19+7+7+2, which was perfect, and his shooting percentage was also super high. He was undoubtedly selected as the best player of the game. At the same time,
He also led the team to win tonight and this series. Rondo also got 10+ assists, once again telling the world that compared with Westbrook, he is the real passer.
The great master, Westbrook, is too data-oriented, and his data is greater than his ability. Other than that, everyone else played well. The only thing that is not good is that Pau Gasol sprained his ankle again. He is a bit old after all. 38
With an age-old body and not long after recovering from injury, the brittleness of the body has become a hidden danger. But except for this small episode, the Lakers won the series without any blood and became the first player in the league to enter the second place.
round of teams.
As for Westbrook, he didn’t know why he was so angry. In the end, he had a conflict with the female fans at the scene. It seemed that he was very angry after losing the game. The others also left the home court with their heads lowered and entered.
into the locker room. It seems that Westbrook has no objections again tonight and will be called into a meeting. He really does not let down his meeting representatives every time.
Every time, we proactively provided them with rich and sufficient meeting materials.
It's true that Mr. Xinwei has endless meetings.
Tang Qian averaged 28.5 points, 25.5 rebounds, 9.3 blocks, 6.5 assists and 1.5 steals in the four games. The first round of the series ended. It looked like very dazzling data, but when it was put on him, it became very ordinary.
Of course, he didn't fully exert himself in this series. In one game, the opponent was double-teaming him without the ball. He didn't touch the ball at all in the second half. In one game, he was outplayed and he only played for more than 20 minutes.
.The rest are mostly about activating teammates to play team tactics, because this is the way to play against the Thunder. This is the least costly and easiest to win. Facts have proved that there is nothing wrong with playing this way.
As a team that aims to continue to defend its third consecutive championship this year, the Lakers need to learn how to properly rest and how to properly reduce consumption. You must know that in the past few years, no one in the league has played better than them.
It’s a team that has played a lot. After so many consecutive years of finals and so many consecutive Western Conference finals, and there are not as many stars as the Universe Yong, the consumption is obvious.
Larry Brown knows very well that the key is later, so in the first round, he saves whatever he can. Everyone tries to control the playing time. The West is not the East, and in the following rounds, none of them will be easy.
.If I want to live it, I’m afraid my skin will peel off.
But for the time being, they can enjoy their relatively free time without competition.
PS: It’s a two-in-one chapter, so I didn’t finish it yesterday. It’s still the same today. Apart from this, there should be another round of explosions.
