Born in the West, it is so miserable. The Rockets faced off against the Lakers again. This time Harden also tried his best to regain the field in his home court! He lost last time, and he was quite unlucky.
Convinced. I must win this time!
You say I can't score high scores? If you have the ability, don't help defend me from double-teaming!!!
Hey, don't tell me, the Lakers really did this. Tang Qian seemed to feel the Rockets' No. 13 fighting spirit, so he decided to help him. After all, in the regular season, it doesn't matter if you have a little fun. As long as you don't get carried away.
Just fine.
"Don't go over to help defend him. The Rockets started very accurately tonight from the outside. Let him do it on his own." After Tang Qian said that, Harden immediately became confused. As soon as the ball went in, a foul was made, and then he went to the free throw line for 2
2 free throws.
"Tyrant~ If you have the ability, keep doing this!" This is Harden's trash talk, because if he keeps doing this, he can score high points! At least now he is the first scorer in the league! And with the huge improvement this year,
Let his self-confidence explode! Tang Qian doesn't care. In his opinion, the Rockets actually have a big problem, especially their four giants, which are now unable to be integrated. Not to mention that one plus one is greater than two, even one plus
One equals two can no longer be achieved now. Anthony's style of play has now been completely exposed, and it is not suitable for this Rockets team at all. So if he is here and plays at a fast pace with the Rockets, he will soon fall into an offensive and defensive lag.
the point.
And now he is not willing to play as a substitute, which makes everyone feel very unhappy.
Because now it is generally believed that Anthony is no longer good. If he is a past star, he will have to accept the situation of being a substitute. What is the point of holding on? If you hit the iron, then the egg will be useless. The defense will not help.
What's the use of you? Anthony himself is a little embarrassed now, but he still wants to prove himself, so his moves are slightly filled with anger and gambling. He is gambling on his own feel, hoping to take advantage of which game he feels good to explode.
One wave, prove yourself. Therefore, the so-called Big Four Rockets now have no chemical reaction at all. With two black holes for ball rights, how can they play a tandem organization? Paul feels that he has no sense of existence. Why?
Let's talk. He came here to sort out and organize the whole team. But now...he can't touch the ball most of the time, so how can he play? He is not good at doing a lot of singles shots.
This is tantamount to making him abandon his martial arts skills.
Harden used to be able to combine offense and passing, but now that he has made a huge breakthrough in scoring ability, he has begun to become more and more addicted to individual singles and cannot extricate himself. Even Kobe Bryant said a lot of good things about his beverage spokesperson, and he also supported it.
Pass him. However, he still clearly expressed his disapproval of his style of play. Because he used to have too many shots and was unable to win the championship in a large number of singles. Now Harden is singles and all-inclusive.
If you play like this, it will be even more impossible to win the championship. So when Kobe was interviewed, he once again emphasized that Harden would be difficult to win if he played like this. However, it is obvious that Harden obviously has no intention of listening to the advice of the famous Lakers player. He even
I also think that this may be because Kobe is jealous that he has broken his scoring record of 35+ points per game and even surpassed Michael Jordan.
Especially this season, he has just started to buy into this situation, so he is even more deaf and blind to the voices of the outside world.
If Anthony and Harden are doing this, how many times can Paul touch the ball? How much more can he use his No. 1 position? You can't let him play as a substitute! He can play occasionally, but if he keeps doing it, he can
Do you want to save face?
Anyway, the Rockets have a lot of problems now, including a lot of internal conflicts. Fortunately, Harden's mind was still clear in the first quarter, and his three-pointers from the outside were relatively strong. As long as the Lakers double-team and help defend, the ball they get is basically
They were all beaten in, so they were in a leading position in the first quarter. However, this situation quickly reversed. Because a certain bearded man got into trouble with the Los Angeles Lakers' No. 29 again.
, on this line, then he only has eyes for him.
There is no one else.
Harden is starting to lose his perimeter. He now has truly unlimited firepower and is the so-called first in true shooting percentage in history. Jordan would tremble in front of him, okay? So tonight Harden is full of confidence and wants to
Fight to the death with No. 29 of the Lakers! Find a place for yourself! You have to prove that although you are also James, your surname is Harden and James. That is someone else in the league! Not you!
What does it mean that I have never lost against James since I led the team! Don’t include me in it! I am innocent! This statement has nothing to do with me from the beginning!!!
Harden is indeed full of firepower this season. Although he has fallen down to average 39 points per game, ridicule is still teasing. Neither the Lakers nor Tang Qian will do such a thing to despise him. After all, this is a real average of 39 points per game.
Even if he can fall off, that's terrible. No joke. Don't care how he got it. But now he is a super scorer at the top. Well, at least in the regular season, right. So now look
When the Rockets opened up, Harden had to go it alone, and defensive Paul George was also a little nervous. There was no way he wouldn't be nervous. This guy now has incredible skills. He can hit 2-pointers, and now he can also hit 3-pointers.
OK! Therefore, it doesn’t matter if the defender’s spirit is not tense.
Once you are a little bit relaxed and careless, then it is 100% certain that the Rockets No. 13 will take advantage of him, and then, in a wave of hits, you will see his heroic posture on the free throw line every minute. This, now
No team or player dares to deny it anymore. Do you think the porcelain king, no, the porcelain god, is called the porcelain god for nothing?
In this regard, Harden has become a recognized presence in the league. So even if he is facing the defensive master George, he is still worried and doesn't know what to do next. He can only try to show off his tricks. This level of scoring
Hand, it’s really not something that one person can defend alone. George knows this well. Even if he is a DPOY outside single defense level like Leonard, it is probably difficult for him to do it alone now. He averages 39 points per game. Hey, look.
This data is quite shocking.
Therefore, George has been adjusting his pace and center of gravity, stepping up and down from time to time, and switching to parallel steps from time to time. This is an advanced test for an outside defender. Originally, Butler should have faced Harden, but you also
You know, Butler is basically just giving away food to Harden. He can hardly defend against it. Not to mention his short hand, the defensive mode is also restrained by the opponent's offensive mode. Therefore, there was no condition before, but now that it is available, George is immediately replaced. George is there.
His defense is more skill-based, and the most important thing is that he is good at reaching high in place, and his interference with retreating steps is much better than Butler's.
Now that he has played more than a dozen games in the new season, Harden's step-back three-pointer has become a very frequently used technical move. Although he used it in the past, the frequency is completely different compared to now.
.In addition, he is a rhythm master. His movements may not be fast, but his rhythm is excellent. If you calculate it this way, you are really not sure whether he will shoot or break through. Of course, the most important thing is that you dare not touch him, otherwise it will be
A free throw line warning!
Harden is also very proud that after his mastery of touching porcelain, he has become so fearsome that defenders don't dare to get too close to him. Even if they know that he is going to shoot a three-pointer, they don't dare. This gives him space to shoot.
It has been greatly strengthened. How can I describe this feeling? It can only be said that... it feels so good!!!! So good! So good!!!!
He feels that he alone can create the most invincible singles space in history. Can Kobe do this? No! Even Jordan can't do it. If he stands here, his opponents won't dare to come too far! Tell me.
Why are you so awesome?
Harden didn't pay attention to Paul George's defense at all. After all, he is now close to a real super scorer! What can George do if he defends alone? You guys go together! Why should I be afraid of someone else?
Yes!!!!!!!!!
George actually saw Harden's demeanor, and he was a little annoyed, but he was very calm and knew that the man in front of him must not be impulsive. Otherwise, he would ask the referee to give you a whistle every minute. Therefore, George could only suppress him.
He was angry and prepared to adapt to changes. At this time, James Harden changed direction. George quickly adjusted his pace. At the same time, he also paid attention to the need to keep distance, otherwise others would catch up with him every minute. But this was the reaction Harden wanted,
I only saw him retreating quickly, and then shooting. This didn't seem to be a particularly fast retreat. However, it was because he had the magic ability to touch porcelain, so everyone's defense now subconsciously felt
To converge, and even subconsciously hesitate.
In this way, his shooting opportunities will be comfortable.
The method of hitting porcelain is not so much that it means more free throws, but it is more of a psychological shock to defensive players.
Defending this thing is passive in the first place, and now we have to hesitate even more about three-pointers. Then, it will be too late. All opportunities are gone, and we can only be extremely passive and bite the bullet. In this way, for
For a top super scorer, that is basically the same as having a chance. So when George saw the Rockets suddenly stop and retreat on the 13th, he secretly screamed, and wanted to pounce on him, but just
As I said before, he hesitated for a moment, fearing that he would pounce too hard. This half-second of hesitation slowed down his defense, and the Rockets shot a three-pointer from the top of the arc on No. 13!
George secretly screamed, he thought he should have pounced earlier. But this was an afterthought. If he tried it again, he still wouldn't dare to pounce. The ball went in, and Harden immediately ignited the enthusiasm of Toyota Center. Do it
Making a gesture, Harden slowly ran towards his own backcourt. The Lakers attacked and played Tang Qian's top arc support, and then conducted a hand-to-hand pass screen. Westbrook directly used Covington's pass from the top arc.
There was no ball screen, and he rushed in in one step. Tang Qian gave the ball just right, and then he gave the ball to the former and helped the former block Chris Paul who was chasing behind him. At this time, when you rush for Westbrook, you are a
What is the concept? He immediately stepped up with the ball, and then... like a small steel cannon, he flew directly towards the Houston Rockets basket! There was a bang, and the ball was powerful with one hand.
Swinging it into the opponent's basket.
With this kind of space on the court and this quality of hand-to-hand coverage, Westbrook said it was really easy and enjoyable to play.
If he charges, almost no one will be afraid of him. He is just afraid that he will not be able to charge.
The Rockets didn't play fast. Harden asked for the ball, dribbled it over slowly, and then singled out Paul George again from outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right wing. Harden's action was still the same as before.
George was much more decisive about this ball and pounced directly without much hesitation. This ball should be stable! The problem is...it's still unstable. The Rockets' No. 13 actually showed a sarcastic smile, because
If you dive too deep into this ball, it will only make his... shrimp jump shot take effect immediately.
Oops, this ball was... It was impossible for George to withdraw his power at this time. He was not Superman and could not change his defensive trajectory in the air. James Harden made a jumper, went up to him, and there was a collision.
Then it was so smooth that it landed on the ground and rolled over. Then it looked at the referee and asked for the whistle with an innocent face. Then, the whistle also sounded, and James Hard stepped to the free throw line and made a free throw.
Still 3 free throws!
This made George very speechless, but what else could he do? Being able to exploit loopholes in the rules was also the ability of No. 29, wasn't it? When Tang Qian saw this and saw Harden's free throw, he directly got into trouble with himself.
Their eyes met and he smiled immediately.
Want to challenge me again? Come on. I want to see what extraordinary abilities you, the so-called temporary number one in the season scoring list, and the so-called number one in true shooting percentage in history, can do.
You want to see how much you can swing when you let go.
Could it be that I, Tang, am still afraid of you?
But at this moment, just when Tang Qian had gained the fighting spirit and was about to fight Team Rockets' No. 13, a sudden change occurred. This "change" was so violent and sudden that even Tang Qian had not experienced it.
As expected, I can only look confused. What does it mean? It means... No. 13 of the Houston Rockets suddenly started shooting three-pointers into a magical iron realm.
What does it mean, there is a song that can describe this feeling, that is, hmm, three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work, ah ah ah, eh eh, eh eh eh~ Of course if it is Harden's side, it should be three
It is more appropriate and appropriate that one is destined by fate and the other by hard work.
Tang Qian looked at Team Rockets' No. 13 like this. Suddenly, as if he was myopic, it turned into ding-dang-dang, ding-dang-dang, jingle bells~~~
Looking at those perfect step-back three-pointers one after another, although the defense is still working hard, it is more...
No. 13 of the Rockets can't make the shot himself.
Damn it, I just said that I would have a showdown with him tonight, but the result was, well, it was "destined in three days".
Tang Qian didn't know whether his fighting spirit should be boiling or not.
PS: It’s the same tonight, tens of thousands of words exploded~~~~~~~~Please give me some support~~~~~~~~
Thanks to Bru, the mid-term leader of China, and the Evil Heart Angel for the big reward~~~~~~~Continue on~~~~~
