Chapter 1921 The top super scorer who can be defended alone?
This is a big situation, and everyone is watching. During the shopping, Harden finally succumbed once. When facing the Milwaukee Bucks, the Bucks taught him how to behave. This is not to say that the Bucks
How good and strong the team's defense is, but Antetokounmpo simply doesn't like Harden. So tonight the Bucks are going to teach this so-called "Invincible" in the league a lesson. You can say that the two people are incompatible with each other, their zodiac signs.
It doesn't matter if they conflict with each other. Anyway, they are at odds. Antetokounmpo and Harden have been angry many times. From the regular season to the All-Star Game, they have never stopped. When the two people fight, it is earth-shattering. In the original time and space, the two of them are
In this era, there is a rare "grievance" among young players. Moreover, the Bucks' defense against Harden has a pioneering nature. At least before them, no one knew how to use Harden's step back.
Magical skill. After all, if you pounce, they will step back and hit the jumper. If you don't pounce, then they can really shoot in. So you are confused all of a sudden, oh, by the way, you still can't.
I dared to get too close, because he was once the King of Porcelain, no, he is now the God of Porcelain. Therefore, it was extremely awkward to defend Mosaic No. 13.
Called Alexander.
But at this time, the Bucks invented a new trick. This was the first of its kind in the league, and many people imitated it later. However, few teams can really defend and learn its essence. How did the Bucks do it?
What? How can you actually put the bearded Deng who is in such a hot state into a dilemma of scoring difficulties? You know, he is almost breaking 38 per game now! In this state, it is said that people block and block kills, and Buddha block kills Buddha.
There's nothing wrong with saying that you can't prevent it. But Harden, who has grown up leading the team, is in very bad shape. Look at when he was at his hottest, playing against the Bucks, he averaged only 28.5 points per game in the season! You have to know, at that time
When Harden was scoring consecutively, he once claimed that he would surpass Jordan's scoring average and become the number one scorer in history. Suddenly he was defended by the Bucks and his average points per game dropped by an unknown amount.
In the future, he will be killed three times and four times by the Bucks, and you will understand why Antetokounmpo thinks Harden is just mediocre.
The playing styles of the two of them are also very different. The conflict of playing styles is just like that of Tang Qian and James. The two are the upstarts of the league. It is normal for them to conflict. In addition, the emotional intelligence of letters is indeed not high. Whatever comes to mind
Having said that, the relationship between the two people cannot even be called "brotherly basketball".
The two people in the original time and space had a falling out, and the entire United States stood up for them, which shows how intense it was.
Antetokounmpo thinks that Harden's style of play is ugly, he is addicted to singles, and he doesn't defend. Although he also shoots a lot of free throws, as long as you have normal eyesight, you can tell that his free throws are all obtained by hitting the basket. As for Harden, I won't say much.
Well, the Porcelain God is not a blockbuster. He can catch three-point free throws. He is indeed a unique figure in history. He can be regarded as the founder of the top god of the "Porcelain Style".
Again, there are a lot of free throws, but you have to see where the free throws come from. The most common saying among Harden fans is, look at the free throws of Jordan, Kobe, Iverson, O'Neal and others.
Less. Yes, but do you think their free throws are all obtained with the same style of play as Harden? The number of free throws does not mean anything, don’t be confused, how to get these free throws is the key. Tang Qian has been in the past few years
They all have more free throws than Harden. Are you going to say, oh, look, Tang Qian also has a lot of free throws. Yes, but are they obtained in the same way?
Not all free throws are accidental, thank you, please remember this, they are two different things, completely different things.
So Harden was targeted by Alphabet and the Bucks in this game. He only scored 26 points in the whole game! It was a sudden decline, and his shooting rate was also very eye-catching. He made 8 of 20 shots and 3 of 10 three-pointers.
, only 7 free throws were made in the whole game! Did Harden himself not want to take free throws in this game? Show mercy to the Bucks? No, of course not, it was Harden who couldn't get a few free throw opportunities in the whole game.
.Oh, there will be times when the Porcelain God misses the free throw? Is it true or false? Of course it is true. The Bucks used an extremely weird defensive method in this game, that is...defending sideways!
To be precise, it is the left side defensive method.
This sounds weird to you, and it looks even weirder. It's like completely blocking your left side, but the right door is wide open, and it's very easy to be broken through. No matter how you look at it, this is... giving away points, isn't it? Do you think
You are playing wild ball. This is James Harden, the top super scorer in history. Well, but look at the effect, after four quarters of the game, you were shocked. It really blinded everyone’s titanium alloy eyes.
.And in this game, the Bucks will defend alone! If you don’t come in from the outside, we will defend alone, resolutely defend alone, and we will definitely not help defend or double-team. Eric Bledsoe will defend alone. You have to
You know, this guy is only 185cm tall and weighs 190 pounds. Not only is he shorter than Harden, he is also a lot smaller. Even if his defense is well received, he will definitely be a loser in single defense because of his physical disadvantage.
It's a crazy rhythm. At least that's what everyone thought before the game, and Harden himself is afraid of the same. Solo defense? Haha, I was a super scorer last season, how about you guard me alone? For super scoring, under normal circumstances,
Single defense is to give you food! Give you a lot of points!
Not to mention Harden's scoring level this season, it seems like the Bucks have lost their minds. Harden is also full of confidence. When he first saw it, what kind of defense am I going to do?
Are you possessed by a dog today? Why don't you guard me? What are you doing on my side? You're stupid. Go in quickly and score by hitting the basket, easy, so. easy. The second goal was also scored in the same way, but
Harden didn't know that these were his two easiest goals in the game. This was a trap deliberately set to make him relax his vigilance. Does he still want to beat Bledsoe tonight? After entering, he
At the beginning, he was interfered by the help of Gibbons such as Antetokounmpo. He wanted to pass the ball. The result was good. You underestimated the defensive flexibility of the Bucks. Suddenly they expanded their defense again, allowing the Mosaic team to play from the outside.
Not going in. There is no other way now, I have to do it myself. Harden wants to use one of his ultimate killer moves this season, a three-point line step back + a shrimp jumper. The result is that...
Damn, you can’t use it??? He’s already standing on the left, how can you retreat and shoot with your left hand???
He wanted to force the shot, but was blocked by the 185cm Eric Bledsoe with a slap!!!
This makes Harden's rhythm somewhat disrupted. As you know, he never plays with physical flow, but with rhythm. If the rhythm is disrupted, his entire state will be greatly affected. And during this period
The Mosaic team is used to relying on Harden to break the game alone, so Harden cannot open this point, and the rhythm of the entire team is also affected. Especially like this, Harden's unpreparedness is exposed, and he doesn't know what to think.
, maybe the Magic Ball mentality has been overly brainwashed. Even though you can take a shot with a breakthrough, you either don’t shoot or don’t engage in it. You have to stick to three-pointers and the basket. Isn’t this a typical Magic Ball mentality of playing Magic Ball?
This ultimate magic ball play has brought Harden a lot of benefits, but it also gave him a lot of habitual shackles tonight.
You said that Harden defeated the Jazz, who had a similar style? Does that mean this method is invalid? No, first of all, the Mosaic team defeated the Jazz. If you look at the data, Harden will know that he was obviously beaten.
The restriction was successful. Since the 17-18 season, the Jazz have been very successful in defending Harden. In the two-year series, Harden only averaged more than 20 points per game, which is far lower than his regular season score.
Interception. The key is that Harden's shooting percentage almost always falls below 40%. The average two rounds is only more than 30%. If this does not count as good defense, what does good defense mean? Unfortunately, they do not have the Bucks.
The defensive mobility and defensive flexibility led to success in defending Harden, but the defense against the rest of the Rockets was loose. At the same time, they still lacked the league's top offensive firepower like the Bucks, so they learned and defended.
Although Harden was eliminated, Houston could not be defeated. But this method is obviously very effective.
Harden's performance in this game was a mess. His entire offensive rhythm was messed up. His mistakes, injuries, and desire to attack were all reduced in the end. Eric Bledsoe kept spewing trash at Harden.
If Harden performs well, he will naturally not take it to heart, but if he performs poorly, then there will be a problem. Harden himself, and his trash talk skills have never been high. NBA men are not the kind of flesh and blood in bars and nightclubs, ha.
If you don't perform well on the board, you will be passively criticized.
Throughout the game, Harden was sleepwalking. He made as many as five or six personal mistakes, and was unable to complete the task of connecting the team. The team pointed at his superstar in singles but the effect was not good. Mosaic defense is not a strong point in the first place.
, they have strong firepower, so naturally Harden was beaten into a bear and his head was covered with bruises. Tang Qian was also a little surprised by this game, because although Harden does not like the style of play, but look at his average per game
The scores are still there, it's scary, okay? You think averaging 37+ points per game is a big deal. So it's strange that the Bucks were able to defend this game and only had 20+ points left. This is not a big score.
It's hard to get points in garbage time. This is a completely normal game process, so it's really a bit sorry for Harden's recent state to say this point.
Tang Qian was a little curious. After watching the video highlights of this game, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Holy shit, this is actually possible???? This is something he has never seen before in his original time and space. He has no choice but to live for such a long time. Otherwise, it is impossible for him to be unimpressed by such weird defensive methods. But this is really,
It's fun to watch it once. The person who can come up with this defensive method is really a... weird, no, a genius.
Harden himself looked confused at the end, and Tang Qian didn't even know what to say. A man who averaged 38 points per game was defeated by one man in single defense??? Before this game
, he would not believe it. Unless Harden himself had a bad touch, but Tang Qian clearly saw this game. It was not that he had a bad touch, but that he was in trouble and was blocked by one-on-one defense!
In fact, the Bucks have done this before, but Harden's step back was not so famous and deadly at that time, so the memory point is not so high. How popular is Harden now? Naturally, the popularity has increased all of a sudden.
When this happens, of course Tang Qian, the main competitor, will be pulled out by reporters to ask for their opinions. Tang Qian can only say:
I hope this is just a dream of Mosaic No. 13, otherwise, it would be too miserable.
When asked if the Lakers would defend him like this, Tang Qian was vague and said decisively:
If it has a miraculous effect, why not? It's not an illegal action. If it works, you can try it.
However, the premise is that the Mosaic team can finally run into themselves.
This is a pun, which directly eliminated Harden and the Mosaic team. It means that you are not a team of the same level as us. You should first stabilize the playoffs. I haven’t seen the Western Conference teams behind.
Are you watching with eager eyes?
Tang Qian scored 52 points against the New Orleans Pelicans in the next game. Former Lakers player Julius Randle complained after the game: It is too difficult to defend a tyrant. I know him.
What level of player is he? I have learned a lot from him. I can only say that I need help. The rest of our team has given me too little help. They don't know what kind of Eastern monster this No. 29 is.
Now Randall is the top player of the Pelicans this season. He is really a bit old-fashioned when he says this. It is a pity that the people on the team are ordinary players. The genius Jahlil Okafor was now long gone.
He has become a waste. He has tonnage and body, but his mentality has collapsed. In this case, he has just got out of his rookie contract and can only get a basic salary. This is really not a shame. As for Christian Wood of 211CM
, because it was only 220 pounds and was too brittle. After being eaten dry and wiped clean by Tang Qian, there was no trace of him. Tang Qian didn't even remember playing against such an opponent tonight.
So tonight, Randall really got into a lot of fights. Randall's style of play was completely impact play, and his three-point shot was inaccurate tonight. He was directly missed by Tang Qian, and he was blocked in the whole game.
8 times, Tang Qian alone contributed 7 times. There is no way, this kind of head-first attack style will really be beaten to a pulp when facing Tang Qian. No wonder Randall sighed like this.
It is indeed difficult.
Harden didn't know if he was continuing his bad luck when he finished the game. He continued to perform sluggishly against the Utah Jazz, a Western Conference playoff team. The Jazz are a typical defensive team this year, and their defensive efficiency ranks first in the league.
Gobert's growth has allowed them to have a complete defensive system and a strong defensive core. Of course, this is not the key, the key is... They actually learned from the Bucks' defense of Harden so quickly.
Although he lost in the end with his style of play, Harden himself only scored a measly 30 points. For many people, no, for 99% of the league, 30 points is not low or even high.
The score is high, but for this season's superstar Harden, it is really a bit low. In addition, he is a player who averages 40+ per month. This score is naturally unqualified. It will also be lowered.
his own average score.
And it was from here that an extremely terrifying historical performance began to unfold unknowingly.
