Yes, yes, if it's not a blocked shot, then maybe...
Kobe was also an old ball player with a sharp eye, so he revealed the secret with one word.
Tang Qian, who had been struggling before, suddenly realized.
How can it be so easy to block A+ or even S-level offensive skills? This is still the year when KG is at the end of his peak. If it were the peak period, Tang Qian would not improve his blocking crystal bricks and defensive crystal bricks.
, it will only be beaten into a dog, every shot is accurate. Because Garnett's shooting percentage is still very good, and in terms of his playing style, his career is infinitely close to 50%, which is already very good. So I think
How difficult is it to block the opponent?
But if you take a step back and think about it, if you only have to play a disruptive role, the difficulty of defense will be greatly improved.
The Lakers' attack failed, and the Green Army advanced again. Since Rondo is missing from the 1st position to organize and connect, the team's main offensive points are now only the old Pierce and the old Garnett. As for Courtney Lee this season
Only contributing 7+ points, Brandon Bass averaged 8+ points per game, and Avery Bradley is far from reaching his peak. He is currently averaging 9+ points per game. In other words, Green
Among the five starters for the Jerseys, only Garnett and Pierce averaged double figures. As for averaging 20+ points per game, none of the Celtics this season have dropped significantly. Even Pierce has declined significantly and cannot get it.
This number is up.
Therefore, since Garnett succeeded in consecutive shots, of course, this ball should be handed over to him.
This is a very simple rule for winning in the NBA.
So from the beginning, Tang Qian was prepared to defend his opponent to death.
After Garnett received the outside pass, he was about to "complain" to Tang Qian as usual, but at this moment, the latter moved quickly, like an octopus, surrounding KG. Garnett was so tight
KG was stunned by his tight defense, and the basketball in his hands was almost knocked down by his opponent. But KG is KG after all, and his core role for so many years was not in vain. He immediately calmed down and pushed back, trying to
This will open up space between himself and Lakers No. 29.
But the opponent's defense is very firm. No matter how hard he pushes from behind, it will be of no avail. The former will always force his way forward.
The defense is very tight, but... you have mistaken the wrong person with this move!
Kevin Garnett let out a sneer in his heart, then turned his heel, trying to get past Tang Qian's close contact. However, this breakthrough option that should have been very effective was hindered. Because Garnett was surprised to find
, this Dongfang No. 29 was able to catch up with him and continue to squeeze the defense. In this way, Garnett was in a dilemma. The left side had been completely blocked by the opponent. This meant that he could only continue to slip to the baseline.
Otherwise, stopping the ball rashly at this angle will only make your situation even more unfavorable.
But if you continue to go to the bottom line, you will play into your opponent's plan and increase your risk of being blocked.
However, Garnett has rich experience in self-control and is bold as a skilled player, so he did not compromise and dribbled the ball deep from the baseline.
At this time, he was completely overwhelmed by Tang Qian and was behind the backboard. If he wanted to get stronger, he only had a negative angle to choose from.
It seemed like a successful defense? KG immediately made a powerful technical move.
He stopped and turned once, twice, and three times. After seeing that he had shaken the defender's center of gravity on the baseline, he took off diagonally, straightened his arms, and used his long wingspan to shoot a backhand layup.
Garnett's wingspan is around 226cm, which is already very powerful. He is at least 10+cm taller than his height, but unfortunately, this did not help Garnett score this goal.
Because another arm suddenly appeared on his shooting path, in order to avoid this arm, Garnett had no choice but to change the way and rhythm of his shooting. The original low-post shot was replaced by a high-post shot.
Tang Qian did not block the ball, but Garnett's high post shot failed to score. The basketball was easily protected by Gasol.
Opposite Gasol is Brandon Bass, who is only 203cm tall. Although his weight is not weaker than Gasol, his ability to grab rebounds immediately is not on the same level as the former, regardless of height.
His wingspan was completely outperformed by the Spaniard. And most importantly, his rebounding awareness was average. He averaged around 4+ rebounds per game for most of his career. This and Pau Gasol's rebounding ability,
The gap is like a chasm.
Therefore, the rebound was firmly collected by the Spaniard.
"Good job, kid, but I won't have such good luck next time~" Garnett said and quickly returned to defense.
Tang Qian didn't care at all about the trash talk he spewed after he failed to score, because it sounded more like a cry of lust and anger. Compared with before, the lethality was not even 1% left. This also explains why
Lee Bird said that only winners talk trash. The reasons and origins are clear at a glance.
You are an emperor and would be offended by a beggar’s trash talk?
Are you a billionaire and get offended by the trash talk of a pauper?
You are an eight-clawed dragon, will you be triggered by the trash talk of ants on the ground?
Totally impossible.
Because your mentality and situation are different, the same sentence will have completely different effects on your ears.
The Lakers gave the ball to Gasol, and Gasol succeeded in a low post inside. The Lakers broke the scoring deadlock.
Gasol is really different from Howard. His low post singles ability is actually far superior to the latter.
When it comes to one street, there are only a few of them.
After all, the Spaniard is also FIBA's strongest inside killer. In the international arena, even if Yao Ming ran into him, he would still be slightly behind. Therefore, "Jiasao"'s low-post scoring ability and offensive ability,
There is no doubt about his determination. At least one-on-one in the low post, his efficiency is countless times higher than that of "Warcraft".
The European big man's touch and work around the basket are things Howard will never learn in his life.
In fact, if you compare the two later in their careers, you will know that after losing his athletic ability, "Warcraft"'s scoring ability dropped off a cliff as soon as he turned 30, and he basically could not even average 15+ points per game. And Gasol
What? At the age of thirty-six, he can still get excellent data of 16+11+2+4, which is something that even Howard can't catch up with. And what is Gasol's average data at the age of thirty? Close to 18+11+2+
3. This is much more tyrannical than Howard at the same time. However, the current league is still "fooled" by the state of "Warcraft" before he turned 30, so everyone subconsciously thinks that since Howard comes
, then of course Gasol should give up his position and let the former attack in the low post and dominate the opponent.
But "Warcraft" gave his supporters a resounding slap in the face with his actual performance! After leaving Orlando and leaving Van Gundy's tactical system, he was instantly knocked back to his original shape. Coupled with a back injury
Due to the influence of the epidemic, he will no longer be able to achieve the strong statistics of 23+14 in his peak period. It is a pity that the Lakers did not know this before, otherwise they would have traded "Anzhu" for "Warcraft", their attitude is difficult to say. At least
Keeping the original lineup, the Lakers have enough tacit understanding, and entering the playoffs will not be a problem, not to mention the addition of passing master Steve Nash. Not to mention the championship, the Western Conference semifinals are still within reach.
But now, his performance is in shambles, and he is struggling despite the ridicule of the "Four Heavenly Kings".
When the Celtics attacked, Paul Pierce shot a three-pointer from the left at a 45-degree angle. The force was too great and the basketball exploded into the Lakers' basket. However, because it bounced too far, it was hit by Boston's
Outside player Courtney Lee happened to pick it up, and the game was recalculated with 24 seconds. For the second time to organize the offense, the Celtics still preferred the inside line, and Brandon Bass's offensive ability was insufficient, so it was definitely impossible to become a positional battle.
Singles selection, in this way, the answer will be obvious.
Kevin Garnett received the pass, and he will continue to face Lakers No. 29 Tang Qian.
"This ball, you can only watch me shoot it on your head~ Go and serve the baseline ball~ Oriental boy~" Garnett turned around and leaned back with a back, but the moment he took the shot, he found that
A figure was approaching him closely. Tang Qian never thought about blocking the ball. He just stretched out his hand to blindfold his eyes to create interference, and then tried to get as close as possible, giving the shooter a sense of tension and oppression. Although there was no
Taking off, but with a slight tiptoe, Tang Qian's reach reached more than 300CM. This may not be able to block Garnett's fadeaway shot, but it can create a little interference and harassment, which is still no problem. Fortunately,
Garnett's shot was indeed missed.
With a "dang" sound, the basketball hit the left edge of the Lakers' basket.
Brandon Bass had already worked hard to grab the offensive rebound, but in the end the Spaniard was the first to take advantage of it. Using his long wingspan and rebounding awareness, he took the lead and protected the defensive rebound. Then he passed the ball.
The ball was passed to Nash, who was responsible for advancing in the half court. Nash saw the opportunity at the top arc and made a one-handed pass. Kobe Bryant made a 17-foot cut and jumped into the net.
Brush~
The Lakers chased another two-pointer.
"How's it going, KG, can I defend well?" After consecutive successful defenses, Tang Qian naturally had the capital to counterattack, so he asked. Garnett's eyes flashed, but he still didn't get angry, but his tone was a little cold.
: "Orientals, the game has just begun. Don't show off in a hurry. If you have the ability, just cover me." He used words to induce his offensive and defensive behavior again. This KG is really quiet. Tang Qian calmed down after hearing this.
He replied: "Sorry KG, I just need to prevent you from scoring goals. As for blocking shots, I will do it when I have the chance. You don't need to remind me."
"Prevent me from scoring goals, do you think you can do it?" Garnett said with a sarcastic tone, as if he didn't take Tang Qian seriously at all. "Of course." Tang Qian blurted out: "I dare not say that at my peak.
I am still sure of you this season."
"Good~ Oriental boy~ Then let me see if you really have such ability~" Garnett said.
"Okay, I will do it, KG, just do it." Tang Qian also felt that his defensive state had improved, and coupled with the successful defense of the first two goals, he unconsciously gained a little more confidence.
.
Garnett really wanted to get the ball in the offensive round, because he was blocked twice in a row by an Eastern center, which shocked his old ball-skinned self-esteem. So for this ball, he decided to continue to play singles, and then gave it to the player behind him.
This Asian boy needs a lesson. You want to guard against me? Do you think you are Yao Ming? Even Yao Ming, he was my defeat back then!
Garnett was thinking this in his mind. He made a gesture to open up the singles, and only after everyone around him spread out, did he start to take action.
If he was only slightly serious before, now, KG has completely entered an attacking state.
Tang Qian didn't dare to neglect, and immediately pressed forward with his whole body, trying his best to put pressure on Garnett and prevent him from easily performing technical moves. Garnett actually only weighed 253 pounds at his peak, and now he is older.
To reduce the pressure on the knees, even this number cannot be reached, so it is not a big problem for Tang Qian to hit his back. However, Kevin Garnett has never been a player who relies on weight and strength to attack.
He kept shaking with his back, then used his left foot as a pivot and stepped out with his right foot. The distance traveled by this step was much further than the normal distance. Judging from the situation, he should be making a fadeaway jump shot.
Tang Qian was immediately prepared, ready to pounce at any time, using his height and wingspan to cause strong interference and trouble to the attacker. But soon, he discovered something was wrong, because Garnett did not immediately
When he turned over, his torso was pressed hard from behind, and after hitting Tang Qian's chest, he was instantly ejected.
This... this is using impact and rebound force to make a large fadeaway jump shot???
No wonder he stepped so far with his right foot just now, just to maintain his turning speed and balance?
this……
Brush~
Garnett made another shot under Tang Qian's defense. Because Garnett's chest was hit hard, the latter couldn't start as quickly as possible and lift his body up. This way, he waited for him to jump.
When he came out, it was already too late. Garnett leaned back and took the shot smoothly. With a "swipe" sound, he shot through the Lakers' net.
"Orientals, this is KG's true ability~ You~ It's still far away~" After Garnett saw the ball go in, he immediately opened his mouth and started spitting. This was to hit his opponent and let the opponent's self-confidence rise just now.
Collapse. At this point, there are few people in the league who can do what Garnett does.
And as he gets older, this is Garnett's last resort. Many of the offensive techniques he was once proud of are incapable of being used in his current body. So this also means that Tang Qian's defense is forced to use it.
KG performed the strongest stunt of the season. If this move is blocked by the opponent again, then Garnett will have no choice but to admit defeat and give up tonight's low-post game.
However, he did not think that the Oriental in front of him could do all this.
Because even if it is the final "killing move", it is so powerful that not just any cat or dog can prevent it.
At this point, Garnett is full of confidence.
Dongfang boy, your defense is indeed very good, but when you encounter me, you are still a little behind.
Maybe next season... maybe in the future... you can do it...
However, this season, it is absolutely impossible for you!
Garnett looked at No. 29 opposite and thought to himself.
PS: This opponent will make Tang Qian grow again and prepare for the future~
After all, there are not many powerful insiders in the NBA now~KG is definitely a big BOSS~
The tooth is inflamed and half of the face is numb~I wanted to rest~but I promised everyone to break out, Xiao Zi will definitely finish it~continue typing~~~
