"Hot~ Sorry~ I didn't expect that there would be reporters following us that day~ Sorry~ It affected your image as a player~" The other end of the phone was Karlie Kloss. After seeing this T.M.Z news, she immediately
He called Tang Qian. "Oh, it's okay. This is what reporters do. They just work hard. Don't take it to heart." Tang Qian was stunned when he saw Karlie Kloss's number.
Then he thought of the tidbit and felt relieved.
"Tang, thank you, you are such a generous oriental man." Karlie Kloss began to flatter her in a subtle way, because if this matter hadn't come up, she really didn't know how to contact Tang Qian.
It's okay now. These gossip reporters have done me a big favor. "Anyway, Miss Klaus, I just hope it doesn't affect your public image~ After all, you are in the modeling industry.
Image issues should be more important than our sports~" After Tang Qian finished speaking, the other end of the phone said: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm following the normal supermodel route. Do I have many fans or am I popular? For me,
It only has a supporting role. If you really want to gain a foothold in this industry, you can only have excellent professional skills. Oh~ By the way~ To express my apology, I will invite you to a concert another day. I know that recently..."
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Klaus, but the Lakers are in a difficult situation now, and I really am not in the mood to do anything else, so next time." Tang Qian declined before the other party finished speaking.
Liandao, it's not that he doesn't give Karlie Klaus face, it's just that right now, he really doesn't want to be distracted.
The Lakers are currently 11th in the Western Conference and are still 3 spots away from eighth in the Western Conference. In the few remaining schedules, they must achieve a super high winning rate. Tang Qian has no intention of doing other things now.
Such a wide heart.
"Oh~okay~yep~The situation of the Lakers is indeed not very good now, I was too reckless~" Karlie Kloss couldn't help but feel a little sad after hearing Tang Qian's answer, because as a Victoria's Secret super model,
Usually other men take the initiative to invite her, even if it is his ex-boyfriend Joshua. Apart from work, there are very few times when she takes the initiative to invite the opposite sex. Unexpectedly, the first time she tried, she received "cold water"
one strike".
He seemed to hear that the other party's tone was not very happy. Tang Qian secretly wondered if his answer was too direct. After all, Karlie Kloss was different from Taylor. The relationship between the two was not that good, so it was so
Answer...and I'm a grown man, so it's nothing if I get some gossip, but I'm a "big girl". Being able to take the initiative to call and greet me is already a sign of humiliation. In fact, if I think about it now, this phone call should be
You should take the initiative to call and say hello.
Thinking of this, Tang Qian added: "It's not your problem. If something like this happened, I should have called you first. You don't need to apologize to me. Let's do this. After finishing this season,
If this concert performance hasn’t ended during the offseason, then it’s not too late for us to go and listen to it. It’s just that I don’t have much musical talent. I guess that no matter how high-end the music is, it sounds like a mobile phone accompaniment. Just don’t mind it.”
"No, I don't mind it, of course I won't~" Seeing her sudden turn of events, Karlie Kloss immediately said excitedly: "Then you go ahead and get busy. I'll call you then~bye~" After that
, the other end of the phone hung up, leaving Tang Qian with a confused look on his face, not knowing why.
This time he got the best box opening of the week. Tang Qian was not as lucky as the first time. He opened an empty box with a "crash" and got nothing. But Tang Qian soon felt relieved. If he could do it every time,
If it is successful, then there is something wrong. Why do we need this probability mechanism?
On March 2, after training, Tang Qian was watching Amar'e Stoudemire's Suns offensive video alone, because he always felt that his off-ball ability could be improved to a higher level.
. So practicing hard and studying hard are essential things.
On March 3, after regular training in the morning, the entire team rested in the afternoon in preparation for the 60th regular season game at Staples Center at 7:30 p.m. Excluding this game, the Lakers’ regular season schedule
There are only 22 games left, and their current record is 30 wins and 29 losses, with a winning rate of 51%, temporarily ranking 11th in the Western Conference.
Their opponent tonight is the Atlanta Hawks, who currently have 33 wins and 24 losses, ranking fifth in the Eastern Conference.
This is also a team with considerable talent and vitality. This is what the Lakers are most afraid of this season.
Run, run, run! Jump, jump, jump! Rush, rush! That kind of high-intensity offensive and defensive transition is enough to make the Lakers, who have an aging lineup, struggling to defend. Athletic ability and vitality are one of the things most lacking in this Lakers team right now.
, so when encountering a team with strong athletic ability and high energy, the Lakers will show their age and be full of flaws.
This season against Denver, they were at a disadvantage across the board, which is an excellent example.
However, the first quarter was difficult, and that had nothing to do with Tang Qian. He didn't play in the first quarter anyway. Howard made 4 of 9 shots and one free throw, scoring 9 points and 11 rebounds. The data seemed good, but he consumed
There were a lot of shooting opportunities, and 1 of 6 free throws was a fatal flaw. 22-26, the Lakers trailed by four points and entered the second quarter.
In the second quarter, Mike D'Antoni arranged for Tang Qian to come on and Howard came off to rest.
"If you bring in an Oriental guy, it seems like the Lakers are destined to be a joke in this game~" The person who mocked was Josh Smith. He is 27 years old this year and is in his peak period as a basketball player. In fact, he was in this game
His various statistics do not live up to his age, 17+8+4+2+1, which is comprehensive. In the first quarter tonight, he had a good touch and continuously attacked the basket and caused 2 of Howard's 3 defensive fouls.
For once, if you dare to give Howard a tough blow, even the "back-injured version" of Howard is not something ordinary people can do.
The former NBA dunk king certainly had his own pride and confidence.
"You think you can handle me?" Tang Qian saw him snarling as soon as he came up, and immediately turned around and counterattacked, because he is not in an ordinary state now, and there is no need to be polite to such a person. "Aha~ you
This Asian guy has a bad temper. I heard that you are very violent. Why didn't I notice it? Asians are not at the same level as black Americans!" Josh Smith has always been a thorn in the league.
He once had an on-field conflict with Yao Ming, so he has never looked down upon Asian players.
"It seems that Yao didn't teach you enough lessons." Tang Qian looked directly at Josh Smith and said, "In that case, I'm going to teach you what civilization and courtesy are." "You teach me? Howard tonight
Even if you can't guard me, who do you think you are? Do you think you are really an All-Star just because you relied on the Chinese to make one more All-Star starting lineup? Let me tell you, you are still a piece of shit! And tonight, I
It will reveal your true colors!"
"Okay~ I'm on the court this quarter, you can't even think about scoring an inside goal~ This is my advice to you, if you want to score, please go outside the paint area and shoot a jumper~" Tang Qian said and walked over calmly
He reached the Lakers' basket and prepared to face the Hawks' attack.
"What? I can't score a single inside goal in this quarter?" Josh Smith was stunned for a moment, and then said with a ridiculous face: "What a big tone, who do you think you are? An Asian center came to the NBA, and you still dare to raise it?
Are you acting like a fool? I will make you regret it right away!"
Of course Tang Qian knew that his opponent was not convinced, but it didn't matter to him, because it was only when the opponent was not convinced that he had the chance to show off.
The power of demigods descending to earth has only begun now, right?
Let me show you the defensive prowess of Marshal Zhang who was at his peak back then tonight.
Since Gasol has not returned yet, the Lakers' inside line, besides Tang Qian, is the aging Antoine Jamison. The latter was not a decent defensive forward when he was young, not to mention that he is now 37 years old.
"Really? Counting on his interior defense is not as reliable as counting on the opponent's inaccurate shooting. He has no touch.
Fortunately, it is substitute time. Apart from Josh Smith, DeShawn Stevenson is still on the court to lead the team. This is the NBA's regular season practice. Unless there are special circumstances, substitutes are usually used.
From the last two to three minutes of the first quarter to the first five or six minutes of the second quarter. If the substitute lineup is in good condition, this playing time can be extended appropriately. Because the NBA regular season schedule is tight and dense, just relying on the five main players will basically
There is no way to "fuck" the whole season. After half a season, the team will probably be full of injuries. How can we talk about the playoffs? And this is also the opportunity that Mike D'Antoni secretly gave him, allowing Tang Qian to have more time.
Facing the substitute lineup, not the main lineup. After all, all fools know that the main lineup is much stronger. Facing the substitutes, you can produce better data and performance.
As for most of the time against the main force, Mike D'Antoni left it to "Warcraft" Howard. Anyway, he has to do this to make the latter happy and the latter to have face. Otherwise, let Howard really play in the substitute lineup during substitute time, then
He will definitely be furious and desperately "impeach" Mike D'Antoni's position as head coach.
Therefore, this arrangement seems reasonable, but in fact, Mike D'Antoni secretly helped Tang Qian.
Tang Qian was grateful for this, although at this moment, he didn't need to do this.
The Lakers' on-court lineup is, PG Nash, SG Steve Blake, SF Yody Meeks, PF Antoine Jamison, C Tang Qian.
It can be seen that this lineup is mainly an offensive lineup led by Nash. Including himself, there are 4 points that can shoot three-pointers, which shows its strong firepower. But the problem is also outstanding. The defense is worse than the starting lineup.
It's worse, worse, and even more worth mentioning. Not to mention the three outsiders, they are basically at or above the passing line in defense, and even worse is not impossible. This outside combination is simply "improvement".
But the Lakers' words on the 29th before going on the court were still fresh in their minds. Just try to suppress the shooting space. As for the breakthrough, it doesn't matter. You just need to delay it a little. If you really don't have the energy, just don't worry about it.
Waiting to pick up the ball for a fast break.
After hearing these words, the three people were stunned for a moment, but the opponent's best data of the week was eye-catching. Regardless of the score, it was simply astonishing. In the three games, he averaged 11.3 blocks and 22 rebounds per game.
Qiu, well, he does have the right to speak like this.
Steve Blake and Jody Meeks both looked at Nash, ready to wait for him to make up his mind.
Now that Kobe, Howard and Gasol are not on the court, Steve Nash has naturally become the only core player.
"Just try what he said, and if it doesn't work, think of another way." Nash gave his choice, because the Chinese's recent performance really impressed him. If he can really do it... then this set
We can do some tricks with the lineup.
Steve Nash quickly thought in his mind that this is the instinct of a point guard. To connect the organization, he must have a plan in mind and prepare plans in advance.
"Okay, now the second quarter begins. The Eagles serve, DeShawn Stevenson dribbles forward, and then hands the ball to Josh Smith at 45 degrees on the right. Josh Smith faces
He made a test move for Jordi, and Jordi was deceived. Josh Smith took advantage of the opportunity to break through. He was very fast and it seemed that he was going to directly attack the inside and attack the penalty area!" With the commentary of Bill McDonald,
Josh Smith easily broke through Meeks' defense, and then used his strong physical fitness to quickly dribble in. Then he jumped on one foot and flew high on the edge of the Lakers' inside line.
If you have played a stand-alone game called "NBA.LIVE", then you must be familiar with a term, that is "high-flying player". And Josh Smith is undoubtedly the leader among "high-flying players".
As the NBA dunk king in 2005, his physical fitness is considered to be at the top level among strikers. However, because his "software" and "system" were not good enough, he did not fully meet his career expectations that year.
But the Lakers' lineup is simply tailor-made for his dunk performance. It has almost no interference or hindrance effect from the outside. Such a physically strong man rushed into the Lakers' inside line. For ordinary centers,
To put it simply, it is nothing short of a disaster.
With the opponent's impact and acceleration, it's difficult for you to defend him.
Even if it is barely blocked, a foul will be called and the opponent will be sent to the free throw line.
Just now, Howard was hit by this kind of impact many times and had no choice but to receive three defensive fouls.
So at this moment, Josh Smith was full of confidence and high spirits, thinking in his heart, even the "Warcraft" can't stop me, who are you? If you dare to come over, I will slam you hard!
Josh Smith's physical jump is 100CM, which is already a monster level in terms of his height. Coupled with a wingspan of 213CM and a reach of 271CM, in terms of physical hardware, he is worthy of being a physically fit man in the NBA.
Representative figure. In addition, he is only 27 years old now and his physical condition is still at the peak of his strength, so he dunks on Tang Qian without even thinking about it.
"Smith grabbed the ball high and flew up. He is truly worthy of being the former dunk king of the league. This height and body stretch are perfect. Can Feng block his thunderous strike?"
Can you? Isn't this nonsense? At his peak, Chamberlain averaged at least 10+ blocks per game. Take the 31-year-old Chamberlain in the 1966-67 MVP season, who averaged 10.7 blocks per game in the regular season. What is the concept of before the age of 30?
10+ is polite and low-key.
So without any hesitation, Tang Qian stood under the Lakers' basket, jumped vertically, and then reached out to seal the basketball in Josh Smith's hand.
