Chapter 625: The score crystal brick breaks through the 4D explosion and completes~
In the second game, Tang Qian's team still lost. Everyone stepped up their offense, but if they couldn't guard against their opponents, it was of no use.
Play against this season's Suns? Unless you are that "Super Warriors" team, that's pretty much it.
105-119, the Suns won the second game of the series by 14 points.
Tang Qian scored 17 points, 15 rebounds, 2 blocks, 3 assists and 1 steal in the game, but he did not win. This kind of data is of no use at all. No one will complain for you and no one will argue for you. Lose
If you don't, then you lose.
How to solve it? When he was resting the next day, Tang Qian kept thinking in his mind.
Tang Qian originally wanted to find inspiration from the 2005 Western Conference Finals, but after thinking about it, there was not much reference at all. First of all, this team was put together temporarily and did not have the super tacit understanding of the Spurs.
Super chemical reaction. Moreover, the Tang Qian team's bench lacks energy, whether it is offensive energy or defensive energy.
Just look at the first two games between the two sides. The Suns scored 40+ points on the bench. What about Tang Qian's team? The bench combined did not reach 30 points in the two games. This is the gap. What happened to the Spurs that year?
Eliminated the Suns 4-1? Take the first game as an example. Barry and Horry played strongly on the bench. The two of them combined to score 33 points. And 13 of Barry's 21 points came from the fourth
During the stalemate period of the season, this is simply appalling! You have to know how many points Barry averaged in the playoffs before this? This season, he averaged only about 6 points per game! It suddenly increased by 15 points, which the Suns had never achieved before.
What comes to mind! I scored 21 points in 12 shots, with a shooting percentage of over 66%, a three-point shooting percentage of over 62%, and a true shooting percentage of 87.5%! Anyone who sees this will have a headache!
Moreover, they also have a full-time defensive expert like Bowen on the team. He allowed the regular season to score close to 20+ points. Sean Marion, who averaged 22 points per game in the first two rounds of the playoffs, was the only one left in the entire series.
With a score of 7+, the shooting percentage was less than 40%. It was more than half less than that! It would be strange if the Suns were not defeated!
But now there is no such full-time defensive master on the Tang Qian team. Kidd and George were both their first defense players that season. Unfortunately, both of them are distracted by other things and cannot die completely like Bowen.
Stick to one person. Furthermore, if you really want to talk about the defensive ability of sticking to someone, they are not necessarily better than Bowen.
Bowen is a perennial defensive first team member, with eight All-Defensive Teams and five All-Defensive First Teams in his career. There is no such person in Tang Qian's team. If you look at it this way, the substitutes are not good, and the position is not good either.
No chance, the defense can't lock down the opponent's outside line... What the hell is this? How can we win?
How to win? How to win? Do we need to use ability cards? But if we use ability cards now, how will we play later? You know, this is only the third level. Tang Qian averaged 112 points per game in the playoffs.
The sun is super strong and I am a bit helpless.
And he suddenly discovered a big problem, that is, there was no so-called team understanding and chemical reaction on his side. If there hadn't been Kidd forcibly controlling the offensive and defensive rhythm and connecting the team, then they would have become a mess long ago.
This is no joke. They are all players who have never cooperated before. If they are forcibly put together, the power will definitely not be able to achieve the effect of 1+12. Even 1+1=2 may not be possible.
What Tang Qian faced was almost a mess, with no hope of victory.
What should we do? How can we reverse this situation?
Tang Qian held Kidd and others in discussion for a long time, and finally made a risky decision.
Ask Kidd to give up his organization and keep an eye on Steve Nash throughout the game, and that kind of high-intensity guarding.
Just in this way, Tang Qian's team's offense and passing ball will...
In response to this concern, Tang Qian stood up and said: "George, Ray, you can play in singles and have a lower shooting percentage. I will rebound the ball." Paul George and Ray Allen nodded at the same time, because Kidd agreed.
Well, they have nothing to say.
After all, in terms of seniority, Kidd is the most respected, and having his support is crucial in the team.
In fact, this is a "crooked move", which will completely separate the Tang Qian team, which does not have much tacit understanding, and completely turn it into a "singles team." But right now, in order to win, they have to try everything.
The third game started at the Staples Center. Kidd kept his promise. From the first quarter, he focused on the Suns' No. 13, Steve Nash. Peak Nash versus peak Kidd, a game that spanned time and space.
The fierce battle kicked off with a bang. In fact, looking at the age, the difference between the two was only 1 year, but their peak years were completely staggered.
Kidd's best team ended in the 03-04 season, and the best defensive team ended in the 06-07 season. What about Nash? He only started to reach his peak in the 04-05 season and ended after the 09-10 season. So although the two
Both are point guard masters of the 21st century, and both have five career assists titles, but there are not many classic matchups.
At least it's not like this before, the tip of the needle is passing through the awning.
The scene in front of me is even more exciting than the 300-point battle in 2006.
Kidd pressed hard against Nash throughout the game, both at the No. 1 position. Kidd's body was obviously stronger than Nash's, so he didn't suffer any disadvantages in his hard defense. However, Nash was also very smart and didn't fight Kidd one-on-one. After halftime,
Just call various high-post pick-and-rolls, and then use the screen to quickly leave the defensive circle and get to the Tang Qian team's basket.
In this game, Tang Qian and other teammates have agreed that if Nash wants to come in, let him come in without the need to defend. Because instead of letting the opponent disrupt the defensive lineup and take the opportunity to score points, it is better to fight one-on-one.
, let the team's big center protect the basket. This may be better for the Suns' suppression.
Sure enough, Nash collided with Tang Qian after taking off the ball, but he failed to score the ball and the basketball missed the basket.
Tang Qian team's Jordan Hill got the rebound and then passed it to Kidd. Kidd immediately passed it to Paul George who was going down the double line. Paul George scored a layup. This tactic worked in the first quarter.
, the Suns' team score was suppressed to 25 points. Although it is not low, compared with the previous two games, it is already very good.
27-25, Tang Qian leads the Phoenix Suns.
However, the good times did not last long, and Nash soon made adjustments. His whole body was in great condition, and then he made two consecutive three-pointers. Fortunately, the referee judged that the second three-pointer was off the line, which allowed Tang Qian to
The team escaped disaster. The biggest difference between Nash and Kidd came out. Nash at his peak had extremely strong offensive ability. Even though he only averaged 15+ points per game in the 2004-05 regular season, he immediately soared in the playoffs and improved to 10 points per game.
Both were close to 24 points, and their shooting percentage entered the "180 Super Efficient Club".
What about Kidd? He only exceeded 20 points in the playoffs in one season in his career, and it was just over 0.1 points. His shooting percentage was appalling, only about 40%, and it took him 17+ shots to barely score 20+ points. What about Nash? He also took 17+ shots.
But he can average close to 24+ points per game, which is much higher than Kidd's average of 4+ points per game. And accurate three-pointers are something Kidd will never learn in his life.
27-30, the Suns overtook the score as soon as they came up.
Team Tang Qian once again fell into the role of pursuer.
After halftime, the Suns still scored almost 50 points. What about Tang Qian's team? Without Kidd's organization, the overall shooting rate was very unsightly. Only 39 points were scored at halftime, which was a full 10-point difference from the former.
.Tang Qian only rested for 4 minutes in the entire second quarter and scored 11 rebounds in the half, but he still could not stop the Suns from scoring points.
39-49, the two sides returned to the locker room.
"It won't work like this." Kidd said first: "It's difficult to control the No. 1 position one-on-one. They basically don't do things like one-on-one. No matter how much I guard, it's of no use.
"Kidd's words were recognized by most people present, because Nash did not have a single one-on-one single in the entire first half, and they were all shots after pick-and-rolls. This made Kidd's strong defense almost all in vain.
It didn't have the desired effect.
On the contrary, Tang Qian's team became a mess because of the lack of Kidd's offensive organization.
"But, what else can we do? Is there no way to win?" Jordan Hill asked again.
After a brief silence in the locker room, Jason Kidd said: "Our team's tacit understanding is not good, and the overall defensive operation is not good. In this case, it is difficult to defend the other team. So if we want to win,
We can only attack them." "Attack? Isn't that asking for death? This Suns team's offense is too strong, we have no chance of winning!" Jordan Hill jumped out and said.
"There is no other way." Kidd suddenly turned to look at Tang Qian and said: "In fact, the main force of our team's offensive firepower is not weak. Even just looking at the outside, we are much stronger than them. Both Paul and Ray
He is a person who has both off and on the ball. Marion and Johnson on the opposite side are not as good as them." Tang Qian nodded. He knew that Kidd was telling the truth. Paul George and Ray Allen were both on the ball.
Players who won't lose their game in the playoffs are much better than Marion and Joe Johnson. "Then why can't we open up from the outside?" Kidd said bluntly: "It's not that the Suns' defense is too strong.
, they completely expected that our team's inside attack is too weak. That's why they will defend more and more outside, and the focus of defense will become more and more high. In this case, what do you want Paul and Ray to do?
There are too many offensive contributions, which is really overwhelming."
"So now, we need you to score inside." Kidd stared at Lakers No. 29 and said, "Hot, can you do it?"
…
If you think about it carefully, Kidd's words hit the nail on the head. If your inside offense is so bad, of course I can stop worrying so much about guarding. In this way, it is actually an invisible "damage" and invisible "torture" to the team's outside teammates.
.
So now, inside players have to score.
At 10 points per game, it's really not painful, and the Suns don't feel any harm.
In the second half, the main players returned to the court, and Tang Qian's team turned to Kidd holding the ball again, but the offensive mode seemed to have changed slightly compared to the previous two games. Tang Qian and Jordan Hill both started to move inside.
No longer just standing around watching the show, just working hard on rebounds.
Tang Qian began to take advantage of his body and moved crazily. Kidd had quick eyes and quick hands and passed the ball in time. Tang Qian slipped to the bottom twice in a row and successfully "stealed the basket". The Suns didn't pay much attention at first, but when the Lakers
When No. 29 scored the 8th point of the third quarter, Nash frowned slightly and said to the "little bully" Stoudemire: "Amare, pay attention to your opponent. He is in this quarter.
He has scored a lot of points. Let him be a little less angry." Stoudemire understood what Nash meant, nodded and said: "Okay, I understand, I will take better care of him, don't worry, Steve.
"
The Suns scored another two points, and it was Tang Qian's turn to attack again.
Ray Allen missed a three-pointer from the left, and the rebound was blocked by Tang Qian, who then forcibly picked it off.
Tang Qian wanted to take action immediately, but the ball was blocked by the Suns at position 5. Amare Stoudemire, his rim protection numbers this season are still good, averaging 2+ per game.
. Tang Qian saw through his offensive intentions and got a big blow without any discussion.
The Suns took the opportunity to launch a defensive counterattack, and then Joe Johnson scored a three-pointer from a 45-degree angle on the right side.
Brush~
The basketball hit the net, and the Staples Center was filled with sadness.
Tang Qian missed another attack and was blocked by Stoudemire, which directly caused the Suns' defense, which had just shrunk a bit, to expand again, allowing Tang Qian's team's outside line to continue to be taken care of.
Jordan Hill also missed a shot. The Suns took the opportunity to push quickly and Steve Nash hit the net with a 20-foot 2-pointer from the top of the arc.
The Suns' lead reached 16 points.
"Boy Dongfang, you want to attack without the ball in front of me?" Amar'e Stoudemire smiled contemptuously and said: "You are still too young. Just go home and practice for ten more years."
" Tang Qian became angry when he heard this. He wanted to mobilize his anger and attack "Rage", but unfortunately, this attempt failed.
Even if he masters a certain secret of "ignition", it is not 100% successful. It just means that Tang Qian has a certain degree of "autonomy" compared to before.
Until the end of the third game, Tang Qian's team didn't catch up, no, they didn't even have a chance to get close.
The game was defeated by 18 points, and they suffered a three-game losing streak.
Tang Qian scored 14 points, 18 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 assist in this game, but his shooting percentage tonight was only about 40%. He shot high and hit low. In front of Stoudemire, the Lakers
No. 29 is considered a failure. In terms of off-ball ability and off-ball experience, he is far behind the former. I dare not say anything else. Until now, Stoudemire's offensive strength has not been fully utilized, because the Suns easily
Then the opponent will be destroyed. Otherwise, Tang Qian's team will only lose more miserably.
How can this kind of team win? Tang Qian saw a series of problems, and each of these problems seemed to be fatal.
Could it be that...we are going to lose? We will stop at the third level?
Isn’t it true that my own strength can’t even be seen on the seventh level?
0-3, this is a series score that is almost impossible to reverse. Tang Qian knows very well what this big score means. The entire Tang Qian team also knows very well what this big score means. So the morale of the team,
It immediately dispersed.
As I said, the drama of "different space" is alive for everyone. Although Tang Qian doesn't know how "different space" is achieved, it is obvious that after the series score of 0-3, the team's overall
Morale collapsed instantly and irreversibly.
Tang Qian had no choice but to think about how to win at the next opportunity.
It is not unreasonable to give three challenge opportunities on each floor of "different space".
Dayan fifty, Heavenly Dao forty-nine, there will always be a glimmer of hope, as long as you can find it.
There are many problems. The Suns are very strong and they must be solved one by one.
After Tang Qian sorted out all the problems, he prioritized them one by one. For example, the team's tacit understanding and chemical reaction were not something he could solve at all, so he decisively jumped over them. He only looked for things he could improve.
Start with it.
The area where Tang Qian needs to improve most is scoring.
That's the score Kidd mentioned.
If you want to increase the chance of success in defeating this peak Suns, you must be able to score inside. Otherwise, the offensive pressure on the outside will be too great, and even the stars will be prone to fluctuations in status and mentality. The Spurs were able to defeat the Suns that year, GDP
The combination adds up to nearly 70 points, which is key. Duncan's average of 27+ per game is the top priority.
It seems that the score is not as good as Stoudemire, or even suppressed completely, but if you miss the game and average 27+, let's see if the Spurs can still win? Tang Qian's two starting inside players combined are not enough.
With an average of 20 points, it would be strange not to lose.
Without team tacit understanding and chemical reaction, inside scoring is indispensable.
Coupled with Horry's 10+ points and Muhammad's 8+ points, the Spurs' interior can output at least 45+ points per game. Where is Tang Qian's team now? Together with the interior substitutes, it may be at most 25+ points.
, or even less than that. Without the gap of 20+ inside points, if you want to challenge the Suns like the Spurs, it will be difficult to achieve success.
Therefore, Kidd's words reminded Tang Qian and made him actively seek breakthroughs in this regard.
Tang Qian's offensive crystal bricks currently have 5 pieces, and they have not been touched for a long time. In terms of accumulation, they should have accumulated to a saturation state, but that "final kick" cannot be kicked out. It is always held back. Because it has been
There was no pressure to succeed in the challenge, so Tang Qian began to transform into a "singles emperor" in the fourth game. What is a "singles emperor"? It means attacking by yourself when you have the opportunity, and never passing the ball if you can.
Throughout Tang Qian's career, unless he activated a specific ability card or became furious, there was basically no time to be a "singles king". Because if you play like this in real games, first of all, the head coach and management will not forgive you, fans
What about us? What's more, spraying like a dog is easy. But in this "time and space", Tang Qian doesn't have this pressure anymore.
So he kept doing nothing and began to turn into a "big lone wolf", running around without the ball and catching the ball to attack.
Tang Qian took a total of 34 shots in the whole game. Needless to think about this, it was definitely the first time since Tang Qian started playing professional basketball that he took so many shots in a single game. Including 7 free throws, in fact there will be 3~4 more.
With this calculation, the actual number of shots is close to 40. For a No. 5 position to shoot like this and make such a shot, it is really suspected of "indiscriminate shooting".
If this was the real world and there was no guarantee of winning, then it would definitely be blasted.
But here, Tang Qian had no such worries and completely indulged himself on the court.
Without thinking too much, Tang Qian's team must have lost. They were defeated by 36 points. They were swept by their opponents 0-4 in the series and failed in the first challenge. Tang Qian scored 27 points and 12 rebounds in the fourth game.
He blocked 1 shot and provided an assist, and his shooting percentage was less than 40%. But when he withdrew from this first challenge opportunity, there was not much frustration on his face.
Because, finally, something broke through.
That's right, the offensive crystal tiles that haven't been touched for a long time have finally been increased from 5 to 6.
"Different Space" judged this attribute to be "qualified" and awarded a bronze score card. Tang Qian stretched out his hand to check and found that this new card was simply an advanced version of the previous bronze fixed score card. The content of the ability card is introduced as follows,
By activating this card, you can get a fixed score of 30.1 points equivalent to 30 points in a single game, which will not overlap with the previous score number.
30.1 points? Isn't this the career average score of "Dashuai Zhang"? Sure enough, the offensive crystal brick has been improved to pass, and the reward is not cheap. However, Tang Qian doesn't know how much the specific improvement has been. He needs to use the game to test it carefully.
Breakthrough results.
But before that, there were some changes in the "calendar board". These changes quickly attracted Tang Qian's attention.
