"Tang, don't always think about changing everything by yourself. The opponent is too strong and it's impossible for one person to succeed. It's useless even if Jordan comes." Jerry Sloan pointed out the misunderstanding that Tang Qian entered. "What do you mean?

"Sir? How do you defeat your opponent?" Tang Qian asked.

"We must use the essence of basketball to defeat our opponents!" Jerry Sloan said: "The essence of basketball is to use the team to defeat individuals."

"Using a team to defeat an individual? This..." Tang Qian looked a little doubtful, because in the United States, it is obvious that the critical moment is the superstar's personal stage. If you give other role players opportunities, they will be under too much pressure. Many times, even if they are open,

It can't produce good results. Huh? Wait? Role players? There are no so-called role players in our team.

Of the five people on the court now, who is not an All-Star? Such a team...

"I know your doubts." Jerry Sloan said: "But believe me, if we compete one-on-one with the team coached by Phil Jackson, and compete with the stars in singles, we will definitely lose. His tactical system, tactics

Concepts are all serving this juncture. So if we want to win, we can only rely on the team." "But our team strength is not as good as our opponents, sir, this cannot be ignored." Tang Qian's question was not

Jerry Sloan did not stump him. The old man smiled and said: "The team I am talking about is not just what you think. The team and the individual are always inseparable. Without individuals, how can there be a team?

"

"So what do you mean?"

"Have you seen the competitive state of Ray and Stephen?" Jerry Sloan actually enjoyed this kind of ultimate showdown, especially the ultimate showdown with Phil Jackson, which ignited his desire to win, and said

: "What you have to do is not only ignite yourself, but also ignite them! As the soul of a team, this is what you must master!"

"It's not enough to ignite one person, so ignite 2, 3, 4, and then the effect of the team will come out."

"Don't be superstitious about your opponent's historical status and honor. Victory or defeat is always determined by fighting, not judging!"

"Let us go up and kill them!!!"

Jerry Sloan spoke so domineeringly, which was beyond Tang Qian's expectation. In fact, he didn't understand the former. The former has always had such a "bad temper" since his days as a player. NBA life, famous sayings

, too many to count.

People who come from farms speak in such a down-to-earth manner.

Don’t play fake!

His coaching style and coaching school are completely different from those of "Zen Master" Jackson.

But these words reminded Tang Qian that it is impossible for one person to defeat this legendary Lakers team. It is like asking you to fight against the dream team by yourself. No matter how defiant you are, you can still win over a group of people.

Daniel? Do you think he is just a paper person in name only?

Therefore, Jerry Sloan's words played a great role in stimulating Tang Qian and this game.

In order to increase scoring points, Tang Qian asked Sloan to temporarily replace Ben Wallace and replace him with Pau Gasol from the 2005-06 season. At least the "Gasol" during the Grizzlies period was a stable scorer of 20+.

This is much better than Wallace. Of course, his defense and rebounding are far inferior to the latter, but now Tang Qian inside has a golden block card to support his defense, and his rebounding can also suppress Wilt Chamberlain, so he is the same as Jerry Sloan.

After discussion, they decided to take risks and make dangerous moves.

But as soon as he came on the court, "Add a Sister-in-Law" was a surprise. Not only was Chamberlain's hat-trick in the offense, but Kareem Abdul-Jabbar also blocked the rebounder. He didn't play the role that the 4th position should have at all. Sloan couldn't help himself off the court.

Tang Qian originally wanted to say a few words, but loudly reprimanded the Grizzly Gasol, but many images flashed through his mind:

Wait, before Gasol won two consecutive championships, his playing style was actually very soft, at least in the playoffs, it was very obvious.

He is really not a bad guy. He is a very strong second-in-command, with a high golf IQ, extraordinary height and wingspan, and his endurance and endurance are among the top among European big men. But, he cannot be the first-in-command.

Not to mention leading the team to 12 wins and 0 losses in the playoffs, the main reason is that the average data in the playoffs dropped significantly during the period when I was leading the team. You said it doesn’t look much different from the regular season? No, look at the data comprehensively.

Gasol's average data per game may be the same as the regular season during the years he led the team, but the shooting percentage is not very different except for the first year when people are not familiar with you and are not targeting you. From the second year onwards, the playoffs are the same.

A big landslide in a year.

Can you imagine a 7-foot big man who shot only 43.3% in the series??? When Kobe’s 45% shooting rate was criticized by the "Blacksmith", an inside All-Star player only shot 43.3% in the playoffs.

43.3%? This is seriously unqualified. In the year when he led the team with his best performance, he averaged 21.3 points in the series after taking 20 shots per game. The efficiency was really worrying. He averaged only 3 free throws per game in the series, which was also hard.

Injury, indicating lack of lethality. Not to mention the fact that his rebounding data has also plummeted. Why was he given the nickname "Jiasao"? In addition to saying that he and Kobe have a tacit understanding like a husband and wife, there is also a preference for his inside game.

A soft irony.

The Lakers did not change this until the Lakers won two consecutive championships, successfully helping Kobe Bryant break through the Western Conference and finally "assume the throne."

Therefore, it is not surprising that Gasol played quite softly in the 2005-06 season.

After all, in this season's playoffs, his shooting percentage was only 43.3% and he only averaged 6.8 rebounds per game.

With nearly 40+ playing time, this kind of data is similar to that of Lopez of the Nets. Leading the team alone, the disadvantage in rebounding is clearly visible.

But now, the scoring point of Gasol is indispensable. After Tang Qian thought for a while, he walked to Gasol, who looked a little depressed, and opened his mouth and said: "Paul, you can't play like this. You will only marginalize yourself by playing like this."

Hua, we need you now."

Gasol's eyes were dull and he said: "How can I play? This is how I play. The opponent is too strong and I can't do anything about it. Moreover, I have too few opportunities to touch the ball and I can't feel it." Gasol said.

As soon as the words came out, Tang Qian immediately thought of what he saw from Kobe Bryant's words to motivate him last season. And after saying this, Gasol immediately became in excellent condition and his performance improved in many consecutive games.

So this conversation was published in the Los Angeles Times.

Gasol is still a European insider at heart, he likes to complain, and he doesn't have such a strong heart, so... he needs someone to encourage him.

Motivation from time to time.

"Paul! You're wrong to say that!" Tang Qian suddenly put on a serious face and said: "You have a lot of opportunities to touch the ball, but as soon as you get the ball, you pass the ball or take a shot outside the penalty area.

Maintaining offensive firepower like this? How do you find the offensive feeling?" "I passed the ball because the opponent was too strong. I didn't have the confidence to attack the basket, and your position was better, so I chose to pass the ball to support." Gasol.

The words were indeed the same as what he heard last time. Tang Qian immediately said loudly: "Why is our attack position better? Have you ever thought about it?"

"Because your movement and interweaving are better."

"Why are our movements and interleaving better?" Tang Qian asked rhetorically.

"Because...because..." Gasol was speechless and couldn't answer. Tang Qian shouted, "Because you are too soft! Because you are afraid of confrontation! Because you are not aggressive enough in playing! So

You are always where you want and can't catch the ball! So you are always reduced to a passer! This is not your sacrifice! This is caused by your timidity and fear!"

"Let me ask you." Seeing that Gasol was confused, Tang Qian immediately asked: "Do you want to be tough? Do you have the desire to score in the low post? Yes???" Gasol was hesitant.

Said: "I, of course I do. Of course I want to be tough."

"Okay~" Tang Qian said: "Then prove it to me."

"How can I prove it?" Gasol said.

"It's simple! Just be aggressive all the time! It's up to you!"

This sentence was added by Tang Qian himself. When he turned and ran to the frontcourt, he dropped a sentence to the Spaniard and said: "Whether the egg shrinks or erects, others cannot decide. The only thing that can decide is always

yourself."

"I believe in you, but you must first not believe in yourself."

Gasol was stunned when he heard this. After a few seconds, his whole person faintly changed.

McGrady missed an outside shot, and Tang Qian and Chamberlain blocked the position inside. To be honest, just one Lakers No. 13 was enough for him. If there was another Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, he would probably... replace Ben Wallace.

Was it a mistake?

Just as he was thinking about it? Tang Qian suddenly realized that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did not force his way over and double-team him like he did in the last round.

Turning his head, he discovered that it was Grizzlies No. 16 "fighting" with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the other side of the low post.

And obviously, the Spaniard's bullfighting blood was awakened by himself.

He also entered "The.Zone"!

OK! Now that the entire team is basically in "The.Zone", the next step is to activate T-M!

At this moment, Tang Qian realized how difficult it is to be the core of the team. He is not only responsible for the offense and defense on the field, but also the competitive state and mental psychology of his teammates. These are also things that the core should be responsible for.

Then why are there so many core tasks? There is no reason, just because you are the core and because you get the most money. Isn’t this reason enough?

The game has entered a fever pitch, and both sides are fighting with all their strength. At this time, Curry's role is finally highlighted. It is said that scoring 2 points stably and chasing points rely on 3 points. If you want to quickly narrow the score gap, the three-pointer is the key.

key.

Fortunately, this series is now played according to the rules of the second decade of the 21st century.

Moreover, Tang Qian’s team has the strongest marksman in NBA history, Warriors No. 30, Stephen Curry.

After Curry became a "super god", under this rule, he was full of firepower. Although he was beaten twice by the "Magician", he showed no mercy on the offensive end. He hit three consecutive three-pointers and the score difference quickly narrowed.

It's in the single digits.

When the Lakers were attacking, "Magic" Johnson wanted to continue to hit Curry with his back in a misplaced position, but Curry forced him to defend him. It can be seen that Stephen Curry is not only on the offensive end, he should be "super awesome" in all aspects.

The Tang Qian team took the opportunity to rush down. Curry dribbled to prepare for a three-point attack. The legendary Lakers quickly double-teamed. At this time, Curry chose to pass the ball and the basketball flew to the open corner. The person standing there

, it’s the Sonics, Ray Allen.

Ray Allen took action, and the legendary Lakers quickly rotated their defense. Almost at the same time, Kobe flew out and dived to block the ball.

The final whistle sounded, a three-pointer was scored, No. 24 committed a defensive foul, and an additional free throw was required!

Tang Qian's team's momentum increased significantly.

There is more than 1 minute left, we still have a chance!!!

Tang Qian clenched his fist secretly on the field and said.
