As expected, the Lakers returned to their original style of play after losing Nash. Individual singles began to increase in large numbers, and the series and fluency decreased sharply. Moreover, the "fast whirlwind" of the previous playoffs disappeared and turned into stoppage and slow play. Rhythm.
This is normal. If you want Jordan Farmar to connect this Lakers, you are just talking nonsense if you don't tell a joke.
Not to mention the ability is far behind, but the courage and spirit are not up to par.
The efficiency of the attack began to decline. For example, the first 4 goals were not scored. Kobe obviously was not in a hurry to attack at the beginning. He still wanted to activate the team in series. However, the effect was not good. Instead, the Heat defended The counterattacks ended several times. This made Zhang Lili of Tianchao Sports Station couldn't help but said: "We can't fight like this, we have to score."
Yes, you have to score, otherwise you will be at a disadvantage at the start.
The broadcast of the NBA Finals is all broadcast by ABC, and the bias is not obvious. It is not as "selective" as the previous playoffs, which were broadcast by ESPN and T.N.T. This is normal. For the finals, it is still a little bit It seems "fair and just". But this is just a superficial phenomenon, because if you watch the live broadcast of the finals in the United States, you will find that it is basically the same broadcast team of ESPN. The reason is very simple, AB's parent company , and at the same time, they all belong to a super large group company.
Therefore, bias still exists.
If it is released, it is estimated that many domestic Lakers fans will "jump".
At the same time, the struggle on the Internet is a battle of wonders and a hundred flowers blooming:
Look, let’s just say the Lakers are no good! Still want to fight us in Miami? Still want to fight our King James?
Kill the Lakers in one go! Just like we killed St. Anthony last year! No one can stop our "Heat Dynasty"!
Only a few minutes into the game? You can already tell that the Lakers are not as good as the Heat? Why are your faces so big? Do you think you have the ability to foresee?
After resuming the game after the timeout, the Lakers adjusted their style of play. Kobe began to take the initiative to attack with the ball, and his opponent was Dwyane Wade, who was said to be "on par" with him at the peak of his peak position. Look. Looking at Wade and listening to the "trash talk" from Wade's mouth, Kobe easily broke through the Heat's No. 3 defense with a fast triple-threat probing step and body shaking.
If you have seen the isolation ratio of outside players, you will know that Wade’s isolation ratio is not high, far inferior to that of Kobe Bryant, the league’s singles madman since statistics began to be collected in the 21st century. If you are "Wade Black" , then you must be familiar with it. Wade has a very "pick-and-roll" nickname, called "The Pick-and-Roll Man."
And the meaning of "Pick-and-roll man", that is, the literal meaning, of course does not refer to the peak period, but mainly refers to Miami's late decline period. During this period, Wade's super explosive power and breakthrough, which he was previously proud of, began to be weakened. , and the "endurance. endurance" of the body is not as good as that of those historical super players. Therefore... when the mid-to-long distance is not stable, if you want to use your own offense and start to use more pick-and-rolls, that is also a trend. Something that must be done.
But to be honest, Wade's aging rate is much faster than that of Kobe. Perhaps it is because he was seriously injured in college, but "physical endurance" is also a hard indicator of ability, so Wade's true peak , In fact, it’s not that long. For example, in the 12-13 season, when Kobe was still averaging 27+ per game, when Kobe was still in the first team, what about Wade? He could barely score more than 20 points. The most important thing is, no matter the score, Or assists, they are still worse than Kobe. You said Wade has a high shooting percentage? First of all, Wade has not had the breakthrough energy since 2009, so the shooting percentage has begun to drop to 47.6%, so why does the data look like Repeatedly setting new highs? It turns out to be very simple. The Heat have the arrival of peak James and peak Bosh. Under the defensive guidance of these two people, the offensive pressure will naturally decrease and the shooting rate will increase. It is normal. Look at the same addition later. Durant of the Warriors, you know how important the more powerful stars in the team are to improving the shooting percentage.
As soon as James left, Wade had a career-high field goal percentage of 54.5% last season. How much was left? 47%! How much did he drop? How much did he decline? After that, it went all the way down! I feel like
Are you "hacking" Wade? No, because it still gives him face. If you look at the shooting percentage in the playoffs, you will know that even with the additions of James and Bosh, it is still not good-looking. Compared with the regular season
The decline is obvious. Therefore, Wade this season, although he is only 3132 years old, has lost his ability as an outside superstar. The offensive and defensive integration has disintegrated early.
Starting from the 13-14 season, Wade has never been in the best team again. If he wants to face off against Kobe, who is currently at his all-round peak, there are only two words: he will be blown. Whether it is the offensive or defensive end, there is no doubt that he will be blown away.
Unless he can regain his physical and super powers now in 2006, he will be beaten into a scumbag by No. 24 at this position.
Kobe broke through Wade, shot, brushed and hit, and the Lakers scored the first point.
Wade was still a little unconvinced at this time, and wanted to fight back in the next round, but the moment he got the ball, No. 24 cut him off, and then watched Kobe Bryant's solo fast break, turn and dunk.
I forgot to mention a statistic. This season, Kobe is the king of outside dunks.
The desire for dunks has reached the peak of his career. It has exceeded 200+ times in the regular season this season! What is the concept? Basically, there is no outside player who can compare with him. Wade’s highest is only 150+ times. After the season
He also exceeded 40 times in the game. It is estimated that he will probably reach 50+ times after the finals! 50+ dunks in the playoffs! There is not much inside, but it is a bit unbelievable when placed on the outside! It can be seen that Kobe Bryant
How "crazy" it is to play this season!
Kobe Bryant of the Lakers scored 4 points and 1 steal in a row, and they were all scored on Wade's head. Of course Wade was a little angry. He still thinks very highly of himself at the moment, thinking that he is the third best scorer in history, not as good as Kobe.
It's not like he was beaten like this. He wanted to retaliate! This is normal. They are both famous stars and they are in the same position. It is impossible not to secretly compete with each other!
During his peak period, he really enjoyed playing against Kobe.
However, he picked the wrong time. At this time, he has reached an underestimated point in his career. Maybe he didn't even realize it in the playoffs. He played in a mess. Why will James leave in the future? Do you think it's Bosh?
Has his condition declined much? No, Bosh's condition has actually been maintained well. The few points scored in the playoffs are just the number of shots taken. If you take about 10 shots, you won't get too many points for anyone. Besides, history
It has been proven that as soon as James left, Bosh's condition immediately surged! He suddenly returned to the 21+ level! Furthermore, his shooting percentage in the playoffs has been maintained well, and he will not decline like Wade.
Big. So a big reason why James left is actually that Wade's condition declined too fast, and he is not as good as he was back then! If he was still the "Flash" back then, would James have left and gone back to play "hometown basketball"?
It’s not necessary. Among the top three to five top “Flash” players in the league, where can you find such teammates? They are not greedy for power and are willing to be a “supporting role”! Such a person is really rare in history.
Found it!
Of course, Wade is still relatively "smart" in this game. He did not choose to beat Kobe Bryant hard. He chose to be a "pick-and-roll man"!
At this time, in the ABC commentary live broadcast room, Rachel Nix was listening to several guest speakers "talking":
"Although Bryant is very strong, I think his peak is only about the same as Wade. He hit two consecutive balls in front of him. The 'Flash' will definitely stand up and respond to this ball! Wade is in the regular season this year.
The shooting percentage has reached a career high, close to 55%! As a No. 2 position, this is simply a super level! Although Kobe also has the highest shooting percentage in his career, it is still not as good as Wade..." It was Chris who spoke.
Weber, who was "hacked" by the Lakers when he was in the Kings, has always been a little "unhappy" with the Lakers' main players at the time, and now he also has a sense of "revenge". Otherwise, he should know better than anyone else, Kobe and Wade
Different playing styles and different shooting percentages are normal. Furthermore, the defensive pressure Wade faces now is not as good as that of Kobe. James has helped him share too much. The most important thing is that Webber only talks about shooting percentages and not the field.
The gap in average points and output is ridiculous. How many points did Wade have in the regular season this season? Just 19+! To put it bluntly, he didn’t even have half of the number 24. Furthermore, the Lakers had 40-50 games ahead of them.
How is the game played? It's mainly singles! Chris Webber himself is an NBA player. It's impossible for him not to know this. However, he just wants to say this and mislead the audience watching the national live broadcast! Otherwise, he can do it with just one sentence
I'm speechless. On the defensive end, Kobe and Wade can't even catch up this season.
Doesn’t this difference need to be calculated?
"It's right to fight back. Wade's personal ability is also very strong. He did this to show his strength and warn the Lakers' No. 24 not to be so unscrupulous and arrogant..." These words were said by Green Army star Qiao Qiao.
What White said, obviously, as a member of the Celtics, he will never have any "nice words" to say about the Lakers.
However, the result was a slap in the face.
Because Wade was caught up with the ball by Kobe and slapped him on the back of his head. He was about to break through and attack, and was completely scattered.
The Lakers got the ball and started to advance in the half.
At this time, Tang Qian said half-jokingly: "Hey, Mr. Black Mamba, you stole a block from me! You must remember to pay me after the game!"
Wade was so angry that he couldn't help it, but it was all in vain.
He wanted to attack again on the next ball, but unexpectedly, the "pick-and-roll man" didn't take it seriously. The screen was snatched away by No. 24, who pressed him all the way, making his shot almost "hollow outside the basket." Wade still wanted to play this ball.
He wanted to cheat a whistle, but the referee ignored it, because before there was an obvious sweeping trend, David Stern had already explained in advance that it must be fair and just, and try not to have too many "star whistles" and
The "home whistle" favors the side.
The old man of Jewish descent is ready to let No. 23 and No. 24, oh, sorry, No. 6 and No. 24, have a fair fight on the highest competitive stage of world basketball.
At least that's what he was prepared to do until he no longer had the intention to sweep away.
So neither James nor Kobe will have any "star whistles" for a while. You, a "sliding version" of Wade who is no longer on the defensive line and is not the best lineup, still want a whistle? If you are not overthinking, what are you? The referee has no idea.
Ignore it and just turn a blind eye.
hateful!
Wade was dissatisfied, but had no choice but to turn around and go back to defense.
"Bryant wants to play in isolation again? He is too confident. His current opponent is Dwyane Wade, the third-highest shooting scorer in history. Do you think he is a cat or a dog? He has been playing a role player in singles continuously and wants to play Wade in isolation.
Germany... uh, scored, good, good goal." Before Jojo White could finish speaking, he was slapped by the reality of the situation, and successfully singled out Wade again on the 24th.
Judging from the feeling, it seems like it's not too strenuous at all.
Nonsense! What kind of defensive state is Wade in this season? The defensive formation is not the same. Can it be compared with Leonard of the Spurs who improved wildly in the last round of playoffs? Leonard was in the last round of playoffs.
Has the game reached a level of DOPY or almost two consecutive DPOY defenses? Wade? This is a bit far behind. At his peak, his defense was several levels behind Leonard's.
After all, the highest number of defenses in a career is 3 times, and they are all 2 defenses. It is strange to be compared with Leonard.
For two consecutive DPOYs from the outside, Jordan probably had to give up a considerable part of his offensive energy to achieve this.
For such a monster, there is no problem in saying that the defense is several gears ahead of Wade.
Don't talk about defensive WS data, etc. The shortcomings of this data have been popularized before. It can be used as a reference, and there is no need to use it as truth. After all, unless you feel that the head coach does not understand the game as well as you.
Besides, you have no defense in your career, and you still want to compare yourself with two DPOY users in a row? Isn’t this funny?
Facing this Wade, the Wade of the 13-14 season, and the Kobe Bryant of this season, it just felt like it was easy, So.easy.
"This is actually a normal thing. Everyone feels smooth sometimes, let alone Kobe. But I believe Wade will adjust soon. In my mind, he has always been on the same level as No. 24.
Players exist." Chris Webber forcibly "blown" Wade, but Wade was really not good enough. He was beaten by Kobe one after another, and he became a bit of an "air man" on the defensive end, as if he could not exert any influence on his opponents.
A sense of defensive pressure.
This made Wade no longer in the mood to talk "trash" to Kobe. Of course, No. 24 ignored his "trash talk" from the beginning to the end of the game. Wade at this level, Wade this season
Germany, I can only say something bad. If you defend Kobe alone, you will give points to Kobe.
Fortunately for the Heat, James organized a group of resistance, which prevented the score from being paralyzed in the first quarter.
23-21 in a single quarter, the Lakers led by 2 points entering the second quarter.
It can be seen that without Nash, the Lakers' offensive rhythm has indeed changed. The previous situation of frequently 30+40+ in a single quarter no longer exists. The Heat also failed in the first quarter due to Wade's defense.
The defensive counterattack tactics were not used even once, so the score difference was not high either.
At the end of the first quarter, Tang Qian asked himself to take a rest, because he no longer had the "god descending from heaven", and the "inner demon" had cut off 15% of his competitive status tonight, so his physical fitness would naturally be reduced.
Correspondingly, it is reduced even more.
You must make a good total, make a good calculation, and make good use of it.
Otherwise, he will be unable to be used at the most critical moment, and it will be a huge loss.
The Heat's offense in this quarter exploded at the end, otherwise their deficit would have been more than 2 points.
In the second quarter, the Heat started to score consecutively. With Wade repeatedly reminding him to "strengthen the pick-and-roll and screen quality", the Heat's No. 3 scored 7 points at the beginning of the second quarter, as if he had swept away the previous ones.
of decline.
"Bryant, how do I feel about this wave?" After Wade hit a 2+1, he couldn't help but brag to Kobe. Who knew that what he got in exchange was a cold irony: "
If you don't pick and roll, you won't be able to make half a wave."
"you……"
Wade was so angry that the ball didn't go in. The basketball hit the basket, but the rebound was grabbed by the Heat. Jordan Hill, who replaced Tang Qian on the field, didn't adapt to the atmosphere and intensity of the finals at all.
Bosh James rushed to the backboard and then shot from the basket.
"Don't worry, Dwayne, he said that on purpose." James comforted Wade like his boss after scoring the goal.
"I know." Wade replied somewhat angrily.
And I don’t know how this sentence was heard by Kobe. On the 24th, he said: "Who said I did it on purpose? You know I don’t like telling lies." Wade, who had just calmed down a little, said, "Hey
" was rising again, but No. 24 was not afraid at all: "It's useless to be angry. On the basketball court, strength speaks for itself."
Is this guy so imposing and intimidating? It's like, it's like... he's back in 2005.
He returned to the way he faced him when he first joined the alliance.
Wade was a little dazed for a moment.
With James taking control of the team, the Heat took the opportunity to beat the Lakers to a climax. At this time, the importance of Tang Qian was seen. With him and without him, the Lakers' defensive system is completely different.
But if Tang Qianqian, Chris Anderson and Sean Battier's two inside shots just now would be difficult to get in.
Gasol tried his best defensively, but his mobility and defense ability are not as good as their peak now, so he can't take into account some defensive loopholes inside. Besides, Gasol's defensive air cuts and movement penetration are not good in the first place. He can
It's good to take care of his own business. It's hard to force him to help Jordan Hill again. It's even more of a dream to ask him to switch defenses on a large scale to make up for the defense.
Although Gasol's defense has always been above the standard and his attitude is very correct, if you say how strong his defense is, forget it.
Not having to defend once in his career is an example of this.
During the Heat's attack, LeBron James broke through and hit him with a tomahawk dunk!
This goal also boosted the morale of the Miami team and increased the mood of the game a lot.
Players with strong athletic ability have always been a "bitter opponent" for Gasol. The countless background scenes in Gasol's career are the best evidence. He cannot defend the Lakers' basket as powerfully as Tang Qian.
So of course the Heat will take the opportunity to have an offensive climax.
I originally thought that the Lakers would play the entire game again on the 29th just like they did in the last few games against the Spurs. Fortunately... his physical condition was not enough.
Huh~ James breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
PS: There are 2 updates tonight~ This is the first update~ Let’s start with a big chapter~ It’s okay to add more when Xiao Zi feels better, right~ Woohoo~
