Chapter 858 Booster and Offense (Big chapter here~)

"What should I do?" Tang Qian looked at Kobe and asked.

Now the situation is unfavorable, the score is behind, and it is meaningless to say nothing.

"I need your support," Kobe said.

"Rebounds? Defensive end? I will try my best for Bryant, you don't need to talk about these things." Before Tang Qian finished speaking, he interrupted on the 24th and said: "No, no, not only These." Bryant said: "I need more support."

"More?" Tang Qian was taken aback, a little confused.

"In addition to rebounding and defense, I also need your offense, offense, more.offense!"

"Bryant, you, aren't you joking? Are you sure? Me?" Tang Qian asked repeatedly with some uncertainty.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Kobe didn't smile at all, but looked at Tang Qian more seriously: "If you want to beat this Spurs team, I can't do it alone. The third grade who defended me Sheng, he is not a rookie, his single defense ability is extremely strong, even if it is me, it is impossible to achieve my expected state. Therefore, I, the Lakers, need a new point to stand out." "But me?" Tang Qian Feeling a bit abrupt, and even a little unprepared: "Why not Paul? This aspect of him..."

"Paul was off tonight, didn't you see him play badly the whole series?"

"Bryant, it's easy to say anything else, but this one, are you sure it's me? I don't even have much confidence in myself." Tang Qian was telling the truth, because the so-called "offense" means offense and offensive.And Kobe wants to attack by himself?Or the playoffs?Or the Spurs?Isn't this crazy?And if Paul didn't play well, how could my offense be any better?
Because even in the regular season, Tang Qian's independent offense is extremely limited. Even if he starts to attack hard at the basket, it will only strengthen the original blank, and it does not mean that he is a reliable offensive player and offensive point.And looking at Kobe's meaning, and that sentence, it's all about wanting Tang Qian to temporarily provoke the Lakers' offense.

At least one of them.

This, isn't this difficult for the strong?You must know that the current him has been weakened by 25% of his competitive state by the "inner demon".

On the defensive end, he turned on "Demigod Descending to Earth" and temporarily entered "Defensive The.Zone", which is negligible, and the problem is not too big.But on the offensive end, he has nothing to do.

This is a state that has been weakened by 25%, which is not a very strong offensive state.

All of a sudden, Tang Qian felt even less confident.

This is not a lie. The Spurs' defense, especially the low-post defense, has always been the best in the league. Since Popovich coached, the inside line has been their strong defense area.Therefore, even O'Neal back then, don't want to get too much favor when playing with the Spurs.Therefore, outside players playing against the Spurs will be more popular.

"Hot, do you know why I didn't look for Paul?" Kobe said when he saw Tang Qian hesitated.

Tang Qian shook his head. After all, the pressure was so great that he didn't have the confidence to bear it.

This is not a question of courage, it is tantamount to asking you to compete with others' strongest in your weakest area. If you are still confident, then there is a problem.Well, even if it is really possible to achieve self-confidence, what will be the result?What about the ending?This is not something that can be solved with confidence and courage, right?
Now let Tang Qian go up to do the main attack point inside, and nine out of ten he will be so defended that he can't take care of himself.

Tang Qian is not without this self-knowledge.

"Because now, a miracle is needed." Kobe's words did not seem to be joking at all: "I think you are more suitable for the word miracle than Paul."

When the timeout was over and the Lakers played again, Kobe patted Tang Qian on the shoulder, and then went to the backcourt to get the ball, but on the 24th, Tang Qian still felt "dizzy".

Miracle?I?attack?May I?
In fact, he didn't know that there was no way for Kobe to do this. No matter how strong a person is, even if he scored 50 or even 60 points, it would be very difficult to win the playoffs.Especially if the opponent is the San Antonio Spurs, who are good at team offense and defense, that's even more so.You must know that the playoffs scored a record 63 points, but did not win!The important thing is not to win, okay?

This is the case with Jordan. Even if Kobe scored 60 points, the Lakers would still not be able to win.

This situation has become obvious until now. This Spurs team can't handle it alone.

What's more, the state was consumed too much in the front, and it was difficult for Kobe to guarantee the best offensive efficiency at the last moment. Therefore, letting other players stand up and destroy the perfect team defense of the Spurs is the most important thing.Otherwise, even if Kobe played hard on his own, Leonard, the main attacker, would have little effect on the overall defense of the Spurs.

As for the two to break the game, the best situation is that the inside and outside blossom, and the inside and outside echo.

This has been tried and tested repeatedly in NBA history.

Kobe missed the shot, which is normal. No one can really keep a 100% hit rate. In fact, in the playoffs, as an outside player, it is an extravagant hope to get a 50% hit rate.Especially Kobe's combination of sudden shots.The proportion of direct attacks at the basket is not as good as that of breakthrough-oriented players, so the shooting rate is not as good as the former, which is normal.In fact, looking at it carefully, except for this round, Kobe's shooting percentage is very scary. Unfortunately, Nash was strongly targeted in this round of the series. The Spurs also have a super perimeter defensive player Leonard. It has slipped quite a bit.

Otherwise, playing the super peak Kobe without the ball, the efficiency will break through the sky.

This has been proven again in this year's playoffs.

But right now, Kobe alone is not enough, and another person needs to stand up.

Kobe's choice was none other than No. 29, center Tang Qian.

"Rebound!!!"

The ball was jumped high by Tang Qian, and he took it down, and then he took off on the spot, and he was about to attack again.

but……

"Oh~ What a pity~ Our Dongfang Hot offensive ability still needs to be honed~" The Spurs' on-site commentator couldn't help but joked.Because of the ball, Duncan of the Spurs interfered, and he shot a bridge directly without touching the basket.

hateful!Tang Qian cursed secretly in his heart, turned around and quickly returned to defense.

Not long after, he received another pass from Kobe. He wanted to jump up and hit hard inside, but... Duncan of the Spurs gave him a risk.Clean, crisp, so you can not find a trace of foul play.

"Hot, I admire your defensive end and rebounding, but what about offense~" After Duncan blocked the ball, he said with a dumbfounded smile on his face: "You are still a lot worse."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Tang Qian was a little annoyed, but what can he do?He really can't complete the inside offense now, nor can he break through the Spurs' low defense.Roaring and venting, sometimes, don't bring anything surreal, like now.

Seeing that Tang Qian didn't score in two hits, Kobe was also a little anxious. Although it's only the second quarter, the Lakers can't afford to lose. He started to hit a few more singles on the next ball, but the hit rate was only It can be said that it is okay, and it has never broken through 2%.This is already a failing singles shooting percentage this season.Because on the 50th of this season, the singles hit rate in the regular season exceeded 24%, reaching more than 5%.In other words, if Kobe's singles combined shooting percentage does not exceed 5% this season, he is not performing properly.

What's more, he has been trying to improve his offensive state.

This further shows that Leonard is strong defensively. After all, the No. 2 of the Spurs has also entered the "Comprehensive The.Zone". This improvement in status is enough to show that his future potential is extraordinary.

A hit rate of less than 50% in singles is already against the sky, but it is still a bit insufficient for the game at this moment.

That's why Kobe turned his idea on Tang Qian, hoping that the inside players could hit a higher shooting percentage, but the situation seemed a little too optimistic.The Spurs' low-post defense is still so tight that they will never let anyone score easily.

After Duang~ scored several goals, Kobe made 2 irons in a row, and the Spurs quickly seized the opportunity to play a defensive counterattack.

Swipe ~ With the help of a cover, Leonard made a mid-range shot.

Leonard's mid-range has been fully developed this season. Although there are not many appearances of behind-the-back and emergency stops and strong shots, he has reached a very stable level in the open mid-range and the mid-range after the screen. superior.

In the regular season, the long-distance basket shooting rate reached a sky-high 48.7%!The playoffs also reached a stable 48%! ! !

Nowitzki has not achieved this shooting percentage in several seasons.Of course, the mid-range lethality and difficulty of the two are different. This is like comparing an open shooter with an outside star, and the comparability is not high.For the former, 3% of the three-pointers are normal, but for the latter, more than 4% is enough.Because you want the former to play the main offense, it is estimated that 3% of the 2-pointers will not be able to shoot.And NBA games, basically from a high probability point of view, the easy.ball of a game is limited, especially in the playoffs.Now is not the era of all-out attack a few years later. The faster the pace, the more easy.balls and more offensive and defensive transitions. Therefore, the best way is to share the easy.balls with role players, and the main players will play hard balls and attack balls. No ball of chance.

At least in the 90s - 2010, it was like this.

To give a simple example, why do some stars have a strong sense of presence after watching a game, but they only score 30 points in the end.And some stars don't feel that there are too many bright spots. At the last look at the statistics, there are actually 30 points.

This is the reason.

In short, the sense of existence of easy.ball is far inferior to that of attacking and non-opportunity balls. In fact, if you watch the ball for a long time, you will at least have a vague feeling.Therefore, using open shots and screens to defend out-of-position shots, and comparing shooting percentages with tough players is definitely the behavior of super blind and fake fans.

The difficulty of defense is very different from the difficulty of offense. What is there to compare?
You say it's a question of basketball IQ?Please, the easy.balls in a game are limited. You are a star player and you throw all the easy.balls. Do you want role players to attack and play non-opportunity balls?This behavior is truly selfish.

But even so, Leonard's long-range shooting percentage reached 48% in both the regular season and the playoffs this season, which is extremely scary.Basically, it will be there if you let it go.And what is blinding is that just last season, his shooting percentage from 10-16 feet in the playoffs could reach 4%, and 16-23 feet, which is mid-to-long-range shooting, only made more than 2% of his shots. Rate.The improvement in one season is astonishing enough.

It is also the reason why Leonard is expected to become a new generation of offensive and defensive super giants in the future.

After all, in the future, integrating offense and defense is already a luxury.Most stars can only take into account both offense and defense.So Leonard, he's a rare outlier.His growth rate and growth potential are also a key to Popovich's decision to support and support him.

Tang Qian was anxious when he saw this, but the overall defensive enthusiasm of the Lakers is gone now, and because Kobe has controlled an excessive number of shots and the ball since the second quarter, this makes most Lakers players on the offensive end. It was a back-and-forth run, and I didn't even touch the edge of the basketball.Concentration and devotion to the game have declined, which is a matter of course.

Originally lagging behind by a big score of 0-3, he was a little unwilling to fight, and now he basically can't touch the basketball, which leads to a further decline in defensive enthusiasm.It would be strange if Tang Qian could handle this situation by himself.

Even if you are playing a 2K game, if your teammates are pig teammates and the defense is completely weak, then even if you score 100 points in a game, you will eventually lose.

Only some brainless novels might feel that the protagonist can attack and defend alone, and he can defy the sky by himself.

Well, again, basketball is essentially a team sport.

It was never a solo sport.

In this way, the Lakers want to make a comeback, no, even if they only want to win tonight's game, that is an extravagant hope.

Difficult. Difficult.

Difficult!
No, myself, I must do something!Otherwise, this year's playoffs will really be over!
how to do? ? ?what to do? ? ?do not care! ! !Let's attack first! ! !
If you don't go in, you will kill the Spurs' inside line!Make some changes too! ! !

Thinking of this, Tang Qian realized his responsibility again. He is also a member of the Lakers, and he is also a star of the Lakers!How can it be that at a critical moment, the offensive end can't play a role at all? ? ?

Me, I am also an All-Star player with one defense + DOPY this season.

Do you really not treat me like a dish? ? ?

Kobe Bryant misses a shot after making one, bouncing high in the paint for the Spurs, waiting for someone to grab it.

who?Of course it is me!It's me Tang Qian! ! !
Besides me, who else on the Lakers can do it? ? ?
This time is my performance time! ! !

Seeing that No. 29 of the Lakers wanted to squeeze in to grab the rebound, the inside players of the Spurs immediately started to get stuck, preventing Tang Qian from easily getting into the rebound position.After all, they have already learned a lot about this Easterner's rebounding skills, which is really too good.It is basically impossible for a person to resist.So now for the Spurs, one person is mainly responsible for blocking No. 29, and the other person goes to grab rebounds.

The person standing in front of Tang Qian now is the Brazilian Thiago Splitter. He is 211cm tall, but his tonnage is not enough, only about 250 pounds, about ten pounds lighter than Tang Qian.In addition, his athletic ability and mobility are not in the same order as Tang Qian. If it is a one-on-one grab, it can only be said that Tang Qian will make him forget how to write the word rebound.

Whether it's defensive rebounds or offensive rebounds.

However, the Brazilian is also very self-aware, so it is simply a top man and a position. The things he is doing now are similar to what Tang Qian's partner of the Lakers did when Thackeray played.It belongs to sacrifice and meat shield completely.

But he was quickly blocked by Tang Qian, and instead he was firmly pressed behind him.

But this victory is not worth Tang Qian's blink of an eye. His goal is not to destroy Thiago Splitter's top man. Grabbing this offensive rebound is what he really wants. Things to do.

Therefore, he now has to face off with Tim Duncan, No. 21 of the Spurs in front of him.

Duncan has the talent of "fixed rebounding", that is, no matter how strong the opponent's rebounding ability is, they can grab almost the same number of rebounds per game.This talent has also allowed Duncan to never suffer from rebounds in so many years of inside confrontation.Even if it's against all kinds of super insiders, that's the same, Rodman never took advantage of him.

But Tang Qian has now blessed the demigod, and his rebounding can be improved again. Even if his competitive state is weakened by 25%, he will not be afraid of the 38-year-old Duncan's "rebounding talent".Duncan is really stable on rebounds. At the age of 39, he actually has 11+ rebounds in the playoffs. This seems to be a monster-like stability.

Duncan was not too surprised to see that it was the top man who broke through Thiago. The physical condition and rebounding ability of the two are too far apart, so it is better to be normal.But don't think I'm that easy to deal with.

Duncan actually exploded on the rebounding end, and immediately withstood Tang Qian, preventing the latter from entering the rebounding position he had already occupied.And because it is a defensive rebound, the defensive end is born to occupy the right time and place. In addition, Duncan's "fixed rebound" talent is enough to resist the "demigod" weakened by 25% by the "inner demon".

What should we do at this time?Tang Qian has no plans to give up. The rebounding end is also his strong field, isn't it?

Duncan?so what? ? ?This rebound is also mine! ! !I want to fix you too! ! !
The moment the rebound fell, Duncan felt a blur in front of him, but when he looked again, it was a purple-gold number 29 standing in front of him!He actually broke his card slot again?Also successfully reversed the card position? ? ?This guy……

Tang Qian jumped high and grabbed the defensive rebound. He felt that he still had strength in the air, so he simply...

He took the basketball in his hand and smashed it into the Spurs' basket with one hand.

boom!
The Lakers scored 2 points!
This guy actually rebounded into "The.Zone"?Is his blue-collar talent really that good?

He won't really be the next blue-collar superstar, will he? ? ?

Duncan didn't know, this was still the "demon" weakening the competitive state by 25%. If not, the ability of "demigod descending to earth" alone would be enough for Tang Qian to ignore the former's "fixed rebound" talent.In this way, the Spurs still took advantage of it.

On the offensive end, the Spurs also missed shots. Well, it's not that the Lakers' defense is so good, it's just that they simply missed shots.

To put it bluntly, it is impossible for every ball to go in when it comes out, so it flies.

This is just a matter of pure probability, and has nothing to do with the Lakers' defense.

Tang Qian grabbed the rebound and defended the rebound. As long as it fell within his effective contention range, he basically didn't miss it.It doesn't help whoever comes.

What's more, his "defense and rebounding" have entered "The.Zone" now, and the negative impact of "inner demon" basically can't affect these two aspects.So, this is really not a lie.Even if Chamberlain and Russell are here in person now, and they want to compete with Tang Qian for defensive rebounds, that would be enough.

Unless they're a team and also defensive rebounding that's pretty much the case.

The Spurs don't have this idea either. If they lose the low defensive rebounds, they will lose them. They just need to do their own defensive rebounds.With the current combat effectiveness of the Lakers, the overall threat is too small.

The basketball was still given to Kobe. Kobe made a breakthrough, made an emergency stop and retreated to shoot. After tricking Leonard's defensive center of gravity, he stepped on the ground with his back foot and broke through the latter with a stride.In front of Kobe this season, he was only able to deceive the defensive center of gravity by fake moves instead of completely taking off. The Spurs' three-year rookie is also the first one so far.

It is conceivable to what extent this Leonard will grow after playing the Lakers this season.

Maybe it will be stronger than the future defense of the original time and space.

He is now like a sponge, frantically absorbing the opponent's attack experience, and then constantly improving and evolving himself.

He has the potential to become a super giant in the future.

And it is a super giant with both offense and defense.

But the Spurs are very experienced in this game. Duncan and Kobe have played too many playoff games. They have fought from youth to old age, and they are still fighting. During this process, some of the offensive methods and habits of each other, In general, I still touched a lot.So Duncan decisively adopted the defensive method of encircling the penalty area. The moment Kobe entered the low post, the Spurs immediately surrounded three people.This made No. 3's shot suddenly difficult.

Kobe has an old personality problem, which was used by Duncan, that is, once his teammates are not able to live up to their strengths, No. 24 will definitely not choose to pass the ball.Even if a teammate is open, he will not pass.

It's either that he doesn't have that ability, or he simply doesn't have that meaning. The only thing in his eyes is the basket.

"Kobe shoots ~ misses ~ are the Lakers ready to cry and leave the AT&T Center Arena?" the Spurs' on-site commentator said, which caused a lot of responses and laughter from the scene.

This is the away game, not surprising at all, in fact without these things, that would be strange.

"Keep an eye on No. 29! He's in!" Parker from the outside line immediately reminded after seeing it, but it was still too late. Tang Qian took advantage of the three Spurs team to double-team Kobe Bryant's shot this time, took advantage of the void, and took a shot. Just caught the ball.This is another special skill of Kobe, which is called "help board".This was originally a term invented by a sunspot, but later the NBA really produced statistics in this regard.

According to statistics, the league's "assist rate" is 25%, and Kobe's is 33%, and when the attack is within the middle distance, Kobe's assist rate soars to 52%! ! !what does that mean? ? ?It means that the Lakers have a great chance to have another 24 seconds to organize an offense or a direct 2 offenses! ! !And 34% of the "help boards" became the scoring points! ! !
Dig a little deeper, and 15% of them will immediately be converted into direct dunks or putbacks, which are far beyond the league.

Do you think this data is "black"?In fact, on the contrary, the stronger the offensive ability and the ability to attract defensive players, the more capable they will be to help the board!For example, a record that everyone is not clear about, who has averaged the most assists per game in the past 1996 years from 2017 to 20?Not Kobe, but the famous Michael Jordan, averaging 3.3 times per game.

But Jordan's assist rate is still not as good as Kobe's.

This is because the black mamba is the kind of person who plays extremely unreasonable.

And the more this is the case, the easier it is for the opponent's defensive formation to be torn and attracted, resulting in an empty defense for inside players.

But the premise is that you must have sufficient personal ability, otherwise the ghost will not bother to talk to you.

So "supporting the board" is not something to be ashamed of at all. Look at these few people, they are all recognized as the kings in the league.Don't you even pay attention to God Qiao?He is the king of assists per game.Kobe is the king of assists per game.

If it is the first and second quartiles, this is also in the same line.

Tang Qian was about to make a direct shot just like the previous one. At this time, Duncan's role was reflected. He used his experience and his natural sense of defensive position and space at the basket, which was superior to others. The moment Tang Qian wanted to make a shot , He suddenly stood in front of No. 29 of the Lakers.This made Tang Qian have to stop direct attacks, and lost a good opportunity to use Kobe's missed shots to "score with a rebound".

"In this case, one time is enough, don't think too much about doing it again." Duncan saw that Tang Qian failed to make a tip-up, and quickly stepped closer. This is the second attack at the basket of No. 29. .

Pass the ball?Kobe had just landed and was still in the crowd. He couldn't get out of position for a while and passed it to the others?

Just their mentality and energy now?Therefore, there is no choice but to come by yourself.

And if he wants to score under Duncan's defense, the only thing Tang Qian can rely on now is to attack hard at the basket.

Relying on his physical hardware and physical fitness, he forcibly broke old Duncan's defense, and then scored.

Duncan also seemed to see what Tang Qian meant, and he immediately said while defending:
"Hey~ come on~ hot~ beat me~ the future is yours~"
