Chapter 358 Unsolvable Player
There are many kinds of talents in basketball players, including the most basic height, wingspan, jumping, age, etc., of course, there are also invisible talents, such as basketball IQ, learning ability, ability to resist pressure, big heart, etc.Among them, what is clearly visible is the basic talent, which is commonly known as the talent visible to the naked eye.
Durant's basic talent is far beyond comparison.His registered height is only 205 cm, but various photos can confirm that he is not lower than the center. It is generally believed that his height is 211 cm. The reason why he only reported 205 cm is probably because he does not want to play inside.
Among the active players, players of the same height as Durant are not as good as him in the perimeter, and his perimeter skills are not as good as him, so playing anyone is a misplacement.Because of this, it can be very difficult to defend him.
George's height of 206 cm is also shorter than Durant's, and his wingspan is not as good as Durant's, so it is difficult to form restrictions on the defensive end.
Durant singled George with his back, turned around and pulled up without any footsteps, and made a mid-range shot with no solution.
The shooting point of basketball is extremely high, unless it is a jumper with McGee's height and wingspan, he will have a chance to block Durant's shot.This is very difficult, almost no one in the entire league can do it.
Hollow into the net!
4-4!
Durant is more peaceful than Westbrook. He likes to bury any emotions in his heart. He didn't celebrate and turned around to retreat.
Xu Tian received the serve, dribbled the ball to the front court, and continued to organize the attack at the top of the arc.
Westbrook is responsible for defending Xu Tian, with a very low center of gravity, always paying attention to Xu Tian's right hand when dribbling.
Xu Tian has a strong shooting ability and needs close defense, but he is also good at using rhythm changes to break through, so it is really difficult to deal with it in advance.
Facing Durant's defense, George went around two screens to find a moderate offensive space.As soon as he ran out of the open space, he received a pass from Xu Tian.
George's usual training has added catch and shoot events, so he doesn't need to make any adjustments. He seizes the opportunity and shoots directly from the open.
The basketball draws a beautiful curve, hits the rebound, and bounces into the net!
The angle of the ball was just right, obviously, he was aiming at the board!
7-4!
Barkley said: "Xu has already got three assists in two and a half minutes of playing, so, is the theme of tonight assists?"
Kenny Smith said: "If I were Billy Donovan, I would strengthen the defensive strength of Xu Tian's teammates so that he could not easily play the ball, otherwise opportunities would be too easy to find. In this case, Xu's physical strength will A lot of reservations, if it really comes to the fourth quarter, it will kill the Quartet again, and no one can stand it."
Barkley said: "Even if you consume Xu now, he can find a way to attack. If you want to defend him, in addition to doing your best, you must also pray to God so that his touch will be slightly deviated. Otherwise, no one can completely Restrain him."
"The Thunder also have unsolvable offensive points," Kenny Smith advises the Thunder on the weak side, "Kevin Durant has the height as much as an inside player, and also has a high release point and a soft touch. It’s absolutely possible to play against Xu Tian. Really, if I were the Thunder coach, I would give him unlimited shooting rights instead of handing the ball to Russell Westbrook.”
Barkley said with a smile: "Your words are really not easy to answer."
Kenny Smith laughed too.
After Billy Donovan came to the Thunder, he greatly enhanced Westbrook's tactical status and increased Durant's off-the-ball offense.This is one of the contradictions between Durant and Billy Donovan. Although it has not been shown, it has already been revealed.
Kobe is a veteran who has been in the league for many years. In order to disintegrate his opponents, he has used various tactics that affect the psychology of opponent players.Before the start of the game, he proposed to double-team Durant, weaken the defense against Westbrook, and let the players whose contracts are about to expire unconsciously feel the change in the status of the team, so as to gain an advantage through psychological warfare.
In the arena, winners and losers are always the winners, as long as the methods are not particularly bad, they can be accepted.What's more, it's no problem just to double-team.
The Lakers have four players with a height of about two meters. They have excellent mobility, and it is very easy to rotate positions and assist in double-teaming.
Westbrook encountered Xu Tian's close defense and couldn't start, let alone speed up the breakthrough.Nearly ten seconds of offensive time was wasted at the top of the arc before it was passed to Durant.
Kobe reacted quickly, immediately put down Dion Waiters, and George made a strong flank, blocking Durant's breakthrough route, forcing him to choose to pass or shoot.
Durant is very powerful, but he couldn't stand the combined attack of Kobe and George, two powerful players. Not only did he not find a chance to make a move, but he almost made a mistake.
Dion Waiters is 193 cm tall and weighs 95 kg. He entered the Cavaliers with the fourth overall pick in 2012. The template is Wade of the Heat.He was very angry and dissatisfied with the Cavaliers boss Irving at the time. The two had conflicts, but the details were not exposed.
After the Thunder traded for Dion Waiters, his temper has calmed down a lot, but his nature is still difficult to change.Seeing that there is not much time left in the attack, he shouted anxiously to attract Durant's attention.
Durant heard the voice of Dion Waiters, deliberately ignored it, ignored the two people in front of him in a fit of anger, pulled up directly, and shot a difficult three-pointer.
Durant's shot point was too high, and Kobe and George didn't touch it. Although there was defense, the effect was not great.
Basketball hollow into the net!
7-7!
The Thunder fans were ignorant of everything. Seeing Durant's excellent performance, they opened their voices and shouted for him.
Westbrook is a very good man to his brother. He ran over quickly and celebrated with high-fives with Durant who scored a difficult three-pointer.
Durant and Westbrook were elected to the Thunder one after another, and they played for the team only one year apart. Relatively speaking, they belonged to teammates who have been partners for a long time and have a deep friendship.Even if it was slightly targeted by the Lakers, it still did not easily shake.
Xu Tian found an opportunity while walking, and crossed half court with a long pass to Kobe, completing the connection again.
Kobe shook Adams under the basket, still wanting to repeat the same trick.This time, Adams tried to block the shot and hit Bryant's arm with his right hand, drawing a defensive foul.
The basketball bounced a few times on the hoop and then fell into the net!
Two points are valid, and a penalty will be added!
Billy Donovan called a timeout, glanced at the score and time above the arena, walked back to the dugout, took the tactical board from the assistant coach, and waited for the players to gather.
At 4 minutes and 39 seconds into the first quarter, Xu Tian had already received four assists, and by virtue of his organizational skills, the Thunder's defense was riddled with holes.
There was no problem with the Lakers' opening tactics, so Scott didn't make any adjustments. He simply said a few words about the importance of defensive attitude, and then ended the arrangement and let the players adjust themselves.
Billy Donovan made a personnel rotation, replacing Dion Waiters, who missed Kobe twice on the defensive end, and put on Andre Robertson, who was better defensively.
