Rick Carlisle is worthy of being a veteran who has been in the league for many years. His eyes are very vicious and he can see the shortcomings of Kawhi Leonard at a glance.

Unlike Kevin Durant, LeBron James and other top scorers, Kawhi Leonard was based on defense when he first entered the league.

In other words, Kawhi Leonard was an offensive black hole at the beginning. Even if he could score, he was a catch-and-shoot type, and his offensive ability with the ball was almost non-existent.

In the past few years, although he has become more versatile and his offensive capabilities have also improved significantly, his offensive ability with the ball is still poor. Some things really can only rely on talent.

"But, Jiang, Kawhi Leonard has no blind spots on the defensive end. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most defensive small forward I have ever seen. This is a big deal for you." Challenge, I know you are very good, but facing Kawhi Leonard will definitely be your biggest challenge as a professional player so far."

Rick Carlisle knew that Jiang Hao had played against Kevin Durant and LeBron James last season, and he had never been at a disadvantage.

However, as he said, Kawhi Leonard is different from the two of them. Kawhi Leonard with excellent defense will bring a huge test to the Bayonet's offense.

"Don't worry, I know what I know"

Jiang Hao nodded. He agreed with Rick Carlisle's point of view, but he also knew very well that even if Kawhi Leonard's defensive ability is very strong, that would not be a reason for him not to take action.

"The Toronto Raptors are very strong inside, especially Marc Gasol. I think he is an all-around guy who can attack, defend, and organize and support. Maybe for Marc Gasol, The only drawback is that he has not been better integrated into the Toronto Raptors system until now."

Compared with other aspects of the Toronto Raptors, in fact, Jiang Hao is very worried about the threat posed by their inside line.

He is not denying DeAndre Jordan's ability, but he was deeply impressed by the Toronto Raptors' Marc Gasol by watching game videos.

"I've taken that into consideration, I mean, using strengths and avoiding weaknesses, DeAndre Jordan may have to shoulder more defensive pressure and rebounding, but other than that, I think we focus our offense on the front line, which is to say, You and Carmelo Anthony will be the axis of our offense. With Carmelo Anthony’s physical advantage, even if it is a proper tilt to the inside, we can accept it.”

“That’s all it can do”

Jiang Hao nodded. Since Rick Carlisle had already made a plan, he chose to trust Rick Carlisle.

………

"Man, I think this is going to be a real test for you, and everyone is going to be paying special attention to the matchup between you and Kawhi Leonard, and it's undeniable that the matchup between you and Kawhi Leonard A head-on collision between the two of you is inevitable, and the collision between the two of you will also have a great impact on the situation of the entire series."

"I don't know if anyone has given you some advice before this, but my advice is you have to carry the whole team on your shoulders, you have to be selfish, yes, selfish, stay confident, Why pass the ball when you can take a shot to end the offense?"

Jiang Hao received a text message from Black Mamba Kobe Bryant.

In the text message, the Black Mamba gave Jiang Hao a lot of advice about the upcoming finals series.

What I have to admit is that although the Black Mamba has retired for a long time, his playing style has not changed at all.

From the Black Mamba's remarks, Jiang Hao can draw a conclusion, that is, Kobe hopes that he will use superstar basketball to end this series.

Jiang Hao must admit that Kobe Bryant's suggestion makes sense, because the Toronto Raptors are also a team basketball team. If you compete with them in team basketball, you may not necessarily have much of an advantage.

And if you unexpectedly do the opposite, you might actually get a lot of miraculous results.

Just like the Black Mamba did against the top San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference playoffs.

Jiang Hao did not reply to the text message to express his gratitude to Kobe because he thought it was unnecessary. To be honest, they communicated frequently during this time.

If I really want to be grateful, it would be to get the championship trophy.

Of course, Jiang Hao also made an appointment with Kobe and had the opportunity to train together. He hoped that Kobe could teach him more things.

………

Two days later, the entire NBA focused its attention on the American Airlines Center Arena.

Because here, in another hour, this season's finals will officially kick off.

At the American Airlines Center Stadium, on the court, players from both teams have arrived, and everyone is trying to do the final warm-up before the game.

In such a truly strong dialogue series, the result of the first game is very important.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, no one will have any reservations about this game, and the same is obviously true for the Toronto Raptors tonight.

For the Dallas Mavericks, their excellent record in the regular season gave them the home-court advantage in the Finals series, so they will not waste this home-court advantage in any case.

"We'll see, I won't say too much"

When many media reporters on the sidelines tried to interview Bayonet, they received an immediate response from Bayonet.

However, his response was just a simple statement without any substance.

Many times, when the players from both teams returned to the locker room and prepared for the final appearance ceremony, the big screen in the arena also showed the statistics of the two teams' leading stars throughout the playoffs.

Bayonet: Averaged 38.6 points, 6.9 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 steals, 1.8 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers per game!

Kawhi Leonard: Averaged 32.4 points, 6.0 assists, 6.8 rebounds, 2.2 steals, 1.9 steals and 1.4 turnovers per game.

Everyone couldn't help but take a breath when they saw the playoff data of the two people.

What kind of monsters are these?

A true superstar, truly capable of both offense and defense.

Among them, Bayonet's offensive ability is slightly stronger, and Kawhi Leonard's defense is better.

When everyone saw that both players averaged only about 1.5 turnovers per game, they shook their heads with emotion.

People finally saw what a robot is? What is a bayonet?

"The two of them have one thing in common, that is, they both have no emotions. This can be seen from their names. Otherwise, how could they have such a low turnover average per game?"
