Chapter 418: New Season, New Skills
After working on the bench for a long time, Anthony finally got some offensive opportunity when Linson got out of the field. Westbrook played at the offensive end tonight, and first helped Anthony to play the ball. George was in good shape in the middle, and now Anthony is Anthony. He has never played with the ball.
On this side, Linson and Oladipo's offense were handed over to Gordon and Gallinari, but tonight the basket did not foul against Oladipo, nor did they foul against Gallinari. Both of them were new players. Instead, they had no problems with the basket. At the beginning, they received a chasing three-pointer from Gallinari, or a single-block three-pointer from Oladipo.
Such three-pointers are considered a relatively difficult way to attack. Chasing one is to catch the ball and stop when running forward quickly, while single blocks are to take the ball around the pick-and-roll quickly. However, you can get into such three-pointers, but Eric Gordon, who has played many games in this stadium, had problems with his feel.
Several times he was used to, and his usual shooting methods ended up in a blacksmith, but there was no way. Everyone knew that Gordon had a bit of a nerve-wracking breath. Although his three-pointers were trustworthy in many cases, his number of misalignments and extraordinary times were much more than many normal three-point shooters. Since you want to see Gordon shoot in the Eastern Conference Finals, you must tolerate that he can only see his breakthrough in many cases in the finals.
At this time, Westbrook finally started their efforts. CJ Myers went up to defend Westbrook, Gordon missed a three-pointer, and Adams stopped Turner and Garlinari for the frontcourt board position, and was worthy of being the first card king in the league.
This is also one of the Thunder's tactics. After Westbrook got the rebound, he reduced the time it took for a pass. At the same time, such a long-distance raid also gave a stronger impact to a reckless man like Westbrook. CJ Myers felt that he had no idea where to start. He could not tell at all when he would stand in front of Westbrook.
After rushing to the three-point line, the higher CJ Myers could only watch Westbrook easily put the ball in without any pressure. At 198cm, he was directly pushed open in the air by Westbrook at 191cm. Westbrook's bounce explosive power was too strong. At this moment, he rose directly like a spiral plane taking off in a straight line.
"Russell! This is Russell!" Bill Walton still likes Russell very much. With the character of last year's "city hero" that Westbrook has more fans across the United States.
The boss showed his power, and the Thunder were naturally united. Before the end of the midfield, he also raised the score to a controllable score with Westbrook's rage, 4 points, 54:58.
Both sides can be said to be in the running-in period, and the running-in is not only offense, but also defense. Many times, both sides have no rules and no complexity in their cooperation, because the chemical reaction between old players and new players is still running-in, and the stars have strong dominant abilities in such a game.
In this game just now, Lin Sen once again discovered his shortcomings. As he received more and more attention, the interference on the offensive end was more and more. The hooking skills from Lopez have gradually been used less and less in Lin Sen's offense. Even Lopez himself didn't play hooking and started running outside to practice three-pointers. What else could Lin Sen do? Even if he combined his dream footsteps, this move is not very good now. The attack distance is too close, and Lin Sen never uses too much physical strength to fight on the offensive end.
Even the mid-range shot of Ilgoskas in the pick-and-roll has now been upgraded to Admiral, and Lin Sen should upgrade his hook. Two golden skills and one purple skill, okay! Let yourself bleed once today!
If you ask who is the strongest center in history, there may be many questions.
Some people may say that it is O'Neal, the closest to modern basketball's three consecutive championships, and in those years, O'Neal played as dominant as Jordan.
Some people may say that it is Russell, known as the Lord of the Rings. He has two hands that are not satisfied with his championship ring. It is probably an unprecedented eight consecutive championships for no one. The defensive end is like the team's most resolute rock.
Some people would say that it was Chamberlain, who scored 100 points in a single game, averaged 5020 per game, giving him a ball almost equals an assist, leading the physical talent and offensive skills of all players of the same era. Because of his existence, the rules of the NBA have been modified several times.
Or Olajuwon, the only center forward who was the best defensive player in the MVP regular season in the finals of the same year, is the most offensive and defensive bug.
Among these people, Jabbar is also a name that he can't get around anyway. In fact, in the one or two years of his career, he is not as good as Olajuwon and O'Neal. He is said to have the number of championships and his scoring ability, but he is still a candidate for the number of centers.
The top scorer in history, the most regular season MVPs in history, the third most rebounds, and the most extremely stable career as ever. He has performed all day for 20 years. He has never scored 20 points per game in the last three consecutive games in his career. He still averaged 23.6 points per game when he was 39 years old. The center relies heavily on physical fitness, so most centers will slowly begin to decline after the age of 31-32.
The biggest reason why Jabbar can still maintain such a strong attack ability at this time is his hook, which is his signature, which is the inside sign technology, and it is not easy to play. However, he is called Tian Gout, and his hook is indeed very lethal.
The height of the attack, the distance of the attack, and the arc of the attack are definitely the best in history, no one, so relatively speaking, this skill is also very expensive, a golden skill package, as famous as Olajuwon's unique tricks and fantasy footsteps.
