Build a Dream Dynasty - Chapter 956
Curry made his debut, but Donovan did not replace Kanter in time, and he still used the lineup on the field to challenge. , Olynyk, who was playing, stretched out his arms and hugged his head on the sidelines.
When the Nets go all out, it is easy for fans to have the illusion that players with poor switching ability are no longer worthy of staying in this league. Look at the top teams today, the Clippers, the Cavaliers, and the Bucks. They can all form a very strong defensive lineup, all of which are forced by the Nets!
And when the Thunder chose to use double teams to limit Curry, he could also help Ilyasova hit a three-pointer through his own pass. Donovan had to call a timeout and replace Kanter. And Curry also showed a smile on the bench. Compared with the beginning of the season, the current team has indeed improved a lot. The joining of Ilyasova and Teodosic has indeed improved the team’s strength, and the basketball team has improved a lot. The Nets did not pay too much to complete the lineup upgrade.
The point difference opened in just two minutes, and Donovan had no choice but to continue to deal with the Nets through dead grass. However, when the referee’s scale was loosened, Westbrook’s strong thrusts were repeatedly blocked. Porzingis’s wingspan and mobility were a nightmare for Westbrook. face. Although his continuous high-intensity impact can create some murderous intentions, compared to the Nets’ more stable offensive efficiency, his output can only be said to be a drop in the bucket.
Sora has a physical talent, but he has not refined his technique for many years, and still relies on his body to play. When he encounters a relatively restrained style of play, he will be helpless. At the moment, Westbrook is still in his physical state, and he can still perform some performances with domineering and unparalleled breakthroughs, but if he continues to lose his talent, within two years, he will definitely go downhill, and this kind of player with insufficient technical maturity. , once it starts to go downhill, it can’t be pulled back.
No one on the Thunder team has seen these issues yet. But for now, the team still has to continue to build a lineup around Westbrook. As a result, his physical condition is not bad, and he can support the team’s existing style of play. Second, Westbrook’s commercial value is high enough, and the team points to him to sell tickets. After all, the team owner pays more attention to profit than establishment.
This game was another typical “Westbrook-style” game. In the whole game, Westbrook made 9 of 28 shots, 12 of 14 free throws, and scored 33 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Opposite Curry’s 29 points and 8 assists, but unfortunately, his teammates did not perform well, “drag” Westbrook, the Thunder trailed by 23 points in the third quarter, but caught up in the fourth quarter, once the point difference It was reduced to 10 points, but it was a pity that Leonard hit consecutive singles at the critical moment, and Porzingis hit a key tip-up to help the Nets survive the Thunder’s counterattack. In the end, Westbrook, who was helpless, was unable to lead the team to victory. Can use the charge again and again to win respect for his team.
Looking at the data may really be able to draw a similar conclusion, or just watching the highlights, and the people who edited them can lead the rhythm. Only those who watched the game know how big the gap between Curry and Westbrook’s ability to lead the team is. Westbrook did manage to carry the Thunder on his shoulders, but his possession of the ball really didn’t help the team, and after Curry came on stage, the impact on the Nets’ offense was visible to the naked eye. .
At this stage, it is also difficult to judge the pros and cons of this game for Westbrook to compete for MVP. At least he is better than Curry in terms of statistics. As for the real performance, it is actually easy to be misled by the media’s spring and autumn brushwork. However, this season, it does not affect the Nets’ gains and losses. Curry definitely has no hope of impacting MVP, and Leonard’s goal this season is only for a while. Judging from his data and the fact that the Nets’ record has declined this season, the impact of MVP is obviously slightly worse. .
For the Nets, the only goal this season is the championship. Due to injuries, the team missed three consecutive championships. The standard of the four-year triple crown makes the “Nets Dynasty” compared to the Celtics’ 8 consecutive championships in history. The championship, the “showtime” of the Lakers, the Bull Dynasty, and the only three consecutive championships of the Lakers in the new century are a bit unconvincing, but what if it is four championships in five years? There shouldn’t be too much controversy! And the championship that was lost in the middle was entirely due to injuries, which should be understandable.
. . . . . .
The Wizards in the middle of the season are basically not the same team as the Wizards at the beginning of the season. The team’s boss, Wall, usually grows and gains weight in the offseason, and then starts to practice with games from the preseason, and loses weight by the way. The first 20 games, for the Wizards, were also given to the core of the team. Not playing hard in the offseason is the reason why Wall has always been average in entry over the years, especially the reason why he has never been able to practice outside shooting. This definitely needs to be cultivated.
Compared with Westbrook, Wall, who is also physically strong, is inferior in personal offense and passing the ball to the inside line~www.mtlnovel.com~ However, his overall situation is better. Compared with Westbrook, he is better at playing inside lines. With the ball, Wall is more likely to activate wing players, and his investment on the defensive end is also much stronger than Westbrook’s. Wall, who entered the middle of the season, actually feels a bit “James on the point guard”.
However, the Wizards have successively lost Nene and Okafor in the past two years. Mahinmi, who was introduced with a high salary, is not useful, and has a great impact on the team. Porter also has a significant decline in efficiency after signing a fat contract. , Compared with the efficiency of the best 3d in the previous two seasons, it has degenerated into an ordinary player, and the contract is also a clear premium. A team, if there is no premium contract, will appear relatively mediocre as a whole, and if there is a premium contract dragging down the team in this case, the negative impact will be great. This is the case with the Wizards. An important reason for the serious decline in the team’s record this season.
Porzingis beat Mahinmi with a jump ball, Curry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to Teodosic, then ran to the right bottom corner.
Curry is a selfless person who is willing to sacrifice the ball for the team. It doesn’t matter if he stands in the bottom corner to attract defense as an MVP positional battle. The key is to help Leonard attract firepower and have a better attacking environment.
Teodosic and Porzingis broke through Wall’s defense after completing the fake pick-and-roll cooperation, changed direction and jumped from the right to get rid of Mahinmi’s defense, attracted Porter to make up defense, and then made a fake pass after the jump. The ball was assigned to Leonard, who was left unattended and shot easily and made a solid three-pointer.
With Curry restraining the opponent’s release, Leonard’s goal of scoring is also a lot easier.
