Super Heavy Artillery - v3 Chapter 698

“Super Heavy Artillery (

Westbrook’s dunk is perhaps the only action that can more easily drive the atmosphere of the scene than Anlow’s three-pointer. At least, this is the case at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. Although many people criticize this kind of play that eats the potential of the body, such an explosive goal is still loved by the fans.

Brook Lopez, who is 213cm tall, can be said to be the most successful traditional center in this league’s transformation. He already has a very good mid-range shooting ability, and the low offense is also very good. As the league gradually entered the era of faster-paced small balls, he began to actively adapt to the changes in the league, expanding his shooting range beyond the three-point line, and practicing a three-pointer that was more accurate and stable than many guards. Splitting ability. In the past few big players very embarrassing season, Lopez has always been a very sought-after fifth player.

After coming to the Bucks, Lopez was even more comfortable. The three-pointer hit rate even reached 50%. Who ever thought that this classic center that was once the most trendy could evolve over time into a new center suitable for modern basketball. This is shocking, because many players want to change but can’t change it. Howard has been practicing free throws and shooting since he was in the Lakers, and finally changed three or four teams without improvement.

In addition to the excellent offensive scoring ability, Lopez’s defense has also undergone great changes. In the beginning, Lopez’s defensive and mobile abilities were very poor due to the large body.

In the past two or three seasons, Lopez’s defensive ability has been thoroughly developed under the Bucks system. Although his rebounding statistics are not good and his impression is not good, he does a good job of limiting the opponent’s offensive efficiency. In the regular season last season, Lopez averaged 16.5 shots per game against opponents, ranking sixth in the league, six more than Antetokounmpo, who is second most in the Bucks. In the case of defensive tasks, Lopez still limits the opponent’s shooting percentage to only 42.2%, which reduces the opponent’s shooting percentage by 5.9%. You know, in the regular season last season, Embiid’s opponents all shot 47.9%, and Jokic’s opponents shot 50.1%.

A center player can limit the opponent’s field goal percentage to below 45%, which is really quite remarkable. Although the defensive efficiency achieved by Lopez was partly due to his multiple defenses against opponents’ outside shots, Lopez was also very effective in defending opponents’ two-pointers last season. . Lopez limited his opponent’s 2-point field goal percentage to only 43.6% in the regular season last season, ranking fifth among more than 200 players who averaged at least 5 two-pointers per game by all defensive opponents in the league.

Lopez’s most prominent defensive method is blocking shots, which is also the most well-known. Therefore, facing such a big player, Westbrook is indeed too tough! A deduction is the top five goals, and a deduction is the top five 囧.

Looking back, Antetokounmpo began to cooperate with Lopez on the top of the arc. The latter pulled to the top of the arc for a pick-and-roll, Antetokounmpo then screened to get rid of the defense, and then went straight to the basket. Adams and Robertson immediately doubled up. Faced with the impact of Antetokounmpo, it is difficult for Adams to keep up, so he needs more defensive power.

In the face of double-teaming, Antetokounmpo decisively chose to pass.

After Robertson followed Antetokounmpo to the basket, Lopez was emptied. This is an excellent opportunity!

Of course, generally speaking, it is not a big problem to empty the center beyond the three-point line, but it is a problem to empty a center like Lopez.

Antetokounmpo passed the ball through the penalty area to Lopez who was standing outside the right three-point line. After receiving the ball, the latter slapped the ball on the floor, then pulled it up directly and threw the ball out.

“Huh!”

The goal is scored!

As the biggest player who can shoot three-pointers, Lopez likes to score in this way.

Anlow and Westbrook looked at each other speechlessly, each shrugged, and began to enter offensive mode. In fact, they had anticipated this situation a long time ago. Donovan took this issue into consideration when he laid out his tactics. But he always believes that Antetokounmpo, who burst into the penalty area, is much more threatening than Lopez from beyond the three-point line.

From the point of view of scoring odds, this is indeed the case. Although in the current basketball game, the players’ offensive range is getting wider and wider, the proportion of points scored within the three-point line is still far more than that outside the three-point line~www.mtlnovel.com~ After all, everyone has never been exposed to basketball. On the first day, he understood that the closer to the basket, the easier it is to score.

Donovan stood on the long side with his arms folded, his face as usual. A three-pointer has little effect. But soon, Donovan had to rethink and adjust their defensive strategy.

Westbrook and An Luo made a pick-and-roll cooperation on the left side of the three-point line. When the former crossed the three-point line, the ball was thrown from Matthews’s head to An Luo, and the latter took the opportunity to move to the right. The two defenders Bledsoe and Matthews hurriedly rushed over. At this time, did An Luo stubbornly pull out, but he just flicked a shot and made a shot to attract the opponent’s defensive attention, then threw the ball with both hands to Westbrook who cut in.

At this time, there was no one in front of Westbrook. Lopez, who was originally at the basket, was brought to the free throw line by Adams, and Westbrook rushed in with an acceleration. After receiving An Luo’s pass, he didn’t dunk again, picked up with his right hand and scored two points.

Looking back, Antetokounmpo and Lopez played the same trick again. Bledsoe took the lead in launching the first round of charge. He also used Lopez to get rid of the defense and break through the Thunder’s defense. The Thunder contracted quickly and did not give Bledsoe any chance to complete a layup. However, Bledsoe’s purpose was also achieved. He tossed his right hand and passed the ball to Antetokounmpo on the other side of the elbow.

After receiving the ball, Antetokounmpo started for the first time. Under the cover of Lopez, he left Robertson and was about to make a layup. At this time, Adams quickly received the basket, straightened his chest, and raised his hands. As a result, Antetokounmpo had eyes on the back of his head and threw the ball backhand to Lopez, who once again pulled it beyond the three-point line.

It was almost the same place. After Lopez received the basketball, he opened his hand and threw the ball easily.
