The Strongest Bishop in the NBA - Chapter 409
The Bucks’ second regular season opponent is the Washington Wizards.
On October 30, the Bucks will face the Wizards’ challenge at home.
Although Thompson, Butler and Green were all missing, the Wizards’ strength is still recognized as one of the strongest teams in the league.
Before the start of the new season, the Wizards still ranked first in the championship handicap given by the bookmaker, but this time the Cavaliers ranked second are extremely close, and there is not a huge gap like last year.
Of course, this is a common view of outside media.
As the former coach of the Wizards, Wang Xiao felt that today’s Wizards and the former Wizards are two completely different teams, and the latter cannot be compared with the former.
The Wizards of the Wang Xiao period, mainly playing small ball tactics, the core of which is the three-point deterrence brought by Curry and Thompson.
As long as these two players are on the field, then the opponent will not dare to arbitrarily assist in defense, and can only perform one-on-one single defense tactics in a proper manner. Use your personal abilities.
But this is also a matter of no way, even if Wang Xiao is still in the Wizards team, it will be in a dilemma.
There are so many salaries for a team. Curry and George both renew their top salary. What can the team do when the rookie contract expires?
Leonard and Thompson can only choose one, and it is difficult to choose Wang Xiao.
Thompson is a versatile player, both offensive and defensive, and can adapt to any tactics in any system.
Leonard is the future’s top superstar, the strongest defensive small forward in history. In the 2019 playoffs, he also demonstrated a super scoring ability no less than that of James Durant.
Should we leave Thompson who contributed more to the team, or Leonard, one of the best players in the future? How to choose this stuff?
The Wizards chose the latter, and the top stars can bring more benefits to the team, but the result is to give up Thompson, which is more suitable for the team, cheaper Wang Xiao’s Bucks, let the team ‘S overall strength has declined further.
Faced with such a team of wizards, Wang Xiao’s strategy is very simple, kill Curry!
As the Wizards’ only stable scoring point outside the three-point line, as long as Curry is misfired, the Wizards are equivalent to no three-point fire support.
Leonard’s three-pointer is not considered a threat to Wang Xiao. Although George’s three-pointer is better than Leonard’s, it is only a normal level, and it is much worse than the lethality of the basket.
Wang Xiaoning prefers to make a three-pointer on the outside, and he is not willing to let them enter the inside to make a kill.
…
When the game started and Curry held the ball after halftime, he was shocked to find that Thompson was standing in front of him.
“Why are you defending me?”
Curry and Thompson had the best relationship. Even if Thompson went to the Bucks, Curry had no worries and asked directly.
Thompson shrugged when he heard the news, “Nothing, the coach arranged it.”
“Coach?” Curry couldn’t help rolling his eyes.
It’s so cruel, so aiming at yourself like this!
Thompson is 2 meters in height. In addition to speed, height, strength, wingspan, bouncing and other aspects have completely crushed Curry. More importantly, as a teammate, Thompson can be said to be familiar with Curry, and defense is naturally like a fish. .
For Thompson, Curry may be able to use the speed breakthrough to get to the basket, but if he wants to shoot a three-pointer from the outside, it is basically impossible without teammates to assist in pick-and-roll!
Without any hesitation, Curry directly passed the ball to George, who played against the Bucks forward Chris Middleton.
After catching the ball, George found that Middleton’s position was a little behind, so he did not hesitate to directly make a three-point shot.

In fact, Middleton strictly followed Wang Xiao’s strategy of preventing sudden and unforeseen shots, and only reached forward to interfere after George took off.
The lower position of the station made Middleton no successful interference, but George’s three-pointer did not score.
Offensive and defensive conversion, Oladipo, the guest point guard of the new season, controlled the ball after halftime, and then directly passed the ball to Adetokounmpo.
The brother who has successfully gained weight this season will become the Bucks’ main point of attack, even if he is standing in front of the best defensive player Kawhi Leonard.
Holding the ball against Leonard, the letter brother was not nervous at all, and only a little excitement.
Last season, four games in the regular season and five games in the playoffs, the letter brother was directly against Leonard.
In 9 games, Leonard averaged 22 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2.7 steals per game.
The brother of letters is 14.5 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 turnovers, and the shooting rate has just exceeded 40%.
In the face of this league’s best defensive player, known as the strongest defender of the striker, the letter brother was severely educated and almost cast a psychological shadow.
But this season is different!
Brother Alphabet directly chose to force a breakthrough. His speed is very fast, but Leonard’s judgment is correct and he is blocked on the route of his breakthrough.
After the two confronted each other, Leonard was stunned, and looked at the letter brother with some consternation.
“This guy has strengthened so much in just a few months?”
In the moment of contact with Brother Alphabet, Leonard felt a sense of confrontation with James in a trance.
That kind of overbearing power seems to be crushed over himself!
But this is clearly not James! It’s a rookie who was abused by himself last season.
Taking advantage of the moment he stiffened Leonard, Brother Alphabet passed him by the way, and then speeded up immediately.
At this moment, the advantage of leg length was brought to the fullest. It only took two steps, and the letter brother rushed to the basket, so fast that Gobert did not even react.
Legs jumped, the letter brother with one arm rounded the basketball into the hoop.
“boom–!”
The tremendous force caused the entire basket to shake violently.
“Yannis-Adokumbo!”
The home of the Bucks instantly boiled!
The single-headed Leonard plus the dunks dazzled the audience. The new season’s alphabet brother appeared unusually violent, and this purely violent aesthetic is the charm of the NBA!
“This guy!”
Leonard looked back at Brother Alphabet, and at the same time remembered the feeling in the brief confrontation just now.
Although it was only a short round of confrontation, Leonard understood that the guy in front of him might have been raised to the level of James and Durant.
The coach really deserves to be a coach… actually taught another monster!
As the so-called trick is eaten all over the world, Adetokounmpo is far from comparable with James, Durant and others in other respects, but just to break the link with the ball, Adetokounmpo has reached the league’s most The top level, relying on the unique physical talent, has even exceeded the existing level of the league.
