Add One, I Don’t Know How To Fight
Chapter 170 169: The strength of the top five shooting guards (please vote for me!)
It stands to reason that between the Spurs and Raptors, teams that meet twice a season, there will generally be no friction.
This is indeed the case. Before this season, the Raptors and the Spurs basically had no intersection.
But since Bruce Bowen joined the Spurs, everything has changed.
Speaking of which, Bowen has some connections with the top five shooting guards.
He was a teammate of the 76ers and AI for a short time. He once kicked Tracy McGrady in the face with a flying leg, and also stepped on Kobe Bryant, more than once.
It's just that the volute was lucky not to be injured.
Of course, Bowen's closest contact with the top five shooting guards was the time when Li Ang blasted him.
That impact further strengthened Bowen's playing style - if we don't play the positive side, we will only play the negative side.
After being dealt with by Li Ang, Bowen actually wanted to change his ways.
What is the purpose of playing ball? To make money.
My buttocks are smashed, how can I make money in the future?
Moreover, the feeling of screaming in pain even when squatting on the toilet is really too much.
Didn’t you see that in the playoffs last season, Bowen did not do anything extraordinary after being educated by Li Ang.
But after transferring to the Spurs, Vic's old thieves called him a helper.
Not only did he not restrain Bowen's behavior, he also excused Bowen at every turn and defended Bowen many times in front of reporters.
Bowen was a man who had been hurt by Larry Brown. After it was revealed that Brown had deliberately hurt others, Brown sold Bowen without saying a word to avoid suspicion.
But in the Spurs, instead of clearing up the relationship with Bowen, the old thief Vicky spoke for Bowen again and again.
A man who has been hurt cannot stand this damn tenderness.
With the support of the head coach, Bowen suddenly felt that he had found his value as a player.
So after coming to the Spurs, Bowen followed the old path of a championship stepping-stone.
Let's put it this way, the old thief dragged Bowen, who was about to embark on the right path, to the evil path. It is commonly known as: dragging the women of good families into the water.
So, in the last game, Bowen failed to step on Carter.
Although Carter was lucky not to be injured, the two sides still got angry.
Especially since Li Ang is still here today, the tension between the two teams is likely to skyrocket.
In order to protect his Bao, the old thief Vicky made a move to strike first.
In a routine interview before the game, a reporter asked the veteran: "What level do you think the intensity of the confrontation between the two sides will be in this game?"
The old thief shrugged: "That depends on Li Ang. As we all know, he is a very rough player. Of course I am not saying that roughness is bad, but sometimes I think his actions are a bit too rough. If his actions are too much, We’re definitely upping the intensity as well.”
The translation of the old thief's words is: "If Bowen hurts someone, it's because Li Ang moved first!"
A good move and a rake.
At the same time, the old thief is also reminding the referee to keep an eye on Li Ang.
If you don't brag about what he does, then I will do it my own way.
The old thief's words quickly reached Li Ang's ears. Li Ang had seen disgusting people, but he had never seen anyone as disgusting as the old thief.
Can this drive to me?
"Lee, how do you respond to Coach Popovich's comments about you?"
"I don't know how he understands confrontation. If stepping, kicking and maliciously hurting people are not confrontation, then I can give him a full set. We have not forgotten how Bruce treated Carter the last time we played against each other.
If we want to play basketball, we will play well. If we want to fight something else, we can fight it well. "
Li Ang was not afraid at all and fought back head-on.
Because the old thief still has some reputation in the Ugly Country basketball circle, most players have to give him face even if they hate him.
But Li Ang can't control that much. As a Chinese player, even if he wants to sell the coach's face, it will be the face of people like Jiang Xingquan.
You old thief has a lot of face to sell to me.
The old thief was furious. After all, this was the first time in history that a player dared to attack him like this.
He felt extremely offended.
Stern was very angry when he saw Li Ang arguing with the old thief.
Do you still have me as the president in your eyes? ?
What kind of beating and killing? Is the NBA all about fighting and killing?
Stern then planned to go to the scene to watch the game. Let me see if any of you dare to do something under my nose!
Just like that, on February 28, the Spurs VS Raptors game started at the ATT Center in San Antonio.
David Stern came to the scene in person. Not only was the old thief Vicki not afraid, he actually became bolder.
Bowen's hurtful actions were often done inadvertently.
This aspect can be said to be similar to Malone.
Therefore, although Bowen hurt countless people, he was never suspended.
But Li Ang is different. The old thief Vicki knows very well Li Ang's stupid character.
As long as you provoke him, he won't care about anything, and he will do all kinds of things for you.
It just so happens that Stern is here today. Once Li Ang takes action, he will suffer.
The game is about to start and everyone is warming up.
But Li Ang and Carter's warm-up movements are different from others.
Others just pressed their legs or picked up a basketball and took a shot.
As for Li Ang and Carter, they made direct gestures.
"One-two, lower your head, one-two, lower your head! Yes, that's the rhythm. Pay attention to the pace, and the pace must be flexible. If the pace is not flexible, how can you defend!?"
Li Ang picked up two small mats and started boxing with Carter.
This seriousness frightened Bowen out of his wits.
"What, you old thief? I have a stomachache today! You know, men always have a few weeks in a month." Bowen swallowed. He suddenly didn't want to play this game, so he repeated his old tricks. Give.
However, the old thief Vicki was not Pat Riley. He could tell at a glance that Bowen was playing the role.
"Don't talk nonsense to me. What are you afraid of? Don't be frightened by their actions. The president is right here. They dare to touch you! If he spanks you again, is it a spanking? No, then It’s a slap in the president’s face!”
The old thief patted Bowen on the shoulder. He thought that Leon and Carter were just bluffing.
The referee signaled the starting players of both sides to stand in the center circle. The starting players for the Spurs were Antonio Daniels, Derrick Anderson, who was nicknamed by the media as the second-in-command with an annual salary of 2 million, Bowen, Duncan and the Admiral.
The starting lineup is different from last time.
In fact, the Spurs' starting lineup this season is not very stable. Basically, only Duncan, General and Derek Anderson are stable starters. The other two positions are rotated as needed.
Many people may not believe it, but the Spurs have actually begun to enter a soft reconstruction period. Since winning the championship in 1999, the Spurs have actually been trying to replace the lineup as others other than Duncan began to age.
Their re-emergence only happened after Parker, Ginobili and others came out.
Many people don't think the Spurs are rebuilding because their regular season ranking has been excellent during this period, and they are still No. 1 in the Western Conference this season.
Unlike other rebuilding teams, they often win more than ten or twenty games in a single season.
The reason why the Spurs' rebuilding period is not so shameful is precisely because they have an omnipotent No. 1 pick.
In the past few years, the old thief in Vicky has not had many tactical options, so the best tactic is to use Duncan to death.
It can only be said that the No. 1 scholar and the No. 1 scholar are different.
Some of the No. 1 picks led the team to rebuild, and they were able to take first place in the Western Conference in the regular season.
And some number one picks lead the team to rebuild, and they are directly the number three picks in four years.
From this perspective, Duncan's ability to lead the team in rebuilding is inferior.
Therefore, although the Spurs are number one in the Western Conference, their strength is not so strong that they are insurmountable.
Being able to take first place in the Western Conference is, to put it bluntly, not because the Lakers have been suffering from injuries and did not dare to exert their strength in the regular season.
Last time without Li Ang, the Raptors also caused a lot of trouble for the Spurs.
If Carter hadn't been a little timid because he was afraid of being stepped on by Bowen, it's not certain who would win in that game.
The game officially started and Duncan won the ball for the Spurs.
After the attack started, the first ball was also directly handed to the idiot.
At this time, the Spurs are really supported by idiots.
Li Ang withstood the idiot, but the top pick who led the team to rebuild the first team in the Western Conference quickly showed his strength.
He pushed back so hard that even Li Ang, who had the diamond-level back-fighting punisher badge, was forced to take a step back.
Then, Duncan made a very soft turnaround jump shot and easily scored the ball.
Tim Duncan looked at Leon coldly, just like the expression he had after blocking McGrady in the All-Star Game.
His expression cannot be described as dull, but should be described as cold.
The way he looked at Li Ang seemed to say: "Is this the current All-Star MVP?"
Duncan was a little angry in today's game. Although the All-Star defeat was nothing, after all, it was Duncan himself who missed the key shot in the end.
Again, you can perform if you want to All-Stars, but you can't perform on my head.
Carter's block made Duncan the biggest backdrop for that All-Star game.
It can only be said that Deng Shu is still young at this time.
He will find out in a few years.
Being a backdrop is simply too common for him~
Li Ang was easily scored by the idiot as soon as he came up. To be honest, with Li Ang's current strength, it is indeed too difficult to defend against idiots one-on-one.
No matter how old David Robinson is, the skinny camel will always be bigger than the horse, so Oakley doesn't dare to let him go easily.
Without assistance, it would be very difficult for Li Ang to defend against idiots.
But Li Ang didn't make it easy for the idiot. In the next attack, Li Ang kept wandering in the middle distance, which forced Deng Shu to follow.
Once Duncan comes out, half of the Spurs' defense will be useless.
Carter broke through Bowen and went straight to the inside, facing the elderly general and making a hard layup.
After that, the game almost entered a rhythm where no one could guard anyone.
Duncan beat Li Ang in the paint, and the all-powerful Carter also embarrassed Bowen's defense.
Of course, Duncan and Carter are not completely defenseless.
Li Ang used the Kuaishou badge to cut through Duncan's balls several times.
Carter also hit the iron several times under Bowen's fierce defense.
But overall, neither team could beat the other, and the score was quite tight.
After half the game, the two sides were tied at 45. Carter scored 14 points in the half and Deng Shu scored 13 points in the half.
Because Li Ang focused all his energy on the defensive end, he only scored 7 points and 7 rebounds.
Although the two sides ended the game without a clear winner, Wilkens was still a little nervous.
After all, Deng Shu has always been an insider. His stability on the offensive end is naturally better than Carter's on the outside.
It's a simple truth, the closer you are to the basket, the easier it is to score.
After Carter's physical condition declined in the second half, it's a matter of opinion whether his shooting percentage can still compete with Deng Shu's.
Moreover, no matter how well Carter plays, he and Duncan are still trading against each other.
You score one and I score another. No matter how many points the two of them score, there is no way to determine the outcome.
At this time, the Raptors need a new scoring point to stand out.
So, Wilkens decided to liberate Li Ang: "Lee, you play the third position in the second half. Duncan doesn't want you to defend, you find a way for me to score as many points as possible on the offensive end!"
This is the Nth time Wilkens has assigned offensive tasks to Li Ang this season. Since Li Ang's mid-range shot became stable, his status on the offensive end has skyrocketed.
After listening to what Wilkens said, Old Willis showed a desperate expression.
Okay, now it's my turn to suffer Duncan's abuse.
Wilkens' strategy is actually correct, because Li Ang knows very well how the Lakers swept the Spurs in the 2001 Western Conference Finals.
In that series, Kobe had 40+10 in two consecutive games. But the most outrageous thing is that the Lakers also have a fat man who scored 40+20 in two consecutive games.
What is Wang Zha? This is what is called the Wang Zha combination.
O'Neal basically matched up with Duncan, but Kobe singled out the entire Spurs perimeter, so the Spurs were helpless.
To put it bluntly, if you want to win against the Spurs, you need two things: First, someone can challenge Duncan. Second, another person can step up and score.
These two requirements may not seem high, but in fact many teams cannot achieve them.
And now, Wilkens is about to bring out his king.
At the beginning of the second half, the old thief of Vicki saw the Raptors' change of formation.
But he didn't pay too much attention to it. Using Willis to defend Duncan is the same as using Li Ang to defend Duncan.
For an insider of Deng Shu's level, in this era of illegal defense, no one in the league can guarantee that he can be restrained.
The old thief Vicki is still thinking about defense, but in fact, the Raptors' substitution is to adjust the offense.
Li Ang was moved down to the third position, and Bowen had to go with Carter again.
Therefore, the task of defending Li Ang falls on the Spurs' 2 million second-in-command Derek Anderson.
Derek Anderson is really the strongest helper the Spurs have ever found for Duncan before Parker and Ginobili.
Anderson is actually pretty good defensively, but he has a standard guard build. He is less than 2 meters tall and lean.
Li Ang stood in front of him, his body shape was not on the same level.
In this attack, Bowen still guarded Carter tightly, so Mark Jackson glanced at Leon.
Li Ang immediately started, trying to get rid of Anderson with off-the-ball running.
Anderson didn't pay much attention at first. As a power forward, it's okay to use your speed to get rid of a power forward in the same position.
But if you use speed to get rid of a defender, you may be thinking nonsense.
However, when Li Ang started his 86 and started flying, Anderson found that he really seemed to be unable to keep up!
Li Ang's speed of 86 is not comparable to the likes of AI and Nash, but it is still comparable to ordinary guards.
Anderson found that he had to run with all his strength to bite Li Ang.
At this moment, Oakley stood up tacitly and blocked Anderson for Leon.
Li Ang successfully ran out of the open space, then caught the ball and shot from the mid-range to end the offense!
Li Ang feels that he is more like a CIC version of Thompson than Young Zhan.
Shooting without the ball, active defense and the same sparse dribbling!
Of course, Li Ang has stronger physical fitness than Thompson, which can be regarded as compensation to a certain extent.
After Li Ang scored, the old thief was not worried.
If you have the guts, you should also guard against Deng Shu's attack.
It turned out to be really defensive.
This time, as soon as Duncan received the basketball, Li Ang double-teamed him.
Deng Shu then passed the ball to his most reliable partner Anderson, but like most guards in this era, Anderson's three-point ability was limited to shooting open shots.
If there is any interference, it will not be allowed.
After all, in basketball at this time, the three-pointer is just an auxiliary means. If you are open, you can take one shot, but once there is interference, most people will not choose to take the shot despite the interference.
Therefore, facing Li Ang's timely defense, Anderson gave up shooting and instead broke through with the ball.
Just when he thought he could pass by Li Ang easily, Li Ang took a step sideways, then stretched out his elbow and gave Anderson a blow.
Don’t forget, when he upgraded for the first time this season, Li Ang increased the lateral speed attribute to 80.
It's more than enough to deal with a second- or third-rate second position like Anderson!
Li Ang was very proud. Now, do you know why I am recognized as the top five shooting guards?
Kobe Bryant: Who recognized it?
Wilkens was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Ang could be so effective at defending the second position.
Sometimes, Wilkens even feels that it is more appropriate for Li Ang to play the second and third positions than to let him play the fourth position.
In desperation, Anderson could only make a sudden jump shot.
But under the interference of Li Ang's long arms, Anderson shot and hit the ball, and Li Ang's defense was a great success!
Bowen swallowed. As soon as he came up, he saw Leon elbowing Anderson!
And you said you're not good at fighting?
And, now there is a very scary thing.
If Anderson continues to be unable to guard against Leon, then Popovich is likely to send Bowen to guard against Leon!
Damn it.
Isn’t this purely life-threatening?
"Coach, I'm going to squirt, my stomach really hurts!" Bowen turned around and shouted at the old thief Vicky.
He really didn't dare to continue playing in this game!
"Squirt? If you want to squirt, squirt on the basketball court too. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and defend!"
When it came to the defensive part again, Derek Anderson gritted his teeth. He still didn't believe that he, a defender, would lose out on speed when defending a power forward.
absurd!
In fact, Anderson's steal ability is also very strong. He averaged 1.5 steals per game this season, ranking among the top fifteen in the league.
But Li Ang doesn't dribble at all. Are you angry or not?
Li Ang originally wanted to continue running without the ball to beat Anderson, but then he thought about it. Things don't have to be so complicated at all!
Li Ang looked at Mark Jackson, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Then, Li Ang raised his round butt to push away Anderson, raising his hand for the ball.
Appeared, one of the top five shooting guard skills, the pig arch is invincible!
As we all know, the top five shooting guards all have unique skills. Iverson has his fancy dribbling, Carter has his powerful dunks, and McGrady's pull-up is also a masterpiece.
And Li Ang relied on this superb pig arch to establish his position.
What? Is there another one, you ask?
There is also a Lakers guard who is often described in one sentence: "What weird thing did the top five shooting guards get into?"
In the past, Li Ang could only turn his back to a close position to shoot, but now, Li Ang can also hit mid-range turnaround jumpers.
As long as the defender is not too strong and does not interfere too much, Li Ang can usually score goals.
In this attack, Li Ang used his back to turn over and hit a mid-range jump shot.
Li Ang scored two goals in a row. Anderson himself was not nervous, but Bowen was really nervous.
He saw the old thief Vicki stand up, but it was okay and he just yelled at Anderson.
The Spurs then relied on Deng Shu's low singles to narrow the point difference to 2 points.
But now whether Anderson can guard Li Ang has become a big question.
Li Ang is still the same, once the pig gets humped, he won't stop.
He once again leaned on Anderson with his back, ready to continue the post-up play.
However, Derek Anderson is not a fool. This time, when Mark Jackson passed the ball to Li Ang, he suddenly jumped out and stretched out his long arms to steal the ball!
Jackson fed the ball a little too casually, and Anderson was particularly active, so he completed the steal before Li Ang's back shot took shape.
After grabbing the basketball, Anderson went down quickly.
He rushed quickly because he was filled with anger at this time.
He must make this counterattack to prove that he is not easy to mess with on the defensive end!
Bowen also reacted immediately and participated in the fast break.
Because he didn't have to hold the ball, he ran more than one position faster than Anderson.
However, Anderson did not choose to pass the ball, he had to score the goal himself.
Anderson just went straight to the basket, leaped high, and prepared to end the offense with a one-handed dunk.
But as soon as Anderson jumped up, he felt the basket became dim.
The next second, a big hand directly pressed on the basketball he raised high, and grabbed the ball directly!
"Chasing him, Li Ang's pursuit was too timely! Oh my god, did you see his speed just now? He is not inferior to Anderson as a defender!"
Anderson thought he could easily get rid of Li Ang in the fast break, but he couldn't be more wrong. In fact, Li Ang stuck behind Anderson from beginning to end.
Moreover, the faster sprint speed also makes Li Ang's jumping height even more terrifying.
Li Ang didn't mean to catch the pretender, mainly because he found that he jumped too high and couldn't hit the ball, so he could only catch it with his hands.
The Spurs fans at the scene were shocked. What kind of god is chasing the horse?
Because this block was so sudden, even the Spurs players themselves didn't react.
While they were still stunned, Li Ang passed the ball to Carter. Carter took advantage of the chaos and rushed into the penalty area with a big windmill dunk, pulling the stunned people out of the time vortex.
Derek Anderson sat on the ground, looking at No. 3 who raised his arms high to celebrate the goal, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Damn it.
He suddenly felt that saying that Li Ang was the top five shooting guards was not just a joke.
Seeing this situation, the old thief Vicki called a timeout. He must make some adjustments to deal with the Raptors' sudden changes.
Then, the old thief Vicki's first words after the pause made Bowen tremble.
"Bruce, next you go to defend Li Ang!"
Bowen's head twitched and he wanted to retire.
Thanks to the leader, DD, for the reward. Thank you, brother. There will be another one in the afternoon, 10,000 words will be updated today!
