Build a Dream Dynasty

Leonard and Durant have been reimbursed for the season successively. For James and Harden, it is undoubtedly the best window to win the championship, especially for James, it is the best chance to win the championship.

Although he has already held a championship and four MVPs, the outside world does not have too many doubts about James' personal ability, but he has chosen to leave after testing the free agent market twice in his career, which has also attracted "three surnames" for James. slave" infamy. In the face of this kind of attack, the best way is to use the championship to fight back, just like after James won the championship in 12 years, the taint of deciding 1.0 was washed clean, that's the reason.

And in this season, the 76ers really don't have many opponents. In the East, the Nets are seriously injured. It is difficult for the Eagles to stand up in tough battles. The Bucks and Cavaliers are still very young. , Raptors you can always trust the trash bros. There are a few teams in the West that have good combat effectiveness. The Spurs, Grizzlies, Mavericks, Jazz, and Trail Blazers are all okay. After Dragic joined, the Clippers are doing very well now, but they are destined to have only one team. The team can advance to the finals.

Perhaps with this in mind, Schneider also began to arrange for James and Harden to take turns "absent due to injury" in games against underdogs. These two people have an advantage, that is, the lower limit of leading the team is very high, and they can lead any lineup. This is an advantage, but in the MVP competition, they are somewhat detrimental to each other. After all, James led the team to win It proves that Harden's importance is not that high, and Harden leading the team to win can also deduce that James' teammates are very strong. On the other hand, Curry, when he was absent, the Nets only won one game, and the judgment was judged (dog head).

Curry wants to lock in the MVP and scoring champion, and his physical condition has always been in a normal state. Stevens also arranges as many shots as possible for him within his ability.

The Nets played at home against the Jazz, the team's long-term bitter host. Since Jiang Mingliang took over the Nets, the team has never double-killed a strong team from the Northwest in a single season. In the first round of this season, the team is still a crisp defeat. .

Among the All-Star selections, Jiang Mingliang's only choice to interfere with Curry was to let him choose Klay Thompson first when choosing a substitute, and finally saw the Splash Brothers fit together on the All-Star stage. Davis has established a good relationship, and Curry and Thompson don't have any friendship.

In addition to Jiang Mingliang's own Thompson, the relationship between the Jazz and the Nets also includes Jeremy Lin and Hayward. Jeremy Lin needless to say, Hayward got the maximum salary from the Jazz last summer, and he also has to thank the Nets for offering him a maximum salary and forcing the Jazz to match. In fact, Hayward actually hopes to join the Nets in his heart. First, he has greater hopes for the championship. Second, he can play under his mentor Stevens. Third, Hayward's wife also hopes to enjoy life in a big city, and Not in quiet Salt Lake City.

But there is no way, the league must support small ball market teams. Usually, which team is selected, on the basis that they do not intend to release people, you have to play there for at least 8 years. Therefore, Yao Ming is often talked about because he is loyal to the Rockets. Otherwise, those who would have gone to the Lakers to join forces with Kobe would not understand the rules of the league.

The French iron tower Gobert won the jump ball and the game started.

The Nets were man-to-man defense, Jeremy Lin and Gobert played a pick-and-roll, which attracted Porzingis to switch defenses and pass the ball to the right corner. A simple transfer created a dislocation, and Hayward faced Dreaming Green. Facing the DPOY hotness this season, Hayward used a beautiful European step to avoid the angle of the layup, and scored with a right hand layup, helping the Jazz take the lead.

The Nets attacked, Porzingis gave Curry a pick-and-roll, the Jazz decisively double-teamed Curry, Curry passed the ball to the middle, Porzingis did not hesitate after receiving the ball, a jumper from outside the three-point line, a three-pointer Hit, returned one.

Although Porzingis's three-pointers are occasional, he can only hit 0.7 per game, but his hit rate is 34%. Simply put, you can't let it go.

The Jazz attacked, and Jeremy Lin broke through to attract the defense and then passed to Hayward in the bottom corner. The point missed under the interference, and Porzingis grabbed the backcourt rebound.

It is not easy to do a good job of protecting the frame in front of the French Tower, especially with the help of Favors inside the Jazz.

However, this pair of inside partners has a slight conflict in their play style, but it is the biggest difficulty for the Jazz to upgrade to the top team. Gobert's ability to protect the frame is very strong, with height, wingspan, and defensive awareness. The disadvantage is that the strength is relatively insufficient, and the heavy weapons used to defend against the inside line are at a disadvantage. But now that small balls are popular, his advantages have been magnified a lot. On the offensive end, he can provide high-quality pick-and-rolls and first-class ability to eat cakes, but at the same time, the threat range is limited to a small step outside the three-second zone, and there is not much threat outside. His existence is a kind of restriction for the opponent's outside assaulters, but it also suppresses the breakthrough players of his own team. Although Favors at the team's power forward position has a free throw line jumper ability, he is basically more accustomed to hitting in. On the defensive end, he can also provide a similar defensive effect to Gobert, but the effect Not as good as the other side.

The offensive end and the defensive end overlap somewhat. The Jazz's approach is to use Favors as a pseudo-starter and use Gobert as much as possible. This is a good idea, but the premise is that Favors has a good temper, and he is really a good baby, which is why the Jazz are very harmonious. Jeremy Lin, Thompson, Hayward, and Favors all have good personalities, and Gobert is a rookie. Even if he is a bit arrogant, what kind of trouble can he cause right now?

The Jazz attacked, and Jeremy Lin took it to the frontcourt and passed to Hayward on the left first. When it came to Hayward's pass, he made a homeopathic shot, but stepped on the line first, and only counted 2 points.

The Nets attacked, and Curry first passed to Green who was pulled to the outside, and then he and Porzingis had no ball to cover and received the ball in an air cut.

After such a run, Curry received the ball from the bottom line and Gobert formed a misalignment. He changed direction and broke through successfully, scoring a backhand layup.

The Jazz attacked, and Hayward failed to break through on the right side. He leaned on Aminu with his back at 45 degrees near the penalty area, pushed it to the baseline, turned and fell back for a jumper.

Hayward, nicknamed White James, can basically be considered a weakened version. But in the shot, the touch may be softer, and the basketball is hollow into the net.

To be honest, the Nets have faced many strong teams this season and lost some games, but the sense of oppression they have given them is only a handful stronger than that of the Jazz. It is the kind that no matter how clever the Nets are on the offensive end, the Jazz can still play back on the offensive end. Thompson, Hayward, and Jeremy Lin all have considerable scoring ability, and Favors and Gobert on the inside can also help. Continuing the firepower, the Nets really encountered the opponent's suppression in the first quarter, and Curry was in good condition.

After being scored by others against Curry at the beginning, the Jazz did the opposite, strangled the other scoring points of the Nets, and adopted a one-on-one defense against Curry. After calling back, I have to say that this idea is very bold, but it hit the current painful foot of the Nets, and the firepower is not enough.

At 34:30, the Jazz led by 4 points in the first quarter.

The starting lineup is young and durable. The Jazz's bench lineup is a little weaker, but they still have Burke, a good rookie point guard. Because of physical confrontation, he is easier to be targeted in the starting lineup, but as a backup point guard, he has good fire support. , and the offensive pass, shooting, and breakthrough are all very good. Facing Prigioni, he performed with ease and helped the team through a difficult time. Soon, the main lineup returned. The Jazz lineup is young and physically strong. The advantages of strong and stable combat effectiveness are immediately reflected.

Next, the Jazz still relied on positional warfare, firmly pressing down on the Nets to play, and the Nets relied more on running and bombing counterattacks and pick-and-roll scoring to deal with their opponents. At the end of the first half, the Jazz led 60 to 50.

In the third quarter of the game, Thompson of the Jazz started the big move of Buddha's light. Because he did not partner with Curry, Clay's appearance rate was not as high as in his previous life. Different people have different opinions on the gains and losses in terms of technology and honor, but it is definitely a big loss in terms of money. Posted, because Anta was not favored at all, but Jeremy Lin, after being naturalized to the Chinese national team, got a 3-year 9 million dollar shoe contract from Xtep, which is even more expensive than Leonard, Wall, Lowry, etc. Players at the All-Star level get more.

Catch the ball, shoot it, and shoot it. Fernandez switched to JR. The offensive end may have improved, or it may be more nerve-wracking, but the defense has dropped a lot. But, as the most convulsive shooting guard in history, when Clay drives big, even if he is replaced by Fernandez, he may not be able to stop him.

In the duel last season, Clay insisted on winning the soaring point battle with Curry. Let alone this game, Curry's touch is just "good", scoring 11 points on 4 of 8 shots, which is really not comparable to a single quarter Clay scored 24 points on 10 of 11 shots. The point difference was also widened to 23 points by the Jazz.

After catching up with Clay's bursting quarter, the morale of the Nets was also hit a bit low. Fortunately, Curry did not give up. He once led the team to close the point difference to 11 points in the fourth quarter, but the Jazz The team played a beautiful offense and defense at the critical moment. First, Gobert blocked Porzingis's offensive frame twice in a row, and then Hayward's offense at this stage scored 2+1, reopening the point difference. Leading the team finally defeated the Nets 128:114, double-killing opponents this season. (41-16)

Individually strong and complementary wings Hayward and Thompson are important factors for the Jazz's victory in this campaign. The past strength of the Nets is also supported by the league's top wing players.

Jiang Mingliang picked Leonard, Bogdanovic, and Bertans three wing players in a row in the 2011 draft. Leonard grew into the team's No. 2 hero for the championship as he wished. Danovic made a breakthrough in the Pistons, while Bertans transformed into a space-based insider because of his growth in height. Liggins, who was at the end of the last round, is still playing for the Thunder. Most of the wing players hoarded in the draft have achieved good results.

Although March Madness has not yet started, with the start of NCAA competitions at all levels, each team in the league has already launched research on their favorite rookies, and the Nets are no exception. There was none in the second round, but the team still sent scouts to find suitable potential stocks. After all, second-round picks are not difficult to buy, and the price is right. You can buy second-round picks from western teams with cash.

Instead of chasing popular rookies, Jiang Mingliang's inspection list for the team's scouts included Josh Richardson, Monterez Harrell, Norman Powell, these rookies who may appear in the second round, and the other candidate is It's Spain, Real Madrid's insider Guillermo Hernangomez. This insider was recommended to Jiang Mingliang by Real Madrid. He has solid offensive skills and a high basketball IQ. He can step back and complete mid-range shots. It is lack of mobility, not flexible and strong enough, and not very reliable on the defensive end.

Of course, the second round of the lottery is like washing out the sand in the waves. It is favored in all aspects, and it will not fall to the second round at all.

On February 24th, the Nets lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers 113-114 away and suffered a two-game losing streak (41-17). With 3 seconds left in the game, Wiggins dunked the ball that Irving missed. Going into the basket, killing the Nets, and making Curry's 46-point performance in vain, and Porzingis, who became the background board for Wiggins' dunk, will undoubtedly contribute to this game. He is mainly responsible for the loss. As an insider, if he doesn't get stuck on the backboard, he is dereliction of duty. In terms of experience and awareness, Porzingis is indeed not as secure as Lopez.

You know, after Porzingis took the position early this season, Jiang Mingliang has already moved the idea of ​​​​trading Lopez, regardless of his own preferences, Lopez has too many injuries, don't look at Lopez In the past two seasons, they have made great contributions to the team in the playoffs. In fact, if it weren't for Jiang Mingliang's poisonous vision and Stevens' skillful use of troops, the Nets would be able to secure the regular season championship. Qualified for the playoffs? Which team in the league dares to say that the team can make it to the playoffs after missing half a season with a top-paid insider? Besides, now that Porzingis has played out, Lopez is willing to serve as a backup center in his contract year? It should be unlikely.

The Nets have lost a salary burden and have more room to operate. Lopez will play the main role in a team that can give him the main position, work hard for the next big contract, and break up peacefully. It is better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes.
