I am Really an Insider
Chapter 494 491: Tony’s explosive offense, the first generation of Ohio State double juniors (5.9K v
Tony Allen, former Boston's Wade.
Since the serious injury, the word "star" has nothing to do with it.
But Teacher Tony did not lose his dream because of this. After all, people don’t have dreams. What’s the difference between that and salted fish?
The MVP is definitely out of luck in his life. Have you ever seen an MVP whose whole team got nervous when he hit an empty layup?
DPOY rarely gives to outside players, and with Tony's offensive ability, the best lineup is definitely out of the question.
If that's the case, then it's time to strive for the best defensive team, right?
The best defensive team, this is the dream of Mr. Tony, a role player.
But the damn thing is, the best defensive team is not so easy to win.
As for defenders, the competition has been very fierce in recent years.
Although Tony's defense is already at the top level on the back line, there are only two guard positions in the best defensive team.
Nacai, Paul and Rondo are all more famous than Mr. Tony, so Mr. Tony has only been relegated to the second defensive team over the years.
Everyone knows that he is an excellent perimeter defender, but Tony still lacks a phenomenal performance.
If he can have an impressive series, he could be in the running for the All-Defensive First Team next year.
Let me ask, what could be more impressive than limiting the scoring champion of the season?
Teacher Tony takes Du Xiaoshuai's defensive task very seriously.
During training breaks, he watched Du Xiaoshuai's game videos.
At lunch, he watched Du Xiaoshuai's game video.
Even when he was changing clothes in the afternoon, he was watching Du Xiaoshuai's game videos.
"I said, Tony" Wayne couldn't stand it anymore.
Just watch the video. Do you dare to watch the video with your pants on?
Although they have been together for many years, Wayne still couldn't help but want to ask: "What are your hobbies?"
"Wei, I have thoroughly studied this kid's style of play. His ball-handling offense is still very immature, and I think I can make him very uncomfortable!"
Tony obviously didn't care about the fact that he was not wearing pants. He had devoted himself wholeheartedly to studying Du Xiaoshuai.
"Yeah, as long as we can limit him, the Thunder's offense is basically finished." Wayne shrugged. The Thunder's offense still relies heavily on Du Xiaoshuai.
What did you say? Turtle?
Forget about Turtle's playoff shooting percentage.
Harden? Harden has not yet transformed into Harden.
With Durant in check, the Turtles and Bearded Players can still perform well.
Without Durant's control, the entire Thunder offense would be in ruins.
Solving Durant is equivalent to solving most of the troubles.
"Scoring champion, scoring champion, just wait and see." Tony muttered to himself, immersed in the video again.
Wayne shook his head. Even though there was a huge height difference between Tony and Du Xiaoshuai, Tony was really Du Xiaoshuai's pain before Du Xiaoshuai's ball handling became the best in the league.
Anyway, Wayne remembered that when he used to watch the game, whenever the Thunder and Grizzlies met in the playoffs, Durant would get nothing.
Teacher Tony, those wonderful scenes of defending Durant can be edited into a highlight reel.
Although Tony can't lock Durant in every game, he can occasionally make Durant behave abnormally in a few games, and then restrict Durant's performance throughout the series and prevent him from doing whatever he wants. It's already great.
After all, the opponent is a scoring champion, and it is impossible for a scorer of this level to be completely guarded by someone.
Even if it is just a restriction, it is already not easy.
It seems that Tony is full of energy when faced with Du Xiaoshuai's title of scoring champion.
Speaking of which, Du Xiaoshuai only narrowly defeated this year's scoring champion.
He averaged 27.7 points per game this season, while Wayne averaged 27.4 points per game, and the difference was less than one point.
After last season, only Wayne and Durant averaged 30 points per game in the league. This season, Durant and Wayne are also the only two players averaging 27 points per game.
Counting down, Mousse is averaging 26.7 points per game, and Angua is averaging only 25.6 points.
If this season, especially in the second half of the season, the juniors were not so good, Wayne would have won the scoring title twice in a row.
Don't look at the elementary school student's average points per game this season, which is still less than 20, only 19.6.
But his performance after the All-Star Game is completely different from his performance before the All-Star Game.
Ever since Wayne had a heart-to-heart talk with him, the elementary school student had completely relaxed.
Therefore, in the second half of the season, Wayne rarely had explosive scoring performances.
Curry, on the other hand, scored 41 points against the Warriors.
However, Wayne would rather Curry grow up.
The scoring champion is nothing. It’s not because of Wei Ge’s expansion. As long as he wants, he can become the scoring champion at any time.
But the scoring title does not mean victory, nor is it Wayne's goal.
He is more eager to win actual honors than the title he has already won.
But it would not be possible without the rise of primary school students.
Although he missed out on the scoring title, Wayne still won the title of blocking title.
Wayne averaged 2.7 blocks per game this season, and he also has to thank the elementary school students.
This year, the player who ranks second in blocks per game, but you may not believe it, is Bodog, who averages 2.6 blocks per game.
As the saying goes, a good dog doesn't block shots. It can be seen from this that Goute doesn't even understand how to be a dog.
Nothing more to say, I hope Bodog can bear all the pain for the injured players.
The remaining Ibaka, McGee and Beast all averaged 2.4 per game.
As for the last player who averaged 2 blocks per game this season, you may still not believe it, but he was Wayne's former younger brother Milicic.
Winning the shot-blocking title for the second consecutive season, Wayne also completed the task of breaking the upper limit of the blocking attribute.
Now, attributes can continue to be added.
Wayne also opened the system interface, preparing to use up the remaining four points-adding opportunities from the last time.
Because there are only 4 points, if you add them separately, the effect will not be obvious.
Therefore, Wayne gave all four opportunities to interference shots and increased the attributes of interference shots to 74.
The competition in the playoffs this season is so fierce and the opponents are so strong.
This means that Wayne, as the absolute core of the Trail Blazers, may face a whole game without a few perfect shooting opportunities later in the game.
Whether it is the Lakers, Mavericks or Warriors, their defensive capabilities are extremely strong.
They would never let Wayne have his way.
At this time, Wayne's ability to score goals in defense is very much tested.
After completing the last upgrade before the start of the playoffs, Wayne is waiting for the playoffs to start tomorrow.
Because the Trail Blazers are third in the Western Conference this year, they will appear on the first day of the playoffs.
At the same time, the game between the Trail Blazers and the Thunder is also the only matchup in the Western Conference on the first game day of the playoffs.
Wayne stood up and did not interrupt Tony to study Durant's game video.
Since this year's playoffs are so fierce, the first round must be over as quickly as possible!
I'm sorry, Du Xiaoshuai, in this year's playoffs, you may not get any shots, and you have to say goodbye to the fans.
On April 16, the NBA playoffs officially started.
In the first game that ended first, the Bulls led by Rose easily defeated Angua's Knicks.
Angua went to New York for the championship, but in the end he may find that he may not go further in New York than he did with the Nuggets.
After that, the game between the Heat and the Hawks also started, but before the result of the game came out, Wayne had to be busy with his own game.
It’s the playoffs again, and everyone on the Trail Blazers is very excited.
Among them, there are people such as Dragic and Birdman who have won championships. They all hope that the team can restore its glory.
And someone like Curry who has never tasted a championship is even more excited. He is extremely eager to wash away the shame of eight points in a single game in the playoffs.
Wayne is relatively calm. He has played in the finals three times, and he has even seen scenes like the Olympic finals.
Why does it matter to fight a thunder?
Therefore, Wayne was not particularly excited today, as if he was preparing for an ordinary game.
So does my sister-in-law. He, Wayne and Tucker are the only three players on this team who played together when they won the first championship.
Well, Tucker is also a hidden veteran figure.
Moreover, in the Trail Blazers, the sister-in-law herself rarely takes the initiative to encourage everyone.
That was Wayne's job, so he could be his helper.
Ever since, Tony always felt that something was missing today.
So, before everyone was about to appear, Tony approached Wayne and said, "Aren't you going to say a few words today?"
"Huh? That's right, I almost forgot. Emmm, why don't you come?" Wayne and Tony have known each other for a long time, so Wayne knows all about Tony.
For Wayne, this game was nothing special.
But for Tony, who is about to face the scoring champion, this game is of great significance.
So, he must be very excited too. And this excitement needs a window to vent.
Besides, Tony has always been the leader of the atmosphere team in the locker room. In the Trail Blazers locker room, Tony is the only player who has the ability to motivate his teammates, except Wayne.
"Okay, I'm more than willing to do it for you!" Tony didn't pretend to refuse. He quickly walked to the middle of the dressing room and clapped his hands.
Tony's status in the locker room is still very high, after all, he is the founder of the Tony Clause.
So after he clapped his hands, the locker room instantly became quiet, and everyone joined in.
"Hey, I know we've been through a long, hard season. But I think you all know that the real battle is just beginning at this point.
Last year, we failed. This year, we have to do something special!
It’s all about mindset and it’s all about heart and soul. Keep fighting and never give up! "
"Keep fighting and never give up!" After Tony finished speaking, everyone yelled after him.
Wayne smiled, a little guilty.
After Tony's encouragement, everyone in the Trail Blazers rushed onto the court excitedly.
Not long after everyone came on the stage, the young talents of the Thunder also made their debut.
Wayne looked at Du Xiaoshuai and looked at each other.
Although the young coach is very smart, he keeps telling himself: "I am the scoring champion, I must stand up!"
So, Du Xiaoshuai squinted his eyes, raised his head slightly, and pretended to be a boss.
"Wei, just attack with peace of mind today. What I can do is put pressure on KD every second during the 24 seconds he attacks!"
Tony was also looking at Durant at this time, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Wayne wouldn't doubt a word he said.
Tony is a man with a very high fighting spirit. Now that he has said this, he will definitely fight to the death with Du Xiaoshuai.
Du Xiaoshuai, Du Xiaoshuai, don’t blame Brother Wei for being ruthless.
Today, it’s really not Brother Wei that I want to mess with you.
You've caused trouble, you've caused big trouble!
Before the game started, what people discussed the most was naturally the competition for the scoring champion.
"This season, Durant can finally remove the word 'local' from his title of scoring champion. He finally surpassed Wayne and became the serious scoring champion.
But Wayne is actually not far away from the scoring title. In the first round of the playoffs, the top two scorers met, which was extremely eye-catching.
Bill, do you think KD can be the scoring leader on the offensive end in this series? "
"Of course, KD is a very big threat on the offensive end. If the Trail Blazers want to win the series, they must contain Durant's offense."
Bill Walton was praising Durant, but actually he was laughing inwardly.
Do you still want to be the scoring champion under Wayne's defense? How many peanuts are there to drink like this!
Before the game started, the Thunder generals danced on the sidelines, looking very relaxed.
But it’s easy to see from KD’s stiff dancing posture that he was actually quite panicked.
"My good brother, we are going to do something big today! If we can defeat the Trail Blazers, we will be famous all over the United States!" Westbrook jumped and shouted at Du Xiaoshuai.
Du Xiaoshuai thought to himself, if you can stop being crazy during the game, we might really be famous all over the United States.
Damn, the last time you lost to the Trail Blazers, you made 1 of 7 three-pointers. It really made my scalp numb!
"Of course, my brother! Come on, let's create glory together!" Although Du Xiaoshuai was complaining in his heart, Du Xiaoshuai still enthusiastically high-fived Mr. Gui on his face.
Otherwise, how can we call it a sinister person?
The game is about to begin, and countless fans are paying attention to this game between the old team VS the new generation, the first VS second in the scoring list.
Of course, in the eyes of American fans, this is also an opportunity for KD to avenge his humiliation after last year's World Championships humiliation.
Scott Brooks is not a coach who is good at changing formations, so the Thunder's starting lineup is still the same-Gui Shao, Sefolosha, Xiao Shuai, Ibaka and Perkins.
Durant admitted he was a little nervous.
But he believes that as long as he scores immediately after playing, this nervous feeling will disappear.
The referee walked to the center circle and threw the orange basketball high.
The playoff journey has officially begun!
Perkins won the offensive ball for the Thunder. Westbrook quickly dribbled the ball across half court and then handed the ball to Durant who ran up.
In the first round, the scoring champion will show off his talents!
However, to everyone's surprise.
The one guarding Durant was neither Wayne nor Warrior Jackson, but the 1.93-meter-tall Tony Allen!
"Humph, are you crazy?" Brooks laughed disdainfully. Tony Allen's defensive ability is strong, Brooks admitted.
But with such a huge height difference between the two of them, no matter how good their defensive skills are, it's useless!
Durant was also stunned for a moment, but soon he dribbled around Ibaka's screen.
At this time, everyone thought Wayne would switch to Durant.
However, Tony immediately bypassed the wall of people looking at Ibaka and chased after Durant.
"Oh my God!" Du Xiaoshuai took a look and realized that you are looking for a shot!
I am the scoring champion.
Who are you looking down on?
Seeing that Tony was still defending him, Durant took the screen and shot a jump shot directly from outside the three-point line.
Since you have this hobby, I will give you a warm look!
Durant raised the basketball and took a jump shot.
As a result, Tony jumped up without any delay and straightened his arms.
"Snapped!"
Blocked Durant's jumper from beyond the three-point line!
"I'll go! Tony blocked Durant's shot! How did he do it!?"
Everyone was surprised. In the NBA, it is indeed common to cover layups and dunks.
But it is very rare to directly block a shot, especially a player with a high release point like Durant.
"This is crazy"
Du Xiaoshuai was still confused, but Tony had already taken off for the second time and actively held the ball.
Then Tony counterattacked with the ball!
Du Xiaoshuai reacted and chased forward with all his strength. He didn't want to lose so many people at a glance.
No matter what, Tony cannot score this goal!
Wayne followed closely behind, running wildly.
If this ball was a fast break from Wu Sheng, Wayne would have just stood there and waited to celebrate.
but.
It's Tony who has the ball!
You never know how Tony's fast breaks are going to end.
Tony originally wanted to do a cool dunk, but then he thought about it. He was going to fight KD for a whole game, so it was better to save some energy.
So in the end, Tony chose a layup.
"Ah don't."
Before Wayne could say anything, Tony's layup hit the side of the basket.
Tony's ultimate secret. Missing an overhead layup!
"Fuck!" Tony himself was confused, why did this happen again!
Durant got the rebound and almost fainted from laughing.
God helps me, God helps me!
"Ouch!" Du Xiaoshuai didn't yell for long before Tony counterattacked on the spot and snatched the ball back from him.
Durant's ball was cut off before he could warm it up.
After stealing the ball, Tony immediately made another layup. Durant raised his arm slightly to interfere, but the interference was not big.
For a normal person, this ball would most likely be scored.
But under Du Xiaoshuai's slight interference.
The basketball was knocked out of the frame again!
"This is crazy!" Carlisle on the sidelines was convinced. Tony's layup attributes must be negative!
This time, the rushing Wayne just grabbed the rebound.
Durant also immediately pounced on Wayne.
Wayne didn't hesitate and passed the ball to Tony who was left open under the basket.
A layup under the basket, he should be able to score!
Tony caught the basketball and made another layup.
But as soon as he threw the basketball, Ibaka flew out and gave Tony a nail-biting block.
"Still not, Tony missed three consecutive layups!" When Bill Walton said this, he wondered if he was watching an amateur basketball game.
But should I say it, Tony is really lucky.
After the ball hit the backboard, it fell into Tony's hands again!
Tony hurriedly threw the ball towards the basket for the fourth time. The basketball bounced on the basket twice, and then...
Break out of the box again!
This time, Ibaka protected the basketball, and the Trail Blazers' offense was finally over!
"What the hell!" Tony covered his head with his hands, and even a fast break layup was beaten by himself. It was really embarrassing.
Good guy, Wayne called him a good guy,
Missing four consecutive layups is something not everyone can do.
As expected of you!
Ning's attack was so damn authentic, it seemed to take Wayne back to his previous life when he was playing ball in middle school.
A bunch of people gathered around the basket and scrambled, making everyone fall on their backs, but no goal was scored.
Carlisle on the bench was dumbfounded. Even if I stepped in, I could have scored on that ball just now!
The fans in front of the TV were laughing so hard that Tony's overhead layup was the same as Curry's dunk. They were two of the league's greatest offensive skills.
Speaking of which, it is not easy for a small pioneer team to have Tony and Curry at the same time.
The 10 seconds that just passed were undoubtedly the most embarrassing 10 seconds in Tony's career.
Wayne wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
Well, although Tony's 0-for-4 in 10 seconds just now was a bit embarrassing, but should I say it, his previous shot against Durant was really beautiful.
So Wayne specially encouraged Tony: "It doesn't matter, I just had bad luck just now!"
Tony nodded and said nothing.
He was so ashamed that he exploded!
But this full sense of shame quickly turned into motivation.
I don't know about offense, but...
I won’t let you, the scoring champion, understand either!
Durant ran across half court again, and he was still defended by the offensive wizard Tony Allen.
Tony's anger level has been fully accumulated, and he is just waiting to do a good job on the defensive end.
Before Durant could catch the ball, he was tightly entangled by Tony.
No matter how hard he ran, he just couldn't get rid of Tony, who had just made a fool of himself.
Ibaka received the ball in the high post. He originally wanted to pass the ball to Durant and then continue to play pick-and-roll with him.
But Tony pressed so hard that Ibaka couldn't pass the ball at all.
As the scoring leader this season, Durant does whatever he wants most of the time.
It was the first time that I was prevented from catching the ball like today.
At this time, Wayne suddenly reached out and knocked the ball out of Ibaka's hand.
Then, Wayne held the ball on a fast break and succeeded with a tomahawk chop.
Carlisle let out a big sigh, Wayne was calling this a fast break.
Tony's incident just now almost gave Carlisle a cerebral hemorrhage.
Finally, Wayne broke the scoring drought in this game.
Wayne did not celebrate after the dunk, but ran over and gave Tony a high-five.
"Well defended."
"Wonderful dunk!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, then resumed their stance.
The Oklahoma City trio faced off against the Trail Blazers in the playoffs.
Little did they know, what they met was the first generation of two young masters from Ohio!
One attack and one defense, invincible!
