Super Small Forward

Physical strength and talent are the most precious things for players. Liu Ren has always believed that, for example, Tiangou Kareem, he can still compete with Olajuwon at the age of 38 and 9 because he is tall enough and his arms The exhibition is excellent enough. If he is given the body of Hayes, even if he can fly and jump like James when he is young, he will finish playing when he is old.

Nowitzki is another example. At the age of 36 last season, he still averaged 18 points per game. Unlike Kobe, he can't run or jump, relying on his height and shooting. With so many points, except for the physical impact, as long as he plays, his contribution is no different from when he was young.

Chandler was poached by the Suns with a four-year, 52 million contract. Carlisle could only use David Lee to play center. In fact, David Lee also played the center position during the Knicks. He was not so unacceptable to the position where he once scored the All-Star.

　　 David Lee and Whiteside stood in the middle of the court.

David Lee's body is actually very wide and burly among the inside players. Standing with Whiteside on the floor area does not suffer... In addition to his height, Whiteside is almost a taller than David Lee. Head, Whiteside stepped the ball to Antetokounmpo.

　　 I had expected such a Mavericks team for a long time. When the centers of the two teams jumped the ball, the other four of the Mavericks directly returned to the defense. There was no one who could compare the confidence in David Lee.

　　 Antetokounmpo advanced to the frontcourt, Deron immediately defended, and constantly used his strong body to put pressure on Antetokounmpo.

　　 If Antetokounmpo plays a point guard, he can't do much with this kind of strength and agility, but he can only protect the ball well, so he handed the ball to Kobe.

It is Chandler Parsons who defends Kobe. Both of the Mavericks forwards are defensive masters, and they have their own characteristics. Chandler Parsons is good at using height advantage to defend, and Matthews is good at defending with strength. .

　　 So Chandler Parsons defended Kobe and Matthews defended Liu Ren.

I have to say that the elderly Kobe really suffers from defenders who are better than himself and better in speed and agility. Under the oppressive defense of Chandler Parsons, he missed his back jumper and hit the basket. The basket bounced high.

　　 But Whiteside jumped out to grab an offensive rebound from the free throw line!

When Whiteside grabbed an offensive rebound, Nowitzki and David Lee immediately caught up. The Mavericks had a very good team-defense double-teaming awareness, and the double-teaming position was very good. I didn’t give Whiteside the second one. Opportunity to attack.

At the same time, the Mavericks outside are interfering with Whiteside's passing route. Fans can't help but sigh when they see this scene. The Mavericks lineup is like this, a group of old and weak, but the discipline of playing is still strict. No wonder it is getting more and more in the West. The wild age never left behind.

　　 However, the Mavericks double-teamed Whiteside with two insides, that is, three outsides with 3 defenses and 4 defenses. At this time, Whiteside saw a familiar figure move and immediately made a decision to force a mid-range shot!

"do not……"

　　 Seeing Whiteside hit the ball! The guy who couldn't make a free throw actually made a shot. The fans on the scene hurriedly stopped, but Whiteside had already shot it.

"Crap!"

I thought that Whiteside was double-teamed and couldn't make a quick shot, and the result of the shot was as they expected, almost completely untouched, but Whiteside's striker was heavily pushed back to the basket by a man. !

　　 Liu Ren!

　　 Liu Ren walked in from the wing after Antetokounmpo's off-the-ball screen in the top arc to make a dunk for Whiteside's iron ball.

　　 The Mavericks players are also helpless. No matter how strict the defense and discipline are, they can’t hold back their strength! As long as this point guard or small forward has space to rush, they will have no chance of chasing them with their old arms and legs.

　　 Offensive and defensive conversion, Mavericks offensive.

Chandler Parsons pulled to the corner. In the 13-14 season, he averaged 16.6 points, 5.5 rebounds and 4 assists. He is regarded as another future superstar. After all, there are not many small forwards who have played this type of data in the third grade. After the Rockets gave up the team option, Mavericks owner Cuban immediately offered him a maximum salary contract that he could not refuse and the Rockets could not give.

　　 Kuban thought Chandler Parsons was a superstar in the future, but he seemed to overlook one point. Even though Parsons had only played in the NBA for three years, he was already 26 years old! In other words, it has reached its peak.

And later Chandler Parsons proved to the Mavericks with practical actions that the Rockets’ three years were his peak period. When the Mavericks came to the Mavericks, the data instantly shrank, and it was a full decline. Last season, he only contributed 15+ per game. 4+2 makes the Mavericks fans who are waiting to think that Chandler Parsons will become another 20+5+5 player after having more performance opportunities are completely dumbfounded.

Chandler Parsons looks accurate on the three-pointer, but if there is interference, he hits the iron. Only purely open can have a chance to enter. The finishing ability at the basket is extremely poor. The physical fitness is not as strong as expected. Basically, when you reach the basket, you only have to throw. Shooting and possession are not as good as imagined. Without Harden on the side to attract defense, his performance can almost be described as bad.

In fact, looking at Chandler Parsons’ performance in the Rockets era, he can understand that his rise was after Harden arrived. Without Harden, he was an ordinary substitute, because Harden attracted all defenses. Only then can he play so well and have so many open shots.

　　 And the Mavericks' outside line obviously does not have these conditions, so he will slip so much.

　　 Carlisle gave Chandler Parsons a year of patience enough. This year he completely lost his patience and directly positioned him as a gun emplacement and went to the bottom corner to open up space.

Carlisle is also really unable to do it. Chandler Parsons was dug back by his boss with the status of a superstar. In 2014, it was not when this year’s high-priced contract was flying all over the sky. He only played Chandler Parsons for three years. A three-year 45 million contract is the highest salary he can get. A player dug back with such a high salary is actually only suitable for a defensive three-pointer. The price is too high, and he has to start. With top-paid players playing off the bench, Carlisle felt he would be scolded to death by fans.

David Lee sits on the inside, and his inside singles ability is still very good. This year's first two games this year reached 71% of the close range shooting rate is indeed a great one, Whiteside did not dare to care. David Lee is really 32 years old and not too old. He was given up by the Warriors because he barely took long-range shots. In his career, he did not make more than 100 shots from outside the free throw line and beyond the three-point line. He only made 7 shots and never made a shot.

Nowitzki moved to the other corner to open up the space. His containment power was much stronger than Chandler Parsons. Green almost used a defensive defense. Everyone knew that Nowitzki received the ball with one hand. How strong is the Golden Rooster independent.

　　 Nowitzki is the older he is, the more stable he is, and he knows what role he plays best as a young man, so he has been working hard to find opportunities to shoot and open up space by the way.

Matthews also opened up the space to attract Liu Ren. His career average of more than two three-pointers per game plus a three-point percentage close to 40% is indeed very scary, from the draft counterattack to the current top. Salary is indeed a great miracle.

　　 At this time, Deron is left in the top arc singles Antetokounmpo.

　　 Just listen to these two names, Deron Williams, and third-year player Antetokounmpo.

People’s first reaction is that Deron is going to score easily again. At this stage, many people’s impressions of Deron are still Liu Ren during the Nets’ N Giants and the Jazz. Although the Nets’ N Giants did not drop very well, Deron’s performance was in it. Still very good, he was a superstar averaging 20+10 per game during the Jazz era.

　　 If you follow common sense, Antetokounmpo will definitely be blown by Deron, although everyone thinks Antetokounmpo has a very bright future.

However, due to the Nets’ sluggish season, people ignored them, and also ignored their top star Deron’s bleak 38% shooting percentage last season, otherwise a 31-year-old former superstar Nets would say Cut it?

Since then, people have seen Deron constantly wanting to force Antetokounmpo, and he was blocked by Antetokounmpo from the three-point line, with a huge body and good mobility. In addition to strength, Antetokounmpo has no advantage at all, and it is difficult even to get into the three-point line.

　　 Deron was a little annoyed, a heavy shoulder smashed Antetokounmbo into the inside, but his action was seen by the referee, and the whistle sounded decisively.

　　 Hit people with the ball!

　　 Antetokounmpo actually prevented Deron from being forced to attack for a foul! Carlisle almost didn't spout a mouthful of old blood.

In the first two games of this season, the Mavericks met the Spurs and the Grizzlies. Deron performed poorly. Both games scored only ten points, and the total number of assists was only 9. Carlisle also believed this was because of these two goals. The team's defense is too strong, and Deron will behave abnormally, but now it is difficult to see a young point guard who has not yet reached the age of 21 to defend him into the three-point line, and instantly the whole person is bad.

　　 What about getting a 31-year-old super point guard at the peak of the bargain?

This is the epitome of the Mavericks' first quarter start. No matter how hard you work on the defensive end, you can't prevent it. Deron on the offensive end is too bad. In the end, you can only use the pick-and-roll. , He couldn't play when he switched defenses in front of him. Liu Ren and Green defensively were stronger than Antetokounmpo, and with David Lee out of the pick-and-roll, the Lakers ignored him, except for the mid-shot and the basket from the free throw line. Under the score, David Lee has basically nothing else.

And Chandler Parsons... Deron never asked him to come for the pick-and-roll. He didn’t know if he had a tacit understanding of working with Howard. He learned the essence of howard’s pick-and-roll was not blocked. After receiving the ball, I also learned the trick of buttering the ball and throwing the ball to the Nets~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The loss is that Chandler Parsons did a good job defensively against Kobe on the defensive end. Kobe made only 2 of 9 shots in the first quarter, and the Lakers could not grab all the offensive rebounds no matter how strong the rebounds were. At the same time, Nowitzki struggled on the offensive end and scored 11 points on 4 of 7 shots in the first quarter. , The Mavericks were able to play only 9 points behind 16-25 in the eighth minute of the first quarter.

　　The game entered an official timeout.

　　 Carlisle, like all the coaches who played against the Lakers, started to have brain pain.

　　 The Lakers lineup is indeed terribly big, the height advantage is too obvious, these eight minutes have passed, the Mavericks have only 4 rebounds, and the Lakers have 11 rebounds, the gap is not generally large.

　　 The Mavericks' lineup is already very brisk, and there are no big centers, but David Lee is not as fast as Whiteside, and there is no speed advantage in other positions, which makes Carlisle a headache.

　　 Rebounds are at a disadvantage due to height issues. Not only that, but also the speed advantage of short height.

　　 So there are two choices in front of Carlisle. The first is to change to a big lineup. Carlisle looks at his bench... He complains a bit about why Kuban is so sloppy about Chandler? I won the championship and let Chandler go. That’s not going to be said, but last year he paid a big deal and he came back. I’m not going to say it. But why did he let him go again this year for nothing? 13 million year-old guards are now very cheap!

　　 I looked at the center substitutes Zaza Pachulia and JaVale McGee on the bench...

　　 Carlisle is heartbroken...
