The yellow storm in the NBA

Chapter 66, Defender Master?

In terms of defensive ability, Quan Xiao's opponents in the previous games were not as good as Bruce Bowen, who he will face today. Although Kobe and Kirilenko both defended Quan Xiao in the games against the Lakers and Jazz, they were not

They were the main defense throughout the game, except for a certain period of time when they defended Quan Xiao. Of course, their defensive strength is one of the best.

However, in terms of defensive threat, in recent years perhaps no outside player in the league can surpass Bruce Bowen. Of course, this is not because he has the strongest defensive ability. There are at least several outside players with better defensive ability than him.

But the reason why he is not as threatening as him is that he is shameless and makes too many small moves, which can even destroy his opponent's career.

Back then, he stepped on Carter and was chased and beaten by Carter, which shows how much he was hated. If someone killed him, it is estimated that except for the Spurs, players and fans of other teams would applaud and celebrate.

One thing to say, except for the black spot of using small moves, Bowen's defensive ability is also worthy of praise. Being in the first team of the All-Defensive Team for four consecutive seasons is the best proof. According to the normal historical trajectory, even this

Bowen, who is 37 years old this season, was still selected to the first team, which shows his defensive skills.

Before the game, several teammates told Quan Xiao to be careful with Bowen, especially Yao Ming who repeatedly told him to pay attention to his little moves. Quan Xiao accepted the kindness of his teammates and expressed his gratitude. In fact, they did not

Quan Xiao himself would pay special attention to it, after all, the nickname "Star Killer" is not for nothing.

This game was not broadcast live across the United States, but CCTV Sports Channel broadcast the game. After Yao Ming joined the Rockets, CCTV Sports Channel broadcast their games the most. Now that Quanxiao is here, it is estimated that there will be more broadcasts in the future.

"Director Zhang, what do you think are the highlights of today's game? Which team are you more optimistic about?" Taking advantage of the gap before the game started, the host of CCTV Sports took the opportunity to ask today's guest commentator, Director Zhang Weiping.

"I think I am most concerned about these points in this game: How many points can Quan Xiao score today? How will Yao Ming's performance be? Can the defending champion limit Quan Xiao, who has been in hot form since the start of the game? Or will Spurs head coach Popovich

What tricks should I use to deal with Quan Xiao!"

"As for the outcome of the game, it's hard to say. In terms of financial strength, the Spurs are obviously better. The GDP combination is in its prime and just won the championship last season. There are no major changes in the core lineup. They are determined to defend the title.

It’s worth looking forward to what kind of strength he will unleash.”

"Relatively speaking, the Rockets' lineup has gone through a lot this year.

With the changes, more than half of the core lineup has been replaced. Relatively speaking, the level of integration is definitely not as good as that of the Spurs, but they have been in good form recently and have won 4 consecutive victories.

Especially Quan Xiao's state. Although he is a newcomer, he does not play like a newcomer at all. He looks like a superstar who has been in the league for several years. If he can still show the form of the previous games today

, then it’s hard to say the outcome of this game.”

"How does Director Zhang think the Spurs will deal with Quan Xiao today? How should the Rockets deal with it?"

"With Popovich's sophistication, I estimate that the Spurs will use Bruce Bowen for single defense today and at the same time strengthen their assist defense. Although Bowen's defensive ability is good, if he wants to freeze Quan Xiao, I don't think he can do it. Because

Quan Xiao is exactly the type that gives him the most headaches."

"So using Bowen for single defense may be to use his threat to scare Quan Xiao, or to use him to improve his mentality. We all know that Bowen is a player who makes a lot of defensive tricks. This kind of player is particularly

It is easy to irritate the players he is facing, causing them to lose their temper and affect their performance. In severe cases, it can even make them off the field."

"So the Rockets must pay special attention to this problem. Once such signs appear, they must respond immediately. Otherwise, even if it is a 1-for-1 exchange by the opponent, it will not be worthwhile. Furthermore, it depends on whether Quan Xiao can

Control your emotions, don’t be easily angered by the other party’s little moves, and don’t fall into the other party’s defensive trap.”

"I believe he should be able to do it. Judging from these games, he is a very mature player with a general style. He should be able to see through the opponent's tricks. Moreover, the veteran players and coaching staff in the team

I will definitely remind him specifically, and I believe he can solve this problem."

"Okay, the game has started. Duncan won the jump ball. The Spurs attack first. Let's see how they play this ball."

"Parker broke through with the ball, but the Rockets' defense was very good. He didn't have a good chance. The ball was transferred to Finley on the outside. Battier followed him closely, leaving him no room to shoot. Duncan wanted to go inside.

When he got to the position, Scola was obviously no match for him."

"The Spurs wanted to pass the ball to Duncan, but the ball was intercepted by Quan Xiao. The Rockets switched offense!"

"After Quan Xiao stole the ball, he held the ball and ran down quickly. He was so fast. Only Parker on the Spurs could keep up with him."

"Great shot! This shot was so beautifully smashed, it will definitely be among the top ten shots today!"

The Rockets started off with momentum, and Quan Xiao told the Spurs with a dunk that this is the Rockets' home court!"

"We can see from the fast break just now that Bruce Bowen of the Spurs can't keep up with Quan Xiao's speed. Maybe we can see a wonderful individual show today."

"Indeed! Although Bowen's personal defensive ability is very strong, we must also consider that he is 36 years old this year and his physical fitness is already in a declining stage. Although he is very experienced, it will be in vain if his body cannot keep up.

.It depends on whether Quan Xiao can seize this point and make good use of it!"

Quan Xiao's dunk also instantly heated up the atmosphere at home. The players were also stimulated by the goal, and their momentum instantly increased a lot.

Matching up with Bowen has no impact on Quan Xiao. The worries of his teammates before the game are actually completely unnecessary. As a reborn person, I watched a lot of NBA games in my previous life and saw too many dirty players like Bowen. Yes.

When it comes to understanding small moves, Quan Xiao is no worse than those old team members, and he will not suffer any disadvantages when dealing with them.

It would have been better if Bowen didn't use any bad tricks in this game. If he really wanted to use some bad tricks, then he might be the one who suffered the loss.

Even though Quan Xiao is just a rookie, his methods will definitely put many old players to shame. It’s just that he has never used it on the court, because he actually doesn’t like this style of behavior, and even

Absolutely disgusted.

The reason why I understand these is just to be able to better deal with other people's little tricks, and I will not actively use them against others. Of course, if others use little tricks to deal with me, I don't mind letting them try the little tricks.

The Spurs are worthy of being the Spurs. Quan Xiao's dunk did not affect their rhythm. Duncan then used a rebound shot to even the score difference. The two teams were once again on the same starting line.

Bowen wanted to keep up with Quan Xiao, but he was led by Quan Xiao like a dog for a walk, and he soon couldn't keep up. After all, at his age, he had rich experience, but it was useless if his body couldn't keep up with his brain.

Quan Xiao consciously led him to run, wanting to see what Bowen could do now. Unfortunately, before he could exert his full strength, the opponent could no longer hold on. At this time, the first quarter of the game

In the middle of the game, under the defense of Bowen, a defensive master, Quan Xiao made 4 of 5 shots and 3 of 4 three-pointers, scoring 11 points.

Bruce Bowen, defensive master? Without small moves, how much strength do you still have?
