This Forward is Not Serious

"If God wears a Kansas jersey, kill God!"

This was what Lin Ying thought before the match.

Now, he's actually doing it!

The three-pointers that are so hot to the touch, the extreme to perfect execution, and the No. 1 seed in the Central and Western District can fully explain the strength of this University of Kansas.

However, they have pulled out all the Italian cannons, but they just can't hit Lin Ying's wall!

Until the fifth attempt, Chalmers finally scored the ball with a difficult throw.

However, the 5th time!

It's numb!

"Charles, do you think this style of play is similar to the Suns?"

Kenny Smith finally couldn't bear it at this time.

Since D'Antoni took over and Nash joined, the Suns have started to bombard.

Stoudemire, who originally played the 4th position, gained weight and played the 5th position, and Marion, who originally played the 3rd position, also changed to the 4th position.

The height is decreasing and the speed is increasing.

Especially after Boris Diaw joined, the quality of their defensive counterattack has been improved to a higher level.

The current style of play of the University of Texas is very similar!

"No, that Stoudemire guy doesn't have that kind of defensive ability."

Barkley immediately complained.

Although he was born in the 76ers, Barkley prefers to call himself a Sun star because he reached the peak of his career in the Suns.

So no one knows the Suns better than him.

Stoudemire's nickname "Little Overlord" is indeed worthy of the offensive end, but the defense is really eye-catching.

He thought that his defense back then was bad enough, but Stoudemire refreshed his perception.

Not to mention anything else, if Stoudemire had Lin Ying's defensive ability, the Suns would have returned to the Finals long ago.

NBA cold knowledge Stoudemire's 2002 rookie body side barefoot height 204.5.

And he said just one thing.

The Suns can run fast because of Nash's engine, and the positional battle can also rely on Nash's go-between to play a subtle coordination.

For the University of Texas, it relies entirely on defensive counterattacks, and the positional battle is a triangle tactic.

Although they are both fast, they can be said to be completely different in style of play.

If you have to make an analogy to an NBA team, the University of Texas is more similar to the Nuggets.

George Karl's oppressive defense and high-speed counterattack are also unique in the NBA.

"But now I know who Lin's template should be in the NBA."

Following Barkley's topic, Barkley talked about another thing.

Finding templates is also one of the narrator's favorite things to do.

Not only because this kind of thing is topical, but also if the player's development is really like the template he gave, then it will be a great source of bragging in the future.

Of course, finding a template is not something that can be done with just one mouthful.

It has to be reasonable, and you have to know how to avoid pitfalls.

Still talking about Lin Ying, this kind of technical characteristics, plus not being black, can easily make people think of a person.

Larry You deserve to use me as a template Bird.

Because he is white, and his physical fitness is far behind Jordan and others, many people's understanding of Bird is also quite different.

13-year career, 12 All-Star games, 9 best first teams, 3 defensive second teams (outrageous), 3 regular season MVPs (three consecutive), 2 FMVPs, 1 AMVP, 3 three-point shooting contests Champion (three in a row).

The peak season of career data was the 1987-88 season: 29.9 points, 9.3 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.6 steals per game.

The three hit rates are: 52.7%, 41.6%, 91.6%.

Career averages: 24.3 points, 10 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.7 steals per game.

The three shooting percentages are: 49.6%, 37.6%, 88.6% (5th in NBA history).

It is important to know that the era in which Byrd lived was around the 90s, and the data is not very watery.

Jordan made a big splash when he first entered the league, but he was blocked by the Pistons and couldn't make it to the finals. In terms of honor, he was overwhelmed by Bird.

It can be said that if it wasn't for his premature retirement due to a back injury, and he would play for another 5 to 8 years, Bird would be the number one small forward in history, competing with Jordan for goat.

What, what does goat mean?

Greatest.of.All.Time, literal translation: the best in history.

Therefore, Bird is also considered by the industry as one of the template cancers.

Because with his physical fitness, let alone a similar performance by another person, he can't get close.

So far, two have been based on Bird, one is the 1997 No. 2 pick Van Horn.

That's right, it's the one mentioned earlier that took Ma Jian's starting position at the University of Utah.

Horn also had 21.8 points and 8.5 rebounds in his peak season.

Sorry, that was brushed out.

Whether in terms of efficiency or court influence, there is no comparison between the two.

The other is last year's No. 2 pick, Adam Morrison.

It's the long-haired, retro-looking player who faded out of the league early because of diabetes.

Therefore, players who use Bird as a template must end up with nothing good.

It is naturally impossible for Barkley to use Bird as a template for Lin Ying.

"Shawn Marion."

Barkley then gave his answer.

Because Kenny Smith mentioned the Suns, Barkley thought of Marion.

Marion is 2.01 meters tall and has a wingspan of 2.21 meters. He is nicknamed "Gibbon".

He has played for the Suns for 6 seasons in his career, averaging 18.3 points, 9.8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.3 blocks per game.

Has defense, can rebound, can pass, can shoot three-pointers.

What, you didn't know Marion could shoot threes?

It is impossible for a player in the Suns in this era to not know it!

Since the 2002-03 season, he has averaged more than 4 three-pointers per game, which is about the same number as Nash.

Moreover, his accurate season hit rate reached 38.7%, and he shot more and more accurately.

As for the later stages of his career in history, like Draymond Green, his three-point ability has degenerated to almost nothing.

Even in terms of style of play, Lin Ying is now very close to Marion.

The ball is rarely held, and the offensive scoring mainly consists of several parts: fast break, air cut, rebound and second offense.

The only difference is that Marion's overall strength is stronger than Lin Ying's, and Lin Ying's passing ability is better.

But these differences are all comparisons made in different leagues.

Whether Lin Ying's passing can perform so well in the NBA, whether he will grow up to be better than Marion, these are unknowns.

At least from these perspectives, Marion is a reasonable template for Lin Ying.

"Lin is more than 6'7."

Kenny Smith reminded again.

"I think his template should be Lamar Odom."

The template guessing conference has officially started.

"No, Kenny, Lamar is a forward who is good at handling the ball. Compared to him, I still think Sean is more suitable."

Barkley immediately countered.

These two have to fight every time they comment, and it's really professional if they don't fight.

But don't worry, when O'Neal retires, someone will have a real fight with Barkley.

After they chatted, the first half of the game was over.

The University of Texas ended the half with a 32-22 lead over the University of Kansas.

From the score, you can understand why the two people in the live broadcast are so free to talk about templates.

Because after the half court is basically fighting each other to defend.

Here Kansas can't break through Lin Ying's wall, and they don't want to watch the score being drawn, what should they do?

You can only fight defensively!

After all, a team known for its execution ability really puts its main energy into defense. It is not so easy for the University of Texas to easily play a defensive counterattack.

Moreover, Lin Ying also exposed a weakness at this stage.

His dribbling ability is not enough.

It’s okay to move in three steps, but it’s easy to be damaged if you move too much.

This also makes him rely more on the running positions of his teammates in defensive counterattacks.

If a teammate is stuck and cannot run out, then even if he has a pass, he has no chance to pass.

If he really enters the NBA this year, then this is where he must improve this summer.

Because the NBA's retreat awareness and retreat speed are much stronger than the NCAA.

That kind of quarterback-style passing looks cool, but there won't be many opportunities.

It is more about taking the ball for a fast break, then shortening the passing route, and waiting until the teammates run out of opportunities.

Fortunately, as long as you are willing to practice a lot, you can basically practice dribbling, it's just a matter of time.

You must know that even Yao Ming has such a coquettish operation such as fast break and change hands. gif.

As for some Golden State Irving and Hugh City Dirk who dribbled and smashed their feet, or even dribbled and slid, there are only a very few and very few rounds, so let's not list it for the time being.

Let's talk about the game again. Although the fight was fierce, it was quite good for the University of Texas to have a 10-point lead at halftime.

Especially if this defensive battle continues, the 10-point advantage will become very large, and even become an insurmountable moat.

Back from the halftime break, the two teams returned to the field.

The University of Kansas took the lead in the second half.

Well, the University of Texas still defends the 3-2 zone defense!

University of Kansas, didn't hit the basket!

Lin Ying used half of the game to prop up the inside defense of the University of Texas, and also left a shadow in the hearts of the University of Kansas players.

The Italian guns couldn't move, so the fool continued.

Rush made a three-pointer against James' defense from the bottom corner.

It was very similar to the ball he shot Abrams in the face in the first half.

It's just that although there is a Si in the name, James' defensive ability is much stronger than Abrams.

Rush made a three-pointer after being interfered.

Durant protected the defensive rebound.

It's just that this time before Durant passed the ball, Rush jumped directly at him.

At the same time, Wright also made up for Lin Ying to interfere with his pass with his arm.

Cowan, Chalmers and Robinson quickly retreated to the half court.

The University of Texas successfully pushed the ball into the frontcourt in the end, but their defensive counterattack failed!

This wave of textbook defense caused a restlessness among the Texas fans at the scene.

"Kenny, this team, this Kansas team, I dare say they will become the NCAA champions within the next two years!"

Barkley's "big mouth" attribute was triggered.

But just like the previous wave of Jordan metaphysics, there are many reasons for Barkley's daring to make such rhetoric.

Since the beginning of the regular season, he has commented on the University of Kansas game for the third consecutive game.

From player talent to execution, and even the ability of the head coach, this University of Kansas already has all the characteristics of a championship team.

So it is not so much that he has a "big mouth", it is better to say that he is bold.

If Lin Ying heard it, she would definitely like Barkley's prediction, because it won't take two years, it will be next year.

But in fact, even if Barkley's prediction is correct, not many people will know, and even if they know, they will not publicize it.

What is there to advertise when Barkley is right? Being slapped in the face is worth talking about!

The University of Texas failed to make a defensive counterattack and was forced to move into position.

And Self continued to show his strength, he didn't let Cohen defend himself!

His current defensive strategy is that even if Lin Ying is on the outside, the center will not go out, but use the striker to make up.

This trick is the same as the defensive strategy in the future small ball era.

In the history of Self, he was selected into the NBA Hall of Fame in 2017. This kind of operation is not surprising.

Moreover, such a defensive strategy is very effective, at least guaranteeing the defense at the basket without giving Lin Ying the chance to make a three-pointer from the outside.

only……

This defensive method is like handing an exciting little movie to Durant.

comfortable.

This defensive method in which the center does not go out to make up for the striker is very good, but it also has its natural disadvantages.

That is, if you make a substitution, it will inevitably mean that there will be a dislocation on the court.

For example, at this moment, the person who defends Durant at the basket becomes Cowan.

After Durant settled down and took two steps outside, Cowen couldn't keep up.

Then, Kevin Durant, the mid-range killer, went online!

Someone went to specifically count Durant's technical statistics in his first season in the NBA, and found that 58% of Durant's shots were made at mid-range.

Moreover, after taking a lot of shots from this position, his shooting percentage still exceeds 40%, which is higher than the league average.

What, Durant was very strong in his rookie season?

It's all caused by the media!

If a 43% hit rate is still called iron in the case of a large number of shots, a black mamba slams its venom at you.

Of course, it cannot be denied that Durant's 28.8% three-point shooting rate in his rookie season is indeed very strong, which greatly lowered his overall shooting rate.

But it is precisely because of this that it just shows how good his mid-range shooting ability is.

So in such a defensive matchup, Durant really needs to be as comfortable as possible.

In the first round, Durant received a pass from Lin Ying and steadily hit a mid-range jumper from the bottom line.

comfortable!

The fans who watched this game felt refreshed for a while.

This kind of master-to-hand competition is so interesting!

Of course, Kansas fans don't think so.

Because after this operation, not only did they not close the score, but the University of Texas opened the score again!

It's just that there is no way, this is already the limit of what Self can do.

Ever since, the second half almost became Durant's mid-range technical show.

This also allowed Barkley and Kenny Smith in the live broadcast to start the template guessing mode again.

This time they gave the same template: McGrady.

ps: There is one thing to say, Holiday is really ruthless, Sanying fought against Lu Bu, and Booker's child retreated again (Booker is pretty handsome).
