point guard light

Chapter 105

O'Neill's act of playing tricks made audiences across the United States laugh again.

Larry Brown on the sidelines couldn't help standing up when he saw Jiang Yan being beaten by Paul like this.

He was a little worried about Jiang Yan's mood, because the strategy he set up needed a point guard who calmly commanded, not a guard who got hot-headed and then fought alone with the Clippers!

Jiang Yan dribbled the ball, looked at Larry Brown standing on the sidelines, nodded, and patted herself on the head, signaling that she was calm!

Larry & Brown then slowly returned to the chair. As long as Jiang Yan is calm, then he has nothing to worry about!
Jiang Yan came to the frontcourt, rolled her eyes, and waved at Salmons, he stopped looking for the big and tall pick and roll.

The other four players on the field are Salmons, Garcia, Aldridge and Robin.

The one who can play pick-and-roll with him now is Aldridge, but the way Aldridge plays cannot consume Paul's physical strength to the maximum extent.

Therefore, he needs to cooperate with three teammates other than Aldridge!
Garcia and Salmons can't, because they are just role players of the team, and they don't have the ability to attack independently.

He gestured to Robin, who was stuck in the paint and Jordan, and then the formation of the Kings began to change!
Aldridge, Salmons, and Garcia moved to the left, one in the middle distance of the baseline, one at the top of the arc at a 45-degree angle, and one at the top of the arc in the middle!

Jiang Yan is at the top of the arc at a 45-degree angle on the right side of the court.

The 24-second attack time took eight seconds under such a formation change.

After everyone settled down, Robin stepped up and blocked Paul who was on guard in front of Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan followed Robin's position and went directly down to the middle distance position.

Facing DeAndre Jordan, it stands to reason that this is an obvious way to play big with small players, but Jiang Yan's goal is not simply to score.

Instead, while scoring, it consumes Paul's energy!

Jiang Yan let Robin settle down, but fell a little outside the three-second penalty area.

Among them, Robin and Paul naturally had a good meal to grab the position!
Paul was literally gritting his teeth and trying to get in position with Robin, but it didn't work out.

Should Robin be seated or should be seated!

After Jiang Yan saw that Robin was in a good position, she just hit the ground and passed it to Robin's hand just right, so that Paul couldn't cut it off at all!

After Robin got the ball, he used his butt to dig Paul who was messing around behind him!

And Paul is also a person who does not give up. Although he was dug out, he immediately rushed forward and pushed Robin with his arms and elbows.

Of course, this is a small trick!

But Paul has a superstar whistle, and Paul is a small man, and Robin is a big man.

In view of these factors, the referee turned a blind eye to Paul's elbow behavior!
However, Paul's elbow behavior is useless, because the two are not at the same level at all.

Pushed his ass again and pushed Paul away like a spring!
Then turn around and make a dunk!
Paul had no choice but to look at Robin who was hanging on the basket. There was really no way for him to defend!
If he could cry, he would definitely cry!
With a serious expression, Paul got the ball again and went to the bottom line to serve!In the next few minutes, the scene of the Kings singles Paul appeared on the court every other round!
Just grab your pain point, make you short, and make you the absolute core of the Clippers.

On the other side, Paul has been single-handedly chasing Jiang Yan behind him.

And the success rate is not low.

Of course, Paul will also let Griffin singles, but Griffin singles Aldridge is not effective.

Although Griffin's physical fitness is very strong, Griffin's inside singles are not, and he relies entirely on his physical fitness.

Although Aldridge is playing floatingly, his physical fitness is not bad, and he can still beat Griffin!

In the second quarter, Jiang Yan did not play, and Aminu and Thompson formed a lineup to play against the Clippers' bench lineup.

In general, the Clippers' bench lineup is four words, X**D.

Before Prince Rivers came, Doug Rivers had already made the Clippers' substitute tactics invisible!

That is to let Crawford play a superstar on the bench alone.

But one person X**D is always inferior to the Kings lineup with Thompson, a power forward who can pass the ball.

In the 8 minutes of the second segment, the score of the two teams changed from a stalemate to an eight-point lead for the Kings.

Larry Brown looked at the Kings bench with satisfaction.

The source of his confidence in the Kings' ability to enter the playoffs is that this bench lineup has as much potential as the starting lineup!
At 13 minutes and [-] seconds of the second quarter, Jiang Yan and his starting lineup played again.

As for Paul, he played as early as the 8th minute of the second quarter.

After playing, the Kings still implemented Larry Brown's defensive tactics, separating Paul and the Clippers players!
Paul is also helpless, Griffin can't beat Aldridge, other players can play, but the Kings' one-to-one defenders are doing their best to defend against the Clippers players.

Rivers has nothing to do with the current situation!

When he was coaching the Celtics, he didn't rely on his outstanding tactics, but he poured chicken soup for the soul of Garnett and others.

As for some people will say, is the Celtics able to win the championship because of chicken soup for the soul?

This is not true. The Celtics defeated the Lakers to win the championship. Looking at the finals games.

The Lakers focus on offense rather than defense, while the Celtics are better at defense than offense!
In the end, the Celtics just relied on their excellent "iron and blood" defense to win the championship that year!

And who is responsible for the Celtics' defense?
It's Thibodeau, the head coach of the Bulls now!

Rivers could only stand on the sidelines with his hands folded and watch the situation on the court.

At this time, the TNT live room also discussed the situation of the game.

"Barkley, who do you think will win this game?" O'Neal asked grinningly.

Barkley heard the words, looked at the data in his hand, then looked at O'Neal, and replied calmly: "The Kings!"

"Why?" O'Neill asked with a wide eye.

O'Neal actually prefers the Clippers to win, not because of anything else, but because Chris Paul's data has reached 23 points and 4 assists!
Paul's scoring has reached a new high, and this is only halftime. If the full-time time is doubled, it will be 46 points and 8 assists!

The score hit a new high, but the number of assists also hit a new low!
Paul's average assists per game last season was 15+, which was only one place lower than Jiang Yan's 18+ at that time. If Jiang Yan hadn't turned out, Paul would have been the assist king in the 12-13 season!

In fact, Jiang Yan's assists are not many, only 8, scoring only 6 points.

If the whole game is counted, there are also 12 points and 16 assists.

This is also in line with Jiang Yan's performance last season.

But today he didn't attack. If he really attacked, he would definitely add five to ten points to this basis!

However, Jiang Yan will not squander the offensive ball recklessly. In his eyes, a reasonable offense is far more important than statistics.

This is also the reason he realized from the position of point guard!
"That's because the Kings haven't tried their best? You see, the Clippers are all supported by Paul, so how long can he last?
A team cannot rely on only one person to win. Basketball is a team sport. Even if some teams have a core, the performance of those role players is also essential! "

O'Neill nodded, agreeing with Barkley's opinion.

Then the two seriously watched the game on the field again!
Sure enough, in the fourth quarter, the situation on the court changed suddenly.

Paul had no rest time at all in the first three quarters, and only rested for 6 minutes in the second quarter.

He is not an iron man, of course he will be tired, not to mention he is the main attacker and 'defensive vanguard' of the Clippers!
Jiang Yan could clearly see that her senior had heavy steps and shortness of breath, and her bosom bouncing up and down all showed this!

He smiled slightly, the Clippers lost!
Rivers also knew that Paul's physical strength was not enough, and he could tell from Paul's missed shots in just a few rounds!
I couldn't help but stood up and called a timeout!
"Paul, you rest!" Rivers said hoarsely.

This was caused by him always yelling on the sidelines, and it was also because he poured chicken soup for his soul to make him dumb!

"Coach, the game is not over yet!" Paul said with a heavy tone, shaking his cheeks.

If this keeps biting his cheek like this, another Flash must appear again!
After saying this, Paul turned his attention to the Kings bench on the other side.

At this time, Jiang Yan was holding a towel, chatting and laughing with Aminu who was sitting next to her, obviously very relaxed!

It can also be said that this is the Kings have definitely been able to win the Clippers!

"Di!"

While Paul was watching, the referee blew the whistle to play again!

Playing again, Paul was breathing slightly better due to the 1-minute break.

Jiang Yan looked at Paul who was dribbling over, without any carelessness. After all, the game is not over yet, so he still has to do his best to defend Paul!

Since Jiang Yan only focuses on defense, Jiang Yan's pace is obviously faster than Paul's now!
Paul broke through this time with all his strength to pass Jiang Yan, but the frustration in Paul's heart became more and more serious!
As a superstar, he knows this game has gone far!

The disappointment with the Clippers in my heart also emerged. After all, the outside world said the Big Three-Paul, Griffin, and Jordan.

But in fact, the real giant is only Paul. When the team is in crisis, he is the only one who will stand up. What is the difference between this and the Hornets!
However, he is still unwilling to lose to his junior with a high heart!
Next, Paul didn't pass the ball directly, showing off the offensive skills he has possessed in the NBA over the years!
But this is only the end of the battle, one bang, then decline, three exhaustion!

And when Paul was relentlessly attacking, Jiang Yan also exerted strength!

First of all, he shot a cold arrow directly on Paul's head and made a three-pointer!
In the next few rounds, when Paul was defending against his shots, Jiang Yan used her mid-level breakthrough ability to rush Paul.

Although the finishing ability at the basket was not strong at the end, after Jiang Yan broke into the inside, she could still pass the ball!
This is the same as Paul playing for the Hornets before, except that Paul didn't have three-point ability at that time!

The American audience and O'Neal were quite surprised by Jiang Yan's offensive ability in this game!

"Yiyan's organizational ability, coupled with this offensive ability, has already become a star!" Barkley said seriously after watching Jiang Yan make another three-pointer on Paul's head with a solemn expression.

O'Neill nodded.

At 112:104, the game ended, and the point difference between the two teams was [-]:[-].

The Kings won the game by eight points.

But anyone who watched the whole game knows that the Kings completely suppressed the Clippers in this game.

Only slightly worse at the guard position!
Of course, everyone understands, after all, Paul is a superstar!
In this game, Paul scored 52 points and 7 assists.

And Jiang Yan scored 26 points and 14 assists!

Although Jiang Yan's statistics are not as good as Paul's, Paul still looks at the score unwillingly, and at the same time he is helpless!
Jiang Yan had no choice but to comfort Paul with a playful smile, and then participated in the post-match interview!

During the interview, people from both sides were boasting about each other's players, and the atmosphere was very harmonious!
But Paul's 50+ still caused a sensation in the NBA!

After all, Paul is a traditional point guard, but he did something that many shooting guards cannot do!

As for Jiang Yan, it's just a few strokes of what data Jiang Yan got!
