Chapter 977 The Refreshing Second Lineup
Xie Kai and Paojiao left the field, and the Hornets breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, they didn't have to face these three terrible guys together for the time being.
Robertson improved his jump shot last season, as well as cutting off the ball and stealing chickens at the basket, but he is still a player with poor autonomous offensive ability, unable to digest the ball, and a person with average production and efficiency.He's still a blue-collar guy, essentially and practically.
As for Abrines, his shooting is much better than Robertson's, but his defense is far worse.He also has a bit of ball-handling ability and can do things like double-dash when he's on the court with a star.But let him open the attack, his confrontation and so on are a little weak.Like Roberson, he's just a role player, unable to average double-digit points per game.
The Hornets got a respite, and Kemba Walker led the team to catch up with a point difference, but they were still more than 5 points behind their opponents.
The Thunder's offense is poor at this stage, but their defense still maintains a high level.
Hornets coach Crawford pays great attention to the management of players' playing time. He didn't die as the main force, but put on the rotation early.
The Hornets play a 10-man rotation, with veteran Tony Parker and No. [-] pick Maggie McGee first on the bench, then Malik Monk, rookie Miles Bridges, and finally center Hernan gomez.
Xie Kai and Paojiao were replaced with 2 minutes and 29 seconds left in the first quarter.
At this time, the five players on the Thunder field are Noel, Grant, Paojiao, Robertson and Xie Kai.Replacing Kanter with Noel, it is obvious that the offensive ability of the inside line has declined, but the defense has indeed improved a lot.Originally, the team's striker had to wipe Kanter's ass on the defensive end, but now there is no need. Noll was originally a defensive center with excellent physical fitness, a typical representative of black and tough.
At this time, the score on the court was 21:16, and the Thunder temporarily led by 5 points.
Wang Meng said: "The Thunder's rotation lineup this season has lost Kanter and added Noel. What do you think, Mr. Yang?"
Yang Yi gestured with his hands and said: "Kanter is a very good offensive No. 5. He can attack with his back in the low post and can cause damage. On the offensive end, it is very difficult for an inside player to completely defend against him. He. But the problem is one-on-one. If people don’t play one-on-one with you, he is a bit slow to play the ball and will drag down the team’s overall offense. Noel is a defensive center with good physical fitness and can block shots and grab rebounds , can pick and roll and attack the frame. He is a completely different type from Kanter. After all, his low footsteps are rough, far inferior to Kanter, but his defense is much better than Kanter. In my opinion, the Thunder Replacing Kanter with him, what he loses is Kanter's low-post offense, but he also makes his defense better. The defense of this lineup is very good, and the athletes at each position are extremely good defenders. And These 5 people are all physically talented, and they can take care of both inside and outside when the defense is rotated. So I think the Thunder's replacement of Kanter will improve their defense by more than one level, and their offense will not decline, because Xie Kai and With George there, I can play pick-and-rolls and mismatches without the post."
Xie Kai slowly dribbled over and directed traffic at the top of the arc.
It was defender Monk who opened the defense.
蒙克是2017年的首轮11号新秀，上赛季在场均13.5分钟的上场时间里得到6.7分1个篮板和1.4次助攻。
Looking at this data alone, the efficiency is simply amazing!But if you really look at his statistics, you will find that his shooting percentage is less than 4%, and his efficiency is not very good.
Monk is 191cm tall and is a combo guard.A guard of this height is now very popular in the NBA. He can hold the ball and shoot, which is very in line with the current requirements for the team's No. 2 position.The previous No. 2 position either took the shooter route or the swingman route.The combo guard has only become popular in recent years. In the past, with such a height and weight, he could only play the sixth man, otherwise the starting defense would be bullied by the opponent's big swingman.
Monk is very fast, entangled Xie Kai, preventing him from easily organizing an attack.Xie Kai also knew the intention of Hornets coach Crawford, which was to let the fast and young Monk pester him and consume himself, and let the older guard Parker defend the blue-collar guard Robertson.
Xie Kai leaned against Monk with the ball, protected the ball, and then passed the ball to Robertson on the other side.
Robertson gave the ball to George, and the latter faced Bridges' defense and made a jump shot after a slapstick operation-yes!
23:16, the Thunder lead by 7 points!
Bridges is this year's rookie, and there are two Bridges in this year's rookie, because Bridges is translated as "bridge", so Chinese fans affectionately call the two of them "Bridge", The other is called "Little Bridge".
The one for the Hornets is Xiaoqiao, who was selected with the 12th overall pick in the first round this year, while the one for the 76ers is Bridge, who was selected with the 10th overall pick in the first round.
Bridge and Bridge both play the small forward position, but their technical style is completely different. Bridge is taller and has a longer wingspan, but is also thinner and more defensive. In the future, he is likely to develop in the direction of a 3D player; Bridge is more explosive. Well, the offensive ability with the ball is stronger, but the defense is worse, the lower limit is lower, and the upper limit has a chance to become an All-Star.
Old Parker slowly dribbled over and organized an offense at the top of the arc.This season is likely to be the last season of his career. Although he left the Spurs, it is safe to retire in the Holy City.As a member of GDP, the Spurs have no reason not to retire his jersey.
As a respect, Xie Kai went to defend Parker himself instead of handing him over to Robertson.
Yang Yi smiled and said: "Thank you for defending Parker, you really gave old Parker a very high courtesy. Usually, this matter is left to Robertson."
When Parker was at his peak, he was extremely fast and good at layups after turning around.Later, he developed the emergency stop middle distance to enrich his offensive arsenal.But he didn't develop a stable 3-pointer from beginning to end, which made his offensive threat not fully released.
But sometimes this can't be helped. It is impossible for a player to say that his breakthrough shots are top-notch, that is simply a monster!
Thanks - are you talking about me?
Parker passed the ball to Monk, who used the pick-and-roll to break through the small bridge in the corner.
Xiaoqiao burst again, and Noel interfered with the layup after the cut-miss!
Grant closed the board and handed it over to Xie Kai to push forward.
Xie Kai pushed forward with the ball, faced Monk, and continued to throw away ahead of time, speed up the impact, and followed up with Robertson!
Roberson makes a layup -- but no!
The follow-up Grant succeeded!
Wow--
Thunder fans in the stands cheered excitedly!
25:16, the point difference was pulled to 9 points!
