Chapter 510 40+ Triple-Double
Ying Xiong's ability to play the ball is no less than that of any wing player.When he has developed a wide range of lateral transfer of the ball, double-teaming him is no longer a very wise choice.But in fact, if you can defend alone, who would like to double-team?
Originally, double-teaming was a passive choice.Of course, except for that kind of temporary partial double-teaming.Double-teaming means that in other positions, you are faced with a situation of less defense and more defense. Once the opponent transfers the ball in time, it will be a test of the speed and accuracy of the rotation. Once the rotation cannot keep up, the opponent will get an easy opportunity to attack.
The Spurs are a disciplined team.Their rotation is fast, even though the average age of the team is above the league average.
However, no matter how fast a person runs, he cannot keep up with the speed of the ball transfer.It is precisely because Yingxiong's shots are so good that the Raptors got a lot of good offensive opportunities.
Rookie Terrence Ross was a little overwhelmed at the beginning. After missing two open shots in a row, he blamed himself very much, worried that his teammates would blame him and no longer believed in himself, and did not pass the ball to himself.To his surprise, Ying Xiong, the boss of the team, still passed the ball to himself in a better position.
Terrence Ross no longer hesitated, raised the knife and finally hit a 3-pointer.And it was Ying Xiong's trust that made him extremely resolute on the offensive end, and his subsequent success rate was quite high.
The Raptors steadily controlled the rhythm of the game. On the offensive end, relying on Yingxiong's restraint, they opened up the team's offense with one point and one point.
Popovich stood on the sidelines with deep eyes, seemingly thinking about something, but did not act.The outcome of this game will not affect anything. In fact, the two teams belong to different divisions. If they meet in the playoffs, it will be in the finals.Therefore, the two teams are not the most direct competitors, and the impact of the outcome between them is not far-reaching.But the problem is that if you lose by a big score, it will definitely affect the players' self-confidence.This is why Popo is unwilling to give up the game easily.
Popovich replaced Yaodao and Dior in advance, stopped double-teaming Yingxiong, and returned to the way of Danny Green's single defense.In doing so, he has already told everyone with his actions that as witty as he is, there are times when he makes mistakes.
The Spurs' offense has picked up, but Danny Green is in front of Ying Xiong again.For Danny Green, facing his counterpart, he seems to be a piece of meat on a chopping board, and he can deal with it as he wants.
Ying Xiong's ability to read the game is very strong, which Coach Casey appreciates very much.Sometimes the coach does not need to pause to make specific arrangements, he already has a countermeasure.For such a player, no coach will not like it.
Danny Green is very painful, no defensive champion likes to be ravaged by the opponent.He is currently the one being ravaged, but he can't resist, it's really as uncomfortable as it is.
When the Raptors led the score, the players relaxed their minds, so the second team, which was beaten by the opponent in the first half, did not lose points.Lowry and other players also suffocated their energy, slamming the opponent fiercely, preventing the opponent from getting up, and successfully maintained the point difference.
In the last quarter of the game, Ying Xiong and other main players came back to take back the game, but the Spurs failed to counterattack and were finally powerless.
In the end, the Raptors defeated the mighty Spurs at home. After winning this focus battle, they have increased their winning streak to 8 games.At present, with a record of 9 wins and 5 losses, they are firmly ranked among the top 5 in the Eastern Conference. Compared with the unfavorable situation of 1 win and 5 losses at the beginning of the season, it forms a sharp contrast.
Yingxiong played 35 minutes in this game and made 24 of 15 shots, including 3 of 4 2-pointers and 8 free throws. He scored 40 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks in a 40+ triple-double The data.Since he focused on scoring this season, his assists per game are lower than last season, and this is his first triple-double this season.Of course, he was the undisputed player of the match.
Scoring high scores in this kind of focus battle, the gold content is completely different.If Ying Xiong can only get high scores in duels with strong teams, but is sluggish against strong teams, then his status as a superstar will naturally arouse doubts from others, thinking that he is watery.
After the game, a reporter asked Popovich what he thought of the team's defense today.The old man said calmly that they successfully defended Yingxiong because he "only" got 40 points + triple-double data...
The female reporter recalled the meaning of Popovich's words for a long time, and fell into deep thought...
If it is said that during the losing streak at the beginning of the season, the outside world's question for the Raptors was when to end the losing streak, then now, everyone's question has become when will the winning streak end, and who can end their winning streak.
The Raptors' next opponent is the Houston Rockets.The two teams have had constant stories since the offseason.First, the Raptors intercepted the Rockets and snatched Jeremy Lin from the Knicks; then, another deal was made between the two teams, and Kyle Lowry came to the Raptors.
Of course, the Rockets are not without gains this offseason. Through a trade, they got the "Best Sixth Man"-James Harden, one of the "Three Young Thunder".In addition to Harden, they also used a poison contract to get Turkish center Asik from the Bulls.
James Harden is 196cm tall and weighs more than 100kg. He is a powerful No. 2 player.He has an excellent ability to break through and score with the ball, and his European step technique is unparalleled.His greatest strength is his ability to draw fouls, which becomes more difficult to guard as a left-handed player.In addition, he also has a high ball quotient, excellent passing vision and the ability to organize offenses that ordinary 2 players do not have. He is an extremely versatile player.
Of course, his shortcomings are not without. First of all, he is an extremely ball-loving player, and his performance with the ball and without the ball is very different. This is also an important reason why the Thunder put him in the sixth man position; Offensively, his defense is too ordinary, except for top man, it is passable, off-ball defense, defensive enthusiasm and position selection are all problematic; third, his physical fitness is still better than that of top wing players. It seems a little ordinary. The height of 6cm is barely enough for the No. 2 player, but against the No. 3 player, he will suffer in size.He doesn't have great speed or jumping ability, which makes it difficult for him to match up with top wings.
The coach of the Rockets is Kevin McHale, who is called "refrigerator" by Chinese fans.McHale was a top 50 star in the NBA when he was a player, but as a coach, his resume was not impressive enough. He was ridiculed for only "X**D" tactics, and his stomach was empty.
