The Thunder's core tactic is to pinch the ball holder on the line, use high pressure to create opponents' mistakes, and wait for an opportunity to complete the counterattack. However, this tactic will hardly have any effect when facing the Nets. Stevens arranged multiple contact points in a targeted manner, coupled with Teodosic's experienced handling of the ball, not only could the Thunder not successfully complete the pressure, but it was extremely easy to leak gaps, allowing the Nets to The team scored easily.

Although Westbrook's statistics are good-looking, when he faces the Nets, he lacks the ability to change the Nets' defense. Forcibly killing the basket, the tall and long-armed Porzingis has a strong interference with him. While free from the perimeter, Westbrook's shooting threat is not enough. Except for occasionally suppressing Teodosic with his back and advancing to the three-second zone to shoot, he really has no good means to stop the bleeding for the team.

To be honest, for the Nets, Westbrook is easier to deal with than Harden.

In the third quarter of the game, the gap between the two sides has widened. Westbrook's mentality has further problems, his actions are getting bigger and bigger, and he has repeatedly challenged the players of the Nets.

I don't know if the league intends to praise Westbrook. In another attack, Westbrook hit Teodosic's face three times from receiving the ball, and until the end of the attack, the referee did not call a foul. This directly angered Stevens. He chased and scolded the female referee of this game directly from the sidelines. His image was not at all like his usual calm appearance.

What's even more exaggerated is that the female referee who was reprimanded by Stevens did not respond. I don't know if she simply relaxed the whistleblowing scale or knew she was wrong.

Of course, netizens are talented, and directly stated the real reason.

"Female referee: He finally scolded me!"

"Gorgeous looks really do whatever they want!"

"Young Marshal is also so handsome when he scolds others."

"Westbrook triples Teodosic!"

This season, the Thunder have made every effort to build a lineup around Westbrook. The statistics of Westbrook, who has the most ball possessions in the league, are very exaggerated, and it can even be said to be a bit abnormal. Send it to the top three positions on the MVP list. But this does not mean that his ability can be ranked in the top three in the league. The rankings in the mouth of the fans are mostly in the top three of Curry, James, and Durant. Harden and Leonard are also in Westbrook. above. In this game, Westbrook had nothing to do with Teodosic, and was beaten by Teodosic's IQ on the defensive end, which could easily lower his reputation.

At this time, it is actually a test of the media's ability to create momentum. If you can get the support of the league and the media, it's not a black fart. On the contrary, this game will be labeled as "brave and foolish".

Despite the referee's conscious protection, the Nets' sudden increase in strength and targeted tactics brought the gap between the two sides to 19 points after three quarters. It also made the fourth quarter of the game basically garbage time. However, in the fourth quarter, the Thunder resolutely refused to give up. Westbrook continued to go into battle, fighting desperately with the Nets. And at the beginning of the fourth quarter, they successfully completed a wave of 14:3 attacks, narrowing the point difference to 8 points.

At the critical moment, Joe Johnson made two consecutive mid-range and long-range shots. Robertson, whose offensive ability was slightly greater than zero, also cut to the basket and dunked against Kanter. The Nets opened the gap again.

To be on the safe side, Stevens replaced Leonard and George again, and reaped the entire game steadily.

The final score was fixed at 136:121, and the Nets won at home.

Teodosic contributed 7 points, 4 rebounds and 12 assists in the game, the data is amazing enough. However, his role on the field is not yet reflected by the data. If you don't look at Excel, but watch the game. It is not difficult to conclude that Teodosic played Westbrook with 36+9+11 several times in this game. This is where the data is deceiving.

After Jessica gave birth, Jiang Mingliang needed to spend more time taking care of the family, so the frequency of coming to Barclays Center was greatly reduced. Today, I brought my wife and sister-in-law to the stadium together, and enjoyed a high-quality victory, and Teodosic, who was brought to the Nets by himself, performed well and made him look good. After the game, ESPN’s The reporter also specially found Jiang Mingliang who was about to leave the stage, and expressed his willingness to interview.

"The team contributed a very exciting game, Milos' performance is impressive, not only the statistical contribution, but more importantly, he led the team's offense well and made his teammates more comfortable. What we need is players on the court to do the right thing. When you have the ball in your hands, it is not easy to perform well, but there are more times in a game when the ball is not in your hands. What did you do? This is the difference between a good player and an ordinary player.” When Jiang Mingliang praised Teodosic, he also ridiculed Westbrook, and clearly pointed out that Westbrook, whether it is running off the ball on the offensive end Or the performance on the defensive end is not good.

Curry has been out for at least two months this season, and the possibility of minor injuries due to Teodosic's performance is not ruled out. The possibility of competing for the MVP is zero. Jiang Mingliang has no need to insinuate Westbrook like this. But in the game, Westbrook's attitude was that he was constantly causing trouble, constantly fighting against the players of the Nets, and even made great moves in the game. Jiang Mingliang didn't take advantage of the situation to say a few words. Odosic.

If someone really cares about Westbrook's game, it is not difficult to detect his defensive problems. After so many games in the season, Westbrook will always dig for the team's defense in the choice of defense after the pick-and-roll. False, and his scoring assist rate is also frighteningly low. Why, firstly, the ball is concentrated in his own hands, and secondly, because he really can't run without the ball.

When Jiang Mingliang and his two wives returned home from the Barclays Center, there was already a dispute over his remarks on the Internet. One fan agreed with Jiang Mingliang’s remarks. The performance of holding the ball is very important, but the performance of not having the ball is the same. Important, but the fans on the other side sprayed Jiang Mingliang with sour words and belittled Westbrook, purely because they were worried that Westbrook's good performance would threaten Curry's position as the number one point guard.

"I don't believe it anymore, give Westbrook to the current Nets, Jiang Mingliang will not!"

"Young Master, it's okay to sell tickets!"

"A point guard averaging 29 points and 11 assists per game, we will call it an MVP level point guard, a center averaging 29 points and 9 rebounds per game, we will call it an MVP level center, so a player averaging 29 points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists per game People shouldn't be questioned because of what someone says."

"Curry has his own way of influencing the game, and so does Westbrook~"

Jiang Mingliang will not participate in the debate on the Internet. Right now, he is still focusing more on the Nets.

So far in the season, the problem of the team's power forward position is still obvious. Yi Jianlian, Landry, and West have served as the team's starting power forward respectively, but their respective problems are obvious. Reinforcement is a must. of. The team's expectations for the position of power forward, first of all, is the defensive ability to assist defense and the ability to open up space on the offensive end. It is best to have both mobility. Jiang Mingliang's ideal choice is the rookie of the Raptors Siakam, although the player himself is still relatively immature, but well cultivated, there is a high room for improvement. It's just that Ujiri's side is not an opponent who communicates well. He has always believed in the principle of "three years for rookies", and will not easily release potential stocks. As for others, Derek Williams of the Heat may be able to gamble on his potential. After the 11-year No. 2 pick came to the league, he has not found a suitable position. This season, he joined the Heat with a one-year contract of 5 million. , The degree of integration is also average. It is rumored that Pat Riley is willing to trade him in exchange for some assets.

After a while, crisp footsteps sounded outside the door, from far to near, and stopped at the door, very quickly. There was a knock on the door, and Krystal walked in with a smile on her face, walked to the desk, and said with a smile, "How are you doing, are you still busy?"

Just after taking a bath, Jiang Mingliang couldn't help sniffing the faint fragrance of Krystal's body. He opened his hand, and Krystal leaned into his arms obediently.

"Is your work in New Zealand going well?" Jiang Mingliang asked.

With Jiang Mingliang behind him, no one dared to do anything to Krystal. Hollywood has its own power list, and Jiang Mingliang, who represents capital, is above the power list. This is also the reason why Universal wanted to add an Asian character when it was producing "Pacific Rim: Uprising", and soon thought of Jiang Mingliang's two girlfriends.

"It went well." Krystal said, "It's the first time I experience Hollywood production, which is much more professional than Korea."

In contrast, Hollywood is able to harvest the world, naturally it has its advantages, not just because of the aircraft carrier. Especially in the production of this kind of commercial blockbuster, Hollywood's professionalism is amazing.

For Krystal, entering Hollywood is also a way to restart his career as an artist. Some time ago, she also went to school for further study. But, from time to time, I still miss the days when I was on stage, so I also have a Douyin account and update the vlog from time to time.

Anyway, Jessica is the daughter-in-law of the Jiang Family Ming Media, so what Krystal does doesn't have that much influence.

Jiang Mingliang could tell that Krystal still missed the days when he was an artist and had some careers as his sustenance, and he made a calculation in his heart.

"Due to some political incidents in Huaxia, South Korea is now completely banned. No matter how powerful I am, I can't fight against the national policy. If you want to apply for an account and update some vlogs like He La, I will arrange for Douyin to You can attract traffic, but you can do this. If you want to make a movie, I can find a brokerage company to help you manage some performance opportunities."

"..." Krystal looked at Jiang Mingliang, "Let's talk about it, I didn't think about it."

I have just learned some information from Jessica. Jiang Mingliang has said that he is relieved during this time, but he also has another regular partner in New York, so he is also worried.

"That's right, don't wait any longer. Jessica gave birth to Werner for me, and you have to give birth to me too!" Jiang Mingliang said, and his hands started to move.

"Fuck you, um... ouch" Accompanied by a seductive cry, Krystal's delicate body twisted like a snake, the two got close to each other on the sofa, and soon became entangled breathlessly . . . . . .

. . . . . .

On December 7, the Nets continued to sit at home, defeating the Hornets, which had just been upset not long ago, 119 to 91, and completed their revenge.

The person who showed off this time was Leonard. In the whole game, Leonard scored 34 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 4 blocks. The data is comprehensive.

This season, in the absence of Curry, Leonard has further expanded his influence on the offensive end. This season, while ensuring offensive efficiency, he has increased his output, although sometimes George's performance is even more explosive. But everyone knows that Leonard is the team's trump card.

In the second game of the team, Teodosic continued to play his role on the offensive end. While sending out 8 points and 9 assists, he bonded the team's offense. The only drawback is that the shooting rate is a bit low. 3 of 11 shots from the field is indeed not high. Many people will think of the golden boy Rubio just looking at his statistics. The difference is that Teodosic shot very resolutely when he had a chance, and his opponents didn't dare to let him shoot.

In this game, Stevens made a magical adjustment. In the second half of the second quarter and the opening of the third home, Robertson was placed on the court and stood at the power forward position. In addition to being unable to provide an offensive threat on the offensive end, this defensive champion is quite in line with the team's needs for the power forward position. He has a super defensive ability, and there is no pressure to switch defenders. He is also very active in doing dirty work. On the offensive end, because George, Leonard, and Porzingis all have strong shooting abilities, they can better cover up his shortcomings of poor shooting.

The team has found a reliable candidate at the power forward position, and at the same time, the hidden danger of overstaffing at the wing position has also been alleviated. It can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

This can be regarded as a pioneering work. The league's small ballization is becoming more and more extreme. In order to ensure the team's mobility when facing small guards in the pick-and-roll and defense, more and more teams choose to use some trifles. Players come to serve as power forwards, and the value of this type of players is gradually being raised. Stevens directly used Robertson as a small forward. Against this type of player, he did not suffer from top defense at all, and he could also take care of the task of assisting defense. A player with a basic salary has a good defensive effect against many players with an annual salary of tens of millions. The weakness of the Nets' power forward position is suddenly reduced, which many people did not expect.

Perhaps, for the Nets, Robertson's position as a power forward is a temporary solution, not the root cause. They still can't stand up to some orthodox power forwards with obvious physical advantages, but the league is now able to rely on his physical strength on the offensive end. How many power forwards? And what about being able to overpower Robertson and have enough mobility to slightly limit Curry's roster? After much deliberation, or only, thick eyebrow brother Davis?
