The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

The fourth game between the Wizards and the Celtics will still be held at the North Shore Garden Arena, the home of the Celtics. Fortunately, the distance between Washington and Boston is not very far. After the third game, all the Wizards will ride The plane returned to Washington to rest, and then came to the Celtics before the start of the fourth game.

In this game, the Celtics have undoubtedly stepped on the edge of the cliff with half their foot. If they continue to lose the game at home and the total score reaches 3:1, the hope of a comeback is almost slim.

It is also one of the few players in the history of the playoffs who can complete a comeback when they are behind 1:3.

So in this game, the Celtics want to win anyway.

Similarly, on Wang Xiao's side, he didn't give up the idea of ​​winning this game at all.

As the saying goes, go all out, then decline, and exhaust three times.

The current two-game winning streak of the Wizards is booming. If they can win this game, then the morale of the Wizards will also reach its peak. is excellent.

But if they lose this game, not to mention the team's morale will be hit, and then they will have to fight the Celtics in the Tianwangshan battle.

To be honest, Wang Xiao is not very willing to fight a tough battle like Tianwangshan with an experienced and tough team like the Celtics.

Although the current lineup of the Wizards is extremely luxurious, it is reasonable that there are very few players on the team who can fight tough battles.

Needless to say, Harden has become the star of the Rockets in another time and space, and his malaise at critical moments in the playoffs has been condemned by countless people.

Although Curry's performance is slightly better than Harden's, he will always be in poor condition by the opponent's targeted defense in key games such as the finals.

In the 2014-15 season, the Warriors reached the finals for the first time, facing the disabled Cavaliers, and ended the entire series in six games, but the MVP of the finals was not Curry, but Iguodala.

Curry played very poorly against Cavaliers backup point guard Dellavedova.

In the second year, that is, in the 2015-16 season, Curry won the regular season MVP and led the Warriors to a shocking 73 wins in the league. Everyone knows the story after that. In the finals with a 3:1 lead , The Warriors were defeated by the Cavaliers for 3 consecutive rounds, and finally lost the championship by the Jedi.

Curry has also been criticized for relying too much on touch and not being able to fight tough battles.

...

Under Wang Xiao's training, the growth paths of Curry and Harden have been completely different from those in another time and space, but even so, Wang Xiao did not dare to take the risk of trying the two people's ability to respond to high pressure.

In the final analysis, Wang Xiao didn't use any props similar to growth template cards for the two. No matter how they trained, the upper limit and ability value of the two should not exceed the peak value of another time and space.

This is not to say that the upper limit of the two is not high enough, on the contrary, whether it is Curry or Harden, as players, they can already be regarded as the top existence.

Curry redefined the three-pointer, changed the style of the entire league almost by himself, and became the first player in the league to be unanimously elected as the MVP of the regular season.

Although Harden is not as good as Curry in the championship and other honors, he was also elected as the MVP of the regular season, and the explosive data of averaging 36 points, 7.5 assists and 6.6 rebounds in the 18-19 season is one of the craziest personal shows since Jordan Kobe .

It is precisely because their upper limit is already very high, and they are at the level of the historical Hall of Fame, so if they want to improve further, it is not achievable by pure training.

Of course, now Wang Xiao's Curry and Harden are far from reaching their peak level, so training can still greatly improve their personal abilities.

Closer to home, in order to avoid complications, Wang Xiao must further reduce the risk of fighting.

The fourth game against the Celtics must also be won by every means.

As for how to win, of course, grab George and grab the wool!

Compared with Curry and Harden, George, who grew up almost completely against James, is obviously much stronger in fighting tough battles. Unfortunately, George has never really defeated James, and he can't even surpass James in terms of statistics.

Fortunately, Wang Xiao is not going to let George beat James. It is impossible to be reasonable. Although James has a lot of black spots, his personal strength is undoubtedly at the historical level.

As long as George can slightly offset the effect of James, in Wang Xiao's view, it is a success.

And now, helping the Wizards beat the Celtics is George's biggest test before facing James.

...

After the explosive performance of the first two games, no matter how hard Rivers' head is, it is impossible to continue to let George catch the ball casually like in the previous two games.

What Wang Xiao predicted was right.

At the beginning of the fourth game, George was taken care of by the Celtics. Not only did Pierce closely follow him all the way, but whenever George received the ball, the Celtics would immediately double-team him.

George's passing ability is not outstanding. When facing a double team, it is difficult to pass the ball to an open player in the first place.

The Celtics' targeted defense made George very uncomfortable, and even made frequent mistakes when passing the ball.

This also made the Wizards lose even George's stable scoring point at the beginning.

It was an unfavorable situation at the beginning, and Wang Xiao was not in a hurry to make adjustments.

In his impression, although George's assist ability is not strong, he is definitely not a type who can't cope. He will also average 4+ assists per game in the next few seasons.

In the previous regular season, George did not take on the job of a passer, so he was at a loss when encountering the Celtics' targeted defense.

But Wang Xiao believes that with George's ability to adapt and learn, he should be able to quickly adapt to this rhythm.

It was about the same as Wang Xiao expected.

In the first quarter of the game, under the defense of the Celtics, George made 4 shots and only hit 1 goal. At the same time, he made 3 turnovers under double-teaming. His performance was terrible.

But after the start of the second quarter, George obviously began to adapt gradually.

When facing the opponent's double-team, he no longer panics, but calmly looks for open teammates, and strives to pass the ball as soon as possible.

In any case, double-teaming, there will inevitably be gaps in other positions, and when George can pass the ball before the double-teaming, the Wizards' players who receive the ball will basically be in an open state .

Soon, George himself almost filled the huge hole he dug in the first quarter.
