Reborn NBA's Strongest Talent

Chapter 298. Chapter 298

Before departure, Donovan announced to the players his plan to agree to Robertson's return to training.

The one-month training will focus on training Robertson in terms of physical fitness, fitness, reaction speed, and moving speed. After all, Robertson is a pure defensive player and can shoot without special recovery training.

Training shots is the same at any time, and other content can be prioritized.

"Wow!" Everyone was jubilant, warmly welcoming Robertson's return.

The news of Robertson's comeback made the team explode with amazing morale. If this morale can be converted into combat effectiveness, tonight's game will be very exciting.

At the same time, the All-Star voting has also begun, and the league has proposed a new concept-voting for the favorite veteran.

Heat's Wade has started his own retirement journey, the last dance.

As early as the start of the season, Wade has announced that this is his last season.Every game Wade will exchange jerseys with a player and take a group photo.

With the excellent publicity and Wade's good performance even though he was a substitute, the upsurge has not subsided, and Wade has also received many votes from fans.

Nowitzki, who is also going to retire this year, is also a player who fans voted for.

In his 20-year career, Nowitzki scored more than 3 points, ranking first in the entire NBA history.

At the same time, as the most successful foreign player in the league, there is no one. Nowitzki has led the team to win a championship with a single core. At the same time, as an iconic figure of one man, one city, Nowitzki is a well-deserved boss in the Lone Ranger.

Even if Doncic has shown excellent ability now, Nowitzki is also accompanying and leading the growth of the new team core as the locker room boss and spiritual leader.

Then there is Rose, who has a second spring with the Thunder.

The 50-point "rose blooming" night made the fans "Ye Qinghui". In addition, Rose averaged 16.5 points and 6.3 assists per game, which is completely a qualified starting point guard.

Compared with being on the bench and being traded and cut off in previous years, Rose's progress this year is a beautiful inspirational story.

A genius who fell from the peak due to injury, became a waste that everyone detested, and once again became the focus of everyone's attention through his own disdainful efforts.

That's how novels are written.

It happened around me.

Fans will naturally vote for Rose.

It's just that Rose has just passed 30 and is not considered a veteran.

He just looked old and his eyes were full of vicissitudes.

It's a pity that Westbrook and George, originally one of them should have won a triple-double for the third consecutive season, and the other is a double-first team and ranked third in MVP. He once reached the number one player. At this time, there are not many All-Star votes.

He was injured at home and couldn't participate in the All-Star Game. Those who voted were just some die-hard fans.

There is always very little time to be happy, and it is time to fight again.

The Christmas holiday is the best time to reunite with family members. Some people want to release their passion after staying at home for a few days, and some people choose to enjoy the excitement with their families.

No matter which one, their destination is the same place - Toyota Center Arena.

The local audience in Houston filled the arena early, just waiting for the start of the game.

Although it is a pity that only one of the Thunder's Big Three is left, it is worth looking forward to what kind of collision Li Cha and Harden, who occupy the first and second place in the scoring list, will show tonight.

The game did not live up to the expectations of the audience. The Rockets at home were fully suppressed from the beginning, and three-pointers were raining. Not only Harden, Paul, Rivers Jr., Gerald Green, House and other players all scored three-pointers.

The rocket's unique magic ball theory had an excellent performance on this day, and the fans were fascinated by it.

Paul's pass and control played the role of threading the needle. It feels good, no problem, here it is for you, the position is good, no problem, it's also for you, nothing is bad, oh, it's Harden, and it's for you too.

Under Paul's organization, the Rockets' offense leaked out like quicksilver, directly blinding the Thunder.

Li Cha and Rose had already tried their best to defend from the perimeter. However, the Rockets' style of play almost put five of them on the three-point line. Adams didn't consciously follow suit, and was hit more and less by the perimeter, giving him more opportunities.

Adams followed suit, and Harden's breakthrough was annoying again.

Under the current rules, it is very difficult to prevent Harden's breakthrough. He is not called a foul, he is actively fouled.

Li Cha didn't want to watch from the sidelines because of the foul, so he could only defend with his body as much as possible and less open his arms, but this reduced the defensive area and gave the opponent room to break through.

The defense was weak, and the offense was not opened up. Although Li Cha scored 10 points, the performance of other players was not good enough.

In the first quarter, the Thunder trailed by as much as 26 points at 40:14.

The entire arena was boiling, and at the same time a little disappointed.

Boiling is the team's performance against the sky, and disappointment is that the Thunder's resistance is so weak that it doesn't look like they can have a wonderful game.

If it's just a big win, it's the same at home.

Of course, I would like to see scenes of intertwined victories and losses, and struggles and confrontations at the scene.

The best thing is that the Thunder can be very brave, and then with unremitting efforts, the home team can go from falling behind to turning around and finally reverse the successful bridge.

When encountering such a game, there will often be a team's tactic to fight the opponent for three-pointers. In particular, the Thunder now has several stable three-point shooters. It's not that the three-pointers were the weakest team in the league back then.

But this kind of competition is irrational. Competing with the opponent's best project will only stimulate the opponent's desire to win, and may perform better. Even if there is no better performance, as long as the status quo is maintained, it will be very scary.

The Thunder has always been the most powerful breakthrough and fast break, although the breakthrough is slightly weaker than when Westbrook was still there, but Rose can play the breakthrough tactics as well as Li Cha if he breaks out.

As for the fast break, it has never fallen behind. The team has a lot of young people, and the last thing they are afraid of is running.

Sometimes you have to press back and forth running, otherwise you will easily lose your defensive position.

After sorting out, the Thunder once again clarified their offensive tactics, still focusing on breakthroughs, and only shooting three-pointers when they have the opportunity.

The Rockets will definitely continue to play hard outside, but after all, the three-pointer is a shooting method that depends on the hands and the face. Do your best and obey the destiny. As long as you do a good job of defense, the rest depends on the performance of the opponent.

The Thunder's tactics are determined, and the rest is execution.

In the second quarter, Rose led his teammates to attack inside. Grant and Allen shot one after another, catching the Rockets inside by surprise.

However, due to strength reasons, the Rockets still put up a defensive posture after a period of confusion, and the Thunder did not score many points.

But the result of the chaotic battle was also very good. When the Rockets managed their chaotic backcourt, the offense seemed to be unable to handle it. What was worse than losing points was not scoring. Comparing the two, the Thunder recovered 4 points in just 4 minutes.

It was the turn of the starters to return, Li Cha came on stage, and Rose went off to rest.

This is a rest arrangement that Donovan had to make in order to balance the team's offensive ability. Although Rose and Li Cha would be better if they were on the court at the same time, the overall score could not reach the result of 1+1>2, so it is better to lead the team separately.

It's Li Cha's turn to attack the inside. If Harden is in the low post, whether it is a power forward or a center, it will be difficult to impress Harden.

Li Cha also gave up his strongest back-to-the-basket attack, and took advantage of Harden's weaker perimeter defense to attack face-to-basket.

Li Cha's footsteps, explosive power and speed are all very strong, directly smashing Harden into a sieve.

Offensively, Harden also crazily breaks through Li Cha, but in comparison, Li Cha's breakthrough success rate is higher, and Harden's step-back shot is higher.

Originally thought that he had already set up an anti-breakthrough formation, but was still messed up by Li Cha.

I wanted to give up defense and go for offense, but found that the Thunder's goal was more passionate and passionate. Although the audience didn't applaud and shout, they obviously liked watching it more.

The Rockets are mainly shooting, and everyone is watching it interestingly, and the atmosphere at home is getting worse and worse.

If this goes on, the team will be affected even more.

If you go to defense, you will not be able to adjust the lineup for a while, and you will lose your shooting touch after consuming too much energy.

No matter how you play, the Rockets are obviously not ready to deal with such a situation.

In the pre-match preparations, I probably didn't evaluate the Thunder's offensive strength, thinking that the Thunder would only hit mid-range and long-range shots after only Li Cha was left.

Li Cha's reluctance to break through is not because he doesn't know how to do it, but because breaking through with his face to the basket consumes more energy, and shooting with his back to the basket easily saves his energy and allows him to defend better.

The old saying goes that the best defense is an offense.

Today, the Thunder relied on offense to pull down the Rockets' offensive efficiency.

The Thunder recovered 12 points in the second quarter, and the two teams reached 62:64.

The Thunder chased back the score frantically, and the audience was not happy anymore. This way of fighting will not only tie the game, but also reverse the lead.

The previous imagination was for the home team, not the visiting team.

Isn't it okay for the visiting team to lose honestly?

During the halftime break, Donovan was very excited and gave the players a long and serious talk about the tactics.

Isn't Thunder's tactics always simple?Recently, many more complicated tactics have been started. The team is in good condition, and even the coach has been deeply affected.

Only by becoming a monolithic team can we have better tactical execution and coordination, and after better tactical execution and coordination, the cohesion of the team will be further deepened. This is a very virtuous circle.

It's not that Westbrook didn't bring the team together before, it's that the team's role players have changed and they can't integrate into the team well and quickly.

This is the reason why a championship team will try to keep the original players.
