Chapter 893 [Parallel Imports, Super Harden]
The Suns lost to the Heat away in the next game, and the winning streak was ended.
The Heat have relied on putting together things to strengthen the lineup. The overall strength is not bad, and they are currently ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.
Wade scored 35 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, Granger scored 20 points and 7 rebounds, and Odom also scored 16 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists.
The Heat point guard is Mario Chanmos, and Mayo is responsible for the sixth man to lead the substitute. He performed a little better after having the ball in the second quarter. After Odom joined, the Heat players cooperated well and the ball ran very quickly.
Riley not only introduced Granger and Odom to assist Wade, but also two defensive inside players, Louis Ammondson and Jeron Collins, and signed substitute point guard Ronnie Price from the outside.
The Heat's lineup has changed a lot, mainly because O'Neal Jr. jumped out of the contract. If he chooses to execute the last year's contract, the Heat will have to rebuild in 2010, and now it's time to go ahead.
O'Neal, who joined the Hawks, made Nash miserable. Last season, he maintained good health at the Heat and also played beautiful data. As a result, the Hawks only played 20 games and were reimbursed for the season due to knee injury.
No matter how the future develops, James will never be able to go to the Heat, but Wade can go to him to play basketball.
Guo Xu participated in the Christmas game, playing against the Warriors at home, and both sides scored a high score of 142 to 127 in regular time.
The Warriors are not Robert's team yet. The boss Chris Cohan probably thinks that he can achieve a good record in the new season, and did not immediately sell all his shares. If he scored a good record, it proved that the combination of Kobe, Curry, and Roll Deng is very promising, and the team can sell at a higher price.
Unfortunately, the Warriors once again disappointed Kohan. Their overall offense is very powerful. They can pull out the ball to shoot in the inside and make a spike in the outside, but the defense is a mess, with a 9 win and 20 losses at the beginning.
The team's new head coach is "Little General" Avery Johnson, which is doomed to the Warriors' tragedy. He brought five sets of tactics from the Mavericks, which is the singles at No. 1-5. The good news is that the Warriors will not become weaker because Mike Woodson played like this before.
After Curry joined the Warriors, Barbosa can return to his familiar sixth man position, but his tactics are the same as last season, and the point guards dribble over half of the game and opened up waiting for the opportunity.
The biggest problem for the Warriors is Elton Brand, who averaged 32 minutes per game, scored 13.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.1 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 46.3%, and a real shooting percentage of 51.2%.
Brand's bad luck cannot be fully reflected in the data. After two serious injuries, his speed became slower, and his ability to prevent pick-and-roll was worse. He could only fight people near the penalty area, and his short size was also average in rebounding ability.
David Anderson's defense is not as good as Brand, and Steven Hunter's athletic ability has declined even more after returning from injury.
In Guo Xu's previous life, Turiav joined the Warriors. Although he was a pure defensive blue-collar worker, at least he was very good at playing in the defense in the penalty area. After signing Brand, the Warriors could not sign an excellent blue-collar big man, and there were fatal weaknesses in the defense of the penalty area.
The Warriors won the teams with poor offense in the interior. Anyone who shoots hot zone near the penalty area is basically dead end. After the screening, the big man cuts the ball and catches the ball, they average 112 points per game.
In the Christmas game, Guo Xu did not make much effort and scored 20 points and 24 assists. Sir S scored a game-high 45 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists, and Gasol Jr. also scored 22 points.
Kobe scored 41 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, with a shooting percentage of up to 60%, but he couldn't win if he couldn't defend himself. The opponent's shooting percentage was higher than that of him.
At the post-match press conference, Kobe expressed strong dissatisfaction with the team's defense. The cameraman photographed Kobe on the court and gave Curry a glare of death.
Curry's defense is really not very good in the rookie season. When he was against the Bucks, he was scored 51 points by Jennings, who was also a rookie. The two met in the whole game, and Curry was passed by the opponent again and again.
Because of his unruly personality and extraordinary street style, Jennings, who emerged from nowhere, was called "Iverson's successor". Curry was ridiculed as "Square-in-Law". People say that comparing him with Guo Xu is an insult. He just shoots well, breaks through, and is not fast. The defense is very similar to Guo Xu who lets the water.
Some experts also pointed out that Curry was resisted before the season started. Kobe did not talk to Curry in the locker room, which gave the rookie an embarrassing start because Curry expressed his unwillingness to join the Warriors, just as he looked down on Kobe.
There are also many people who criticize Kobe online, questioning his ability to lead the team, thinking that he is a cancer in the locker room. When Bogut arrived at the Lakers, Kobe did not communicate. He and his teammates were nodding and said hello with a smile. The relationship would not be so good that he cared about the other party.
Someone else criticized Kobe for saying that as long as he left, Curry and Roll Deng would definitely not be a role player who averaged less than 15 points per game, and would immediately rise to become a star.
Curry's data is much worse than Guo Xu's previous life because he has to share the ball rights with his teammates.
Kobe averaged 21.5 shots per game, scoring 27 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting percentage of 45.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 32.9%, and free throw shooting percentage of 81%.
Rollden averaged 12.1 shots per game, Brand averaged 11.5 shots per game... Curry averaged 11.8 shots per game, averaged 14.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 46.8%, a three-point shooting percentage of 45.6%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 88.5%.
Although Curry's real shooting percentage is close to 60%, and his scoring efficiency is higher than Kobe with a real shooting percentage of 54.5%, he is just a rookie and the coach cannot give him more shots.
What is distinctive with Curry is James Harden, the fourth rookie who is now leading the rookie list. After joining the Kings, he was so lucky that he was directly established as the core of the outside line.
Harden also participated in the Christmas game, his opponent was the Clippers. He led the Kings to a victory, with a 17-12 start and returned to the playoffs.
Harden averaged 37.2 minutes per game, scored 23.6 points, 5 rebounds, 5.2 assists, shooting percentage of 42.6% and 3-point shooting percentage of 36.2%. His data is better than another James rookie season, and he has secured the best rookie.
In an interview, the reporter asked Harden why he had such a long beard.
Harden replied: "This is the look that Jason Guo chose for me. He said that my appearance will be more domineering and will be better when I keep my beard. I will stay for a year and a half, which is really effective."
It's weird if it's effective. When he goes to the Thunder, he's just a bench player. The coach arranges tactics and gives the ball rights is the key.
Harden threw a three-pointer very vigorously, and his pick-and-roll tactics were also very good with Brooke Lopez. Lopez made obvious progress. He could take a mid-range shot, cut in the pick-and-roll, and he could also use his body and footsteps to play singles at a low post.
Guo Xu's youngster Jason Richardson swings at the 3 and 4th position, can catch the ball and shoot three-pointers, and can occasionally make fast attacks.
The unlucky one was Kevin Martin, who was the sixth man and took the substitute, and the point guard was Benno Yudri.
Yudri is a heavy guard, shooting excellently, usually passes the ball in half, waits for the opportunity to catch the ball, rarely breaks through, breaks once when misplaced, and scores are not low.
Curry envies Harden very much. He believes that if he joins the Kings, he will not perform worse than Harden, but now he is under the reputation of a "defensive black hole". He is just a defensive defender who suffers losses. He has a height that can interfere with shooting. He lets him and Kobe switch to Korver, and Moro can do it.
