"James played very hard tonight and hit the inside a lot."

"But his shooting percentage and efficiency are very low because Tang Qian is standing under the Lakers' basket."

"Similar to our country's Yao Ming, James is actually most afraid of this kind of powerful center. As long as he plays a strong inside position, his statistics will always decline."

"Tang Qian's appearance is the situation that James dislikes the most."

ESPN Live Room.

"Now is the critical moment, and KING should break out into a wave of flow and take away the game."

"This is Cleveland's home court, and the Lakers can't win."

T.N.T live broadcast room.

"If James doesn't break out tonight, he will probably fall into the abyss of blacksmithing again in this game."

"I've said it before, James was a relatively ordinary player in the 1990s. His style of play just adapted to the current era of declining centers."

"Kenny, you actually said that? I always thought you were KING's secret agent."

"I like James in this era, but don't forget, I said that the strongest era of the NBA was still the 1980s and 1990s. The current NBA is just the most entertaining and easiest to watch. There are too many offensive rules that are beneficial. I think Ola

Now that Zhu Wang has arrived, he can at least average 40+ points per game against this group of people, because he is really too weak."

"So what's your point?"

"My point of view is very simple. I like James, and I also appreciate the offensive basketball of this era, but today's star players will become average players in the 1980s and 1990s. The change in scale is extremely important. Today's defense seems

Zone defense has been added, but physical confrontation has been weakened to a certain extent. Forget about canceling Hand-G. In our era, you could hardly think of having a body hair whistle. Including Michael Jordan, he did not give it before he won the championship.

I need to take more care of him. Otherwise, he would have passed the Pistons long ago."

"Furthermore, from a technical level, today's star players are relatively single-functional players. They only need to do one or two things. In our 80s and 90s, such players were just roles. You are like me.

. But now, because the rules and standards have changed, they can also become superstars and can do whatever they want. This is due to changes in the league."

"Actually, I agree with your point of view. For example, Harden, Durant, and James now don't have so many whistles or offensive protection policies. I don't think they can score so easily. In our era, the inside line

It's impossible for outside players to easily come in and score without paying a price. Look at this scar on my head. Is it possible in today's league? Such a large number of players entering the paint to score points was the end of Jordan back then. This is

What an insult to the inside players."

"It's a pity that today's insiders don't understand what insult is at all. They just play happily and get off work happily. It makes me feel sick to my stomach."

"Hahaha~ Just adapt to it~ Every era has its own style of play~ Fatty, don't be jealous~"

"Tch~ I just think that if you have a good body now, you can run rampant. Back then, I had super shooting ability. If I lived in modern times, would I only earn less than 50 million US dollars?"

Staples Center.

James is really working hard to score, but when his long-range shooting ability is not turned on tonight, all he can do is kill the basket. And this ability, which was originally his most important means of scoring, is not in use tonight.

When facing the Los Angeles Lakers, he became stretched. Because he had missed two consecutive shots since his exchange of words with Tang Qian. This is for James, who is averaging 57% shooting per game this season.

, is really a bit exaggerated.

In the original time and space, James was far less strong this season than he is now. It seems that after the match between the Heat and the Lakers last year, James was also greatly stimulated. Mainly because after losing to the Lakers, his and Kobe's historical status have greatly changed.

deviation.

Even if he can gain honors in the later stage and suppress No. 24, if he loses, he loses, just like when O'Neal lost to Olajuwon. Just one sentence is enough to criticize you. If you fight on the highest stage, you lose.

, I won, that’s enough.

Therefore, James also learned his shame and became brave. This season, he has indeed entered a James state that has never been seen in history.

In this way, the Cavaliers can have a 20+ winning streak this season and form the absolute first team with the Lakers and Warriors.

But is he stronger... Tang Qian? Hasn't he strengthened? No, he has improved even more than James.

This is because his starting point is still relatively low, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. In addition, his tonnage and strength are his greatest confidence against players like James. Last season, Tang Qian was only 260+ pounds, less than 270 pounds.

What about James? He is so much shorter than Tang Qian, but he actually surpasses Tang Qian in terms of tonnage. In addition, James' bench press also exceeds 190KG, so Tang Qian is not as good as James in this aspect regardless of the hard conditions.

It was a very true portrayal that he still had to rely on his ability to get stuck against KING last season. In terms of confrontation, he couldn't suppress James.

But this season Tang Qian has increased to 291.3 pounds and has completely become a stable and heavy center. Of course, proportionally speaking, he is still a bit far behind James. But last season's confrontational disadvantages improved significantly. Coupled with the improvement in strength,

So James has improved this season, and so has Tang Qian.

That's why James felt a little crazy.

In addition, James has also lost weight this season, only weighing between 250 and 260 pounds. He feels that when he bumped into the Lakers' No. 29, he no longer had the obvious loose feeling before. This is why

In other words, his impact advantage, strength, and tonnage advantage are all weakening. Although his handwork at the basket has increased a lot, it is not worth the comparative weakening of these aspects of the former.

Moreover, he improved his game and the opponent quickly followed suit. This aspect also surprised James.

"KING hit the basket, and this ball... alas, it didn't go in. It seems like KING's touch wasn't very good tonight."

Is it because James' touch is not good or because the opponent's basket is too intimidating? The Cavaliers' on-site commentator was not willing to say it directly. This also meant that he was taking care of the face of his team's superstar.

"Are you coming again? I told you, it doesn't matter who comes under the basket. It doesn't matter whether you are James or not, it's the same."

"The game is not over yet, all I want is to win!"

"I know, but you can't win." Tang Qian said with a smile: "Because I was born to restrain you."

"Restraint like a natural enemy."

James was so angry that he was shaking with anger from this Oriental center, but because he couldn't open his shot, he could only choose to kill it with his head. When it comes to shooting, James has always been weak, especially in the mid-range. If he didn't have a good touch, he would be a tough guy.

The water dispenser is even worse. Putting two meters inside is really not a joke.

You can do this as long as tonight is outside James' "intermittent" time.

Now that the score is getting bigger and bigger, it is very important to ensure the offensive shooting percentage. It's not that James doesn't want to shoot, but he doesn't dare to shoot. He has never been an accurate mid-range shooter, let alone a master, three-pointers.

He also relied on muscle memory to practice hard, which somewhat obscured other people's views on his shooting ability. But unfortunately, again, the mid-range shot is not a three-pointer, and it cannot be achieved by relying on muscle memory.

It was obvious that James did not have a long-range shot tonight. Tang Qian stood on the inside and said decisively: "Jimmy, defend the three-pointer. Stay close and don't be afraid of him breaking through." If this were the Spurs, it would be "defend."

Three-pointers, two meters from mid-range." But the Lakers are not the Spurs. They have No. 5 Tang Qian with super defensive ability, so the situation can be changed.

After all, directly defending can damage morale and psychology more than the opponent's failure to score, right?

Tang Qian never showed any mercy on the court, which was totally different from him off the court.

When he gets on the court, even if his opponent is disabled, he will use all his strength to defeat him.

He is such a basketball player.

What this means... doesn't sticking to the three-pointer allow him to break through? He is really confident in himself.

But forget it, he is the boss of the team, and he won't listen even if I say it.

It is said that this kind of defense prevents James from having any chance to shoot long-range three-pointers, but it also becomes easier to break through.

Tianchao Sports Channel.

"Is this a close three-pointer? Does that mean...let James break through? Isn't this too crazy?"

"He is James. He is known as the first person in history to end the basket and have the ability to finish outside the basket. Let him break through and kill? This..."

"This move is a bit too much. But it's only for one round. Just adjust it back in the next round."

Tou Da? It’s just one round? You’ll know soon if it’s true.

"KING broke through. This kind of close-fitting three-point defense is stupid! This is allowing KING to blow up the Lakers' basket!" Fred McLeod, the Cavaliers' on-site commentator, shouted into the commentary microphone.

Said: "This decision is so stupid! I seem to have heard the sound of the basketball slamming into the Lakers' basket."

As a result, there was a sound coming out, but it was not the sound of a slam dunk, but... the sound of a big hat dunk.

This scene made Fred McLeod stunned for a moment, because this situation is really rare since he explained James' games. Normal people can block James' dunk and boast about it for a long time, such as

It was the dunk that Ibaka blocked in the finals, but it was a defensive block. This is basically equivalent to a one-on-one situation under the basket.

When the Lakers attacked, Tang Qian caused a defensive foul on Mozgov of the Cavaliers. He committed 6 fouls and was sent off again.

Tang Qian made 1 of 2 free throws, and the Lakers continued to widen the score difference.

I thought that this kind of thing would be enough once, and we could just let it go, because we had already succeeded in pretending, right? However, in the next round, the Lakers still adopted the same defensive method. This time, even Bart

Ledu wanted to know whether he would succeed. So after he was rushed by the Cavaliers' No. 23, he actually slowed down and didn't even want to go up to cover or pursue the defense. But he didn't know,

This action has become the best footnote to this scene.

Did you see that when the tyrant blocked the king's shot, he didn't even think about asking for help from his teammates?

Definitely watch the show, it only adds to the shock of this scene.

James's ball suddenly flew high and violently. His body was very tight and his muscles were bulging. If he hit it, it would probably be the same as fighting a car. Yao Ming once said that he must block James's ball.

Killing at the basket requires courage, and getting hit by a bullet is enough. But Yao Ming had it, and Tang Qian certainly had it too. The courage deep in Dongfang's blood kept them from retreating.

My huge body is not designed to dodge.

A center must be tough.

James couldn't help shouting about the ball. It was obvious that he attached great importance to the ball, and Tang Qian did the same.
