the great gatsby

Chapter 538 This kid has a hard head!

The Lakers' No. [-] pick played a big role as soon as they came up, and the Thunder's coach Brooks quickly called a timeout.

Yang Yi said: "Amazing!"

Director Zhang: “It’s indeed interesting.”

"The Lakers' draft pick is not in vain. Randall is a top pick for his physical fitness. If he can learn a few more tricks from Gatsby, he will have a bright future!" Yang Yi said.

"That's right, which of the rookies brought out by Gatsby is not a leader in the league now, but that must be appreciated by Gatsby!" Director Zhang laughed.

Harry Potter, oh no, Coach Brooks called a timeout, mainly to interrupt the Lakers' start. In fact, there were not many adjustments. The only adjustment was to order Westbrook to slow down the rhythm. Westbrook Brook nodded absently, staring at the Lakers frequently.

Coach Brooks sighed. He didn't understand what this disciple was thinking. He had always wanted to compete with Gates, but this rivalry was over not long ago. Repeated defeats and repeated defeats. In his heart, he still admires this kind of spirit.

This guy has a tough head!

The game returned to the court, Westbrook held the ball, and stared at Gatsby viciously while dribbling, as if to dig a piece of flesh out of Gatsby's body.

Gatsby didn't like Westbrook too much. In his eyes, the quality of the game has something to do with the character, but competition is competition, and being aggressive on the court does not mean that the character is not good off the court.But the golf quotient is really related to IQ. Westbrook's self-control ability is too poor, and he is very easy to get in the way. This is not what Gatsby appreciates. He is too reckless!

Gatsby admires point guards like Paul, Nash, Kidd, and Westbrook. He really doesn't like him. Of course, this has nothing to do with Westbrook always provoking him.

Durant received the ball from the right-wing waist and singled Johnson with the ball. Johnson couldn't stop Durant. This time Durant made a mid-range shot. Defense doesn't have much to do with it.

The Thunder scored, Gatsby still played fast after receiving the ball, and quickly advanced to the frontcourt. As soon as Kobe reached the three-point line, Gatsby's ball was in place. Kobe pulled up and shot, but Randall rushed The rebound was given to Gatsby, and Gatsby raised Westbrook, dribbled to the side, and hit a three-pointer!

The point difference is close to 1 points.

But then Brooks's response was tactful. He instructed the Thunder players not to give Gatsby a chance to push the speed. As long as the Lakers have a chance to form a transition, the Thunder will decisively foul and force the Lakers to go down.

Gatsby is also helpless, you are so strong and still use such rogue tactics, this is not giving others a way out!
Brooks didn't hear this, and if he did, he certainly wouldn't care—brother, do you know how many years we've been thinking about winning you once?

The tactic of killing the Lakers' morale in the ground is really effective. Gatsby has been in the league for so many years, and he has never seen such a group of talented people gathered together. They all run like the wind, and they have to be careful not to be interfered by their long arms when passing a ball. This is not one or two, but five!
The opportunity to pass the ball is fleeting, like a knife across the water. Once the first pass is interfered, if you want to pass again in the second pass, you will either be intercepted or lose the opportunity to attack—difficult!
This is the most difficult team Gatsby has ever seen. No wonder this team was able to play a full seven games with the 15-win Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals in the 16-73 season. It was still crushing at the beginning Fight against the Warriors!

They can push the Warriors to the corner to keep up with their defense!
The Warriors' offense with 73 victories was the best in the world at the time. If it was only against the Golden State Warriors in offense, no one could match them. The Thunder's offense is naturally one of the top in the league, but as far as offense is concerned, it may not be as good as that team. Warrior's.

This defense is really difficult!

Gatsby marveled.

In the first quarter, the difference between the two sides was not too big, and the Lakers fell behind by 6 points.

Back on the bench, Kobe's face was not very good. He was entangled by Durant in the first quarter, but he took a lot of shots, but now his ability has declined, and it is difficult to make more responses.

Kobe sat next to Gatsby, bumped Gatsby with the tip of his elbow, and stared at the court: "Do I need to come up with something?"

Gatsby shook his head, "Not yet?"

Kobe said: "If you wait any longer, it will be too late."

Gatsby smiled and said, "There's still a lot of time."

Kobe: "I don't care, you have to fight later!"

Gatsby: "...good!"

In the first quarter, Gatsby scored 8 points, 2 assists and 3 rebounds, and his efficiency was not bad.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Jim Iron's lineup for Gatsby was: Clarkson, Nick Young, Jordan Hill, and Ryan Kelly.

This lineup has no other purpose, but to open up space for Gatsby. Clarkson, Nick Young, and Ryan Kelly all have three-point range, which can help Gatsby open up space for singles.

Jim Iron also saw it very clearly. Facing the Thunder, the Lakers' lack of talent made it difficult for the Lakers to open up the situation. They simply let Gatsby play alone. It would be a pity if Gatsby's offensive ability was not used.

In the second quarter, Gatsby started to start the offensive mode, and Jim Ain's tactics were simple, that is, one star and four shots, Gatsby held the ball in singles, and the other four helped him open up space.

There are three people who are best used in the league today, two James and one Gatsby.

The two James refer to LeBron James and James Harden.

It is also interesting to say that although these three people also use one-star shooting, their styles of play are still different.

LeBron shoots four times to open up space, focusing on breakthroughs, tends to play big and small, and mainly passes the ball to the outside for three-point shots;
Harden's one-star shooting widens the space, mainly ends with three-pointers, tends to go small and play big, and mainly passes the ball to eat cakes for the inside;
No one knows what Gatsby wants to do, because he is not based on his technical characteristics, but on the characteristics of his opponent.

Gatsby is too comprehensive. In fact, as long as he is a superstar, he is very comprehensive. For example, James and Harden. Although James focuses on breakthroughs, his shooting is much better than the average NBA player. Lord, but his breakthrough is still at the top of the league.

This is not very thorough, but it will be clearer if it is expressed with data.

James' breakthrough can be evaluated with 99 points, but the shooting may only be 90 points;
Harden's shooting is evaluated with 95 points, but the breakthrough may only be 91;

But Gatsby's shooting is 99 points, and his breakthrough is also 99 points-he has no shortcomings!

So Coach Brooks was a little overwhelmed when he hit the [-]-pointer, and after Gatsby scored two possessions in a row, he went to the flank -- he didn't want Gatsby to have the ball.

So Jordan Hill made two dunks inside, Nick Young made a three-pointer, and Clarkson made a layup.

The Lakers played a wave of 14:6 and overtook the score in half a quarter!
