Chapter 559 How Powerful is Gatsby?
It was snowy outside, but inside the aviation center was as warm as spring. Gatsby was sweating slightly after warming up, feeling very happy all over. Being able to sweat in such a cold environment is also a great enjoyment.
Dwayne Casey Coach Casey with his hands on his hips, with a solemn face, he started to take charge of the Raptors in the 11-12 season, and it is now his fifth season. Since he entered the league, Gatsby has been in full swing At the moment, the monstrous waves caused by Gatsby in the 11-12 season have not stopped yet.

Coach Dwayne Casey is not a rookie coach. He was in charge of the Timberwolves in the two seasons of 05-07. No matter how old he was, Gatsby's strength was enough for him to understand.

How powerful is Gatsby?
No one in the league can really say one, two, three, four. Other superstars have their own flaws, but Gatsby...he doesn't seem to have any!

Who are the most powerful people in the league now, James, Curry, Durant, these are recognized as the strongest three, but if Gatsby is included, these three people can't even compare with Gatsby Discuss on the same level, but have to discuss Gatsby at the top of the pyramid separately. Discussions on Gatsby cannot be simply discussed horizontally. Players of the same generation cannot be compared with him, so they can only be discussed vertically. , Only when players from all eras are discussed together can there be a need for discussion.

He wants to be compared with Michael Jordan, Chamberlain, magician, Bird and other great gods, and some of them have gradually fallen out of the ranks of comparison with Gatsby.

So tonight the opponent the Raptors will face tonight is such a player. The Raptors simply cannot produce a player who can truly match up with Gatsby. Well, that’s not right. It should be said that today’s league simply cannot produce one. Find a player who can match up with Gates.

Now there is a saying that has been widely circulated in the league-it is a tragedy to be in the same era as Gatsby, but the players drafted in the same year as Gatsby are the sorrows of sorrows!

Perhaps this is an era of coercion.

Coach Casey's face was heavy, but he suddenly smiled. What he smiled was - fortunately Gatsby went to the West, otherwise the East would have been desperate. In the years when Gatsby suppressed the East, to be honest, Yes, Coach Casey is determined to continue working in Canada.

Look at how many teams have been broken up in the Eastern Conference over the years, such as the Celtics, Heat, Eagles, etc., the Raptors are catching up. Now the Eastern Conference is in decline, and all the strongmen have gone to the Western Conference.

Game start.

Coach Casey's starting lineup is: Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRozan, Valanciunas, Norman Powell, Bismack Biyombo.

The starting lineup for the Lakers is: Gatsby, Kobe, Joe Johnson, Aldridge and Gasol.

Valanciunas and Ade jumped the ball in the middle circle. Valanciunas was two centimeters taller, and the timing was good. He first passed the ball to Lowry, and Lowry quickly advanced to the frontcourt.

Lowry is a short guard. He is 185cm tall but weighs 89kg. You must know that Gatsby is now 198cm and weighs only 95kg. Lowry has a low center of gravity and fast speed. Too scared, other defenders are afraid of Gatsby's physical pressure, but Lowry has a strong body and a low center of gravity, so he is not afraid of Gatsby's pressure.

But not being afraid of being forced doesn't mean he can single-handedly fight Gatsby. Gatsby knew that he couldn't use press to defend against Lowry, so he just followed his footsteps and interfered with his long arms. Anyway, he could keep up.

Lowry felt the pressure from Gatsby as soon as he came up. Gatsby kept in front of him at all times, even after the pick-and-roll, he would follow behind. With Gatsby's athletic ability, height and wingspan, once he wanted to If you want to make a mid-range shot or drive to the basket for a layup, you are likely to be blocked.

But maybe you can't be afraid. Lowry can see this very clearly. Once he is afraid, his characteristics will not be easy to play.

So Lowry got rid of Gatsby after the pick-and-roll, and Gatsby went around and continued to chase. Lowry could stop for a while to block Gatsby's follow-up defense, and then start a layup...still get blocked!
Gatsby is tall, athletic, and has good defensive experience. Lowry's little tricks are ultimately flattened in front of talent.

Gatsby blocked the shot, and Gasol took the lead to grab the ball. As soon as Gatsby landed, Gasol handed the ball over. Bi started at the same time and was not thrown off by Gatsby, but Gatsby pulled up directly when he was two steps from the three-point line, and Er Luo Rui was beside him. Gatsby did not hesitate at all, just pulled up and shot.

Lowry was running hard enough at high speed, and there was no way to interfere. When Gatsby took off, Lowry could only hide and watch Gatsby shoot, and hit a three-pointer!

Lowry was being watched by Gatsby, and he didn't dare to handle the ball. He quickly pushed the ball and gave it out, allowing DeRozan to hold the ball. The one who defended DeRozan was Joe Johnson. Although Joe Johnson was getting older, he He has not suffered serious injuries and is in good physical condition. It is not a big problem to keep up with DeRozan. Besides, there are two 211cm tall towers guarding the inside line, Gasol and Alderman. DeRozan can only choose to use mid-range, but it is a pity that he is strong. Small, the ball hit the front frame, Ade stuck Valanciunas to protect the rebound.

The Raptors have retreated, they dare not grab the offensive rebound, Gatsby's first ball put them on their guard - the rest of the Lakers can't get up, yes, but there is Gatsby, Gatsby Beth is different from other players in fast break. He is the league's number one chasing three-pointer. Well, the second is Stephen Curry, Gatsby's only madness in the league!

Without a chance, Gatsby slowly passed halftime. Just after halftime, he gave the ball to Gasol, and then passed around Gasol to catch the ball. Lowry was short in height and strong enough, and he was very good in pick-and-rolls. Great, but the diamond passed through, and the next moment he was dumbfounded, Gatsby had already jumped!
Gatsby is not afraid of being blocked when facing Lowry. He only needs a space to shoot... No, he only needs a space to take off. After he takes off, Lowry will never be able to block him. This is confidence!
Three points again!

6: 0!

Coach Casey didn't wait any longer. He had to adjust immediately. The whole league knows how powerful Gatsby's scoring power is. He didn't dare to take risks. Lowry has absolutely no way to limit Gatsby. , if this is the case, someone else has to defend it.

But who to replace? Coach Casey is having a headache.

He looked around and said, yes, it's you!
