Chapter 401 Dog Skin Plaster
He is 2.08 meters tall, weighs less than 100 kilograms, and has an annual salary of less than 7 million yuan. No matter how you look at it, he is a second-rate star, not to mention that Tekoglu is still a gold pan from Europe.
Even Gasol, who is the absolute core guy in Spain, has to be careful to start from the beginning, not to mention a big man who is not first-class in Europe.
Tekoglu can enter the NBA and get the first round of draft position. In addition to the lack of insiders in this league, his projection ability is still regarded by many people as the next Nowitzki.
Solid basic skills and the high response ability of a big man in Europe are all advantages that allow Tekoglu to successfully knock on the door of the NBA. However, his skills can only be regarded as superior at most.
Otherwise, he would not have been in the NBA for so long to find his position in the Magic. This guy's scoring ability is not weak. Even in the years of the Kings, he could average nearly two pairs per game.
And that's not the data he got when he was the main attacker. It was only after it came to Dafan Gundy's men that the full potential of this guy was dug out.
The average of 18 points per game this season may not be particularly eye-catching, but the average of 5 assists per game and the statistics of 7 rebounds can easily be outlined by an insider.
It can be inside, it can be outside, it feels soft, it can pass, it can throw, such a big guy who can pull out and respond at a high level, and then there is a big guy with beautiful passing skills. I guess whoever he will be happy to accept it.
Dafan Gundy dares to set the axis of the field on this guy, that is, he takes a fancy to the comprehensiveness of Tekoglu, and this guy is not greedy for merit, and rarely catches the ball and throws.
This may be a tradition within the European interior. In addition to attacking, they also have to shoulder the burden of responding. His passing skills, including Gasol, is also one of the reasons that make people covet him.
It's just that the weakness of these big Europeans is also obvious, that is, the lack of personal confrontation ability. Tecoglu was not valued at the beginning, and it was also because this guy was tall, but he couldn't get rebounds.
However, the situation has obviously improved this season. With Howard carrying it on the inside line, Tekoglu does not have to fight with the other side, but he has made great progress in catching the landing point of the rebound.
Therefore, now Big Fan Gundy has an absolutely good reason to let this guy play the axis, not only to let him pass the ball, but also to make him a pacemaker on the court, a terminator and a promoter.
With such a head coach who dares to use people, the Turk has been fully released. His role in this game is particularly obvious, even far beyond the expectations of Dafan Gundy.
Tekoglu's pivotal role was really played to the fullest, which forced Rivers to call a timeout at the beginning of the second quarter. He didn't want the score difference to become double digits at this time.
"Our defense is not completely blocked enough, which makes them always find a chance to cut in the periphery, and the defense line is too open, and we must stick to those guys. Otherwise, we will lose miserably tonight."
Rivers is not alarmist. He is just telling his team members in very simple words that this is not joking. If the Magic continues such a hot feeling, then the game is not easy to play.
Apart from whether the other party can continue this feeling, just because he is in a mess, he can make the Celtics doomed. In the past few minutes, everything seemed very chaotic.
Especially in defense, when Pierce meets Tecoglu, there is no good way to take the opponent all the time. He can't defend. If he let go, the opponent will hold the ball and play singles by himself.
Such a big organizer is definitely a headache. Not only is Pierce very awkward, but also because this guy's needle thread in the middle also makes others very passive.
If you can't solve the Tekoglu guy smoothly, then this game will definitely not be easy to play. The Magic team can only play more and more smoothly. Once it enters the rhythm of the projection team, the final result is difficult to predict.
Don't mention that the other party can go crazy, those empty seats alone will make the Celtics collapse.
Especially the shooting space from the three-point line to the three-second zone is likely to be a kill move for the opponent to beat the Celtics, one defender and four pitchers. Such a configuration is simply fierce.
And the Magic team is not just such a lineup. They also have Evans, Bogance, Gariti and Doolin, who can get the hit rate of these guys.
If these guys can also enter the offensive rhythm, and the feel can also be contagious, God, the Celtics' life must be difficult, especially the defense, will definitely be beaten into a sieve!
If the Magic team can live up this rainstorm-like attack, the Celtics' undefeated golden body at home will be broken before it is sure.
Rivers doesn't care about the so-called home unbeaten, but he cares more about the feelings of the players.
If you are defeated by your opponent like this, it is not a good thing for the current Celtics.
It is valuable to lose, instead of being beaten to death by an opponent like the Magic team.
But now if you want to prevent the magic team's crazy offensive firepower, you really have to find a way to pester Tekoglu. Only by entangling this axis can the magic team's madness stop.
But Pierce's frustration just now has proved one thing. The Turk, who has an advantage in height and has first-class passing skills, is not a little difficult to deal with.
It is already a height of 2.08 meters, and the three-pointer is still very stable. With the passing of the big European man, Tekoglu, who has a very wide field of vision, is simply tailor-made for magic.
Some players are changing themselves for the team, and some are changing for the players, but the relationship between Tekoglu and the Magic is embedded with the most appropriate central axis in this system.
If the offensive firepower of the Magic team this season suddenly exploded because their system is gradually taking shape, then it is better to say that the integration of Tekoglu is nearing completion.
With such a capable guy like him, I guess any opponent will have a headache when he meets the Magic team.
Even Weber said when watching the game on the sidelines, "The Turk's pass is not just a high fight. He can always find loopholes in the defense line and then pass the ball out."
"And there is also a threat to take the ball on his back in the inside line. The retreating shot is very accurate. His height is enough to ensure that he can shoot on Paul's head without scruples, and his footsteps are not slow."
As a master of internal and external policy, Weber quite understands what such a player represents.
It's not so easy to connect a team, but Tekoglu did a good job today. He didn't let Pierce's tough physique interfere with him and sent a total of three assists.
And on the defensive end, this not strong guy also got two rebounds. Although he only hit two shots, as soon as he gets the ball, he can attract the attention of Pierce and Garnett.
Such a containment ability is simply creating shooting opportunities for the rest of the Magic team. With him, others will play more freely, and the Magic team's firepower coverage will be greater.
Rivers looked at the sidelines for a few minutes and thought about how to reduce Tekoglu's containment ability.
Otherwise, if you let this guy continue to play, it may really cause you a lot of trouble. If you let the Magic team throw a feeling, then you really don't have to play this game.
Pause, Rivers watched the score keep rewriting. He must make adjustments, otherwise, the game will not be played, which will make the opponent crazy, then the Celtics will wait to lose.
"Chen Feng, you go and stare at Tekoglu. I don't care what method you use. As long as you can keep an eye on him and don't let this guy continue to provide support to others so calmly, you will complete the task."
Siebodeau wanted to drag Pierce to tell him, but Rivers's words surprised him a little, but he didn't retort, but just waited for the follow-up.
"Head, it's no problem for me to stare. What should I do with the inside line? The muscular man opposite won't let go of the opportunity to get a rebound in the front court. I can't split up. I can jump out and withdraw back.
Chen Feng didn't say anything about Rivers' arrangement, but he was more concerned about how Howard's guy should clean up. It's no problem to jump out and stare at Tekoglu, but who will stare at Howard?
Although he seems to have always had the upper hand on the court just now, Chen Feng also knows that since Howard did not take the initiative to attack, the contribution of the two sides on the defensive end is not much different.
Both of them have a good protection against rebounds. So far, Chen Feng has only had two rebounds in the frontcourt, while Howard has only one. As for defensive rebounds, the two sides have fought for half a catty.
After all, the bounce and confrontation ability of the two people are not much worse. Whoever is on the defensive end will take advantage of it.
But if he jumps out, Chen Feng is worried about whether Howard behind him will be activated. If he is trapped for such a long time, if he succeeds, it must not be worth the loss.
Especially the control of rebounds. If you lose the rebound when the opponent's offensive firepower is so strong, there is really no way to play this game.
"Kevin, you go to the basket and carry Howard's guy. It's the same request. I don't care what you use. You must make him quiet. If you don't want to be so passive all the time, you have to break the axis of the magic team!"
Originally, Thibodeau thought that Rivers would change to a coolie to carry Howard, but he didn't expect that the gentle fat man threw the task directly to Garnett, which was completely a desperate posture.
"Ry, come down and rest for a while." Adjusting Chen Feng's position was just the beginning. Rivers then let Ray Allen rest, and then replaced him with Spreville.
"Your task is to get the guy Arroyo stuck. This boy has broken through too much. I don't want to see such a picture continue." Rivers now not only wants to kill the axis of the magic team, but also wants to contain the accelerators of the other party's two backfields. The existence of Arroyo is also a big threat. .
Rondo went to take care of Nelson, so Spreville's fierce defense was for Arroyo!
No one thought that in this short 100 seconds, Rivers had made continuous adjustments. When the game started again, Arroyo, who had been used to taking the ball to look for opportunities to break through on the periphery, hit a piece of iron plate. Sprewell's tough defensive style stuck to Puerto Rico fiercely. People!
What Arroyo can feel is the faint pain on the ribs. Although the tough Sprewell is old, his old defensive movements are more ferocious than when he was in New York!
Have you thought about it? Yes! But there is only one person and the ball. You can choose by yourself.
At the beginning, he was able to play an iron-blooded defensive attitude with the New York Knicks, and he still expected such an old bastard to be gentle today? Arroyo is not a soft girl, and Spreville doesn't have the idea of pitying the jade.
However, when the scene of Arroyo being restrained just appeared in front of Dafan Gundy, the following scene made Dafan Gandhi's heart tighten.
When Tekoglu, who talked about the high-level response, saw Arroyo trapped, his first reaction was to respond, and Lewis was already running, which was similar to the previous cooperation.
Nielsen and Lewis ran in the position, Arroyo broke through, and he was in the middle of the response, he could vote or pass, which depends on the reaction of the other party.
But Arroyo's pass over there was just thrown to Tekoglu. Before the Turks could grasp the ball, a strong impact was pressed on the front, which made Tekoglu almost get rid of it.
"What the hell! How did that guy follow!" Van Gundy, who was standing on the sidelines, almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, because he looked at a bald head** and rushed to Tekoglu.
"Hey, now your opponent is me. Don't look around. Be careful of being cut off the ball by me." Chen Feng is not kindly reminding Tekoglu, but his appearance really surprised the Turks.
At the beginning, Chen Feng hit Howard's ball. It's not that Tekoglu didn't see it, so he knew how fierce the guy in front of him was. Let such an animal stick to him. God, what is this going on!
"Wow! Doug really dares to think that he used Chen Feng to keep an eye on Tekoglu! It seems that the big man in Turkey is in big trouble!" Barkley saw this scene next to him with a strange cry.
Is it troublesome? Maybe only Tekoglu knows it himself, but as soon as he met Chen Feng, he already felt the oncoming pressure.
However, the Turkish reacted quickly. He lowered his shoulders and shook his body to wipe away from Chen Feng's side. It seemed that he was about to break through.
With a horizontal step, Chen Feng's reaction speed was very fast. With the movement of the other party, he intercepted horizontally, as if he had planned to stop himself on the other party's way.
If you just rely on your body to squeeze, not to mention the audience on the sidelines, even Tekoglu himself knows very well, it is a dream!
Tekoglu didn't plan to rush over like this. All he wanted was Chen Feng's movement. As long as he was given a chance to dodge close defense, the Turks had their own way to solve this problem.
Dodge and retreated. While Chen Feng intercepted the past, the Turks moved their center of gravity back and used the movement of their footsteps to pull away a space enough for him to lift the basketball over his head and throw it out!
Although Tekoglu only scored five points before, this guy has an average shooting rate of more than 40% per game, which is enough to ensure that he will shoot at this angle and create enough threats.
Wh! Tekoglu really wanted to hear such a sound in the next second, but a wind replaced his fantasy, er, it should be a hallucination.
A strong force was attacking the front. The basketball that had not yet been thrown was pushed back, and then took off and flew straight to the half of the Magic team.
At this moment, Tekoglu only felt stunned. He really didn't know how the bald head suddenly flashed in front of him jumped over and how he slapped himself!
? Is that guy a ghost? If Tekoglu can read his mind, he will definitely find that he and Big Van Gundy have the same idea at this moment!!!
If a shadow-like dog skin plaster is attached to you, what you have to do should not be cursed, but to pray.
Pray that he will disappear earlier, otherwise you will always live in nightmares, such as at this moment...
