Guard With a Knife

Snoopy blocked Josh Smith's ball and became the top five goals of the night without any suspense. Even Kobe Bryant's lore golden double gun's buzzer-beating three-pointer was suppressed behind him.

Some critics even emphasized that this is the strongest block in the 2008-2009 season.

Of course, some people think he is too arbitrary. Because, the scene of Snoopy overturning Gortat in the last game was also considered by many people to be the best block of the season. But... in the second game, Josh Smith, who had vowed, knelt in front of Snoopy.

This incident hit Josh Smith very hard. His teammates revealed that he didn't even have dinner or take a shower that night. However, Smith denied the matter the next day, and repeatedly emphasized in front of the media: "This block will not affect my career, nor will it reduce my love for basketball. On December 21, I will Atalanta got back the lost face. Again, the thing about my knee hitting the floor was just a coincidence."

At the same time, his teammate Zaza Pachulia also emphasized that his fall on all fours was a coincidence.

But soon some experts analyzed the real cause of his fall.

It turned out that he was trying to prevent Snoopy from turning around with his dirty little tricks. When Snoopy suddenly retreated, he lost his center of gravity and fell embarrassingly. After the conclusion of this analysis was reached, he immediately became a laughing stock. Although there is no proverb in the United States that if you steal a chicken, you will lose a handful of rice, but for these people who secretly do evil but reap the consequences, the same ridicule will be exposed anywhere in the world.

In the early morning of the next day, when Doug walked into the locker room of the Heat's training facility, his teammates were discussing the news of the battle between the DT Party and the DM Party last night, and by the way, Josh Smith was brought out to criticize.

These two things respectively get a lot of space in today's media. The entertainment media focused on the fierce competition between the dt party and the dm party. The basketball media is discussing who will be the first person to complete dunks on Snoopidoo: after all, he has only played two games and has already completed two blocks that can be crowned king in a single season. This is undoubtedly a huge stimulus for those top swingmen.

Snoopy himself, however, has no interest in either of these things.

He prefers to focus on training.

Today is the first time he has been formally assigned to the guard group for training.

Although before that, Dwyane Wade's exclusive trainer trained him for a few days. But when he officially joined the training, he was still 'full of ugly faces'. He couldn't even complete the simplest quick change of direction.

"The problem with you now is that when you take a step, your breakthrough can only go in a straight line.

And when the opponent follows up and double-teams, you can only pass the ball, and even the success rate of the pass will drop rapidly. "

"You can't even do the simplest crotch change, and you can't control your body to complete the swing between marches."

When David Cole, the coach in charge of the guard group, looked at Dug, his eyes were full of pessimism: "You must speed up your progress, otherwise, when the opponent studies you thoroughly, you will hit the rookie wall very quickly. I guess, you You probably don't want to be content with just being a rotation defensive big man, do you?"

David Cole's words gave Doug a great stimulus.

After joining the NBA, Doug has realized how fierce the competition in the NBA is, and this kind of competition does not only exist on the court, but the competition off the court is even more intense.

Each team has a dedicated team of videographers to analyze the characteristics of each player of the opponent. If you maintain the current situation, it will be easy for other teams to analyze the technical play. When they know that their breakthrough can only go in a straight line, their defense will definitely make corresponding strategies. At that time, not only will the breakthrough be limited, but the passing effect will also be greatly reduced. In addition, he has no offensive ability...Three threats of passing, cutting and shooting are equivalent to being completely locked. At that time, I really can only go back to the restricted area to make a living.

Compared with Snoopy's difficulty in the guard group, Michael Beasley is in the forward group, like a fish in water.

Even Dwyane Wade sincerely admired in the training camp: Michael Beasley's talent is far above me.

Although this sentence is exaggerated, it is not difficult to see how amazing and talented he is.

Spoelstra looked particularly painful at this time, because he had no idea how to implement the "internal horse racing" mechanism. In his thinking, Michael Beasley is the emperor superstar, and Snoopy is just an inside coolie who has just shown some ability to hold the ball.

You must know that Michael Beasley has 7 exclusive tactics in the tactical manual, second only to Dwyane Wade. But Snoopidoo only had one, and it was reluctantly added by the CEO personally escorting him.

How does this create competition?

However, he still worked hard.

For example, on the training ground, he arranged for these two people to fight alone.

However, Michael Beasley was still joking, not serious at all.

Although Doug's defense made him a little uncomfortable, but his offensive skills are natural, given him enough time, he can completely wipe out Doug.

Doug is actually very satisfied with this arrangement, even though he was beaten 11:0 or 11:1 by Beasley every time.

But he can feel that his defensive footwork is gradually improving, although his physical flexibility still can't keep up when defending Beasley's sudden change of direction. But in fact... the footsteps are not too disadvantaged. His pace has been successfully turned on, now he just lacks flexibility.

On this point, Beasley actually has a deep understanding. He found it increasingly difficult to score goals.

Therefore, after the training, he took the initiative to hook Doug's shoulder: "Listen, Snoopy! We must join hands in the future. I will attack and you will defend. We will be invincible. Don't worry, I will definitely I won't treat you badly, and I will give you half of it if you win the best rookie."

Beasley seemed extraordinarily generous.

But in fact, everyone knows that this guy doesn't want to do any dirty work. When he's on the court, he only does two things: score and rebound. He doesn't care about the other things like covering, blocking, blocking people and so on. He didn't even bother to memorize the tactical line, when defensive coach Keith Smart made cryptic comments to him.

He told Coach Smart bluntly: "Offense is the best defense. When I stand on the court, I am the strongest defensive player!"

then.

In his career debut, he scored 3 of 15 shots, 9 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 4 turnovers. During his confrontation with Prince, he was completely invisible. He is bewildered by the ubiquitous long arms of the spider.

And the Detroit Pistons also unscrupulously swept away the victory at the American Airlines Center Arena, although everyone has bad-mouthed them in the past two years, and the positive statement that the Pistons have become a thing of the past.

But at the Heat's home court, they still told the Heat with tenacious defense that Jiang was still old and hot.

91:86.

This is the full score.

Snoopy played 21 minutes in this game and only recorded 2 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.

In terms of numbers alone, it's abysmal.

But from the point of view of efficiency value, he is the only positive efficiency 1 of the Heat.

Antonio McDyess, Rasheed Wallace and Kwame Brown competed with him in turn, except that he couldn't defend Rasheed Wallace's straight-arm shot. Kwame Brown and Antonio McDyess failed to please, and Antonio McDyess also got a solid block.

However, this game also exposed his problems.

When facing a seasoned defense in the penalty area, his breakthrough efficiency has been greatly reduced, and his pass success rate has also dropped a lot.

Among them, in the penultimate minute of the fourth quarter, the ball passed to the baseline Mario Chalmers was directly intercepted by Prince, which is considered to be the turning point of the Heat's loss.

Although Dwyane Wade told Dugger after the game, it doesn't matter, it's just a process.

But Doug still feels guilty, thinking that he has dragged down the team.

After the game, he practiced hard for 2 hours before driving home.

Two days later, Miami has the Milwaukee Bucks at home.

The team that drafted Doug and sent Doug to Miami was unsurprisingly defeated. They didn't have any ambitions for the game. From the beginning of the first quarter of the game, he was led by the nose by Dwyane Wade, and Michael Beasley also showed his true qualities as the number one stat madman in the college league...not only in the middle distance, but also in defensive rebounds. Got 14 with the help of Doug.

In the end, the No. 2 man scored a super large number of 19 points and 16 rebounds.

The No. 8 pick looked low-key and balanced, with 4 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal.

This kind of comparison made Spoelstra deepen the impression that Michael Beasley and Snoopidoo are not competitors at all. He now believes that Michael Beasley and Sean Marion are the two people with the most intense flavor of gunpowder. , After playing the Bucks, the two almost fought in the locker room.

The cause was that when Sean Marion, Michael Beasley, and Snoopy were on the court at the same time, the two had a quarrel because of the uneven distribution of backcourt rebounds. They all think that Snoopy has a good position, and it is more advantageous to go in and grab rebounds by himself.

When the quarrel was brought to the locker room, it was almost a fight. If Snoopy hadn't stood up and said something fair, Beasley's bench would have smashed Marion's head.

Of course, the folding chair in Marion's hand is also very likely to sweep Beasley's left waist.

"In the future, whoever is closer will grab the rebound."

Snoopy became a peacemaker.

Both sides gave Snoopy face. This is something Spoelstra didn't expect. He found that... Now Snoopy is more and more becoming the third person in the locker room. What he said was often well executed, and sometimes on the court, even Daequan Cook would follow his instructions to run back from the baseline.

When he was puzzled, Keith Smart told him the answer: "Because Snoopy is the fairest, when he goes on the court, he never brings the relationship off the court to the court. He always follows whose chance is better." He’s got the mentality to pass the ball to, and he’s willing to screen for everyone. That’s the kind of thing that wins the hearts of the players.”

Spoelstra nodded.

With that, it's time to embark on a Western road trip.

Now his head is hurting more and more, how can he complete Mr. Pat Riley's task? Snoopy has reduced the number of possessions himself, how do I make him compete with Michael Beasley?

He found it very difficult.

When the Heat boarded the plane to San Francisco, Taylor Swift was confronted by Joey Jonathan at a concert in Los Angeles. In an instant, the two became headlines in the entertainment industry!
