Super Lord of the Rings

In the first game, Wang Jun made 12 of 20 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored 31 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists, a near-triple double.

The Warriors tried their best to defend, but still couldn't guard him. He drove the team with breakthrough points.

Curry scored 32 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, becoming the best helper.

Lowry had a team-high 34 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Thompson made 6 of 18 shots, 1 of 7 three-pointers, and only had 15 points and 3 assists.

In the second game, the Kings used the same tactics. Wang Jun was responsible for holding the ball and attacking. The team defended solidly and counterattacked very resolutely.

In this game, Wang Jun caused two fouls on Barnes in the first three minutes of the quarter, sending him to guard the water cooler. Counterattack by adding "arm-throwing loops" to counterattack. It is especially easy to cause fouls against opponents with long arms.

Iguodala came on the field, and his single defense failed to restrict Wang Jun. He used his speed and skills to get past him several times. Iguodala relies on his body to play, and now Wang Jun is faster than him and has a better body.

During the counterattack, Wang Jun took a big step and turned around, leaning on Iguodala to take a shot. He couldn't guard against this move. With similar height and weight, Wang Jun could beat his throw with his bounce.

Wang Jun can now understand why some players with good physical fitness always fail to develop skills. If the physical fitness advantage is great, there is no need for skills at all. Just relying on basic movements can be extremely powerful. It is so cool.

When he first entered the league, he could only do floor flow and technical flow. His foundation was extremely solid, and now he is better at using his body.

On the offensive end, Iguodala was followed by Carroll. It was difficult to create a mobile phone opportunity and followed the turnaround.

When playing against weak teams in the regular season, Iguodala often failed to score 10 points. Against the Kings, he was almost useless offensively.

Iguodala has always lacked talent in shooting, and his excessive muscle mass has negatively affected his touch. The three-point shooting rate seems to be decent, but most of the three-pointers he shoots are open, and the only 20% shooting rate in the right bottom corner is even worse.

His mid-range is a mess, and his hit rate on mid-range jumpers from basically any position is unqualified.

In addition, there is his free throw shooting that has regressed year after year. A swingman at positions 2 and 3 can only provide a free throw shooting rate of about 60%. This time in the playoffs, he was even worse, with only 53% and no deterrent on the offensive end.

Iguodala is already 31 years old, and his physical fitness is almost exhausted.

His contract is 48 million for four years.

Few people say that he is overpaid and incompetent, and there is always the saying "the role of the first brother cannot be reflected in the data", but it would be better to use the money in exchange for an individual.

For example, his role is completely inferior to Conley's 10 million plus Tony Allen's 5 million.

In this game, Thompson was completely beaten by Wang Jun again. As long as he played, Wang Jun would focus on defense and be inseparable. Smith and Aminu would deal with him after the pick-and-roll.

Barnes, Green, and Iguodala were also strictly guarded, and the Kings' swingman advantage was fully demonstrated. It's useless for the Warriors to attack the basket, and they can't kill anyone with 2-point shots.

104 to 86, the Kings relied on amazing defensive intensity to win, leading the total score 2-0.

Wang Jun played 38 minutes, making 10 of 16 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 29 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists and 2 steals.

Most of his assists were drawn from double teams and passed to the inside from close range for scoring. Whiteside scored a huge double-double with 16 points and 17 rebounds.

The top scorer was Curry, who scored 37 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Lowry also had 34 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. The two scored again.

Thompson was almost the same as he was last game, making 6 of 15 shots, 1 of 7 three-pointers, no free throws, and scored 13 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist.

Iguodala played 32 minutes and had only 6 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists.

Cole tried his best to deal with Wang Jun, but still failed to win. Under strict defense, Wang Jun did score less, but his efficiency did not drop, his shooting rate was very high, and he guarded Thompson to death.

Cole didn't show weakness at the press conference, but he lamented in his heart that Wang Jun, who had a balanced offense and defense, was even scarier. The number of his shots has decreased, which makes people feel that he still has some leftover power, which is very helpless.

In Game 3 when the Warriors returned to their home court, Cole began to reuse Greg Monroe and let Noah come off the bench to strengthen the offense.

Monroe is a technical insider who is tall and has long arms. He can play in the low post, pass the ball well in the high post, and his mid-range shooting is not stable. He is much better than Noah.

Monroe's weakness is pick-and-roll defense. The Warriors defend zone and strengthen rotations on the outside.

The Kings played well offensively, but the Warriors were stronger. Thompson broke out this time.

Thompson had a seizure and hit three consecutive three-pointers. Wang Jun's defense was useless. He shoots when he has a little space, is unreasonable, and is not afraid to close his eyes.

Throughout the game, Thompson hit 11 three-pointers, a career playoff high, scoring 48 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, leading the Warriors to a 111-104 comeback.

The Warriors players were only happy for one day, as the Kings defeated the Kings 121-90 in Game 4.

It was Wang Jun's turn to have a fit, making 17 of 28 shots, 10 of 16 three-pointers, 8 of 8 free throws, and scored 52 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.

His change of direction jump shot during the counterattack left his opponent helpless. This move seems simple, but in fact, as long as you control the rhythm of the shot, it is a unique move. It is simple, effective, and difficult to block.

There are two people in the league who are good at this technique, one is Wang Jun and the other is Thunder's Westbrook.

Due to the team's serious injuries, the Thunder failed to make the playoffs, but Wei Shao ranked second in the scoring list with an average of 28.6 points per game. He was able to score so many points mainly by relying on pull-up jumpers.

Thompson's physical fitness is average. Although he is 201cm tall, it takes time to move laterally and take off, and he cannot keep up with Wang Jun's rhythm.

Wang Jun mainly defends Thompson. As long as there is a counterattack, neither Iguodala nor Barnes can help. If Wang Jun does not catch the ball and double-teams, there will be serious openings.

The Kings returned to their home court and defeated the Warriors as soon as the game started.

Curry was having trouble again, hitting 5 three-pointers in a single quarter. The Warriors double-teamed Wang Jun in the opening game. Curry and Whiteside were running without the ball, and they took action after receiving the ball. Wang Jun also assisted Whiteside, who was cutting through the air, for two dunks.

Curry scored 21 points in a single quarter, Wang Jun had 5 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. The two led the team to a 35-22 lead.

The Kings changed their lineup in the second quarter, with Gobert, Smith, Covington, Courtney Lee, and Brooks on the bench, with Carter and Patterson on the bench.

This lineup has three points and speed. Brooks and Gobert played a pick-and-roll and passed Speights twice for layups. They became a surprise player and continued to widen the point difference.

Let Monroe start and Noah come on the bench, but he failed to withstand the Kings' attack.

Speights is 208cm tall and weighs 116kg. His lateral movement speed is too slow and he is still an insider who floats outside and shoots, which wastes his strength advantage.

Kerr realized that this was not going to work, so he replaced Speights to play small-ball tactics. The Kings also immediately replaced Brooks, allowing Wang Jun to return to the court early as a guest point guard.

The Kings wanted to end the battle at home and increased Wang Jun's playing time. He played very selflessly, singled out during counterattacks, and passed the ball when he was double-teamed. In positional battles, he broke through in misplaced positions after pick-and-rolls, attracting the defense to try his best to pass the ball to his teammates inside.

Whiteside's mid-range shot, which he has practiced for many years, came in handy. In the third quarter, he scored four jump shots, and made two cuts to the basket to catch the ball for singles, causing a foul on Barnes, and the score was 2+1.

At the end of the three quarters, the Kings led by 31 points and the game entered garbage time.
