Finally got another two days off!
After the game, An Luo only had this one thought.
After two games, An Luo scored a total of 38 points.Compared with the regular season, the scoring average has dropped a lot, and the shooting percentage has also dropped.After all, it is the playoffs, and the intensity of the game has increased a lot.For these players, the requirements in all aspects have been improved a lot.
An Luo was actually very uncomfortable.In these two games, he had to put a lot of energy on the defensive end.In these two games, what Donovan asked of him was defense.On the offensive end, he spends more time helping his teammates.The offensive threat he formed on the outside involved the opponent's great defense.Otherwise, Westbrook and Oladipo would not be so easy.
However, although the offensive end has declined a bit.But the defensive effect is not bad, with 6 steals and 1 block in two games.So it's understandable that he was a little tired.What's more, in this game, he defended Hayward most of the time.In the process of competing with this taller and stronger striker than him, An Luo couldn't enjoy the wonderful ability brought to him by the bracelet.
In his postgame press conference, Donovan spoke highly of the defensive efforts of his own players.Especially An Luo and Grant's defense against Hayward, he is full of praise.
"Mr. Donovan, you have won two victories in the entire series. Have you made any targeted adjustments before this?"
"The playoffs are completely different from the regular season. We need each player to do more. Be more active and tough. In fact, we have not made special adjustments, but on the basis of the overall increase in the intensity of the game, We have higher requirements on the defensive end. Fortunately, we are doing well. Our players are very hard on the defensive end, very active, very tough. It is precisely because of this defense that we have taken the lead .”
"How did you limit the opponent's core player, Gordon Hayward? Especially in this game, you only allowed him to score 16 points. How did you do it?"
"Hayward is a very good player. He can do many things on the court: scoring, rebounding, and defense. We must do our best to limit him. In this game, we let Anding go to the third position to mark him. Then let Grant help defend and double-team. We try to cut off his connection with teammates as much as possible, forcing him to use his personal ability to solve the offense. Even if it will empty out a certain other player. We must do this, even if So you need to bear some serious consequences. It will not be more difficult than the last game."
"Mr. Donovan, we all know that Ann is a pure shooting guard. But in this game, he is more often in the third position to defend Hayward. Of course, we have seen Ann's defensive ability, but he It's not dominant at the three. What's your reason for having him there?"
"Ann did a lot of things in this game that he shouldn't be responsible for. But there is no way, every player should give everything for the smoothness of the game. Even if he is just a shooting guard, when we need him, he It will also appear in other positions. As a result, you have also seen that he has that ability and does a good job."
"Russell, how do you feel about getting a triple-double in two consecutive games?"
"Wow, it's an exciting thing to be able to play beautiful data. But it's even more exciting to win the game. In the game, I will exert all my energy and help the team in various ways. Victory. When it all works out really well, the stats are so beautiful. I love it! Win, triple-double. Who doesn't like that? Haha...”
"Ann, we found that you didn't get too many shots in this game, and you didn't show your super three-point shooting ability. Is this the team's arrangement, or did you make it yourself in the game? How about some adjustments?"
"In the game, everyone needs to make their due contribution. Whether it is scoring or defending, I think it is a way to help the team win. In this game, we seized the weakness of the opponent's inside defense, Russell and Victor used their super breakthrough ability to continuously inflict damage on each other, and they made their due contributions. And I used my ability to limit the opponent as much as possible, which is also for the team's victory Make a contribution. We are all playing to win the game, and I agree with the coaching staff on this point."
Two days passed in a flash.During these two days, An Luo not only participated in the necessary training organized by the team, but also participated in an exclusive interview.The reporter for this exclusive interview is Lin Xi, an old acquaintance from "Basketball Weekly".
The focus of this guy's current work is almost entirely on An Luo and Thunder.He has become the team reporter of "Basketball Weekly" stationed in the Oklahoma City Thunder.The little days are much better than when An Luo first met him!
Basically, interviews like this with An Luo will be conducted every once in a while.Its content is nothing more than some recent situation of An Luo.For example, the Thunder's daily training, an outstanding performance in a certain game, or some things gossiped by domestic fans.An Luo is now able to cope with it anyway.
Of course, now An Luo's reputation is getting bigger and bigger.The media that interviewed him is not limited to Lin Xi and the "Basketball Weekly" he works for.It's just that he signed a contract with the other party at the beginning and must fulfill the relevant obligations.
In fact, An Luo liked Teacher Zhang Lili's interview better.
An Luo was interviewed by him when he won the Rookie of the Month for the first time.Regardless of his age, his thinking is very avant-garde.His interview format is also quite casual, without so many links and rules, it is very simple.An Luo just needs to take him around the Chesapeake Energy Arena.Or take him to visit the usual training venues, gyms, locker rooms...
Of course, these things are not the most important.The most important thing is the current game.
Now, what An Luo has to face is the next two away games against the Jazz.He has experienced the power of Utah City more than once this season.The last time I was there is still fresh in my memory!
