Chapter Seventy-Two: The Prototype of Peak Control

How is Paul's three-point ability, Paul's three-point is very accurate and solid, so to speak, Paul has no weaknesses other than being short. Draymond Green, who was posting to defend Zhiming, immediately abandoned Wei Zhiming to defend Paul.

But it was too late, Paul's three-pointer had already been shot, and although his shot was slow, the ball went in steadily.

Of the three assists, Wei Zhiming has already got three assists, and the gap between the Clippers and the Warriors is only 4 points.

Seeing this, Luke Wharton couldn't sit still, he called a timeout, and got ready to set it up.

Luke Wharton is the acting coach of the Warriors, and after Stephen Kerr's injury in October, he became the acting head coach of the Warriors.

He's under a lot of pressure, Steve Kerr won the championship as a rookie head coach last year, and this year he's rested with an injury, so it's up to Luke Wharton to see what he can do.

The Warriors won the first four games, and this game was the biggest opponent of the Warriors, and at this moment, Reaves used a five-small lineup against the Warriors' five-small lineup, which actually narrowed the Clippers' score to 10. Especially the yellow-skinned rookie, who came out of nowhere, actually blocked Curry, stealed Draymond Green, and had three consecutive assists on the offensive end. It's all like in a dream, it's incredible!

Luke Wharton called the crowd over, and he was on the tactical board and analyzed the Clippers' offense in the last round.

After explaining, he immediately pointed to the No. 20 rookie of the Clippers and said seriously: "You saw just now, it was this yellow-skinned rookie who assisted Jamal, assisted Blake, and assisted Chris, and the Clippers scored eight points in just three rounds, which has a lot to do with this yellow-skinned No. 20 player." ”

"Drummond, you're going to have to go up and stick to him in a moment, press the No. 20 rookie, put pressure on him, and not let him get an easy assist." Luke Wharton whispered, Draymond Green's face turned red, he nodded, and his expression was murderous: "Don't worry, leave it to me." ”

"The Clippers are mimicking our four-man lineup, and at their core, Chris, gave up ball control and gave the ball to the yellow-skinned rookie. As you have just seen, the yellow-skinned 20's pass is very penetrating, his height and reach determine the quality of his passing, and with his awareness, our four-man squad is up against the opposition. ”

The Warriors' players are all dignified, their four-man lineup has their own pride, they can be defeated by other tactics, but they can't be defeated by the same four-small lineup.

On the Clippers' side, Reaves patted Wei Zhiming's shoulder fiercely, and his smile was all written on his face: "Wei, it's good, you can also ask Paul in the future how to adapt tactics to the court." I'm optimistic that you can be our second tactical starting point for the Clippers. ”

Paul is also full of smiles, if the Clippers don't play on the court, these people won't play, but he can't play the whole court, if Wei Zhiming can become the second tactical initiator, then when he rests, he can control the direction of the Clippers aircraft carrier.

Immediately afterwards, Reeves told Paul to let Wei Zhiming continue to control the ball, and through this game, Reeves finally fixed Wei Zhiming's position, which was the tactical initiation point of the second team. The second team's possession power forward peak. The second lineup's peak control.

After playing the court, Wei Zhiming did not live up to Reeves, although it was the first time he did this kind of thing on the court, but he was against Draymond Green, listened to Draymond Green's words, learned Draymond Green's methods, and then slowly figured it out by himself.

However, because the Warriors' acting coach Luke Wharton took extra care of Wei Zhiming, Wei Zhiming learned a painful lesson, and four mistakes in the second half of the quarter made Wei Zhiming's heart ache, but Wei Zhiming has learned well after paying tuition a few times.

It's a freak, and even Draymond Green has to admit that this guy is so quick to adapt to the role that he can even call Paul to block him and then let Paul pick himself out.

At the end of the second quarter, because of Wei Zhiming's unskillfulness and the painful lesson of paying tuition, the Warriors led the Clippers by 9 points into the third quarter.

In the second quarter, Wei Zhiming had 5 assists, 4 turnovers, 6 rebounds, 1 block, and 1 steal in a single game, which simply blinded everyone's eyes, and as for his score on 1 of 2 shots, no one cared.

"Oh, the Chinese guard is a freak, he stole the trick of Dirk Novis Foundation Chicken Independence in his last game against the Mavericks. This time against the Warriors, he stole Draymond Green's mastery again, and when Paul was still on the floor, he actually became the Clippers' tactical initiation point, although he had 4 turnovers, but he had 5 assists in a single quarter, and his height and arm span were simply crushing in the small man lineup, and 6 rebounds in a single quarter were a good interpretation of his rebounding ability. Kenny Smith said in surprise.

The difficulty of the Warriors' four-small lineup is that there is no center or power forward in the league who can be the starting point of tactics, and the Clippers have picked up China's No. 20 rookie guard this year, which is comparable to Draymond Green in terms of tactical initiation.

No, it's not just the tactical initiation that, he's not inferior to Draymond Green physically, he's much faster than Draymond Green, and he has a soft shot that can reach beyond the three-point line.

Wei Zhiming's performance surprised everyone around the world who watched the game, and the American Clippers fans were very excited, this rookie was so surprising that countless fans remembered this rookie.

And the domestic is simply collective, Wei Zhiming can snatch Paul's possession in the game, this is like a dream, when did Wei Zhiming become so strong, Wei Zhiming dared to let Paul play without the ball?

At the beginning of the third quarter, Wei Zhiming was replaced by Jordan Jr., and Crawford was replaced by Stephenson. Reeves has given Wei Zhiming time to fight, and he can be a tactical starting point, but no matter how good his passing is, it is not enough to see in front of Paul.

What does Paul eat with, and his organizational skills, can be said to be the strongest in the active service. So Wei Zhiming can let Paul play without the ball for almost half a quarter, which is already a great honor.

The Clippers, who returned to the starting lineup in the last game, immediately changed their playing style, and Paul once again became the point guard and captain of the Clippers.

The Warriors' lineup is still five small, the Clippers choose to defend Curry alone, Paul controls the ball, and they focus on the interior and the success rate.

It seems that the last game was confused by Reaves's tactics, and after switching to the regular lineup, the Warriors were a little unaccustomed to it, coupled with the cold hand of the Splash Brothers, the Warriors were beaten by the Clippers 8-0, and the Clippers and the Warriors were only one point apart.

Luke Wharton immediately called a timeout, and after assigning his tactics, he sat on the sidelines with an anxious look on his face.

The Warriors and the Clippers were evenly matched, and the Warriors fought back immediately after a timeout, but the Clippers were not far behind, and in the third quarter, the two sides were still inseparable.

The difference between the two sides is 78-79 by just one point.

At the timeout, Reeves replaced the main man, and he brought on his own sons, Austin Reeves, Jamal Crawford, Paul Pearce, Josh Smith and Wei Zhiming.

Reeves looked at Wei Zhiming, he said with a smile: "Give the ball to Wei Zhiming and let Wei Zhiming handle it." ”

Austin Reeves' eyes widened as he looked at his father with a look of disbelief.

Hand over the ball yourself? However, he thought that even Paul handed over the ball in the second quarter, and he could only accept it helplessly.
