The Warriors didn't expect that Iguodala was doing well, but the bench time still didn't have the upper hand at all. Because there is also a guy on the other side who is "playing dead" in the regular season. Cole didn't expect that. Pierce, this season's regular season performance is remarkable, there are not many highlights, and even his presence in the regular season is not as good as Nick. Poplar. But when it comes to the playoffs, you look at it again, and he suddenly looks different from the regular season, and the tactical position on the bench is more than that of the Knicks. Poplar. The average data per game is also "rubbing" upward. This is the so-called "family has an old age, if there is a treasure".

Signing them, to put it to the extreme, is for the playoffs.

They themselves are well aware of this.

Therefore, the regular season also tries to preserve physical fitness and play, and the playoffs will be bigger.

He and Iguodala led the team against each other on the bench, which no one expected. This is also true for Lakers fans. After all, Pierce's performance in the regular season was really unremarkable. In the first few rounds, because of the relatively easy play, Pierce can only be said to have played steadily, and has not yet reached the level that people remember. Until this scene, he suddenly brushed a wave of presence.

Many new Lakers fans are still asking, who is the hot man? That's pretty good. You can play against Iguodala.

Then he was "ridiculed" and popularized by a group of old fans: This man was one of the men we hated the most. One used to say "I'm the best player in the world, not Kobe". A guy who blocked the 24th Trifecta. A guy who got the FMVP in '08. You say he's playing pretty well?

Iguodala was at the peak of his life and Pierce was not on the same level at all, okay.

This means that Pierce is old, otherwise, this group of duels will be blown up.

The first time off the bench failed to overtake, and Kerr made a special change. Nonsense, at this time, at the top of the Western Finals, the opponent is still known as the strongest defensive team in history. What effect can ordinary tactics have on a big reversal? Didn't you just try them all? It didn't work out well. Therefore, it is necessary to come up with a trick.

You have to be bold.

How? Quite simply, he made a special layout. Green, who holds the ball with the top arc, is the main attacker.

This wave of changes is very bold, although Green is also a star now, but he is strong in defense and all-around, and it is by no means offensive. And Green's year isn't last year. Last year, Kerr used Green to hit like this, and Green hit the iron boom. So that this tactic simply can't be played. But this year is different. Green is accurate on three-pointers this year. The regular season was a career-high 38.8 percent. The playoffs have also reached about 37%. So this year, the Warriors are exceptionally strong on the outside. Green's three-pointer was crucial.

If his three-point shooting can be steady, the overhead strategy becomes impossible to let go, so that the Warriors can easily tear apart the opponent's defense. But if Green can't do a three-pointer. It can't be done. Last year, for example, Green shot only 26 percent from three-point range. He averaged four or five shots per game. That must be lethal enough. It's okay to let it go. The Cavaliers did just that, trying to let go of Green, and then gaining a certain amount of defensive liberation. It's a shame that this season is different, Green is accurate on three-pointers, so it's hard not to leave him alone. You go out to defend, and the number 4 can't stop him at all. How tall is Green? It's definitely the speed and frequency of the guards, which is why the Warriors' regular season this year will be so irresistible.

Invincible.

Now, Kerr directly let Green take the lead in attacking, and Green also competed, hitting several three-point shots, which made the Lakers a little careless. Neither Yi Jianlian nor Randall could stop him. Moreover, the continuous scoring has also greatly improved Green's athletic state, and the overall play has become more aggressive. Of course, the Lakers can play Covington, but now both sides are competing, and they are not easily on the strongest lineup. In this way, the Lakers have also made changes. Larry. Brown with the extremely athletic Josh. Smith went up to the top.

Speed and power don't suffer.

And, Larry. It's definitely not that simple.

Some people will ask, can someone like Smith take on this defensive responsibility? He was used to wandering before, and it was indeed difficult. But after Larry. Brown's tuning for the entire season. He was clearly defensively reinstated and defensively revived. Why talk about recovery instead of improving? Because of this guy, the defense was originally very strong. It's just that I'm slowly scattering and staying in the bad team for a long time, so I gradually forget how to defend. You think it's a joke? NO~ If I tell you, Josh. Smith has won the NBA All-Defensive Team, can you believe it? But it's true. And that year, he was only 24 years old.

And in the original time and space, he was 34~35 years old, and his athletic ability was still very strong, not to mention that he was only 30~31 now, and he was still the golden age of basketball players. So after so long, it's time for him to wake up. Larry. Among the substitutes Brown this season, Covington has spent the most time on the bench, and then Josh. Smith too. This guy is obviously a defensive genius-level player, but because he has played in a bad team for too long, he has forgotten how to defend. What a waste of talent.

Fortunately, he is still young now, and his athletic ability is still online at this age, so he will not decline too much. Plus on the offensive end, he doesn't need to work hard, just defend with all his strength and do a good job in 3D. Is he suitable? It's a good fit. It's okay if you can't change it if you are hot-headed. Just show his best defensive side. Green has just made a few performances of feeling good about himself, and the previous ball was even easily broken through because Yi Jianlian cared too much about his three points, and played a beautiful toss. So at the moment, Green is gaining momentum.

A lot of people see Larry. After Brown's change of formation, they all thought it was a joke.

Really? The old man has spent so long training people, do you really think it's a joke? It's really mud that can't support the wall, and the old man has already kicked him off, okay? Stupid people, let me show you the results of the old man's training.

Don't dare to say anything else, the defense is stimulated, and the old man is absolutely deserved.

The Lakers also talked about it after the game, and Josh was a defensive beast tonight.

It's a unanimous thing.

Green also wanted a three-point feint for this ball, and then a big stride to the inside to engage in a small throw. His form tonight was fed by the back-to-back three-pointers he had just made. Coupled with the fact that the head coach appointed him to play the main game, this also made Green feel full of confidence. Hey, hey, see? Brother Splash is in trouble now, but you still have to rely on your brother!

Brother is also one of the giants of this team.

Watch me perform tonight!

Brother's hand feels very good, too.

Then let's get 30~40 points in one go. Green, this guy is indeed a playoff scorer better than the regular season. His highest career scoring was in the playoffs. And the top two are both playoffs. He also made eight three-pointers in the playoffs. So, don't underestimate him. When the Warriors don't play well in the playoffs, they tend to step up.

Green is also one of them.

He saw Josh. Smith was so much taller than him, thinking that he was like playing small and big, just get over it in one go. Who knew that the ball rushed in and just shot, and it was hit by a big hot pot. The ball was covered very cleanly and beautifully, and then the Lakers Beverley picked up a bargain and ran straight over to complete a one-man fast break.

Green was a little annoyed, he was a big mouth, and he was facing Josh. Smith squirted, "You dare to cover me? You little sub! ”

Josh. Before Smith could speak, Tang Qian helped him and said, "Spray back Josh, he's just an ordinary blue-collar worker." ”

I am...... Blue collar??? Can you please stop farting!!!! My assists and playmaking skills were eaten by you? Did you eat my score in this game? Who do you look down on? Before Green could speak, Smith, who had received Tang Qian's support, also puffed up his chest and said to Green, "It's you!" You're as clumsy as a clown in this scoring technique! ”

"You're old! Dare to spray me back? You wait for me! I'll have a ghost if I don't blow it up later! "Green's big mouth league is known for not stopping his mouth. Everyone is used to this, and it's not normal if he doesn't speak. The Lakers missed the ball, which was a good opportunity, Tang Qian divided the ball out, and missed the outside mid-range.

After the Warriors get the ball, they still attack Green, and Green chooses whether to pass or attack.

But before he could touch the ball, he had already decided what to do with it.

He punched Josh. Smith, which made Kerr frown a little, and sure enough, the ball was interfered with and destroyed at the moment of attack and defense. Looking at the slow motion, it should be considered a cap. However, the ball was fouled. Green was pardoned when he heard the whistle, because he was defended twice in a row or blocked, his momentum and face had to be cut off. So this whistle saved him.

so that he can taunt Josh instead. Smith, look, little scumbag, thank you for sending me to the free throw line, I'm scoring again.

Green was also more aggressive, making 2 of 2 free throws, and he was still facing Josh when he hit the back defense. Smith chattered, and Smith was very angry, because he was not a good temper, and he had never done any less things back then. So he was not convinced by Green.

You're the third person on the Warriors, and you really think of yourself as a big star?

The Lakers attacked, missed the mid-range shot after blocking and dismantling, and the rebound was ...... I was taken by Tang Qian again! Because the Warriors haven't played Bogut yet, they can only use Festus for the time being. Unconsciously, Tang Qian has become a very good physical fitness column in the playoffs. It's a dream for ordinary players to compare their fitness and playing time with them. Therefore, he saw the landing point of the ball, successfully reversed the position, and then saw the Warriors' help defense and intended to play the ball immediately.

The basketball was 45 degrees away from the three-point line on the right side.

Josh. Smith catches the ball and shoots.

Josh. Smith's three-pointers were average in the regular season this season, but he was a god in the playoffs.

Similar to the original time and space, it actually reached 5 percent! In this year's playoffs, the Lakers' bench is full of sharpshooters. One by one, they all played far beyond the usual. However, there are objective reasons as well. The Lakers' interior killing ability this season is too strong, so whether it is a pass or a second pass, it is easy to have a big open opportunity. In this way, there is a certain reason for the shooting to come up. It's not some crazy jack projection.

But Rao is like this, 5 into three points, the vacancy is really strong.

Hit.

Josh. After Smith scored, he clenched his fist at Green, and that's how these Lakers players are saying it right now. Be hard enough. You can't afford to lose morale. A strong comeback. Green and Smith were in a wrangling affair, and the ball was a pullaway singles situation. It looks like Green is going to be determined to suppress the latter. Pulling the singles into it is the best effect.

What about the Lakers? is also very cooperative, directly help pull away, and let the two people go to the top arc one-on-one.

One-on-one, Green is really a bit overestimating himself, his shooting percentage and scoring have gone up this season, and his points per game have reached a career high. However, that was only an average of 14 points per game. There is absolutely no breaking the boundaries of blue-collar workers. Moreover, this is still the data that the Splash Brothers have attracted too much defensive pressure. Just beating himself is complete.

10 points per game is more.

So this one-on-one, Green broke through with a triple threat, and then tried to squeeze the opponent away with his body, and then shot again. As a result, Tang Qian didn't have time to jump up to help defend the block, a figure beside Green directly rose into the air, and then preemptively became a "volleyball hat"! The Sideways Cap flew the ball! The ball went straight out of the bottom line.

I said~ so violent???

Tang Qian himself was a little confused.

This is still my impression of Josh. Smith??? You can't make a mistake??? Luck? In good condition?

After landing, Josh. Smith yelled, very scene-like. Then he said to Green, "You're better than me for a hat?" You're ten more streets away! James isn't as strong as my block, you know? Children's shoes! "That's bragging, right? Well, I guess a lot of people think so. But if you're a long-time fan of the old age, then you know for sure. This is really not Josh. Smith was simply pretending. The average number of blocks per game in this guy's career is close to 2! What is the concept? This is still the data after he was messing around and didn't defend much. So it pulled down a big bit.

Back then, he was known as the strongest blocker on the outside, not fake.

In the first six years of his career, he averaged about 2.5 blocks per game. There are also 2.1 data for the sixth year. He also averaged 1.8 blocks per game in his ninth career. Just ask. LeBron. Has James ever reached a single-season block in his career? Last season Josh. Smith averaged 1.4 blocks per game. In the first half of the season for the Pistons, they averaged 1.7 blocks per game. James? Have you ever averaged 1.2 blocks per game? Josh. Smith averaged 2.9 blocks per game at his strongest, close to three! Then there is a season of 2.8 and 2.6. You have to know what it is to know what it is to have an outside player to average about 3 blocks per game. This is still a season's data, seventy or eighty games, no moisture at all. He josh. Smith is going to say that I'm much better than James blocks, who would dare to say a "no"? So Green? And he's not a level blocker either.

Besides, he is a player who has really won the defensive formation, if it weren't for the fact that his brain is too easy to heat up, it is estimated that he will have to defend the formation all year round.

Or how Larry. Brown thinks so highly of him. So much effort has been spent on him this season?

Josh. Smith also felt the harmonious atmosphere of the Lakers and the importance of the head coach, coupled with the team's defensive focus, he finally began to dive back to polish the defense or call it a recovery defense. After a full season, he finally found his defensive touch. Not to mention that it can be fully recovered, but it is also fast. In the end, the team's overall system is defense-oriented, and Larry. The team responsibilities that Brown gave him were also blockers. And then on the offensive end, he didn't need to waste physical energy, so this game had the scene just now.

If it weren't for the referee blowing a foul, he would have covered Green 3 times in a row!

And Josh. Smith wasn't like that in the regular season, and the playoffs were just as strong!

The highest average per game is also 2.9! Here's the proof!

Outside block, he is actually superhuman-level!

As an outside player, he has been in the top three in the block list for 3 consecutive seasons and the top two in the block list for 2 consecutive seasons. Just talking about the capper, comparing James with him is tantamount to humiliating him. In terms of two people, it is not at the same level. So, Larry. Brown is so confident that he can beat the Warriors in the playoffs. Playing small-ball defense, they are no match either. Over-ball defense? Not to mention that.

The gap is even greater.

After the first half, Kerr was also a little gloomy, he didn't expect to come up with so many tricks and still fall behind, which is definitely not good news for the Warriors. In the locker room, he had to think of some tricks again, otherwise the home team would lose 2 in a row. The morale blow to the team and the players is no small thing.

That would be a bad situation.

Cole didn't want that to happen.

Moreover, he felt that he underestimated the strength of the Lakers' bench, not a little, but a big underestimate.

originally thought that the Warriors' bench was the first in the league, not to mention Iguodala, but also found Livingston. As a result, when I turned my head, the Lakers were not bad. Covington, Beverley, Pierce, and now a Josh has popped up again. Smith, plus the big shooter Yi Jianlian...... How dare you say that the Warriors have the best bench depth on the bench in the league?

Do you want to be the first?

With a somewhat heavy heart, Kerr led the team into the tunnel at Oracle Stadium. He's really going to have to figure it out at halftime. Otherwise, it will be difficult to win this game. And the series will be very difficult to play.

PS: That's right, this chess piece was also arranged by Xiaozi before, how about it, I'm scared. The strongest outside blocker, how many people know his brilliance in the field of blocking? Alas, now, the Warriors have reached the blood mold~
