Chapter 697: Hell Mode (Fourth Update!) )

"It's nothing in a game, don't have a psychological burden, the Warriors can't be so accurate every game."

After the game, Williams encouraged the players again.

After he finished speaking, the morale of the team recovered a little.

The players all went back to the hotel to rest, but Jokic, Holiday and a few others stayed behind to practice in the arena.

Tang Tian also stayed, but he didn't practice, but watched the game video repeatedly in the locker room alone.

The more he looked, the deeper his brow furrowed.

Like Williams said, there are seven games in a series, and losing one is really nothing.

And this is still the home court of the Warriors, and if they win, the problem is the Warriors.

But this is a big defeat, and the real reason why Tang Tian frowned was that he confirmed one thing after watching the game repeatedly, the Pelicans can't beat the Warriors now.

The Warriors' offense is phenomenal, and it was the first team to use the three-point shot as their primary offensive weapon and play efficiently.

And in addition to the three-point shot, there is also an infinite air cut tactical assistance, which can ensure that the team will not fall into a scoring drought when the outside feels bad.

In a more figurative phrase, it is the Princeton tactic that increases the proportion of three-point shots, and the strength of the tacit understanding is directly promoted to S, and there is no solution when it comes to the hand.

This is the most perfect system meets the most suitable person after the handcheck rule is abolished.

So Williams encouraged the players to say that the Warriors would feel like they would fall, not only passively, but also only self-comforting.

Defending the outside, the Warriors will cut in, not defend the outside, and the first game is an example.

The Warriors' offense couldn't be completely choked, and that was something he knew in his last life.

Now unless Jokic can build muscle in an instant, and both he and Davis score more efficiently, killing the Warriors with offense to offense.

Otherwise, it's really difficult to win a series against the Warriors.

Tang Tian was still watching the video, and Jokic took the lead in finishing the practice and returning to the locker room.

Seeing that Tang Tian hadn't left yet, he sat down in surprise and chatted with Tang Tian for a while.

Tang Tian knew that Jokic had a high ball quotient, and the two of them chatted and chatted unconsciously about the team's tactics.

'It's really hard for them to defend, but can we start with the details and try to keep the attacking tempo as low as possible so that at least we can have chances.'

Jokic doesn't have a good tactical idea either, but his understanding of the game is a different angle.

Tang Tian nodded thoughtfully, he considered the angle of the game from the perspective of the coach and the strategic level, and what Jokic said was purely at the level of the game.

But it is true that the Pelicans still have a good chance of playing a decisive moment without defeating the opponent at the tactical and strategic level, and simply fighting the details.

As long as he can play to the decisive moment, he has the ability to change the game.

There was a two-day break between the first and second games of the Western Finals, and Tang Tian talked to Williams about this issue the next day.

Williams heeded his advice and adjusted the training content to the full court, focusing on the details of the game.

The attitude of the players in training is also very serious, and they will definitely not be willing to be defeated like this all the way to the Western Finals.

While the Pelicans were actively preparing for Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals, the second Game of the Eastern Conference Finals had already been played.

The Bulls beat the Cavaliers 94-88 in Game 2 to turn the score 1-1.

With Noah on one side and Love on the other, the Bulls have theoretically lost more.

But Butler and Rose combined for 50 points to give the Bulls the last laugh.

The result of this game also confirmed one thing even more, the Cavaliers who lacked Love really lost a lot of strength.

The next night, the second game of the Western Conference Finals resumed at Oracle Arena.

The Pelicans are still in high spirits, and it can be seen that after the adjustments, they were not affected by the first big loss.

The players on the Warriors' side are also in good shape, and Curry has three points in the player tunnel before the opening time, and he is really a representative of the metamorphosis now.

Neither side made any changes to their starting line-ups.

Bogut jumped to beat Davis and officially kicked off the second game of the Western Conference finals.

Curry continued his excellent play from the previous game, coming up and making a long-range three-pointer.

However, the Pelicans clearly pressed the tempo this time.

Tang Tian forced a foul on Thompson at the beginning of the game, and made two free throws for the Pelicans to get off to a good start.

Thompson's three-pointer from the outside didn't score, and the Pelicans weren't in a hurry to fight back, and Jokic was in a low post and misplaced to eat Green to score.

These rounds have become a microcosm of the Pelicans' first half, and their style of play is very similar to the Grizzlies they played before, that is, desperately pressing the rhythm of the Warriors.

The Warriors' offensive efficiency is still not low, but after the number of rounds is reduced, the score is significantly less than before.

At halftime, the score was 50-47.

The Warriors still lead, but the margin is negligible.

The Pelicans' tactics have obviously worked, and if they continue to play at this pace, considering Tang Tian's key ball ability, they obviously have a better chance this time.

But only if they can withstand the Warriors' signature wave of the third quarter.

Back in the third quarter, the home fans were in high spirits.

The game had four quarters, and the third quarter was the Warriors' top and the fans' favorite to watch.

Kerr also took the initiative to change the lineup in the third quarter, he removed Bogut from the starter and replaced him with Iguodala, and directly put on a five-small lineup.

The Pelicans' strategy in the first half forced Kerr to show all his hole cards.

In the second half, the Pelicans attacked first, and they still played inside, and Green defended Jokic on the inside.

This time, Green withstood and successfully defended Jokic's offense, and also protected the defensive rebound.

After the defense, the Warriors directly played defensive counterattacks, and the configuration of the five small was very fast.

The Pelicans retreated quickly, but still couldn't keep up.

It's not a question of positivity, it's a limitation of the squad.

Curry received a three-point few in the front court, then shoved the ball towards Iguodala, who cut in the middle, and the latter scored with a one-handed smash.

Because of his outstanding three-point shooting ability, many people will forget Curry's passing, and his passing is also absolutely historic.

Tang Tian asked for the ball in the low post, and the Warriors directly assisted in advance and did not give Holiday a chance to put the ball in.

And when Holiday wanted to shoot himself, Curry was quick to defend himself.

The five-small lineup greatly increased the Warriors' packing and defensive speed.

Holiday made a final three-point shot that was interfered with by Curry, and the ball bounced out of the frame.

Barnes grabbed a defensive rebound, and the Warriors played the fast break again.

This time, Curry was two meters away from the three-point line, and he made a direct stop.

It was an unreasonable but very Curry-esque shot.

"Huh!"

The three-pointer goes through the heart and into the net.

The Warriors' death five small forces were huge, and they beat the Pelicans 5-0 at the beginning of the second half!
