Chapter 265: Chen Yu's Advantage
Chen Yu entered the inside line again, the Spurs were like a big enemy, and several people came up directly to wrap up, and Chen Yu's vision was almost completely blocked.
Luckily, he found Nash's direction in the gap, and after the basketball was passed, Nash hit the first three-pointer of the game.
Chen Yu scored an assist, and the score became 40-36!
Moreover, Nash's goal also attracted the attention of some Spurs.
Time was running out in the first half, and Chen Yu did not score in the next game, but he took on many tasks in the game as the team's pivot.
In the end, in the second quarter of the game, Chen Yu scored a total of 11 points and 2 assists, and 14 points and 5 assists in the first half.
Actually, it's still a good statistic, after all, it's just half a game.
However, it was not easy for Chen Yu to score every point, and he used a lot of strength every time he scored.
And in the first half of the game, the Lakers almost put in a lot of effort, and many players are now physically exerted, and they are a little apprehensive about the Spurs' flesh-and-blood defense.
The Spurs are still hoping to fight for a spot in the West, which is why this game is going to be played so hard, after all, it won't be that difficult to win against the Lakers, at least on the surface.
But what they didn't expect was that the Lakers would play so tough and play so anxious in the second half of the game.
At the end of the first half, the score was 43-39, with the Lakers trailing by four points.
The difference of 4 points is not too big, anyway, there is a play in the second half.
At this moment, there are also many people on the Internet who are discussing this game.
Most of them finally chose to help Chen Yu speak...... Of course, this is mainly because they watched the game and felt that Chen Yu really did what he could do.
"If it weren't for Chen Yu's performance in the final stage of the second quarter, the Lakers' halftime difference would have been estimated to be 15 points today!"
"That's true, in fact, playing against a team like the Spurs, you just can't be cowardly, once you are impetuously defended by them, it is difficult to score on this side, but when they keep scoring goals, it is the beginning of losing!"
"That's the reason, so at the most critical moment, you need someone to be able to shoot the basketball into the basket! On the Lakers' side, such a person is Chen Yu! ”
"Yes, at the most critical moment, Nash is injured, and he is old, Howard is also injured, Artest is really difficult to play now, although he can attack independently, but he is slumping a lot now...... So the Lakers really only have Chen Yu who can create opportunities in the iron bucket formation...... He can play without the ball, and he can play offense with the ball, and the Lakers really have to count on him now. ”
…… Everyone's discussion was in full swing, Chen Yu was quite tired on their side, and almost no one spoke in the locker room at halftime, all of them were resting and recovering their strength in their own ways.
At this time, Chen Yu was thinking:
He always felt that something was wrong with his attack.
It's not that he's inefficient or anything, but he always feels like there's some holes in his offense.
Such a loophole is actually not a big problem when playing most teams in the league, and it can be solved through Chen Yu's three-point shot and his breakthrough, but when he faces the Spurs, this problem seems to be exposed.
Chen Yu pondered that he would use the third quarter to verify it......
The third quarter of the game has begun!
In this section of the game, the tactical superiority of the two sides can actually be seen.
The Spurs quickly adopted a strategy for Chen Yu's destruction of their interior line, anyway, outside the three-point line, it is to defend directly closely, if Chen Yu blocks and dismantles, try to keep up, and quickly change the defense if he can't keep up.
As soon as Chen Yu entered the inner line, he immediately began to wrap up, and it was the kind that closed the field of vision, and the inner line almost shrank, compressing Chen Yu's breakthrough space to the minimum.
In the third quarter of the game, he made 1 of 3 three-point shots, and a two-point shot caused a foul, scoring 5 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, and the data of the whole game increased to 19 points and 7 assists.
In fact, even if this kind of data is placed in the whole audience, it is not bad, but for Chen Yu, the efficiency is really a bit low.
The Spurs' defensive strategy like this is really too much for themselves.
Compared to the Spurs' offensive and defensive strategy adjustments, the Lakers' tactics on the side seem a little lackluster, and D'Antoni mainly asks the main players to play more......
Anyway, D'Antoni is also a representative of the main force of the dead grass, and it is difficult for him to come up with more ways in this situation, so he can only hope for the main players.
However, although Chen Yu struggled a little here and struggled in the Spurs' defense, the offensive pressure of the rest of the Lakers was much easier, and the shooting percentage also improved.
At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two sides was 58-52, and although the Lakers trailed by 6 points, the overall situation was okay.
After the end of this quarter, Chen Yu had a feeling of panting like a cow, and the physical exertion was really fast, and Chen Yu felt that it was really too difficult to play, and almost every ball had to use strength close to feeding.
In this fourth quarter, he doesn't have much physical strength, and when the time comes, mistakes and the like may follow, and the shooting percentage will also drop......
In this game, it is really possible to explain it like this......
It's just that after this quarter of the game, Chen Yu has verified the problem he was worried about before and proved the existence of that problem.
This is Chen Yu's Zhongtou problem!
So far, Chen Yu's mid-pitch rating is 67 points, which is actually not much in his current projects, or even relatively few.
Because it's not even 70 points!
Chen Yu didn't pay much attention to the mid-range shot before, because he was also a little caught in the magic ball thinking: either shoot three points directly, or impact the basket, these can score very efficiently, and the mid-range shot is not very useful.
After all, a long-term shot is also two points, and it will not give you 0.5 more because the distance is longer, in fact, there is a reason for thinking so, but the problem is that when encountering a team like Spurs, the impact of no mid-range shot on a player is too great!
Because, if you don't have a mid-range shot, the opponent's defensive strategy against you is that as long as the outside line is close to the defense, the inside shrinkage can make it difficult for you to play.
After Chen Yu figured this out and verified it, he already had a new plan in his heart.
Many other players can't do anything even if they know where their problems are, at least for the time being, but Chen Yu is different......
