Chapter 320: Fierce Battle on Tianwang Mountain
Now, in the face of Chen Yu, the Nuggets don't have many methods, and in summary, it is nothing more than to increase the defensive intensity, from outside the three-point line to the negative angle under the basket.
Because Chen Yu has a huge threat and destructive power from shooting to passing to breaking.
When a player can pass, he can break through, he can shoot, it's hard to defend because he has so many arsenals.
Therefore, all the Nuggets can use is physical confrontation, anyway, today is the home court of the Nuggets, plus some well-known reasons for Chen Yu, so when defending Chen Yu, the action will be greater.
For a long time, Chen Yu has always faced some similar fierce defenses, but he has also survived a little bit, so he is now more able to adapt to such confrontations.
It's just that their defense of Chen Yu is too dead, Chen Yu also dropped a little after shooting two balls, and then missed two shots, so Chen Yu tried his best to change to an offensive method based on breaking through the ball and passing.
Seven minutes into the first quarter, after Chen met the frontcourt, the ball went directly to the bottom right corner of the three-point line, and even when he got to this place, the Nuggets players were still defending Chen Yu to the death.
Chen Yu pretended to break through, then stepped back and withdrew, and after deceiving the Nuggets, he suddenly came with a wide range of transfer balls, directly across the court, and passed the basketball to Meeks outside the left three-point line!
The passing in the two corners was a sight to behold, and Meeks' three-pointer hit one of the classic shots of today's game.
In the playoffs, because of the opponent's strict defense, there is no such thing as a simple offense and goal, so Chen Yu's scoring and assists are also a bit of a burst, and he may score a few points in a certain period, but then he misses the situation.
After the entire first quarter of the game, Chen Yu scored 6 points and 3 assists (two free throws and one hit at a time), but he was already a little tired when he got off the court.
Although his physical strength has now reached 85 points, the consumption of this game is really too large, if his physical strength does not reach 80, it is estimated that he is already tired now, and it is not at the current level of being a little tired.
However, the game has just begun!
Now the score of the two sides is 19-16, and from the score, you can feel that this is a meat grinder-like game, and the players on both sides have done their best to launch a suffocating attack and defense.
Chen Yu's defense is not added to the point, that is, the general level of point guards in the league is a little lower, but in fact, the importance of the point guard's defensive ability cannot be compared with the inside, and Chen Yu's defense is not too lagging behind. The Lakers played more tenaciously on the inside today, and although Howard only scored 2 points in the first quarter with Chen Yu's assist, he had already contributed 2 blocks.
Chen Yu must not have been able to play at the beginning of the second quarter, Blake was on, the Lakers played poorly in this quarter, even if Chen Yu sent two assists in the second half of the game, he was not saved.
After halftime, the score of the two sides has reached 45-36, and the Lakers are as many as 9 points behind, and a little further on, it will be directly up to 10 points!
In the third quarter of the game, Chen Yu knew that he had to do his best, so although he hadn't added points yet, he had done his best both offensively and defensively.
He shot inside and outside in this quarter, scored 8 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, and the data for the whole game reached 16 points and 8 assists.
No one can find fault with such data, after all, being able to score 16 points and 8 assists in a game in the playoffs is quite a good player, so it goes without saying that Chen Yu got such data in three quarters.
But at the end of the third quarter, Chen Yu was also very tired, and the score was 62-59 after this quarter, and the Lakers only trailed by three points.
By the end of the third quarter of the game, when the fourth quarter of the game was about to begin, Chen Yu sat on the bench and gasped for breath.
Chen Yu is not so tired that he can't play anymore, and now although he is very tired, he can still recover after a good rest.
"Chen, how do you feel?" Although D'Antoni has some dry goods, he always gives players a lot of freedom and is also very good at training stars.
However, from another point of view, this is also one of his characteristics: the main force of dead grass!
It is estimated that he sometimes wants to rotate five people directly......
Of course, the playoffs are like that, and most teams are just eight or nine people in the rotation, because on the playoff court, almost every minute is bayonet, and there is not much time for some fringe players to play.
Now D'Antoni really hopes that Chen Yu can play the entire fourth quarter, but he also knows that it is impossible, so he directly said this to Chen Yu.
"Coach, I need a little rest." Chen Yu and D'Antoni know each other very well now, and some words are also blunt: "It takes about 4-7 minutes!" ”
D'Antoni waved his hand: "That's 4 minutes!" ”
Chen Yu rolled his eyes.
But it's true that it's not that he can be so scared, but without Chen Yu's organization, the Lakers' offense will really drop a lot, and then before Chen Yu's ball-holding offense, the Lakers' offense will drop a notch...... But the opponent is the third in the West, the wolf-like Nuggets, and they can't drop any grade at all.
Therefore, Chen Yu still has to bear his own responsibilities.
As a result, the Lakers played very average in the first four minutes of the fourth quarter, and Gasol almost used it as a point guard at the top of the arc, and if it weren't for Howard's rebounding, the Lakers would probably have been beaten up with an attack wave of more than 10 points...... But even so, with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score was 70-62, and the Lakers trailed by eight points.
Chen Yu is actually not completely rested now, but this is the case, the situation is like this, he has to go if he doesn't go up!
Chen Yu added 10 points to his organization, but because his organizational ability is now capped at this stage, although he spent 1 free attribute point, in the end his organizational ability could only increase from 80 to 88. Chen Yu is not particularly physically strong now, and he also needs his teammates.
In addition, Chen Yu added 10 points to the mid-pitch, to 85, and the mid-pitch thing was really useful in the late game.
In the layup, Chen Yu also increased to 85.
4 points are spent, Chen Yu must stand up and stand up in the best state......
