Chapter 392: Clearing the clouds and seeing the blue sky
Popovich beckoned to Messina, who stood in front of everyone in his place.
The penetrating sharp gaze swept around the room, and suddenly touched his nose and sneered, "Looking at you like this, I really can't believe that it's 1 to 1 now, it's more like 0 to 3, and if you lose another game, you'll have to go home fishing." ”
"Who's going to tell me why it makes me feel the way I do?"
"Coach, we, we feel like Golden State's three-point shooting can't be limited, and the way they attack on the court makes us feel powerless."
"Why is it powerless?"
Popovich said: "It's just that both games are anxious, what's wrong with that? ”
"First, both of these games are away from home, and it's not easy to get a win away from home, and second, the opponent is the first in the regular season this year, and they have just played a strong season, is it difficult to understand that there is such a quality? Or have you never experienced such a close stalemate? ”
His tone was getting tougher and the players didn't speak.
It's not often that they see coaches exhibit this weird attitude of alternating hot and cold.
"Tim, you say, what are you worried about?"
Popovich directly called out Duncan.
As the heart of the team, his attitude is important.
Duncan was pretending to be a casual nail fixer, but when he heard the head coach call his name directly, he couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to look up and grin, "I don't have anything to worry about." ”
He really had nothing to worry about.
As the team's big brother, San Antonio is a true cornerstone.
He has seen all kinds of big storms and waves, and today's stalemate situation is really nothing to him.
It's just that at this point in time, it's really hard for him to express any opinions.
The atmosphere in the team is very sensitive, as long as you don't lack your heart, you can feel it.
Seeing this, Popovich nodded, "Okay, I actually know what you're worried about, you're worrying about the opponent's three-point shot, worrying about the opponent's aggressive movement and super ability to seize opportunities." ”
"The previous opponents, whether it is Miami or Ohirahoma, although they are also very strong, have traces on the offensive end, for example, Miami concentrates a lot of ball possession on the Big Three, and the technical characteristics of the Big Three are distinct, Dwayne is good at mid-range shooting between breakthrough and high-speed travel and back play in the low and medium post, LeBron is good at holding the ball and connecting the whole system, and Chris Bosh is good at catching the ball and jumpers in the middle and high positions."
"In Ohlahoma, Russell's shooting ability is average and he is a passionate attacker, while Durant, despite his great talent, is hard to beat with two fists and four hands, and the Thunder lack sufficient firepower."
"In addition to the superstar positioning of these two teams, they also have a clear positioning of their role players."
"This kind of clear positioning can give you a sense of direction, even when the situation is unfavorable, you will not feel lost."
"But the appearance of the Golden State Warriors has made you lose this sense of direction."
"Because of the way they attack like never before, because of their eclectic movement and non-mainstream options, you feel overwhelmed."
"I understand that because I feel the same way as you."
"But have you ever wondered why the Golden State Warriors didn't feel like that?"
"They played so well in the first two games, the three points were so accurate, but we still snatched a win from home."
"In their eyes, we are also an extremely difficult opponent to beat!"
Popovich's tepid tone and unwavering statements gradually caused the Spurs players to raise their heads and focus on him.
The expressions of the people present became very serious, and the light of listening shone in their eyes.
I hope to find the answer I want to hear in the words of the manager.
There is no doubt that Popovich's words have successfully pulled up the sluggish mood of the generals and raised them step by step......
"The opponent is really strong, and in G2 we beat us 21-0."
"But so what? The big score is still 1-1. ”
"No matter how difficult the process is, the data doesn't lie, we won the first victory in front of such a strong opponent, they are chasing us, not that we are in a headwind, in this case, you are here to disturb yourself and be arrogant, don't you mess up your own position, just let the opponent take advantage of it?"
"Okay, without further ado, let's ask Coach Messina to explain the next defensive deployment for the Warriors' offensive characteristics."
Popovich finished his sentence and sat straight back into the crowd.
Messina walked back to the screen, and this time, he could finally see the familiar look in the eyes of the players.
Apparently, Bobo's words worked.
While the iron is hot, Messina pressed the remote control, and a set of data analysis reports appeared on the screen.
"This is the first two games, the Golden State Warriors' shot point analysis."
"We can see that their 24-foot shots account for 31.3 percent of all shots, mid-to-high shots account for 28.1 percent, shots from close range 12.1 percent, and shots under the basket account for the remaining 28.5 percent, and it's true that a lot of their shots are from 24 feet away."
24 feet, which is referred to as the three-point line.
After a routine stat presentation, Messina gave a defensive set-up for the next game.
"Due to the attacking characteristics of Golden State, we decided to start Belinelli in the next game."
Messina points to the Italian sharpshooter on the edge of the crowd.
"Your task is very simple, be responsible for helping Deng or Kehuai to defend Curry before he makes a move, foul him as hard as possible on the premise of ensuring personal safety, don't worry about the number of fouls, in short, don't make him comfortable."
"Even if you have to put him on the three-point line, don't let him take it lightly."
"You know what?"
Belinelli quickly grasped the coaching staff's intentions and quickly relented.
As a coward, it can be said that the burden on his shoulders is not light at all.
"Stephen this point, Kehuai and Deng you take turns to play, give him pressure when the main defense, pay attention to the number of fouls, when one of you is troubled by fouls, the other pays attention to change the defense in time, in addition, Danny, when you are there, you also need to take on the task of Marco according to the actual situation."
With Messina's confession.
The fog that filled everyone's eyes was gradually lifted.
Suddenly, my heart suddenly brightened.
Simply summed up in seven words - wheels and slashes together!
Two punches are hard to beat four hands, and it is aimed at Stephen Curry, the only ball holding strength of the Warriors.
Although I don't know what the effect of this arrangement will be, at least it will show the way for the overwhelmed Spurs to stop them from feeling helpless.
