A few rounds later, the Thunder called another timeout. ◢ with * dream ◢ small *.lā

At this point, Brooks felt deeply how tricky the Kings were.

I thought that after a season, with the growth of the young people of the Thunder team, the Thunder team would be able to compete with a team of the king's level, but I didn't expect that in the playoffs, these old guys of the Kings seem to be more difficult, and they do everything on the court, and they are much more adaptable and in much better condition than the young players of the Thunder team.

The Thunder didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Durant hit a three-pointer from the outside.

At this point, the half-quarter passed, and the Kings led the Thunder by 12 points 19-7.

The two sides have coincidentally rotated players, and the similarity is that both sides have replaced a shooting guard, Wang tomorrow replaced DeMar DeRozan, and Brooks replaced James Harden.

DeRozan and Harden both have a low sense of presence, and it should be Ron Artest to lead the second echelon.

But the Thunder's offensive focus is small forward Kevin Durant, Wang tomorrow deliberately arranged Artest to match, in the case of Artest was not troubled by fouls, Wang Tomorrow resolutely used Artest one-on-one, the defensive effect is wonderful, Durant is very uncomfortable.

The king will be replaced by Andrés Nocioni tomorrow.

In the consideration of Nocioni and Cosby, Wang decided to use Nocioni first tomorrow, Nocioni is 1 year old this year, more experience than Cosby, and he is a famous Argentine player, with open shoulders and dark elbows, small flying kicks, exhausting all hard conditions, unable to be competent for interior defense, but the outside defense is also above the NBA middle level.

After another two minutes, Wang replaced Tyson Chandler with an inside lineman, Mason Gortat.

In the second half of the game, Gortat gradually surpassed Jason Thompson and became the first man on the Kings' interior bench, his rim protection ability is better than that of the skinny Thompson, and he is also better in rebounding, and can complete high-quality covers, and he is also more fierce in appearance, which is not easy to mess with.

There is no record of a lot of data on the field, but as soon as Wang uses it tomorrow, he will know whether it will be smooth or not.

Gortat came on the court and put more pressure on the Thunder's interior line, and Brooks made a switch to replace Jeff Green and bring on Serge Ibaka.

Wang will deliberately find DeMar DeRozan, who is resting, tomorrow.

"Demar, in the last two minutes of this quarter, I'll replace you again." Wang Ming first gave DeRozan a preview to arouse DeRozan's fighting spirit, and then pulled DeRozan to analyze the situation on the court.

This is the "godfather's guidance on the field", in Wang Mingming's career, it happens from time to time, many players have said that after listening to Wang Mingming's explanations and tips, their reading ability on the court has reached a higher level.

DeRozan also knew that what Wang Tomorrow said must be very important, and pricked up his ears.

"In this game, we took the lead for the time being, and in my opinion, if the Thunder want to bounce back, there is only one way to go, and that is to come off the bench."

"This time I will replace you in the substitute lineup, but after you come on the field, the task is different from before."

Wang Ming pointed to the court, and DeRozan followed his finger to the Thunder's bench.

"James Harden, this is your classmate, he's playing the sixth man role with the Thunder this season and he's doing really well."

"You know, if the Thunder comes off the bench, James Harden has to step up, and your task is to keep an eye on him for me, not to let him connect the team, not to let him score easily, in my opinion, James Harden's ability to sort out the team's offense is the best in the current Thunder team."

DeRozan was taken aback, he didn't expect James Harden to have such a high status in the coach's mind, you know, the current Thunder team has a top 10 point guard in assists!

Breaking points and organizing are two different things, and assisting and combing the offense are two different things.

DeRozan seems to understand whether he understands or not, but he knows that the coach's consciousness is to want him to defend James Harden, a young man with eyes like copper bells and looks like black charcoal.

"You have to pay attention to James Harden as a left-hander, try to let him break through on the right side when defending him."

"Uh-huh!"

DeRozan couldn't help but nod.

In the blink of an eye, with the last 2 minutes and 11 seconds left in the first quarter, dead ball time, Wang re-replaced DeRozan tomorrow, and at the same time replaced Cosby, Benno Udri and Jason Thompson, among others, replacing Artest, Kidd and Bosh.

Wang Mingming's boldness is also amazing, the second lineup is completely handed over to a first-year rookie.

Brooks still has Jeff Green and James Harden paired up.

"Toot ~"

As soon as the whistle blew, James Harden suddenly found that DeRozan was like a ghost, following him, and whether he received the ball or not, he posted it as soon as possible.

"So close?" Harden frowned and wanted the ball, but Jeff Green had already turned inside.

Green was on top of Cosby, a familiar feeling for him, and hit a long-arm pick-and-roll layup.

The king served, Yudri held the ball to face Meno, blocked and dismantled high, attacked to the right with the ball, pulled the ball horizontally, and saw DeRozan who cut in the air.

Harden was wrestling with DeRozan, and he didn't notice it, and DeRozan ran back to cut off the opportunity.

Yudri hit the ground and passed, DeRozan took the ball with both hands, did not dribble, and directly took three strong steps and jumped high.

Ibaka saw it clearly, and at the end of DeRozan's gliding, he jumped up like an ambushed beast, and came first, covering the sky with his big hands.

"Smack!"

Shengsheng blocked DeRozan's layup this time and covered the bottom line.

"Huh?" Michael Curry was taken aback, those who didn't really pay attention to the Thunder didn't expect that there was such a beast on their bench.

At this time, Ibaka has not suffered a major injury, and with an amazing sense of the court, he can always send a volleyball hat.

Wang Mingming's eyes flashed, and he used his brain to shout Tyson Chandler again.

"Tyson, are you ready to play early in the second quarter?" Wang tomorrow sees that Jason Thompson is weak on the court, and is ready to use the two-tower lineup of Gortat and Tyson Chandler to provide the best cover for the Kings' outside lineup.

Ibaka didn't have any mid-range shots at this time, except for the defensive end that could contribute big hats, the offensive end was limited to secondary offenses under the basket, and empty catches and dunks, which were not as good as Tyson and Gortat's small hooks.

"The iron defense on the outside, the twin towers on the inside are chiseled in."

The tactics that Wang Tomorrow thought out had a Memphis flavor, and this tactic was also the most sticky and stable tactic on the court today.
