Chapter 391: Exhaustion
No one knows what happened in the Warriors' locker room after the game.
But Draymond Green's tweet was somewhat meaningful.
The content is very short, only one sentence - I don't know whether to laugh or cry, look to the future and continue to work hard.
I don't see how things worked out.
However, Cole gave some answers in the face of inquiries from media reporters at the press conference.
"We have full respect for Stephen's behaviour and his behaviour is a commendable act of respect for competitive sportsmanship," he said. ”
For a while, Curry admitted the fact of fouling and voluntarily gave up the hope of victory on a hot topic on major media platforms.
Training halls.
Deng Hongfei ran around the stadium expressionlessly, looking straight ahead, looking a little sluggish.
Ginobili trotted to catch up with him, staring at Deng Hongfei for a long time, but the latter did not respond.
"Deng, what are you thinking?"
Ginobili smiled, "Won G2, thinking about how to win G2?" ”
"Manu."
The voice came into his ears, and Deng Hongfei returned to reality, turned his head to stare at Ginobili's inquiring gaze and shrugged his shoulders, "I'm wondering, if I and Curry were replaced by the same position, would I be as honest as him." ”
"Haha."
Ginobili patted him on the shoulder, "You're thinking too much, you're not him, and he's not you, so this hypothetical doesn't exist." ”
"Manu, I think the next G2, we're going to have a hard time." Deng Hongfei said seriously.
Ginobili still disagreed, "Deng, even if Stephen doesn't be honest about this goal, our G2 will definitely be tough, Golden State is a very strong team, and we need to give 120% effort in every game against them." ”
"Manu, I think Stephen can stay calm in that environment, give up hope of victory, and stick to sportsmanship, just this kind of mental quality on the spot, it's terrible."
"Okay, you may have a point, but don't make a fuss, this is the NBA, there are no simple people who can gain a foothold in the NBA, just get used to it, cheer up boy, G2 is very serious."
……
G2 is really grim.
The situation of the whole game was almost exactly the same as Deng Hongfei's hunch.
As soon as they came up, the Golden State Warriors launched a crazy onslaught like a tide.
More fierce and accurate than the first one.
In the first quarter, the Spurs were beaten 38-23.
Stephen Curry doesn't look out of the ordinary, having learned from the G1 defeat and making some adjustments to his offensive strategy.
Even Draymond Green, who reacted a little subtly after the G1 game, didn't show any unusual emotions on the court.
The result is a full game down.
Stephen Curry shot 12-of-19 from the field, including 6-of-6 from three-point range, and scored 35 points, 10 assists, 6 rebounds and 4 steals to lead the Golden State Warriors to a 113-97 win at home.
In this game, Deng Hongfei's performance was still excellent, with 7 of 14 in the game, 20 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal.
Duncan had 21 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks.
However, he couldn't stand the indiscriminate bombardment outside the Warriors' three-point line, and he had no choice but to lose.
Back to San Antonio.
The players spontaneously started a discussion.
In fact, the defeat of G2 made the atmosphere in the team a little gloomy for a while.
It's not terrible to lose, it's the feeling of suffocating to lose.
The Warriors' three-point shooting ability really gives people a sense of exhaustion that they can't catch up.
Your side finally scored two points in the positional battle, or scored three points backwards, and a few understatements on his side were directly erased by a three-point ......
If last year, the Spurs relied on impeccable teamwork to win the title of the best team basketball in history.
So this year, the Warriors relied on a nuclear-weaponized three-point bombing to blow out the gap in this invulnerable team machine.
"Curry has to limit this point, and I don't believe he can have such a good touch every game."
'I think on the pitch we need to strengthen the bond.
"Our advantage is to have Thiem as a strong inside point of possession."
"It's useless, it's useless, Thiem is really strong with the ball inside, but the three-point shooting percentage of those crazy people is not much lower than your two points, and we played very well in G2, leading by 13 points at one point, but what's the use? In the third quarter, it was directly beaten to a wave of 21-0. ”
"I can't defend at all, just a few offensive rounds to erase the lead that I've worked so hard to build."
"I've been playing in so many years and I've never seen a team with this style."
"You talk about a strong interior line, and we can also limit it by shrinking the defense."
"How do you defend against it outside? They block and run, and their range of movement is so large, how can they be completely stuck, but if they have the slightest chance, they will be over, and they can only pray that they can't throw it themselves. ”
After discussing the past, the attitude of the entire Spurs team was quite negative.
In essence, it is not that I have not lost such a ball before, nor has I not been beaten by my opponent.
But the process of G1 and G2 is really tiring.
Kawai is already the league's top forward defender, and even he can't snuff out Curry, so there won't be a better candidate for the whole team.
Instead, Popovich and the entire coaching staff discussed a set of ways to deal with Curry in the office......
G3 pre-game.
Routine tactical set-up meetings.
All the players were there, Popovich and everyone on the coaching staff.
Messina, as the main speaker, stood in front of the screen, looked around, and suddenly laughed, "What's wrong?" One by one, so serious, the murderous aura inevitably came out too early, right? ”
No one answered.
looked at him expressionlessly, his expression was solemn, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Seeing this, Messina went straight to the point, "I'll talk about G3's defensive tactical deployment. ”
"The results in the first two games are in line with our goals, one win and one loss, which is very good."
"We don't have big problems on the offensive end, it's the defensive end that needs to be improved."
"Especially Curry."
"How to fix it?"
"I know you've discussed similar issues in private these days, does anyone tell us about the outcome of the discussion?"
When the question is released, the crowd will look at each other, and no one will answer.
From their expressions, four words can be read - helpless.
The reaction was expected by the coaching staff.
Messina smiled, "Well, it's really our coaching staff's job to figure it out. ”
"Wait."
Messina was about to explain his tactics when Popovich's voice suddenly sounded coldly from the corner.
I saw the old man with his hands on his chest, crossed Erlang's legs, and his voice was cold, "It seems that before talking about tactics, it is necessary to do psychological counseling first." ”
