Chapter 246: Abandon the car to protect the handsome
[Spurs 51:48 Thunder]
Duncan turned over and scored, stabilizing the morale of the army.
The Thunder were eager to get close to the score and continued to increase the pace of the offense.
Westbrook, as the engine of the whole team, took on the role of fueling the fire.
The ball was in his hands, and the overall speed was a little more flattened.
A few dashes to attract firepower and find empty seats.
Pull-up jumper.
Westbrook may not always be able to play every offense, but he can always make the Spurs' defense look like a big enemy because of his presence.
He is like a crazy spear, infinitely sharp, sharp and unstoppable.
When defending him, Deng Hongfei was completely oppressed by the fierce offensive and almost suffocated.
Durant, as the most important endpoint of the Thunder, is also inexplicable.
The Spurs' defense played little role for him.
Aaron Baines and Leonard alternated, with the former using a strong physique and a tough defensive style to exhaust the extreme.
The latter is barely blocked with top physical talent.
But there is still no way to suppress Durant's precision.
Tall, long-armed, a little backward, very fast, and impeccable on the dribble.
I can only pray that he can't shoot himself, and any defensive means can only be consumed, but not clamped.
A star of this level is too terrifying, and the power is comparable to that of a nuclear weapon.
Under his crazy scoring performance.
The situation on the field began to change.
55:56!
Durant caused another kill, rushed to the basket and hit a layup, leading the team to overtake the score.
Here, the Spurs' offense was once again stymied.
Wei Shao quickly held the ball and pushed it across the half court, and smashed it directly with a backhand to KD who followed up.
The latter strode into the paint area.
In the face of the Spurs players chasing after the defense, he directly ignored the take-off and dunked with his hands!
55:58!
……
Drip!
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Popovich immediately asked the referee to blow a halt to the game.
I'm afraid of such a situation.
A team like the Spurs is not afraid of stability and rhythm, but they are afraid of the explosion of a super scorer like Durant.
The extremely strong individual play is the fatal weakness of the Spurs.
Just like Kobe Bryant back then, all defensive strategies are useless, and the Spurs lose their armor by relying on individual play.
Popovich had to prevent this from happening.
Calling a timeout can interrupt Durant's hot hand to continue.
Second, some tactics can be arranged in a targeted manner.
"Durant came to feel, and what I'm going to say next, you have to remember, as soon as he gets the ball, he immediately wraps it up."
"Aaron, you stand in the fourth position and help Kehuai flank Durant."
"As long as KD gets inside, Tim, give up the defense and stop him from playing."
"It's okay for everyone else to score, the priority is to make him play uncomfortable and let his hands cool down as much as possible."
"Understood, Coach."
"You, Deng Hongfei, we adopt this targeted defensive strategy, in a short period of time, the defense line will be full of flaws, and the opponent's scoring will become simpler, so you have to carry the beam for me on the offensive end, Westbrook rushes inside, you also rush inside!"
"It's not easy for them either."
"We're going to play against them, use the offense to close the difference, wait until Durant's scoring form dissipates, and then go back to the previous defensive formation."
"Can it be done?"
Facing Popovich's serious gaze, Deng Hongfei nodded seriously.
This is clearly a trick similar to the arrangement of "abandoning the car to protect the handsome".
Focus on the key points and discard the less important things to achieve more important goals.
He's not scoring a lot so far.
Only 6 points were scored, although the performance of assists and rebounds was good, but compared to Westbrook and Durant, the edge was indeed a little bleak.
Fortunately, his efficiency is good, and his performance is relatively comprehensive.
So he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility until now.
In order to make Durant feel so uncomfortable, Popovich can be described as racking his brains.
Let the defensive giants on the two fronts pour out their nests.
Just to make it less easy for the opponent to score.
After returning to the court, Popovich's adjustments began to pay off.
Spurs are starting to drop more points.
Durant and Wei Shao were highly targeted on the front line.
Both men's individual shots quickly decreased.
However, they can still use their teammates who assist other open positions to open up the situation for the Thunder.
For these vacancies.
Spurs have adopted the principle of going far and encircling near.
The so-called long-range shots, extremely medium and long-range shots, can be symbolically defended, or simply give up and focus on protecting the rebound.
As long as the opponent passes the ball to the inside, all the nearest players immediately help to block it, so that it cannot be easily shot.
On the Thunder's side, Coach Brooks saw that the Spurs' porous defense was full of suspicions, and he didn't notice the problems faced by Durant and Westbrook for a while.
Spurs on the bench.
Udoka looked at the scoreboard at a loss, and muttered uneasily: "The opponent's offensive efficiency is too high, if we can't play the corresponding level on the offensive end to bite the rhythm, it is likely to collapse." ”
"Rest assured, there is no KD out of the Thunder, and there is no one who can be called a good pitcher."
"Whether it's Reggie Jackson or Westbrook, their outside shooting ability is inconsistent."
"At this point, Westbrook is heavily guarded by our guard line, and with the shooting ability of one Reggie Jackson, there is nothing to fear."
"In addition, the mid-to-long-range shooting ability of the two of them is also very weak, so that's why I dare to play this tactic."
"Of course, there is indeed some gambling in it, but basketball, the game is a gamble."
"Fight the opponent's weakness and bet on the enemy's luck."
Popovich stood up, his eyes wise, his scorching spirit locked on the court, and he had the wind of a general who stood still in the face of thousands of troops.
60:62……
60:64……
60:66……
63:66……
63:68……
63:70……
65:70……
The Thunder's offense was booming.
Almost they played 2-3 rounds before the Spurs were able to return for 1 round.
By hitting against the attack, it can be bitten.
Deng Hongfei, the core of the offense, took on the heavy responsibility and did his best to carry the banner of the Spurs' offense.
As long as the bite is within 10 points, even if it is within the range that Popovich can bear.
"When will the net be closed?"
The situation on the field is really worrying.
As long as one round can't stand it, something goes wrong.
The Thunder could extend their lead to 10 points at any time.
Fortunately, Durant and Westbrook were indeed restrained by targeted packing.
Barely shot a few times, and the efficiency was very low.
After Popovich heard Udoka's question, he slowly shook his head, "No hurry. ”
As he spoke, his eyes remained fixed on the faces of Durant and Westbrook.
Those eyes are like a camera that captures details.
The micro-expressions on the faces of these two people were fully visible to him.
'Call a timeout, we need to make some adjustments and stabilize the mentality of the players.
When he paid attention to Dewey's second youth, he did not ignore his teammates.
has been in a passive situation of being beaten, and it is inevitable that some people will have an anxious look on their faces.
This is what Popovich does not want to see.
