Chapter 271: The Water Cooler Administrator's Struggle
42:30。
Spurs have a 12-point lead for the time being.
The rhythm of the game was tightly held in the hands of Popovich's team.
On the one hand, he withstood the crazy counterattack of the thunder, and on the other hand, he stabilized his rhythm and did not waver.
Popovich's team showed a terrible consistency.
No matter how Durant leads the rhythm, the Spurs are always at their own pace.
Durant knows that the further back he drags, the worse it will be for his side.
In the previous games, the winners and losers were decided at the end of the game.
So he knew he needed to lead his team up front and build up the lead as much as possible.
Looking at the huge NBA, there are few teams that dare to grind with the Spurs.
He gritted his teeth and did everything he could to show what he should be like as a super scorer.
Facing a 12-point difference.
Durant receives the ball from Jeremy Lamb, leans over and accelerates the meteor and strides in!
Spurs maintain a steady defensive formation.
No one rashly gave up their defensive object to help the defense.
Popovich has explained in detail that now that the team has a double-digit lead, it only needs to defend Durant's two points and interfere with his long-range three-pointers as much as possible.
Just let him fight alone.
If you continue to play like this, no matter how terrible the offensive stability is, you will get tired.
It's not that everyone is Kobe.
Stay focused on both ends of the pitch and score the winning goal at the end of the game.
So being able to beat the Spurs to the ground by himself back then gave Popovich a headache.
And in Kobe's case, Popovich also found many ways to limit superstars through repeated failures and reflections.
After killing in, Durant stepped on the step point and rode a horse to shoot arrows!
The basketball rolls out a wonderful arc and goes into the net with precision.
The difference is back to 10 points.
42:32!
The main defense against Durant is Aaron Baines.
From beginning to end, Aaron Baines did not let his guard down, always keeping up with his footsteps, and his strong body gave Durant a strong confrontation.
I have to say that KD's core strength is indeed good, and his archery skills are indeed outstanding.
Under the ferocious defense of Baynes, who exchanged his life for his life, he could still find a rhythm and maintain his balance and shoot backwards to score.
Sitting on the sidelines, Deng Hongfei couldn't help but admire.
That's what top stars are capable of.
If it were him, he would definitely lose his balance under Baines' ferocious defense.
His core strength is certainly good, but it hasn't reached Durant's level.
The latter seems to be thin, but his actual confrontation ability is not bad, and he can dribble like a guard with a height of about 210.
You'd be hard-pressed to see Kobe Bryant's and Jordan's flying levers and dodges in him.
But it is still undeniable that Durant's core strength is also extremely strong.
His excellent core provides him with excellent body coordination and the ability to balance his shots in confrontation.
Defensively.
The French sports car dominates the ball.
Hands make corresponding tactical gestures.
Teammates elsewhere responded positively, interspersing runs back and forth.
Brooks saw this, as if everyone's running position was in his eyes.
He immediately felt a thrill in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Zipper tactics, it's zipper tactics!" ”
In a hurry, he didn't react to the number one zipper tactic.
Popovich's playbook contains a wide variety of tactics.
Danny Green, who was waiting in the bottom corner, received Parker's signal and cut back to the basket in time.
“Don Screens! Don Screens! "[Cover, cover!] 】
Lookers-on see most of the game.
Brooks saw it and pointed at Split and yelled.
Danny Green didn't have a chance to catch the ball, and sure enough, he quickly curled up to the top of the No. 5 cover.
In the process.
Parker has started and made a strong shot to the basket from a 30-degree angle on the left side.
At this moment.
He has three options.
1. Attack the basket yourself;
Second, pass the ball to the pitcher who curls and cuts to the high post, which is Danny Green.
3. Pass the ball to Split, who cuts inside after completing the next screen.
In a flash of light, Parker quickly made a choice based on the situation.
He hooked up the basketball and threw it out in a big loop of his arm.
The basketball was wrapped in greater power and rushed in the direction of Danny Green like a meteor.
Curl outcut after passing the cover.
He was at the three-point point at a 75-degree angle on the right, which was a not-so-positive arc top area.
Catch the ball steadily, pause the rhythm and raise your hand to throw!
Unfortunately, Tie Lin missed the shot.
He can often hit some key shots, and he can often put on a magical streak of hits.
However, the headache is that Tielin will always be inconsistent in some simple shots.
Under the basket.
Adams protected the rebound well and handed the ball to Reggie Jackson.
The latter took half court and went around in circles, using pick-and-rolls to bypass Tony Parker and dribble to the other side.
Nick Collison is desperately stuck in the low post.
It's just that he has never been able to gain the upper hand in the collision with Dior's power, and in desperation, he can only go up to Reggie Jackson to block and dismantle.
Seeing this, Reggie burst with the ball.
Tony Parker took a step back and turned back to block.
There were no good shots.
Resisting Parker with one side, his eyes searched around, and he saw Jeremy Lamb who took the initiative to pick him up.
Lamb is a sophomore show.
He averaged 8.5 points in 20 minutes per game in the regular season this season, shooting 43 percent overall and 36 percent from three-point range.
He has been doing well on the offensive end.
It's just that entering the playoffs, his performance is not very good.
So far.
The first three playoff games were all zeroed, the fourth game scored 8 points, and the fifth game continued to be zero.
Playing Spurs, only G2 scored 13 points.
It was also the personal highest of his playoff career.
So Brooks gradually stopped putting him on the court.
Lamb may be aware of this himself, so he finally managed to get playing time.
If you want to prove yourself, play a little longer.
In front of him was Danny Green.
Zhang Tielin's defensive ability is good.
Lamb shook several times before he could fool him.
At this time, Adams arrived at the designated point to cover.
Lamb finally waited for the opportunity, suddenly stopped and pulled back after a feint step, stepped on the three-point point and pulled the bow to shoot the moon!
With the grief-stricken struggle of a player who is about to fall into the water cooler.
The fiery red arc rushed headlong into the center of the basket with a ferocious momentum.
Three-point hit!
The score difference is back in the single digits.
42:35。
Lamb maintained the posture of Yang on his arm, puffing out his cheeks, and his eyebrows were fierce.
It seems that he has regained his self-confidence.
Brooks nodded slowly when he saw this.
He's a coach who doesn't have a lot of patience and if a player doesn't come on and gives him the performance he wants, he'll replace him immediately.
Lamb, on the other hand, can obviously continue to fight for a while.
At least give Westbrook a little more rest.
