Chapter 528: The Most Troublesome

In the end, there was still no miracle, the Warriors did not soar out of the three points at the last moment, they gave people the feeling that they were just an ordinary strong team, not an alien team when Zhang Xiaotian was there.

Truth be told, they've been more consistent on the offensive end with Durant, but Curry and Klay Thompson have also had a lot fewer breakouts.

No way, the combination of All-Star level players, everyone has to make sacrifices.

At the critical moment, whether they are stronger or weakened, no one can say.

It's understandable because they're playing against a stronger Spurs.

The Spurs are doing too well in the offensive and defensive integration right now, and to some extent, this is also extreme.

At 1 minute and 24 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian played a 2+1 kill game, and the Spurs won the first game of the Western Finals.

At this time in the playoffs, it is normal to bet on who will win and who will lose the game, but watching the Spurs' game is a stable word, and Zhang Xiaotian, as the core of the team, has never disappointed the fans.

"They are respectable opponents, but we are more prepared."

'Every teammate is very reassuring and we can do it.'

Zhang Xiaotian calmly answered the reporter's question, compared to last season, they are indeed stronger.

After the game, the coaching staff summarized the game and compared the details.

What the players have to do is to keep their form.

The first two rounds were swept 4:0, and Zhang Xiaotian's physical condition was also very good.

Winning the first game of the Western Finals, the young players were a little excited, and Zhang Xiaotian reminded them in training that at this level of competition, a victory doesn't mean anything.

To create honor, we must do the most basic things well.

The old man also came over, but he won't come back to lead the team yet.

On days when there is no game between the home and away conversions, Zhang Xiaotian will also go to the next time.

While the topic of defending the title has been hotly debated online, the Spurs have not publicly discussed it internally.

It's not time yet, and the players are thinking about it.

If Zhang Xiaotian can lead the team to defend the title, his historical status will definitely rise, and reporters are also chasing him during this time, but he is not addicted to showing off.

In addition to training, he basically spends time with his family.

In the second game between the Celtics and the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers changed the starting lineup again, although many fans on the Internet ridiculed Lu's inaction, in fact, he still thought of a lot of ways, but he belongs to the type that relies more on star players.

The Cavaliers still played well in the first half and took the lead in a tight game.

But in the second half, they immediately collapsed.

The Celtics played like the Warriors in the third quarter, strong offense and defense, and suddenly regained the advantage.

The Celtics, who were also playing at home in the final quarter, played better, and the Cavaliers lost to the opponent with James scoring a big triple-double of 42+10+12, and the Celtics led 2:0.

The Cavaliers are still an outside shooter this time, and only Korver, who is back on the bench, can play okay.

James doesn't have the support of the outside shooter group, and even if he scores a lot of points, he will still have a tough time.

James was also a little embarrassed after the game, but he still looked calm in front of reporters, "I'm going to adjust again and think about how I can help this team continue to be successful, and what I need to do to help us become more well-rounded." ”

On May 16, the Spurs and Warriors started their second game on time.

The Warriors' adjustment ability is quite strong, and the last game did not win the game, and the beginning of this game became dominated by team basketball.

And there have been some changes in the distribution of the ball between Curry and Durant, they found that Durant is strong, but Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard are still a little reluctant to do it all over the court.

On the contrary, the Spurs' No. 1 position is not weak, but it is worth trying.

In other words, only when Curry is opened, can the Warriors meet God and kill God.

The Spurs did not deliberately fight with the opponent as a whole, the defensive end strengthened their attention, how to play on the offensive end or how to play, and the duel between strong teams minded being led to the rhythm the most.

This time, the Warriors took a slight advantage in the first quarter, and it was really difficult to defend the team if it played well, but this style of play was not stable, and in the end, it was up to the stars to decide the winner.

But during the rotation period, the Spurs found the score again, and the Warriors' bench was really not good.

Although they only need to add a few or two from the bench, for the Spurs, who have been preparing for a long time, they can catch their weaknesses most of the time.

In the final moments of the first half, Zhang Xiaotian caused a foul on the Warriors from outside the three-point line, and the Spurs went into halftime with the lead.

Zhang Xiaotian is not very professional in making fouls, and most of his free throws are made by rushing into the interior line.

But as he gets more accurate from the outside, sometimes it doesn't take much skill to get free throws.

Of course, he doesn't need any skills to do this, but compared to old fritters like Ginobili, he is also more experienced than many players.

"In the second half, the opponent will definitely adjust the style of play and pay special attention to their three scoring points."

In the dressing room, the acting coach analysed the situation in the first half.

The Warriors played as a team in the first two quarters, and the Spurs got less information, but although the Warriors played very teamly, their scoring was very concentrated and not as difficult to defend as the outside imagined.

Choking a few key points and staying focused can help defenders.

In fact, it is the most difficult to concentrate on the defense, the field is changing rapidly, the offensive players take the initiative, as long as the defensive tactics are deep into the bones of the team can do it.

Defense is more difficult to practice than offense, many teams don't have the patience to practice well, and business league players and coaches are not static, so only a few teams have practiced attitude.

There are fewer offensive and defensive players like the Spurs, so the sweat of the past must be turned into an advantage at this time.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Spurs' attitude was extremely correct.

They're still in a good rotation to keep the players fit and ready when they need it.

Klay Thompson and Durant are Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, and Danny Green replaces Curry.

It's one thing to rotate defensively while holding the ball, but a lot of the time it's off-ball defense, where the main defender doesn't just stop the opponent from scoring.

The core players took the lead, and the Spurs' defense tightened up in the third quarter and was definitely the top in the league.

But this time there was still a small problem, and that was the most difficult thing for the Warriors to prevent happened, Curry went berserk on the outside.

Players at this level are going crazy, it's really hard to prevent.

Durant was definitely more troublesome on the whole game, but at one point it was definitely Curry.

The Spurs are also not ambiguous, special treatment at special times, sacrificing a certain amount of offensive power, and getting on Murray, so that Curry has to face the league's top outside defense at any time.

Even if Curry can hit 100 percent, he needs to have a chance to shoot, and before that he has the ball in his hands. Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
