Chapter 472: Knight's Defensive Problem

Facing a group of reporters below, Zhang Xiaotian smiled calmly, "There are still four victories from the ultimate goal." ”

"The intensity of our defense was amazing, we got into the groove at the right time, I think we're going to be better, we're not at the ceiling yet," Ginobili said. ”

Durant didn't recover for a while after the game, and in the end he just said: "The Spurs deserve to win or lose like this, they're great." ”

The Spurs were previously the slowest teams to make the progress, and now they are the first to reach the Finals.

The next day, the Cavaliers also had a great deal to secure another spot in the Finals.

The Cavaliers gained a big advantage in the first half, and the battle was completely settled in the third quarter.

After the game, Celtics head coach Stevens was unusually excited in an interview, he said with tears in his eyes: "I am a little sad that I can't play better at my home stadium, there really is no home fan like the fans in the Garden Arena, the performance of the fans in the final moments of the game is incredible, I really hope the team can have a better performance." ”

'I think we played too casually, but at the beginning of the game the players worked hard. The lads work hard every day and that spirit will be passed on in the team. ”

'We've made progress, but it's not enough, and for Celtic, it's good enough that's all that matters.

Thomas Jr. said Stevens should be among the candidates for the best coach.

Cavaliers big man Love said in an interview: "We have to stay focused, Spurs are a very good and tough team, they have a lot of good players and they can make different starting lineups. We'll rest and relax tonight and get back into training on Saturday to get ready for the Grand Final. ”

In the finals, Zhang Xiaotian stood on this stage for the fifth time.

He's used to it, but he's still excited.

Both teams will have plenty of time to recuperate, and then there will be a showdown of strong players with no excuses.

The Spurs and Cavaliers both have the same record to enter the Finals, but judging from the performance of the regular season, the Cavaliers are afraid that the opponent is not so strong, at least the Spurs are 4:1 against the Warriors.

However, the Cavaliers did improve by getting Korver and Deron Williams late in the season to add depth to the bench.

The point is that the Cavaliers' role players rely too heavily on James' passing, and the weaknesses are relatively obvious.

And the Cavaliers' defense is really not as good as the Spurs.

If the interior defense is not good, it is the Cavaliers' sore feet, and it is James who has reached the finals level in single defense.

If Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard limit James like Durant restricts, will Irving have the confidence to do better than Curry?

Of course, James and Durant have different characteristics, and the Spurs' defensive strategy will also change.

As for the knights, how to restrict Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard is probably a headache.

No matter how much it was said before the game, it was false, and the time came to June, and the finals finally began.

Both sides started with two inside lines, and they must be cautious at the beginning.

However, the Cavaliers, who have studied the Spurs' playoff performance, don't plan to start slowly, and James will be able to play soon after the game starts.

Everyone is the same as defending James, putting a shot to defend the breakout, and coming in must be a pinch.

Consumption also has to be consumed, but not for Durant, James's physical strength is much better than Durant's.

James still felt good in the first quarter, and the Spurs could only try their best to limit it, and he couldn't explode points.

At this level, the offensive end must have the initiative, and it is impossible to lock up.

And then there's Irving, Mills can't stand it at all.

has the experience of defending Curry before, although the two are not the same type, the Spurs are not very panicked, and in the end, they must have Danny Green to change the defense.

Although the attack of both sides is already fierce, it is still in the tentative stage.

When it comes to halftime, according to the opponent's tactics and the state of the players, it can be really targeted.

Fortunately, the Cavaliers couldn't stop Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, but Aldridge was a little miserable, and Aldridge couldn't play a lot of tactics around him as a supporting role in the team now, so he was often very depressed.

However, the Spurs are also targeting Lefou, in terms of the score, everyone has not suffered, and they are all two strong points that play very happily.

As for the bench players, because Mills and Pau Gasol both started this game, the Spurs are just average.

However, Ginobili and Simmons are not bad, at least not worse than the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers, like the Warriors, look at some bench players, but they are actually not very reliable.

This is also a common problem of strong teams, spending too much money on All-Star level players, and the same is true for tactics, and role players can only be average.

The Cavaliers don't have a tactical system like the Spurs, and their bench players' biggest role is to hit three-pointers from James' balls, which is a bit exaggerated, but the benches for other styles of play don't have much opportunity to show at all.

So, by the second quarter, the Spurs had established a lead.

After the main team returned, the Cavaliers chased for a little more points, but it was the Spurs who took the lead at halftime.

At this time, the lead is nothing, and it is only a number, but the opponent's tactical choice and player state are clear.

There's nothing to say, limit James well and rotate a little faster defensively.

As for Irving, he is actually better defensive than Curry, and his shooting is not so exaggerated.

As for the breakthrough ability, the Spurs have the ability to assist in defense on every inside, although it is not strong enough, but with the help of Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, the role that can be played on the defensive end is definitely not small.

The knights can't envy this at all, and they really can't help defense.

The Spurs started the second half with all the firepower, and the defense was also full of intensity.

The knight also intends to do the same, everyone knows it well, and no one is a fool.

It's just that at this time, the knights' own offense went wrong.

Unlike the Spurs, who went through the baptism of the Warriors, the Cavaliers have not encountered this level of defense in the playoffs.

The third quarter didn't last long before they had a problem of their own.

It's not a big problem, it's the continuous iron on the offensive end.

It's nothing to meet an average team, at most it's to strengthen the defense and wait for the feeling to recover.

But they faced the Spurs, and Zhang Xiaotian seized the opportunity to hit two consecutive three-pointers.

The Cavaliers hurriedly changed to one big and four small, not only to enhance the offense, but also to add one more forward player, so as to limit Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard with James.

It's just that no one is suitable at all.

Richard Jefferson or Derrick Williams, it would be better to add a three-pointer to Korver.

The Cavaliers aren't too bad defensively, but they're at the bottom of the pack team.

With problems on the offensive end, there was no way to limit Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, and the Spurs quickly took a double-digit lead. Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself?
