“…… ! ”

On the king's bench, Gu Yu was still scolding, panting, and felt that the whole game was not going well today.

Indeed, Gu Yu's hand feeling was not very good today, except for scoring goals with skills, most of his singles goals were not scored. So far, he has only made 4 of 14 shots, and his score has just reached 10 points, and the shooting percentage can be said to be miserable.

Gu Yu is the only hope for the Kings to turn the tables, and with the current 20-point difference, it is really unrealistic for you to rely on Cousins to make a basket and chisel the ball, or rely on Evans to break through with the dynamite bag again and again.

Gu Yu didn't explode at this point, and the king's ball had basically been explained.

"Safrosa's defense was like that before, you're used to it!"

Marcus Thorton was very anxious, looked at Gu Yu and wondered, "Why does it feel like everything is wrong today??" ”

"I ...... I can't tell. ”

Gu Yu shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem to have changed, his defense is still that intensity, and I can run out of the space I have to find." But it's weird.,As long as you pass the ball to me.,He's like a plug-in.,One break and one accurate.,It's a fart?? ”

That's right, Gu Yu's poor hand in this game is inseparable from Safrosa's eye-catching performance on the defensive end. As a typical rhythmic scorer, Gu Yu relies on his rhythm on the court. The rhythm is right, even Kobe Bryant is coming to defend, and he is also confident of scoring. The rhythm is not right, even if it is a big vacancy, he may miss.

The rhythm of the scorer is basically fed. Teammates need to have strong support, so that the scorer is likely to break out.

OF COURSE, SOME TOP SCORERS, SUCH AS KOBE, LEBRON, MADDY, IVERSON, ETC., IF YOU GIVE THEM A BALL, NO MATTER HOW CHAOTIC THEIR RHYTHM IS, THEY CAN GRADUALLY REGAIN THEIR SENSE OF RHYTHM THROUGH THE ADJUSTMENT OF THE GAME AND FORCE THE GAME TO CARRY THE GAME. This sense of rhythm is the difference between an average scorer and an elite scorer.

Right now, Gu Yu has already touched the edge of this layer of window paper, and occasionally feels right, he can also forcibly create his own rhythm in the game. That's why he's been able to play so well in the explosive games he's been playing before.

However......

"A teammate's pass has to be in place!"

On the side of the media seat, Xiao Yu shook his head and sighed: "Whether it's Evans or Cousins, every time they send a pass to their cousin, they will be cut off." My cousin can't get the ball, how can I find my rhythm?? ”

"That's true."

The old reporter nodded, then shook his head and said, "But that's not the truth." ”

…… Well?

The old reporter's words caused many reporters in the vicinity to be stunned.

Is this the truth, but not this truth?

What does this mean by turning over and over??

"Hmm...... That is true. ”

Seeing that his peers were puzzled, the old reporter hesitated and said: "What Xiao Yu said earlier is right, if the hairstyle brother wants to break out, to find his own rhythm, he must have the ball in his hand, or at least when he runs out of the vacant position, the ball must keep up." But it's not all about your teammates when it comes to getting the ball in place. ”

"Do you remember Safrosa's defensive stance in the first few rounds?"

The old reporter asked, and the nearby reporters all frowned and recalled, and someone said: "Remember, there is no difference from before, bypass the cover, and do not change the guard." The danger zone is appropriately without the ball and clamped, and the weak side shrinks the basket to assist in defense when receiving the ball. This defensive tactic can be seen in most teams in the league, and in the face of top scorers, everyone is so defensive! ”

"Yes."

The old reporter nodded: "But what are you talking about is only the defensive strategy in the general direction, what about the small details?" Are you paying attention? ”

Small details ......?

It's all so detailed, what small details do you want??

To put it bluntly, the defense Gu Yu is facing now is the same as the defense that the old rascal encountered many years ago when he was at the peak of his personal scoring.

And the old hooligan also introduced illegal defense at that time, and he couldn't blatantly wrap up players without the ball, and the old hooligan would have more room to move when he was without the ball.

But at that time, the defensive body was strong, and all kinds of small actions were basically not blown, and even on the old rascal, if you just went up to hold and fall, it was an ordinary foul, and there was no such thing as a malicious foul. In addition, the gap between the level of the three-pointers at that time and the current one was too large, and the overall space of the court was smaller. Based on these points, the defensive pressure encountered by the old rascal is obviously far greater than Gu Yu's.

But Gu Yu is being regarded as an elite scorer by other teams, which is also an indisputable fact, he has to score, and the defensive pressure he faces has increased by I don't know how many levels compared to last season.

This kind of defensive strategy, armed to the teeth, itself requires the whole Thunder team to work together, work together, and communicate with each other constantly in order to be perfectly executed, which is already a fairly detailed plan in itself.

On top of that, are there any small details that need to be paid attention to?

"Have you considered the direction of the bypass......?"

The old reporter's eyes sank, and the light flickered.

"Bypassed...... Direction? ”

Xiao Yu thought for a moment, does this refer to the direction that Safrosa bypassed?

Gu Yu and Thompson's off-ball cover, Thompson is the wall, and the main purpose is to send Gu Yu to the vacant position.

But in some cases, if everything on Gu Yu's side attracts the opponent's double defensive bag, then Thompson will be empty, and after going down to the basket, he will have the opportunity to attack the empty basket.

Gu Yu's off-ball threat was too great, and it was impossible for the Thunder to shift the defensive focus to Thompson. Therefore, in the first two games, Thompson relied on this opportunity to brush up some points, which made the Thunder's defense very uncomfortable.

Especially in the second game, Gu Yu kept using his containment to give Thompson a chance, and it was impossible for a Perkins on the Thunder interior to prevent the impact of Thompson and Cousins at the same time, which caused Thompson to play the best game of the playoffs in his career.

After that, the Thunder sought change, and in the second half of the second game, Brooks had already agreed with Safrosa that as long as Gu Yu and Thompson switched positions without the ball cover, Safrosa had to remember to delay Thompson a little while chasing Gu Yu.

"The solution is very simple, while chasing the hairstyle, Safrosa has to go around the direction between Thompson and the basket."

…… Indeed it is!

The old reporter woke up the dreamer with his words, and all the reporters nodded in agreement.

In this way, Safrosa can not only catch up with Gu Yu, but also delay Thompson's internal cut to some extent, killing two birds with one stone, and the effect should be quite good.

"But Thunder still underestimated the ability of the hairstyle brother."

With this best of both worlds, Thunder thought they could sit back and relax. But who would have thought that Gu Yu would have a super explosion in the last game. Safrosa looped from behind Thompson, so let Thompson cover a little deeper, as close to the basket as possible. After Gu Yu cut out, Thompson piggybacked on Safrosa again, so that the latter could not rush to Gu Yu in the first place.

The accumulation of these little opportunities, coupled with Gu Yu's explosive touch and resoluteness in his shot, has long since made him perform fifty points in a single playoff game.

The Thunder's defensive change strategy failed.

"This strategy didn't work, so Brooks considered another strategy."

The old reporter continued: "Didn't your hairstyle brother break out when he had a chance, give a little sunshine and it will shine, and lay eggs if he gives a basket?" Okay, then I'll do my best! ”

The so-called absolute is a purpose:

"I won't let you catch the ball."

On the bench, Westphall looked at Gu Yu Zhengse and said: "When bypassing Thompson's cover, Safrosa took the direction of the line today, that is, he didn't care about Thompson's in-cut and ran directly around the front." At this time, whether it is Terrick or DeMarcus, the first reaction in your mind is to pass the ball to you, not Thompson, which is easy to judge. ”

"And Safrosa, who is walking towards the line, can see everything you see in its entirety, even what happens when you cut out and are blocked by Thompson. He can accurately determine the positional relationship between you and the basketball, and complete the aerial interception in advance, which is not a problem. ”

Such a small detail change actually brought so many variables to the game!

The Kings players really didn't expect that the seemingly randomly chosen defensive bypass direction could affect the whole game, and they all had an epiphany.

"I also realized it later, I should have seen it earlier, but it was my dereliction of duty that I found out completely in the first two rounds."

Westphaal gestured to his chest.

"So ......"

Cousins on the side blinked: "We should pass the ball to Thompson??" ”

"No, use your brain to think about it!"

Evans rolled his eyes: "Safrosa has gone around the front defense cousin, the cousin can't even receive the ball, and Ibaka doesn't have to help defend the bag in the first place!" He didn't cover his cousin, so he would naturally go to prevent Thompson from cutting inside, and it would be a mistake for us to pass it on. ”

"That'...... So what do you say? ”

Cousins was a little anxious, slapped his thigh and said, "You can't continue to pass the ball to your cousin, can you?!" If you know that there is a trap and step into it, that's stupid! When the problem is not solved, and the opponent is counterattacked, do you want to play the game? ? It must not be passed on to the ...... of the table."

"Keep it on me."

On the side, Gu Yu's eyes changed.

"It's really not good, let's block and dismantle on the strong side, although the attack power is not as good as my cousin, but I can get it...... Yes?? Cousin, what are you talking about?? ”

Cousins' eyes widened in surprise when he came back to his senses.

"I said, keep giving me the ball."

Gu Yu took a deep breath and looked sideways at the Thunder bench.

"But I need to switch positions with Tyreic, I go straight to the top of the arc to receive the ball, all the attacks, start from me, and the problem is solved."

…… Clever!

Westfal secretly admired in his heart, Gu Yu, he was really a natural master of tactical cracking!

"Tyrek, shoot those damn three-pointers when it's time to shoot, DeMarcus, pull out a little bit and be ready to shoot or turn around and cut."

"Beep beep!"

The referee's whistle sounded, Gu Yu, got up.

“IT’S-HIGH-NOON，TIME-TO-SMASH-THOSE-BITCHES……！”
