Chapter 315: Ghosts! (a)
Boom!
"It's wonderful, it's really exciting!!"
San Antonio, the bull-horse battle continues, but the game between the Thunder and the King is really twists and turns, and it is too exciting, so that the two commentators don't have the heart to explain the bull-horse battle at all, and they will deviate from time to time and start to introduce the game between the Thunder and the King.
"The Thunder team is on the floor, plus Ibaka and Perkins, the strongest offensive and defensive lineups are all there, there are no problems with offense and defense, this is a lineup that is enough to reach the finals!"
Albert said: "And the Kings are in deep danger right now, although they still have a nine-point advantage in hand, and there are just over two minutes left in the game. But Marcus Cousins, the pillar of the interior line, has completed his graduation and faces great difficulties on both ends of the floor! ”
In this case, most coaches will send interior players with decent defensive ability on the bench, so that the players can reduce the tempo and play success rate, and use the advantages at hand to grind with the Thunder team to the end to see who can survive to the end.
Westfaal, however, didn't want to do that.
"Westphale was a bold idea, and at a time like this, they fielded a big four squad that was quite tight on the overall defensive ability. Not to mention anything else, Kevin Durant's current height is almost taller than the king's center. How is it possible for this lineup to defend against the Thunder? What should I do if I push fast attack with three less? Reggie, what do you think? ”
"Understandable."
Reggie Miller analyzed: "If I were Westphal, I would have rotated like this. ”
"How?" Albert asked.
"It's very simple, even if you put a defender on the bench, like ...... Well, let's put Hayes on the pitch, for example! Do you think that little oil in Hayes's current tank can withstand the impact of the three less? ”
"This ......"
Albert was speechless.
"The impact of the Thunder Sanshao, not to mention the king, even if the Spurs are coming and Philadelphia is coming, it is still impossible to completely prevent it, it can only be targeted to carry out certain restrictions, and the restrictions may not be successful."
Reggie Miller said: "Instead of making this completely indefinite choice, it is better to let go of the defensive end and directly use the offensive bombardment to solve the problem!" Because the king's strength is originally offense, you use your own shortcomings to fight for the opponent's strengths, isn't this a hot brain and indiscriminate medical treatment? ”
Makes sense......!
The fans in front of the TV listened and nodded their heads.
Reggie Miller is right, the Thunder is not a team in the middle and lower reaches of the league, and the Kings can defend against players with relatively strong defensive ability.
Sanshao's ability is there, with the defense that is almost at the bottom of the league in the King's league, even Olajuwon can't defend it.
In that case, it's better to bomb!
"It's okay, it's okay, defend it!"
ON THE COURT, THE KINGS WENT BACK TO DEFENSE, AND THE LINEUP OF ONE BIG AND FOUR SMALL LOOKED SO SMALL AND POWERLESS IN FRONT OF THE THUNDER'S OBVIOUSLY OVERSIZED LINEUP.
"Bang, bang, bang"
The Thunder also took advantage of the King's substitution to make certain tactical arrangements. Brooks sensed that Harden's offensive desire was quite strong and he handled the ball more calmly, and loudly demanded that Westbrook give the ball to Harden.
“MOVE-MOVE!”
Harden controlled the ball and came to the front court steadily, although Gu Yu also went up to lead the defense, but it basically had no effect. Harden's strong body and good sense of the ball made him easy to pass the half, and a few simple changes in direction to protect the ball already made Gu Yu have no way to stop it.
In the frontcourt, Westbrook and Durant began to run, Wei Shao cut in the ribs, borrowed Ibaka's cover to go around to the top of the arc, and Harden's pass came in an instant.
"Pass it on!"
Starting with basketball, Wei Shao rarely played quite calmly, and he saw that Durant had cut over from the weak side, and the basketball was passed on as soon as he touched his hands.
"Bang bang!"
After receiving the ball, Durant cut into the middle, and Garcia did his best to follow, but after bypassing Perkins' cover, it was too late.
"Whew...... Swish! ”
“YEEEEEEES——!!!”
Hit from medium range!
"Durant, what a god!!"
Albert was wet by Durant's concise and explosive offense this time, and exclaimed: "Calm, cold, no waves in my heart, when I shoot the basketball, it's as simple and easy as drinking water!" Kevin Durant will definitely become the top scorer in league history in the future! ”
“…… Offensive! ”
With a seven-point gap, the Kings attacked, and Evans just glanced back at his teammates and made a tactical gesture when he controlled the ball past half court.
“…… Syllable! ”
The ball in your hand is directly broken!
"Kept up, ahhhh——!!h
Westbrook, Wind and Thunder Breakthrough!
"Bang bang!"
Rushing to the basket with a quick dribble, Wei Shao rode into the dust, and when he rushed to the basket, Thompson, who had not yet passed half the court, caught up and wanted to reach out to interfere at his side.
"Whoosh!"
Wei Shao once again made a wonderful choice, there was clearly an empty cut of Durant on the right side, but he did not give the ball directly, but turned around after jumping up and passed the ball to the outside in the air.
The man standing outside the three-point line is ......
Sergi Ibaka three-pointer...... Middle-of-the-middle!! 4 points difference!! ”
Thunder rises!
“NICE-PASS!!”
Although Durant didn't receive the ball, he still stepped forward and high-fived Wei Shao.
He knew very well that if Wei Shao passed the ball to him just now, he might be able to complete the shot, but ......
“…… Damn it! ”
During the defense, Durant glanced at the Kings basket.
"Damn, it's just a little bit ......!"
Gu Yu was losing his temper.
It's dangerous......!
Recalling the situation just now, Durant was shocked.
It's clear that it's a fast attack on his side, and it's clear that the hairstyle brother has already passed half the court.
But when Wei Shao sprinted, except for Thompson, who didn't go past half court, the only one who returned to the half-court basket to defend was actually the hairstyle brother!
How did you get here??
“LET’S-GO-THUNDERS——!!”
Inside and outside the stadium, the cheers of the fans were still ringing, and no one seemed to notice this detail.
But Durant, who is as careful as a needle, only feels a chill down his spine.
Hairstyle Brother ...... Isn't it impossible to defend?
Isn't his defense almost like a papier-mâché, which can be broken with a single stab?
But just now he ......
"Why can you judge my offensive running route so accurately, and then catch up with it as soon as possible......?"
This question, after another round, was answered.
"Huh!"
On the offensive end, Evans became more careful with the ball, and after half time, he made the ball for Gu Yu, who was crazy about running, and after receiving the ball, he scored two points with a difficult step-back jumper, stretching the difference to 6 points again.
The Thunder offense also made a very concise coordination.
"Whoosh!"
Harden was at the helm of the pass again, and after Willis got the ball, he just stood at the free throw line, faced Evans' defense, and pulled up to shoot.
"Come back......!"
Beside him, Harden's shouts rang out.
“…… Sou! ”
Wei Shao's physical fitness can be called a B state, and he actually forcibly twisted in mid-air and passed the ball to the wing.
At the same time that Harden got the ball, Ibaka took the inside defense with an outside cut, and the beard directly received the ball and was about to go to the basket three steps slowly.
The moment the shot was made
"a chicken!"
In front of me, a big back appeared.
…… What the?!!
"Smack", "Beep beep beep!! Kings No. 22, defensive foul! ”
“…… YEEEEES!! ”
Creating a foul, Gu Yu's defense was finally a step slower and failed to destroy the ball. Harden changed his hand in the final minute and made a successful foul.
"Thunder, two free throws!"
Players from both sides took their positions on the court, and outside the three-second zone near the free throw line, everyone was stuck in their positions, waiting for the Thunder's free throws.
"Whew......!"
James Harden stepped to the free throw line, took a deep breath, and threw the first shot with his hands open.
"Huh!"
“YEAAAAAAAH——!!!”
The Thunder fans at the scene were already crazy, cheering endlessly, Harden turned around and high-fived his teammates one by one, but his eyes finally fell on Gu Yu.
Why......?
"Second free throw preparation!"
Why would he know I was going to run like this?
Basketball starts, and Harden prepares for free throws.
In my mind, an extremely strange question lingered.
"Whew......!"
I was clearly three steps slower to the rhythm, and there was a small European step change of direction, and most people had been shaken to the edge of the sky by me a long time ago.
Can hairstyle gotha ......
"Huh!"
Why do you know what I'm going to do?
"Assi, my defense is really ......!"
In Sanshao's heart, the seeds of uneasiness began to sprout.
Gu Yu was still annoyed, feeling that his defense was not in place.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's ...... to get it back on the offensive end!"
Evans stepped forward to give a reassuring sigh and began to push the ball forward.
“…… Good! Kill him without leaving a piece of armor! ”
Gu Yu also settled down, didn't think about it anymore, and started to run.
Before his eyes, a very wonderful sight appeared.
"Didi ——!"
Within the space of the Thunder half, from offense to defense, a virtual line appeared in front of the nine players on both sides, except for Gu Yu, and only Gu Yu could see it.
At first glance, these lines are a bit complicated, with solid lines and dotted lines, and many people have more than one line.
But fans who are familiar with basketball tactics can see at a glance that this is a schematic diagram of basketball tactics running, passing, and covering.
"Chasing down the incision"
Above the players' heads, there was a very simple line written on the inside of Evans, and the text above Westbrook's head indicated what he was going to do.
And with the change of the king's running position, the lines in front of each player and the text above their heads are also constantly changing.
Meanwhile......
“SCREEN……!”
His eyes fell on one point on the court, Gu Yu let out a low snort, and Thompson, who was beside him, immediately stepped forward to cover.
"Bang......!"
Borrowing the cover to sprint forward, Gu Yu ran out of a rather sharp curve, just passing between Ibaka, who was about to step forward to help defend, and Harden, who was chasing the defense, and the timing was calculated just right.
“…… Sou! ”
In the bottom corner, Garcia noticed Gu Yu's running position and passed the ball to ......!
