Chapter Ninety-Three: The Gap
In the face of the Heat's transition, teams with strong defense and strong integrity will generally choose to press the rhythm and drag them with positional offense. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
However, the Warriors are not good at slow-paced games, and their transitions are actually very strong. However, with Andrew Bogut and Richard Jefferson there, the Warriors can't pick up the pace. In fact, this is also a mistake of Matt Jackson.
This lineup looks fine, but it becomes apparent against the Heat's starting triumvirate.
They don't have enough speed to defend the inside, and Curry and Duan Tianqing on the outside are not tall enough. The lineup facing the Heat is not dominant. Although Duan Tianqing can cause a lot of trouble for Wade one-on-one, Duan Tianqing is not a god after all, he can prevent a Wade from scoring, but he can't prevent him from passing the ball to assist his teammates.
It's up to the integrity of the defense, but the Warriors' integrity isn't particularly good right now.
And in terms of position, although David Lee is also an All-Star level player, he has nothing to do with LeBron James. James' impact on the basket is still strong, and the ball will still be in the hands of the teammate who is best suited to shoot.
In the Warriors, Bogut and Duan Tianqing are strong defensive points. But the Heat seem to have consciously avoided the two of them. Bogut can't get out of the basket, so the Heat rarely hit the basket, and almost everyone, including their center Chris Bosh, has the ability to shoot anyway.
And since Duan Tianqing is staring at Wade to run, Wade seems to have become a sacrificed existence, holding the ball for a short time, but he has not attacked, creating opportunities for his teammates.
This is also the essence of a strong team, when one or two scorers are limited by the opponent, he can incarnate an excellent assist organizer, without being vindictive, not throwing indiscriminately, and choosing the most reasonable way to score. I have to say, Dwyane Wade is a great player.
Although he knew that Wade consciously reduced his shots and made wedding dresses for others, Duan Tianqing did not dare to give up his marking. After all, the name of the Flash is real, and as for the assists he sends, he can only hope that other teammates can make up for it in time, after all, Duan Tianqing can't defend one team by himself. Curry's defensive ability is not very good, but he is positive, so his defense is not very bad.
There is a saying on the pitch that is called being active in efficiency, positive in tactics, no matter what the situation is, the attitude cannot be bad. You have to be positive to have a chance, but the psychology of the players is also a wonderful thing. The whole game lasted 48 minutes, and it was difficult to guarantee that the mentality of the players would not change under any circumstances, and they would be able to maintain a positive attitude from the beginning.
So it takes a good leader to encourage the players and help them move forward.
Although the Warriors' defense is a little unstoppable, the efficiency of the offense is really okay. Duan Tianqing's playmaking work has taken the pressure off Curry and allowed him to put more effort into scoring, David Lee and Richard Jefferson are both projection interior players, and Bogut's interior finishing ability is also okay. Duan Tianqing's breakthrough ability also has a strong impact on the basket.
As soon as the lineup change came up, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade gave the Warriors a dismissal.
He dribbled into the half court and then passed the ball to Wade. Wade started to run from the half-court catch and rushed to the basket. While the Warriors players knew what they were going to do, they couldn't get their hands dirty. He could only stand up in advance and stop Wade's advance.
Wade ran to the three-point line and threw the ball over the basket. At this time, James came in from the outside, and Bogut, who was standing under the basket, received the ball and smashed it directly into the basket. An aerial relay connected by Jenway was completed in an instant. This move is also the Heat's signature stunt, which was completed by two superstars. Although everyone knows a lot about this trick, very few can resolve it.
The reason why the Heat's conversion is so strong that it is almost impossible to prevent it can be said that the Jenway connection can be said to be a miracle achievement.
"Cut, isn't it just an air relay, we won't give you another chance!" Duan Tianqing is still a boiled duck, and his mouth is hard to support.
James glanced at Duan Tianqing with the corners of his mouth, and retreated without saying a word. It seems to mean that you can't do it again.
Today, LeBron James's temper was picked up by Green, and his performance on the court was extremely serious and aggressive.
Both offense and defense have sold enough strength, with the intention of making this group of Golden State guys look good.
After James scored a dunk, the ball was handed to the referee. With this delay, another chance to break fast is gone. After all, a team like the Heat rarely has a slow retreat, and when Duan Tianqing wanted to play a long pass to the opponent with an unstable foothold, he found that the players of the Heat team had already fallen into a good position and were ready to fight.
"Duan, don't rush, play slowly, hit the success rate! Don't give them a chance to convert! Matt Jackson shouted from the sidelines. He wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with a hand towel, although he didn't play, but he was also under a lot of pressure, if he couldn't control the collapse during this period of time, then the whole game would be dangerous.
So he is now learning and selling, didn't the Heat use the success rate to drag the rhythm to keep the Warriors' speed and restrain the Warriors' style of play. In the same way, he can also use the same tactics to limit the Heat's offensive and defensive transitions.
And all this fell on Duan Tianqing and Curry, who controlled the rhythm on the court. But these two people belong to the kind of people who go crazy and don't care about anything. Curry likes to throw three-pointers when he has the slightest opportunity, and Duan Tianqing is also very unstable, who knows what kind of moth will come out, which Matt Jackson doesn't like. Can't control these two people on the field, who knows what they're going to do.
In fact, Duan Tianqing also understood what Matt Jackson meant. The idea of controlling the tempo is not wrong, but he forgot that the Heat's main lineup is not comparable to the Warriors' bench lineup.
If you want to attack the position, then good, we will accompany you to attack the position. LeBron James's ability to control the tempo on the court is at ease, and when he sees the Warriors drop the tempo, he immediately organizes a joint defense.
"It doesn't seem like it works like this!" The Warriors missed a shot, and the Heat seized the opportunity to play a counterattack. Duan Tianqing and Curry said as they dribbled forward in the backcourt.
At this time, the difference between the two teams was nine points, fifty-five to forty-six.
The halftime was about to end, and the Warriors only scored 46 points today.
"Think about how we won the previous games! It seems like we should play in the direction we won, not to limit the opponent and follow their rhythm! Curry took out the braces in his mouth and communicated with Duan Tianqing.
