Chapter 628: The finals are running and booming

The Knicks served quickly from the baseline and attacked the Spurs again, which was indeed a lot rough compared to the Spurs' patience and rigor.

The Knicks almost ran over, and after a cover, Li Feng shot a three-point shot directly on the three-point line.

But it's a pity that Li Feng's shot didn't hit, and the Knicks' luck was average at the beginning of the game.

The Knicks missed the ball, and Split firmly protected the rebound in the backcourt under the basket.

Then immediately passed the ball to Tony Parker's hands, Parker controlled the ball and did not greed for the ball, and controlled it for a long time. Instead, he immediately passed the ball to Leonard's hands at a 45-degree corner, and the first moment Leonard got the basket, he glanced over the basket.

This glance was a feint, and Li Feng, who was defending him, followed his rhythm. Leonard rushed towards the Knicks' basket with a breakthrough, Leonard's hands and feet are very long, and the speed is also good, so this time he immediately shook off Li Feng and stabbed directly into the Knicks' interior line.

And this guy is not afraid of the Knicks' defensive power on the inside, and he forces a layup when he gets up.

Leonard despised the opponent's defense so much, and the Knicks' two interior lines naturally fought back, and Leonard's forced layup was pushed too high at once and smashed into the Knicks' hoop.

Leonard failed to make a layup, but Split took advantage of this gap to get up behind Cousins, and it was a dunk that added the basketball to the Knicks' basket.

The Spurs scored four points in a row, and it was easy to see from watching the game.

The Knicks' offense definitely relies on long-range shooting, while the Spurs' offense comes more from the basket.

The Spurs scored, and then the Knicks moved into the offensive position, and this time the Knicks still ran a smooth offense.

Cousins responded with a high position, and after passing the ball to J.R. Smith, he suddenly cut from a 45-degree air, and J.R. Smith, who got the basketball, understood that a ground-hitting pass quickly loosened into Cousins' hands.

Cousins caught the ball and wanted to dribble and make a layup. But he overestimated his own defense and underestimated Split's determination to defend.

Almost as soon as he dribbled the ball, Split rushed up and squeezed Cousins, and Split pounced and rushed, and Cousins lost his balance.

The body is the most deceiving thing, no matter if your heart is higher than the sky, your arms and legs can't keep up with your head, he won't give you a long face, you can't do anything.

Cousins is now squeezed by Split and his movements are out of balance. Mistakes on boarding,. The basketball fell to the ground and rolled out of the baseline.

The Spurs rushed back with the ball, and at this time the Spurs finally showed their youthful foundation.

When the ball was transferred to Leonard, his chances were not good, but the guy still forced himself up and shot a three-pointer.

The basketball smashed into the Knicks' hoop at once, and at this time, seeing that Monroe was stuck in a good position under the basket, he was pushed away by Duncan behind him by half a step.

How much space is a half-step under the basket? Half a step is enough for a person to stand, and this person stretches out his arms to occupy the space above, and this is a piece of heaven.

Drop half a step under the basket and you're gone. So this rebound, which originally belonged to the Knickska, was taken by Duncan under the basket for no reason. After getting the rebound, Duncan saw a group of Knicks pounce on him, and he immediately passed the ball to Split, a little outside. Split quickly moved to the three-point line, and Ginobili shot a three-pointer without hesitation.

Spurs get another three points! The ball was finally hit by Ginobili. But the reason for this is that the Knicks lost points because of the lack of strength on the inside.

The most crucial part of this ball is Monroe's loss of position under the basket. That's why the score was so unjustly lost.

In front of the Spurs' powerful interior line, the Knicks are overwhelmed and precarious. In terms of score, the two teams have played 9-2, and Tyberdu is also starting to get agitated on the sidelines.

But at this time, it is useless for Tyberdu to be anxious, he has no cards in his hand, and he is currently the strongest lineup of the Knicks, no matter how he adjusts, he can't reverse the situation in front of him.

When Tyberdu was worried here, the Knicks made another basket on offense, and the Knicks played a tactic for J.R. Smith when he didn't score in several rounds, and J.R. Smith did have a chance.

But when he broke through, he hesitated a little bit, and at the moment of shooting in the air, the angle was too awkward, and he didn't shoot a layup.

It didn't matter if J.R. Smith didn't shoot a layup, the Spurs immediately grabbed the rebound on the offensive end and launched a quick offense.

The Spurs are indeed sophisticated, but none of the teams refuse to launch a fast break when the opponent is not on a firm footing.

The Spurs rushed like crazy, Duncan ran in front of the center and ran to the Knicks' basket at once, and suddenly the Knicks' main force was concentrated on Duncan, and at this time, Tony Parker pulled up a three-pointer at half a step from the three-point line.

The three-point shot was hit, and the Spurs scored again, and now the score has become 12-2, such a big score gap.

The persecuted Tyberdu had to call a timeout, and at the same time had to make an important decision in his heart.

As soon as the Knicks' players ran back, although the game had just begun, their faces were a little unsightly, and their confidence was not so full.

In the game just now, the Spurs' advantage on the inside was too big, so big that the Knicks couldn't bear it.

This run back, the Knicks and the player Tyberdeau will definitely arrange to strengthen the intensity of the interior line.

But what no one expected was that Tyberdu directly pushed Li Feng to the power forward position, replaced Monroe, and went to Kirilenko.

tabodoo says:

"For a while, we're going to pick up the pace of the game, open up the space, and don't hesitate to shoot threes whenever we get the chance. Gotta pick up the tempo, be more aggressive defensively, you know what I mean? ”

If you hit me on the inside, I can't hold it, but if I hit you on the outside, you can't hold it either. Tyberdu actually used such a trick at the beginning of the game, which really surprised the Knicks' players. Tyberdu's step is big, his step is big, sometimes he can shake off his opponent, but sometimes he will pull the egg.

With this determination and this change, all of a sudden, the Knicks and his team looked at Tyberdeau differently, and their confidence in the team returned. A bold head coach brings the players who are also bold.

Tyberdu has the courage to fight with the Spurs and gamble, and the Knicks players have the courage to gamble with the other party.

The suspension ends. Jeff Van Gundy looked at it on the commentary bench that the Knicks didn't want a big forward anymore, and threw Li Feng out to make a pure small lineup.

Suddenly, Jeff Van Gundy also exclaimed:

"Ahh The Knicks replaced Monroe with Kirilenko, Li Feng played power forward again, and Tyberdu was very bold! It's offensive firepower against the Spurs, and it's interesting, it's really interesting. ”

Knicks sideline ball, this ball Cousins on the sideline as soon as it comes out.

The Knicks went straight into positional warfare. At this time, although the Knicks can't play the speed advantage of a small lineup, they still have a mismatch advantage.

Li Feng remembered Tabodeau's words, opened up the space and didn't go to the inside line at all, just standing outside the three-point line. As a result, Duncan is very awkward, and he needs to defend people from the three-point line inside.

Duncan felt awkward, and at the same time, the Spurs' interior space was also open. The feeling of standing two seven-foot-long people and a seven-foot-long person in such a big place on the inner line is completely different, so as soon as Li Feng appeared, Duncan was very unhappy. The space of the Knicks is also very open.

With such a large space, Li Feng was a little happy, and broke through directly to the basket.

But Leonard is not so easy to play, and directly blocked Li Feng to one side, at this time Li Feng had no choice but to pass the basketball out to Li Feng's hands.

As soon as Li Feng got the ball, Duncan immediately followed the defense.

Li Feng and Duncan faced each other for the first time.

The moment Li Feng got the ball, Tyberdu's heart was in his throat, and the most critical point for the success of his small tactics was Li Feng.

Li Feng also took a look at the big man in front of him when he took the ball, Li Feng has many advantages, but the maximum speed and rhythm, and what is needed to play these two points is space, so after taking the ball, Li Feng did not rush to break through directly, but dribbled backwards and pulled two steps back, and this time the space came out.

Duncan followed Li Feng and strode out, Li Feng was immediately happy, there was a play, and he immediately made two large changes of direction, and at the same time his body moved to both sides, Li Feng moved quickly, tearing back and forth, which suddenly made Duncan very unaccustomed to it, and there was some garlic under his feet.

In such an instant, Li Feng accelerated and rushed towards the basket, and Duncan was cleaned by Li Feng.

As soon as Split leaned over on the inside, Li Feng faked and shook the opponent slightly, and then made a layup.

With two points, the Knicks finally got the point after a long period of non-scoring.

Not to mention the defense, the change in the offensive end is effective, and the heart of Tyberdu is half relaxed.

Jeff Van Gundy also immediately said in the commentary seat:

"Li Feng is really good at attacking the basket, and the breakthrough rhythm just now is good. 、! ”

As soon as Jeff Van Gundy said this, Popovich chewed something out and immediately said to Duncan on the court:

"In the next round, let go of one step to defend Li Feng and let go of a distance!"

Duncan also nodded again and again, and the Spurs went to the offensive end, and naturally the first point was to find Duncan to beat Li Feng.

Just now Taibodu said that he should strengthen the aggressiveness of the defense, so as soon as he came over this time, Li Feng grabbed it very strongly.

Parker didn't have a good chance to pass the ball to Duncan, and Li Feng's strategy to defend Duncan was to half-circle the front defense, cutting off the pass route while sticking to Duncan's body.

So in the end, there was no way, Tony Parker could only pass the ball to Leonard and let him come alone, Leonard hit Li Feng, came over and took a decisive step to control the ball, and made a quick stop jump shot.

This jumper is really a bit of a star, the basketball went into the net, the Spurs also scored, and the difference between the two teams still did not widen.

But at the moment when Leonard scored, the Knicks immediately kicked off quickly on the bottom line, and the Knicks, a fast horse, rushed up all of a sudden.

Li Feng also ran wildly along the sideline towards the Spurs' half, and the Knicks suddenly pulled the rhythm so fast, the Spurs were naturally a little uncomfortable.

Duncan was even more uncomfortable, and chased after Li Feng, which made a seven-foot man very painful.

Li Feng saw that since the old Duncan was running so painfully. Then I don't mind making him miserable a little more.

So Li Feng's legs didn't stop, and after reaching the bottom corner of the spurs, he paused a little and made a feint to wait for somewhere.

Duncan finally saw Li Feng stop, and with a little gasp, Li Feng pushed Duncan hard and ran towards the basket along the bottom line.

This time, Duncan's feet couldn't keep up, so Li Feng approached the Spurs' basket without any defense.

J.R. Smith, who controlled the ball, saw where he would let go of this kind of opportunity, and directly made a straight stopper, Li Feng received the ball and made a layup, and easily scored two points.

The pause has just ended. Tyberdu has sacrificed a small lineup to now, the Knicks and Li Feng have scored continuously, and the power of misalignment is really huge.

This made Popovich frown, and although Popovich was anxious, he only stood up and did not interfere in the progress of the game.

The Spurs, on their side, were suddenly met with a combination punch from the Knicks, a small lineup, aggressive defense, and a quick run-and-gun.

Tony Parker is the heart of the team, and he's the leader. After seeing this scene. The first thing I did to get the basketball from the baseline was to suppress the rhythm and shout at my teammates.

"Don't panic, think about the route of the pass. Play at our pace, be sure to play at our pace. ”

Parker shouted as he suppressed the rhythm, causing Popovich to nod. After Parker yelled like that twice, he arrived at the Knicks' half court and began to choose his passing route carefully.

Duncanka took over Li Feng. Li Feng suddenly pushed forward the moment Duncan received the ball.

Duncan took the ball and thought that he finally had a chance to repair Li Feng, so Duncan didn't care, but as soon as he received the ball, Li Feng suddenly changed.

So immediately after, Duncan's movements were even more awkward, as soon as he rolled over and prepared for the jump shot. Li Feng took another step below, and two steps up, Duncan was unhappy, his shot was deformed, and the foundation below was unstable, so this shot was simply not shot, just rubbed the hoop.

Li Feng happened to be in this position, and when he turned around, he grabbed the rebound, and then he remembered Taberdu's teachings, and now he wants to play fast, so Li Feng immediately threw out the basketball and threw a long pass.

Directly past the Knicks half, J.R. Smith took the lead, catching the basketball diagonal and running wildly. When Ginobili struggled to catch up near the free throw line, J.R. Smith made a pull-up jumper.

This distance, this rhythm, J.R. Smith is all too familiar, and the Knicks score again.

This time I chased 6 points! Li Feng is two layups and one rebound, both of which are the key to the key.

Fans who came to the ATT arena to watch Li Feng play were happy, waving Li Feng's big head on the sidelines.

But Popovich's face darkened even more, he didn't like this situation. And he knows that things have changed now, and it's not something that can be changed by Tony Parker shouting a few words on the court.

It had to be called a timeout, and although Popovich was not good at being on the spot, it didn't mean that he couldn't be on the spot at all, and when it came time to do it, he was not relentless. So Popovich, with a gloomy face on the sidelines, immediately called this timeout.

As soon as the Spurs came back, Popovich said with a bad face:

"The Knicks use a small lineup, we have to pay attention to three points next, the first point is the speed of retreat, it must be fast, it must be targeted. The second point is the scramble for rebounds in the frontcourt, and the Knicks will reduce the chances of the fast break when they scramble for rebounds in the frontcourt. The third is the interference with the Knicks' first pass, and the speed of the Knicks' first pass must be delayed. The backcourt has to be defended, and as long as it takes a second or two of delay, the Knicks' fast break fails. ”

"But just do what Parker says, be careful with your passing, play our rhythm and remember it's our rhythm."

After saying that, Popovich made his players ready to play, and Popovich's rules are all a way to deal with the run-and-gun tactics.

In the past few years, when the running bomb was very popular, many teams played running and bombing, so there were many teams that correspondingly studied and cracked the running bomb, and Popovich put forward these three points, which were unanimously summarized by many teams and considered to be an effective response to running and bombing.

With these responses, the running bomb in the league is no longer so hot and effective, and now the Knicks are taking it out of the cold, and they are just catching the Spurs off guard.

Popovich made the arrangement, and Tyberdu also made the arrangement, and Tyberdu first said to his players:

"Next, the Spurs will definitely curb our speed, so we can't concentrate on possession. Whoever has the opportunity to get the ball, go for it, possess the ball less, pass the ball more, and don't hesitate to shoot when you have the opportunity. ”

Speaking of this, Popovich also deliberately mentioned Li Feng:

"Forward, don't just focus on breakthroughs, look for opportunities to throw three-pointers, it doesn't matter if you don't hit, let the opponent know that you can also shoot three-pointers."

Tyberdu not only has to fight the run-and-run, but also the run-and-run of the wolves that is more savage and unreasonable than the Sun's.

He's going to fight to the end with a small lineup, and the Knicks are actually happy when they hear Tyberdeau's order.

Loose tactics that allow players to spread out and play will boost the morale of young players. Many young team managers will deliberately let go no matter how the team plays, and let the players play freely.

Some players you ask him to execute tactics to play, he can't play, let him spread out and play, and immediately the dragon is fierce.

Some players, if you let them spread out and play gradually, they will be trained, and when they are mixed up for a few years, and then they will be covered with a sleeve and let them play according to the tactics, and the player will mature. (To be continued......)
