Chapter 170: Give It to Me

"Hi Karen, morning. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Seeing Inia open her eyes and look at herself, Li Yang was too late to let go at this time, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "This is yours, right? It's really strange, I don't know how to run to me." ā€

"I accidentally threw it. Li Yang thought that he was embarrassed to say this, but he didn't expect Inya to have an embarrassed expression on her face at this time.

"Because I don't like to sleep in clothes, I took it off in the middle of the night, probably accidentally threw it at you. ā€

Li Yang suddenly heard this, why did he have no impression of picking up this thing at all, the co-author was picked up by Inya, but Inya's throw is also a little accurate, more accurate than her own shooting.

"Yang, give it to me!" Just when Li Yang was thinking like this, Inia suddenly said, making Li Yang's mouth open wide, did you take the initiative to ask for it early in the morning, then......

"Give me back the bra. ā€

Seeing Li Yang's expression, Inia immediately picked up and said, Li Yang only then realized that he was mistaken, and hurriedly handed over the black underwear in his hand.

Being in the same room all night, coupled with such a little embarrassment in the morning, made the relationship between Li Yang and Inya also warm up rapidly, and this breakfast was naturally very comfortable, and it seemed that time passed a lot faster.

In the afternoon, Li Yang came to the arena early, and after letting everyone rest for a day yesterday, Popovich arranged team training today to prepare for the next Western Conference Finals.

The Spurs' opponent in the Western Conference Finals was determined to be the Grizzlies before the Warriors were eliminated, and the Spurs undoubtedly preferred a team like the Grizzlies to the Thunder, whose talent was so good that the Spurs didn't know when the opponent would explode.

The Grizzlies are different, the talent of this team is not outstanding, and like the Spurs, they like to play as a whole, but in terms of the overall cooperation of the team, no team in the league can surpass the Spurs, and the Spurs are not afraid of playing against such a team.

And the Grizzlies are no strangers to the Spurs, two seasons ago, in the first season of the Spurs' adjustment of play, they won the first record in the Western regular season, but they were blacked out by the Grizzlies, so every time they played the Grizzlies in the past two years, the Spurs were as excited as if they had played chicken blood.

Compared to the Warriors' excellent offense, the Grizzlies' strength lies in their defense, and under the tutelage of coach Hollins, the Grizzlies have spent three seasons to become one of the top defensive balls in the league now, and their record is also steadily improving.

And the weakness of the Grizzlies is their offense, especially the ability to attack from the outside, which is very average, and can even be described as poor.

For such a team, the Spurs' tactical arrangement is naturally more targeted. Before training with the team, Popovich first showed the Spurs players some of the Grizzlies' outstanding performances on the defensive end of this year's two-round series to analyze the Grizzlies' defensive characteristics.

"The defense of these rounds shows that the Grizzlies are very good at defending the ball-handler, and it is almost difficult for the ball-handler to rush to the basket to attack. ā€

Popovich selected a few rounds from the video to show the Spurs players, and Li Yang also followed Popovich's explanation and looked carefully at the Grizzlies' defense on the screen.

The first shot was the Grizzlies' game against the Clippers, Paul used the breakthrough after the block, and was tempted by the Grizzlies' defenders to break too deep, and finally made a bad pass.

The other ball is the Grizzlies vs. Thunder game, the ball is the scoring champion Durant this season, Durant forced to break through the offense, at first the Grizzlies' defense was only slightly contracted, not giving Durant a chance to pass the ball, and when Durant rushed into the basket, the Grizzlies' pinch shot quickly put in place, so that Durant finally missed the layup.

Pobove's subsequent picks were all clips of the Grizzlies' defensive success, followed by a few more clips of the Clippers' and Thunder's offensive successes and began to make comparisons.

"The Grizzlies are different from the Warriors in that they have a lot of basket protection, but they have a habit of having two big men on the court, so we're going to have more opportunities on the perimeter. ā€

"But the Grizzlies are doing a great job of rotating defense, and they don't give opponents a chance to shoot from the outside, so what do you do?"

Running and passing! Li Yang quickly gave his own answer in his heart, and at the same time, the other Spurs players also showed the same expression on their faces, Li Yang estimated that everyone should have thought of this part.

Indeed, in his usual training and games, Popovich has always instilled in everyone the idea of finding holes in the opponent's defense through running and passing, so after he asked this question, almost all Spurs players knew the answer.

"Yes, it's about running and moving the ball! We're going to use the ball to drive their defence, specifically to make the big man of the opposition tired. ā€

As he spoke, Popovich re-released the few balls that the Clippers and Thunder had successfully attacked.

Li Yang also found that this is indeed the case at this time, when Paul and Durant hold the ball too much and try to tear apart the Grizzlies' defensive line through their own ability, it is often a failure, and if the rest of the team is involved in moving the ball together, the effect is much better.

Subsequently, Popovich further analyzed the reason for the loss of the Clippers and Thunder against the Grizzlies, that is, the perimeter.

Whether it's the Clippers or the Thunder, there are only one or two stable outside offensive points, which leads to the Grizzlies' defense being very targeted, and sometimes the two teams also know to strengthen the transmission of the ball, but the Grizzlies will only selectively release some players, these people often can't seize this opportunity, and the team naturally falls into passivity.

After explaining all this, Popovich began to lay out the tactics for the first game.

"Attacking the outside, in the first game of the two teams, the Grizzlies won't have too much targeted defense against us, we need to find opportunities to attack outside by blocking and dismantling before the opponent is fully adapted to our offense, and no matter who gets the opportunity on the outside, we must attack resolutely. ā€

First the tactical arrangement, then the tactical drill, Popovich was well prepared, Li Yang only needed to participate in the training with his teammates.

Of course, Popovich didn't just practice how to create offensive opportunities on the outside, how to move the Grizzlies' big man out of the three-second zone, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the interior tactics, and Popovich has prepared a lot.

After training the offense, Popovich began to practice defense again, and arranged special defensive tactics for the Grizzlies' excellent interior offensive ability, especially the situation where Randolph and Gasol's black and white bears have great lethality on the inside.

After such a series of trainings, it took more than three hours, and by the time the training was over, it was close to 7 p.m.

Thinking that Inia was home alone, and she went to the training hall to train in advance, after the team training was over, Li Yang did not practice too much, and after finishing the tactical training, Li Yang left the stadium after practicing free throws.
