The style of play of the playmaker is not so difficult to defend.

This is not Monty Williams' own arrogance or disdain for the play's style of play.

If the center of the organization was Yao Ming, he would definitely not say that.

However, with Jokic as the playmaker, it's a different story.

Jokic can play as an organizational center, and he can play as an organizational center on the stage of the Finals, which is indeed a great surprise to many people.

Monty Williams was actually surprised.

Although he had predicted this before the game, it still surprised him very much.

How can a parallel trade champion, a parallel trade champion who has been made by Popovich's mentality collapse, and who can't even get game time under Popovich, can play at such a level in the hands of Coach D?

Although James was stealed twice in a row in the opening game, Jokic suppressed the thick eyebrows outside the three-point line, which cannot be faked.

Jokic's change in strength is shocking.

However, the shocking Jokic was still not enough for the Lakers to beat the Celtics.

The style of play of the center is not enough for Jokic to lead the Lakers to a fatal blow to the Celtics.

The style of play of the center of the organization is very high-end, but in fact it is not so superb in principle.

It is the center star who uses his offensive threat and organizational ability outside the three-point line to completely open up the space, making the opponent unguardable, and there are gaps everywhere.

The foundation for all of this is the center's offensive threat and playmaking ability from beyond the three-point line.

Yao Ming's threat from beyond the three-point line and playmaking ability are invincible, so the Lakers' playmaking center tactics were invincible last season.

Yao Ming can use Maddy's skills to show off outside the three-point line, James and Wade can't stop Yao Ming from hitting the basketball, after all, Yao Ming is 2.26 meters and has such excellent skills, people feel desperate.

Of all that Yao Ming has, Jokic doesn't own.

said that it is little Yao Ming, in fact, the gap between Jokic and Yao Ming is very big, not to mention whether there is Yao Ming's skill reserve that is almost proficient in all the skills of the inside and outside lines, as far as Yao Ming's height of 2.26 meters is concerned, it is not something that Jokic can touch.

Therefore, even if Jokic wants to break down defenders one-on-one on the outside, it will take more time than Yao Ming.

The center tactics are not so fast, and before the center players build an invincible offensive threat and force the opponent's defense to change, it is actually the outside single tactics of the center forward.

The singles tactics of the outside players on the outside are on the slow side, let alone the center players.

Although the thick eyebrows can't withstand Jokic, however, with Jokic's height, it is impossible for him to easily solve the thick eyebrows, which gives James a very good opportunity.

Two steals in a row against Jokic are the best illustration of this.

Interprets the failure of the tactics of the center of the organization.

After Yao Ming's devastation in last year's playoffs, the entire American tactical community has been studying the tactics of organizing centers.

In the end, after Yao's two successors, Embiid's season reimbursement and Jokic's water, these tacticians came to a unanimous opinion.

That is, only Yao Ming is invincible when he plays the tactics of organizing the center, and it is better not to play the tactics of the organization center for other centers.

If the center wants to have a real impact on the game, he still has to go to the basket like O'Neal and other traditional centers.

Even if Oden can shoot a three-pointer, the three-point cannot be his main means of attack.

Because even Oden doesn't have Yao Ming's incredible height, skill and shooting ability.

Even Oden, an S-level super center, can't play the organizational center tactics, and others are naturally impossible.

Therefore, in anticipation of Coach D's playmaking center tactics in this game, Monty Williams felt that he was simply standing on the shoulders of giants.

There is so much research material for professionals to deal with Coach D.

For example, a center with good skills like Jokic plays a playmaking center outside, so he can resist it first and then take the opportunity to steal.

The frequency of the center is not high, as long as your flanks are fast enough, then don't worry about temporary disposition, just grab!

So, in this game, his starters are both James and Rudy Gay.

James and Rudy Gay are on the left and right side of the thick eyebrows, except for Yao Ming, no center wants to have any operation outside the three-point line!

Monty Williams has such self-confidence.

Now the morale and condition of the Celtics players, the speed of movement and rotation, the offensive and defensive ability, have to increase by two levels.

Such a Celtic, Jokic, a player who played in the Finals for the first time and even the playoffs for the first time, really didn't have much of a chance.

Monty Williams is very curious right now, Coach D, right now, if there is any other means available.

Or is it time to call a timeout and let Jokic adjust?

There is no problem with reusing Jokic, but this is Jokic's first playoff game, and the first playoff game is such an important Finals, and now it has been interrupted by two in a row, so why not give Jokic a little timeout, feed some chicken soup, and adjust it.

Monty Williams feels that he is still a learner, a learner with the mentality of a learner to learn from Coach D, and he really wants to know what Coach D, the best on-court head coach in the NBA, will perform like at such a moment.

To Monty Williams' surprise, Ducon, didn't make any moves.

In fact, after Jokic was tackled twice in a row by James, the commentators from various TV stations on the scene were shouting that Coach D needed to call a timeout to calm down Jokic, or that the tactics had been rearranged.

It is very dangerous that the carefully arranged tactics before the game are directly seen through.

Not to mention these audiences, even Popovich was shocked.

This is Coach D!

Coach D has been in the NBA for the past three years, when has the tactics carefully arranged before the game been so seen through?

Monty Williams not only believes that Coach D will announce the start of this game in advance.

Even, he predicted the playing style of Coach D and the Lakers, and also practiced the tactics in advance.

Obviously, Jokic opened the game with two offenses, and the Celtics players didn't have any surprises or panic.

Obviously, they knew that Jokic would play like this in this game, and only then did James steal so well.

This is really quite powerful.

Popovich felt that with these two hands, any flowery rhetoric in the world could be praised by Monty Williams.

This student of his own is so powerful that he feels that he doesn't know it at all.

He has been fighting with Coach D for so many years, and he has never seen Coach D be so disadvantaged!

"Coach D, do we really need a timeout?"

Popovich still couldn't help asking.

"No, it doesn't make sense."

Dukang's answer stunned Popovich.

Looking at the solemn expression on Du Kang's face, Popovich confirmed his guess even more.

He felt that Coach D was not sure about this game either!

Yes, Popovich's guess is not wrong, and Du Kang is indeed not sure of winning this game.

Monty Williams has exceeded his expectations by much, much.

Therefore, Du Kang is even more glad that he was cautious before the game.

He can clearly feel that he can't make any mistakes in this game, otherwise, he will be crushed.

As for saying that Jokic has been interrupted twice in the opening stanza now, it's not a mistake.

Because......

"I'm afraid Nikolai has never seen such a James, such an opponent, right?"

The solemn expression on Du Kang's face relaxed.

A smile appeared on Du Kang's face again.

It's just that Popovich next to Du Kang was a little dazed at this time.

As a player who played the playoffs for the first time, and a player who played in the Finals for the first time, isn't it normal to never see James in the playoffs?

In the NBA, players are in completely different shapes in the playoffs and the regular season.

A player like Jordan has three different forms, the Finals, the playoffs and the regular season.

So, Popovich had no idea what Dukang meant by talking to himself at this time.

It feels like a complete nonsense talking to himself, how can a playoff rookie like Jokic have such insight.

That's why he's reluctant to use a full rookie in the Finals.

It's not that he doesn't want to use rookies, Parker, Ginobili, was also brought by him all the way.

But whether it's Parker or Ginobili, they only dare to reuse them on a stage like the Finals after they continue to pay tuition and grow in the playoffs.

Jokic didn't play in the first round, how can he believe that Jokic can play in the second round?

The second and third rounds were not played, how can he believe that Jokic can play in the Finals?

No one believed Jokic at this time.

At this time, no one believed Jokic except Dukang.

On the court, Dukang did not call a timeout, and continued to let Jokic hold the ball and play the playmaking center tactics.

Even the Lakers players on the court were a little surprised.

"Coach D acted, and Coach D let Jokic continue the singles Anthony Davis !!"

For a while, the whole stadium was in an uproar.

On the Internet, there are all kinds of voices.

Of course, it's more of a taunt, a mockery of Dukang, a mockery of Jokic.

And in front of the TV, there are the same kinds of voices, the sighs of Lakers fans, the excitement of Celtics fans, and the taunts of neutral fans.

Literally everything.

On the other side of the ocean, many canteens screamed almost at the same time.

If they could, they would love to incarnate Coach Du to command the Lakers.

At the very least, they definitely don't have a special hobby, and they never forget to have such a crush on Jokic.

"Jokic is the only player on the Lakers team who has been trampled on the mud this season, and Coach Xiao Du's character is that no one is missing, including Jokic, everyone, must be glorified!!"

Teacher Zhang Lili's voice is complicated, while appreciating Coach Xiao Du's strange concept, he is extremely heartbroken, at this time, it is really not the time to forcibly save Jokic.

On the court, Wade, who received Du Kang's instructions, did not hesitate, and hit the basketball in his hand to the top of the arc to stand in a good position and jam Jokic with thick eyebrows.

Jokic's one-handed action to catch the ball is quite calm.

Although it was broken twice, there was no panic on his face, which surprised even the Celtic fans and celebrities on the sidelines.

"Although this kid has a bit of a dish, his playing temperament is really good!"

Hearing the words of the famous Kai team next to him, Danny Angie frowned.

At the beginning, he was attracted by Jokic's calm temperament, and almost chose him to the Celtics.

Even now, he still admires Jokic, and if the Lakers are willing to accept a first-round pick, he can trade Jokic to the Celtics.

A player who can convince Coach D that he can play as a playmaker, Jokic should have potential even if he doesn't live up to the title of champion now.

It's just that with a team in the spotlight like the Lakers, the pressure is too much for anyone.

So a lot of people say that the Lakers are not a real basketball team.

The Lakers are an NBA team, but not a team that plays basketball.

After Kobe Bryant's aging, this team should be going down.

was forcibly saved by Coach D.

But even Coach D can't change the commercial attributes of this Laker.

A player like Jokic is actually not suitable for a team like the Lakers.

Danny Angie's love for Jokic is still there, long-lasting.

And James' hatred for Jokic must be long-lasting.

After two steals in a row for Jokic, James was a little overwhelmed.

He felt that he was going to launch a final charge against Jokic, completely crushing Jokic and completely crushing Jokic!

The thick eyebrows have been taped to Jokic.

And James was eager to try it out next to him.

Jokic, of course, saw James' eagerness.

So dribble sideways and take a step back.

Almost at the same time, the thick eyebrows who found the opportunity wanted to break the ball!

It is very dangerous for a center to dribble on the outside, especially if the defender is a player like Bushy Eyebrow.

However, the aggressive steal of the thick eyebrows, this time, was very lightly erased by Jokic.

is still so calm, still so temperamental.

After wiping his thick eyebrows, Jokic called for a pick-and-roll, swapping James in front of Wade in front of him.

Yes, Jokic actually took the initiative to find James!!

Just like Yao Ming always took the initiative to find James in the finals last season, this time, Jokic actually took the initiative to find James!!

Seeing this scene, many people at the scene were really stupid.

And the audience in front of the TV, the fans on the Internet, and the Celtics fans at the scene were all excited after coming back to their senses!!

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!!"

"Revenge !!"

The voice of revenge has already sounded at the scene!

And James on the court, at this time, is really thinking about how to get revenge!

"Boy, let me teach you what the NBA Finals !! are"

James is excited!

"NBA Finals?"

Jokic muttered expressionlessly.

It seems to be remembering something.

Almost instantaneously after!

The whole hustle and bustle of Staples became silent!

Once!

Twice!

Three times!

After clicking three times in a row and finally picking up James, Jokic, unexpectedly, broke through with the ball!!

"James did it on purpose, Jokic was fooled, and James was going to steal again!!"

It is very dangerous for a big center to break through a player like James!

James has already done it!

Many Lakers fans at the scene are afraid to watch it.

At this time, Jokic, who had just dribbled to the free throw line, actually stood on tiptoe at the same time that James was almost starting!!

"Oh my God!!"

"Free throw line !!"

"Jokic wants to throw !! at the free throw line"

O'Neill was dumbfounded!!

The average outside player rarely throws at the free throw line!!

Jokic makes such a move, it's like making people feel like they've seen the magic of the sky hook again!

Feints?!

James immediately thought about whether Jokic was playing fake!

But!

What about the ball?!

James failed to break the ball!

Jokic is really throwing from the free throw line!!

He couldn't block the ball just now, so he could only watch Jokic finish the throw!

James' eyes widened and he looked back at the flying basketball!

The audience watched this flying basketball in an uproar!

The sound of the brush came!

Almost instantly, the audience fell silent again!

This Coach D's own son, the most watery champion in NBA history, was really at the free-throw line, facing James's defense, breaking through a step, completing the emergency stop free-throw line throwing, and also hit!!

"W-how is this possible?"

James was stunned.

And almost at the same time, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Finals? It's all NBA games, and the Finals are no different from the regular season. ”

I can beat you up in the regular season.

Finals, I can do the same!

James was shocked and angry.

"Magical Jokic!! Is Coach D's magical magic going to work on Jokic?!!!! ”

Silent world, once again the hustle and bustle!
