Chapter 208: Tactical Master (1st Update)
"How could the Lakers lose Game 5? What's going on? ”
"It's really speechless, unscientific, unreasonable, Kobe Bryant didn't bottom out?"
"There's nothing going to be wrong with the Lakers, right? Shall I call Jerry Bass and ask about the situation and see if I can help? ”
"No, no, if I look for Bass at this time, they will think I'm provoking, and the situation will be even worse."
"Hey! Sure enough, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, look at you, look at it, this situation is over, right? ”
After the fifth game between the Clippers and the Lakers, Min Congda was full of anxiety for a whole day.
On the one hand, he was puzzled by the collapse of the Lakers in Game 5, and on the other hand, he regretted why he had to help the Clippers with more words.
Okay now, help something happen, right? Not to mention the loss of $6,000, the series suddenly became suspenseful.
Min Congda wrote an article after the game to review the fifth game between the Lakers and the Clippers, and he tried to look at this incredible Clippers victory with an objective mentality.
From the beginning of the first quarter, the game deviated from the expected track of Min Congda.
The Lakers started the game with a very poor offensive touch, and repeatedly missed shots inside and outside.
And the Clippers found confidence against the Lakers with a win in their last game.
Defensively, offensively, played much better than the first three games.
Obviously, the players as a whole have been sublimated.
Most importantly, they found a way to play against the Lakers.
The series is all about finding ways for everyone to restrain each other.
You look for my loopholes, and I'll look for your loopholes.
I attack you for your flaws, but I also make up for my own flaws.
Basically, the series is in the sixth game, and there are no secrets between the two sides.
Each will find the most suitable lineup, rotation and tactical routine.
If the strength is close, then the victory or defeat of the game will depend on the hard power of the players and the on-the-spot performance.
Now in Game 5, the Lakers have not adapted to the Clippers' new style of play and routines.
Randolph's low-post offense is largely gone.
The ball is heavily held by Curry, Gordon and Davis.
Curry, in particular, is still on the second team.
However, the Lakers can't completely ignore Randolph.
The Black Fat Man used his mid-range, frontcourt rebounds, and impacting the basket after receiving the ball to stir up trouble on the Lakers' interior.
Of course, the real problem is that the Lakers are in poor shape.
Only 17 points in a game was too little for the Lakers.
Bryant scored just 12 points in the game.
The last time he scored less than 15 points in the playoffs was in Game 7 of last year's semifinals against the Rockets.
But Kobe Bryant's lack of scoring in that game was not because of poor form, but because the Lakers were in excellent condition as a team.
Directly smashed the Rockets in the tiebreaker, Kobe Bryant didn't have to shoot at all, and the team won.
This one was the complete opposite, with the Lakers being crushed by the Clippers.
They trailed by 12 points in the first quarter and by 18 points at halftime.
In the second half, he tried to turn the tables, but neither attack nor defense improved.
The result was a near-humiliating defeat for the Lakers.
The Clippers won heartily.
For a while, NBA public opinion was quite shaken.
A set of games that were previously considered to be the least suspenseful.
It immediately became the focus of the first round of attention.
By this time, some of the strong teams had already entered the next round.
In the East, the Cavaliers, Celtics, and Magic have all successfully qualified.
In the West, the Suns, Trail Blazers, Lakers, Jazz, the series reached Game 6.
It is understandable that several other series were played in Game 6, and it is impossible to say that the Lakers led 3-0 and were dragged to Game 6.
Moreover, the sixth game is still on the home court of the Clippers, and it is still unknown whether the Lakers can get out of the way.
The so-called no regrets, Min Congda accidentally opened up the second line of the Clippers.
This has made a major change in the course of the series.
"TM, Phil Jackson, you're still handsome, you can't bear such a small tweak, I don't think you want to win another championship in the future. I don't care what happens in the sixth game, I'll write the fourth and fifth games together and send them to Fan Chen. This kid started urging again, where did he understand my difficulties. ”
Although Fan Chen is a Lakers fan, he is very excited that the Clippers can win two games in a row.
After all, after watching the Clippers game and the game with Min Congda for a long time, I already have feelings.
For the summary of these two games, Fan Chen and a group of domestic fans are very much looking forward to it.
Although Min Congda was in a bad mood, he still completed his update task on time and on time.
For the summary of these two games, Min Congda came up with a title, "The Victory of Space and Ball Possession".
He wrote into the article what he learned about the transition of offensive space and the digestion of the ball in these two games.
In 2010, the professionalism of domestic football critics was still limited to the analysis of high-level data.
However, higher-level data is only an aid to analyzing the situation, not the only indicator.
The real interpretation of the game still needs to be combined with the situation on the field and what happens on the field.
Data is just an abstraction, and the same data can be a reflection of different match situations.
Min Congda's article hit the blind spot of most fans and football critics at that time.
Fan Chen thought it was very exciting after reading it, and this time he didn't have time to translate it and immediately sent it to the dog pounce.
However, the response was a little bland, and the first thought of most ordinary fans was: I don't understand it, and it doesn't seem to be particularly exciting.
"We want to know more about the mood of the players and the mood of the general manager of the Clippers."
"yes, I don't know how the Clippers and Lakers owners feel now, it's definitely completely different from the other day."
"Not to mention the team manager and owner, the Lakers fans and the Clippers fans have flipped."
"Clippers fans are celebrating the New Year, Lakers fans are uncomfortable, but you must grab seven!"
Sheng Fan was also very helpless, he knew that M God was the general manager of the Clippers, he looked at this article and thought to himself No wonder the Clippers are so powerful.
It turned out that there was such a strong general manager, and after the Clippers won, he had no pride and performance at all, and he was very calm.
With this calmness and calmness, Fan Chen felt that it was enough for him to study for two or three hours.
Subsequently, Fan Chen translated the article into English and posted it on a foreign blog account.
After posting the blog post, Fan Chen didn't care, because the number of views of foreign blogs was not large.
American fans are similar to Chinese fans, and they are more concerned about star gossip, trade news, and team black materials.
So NBA-Batman's Twitter has a very high following base and is very active.
Blogs that focus on post-match commentary and tactical analysis have much less attention.
Only a small number of veteran fans will pay attention and leave messages, and most people have little interest in things that are too professional.
But after waking up the next day, Fan Chen found that there were many replies to this blog.
The number of clicks is much higher than the previous article, what is the reason for this?
Then Fan Chen saw a backstage private message, and Fan Chen did not reply to all the private messages.
But this one piqued his interest, for it was written:
I'm Dallas Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle, and I read your post-game analysis and I think it's very well written. I wonder if you're interested in working for the Mavericks. If you have one, please reply to me and I will give you my contact information.
Fan Chen thought to himself: "Is it really the head coach of the Mavericks?" ”
He clicked on the number and looked at it, and the real-name authentication turned out to be really Maverick Carlisle head coach Rick Carlisle!
He must have been conquered by Mr. Min's article, a "Triumph of Space and Ball Possession", which actually moved Rick Carlisle. However, how could a tactical master like Mr. Min go to the calf? ”
Fan Chen did not reply to Carlisle in the end, he could not reveal his identity.
But his heart was filled with reverence for Min Congda.
This "The Victory of Space and Ball" made Fan Chen feel that he had faintly touched the door of the temple of basketball tactics that had not been touched in the past.
This is a seemingly unremarkable but actually extremely important review from the perspective of basketball philosophy.
Nash's "The Equilibrium Point of the N-Man Game" is only two pages long, but it turns Adam Smith's economics and game theory on its head. Mr. Min's "The Victory of Space and Ball Possession" may also subvert the current basketball ecology..."
A strong feeling echoed in Fan Chen's chest, and he thought that if Min Congda was a coach, he would definitely be very remarkable.
