Min Congda hasn't been paying close attention to the Clippers lately.

He travels outside and has a good time while watching other teams play live on TV.

For example, the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Cavaliers have played quite well this season.

After leaving James, they rebuilt the team's roster structure under Min Congda's secret advice.

Sending Vitesse away, he got the taller Ramon Sessions as the main control.

Shooting guard boldly turned on second-round pick Danny Green.

Inside Robin Lopez, Marcus Camby, Landry.

And the knight, under the secret guidance of Min Congda, began to fight one big and four small.

The starting lineup of Lopez, James, Miller, Anthony Parker and Sessions is a decent contender in the East.

Danny Green was sent to the Development League for workouts, and the Cavaliers wanted to cut the player who had no character.

But James tried to protect this little brother, because Min Congda said that "such a player has potential", but in fact, Min Congda is nonsense.

He understands the potential of a fart player, but he just thinks Green is tall and a rare guard for the Cavaliers.

It can be said that in November, as the Clippers continued to lose, Min Congda watched more games for the Cavaliers than for the Clippers.

Some post-game articles also began to use the Cavaliers as an example, and sometimes James would even call Min Congda to exchange experiences and insights.

In the face of this festival envoy and Yoshiko stationed in Cleveland, Min Congda is still willing to give advice.

From a risk perspective, hedging must be done, even if the situation is good, no one knows when the situation will suddenly turn bad.

You see, playing Spurs today, Min Congda felt wrong.

"Did someone show me my tactical article to Lao Deng?"

"There must be a traitor among us!"

The Clippers' biggest traitor, suspecting others of being traitors.

In the first quarter, Min Congda was only aware of it, thinking that the Clippers' defense had the shadow of his own theory.

By the second quarter, a defensive strategy of the Clippers made Min Congda sure that there were traitors!

It's still the pick-and-roll tactics of the Spurs, a combination on the right wing, Parker and McDyce.

The Clippers are still sinking inside, but Harden in the middle line has come to wrap up.

After the pack, Parker immediately passed the ball to McDeis, who took the ball and tried to move to the weak side.

He didn't have the confidence to eat Gasol Jr. one-on-one, while Richardson on the weak side had a chance because Ricky rotated to the middle.

As a result, at the moment when McDyce wanted to pass the ball, the Clippers actually changed from man-to-man defense to 141 joint defense?

This change caught McDyce off guard, and the ball was passed out, but in the zone defense, you didn't look for death by moving the ball laterally in a wide area?

The ball was cut off by Ricky Davis, the ball was given to Harden, Harden quickly counterattacked and hit the basket, a beautiful European step past the defender, and the layup was successful!

At this time, the Clippers were already 37:25, leading the Spurs by 12 points.

The Spurs' invincible blocking + fast offense in the previous game was broken by the Clippers.

Of course, the Spurs were in a bad form tonight, having just played the Golden State Warriors in Oakland yesterday.

So this game is a back-to-back away game, and it is normal for them to play poorly because they are older on average in the original lineup.

Popovich saw that Parker was not in good shape in the middle of the second quarter, and the pick-and-roll was repeatedly cracked, and he couldn't push the counterattack.

He simply let Parker off the court early, replaced him with Gary Neil, and shifted the tactical focus back to the interior.

With Duncan, Blair, and McDyes' low-post offense as the starting point, he began to play the traditional inside-out routine.

The Clippers were not afraid of such a routine at all, and Milicic, who came off the bench in the third quarter, sent big hats in a row and played his strongest performance of the season on the defensive end.

Because he was a substitute, Milicic didn't have to save energy at all, and he was full of energy for 20 minutes.

At the end of the third quarter, the Clippers had a 91-65 lead over the Spurs by as many as 26 points, directly blowing up the first place in the West.

The fourth quarter directly became garbage time, and Popovich was also very cooperative to replace the garbage player and did not resist.

In the end, the Clippers won 110-85 at home, with a 25-point advantage over the Spurs, who are the first in the West, at home.

After watching this game, Min Congda only had two thoughts in his heart:

First, "Technical adjustments, don't panic, Spurs are too tired." ”

Second, "There really are traitors!" ”

In addition to the second quarter, in the middle and late stages of the third quarter, the Clippers also used the difficult collective defensive skills of "wrapping and turning to joint defense".

This kind of defense is also specifically proposed by Min Congda in the article, arguing that "man-to-man and zone defense can not only switch in multiple defensive rounds to play the role of rhythm change, but also can be converted in a single defense to confuse offensive players to achieve the effect of surprise." ”

This style of defense, when used correctly, can be very effective.

Because the player does not have a God's perspective on the field, he does not see a high-altitude aerial view.

If there is a sudden big change in the opponent's defensive strategy, the attacker's choice will definitely be problematic.

However, Min Congda also pointed out, "This kind of defense requires a high degree of tacit understanding and a lot of training, and once it is not used properly, it will leak a big gap and be punished by the opponent, which is very risky." ”

Therefore, this kind of defense requires a lot of training, and at the same time, it cannot be used often in the game, and the error tolerance rate is too low.

It can be used suddenly at certain critical moments, and can play a role in turning the situation and hitting the opponent.

"Damn, which traitor leaked the contents of my article? Did someone hack into my blog? Or did I leave a draft somewhere else? ”

"Or, is it really Lao Deng who came up with it himself?"

Min Congda especially wants to set up an investigation team to strictly investigate the traitors inside the Clippers!

But if you think about it, if you really check it, isn't it yourself who you find in the end?

Forget it, don't check it randomly, just think it was Lao Deng who came up with it himself.

And there is a certain element of luck that the Clippers can beat the Spurs so badly tonight.

The Spurs' back-to-back fatigue on the road, Parker's minor injury, and the Clippers' team-wide outburst of form, etc.

Min Congda, who has experienced strong winds and waves, knows that game tactics only play a part.

The form of the players and the performance on the field are often more decisive.

However, this incident also reminded Min Congda that some tactical suggestions really can't be scribbled.

Especially for the Clippers, some good advice can really make a huge difference to the team.

Previously, Min Congda had been giving the Clippers "wrong" tactical advice.

What to give the outside line more ball to play, the inside line as the core to play slow and other contradictory, and the trend of tactical direction.

But this tactical direction is still too general, and if you fight, you may still go to the right path.

After thinking about it, a genius idea popped up in his mind: "By the way, I can make a tactical system that is completely behind the times and forcibly let the Clippers fight!" That way, they won't be on the right path! ”

So, the biggest traitor to the Clippers, took a month off and got back to work.
