Chapter 415: Reclaiming a City (Third Update)

At halftime, it stands to reason that the Clippers lead by 18 points, and everyone should be easy.

But the atmosphere in the team was subtle, because everyone could see that Mr. Smart was unhappy.

Of course Min Congda is not happy, how can TM's be so fierce?

Are the Trailblazers so vulnerable? The Clippers are so powerful?

He felt that this was very unreasonable.

Put aside the subjective position, jump out of the identity of the traitor, and watch the first half of the game from the perspective of a ball critic.

The Trail Blazers were clearly led down by the Clippers' "messy" rhythm.

Curry's half-time break in the first quarter put McMillan's setup in vain.

Then, Milicic's crash was a turning point.

That's when the morale of the Clippers started.

Until George came on the scene, it ended perfectly, and the Trail Blazers were full of question marks.

But in the third quarter, if the Trail Blazers could hold their ground, the situation wouldn't be so ugly.

Min Congda is also a "backstabbing expert", and he has a lot of experience in being backstabbed.

The Trailblazer can mess up, he can't mess up.

With his experience watching games from the sidelines for two seasons and his understanding of basketball, he thinks there was an element of luck in the Clippers' halftime play.

Logically speaking, large-scale and large-scale rotation is very detrimental to the player's condition.

Especially young players like Curry and Harden are not so experienced in the game.

The skills of the arena are not proficient enough, and they are still in the growth stage, so they need time to feed.

Min Congda suddenly let Curry off the court in the first quarter, which has already cut off his good game feeling.

The Clippers can lead so much later, mainly because the Trail Blazers are blinded, and the black and white duo penetrate the Trail Blazers inside.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Clippers' fluid, landslide and tsunami-like attack was gone.

In the second half of the second quarter, the opponent was caught off guard, but can it continue to play like this in the third quarter?

Min Congda, who has calmed down, believes that there is no such possibility.

"Ahem! Everyone played well in the first half, although there were still a lot of flaws, but I was satisfied. ”

A smile appeared on Min Congda's face, and the atmosphere in the locker room suddenly eased a lot.

Everyone thought, right, the first half was 18 points ahead, why is Mr. Smart still with a straight face, unscientific.

No matter how perfectionist it is, it shouldn't be like this, right?

"This shows that our 15-man rotation strategy is correct and must be resolutely implemented!"

"We'll try different combinations of lineups, and if you don't feel comfortable and can't play, it just means... Your level is too poor. ”

Min Congda was determined to stick with the 15-man rotation and not give up halfway through the lead in the first half.

Min Congda, who suffered from backstabbing, made a decision completely calmly for the first time, rather than taking it for granted.

Compared to the role of general manager, the role of head coach is more clearly grasped because he is really talented in basketball.

The players are also full of confidence and feel that they will continue to win smoothly in the second half.

At halftime, the third quarter began, but the situation on the court changed somewhat.

The Trail Blazers made adjustments in the midfield and came out of the chaos of the shifting run.

McMillan: You could say he doesn't have a high ceiling for coaching, but the floor is really guaranteed.

The 18-point difference is not a reflection of the true strength of the two teams, and the Trail Blazers are not that bad.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Trail Blazers focused on the interior on the offensive end.

With Aldridge as the axis of attack, patiently carry out positional warfare attacks.

In basketball, it's important to focus on me.

Players can only perform at their best when they are familiar with the rhythm of the game.

Ade's back-to-back offense and his precise mid-range jumper made it difficult for Randolph to defend.

Defensively, McMillan's set-up in the first quarter came into play in the third.

Wesley Matthews defended Curry, and Felton, the fat guy, went to Harden.

Batum was asked to help defend Harden and Curry a lot, and basically left Ricky Davis empty.

At the same time, the interior line and the Clippers make the same choice - they can't be killed!

Since the increase in pick-and-roll tactics from the outside in the past two seasons, several teams have begun to experiment with the strategy of sinking back to protect the basket.

Even Kevin Garnett, the former upline-arc top spider, began to appear more in the No. 5 position, shrinking inside and not going out.

Because the Mavericks and Clippers have set a good example, teams have realized that the three-point and basket threats are the greatest.

The middle distance can be put appropriately, it doesn't matter.

After all, players like Kobe Bryant are gradually dying out in the league.

Maddie has long been scrapped, Iverson has retired, and Joe Johnson is difficult to achieve.

The league's mid-range players are dying, and the only young player currently showing signs of success in the mid-range is Kevin Durant.

So the Thunder are also one of the teams with the fewest three-point shots in the league.

Once the threat in the middle range is not so great, the space is stretched wide again.

Then the need for a sweep between the three-point line and the three-second zone drops.

Defensive resources should be tilted to the three-point line-under-basket, and the sweeping and pressing defensive interior will gradually become less mainstream.

Of course, it takes a process, it's just that the trend has picked up.

The Trail Blazers are a team that has not been a top team for many years, but they can always have a place in the playoffs.

It shows that the team construction and tactical research are still very good, but the injury management is too poor.

Soon, the Trail Blazers hit the Clippers on a 12-5 run at the beginning of the third quarter to recover seven points.

During this time, Ade scored 8 points alone, using his height and reach to beat Randolph without temper.

That's the problem with Randolph's defense, everything would have gone wrong with David West before.

Ade is taller than West and has long arms, which must be difficult to defend against.

At this point, it's time for a normal coach to call a timeout to adjust.

But how could Min Congda call a timeout?

Seeing the Trail Blazers pick up in the third quarter, he couldn't wait to keep playing like this.

Curry and Harden are young after all, third-year graders.

The downwind ball clicks in, and the headwind is a bit inexperienced.

Last season's playoffs were the same, and when it came to the crunch time, it was Randolph and Baron Davis who really made a difference.

A pass error in Harden's offense, a counterattack opportunity for the Trail Blazers, and Matthews passed the ball to Batum for a layup!

The score became 67:58, and the difference narrowed to within 10 points, and there were only 9 points!

Now Min Congda is not called a pause, the official is going to call a pause, and it is time to put an advertisement.

Min Congda scolded in his heart, "Mom, is it so easy to fight?" The official is going to jump out and call a ghost to pause, it's annoying! ”m.

The Clippers starters returned to the bench dejectedly, and the 18-point advantage was really gone for a while.

Playing away from home, Portland's fans are in a tsunami, and the morale of the Trail Blazers is coming back little by little.

Steve Cole reminded Min twice that he should call a timeout.

Min Congda said: "Let the players solve the problem on their own. Did Zen masters do this before? ”

Cole nodded, but he thought, the Zen master is not as tough as you.

Min Tsung-da pulled one back slightly, further strengthening his confidence in the 15-man rotation.

Some people died, but not completely......
