Chapter 2: The Charm of the Small Ball Era

Both sides are back on the pitch.

Spurs: Thiago Split (C), Tim Duncan (PF), Kawhi Leonard (SF), Danny Green (SG), Tony Parker (PG).

Warriors: Andrew Bogut (C), Draymond Green (PF), Harrison Barnes (SF), Klay Thompson (SG), Stephen Curry (PG).

Warriors offensive round.

Curry dribbled past half court, and that's when Leonard came straight to lead Curry.

As a future FMVP, Jr. has now redeemed his talent on the defensive end, and he is now the Spurs' No. 1 big lock.

Curry's current style of play is to hold the ball and break through the shot, and under the limitation of Leonard's long arms, Curry has been dumbed down this time.

Originally, Leonard thought that Curry would continue to attack with the ball.

But unexpectedly, Curry gave the ball directly to Barnes after dribbling past half court.

Instead, Curry mentioned a step inside the three-point line and made a covering move, and Leonard knew that Curry had a shooting threat and didn't dare to let go, so he hurriedly followed.

Could it be Barnes who is attacking?

It was Danny Green who defended Barnes, and the Spurs weren't too worried about Danny Green's defense.

It's just that Barnes took the ball and just passed it to Draymond Green in the low post.

Defending Draymond Green, but Duncan!

If David Lee's low-post offense might still be a bit of a story, Draymond Green, a man who has fallen out of the rotation, wants to play Duncan in his dreams?

But only Popovich frowned.

He's already seen a clue.

I saw that Thompson first used Curry's cover, and then with the help of Barnes's blocking, Draymond Green had already fed the ball the moment he got out of the vacancy.

Because Thompson used to play the role of a fixed-point pitcher, defending Thompson only let Parker defend.

Parker, after two covers, couldn't keep up with Thompson at all.

Su Chen could feel that the simulated glasses were equivalent to directly adding tactical proficiency, and this coordination was very smooth.

Almost everyone's subconscious behavior has become the most suitable time point.

On the surface, this set of tactics is already like the tacit understanding they have developed after a season.

In fact, this set of tactics has indeed been simulated a thousand times by the simulated glasses, which adds a lot of proficiency.

Thompson receives the ball and shoots it without adjustment.

Brush!

Three-pointer scored!

Spurs 83:68 Warriors.

After scoring the goal, Parker looked at Green, who in turn looked at Leonard.

The eyes of all three were full of doubt.

Have the Warriors played like this before?

And the coach didn't have a defensive strategy for this kind of ball!

"The new coach seems to have put in place a completely new tactic and he is playing very fluidly."

The on-site commentators were a little surprised.

"But the Warriors haven't usually played this kind of tactic, and now their score, if there is a mistake, it will be over."

The other commentator shook his head.

Popovich couldn't help but glance at Su Chen, who was on the sidelines of the Warriors' bench, a young face in his twenties.

Just such a young man, but Popovich felt that something was wrong.

However, there is still a 15-point lead, so you can take a look at it a little more.

How can you say that he is also a historical coach, so he won't be stopped by a rookie coach as soon as he comes up, right?

Spurs offensive round.

The Spurs' offense was handed over to Duncan, the most stable point.

As recognized as the first great man in history, Duncan is known as Mr. Da Jigong, and the standard playing board is unpretentious but unsolvable.

Bogut was educated enough by Duncan today, but coach Su Chen still let him defend alone, and he had no choice but to grit his teeth and carry it.

Duncan first observed the defense and found that there was no bag, so he planned to beat Bogut directly.

Bogut is strong, but he can't stand Duncan on the other side!

After another hit, Duncan squeezed out of position and directly chose to shoot on the board.

is the same steady shot as in Duncan's career scoring highlights, and even Bogut knows that this goal is probably scored.

But at the moment when Duncan made a move, a black hand came out from behind Duncan.

It's Draymond Green!

The position assigned to him by Su Chen is a full-court sweeping defense, and his physical strength is enough to support Green, who has not played much after a rest.

And now Draymond Green is also very hardworking, he wants to get ahead!

He wants to make the coach say, climb over this mountain, and let the world hear his story!

Ten years of great basic skills, there are times when the horse stumbles, although the ball is not attacked, but it still interferes with the flight trajectory.

The basketball jumped out of the frame, and Bogut hurriedly protected the rebound at this time.

After Bogut protected the rebound, he did not forget what Su Chen said, and directly launched a fast attack.

However, Curry and Thompson both ran too far ahead, and Bogut, with his own passing ability, did not have the confidence to pass that far.

Barnes wanted to catch the ball, but he stood in front of Leonard, and Leonard's long arm passed the ball nine times out of ten to be confiscated by Leonard.

It was at this point that Draymond Green went crazy for the ball at Bogut.

Duncan went back to defense, and Draymond Green had no one to stop him from receiving the ball.

But Draymond Green is right next to him, and he doesn't give Green a fast break?

However, Bogut couldn't handle the ball himself, and Draymond Green took the initiative to ask for the ball, and it was not bad to throw it off.

After Draymond Green received the ball, he actually launched a long pass directly.

That's a lot of guts!

He Draymond Green is a second-round pick and has been DNP (can't play) before, does he have the ability?

But Draymond Green really did it.

The ball went straight into Klay Thompson's hands.

Thompson catches the ball two steps from beyond the three-point line, and there is no defender in front of him.

Leonard went to defend Barnes, and the frontcourt formed him and Curry to play Parker and Green.

Throughout the series, Curry's breakthrough threat was relatively large, and according to the common sense fast-break method, Thompson should break through with the ball to attract the defense and give it to Curry.

Curry's fast-break single against Parker is still relatively sure.

But Green is coming from his time and cutting off his pass to Curry.

According to common sense, it is best to play a safe 2V2, and stop the ball to play positional battles if you don't have a chance.

But Thompson remembered the fast-break tactics arranged by Su Chen just now, giving him the right to pull out three points directly on the fast break, and Thompson himself also had that confidence in his three-point shot.

I saw Thompson take a step forward, and the speed was not very fast.

"It seems that Thompson is planning to wait for the position to attack, which is a good choice, after all, Green is already judging his passing route......

The on-site commentary voice did not fall.

I saw Thompson one step outside the three-point line and directly pulled out three points.
