Chapter 47: The defensive ability of the five small ones is displayed
The director of this game is very happy.
It doesn't make a difference to him who wins between the Grizzlies and the Warriors, the key is to have a show effect.
For Su Chen to choose the most commented style of play, how could he not be happy.
In one of the offices of the upper echelons of the Alliance.
Xiao Hua is also watching this game.
At this time, Xiao Hua was not yet the president of the alliance, but his support is very high now, and there is no threat to competitors.
Next year, he will probably become the new president of the alliance.
"The Warriors' style of play is really good, and if they can win the championship, it will definitely change the league landscape."
"Modern basketball should also change, so that more young people like basketball, it's not something low-post."
Xiao Hua looked at the lineup that Su Chen discharged, not only did not laugh, but appreciated it very much.
It's a pity that he is not the president of the alliance now.
If he could, he would really like to win this team, which is very much in line with his new business philosophy.
If you think about it, old-school basketball is very particular about physical confrontation.
Old-school basketball gives the impression that muscles collide, which undoubtedly raises the bar for basketball.
Someone who really likes muscle collisions, he might as well go to rugby, where the physical confrontation is almost full.
Xiao Hua feels that the improvement of basketball skills is the real path for the future of the league.
Curry, the star of the Warriors, plays with dribbling skills to get out of position and then shoots difficult three-pointers.
This style of play is very much in line with Xiao Hua's positioning for the future alliance.
Basketball is not a clash of muscles, but a demonstration of basketball skills, which lowers the threshold for ordinary people to enter the league.
Rugby emphasizes the ultimate confrontation, then basketball emphasizes the ultimate skill.
Back on the field.
Countless people's eyes, as well as the camera, all looked at Su Chen for the first time.
Su Chen held his hands in front of him, looking at the court with a calm expression, looking serious and engaged.
No doubt.
Su Chen is not joking about this five-small starting lineup.
And at this time, the game also began.
Gasol Jr., who has a clear advantage in height and reach, successfully jumped the ball with ease and put the ball into Conley's hands.
and Gasol Jr. jumped the ball, showing the smallness of Draymond Green's size.
"Inside, inside!"
Lionel Hollins doesn't care if any tactics will be seen through at this time.
He didn't even want to use any code gestures, and shouted directly to the players on the sidelines.
Indeed, with the Warriors, a five-small lineup, it is to play the inside line with open cards.
There's nothing to hide about this.
Su Chen dared to put on this small lineup, then he would definitely think that the other party would play the inside, and Lionel Hollins didn't bother to hide it and just roared to play the inside.
"I want to see what your confidence is."
Lionel Hollins smiled coldly.
However, the Grizzlies play the inside line, but this ball is not to hit Gasol Jr. against Draymond Green.
After all, in the last game, Draymond Green defended Randolph alone and showed a tough defensive ability.
It's not that I'm afraid of Draymond Green, the main Warriors have weaker points, so they must pick the weak points to play.
The alignment between Randolph and Richard Jefferson suddenly became an eye-catching position.
Conley wants to feed the ball to Randolph.
However, Conley took a look and saw that Richard Jefferson had gone straight to Randolph to defend the front.
Although Richard Jefferson and Randolph are not in the same heavyweight class, Randolph is 2.06m and Richard Jefferson is 2.01m.
In terms of height alone, Richard Jefferson is even taller than Draymond Green, who plays center.
There is not much difference in height and size between Richard Jefferson and Randolph, and Richard Jefferson's defense around the front still compresses Randolph's receiving space.
Seeing this kind of scene, to be honest, Conley didn't want to pass on Randolph a little.
Because this kind of passing can greatly increase the turnover rate.
But the tactic is to beat Randolph, and he can't go against the team's tactical instructions.
It took Conley seven or eight seconds to find an opportunity to feed the ball to Randolph.
"It was a little bit of a way to prevent the ball from going around and it worked, but once it came in, Richard Jefferson was out of position."
Bagley also explained.
When Randolph received the ball, Richard Jefferson was really not afraid to lose his position and jumped to try to intercept the pass.
Richard Jefferson almost slammed the ball, startling Randolph.
However, after receiving the ball, Randolph directly planned to attack the frame.
He didn't make any moves, and Richard Jefferson himself was out of position.
But while the ball was in flight, Barnes was already leaning towards him.
Conley's pass is a high lob, after all, it is for stability, but the ball speed is also quite slow.
This allowed Randolph to catch the ball and already see a Barnes in front of him.
Randolph was angry and wanted to get Barnes away.
But Richard Jefferson, who was out of position, is back.
Randolph kicked a Barnes, and was blocked by Richard Jefferson in front, and when Randolph wanted to open Richard Jefferson again, Barnes came back, and the two directly clamped Randolph's bag.
Caught between two people, Randolph tried to break free with brute force.
Randolph wanted to rush out of the way and hit Richard Jefferson directly, but Richard Jefferson was so experienced that he pulled off the stool when Randolph was dressing.
Randolph stumbled and fell to the ground, and the ball was snatched away by Barnes.
After the steal, Barnes rushed directly down the fast break with the ball.
Curry and Thompson also ran left and right.
It was Prince and Tony Allen who were successful in the defense, and Conley was a step slower and had to follow behind Curry.
Barnes rushed straight to the basket, and Tony Allen, who was defending Curry's side, was forced to defend under the basket.
Seeing this, Barnes gave the ball to Curry.
Curry catches the ball from outside the three-point line and shoots straight away.
Conley was two spots behind, and he jumped without disrupting Curry, who was shooting just too fast.
Brush!
Grizzlies 0:3 Warriors,
wanted to bully the Grizzlies on the Warriors' inside, but the Warriors didn't bully them, but were beaten for a three-point chase because of a mistake.
"Focus, focus!"
Lionel Hollins was thundering on the sidelines.
For this first goal, he couldn't just call a timeout, he could only shout on the sidelines.
Randolph raised his hand to his teammates at this time, indicating that the ball was his mistake.
Grizzlies' offensive round.
This time, Randolph still asked for the ball in the low post, and Richard Jefferson kept interfering and did a state of jumping up to interfere.
Conley knew that the Warriors would do the bag, so he didn't dare to grab Richard Jefferson's quick pass when he was jumping.
It took another seven or eight seconds to get the ball into Randolph's hands.
This time Randolph was smart.
Seeing Barnes come to the pack, he immediately passed the ball to Prince.
