Chapter 726 Be Hard on Yourself



Chapter 726 Be Hard on Yourself

Three and a half minutes into the game, the Spurs made three turnovers, and the Kings took the opportunity to make three quick transitions.

The key score is not the point, the point is that the Kings have entered the most familiar and favorite rhythm of fast offensive and defensive transitions.

Although there were also continuous iron strikes, the king's group of young people were full of energy and fighting spirit, and they ran back and forth five times without panting.

On the Spurs side, Leonard and Danny Green are excellent candidates to defend against fast breaks, but they can't successfully limit the Kings every time. If the Kings continue to run smoothly, the old Spurs Will automatically collapse physically.

The Spurs must reduce turnovers.

Ginobili became the best candidate.

It’s just that such a substitution is exactly what the Kings hoped for. The problem of being overwhelmed by the Spurs’ substitutes in the first quarter of the rotation that has plagued the Kings in the past five games can be improved in advance. The strategy that Su Yang arranged before the game has achieved great success depends on the execution effect how.

Su Yang thought for a moment, and then told the king's generals: "After the timeout, change to attack around the Spurs' defense..." Ginobili is about to retire, and the defense is not bad except for the positioning experience, and the lateral movement and confrontation are already very poor. Get caught and say goodbye.

A few people in Curry nodded to show their understanding, and the whole team once again stood shoulder to shoulder and shouted 123 in unison.

The whistle for the end of the pause followed.

The announcer loudly announced that Ginobili would replace Danny Green, and the audience cheered, feeling like they were waiting for a savior.

Probably because of desperate situation to see Manu.

The referee whistled the ball and the Spurs kicked off from the backcourt baseline.

Parker dribbled the ball across the center line, shifted his hands from strength to strength, Leonard took the ball in the center of the arc, and then passed it to Ginobili on the left.

Gasol and Adelaide rushed to the left wing at the same time, and each of them set up a wall as a cover. Ginobili took the opportunity to start and rushed to the top of the arc, but suddenly threw the ball to Adelaide who turned and cut in. The angle was quite strange and he successfully tricked Brother Antetokounmpo, and Adelaide easily made an empty basket.

Bang Dang is a dunk, and the cheers from the ATT center burst.

"Well, I admit that I was also deceived..."

Su Yang casually complained that Ginobili's pass just now, at first glance, was for Par who was running off the ball on the right. As an outsider, he was deceived. It is more normal for Antetokounmpo to be deceived in it , I can only say that Ginobili is awesome.

The arena turned to full defensive shouts.

The two teams switched possession and the Kings launched an offense.

The horn formation is in place, Iverson crosses the running position to leave space for the starting hand, connects to the top of the arc to cover, Curry easily gets rid of Parker, strides into the paint area, and successfully attracts Leonard to shrink from the weak side on the right. Defense, jump up and pass the ball to the corner.

Tatum received the ball wide open, aimed steadily at the basket and threw a three-pointer, and hit the net with a bang, 12 to 4.

The Spurs immediately launched a counterattack, and the triangle conduction started.

Ginobili took the ball from the left wing, raised his hands high and prepared to hang a pass to Adelaide on the left waist. He successfully attracted Daluo's defensive attention, but passed the ball to Gasol who was open at the free throw line, but Gasol It seemed that he was afraid and didn't dare to make a move in time.

Popovich immediately roared and roared.

Gasol hurriedly passed the ball to Leonard, and then stepped forward, setting up a wall with a 45-degree three-point line on the right as a screen.

The Kings used the drop coverage strategy as usual. Tatum squeezed through the screen to catch up, and did not give an emergency stop to shoot a three-pointer, while Da Luo stayed in the paint and walked parallel to Leonard, not giving him an easy breakthrough. Encouraged Leonard Nader made an emergency stop and made a mid-range shot.

Leonard wanted to rush to the basket,
His eyes were red, he made three strong steps with the ball, jumped up with Daluo's defense on his back, and put the ball back to the basket.

The basketball was caught in the net, and the referee blew his whistle at the same time, calling Daluo for a foul and giving Leonard an additional penalty.

Cheers erupted in the ATT Center, all the famous Spurs applauded one after another, and Methaway on the sidelines pumped his fists excitedly.

Su Yangxin said that Brother Kazi was too ruthless, especially compared to Gasol who didn't dare to make an open mid-range shot, it was a world of difference.

Adding a penalty and going into the net, the Spurs chased 7 to 12, and it seemed to be getting better. Ginobili's appearance had obvious effects.

The two teams switched offense and defense.

The Kings started again in a bull-horn formation, but without Iverson's cross-cut running position, he directly made a back screen. Curry accelerated, misplaced and faced Aldridge who was changing defenses. He pretended to sink his shoulders and lower his center of gravity to prepare for the start. A CIC.

Ade was frozen in place.

The basketball slammed into the net hollowly.

Military training scoring is a bit of a mentality. It seems that Adelaide did not try to defend, but in fact it was just seconds.

Turning to the Spurs' zipper tactics, Leonard took the ball at the top of the arc, and with the help of Gasol's cover, he rushed to the basket again.

But Daluo has previous experience, and he decisively went up without giving space. Together with Tatum, he formed a front and rear pincer effect. Leonard could only stop and turn around, pass the ball in a hurry, disassemble the outer bullet and stop within the three-point line One step Gasol, the offense completely stagnated.

Gasol still didn't dare to make a long-range shot after receiving the ball, he just raised it up to make a shot, then rushed forward and stopped at the waist, then turned around and hit back, turned forward, took off, hooked and released the basket, the technical movements were quite smooth , but ended up with a deviation in strength and hit the front basket.

The basketball rebounded, Antetokounmpo jumped into his hand, landed and turned around and handed it to Curry. The King launched a fast break counterattack.

With Popovich's eager call back, the Spurs retreated to the half court in a blink of an eye, and it seemed that there was no chance of a fast break.

Su Yang felt that Curry might stop and rush to shoot, because the player defending Curry was Manu Ginobili, who raised his hands at the same time while thinking about it, and Curry really stopped and jumped, facing the auspicious Nobili swooped in and raised his hand for a three-pointer.

bass!The basketball is hollow into the net.

Curry fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, Su Yang yelled a foul, and the king's bench players also yelled AND1, but the referee ran away without paying attention.

Curry turned over and got up in a hurry, blocked Parker from the right wing position of the frontcourt, the basketball was passed to Aldridge, and the King's defense leaked, but it was not anyone's fault, but Curry was knocked to the ground, and the Spurs took the opportunity to attack. Among them, the defensive formation changed.

I saw that Ade shot the ball after catching the ball, and the two points hit the iron.

Da Luo got the rebound, and Curry took the ball and counterattacked. He hit the paint area in three seconds and successfully attracted the encirclement.

The basketball was passed to LaVine, who followed up at 45 degrees on the right, and a three-pointer was launched, but it was a pity.

The Spurs counterattacked with the rebound, and LaVine chased after him. In a hurry, he took the ball from behind Leonard, successfully removed the ball, and followed the basketball to the sideline, but bumped into Ginobi who was standing still. Lee, the referee's whistle blew almost simultaneously.

Offensive foul!

"This foul is not unjust, but you can't double-standard whistle, this whistle is too fast..." Su Yang spread his hands at Scott Foster, admitting that LaVine did hit Ginobili, after all He's a master at drawing offensive fouls, that's normal.

"It's no wonder the 76ers offered Ginobili $1400 million in the offseason. He has almost no statistics, but he is very effective, and his defense is relatively poor..." Mike Brown fully appreciated that Ginobili's sense of presence was indeed full, and he felt He was there.

Seeing that they were about to lead by more than 10 points, Ginobili stopped the car again, and the Spurs still had the ball and launched an attack from the sideline.

Cheers erupted in the arena. Parker used Aldridge's cover to lift the ball up, and then used Aldridge's second cover to break through to the left. Unfortunately, he could not break free from the defense and threw the ball to the left corner in a hurry. Leonard took the ball and crossed Changed direction, half-turned and swayed towards the basket.

That's obviously not a technical move that Leonard is good at, but the king's right side is full of defenders, he can only go to the left side, and he wants to rush to the basket to cause damage. There is no better choice for technical moves, and the next second he sees the basketball smash The basket hit the iron and rebounded, but failed to succeed.

Daluo received the rebound and made a long pass to the frontcourt. Curry received the ball and passed it to Antetokounmpo who had already caught Ginobili on the right waist.

The difference in height and weight was too great, and Ginobili couldn't defend normally, so he suddenly chose to withdraw the chair, but Antetokounmpo skillfully stopped the back kick, turned around before closing the ball, and looked like Nowitzki in a trance. Steadily throw a mid-range high throw.

The basketball hit the basket and rebounded into the net. The Kings led 19 to 7. The Spurs collapsed a little bit. Popovich called a timeout again.

In the ESPN live broadcast seat, Van Gundy suddenly sighed: "I feel that Popovich is not as fierce as before in terms of mentality. I thought he would give up Gasol in this game and change to Aldridge as a center, with Gay as a power forward. Shortening the rotation and the Kings are desperately fighting, but he still chooses to favor a conservative strategy, and it seems that the effect is not good at present, especially Ginobili's mention of appearance."

Jackson shook his head: "It can't be said that the effect is not good, it can only be said that it is a double-edged sword. The effect of Ginobili's two passes and one offensive foul is obvious, but the defensive end allows Curry and Antetokounmpo to score respectively. The Spurs' The ultimate problem has not been resolved, that is, the Kings chose to pinch the passing route to force them to play singles, only Leonard can play normally, this timeout will determine a lot..."
