Chapter 1495 He doesn't pass the ball
5 consecutive games of 40+, which is already alarming, because this kind of scoring is not common even in modern times.Some media have already begun to report on this matter, but it is not strong enough. Waiting for Tang Qian to come again a few times, it will be very different.

The next game the Lakers and the Spurs face off, the Spurs are still very strong.Even if Duncan retired, they still maintained a strong momentum. They are currently 44 wins and 13 losses, and they are competing with the Rockets for the third place in the Western Conference.The competition between the two teams is quite fierce. You come and go. So far, the difference between the two teams is only half a game.The first is the Warriors, and the second is the Lakers, which has won 8 consecutive victories.

Because it is a strong team, a live broadcast across the United States is naturally unavoidable.

The Spurs' lineup is still the same, the evolved Leonard + Aldridge + Dewayne Dedmon + Tony Parker + Danny Green.In fact, to tell the truth, they are very strong, but this strength is limited.Especially in the current league, their "dual virtue combination" is actually not enough to watch.At least in the west, it is.

Why is the original time and space swept away by Yu Yuyong? Is it because of poor strength?No, Leonard is very fierce this season, especially in the playoffs, his PER has soared to 31+!The key ball is also very stable.However, it's just that they have more stars and more firepower.So don't look at this Spurs team being swept by Yu Yuyong, in fact, their strength is still very good.

The overall atmosphere and the new core are in place, coupled with Popovich's guidance, the "GDP" era has basically been transitioned without a trace.So if you want to play against the Spurs, you have to do well first, and it is difficult to easily defeat his level.And what the Spurs are most afraid of are unreasonable shooters. Once this kind of outside line appears, the Spurs will often suffer.Kobe Curry, Durant, both, especially Kobe and Durant's indiscriminate attacks, super shooters who don't need any space, are the goals that the Spurs have not perfectly solved for so many years.

But the Lakers don't have this kind of person. Butler has now transformed into an efficient play style, but compared with the above few, he still falls several notches.First of all, scoring ability and singles level are not at the same level.They can beat the Spurs hard, but Butler can't.

The Spurs also seem to be ready for a battle with the Lakers, and with home court advantage, they feel good.

How should I put it, it is the kind of person who walks into the examination room full of confidence, thinking that he is well-prepared, that he is not afraid of any difficulties, that he can read through thousands of volumes, and write like a god.Well, as it turned out, the Lakers hit them hard from the start.The Spurs are prepared for the Lakers' style of play, why aren't the Lakers?I want to hit Parker, I want to cover the top arc, so as to avoid the defensive energy of the Lakers' No. 1 position, but... the Lakers seem to have been prepared, and quickly made a forced squeeze.

That's right, Rondo squeezed through the pick-and-roll and then defended Parker.

This is also the problem of the Spurs themselves. If it is still the "GDP combination" or Duncan and Parker pick and roll, the effect may be completely different.Dewayne Dedmon's pick-and-roll quality was too low, so he was squeezed by Rondo deftly, and Parker returned without success several times.And at this time, the attack time is basically running out, so... it can only be a strong attack.

Parker was able to play hard before, and the playoffs were considered one of the arrows to break the game, but after all, he is still getting older. "French Sports Car" is already 35 years old this season, and it is impossible to have the breakthrough ability of that year.Now without the help of the pick-and-roll, it is impossible for him to easily break through Rondo, who is at the defensive level.Coupled with the lack of pick-and-roll quality, the Spurs played very difficult these few goals.

Instead, the Lakers played several defensive counterattacks.

Of course, Popovich changed his lineup very quickly. He chose Parker's top-arc pick-and-roll as bait to attract the defense, and then directly handed it over to the low-post 4th Aldridge for singles.Aldridge is in his favorite power forward position because of the 213CM Dewayne Dedmon. It is not particularly difficult for him to single Randall.After all, he is still a veteran insider star with a very versatile scoring method. Randall is still not enough to defend him alone.

But the Lakers made a great defensive setup for this ball, which is based on Aldridge's scoring methods this season.This season, Aldridge cuts in without the ball and scores a lot, so in order to maximize Randall's defensive effect.Larry Brown actually asked Randall to ignore the rest, just to follow Aldridge tightly, making his off-the-ball cut basically invalid in this game.

Randall still has an obvious physical advantage in the 4th position, and he has enough energy, so for a while, Aldridge seems to only have a singles mode left to attack.And Randall's defensive progress has been much better than that of the original time and space. He has been growing up under Larry Brown's rule. Defense is a compulsory subject, and then... Aldridge's scoring tonight is not particularly small, but it is not too much.

Not good.In the first quarter, he made 7 of 3 shots, added 2 free throws, and scored 8 points. This score is obviously not enough for the Spurs.

Popovich wanted Leonard to perform as well, but Butler was energetic as soon as he defended Leonard, and the effect was not good enough.

Here I want to talk about why Leonard and Aldridge can play singles, but it always feels not enough.Let the Spurs fans feel uneasy.Isn't it because the Lakers' offensive firepower is better than theirs.Therefore, it is naturally not enough.Scoring efficiency must be improved.How to improve scoring efficiency?Popovich set up a play, trying to use the wing screen to help Leonard score more efficiently.

The Lakers' single defensive point is too good, and Butler is the defensive line at the 3rd position. Butler seems to have a lot of resentment for not being selected as an All-Star recently, so everyone on the defense feels like a "hungry tiger rushing to eat".In the Lakers, he doesn't need to bear such a heavy scoring firepower, and now he has switched to an efficient shooting route, so he naturally has more energy to invest on the defensive end.

After all, not everyone is like Choko. His offense is invincible and his defense is still high-intensity. This kind of person is too rare. You don’t need to mention Butler. Many so-called defensive masters, once the score goes up, the defense will not work. .Butler basically averaged more than 20+ points per game, which basically affected his defense.This was especially evident when Tang Qian was absent.

The original space-time also has similar season examples.

But now that Tang Qian is restraining the inside line, his offensive pressure is much less, and the defense can rest assured.

But this routine was guessed by the Lakers. The Lakers made a fake switch trap, which seemed to allow Leonard to succeed in the pick-and-roll and pass, but as long as Leonard made a mid-range shot, he would be immediately disturbed.Because of this place, Larry Brown asked Butler not to take the kind of tough way to squeeze through the wall, but to use... to go around directly.

In this place, Larry Brown used a set of "defensive cover" strategies. In order to strengthen Butler's bypass effect and reduce the bypass time, he asked Randall to come over to "counter-screen", that is, he directly blocked the opponent The screener allows Butler to go around quickly and without interference.This trick actually didn't make much sense in the past, but in modern times... it has great meaning.

How should I put it, because the previous pick-and-roll movement screen was very strict, basically if you move a little like this, it is an illegal screen.But since the rise of the Warriors in the 14-15 season, mobile cover has become something that "cannot be banned" in the league.Because this season, it's not just the Warriors who are using it. Which team in the league doesn't do it?Even the Lakers can't be exempt.Otherwise, everyone is moving the pick-and-roll, and you still stick to the rules, wouldn't that be too much of a disadvantage?

So to deal with mobile screens, the value of this "counter-screen" comes out, allowing players to no longer have to worry about being blocked by the opponent's "mobile screen" when bypassing.It is equivalent to changing the direction to make the "mobile cover" become the original "fixed cover".Break it back.This set was first developed by the Lakers, and Larry Brown added it to the pre-game training camp, mainly to deal with this move of the Warriors.Otherwise, it would be too bad.

At least in this way, there can be an additional resolution move.

It was just used on the Spurs tonight. The Spurs' pick-and-roll was too bad. It was easily countered by Randall, which gave Butler a chance to go directly.Butler also believed in Randall, so the ball basically bypassed at full speed.Then reach out directly to interfere with the opponent's shot.

Leonard's first ball was almost capped because he didn't expect Butler to come out so quickly, and the subsequent effect was not particularly good, but wasted offensive time and tactical energy.Especially with this kind of tactic that has no obvious effect, the players themselves will feel a little tired after playing too much.

Seeing that the effect was not good, Popovich could only give up.

On the defensive end, because I was afraid that the Lakers would shoot from outside, the Spurs were directly killed by the Lakers in this way last time, so I paid extra attention.After adopting the defensive focus on the low position of the virtual perimeter, focus on the interception and interference of the ball on the 29th.According to the playing habits of No. 29, the effect of doing so in the first three quarters should be good.Let's hold on to the front first.

Popovich thought so.

Otherwise, it will be spent in the front, and it will be a fart.

It seems to make sense, but who would have thought that on the 29th tonight, the Lakers... After playing one, they played the second, and after the second, they started to play the third.At this point, the Spurs players were a little overwhelmed, and they all looked at Popovich, wanting to know what to do next.Popovich insisted on continuing this place, and he didn't believe that the 29th would continue to do so.

As a result... the 29th has been doing it like this.

Still fight, keep fighting, keep fighting.

Dewayne Deavis is going to be beaten until he vomits blood, okay? He is only 245 pounds. How can he defend against Tang Qian who is already 325+ pounds?If it weren't for Tang Qian's average free throw tonight, the Spurs would be pulled away here.Could it be...he saw through my arrangement? ? ?Knowing that our low-post encirclement is all false, the original intention is to cut off the conduction ball from inside and outside?

No way?Is his golf quotient also so high? ? ?

But seeing the opponent playing so resolutely, Popovich couldn't help but believe it. He called a timeout, which could only be an adjustment.

But where did Tang Qian see it, where did he guess it in advance, he is not a god, nor is it Zhuge Kongming, there is no one who can pinpoint this.The real answer to why he made Popovich's setup so messy is...he didn't even think about how to pass the ball tonight.

I just want to play by myself, and I only have the basket in my eyes, so I made a mistake, which made the Spurs' pre-match arrangement completely wrong.

Popovich made the same mistake as Nuggets coach Mike Malone, but the former came to the conclusion after calculating the probability, and Mike Malone was a blind gamble.The result is the same, but the level of tactics is completely different.

I can only blame Tang Qian for not passing the ball tonight.

After the timeout, there was an adjustment, and the big man and the low post were adopted to rotate. In fact, it was to let the team strengthen the real defense of the low post.This trick is obviously used to deal with the Lakers' non-stop scoring at No. 29.Of course, there will be defensive loopholes, because basketball is a balanced game. If you focus on defending a certain point or area, the defense of other points or areas will be relatively weakened.How to deploy is actually one of the charms of professional basketball.

But Popovich believes that under normal circumstances, the opponent will find the problem after playing at most one, and then choose to change the offensive strategy.This is basically a kind of inertial thinking in the NBA.Even those players with high golf quotients will immediately stop continuing their personal offense as soon as they see this change, and adopt another offensive mode to run the team.

But tonight... don't care if Tang Qian saw it through or didn't think about it at all, anyway...

keep playing.keep killing.Just keep going.

This made the Spurs a little stunned, no, we have strengthened the inside defense, you still want to play?You didn't mean it, did you?Just trying to put on a show, draw the defense, and pass the ball?But after one ball, two balls and three balls, the defensive players on the Spurs side finally understood that this guy is No. 29, he is really...he must continue to play.

He was real, he didn't want to pass the ball out.

This is really too much!We don't believe that the two of us can't stop you! ! !

Aldridge + Dewayne Dedmon of the Spurs thought so, and even thought about it and just made a defensive foul. Anyway, he can't play 2+1.The idea is really good, and then... just halftime, both of them, five fouls.

These are the two main insiders of the Spurs, so they all committed five fouls? ? ?What kind of plane are you doing?

Alder and Dewayne Dedmon themselves are also very confused, what's wrong with us, why did we foul five times so quickly?

Isn't he touching porcelain?Of course not, this is the real lethality. Tang Qian wants to attack now, unless you also put on a heavy center forward, and then come the rest, otherwise, it will basically be crushed by tonnage, and the lethality is amazing.

Why in the early 21st century, after O'Neal became successful, did the teams that wanted to win the championship have to hoard muscle sticks?Let the value of muscle sticks in that era soar.It doesn't matter if you don't have any technology.Isn't it just to limit Ao Pang a little bit?There are space insiders everywhere now, and Adelaide is only 260 pounds.It is 60~70 pounds short of Tang Qian, and there is already a gap in strength.

Both of them were rootless duckweeds, and they were pushed away at once, allowing No. 29 to find an opportunity and a gap.

If you don't, it's a foul.

And what Popovich and the Spurs fans didn't expect the most is that this No. 29, he really doesn't pass the ball.

Never passed the ball.

Isn't he a team player?What are you crazy about.
