Chapter 1598 Have you thought of everything you can think of?

Today's game is a life-and-death battle for the Lakers, 1-3 behind, not to say that there is no record of comeback in history, there are still, and there are more than one.However, you also have to see if you have found a solution to the problem.The Lakers, obviously, have not yet found a solution to the problem.So the entire locker room, although it is the home court, the atmosphere is not particularly high.Being blown up in the last game did indeed shatter their confidence on the defensive end.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to lose so many points.

This is the performance of defensive confidence and winning confidence being blown up by the opponent.

Everyone is a professional player. Although the coaching staff still said inspiring words on it, is there any hope? Are you not stupid?Of those teams that were able to come back, which one didn't find a way before they could successfully counterattack?So before you find a way, that's how much "chicken blood" you said.It doesn't have much effect at all.

Larry Brown was getting a little haggard in anxiety. He had been studying the video carefully these few days, trying to find a way.

But what he said didn't sound like a miraculous effect.

But we still have to play. On May 5, US time, the Lakers returned to their home court to play against the Golden State Warriors.Staples Center is still overcrowded, never have to worry about attendance.But as soon as it came out, everyone could clearly feel the difference in momentum between the two sides.The Warriors are full of momentum, while the Lakers are a little bit overwhelmed.

The starting lineups of the two sides have not changed much. The Lakers are still Tang Qian + Randall + Ariza + Butler + Rondo, and the opposite is the three Tsunami brothers + "chasing eggs" Green + Zaza Pachulia.Because this ball is very critical, the Lakers want to create an advantage as much as possible at the beginning in order to improve the morale of the team.But the facts have proved that the more you want to do it, sometimes the more counterproductive it is. The Lakers didn't feel good at the start, and the iron was bang.

This also made Larry Brown anxious. He immediately changed into an unlimited defensive lineup to deal with the Warriors' pull, but Durant took the shot. If he didn't play tactics with your Lakers or pass and cut as a whole, he would just do it alone.From the very beginning, Durant started to go it alone in a row, which made the Lakers put on an infinite defensive lineup, which was a bit weak and helpless.

This ball is to say that Cole calculated Larry Brown's plan at the beginning, and then Matt Barnes, who was replaced, just feinted.Because he can shoot three-pointers and come up to open up, he also looks like a "five small lineup".It's just not as good as the effect of Iguodala's coming up.But... this is all a joke, because in fact, he didn't intend to do this at all, but to pull away and give Durant a single.

Durant completed the task very well. This year, his ambition and efficiency are also at the level of the sky. He finally got a liberated super scorer with amazing destructive power.Because in terms of scoring stability and unsolvability, Durant has reached the top level in history.So one-on-one, he really doesn't fear anyone.With Jordan in front of him, he can only fight head-on.

This is his natural dislocation advantage, which is inherent, and it is useless for you to envy him.

He doesn't even need to lean back to create space, because he himself...is the space.

Durant was fierce in the first wave, scoring consecutively, 4 of 3 shots, and 2 free throws, scoring a total of 9 points!Ariza really tried his best to defend, but it was still a bit worse.One-on-one, his defensive energy is not enough, far from enough.Durant's offense ignited all of a sudden.The Lakers played too anxiously again, and were poured in a 13-2 at the beginning.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Tang Qian didn't hesitate this time, and immediately stood up in a wave of continuous personal attacks, his low-level killer attributes were undoubtedly revealed.Seeing this, Howard really has mixed feelings in his heart. He has pursued this realm all his life, but now he has ruined himself and turned himself into a laughing stock.And him?How about Dongfang 29?He has already reached the level and realm that he dreamed of.

It seems that he and I are really not the same level of players.

If I don't want to admit it, I have to admit it. If I were in the same era as him, I would only compete for the second team, first team?There is only one center spot, so I don't have to think about it.He is now...too domineering.

Yes, it is very domineering. Tang Qian's low-level killer spirit cut the inside of the Warriors, stumbling around, and Green almost cried.Because the Warriors quickly set up a small-ball lineup tonight, without a center and a meat shield, he can't do without the 5th position.And if you come up to the fifth position, you have to accept a one-on-one with the Lakers' No. 29.

A Tang Qian crushed Green and retreated step by step, turned around and attacked hard at the basket, Green still stretched out his hand unwillingly, and then there was a "crack~beep~swipe~". AND. ONE! 2+1!Tang Qian's scoring helped the Lakers hold on a bit, but it wasn't enough, because an outside line on the opposite side suddenly put pressure, high pressure, and then... Ariza made a mistake.After the opponent passed by, it was a typical warrior's style of play, chasing a three-pointer!

brush~
After putting it in, Green said loudly: Hey~ Did you see it?This is our strength~ You are too good~ You can’t do it~
This big mouth is indeed very accurate in this year's playoffs. Compared with the regular season, the three-point shooting rate has increased a lot in one breath.Only 30% shooting in the regular season.Originally, I wanted to let it go a little bit tactically, but someone told you why this year's Universe Yong is so invincible!You let him go?It's a pity that Green's three-pointer this year is really ready for the playoffs!This is also an average of nearly 5 three-point shots per game, and the shooting percentage broke through 4% in one breath! ! !
This is also the most accurate time since his career.

The only time in the playoffs broke 4% of the three-pointers!Just like last year's Josh Smith, one of the peak personal long-range shots!So the Lakers let go of him a little bit tactically and were punished a lot!He scored another three-pointer, and this time it was obvious that the Lakers let him shoot in order to double-team Curry.This time, he has lived up to his spirits, so the morale of the Warriors team has risen again and continued to burn!

Green also yelled loudly after scoring the goal: Come on, keep letting me go, and see if I don't shoot you idiots to death! ! !

The Lakers fell into a passive position, but they were still making adjustments, and immediately made a high-position scattered defense, falsely pinched Curry, and then interfered with the opponent's conduction route.To switch defenses directly throughout the whole process requires speed. Even if you are switched to an unfavorable misplaced position, you must first let the opponent have a defense in front of you.Because once the Warriors fight, it will be terrible, and you can't suppress them at all.

The Warriors came in with the ball, and Tang Qian saw it. He forced his way through, jumped up in one step, and blocked the ball from a very long distance.The ball belonged to Curry, and then the ball was taken by Green first. Green played his scheduling and ball distribution ability, and directly directed a tactical attack at the horn position. After Thompson slid the baseline and opened it, Durant followed up. .

Thompson basically pulled the ball away, and Durant came in with a one-handed snap!

But what people didn't expect was that No. 29 of the Lakers rushed back from the other side, and then rushed over with the momentum of an iron horse Hengjiang, and slapped Durant's dunk.Then the body directly hit the somewhat "skinny" Kevin Durant.There is nothing wrong with saying that he is the god of death, because in European and American culture, the god of death is a very thin sickle.Durant fits exactly that trait.

The Warriors' bench was shouting fouls for this ball. Yes, there are suspicions, but there is still priority immunity for wonderful moves.This is especially true for blocked shots. Sometimes it is a diametrically opposed judgment method whether it is blocked or not.Tang Qian has already figured out this rule, so even if the ball couldn't stop the car and hit Durant, he didn't hesitate.

With this big hat, Durant was knocked into the front row of the audience, and the Lakers immediately played a wave of 5 on 4.Rondo quickly advanced, and finally Butler made a layup.The defensive counterattack is done!

That's not to mention, on the next ball, Tang Qian made another rocket volleyball cap, which strongly slapped the opponent's near-basket shot.The Lakers had another chance. Covington hit the basket directly and was violated. He made 2 free throws from the free throw line.

The morale of the Lakers was actually highlighted by Tang Qian's continuous blocks, and he showed a boost.

Everyone was infected, and with consecutive goals, the defense began to function normally.

The Warriors' offense has also been greatly affected. After all, as long as the Lakers don't have an unstable mentality, their defense is still terrible.Coupled with the unlimited defensive lineup, the Warriors' passing and cutting are not so easy.So after a few fruitless attacks, the opponent immediately... used Durant to save the field.

It's not that Curry can't do it, Curry is also a super scorer and a master of ball handling, but in terms of stability and the characteristics of ignoring defense, it is still "Reaper" Durant Du Qichi who needs to be safe.Even with these super shooters to open up space, Durant's personal attack efficiency is more efficient than the so-called efficient tag James.Even if you look at the results of the finals, Durant, James is overwhelmed.It is directly the pinnacle position in history!James is very versatile, but compared to attack efficiency, he is still far behind Durant.Do not believe?It doesn't matter, the original space-time data is here, the game value is second in history, the history of outside line is the first, and it almost surpasses the history of inside line.The finals averaged 35+8+5+1+2 per game, and the shooting percentage was 55+47+92. Combined, the overall shooting percentage of the finals was 195.7%!What is this concept?It is simply the king of the first efficiency in history!And only he and Jordan have averaged 35 points per game and shot more than 55% while still being outside.He is even better than Jordan in total efficiency.

Of course, this is a huge benefit given to him by the Warriors' system, the offensive space that historical-level heads-up players dream of.

So you have to compete with this year's Durant, James on the outside can't help it, it's too ruthless.

In the Western Conference Finals this year, he also shot over 60%!This is still an outside line!There are not many insiders who can compete with him, okay?So as soon as the opponent saw that the offense was controlled by the Lakers, they immediately went to Du Qichi for a single.This is really shameless, this year's Durant is absolutely worthy of the title of "Reaper".Ariza was shot again and again!

Seeing that the Warriors resumed their offense so quickly, without being affected by the suppression of the system operation at all, the Lakers also directly made a strange move.This has been used against Durant of the Thunder before, and it still works.That is Tang Qian, go directly to Durant!In this way, the height, arm length, athletic ability, etc., can completely keep up!But there are a few issues to consider. The current Durant is no longer the Durant of the Thunder. His confidence in the playoffs is at the top level in history this year, so he is not afraid at all. Touching Tang Qian, he is still pulling hard!

It may be that his shooting percentage will drop, but that is compared to his shooting percentage of 60%~70% in this round of the series.dropped to around 50%.A drop of more than ten percentage points, this is definitely a miraculous effect.But, is that enough?Not enough, still not enough, because 5% is still too high!But who told him that his shooting percentage was too high from the starting point? It has dropped so much, and the general outside line can be regarded as a dog, but he is still so high!This is a bit of cheating!Secondly, the Warriors are not the Thunder that rely solely on individual talents to play. The least things in the Thunder are actually the best things in the Warriors.That is the strength of the team's operation, which is many levels higher than the Thunder.

Cole trained so much in the regular season, do you think it was a joke?In the playoffs, the Warriors can always be methodical and find surprise players. This is the result of a lot of training in the regular season.Otherwise, do you really think that Cole can turn a stone into gold without any process at all?

So... Tang Qian went out to defend Durant completely, so good, let's attack your basket directly.For any team with a big center, if the center is no longer in it, the strength of protecting the basket inside will plummet.This has nothing to do with your defensive system. Look at the Warriors. Isn't it the "Five of Death" who are invincible in attacking and invincible in defense on the outside, but because they don't have a big center inside, they are often blown up by the basket.

Therefore, Tang Qian came out to mark Durant, which means that there is no chance of returning to his position. Durant is not Green. His offensive firepower is too strong, especially after the Warriors are completely liberated.In addition, you think that everything will be fine?Come on, the current league is not what it used to be. In the past, pop superstars didn't pick and roll and went one-on-one. Now it's all pick and roll, and then use the dislocation to attack.In the past, if you did this, you might be called "not a man", but now, it is obvious that you are a "fool" if you don't do this.So, you Tang Qian marked our Durant, right, okay, let's go straight to Dooku's pick and roll!what are you doingCan you still switch defenses successfully?Do you think the energy of our Warriors' offensive system is that of the Thunder?Besides, even if you succeed in switching defenses, we will have the consequences of Durant hitting anyone other than the C position and Curry punishing Tang Qian for a small attack.

Tang Qian can mark the striker, but it is really too much for such a small man to defend Curry, who is the top player in the history of small hits and big punishments.The adjustment of lateral movement and center of gravity are not at the same level.No matter how good Tang Qian's physical fitness is, no matter how flexible he is, and no matter how fast he accelerates in a straight line, he can't change this aspect.To put it bluntly, wouldn't even Altman be able to solve this problem.Which Ultraman is particularly flexible?
Therefore, even if this trick is used, it must be used against a team like the Thunder that does not have a high team system bonus, or at the last moment, a few one-on-one defenses suddenly come, and Durant insists on Do this when playing one-on-one directly.Only then will it be effective.Otherwise, if I joined so early, I would look down on the progress of the Warriors and modern basketball.

Therefore, in the first quarter, the Lakers were still overwhelmed by the opponent. The opponent scored 33 points, and the Lakers only scored 23 points.Butler meant that this game was basically abolished, and the opponent was too cunning. Cole directly arranged for Thompson and Iguodala to take turns to take care of your only core strength of outside ball holding.Butler was defended by these two defensive masters, and his shooting percentage couldn't be improved.In addition, his mentality is not very good this year. Except for the first round, he was completely blown out by Harden in the second round, and now he is being taken care of by the Warriors' defensive champions in the Western Conference finals. It is no wonder that he is so efficient.After all, he is just an All-Star scorer in his early 20s, not particularly capable of scoring explosiveness and attacking tough situations.

Moreover, Iguodala and Thompson are both defensive generals, and the defense in the playoffs was tough, especially Iguodala, which made Butler feel uncomfortable after the start of the entire series.I don't know if Cole is treating him in the same way as he did?Last year and before, you stared at our Curry and took turns punishing him. Now it’s all right, we will directly come up and take turns taking care of your Butler, abolishing your only outside ball-holding strength.Hehe, Feng Shui also takes turns, right?

This year, the general trend is our warriors!
At this time, the Lakers actually used adjustments, knowing that defense alone could not suppress this team, so Larry Brown wanted to learn how other teams played against the Warriors before.Go attack Curry at this point.Grab their No. 1 position and play.It can also guarantee scoring and play a role in consuming Curry.The idea is good. Look at the Thunder, Cavaliers, and Rockets. They used to do this and beat the Warriors like this.But it's a pity... This trick doesn't apply to the current Los Angeles Lakers.

Because the Lakers don't have a No. [-] offensive point that can really be used to punish Curry strongly.

What's the meaning?That is, the Thunder have Westbrook, the Cavaliers have Irving, and the Rockets have Harden and Paul. These people are all guards.And beware, they are all short.Yes, if you want to play Curry, it really can't be too high, because Curry's delay and defensive enthusiasm have never been a problem.His defensive habits and abilities may not be a combination of offense and defense, but flexibility and delay, and the determination to let his teammates come over to help defend, are still enough.Butler is still too tall. He personally hit Curry, who is in his early 1.9 meters, and couldn't kill the latter before the rest of the Warriors came to help defend him.

In addition, Butler's mentality is not good now, so he can't take on this big responsibility at all now.

Don't mention the rest of the No. [-] position, Rondo?Beverly?Offensive singles Curry?what are you thinking.

So the Lakers can only use Lance Stephenson to attack Curry, and the effect is still there, but you can't do as much punishment as Westbrook, Irving, Paul, and Harden.To put it simply, if you play like this, the Warriors don't hurt too much, and Curry can bear it.Nonsense, do you really think Curry is a soft-legged shrimp?After all, he is also a super star, with his heart and aura, let alone the above few, they are indeed singles masters.But Lance Stephenson?Are you kidding me or are you kidding me?Curry gritted his teeth and wanted to push it down.

Not some super scorer!Do you really think that everyone can fight me?
Yes, Curry was kicked out because there are small scorers on the back lines of these teams in the playoffs.That's why there is an illusion that Curry can be caught and beaten.In fact, apart from these people, Curry didn't have too many times when his defense was really bad.At least you want him to be with Nashby, and that would be insulting him.Unfortunately, the Lakers don't have an offensive guard of this size.

So the routines that these teams can use, the Lakers can't follow suit.

Therefore, even if Lance Stephenson was used to play Curry, the effect was not particularly immediate. The score was so bad that in the second quarter, although Tang Qian stayed on the bench to lead the team, he forcibly narrowed down a wave.But after two of the opponent's three tsunami brothers came up, there was another wave of singles and three-pointers.

With about 4 minutes left in the second quarter, the score difference was once again widened to double digits by the opponent.

The Lakers' on-site cheering sound also weakened unconsciously.

All the solutions you can think of seem to be expected by Cole and the Warriors. Although it is the Western Conference Finals, everyone knows that this year's Western Conference Finals is the same as last year, which is the Finals.Whoever wins is the NBA champion of this year.

The question is, how to win?How to win? ? ?
Now it seems that there is no hope of breaking the situation at all.

Can try, have tried? ? ?
So to...
