Chapter 794 20 consecutive victories! ! ! (The third update is over~~~Xiao Zi asks for support~~~)

"The No. 24 of the Lakers feels too smooth tonight, don't fight him hard! Kawhi, you just need to do what you should do. Kobe this season was a little crazy. It's not your problem if you can't prevent it. Do your best Restrictions are fine." Leonard nodded, and Popovich continued: "Secondly, we can't be led by the nose. After Nash came back, the Lakers' offense has become clearly organized and integrated, but they have not always Weaknesses that were addressed. That was defense. Their defensive holes, they still exist."

This is the real Qiansheng coach, who will not be easily blinded by the general trend of the stadium, and can see and find problems in the face of adverse trends, and solve them.

Otherwise, do you think they won thousands of games by relying on their toes?
Although the Lakers currently have a slight advantage in the scene, Popovich is very clear-headed and quickly found a way to deal with it.

He took out the tactical board and began to tap with a tactical pen: "It goes without saying that the Lakers are the strongest on the defensive end. One is Kobe, and the other is Dongfang Hot. Basically, you want to play hard on these two points. It is extremely difficult. After Gasol returned, the 4th position has also been supplemented and strengthened. The Spaniard is definitely an excellent inside defender. Although he is not at the defensive level, he is far above the level of the same position. Players. As long as the three of them are on the court, these three points are very difficult for singles. But the Lakers are not invulnerable, and their problems are still not resolved."

"Whether it is Wesley Johnson or Nick Young in the future at position 3, they are all outside defenders below the average level. We can attack and break through more from this defensive point. But the first choice is still this." Popovich Qi circled a position on the tactical board with a tactical pen. That position is No. 1, which is... Steve Nash!

"Don't be surprised, and don't be intimidated by Nash's pass organization ability. Now his defense is not as good as before. Basically, the No. 1 position with a little bit of ability can easily break through and eat him raw. It just so happens that , our team's No. 1 position is a strong point with good scoring ability." Popovich looked up at Tony Parker and said, "How about it, Tony? Are you sure?"

Parker blinked and said with a smile: "I dare not say anything about Kobe, but this season's Steve, hehe, I will not show mercy." "Well, that's good." Popovich is also very Satisfied with this answer, Parker has become more sophisticated in the past few years, especially the improvement of mid-to-long-range shooting, which has greatly enhanced his aggressiveness and unpredictability.And Parker's defense is really, really underrated! ! !Even Tang Qian thought that Parker was at the upper-middle level on the defensive end and could not be called excellent at first.The fact is that Tony Parker's defensive efficiency in the 12-13 season ranked No.2 among point guards in the entire league! ! !right! ! !That's right, it's No.2! ! !

It's just that because he is too short, he is easily attacked by tall players, so everyone has an illusion.

In fact, Parker has always been a defensive champion among point guards!Although there are not many high-gloss lenses, he has a big advantage! ! !This may also be a player from the entire Spurs family, and they have a common defensive ability, that is, the defense almost rarely loses their positions! ! !What's the meaning?It means that you can rely on your personal ability to fight hard to get in, but it is very difficult to get rid of and tear the defense.

Data doesn't mean everything, but it ranks second in defensive efficiency in the entire point guard league. Do you think it's something ordinary people can do?

Being low-key is really a consistent tradition of the Spurs. You will be surprised only when you look at some of this player's statistics seriously.

If the offense wants to hit Nash hard, it is also easy and pleasant.

Although his scoring average is basically around 20 points per game, his scoring efficiency is terribly high.The overall career hit rate is 2 percentage points higher than Chris Paul!The hit rate this season is around 50%!How about Paul?Only about 46%!And as a No. 1 position, in a team like the Spurs, he can score about 20 points at the peak, which is already exaggerated!

Looking at the league, it may only be a quasi-first-class scorer level, but among point guards, it is a first-class level.

If you really want to let go and fight, Parker's destructive power is absolutely astonishing.

The Lakers' biggest bright spot tonight was, indeed, their biggest defensive weakness.

In fact, it is so cruel.

The 40-year-old Nash has a completely sloppy defense. Let alone Parker, any No. 1 player with scoring ability can "eat dumplings" on the head of the wind.This is really "eating dumplings". It has become obvious since last season. As long as the situation cannot be opened, the opponent team will go to the Lakers' No. 1 position to find a "blasting point".This is not to belittle Nash. Nash is actually very willing to defend. He is not the kind of player who has no defensive enthusiasm. It's just... It is true that he is not strong enough, and he is 40 years old!At this age, Qiao Shen's defense has begun to slag, let alone Steve Nash, who was originally defending ordinary?

So after the start of the fourth quarter, the Spurs gradually found a way to change the situation.

It's really just chasing Nash to play!In addition, Parker was originally a super scorer among point guards, so a wave of 10 points in a row turned the score over in an instant!Mike D'Antoni immediately called a timeout.

The first three quarters were okay, mainly because Nash's conduction and organizational skills needed to be used to improve the Lakers' overall scoring ability, so the problem of losing points was not too obvious.But the fourth quarter is different. This time is the decisive game, and every point is crucial. If Nash does this "cash machine", it will damage the morale of the Lakers team.

So what to do?What to do!D'Antoni is still very decisive!After communicating with Nash for a while, he was replaced, and then Jordan Farmar was not on the 1st position, but the stronger, younger and more energetic Kendall Marshall was on the field to replace him.Of course, Marshall can't defend Parker, but after all, he has a body, at least he won't be wiped out with one step like Nash, and the exhaust can't be seen.

This is actually the so-called "40-year-old laugh at a hundred steps" feeling, but it's just that the [-]-year-old Nash's defense is too bad, so Kendall Marshall seems to be a little stronger.In fact, this guy is also a famous "defensive colander". If the Lakers were not controlled by Nash, he would be the worst defensive player in the entire Lakers team.

Now the Lakers still have several important role players during the injury period, otherwise D'Antoni would not have used Kendall Marshall in the crucial fourth quarter.This is just a helpless move for the dwarf to pull out the general.

On the field mission, D'Antoni seemed to emphasize that he didn't need to do anything else, just defend Parker with all his strength, and that would be fine.As for ball control, organization, and connection, he doesn't need to worry too much.

Without Nash, the Lakers have once again become a relatively fragmented offensive entity, so the Spurs' team defense will be highlighted.Popovich thought so, but the development of the situation was not as he meant.Because after the loss of Nash, another person stood up.He is Kobe Bryant who has been playing without the ball and rested for a long time.

Unlike the previous more than 60 games, Kobe in this game seemed to be in a very good state, and he obviously still had a lot of energy to spare.This is the benefit brought by Nash's comeback. Kobe can still retain enough physical fitness to take over the game in the last quarter.

Seeing that the Lakers had finally returned to his "familiar" offensive mode, Kawhi Leonard was a little relieved, and then ran to No. 24, lowered his body, and defended with a strong individual.Compared with last year, Leonard's defense has made great progress. The original time and space began to step into the second defense, which is the best evidence.He has finally become a real defensive strongman, inside the perimeter, at least the top five.

He has also defended many high scorers this season, and there are many bright spots, which makes Leonard's self-confidence on the defensive end rapidly improve.

But he really chose the wrong person.

No. 24, who is in good physical condition, is unstoppable by anyone this season.

He must at least reach the level of DPOY in the future before he is qualified to challenge head-on, and now... doing so is courting death.

Looking for abuse.

Do you think that Kobe's singles shots of more than 55% so far, and his singles success rate of more than 5% are fake?

This is even more domineering than the 44.5% of his singles shots and over 4% of his singles successes in his peak period!
As far as this singles ability, this singles energy, Leonard is only 2 defenses now, the level is still a bit far behind.

Not the time for a challenge.

So let's enter Kobe's textbook singles time. On the 24th, he first broke through Leonard, and then stopped and shot.

In the next round, start to change direction, move laterally and lean back to shoot.

The wing is stuck and wants the ball, and the singles are played with a back and a backward shot.

Near the low position, he continued to turn his back, his body swayed, and his footsteps were exquisite, which swayed Leonard's shot.

Kobe made a total of 9 shots in the fourth quarter, hit 7 and missed 2.

Leonard's head was a little dazed at the back, and he was shaken by the No. 24 three-point line, and then posted it as a three-pointer.Swipe~, the referee blows the whistle, Kobe scores a goal, and another free throw is required! 10 out of 8 shots!During this period of time, the singles hit rate reached 80%!Obviously, Kobe, who is full of energy and energy, is in a very high state in this game. Nash has basically "fed" his shooting touch in the first three quarters.

At this point, Popovich knew that he underestimated the enemy tonight. With the return of Gasol and Nash, the Lakers team has undergone significant changes.It is no longer so mechanical, so simple offensive play.

This Lakers team...has the meaning of a real strong team!In the playoffs this season, it is estimated that it will cause a lot of trouble for the Spurs!Well, it seems that it is necessary to re-study the opponent. All the previous data analysis materials must be overthrown and re-made.

However, this does not mean that the Spurs are weaker than the Lakers. It's just that tonight, the Lakers "surprised" San Antonio a little unprepared and caught off guard.So many things were not brought into play, and they were completely suppressed and lost their momentum.

It is not impossible to continue to fight, but who is Popovich?Like the "Zen Master" back then, he is a person who extremely adheres to the coaching style of "regular season training, and the playoffs are the real battlefield".Otherwise, there are so many "various rests", ordinary famous coaches can't do it.

Therefore, there is no need to fight too hard, this is just a regular season after all.

It's not cost-effective to ask these "old men" to fight bloody battles.

The Spurs' ambitions this season, but the Larry O'Brien Cup and the playoffs are their stage.

Therefore, after a little weighing, Popovich gave up this game and did not let the GDP combination go up and play more.

Without the GDP combination, even if the Spurs are good overall, it will drop a big level, and it will be difficult to reverse the score gap.

Seeing that the general situation was settled and the opponent also chose to disarm, D'Antoni immediately replaced Kobe and Gasol, the two main players who had played for a long time, and chose to re-appoint Nash, who had rested for most of the quarter, to play and control.

Tang Qian was very lucky. In the second half of the quarter, he got a lot of passes from Nash, so it was a bit shameless to swipe up a handful of statistics during garbage time.In the end, he scored 19 points, 19 rebounds, 5 blocks and 2 assists, which is quite impressive!Kobe only scored 37 points!But look at his statistics and hit rate!The hit rate exceeded 7%! ! !It took only a relatively small number of shots to get this score!Kobe is in a good mood. Although the score is lower than 5+, this kind of model is obviously what he wants and what this Lakers team needs.

Gasol also scored 18 points!Steve Nash, the first comeback, 33 minutes, 11 assists, very exciting!

As for scoring, the Lakers don't lack for this now, and Nash's ability can also allow many players with poor ball-holding ability to unleash unexpected firepower!This wave has made the Lakers almost completely reborn from the front!

The audience was 119-105, the Lakers had a 14-point advantage, defeated the league's No. [-] Spurs, and continued their winning streak!
After the game, D'Antoni finally showed his spirits, because tonight's game was won by relying on his ideas and system!This made him extremely happy and said:
The biggest question for the Lakers now is probably how long Steve can last.As long as he is here, the Lakers will have a new look and will no longer be afraid of any team in the league!
We will continue to win! ! !
