I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 312 Betrayed Again (Fourth Change)

Min Congda has always had a keen sense of the field.

In previous games, he could often sense changes in the field situation through one or two balls.

For example, seeing Curry's offensive choice in the game, he can perceive the recovery of Curry's state and the posture of his continuous attack.

In this game, after seeing Baron Davis forcefully eat Dooling at the beginning of the game, the sirens in this brain nerve sounded again.

Because after Baron Davis came to the Clippers, he seldom used his signature back-up to force him, but instead attacked more from the top of the arc.

Affected by injuries, Davis' physical fitness was not as good as before. In order to relieve the pressure on his knees, Davis chose to lose weight.

For players who are good at backs, once they lose weight, the power of backs is very obvious.

The first requirement for back-up is to be able to rely on the defender. If your center of gravity is easily disturbed by the opponent, back-up is very difficult.

Therefore, once a back-handed player loses weight and cannot rely on defenders, half of his back-up ability will be abolished.

Coupled with the team's tactical choice, low post-up efficiency and other factors, the option of post-up and single-playing may disappear in his arsenal.

This is the case with Baron Davis. He was at his peak when he was in the Warriors. He was heavy and strong. Few of the point guards could compete with him.

In addition, the Warriors are taking a completely small ball route, one big and four small, and the big one is a defensive insider who has no independent offensive ability at all.

Therefore, the Warriors have enough space inside for Baron Davis to attack the opponent with a low back, and use it as a tactical axis to drive the team's offense.

In addition to the reasons for the decline of the Clippers, the Clippers have two heroes inside, and the low position is occupied by Randolph.

Baron Davis' main offensive methods are breakthroughs, mid-range shots at the top of the arc and some fixed-point three-pointers.

The low post is just an occasional trick, and it is no longer the Clippers' main offensive tactic.

As a result, as soon as the game came up, Baron Davis took Dooling in a low position.

In the eyes of the fans, an unremarkable low-post tactic was launched, but it attracted Min Congda's attention.

He realized that there must have been some changes on the offensive end of the Clippers that he didn't know about.

It's the Bucks' turn to attack.

In the absence of Jennings for the Bucks, the burden of offensive initiation was handed over to Corey Maggette.

Bogut has lost his power in the low post and has become a pure pie eater and defensive gate.

The Bucks' offense relies on the tactical strategy of a large number of screens and internal breakthroughs.

Their fourth position Ilyasova has a good mid-range and long-range jumper ability.

However, this ability is mainly limited to the mid-range jumper, and his three-pointer has not yet been developed.

In addition to Ilyasova, there is also Delfino, who is also a tall striker who is good at long-range shots and good at running.

But at the beginning, the Bucks ran a few laps, didn't get a single chance, and were terribly defended by the Clippers.

The two pick-and-rolls failed, and in the end they could only give the ball to Corey Maggette, allowing Maggette to score the first point with George alone.

The Clippers' second attack was still a combination of high and low positions. Baron Davis received the ball in a low position and gave it to Randolph who made an air cut to the basket.

Randolph catches the ball and drives away Ilyasova, making an easy layup with his left hand.

"Fuck? Randolph cuts to the basket? What kind of routine is this? I've never seen this before."

Min Congda was taken aback again. He didn't watch the game properly for half a month. Has the Clippers' offense changed so much?
Unscientific, totally unscientific, must be a coincidence, just a coincidence.

"You can't make a conclusion just because of one or two offenses. Don't panic, don't panic. It's just two simple offenses. A weak team like the Bucks can still see it with Jennings. Without Jennings, this offense is not enough. Can you see it? The defense is even more blind..."

Just as Min Congda was thinking, with the Bucks' high pick-and-roll cooperation, Du Lin was flanked by a double Davis.

Du Lin missed the ball, Paul George succeeded in stealing, dribbled the ball and counterattacked quickly, and a chic man passed the ball past Delfino who was chasing him.

Flying to the basket with the ball, leaping into the air, gliding and dunking with one hand!

"Beautiful!" Min Congda couldn't help applauding the ball.

Young people are young after all, this dunk, this gliding distance.

Seeing that you are usually sleepy, why are you so active in dunking?
Applause is all applause, the fewer such beautiful goals, the better.

There were cheers at the Staples Center. Not long after the opening, the venue was already full.

Min Congda turned his head to look, and found that the attendance rate tonight was very good.

So I asked Ada, "Ada, what is the attendance rate tonight?"

"It's a full house tonight."

"What? Why is it full? The price of the ticket is discounted? Didn't you say that you are not allowed to lower the price?"

"No...the last few games are sold out, and loose tickets are selling well."

Min Congda was shocked again, are the Los Angeles fans hungry?

The Clippers' game against the Bucks is full of people watching, so there's no other entertainment at night?
"Because today is Curry's comeback battle, there are a lot of fans who bought tickets."

When Ada said this, Min Congda suddenly realized that it was the little guy Curry who did it.

Fortunately, Min Congda set a 10-minute limit for Curry in this game.

And in these 10 minutes, many fans will come to watch his comeback.

It is enough to show how popular Curry is in Los Angeles.

How impressed fans were last season.

Of course, limited to the Los Angeles area, this comeback did not get the opportunity to broadcast live across the United States.

After George succeeded in stealing and dunking, the Clippers then defended against a 24-second offensive violation by the Bucks.

Min Congda watched the Clippers use this defensive strategy, especially the pick-and-roll and screen protection, and the details are quite good.

Focusing on sinking, Gasol and Randolph will defend the basket as soon as possible, not giving the Bucks a chance to cut in.

At the same time, the defensive players follow up well. Paul George and Ricky Davis hid the slow-legged Baron Davis very well.

For example, if Durin wants to play a pick-and-roll with Ilyasova, Paul George will take the initiative to post it, and even if he puts Delfino a little bit, he must help defend Durin.

If the ball is passed to Delfino, the young George will not hesitate to move laterally and find Delfino's personal defense again.

The outside line of the Clippers is mainly close-fitting, you can rush if you want, anyway, the two big men in me can't lose their positions.

In addition to Shen Tui, he occasionally double-teams.

Randolph, who had been poor in defense before, was still weak and delayed.

Every time the opponent picks and rolls, he will habitually reach out to catch the opponent's ball holder.

This seems to be a simple catch, but it can effectively slow down the opponent and allow teammates to occupy a more favorable defensive position.

These small details of defensive habits may seem insignificant, but they form the basis of a team's good defense.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Clippers beat the Bucks by a 14:2 point difference and stopped the Bucks.

Compared with the Clippers' slightly abnormal offense, Min Congda is more impressed by the Clippers' current defense.

"Our team's defense is good, who made these defensive strategies?"

"Mr. Smart, it's you."

"Ah... yes, it's me, it's the article I wrote... Damn, why did I betray again."

Min Congda muttered softly, and heaved a heavy sigh in his heart.
