Countercurrent and become a superstar

Chapter 133 When the same offensive scene is played, each head coach sees a different scene!
“Back from timeout!
Parker controlled the ball to the frontcourt, was pressed by Nash, and made an outside screen with Ginobili on the outside.

Ginobili took a pass from Parker and faced Nash.

He rushed in, using a snake-like posture, and passed Nash as cleanly as he passed through the streets in the early morning.

He got to the end, he chased Nowitzki and made a European step layup.

The whistle sounded and the basketball was scored! !

Well done, Ginobili's shot was so awesome, it was 2+1! !
For Nowitzki, when he scored, there were also penalties..."

After the timeout, Ginobili's knife was unsheathed, giving Nash and Nowitzki a blow to the internal and external defense lines.

Swish-!
In spite of the boos, Ginobili showed no mercy on the free throw line, steadily made extra free throws, and successfully scored 3 points.

7 to 7! !
"It's either Nash or Nowitzki.

Now that these two people have been dealt with together, the Mavericks' defense is so miraculous..."

Even if you have Nash on the outside, you also have Dirk Nowitzki on the inside. What do you use to defend?

You can't prevent it.

Off the court, Nelson's face didn't look good.

He also knows that his team's defense is very flawed, but offense is the solution to everything. Just come back from offense.

However, the Mavericks wanted to play fast on the court, but were forced to play fast.

Parker and Bowen pushed Nash's ball out of the sideline.

The Mavericks still had the ball, but the rhythm of the game was dragged into a fragmented and intermittent positional battle.

The Mavericks players on the court can only play in an unsmooth rhythm. No matter how hot their shooting touch is, they will be exhausted in this stuck game environment.

Bang-dang——!
Nowitzki accepted the pass after the pick-and-roll, faced Parker's defense, and shot a two-point jumper. The opportunity came out, but the result was that it missed.

“The Mavericks offense isn’t hitting!!

This is how teams under Poe Povich understand the game of basketball.

Just a bad fight with you.

The Mavericks want to play a smooth offense, but they don't give you the offensive feeling.

This is the advantage of having two cards.

If the Mavericks only have one offensive card, the Spurs don't have to compete with you on the offensive card. They can only shut down the offensive card and use the defensive card to compare. The Mavericks' chance of losing the game will be Bigger…”

Especially in the era of "defense wins championships", the Mavericks' offensive level will only be pulled lower, and winning becomes a problem.

The rebound was easily picked off by Duncan.

Nowitzki was free to shoot from the outside, and Walker also pulled to the corner, making it impossible to fight for offensive rebounds.

“What’s next for the Spurs offense?

Should we continue to name Nash?
Or let Duncan play in the low post?

Parker controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and oh, he lobbed the ball to the left basket.

Duncan caught the ball and was immediately flanked by Finley and Nowitzki.

The basketball came out and found Bowen. He caught the ball and didn't shoot. He clicked and then dribbled the ball to the two-point area. He shot. Oh no, this is a mistake.

Bowen passed the ball to Parker who cut inside, received the ball, accelerated, passed Nash, picked up speed, and quickly rushed to the basket for a layup..."

Swish-!
Knife dropped, goal scored.

Parker received the ball from an air cut and continued to break through with the ball. Using fast and slow speed, he penetrated the Mavericks' defense and sent the basketball into the basket.

9 to 7! !
“This is a combination of internal and external tactics!!
The Spurs' offense took Nowitzki and Nash away again.

This time, it was not Ginobili's sharp sword that was used, but the teamwork of a three-man team, accumulating the offensive advantages gained from each position, and finally converging into one point, easily harvesting the Mavericks' defense... …”

On the commentary table, Barkley shook his head and sighed.

“The Mavericks’ defensive zone on the left side was completely dismembered!!
When the Spurs attack, they can pick things up and score points..."

Off the court, Bo Povich nodded and was not dissatisfied with the execution of the players on the court.

Not to mention defense, in terms of offense, the first choice is to attack your strongest point, rely on strength to break the game, and then focus on this cornerstone to slow down the attack.

The second level of selection is to attack the opponent's weaknesses by name, so as to break the surface and make the opponent focus on one thing and miss the other.

The third level of choice is to attack as a team, play "comprehensive basketball", rely on teamwork to move the ball to an open position, and then shoot a jump shot.

The fourth level is to connect the first three levels to form a combo.

The rest is a duel between stars with or without brains.

The so-called brain means picking and rolling and then one-on-one after mismatch...

“The Spurs’ offense is monotonous and simple, but fortunately it’s not messy.

It saves a lot of energy so you can focus on defense.

It can only be said that the Spurs are very efficient at both ends of the defense and at the other end of the court. !

Next, let’s see how the Mavericks respond offensively?

Another quick start from the baseline, Nash changed direction and passed Parker, and then passed the ball to Tan Yang.

Beautiful Tan Yang passed the ball to Finley again, and then..."

Nothing more.

Bowen used a foul to interrupt the Mavericks' offense again.

On the commentary table, Kenny Smith shook his head.

“A foul cost the opponent an offensive scoring opportunity.

The Spurs have a good idea! !

After all, the Mavericks are a well-known jump-shooting team in the league.

They like to shoot from the outside and have very limited damage to defensive players.

There is no point in keeping the foul count for the New Year, just to use it to destroy a good offensive opportunity for the Mavericks. This transaction has made the Spurs a huge profit..."

The rhythm of the game continues to be controlled by the Spurs. This style of cutting up the game time is a disaster for the offensive team.

The Mavericks, who were originally undefended, needed to improve the quality and quantity of their offensive firepower because they would lose a lot of points on defense. Now that the Spurs have lowered the quality of the Mavericks' offense, how can they guarantee the quantity?
No choice, taking advantage of the dead ball, Nelson could only call for a short timeout.

Now that Bo Povich has taken action, he can only find a way to deal with it.

On the bench, Nelson said to the players gathered in a circle.

"The Spurs are our old rivals. They like to make small moves. They just don't have the guts to fight with us offensively. They only like to use dirty tricks to interrupt the rhythm of the game and try to anger us so that we can't focus on offense so that they can teach us. The offense was completely lost.

Therefore, don't pay attention to their little moves next, focus on the offense, dare to take action, and play resolutely.

As long as we can get that damn basketball into the basket, we can thwart the Spurs' dirty tricks.

You are all professional basketball players, so you are no stranger to such tricks.

I believe you can do it. "

"As for defense!!"

Nelson thought for a moment, and after realizing that he couldn't guard against the Spurs' overall defense, he decided to start with part of it.

"Tin Yang, you and Steve switch defenses.

The Spurs have made so many moves. To put it bluntly, their offensive capabilities and star quality are not as good as ours.

They can only compete with our hard power through tactical strategies.

Their biggest offensive threat lies in the left offensive area where Duncan stays.

Our Mavericks team is not as strong as the Spurs in terms of overall defense, but they pile up all defensive resources and strength to the left area, suppressing their left offensive area or reducing their offensive efficiency.

I don’t believe they can kill us in the right offensive zone..."

After the timeout, the Mavericks attack.

“The Spurs are still in control of the positional battle and the rhythm of the game.

Next, let’s see what adjustments the Mavericks will make?

Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt and still asked for a cover tactic. Parker was blocked by Nowitzki, ugh, what the hell?

Nash shook off Parker, but he actually pulled it out. He raised his hand and tried to pull out a three-pointer. Is there such a thing as this ball..."

Bowen tried his best to switch defenses. His footsteps and speed were good, but it was a pity that Nash was too unreasonable and unethical. He was caught off guard and could only hear the gunshot.

Swish-!
The knife falls and the ball goes in.

“Nice job!!

It makes sense that Nash can continue to stay on the court after taking so many defensive hits.

His offensive talent is really overflowing.

Taking advantage of the shooting opportunity screened by Nowitzki, Nash played very strongly and took advantage of it..."

9 to 10! !
Outside the court, Nelson stood on the sidelines and celebrated with fists clenched.

Although Nash played this ball unreasonably, it was so morale-boosting.

This is how you have to fight!
Is it reasonable to talk about playing against the Spurs?

If you are reasonable in front of the Spurs, you will just be a younger brother, so it is also good to be unreasonable.

On the other side, Bo Povich shook his head and smiled bitterly, not panicking.

To put it bluntly, Nash is their sweet spot when they attack. Whenever he is on the court, he has never been a threat.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Spurs attack.

Parker controlled the ball to the frontcourt and was immediately guarded by Tan Yang.

"Oh, defensively, the Mavericks have changed their approach.

Tan Yang plays Parker, and Nash switches to guard Ginobili. Next, let's see what effect this fine-tuning will have?
Parker broke through with the ball and was forced to the right by Tan Yang. Then, Finley helped to defend and blocked Parker's right side.

As for the three-point shot, the Mavericks didn't seem to regard Parker's three-point shot as alive.

Oh, Parker rushed in, but jumped out again..."

Sharp breakthrough, accurate mid-range shot?

That is to say, there is no three-point threat, and the threat of breakthrough and mid-range shooting can be solved by flanking.

No way, not only Nash is restricted by HC rules, but attackers like Parker are also the same. Their breakthroughs can easily be controlled in the direction of offense when faced with capable defenses.

Not everyone has the abnormal talent of Iverson.

"Parker suddenly stopped, chose to quit, and then passed the ball to Duncan.

Finley quickly shrank back to defend, and even Walker, who was on the right side of the basket, also swept to the left side. Is this a pile of people on the left side, compressing the offensive space on the left side, and turning the left side into a strong defensive side?
Next, let’s see how the Spurs respond?

As expected, Duncan didn't shoot. One-on-three was not a good offensive choice. He continued to distribute the ball to find Bowen in the bottom corner..."

At this time, Qin Yang immediately cut off Bowen's pass to Parker, and Finley turned around and jumped out, but his defensive actions were useless. He chose to defend Bowen's breakthrough and pass to the inside. As for the three-point shot, just treat it as " "Let go".

It has to be said that Bowen is also a ruthless person. He was considered to be incapable of attacking, so he chose to pull out and hit a three-point jumper with his hand...

Bang-dang——!
Given the opportunity, Bowen averaged 6 points per game this season. His offensive firepower is worse than feeding a cat, and he obviously cannot kill the game.

"Bowen missed a three-pointer.

The Mavericks have a good defense on the left side.

Alas, the Spurs' offense wasn't over yet. Nesterovich on the right had the last laugh in the scramble for rebounds. He regained the basketball that Bowen missed.
After landing, he saw Ginobili cutting in and immediately passed the ball over.

After catching the ball, he immediately leaped high and rushed to the basket for a layup. Now..."

Swish-!
The knife falls and the ball goes in.

There is no shot that cannot be scored. If not, then try the second time.

With Ginobili's second offensive kick, the Spurs' offense continued.

On the commentary table, Barkley looked at it and shook his head.

“The Mavericks’ defense defended the left side, but the right side became a defensive vacuum.

This is called folding the east wall to make up for the west wall! !

It can’t be repaired, it can’t be repaired at all…”

11 to 10! !
Outside the court, Nelson looked calm and applauded the crowd.

no matter what the result is?

Their tactical intention was to succeed, and the next step was to let the bullets fly for a while longer.

If Bowen on the left and Ginobili and Nesterovich on the right, the offensive firepower of the three of them can kill the offensive firepower of the Mavericks, they will have to admit that the game is lost.

Anyway, Duncan and Parker must die.

Even if the Spurs could score, it was their Mavericks who let it go.

On the other side, Bo Povich had a strange expression on his face.

He was very happy with the situation on the court.

The Spurs were able to score because the Mavericks let it go?
As far as this offensive idea was concerned, he didn't care.

What he cares about is defense.

What he saw was that the Mavericks focused on defense, and the rhythm of the game was still on the Spurs' side.

The question is to fight defensively, the advantage will always be with the Spurs.

When the Mavericks decide to use defense to decide a game, they're doomed to fail.

In the same scene, every head coach sees a different scene.

What Nelson saw was the offense, limiting the Spurs' offense to the left side and letting their role players decide the game.

What Povich saw was defense.

The Mavericks, who are obsessed with offense, also need to focus on defense. Will the offense and defense not reach the shore?

On the court, the Mavericks attack.

Still fighting in position, Nash continued to be pressed, but he did not continue to fight hard.

After all, he has always been the first choice to pass the ball and use his own scoring firepower to kill the game. It is very likely that he has not thought about it, so he distributed the ball to Tan Yang on the right, and then, without thinking The ball is cut through the middle.

At this time, Walker on the right moved to the right corner, and Nowitzki on the left wing moved to the top arc.

“The Mavericks’ offensive formation is still very open.

See how Tan Yang organizes the offense?

Tan Yang was pressed tightly by Ginobili on the left side, and Nowitzki was pressed closely by Bowen. The Spurs, like the Mavericks, were also using defense to guide the Mavericks' offense.

In addition to blocking Nowitzki's attack on the left side, he also guarded the penalty area.

Tan Yang moved, he continued to dribble the ball to break through, he went in, he pulled out, and he raised his hand to shoot a two-point pull-up jumper..."

Ginobili slid quickly to pursue the defense, and Nesterovich was also very quick to sweep up and help defend. However, he did not expect that Tan Yang's shot timing was faster, and the defensive net inside and outside the Spurs had not tightened yet. Qin Yang used the mid-range to test their defense.

Swish-!
“Yes!!

Tan Yang's mid-range shot, finally, finally scored.

This is the offense that the Spurs fear most. Unreasonable mid-range shots can always defeat their guided defensive strategy.

In the final analysis, the Spurs just want to use guidance and defensive interference to reduce the opponent's shooting efficiency. This kind of defensive thinking is afraid that the opponent's mid-range will be unreasonable..."

Three-pointers are only auxiliary. In this era, I have never heard of relying on three-pointers to kill the series and win the championship, so you can let it go.

When breaking through and rushing to the basket, the outside line is desperately trying to defend, and the inside line is desperately sweeping and flanking. It is impossible, absolutely impossible, to get close to the basket to achieve offensive efficiency.

As for the mid-range shot, the Spurs' defensive players will basically not be out of position and will ensure that they block the offensive players and interfere. If you want to use elite-level mid-range to kill the game, it is not something ordinary stars can do.

Of course, using mid-range shots, after all, a one-on-one straight shot, Ginobili's single defense is not top-notch, and Qin Yang's attack on their life gate is still hard for them to guard against.

11 to 12! !
At the beginning of the first quarter, the two sides fought back and forth, very anxiously, and no one could do anything about the opponent for the time being.
