Chapter 590 The Showdown of the Scoring Kings
After defeating the Timberwolves, the Sonics rushed to Denver to challenge the Nuggets, who have been in a downturn recently.Losing to the , Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs in a row, their position in the playoffs is already in jeopardy, and it seems to be lost.
Such a team is definitely not easy to play. For their playoff spots, they will definitely do their best to fight hard, especially Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony have the ability to reverse the game alone, and they will never be reconciled Didn't even make it to the playoffs.
In addition to player strength, George Karl is also a very capable head coach. He first coached the Cleveland Cavaliers and then the Golden State Warriors. In the 90s of last century, when he coached the Seattle SuperSonics, he created a super The Sonics are brilliant.
If it hadn't been for Michael Jordan who came back, Gary Payton might have won the first championship ring in his career, and he wouldn't retire with loneliness like he is now. In addition, he has also coached the Real Madrid team in Europe and the Dream Team.
Among the top coaches in winning percentage and winning games, he and Phil Jackson are the kind of coaches who are not too strict, and they don't like to use strict discipline to manage the team. The two have one thing in common, that is They were not considered successful as players, but their coaching and personal styles are very different. Although Phil Jackson is gentle, he does not mingle with the players, but keeps a vague distance. For players who dare to despise his authority , he will never be merciful.
On the other hand, George Karl is very close to the players. He is famous for being good at adjusting the relationship between players, especially when dealing with big-name players in his hands. He likes to let the players let them solve problems by themselves, combined with his offensive tactics Style, which can make the players play very happily, and the team can also maintain a certain record.
But this kind of team usually has problems with execution. If the players are allowed to make decisions, then the coach has to do something. He is only responsible for formulating tactics, but it is useless if the players do not follow the tactics. Emphasis on offense, so the teams he coaches usually do not have a good playoff record.
The most successful era is the time of the Seattle Supersonics. At that time, the Supersonics had both offense and defense, relying on the self-consciousness of "Glove" Gary Payton and "Rain Man" Kemp, especially Gary Payton, the quotation mark of "glove", the only one in history who became the best defensive player with a point guard, and even dared to challenge Michael Jordan.
The defense of the current Nuggets relies heavily on the player's self-consciousness. However, neither Allen Iverson nor Carmelo Anthony are the type who are willing to defend. In his team, find someone who is willing to defend. Players are really hard to find. If being obsessed with grabbing rebounds and blocking shots is considered defense, Camby should be counted as one.
Except for Camby, whether it is Kenyon Martin, the main player inside, or JR Smith, the defender on the bench, they are the kind of players who like scoring goals more than anything else, but speaking of it, the Sonics are not considered a defensive team. Good players, but one ranks in the middle of the league, and the other ranks at the bottom.
But the offensive firepower of the two teams ranks among the top five in the league. The Seattle SuperSonics ranks third in the league in points per game, second only to the Phoenix Suns and the Golden State Warriors. The Denver Nuggets rank fifth in the league. Ahead of them is the Dallas Mavericks.
When these two teams meet together, it will definitely be an offensive battle. This is what the two teams have already staged in the previous confrontation this season. In the last match between the two teams, it was also at the Pepsi Center In the arena, the two teams played a high-scoring game of 130 to 130, which also made the fans watching the game addicted to scoring goals.
Both sides attach great importance to this game. The Sonics have dropped to fourth place in the Western Conference. The Los Angeles Lakers have made rapid progress recently. Except for an unexpected loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on the road, they have won all other games. In terms of record, they surpassed the Sonics and tied the record of the Dallas Mavericks. Only because of the relationship between victory and defeat, they temporarily ranked third in the West.
If the playoffs start now, the fourth-ranked Supersonics in the Western Conference will face the fifth-ranked San Antonio Spurs. For the media, this kind of matchup is what they most want to see. For the fans, Such a matchup situation is also quite welcome, but for these two teams, such a matchup situation is the last thing to see.
Before the rise of the Sonics, some people called the Sonics the "Spurs". The shareholders and the general manager are the executives of the Spurs, the head coach is the first assistant coach of the Spurs, and the core players are the original main force of the Spurs.
Although the Spurs know everything about the Sonics, the Sonics also know everything about the Spurs. If the two teams meet, don't think about surprises or tricks to defeat the enemy, because it won't be of much use.
The Spurs are certainly afraid of the impact of the Sonics, but the Sonics are also afraid of the experienced Spurs with a balanced and reasonable style of play. other side.
The Spurs have experienced Stephen's unpredictability many times, but at that time Stephen was still on their side, and they were the beneficiaries. Now if they match up and Stephen explodes again, they will be the victims. The ability on both ends of offense and defense, as well as the grasp of the rhythm of the game, are not comparable to the current Sonics, so the Sonics also don't want to run into the Spurs.
But the reality is that the two teams are most likely to meet, because regardless of whether the Sonics' record has declined or the Spurs' record has improved, the two teams have just switched positions, and the situation of the matchup has not changed. I want to change this situation , Either a certain team goes up, or a certain team goes down.
But sometimes, the game is not for you to control at will. If you want to lose, it’s okay, but if you want to win, it’s not so easy. Fortunately, there is still a long time before the end of the regular season, and there are still enough opportunities to adjust. The Sonic team is playing the idea of going up. After all, if they are in the front, in addition to having home court advantage, the opponent is also weaker.
If you want to go up, you have to try to win all the games. The Sonics are not the Spurs. You don’t need to worry too much about the physical strength of the players. The main lineup is basically young players. Improve yourself, and you will have a good performance in the playoffs.
But the Nuggets want to keep their playoff spot. Now they are ranked eighth, but they are one game ahead of the ninth-ranked Utah Jazz. Seeing that hope is in sight, the Jazz are still desperately chasing forward, so for the Nuggets, they need to win every game to ensure that they will not fall out of the playoffs.
And in terms of game strategy, the two experienced head coaches of the two teams adopted an offensive-oriented style of play. The Nuggets were not good at defense and had no defensive habits, while the Sonics considered I realized that no matter how much defense is strengthened, it may not be able to prevent the Nuggets' offense. It is better to attack more. At least in terms of scoring average, the Sonics are higher than the Nuggets.
The two sides played very fiercely at the beginning of the game, and Denver's football market has always been very good. More than 2 fans crowded the Pepsi Center Arena, and ESPN also broadcast the game to the United States, and was responsible for the partner commentary. It's Bill Walton and Mark Jackson
The Nuggets won the jump ball, but failed to score on the first possession, then Wilcox grabbed the rebound and gave the ball to Stephen, who set up the offense, but Coupard's first An attempted shot also missed.
Then the two teams started to score consecutive goals, and the scores of the two sides rose rapidly. It was only halfway through the first quarter. Such a high score?Bill Walton said to Mark Jackson strangely: "Why do the Sonics score high every time they meet the Nuggets? If it's just because of defense, there are also teams with worse defense than the Nuggets. If it is Because if you encounter a scoring team, there are also such teams in the league, why can't they score such a high score?"
"So what do you think? That's the case?" Mark Jackson asked without answering.
"I think it's because these two teams are right on top of each other, they're pretty much the same offensively, so to beat each other, you have to attack as hard as you can, so both teams will score more and the other teams will Most teams can’t compete with the Sonics on offense or can’t maintain the confrontation throughout the game, so they can’t score such a high score.” Bill Walton said lightly.
In fact, the reason is very simple. Although the Toronto Raptors and Minnesota Timberwolves have very poor defense, the Sonics can win the game against them without any effort. Score more than 110 points.
Today's game looked like another high-scoring game, and the Nuggets raised their score to [-] with just one point left. Then Stephen also tied the Nuggets with a three-pointer.
"Iverson is the scoring champion for four times, and Carmelo Anthony almost won the scoring champion last season, and this season, Stephen has almost won most of the scoring crown on his head. So many scoring masters Appearing in a game, I think it is also the main reason for the high scores of the two teams." Mark Jackson said his answer beside him.
Such a team is definitely not easy to play. For their playoff spots, they will definitely do their best to fight hard, especially Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony have the ability to reverse the game alone, and they will never be reconciled Didn't even make it to the playoffs.
In addition to player strength, George Karl is also a very capable head coach. He first coached the Cleveland Cavaliers and then the Golden State Warriors. In the 90s of last century, when he coached the Seattle SuperSonics, he created a super The Sonics are brilliant.
