Section 36 Leonard vs incomplete solo (3)

"pause."

After catching the Spurs off guard, the 76ers began to develop their offensive tactics according to the tactics developed by Brown before the game:

For example

A handoff from the top of the key to Moore and a running three-pointer.

Let McConnell and Noelle do the interactive connection

Let Grant respond to the Spurs' targeted release with a corner three-pointer.

Let the inside who can't shoot respond to the Spurs' release by cutting inside.

But 4 minutes and 30 seconds later, the score was 2-17, which directly caused Brown to reject the offensive tactics he had arranged before the game.

Why?

It's too simple. If they continue to play according to their own tactics, the Spurs' main force will have to clock out in one quarter.

…………

…………

"Just get through it! Once this year is over and it doesn't get ruined, I can control the team's play style as I please." Although he lowers his head now, Coach Brown still wants to raise his head and raise his hands.

After all, he doesn't want to be said that he is hugging the superstar's lap.

"Although you didn't score a goal, you played very well. You played the tactics completely. This is what I want to see..." Brown's chicken soup made Yang frown wildly, but he looked at the expressions of his teammates.

, he still endured it.

"You'd better give the ball to Young and let him decide whether to attack or pass. You can't use rationality to solve the problem when playing against the Spurs." Faced with the superstar not playing Brown, D'Antoni, as the chief assistant coach, really

Somewhat anxious.

"Well, next, let's fight like this..."

"Although the Spurs are used to defending the sudden points of the outside ball holder, you can't not use your own weapons just because your opponent is good at it."

"And it's your only winning weapon."

"Brett Brown's offensive design was not good. After the timeout, he should have known that the team needed Young to take over. Without taking over, the value and significance of this game will be lost." The three-person commentary team on the sidelines also said

Talking about Brett Brown's question today.

Because Danny Green hit the ball past the sideline, the ball belongs to the 76ers.

Concerned about Leonard's long arms, McConnell did not give the ball directly to Noel.

Coach Brown's proficient handoff worked at this moment. He allowed Noel to pass the ball intact to Young's hands at the right waist.

"Open, open." Danny Green and Tim Duncan are both excellent help defenders. After receiving the ball, Young began to consider the danger they posed to him.

When everything was ready, facing Leonard with open arms and strong pressure,

Yang, holding the ball in both hands, quickly bent his waist and pointed his right foot forward to the right.

"Testing step! No, he mostly shoots jump shots here." Leonard, who watched many videos of Young's games before the game, made a quick decision and decided to block his shooting angle.

"sudden"

Since half a step of space is given, how can there be no reason not to make a sudden move?

After Yang reacted, he immediately picked up speed with half a step and broke through half of Leonard's defense.

But Leonard is not an ordinary defensive player. When he reacted, he immediately adjusted his body shape and started to fill the position.

Seeing Tim Duncan about to arrive at his location, Yang, who was about to turn into a sandwich biscuit, immediately made his decision:

pull-up jump shot

Even in order to prevent the two people from interfering, the 2.11-meter-long man manually used drift and tilt that he rarely used.

"Shua"

How could Young take action and immediately help the 76ers solve their offensive problems like others?

"Beautiful mid-range jumper. I rarely see a rookie make such a great mid-range jumper."

"That's why everyone in America thinks he's the No. 1 pick."

4:17

Spurs offense

After leading the ball several times to scatter the 76ers' defense, the Spurs easily found an opportunity for Aldridge to score two points.

Faced with such an easy opportunity, Aldridge steadily put the ball into the net

4:19

"Quick, quick"

Since the opposite side was the Twin Towers, Young chose to rush for a quick baseline kick in order to gain a semi-quick break opportunity.

The Spurs' defense seemed to read this, and they quickly deployed perimeter defense

Seeing no chance, after halftime,

Yang began to slowly fall into the rhythm of positional warfare:

Then the ball was handed to McConnell.

"Tactics No. 1?" Although it was a bit strange, Yang, who was moving at the waist position, still came to the three-second zone and was ready to launch.

"It's idrollbareen." After playing a few games, the 76ers' tactics have almost been figured out.

Even after being figured out, Young, who was tasked with setting up three-pointers, still pulled out the Spurs' defense.

"Bang"

It's a natural thing to pass out the alley-oop.

6:19

"clang"

After collecting the defensive rebound of Tony Parker's missed shot

Young immediately strode towards the Spurs half court.

"Stop him"

Although there are not too many monsters these days, those who have been lucky enough to see two Spurs know that once they get up to speed, they will be in trouble.

However, since Tony Parker was the first to retreat to the basket, Danny Green, who was the second line of defense, did not dare to stand near the midline to intercept Young's fast break for fear of being passed by in one step.

This also gave Young an opportunity to observe his teammates.

"Jerami"

Grant and himself were positioned very well, giving Young the confidence to trust him and pass the ball to him.

The trust was quickly rewarded, and the two passed through Danny Green's defense in the blink of an eye.

Facing Tony Parker, Young's solution was much simpler:

Working at heights

"Bang~~~~bang~~~~" Faced with Grant's alley-oop dunk, Tony Parker had no choice but to give up 21 if he didn't watch it go into the frame.

8:19

…………

…………

"The Spurs didn't let anyone else attack this time, they gave the ball to Aldridge."

"Facing Grant, Aldridge chose to go to the baseline."

"Young in the corner let Leonard go. He wanted to cut the ball. This decision was really bold."

"beep"

"The referee called a foul on the batter."

"Because the 4 fouls didn't come in, it was still the Spurs' frontcourt ball."

Taking advantage of this dead ball, the Spurs made substitutions. They replaced Parker with Mills, Rasul Butler replaced Danny Green, and Diaw replaced Duncan.

…………

…………

Mills? No, he is serving now!

Butler? No! He is more of a engineer and more of a three-pointer.

It's impossible for Aldridge, so the only possibility is Leonard and Diaw next to me." As everyone stood up, Young, who had been trying to steal the ball, began to judge his target.

As the Spurs alternated coverage, Young immediately saw the Spurs' sideline pass target:

Dior

However, he did not make any noise, but switched to Rasual Butler near the sideline in the Spurs' screen.

Just when Dio was looking for his teammates, Yang, hidden in the darkness, suddenly took action:

One blow knocked the basketball out of Dior's hand

"quick"

After picking up the dropped ball, he glanced behind him and found that no one was coming up. Young had to shout to alert his teammates.

Facing Young, who was taking great strides forward, Mills chose the most heroic and fearless way: drawing an offensive foul.

"Do you think of me as Westbrook? I can only go straight up and down?" Looking at the opponent's choice, Young decisively changed his decision.

Step on the European step and start the layup

"beep"

Even if the referee's whistle sounds, it can't stop the score this time

"2 points valid."

"A beautiful goal. It only took Philadelphia 3 minutes and 29 seconds to go on an 8-2 run."

"Now for TV timeout."

…………

…………

"Pat Mills cut to the basket and hit a layup. The Spurs still lead by 1 point, with 29 seconds left before the end of the first quarter."

"After receiving the baseline ball, Young began to accelerate towards the Spurs half court.

Because there was not enough time, he chose a half-court three-pointer

"Short"

After the first quarter, the Spurs at home led the 76ers who came from afar 29:28.

Young, who played the entire first quarter, made all 4 shots without being harassed by Leonard in the second half of the first quarter, and added 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals, successfully helping the 76ers get out of an early deficit.
