Chapter 520: It is possible to do separate defense, but the combined problem is too difficult, so I cant do it!
"Once upon a time, the Spurs signed Bruce Bowen to deal with Kobe Bryant.
Now in order to deal with James and Durant, the Spurs selected Leonard...
Referring to the situation against Kobe, the extent of Leonard's growth determines whether the Spurs can go further. Leonard's physical talent and defensive potential are now visible to the naked eye, but if he wants to be able to deal with James or Durant
There is still a slight difference of hundreds of millions of points..."
Of course, with the DGP combination at the back, Leonard, as a component of the three-horse carriage, does not need to be at the level of James Du. He only needs to hurt each other and reduce their efficiency, so as not to be overwhelmed, thereby making the team's entire defense
The system will collapse.
As for losing a few "waiting" points, it is still within the range that the Spurs can afford.
Don't panic!
In the transition between offense and defense, the Spurs were not slow, and Parker took the ball to the frontcourt.
Duncan and Diaw still did not enter the low position, but stayed in the corners on both sides to provide support and cover in the high position.
“The Thunder’s defense is very uncomfortable.
The Spurs' twin towers were raised to a high position, and the two wings were running back and forth between the two bottom corners, always threatening the Thunder's basket or three-pointers from the bottom corners and wings..."
The Princeton system's high-post support and position borrowing can produce an off-ball pick-and-roll effect.
The Thunder's Perkins and Yin Baka came out to defend, and the Spurs' two wings crossed. If it didn't work once, it would be two. It would always make the Thunder's forwards on both wings press and defend, which would be impossible to withstand.
At this time, Su Bei and Durant were very active and resisted.
However, the Spurs are very good at this tactic and know many things...
"Audi pulled outside the three-point line and received Parker's pass. Then, Parker cut inside without the ball. With Duncan's cover, he got rid of Westbrook's pursuit. Audi quickly passed the ball to Parker..."
boom--!
Make some luck, control the rhythm, and make Yin Baka's defensive predictions hesitant.
Parker rode an archery horse and threw the basketball...
Swish——!
With the knife in hand, Parker easily sent the basketball into the basket.
"Beautiful team offense, the Spurs' tactics are so unpretentious!
But every change of tactics is a test of the Thunder’s defense in detail..."
Using such expensive tactics to test the cadres... no, it is to test the Thunder team.
With the Thunder's defensive system, who can withstand such a test?
Hong Kong and Thunder's defense was not inactive. All members were running around. However, they were able to defend against a single player.
One word: too passive.
Like a few headless flies running around, I don't know why I was defending, and I don't know how my home was stolen so easily.
5 to 4!
Off the court, Scott Brooks had a solemn face.
This defensive problem is a difficult problem outside the textbooks. He doesn't know how to do it!
No choice but to continue watching.
Compared to the Spurs' complex offensive tactics, the Thunder's offense is much simpler.
"Westbrook brought the ball to the frontcourt, immediately dribbled the ball and continued to be a reckless person.
Parker couldn't compete, so they could only fight and retreat. The Spurs defended a zone defense with two big inside lines. They ignored the attacks of Perkins and Yin Baka and continued to pile people into the penalty area.
The Spurs' wings, however, chose to place a three-pointer from the corner, shrink back into the slip area, and cut off Westbrook's pass line to the corner..."
The Spurs' defensive look is very familiar. It cannot be said to be similar to the Mavericks' defensive strategy against the Heat in the 2011 Finals, but it can only be said to be exactly the same.
The question is to shrink up and shoot with your opponent!
The Thunder's shooting situation is very different from the Heat's shooting situation. Their athletic talent is absolutely ceiling level, but I bet you don't have bullets in your shooting pistol.
Of course, even if there are bullets, the Spurs can only defend as if they have no bullets.
Even if you use long-distance shots to kill them, they will admit it!
"Westbrook went in, wasn't used to the Spurs' defense, and he took the shot.
Raising his hand is a zombie pull-up jump shot...
Bang-dang——!
Missed, the basketball missed.
The rebound was taken by Duncan and he immediately threw the ball across half court. Parker got the basketball. While changing direction to avoid Westbrook, he sent the basketball to Leonard who rushed to the frontcourt. Only the basket was left in front of him..."
Bang-dang——!
A mediocre slam dunk.
Leonard counterattacked and scored the basketball steadily.
5 to 6!
Since 2009, the Spurs have changed their dull and slow style of play, carried out self-renewal and evolution, and focused on a brisk offense.
Among them, defensively, it can quickly switch to assist defense, and offensively, it can increase the threat in the transition between offense and defense...
The gdp combination is old, but they are still so brave and choose to speed up. This cool operation is simply amazing. Who can resist it?
In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook still knows how to count. He did not use his shooting skills within five meters to test the Spurs' defense...no, it was to test whether he could send away the Thunder's offense.
Therefore, you need to change the swing.
If Westbrook misses, Durant takes the swing.
This is the normal operation of the Thunder, not putting all their eggs in one basket.
The Wang Zha combination's attack also worked in the same way.
Su Bei pulled to the right three-point corner to contain Danny Green's defense and continued to play soy sauce.
"Durant is a triple threat and is entangled in Leonard's death.
Struggling left and right for a few times, Durant could only break through facing the basket, change direction, accelerate in, and then pull up the ball and shoot a two-point pull-up jumper..."
It is impossible to break through to the end. The Spurs' penalty area is still blocked.
Durant doesn't know how to post up. He is surrounded by death and can't find his shooting rhythm. He can only dribble the ball and break through. In addition, the penalty area is heavily guarded by the Spurs. Breaking through is, in the end, impossible.
Durant's only option is to shoot a pull-up jumper!
You mean passing the ball?
Don’t want the leading scorer’s card?
Therefore, Leonard predicted Durant's movements and did a very good job in defense. He covered Durant's entire face with his big hand that could grab the basketball with one hand, and then bet on Durant's two hands. There are no bullets in the pistol.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bang Dang——!
You guessed it, Durant's pistol has no bullets.
Durant wanted to take advantage of the rookie and forced himself to shoot Leonard in front of him. He failed to get in and only stayed outside.
"The rebound was protected by Diaw, he took a step forward, quickly found Parker with the ball, and rushed forward with the ball.
Leonard and Danny Green, one on the left and one on the right, like two sharp knives, also rushed towards the frontcourt..."
The Spurs' counterattack is here again!
After all, in terms of mobility, the Spurs are just a younger brother compared to the Thunder.
"The Thunder retreated very quickly and did not allow the Spurs to counterattack.
Of course, the Spurs have the idea of making a hit or miss. If they can counterattack, they will take action decisively. If there is no chance, they will stabilize the wave and wait for Duncan and Diaw to come back..."
Another high-level support.
This time the Thunder also shrank, and neither Perkins nor Yin Baka expanded their defense.
Durant and Su Bei did not pursue Leonard and Danny Green mindlessly.
At this time, Danny Green broke through and came out of the right corner, pulled to 75 degrees from the three-point line, received Parker's pass, and took aim. Su Bei could not ignore it and could only defend it.
Parker cut inside without the ball and got to the basket, taking away Westbrook's defense.
You must know that Parker can have accurate mid-range shots and sharp breakthroughs. It is understandable to shoot three-pointers, but it is impossible to defend two-pointers if he shoots two points.
"Duncan on the left set a screen for Leonard and got rid of Durant's defense.
At the same time, Diaw cut to the basket without the ball, received a pass from Danny Green, made another ground pass, passed the ball to Leonard who cut in through the air, and then took the ball for a layup...
…”
Peng, shua——!
5 to 8!
Leonard made an easy layup, adding to the Spurs' scoring streak.
“Very good team offensive tactics!
When the Thunder shrank, they still couldn't change the situation of being beaten.
The Spurs' offense is a whole. If you beat the Thunder as an individual defensive team, what can you do to defeat it..."
You can't stand it!
The Spurs' twin towers' high-post support, Danny Green's three-pointer, Parker's mid-range shot, Duncan's screen, Diaw's pass, Leonard's off-ball cuts... defend separately, these few problems, the Thunder
It's very possible to do it, but it would be too difficult to put together a combination problem. The Thunder can't do it!
In the team attack mode of the Spurs, even if Yin Baka sweeps up the defense, Leonard only needs to throw the ball into the sky, and Duncan, who follows behind, still has a chance to end the Thunder's basket.
It’s really unworthy!
"The direction of the game is in the Spurs' favor.
Next, let’s see how the Thunder respond?
Westbrook still broke through with the ball, he went in, and then shot... no, in the air, he threw the basketball out and found Su Bei in the right corner. It was a very reasonable passing choice.
Catch the ball, lift it up, collect the ball, wait for Danny Green to pass by, then Su Bei lifts the ball, raises his hand and shoots a three-point jumper. This is the rhythm that Su Bei is most familiar with..."
The basketball drew an arc of a full moon in the air. With a swish sound, the crisp sound of net wiping sounded, and the basketball fell into the white net flowers.
The three-pointer hit the net.
8 to 8!
There is really nothing wrong with bullying the shooting skills of the Thunder's two perimeter players and the Thunder's two interior towers.
However, after being bullied by the Mavericks last season, the Thunder also made reinforcements.
Su Bei's three points is the answer!
“Su Bei’s three-pointer must not be let go!
Since his debut in 2005, Su Bei's three-pointers have taught his opponents how to behave in the playoffs year after year.
The Spurs are not the first, nor are they the last..."
Off the court, Bo Povich's face was calm!
Su Bei can't miss the three-pointer, it's a left shot!
However, the Spurs also have their own persistence.
In the past, during the K-combination era, they dared to let Kobe go. Even if Kobe beat him to death in isolation, they would still implement the strategy of defending Kobe alone.
Now facing the three-point problem in Jiangsu Province, they will not compromise.
After all, Duncan's athletic ability has declined severely and he can no longer help defend, so he can only stay in the penalty area.
If the Thunder implements a cover tactic to help Su Bei escape, will Duncan be able to defend his way out, or will he not be able to escape without guarding?
Even if Duncan defends it, it is not very fast, and it is of no use, and a few drops are wasted.
At that time, the Spurs are likely to face a situation where they cannot defend the perimeter and the penalty area.
Instead of letting the Thunder make the choice for the Spurs, it is better to make the choice yourself. As for being able to decide whether you are on top or below, and change positions as you like...
Moreover, no matter how strong Su Bei's three-pointers are, it is only the shooting firepower of one person, but the Spurs' shooting is the result of a team as a whole.
No matter how Su Bei can play alone, can he still beat the entire Spurs team?
If they can really beat it, the Spurs will admit defeat.
Anyway, Su Bei can be let go, but Lei Lei must die!
Although Su Bei doesn't have many roles, he unknowingly determines the direction of the next game!
