This is a classic tactic that the Warriors will often see in the future, also known as the Bay Area top arc tactic.
This tactic is very strange. It actually requires Green, who is playing inside, to hold the ball in the top arc. In this way, the opponent team will become very uncomfortable. Of course, the Warriors' lineup also needs to be adjusted. Cole did not
The fifth kid was sent because he still insisted on training in the regular season. One regular season game would not affect the overall trend of the Warriors, so there was no need for him to use this killer move so early.
Compared with the "five small prototypes" he played in a cameo last season, the "cards" he holds now are extremely powerful.
It is also a lineup that is designed to crazily grab points in the playoffs.
But even so, Curry, Klay, and Harrison Barnes of the Warriors are all capable of strong shooting. Playing this way means...a lot of pick-and-roll screens to create walls, allowing the shooters to find space to take shots.
. Regarding this, no team in the history of the NBA can achieve this level. The Warriors during this period have achieved the ultimate in the screen + shooting model. Ordinary teams do not have a lot of targeted training, and they can only do it.
Touch blind.
And the fact is that the league couldn't stand it, so it increased the intensity of the whistles and adjusted the defensive standards on defensive screens, and only then suppressed it in the next few years. This situation is very common, it's just one word
, Balance. In order to balance, it is normal to weaken. For example, if you modify the defensive scale of Durant's "Big Loop", starting from this season, you will no longer be given whistles for Durant in this situation.
, there is no whistle, if you hit like this, you will destroy yourself.
Harden is better at this point. He committed a foul during the breakthrough process. This situation is relatively common, but he used it better and more thoroughly.
In contrast, Durant completely "cheated the whistle" during the shooting process, which was a situation that was almost never seen before.
This kind of naked "whistle cheating" was considered by the NBA to damage the viewing experience, so it was "cut off" with a wave of its hand.
So starting from next season, this kind of performance will almost disappear. This is the power of the alliance and "version adjustment".
As a player, you can only adapt, you can't resist.
It doesn't matter whether you are Durant or Jordan or Chamberlain or O'Neal, it doesn't matter who has better adaptability, who will be the dazzling star of the era. The Warriors' approach is mainly about mobile pick-and-rolls, which is too much.
As a result, the alliance will have to adjust the rules and versions in the future to balance the entire alliance. But that is a matter of the future. Now, it is the time when their system is prevalent and at its peak.
The Lakers were blinded all of a sudden. When the opponent started running, the Lakers simply couldn't catch up. No, no, it wasn't that they couldn't catch up, but they couldn't catch them. This group of Lakers are really good at defending against one another.
Many, even Jeremy Lin, is very good at single defense. That's why they can achieve such results this season. In single defense, data shows that the Lakers are ranked first among the 30 teams in the NBA this season.
Butler, Ariza, Covington, and Tang Qian are all very strong in single defense. In addition, others such as Jeremy Lin, Bosh, and Julius Randle are also above the league level in single defense.
Looking at it this way, the Lakers' single defense points are indeed very strong, but... they are not systematic.
This is not obvious or noticeable against a team with an average offensive system. For example, the Cavaliers are still OK because their tactical system is relatively simple. But the stronger the offensive system, the more complex it becomes.
A team will suddenly become full of loopholes and unable to fulfill its goals. For example, the Spurs and Warriors, and even the Hawks this season.
In fact, if you look at the entire Lakers season, the Lakers basically have not won any of these three teams except for the rest of the main players. The reason is here. Their defense cannot guard against this kind of team.
.
If the Spurs are based on fast and smooth ball transfer, then the Warriors this season is an off-ball offensive system based on high-speed movement without the ball, pick-and-roll screens. The two are different, but they are both holistic.
A systematic and systematic attack. Of course, this must be based on the team's chemical reaction, degree of running-in, and degree of tacit understanding. Otherwise, it will be just a show, but not useful.
The Eagles this season actually count, but their overall level cannot be seen in the regular season. In the playoffs, it will be obvious that they are much worse than the above two teams. So why is the playoffs the testing stage?
This is not unreasonable.
Holding the ball in the top arc, the Warriors' shooters suddenly started moving in the Lakers' half. This was the first time the Lakers had encountered this situation. In fact, it is unique in the entire history of the NBA. Therefore,
He was blinded in an instant. The Warriors found an opening and took a long three-point shot.
Brush ~ a clean hit.
On the offensive end, Tang Qian still maintains a strong attacking style of facing the basket. He doesn't have to worry about his physical fitness tonight, because he will always maintain it at the peak level. So it is another offensive kill, Festus, who comes as a substitute for the Warriors
It was his fourth personal foul, and Tang Qian once again made 2 of 2 free throws from the free throw line. This abundant physical energy and endless feeling made his free throw shooting tonight unusually accurate.
Come on~ Except for the few free throws at the end of the first half where he lost his physical fitness and missed all 2 free throws, his free throw shooting percentage in the second half has reached a rare height. This is also the reason why the Lakers can cling to the score difference.
His spirit must have surpassed his body tonight! Cole thought so too, otherwise this situation would be too scary.
The emergence of this X factor also caused Cole's initial game predictions to deviate, but he was not in a hurry.
On the contrary, it made him find it interesting.
He suddenly wanted to see how far this Eastern man could go on his own.
The Warriors still use Green to hold the ball in the top arc. This situation is really a "weird tactic", because generally speaking, those who hold the ball in the top arc are either No. 1 or No. 2, or at least a point forward type. And they are
He is also able to capture opportunities in motion, such as Green standing still and looking for opportunities. It is so T.M.D. rare that it was simply unimaginable before.
Cole has normalized this "weird tactic". If you don't have a defensive system, or the defensive scale is not enough, you will be beaten in one word. Because this Warriors team has far more amazing firepower than you think.
The better feeling is that 50% to 60% of three-pointers are hit, and the most common is about 40%. This kind of running range is also larger than other teams, and they have a stronger ability to disrupt the opponent's defensive position. Moreover, they have
"Illegal screen" is a pick-and-roll method that tests the edge of the referee's penalty. In addition, this upgraded version of the high-post support inside, which has never been played before, is a bit at a loss when faced with a sudden confrontation.
The strength of the Warriors is actually due to Cole's tactical innovation in recent years, but many people ignore this.
Many tactics have never been seen in the NBA before. When you suddenly make them routine, they are very effective. Others have no previous examples to learn from. Naturally, it will take a while to explore and study. The Lakers' defense has nothing to do with it.
The system is a team's original one-on-one defense based on its own personal abilities, and it is even more impossible to crack it all at once.
This season, it’s not that D’Antoni hasn’t hired defensive expert assistants, but…it’s just that the “inclusiveness” of his D’Antoni system is so poor that any defense on his side cannot be integrated into it. Otherwise, it will be destructive.
Without his original overall system, it is obvious that D'Antoni would not agree to this kind of thing. His overall system determines that this is a way of playing without much defense. If you invite anyone to come, it will be useless.
Otherwise, after so many years of hiring countless assistant coaches with strong defensive skills, has any one ever succeeded?
There are so many prestigious defensive assistant coaches, you can't say that they are all "half-timers" and "cheating money".
The money from the NBA is too easy to cheat, isn’t it?
So before there is no way to break this tactic, the Lakers' only two methods are to attack in the first match. It doesn't matter what the opponent's tactics are and how useful they are. Anyway, after the firepower is suppressed, the score will still be scored in the end. This is also D'Antoni's point.
One of the core essences of the "Seven Seconds or Less System". In some martial arts novels, it means that he can force others to be strong, and he can control them. But there is a prerequisite, that is, your offensive firepower can suppress the opponent.
Otherwise, it will mean that he is really strong, and he is really bad. The second thing? It is more simple, just wait and see, and place your hopes on the opponent's shooting percentage is not high tonight and the hand feels bad.
But no matter which one it is tonight, it cannot be realized. The Lakers are still playing back-to-back games, and the team's physical fitness will have a great impact.
In such a bad situation, the Lakers can still compete with the Warriors like this, and the Lakers' No. 29 is indispensable.
He has now scored 38 points. In the recent period, apart from a few scattered outside three-pointers, he relied on Tang Qian to carry alone and frantically attack the opponent's inside basket.
Beep beep ~ Another 2+1, Festus committed five fouls, and once again, he will go down. In that case, this Warriors team will have no tall inside men to use as human shields. But this ball is too big
Qian missed the free throw and only scored 2 points.
It's really tough, but Dongfang boy, can you hold on for the whole game?
Even if you persist for the whole game, will you still be able to do this every game in the future?
If not, the Lakers still won't pose much of a threat.
This game made both Lakers fans and Tang Qian fans worried. Tang Qian scored 40 points, but it didn't make anyone happy.
Even a fool can see that it is too tiring to play like this, and it will not be possible to do this regularly in the future.
Thinking of this and the possibility of meeting the Warriors in the playoffs in the future, Lakers fans feel very uneasy.
What ordinary fans can see, how can a professional NBA coaching staff not see it? Several assistant coaches of the Lakers suggested to Mike D'Antoni that it would be better to replace Tang Qian. It won't work this way, it's easy.
problem appear.
But the current situation is that if he wants to do this himself, will the other party accept it?
This game is also of great significance to No. 29.
He still wants to compete so hard in the regular season.
It's not that D'Antoni can't understand this feeling.
But again, there are many things that you don’t have to work hard for, otherwise, success in this world would be too easy.
The number of successful people and the number of miracles are too many.
As time went on, the Lakers gradually began to be unable to withstand the explosion of Tang Qian's state alone. Tang Qian was already strong enough in the second half, basically rebounding, scoring, blocking and defending, but his offensive firepower was even more
Sharp, more solid defense. If you don't pay attention, it's a mistake, and the opponent will counterattack defensively. Then you hit a three-pointer, and all your efforts in several rounds will be in vain. This kind of hopeless situation makes Tang Qian fight harder and harder.
He was so angry that his eyes were bursting with fire. In the last few minutes, he no longer thought about passing the ball. He just did it by himself and attacked the Warriors' basket like a vent.
After Cole saw this situation, he directly made a tactical adjustment gesture, asking the whole team to shrink inside and defend against the Lakers' No. 29. As you play basketball, you know that one-person defense and two-person defense are completely different situations.
.Even if you are a super scorer, if you are targeted by two ordinary NBA players, your efficiency will still be greatly reduced and you will not be able to open up the situation.
Occasionally, continuous outbreaks are just occasional. One-on-one and one-on-two are not the same thing at all.
As long as you are a qualified NBA player, no matter how bad your defense is, you will still be struggling when two people come.
Why is the essence of "Zen Master" Phil Jackson's triangle offense to allow Jordan to go one-on-one without being double-teamed? That's what it means. One-on-one, one-on-two and one-on-many, the difficulty
It's completely different. Even if you are an invincible scorer like Joe, it will be difficult to remain stable in this situation.
In a word, can you still be in a high-explosive state every game?
If you can't, if you do this, you will be guilty if you don't lose.
Later in the game, Festus of the Warriors was sent off for six fouls. The Warriors' inside line was completely destroyed. There were no tall inside lines to serve as a wall anymore. But do you think you can do whatever you want with this? That's a given.
And the thoughts of fake fans. If you hold it again, two of me will defend you, and three people will break in to interfere with you. Even if there is no 210cm big man, do you think these people are just for show? If the Lakers are strong from the outside in this game, if
It would be nice to have another independent attack point, but unfortunately there is not.
Jimmy Butler, who the Lakers began to train with the ball in the second half, also performed mediocre tonight, not bad, but not good either. After all, he used to play in a role and scored very low. Suddenly, he suddenly
Let him take on the task of being the main attacker alone. It will take a lot for him to adapt and adjust. In addition, this game is back-to-back, so it is not surprising that he is unstable.
In this way, no one will pull away, and you will do it alone. No matter how ruthless you are, it will still be the same.
Of course, looking at the data tonight, Tang Qian was indeed strong enough that even Cole couldn't help but praise him after the game.
He is said to be the only warrior on the Lakers tonight.
At the end of the game, the Lakers lost to the Golden State Warriors by 100-110, 10 points, facing their second consecutive defeat.
Tang Qian scored 57 points, 24 rebounds, 5 blocks, 1 assist and 2 steals in this game, which is very scary. Moreover, 57 points in a single game is also the highest score in a single game since Tang Qian joined the NBA. Unfortunately, the fly in the ointment is that,
This is a "mileage tragedy" rather than a milestone. At the same time, because he concentrated too much on the ball, he also made a total of 12 turnovers tonight.
This is also a personal record for Tang Qian.
The Warriors had an average of 29 points for Curry, 24 points for Thompson, 24 points for Barnes, 18 points for Green, and 15 points... Although no one scored more than 30 points, they all performed well as a whole, so their firepower was more even. Let’s look at it again.
What about the Lakers? Except for Tang Qian, only one Butler scored in double digits. The rest all scored in single digits, and their shooting percentages were frighteningly low. This kind of combat effectiveness is not even matched by the Warriors.
The reason why they were beaten all the time was because the Lakers' No. 29 player was holding on tightly. Otherwise, there would be no deviation from Cole's prediction of solving the problem at halftime.
Even if you open a card, you will lose. Cards are not omnipotent. Tang Qian has experienced this for a long time. Moreover, it is becoming more and more difficult to get ability cards. In the future, you will have more and more time to rely on yourself. Moreover,
With the "Novice Village" and the "Novice Protection Period", whether there will be fewer benefits in the future is unknown.
But if you open a card and lose, the future situation is not so smooth.
It is true that there are back-to-back factors, but more of it should be its own reasons.
The reason for the entire Lakers team.
Putting the factor of losing on external factors is not in line with the Lakers' consistent approach and style on the 29th.
Winning the data but losing the game is of no use except making oneself look more "tragic".
To paraphrase a famous saying in the NBA over the years: Statistics only have meaning when you win.
Throughout the press conference, Tang Qian's expression was very gloomy, because the game on the court was over, and the fighting off the court had just begun. Seeing that the Lakers lost to the Warriors again, many people were at the press conference.
I was anxiously waiting at the scene, gearing up, and was ready to "do something big".
For these people, Tang Qian is now a veteran at interviewing. He has become a good doctor after a long illness, so he has just come out and sat on the chair without even getting hot on his buttocks. He has already noticed a lot of hot eyes and looks.
Non-good means more.
Although this is California, it is not Angel City. In the Bay Area, the Lakers are not popular at all.
After being the Lakers' sidekick for so many years, the day has finally come for them to turn over and become the masters. To say that he is unhappy is false and does not exist. So Tang Qian took a deep breath and prepared for the next battle.
