Chapter 255 Mingpai Trusteeship
After the third game, discussions on social media about why the Celtics lost exploded in just ten minutes, and the Google search index once reached a historical peak, which can be called a hot topic in the United States.
"Why, Boston lost three games in a row in exactly the same way?"
"Why, they always fall into a scoring drought at a certain point, resulting in a huge gap?"
"Why, Rivers can't solve the problem. Could it be that he got away with it before?"
Facing the high curiosity of the fans and people who eat melons, many commentators and players spoke to explain.
There are various reasons, almost the same as before, but finally someone suggested that Rondo had a command problem.
"Rondo has always been famous for his high basketball IQ. He can often guess what tactics his opponent is going to play just by listening to his opponent's cries, or just by watching his opponent's actions. High, the key is what tactics the Clippers will play. It is not pre-designed and then implemented, but depends on the defensive formation to decide how to play.
Therefore, Rondo could not guess the Clippers' offensive intentions at all, which caused the Celtics' defensive power to plummet.
Let's talk about the offensive end. Except for the quick counterattack, the Celtics almost rely on Rondo's on-the-spot command every time. "
After such an argument appeared, the accusations against Rondo by fans and melon eaters reached a new height.
On Twitter and many basketball forums, there was a lot of discussion analyzing how Rondo hurt the Celtics.
"He's a guard who doesn't have a shooting threat. It might not be obvious in the regular season, but it's magnified in the playoffs. Look at the possessions that Davis put him on the ground. He needs luck to make some. Basic shooting."
"Rondo is an over-spoiled child. In the 08 Finals, he faced Fisher, who was defenseless, and made him almost famous. The Eastern Conference has not had any good point guards in the past two years, but now he faces the Clippers. Not the same."
"Rondo looks tough, but he's very vulnerable inside, he's afraid of being judged, he craves attention, so he uses extreme possession of the ball to achieve this, and he wants everyone to revolve around him."
On the morning of the [-]th, ESPN invited a number of guests to discuss whether the fans' accusations against Rondo are reasonable.
The guests did not directly agree, but went around suggesting that the Celtics lost three games in a row. The problem was not with Rondo, nor with Rivers, nor because of luck, etc. metaphysical factor.
But the Clippers as a whole are too strong, and only a historic team like the Bulls can fight.
But neither the Celtics nor the previous Lakers, Suns, and Thunder were aware of this.
The four teams all thought they could beat the Clippers through tactical adjustments. Only after the Clippers won the championship and the public looked back at this playoff journey would they realize that the Clippers have the No. [-] player in history. Points per game.
Just like the usual silver-level battles, you can do all kinds of show operations, how you look at it and hang it, that's called smoothness.
But now that Baiyin is playing the king, all the operations of the silver player seem to be as stupid as hell, full of loopholes.
Su Yang also watched the show and agreed with those guests very much. The Clippers are almost armed to the toes. The most commendable thing is that they have almost no shortcomings. They are rarely targeted against any team.
However, in his opinion, the Celtics are not that weak, they just failed to exert their strongest combat power.
After watching the show, Su Yang went straight to the team's temporarily rented training room to gather with his teammates.
According to the schedule, the whole team has only one day to rest, and the coaching staff did not arrange training content.
Van Gundy called the whole team together to conduct post-match video analysis and review according to the usual practice.
"To be honest, we were lucky to win the game last night..."
As soon as Van Gundy opened his mouth, he threw out amazing words, and the Clippers generals immediately looked at each other, all of them puzzled.
Su Yang thought for a while and nodded slightly in agreement, because compared to the previous two games, the Clippers only won by 9 points in the third game.
And those 9 points can be said to be mainly based on the three three-pointers in the opening game, and they lost points in the second and third quarters.
"In the game last night, from the middle of the second quarter, the Celtics used a brand new style of play, that is, Ray Allen used off-ball running to contain Su Yang, and the offensive firepower was mainly placed on other players. on..."
While speaking, Van Gundy called up the pre-edited video clips and pointed to the screen to assist in the demonstration.
Su Yang nodded in agreement, and glanced at the statistics table, and found that Ray Allen played for 41 minutes, that is, after the break at the end of the first quarter, the remaining three quarters played almost all of the time, and scored relatively few points.
In contrast, Pierce, who played seriously abnormally in the first quarter, scored 19 points in the other three quarters, and Garnett also scored 25 points. big.
"My guess is that they will continue to use this tactic tomorrow night, through a lot of screens and quick jumpers to attack our weaker defensive parts. We need to prepare more on the defensive end..."
Randolph and Davis nodded again and again to express their understanding. Van Gundy said that the defense was relatively weak. In fact, when the two of them got together on the flanks, Rondo and Garnett used dislocations to attack many times, and the effect was very good.
The core reason is that both Rondo and Garnett can complete the offense in the short time around the screen.In other words, the defensive oppression of Randolph and Davis is not so strong, the Celtics adopted a gamble, and the bet won.
"They will never give up, because giving up is equivalent to being out, so tomorrow night's game will only be more difficult, and we will also show the same attitude towards the match. We must not think that it doesn't matter if we lose a game just because we have too much advantage. !"
All the Clippers agreed in unison. Although in the history of the NBA, there has never been a situation where a 3-0 lead was overturned, but no one can guarantee that this time will not be the case. There is a chance to win four games in a row. No reason to relax.
After the video analysis and replay, Su Yang led the team to conduct several sets of shooting drills to maintain the touch.
In the evening, the team returned to the hotel after dinner, and Van Gundy summoned them to the meeting room.
"I just saw the news that the Celtics decided to change their lineup in tomorrow night's game. They will reduce the playing time of Kendrick Perkins and use more of a three-back lineup. They will have a physical battle with us..."
The generals looked puzzled, and Davis smiled and said, "Where did you see the news? Why did they take the initiative to reveal the tactics?"
Van Gundy shook his head and waved his hands: "This is what Doc Rivers personally said in an interview. You don't have to suspect that he will lie, because they have fought like that before. Even if we don't say it, we will soon find out..."
Su Yang thought about it.
"The Celtics have nowhere to go. The three-guard lineup is indeed a good choice. Finally, Rivers gave it a try. However, is his trustworthiness a sign from the heart, or is it self-defeating?"
Thanks to Hubao for the monthly pass.
