Chapter 199 Awaken, Durant
Timeout, Clippers bench.
Su Yang stood in the middle of the team: "We need to reduce flanking and instead mainly rely on man-to-man..."
The Clippers' defensive strategy at the beginning was to target Durant first, so Jordan would participate in the high-post attack, and then Randolph also moved laterally from the short corner to make up for the defense. In the end, Ibaka hit a long-range two-pointer, and the entire defensive formation collapsed. bad.
The Thunder obviously played very easily. The most representative case is that Westbrook actually started to think about how to misplace singles.
The reason is that the Thunder adjusted their play style in this game. Durant no longer took the ball directly to end the game, but took on the transition task. In addition to breaking through and assisting Ibaka, receiving the ball around the screen and passing Krstic is also proof one.
If you want to break this kind of routine, you can only temporarily become man-to-man. I would rather let Durant do whatever he wants than let the Clippers team be exhausted in rotation and unable to achieve results. It is purely a measure of the ratio of effort and benefit. choice.
Su Yang explained that at the same time, Van Gundy also communicated with Stevens and other assistants in a low voice, and the entire coaching staff nodded frequently.
When Su Yang raised his hand to indicate that he had finished speaking, Van Gundy continued, "OK, do you understand?"
Little Jordan and others nodded to express their understanding, the whistle sounded to end the timeout, and the game continued.
Su Yang raised his hand and patted Barnes on the shoulder, silently giving encouragement. After all, defending Durant alone is quite difficult.
"Don't worry!" Barnes raised his head and smiled, "I once locked down the peak Kobe, and I just took care of that guy."
These words were obviously bragging, Su Yang responded with a smile, and the two walked into the court side by side.
The announcer shouted "GO LAC GO LAC", and the audience shouted in unison.
The referee gave the ball, Su Yang took it to the left wing of the frontcourt, and passed it to Barnes who was four or five on the left with the help of a screen.
After he passed the ball, he accelerated to the left waist, set up a wall to block Ibaka, and set up a screen.
Randolph took the opportunity to mention the left elbow area, raised his hand to receive the pass from Barnes, and took advantage of the opportunity to make a mid-range shot.
when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.
At this time, the Thunder was unguarded inside, and Jordan rushed to take off and grabbed a rebound in the short corner on the left.
Su Yang stepped forward to get the ball, quickly retreated and pulled away, looked up and scanned the half-court position, and found that Barnes was still in the fourth and fifth positions on the left, while Durant was parked in the paint area, as if he was about to grab the rebound just now , obviously too late to return to defense.
In this case, no need to think about it.
Su Yang raised his hand and made a long pass. Barnes caught the ball and jumped out. The basketball flew from Durant's head to the basket.
Boom!After hitting the circle and entering the net, the Clippers caught up to 14 to 15.
There were cheers in the arena, the Thunder launched a counterattack, and Westbrook quickly dribbled the ball across the center line.
Ibaka took the ball at the top of the arc, turned around and passed it to the left sideline, Durant stopped and waited.
The Thunder started the previous tactic. Westbrook ran to the right wing to wait after crossing the ball. Harden ran from the top of the arc to the right waist to set up a wall as a screen. The moving Ibaka screens each other.
Su Yang noticed the running of the Thunder team, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't double-team, don't double-team..."
Just about to step forward, Jordan braked to slow down, staying on his left elbow like a robot under command.
Krstic set up a wall to block Barnes, and Durant took the opportunity to get off the ball and start walking to the sideline.
Barnes was already prepared for this, and he turned his hips sideways almost in the blink of an eye, squeezed through the wall and chased frantically.
Durant suddenly had no way to retreat, and Jordan was in the way when he went forward, so he simply stopped the ball to find someone.
Harden retreated to the middle circle to catch the ball, took advantage of the situation to force Gordon, and took two steps in a row, but failed to grab the advantage of the body.
The Thunder fiddled around, and there was not much attack time left, so Westbrook hurriedly turned his back and got stuck for the ball.
Su Yang planted his heels and made a strong top. The two fought for a long time and it was hard to tell the winner. Westbrook took off and passed the ball to the left.
Durant took off from the left wing to catch the ball, and with only 1.8 seconds left to take the shot, he hurriedly pushed the long shot.
when!The basketball hit the front basket and hit the iron.
Little Qiaodan jumped up high and caught it in his hand, and threw it to Su Yang with two random steps, and the two moved forward in parallel.
Arriving at the top of the arc in a blink of an eye, Jordan took advantage of the situation to set up a wall as a cover, and Su Yang pulled the ball to the right.
Westbrook hurriedly stepped up to grab, trying to squeeze through the wall to catch up quickly, with a huge difference between his feet and front and back.
Seeing such a scene, Su Yang knew that Westbrook's center of gravity was out of balance and he couldn't adjust his body in time. He instinctively pulled the ball forward to change direction, then caught the ball and took off. Raising his hand was a three-pointer, and the basketball hit the circle and rebounded. Enter the network vertically.
Cheers erupted in the arena immediately, and the Clippers completed the overtake 17-15 in just 54 seconds.
In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook dribbled the ball quickly across the center line, and suddenly rushed to the left four or five directions.
Ibaka went up to cover at the same time, Su Yang couldn't catch up in a hurry, and Randolph tacitly went up to delay.
Westbrook pulled the ball back, jumped up and passed the ball to the free throw line, and Ibaka just opened up and ran into position.
Without hesitation, Jordan stepped forward to defend, while Randolph ran to Krstic, who was temporarily unattended.
The Clippers quickly made up for the loophole, Ibaka simply dropped the ball to try to break through, and Jordan directly blocked the weak side.
Seeing that there was no way to go, Ibaka stopped the ball and turned around to pass back to Westbrook, and then ran to the top of the arc to set up a wall as a back screen.
Su Yang was in the blind spot, and found that he could only squeeze through the wall to catch up with the cover, while Jordan slowly retreated to prevent Westbrook from breaking through in advance, and at the same time watched Ibaka who was going down. The defensive effect is full.
Westbrook fell into Durant's situation before, but instead of stopping the ball, he jumped up and made a long pass to the right wing.
Under such circumstances, although he took off very suddenly, his movements were too obvious.
Gordon saw the flight trajectory of the pass and scrambled with Harden who was about to catch the ball, but unfortunately he failed.
Fortunately, after a lot of tossing, the Thunder's attack time was only 6 seconds left, and Harden hurriedly changed hands and shook.
Seeing this, Su Yang shouted: "Block his left hand..."
Harden's right hand is weak, and it happens that the right side is still on the sideline. As long as the left side is blocked, it is basically equivalent to completing the limit.
Gordon did as he heard, and Harden suddenly dribbled two steps together and raised his hand, aiming at Gordon's shoulder to take off.
Gordon was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and slapped the basketball away, grabbed it and threw it to Su Yang.
Harden put on a sad face at the referee, spread his hands and yelled a foul, but the referee responded with blank eyes.
The Clippers launched a counterattack, and Su Yang found Jordan as a cover on the right wing of the frontcourt, getting rid of Westbrook and rushing to the free throw line.
Westbrook chased after him like a hungry tiger, but Su Yang stopped to pull the ball and retreated, pulling two positions apart like lightning.
Just a little bit to knock Westbrook down!
The audience cheered and shouted, Westbrook bent down to support the ground, suddenly got up and rushed back, Su Yang took off and made a mid-range shot.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 19 to 15.
The Clippers bench stood up to celebrate, and the audience cheered again, and the atmosphere on the scene was bursting.
The Thunder made a fast break, Durant received the ball, and took it to the right wing of the frontcourt, suddenly lowering his center of gravity.
Barnes blocked the left and put right without hesitation, and Jordan also closed the waist area ahead of time.
Durant immediately suspended the dribble, raised his arm to block Barnes, and after a one-step snatch, he changed direction in front of his body to his left hand and forced it into the right elbow area. Facing Jordan's interception, he changed direction in front of his body and pulled back, trying to Go right again.
That little operation is quite awesome.
But after all, Durant is a big man with a height of 210 cm, not a small man like Paul who is 183 cm. While maintaining the center of gravity, he must shoot the ball quickly to avoid too many gaps.
The basketball rolled to the side under force, and Barnes rushed to grab it completely, and both fell to the ground with Kostic.
The basketball was forced to roll to the top of the arc again, Su Yang grabbed it first, turned around and ran forward.
Westbrook chased after them in parallel, and the two of them were like racing iron warriors, rushing into the paint area in just over three meters.
The audience cheered and cheered, and Westbrook stared straight at the basketball, as if preparing to fight to the death.
Su Yang didn't want to waste his effort, so he threw the ball to Barnes who followed up in the middle, turned around and raised his hands in celebration.
With a bang, Barnes dunked with both hands, and the Clippers made a 21-15 attack wave with a 10-0 attack.
The camera on the big central screen immediately focused on Thunder coach Brooks, who didn't ask for admiration.
Westbrook caught the ball and slowly brought it to the top of the arc, stopping and waiting.At the same time, Durant started from the short corner on the left, used the cover of Kostic to throw off Barnes, crossed the paint area to the right waist, and then used the cover of Ibaka to cut outside.
Barnes squeezed through the wall and continued to chase, but Randolph ran to the elbow at the same time, leaving Ibaka unattended.
Ibaka immediately started to rush to the basket, received a pass from Westbrook while running, jumped high and dunked with both hands.
The cheers of the audience stopped abruptly, and Van Gundy stood on the sidelines with his hands raised up, looking dazed.
That expression seemed to say, "What are you doing?"
Randolph hurriedly raised his hand and patted his chest to signal that he had misplaced, obviously forgetting to try not to double-team.
Su Yang waved his hand to signal the so-called, losing two points would make it easier for Lei Ting to relax his vigilance.
In the TNT commentary seat, Miller said with a smile: "I think Randolph's mistake in running this time is more because the Thunder used the starting move again, which caused his muscle memory to be activated and he failed to make adjustments in time. Use pincer attack."
Thomas said: "Tough decision, and it would be terrible to let Durant get the ball easily."
On the court, Su Yang brought the ball to the top of the arc, and the Clippers settled in a 1-high and 4-low formation.
Playing a FLOPPY first, Barnes failed to completely get rid of Durant's entanglement, Su Yang put the ball straight to the left elbow, and Randolph caught the ball and turned around, and made a hand-to-hand cooperation with Gordon, but Gordon did not Can get rid of Harden.
Going around, the basketball passed to the middle circle.
Su Yang received the ball, raised his hand and called for the most solid double-screen tactic, preparing to finish it by himself.
Randolph and Jordan ran straight to the top of the arc, and the six players from the two teams fought in a small area, all of which were physical collisions.
Su Yang smoothly shifted to the right wing, and Ibaka, who was misplaced in singles and switched defenses, had only 4.8 seconds left in the offensive time.
The audience cheered and cheered. Su Yang lowered his center of gravity to his left side. Seeing Ibaka move his footsteps, he immediately started a twisting step and jumped across. He raised his hand and scored a three-pointer, leaving Ibaka at a loss .
bass!The basketball went into the net hollow, 24 to 17.
In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, raised his hand and threw it to the left wing, then turned and ran to the right wing.
Durant received the ball, covered by Krstic, and broke through the left sideline, but he still couldn't get rid of Barnes' pursuit completely, and was still blocked by Jordan, so he had to stop, jumped up and threw the ball to arc top.
At this time, Harden reached the top of the arc with the help of Westbrook's cover, received the basketball and raised it high to aim at the basket.
Gordon hurriedly stepped on his foot and reached out to try to interfere, but Harden stopped his shooting action and changed to the ball and broke through to the left. He stepped into the paint area with two steps in a row. Pick a basket and hit the board.
boom!The basketball rebounded into the net, 24 to 19.
Little Jordan caught the basketball, stepped back out of bounds, turned around and passed it to Su Yang, and it took only one second.
Su Yang dribbled with the ball and made a long pass from the center line to the right.
Gordon caught the ball straight to the top of the arc, passed Durant quickly and then slowly, and then pretended to fly to Ibaka for a layup, circled along the baseline, came to the short corner on the right, and suddenly raised his hand and threw the ball To the right, and Su Yang just stopped there bowed and waited.
Westbrook hurriedly got close to him, but Su Yang shot the ball directly, causing Westbrook to retreat quickly.

The three of Gordon also interacted with Su Yang by high-fiving. Su Dong led the team off the court, and everyone on the Clippers' bench lined up to welcome them.
Adam Levin, the home team of Maroon [-], stood up and applauded, and Su Yang responded with a smile and a wink.
In the TNT commentary seat, Ma Wen said: "Compared to the previous game, Su Yang scored very fiercely tonight. The two think that these factors caused this change. Could it be related to him playing point guard at the beginning?"
Miller said: "I said at the beginning that after Harden started, the Thunder's perimeter defense became weaker. Su Yang no longer had to face Sefoloza, who had the best defensive first team level, and there were still many screens and misplacements."
Thomas said: "It is also important to reduce the pressure on the defensive end. In the last game, he chased Sefolosha and galloped all over the court. Most of the time tonight followed Westbrook to stop at the top of the arc or on the wing, and his physical exertion was extremely low. "
During the discussion between the three commentators, the pause ended.
The Thunder made personnel adjustments, Jeff Green came on to replace Ibaka, Collison came on to replace Krstic, Sefolosha came on to replace Harden, and for the Clippers, Rasual Butler came on to replace Gordon.
The referee blew the whistle and Collison passed the ball to Westbrook, ran into the court and stood on his right elbow.

But Rasul circled a large circle with the help of cover, and made an emergency stop and reverse run, but he still failed to get rid of Sefolosha's pursuit.
There were only ten seconds left in the attack time. Su Yang signaled with his eyes, and Xiao Qiaodan ran up to set up a wall to cover.
The two cooperated in the pick-and-roll, Su Yang went to the right, Jordan went in, and Collison couldn't stop anyone.
Coming to the waist in an instant, Su Yang stopped abruptly and raised his hand to aim at the basket. Seeing that Collison was not moving, he jumped decisively and made a mid-range shot.
Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, Su Yang scored 13 points in a row, and the Clippers led by 10 points.
