Chapter 522 [evenly matched, two overtime]
Diao was originally a point guard, and playing Mohamed is a dislocation. As long as the coach allows him, he dares to hold the ball and attack.Diao's figure is difficult to pass outside players, but he can still pass inside blue-collar players.
Popovich sat on the sidelines, quietly thinking about how to adjust if the Lakers attacked and prevented the guard from breaking through?He is used to thinking ahead, and until the end of the game, his attention is on the field.He is also good at looking at problems from the opponent's point of view, and now he thinks Yang Rui's adjustment is effective, and it turned out to be so.
The Lakers have turned into a hybrid defense, Yao Ming is on the bottom line, teammates are man-to-man, defending mid-to-long-range shots and breakthroughs.
No matter whether Dior shrinks the penalty area or goes out to interfere, his speed is faster than Rashid.In the two rounds, the Spurs failed to score, Ginobili and Parker were both blocked, Duncan's scratching jumper, Bowen caught the ball and shot missed the basket.
On the Lakers side, Kobe Bryant scored 4 points in a row, 8 to 10.
Bowen is already a recognized defense expert. He will watch the video before the game, study the opponent's habits, and use these details to make targeted defenses.For example, if a person shoots on the right, he will drive the opponent to the left.
Bowen, however, rarely limited Bryant, who could shoot from anywhere on the court.
The distance is far, Kobe pulls directly, the distance is close, Kobe makes a breakthrough, even if the breakthrough is prevented, Kobe backs up to protect the basketball, leaning against the person to turn around and make a jumper, it can also create a mobile opportunity.If he feels good in hand, he will go in to face the defense!
Popovich is a coach who doesn't like to double-team stars, not just Kobe. In Yang Rui's previous life, the Spurs played the Big Three Heat in the finals, and Popovich did not arrange to double-team James.He insists on severing the connection between the star and his teammates, immutable.
Later, in the 15 Warriors VS Cavaliers Finals, Steve Kerr also defended this way, because his defense was inherited from the Spurs, and it was also a vein of Popovich's defensive system.Don't double-team the stars, let the opponent take long shots and singles, cut off contact, so that the stars can't lead the team with sudden points.
Therefore, the Spurs are generally not afraid of teams that rely on the team to win, but are afraid of the stars who rely on their personal ability to fight.In Yang Rui's previous life, the Spurs lost to the Lakers many times in the playoffs, and also lost to the Thunder and the Warriors.The common feature of these three teams is that the star XJ Bar D is particularly powerful and has its own tactical system.
After a few more rounds, Popovich adjusted his tactics and instead let Duncan attack with the ball, and others opened up and waited for opportunities.
Duncan singled out Yao Ming in the low post and was inefficient. Pulling out jumpers and breakthroughs made Yao Ming uncomfortable. He would stay near the penalty area and hand over the task of preventing pick-and-rolls to Diao.
The Lakers were suppressed by the Spurs in the positional battle. After Diao played, the counterattack prevailed. He ran faster than the big man, passed the ball accurately, and was responsible for the series attack. Kobe and Mo Williams could hold the ball one-on-one when they counterattacked.
What is more surprising is Iguodala. He has an advantage in body, but he was prevented by Ginobili. After 7 minutes of playing, he could not score a point.
Because there are people like Duncan and Bowen in the team, few people pay attention to Ginobili's defense. In fact, his defensive ability is above the overall level of the league. , and let Duncan help prevent rubbing his ass.
His biggest feature is that he has a knack for hitting people with the ball, and he is good at diving like many South American players.
Iguodala was deceived by Ginobili for a foul during the counterattack. He resisted Ginobili lightly, but the opponent fell back as if he had been shot by a gun, and fell to the ground and slipped out a meter away. .Although he was not so stable on his feet, the referee still blew the ball and hit someone, and was conquered by his acting skills.
On the offensive end, Manu Ginobili exemplified his diving skills to the extreme. In the first round of the playoffs, he had more chances of getting free throws than those big men inside. You can fall in any direction you want.
The biggest highlight of the first quarter was Kobe and Ginobili, who scored 17 and 16 points respectively.The Lakers trailed 31-33.
In the second quarter, both sides sent a luxurious bench lineup that could win many teams in the regular season.
Five Lakers: Jones, Hoiberg, Ariza, Odom, Rashid.
Five Spurs: Timsley, Brent Barry, Glenn Robinson, Malone, Nesterovic.
The Lakers' offense mainly relies on the inside line, Odom organizes the forward in the middle, Rasheed covers the side, catches the ball, shoots the ball or cuts the air.
The Spurs' offensive tactic is that Tinsley and Malone play a pick-and-roll, Barry looks for off-ball cover from the side, and runs to catch the ball and shoot.
Neither side can do anything to the other. Tinsley's breakthrough is also very powerful. The reason for becoming a substitute is that he has developed some bad problems in the street court, and his performance is unstable, and he is often scolded by Popovich.
After changing to the bench, Tinsley can play a better role, has the ball, and can fight in chaos.If Tinsley and the Spurs successfully renew their contracts, Ginobili does not know whether he will be a substitute and become a super sixth man in the future.
Veteran Malone's performance is even more amazing. He made two mid-range shots steadily. He is the best power forward in the league who is good at playing pick-and-rolls. .
Zhang Lili said: "I can't believe that Malone is 42 years old. In the regular season, he averaged 7.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. , he can still function."
Yu Jia smiled and said: "Old Malone can squeeze the young center Nesterovic to the bench, and he only plays 7 minutes per game. Based on this alone, he is worthy of being a superstar."
Malone has a championship ring, but lacks a finals MVP, and is more worthy of the superstar title than Yang Rui's previous life.
After 6 minutes, the two sides replaced the main force one after another, and every goal was contested, and the score was anxious.
In the second half, Mo Williams made three three-pointers in a single quarter and two driving layups, scoring 13 points.He performed better than Jones in the second half of the regular season, and he will definitely be the team's starter next season.
Lamar Odom also played well against Malone, scoring 11 points and 3 assists in a single quarter.
The Lakers lead by 14 points into the final quarter, the situation is very good.
The Spurs won’t sit still. Popovich reused Ginobili, made him a cameo point guard, and played with Brent Barry and Bowen. The three-point shooting rate of the three playoffs was more than [-]%. Maximize the space.
Malone and Duncan were able to make a mid-range shot, pulled out to cover, and responded to the pass, creating enough room for Ginobili to break through. The "Argentine Demon Knife" was unsheathed again, killing all directions, and tied the score in the last 2 minutes.
After that, both sides defended strictly, and in 17.2 seconds, Lamar Odom made a side shot after covering and scored, helping the team lead by two points.
In the last 4.4 seconds, Duncan singled out Odom and scored a 45-degree rubbing jumper on the right, tying again.
The Lakers still had a chance to attack. Yang Rui arranged tactics for Kobe to help him receive the basketball. He forced a pull-up jumper on the left side, and missed the basket under the interference of Bowen. The two sides entered overtime at 110.
In the first overtime, the two sides were still evenly matched. In 6.6 seconds, Barry made a key three-pointer to overtake the score by two points.
In the key ball this time, Yang Rui arranged for Kobe to attract the defense to pass the ball to Yao Ming, who received the ball from a low position on the right.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Kobe made a lot of lore shots in his career, but the hit rate was not high. At the last moment, the opponent would definitely guard against Kobe, and it was difficult for him to seize the opportunity when he shot under serious interference.
In the last attack, Kobe attracted a defensive pass. Yao Ming turned and hit a jumper in the face of Mohammed.
