Chapter 193 This is the League 1

Chapter 193 This is number one in the league

Timeout, Clippers bench.

Van Gundy held the tactical board in his hand, drew two strokes at random, and said calmly: "Our scoring efficiency was relatively low in the past few rounds, but there is no problem with our style of play. Don't feel nervous, keep it up."

Su Yang nodded in agreement. In fact, in the previous few rounds of offense, especially the two times when Davis caught and shot, the Clippers' tactical movement was at the textbook level. It was just a rare continuous strike, and there was no need to change it.

"But we can do better on the defensive end. The Thunder have had more catches and shots in the past few rounds. We have given them a little more space. Next, we can start continuous defensive tactics to delay their catches and shots."

Su Yang nodded to show that he understands that this strategy is actually a continuation of the previous thinking, suppressing the offensive and defensive rhythm of the game, allowing the Thunder to enter more positions to fight, thus weakening the role that the Thunder team's super athletic ability can play.

Van Gundy arranged personnel adjustments again. Gordon replaced Jordan on the field. His main task was to chase Durant and try his best to make Durant feel uncomfortable. Barnes changed to power forward and Randolph moved to center. Location.

The horn sounded to remind the timeout that the timeout was about to end, and Su Yang led the team back to the court.

For the Thunder, Harden replaced Sefolosha and Nick Collison replaced Krstic.

Seeing such a change in the opponent's lineup, Su Yang quickly simulated and calculated in his mind, and soon came to the conclusion that the Thunder's internal and external defenses were greatly weakened, but the overall mobility was greatly improved, and they might play some tactics with a wide range of moves.

Thinking of this, Su Yang pulled his teammates to give simple instructions, and then settled down according to the tactical arrangement.He stood on the right sideline, Gordon on the center line, Randolph on the right elbow, and Barnes and Davis on the far left half court.

Beep!The referee whistles the ball.

Su Yang raised his hands high, and Randolph immediately mentioned the 45-degree three-point line, setting up a human wall to act as a wall positioning.Gordon sprints in a straight line at full speed, uses the wall to reach the short corner on the right, receives the pass from Su Yang, twists his hips and diverts to hit the basket.

Collison quickly switched defenses to intercept, and Jeff Green was also chasing after him.

For a while, Randolph was left unattended. He took the opportunity to turn around and go down, received a point from Gordon, and went straight to the basket.

Durant hastily shrunk and intercepted from the short corner on the left, but Randolph took advantage of the opportunity to take off and hit him with a dunk.

Boom!The basketball went into the net, 16 to 10.

There was applause in the arena, the two teams switched offense and defense, and Westbrook quickly took the ball across the center line.

Collison caught the ball at the top of the key, glanced up, passed it back, and ran to the right elbow.

Westbrook took the ball and moved to the left, and Durant also crossed the paint area and ran parallel to the left.

Westbrook stopped suddenly, and Durant also stopped and ran back, using Green's cover to circle to the right wing.

At this time, Barnes was delayed by Green's wall, and was already behind the naked eye. He finally squeezed through the wall and continued to catch up. He was delayed by the wall of Collison, who arrived earlier, and could no longer catch up in a short time. Durant steps.

Fortunately, Van Gundy had arranged during the timeout, and Randolph directly blocked Durant at the 45-degree three-point line.

In just one second, Barnes chased after Durant again and successfully plugged the loophole.

Seeing this state, Westbrook decisively lowered his shoulders and dribbled the ball with his left hand to force a breakthrough.

The movement was very sudden, and the explosive force was ridiculously strong, throwing Davis away abruptly.

Seeing this, Su Yang didn't hesitate for a moment, and rushed to the waist first to intercept.

Westbrook didn't have the same energy as he did against the Clippers before, stopping and throwing the ball to the left corner.

And Harden received the basketball, calmly raised his hand to aim at the basket, and faced Su Yang back to the defense to make a three-pointer.

when!The basketball hits the hoop and crosses the bridge.

Durant and Barnes got together in the air, and the basketball rebounded again.

Randolph saw the position and jumped up, caught the ball in his hands, and threw it to Gordon.

There were cheers in the arena, the Clippers launched a fast-break counterattack, and Davis received a long pass from the left corner.

He took advantage of the situation and raised his hands high, and lobbed the ball to the left waist, where Randolph was already holding Harden with his back.

That kind of dislocation advantage, the scoring probability exceeds 95%.

Harden didn't hesitate, and raised his hand to take a snap before Randolph caught the ball.

His eyes were quite determined, as if he decided that it would be best if he could cut it off, and if he couldn't cut it off, it would be a tactical foul.

Beep!The referee blows his whistle and whistles the beater.

Harden took the initiative to raise his hand to claim it, and the Clippers got the ball to the sideline of the frontcourt. Davis hurriedly made tactical gestures.

In a blink of an eye, the formation was completed.

The referee whistled the ball, Davis received the ball on the center line, brought it to the top of the arc and passed it to Barnes on the right.

At the same time, with the help of a screen, Su Yang crossed the free throw line to the right elbow area, and got ready with his back.

However, Harden's strength was so great that the fat man was so strong that it made his center of gravity unstable, so he could only wave his hands to give up.

Barnes turned to the ball and rushed to the free throw line, still unable to get rid of Durant in embarrassment, but stopped suddenly and turned around to find a chance to pass to Su Yang. Unfortunately, Su Yang was intercepted by the little fat Harden, and it was still not good. Chance to get the ball.

After two failed attempts, Barnes quickly turned around and passed the ball back, and Davis caught the ball and moved to the left.

Randolph stepped forward cooperatively, preparing to set up a wall as a cover, and the Thunder generals hurriedly sounded a reminder.

Westbrook heard the sound and subconsciously prepared sideways.

But just like that, Davis pulled the ball in the opposite direction and moved half a step sideways, pulling up and jumping for a three-pointer.

bass!The basketball went into the net hollow, 19 to 13.

The cheers erupted in the arena, and Westbrook looked at the bench with a confused face, as if he was talking nonsense.

In the transition between offense and defense, Westbrook dribbled the ball and ran across the center line, first passed it to Collison at the top of the arc, and then ran to receive the pass back.

The Thunder's tactical running position is exactly the same as before. Collison strode to the right elbow after passing the ball, and set up a wall in advance to set up a positioning screen for Durant. Randolph saw it and lowered his center of gravity in advance. help defense.

But that once thought, this time, after Durant got rid of the baseline screen, he did not continue to rush to the elbow zone, but twisted his hips and diverted into the paint area, and Jeff Green took the opportunity to go around, with the help of Collison's cover, in Sideline catch.

Gordon hurriedly squeezed into the wall, unexpectedly, he accidentally knocked Collison over, and the referee immediately whistled for a foul.

Fortunately, Jeff Green hit a three-pointer, but was judged to be fouled and invalid.

This made Durant very depressed. He shouted at the referee: "It should be 3+1, what are you doing..."

The referee glanced coldly, Durant quickly shut up, and obediently walked to the top of the arc to stand.

After the Thunder's second attack and the quick deployment, Westbrook ran out from the corner to catch the ball with the help of a screen.

Durant took the initiative to raise his hand to ask for it. After receiving the ball, he changed hands and shook his crotch, and suddenly started to walk.

Barnes hurriedly turned sideways to catch up, but Durant, as a big man of [-] meters, unexpectedly pulled down and swept with his left hand in front of his body, and instantly turned into a right-handed dribble breakthrough, which made Barnes quickly turn around and turn around to intercept.

It's a pity that there were continuous changes in a haste, and Barnes lost his center of gravity, staggering and about to fall.

Durant took the opportunity to take off with the ball, raised his hand and made a super long three-pointer, and the basketball crashed into the net.

The fans at the scene lost their voices for a moment. The ball was so arrogant that they almost fell to the ground.

The Thunder bench will celebrate like crazy, and Coach Brooks' eyes are full of pride.

Brin said: "My God, he can change direction like this at his height, he is simply an enhanced version of Dirk Nowitzki..."

Jackson said: "So, Su Yang didn't deliberately brag, he is really that strong."

Offensive and defensive transition, Davis took the ball to the right wing of the frontcourt, and handed it to Gordon.

Gordon dribbled the ball with his back, and then changed hands under his crotch. The operation was as fierce as a tiger, but he couldn't shake Green. He had to turn around and throw the ball to the top of the arc. Barnes raised his hands when he caught the ball, and Su Yang The left waist turns and rushes to the basket.

This is a typical triangle attack. Su Yang rushed to the basket and jumped high to prepare for the lob, but Barnes had a little bad sense of smell and failed to pass the ball in time. The Thunder took the opportunity to fill the middle to intercept the space.

Seeing this situation, Su Yang turned around and returned to his left waist, stuck his back against Harden, and waited for the ball.Considering that there is no strength advantage in reckless fighting, Su Yang directly shook his shoulders and swayed, trying left and right, and he didn't even know the rules.

Harden adjusted his footsteps frequently, and soon became dizzy and swayed.

Su Yang saw the opportunity, lowered his shoulders, and turned towards the upper line to pull the ball, but just as he was about to start a breakthrough, he saw Westbrook running over from somewhere to double-team, and Davis, who was at the top of the arc, was completely unguarded .

"Isn't this for nothing?" Su Yang was happy, and jumped up to pass the ball to the top of the arc.

Davis was already ready to catch the ball and take off directly, ignoring Westbrook's flying pounce, and made a steady three-pointer.

bass!The basketball went into the net hollow, 22 to 13.

Brin frowned slightly: "Is this a defensive tactic arranged by the Thunder, or something else..."

Jackson shook his head: "Absolutely not! Even if double-teaming is used, it should be implemented inside. It is impossible for the Thunder to be unaware of Su Yang's passing ability, and it is impossible to underestimate Davis' three-pointer. There is only one truth..."

Brin said with a smile: "That calm and reasonable Russell Westbrook has disappeared for a while."

On the court, Westbrook took the ball to the left sideline.

Collison set up a wall for a horizontal screen in the previous period, but Randolph stepped forward to block the sideline space.

Westbrook slowed down and changed course, heading straight for the top of the arc, and Collison reversed and set up a wall to cover.

Davis bypassed the human wall to intercept, and was knocked into the air as soon as he took a step, as if encountering a large truck.

Beep!The referee whistled and called Collison for a mobile screen foul, and the ball was transferred to the Clippers.

This is obviously a good opportunity to drive the atmosphere. The on-site announcer guided wittily, and the fans cheered along. Davis quickly took the ball across the center line, raised his hand to Barnes at the top of the arc, and strode into the paint.

Barnes turned and passed to the right wing, and Davis then reached the right corner and raised his hand to receive the return pass.At the same time, with the help of Randolph's cover, Su Yang moved from the left half to the right elbow in a wide range, forming a corner with the two teammates.

But it was very difficult for Su Yang to catch the ball. Harden pushed the fat man madly behind him, with a great impact.

In desperation, Su Yang retreated to the three-point line to catch the ball, turned around and faced the basket in a three-threat pose.

He used his left foot as the axis, and continued to test with his right foot. Seeing Harden retract his foot, he immediately turned his back and hit hard.

In a hurry, Harden had no time to adjust his center of gravity.At the same time, Davis, who slipped from the bottom line, happened to get out with the help of multiple screens, and Westbrook, who was in charge of defense, was far away. Seeing this, Su Yang decisively raised his hand and threw the ball over.

Westbrook chased after him quickly, and he just rushed to complete the interception before Davis sent the ball, like a flash.

Davis didn't panic at all. He raised his hand and passed the ball to the left corner. Gordon ran out of the screen and was responsible for defending Jeff Green. He was being blocked by the double wall of Randolph and Barnes. There is a long distance.

Collison quickly switched to anti-swoop, but failed to prevent the basketball from gliding into the air, and even emptied the basket.

when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.

Without Collison, Randolph relied on his height advantage to easily grab offensive rebounds.

Cheers erupted in the arena, and Collison and Green miscommunicated and ran to Randolph at the same time.

But Randolph passed the ball to the bottom corner again, Gordon caught the ball and pulled it out without hesitation, and the basketball went into the net hollow.

25 to 13, the Clippers led by more than 10 points for the first time, and the cheers in the arena reached the top.

The Thunder launched a rush attack, and Westbrook dribbled the ball to the top of the arc in three seconds, and made a long pass directly to the right wing.

At the same time, Durant used the screen to go around and catch the ball, and took advantage of the situation to rush the ball to the elbow.

The Thunder did not set up a formation at all, Su Yang yelled for double-teaming, and Barnes and Randolph followed suit.

Durant seemed to be in a hurry, showing no sign of passing the ball, and forced his shot against the double-team.

when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.

Gordon grabbed the rebound and brought it all the way to 45 degrees on the right side of the frontcourt, changing hands and shaking continuously.

Embarrassingly, as before, he still failed to shake Green away and could only throw the ball to the top of the arc.

Barnes held the ball high, observed for a while and then passed it to the left waist. Su Yang received the ball and singled Harden.

Perhaps it was a disadvantage before, Westbrook didn't dare to shrink the flank, and Harden had a little difficulty defending alone.

I saw Su Yang continuously changing hands under his crotch, suddenly crossed and started, then stopped abruptly and backed away.

His movements were very coherent, and Harden mistakenly thought that he was going to pull his crotch back to change direction, and chose to move laterally to intercept.

As the two came and went, a large space appeared, and Su Yang steadily raised his hand to aim at the basket and cast.

Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 27 to 13.

The cheers in the arena burst, and there were 1 minute and 03 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

In the commentary seat, Breen said: "The director just told me that in the past 17 minutes and 5 seconds, the Clippers hit a [-]-[-] attack wave, and the Thunder except for Durant's top three-pointer, the team only had various Omissions and mistakes.

This situation is very different from when the Thunder played against the Clippers in the regular season. They beat the Clippers 3-1. Even if you don’t talk about offense, their defense made the Clippers extremely uncomfortable. What do you think caused the change? "

Jackson said: "I think Coach Brooks and the entire Thunder team have underestimated the enemy. When they won three games against the Clippers in the regular season, they mainly rotated with eight or seven players. It was difficult for Collison to get playing time.

Moreover, Ibaka still started the game, and he raised the defensive intensity to the maximum from the beginning.I don’t know if you still remember the game between the two teams at the beginning of the season. At that time, the Thunder also adopted a regular rotation and lost to the Clippers. "

Brin nodded: "This is the league's ability to seize opportunities first, and any mistakes will be magnified."

During the discussion between the two commentators, the first quarter of the game was played synchronously, and the Clippers led 29-13.

The large central screen gave the Thunder generals a close-up shot, and looked around to focus on Westbrook. Westbrook was sitting alone on a bench away from the main force, his head buried motionless, his eyes were full of anger, as if he was about to eat people.
