The way of the center

Chapter 807

George Ricard, this guy is probably one of the craziest coaches in the NBA.When he moved from the NCAA to the NBA, he rejected the contracts of all assistant coaches of the team.The head coach is the only goal for this guy.

Not all coaches who have turned from college to professional have the courage of Ricard. In the end, Nell Orsi, who had nowhere to go because Roy and Oden were both scrapped, signed Ricard under heavy pressure.As a result, everyone has seen that Ricard brought the best basketball player in the world to Portland.

Ricard has been able to lead the team to the playoffs every year since he joined the NBA. This guy is well known for his various unreasonable tricks and bold employment strategies in the game.Most importantly, the guy's strategy, no matter how improbable it may seem, often leads to victory.

So when the game is now over with 26 seconds left and the Blazers are down by two points.The cameras on the scene were all aimed at Rickard who was arranging tactics. This guy had arranged countless great lore tactics.But God knows what surprise Ricard and his players will bring to everyone this time.

An Jie looked at the messily painted tactical board, and then at his teammates.Finally, his eyes fell on Ricard.

"Is there a problem!?" Ricard's eyes were beyond doubt.

"I'm fine!" An Jie replied confidently.

"I'm fine!" Iguodala drew a cross on his chest and fought for 48 minutes. He didn't want to fall in the last attack.

"What about you?" Ricard looked at the others again.

"no problem!"

"Don't worry, boss!"

"I can!"

The players gave affirmative answers one by one, and Ricard nodded with satisfaction.At this moment, a huge electronic buzzer sounded from the scene, and the fans became excited again in an instant.

With a big wave of his hand, Ricard sent out five people to decide the outcome. "I have only one request! Win the game!"

"Welcome back, audience friends! In the last 26 seconds, the game restarted! We didn't expect at the beginning that we would encounter such a tense moment in the first game of the Western Conference Finals. At present, the Blazers are two points behind, we don't know Are they trying to play it safe for a two-pointer, or are they desperate for a three-pointer? It can be said that the last 26 seconds are really full of mysteries!" Mike Breen turned on the microphone again, and his voice once again spread throughout the United States.The fans' attention was once again focused on the game, and the best moment was about to start.

"Based on my understanding of Coach Ricard, he will probably directly design a three-point tactic. If so, how the Trail Blazers will break through the Warriors' tight perimeter defense will be a very important key point !" Van Gundy immediately began to analyze from a tactical point of view, Curry, Thompson, Durant and a Green who can switch to any position at any time.It is not easy to hit a three-pointer in front of these guys to complete the lore.

"Let's take a look at the lineup coach Rickard sent. Courtney Lee replaced Shabazz Napier. The other four are the same as the starting lineup. Courtney Lee will undoubtedly play a big role. The deterrent effect. Don’t forget, he is also a good head shot! And based on what I know about Coach Ricard, it is not impossible for him to let Courtney Lee take the last ball. The game It's getting interesting and I can't wait to see him get started sooner!"

While Mike Breen was speaking, Morris was already standing on the sideline, ready to serve at any time.And on the court, the Warriors and Trail Blazers players are crowded together incompatible, and it seems that it is not an easy task to run out of position to catch the ball.

The referee whistled and passed the basketball to Morris!Courtney Lee acted immediately and got out of the crowd under Thompson's strong obstruction.

Normally, when Napier is not on the court, Courtney Lee is in the first position.So it stands to reason that the Warriors naturally thought that Courtney Lee would catch the throw.

However, when Courtney Lee, who was active in running, attracted everyone's attention, Iguodala suddenly pushed Durant away, ran back, and got a fleeting gap!

Morris did not hesitate and immediately passed the ball vigorously.The basketball flew over the heads of Courtney Lee and countless Warriors players and flew into the hands of Iguodala.

Iguodala held the ball on the outside, and Durant immediately stretched his long arms and stuck it up.At the same time, the Trail Blazers players began to actively move, it seems that they want to run a three-point shot.

What about Anjie?Anjie just does some off-ball pick-and-roll work in the paint.At this moment, his sense of existence is infinitely reduced.However, not being noticed, this is exactly what An Jie wants!

The Blazers' perimeter players made a few passes from beyond the arc, but none of them got a decent chance.

Although it is very risky to let Thompson defend George alone, but for now, Clay has done a perfect job.No matter how good Paul George is, it will be difficult to hit a key three-pointer against Thompson's defense.

And Anjie's pick-and-roll did not create too good opportunities for his teammates.It's not because Anjie's pick-and-roll quality is not high, but because the Warriors' switching defense is really good.

The clock is ticking, and the Trail Blazers don't seem to have a chance at all!

The fans in the Moda Center started to worry, but Ricard still looked at the stadium with a calm expression.

With seven seconds left on shot clock, Paul George receives another pass.However, as before, Klay Thompson immediately posted it in front of George.The Warriors' perimeter defense really deserved their reputation, but George was not worried, he beckoned Anjie to pick and roll for him.

After a simple pick-and-roll, George continued to look for opportunities outside the three-point line.Green switched defenses in front of George, just when everyone thought that George would force a shot before the time was up, and the offense was about to fail.An Jie, who had been doing nothing all this time, suddenly cut like a basket!
"Ann suddenly activated! My God, what is he going to do!?" Jeff Van Gundy's keen sense of smell made him see something different.

An Jie quickly cut in, and Klay Thompson's heart was in his throat!The white defender knew that if An Jie was allowed to catch the ball, he would be unable to defend it no matter what.

An Jie just stepped into the three-second zone with one foot, and he jumped straight away!At the same time, George, who was outside the three-point line, tossed the basketball lightly, looking like he wanted to play an alley-oop with Anjie!
"In the end, did the Trail Blazers just want to score a two-pointer? Everything just now was just a smoke bomb!?" Everyone grew their mouths, including Warriors coach Steve Kerr.After spending so much effort, it turns out that it is all fake.The real goal of the Trail Blazers is to tie the game! ?

If the tactics were really that simple, Calder wouldn't be called crazy there.

The Warriors' defense quickly shrunk, and even if they fouled, they prevented Anjie from directly scoring two points.No one wants to play another overtime game, even the Warriors who are currently in the upper hand, definitely don't want to.

An Jie caught the basketball steadily in the air, and beside him were a group of Warriors players who jumped up and tried to stop him.

An Jie probably counted. There are three people around him, which means that there are now two gaps outside the three-point line!

An Jie suddenly exerted force on his waist in the air, turning himself facing the basket with his back.Everyone was shocked. Anjie's alley-oop equalizer wasn't enough. He also wanted to end the attack with a back button?
However, the purpose of An Jie's turning around in the air was not to buckle up, but to better observe his teammates beyond the three-point line!
Just when everyone thought that An Jie would directly dunk, An Jie passed the basketball again in the air!

"What!?" Cole's eyes widened. During the few seconds in the air, Anjie not only completed the turn, but also passed the ball accurately! ?

Seeing An Jie complete an incredible alley-oop pass, Drummond Green's heart suddenly felt cold.Because he knew that Paul George was unmarked at the moment!
Anjie's pass in the air not only made no mistakes, but was also very precise.George caught the ball steadily, and Curry and Thompson ran to George desperately.But this time, they couldn't catch up!

George caught the ball and shot it. The spinning basketball flew over Anjie's head under everyone's gaze.Then, drop straight into the net in front of the backboard with the red light on!

"Go in! Go in! Paul George's three-pointer at the buzzer! This guy scored perhaps the most crucial goal of the game! Incredible coordination, Coach Ricard's tactical arrangement surprised everyone! Look Look at Cole's expression! This guy must still not be able to believe what he just experienced!" Jeff Van Gundy yelled with excitement, the crazy scene just now made Jeff Van Gundy's adrenal glands Sudden soaring.

Cole shook his head helplessly. This kind of tactic can only be played by the Trail Blazers.After all, in this league, there is no center who can pass the ball accurately in an alley-oop like Anjie.

Ricard is really crazy, but Anjie's ability is more terrifying than Ricard!
Cole used up the last timeout in his hand. 24 seconds ago, he was still in the lead. Now, 24 seconds later, the Warriors suddenly switched positions with the Trail Blazers.

Otherwise how to say basketball is an interesting sport?But things aren't very interesting for the Warriors right now.

2 seconds, which means they catch the ball and shoot.Although the Trail Blazers only lead by one point, the Warriors can win even if they hit a two-pointer.But there is no doubt that this is still not an easy matter.

The tense timeout ended quickly, but Stephen Curry's expression remained indifferent.Like An Jie, he has created countless miracles.Why couldn't he create another one today?

The Warriors sent a sideline kick, but like the Trail Blazers before, Curry's No. [-] position is just a cover.The real goal of basketball is Durant standing near the free throw line!
Seeing that Curry didn't catch the ball, Anjie ran directly towards Durant.Facts have proved that his prediction is correct!

Durant made a quick shot after receiving the basketball. Although it was only 2 seconds, it was enough for Durant to complete the shot.

Just as the basketball flew out, a big hand suddenly flew into Durant's field of vision from the side.The most terrible thing is that this big hand also slapped the basketball away!
The red light on the backboard suddenly turned on, and the owner of that big hand appeared in front of Durant.

White players, huge "00" two numbers.And the two letters behind that, An
