start with scouting

Chapter 412 Have you ever seen cheats?

At [-]:[-] p.m. on the [-]th, the ATT Center.

With the cheers of the audience, the spotlight hits Popovich, the home team's Spurs appearance ceremony is over, and the game is about to start.

The central big screen shows the starting matchups of the two teams, point guard Curry vs. Parker, shooting guard Kobe vs. Danny Green, small forward Ron Artest vs. Leonard, power forward Dream Chaser Green vs. Diaw, center Gasol vs. Duncan, synchronized It also gives the average data of the two teams in the first two rounds of starting.

From the data point of view, the difference between the Lakers and the Spurs is very small, probably because the two teams play the main team style, and Kobe's score is low.

In the TNT commentary seat, the host Marvin Abbott asked with a smile: "Before Shaq, Kenny, Charles and others predicted that the Spurs and the Lakers each had a 50% winning rate, defending the home court advantage is the key to the series, especially the fifth game. , what do you two think?"

Isiah Thomas answered: "I completely agree. I was originally biased towards the Lakers, but the Spurs showed super strength."

Reggie Miller chuckled: "The Spurs swept the Grizzlies in the second round is indeed shocking, but I still support the Lakers, because Stephen Curry has reached the level of All-Star starting, he did not play explosive performance, mainly because the Lakers' offensive strategy emphasizes the team , but I heard that coach Su Yang will make adjustments in this round, and I believe Curry can help the Lakers defeat the Spurs."

During the conversation, the long whistle sounded.

Su Yang clapped his hands and called the whole team to surround him, and shouted: "Facing the Spurs' defense, don't hesitate, just do it!"

The whole team shouted in unison, and the five of Kobe strode into the court.

The referee walked to the center circle with the ball, gestured left and right to align with the center line, and then lightly threw it upwards. Gasol and Duncan jumped up and competed.

Snapped!The basketball flew straight to the Spurs half court.

Parker picked up the basketball and pushed forward slowly. The other four Spurs ran and settled down. In the blink of an eye, Diaw stood at the top of the arc, Leonard stood at the left elbow, with his back against Artest, and Duncan stood at the right. The side bottom corner, Danny Green is standing in the right bottom corner.

"What kind of tactical starting formation is this? Through?" Assistant coach Mike Brown turned to look at Su Yang curiously, and asked curiously.

Su Yang nodded: "It's very similar, but not exactly. It should just be a gesture of hand, and dynamically choose the attack mode depending on the situation..."

Before the words fell, Parker raised his hand and threw the ball to the top of the arc, while Danny Green simultaneously used Deng's positioning to cover, got rid of Kobe's entanglement, started to accelerate and rushed into the paint area, it seemed that he was going to the bottom line, and moved the left bottom corner in a large range , Create a three-point threat.

Kobe naturally squeezed through the screen to catch up. Without thinking, Danny Green suddenly stopped and joined forces with Duncan to form an echelon screen. Diaw returned the ball at the top of the arc and went straight to the echelon screen. Want to shift the bottom left corner.

"Dior is just bait..."

Su Yang immediately saw through the Spurs' tricks, took advantage of the fact that the offense and defense were on the Lakers' side of the court, stood up and shouted: Watch out for Duncan...

As soon as the words fell, Leonard raised the left 45-degree three-point line to catch the ball, and Parker turned around and started after passing the ball, strode to the right side of the free throw line, and made a screen for Duncan, completely blocking Gasol from chasing , Duncan took the opportunity to mention the top of the free throw coil.

Seeing this, Leonard raised his hand to pass the ball, Duncan caught the ball and immediately made a mid-range shot, Curry hurriedly switched defenses, and the basketball slammed into the net.

"Hey, Bobo finally let the Spurs develop a dynamic offense, and it's too easy to bully the Grizzlies' strict defense..."

Su Yang felt emotional, the Spurs' attack this time, started with a through formation, which is marked by a large gap between the strong and weak sides, but the Spurs actually implemented it, first doing the most basic flare cover attempt, and then doing outside hand-offs, and Echelon cover, and add the next cover, and finally Parker crosses the strong and weak side by a large margin, and there are single-player skills such as RIP and emergency stop and reverse run in the middle.

There is no sticking to routines, no order, no entanglement about who will end it, just to find the easiest opportunity.

Anyway, the tactical running position is full. If it wasn't for Dior's pretending to use the echelon to cover and transfer in a large area, it really didn't fit Dior's positioning as a fat man. It was self-defeating. Su Yang couldn't guess the Spurs' tactical intentions for a while, it was really awesome.

While thinking about it, Gasol made a shot, and then Duncan also shot a shot. The Lakers grabbed a defensive rebound and launched a counterattack.

Curry dribbled the ball to the 45-degree three-point line on the left side of the frontcourt, did not call for cover, and raised his left foot twice in a row to test it out. Move down and retreat, join the ball and push and shoot for a three-pointer.

That rhythm, that speed, was only 1 second in total. After the basketball flew out, Parker reacted and tried to block the shot.

The basketball went into the net hollow, 3 to 2.

The defensive posture set up by the other four of the Spurs was useless. Duncan glanced at the referee, confirmed that there was no foul, and then bent down to pick up the basketball. Kobe looked at Danny Green bored, as if to say: Why are you sticking so tight?I f*ck didn't get the ball again...

The two teams switched offense and defense, and the Spurs settled in a one-in-four-out formation. Duncan turned to a wide screen and set up a wall to block Artest.

Leonard took the opportunity to run from the right bottom corner to the right 45-degree three-point line to get the ball, and the Spurs resorted to a zipper tactical starting formation.

This time there was no dynamic change. Parker cut inside after the ball was delivered, and with the help of Duncan's screen, he went to the bottom line and entered the paint area. De return basketball.

Chasing Dream Green hastily bent his knees and lowered his center of gravity, preparing to grab Parker who was delayed in the pick-and-roll. Unexpectedly, Parker rushed to shoot directly.

Basketball clangs like iron.

Su Yang clicked his tongue: "Parker still has a temper. Just now he was singled out by Curry, and he immediately played an Answer Ball. Unfortunately, this game failed to pretend to be successful. There is not much room for manipulation in the basic zipper tactics... "

"He is very competitive..." As a former Spurs assistant, Mike Brown commented on Parker.

When Su Yang heard the words, he suddenly remembered that last season when the Spurs played against the Thunder, Parker refused to pass the ball to Jackson, who was hitting consecutive three-pointers.

The offensive and defensive transition on the field, Curry dribbled the ball to the left side of the frontcourt at 45 degrees. Seeing Danny Green defending sideways and blocking the middle, he realized that the opponent wanted to induce a breakthrough from the sideline. Straight to the left waist.

In a hurry, Danny Green had difficulty catching up. Diaw hurriedly intercepted from the free throw line, and Curry immediately pulled the ball back.

Seeing this, Dior hurriedly retreated, preparing to defend Chaser Green, but Curry changed direction with one hand in-out with his left hand, pretending to go out, but actually pulled the ball and moved straight to the left corner, facing Dior with a face full of surprise. Defense, and Danny Green blocked the shot and combined the ball to rush the shot.

Boom!The three-pointer hit the circle and entered the net.

Curry was knocked into the audience, but the referee didn't call a foul, and everyone on the Lakers bench stood up and protested loudly.

However, the referee did not change the verdict, and the Spurs took the opportunity to make a fast break. Three-on-two in the frontcourt, Leonard made a strong charge and caused Gasol to foul.

"It's really cowhide..."

It's rare for Su Yang to complain, knowing that as long as Curry's team is strong, it's rare for Curry himself to get a normal whistle.

Cheers erupted in the arena, Leonard stood on the free throw line, made the first free throw, and rebounded with the second free throw.

Kobe ran and took off to get the rebound, landed and turned around to bring it to the middle and lower, looked up to scan the half-court position, and passed it to Curry.

Curry took the ball to the right wing, put his back against Parker to protect the ball to find the rhythm, and then turned to face the basket to observe the formation of the team. Kobe, who had passed the ball before, strode in and made a screen to block Duncan who was chasing with all his strength. On the flight, Saul mentioned a 45-degree wall.

Part of the small cooperation was formed, and Curry pulled the ball to use the cover to break through, tricking Parker into moving laterally, and Limara retreated laterally to make a shot.

bass!The three-pointer went into the net.

Curry hit three consecutive singles three-pointers, helping the Lakers lead the Spurs 9-3 in the start, showing a crushing momentum.

Popovich frowned slightly and did not ask for a timeout. The Spurs bench was silent, as if shocked on the spot.

In the TNT commentary seat, Isiah Thomas sighed: "Have you ever seen someone shoot a three-pointer like this? It's like playing 2K."

Miller said with a smile: "Curry's three-point shooting, even if it is put in the 2K game, it will still be counted as cheating..."
