Chapter 400 Why 95%
Coach Casey called a timeout, not because he was behind by 12 points, but because Team LeBron was already a bit confused.All five players showed doubts, especially LeBron himself, who stared back and forth at Tianyang lying on the floor several times, as if to say: "This guy blocked my fast-break dunk, unbelievable!"

When the players returned to the field, Casey picked up the tactical board and said: "We lost the initiative and have been playing in the opponent's rhythm. Whether we are attacking or defending, we let them lead by the nose."

"So, next we have to regain the initiative."

"Offensively, we need to take advantage of our advantages, pass the ball more to the inside, and reduce unnecessary rushes; defensively, we adopt the strategy of four people on the outside to suppress and one person on the inside to guard, so as to reduce the frequency of the opponent's running without the ball. Towns You change Embiid, Green you change Giannis, Davis you are responsible for guarding the inside, you don’t need to come out. I’m done, do you understand?”

Team LeBron players nodded.

On the side of the Lakers bench, Walton put his left hand on his hip and gestured with his right hand: "The opponent will definitely make adjustments in the future, but I don't know what adjustments they will make specifically, so we will use the same to adapt to all changes, and directly put the advantage into greater .”

"Harden, you replace Irving, Thompson, you replace DeRozan, attack You Tianyang as the master, and defend infinite rotation. I'm done, is there anything I didn't make clear?"

The players of the SkyOcean team shook their heads.

The 75-second timeout ended in a blink of an eye, and the game continued.

LeBron dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, Towns stepped forward to make a pick-and-roll, and Davis used Green's left elbow screen to cut to the basket. Durant squatted at 45 degrees on the right side, ready to receive the ball at any time .

According to Wharton's defensive tactics, it should be an infinite switch defense, but LeBron has a three-pointer, Towns has a three-pointer, and the thick eyebrows have a 90% chance of hitting the ball when they get the ball. It is obviously unrealistic to use an infinite switch defense.

In the blink of an eye, Tianyang made a decision - release Green and double-team Davis.

Although Harden didn't like defense very much, he was also affected by the atmosphere of the game. After seeing Tianyang's gesture, he immediately gave up chasing Green and ran towards Davis, quickly double-teaming with George.

Seeing this, LeBron gave the ball directly to Green, who hesitated for a while, and finally shot.

Dang, the basketball hit the rim, and it was about to fly out of the rim, but fell into the rim slightly.

No one blames Tianyang, releasing Green is the best choice, because Green has become rigid, and his shooting is not as good as before. Not to mention the All-Star Game, even the regular season in the past half season has been often released.

The goal just now was pure luck.

Changing sides to attack, Tianyang dribbled the ball to the right wing. Durant, who was in charge of defense, kept a step away, squatted and stretched out his hand, as if he was ready to block the shot at any time. Then crossed over.

Durant's single-man defense, the strongest ability is to rely on his height and wingspan to interfere with the ball holder. Although he is inferior to Leonard and Iguodala, he thinks it is not a problem to deal with Tianyang.

Surprisingly, he contacted him several times in a row but failed to succeed. Instead, Tianyang seized the opportunity to enter the inside line.

According to Coach Casey's instructions, he should keep an eye on the outside line at this time, but he followed up by a ghost.

Seeing this situation, Curry at the top of the arc immediately took a step back, just in time to block Green who was chasing Thompson. Thompson slipped to the right wing, and Tianyang on the inside seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and decisively distributed the ball.

Thompson received the ball, wide open in front of him, and made a steady three-pointer.

Swish, the basketball went into the net hollow, 21 to 8.

In the TNT live broadcast room, Barkley was full of surprise: "This is too evil."

Kenny nodded: "LeBron and the others have become as if they can't play."

On the court, LeBron dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, and it was still Towns' pick-and-roll and Davis cutting.

The same offensive method naturally encounters the same defensive method. Harden and George let go of Green.

Green raised his hand to ask for the ball, but LeBron kept an eye out and chose to rush to the basket and tear up the defensive formation.

Both Curry and Tianyang were stopped by Towns in the pick-and-roll, and LeBron rushed to the free throw line and made an emergency stop.

Hit!Finally got 10 points.But LeBron looked excited, as if there was something happier.

Changing sides to attack, Tianyang just dribbled the ball across the center line, LeBron stepped forward to press, but the movement was not big, it seemed that he just wanted to put pressure on Tianyang.At the same time, Durant entangled with Curry on the left wing, Towns competed with Thompson at the top of the arc, Green intercepted Harden at the free throw line, and Davis defended George at the basket.

This is to act according to Casey's instructions to minimize the Tianyang team's off-ball movement.

With less off-ball movement, there is less space for shots, and the number of three-point shots is also less.

Tianyang saw all this in his eyes, and instantly understood LeBron's team's intentions. He immediately made a rhythm change to open up space, and then accelerated to get rid of LeBron.

Although Casey said that the inside line was handed over to Davis, LeBron followed in like Durant, but Tianyang made an emergency stop inside the free throw line and made a throw-up shot in the face of Davis, allowing LeBron to chase Hat's wish came to naught.

Turning his head, LeBron rushed to the free throw line with the help of Towns' pick-and-roll at the top of the arc, made a direct shot and made a hit.

The SkyOcean team attacked, and Curry rushed to the left wing under Durant's interference all the way. With the help of Tom Thomp and Harden's double block, he shot a three-pointer under the defense of Green's head and hit the iron.

Davis grabbed the rebound, and after consecutive long passes, Durant took the ball at the top of the arc, and with the help of Towns rushed to the short corner on the right to make a mid-range shot and made a hit.

The Tianyang team attacked again, and Tianyang set up a pick-and-roll with Curry at the top of the arc, using the space of a body to rush for two points and hit.

……

In a blink of an eye, in the last 2 minutes of the first quarter, the SkyOcean team led 35 to 26, and the scene entered an official timeout.

Ernie held a tablet and said: "I have a question from the audience here, why are the two teams not defending very much suddenly? Why do they just block and shoot at random in offense? Is it back to the old 'Hi, I'm good, everyone' Good 'all-star game mode? The number of likes for this question is as many as 2000, what do you think of the three?"

O'Neill: "I don't think so, it feels more like both teams have run out of moves."

Kenny: "This is one reason, and another reason is that the benefits of complex tactics are not high. Everyone has seen the previous attacks of LeBron's team. It is better for LeBron and Durant to block and shoot at random. "

Barkley: "Actually, it's because the starting lineups of the two teams and the lineup after the timeout are very strong. No player needs those complicated tactics. Of course, the most important thing is that no one can defend the other!"

Ernie: "So, you're saying, both teams are committed?"

"Of course!" The three O'Neills spoke in unison.

"Then the next substitute lineup will determine the trend of the game?" Ernie asked again, "According to the mainstream comments before the game, the Tianyang team is more optimistic about the substitute lineup. There's a good chance of winning."

"No, it's physical strength. Don't look at the players of the two teams and take shots, but it's not easy for them to 'block' every time. Tianyang and Curry have to take the ball against the interference of LeBron and Durant To the top of the arc. Similarly, LeBron and Durant must always beware of Tianyang and Curry's steals." Barkley said seriously.

"Yes, physical strength, which is why we call Ginobili '20 minutes of Jordan'." Kenny added.

"When the physical strength of the two teams is greatly exhausted, the taller group is obviously easier to score goals, which is why 95% of the fans support Team LeBron at the beginning." O'Neal said.
