Chapter 410 Wonderful Counterpoint
The first timeout was only 2 minutes after the start of the game, and the Clippers were forced to surrender their first timeout. The score of 7:0 seemed a little dazzling on the scoreboard.

"Hey! Man, we are a slow team, right, so we will solve this problem next?" In the Clippers audience, some people have begun to worry about the state of the Clippers today. , Losing to the Grizzlies not long ago left them with only one last chance, and today's start is not good.

Next to this fan is a senior Clippers fan, but it is not easy to grasp the situation in front of him. It is not that the team has not been at a disadvantage in the beginning. As an old fan, the scene of falling behind the opponent in the starting hand is for them. It's already commonplace, but I haven't seen a point without a point. Their strong core lineup can get the blast even with their personal ability at the beginning.

The Nuggets' defense is relatively very layered, and it is not the same as at the beginning of the season. George Karl, a crazy offensive coach, began to further strengthen his defense this season. Started differently. .

Danilo Gallinari's defense is very targeted. He uses his height and wingspan to prevent Ansheng from long-range shots, which is a good breakthrough. However, the Nuggets' defense is also very targeted, that is Can't let Anson score, Anson passed Danilo Gallinari's first moment, and Kenneth Faried, who was extremely mobile, appeared in front of Anson.

He didn't care about Anthony Davis who was let go by himself behind him. In this game, coach George Karl had given them a death order, which was to let them directly contain An Sheng no matter what method they used. Don't let them get going.

Anson's pass was given to Anthony Davis, who made a mid-range shot and scored the Clippers' first point, but the Clippers were not happy, especially Anson, who was a little uncomfortable with the defense on the opposite side. Are you really trying your best not to let yourself score?

The Nuggets on the opposite side are very interesting. Their pick-and-roll just now was obviously sweet. At this time, they continue to use the pick-and-roll to bully the Clippers. Anthony Davis was once again penetrated through his own line of defense .

"It's too fast. The speed of this power forward is a bit scary. Anthony's speed is a big problem in this game."

"This terrifying speed is definitely the top one among all power forwards, right? I don't think there is anything I can do about it."

The first quarter of the game ended very quickly. An Sheng was very uncomfortable being defended in the first quarter. He only scored 3 points, but got 5 assists. Whether he has money or no ball, An Sheng will always be in front of him Opposite players appear to defend.

As for the opposing team, that terrible team has played their best offense, fast break, three-pointers, but the foundation of all this is created by another thing.That is the pick-and-roll between Ty Lawson and Kenneth Faried. This pick-and-roll is deadly, and it is a very serious blow to the Clippers' defense.This also made the Clippers trail by about 21 points at 29:8 in the first quarter.

"No problem! We will definitely be able to chase it back later!"

"Hey, our new coach is completely different now. The game has just begun. He will respond to our expectations."

The Clippers fans focused their eyes on the face of Brad Stevens. For this young marshal, they were completely full of expectations. Gro's expectations are completely different. They have confidence in Brad Stevens and can make him the best coach.

As soon as the players played, the Clippers fans were able to discover the most obvious changes in the Clippers. In the first quarter, the main players of both sides had been off the field for a while, which allowed the Clippers to barely maintain the point difference. 10 points or something.In the second quarter, the two sides tacitly began to put their main players on the field together.

This time the matchup has changed very obviously. Anson came to Kenneth Faried and Anthony Davis came to Danilo Gallinari. This is a very interesting thing , Seeing this scene, the Clippers fans sent out a carnival as if they had just woken up from a dream.

"Hey! What a smart guy! Danilo's not fast, Anthony's height is a better limit for his 20-point shooting, and again, he won't let this average athletic white guy break through easily. As for Kenneth? All I can say is that he won't score more than [-] points tonight in front of Ann!"

"But he already scored 14 points?"

"Do you think that under Ann's defense, he has a chance to get the last 6 points?"

The first pick-and-roll was directly defended by Anson, and it was still a pick-and-roll. This time, the Clippers chose to switch defenses. Unlike Anthony Davis, Anson's switch defense insertion time and speed are far from his. Comparable, before Ty Lawson could react, An Sheng had already pounced on him like a ferocious beast that chooses and devours people.

There was no passing angle at all, this was the first reaction in Ty Lawson's mind, An Sheng was too close, as long as it was the forward passing route he could use, there was no hope at all.

Can only dribble breakthrough.This short guard is still very confident in his breakthrough. He directly wanted to pass An Sheng and complete a layup, but at the last moment, he finally tasted the many short guards under An Sheng's hands. The wronged soul!There aren't many guards who can score off of Anson, and Ty Lawson isn't one of the few.

An Sheng's giant palm directly ended this attack, the Clippers easily scored a counterattack, and Anthony Davis finally expressed his grievances about being blown up in the first quarter with an alley-oop dunk at his home court.

In the second round, the Nuggets did not change their core style of play!They decisively continued to use the pick-and-roll tactics at the beginning. This time the Clippers did not switch defenses, but Anson directly confiscated the pass that belonged to the Nuggets.

This time, the matchup substitution directly broke the tactics that the Nuggets rely on most in positional warfare. Once their pick-and-roll cannot be opened, not only these two, but the offense of the other three members of the entire team will be seriously affected.
