Chapter 87: The Thunder's Tragedy After Kevin Durant's Early Exit

"Kevin Durant."

The moment Kevin Durant broke the ball, Young, who stayed inside, had already reacted.

chase

If this situation is someone else, even LeBron James, Yang has the determination to chase after him.

but

Facing Durant with the same size, same amplitude and height

Yang can only gamble on his explosive power, jumping and blocking awareness.

"Snapped"

Young knew he was a step behind the moment the ball hit the rim

"Blue No. 22, defending against the ball." It doesn't matter if he can't defend, and then he will get Robertson on the offensive end.

…………

…………

Because it was overtaken by 10:9
Yang didn't run around as usual, but landed uncharacteristically on the right elbow

Of course, it is not a commonly used back position

"Pick and roll cover man!"

Young, who hardly participated in the role of the screener on the line, but in this round, together with Grant, mentioned the top of the arc to be the screener
"I asked Young to play out with a false cover. I don't trust your entire defense and don't pull it out." In order to make McConnell and Grant's two-person turn have a higher success rate, Brett Brown deliberately used Young's influence to pave the way for this tactic.

only

McConnell didn't change the plan, going too deep inside, but returned the ball to Young
Many people will wonder if there is something wrong with Young's defensive strategy in the league. I haven't seen how good his shots are, so why do he focus on his defense on shooting?

Next, Yang showed it to everyone,
What does it mean if you don't post it for a second, but you stick it on your face for three minutes?

In the face of the freshly released false screen being dismantled in advance, Robertson's reaction was less than a second late, and as a result, Young found a chance to shoot.

"Swish" Even though Robertson sealed his face with the fastest speed, it didn't stop Yang, who made 44.9% of the three-pointers, and completed the second three-pointer of the game.

thunder attack
Facing Courtney Lee's defense, Westbrook used the trick of forcing a breakthrough without calling a screen for the first time in this game

Seeing that Courtney Lee couldn't defend, Covington, who was guarding Ibaka, hurried over to help defend
This defense
Completely fell into Westbrook's trap, so he split the ball in the direction of Ibaka standing on the outside
Since the violent buckle will transform into the little prince of the outside cut
Ibaka's mid-range shot has also become the most important item in his conventional arsenal

12:12
…………

…………

"Let Durant go off the field in advance, is this going to be both 42 minutes?" As the two sides hit the iron several times in a row, Donovan removed Durant early and replaced Waiters with 6 minutes and 37 seconds left in the first quarter.

Looking at the score of 17 to 17, Brett Brown also started to adjust
"Jack Michael"

Jamie Green withdrew Grant, and the 76ers also took the ultimate space of an organizer and four shooters.

With Durant, who scored 10 points, off the court, the rest of Westbrook on the field became the core that the Thunder relied on most.

this matter

thunder clear
76ers know better

So

When Westbrook called Adams to come out and cover

covington and jan

The two strongest defenders of the 76ers consonantly attacked Westbrook before the speed
2 meters 06 and 2 meters 11
2 meters 18 and 2 meters 28
The height and wingspan of the two made Westbrook see what it means to block out the sun.

There is no way to rush

The two flankers are also master steals.

Can't get the ball out, so Westbrook is very anxious

"di"

"White No. 0 walk violation."

"Good job, Robert." After successfully defending the round, Young gave Covington a high five excitedly.

"It should be that we have a happy cooperation." Covington did not accept all the credit for himself, but divided the credit in half modestly and cautiously. "

"Next, it's time to punish them."

Because JaMychal Green can extend his range to the three-point line
McConnell is enjoying the same treatment in Philly as James was in Cleveland
The space of the court has been stretched to an unprecedented size
cover, cut out

cover, cut out

The Thunder, with two big men, was quickly found a loophole by a series of off-ball runs
Bend knees, fold abdomen, counterpress wrists
Jamichael Green, who has scored 20 three-pointers in 44 games, took this chance shot very calmly.

only

JaMychal Green is a little strange, did Donovan only watch Young's videotape?
After coming to Philadelphia, he averaged 38 three-pointers per game with a 2.2% shooting rate.

With such data, isn't it worth letting your center come out from the inside?
It's okay, one more time
As an undrafted pick, I am used to people not caring, but JaMychal Green prefers to convince others by himself
So, in the next 76ers offensive round, he hit another 45-degree three-pointer, but this time it was not the left side, but the right side.

Donovan, whose brain is not enough, still couldn't react in the next round,

He still keeps Adams inside like a turtle

However, this time luck was not bad, Jamyale Green's three-pointer was swiped out after bouncing off the frame twice.

only……

Forget it, let's not criticize Donovan, let's criticize Ibaka
you as a 7th grade veteran
I can't even remember
less than 20 minutes ago

The thing about Young shooting a basketball out the top of your head?

It's okay if you don't understand it the first time?

The second time, why didn't I pay attention to this problem.

If you had blocked the position in advance and blocked people to the outside line, the following things would not have happened.

since you don't work hard
Then God, naturally he won't be on Lei Ting's side
Then the direction of flight of the ball
Naturally...

Jay Michael Green.

Although Donovan's brain is a bit insufficient, Adams is still enough

Seeing that Jay Michael Green got the ball from beyond the three-point line for the fourth time, he also rushed forward regardless of the coach's defensive strategy.

It's just that Jamichael Green found the touch...

…………

…………

17 to 17 became 17 to 26, still did not let Donovan react
However, the assistant coach of the Thunder reacted at this time,

So I quickly asked for a timeout.

"Switch on screen, we'll do to Philly what we did to Golden State"

Although Young is somewhat similar to Curry, but when you pick and roll and switch defenses,

Isn't it just to untie Yang?

Once Robertson is replaced, do you expect Westbrook to lift his waist?

But
It's not the point,

Your next turn is an offensive turn.

Flank
Or the joint attack of Covington and Young
Although Westbrook took precautions, he was inevitably caught

Good luck this time, though

Westbrook hands the ball to Waiters in the gap

Waiters also lived up to expectations and got the ball in.

only

defensive end,
Ibaka vs. Young

…………

…………

Although it is usually basically done
But 1V1
Let's use some technology
So he used James Harden's favorite crotch dribble

Hesitation

"Been seen through?" The route of Xixibu's breakthrough was blocked, and Yang immediately passed the ball to his right hand with his crotch.

Then the ball goes through the crotch and returns to the left hand

Sudden

After the prelude, Yang immediately started

Because of the relationship between left and right shots, Ibaka really shifted his center of gravity to the left

When Ibaka's center of gravity just came to the left

The large change of direction to the right was skillfully connected by Yang.

ok
Ibaka, whose center of gravity is on the left, has no time to pull his center of gravity back to the right.

Because of this, the space that was shaken

deadly enough.

"really."
