Chapter 132 Passing the Clippers and Waiting for the Warriors
Bradley is only 1 meters in shoes, half a head shorter than Xiao Hang, and the overall size is also a circle smaller.

But he made Xiao Hang send 2 turnovers in the first quarter.

Bradley's defense is another faction. The average defensive expert in the NBA basically has a flow of physical confrontation and harassment without losing position.

However, there are very few players with extraordinary defensive talents and abnormal physical conditions, such as Stockton in the early days and players like Kawhi now.They are bandits.

Don't look at Stockton's harmless face, he drives an F15 fighter jet, his physical fitness is absolutely top-notch, and he is still a famous iron man in the NBA. The NBA's steals and assists list suppresses the existence of No. 2 streets.

Speaking of Bradley, he created a new style of "passing the pass line flow". In fact, this defense has always existed. Many coaches will tell the players to stand on the opponent's passing line, but every player is talented. Limited, and usually don't actively check the video, who knows where the opponent's habitual passing route is.

But Bradley is different. He uses his extremely high ball quotient to watch the opponent's game video all the year round, analyze the opponent's tactics, calculate the pass line with a high probability of the opponent, and then lay in ambush while maintaining his own defensive position. The ball player is most likely to pass the ball in the next step, and even my tactic here is to force the ball holder to pass the ball. In the end, hey, just wait for the ball to come by itself.

So Xiao Hang fell into this trap twice and passed the ball into Bradley's arms, causing the first quarter to be beaten, 29 to 22, behind by 7 points. Biggest difference so far.

This is Xiao Hang who has never seen such a defensive player. Anyway, there are still 3 games against the Clippers this year, so Xiao Hang still has a lot of opportunities to adapt.

"Xiao Hang, how are you, Bradley, you are very strong." At the beginning of the second quarter, with several substitutes on the court, Popovich chatted with Xiao Hang.

"The defense is terrible. It feels like he exists, but he can always destroy our offense. It seems that he understands our own tactics better than us." Xiao Hang felt the suppression of IQ for the first time. The last time he played against James It doesn't feel like that.

That's no way, Bradley relies on defense to make a living, and James has to attack and lead the team's offense in addition to defense. This is the energy. It depends on the individual distribution. James puts 30% on defense and 40% on offense. The team puts 30% on offense, while Bradley can put 80% on defense, but only 20% on offense.

"Learn more, I hope you can do the same." Popovich actually showed a Duncan-like evil smile, and Xiao Hang shuddered instantly.

Popovich has really high demands on himself. AB's defense like this is really not something that ordinary people can practice. Xiao Hang counted his time, except for the game, training, and feeling that the rest would be soaked in front of the TV.

In the Clippers, in addition to Bradley causing problems for the Spurs, the Clippers' father, Louis Williams, is killing all directions.

He debuted in the 8th minute of the first quarter, and now in the second minute of the second quarter, a total of 6 minutes, he has scored 5 points on 4 of 8 shots, and the efficiency is very high.

Popovich can only send Xiao Hang on the field first. After all, he is the youngest guy in the team, and now he is suppressing Williams just after the game, and Xiao Hang can rest more later.

Xiao Hang is tall and has long arms, fast speed and strong strength. He is the nemesis of small guards like Williams who rely solely on speed. Coach Chuanhe Document also called a timeout and sent the starting players up. Otherwise, Williams and Teodosic, who are strong offensively and defensively weak, and Baba, who is not bad at defense but can't keep up Prince Mott, these 3 outside lines are the ones that Xiao Hang slammed.

Passing the ball is a bit difficult, but singles is not difficult.

Both DeRozan and Xiao Hang's physical advantages completely suppressed Bradley.

Good things have to be learned, even if it is the opponent's tactics, Popovich now has two singles masters in his hands, the Rockets' singles and creeping, and the Spurs have begun to use them.

Under the consecutive singles of DeRozan and Xiao Hang, the Clippers quickly became overwhelmed. At the end of the halftime, the Spurs had a 56-47 lead by 9 points.

The following games also continued to follow the Spurs' rhythm. Xiao Hang and DeRozan clocked out of get off work smoothly in the third quarter. Although the Clippers had a bit of a counterattack rhythm in the fourth quarter, the pit ahead was too big.

95 to 89, in the end the Spurs took the Clippers by 6 points.

After winning the Clippers, the Spurs returned to their home court for two days to recuperate, and they are about to face the challenge of the Warriors at home.

The Warriors played against the Rockets on the day the Spurs played the Clippers. They started the first three-game away game in Texas. They also played the first overtime game in the league. In the end, they relied on Durant's 7 points in overtime. The Rockets were taken away 129 to 125.

This time the Warriors have back-to-back Texas three-links. Yesterday they had another battle with the Lone Ranger. Although they defeated the Lone Ranger in regular time, it can be said that half of the skin was lost. 101 to 99, it still depends on the Lone Ranger In terms of face, Matthews rolled out of the frame for the last three points, and the Warriors won.

This time, it can be said that the Spurs are waiting for work with leisure to face the warrior who has been beaten by his other two Texas brothers.

But the Warriors are the Warriors after all, and they have been given the title of "Cosmic Team". Curry, Thompson, Durant, and Dream Chaser, the four All-Stars last season are enough for 99% of the teams to eat a pot, and in January, Cousins ​​is about to come back, and it will be even more terrifying.

Xiao Hang will face off against Durant this time, and is called the Grim Reaper by netizens, the man closest to LeBron James.

However, Durant and James are not the same type of players. James is more versatile, while Durant focuses on scoring.

Moreover, Durant's real height should be above 2 meters. With this height, he can make various dribble breakthroughs without being intercepted and dropped the ball. This talent is no one else.

Although most insiders in the NBA can also dribble like Durant during training, they don't have this opportunity when it comes to actual combat, and they only have to be cut off against guards.

How to defend the Warriors, last year in the Western Conference finals, the Rockets have already given the answer, unlimited defense, stuck on the three-point line, unless Curry and Thompson explode three-pointers, and if Paul is not injured in the Western Conference Finals, the Rockets should win with such tactics over this series.

And the starting lineup of the Spurs, Murray, DeRozan, Xiao Hang, Gay, and Ade, is an unlimited defensive lineup, and they are not worthy of the Warriors in size.

Now both sides are warming up on the court. Off the court, Popovich and Cole look at each other and smile. The two are regarded as half master-student relationship. Cole was brought out by Popovich, and now he has become an enemy on the court. , of course private education is still good.

Cole is very interested in Xiao Hang. He thinks that Xiao Hang's potential is too limitless. Xiao Hang is like a plasticine, who can be molded into any kind of player. It goes without saying, especially in terms of tactical execution ability, which is very terrifying, superstar-level execution ability.

The big battle is imminent, but Xiao Hang is very stable. During the warm-up, he made all the shots and was very stable. After experiencing the Rockets, Xiao Hang's growth is really visible to the naked eye.
