After changing careers, I ruled an era in the NBA

As the game buzzer sounded, Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals, where the Spurs faced the Mavericks at home, officially began.

The starting lineups of both teams have not changed. The Spurs' tactics are the same as in the previous game, but the Mavericks have changed.

Nowitzki won the ball for the Mavericks, and Su Jiuyun took the ball and reached the three-point line under Danny Green's entanglement.

At this time, Nowitzki came up to pick and roll, Su Jiuyun rushed in, and when Leonard came up to help defend, Crowder had already ran over and used the opportunity to set a screen for Su Jiuyun.

The Spurs were ill-prepared on double coverage.

Su Jiuyun suddenly made an emergency stop outside the paint area of ​​his ribs, and Duncan blocked it.

But Su Jiuyun in the air only had eyes for the basket, and this time he jumped very high. Although Duncan's big hands caused some interference to him, it was not enough for him to change the arc of his shot.

"brush"

"The ball went in, oh, the Mavericks' offensive tactics changed.

Although Su was still given the opportunity, compared with the previous game, there were more screens, and Su made a very decisive pull-up jump shot when facing Duncan.

The ball jumped so high, and there was nothing Duncan could do about it. After all, he was no longer the Tim Duncan in his prime. "

Seeing Su Jiuyun's resoluteness in making the ball, Carlisle almost couldn't help but jump up, and couldn't help shouting to Su Jiuyun who was returning to defense:

"That's it, Su, that's how you fight!"

Assistant coach O'Brien smiled next to him:

"Judging from the attack just now, Feng is in good shape and he understands his problems.

And our tactics worked! "

Carlisle nodded with satisfaction.

Unlike Carlisle, Bobo Weiqi frowned, but soon relaxed, it was just a ball.

The Spurs attacked, and Su Jiuyun came up to Tony Parker just after halftime, constantly disturbing him. At this time, Duncan came up to pick and roll him.

Very solid as always, not giving the defender a chance to squeeze past easily.

However, Su Jiuyun did not squeeze through the pick-and-roll to pursue the defense like he did in the previous game.

Instead, he quickly retreated and bypassed, and then blocked Tony Parker's route.

Nowitzki also gave Tony Parker a certain amount of delay, so Su Jiuyun still blocked Tony Parker at the free throw line and took a step forward.

Tony Parker looked at Su Jiuyun who was two steps ahead, and then at Claude and others behind him who were ready to defend. He did not choose to continue to break through.

But after looking around, I found out how other teammates used off-ball screens. The Mavericks players, except for Tim Duncan, used unlimited switching, so there was no open space.

Now a strange scene appeared. Su Jiuyun just let Tony Parker take a step up from the free throw line, and Su Jiuyun was almost 2 meters away from him.

The other players are covering and changing defenses indefinitely.

Parker was too lazy to think about it. He looked at Su Jiuyun, who was almost 2 meters away from him, but before he came forward, he suddenly pulled up and threw.

Su Jiuyun definitely didn't have time to step forward to interfere, so he could only take a small step and jump up with all his strength.

"boom"

Su Jiuyun's full take-off and long wingspan still affected Parker. In addition, his shot was not decisive enough, so the ball bounced out of the frame.

After Crowder protected the backcourt rebound, he immediately passed it to Su Jiuyun. Su Jiuyun saw that the Spurs had retreated in place, so they did not withdraw from the fast break.

It's a pick-and-roll again, but this time it's not Nowitzki who comes to pick-and-roll, but Crowder.

With the help of Crowder's pick and roll, Su Jiuyun just got rid of Danny Green and found that Diaw, who came up to delay him, was a little slower.

Without thinking, collect the ball and take off for a shot!

"brush"

The ball passed through the net accurately again.

5:0

Popovich's frown deepened now, but it was only two rounds, so it couldn't be seen too much.

The Spurs attacked, and this time the Spurs ran a play to Danny Green.

Duncan screened without the ball, and Danny Green got a very short open opportunity, but Danny Green did not seize the opportunity and hit a three-pointer.

After Marion got the rebound, he quickly advanced. At this time, the Spurs had not been able to expand their defensive formation. Marion gave the ball to Nowitzki, who ran up from the backcourt.

Nowitzki happened to be at the top of the arc when he got the ball, so he threw it directly.

"brush"

8:0，小牛队不到2分钟打了马刺队一个8:0。

You know, many fans at the scene haven't found their seats yet.

"beep"

Bobo Go couldn't bear it anymore and called a timeout.

"Haha, the Mavericks have changed their tactics, both offensively and defensively, and the results are very good. They beat the Spurs 8-0 in the opening game.

Carlisle is indeed a master tactician! "

In the Spurs' system, the GDP combination must be the core of the offense. After all, Leonard has not yet developed an offense.

In the GDP combination, when things are going smoothly, Tony Parker must be the one to watch.

In adversity, Duncan is the most stable.

In a desperate situation, it depends on the demon sword Ginobili, because he is a demon, and even he may not necessarily know what he will do next.

Now is the time for the Spurs to face adversity.

After returning from the game, Parker held the ball outside the three-point line on the right side. After directing traffic, Duncan got the opportunity to hit Crowder with his back.

And Nowitzki is being stuck aside by the big fat man Dior.

Parker's ball was passed to Duncan at a 45-degree angle outside the paint area on the right side in time.

Duncan just made a simple breakthrough fake move when he took the ball, and then threw the ball without even leaving the ground.

"boom"

"brush"

A standard 45-degree angle hit the board, and Duncan scored the Spurs' first goal of the game.

There is nothing Claude can do about this ball. This ball is really too plain and simple, and Duncan is more than ten centimeters taller than Claude.

When Duncan scored, Popovich smiled slightly, it must be me, Brother Dun, in one word: stable.

But soon, he stopped laughing, because the Mavericks played really well today.

Su Jiuyun's offense was more decisive than in the previous game, and coupled with his occasional off-ball movements, it became more difficult for the Spurs to catch him, and his shooting percentage also improved a lot.

Nowitzki also stabbed the Spurs from time to time, and the Japanese Spurs were unable to recover the point difference for a while.

Midway through the first quarter, Popovich replaced Ginobili.

In the past half quarter, Popovich finally understood the Mavericks' tactics. The Mavericks' defensive strategy was similar to the one he used in the previous game.

That is if you have the ability, let Tony Parker shoot me to death with mid- to long-range shots!
