NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal

Vol 2 Chapter 748: 5 Small Blowouts

The so-called “five minutes of death” first appeared in the original time and space in the 2015 finals g4. At that time, the Cavaliers once led the Warriors with a total score of 2:1.

As a result, after Kerr replaced center Bogte with Yin Godara as the starting lineup, the five squads really had a miraculous effect. The Warriors won three consecutive cities, and finally defeated the Cavaliers by a total score to win the championship!

In this time and space, perhaps because the Warriors were defeated by the Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Finals, Kerr estimated that he hadn’t thought of the five-small lineup at the time, or because the five-small lineup was still in its infancy, so the Warriors’ set of death five-small It appeared half a year later than Wang Zelin’s impression.

Unlike his teammates who looked puzzled, Wang Zelin was very aware of the power of the Warriors’ five small deaths. Whenever the Warriors encounter difficulties, they can always turn the tide, turn the crisis into peace, and turn the situation from a disadvantage to an advantage, and then win.

However, in addition to the dignified mood, he was more excited and excited.

The magic of the Death Five lies in their tactical core, that is, the offensive end requires players to keep running, shifting the ball and screening pick-and-rolls without the ball, so as to form an open shot opportunity or an empty cut layup.

But no matter how powerful tactics are, there are drawbacks. The disadvantage of the five minors is that there is too little support in the inside line, and Curry is easy to be used by opponents to use the call tactics to seek opportunities to beat the big and small. This is what many coaches of strong teams came up with. Break the five keys.

In later generations, as the five warriors were born and continued to harvest honors, they directly led to the arrival of the small-ball prosperous era, but also made many fans miss the once-big-ball prosperous era and the era of super centers and giants across the league.

Therefore, it is also said that the reason why the Warriors jumper team can rely on the five-small lineup for four years and three championships is due to the continuous lack of high-quality center talents. There are almost no dominant ones in the entire league, which sounds quite a bit. “When there are no heroes, Shuzi becomes famous”.

Of course, as a witness to the prosperity of the small ball later, Wang Zelin knew that the Warriors were worthy of the title of the master of the dynasty. The Warriors during the four-year Triple Crown period have the strength to win championships at any time in NBA history, especially Stephen Ku, the soul of the team. inside.

There is no doubt that Curry is not only a historical super giant, but also a perfect team leader. The Warriors led by him are destined to become the No. 1 enemy of the Blazers dynasty year.

Therefore, the thought of being able to compete with such a great player on the same stage made the blood in his chest boil.

Later, there was an argument similar to Guan Gong and Qin Qiong, that is, “If the death of the Warriors meets the Lakers with the peak of Shaquille O’Neal, which one has a better chance of winning?”

Now, Wang Zelin will personally reveal the answer.

…

Accompanied by a burst of doubts and boos from Oracle Arena, even the two on-site commentators were complaining and sarcastic, but the rookie coach lost his mind because of his backwardness.

Nima, take a closer look at what the **** is this lineup?

There wasn’t even a single person on the field who passed 2.03 meters! Is this a joke?

Or, the Warriors don’t plan to rebound!

Even if it was the “Seven-Second Whirlwind” promoted by the Suns of D’Antoni, the master of running and shooting, it was a lineup of big and small, with a peak “little overlord” to cover the bottom.

Even if the Heat came to the “new era basketball” approach that Mr. Lee called, there were several big and tall men to support it.

But the Warriors are now 2.03 meters apart from the newly replaced Harrison Barnes, and Thomson and Green are the tallest.

When the camera was given to the Warriors bench, people found that Kerr’s face was still full of confidence, as if the faint trick everyone said was actually a trick.

Unlike Kerr, when the camera was shown to the five-line lineup, it was the first time this lineup appeared. Even though Kerr had repeatedly emphasized it before the game, listening to the boos from the sky, Curry and his teammates became more and more uncertain. .

beep~~~

The referee’s whistle blew and the game continued in the second half.

Warriors ball.

Curry broke the ball at the top of the arc, and Thompson, who cut high from the right, then moved Yin Godala from the bottom corner on the right.

Are you going to vote three?

No, the ball continues to rotate and passes back to Green at the top of the arc on the right.

“Snapped!”

Another large-scale transfer, and Curry caught the ball in the left bottom corner.

After transferring the ball in a large range in a row, an opportunity finally appeared. Curry received the ball and raised his hand for a three-pointer.

“Shh-!”

The crisp sound of passing through the net spread to all around.

At 52:61, the difference between the two teams returned to single digits.

Move the ball so fast!

Wang Zelin couldn’t help but sigh.

The Warriors really strengthened the mobility of the ball and people, and the number of stops was controlled very little, almost making the ball moving.

To be honest, it’s really amazing to be able to do this. If you switch to another team to play like this, you have to stop before you dazzle your opponent’s defense line.

In all fairness, the entire West, no, it should be said that in addition to the Warriors, only the Spurs can achieve such an efficient and high-speed ball rotation in the entire league.

Trail Blazers attack.

Putting on the picture suddenly becomes weird.

Without Bogt, the Warriors are now left with only Draymond Green to play alone.

Wang Zelin received the ball in a low position and singled against Green, and pushed Green sideways. The first time he exerted his strength, Green took two or three steps back.

“Is it my illusion? This guy’s power seems to be more terrifying than last season!”

Greenmont circled. The main defender in the first half was Bogte. He was only in charge of assisting defense, so he hadn’t noticed anything unusual, but as soon as the second half came up, he realized that he couldn’t even stand Wang Zelin.

Green, who could not stop the impact, could only watch Wang Zelin put the basketball into the basket easily.

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It must be because of my physical decline…”

When serving the ball, Green muttered in a low voice, and his eyes once again burst into a light called self-confidence.

From being a second-round pick to the current annual salary of tens of millions, Green naturally has some shining points.

For example, strong psychological qualities.

It can also be said that almost every player in the history of the NBA who can get out of the low draft has such excellent qualities.

Therefore, Green quickly put the shadow of the dunk behind him and quickly plunged into the rhythm of the game.

The reason why the Warriors chose to trade David Lee this summer and righting Green was inseparable from Kerr’s tactical needs.

In order to repay Cole’s “goodness of support”, Green is now focused on repayment, thinking of letting Cole end in victory.

In any case, the Warriors must win today!

After halftime, Green took the initiative to help Curry pick-and-roll, Lillard was blocked, and Curry dribbled to the right, but soon after making up the defense, Aldridge came over.

In the face of Aldridge, Curry originally planned to show off a small game, but Green roared while picking and rolling: “Andre, don’t be stunned, let Stephen pick and roll!”

After being shouted like this, Yin Godala didn’t care that he was suspected of being offended, and hurriedly moved over to the pick-and-roll.

Curry continued to use the pick-and-roll, and as soon as he entered the three-point line, he found himself surrounded by excellent passing opportunities.

In the current situation, just like when the Warriors usually practice according to Kerr, they can always find a lot of gaps.

The bottom corner, the left side, and the top of the arc, it seems that except for the penalty area where the Trail Blazers No. 36 sits, the rest of the tm is neutral.

This tactic is really awesome!

In the first actual battle, Curry was surprised by Cole’s talent. Fortunately, he did not forget his own position as the No. 1 position.

Although the scoring and organization division of positions 1 and 2 are becoming more and more difficult, and there are more and more offensive 1 positions like Curry in the league, he is the main 1 position after all, and his organizational instinct and talent are still the same. some.

This season, Curry averaged 6.8 assists per game, ranking 11th in the active assists list.

Otherwise, he would not have found so many teammates vacancies.

Just find a direction and pass it, and then Thompson’s perimeter strikes a knife and falls at a 45-degree angle to the left…

“Shh-!”

The three-pointer went through the heart and the Warriors once again scored the Blazers’ basket.

At 55:63, we got 8 points all at once.

On the sidelines, Kerr saw his new tactics and helped the team score two three-pointers in a row.

“The Warriors must win!”

Although the current lineup of the Warriors is too strange, he can’t stand the good response that he can see to the naked eye as soon as he comes up, and the fans cheering voices once again appeared in the auditorium of Oracle Arena.

In competitive sports, victory always reigns supreme!

As long as you can win, no one else has anything to say.

Two three-pointers came down, and the eyes of the home fans looking at Kerr and the strange lineup on the field gradually softened.

tnnd, it seems this Cole still has two brushes, no wonder he dares to be so confident.

Trail Blazers attack.

It was Wang Zelin who came by himself, played strong in the low post, encountered a double-team, turned around and hooked, and slammed the basketball into the basket.

With such a difficult goal, Yin Godala and Green could only shake their heads and sigh. They had done their best.

The Warriors strike again.

This time, Curry did not hold the ball, but used his movement to lead the opponent’s perimeter defense. Green made a few simple transmissions with his teammates at the top of the arc. The Warriors had an open position again, but Barnes, who had just been replaced, failed to shoot. Enter.

This season, Barnes has had average luck. Although there are no major injuries, he has been suffering from minor injuries. Since the start of the game, it has been on and off. He just twisted his wrist a few days ago, so for tonight’s comeback, Kerr did not give him Arranged too much time to play, causing him to feel a little cold now.

“Snapped!”

After Wang Zelin grabbed the rebound, he wanted to find an opportunity to pass a long pass when it was raining, but suddenly found that the Warriors had all returned to defense.

The speed and uniformity are astounding!

You must know that under normal circumstances, no matter how high the tactical literacy of the team, it is impossible to defend so fast, at least there must be a big man behind.

According to media statistics, the Blazers’ retreat speed is the fastest among the active starting lineups. This is mainly because of Wang Zelin’s pervert, the speed attribute of over 80 points is almost catching up with the normal outside line.

But at the moment, all the Warriors have refreshed people’s imagination with their extremely fast defense speed.

Is this the advantage of playing small, smart, and fast lineups?

It seems that the Warriors’ five-small play is not without merit.

At the same time, the coaching staff of the teams that did not play that day were all watching the focused battle between the Blazers and the Warriors in front of the TV.

Especially the coaching staff of the western team, not only sent scouts to record the details of the game, but also as the game deepened, the tactics of the Trail Blazers and the Warriors kept switching, and the old men in front of the TV also repeatedly deduced various responses to the Warriors in their hearts. and the Blazers’ tactical changes.

Among them, the Spurs coach Tiantuan is of course indispensable.

“Amy, do you think the Warriors’ small lineup can help them beat the Blazers?”

In the coaching staff’s office, Simavic looked at his disciple Amy Uduka.

Uduka thought for a while, then shook his head slightly: “It’s difficult, this lineup has too obvious drawbacks, but the Blazers have the first center Wang Zelin in active service.”

“Oh, that’s right!” Sima Weiqi was thoughtful, and then saw another disciple, “James, what about you? Tell me what you think.”

The James in his mouth is naturally not LeBron James, but James Borrego, who became the assistant coach of the former Hornets of the Pelicans in 10 years and returned to the coaching staff of Simavic this year.

By the way, this guy is also the later head coach of the Hornets.

And ahead of Uduka, who became the Celtics head coach.

I have to say that the Spurs coaching staff is indeed worthy of the reputation of the “Heaven Team”. The reason why the Spurs have been able to maintain their championship-winning strength for more than ten years is not only due to the core framework of gdp, but also thanks to an excellent coaching team.

After being named, James Borrego also expressed his views.

…

…

Back at Oracle Arena.

Eight minutes have passed since the third quarter. With the advantages of being small, smart and fast in the new lineup, the Warriors’ rhythm is getting faster and faster. In addition, the Blazers have difficulty adapting to the rhythm of the surrounding games for a while, and the trend on the field gradually Taken by the Warriors.

After most of the quarter, the Warriors made 6 of 11 three-pointers from the outside, and cooperated with the occasional cut from the bottom, so that they not only filled in the 12 points behind in the first half, but also surpassed the Blazers by 5 points in one fell swoop~www .readwn.com~ Seeing that the situation became more and more uncontrollable, Coach Terry got up in a hurry and called for a timeout.

During this period, the Warriors players continued to disrupt the Blazers’ defense through false pick-and-rolls and pass-through **** on the court.

Coach Terry is also aware of this, so this time out, he intends to let the players use fake delays and let down the routine restrictions.

After all, the Trail Blazers have a penalty area like Wang Zelin. As long as the Warriors players dare to cut through the air, they will definitely not have good juice.

To solve the problem of the inside line, the team is vigorously strengthening the defense and pressure on the Warriors’ new tactical ball carrier, that is, pinching the main controller Curry, so that he can reduce the chance of making three-pointers.

In Coach Terry’s view, most of the Warriors’ offense is driven by Curry. As long as Curry is restricted and Wang Zelin’s dominance in the interior, the Warriors’ offensive efficiency will inevitably decline in the long run. A lineup can be self-defeating.

But, is it really as simple as he imagined?
