Chapter 134: Mixed Defense

The dragon king still fell to the ground, rolled on the spot twice and wanted to make a shameful foul, but when he saw the referee's punishment, he forgot his original intention when he was excited, got up suddenly, stepped forward and asked the referee loudly: "He elbowed me, didn't you see it?" That's a clear foul, a malicious foul! ”

The Clippers fans immediately booed Bosh even harder, and the referee felt that Bosh had challenged his authority, and immediately added a T to the Dragon King, who sprayed his face, adding a technical foul.

Bosh was even angrier, and even took off his braces, ready to reason with the referee.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Raptors dragged the Dragon King to the sidelines, and if there was another T, he would be sent off properly, and Bosh might be banned from the league after the game.

Ji Guoyi slapped the schadenfreude next to him, or fanned the flames, the little fox felt that he had done a good job, and he should be able to give an account to the coach, and after celebrating this wonderful slam dunk with his teammates, he finally remembered to see his girlfriend.

Taylor Swift, who was also wearing his No. 9 jersey, saw Ji Guoyi looking over, waved the cheerleading stick in his hand, and cheered for his little boyfriend. But soon she was upset again, and the little British next to her was still making herself amorous, and Taylor Swift finally couldn't help it, and choked at Emma Watson and said, "Do you know the little fox?" ”

Although Emma Watson felt that the female fans around her were very rude, she still replied politely: "Yes, we know each other, is there any problem?" ”

Taylor Swift was asked now, and the embarrassing words ran to her lips but couldn't say it, after all, no matter how much she was excessive, she was unreasonable, and she had to take care of her own image when she was angry.

"No problem!" Taylor Swift said stiffly, and immediately turned his head away from the little British slut.

Emma Watson felt inexplicable, she had a keen eye, and saw Taylor Swift sitting in the front row with a famous brand, looking like she was either a celebrity or a rich lady. Strangely, I don't know why I can't get along with myself?

Ji Guoyi hit both free throws on the court, and the ball belonged to the Clippers.

This Yan dunk made Bosh start to be impatient, any star who has been famous for a long time will want to be exchanged for it if he is so provoked and humiliated by a rookie rookie on the court, and Bosh will not be an exception.

However, the Raptors attacked again, and the Clippers defended him with twin brothers. This is nothing, what is even more unfortunate is that Bosh, who mispredicted the Panda Hero's single defense ability, received a big hat from his brother under the basket soon after, which made him even more astringent, and the choice to shoot became unreasonable.

At the end of the second quarter, the score was 52:46, and the Clippers led by six points to end the first half.

Ji Guoqiu had 12 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks, Ji Guoyi 13 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, Artest 12 points, Thomas 6 points, and Garcia 6 points.

The Raptors' Chris Bosh had 13 points and four rebounds in the first half, Calderon had nine points, TJ Ford had eight points, Anthony Parker had eight points and Delfino had six points.

Jeff Van Gundy took the statistics for a long time at halftime, shook his head and said: "I found that the Italian champion played 15 minutes in the first half, and the number was 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 2 turnovers and 1 block. ”

Reggie Miller asked curiously, "Who is that cap?" ”

Magic Johnson joked: "You can't build Bosh, right?" ”

The three of them laughed after speaking, and the number of eggs in the half was 0, even if this champion was not a parallel import, at least he was a second goods.

The Raptors used the top pick to select this 0-egg center, and now it seems that it was a big mistake, Aldridge and Brandon Roy are much better than him, and Rajon Rondo and Rudy Gay now also seem to be showing All-Star potential, no matter which of these four is now much stronger than the Italian center, the Raptors chose a spaghetti man, which is really discerning.

The elder Dunleavy was very satisfied with the player's performance in the first half in the locker room, first complimented a few words, and then changed the conversation and asked, "Do you remember the defensive tactics we practiced recently?" ”

Ji Guoqiu's eyes lit up, he knew what the old Dunleavy was talking about, and recently the team's coaching staff has returned to defense after enriching several sets of offensive tactics for the team.

The Clippers' coaching staff, recently inspired by the Celtics in the East, has put together the Big Three this season, and the first thing they show is not flashy offense, but their solid defense.

The Celtics are now the best defensive team in the league, relying on a striking hybrid of man-to-man and zonal defense. At the same time, the Green Shirts with high personal tactical literacy can also switch defensive tactics at will according to the opponent on the field, and skillfully use joint defense and man-marking defense.

The Celtics' defensive system created by former Rockets assistant coach Thibodeau this season has allowed the Green Shirts' opponents to score only 87 points per game.

The Clippers' defense is also good, but Dunleavy Sr. always felt that the twins were not living up to their true potential, and their defense could have been better.

The NBA has allowed joint defense on the court since 2001, but most teams only play a few rounds when necessary, and the teams that have always used joint defense basically do not, and neither the Suns nor the current Celtics are really joint defense, but a hybrid defense.

The NBA's three-second zone and reasonable collision zone are the natural nemesis of joint defense, and under such rules, the middle will inevitably be exposed, and once you encounter Wade, Paul, Parker and other All-Stars with strong breakthrough ability, it is easy to be broken through the defense from the middle.

The Celtics have Garnett and the Spurs have Duncan, both of whom are defensive killers who can defend the middle by themselves, so the two teams play a mixed defense and can often use joint defense on the court against superstars like the Gorillas.

The Clippers now have Duncan Jr. + Garnett Jr., two big men who are not inferior to the No. 3 position in terms of defensive footsteps and speed, and what will happen if they play a hybrid defense similar to the Celtics, or play a joint defense on the court for a long time?

Old Dunleavy is excited to think about it, this kind of mixed defense that the team has been practicing during this time, and today against the Raptors, who are not too strong, you can just see how it works?

"In the second half, Brother Panda kept an eye on Bosh, and the others used zone defense, and whoever got the ball we pressed on. Everyone should pay attention to the help to make up for the leaks, move actively, and change the formation with the movement of the basketball, as long as we play this set of tactics well, we will definitely be able to enter the playoffs. ”

The Clippers players are all good defensive guys, whether it's Artest, Posey, Garcia or Black Parker, they all know what a good defense can bring them, and immediately responded to Dunleavy Sr.'s shout and responded loudly: "Defense...... Victory...... Champion ......"

In the second half, the Clippers attacked first, Artest cut to the basket and drew a foul, and two free throws extended the margin to eight points.

The Raptors attacked, and the Clippers quickly switched to defense.

Jeff Van Gundy saw the change in the Clippers at a glance, opened his mouth and said: "They changed formations, this is a regional defense?" ”

Reggie Miller and Magic Johnson are also fierce eyes, and they can also see that the Clippers' defensive formation is very different from the first half.

Bosh was stared at by Ji Guoqiu, which was nothing, and the same was true in the first half.

But Calderon, the point guard of the Raptors, immediately noticed the difference, the Clippers' formation formed a pinching trend against him, and he didn't feel much about dribbling outside the three-point line, but as soon as he entered the three-point line, the opponent's defense came like a tide, and it felt like defenders on all sides.

Calderon reacted quickly and immediately played the ball when he knew something was wrong, and Anthony Parker received the basketball on the wing.

The Clippers' defense moved quickly, "rattling" like waves and spilling towards Anthony Parker.

Anthony Parker stood outside the three-point line on the right wing, and as soon as he received the basketball, Ji Guoyi and Garcia all pounced, and the two of them together wrapped up the Raptors' point guard.

"Oops!"

Sam Mitchell of the Raptors immediately knew that the Clippers' defense was not good, and he knew best how many pounds and taels the Raptors players had.

Anthony Parker hurriedly passed the ball to his teammates under the two-man wrap-up, but the Clippers' defense had all shifted, waiting for the moment when he passed, and the prepared Black Parker reached out to cut off the pass, and the Clippers counterattacked......

The Clippers quickly turned to offense, Ji Guoqiu immediately put aside Bosh to join the counterattack, and the Clippers made three quick moves, and finally Garcia scored a layup.

With a score of 56:46, the Clippers attacked and defended, extending the score to double digits in just one round.
