Chapter 491: Crucial Play
Kings practice ground.
Just after practicing his shot, Cousins took a newspaper and read it:
"The Kings have been surprising this season, knocking out the favorite championship team Thunder in the playoffs, but in terms of strength, the Kings are clearly not a very reassuring team, and it will be difficult for the Kings to win against the Spurs."
"And in this year's finals, neither the Celtics nor the Heat are clearly comparable to the Kings."
"Playoff experience and championship temperament are crucial in the playoffs, and that's why the Kings can beat the Thunder."
"What the hell is nonsense!"
Cousins threw down the newspaper, indignant.
The other players were laughing at each other, but David West was calm.
Qin Yang was also very calm when he saw this scene, and after Cousins vented, he said:
"DeMarcus, in fact, this kind of thing, there is no need to care, TNT experts naturally have their way to consider, the regular season record, the team's performance are all references, the Heat and Spurs have a better record than us, but that's all, they are just experts, and we will participate in the game."
"Only we can decide whether the game will be won or lost. The Thunder are all gone, and I don't think the Spurs are going to cause us any problems, the only opponent is the Heat. ”
Qin Yang's mentality is very stable.
Or although there are only three seasons, but with the virtual training ground, Qin Yang has played twelve seasons of competition.
This kind of experience allows Qin Yang to face many problems.
The Spurs won't be the opponent.
The first game only starts on May 25, so the Kings have plenty of time to set up their tactics before then.
The Spurs are a tactical powerhouse, and the Kings must be mindful of this.
During the tactical training, Coach Van Gundy made a special arrangement:
"It's going to be a tough game, it's going to be harder than you think, the GDP team is old, but they're experienced, so don't be delusional about beating the Spurs in waves, they have a lot of resilience and keep running to find our defensive flaws. Everyone has to be patient on the defensive end, not rushed, not panicked. ”
"On the offensive end, Bruce, you have to work harder."
Qin Yang nodded.
The Kings are a team that plays as a team, but the Spurs are even more so, and it's unrealistic to rely on tactical movement to achieve a comeback.
Therefore, the Kings' tactics are simple.
Playing against the advantage.
The Spurs interior are Duncan, DeJuan Blair and Dio. Of the three, Duncan is older and not as fast and reflexes as before, and the other two are flawed.
In this case, the Kings are not difficult to play.
Before the game, the Celtics had already played a game against the Heat, and James met Paul Pierce and finally avenged the grudge of the year.
The original Celtics Big Three pinned James to the ground and beat him fat.
The immature James meets Paul Pierce and is fully crushed.
But a few years later, James met Pierce and completely ran over him, not giving Pierce any chance, and the Heat won without any suspense.
Celtic are no match.
"I think it's time for us to face the next opponent, the Spurs are a strong team and we need to pay special attention." James said this after the game.
Wade and Bosh are more or less the same thing.
GDP strength is very strong, with tacit understanding, and Stephen Jackson and Leonard have joined this year, the Spurs are very strong and are important opponents for the Heat.
The Heat Big Three are arrogant.
But after that, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and the Shoulder Dragons scored 20+ points each, teaching the Big Three not to be too arrogant on the road.
The Celtics were too resilient, and the two teams battled in the fourth quarter, taking advantage of several mistakes from the Heat to win the game.
In this case, the media is generally bullish on the Spurs.
Before the game, Qin Yang was interviewed.
Qin Yang: "The Spurs are not an easy team to play against, they are strong, resilient, they know how to play at critical moments, they have the best power forward in NBA history, Tim Duncan, Ginobili, Tony Parker and others, playing against them, of course there will be pressure. ”
Qin Yang is very low-key.
But Tim Duncan was also very low-key when he was interviewed:
"The Kings are a strong team, stronger than expected, a lot of people only see their regular season record, but no one sees that Bruce has played a short time this season, never fully exploded, and the Thunder are not opponents at all in those games where Bruce broke out."
"That's right, our team's biggest opponent is Bruce Qin, lock him up, and we'll win half of it."
Popovich:
"I think it's going to be a great series, and I'm excited to see where Bruce Qin has got."
Whether it is Popovich or Tim Duncan, they are very jealous of Qin Yang.
That was the only news for the Kings before the game.
Los Angeles Sports News reported:
"The game between the Kings and the Spurs, I think it mainly depends on the play of Bruce, and if Bruce can disrupt the Spurs on the offensive end, then the victory of the Kings is expected. Conversely, the Spurs have a good chance of winning the game. ”
All the experts and fans focused on Qin Yang for the game, which made Qin Yang a little surprised.
Number 24.
"Don't you really need me to accompany you?"
Lily stood in front of the house. This house was just bought by Qin Yang. It doesn't occupy a lot of land, it's not a mansion, but it's very warm.
Qin Yang carried a small bag and prepared to go to San Antonio, the two places are not very far away, but this round of the series is crucial.
"Don't worry, when I sweep them out 4-0, and then win the championship early, let's go on a tour."
Qin Yang said confidently, took the bag and left.
If the experts knew about this, they would definitely be stupid.
On the 25th, in the first game of the NBA Western Conference Finals, the San Antonio Spurs hosted the Kings.
San Antonio is a small stadium, there are not many fans, and the annual profit is also very small, the key is that the fans here are relatively normal.
That's right, it's normal.
Fans of other teams, when they encounter hostile players, start yelling and screaming, trying to scare the opponent's ass and pee, and play abnormally.
But Spurs fans are more flat.
On the one hand, the Spurs' style of play is relatively monotonous, with little passionate play, and on the other hand, the core of the Spurs, Tim Duncan, and coach Popovich are the same kind of people, who never respond to fans for the sake of playing well.
Since Duncan entered the league, he has been a stone Buddha, playing a board shot at 45 degrees.
Steady as a dog!
