Second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Hawks vs. the Wizards and the Cavaliers vs. the Bulls.

As soon as the East and West lineups came out, the next games were even more topical.

"The battle for the best three-pointer, Stephen Curry vs. Bruce!"

"Another matchup between the Bulls and James!"

"03 Bangyan vs. Black and White Two Bears!"

……

Before the game even started, it was already noisy.

For the Mavericks, other things are still far away, and the next opponent is the Warriors, who have won the limelight this year. The Warriors' starting lineup is very strong, and the bench is not weak, especially the offensive combination of the Splash Brothers, which has played all over the league and made many teams very troubled.

The Clippers led 3-1, and the next round of the series was the Clippers, but when the results came in, it was found that the opponent was the Warriors.

The opponent is the Warriors, which may not be easy to play.

The Clippers lineup has a very big flaw, but the Warriors don't, so it is difficult to have an absolute advantage in tactics when playing the Warriors.

Dallas Mavericks trainer.

Coach Carlisle looked very solemn:

"The next opponent is the Warriors, which a lot of people think is a weak team, but I have to say, the Warriors are more difficult to play than the Clippers, and if you play the Clippers, you can even paddle a little bit, but against the Warriors, it becomes very difficult. The next step is for everyone to focus. ”

"First of all, the defense, the Warriors' offense is very strong, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson shoot exactly the same three-pointers every game as we do, but they are two people, and you are four or five people, and we don't have any advantage in three-point shots."

"If anything, it's that we're hitting better."

"So, in this mortal battle, we have to do a good job of defense, and don't interfere with the defense of the shooting from the outside, and if they want to break through, then delay it a little, and leave the problem on the inside to Gobert, I believe he can do it well."

Gobert smiled, confident.

This season, Gobert has been very efficient on the inside, and he has the momentum of a generation of interior gates.

Coach Carlisle started by talking a lot about perimeter defense.

The Warriors, like the Mavericks, are very good at passing and cutting after outside covers, and Stephen Curry can shoot directly as long as he has a little space.

And give Curry a good level of breaking, a good dribble, and in this way, the difficulty of defense is greatly increased.

Coupled with Klay Thompson's attraction defence, this game is not easy to play.

"It's not a big problem on the defensive end, except for normal defense, just remember two points, their Green doesn't shoot well, if you have the chance, you can empty his three-point shot, and Barnes, his shooting is also inconsistent, as long as we cure Curry and Thompson first, we win more than half of it."

Coach Carlisle first set the tone for the ball emperor to defend well.

Pay attention to defense.

It's not a joke to defend to win championships.

It wasn't until the defense was finished that Carlisle began to say offense:

"I don't need to say much on offense, the Warriors' outside defense is flawed, lacking a very good defensive core, Klay Thompson has a good defensive switch, but you can find Curry to play, he can't withstand the impact of Rudy and Bruce, and the Warriors are weak inside, Eyre, Dirk can find a lot of opportunities, if you have the opportunity, you can score more offensive baskets."

Carlisle didn't say much on the offensive end.

The Mavericks' offense has been honed for a year and is strong enough.

According to the normal offensive play, the Warriors are not opponents, so there is no need to say much on the offensive end.

The Warriors' biggest flaw right now is the lack of a star who can be reliable on both ends of the floor, such as Rudy Gay or Andre Iguodala.

In this case, the Warriors' flaws are infinitely magnified.

On May 3, the second round of the playoffs began.

In the first game, the Mavericks take on the Warriors.

Both teams were friendly before the game, and Stephen Curry was known as a cute god this season, in addition to being very cute, the most important thing is that he has a high emotional intelligence.

Off the court, Curry has barely gotten into trouble.

Both teams were in harmony and focused on the game.

The competition has officially begun.

The two sides jumped the ball, Gobert dialed the basketball over, Qin Yang took the ball over the half court, and the Warriors instantly completed defensive tactics, this time it was Klay Thompson who defended Qin Yang.

Thompson was depressed in the first two seasons, and after Qin Yang's injury, Thompson was not taken seriously and was almost abandoned, and then he stepped up again after being traded to the Warriors.

As one of the Splash Brothers' combination this season, Klay Thompson has played perfectly.

Unlike Curry, Klay Thompson's defense is very strong, and he often acts as the offensive core of the defensive elite to protect the opponent, so it can only be Klay Thompson who defends Qin Yang.

Qin Yang used to be teammates with him, so he was very clear about Thompson.

In fact, the Warriors' outside defense, Qin Yang can't look down on it, Thompson has a strong defense, but the lateral speed is slow, and Barnes is the same.

The Warriors' perimeter defense isn't strong.

But in the playoffs, it's too stupid to shoot directly.

Qin Yang beckoned, Al Jefferson stepped forward to cover, the Warriors followed up quickly, Barnes completed the change of defense in an instant, and Qin Yang passed the ball to Rudy Gay.

But Rudy Gay already has Green on the side.

The Warriors' defense this season is not weak, among which Draymond Green has made a huge contribution, in today's small-ball tactics prevail, Draymond Green can almost switch five positions, which is very important, it can be said that without Green, the Warriors will be beaten into a sieve.

Rudy Gay took the ball, did not attack rashly, and passed the ball to Qin Yang.

Qin Yang is also very helpless, Cory Brewer's offense with the ball is too poor, and it is a big deal to meet Curry, otherwise it is a very good opportunity to play Curry alone.

But no one is perfect, and that's not the point.

At this time, Qin Yang raised the ball high and passed it to Al Jefferson, who misplaced Thompson.

Klay Thompson defended well, but ...... And Al Jefferson is clearly not of the same tonnage.

Al Jefferson was very skillful in getting stuck in position, turned around and received the basket after hitting a single with his back, and scored with ease.

Klay Thompson couldn't defend it.

If Al Jefferson meets Draymond Green or Bogut, Qin Yang will definitely not dare to give him a single like this, because the efficiency value is very low.

But after the misalignment, Al Jefferson didn't play too easily.

The Warriors were helpless.

Coach Cole stood next to him and didn't say a word.

This ball, there is no way.

The defects of the lineup are that there is no way to make up for it, and no tactics can solve it, Qin Yang's basketball quotient is too high, and the control of the occupation is also very good.

Green is on the outside, Cory Brewer runs to attract the defense, and Qin Yang is on the outside to attract the defense. Al Jefferson can play with ease and will.

It can't be helped.

A wicked point guard, that's how powerful it is.

A clever pass makes people helpless.
