Chapter 325: The End of the Road! (b)

Where is the mystery?

“DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE! ”

The fans chanted defensive slogans throughout the game, and the game was already near the midway point of the fourth quarter, 82-98, and the Kings trailed by 16 points.

The Thunder attacked, and the Kings defended quickly enough this time, and the landing position was successful, and every player came to their own defensive position, feeling a little at ease.

Fortunately, it's a positional battle, so it won't be brushed up!

The Kings have been beaten by the Thunder's endless counterattacks, and would rather slow down the tempo and risk that they won't be able to fight back themselves, but also control the Thunder's offensive and defensive transitions.

And in order to deal with the impact of the Thunder's outside star players and curb Wei Shaoshun's explosive touch, Westphale also made a relatively bold choice.

"Two-one-two joint defense!"

The commentator exclaimed, and the fans carefully looked at the situation on the court, and the Kings really put on a joint defensive formation!

"That's right!"

In the barrage in the live broadcast room, a great god immediately jumped out and said with appreciation: "Thunder's attack is very strong, but it's not that strong." Their offense is very scattered, there are almost no detailed tactics, basically just a few running methods, and it is not difficult to judge the basic direction. Whether it's covering or air cutting, the purpose of all their offensive positional battles is very simple, that is, to hand over the ball to Wei Shao or Durant! ”

That's right, if there's any flaw in Brooks, who led the Thunder to the best performance in team history, it must be an extremely scarce reserve of offensive tactics.

Although the Thunder have a rare talent, they really don't need to run too many complicated tactics on the offensive end. But Brooks is a little too poor in terms of offensive tactical reserves. The Thunder's running position will basically come to a standstill after Durant or Wei Shao catches the ball and opens up the space. It will even give many fans a kind of "why don't you run halfway through the tactics?" "The feeling comes.

The basis for doing so is naturally the super strength of the three young men of the Thunder team, who are extremely strong and able inside and out.

But no matter how strong Durant is, no matter how strong Wei Shao is, no matter how strong Harden is, they are not James, and there is no way to really bring their own system.

Durant's offensive power is explosive and his strategy is good, but his ability to create space for his teammates with the ball is not enough, and his positioning is more of a pure scorer and killer.

Wei Shao's impact is unparalleled in the world, I am afraid that only the peak Rose and Iverson have a fight, but he is slightly reckless, and the selection of the ball is not delicate enough, resulting in him not being able to become a real master of control.

Harden's ability to control the court and basketball IQ are very good, his body is strong, and his ability to tear up space one-on-one is also very good. However, his lateral movement was too slow, the small area of detail ball was handled very well, and the wide range of transfers and long passes were not yet at their peak, and there was no way to affect the whole game.

Such a combination of three young people, if a coach with sufficient offensive tactical reserves is given to lead the team, such as Zhuge Vic, Carlisle and other tactical encyclopedias, I am afraid that it will become a BUG team in the history of the league, invincible.

Unfortunately, Brooks was never a master.

"Bang, bang, bang"

Wei Shao dribbled back and forth and tried to break through twice, but he couldn't succeed, and took a big step back to the free throw line, while retreating to pull the space, he was a little enthusiastic.

…… I'll pull it!

"Rub!"

Seeing that Durant had no chance, Harden was still sitting off the court, Wei Shao didn't care about it, and suddenly took off with a dry pull, and opened his hand to make a super flat arc jumper.

"When"

Finally striking iron.

“…… The Kings have good rebounding protection, a good opportunity, and they can brush the counterattack!! ”

"Whoosh——!

Cousins rebounded, and the Kings had a great opportunity in front of him, and his cousin passed the ball to Evans, who took a step up to receive the ball at the top of the arc, felt the defensive pressure of Wei Shao behind him, and turned around.

“…… Bang! ”

Then he pulled back under his crotch, and Wei Shao's body exploded and followed every step, but he exerted too much force, and he followed a little too much.

"Bang bang bang!"

Evans, dribble breakthrough successful!

"Beautiful! Crisp and clean! ”

Washed away the lead, Evans cut down on fancy dribbling options and was able to get past Wei Shao. Ibaka on the wing had already returned to the basket, and Evans looked up to see a big blind head on the right side sneaking up to the frontcourt.

Transmit!

With a "whoosh", the basketball came out instantly, and Gu Yu on the wing was just a big step away from the three-point line, Evans's pass was advanced, Gu Yu fed the ball, and had to accelerate forward and jump a little.

If this time is in place, Gu Yu will be able to shoot directly after receiving the ball.

At the moment when the basketball was about to start, the figure flickered.

“…… Syllable! ”

Steals!

"Again, it's Safrosa again!! God! Safrosa is a god today!! Every pass to the hairstyle brother, he can predict it in place!! ”

In the shouts of the commentator, Safrosa completed the steal again, and the basketball was sent to the frontcourt, and Durant just returned to the center circle and immediately turned around when he saw this.

"Smack"

Receiving the ball steadily, Durant paused, Garcia had already chased after him, but before he could gain a foothold, Durant suddenly changed direction and started with force.

"Good ball......! Durant to the top of the arc in the middle circle, Wei Shao came back to the wing under the basket, do you want to give ......? Didn't give! Durant made a direct three-point shot...... Middle!!! ”

“YEEEEEEEEEEEES——!!!”

After completing the three-point chase, Durant stretched the difference to 19 points, and the Kings were hanging by a thread!

"Beautiful! If you don't find a chance in positional warfare, you will make a fuss from counterattacks! Kevin Durant, possessed by the killing god, three points of cold-blooded arrows! ”

"Westphal ......"

"One more round."

Carlil felt it was time to call a timeout, but before he could say anything, Westfale rejected it outright.

This is the hardest time, but it will also be the most important time for you to grow.

Westphal knew that there would be no way to reverse the decline by relying only on the king's stunned youths themselves. But as a professional footballer, playing even a second extra under such tremendous pressure can be an extremely rewarding exercise.

If the king wants to regain his land, he must bear the weight of this crown.

"Huh!"

On the offensive end, Cousins finally chiseled a chance under the basket and carried Perkins' defense with one hand to put the basket to the basket, which was about to stop the bleeding.

But looking back, the Thunder faced the King's joint defense for the second time and found a way to crack it.

“…… Sou! ”

On the strong side, Westbrook and Durant crossed the run, Wei Shao went to the bottom corner of Durant to the top of the arc, and Ibaka gave a two-way cover in the middle, and Wei Shao took advantage of the moment when the three crossed and passed the ball high to Durant.

It's a little higher......!

The pass was a little drifting, and in order to get the ball over Ibaka's head, Wei Shao couldn't make a move.

This is a good opportunity.

"Rub!"

Evans jumped straight forward and reached for the ball.

Although this is already the top of the arc, it is not supposed to be defended by Evans, but this opportunity is too rare to miss out......

"Smack"

Above Evans's head, a long arm that he couldn't reach anyway, reached out.

The basketball was snatched away, and Evans was still in the air, unable to adjust his body to follow.

"I'll ......!"

Gu Yu, sprint!

"Defend against Durant!!"

Fans knew that Durant was powerful near the top of the arc, and in the exclamation, Gu Yu hurried to the position and was about to open his hands to defend.

“…… Sou! ”

Kevin Durant, one-handed pass.

In the bottom corner, Safrosa waited for a long time.

Safro makes a three-point shot from the bottom corner...... In the middle of the middle of the middle!! 20 points difference! ”

“…… TIME-OUT! ”

Westphale couldn't sit still and got up to call a timeout, and the Kings players all gasped and returned to the bench with an unhappy face.

“…… ! ”

As soon as he sat down, Gu Yu scolded, slammed the towel in his hand on the empty chair on the side, and said unhappily: "What kind of medicine did Safrosa take today?" Why is the defensive position so strange! ”

"Like our joint defense, they're changing their tactics."

Westphaal knew that Gu Yu was in a desperate situation, and it was impossible for the king to catch up with the score difference by relying on conventional tactics at the moment. There is only one hope for victory

That's Gu Yu!

"Is there a great god to explain, wasn't the king's joint defense quite good just now? Why was it pulled to 20 points by the Thunder all of a sudden?? ”

In the live broadcast room, some fans were very puzzled.

"Let me tell you about it."

Sure enough, a great god came forward and explained: "Let's sum it up first: there is no problem with the king's defensive tactics, and it is the Thunder's defense that is doing well, so it can open up the difference." ”

"Don't just jump to conclusions! Let's talk about the great god carefully?? ”

JR is not happy, a reminder.

"The Kings adjusted their defense a little bit late, and it could have been a chance, and it was completely late in time."

The great god said patiently: "What the king just took was a two-one-two joint defense, which simply means arranging two people on the upper line, who are responsible for the space of about 20 degrees in the front and back of 45 degrees on both sides, and lock the wings on both sides. A person stands near the free throw line in the middle, cruising back and forth, similar to the role of a midfielder and scavenger in football, controlling the middle area from the top of the arc to the inside. ”

"The two big men are on both sides of the penalty area to form a three-dimensional defensive line. In this way, no matter how strong the opponent's ability is, it is inevitable to go through three toll cards in the process of breakthrough, and if you break through this road in the middle, it will basically be blocked. ”

The great god explained in simple terms, JRS understood it, and someone sent a barrage and said: "This defense is really aimed at the Thunder's offensive system, it's a good choice!" ”

"That's right, but ......"

The great god continued: "But the 212 joint defense has a strong control over the middle, and the locking effect on the two wings is also good, and the penalty area is even more leaky, except for the bottom corners of both sides, there is almost no defense. For most superstar-driven teams, this strategy works. It's just that the Thunder have Safrosa as a corner master......"

That's how Durant's three-pointer from the bottom corner of Safrosa came about.

Other than that

"The Thunder's defense was too targeted, especially Safrosa, and the adjustment was in place today. You may not have noticed, and even I have some doubts, that the hairstylist himself has not noticed this. ”

The great god continued: "If he can't realize this and adjust accordingly, then this game, the king will lose ......!" ”
