Chapter 741: The Strength of the Other Party!
When the game reached 2:2, it really made the media start to get restless! I thought about 4:0! Didn't show up! Could it be that the Nets want to win them first and then beat them 4-2 on the same road as the Cavaliers?!
Don't think about it, the tickets for Oracle Arena at this time are long gone!
The tactics used by the Nets in front of them are estimated to have been thoroughly studied by the Warriors! The worse thing is the execution of the players. Chen still doesn't have much to say about the execution of the Golden State Warriors players. In this way, the idea is more obvious, and with the previous style of play, the Warriors can basically win, and then they may only be one step away from the championship!
"I'm not going to tell who's going to start, so you'd better be prepared" What does the manager mean by that? Gave up? Some players suddenly thought of this and immediately dismissed the year he had just had.
Looking at Chen's words and his state, it doesn't mean to give up the game. But what is he going to do? In previous games, everyone had learned Chen's style of changing tactics frequently, so after thinking about it at this time, he felt that he couldn't figure out what he was going to do, so he gave up thinking about it.
In fact, not long after this game was played, the players of the Nets team had some different ideas in their hearts. Jeremy Lin, Mozgov and Crabbe, Rose, including Garnett, are all excited!
The most surprising thing here is Kevin, who considers himself lucky. As soon as I came back to play, I met a team that could make it to the finals! His original intention was that there was no big possibility that he would play with the team for a few years anyway, and then he would be able to make some money.
For Garnett, making money isn't really that important. It's the feeling of being back on the field. He also saw this idea after Iverson's return, but after talking to Ray Allen and Pierce, neither of them had any intention of coming back now.
In a few years' time, times will change in the NBA, unless there are particularly good players on the team. And now Chen feels that another group of players are basically about to retire. In other words, a new era in the NBA is coming!
Check out this year's playoffs! Timberwolves, Pacers, Nets, 76ers, Rockets, Thunder and more! They are now the team in the league that will soon be remembered!
Someone once asked if Wei Shao needed another teammate to help? As a result, many fans and even the media have given an answer, no need! And in this case, they now have the league's super forward player Pickle Pepper joining!
And the Indiana Pacers, who had just left, and everyone thought they were about to sink for a few years, suddenly rushed into the top eight in the East! After George left, it seemed that Oladipo and Turner were fulfilled all at once!
The Rockets' posture in recent years is estimated that the Warriors are still more vigilant! The Rockets, the top three favorites in the West, are already in second place in the voting! Spurs are in third place!
Among the teams in the East, the Nets and the 76ers have rushed the most in recent years! Garnett can basically know if you think about and look at some of the records of the Nets' games in previous years. How did Brooklyn make it to the playoffs when the players were generally not in good shape!
And they also lost López in recent seasons! At present, the players in the league that fans think are good, Embiid, Turner, Porzingis, Lopez, etc. And in some years, Embiid, López and Antetokounmpo have a higher voice!
The Nets did this the same way the Heat gave up on Butler! The team is going to make a change in the main force. And so far, Mozgov's ability to play is not as good as expected. It's still at the level of blue-collar workers. The Nets' guards are more eye-catching.
But at present, because of this situation, Mozgov is still regarded as the main center forward by the team! He and Kevin are still okay to defend on the Nets' interior. Next season? Chen doesn't want to think about it yet, let's spend this season first.
On the Nets, in general, the pressure is not very high. Even if they lose to the Warriors in the Finals, it's nothing. After going back, there are still fans who are welcome! And they have also broken history!
The Warriors are different, and the pressure is significantly higher than that of the Nets. Besides, the other party is still tied with them now! It's really uncomfortable for them.
The Eastern Conference is still quite fierce in the playoffs this year! And the Nets finally had the last laugh!
With all the focus on the Celtics and Cavaliers, they're now working on Brooklyn. However, in the game, it was also found that the current ability of the players, the Warriors are a little struggling. Especially that Williamson!
Some people in the outside media call him "Little James". This product is a bit of a young version of James!! Although Chen didn't do that, the Warriors thought that if he played the full four quarters, he probably wouldn't be tired!
And in this case, they have two more players, Garnett and Rose. And the players on the field are still playing according to their boss's wishes! The players are good, and the coach's tactical style of play is also unclear for them!
Chen is indeed bolder sometimes. His idea is that you can't just play with those few sets of tactics and so the team! Observe the opposing team's state on the spot, the next move of the opposing coach and some other situations to adjust the team to deal with the opposing team!
For the players in the team, if it were another team, it would be a good tactic, but it might not have a good effect. Because Chen has a good relationship with the players, and the players are willing to listen to his assignments, he can still get his expected results on the whole.
In general, this is true. Compared with the average team or the team that has a bad season, it is quite smooth when it comes to using the Chen change formation. But when you meet a strong team, a super team, etc., there are a lot more plays, observations and variables at once.
"Pay attention to the other party's cooperation and cut off the other party's connection as much as possible! Then as soon as we get the ball, we burst into points! Don't give them too many chances! Cole said this with a serious expression.
It was only after the manager went out that the players relaxed a bit. Everyone talked a lot together, and they were still relatively relaxed in their state. When it's time to finally go out, West gathers everyone together!
"We have the top players that the whole league wants!! We have some of the best coaches in the league! We're on this team! Believe that tonight's victory belongs to us!! ”
At this time, everyone's hands were put together, and after the excited words of several players, everyone immediately pressed down! West's value at this time is also reflected! His prestige in the team is still not low! And he can improve and adjust the team's morale and condition!
At the same time, he is also a calm player! When I usually train, I will give some guidance to people like Green, Bell, and Jones. The players will listen carefully to what he has to say. Because everyone respects him! A few years ago, he gave up a big contract and only took a few million annual salaries with the Warriors to go with the team!
The team needs to have players like that in the squad as well. The names of the Warriors players are now being shouted in the sky above Oracle Arena!
Some fans made championship trophies today, although some of the cardboard drawings were a little sorry. But it still represents the inner voice of the fans at this time.
"Coach, are you mistaken, or ......," Jonathan said with some uncertainty as he looked at Chen at this time.
"Make no mistake, it's not just a few people who can win a game. I believe you don't just have this ability," Chen said to Jonathan very naturally.
The two of them went out at the end. Chan is talking about Jonathan's stats in the playoffs. So far, he has only averaged 2.3 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game in the playoffs. Jefferson had 9.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists!
When I heard what the coach said to myself, I didn't know what it was like. In the finals, Jonathan felt like he was basically on the bench. It wasn't very good against the Warriors either.
But the only team that can compete with the Warriors is Williamson, who plays well at the No. 3 position! Jonathan, who came off the bench, was thinking about him not playing too much, but now the situation has changed.
If the Nets want to change again, they will have to find a way to do it with Jonathan. After all, Jonathan is the one who can score well on the front line. Jefferson saw in the game against the Warriors that he was basically completely limited by the Warriors!
At this time, Jefferson's main purpose is to let him go to the guard to defend, and the guard can score more or less.
Kerr frowned when he saw the Nets' lineup. In his opinion, the similarity or consistency of Brooklyn's lineup from previous games is a good thing for the Warriors. But today's lineup still has a lot of changes!
The Nets' starters today are Mozgov, Garnett, Jonathan, Jeremy Lin, Jefferson! Shouldn't Williamson and Rose be brought up? The center and the big forward Chen still haven't changed, and the team's organization has asked Jeremy Lin to do it.
This attempt is still relatively bold, but in Chen's opinion, it can only be done! Chan's ultimate hope is Williamson, Jonathan and Jefferson, all three of whom can get good numbers. In that case, the Nets may be able to score a few more points overall. And these scores are still quite important to them!
Today's Warriors lineup is Pachuria, Green, Bell, Curry and Thompson. From this it is clear that they are also going to put a lot of effort into their defense.
It's game on! Pachulia took the lead and passed the ball to Curry, who jumped straight up and hit a three-pointer in the frontcourt! Lin took Jonathan's serve over half-court. Garnett takes his pass and throws it to score!
Green yelled at Bell with some anger. It seems that the other party didn't come over in time to help defend it. The Warriors are in serious form. This also made Chen a little worried. Can today's game be like the first round win over the Cavaliers?
Thompson quickly received Bale's pass and immediately went into the net with a three-point hollow! The movements are so natural and smooth! 6:2! Lin slowly went to the front court, Jonathan took the basketball and saw Bale coming over right away, and then used his rhythm to stagger the opponent and immediately rushed to the goal, and was directly slapped by Green and fanned the ball away!
After Curry got the basketball, he jumped up before he could dribble a few steps, and hit the three-point board into the basket!! 9:2! It was like the opening was about to end. The Warriors are very fast, and the Nets feel a strong sense of pressure at this time!
Jefferson dribbled to the frontcourt, Lin took the basketball and passed Thompson after a pull-up jumper that Pachulia got the ball and passed to Bale. The latter quickly went to the front court and passed the ball to Green, and in the face of no defense, Green dunked with both hands to complete the score! 11:2!
Jeremy Lin had just taken over the basketball, and Chen was about to take a timeout. As soon as the game started, the opponent scored 11 points! And now it's not more than 2 minutes! It seems that after the last game, the Warriors were really stimulated!
"There's a bit of a change in the style of play, the defender has to be on the breaking end, and both Crabbe and Jefferson can play the game. Cooperate a little less, don't fight with the other party. Their defense is still good right now. Jonathan, Crabbe can both make a quick burst on the outside! And when there are not many opportunities, they find a way to pass the ball to Mozgov and Garnett......"
After coming back, the other party did not make a substitution. The Nets replaced Jeremy Lin with Crabbe. After Jonathan got the basketball, he hesitated a little, jumped up and took the three points he wanted, and was fanned out by Bell!
This time, Green still feels more satisfied. Thompson quickly got the basketball next to him and then glanced back and hit a three-point shot in the frontcourt! 14:2! It's starting to rain three points on the Warriors' side!
And the Nets couldn't open the situation for a long time. Jefferson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and was roughly dragged down by Green after passing Curry and Bale! Mozgov couldn't see it well and immediately hugged Jefferson!
This action is still very dangerous! Jefferson fell to the ground with his body crooked in the air! But he was also angry, and got up and ran to Green!
"Hey, buddy! What game are you on? What kind of competition are you in? Mozgov hugged Jefferson and said to him.
"I don't care about XXX, I want him to look good!!" Jefferson shouted at that end!
"Let's see who wants to look good in the end! Are you coming?! "Green is being pulled by three Warriors players!
The referees all went over to see the situation. In the end, both men were given a technical foul each. Jefferson stood at the free throw line and made 1 of 2 free throws! Garnett went to the sidelines to serve to Russell, who had just come on.
For the current game, Kevin is still relatively calm. If it was the regular season, I guess he wouldn't end it like this! But now it's in the Grand Final! Green's action just now scared Cole!
The referee saw that Green's movements were indeed dangerous, and Jefferson was the first to go up to hit Green. But the final penalty was not heavy. No player was ejected, although Green said a lot to the referee and was not heeded. Later, he was dragged down by his teammates. West was replaced.
