Chapter 517: Best Substitute
"Let's play like this. Jeremy Lin and Mozgov, Jonathan and Teague, you guys have to work a little bit more together. Griffin and Mozgov are mainly responsible for the interior defense...... "Chan had a good idea at the end of the first quarter.
Use the chemistry between the players to play the game! The current Brooklyn is basically a whole team on the court. So this actually cuts off some of the combined effects.
35:27! At the beginning of the second quarter, it was found that the opponent did not change the lineup. The Nets still scored a certain number of points in the final moments, so they didn't let the difference widen! The opponent either scored 2 points and shot one after another, or began to bombard the Nets on three points!
The way the team plays has changed, but that's something that has to be done now. It's about trying new ways to deal with the opponent's attack! And if you want to overtake your opponent, the chances are still much smaller.
Looking at it this way, the third quarter was not a turning point in the game. The turning point of the game came in the second half of the fourth quarter. If you don't get it right, the first half of the game will "end early".
DeRozan hit a long-range 2-point shot directly after arriving in the frontcourt! 37:27! Lin came to the front court with the ball and passed the ball directly into Jonathan's hands in the face of Lowry's defense. Jamie Lin received the basketball again and feigned offense and passed the ball to Mozgov! After the gap comes out, the small hook basketball directly enters the net!
With Delang's 2-point miss, Griffin dribbled to the front court after getting the rebound, facing Ibaka's defense, he directly and skillfully passed the opponent and immediately dunked and scored! 37:31! It seems that this set of tactics may still have some effect on Brooklyn!
Ibaka held the ball in front of Griffin's defense and threw the ball high into the hands of Jonas, who immediately dunked and scored points! 39:31! Lin took the ball and went to the frontcourt, and after successfully deceiving the opponent and his teammates, he jumped up and hit a three-point shot!
Lowry and DeRozan were talking about something. The team's form is starting to get more serious! Maybe it's because the Nets are starting to chase points now, so the team has also increased their vigilance to face the current Nets. Derang didn't have three points after getting the ball on the left side! Griffin gets the rebound again and makes a long pass to Teague!
Jonathan took Teague's pass and immediately went into the net with a three-point hollow! 39:37! These two three-pointers boosted the momentum of the Nets all at once! If today's Brooklyn tactics at the beginning of the game were suppressed by the opponent, then the current tactics can be considered to be temporarily comparable to Toronto!
The score difference has become so close all at once! Some of the Nets players are starting to stand up and watch the game!
Ibaka went to the sideline to serve to Lowry, who slowly went to the frontcourt, and DeRozan took the pass and hit a three-point shot directly! 42:37! The speed of the Nets, who are confident that they will return soon, has also improved to a certain extent!
Teague accelerated and rushed over and passed the ball directly to Jonathan, Mozgov got the basketball and pretended to be a layup and threw the ball directly to Lin, who hit a jump shot and stepped on the line for 2 points! 42:39!
The Raptors also found that Brooklyn at this time was as difficult to catch as a bird next to you. With Ibaka's shot missing, Mozgov immediately got the basketball and passed the ball to Teague! Jonathan took the pass and hit a three-point shot directly! 42:42!
Looking at such a score, Coach Casey is about to take a timeout!
"The opponent has changed a lot, so don't focus too much on the offense and ignore the defense in the next game. Pay more attention to the matter of cutting off the connection between them...... "The Raptors players listened attentively. None of them want to lose tonight!
"Play when you're sure and shoot when you're sure. There is still plenty of time. And we're now on the same level as the other side. So my requirement is to slow down a little bit so that you can be patient with the other side. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure such efficiency until the end of this section......"
Chen felt that there was a lot to say, and the players were going to play at the end, and Chen still gave a few words behind him. Today's game is quite large! This kind of situation is not too common, and it is much more difficult to coach.
You have a feeling that you can't hold the Nets in such a state, and Chen Yinan obviously has this feeling tonight. This feeling also made Chen very uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to watch the game go on.
The Nets players who returned to the court found that not only had they become calmer, but the other side also seemed to have slowed down.
Delang went to the frontcourt, and after Lowry got the ball, he immediately went to the frontcourt to face Lin and missed a jumper! After Jonas got the basketball, Mozgov received a third foul and successfully played 2+1! 45:42!
Teague came up front with the ball, and Jamilin took the ball and immediately passed it to Mozgov. The latter scored with a direct dunk! 45:44!
For the third quarter, both the Raptors and the Nets basically have to change the bench to play the game. This is even more true now. No one can guarantee an absolute advantage, so it's still not very reassuring. At the same time, if you look at it in the third quarter, it is another opportunity! One chance to take the initiative!
Chen is still relatively confident in terms of aspect! The Nets can fight the Raptors in this quarter! After Ibaka got the basketball, he didn't expect to dunk the ball straight out! Mozgov got the rebound and quickly threw the ball high to Griffin.
Unexpectedly, DeRozan rushed over and immediately scored a 2-point jump shot after cutting off the basketball! 47:44! Lin dribbled the ball to the front court alone and hit a three-pointer. So the score is tied again!
"Dinwiddie, Goodwin, warm up," Lin said to the two of them. Soon after, Chen asked for a timeout. Replaced Teague with Goodwin. Now it's all about putting Goodwin on the pitch to see how he does today!
If it's okay, then let him play in the third quarter! If not, then Russell will come out early and organize the game in the third quarter! In recent games, Russell has been more consistent. He's scoring well, too.
Jonas served the ball to Lowry, but he didn't expect Goodwin to cut off the basketball shortly after he arrived in the front court! Jeremy Lin was taken aback! Goodwin sometimes has a bit of a Beverley meaning on the field~
Suddenly appear in front of you and snatch the ball away! Jonathan immediately took the pass and passed it to Lin! The latter saw Griffin coming over and immediately passed it straight over! Due to the excessive speed, the more frequent passes also temporarily dispersed the opponent's rhythm. Griffin made a three-point jumper with 2 seconds to make! 50:47!
What is certain now is that Goodwin will remain on the court for the next quarter.
