Chapter 829 [The Devil's Home Field, Well Deserved]

On the 19th, the Staples Arena was packed.

Before the game, the regular season MVP award ceremony was held, and President Adam Silva was present as the guest of honor. In his acceptance speech, he said: "This is only the second active player in the league to win back-to-back MVP and Stephen is the best player I've ever seen. ”

Silva was talking about the best player, without adding "one". The league likes Curry very much, not because of his invincible skills, but because he has the best character, no scandals, no drifting, not strong, and he doesn't even go to nightclubs.

In the face of this praise, Curry was at a loss, sometimes inserting his hands into his trouser pockets, sometimes swaying from side to side, and his eyes were embarrassed to look directly at the MVP trophy, causing a little embarrassment.

Yang Rui noticed Griffin's expression, he squinted, his expression was serious, and the word jealousy seemed to be written on his face. Yang Rui thinks it's time to consider trading Griffin in the summer......

Curry won the MVP, and the Clippers' home morale was booming. Today, the management ordered a red commemorative T-shirt and distributed it to every fan present, corresponding to the Chinese red jersey worn by the Clippers today.

Some of the rules in the NBA are a thing of the past, and there is no longer a distinction between a light home jersey and a dark away jersey. The home team can wear any shirt they wish, while the away team will need to wear a shirt with a contrasting colour to the home team's shirt at their choice.

In this year's playoffs, the Nets like to wear black at home, as a lucky jersey, and they wore black twice in the regular season.

Nearly 20,000 spectators, uniformly wearing red T-shirts, occupied several seats in the square, with the same slogan, this formation, through the TV screen fans will feel the blood boiling.

The Clippers' home atmosphere will bring a lot of pressure to the visiting team, and the Devils' home court is well deserved.

If a player wants to win away from home in this environment, he must not only have the quality, but also have a good mentality.

Clippers starters: Curry, Danny Green, Middleton, Farid, Griffin.

Spurs starters: Parker, Fournier, Leonard, Duncan, Split.

Both sides adjusted their starting lineups at the beginning, and Yang Rui put Chandler on the bench, making it clear that he wanted to fight with the Spurs to attack.

This is the decision made by Yang Rui and the assistant coaches after watching the last round of the Spurs vs Mavericks series, and Duncan shot very little in the seventh game, and he was tired.

Entering the playoffs, Duncan averaged 32.8 minutes per game, scoring 16.5 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.3 blocks. In the first two rounds, facing Miles Plumlee and Nowitzki, Duncan did not have a high score, so Griffin had no problem defending him.

Split casually plays a single defense, as long as he doesn't let him dunk, he won't score a few points. In the last round of 7 games, the Spurs players are physically disadvantaged, and Farid's speed advantage will also be brought into play.

The Spurs started Fournier because the Clippers swingman is not good at handling the ball, and he will not be a defensive hole against Green. In the second quarter, Belinelli brought substitutes, and Mills and Ginobili could shoot suddenly, which was more suitable for chaotic counterattacks.

Split jumped the ball and the game began.

The Clippers opened with a mixed defense, with Green facing Parker in the middle, Curry and Middleton on either side, and Griffin and Farid on the baseline. The disadvantage of this lineup is that the restricted area interferes with the big man's shooting, and the advantage is that it is highly mobile, and can rotate quickly in all positions, suppressing the team that mainly shoots from the outside.

Throughout the season, the Clippers have been the main perimeter defender, reducing the opponent's three-point shooting percentage, and the league's third-most defensive perimeter efficiency.

Parker and Duncan blocked down the left side in the middle, Griffinka broke through the line, and Green dropped back in the middle to bypass the cover and put Parker under pressure on the side. It's easier to defend Parker than Curry, and Green is comfortable because he doesn't need to defend the three-point line, and Parker can't shoot from distance.

Parker couldn't rush up, distributed the ball to the middle, Duncan didn't shoot in the face of Green, held the ball high above his head, and responded with a frame, and when Parker ran away, he gave Leonard who asked for the ball on the left, and Middleton defended it from behind.

Yang Rui asked Middleton to focus on Leonard, and the other four were zoned defense. Leonard is already an important scoring point for the Spurs, the team's third offensive option, sending someone to focus on him will not shoot a lot, but if he is completely united, he takes Curry's side, Curry will definitely have a hard time defending.

Leonard is not a man who likes to attack, so he dribbled and turned, hitting the ground and passing to Split, who cut low to Farid in the open post.

HEIGHT 211CM PLAYING 203CM, SPLIT HAS AN OBVIOUS ADVANTAGE, BUT FARED'S 102 KG STRENGTH IS NOT VERY BAD, AND HE IS DEFENDING WITH ALL HIS STRENGTH IN THE BACK, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR HIM TO ENTER THE PENALTY AREA.

Split is not afraid of tall centers, he moves fast enough, most of the scoring is an open cut shot to receive a pass from a teammate on the baseline, he has always been stiff with the ball in the low post, and the range has not been practiced, forcing a turn to the middle, and the half-hook shot is wide under the interference, and Griffin grabs the rebound.

The Clippers immediately launched a counterattack, Griffin passed to Curry on the same side, Curry dribbled to the middle of the Faried, Farid interfered with the shot and glanced back in the direction of the ball and sprinted, a few steps away from Split.

Curry passes the ball with a two-handed shot, imagining the position where Farid is going to run to the basket, and the pass is extremely accurate. This is the technique that Nash taught him, and the experience has risen again. Farid received the ball and took three steps and scored with both hands. 2 to 0.

Farid rushed too fast and threw his leg to the rebound, and Split followed behind him, and there was nothing he could do.

The Spurs attacked, Parker dribbled the ball across the half, played blocking and dismantling with Duncan, forced a breakthrough past Griffin, and Farid made up for the defense to form a pinch. Parker distributed the ball to Split, who couldn't shoot directly from the baseline, took a step inside, and after half a second of slowness, Griffin turned around and interfered with the basket.

Coupled with the retreating Green, the Clippers surrounded the restricted area with three people, Split was caught by Griffinka, and turning to the middle would hit Green, and the rhythm was not good and gave up the strong shot, and passed the ball to Duncan in the middle, Green immediately turned around and went to defend Duncan.

Duncan knew he could interfere with the shot as soon as he saw Green's speed, so he didn't shoot and gave it to Parker, who was running. Parker split the ball to Fournier on the right, who got a chance to single out Curry.

FOURNIER, WHO IS 198CM TALL AND WEIGHS ONLY 86 KILOGRAMS, AND CURRY IS 191CM TALL AND WEIGHS THE SAME AS HIM. Just look at the figure to know how bad Fournier is against him, he can only rely on his skill and height advantage to beat Curry, and it won't work to eat hard.

Fournier is an agile quarterback who can break through with the ball against a strong man, but Curry is not bad at breaking through and keeping a distance. He shifted his direction after probing his face, took a step with his left foot, and took a pull-up jumper from inside the three-point line, which was too easy to play, and was deflected wide under Curry's interference, and Farid grabbed the rebound.

After Farid landed, he passed to Green nearby, and Green took a step to distribute the ball to Curry, and there was a misalignment on the court.

One of the benefits of joint defense is that once the opponent can't shoot, the quick offensive and defensive conversion is easy to create misalignment opportunities, Curry takes the ball and quickly advances to the frontcourt, changes to the left and takes a step, dribbles behind the back and quickly gives the right hand to step back, and Fournier opens the distance, and takes a quick shot outside the 70-degree three-point line.

Fournier reacted quickly and immediately jumped up to block it, but his athleticism was average, and he could only try to close his eyes if he couldn't cover it.

Curry had the perfect rhythm and the ball made a beautiful arc and hollowed into the net. 5 to 0.

The home fans chanted "MVP" together, and the decibel level outpaced the plane......
