Chapter 838: Second Round!
The entire Philadelphia 76ers team had an early practice day tacitly five days after each other.
NBA2009 to the first round of the 2010 playoffs, all over.
"Sure enough, it's ......!"
Preparing for the second round of the game, Chen Mu and his teammates followed Carlisle to the preparation room and began to make pre-war arrangements.
"The West is basically like that, the Lakers, Suns, Mavericks, and Trail Blazers have all successfully qualified. Next, the Lakers vs. the Trail Blazers, the Lakers have a big chance of winning. Suns vs. Mavericks, although the Mavericks have created some impressive things this season, but in terms of strength comparison, the Suns still have a relatively large chance of winning, about ...... Let's open it in seven-three! ”
Carlisle briefly talked about the situation in the west, and then turned his head and went straight back to the east.
"We swept the Bulls, the Cavaliers swept the Bobcats, the Hawks 4-2 Bucks, and the Celtics 4-1 Heat. After the first round, the three groups of matchups are a big difference. Whether it's the Hawks or the Bucks, whoever advances between the two won't have much impact on the situation. We, the Cavaliers, Boston, no matter which one meets the Hawks or the Bucks, there is no chance of capsizing. ”
While it may seem disrespectful to the Hawks and Bucks to say that, the players know that Carlisle is telling the truth.
'The threat is still between our three teams and it hasn't changed since last year.
Carlisle turned around, wrote the names of the three teams on the board, and continued: "So I really think the Cavaliers have had a lot of luck this year, and they didn't threaten the Bobcats in the first round. In the second round, against the Hawks or Bucks, the threat is almost zero. They're pretty much in the Eastern Conference Finals, so I'm just going to write them down. ”
As he spoke, Carlisle turned around, grimaced at the players, and said with a smile: "After all, if they capsize in the gutter and we come to the Eastern Conference Finals against the Hawks, you won't have any pressure, right?" ”
"Hahahahaha......"
Chen Mu and the others were all happy, what they said was really unreasonable, and what they said was very reasonable.
"Then, our first round was easy, after all, the gap between the upper and lower teams in the East was too big, and the Bulls were swept by us. They managed to get two wins against us last year, and although Kyle was injured, we were stronger this year, there is no doubt about that. ”
Carlisle continued: "But in the second round, we have to be careful. ”
Boston, Celtics.
Last year's opponent gave the Philadelphia 76ers the most painful memory.
Removing the injury factor, even if Philadelphia played at full strength last year, no one can guarantee whether the Celtics will show more terrifying fighting power in the series.
This year, it's a new beginning.
Since you have to go, you have to go neatly. Since you want to break in, you have to go to Longtan Tiger's Den.
said that if you want to win the championship, you can't have any distractions......!
"Okay, combat power analysis!"
With a wave of his hand, Carlisle stepped forward and handed each player a thick booklet.
"Hmm" opened, Chen Mu looked at the data and analysis words recorded on it, and all the memories of this extremely powerful opponent in his mind were instantly evoked.
In fact, we all know that Boston is strong, and we all know it.
But with the support of the collation of these things, everything is clear.
"With an average of 100.3 points per game, 16th in the league, mid-stream data, the scoring explosion is not very strong. But if you look down, they have a PACE of 91.6, which is 22nd in the league. This kind of PACE can play this scoring ranking, and Boston's offensive ability is far stronger than the points scored per game indicate, and it is many times stronger. ”
Carlisle didn't take the data booklet, but the data blurted out directly. The delicate-minded Lowry and the others were a little stunned all of a sudden, and the coach seemed to have really put in a lot of hard work!
"Defensive end is conceding 95.1 points per game, which is fifth in the league. This data also has moisture, in short, their regular season data has moisture, not the kind of exaggerated moisture, but the kind of moisture that does not fully show their strength. After removing the moisture, they will only be stronger. ”
Carlisle began to write something on the whiteboard.
"In terms of advanced statistics, the offensive RTG is 13th in the league and the defensive RTG is 5th in the league. All in all, Boston in the regular season is a good team, with strong defense, slow tempo, and a high offensive success rate, which means that the players have a high execution ability. ”
This was common sense, but when Carlisle said that, everything became clearer and more organized.
The offense is on the top side of the game, and the defense is top-level. Remove the moisture, attack the top ten in the league, defend the top three in the league or even the first, and you can't run away.
The leading scorer per game was Pierce, averaging 18.3 points per game on 12.2 shots and shooting 47.2 overall and 41.4 three-point range. The stats still look like big legs, but looking at the data of 100 rounds, or 36 minutes of data, Pierce has reached a career freezing point in personal scoring this season, which will only exceed the first two years of his career. ”
As Carlisle said this, his eyes couldn't stop looking at Iguodala.
The latter's fists were clenched very tightly and tightly.
Last year, there was no scum left that he had so hard blasted.
This year......
Revenge......!!
"But the shooting percentage, especially the true shooting percentage, is the highest in my career. To sum it up, this year's Pierce has changed a lot in the regular season, with fewer individual singles and more overall running shots. The scoring efficiency is outrageous, and it can be quite a headache to defend. ”
"In terms of shooting tendencies, this year his shots are a little bit more inward, with 0 to 3 feet more than 3 out of 2, in other words, more back-to-back singles. Outside the three-point line, the power of the assist is more than ninety, pay attention to cut off the passing route, and he rarely shoots three-pointers directly with the ball. ”
"Andrey, you remember for me."
Carlisle looked at Iguodala with both eyes: "In this series, we don't have the manpower to cover Pierce for you, you need to fight one-on-one with him, not a second of help, be mentally prepared." ”
"I'll let him know what the ...... of the first outer blockade in the east is!"
Iguodala nodded heavily.
"Okay, next is Ray Allen......"
In the next two hours, Carlisle analyzed all the players of the Celtics from starters to benches, shooting habits, performance this season, changes in trends, and improvements and decreases in ability.
When talking about Garnett, Chen Mu's ears were taller than a rabbit.
"Points, rebounds, playing time, steals, blocks...... Almost all of the stats are career lows after their rookie season. ”
Carlisle was also extra cautious in his analysis of Garnett, saying word by word: "But what this means, you know better than I do." ”
"He's got a break he's never had before, and he's probably functioning at his best in the last three years."
Chen Mu nodded, and the words he said were in one sentence.
"That's right, so in terms of defensive efficiency and offensive efficiency, it's almost the highest in my career."
Carlisle nodded and continued: "His task in the team's offensive and defensive tactics is much lighter now, so he will have a lot of time to pester you all the time. And the most commendable thing about Garnett is that as a superstar, he never stops doing anything because of his status. ”
"For example, some interior superstars refuse to go around the front to defend the opponent's interior ace, but Garnett won't. For example, some superstars are lazy without the ball, but Garnett will not. For example, some superstars have already begun to think about attacking with the ball before they finish blocking and dismantling, but Garnett will not. ”
Chen Mu listened and nodded.
"He's a victory maniac, just like you, he's willing to do anything to win."
Carlisle looked at him and put Garnett's name at the center of all the Celtics' player names: "He's the real Boston core, and your mission is ......"
turned around and looked at Chen Mu.
"It's to start from the core and completely dismember the Celtic ......!"
“…… Be!!! ”
After the analysis, the players roared in unison.
"Revenge, kill them."
"Revenge...... Kill them!! ”
Amid Carney's frantic howls, Philadelphia was all in full force and ready to go.
This year, run over ......!
A day later, Vajovia.
"It's finally here, ahhh!!h
Barkley Smith two living treasures appeared, and such a game that mixed the battle of the strongest team, the flame of revenge, the competition of tactics, and the duel of stars is finally about to begin.
"In terms of various positions, Philadelphia's lineup is actually not very dominant against Boston!"
The starting rosters for both sides have come out, and there is no suspense on either side.
Boston Celtics, starting point guard Rondo, shooting guard Ray Allen, small forward Pierce, power forward Garnett, center Perkins.
The main rotation of substitutes is Rasheed Wallace, Glenn Davis, Marquis Daniels, Tony Allen, Eddie House, Nate Robinson, and Scala Brian.
"The soldiers are strong."
After reading Boston's roster, Smith sighed sincerely: "The forbearance of the regular season is for the outbreak of the playoffs, and we have all seen Boston's performance in the first round." This season's Heat is not weak at all, and Wade is even more of a god-killing state, if it weren't for the pressure of Chen and LeBron in the East, this season should be Wade's shining season. ”
"The thickness of the Heat's inside and outside lineup is very good, but when it comes to Boston, it is almost shaved head. In the four games he lost, he lost by an average of nearly 20 points per game, and he didn't have the slightest chance. ”
"Yes, the game to win was won because Garnett fouled too many and left the game early, and Wade came down to the earth to win with a wave of super explosions, tsk, it's not easy."
Barkley nodded.
"If you want to beat Philadelphia, Boston's best breakthrough point......"
Smith's eyes glanced at the court.
"Brush!"
Stephen Curry, who had just made a three-pointer, excitedly shared with Chen Mu how great his hand was.
"Let's see how they cope......!"
Barkley nodded, not saying more.
An hour later, the players from both sides officially entered. (To be continued.) )
