The King of the NBA

Chapter 388 - Western Conference Finals (5)



The Timberwolves changed their defensive strategy and strengthened their defense against Curry and Thompson.

Seeing the players adjust their defenses themselves, Adelman relaxed. He was originally prepared to remind the players to strengthen their defense against the three-point line. Now it seems unnecessary.

However, after more than two minutes, Adelman was nervous again. They strengthened their defense against the three-point line, especially against Curry and Thompson. Once they saw Curry taking the ball, they were directly involved. If Curry and Thompson break through, there are also Love and Whiteside to block. As for the missing people, Ning Yi takes over.

The Warriors have a small lineup and there is not much height inside, so even if the insider misses Ning Yi, he can withstand it.

But even so, there is no way to restrict Curry and Thompson.

The Warriors’ rhythm is too fast, and the counterattack is fast. It is often the Timberwolves who have just returned to their own half after the attack. The Warriors’ counterattack has arrived. Curry and Thompson don’t even wait for their teammates to come. Raise your hand in the middle and throw three points, and you can still enter.

In just over two minutes, Curry scored a three-pointer and Thompson scored two three-pointers. The Splash Brothers’ three-pointer rain was indeed terrifying and made people shudder.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that both players can have this kind of performance in every game, but obviously they are in very good shape now, and this is part of the game itself. Ning Yi can face Bogut continuously, Curry and It’s not surprising that Thompson made consecutive shots in the counterattack.

“beep”

Adelman called a timeout.

After the players came down, Adelman first emphasized defense, and then said a tone. “We try to defend as much as possible. If we still can’t defend, it doesn’t matter. We can’t change our opponents, but we can change ourselves.” He looked at Ning Yi and Love, “Ning, Love, give you the offensive end. No matter whether we can limit the fouls of Curry and Thompson, we must play the offense well. Even if we can’t limit the opponent, At least they can cancel each other out.”

“Yes.”

“understand.”

Ning Yi and Le Fu exchanged glances and nodded together.

Returning to the field, the Warriors are still in the small five, but Barnes was replaced and replaced by Iguodala. Under Ning Yi’s defense, Barnes did not play well.

On the side of the Timberwolves, Jack was replaced and replaced with Rubio. Rubio came up. Ning Yi handed the organization task to him. After he reached the frontcourt, he quickly ran and moved with his teammates.

Rubio has only two tasks, one is to organize the offense, and the other is to shoot a three-pointer. Now he is organizing the offense. Seeing Ning Yi and Turner cross the running position, he is rushing to ask for the ball, and passed immediately. .

Ning Yi took the ball, lowered the center of gravity, and reached out with his right foot, making a breakthrough posture. Iguodala also immediately lowered the center of gravity, opened his hands, and withdrew one foot to respond at any time.

But at this moment Ning Yi suddenly jumped up.

“Dry!” Iguodala responded quickly and jumped immediately.

However, he was still one step slower. Ning Yi’s dry pull was not only sudden, but also his shot speed was very fast. He specifically consulted McGrady and then merged McGrady’s dry pull with his shot speed to form his unique dry pull. Tracy McGrady is awkward, but also with his back, Ning Yi is abrupt, plus quick shot.

Uh!

The ball was scored and a three-pointer was hit.

Ning Yi glanced at Curry and turned back to defend. Curry could also make a three-pointer. Although he may not be more accurate than Curry, it might not be much worse.

Ning Yi is not as good as Curry in the simple three-point shooting ability. After all, there is a difference in level, but Ning Yi has a height and wingspan that Curry does not have.

For a player, strength is a part and status is a part!

After Ning Yi hit a three-pointer, Curry planned to return another one, but failed to shoot. Green still grabbed a rebound and passed it to Iguodala to score a layup and score two points.

But turning around, Love was another three-pointer and gave the Warriors a shot.

It’s been a few rounds between you and me, and the second quarter has already passed. The hit rate of both sides has begun to decline. Whether it’s Curry, Thompson, Ning Yi, or Love, good conditions can’t last forever If you go on, you will be affected by physical fitness, and no one can ignore this.

Seeing the drop in the hit rate of his players, Cole started to replace him, replacing Curry with Thompson and Green one after another, and Bogut replaced it.

Adelman also replaced, replacing Ning Yi and Love, one after another, Martin and Jokic, and let them take turns to deal with Bogut. The “foul foul” tactic still needs to be continued.

Bogut had been idle for a period of time because he had “no heart” for defending Ning Yi, but of course he can no longer do that, but this is exactly what Adelman wanted. Martin and Jokic did not disappoint Adelman. In the second quarter, they didn’t have much time to win. They even made Bogut a foul.

Seeing this, Cole frowned again and again.

McGrady laughed and said, “Bogut is unlucky today.”

“Hehe.” Yao Ming chuckled. “This is a good thing for the Timberwolves. Bogut basically didn’t play a role today. Now he has fouled 3 times. When the two sides will face more intense confrontation in the second half, his playing time But it will be restricted, and the Warriors’ inside will become a loophole.”

“So what do you think the Warriors will respond to?” McGrady asked.

Yao Ming said, “The Warriors’ inner line is a weakness by offense, and the outside line is not a monolithic one. Curry is also a defensive weakness. So by defense, it is difficult for the Warriors to win the Timberwolves. After all, the Timberwolves have a strong offensive ability, Ning Yi, Love, as well as Martin and Turner, are all able to score points.”

“The Warriors have the advantage of scoring, and their scoring ability is one of the best in the entire league~www.mtlnovel.com~ The explosiveness of scoring is even better than the whole league. When they played well, it was a dozen or twenty in two or three minutes. Points are not impossible. So after Bogut loses deterrence throughout, they can only rely on offense to win.”

McGrady took it seriously and asked, “What about the Timberwolves?”

Yao Ming smiled and said, “Do you know why you should ask me? In my opinion, the Timberwolves will choose defense. Of course, not blind defense, but defense and offense are equally important, but the final victory is to rely on defense. Attacking with the Warriors is not A good choice, it will only fall into the rhythm of the Warriors. Compared with them, the Timberwolves may not lose, but they may not win, and the risk is very high. The key is that they do not need to do that at all, they can be based on Defensively, as long as you hold on for a while, carry the Warriors’ counterattack, and wait for the Warriors’ offensive to recede, the Timberwolves will win.”

McGrady nodded again and again and joked, “Yao, I think you should be a coach.”

Yao Ming smiled, noncommittal.

When a coach can only save one team, what he wants to save is the entire China Basketball. To do this, it is not possible to be a coach. Even if it is a national team coach, only become the chairman of the basketball association.
