Build a Dream Dynasty

On February 18, the Chesapeake Energy Arena was full, and the fans packed the arena. The opponents of last year's finals met again in the regular season, and the grievances will continue.

In last season's finals, the Nets successfully used their strategy and successfully killed the Thunder, which had few players in the headwind. And the Thunder's brain-dead trade that was destined to go down in history was once again magnified and complained. An All-Star Harden was let go by the team like this, not to mention the Thunder fans felt unacceptable, and even many neutral fans felt pity for the Thunder Three Shao. Perhaps, this transaction also gave away the Thunder's hope of creating a better future.

In the offseason, the Thunder team has further reduced the number of personnel. Except for the rookie Olynyk selected in the inside line, which is a supplement to the inside line, it is difficult to say whether the other personnel are stronger or weaker. Jeremy Lin was gone, but the team first signed Livingston as a supplement to help the team slow down, and then signed Fisher to continue to gain experience. In the use of other players, the team is also more patient. Including Morrow, Robertson, and Simmons can all get some opportunities. Brooks has some meaning to sacrifice his record to practice as a substitute this season. The bench players have performed slightly better in this situation, but in the playoffs, can you? It's hard to tell.

Whether the bench players can play in the playoffs is another matter. Anyway, when they met the Nets in the regular season, Brooks’ idea was to let go of all principles.

At the beginning of the game, Lopez won the jump ball, the Nets attacked, and Curry dribbled the ball over half court and passed it to Fernandez.

West and Curry were outside the left three-point line, Butler went to the bottom corner on the right, Lopez was 70 degrees on the right, and the formation was completely opened. Curry stood on the bottom line and ran back to the line at full speed to catch the ball. West blocked Holiday. Ibaka failed to switch defenses in time, spread out on the corner of the penalty area and took a step slower. Curry caught the ball and shot a jumper. The left 60-degree three-pointer hollowed into the net, 3-0.

Ibaka is already considered to be the best inside player in the league, but there is no way. Curry's shooting ability and his ability to play small and big are both historic. When his teammates provide high-quality pick-and-rolls, they help form the In a one-on-one situation, defending him can only rely on prayers.

Curry declared war at the opening, and Durant was not at all cowardly. After catching the ball on the flank, he dribbled the ball against Butler and forced a mid-range jumper to turn to the bottom line.

Durant is really at the level of nuclear weapons in singles. The height and arm length are fast, and the core strength is completely unbeatable against most people. The key girl's shooting feel is still against the sky. To be honest, even the weak physical strength that is criticized by others is completely attributable to the Thunder's lineup. With him being both a father and a mother, you let him come to the Nets and only play 36 minutes a game, so you can be sure that death will come to you until the fourth quarter.

The Nets attacked, Curry held the ball, restrained Holiday’s defense, and passed the ball to Fernandez, who feinted the ball and broke through Westbrook with the ball, attracting Perkins to traverse and take two steps , the hitting pass was 45 degrees to the right, and Butler cut empty. Butler took advantage of the situation, and then the pick-and-roll without the ball blocked Durant, who was on defense. Lopez received the ball and scored an easy layup.

The Thunder attacked, Westbrook forcibly tore a hole from the Nets' release line, and after attracting a double-team, he scored the ball to Ibaka, who received the ball and hit two points. This season, Ibaka has already Grow into the team's third-leading scorer, averaging 13.8 points per game even higher than Holiday.

This certainly reflects Ibaka's high offensive efficiency and accurate shooting, which can help the pair open up space, but it also shows how much the Thunder's tactics are now inclined towards Durant and Westbrook. Holiday is like this The offensive and defensive very good second position player, was used as a blue-collar.

Can you totally blame Brooks for not being good at it? In the 2011 Western Conference finals, he also made the magical operation of using Menor to remove Westbrook, stabilize the situation, and defeat the Mavericks, but then, when the problems between Durant and Westbrook became more and more obvious, Instead, he no longer has such measures, and the reason is worth pondering.

Although there are such and other problems in the basketball of the two young people, their advantages are enough to fill their problems. The Thunder team is talented and can overturn any opponent. This is definitely not touted, but a fact.

In this game, the normal rotation of the Nets, under the operation of the Thunder team's dead grass Dewey, gradually fell behind. As long as I don't replace Durant and Westbrook, the advantages of your rotation won't come out, maybe that's the way the Thunder are thinking.

But, as demonstrated in last year's Finals, it simply doesn't work. Durant and Westbrook can win one game, two games, and it's hard for them to kill the Nets four games alive. In the regular season, there is no other way. If the finals are reached, what will the Thunder do to compete with the Nets?

Those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan for a corner, and those who do not plan for a lifetime ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ cannot do it for a while. This sentence may be very appropriate to describe today's Thunder team, of course, public opinion will always fall to the winner. At least if the Nets lose today, the temporary wind comment will still regard the Nets' Finals victory last year as a "strategic" victory rather than a strength victory.

Leonard still appeared as a bench player in this game. After playing, in the face of Durant, Leonard also frequently took the initiative to attack, consuming the opponent's physical strength.

Leonard beat James in the Eastern Conference finals last season and performed well. But when he entered the finals confidently and wanted to compete with Durant, another mountain character in the league, he was brutally abused by Durant. In the first round of the regular season, Leonard missed the game. This was also the first time Leonard had the opportunity to face Durant after the finals. It can be clearly seen that Leonard has improved.

On the offensive end, Leonard's singles with the ball are smoother. Last season, Leonard stopped at the penalty area line when he attacked more with the ball. In this game, he was able to force his way inside by relying on his strength. Killing, even if you can't score, at least it won't make Durant feel better.

It's still a truth, Durant can't always maintain a strong offensive and defensive end in 40+ minutes of playing time. If he can maintain his dominance with Leonard throughout the confrontation, he is really not human.

In the second quarter, the Nets attacked, Leonard leaned on his back twice, forcibly turned to the bottom line and shot, Durant jumped up to block, the two had physical contact, and the referee blew Durant's thug Foul, this is Durant's third foul.

As a last resort, Brooks had to replace Durant and put on Simmons, an old Nets player, to survive the last half of the first half.
