One Guard

For a second-generation star who has been living on the sidelines of the NBA since he was a child, Curry has seen a lot of worlds. The legendary goals scored by countless legends have been witnessed by this baby-faced defender.

But the kind of layup by Yiyang just now, Curry is really unprecedented. The person in the air turns around and then changes hands. Just thinking about it, this action is particularly complicated.

Curry kept the ball advancing, while looking up and down Yiyang. This number one is indeed very incredible, but this does not mean that he will easily admit defeat. The stronger the opponent, the more necessary it is to defeat it!

Curry's dribble is still relaxed and comfortable, and he can see that his whole body is relaxed, unlike other defenders who are tight when they see Yiyang.

This time Curry didn't do it alone, but gave the ball to their inside prop David Lee. This seemingly harmless white insider is definitely one of the league's most underrated players.

As a frequent visitor to the 20+10 club, David Lee's offensive skills as a double-double king are very gorgeous. His range can be extended beyond the three-point line, and he can shoot both left and right hands.

Excellent footwork, flexible ball control, superior vision, excellent passing... This makes David Lee almost a player with no blind spots in offensive skills.

If it weren't for Mark Jackson's intention to support Curry, David Lee's data would never decline slightly because of this. But sometimes, the Warriors still need him to open up the situation inside.

Leaning on Nowitzki, David Lee began to push back. David Lee, who is more weight dominant, allows himself to eat a deeper position every time he takes a step back. Seeing that Nowitzki couldn't resist the opponent, he stretched out his hand and prepared to steal.

However, at the moment when the German's center of gravity stretched forward to steal the ball, David Lee used his flexible footsteps to quickly turn around Nowitzki!

With just one step, Nowitzki was completely thrown away by David Lee. The latter dunks with both hands in the face of an empty basket, once again helping the Warriors to overtake the score.

Carlisle shook his head, having to admit that the Warriors' offensive firepower is really very powerful. Do you think they are just outside firepower? No, their inside line is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.

After dozens of seconds, Iguodala shot from beyond the three-point line and hit the iron, allowing the Warriors to make a comeback.

This time, no one knows whether the Warriors will play inside or outside. David Lee is actively seeking positions, but Curry seems to be looking for opportunities.

Just when Yiyang couldn't figure it out, Curry passed the ball again, and the object of the pass was David Lee. It seems that the Warriors want to build an advantage inside first.

However, after passing the ball to David Lee this time, Curry didn't stand in place to enjoy the success, but ran quickly, seeming to be looking for a gap!

Now Yiyang understood that things were not that simple. David Lee is just a cover, the real end point is Curry!

Curry circled into the three-second zone, then suddenly turned at a right angle and ran away from the three-point line in front of the basket.

Yiyang quickly changed his center of gravity, even Curry had to admit that Yiyang was the deadliest opponent he had ever seen to chase after him.

At this time, Yiyang saw Bogut already leaning against Curry with his light. At the same time, David Lee passed the ball to Curry, and he was standing parallel to Bogut.

This strange position is impossible! ?

Curry passed through the middle of the two inner lanes with the ball, and Yiyang tried to keep up, but at this moment, the two inner lanes in parallel positions suddenly moved closer to each other, closing tightly like an elevator door!

"Boom!" Yiyang naturally slammed into the Warriors' two insiders, and when he got rid of the entanglement of the other side and wanted to go to Curry, Curry had already made a shot.

Open three-point shots are rarely missed by Curry. Basketball heads into the net and Curry makes a three-pointer!

Yiyang gritted his teeth and recalled what happened when he just defended Curry. The ball holder "passed", and the two insiders "closed" next. This is a very typical "elevator door tactic" of the Warriors!

"The Warriors' tactics were executed very successfully, which is why their offense ranks among the best in the league. The coordination between Curry and the two insiders is seamless, even the best defensive player. No way." Mike Brin had to sigh with the smoothness of the Warriors’ offense. It seems that everyone in the Warriors is a part. After Mark Jackson put them all together, they became a never-ending machine. The offensive machine that went wrong.

Curry's three-pointer put the Mavericks behind by four points, four points, which is also the biggest difference in this game so far.

Yiyang is now thinking about how to crack the Warriors' elevator tactics. He doesn't want Curry to score forty or fifty points on his head.

On the offensive end, Yiyang keeps everything simple. The Mavericks do not have as complicated offensive tactics as the Warriors, but under Yiyang's control, others can easily get a chance.

This time, Yiyang's breakthrough still attracted the attention of Bogut and David Lee. Just when people were curious about what incredible way Yiyang would use to score under the defense of the two insides, he passed the ball accurately in the crowd.

At the mid-range position, Nowitzki, who was "no one cares", took the ball and shot. The Germans' soft touch ensured the accuracy of the basketball. The Mavericks scored two points and the whole process took less than 15 seconds.

Two teams, two coaches, two completely different attack patterns. One relies on complex tactics to drive offense, and the other relies on super point guards to drive offense. Which of these two options is better or worse, no one has the answer now. After 48 minutes that year, people will get a preliminary judgment.

Subsequently, the Warriors are still seeking opportunities around the theme of "elevator tactics." David Lee mentioned the high post, but not to pick and roll, but to catch Curry's pass.

Lee holds the ball in the high post. It is obvious that Mark Jackson wants him to be a support point. Don't forget that this guy's passing vision and skills are also very good.

Curry actively ran to take Yiyang away, but Yiyang found that Curry was far away from his teammates this time, and Bogut had been under the basket and did not go out. In this way, there would be no chance to play an elevator tactic.

It is true that Curry can't be used as elevator tactics, but who said that this time the person performing the elevator tactics must be Curry?

Klay Thompson, the white-skinned player with black descent, suddenly ran backwards, and Tony Allen, the defensive master, was caught off guard.

But Tony is always an outside defensive gate, his reaction speed is very fast, and Clay was not thrown away.

Thompson passed by David Lee and struck David Lee. After handing the ball to Klay, David Lee moved a step horizontally, and at the same time Harrison Barnes also moved closer to David Lee. Only then did Tony realize that this is still a **** elevator door tactic!

Tony Allen was stopped by David Lee and Barnes, and even if Tony had great abilities, he couldn't stop Clay's shooting through the bodies of the two players. The latter made a steady shot, but because his toe accidentally stepped on the line, his three-pointer turned into two.

However, two points are better than no points. Clay shook his head in disappointment, but still kept a smile on his face.

"The Mavericks defense has been seriously challenged by the elevator tactics. In my impression, this is the most struggling defensive end of the Mavericks in the first month of the new season. If they hadn't been able to respond on the offensive end, the Warriors It is very likely that the point difference will be opened in the first quarter.

Mike Brin is right, this is indeed the most difficult game for the Mavericks to defend. But there are many reasons for this. On the one hand, the Warriors' tactical execution ability is excellent. On the other hand, it is Mark Jackson's elevator tactics, which is actually a tactic on the verge of fouling. It can even be said that he committed a foul.

If the Warriors’ two screens are forced to "close the door" when the defensive players are tightly attached, the two screens have actually formed a mobile screen.

There was one of the league whistle rules last season: if the defensive player has already taken a shot at the screen, the screen must give the floor space, otherwise it will be a screen foul. If implemented strictly according to this standard, the Warriors' two "closes" just now are enough to blow offensive fouls.

But every referee in the league has its own set of standards. They think the Warriors' screens are acceptable, and the Mavericks can only suffer from this dumb loss.

The players of Carlisle and the Mavericks did not complain about the referee, and the Warriors are effectively using the rules. If the referee blows, they don't use this tactic or use it sparingly. If the referee doesn't blow, they will naturally play the elevator tactics often to win the advantage.

Elevator tactics have actually caused great controversy, but the alliance has not yet come up with a relatively complete system.

In the games after the first quarter, the Warriors still use elevator tactics from time to time. But it’s worth mentioning that today’s referees on duty seem to approve of this tactic very much, and they have not blown a single move screen ~www.novelmtl.com~ In this way, Curry and Thompson have gained a lot of space for three-pointers. These two super shooters seized most of the opportunities.

It wasn't until the Warriors changed to the second team that their three-point rain finally subsided. But the Warriors have already seized the initiative of the game in the US Route Center Arena.

30 to 22, the first quarter ended. With the tolerance of the referee and the precise three-pointers of the Warriors' two guards, the Warriors nearly widened the point difference to double digits on the Mavericks in just 12 minutes!

This result was something most people had never thought of before the game. In the past month, the Mavericks have led their opponents a lot in the first quarter. This is the first time this season, the Mavericks were thrown away by their opponents in the first quarter.

"Stephen Curry scored 12 points in a single quarter and made 3 of 4 three-pointers. It seems that this No. 30 is trying to steal the crown on his head in Dallas!"

People's evaluation of Curry is very high, because only from the first quarter of the game, he did perform better than Yiyang.

"A group of blind referees!" Yiyang whispered to himself in his heart, but he also knew that being behind can't just blame the referee. Also know this, and his coach Carlisle. As long as the team’s tactics are arranged properly, even the referees cannot completely control the game. Only the players themselves can control the basketball court!

"I know it was not easy to play in the first quarter, guys. But believe me, the Warriors won't continue to be arrogant!" After the players were off, Carlisle stood confidently in front of everyone.

"Listen well, in the second quarter, I need you to forget what the **** position is divided. Unlimited defense, I want all of you to change defense infinitely!" Carlisle said as he poked the tactical board hard. There is no offense, which cannot be solved by the Mavericks' defense.
