The Way of the Center

Chapter 381: : The level of the playoffs

Pick-and-roll cooperation in a very small area, even if it is Jordan and Griffin, can not complete such a tactic. "EΩ┡小"" said WwんW. 1XIAOSHUO. COM

Both of these guys have obvious shortcomings and range. Although Griffin worked hard in shooting last summer and made great progress in the mid-range, the CIC still failed to become Griffin's main scoring method.

Because of their technical limitations, Griffin and Jordan's tactical changes on the offensive end are far inferior to that of Angel and Aldridge. Therefore, it is difficult for Griffin and Jordan to make this kind of subtle cooperation between inside and inside.

Pooh Denagro had already begun to think about it, and if he waited until Angel and Aldridge were fully opened, he would think of a solution, it would be too late.

After that, Griffin tried to play one-on-one with Aldridge on the inside. But when he got inside, he found that Anjie was always able to complete the double-team in time.

No way, DeAndre Jordan, a guy who has almost no shooting ability, can't help Griffin open up the space at all. An Jie can safely put him far away, and then wholeheartedly defend the basket!

On the other hand, Aldridge, even though he is much thinner than Griffin, but in individual singles, Aldridge has the advantage.

Griffin's embarrassing wingspan made it impossible for him to interfere with Aldridge's dribble, which was pushing forward. And Aldridge's turn-over jumper also slumped the inexperienced Griffin.

In the regular season, Griffin is thousands of times dazzling than Aldridge. But when it was in the playoffs, Griffin knew that there was too much room for improvement...

After the game, the Trail Blazers gradually took control of the situation. It wasn't until the second team of both sides all appeared on the court that the Clippers finally got back one city.

Like the Trail Blazers, the Clippers also have a sixth man who is not easy to mess with. He is Nick Young who was urgently recruited by the Clippers in the second half of the season!

In the Wizards this season, Nick Young can contribute 16.6 points per game. For a substitute player, this is definitely a statistic that can be called a "level".

After joining the Clippers, Nick Young's performance is still good. This guy can never be influenced by different systems, because in his world, he himself is a system!

This guy prefers to work alone than Jamal Crawford, and it may be difficult for you to get an assist from him in a season. But the scary thing is that this guy can really perform well!

Today, Jamal Crawford's performance is obviously going to be slightly inferior. Courtney Lee's touch is also very average, only hitting 1 goal in 3 shots.

As a result, the Clippers slowly narrowed their points under the leadership of Nick Young. Until the end of the first quarter, the score became 25 to 2o. If there is no Nick Young, there must be a maximum point.

Nick. Such an outstanding swing indeed made the Clippers fans breathe out. However, Pooh Denagro was not at all happy with Nick Young's performance.

why? No matter how great Nick Young is, he is also alone. It is impossible for a team to rely on only one person or a substitute to defeat the opponent. To win, Denagro must make the Clippers lineup efficient. Nick Young alone is not enough for the Clippers to drag the Blazers into the water.

"Your choice of double-teaming against Griffin in the first quarter is very good, but you have to pay attention to DeAndre Jordan's inner cut. As long as he gets a little space, he can make a strong dunk. Griffin's skills It's not rough. Sending an air relay to Jordan is not difficult for him!" During the break, the Blazers' performance in the first quarter was enough to satisfy Ricard. So, compared to Denagro, who was in a scorched state, all Ricard had to do was to check for deficiencies.

"Jamaal, next I want you to defend more seriously. You have given Nick Young too many easy shots. I don't want to see this guy get a higher score than you!" After that, Rikal De rarely said a few words to Crawford alone.

Crawford may be very aggressive offensively, but his absent-minded defense can always anger Ricard. If Nick Young scored a high score today, Jamal Crawford's efficiency on the court would be completely negative.

Crawford just nodded casually, God knows if this guy listened. I hope the playoffs can make this person who fights purely for money put in more effort...

"Griffin, use your body to fight against Aldridge! Strongly hit the basket, even if you are there, you will continue to attack for me! Even if you can't make it, there is a high chance that you can commit a foul! "Denagro knows he doesn't have to worry about Paul much, but the young Griffin, the key to the Clippers' victory, especially needs correct guidance.

And now, Denagro believes that Griffin's body is absolutely sufficient to cope with the entanglement between Angel and Aldridge. Faced with double teams in the first quarter, Griffin either chose to pass or hook. In this way, the efficiency is naturally not improved. What if he uses his body to hit the basket? Anjie is indeed very hard, but don’t forget, Griffin is not soft either!

So at the beginning of the second quarter, Aldridge felt that his defense was not as easy as in the first quarter. Before receiving a pass from Paul, Griffin began to use his body to squeeze inside.

Griffin only needs to worry about whether he can get to a comfortable position, because no matter where you are on the court, Paul can guarantee the ball will be delivered!

Griffin has to go very deep in this ball, and as long as he takes a small step in, he will enter the three-second zone.

In order to prevent the running little Jordan from cutting inside, Anjie's defense range is not as large as in the first quarter. Now that everything is ready, we just wait for Paul to feed the ball in!

Paul strayed a little space through his extremely fast dribble. After that, he started to pass the ball to Blake Griffin, who is now growing up.

Seeing the basketball flying out of Paul's hands, Denagro stood up from the bench. He hoped to take a closer look to see if his new arrangement would work.

however......

"It's Ann! Ann appeared on the passing lane! He intercepted the basketball midway, my God, Ann actually made a guy like Chris Paul make a mistake!" Mike Brin exclaimed, the guard intercepted the center forward. They watched too much of the drama. However, it is really rare for a center to steal a guard!

Even Chris Paul himself couldn't believe his eyes. As a point guard, there are more turnovers than players in other positions, which is normal. After all, their task is to organize the team's offense, and to organize the team's offense requires a lot of passes. A large number of passes represents more risk than others. Therefore, one or two passes in each game are accustomed to Paul.

But being intercepted by a center that suddenly rushed out, Paul would not have thought that he would make a mistake because of this way!

With this ball, An Jie had expected that the final offensive point would be Griffin, if not, Griffin would certainly not struggle so hard to fight for the position.

Since his defense range cannot cover the basket, the easiest way to stop the attack is to keep the ball out of Griffin's hands!

So Anjie ran with Jordan while observing all the actions of Paul. Finally when Paul was about to pass the ball, Anjie saw the right time, stretched out his long arm, and successfully implemented this long-planned plan!

After the steals, if Felton and Matthews weren't advancing too slowly, An Jie would definitely use his precise long pass to make the Blazers play a fast break.

It's a pity that the two guards around him are guys who are more suitable for positional warfare, but are not good at switching offenses. If Westbrook were still with Anjie, the Clippers would have lost two points because of this mistake.

But slowly grinding the ground does not mean that the Trail Blazers will not be able to grasp the opportunity of Paul's mistake. It's just that they spend more time than fast break.

Felton knew that he was not the kind of shocking guard. In fact, Felton's first step is not slow, but his passing and finishing abilities after the breakthrough are not too strong. Instead of blindly breaking through without a plan, and slowly organizing patiently, this is more suitable for his playing style.

The interspersed position of Anjie and Aldridge made Jordan and Griffin puzzled. Today, Ricard decided to defeat the Clippers in an unconventional way!

In the past, Anjie either held the ball in the high post or played singles in the low post. But today, he and Aldridge are like two guards, constantly running to shred the Clippers' defense.

Jordan and Griffin have excellent athletic ability, and it is not difficult for them to keep up with them. But the difficulty is that Anjie and Aldridge's interspersed running positions usually make them appear two defenses and one, while completely missing the other.

This time, Aldridge and An Jie passed by again. This kind of running effect between the inside line and the inside line can't be checked by a pick and roll!

But this time, An Jie suddenly ran back when he passed Aldridge. Griffin thought that Jordan would continue to follow up, so he stuck to Aldridge. And how about little Jordan? He thinks Griffin should switch defenses with himself, so in the face of Anjie's escape, little Jordan has no response.

"Fuck!" Griffin and Jordan stared at each other, then turned back to chase in a unified manner. It's just that at this time, Felton's ball has been thrown into the air, and An Jie, already soaring into the air, received the basketball, and completed a powerful air relay!

The two insiders who were most able to get in the air are now defeated again by An Jie in an air connection!

"Nice cooperation, coach Ricard’s tactical arrangement for this goal is simply exquisite. Of course, Ann’s execution ability is also very high. DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin used their extremely strong sports in the regular season. The ability has provided the fans with wonderful goals. But they must figure out that this is not the regular season. The playoffs are not a place to speak with bounce!" Kenny Smith can see it, De Andrew Jordan and Griffin are the real "regular season players".

After the game ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Griffin and Jordan could not keep up with the offensive and defensive rhythms of Aldridge and Anjie. Even if the athletic ability of these two is the league's top existence, they are still owned by season Anjie and Aldridge, who had experience in the playoffs, played round and round.

Jordan did a shot, but it was also against the breakthrough Jamal Crawford. Facing Anjie, it was very difficult for Jordan to stop him from scoring, let alone block.

After that, Nick Young was as divine as ever. He fired continuously from beyond the three-point line and also made consecutive hits. Faced with this kind of ball, Anjie and Aldridge can do nothing.

It is precisely because of Nick Young that this game can be regarded as keeping the suspense. If it weren't for someone on the bench to stand up, the embarrassed Clippers wouldn't be able to bite the score.

In the end, the Trail Blazers won a temporary halftime victory with a score of 58 to 49.

Although not much behind, Denagro's heart is a little desperate. Because so far, he still can't come up with a decent solution.

Let the Clippers pray that Nick Young can save them a few more times...
