0659 Uninjured Peak Leonard
After the first battle, the king got two days of free time.
Su Yang arranged a day off to discuss the production direction of the "detail" program with Kobe, and decided to launch a series of NBA tactical details changes, starting with Minneapolis Lakers head coach Pollard inventing the most basic pick-and-roll tactics, turning the program into a weekly update. While ensuring the quality of the program, it can better attract fans' attention and exceed tens of millions of fans as soon as possible.
The media company founded by the two also held a meeting to attract investment, and the ultimate goal was to build the company into a basketball talent training base.
On the 18th, the Kings team resumed training.
The first game focuses on the RaagoKeep series, and the whole team focuses on practicing. Su Yang has developed a Strong series of tactics, which is combined with the transfer of strength and weakness of the triangle offense to fully utilize George's super maneuver.
During the explanation, Su Yang said bluntly: "Originally, this tactic was revolving around Jokic to adapt to the double tower lineup formed by him and Cousins. Unfortunately, such a combination is really difficult to defend against pick-and-rolls. Let George fight now..."
Mike Broden nodded repeatedly when he heard this.
They all understood that it was a wonderful tactic.
Just imagine, the Kings' five-outside formation starts, Jokic is at the bottom corner on the left, Cousins is at the bottom corner on the right, and the defender runs across the center line and stops at the top of the arc to see the opportunity to pass the ball to Jokic who runs from the bottom corner on the left with the help of double cover. After Jokic gets the ball, he can shoot, or pass Cousins who easily gets the right side, or assists to cut the basket, and has many routines.
The key is to arrange it like this, Jokic and Cousins have room to play, and other Kings players can easily cooperate.
"George can fight well, too..."
Assistant coach Dee Brown habitually praised him, but everyone knew that George's organizational ability and double-teaming ability were far inferior to Jokic, but that deal was not a loss. After all, George could share Curry's pressure and could still switch defenses unlimitedly.
The main king's offensive firepower overflowed too much.
After the training, the whole team had a dinner at the base and watched the classic old film "The Road to Glory". Cousins and others didn't like it very much. They bluntly said that the shooting method was to portray white people as saviors, and that black people were allowed to use their own style of playing.
It seems like the previous restrictions and later permission is such a great thing. It is obviously a mistake in coaching before.
On the 19th the next day, the king fought against the Trail Blazers again.
With the previous lesson, Su Yang commanded the double-team of Lillard at the beginning to test the referee's call standards. He found that the referee's call was normal and decisively instructed the whole team to continue to double-team. Lillard was soon miserable, and only made 1 hit in 8 attempts.
Lillard has many good solutions. He is short and has a light weight. The Trail Blazers inside cannot provide potential support.
After the first quarter, the Kings led 33 to 17.
After the game entered the second quarter, the referee still did not favor the Trail Blazers for yelling. Lillard gave up his main attack and acted more as bait. However, the Kings coaching staff had a thorough research on the Trail Blazers tactics, and the Kings players also had a lot of corresponding training.
Facing McCollum, who was the main attacker, George defended himself in one single way throughout the whole process, successfully allowing McCollum to make 2 of 6 shots, unable to affect the situation.
After returning from the third quarter at halftime, the Trail Blazers kept playing early and snatching the Kings' defensive formation. Lillard took the opportunity to take 8 extra long three-pointers, but he actually hit three times, but he lost more points on the defensive end, which was a waste of money.
The Kings entered the fourth quarter with a 22-point lead. The Trail Blazers took the initiative to withdraw their main force and invested in advance to admit defeat.
The game was too easy to win. Curry clocked in and got off work in the third quarter and scored the highest 19 points, and Lillard against him scored 15 points.
The king gets three days off again.
Su Yang met with representatives of the lawyer team again to ensure that if Trump causes trouble, it will not affect the normal operation of the company. He also joined forces with several other social media companies to lobby and restrict the potential voices of celebrities such as Trump and establish an emergency response mechanism.
Unexpectedly, Facebook and Twitter told him righteously: No matter what Trump says, there will be no restrictions.
Su Yang was too lazy to try more, so he turned to pay attention to the matchups of several other teams in the east and west, and found that the Spurs beat the Jazz 2-0. Judging from the video summary, the Spurs played reasonable basketball, which was several times higher than the Jazz’s played reasonable basketball, and their level and lineup were several times higher.
The Rockets also led the Thunder 2-0. Harden seemed to be very upset about Westbrook's MVP. He scored 37 points in the first game and took the initiative to participate in assisting defense, which forced Westbrook to get 11 mistakes in the game, helping Westbrook achieve a four-double data.
The Warriors also had a 2-0 hit and lacked Paul's Clippers, and Durant scored 90 points in two games.
There was no surprise in the east, the Cavaliers and Raptors showed super power, and the Bulls and Wizards were in the second level.
On the 22nd, the Kings challenged the Trail Blazers away.
Maybe he has a bonus when he returns to Moda Center. The Kings' defense of Lillard cannot be too fierce. Antetokounmpo switched twice to prevent interception, and suffered a blocking foul twice. He could only raise his hand and slid to chase and interfere with it. Lillard scored 15 points in the first quarter.
The Trail Blazers are also very good at defensively, and they don’t worry even if they are called fouls. Especially McCollum, who made two fouls in 30 seconds, still calmly stayed on the court and continued to play, as if he had a calm mind, calmly helped the Trail Blazers lead by 7 points in the first quarter.
The game entered the second quarter substitute stage. The Kings' brothers Grant and Covington believed that they understood the referee's standards and also adopted large-scale defensive actions. As a result, they each took two fouls in a row, watching their opponent stand on the free throw line.
The Kings' supposedly strong substitute lineup failed to narrow the gap, but instead lost more points and lost 13 points in the first half.
Mike Brown and other assistant coaches were so anxious that they criticized the referee.
Su Yang doesn't care.
After halftime, I returned to the locker room and directly instructed the use of the "misleading" series of tactics in the second half, as well as the Strong Triangle Offensive series of tactics. After all, it is the home court of the Trail Blazers of the Others. If you can do not have physical contact, don't expect the referee to help.
The third quarter started immediately, and the Kings and the generals were in a slap, but the Trail Blazers still couldn't crack it.
By the time the third quarter of the game was over, the score difference had narrowed to only 1 point left, and the key kings and generals all played out.
The situation in the fourth quarter was still the same, and the referee also returned to normal calls. The Kings gradually overtook and established an absolute advantage. Curry first made a three-pointer and then hit four consecutive free throws, helping the Kings win 118-112.
In the whole game, Curry scored 34 points, 8 assists and 2 steals, and his personal performance was complete, Rard scored 31 points, 4 assists.
After the game, he attended a press conference and talked about how he viewed the decision of the NBA to announce that all individual awards will be awarded after the finals. Su Yang said: "I agree with the league's approach, which can better create suspense and topics, but I suggest that the award selection should also be reorganized, especially the FMVP. It is too hasty to make decisions based on a series of games..."
The interview was quickly sorted out and released as news.
Many fans agree with Su Yang's proposal, believing that the randomness of the FMVP selection is indeed too great. Some fans think that it doesn't matter if there are occasionally players who are not so convinced to win awards, but they agree to select FMVP based on their performance throughout the playoffs.
After a day off, King 24 fights the Trail Blazers again.
Faced with a 3-0 situation, the referee did not continue to call any more than urges. At the same time, the Trail Blazers did not show their determination to fight to the death. They both stretched out on both sides of the offense and defense. The Kings excitedly scored 45-22 in the first quarter, directly laying the foundation for winning.
In the end, the Kings defeated the Trail Blazers 127-101, and swept 4-0 in the series to advance to the Western Conference semi-finals.
Curry didn't play in a minute in the fourth quarter, played 29 minutes in the game, scored 37 points and 8 assists, and his efficiency value was full.
The whole team flew back to Sa City overnight, and after a day of rest, they watched the game online. As a result, the Spurs and the Jazz played 3-1.
If the Spurs want to advance, they have to play at least one more game. The Kings may need to take a full week of rest.
Chapter completed!
