Although the Warriors are also a fast-paced team, their various passes, cuts and movements are actually very complicated.
This requires that their pace must not be too fast.
Once the pace is too fast, they are more likely to make mistakes.
Both sides made many mistakes and missed shots at the same time, and Curry's ability to catch counterattacks is naturally not as strong as it was at his peak.
The main thing is not having the ability to make all teammates better.
Therefore, when the first half ended, the Lakers had opened the point difference to a full 20 points.
Although Cole called another timeout in the middle, trying to slow down the team a little, maintain their own rhythm, and not fall into the Lakers' rhythm.
But playing with a team of this style, it's hard not to fall into his rhythm.
When the Suns were at their peak, so many teams and coaches knew not to let their teams fall into the Suns' rhythm.
But a few teams have succeeded.
The players on the Suns' court have always been in a state of extreme excitement and their movements are extremely fast.
This stimulated their opponents to become very excited and move extremely fast.
And they have a lot of fast breaks. Just imagine, if you compress the original 24-second attack time into seven seconds, the faster the speed, the more mistakes will be made.
When you see them making mistakes and there is a fast break opportunity, don't you go for the fast break?
And as soon as you start a fast break, you have already fallen into their rhythm.
Therefore, when the Warriors faced the Lakers who suddenly started to hit the ground running, they were temporarily stunned.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the huge difference on the scoreboard.
No one could have imagined that without James and the Warriors with thick eyebrows, the Lakers would lead the Warriors by 20 points at halftime.
When the Lakers players left the game, their faces were filled with excitement.
James welcomed Wang Yi like a returning king.
Vogel hugged Wang Yi and said in his ear: "Run and gun is really good, Wang, run and gun can really defeat the Warriors."
The commentators on the sidelines were all in disbelief.
Silver-haired Grant kept shaking his head: "The Lakers suddenly started running and gunning. It's unbelievable. A team that has never used run and gun suddenly started running and gunning, and the effect was so good. It's like something out of a novel."
A unique plot.”
The bearded Gartman shook his head in sync with his partner: "This is really unbelievable. There has never been a team in the NBA that has never used a certain tactic before and suddenly used it. This one
The Lakers are just amazing."
Ke Fan had a smile on his face and excitement in his eyes.
"The Lakers haven't used the run-and-gun tactic all season, and suddenly it works so well. No one believes it if they say they haven't practiced it. Teacher Yang Yi, do you think the Lakers have secretly practiced the run-and-gun tactic?"
Yang Yi looked at the replay on the big screen, thought for a moment, and replied:
"If you look at the effect, many people will definitely think that the Lakers have practiced it. But from the actual situation on the court, I can't see any sign that the Lakers have practiced it. The Suns' running and gunning back then
Do you remember the tactics? Although they are fast, there are many small tactics behind the speed. Although these small tactics are very simple, they include screens, pick-and-rolls, etc."
"But judging from what happened on the court just now, the Lakers don't have those tactics at all, they just go fast."
"They didn't cooperate with pick-and-rolls during the fast break. Even if they occasionally had some coordination, it was all impromptu."
"So I think the Lakers have never practiced run and gun before."
Ke Fan was a little puzzled: "This is very puzzling. A tactic that I haven't practiced before can actually be so effective when used on the field for the first time?"
Yang Yi pondered again, and finally his eyes fell on Wang Yi on the big screen again.
"I think the Lakers can play a run-and-gun tactics, and Wang Yi's role is crucial."
"What is the core of the run-and-gun tactic? He is a top field control master. Although Wang Yi has never shown the potential of a top field control master before, judging from the rounds just now, his field control ability is indeed very strong. Especially
His ability to seize opportunities during those fast breaks was simply amazing."
"Hit passes across half the court, behind-the-back passes while on the move. Fake shots and real passes that dodge defenders."
"There are even some assists that are not directly assisted by him, but passed to open teammates after passing the ball once or even twice. These are enough to show that he has top-level field control ability. This is indeed quite surprising."
Ke Fan nodded: "Teacher Yang Yi's analysis makes sense. So if we look at the second half from the perspective of the Warriors, how should they deal with the Lakers' running and gunning?"
Yang Yi smiled: "Actually, the whole world knows how to deal with run-and-gun, which is to slow down the rhythm. The Lakers like to play run-and-gun and play at a fast pace, so we should try our best to wait for about 20 seconds in each offense.
The tempo drops, which will make it very difficult for the Lakers."
"But it's easier said than done, otherwise the Suns wouldn't have had few opponents in the league."
"Let's just look at Cole's adaptability and the execution ability of the Warriors players."
Inside the Warriors locker room.
All the players were sitting on chairs, all with dull expressions.
They were all in a state of confusion and were stunned by the Lakers.
They really couldn't figure it out. They originally thought that the Lakers were missing their two main players and they would easily win them. However, it turned out to be exactly the opposite. The Lakers, without James and the thick eyebrows, actually led them by 20 points at halftime.
This is really hard for them to accept.
Cole didn't speak, he just kept writing and drawing on the tactical board.
He filled up the tactics board and then erased it, then shook his head, filled up the tactics board again, and erased it again.
This was repeated several times, and finally his hand paused slightly.
Looking back:
"Now the Lakers' Wang Yi is the core of their run-and-gun tactics, so as long as we restrict Wang Yi, everything else will be solved."
"Clay, you only have to do one thing on the defensive end in the second half, and that is to keep an eye on Wang Yi."
"When we finish the offense, you don't have to think about grabbing rebounds or retreating quickly. You have only one task, to mark Wang Yi. No matter whether we can grab rebounds or not, whether we score or not, as long as we
After we complete the offense, you have to appear in front of Wang Yi immediately to prevent him from passing the ball quickly and dribbling the ball quickly through the half court."
