Chapter 95 Reversal
Author: Different Sparks
In fact, when he got the Spurs' starting lineup, Chen Dazhuang also discussed this issue with Smith and others.
It's not that Dior is a star, but it's the characteristics of Dior.
Boris Diaw is 2.03 meters tall. He is characterized as a ball-controlling power forward. He is said to be able to play anywhere on the court. Although there may be some moisture in this, it at least illustrates one point, that is, this guy can at least hold the ball.
, In addition, the information collected by the team staff also shows that although this guy is inconspicuous in height, his defensive ability is actually very good, and he also has a certain three-point ability and good movement.
After a discussion later, Da Zhuang and Smith both agreed that this guy was the tactic that Popovich targeted when Yi Jianlian mentioned the high pick-and-roll and then shot from the outside.
The game started quickly with the referee's whistle.
To be honest, the current tactics of the Timberwolves are somewhat similar to the infinite position-changing tactics of the Rockets and Warriors that Chen Dazhuang saw in his previous life, but there are some differences due to discussions between Smith and others.
Because most of the shots from the outside during offense are completed by Bennett and Yi Jianlian, Carter and Rubio's role is more to provide support and run without the ball to involve the opponent's defense.
Oden's role on the inside is more reflected in his defense once the situation cannot be opened up on the outside.
Obviously Popovich has done special research on the Timberwolves, and as discussed before the game, Diaw's movement speed is very good among the players in the paint. His task on the court is to attack Yi Jian.
Even on guard.
However, in the few rounds after the opening, Diaw's height disadvantage against Yi Jianlian was amplified. To Da Zhuang's relief, Yi Jianlian played very well in today's game without the support of buffs.
However, Bennett was completely suppressed by Leonard.
In addition, Carter had the upper hand against Danny Green.
But Rubio was a little embarrassed when faced with Parker's impact.
Therefore, after the game started, the Timberwolves gradually fell into a slight disadvantage. Fortunately, Carter and Yi Jianlian's shots were barely able to prevent the Spurs from widening the gap.
Da Zhuang on the sidelines also shook his head helplessly, this is the Spurs, they are getting more and more demonic.
As time went by, the competition also entered a fierce stage.
And Popovich was already sitting on the sidelines as steady as a rock. When Da Zhuang turned his head to look at each other, Popovich happened to be looking at him too. When the two looked at each other, Popovich's face showed
smiled.
This guy, damn it, wait and see if you can still laugh.
At this time, the game had reached the end of the third quarter, and the Spurs basically had the situation on the field under control.
Finally, with the referee's whistle, the third quarter ended.
87 to 74, the Spurs will enter the fourth quarter with a 13-point lead over the Timberwolves.
"The game has reached this point, Zhang Zhi, what do you think is the main reason why the Timberwolves are lagging behind? Do the Timberwolves still have hope of winning?"
"The main problem is that in the third position, Bennett can be said to have been beaten by Leonard on both offense and defense. This can be fully reflected from the data of the two players. Leonard scored 31 in the three quarters.
points, while Bennett only had 11 points. Three of these eleven points were free throws, and he was even worse at 1 of 7 three-pointers. His collapse had to affect other positions, but the point difference was not big.
, there is still hope of chasing points, but if we can’t solve Leonard’s problem, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to solve.”
"Well, but Yi Jianlian's performance today was very good. The reason why the Timberwolves can still maintain hope of reversal is that Yi Jianlian's performance is very critical. He scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in the three quarters. He is also the current scorer of the Timberwolves.
The highest player, and Allen's shooting percentage today is also very high. It seems that Diaw, whom Popovich sent specifically to target Allen, can be said to be completely defeated by Allen."
"Yes, the most important thing is that we can see from this game that Allen has grown very quickly after going to the Timberwolves. His timing of shots, including physical confrontation, is very good."
At this time, while everyone was discussing the game, the break between quarters was over, both sides returned to the court, and the fourth quarter officially began.
Da Zhuang did not put on the prepared trump card immediately. After all, the attribute time given by the system was only ten minutes, plus the hidden conditions, so Da Zhuang still wanted to wait patiently for two minutes to pass in the fourth quarter.
It is also guaranteed to be foolproof.
Two minutes passed quickly, after Leonard once again hit a mid-range shot over Bennett's head.
93 to 78, a score difference of 15 points!
The Timberwolves chose to pause.
After the timeout ended, Popovich was confused by the Timberwolves' cool moves.
Because the Timberwolves chose to make substitutions, Middleton replaced Carter and Budinger replaced Bennett.
Moreover, when the two of them were about to go on stage, Da Zhuang even pulled them from side to side and whispered a few words.
Watching Carter and Bennett leave the field, Popovich frequently looked at the Timberwolves bench. He really didn't understand what Chen Dazhuang was doing. There were still ten minutes left in the fifteen-minute period. There was absolutely hope.
At this time, the main force was replaced. What kind of operation was this, or was he preparing to give up the game? Popovich was confused for a while.
At this time, after the substitution was completed, Da Zhuang turned his head again and glanced at Popovich who was looking at him. This time it was Da Zhuang's turn to smile at the old man.
Old guy, I hope you brought the quick-acting Jiuxin Pills with you today, so don’t rush over there later!
"I chose to make substitutions at this time, and two people were replaced in one substitution. What does this mean? This is a bit unreasonable. A fifteen-point difference is not the end of the world. Why do we need to substitute the main players?"
"Could it be that Carter or Bennett are injured? But that's not right. How could they be injured and not be replaced until now? Is it the Timberwolves' trump card? Is this a surprise move?"
"It's also possible. Budinger has gained a reputation as a genius this season."
At this moment, the two commentators in the Penguin live broadcast room were also confused by Da Zhuang's substituting operation.
What is a nerve knife? It means that I am afraid of myself if I go crazy.
After the game restarted, Budinger immediately explained what a nerve knife is through one attack and one defense, and also told everyone that Chen Dazhuang did not give up the game by replacing him.
Chapter completed!
