Chapter 134 Mixed Defense

The Dragon King was still lying on the ground, and he was on the spot and wanted to commit a foul of national humiliation. However, when he saw the referee's punishment, he was excited and immediately forgot his original intention. He suddenly stood up and went up to ask the referee loudly: "He elbowed me, didn't you see it? It was an obvious foul, a malicious foul!"

The Clippers fans immediately booed Bosh more violently. The referee felt that Bosh had challenged his authority, so he immediately added a T to the Dragon King who had a saliva on his face and added a technical foul.

Bosh became even more angry and even took off his braces, preparing to reason with the referee.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Raptors players dragged the Dragon King to the sidelines. If another T came, they would be sent out. Bosh might be suspended from the league after the game.

Ji Guomo was slapping his hands and gloating, or fanning the flames. The little fox felt that he was doing well and should be able to hand in the coach. After celebrating this wonderful slam dunk with his teammates, he finally remembered to see his girlfriend.

Taylor Swift was also wearing his No. 9 jersey. When he saw Ji Guomo looking over, he waved the cheer stick in his hand to cheer for his little boyfriend. But soon she became unhappy again. The little British bitch next to him was still being self-indulgent. Taylor Swift finally couldn't help it and choked at Emma Watson: "Do you know the little fox?"

Although Emma Watson felt that the female fans around him were very rude in their attitude, he still answered politely: "Yes, we know, are there any problems?"

Taylor Swift was asked now, but he ran to his mouth for a difficult time but couldn't say it. After all, no matter how much she was too much, she was unreasonable, and she had to take into account her image issues when she was angry.

"No problem!" Taylor Swift said hard, and immediately turned his head and stopped paying attention to the little British bitch.

Emma Watson felt inexplicably. She had a very sharp eye. When she saw Taylor Swift sitting in the front row wearing famous brands, she seemed to be either a star or a rich lady. What's strange is that she doesn't know why she can't get along with herself?

Ji Guoxie made both free throws on the court, and the Clippers had the right to the ball.

This time, Yan Kou made Bosh start to become impatient. Any long-famous star who was so provocative and humiliated by a rookie rookie on the court would want to get it back, and Bosh would be no exception.

However, the Raptors attacked again, and the Clippers defended him became twin brothers. This was nothing, and what was even more unlucky was that Bosh, who was wrongly expected the Pandas's single defense ability, got a big shot at his brother at the basket shortly after, which made him lose his calmness and made his choices no longer reasonable.

At the end of the second quarter, the score was 52:46, and the Clippers led by 6 points to the end of the first half.

Ji Guochou scored 12 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks, Ji Guomo had 13 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, Artest had 12 points, Thomas had 6 points, and Garcia had 6 points.

Chris Bosh of the Raptors scored 13 points and 4 rebounds in the first half, Calderon scored 9 points, TJ Ford scored 8 points, Anthony Parker scored 8 points, and Delfino scored 6 points.

Jeff Van Gundy took the statistics for a long time during the break and shook his head and said, "I found that the Italian No. 1 pick played for 15 minutes in the first half, with 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 2 turnovers and 1 block."

Reggie Miller asked strangely: "Who is that block?"

Magic Johnson joked: "I can't cover Bosh, right?"

After the three of them laughed, they had 0 eggs in the half-time. Even if this No. 1 pick is not a parallel player, at least he is undoubtedly a second-rate player.

The Raptors chose this 0-egg center with the No. 1 pick back then, which seems to be a big mistake now. Aldridge and Brandon Roy are much better than him, and Rajon Rondo and Rudy Guy now seem to show all-star potential. No matter which of these four people is much stronger than the Italian center, the Raptors chose a spaghetti man, who is really keen.

Old Dunleavy was very satisfied with the player's performance in the first half in the locker room. He first praised him for a few words, then changed the subject and asked: "Do you still remember the defensive tactics we practiced recently?"

Ji Guochou's eyes lit up. He knew what Old Dunleavy was talking about. Recently, the team's coaching staff had enriched several offensive tactics for the team, and then put their energy back on defense.

The Clippers' coaching staff was recently inspired by the Celtics who were powerful in the East. This season, the Celtics gathered together the three giants. The first thing they showed was not the gorgeous offense, but their impregnable defense.

The Celtics are now the best team in the league to defend. They rely on a dazzling mixed defense, that is, a defensive formation that combines man-to-man and regional joint defense. At the same time, the Celtics, with extremely high personal tactical qualities, can also change their defensive tactics at will according to their opponents on the court, and skillfully use both joint defense and man-to-man defense.

The defensive system created by former Rockets assistant coach Thibodeau this season has made the Celtics' opponents only score 87 points per game. It is most appropriate to describe it as iron walls and impenetrable.

The Clippers' defense is also very good, but Dunleavy, the old man always feels that their defense can be better without realizing the twins' real potential.

The NBA has allowed joint defense on the court since 2001, but most teams only played a few rounds when necessary, and there are basically no teams that have been using joint defense. Neither the Suns nor the Celtics are real joint defense, but a mixed defense.

The NBA's three-second zone and reasonable collision zone are the natural nemesis of joint defense. Under such rules, the middle lane will inevitably be exposed. Once you encounter All-stars with strong breakthrough capabilities such as Wade, Paul, and Parker, you will easily be broken through the defense line from the middle lane.

The Celtics are because of Garnett and the Spurs have Duncan. Both of them can defend the defensive end of the middle one by one, so these two teams are always good at playing mixed defense and can often use joint defense on the court to deal with superstars like the Gorilla.

The Clippers now have Duncan and Garnett Jr. These two big men with defensive footsteps and speeds are not inferior to those of the No. 3. What will happen if they play a mixed defense similar to the Celtics or play joint defense on the court for a long time?

Old Dunleavy was excited to think about it. The team has been practicing this kind of mixed defense during this period. Today, it is just right to see how the effect is when dealing with the Raptors, which are not very strong.

"In the second half, Brother Pandas kept a close eye on Bosh. Others used regional defense, and we would press on whoever took the ball. Everyone should pay attention to assisting in defense and making up for leaks, actively move, and the formation should change with the basketball movement. As long as we play this tactic well, we will definitely enter the playoffs."

The players of the Clippers are all guys who are good at defense. Whether Artest, Percy, Garcia or Black Parker, they all know what excellent defense can bring to them. They immediately responded to the old Dunleavy's call and responded loudly: "Defense... Victory... Champion..."

In the second half, the Clippers attacked first, Artest cut into the basket and caused a foul, and two free throws widened the gap to 8 points.

The Raptors attacked, and the Clippers quickly moved into defense.

Jeff Van Gundy saw the changes in the Clippers at a glance and opened his mouth and said, "They changed the formation. Is this a regional joint defense?"

Reggie Miller and Magic Johnson are also people with stinginess, and it can be seen that the Clippers' defensive formation is completely different from the first half.

Bosh was stared at by Ji Guoqiu, it was nothing, and the same was true in the first half.

But Raptors point guard Calderon immediately discovered the difference. The Clippers' formation formed a clamping force on him. He didn't feel dribbling outside the three-point line, but as soon as he entered the three-point line, the opponent's defense rushed over like a tide, and it felt like defensive players were everywhere.

Calderon reacted quickly and immediately got the ball when he knew something was wrong. Anthony Parker received the basketball from the wing.

The Clippers' defense line moved quickly, rushing towards Anthony Parker like a wave.

Anthony Parker stood outside the right wing three-point line. As soon as he received the basketball, Ji Guomeng and Garcia rushed over, and the two doubled the Raptors' shooting guard together.

"Oops!"

When the Raptors' Sam Mitchell saw the Clippers' defense, he immediately knew that it was not good. He knew the best how much the Raptors' players were. However, suddenly encountering such a high-intensity defense, he would probably be over!

Anthony Parker quickly passed the ball to his teammates under the double-team of the two, but the Clippers' defense had all been transferred. The moment he was waiting for the ball, Black Parker, who was prepared, reached out to break the pass, and the Clippers counterattacked...

The Clippers quickly turned into the offensive, and Ji Guochou immediately abandoned Bosh and joined the counterattack ranks. The three Clippers quickly stepped down, and Garcia finally scored a goal with a layup.
