Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 949: [Easy first round, lagging behind]

The first round of the showdown of the Sun did not have any suspense, and swept the Grizzlies easily.

The Grizzlies' flank defense is too poor. Guo Xu didn't make much effort. He passed the ball after halftime and helped his teammates find confidence. It was a preseason style of play.

After Guo Xu reduced his shot, the outside required people to stand up and hold the ball. In the second game, Roy broke out, scoring a career high of 43 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, shooting more than 70% from the field 7 of 14 shots.

The Grizzlies' starting shooting guard was Ronnie Brewer, a 201CM tall, 100kg weight swingman who was severely beaten by Roy.

Brewer is very hard to play. He has been a starter for the Jazz for two seasons. After leaving the Jazz, he slipped and the lateral movement slowed down. One of his fatal weaknesses is the shooting posture. When he was a kid, he broke his arm in a terrible car accident. Now his right elbow still can't be fully extended, so the shooting posture is very strange.

No. 2 Roy has an absolute advantage, averaging 27 points per game in the series, Brewer can not adapt to his rhythm, the substitute James Posey defensive effect is even worse.

Paul Gasol is the Grizzlies only player who can play well, averaging 19.5 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Randolph was greatly reduced by Marc Gasol's defense efficiency, shooting only 41.7%.

In the last game, Randolph wanted to hold a watermelon knife on the neck of Gasol and shouted to the opposite side: "If you guard me again, I will kill your brother with a knife."

Randolph's main scoring method is a strong low post, a mid-range shot is just average, and Gasol Jr. is best at preventing low post.

His main defender Randolph didn't need to jump, against the dominant, and constantly used long arms to interfere with the shot, which made Randolph more headache than a block.

Guarded the important attack points inside, Guo Xu then blocked Mike Conley's breakthrough, the Grizzlies tactics left only Gasol's inside countermeasures. Gasol broke Ibaka but could not lead the team to win, averaging 22 points per game.

After the end of the season, the Grizzlies are ready to rebuild. The "double bears" cannot lead the team to win the championship. As they grow older, their status will gradually decline. It is better to take advantage of their trading value and return to the young and promising. Player training.

After a few days of rest, the sun waited for the opponent in the second round.

What is surprising is that it is not the Warriors who have a better record in the regular season and the home advantage, but the Lakers.

The reputation of the players is undoubtedly the winner of the Warriors. Kobe and Bynum have all been selected for this year's Western Conference All-Star starting. However, the Warriors didn't cooperate well. The positions of multiple players overlapped. Only Curry could start a three-point firepower.

The Lakers used man-to-man defense, resolutely single defense, Ellis entangled Curry to interfere with his three-point shot, Battier against Kobe, Joe Johnson defended Roll Deng, Bosh against Brand.

Bogut is recognized as an excellent meat shield. In the penalty area, he did not dare to say that he would not be able to open the door. 90% of the centers are not good at singles.

Bynum has good stats for the Lakers this year, and has a direct relationship with his teammates' defensive attraction. He usually faces single defense, relying on physical fitness and back skills to play beautiful data. It is not easy to play against Bogut Bynum and cannot easily squeeze into the penalty area by force. When his position is relatively outside, teammates rarely pass him.

Bynum is not good. Substitute center Greg Monroe can't play better. He has insufficient strength and insufficient experience. He averaged 6.8 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist in 16 minutes per game.

Warriors are also single defense tactics, "Little General" Johnson will be singles and single defense, the game has become a competition between the two sides to score efficiency.

Bryant averaged 39 minutes per game, shooting 44.6%, 28.3% three-point shooting, averaging 25 points per game, scoring 30 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.4 steals, leading the Warriors 2 to 4 out of the first round.

Although Kobe's shooting percentage is good, but the three-pointer lowered the overall shooting rate, averaging only 5 goals per game can only score 1.4 goals.

Battier was caught on the outside to prevent Kobe from blocking the eye. When Bryant broke through, the Warriors players would wrap around the penalty area, and the poor shot would be shot. Battier was blasted, Kobe played two points but was not enough to lead the team to win.

Curry was actively running, but he often ran out of position ball through the cover but couldn't pass. Kobe was confident to pick up Battier with a mid-range shot, and he wouldn't pass if the opponent didn't come to wrap him.

On the Internet, Ke Mi continued to exert psychological pressure on the second grade Curry, saying that he was a defensive black hole, and he was almost silly.

After the Warriors were eliminated, Comey's argument was simple. It was Curry's fault to lose. He was a defensive black hole. Kobe tried his best. He forced a shot with 2 or 3 players and averaged 30 points per game. His personal ability was not black.

33-year-old Kobe is still very strong and can play for a long time, but his performance in the last quarter is always not as good as the first three quarters. He made 1 of 4 shots, 2 of 6 shots, and 3 of 7 shots ... When the Lakers need to stand out and score at the end of the game, he basically has this kind of performance.

In Guo Xu's previous life, the Lakers VS Mavericks series, Kobe Bryant veteran Kidd also had a 45% shooting rate and a 53% true shooting rate, which is almost the same as now. The Lakers were swept out of the Mavericks.

Just look at scoring efficiency and true shooting percentage. Kobe and Ellis are not much different. The Ellis series can also average 20.3 points and 3 assists per game, shooting 43.6% from the field. His three-point percentage was 32.1% better than Kobe, averaging 1.4 goals per game.

The key for the Lakers to win is the young prince Bosh of the CIC. His counterpoint Brand has the upper hand steadily, pulls out the cover and catches the ball accurately. He has a large defensive range, and likes to prevent pick-and-roll to force his opponent's defender to the periphery, limiting the Warriors' breakthrough.

A team has four people who play on the low post and mid-range shots. There is only one 3-pointer. The lineup defects are too obvious. Curry is the most indispensable person. But some Comet can firmly believe that Curry is a waste wood. He dragged Kobe's hind legs and caused the Warriors to lose.

Curry series scored 14.7 points and 5 assists, shooting 49% from the field, shooting 45.5% from the 3-point range, averaging 2.1 three-pointers per game, and the true shooting rate was 60.5%.

Is still soft, and Comey said that Curry could not help Kobe to share the offensive pressure at a critical moment ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ He dared to steal steals most of the time and only averaged 11.4 goals in the series. What's even worse is that Curry, as a defender, barely breaks the ball and does not break the ball.

Feeling familiar with the ball, Comet suggested that the Warriors trade Curry in the summer for Westbrook in the Thunder. In this way, the team ’s breakthrough will become very sharp, and both the fast break and the positional battle will be solved. The Warriors It will definitely impact the championship.

To really trade like this, the five starting shooting hot spots are all concentrated in the low post and the rim. The opponent who can absolutely scare trembles and shrinks in the restricted area.

Come wants to let the Warriors die, and of course the management will not listen to them doing such stupid things.

Even the seriously overvalued Johnson coach knew that the Warriors did not make a three-pointer, so he reduced Roaldeng's playing time and allowed Redick, Curry, and Kobe to be together at a certain time. When the three of them go together, the team has the highest scoring efficiency.

After entering the playoffs, Redick improved his playing time to 26 minutes, averaging 10 points and 1.7 assists, shooting 39.7 percent from the field and shooting 1.5 goals.

The shortcomings of this play are also obvious, and Redick can't help Joe Johnson. Kobe had to restrict Battier and could not help Redick defend. He had to focus on the offensive end.

The media generally gave the Lakers players and coach Phil Jackson a high rating. They believed that "Zen Master" maximized the strengths of the disciples. Without Kobe, the Lakers can play a triangle attack.

ESPN ’s argument is the most controversial. They suggested that the Warriors trade Kobe, saying that Kobe could not lead the team to win ...
