Chapter 679 Are You Ready?
After making up his mind, Su Yang stood up, gestured and shouted to remind him to start high-intensity defense and fast-paced offense.
The king's generals had to do as they were ordered to, and directly made a fast break. Antetokounmpo dribbled the ball, crossed the center line in two seconds, turned around and gave it to Curry who followed up and reached the right sideline, and then started to run to the top of the arc to serve Covington. Make a cross screen, and Covington takes the opportunity to start and run to the right wing, make a WIDE screen for George who is oncoming from the right bottom corner, and then George screens for Curry.
With three consecutive screens, the Cavaliers' defensive formation was in chaos.
Curry scanned the half court and chose to split the ball to the right wing. George caught the ball and faced Love.
The basketball slammed into the net hollowly.
The cheers broke out immediately, and although the King's attack covered three consecutive times, the total time was only 14 seconds.
The Cavaliers turned to launch a counterattack. Irving ran the ball across the center line and passed it to the left wing. JR caught the ball and hung it on the left waist.
Love had just received the basketball and was not ready to hit Covington with his back. George next to him had already double-teamed.
That is the high-intensity defense that Su Yang mentioned.
Try to force the Cavaliers to make mistakes.
In a hurry, Love quickly turned around and put the ball straight into the middle, and TT Thomp took the ball and started to rush to the basket. However, Antetokounmpo followed him like a shadow, and there was no chance for a layup. He had to circle around to observe his position, pretending to raise his hand to pass back , In fact, he bent his knees to accumulate strength.
Maybe a little anxious, Antetokounmpo hurriedly took off to block the shot after being cheated, and the whole person was pressed on TT Thompson.
The referee blew his whistle for a foul and signaled the Cavaliers to reorganize the offense. Antetokounmpo slapped himself on the head in frustration.
Seeing this, Su Yang applauded and shouted: "Don't worry, don't worry, you've done a good job, just keep it up, keep it up!"
The increase in foul probability is a side effect of high-intensity defense, which cannot be avoided. High risks and high returns coexist.
The large central screen synchronously gave a playback. When Antetokounmpo was falling, TT Thompson put down the ball and hugged Antetokounmpo. There is also mutual aid.
The fans applauded loudly.
The Cavaliers immediately re-opened the ball, starting with the box tactics. LeBron took the ball from the left elbow and looked behind him. Fei Antetokounmpo, caused another foul.
Antetokounmpo fouled twice in a row.
It's all real fouls, nothing wrong with it.
Still in a hurry, the high-intensity defensive strategy is like this, every ball must be contested is likely to cause a chain reaction, and it will not be used easily.
Assistant coach Mike Brown subconsciously turned around and prepared to call Cousins to come on stage. Su Yang raised his hand to signal no. The main thing is that Antetokounmpo did not foul in the first quarter. Now the impact of two consecutive fouls is normal, as long as you pay attention to the next step, but without Antetokounmpo, high-intensity defense Strategies are difficult to develop, and fast-paced offense and defense are also difficult to implement. Since you choose to take risks, be bold and don't need to adjust your strategy halfway.
Amidst boos all over the court, Love stood on the free throw line, and the first free throw sounded like an iron, but the second free throw went out of the basket.
George took off and got the rebound. Curry caught the ball and turned around to advance.
Between the lightning and the flint, Curry put the ball straight to the free throw line, disassembled the Antetokounmpo who was running down to catch the ball and rushed to the basket. Love quickly shrank from the short corner on the right to intercept, but the pick-and-roll that Antetokounmpo had practiced for a long time before came into play. , The basketball is divided into an air-cut Covington.
With a bang, a dunk was received empty-handed.
The King officially overtook the Cavaliers 44 to 43. Antetokounmpo's pick-and-roll and Cousins cut to attack the basket strategy formulated before the game took effect, but the position of Cousins was replaced by Covington. Antetokounmpo's shooting routine.
Taking advantage of the dead ball, the Cavaliers replaced Irving with Shumpert.
The assistant coach West immediately reminded Su Yang, who heard the words and thought for a while, and asked himself ecstatically, "Could it be that the knights have returned to the singles routine?"
The Cavaliers took the lead in the first energy. Apart from the two steals, another important reason is that Irving continued to play off-ball routines for the fourth consecutive game. At the beginning of the game, he caused LaVine to foul by running without the ball. Now at the critical moment of the second quarter, using Shumpert Replacing Irving may be to maximize the power of LeBron's system and improve Curry's defense by the way, but that has a great impact on the Cavaliers' mobility.
Shumpert couldn't do what Irving did. After circling around, he caught the ball and shot quickly. He was only good at catching the ball and making three-pointers.
As long as you shoot at a fixed point, the difficulty of defense is greatly reduced.
While thinking about it, Antetokounmpo and George double-teamed together, LeBron had no choice but to pass the ball, and TT violated the law when receiving the ball.
The two teams switch possession of the ball.
Curry rushed to the right wing with the ball, and directly broke through to the left with George's cover.
Boom!The three-pointer hit the circle and entered the net.
Cheers erupted in the arena, the Cavaliers hurriedly launched a counterattack, LeBron took the ball and was surrounded by three people. In the chaos, he threw the ball to the left corner, and Shumpert caught the ball and made a three-pointer, and the basketball hit the backboard The sideline hit the iron outrageously, and the Kings got the rebound.
The counterattack suddenly started, George dribbled the ball to the right wing, pretended to use double screens to break through to the top of the arc, but continued to go to the right, misplaced to face Thompson, strode into the paint, and faced Shumpert's supplementary defense. Basket, resulting in a thug foul.
There were cheers in the arena, George made the first free throw, and the Cavaliers used Irving to replace Shumpert at the same time, seeming to find a mistake.
Seeing this, Su Yang felt quite regretful. The loopholes were filled before they were fully utilized, and Tai Lunlu's on-the-spot reaction was okay.
George also hit the second free throw. The Kings led the Cavaliers 49 to 43 and played a wave of 10-0 attacks.
The two teams switched offense and defense. Irving dribbled the ball and ran across the half court without calling tactics. TT lifted the ball up and passed it to LeBron on the left.
The screen was then formed, and LeBron started to break through, but the off-ball running of the rest of the Cavaliers disappeared. They all stood in place and waited, making LeBron unable to break through. The basketball suddenly passed to Love in the left corner, and Love Fu was not prepared and almost missed.
Su Yang watched and laughed on the spot, wondering what happened to Tyronn Lue, could it be that the last game where the main player was off the ball belonged to a blind cat and a dead mouse?
Seeing that the 24-second violation was about to occur, the referee suddenly whistled and punished Covington for pushing and fouling LeBron, and the Cavaliers kicked off again.
Su Yang raised his head and looked at the large central screen. The playback showed that Covington had indeed exerted force with his hands, but he was still impetuous.
14 seconds for the second attack time, the referee whistled the ball, Irving took the ball and rushed, without tactical running, and returned to singles mode.
Irving was also brave, facing the three kings for a siege layup, and the clang of irons exploded, and Covington took advantage of the chaos to grab a rebound.
George received the ball and turned around and dashed forward, three-for-two in the front court. Seeing that LeBron was the only one under the Cavaliers basket, he decisively hit the ground and passed the ball, while Antetokounmpo who followed up on the other side took the ball and started a three-step layup. A one-handed break, LeBron did the same.
51 to 43, the king's attack wave is still expanding.
The Cavaliers didn't call a timeout, LeBron dribbled the ball across half court, waited until all the players opened up the space, and started to charge George's single defense, but he rushed to the free throw line and was surrounded by three people, so he quickly raised his hand and passed to the short corner on the right to get an open space TT Thompson, but Thompson's reaction was the same as that of Love before him. He was completely unprepared. He missed the ball in a panic, the basketball flew out of the baseline, and the referee whistled and whistled for a violation.
"It seems that high-intensity confrontation will not only cause the opponent's technical movements to be deformed, but also lead to strategic mistakes..." Su Yang recalled that LeBron made two strong passes. In fact, there is quite a lot of attack time, and he can run tactics patiently. It is true. impatient.
There were cheers everywhere in the arena, and the king served and attacked.
Curry made a long pass to George on the left side of the frontcourt, quickly ran across the center line and then picked up the return pass. He raised his hand and rushed to shoot Owen. Throwing the board, the basketball is hollow into the net, and the whistle sounds at the same time.
The referee whistled TT Thompson for a thug foul.
The audience chanted MVP, Curry stood on the free throw line, made a steady hit and added a penalty, and the Cavaliers then requested a timeout.
In just 3 minutes, the Kings played a 15-0 attack wave and overtook the Cavaliers 54-43. Although they paid the price of two fouls by Antetokounmpo and one foul by Covington, they completely reversed the situation and firmly controlled the rhythm of the game. .
In the ESPN live broadcast, Van Gundy shouted excitedly: "The Cavaliers have obviously found a way to bite the situation, that is, a lot of running without the ball, but they suddenly choose to give up. I can only say that is their fate. They like singles. ..."
Jackson said with a smile: "Change requires a process. Special cases can only appear in special situations. In the fourth game, the Cavaliers knew that they were facing a sweeping elimination and were willing to make changes. However, the situation in the fifth game was different, and maybe there will be another... "
During the conversation, the game reached the end of the fourth quarter, and the situation was as Jackson expected. The Cavaliers, who were in danger of being eliminated, started to run without the ball again. There is hope of catching up.
Su Yang casually asked for a timeout, and arranged for the final stage of defense, thinking that as long as the situation does not collapse, he will win.
The whole team stood in a fan shape and shouted directly: "Warriors of the king, are you ready?"
