Chapter 835 James Chapter 2

Chapter 835 James Second

The Eastern Conference finals were just as exciting.

Everyone thought that the strength of the Celtics would develop by leaps and bounds as the players matured, but everyone was wrong.

Instead, the Celtics have fallen into crisis this season and their strength has declined.

Before entering the Eastern Conference Finals, the Celtics were struggling. In this round of the series, although the Celtics played well in the first game, they were crushed in the second game.

Embiid of the 76ers showed dominant strength in the interior.

Al Horford performed well, but he lacked a competitive spirit. In many cases, it is impossible to pass the ball to his teammates if he has the opportunity not to shoot himself.

On the defensive end, Horford has been performing very well, but compared to Embiid, Horford's performance is much worse.

Embiid's low-post offense, high-post support, and defense all performed very well.

And Ben Simmons also played the best performance in the playoffs.

The data of 31 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists made Ben Simmons shout, which is exactly the same as James' performance in the second season.

There is no doubt that if Ben Simmons continues to grow, he will definitely be another James.

The 76ers have outstanding talents and have begun to show their dominance.

The progress of the Celtics came to an abrupt end. In this round of the series, it is hard to say who will win or lose, but even if the Celtics win, it will be difficult to enter the finals in the next few years. In the East, both the 76ers and the Bucks are rising rapidly.

In the West, the third game is finally going back to the home court of the Golden State Warriors,

Away games, there will be many differences.

At least the atmosphere will make people feel uncomfortable. Fortunately, the atmosphere of the Golden State Warriors' home court is not strong, and in Golden State, there are many Chinese, which can be regarded as half of Qin Yang's home court.

When arriving at the home court of the Warriors, Qin Yang was interviewed by the media:

"I like this place very much. I can feel the breath of home here. Every time I come to Golden State to play, I feel like I am at home. I hope the fans can support me."

Many people in the Warriors were embarrassed by what they said.

The home atmosphere of the Warriors has always been bad. It has attracted many fans only after the improvement of the record in the past few years.

Before the game, the Mavericks continued to practice.

In this game, the strategy of the Mavericks remains unchanged. The defensive end exerts pressure, even if the six fouls leave the field, they will not hesitate.

This is the best decision.

beep.

The whistle sounded again, and this time Gobert jumped the ball and turned the basketball over. After Qin Yang got the ball, he avoided Curry's steal, and did not rush to break fast, and slowly dribbled the ball across the half.

The Warriors changed their tactics, replacing Bogut with Iguodala in the starting lineup.

Five dead.

The Warriors stepped up the tackle and tight end.

On the first ball, Qin Yang used the screen to shoot and hit the basketball, but Nurkic encountered a foul by Drummond Green before he got the rebound.

Nurkic made 2 of 1 free throws.

The Warriors attacked and started running straight away.

The Mavericks have long been prepared for the Warriors' offense, so they are very careful when defending, and follow the Warriors to the half-court position.

But after halftime, Curry made a direct three-pointer.

This position is a bit far away, almost X** voted.

The basketball bounced out of the basket, and Durant rushed to the basket and made a direct tip-up to score.

The Mavericks attacked, Qin Yang did not rush to attack, and signaled the team to play slowly, Paul George did not attack rashly after receiving the pass, and passed the ball to Qin Yang.

Qin Yang passed it to Mitchell.

After Mitchell got the ball, he singled Curry and directly squeezed Curry for a layup.

There is a problem with this offensive option,

But Qin Yang didn't say anything. Targeting Curry on the offensive end, consuming his physical strength and energy, is also a good choice.

The Warriors, as simple as ever, ran away.

Find an opportunity, shoot from the outside, or score an empty cut layup.

This is the Warriors' offensive routine.

The lineup of the five death squads showed their power at this time.

Gobert's defensive strength is very strong and his speed is very fast, but at this time, if he dares to come out to defend, then if the Warriors make an empty cut, it will be easy for the basket to be unguarded.

But when Gobert goes to the basket, there will be one less person on the outside.

Durant and Iguodala used this loophole to make 4 of 2 outside three-pointers. This shooting rate is not high, but it is not low.

The Mavericks started without an advantage.

Coach Carlisle called a timeout.

Nurkic was replaced by James Ennis.James Ennis has a good perimeter defense and is an excellent 3D player.

"The opposing lineup has a lot of deficiencies in defense. Bruce, strengthen singles and Gobert pays attention to rebounding inside."

The Warriors' Death Five is strong, but not invincible.

The Mavericks attack.

Klay Thompson defended Qin Yang, but Qin Yang didn't look for cover and went straight to singles.

Thompson's lateral movement speed was a bit slow, Qin Yang fought back from his crotch, and directly forced a breakthrough after the crossover. As a defender, Thompson slowed down a bit, and Qin Yang made a successful layup. Klay Thompson chased behind him, but Qin Yang got stuck and scored an easy layup.

The rest of the Mavericks can't double-team, because once double-teamed, other positions are vacant.

At that time, the Mavericks can shoot dead people.

The Warriors attacked, and this time when the outside line passed and cut again, the Mavericks changed defenses infinitely from the outside line, and the Warriors didn't find a chance.

In the end, Iguodala made a three-pointer.

Drummond Green's shooting is too poor, and this shortcoming is also very poorly targeted. No matter who changes defense, Green can prevent breakthroughs or prevent shots.

The outside shot rate is only [-]% this season. The more Green shoots outside, the easier it will be for the Mavericks to win.

Iguodala's three-pointers are fairly reliable, but the weird thing is that as he gets older, Iguodala's three-pointers are getting softer and softer, and his shooting percentage is getting lower and lower.

Bang!

Iguodala hit the iron.

Qin Yang stepped forward and was strong enough to rebound.

After getting the ball, Qin Yang was not in a hurry. After holding the ball for half the court, Paul George covered. After the screen, Qin Yang passed the ball again and ran without the ball.

Running without the ball, Qin Yang didn't rush to catch the ball and shoot, but attracted the defense.

The basketball did not go through Qin Yang, and finally James Ennis passed the ball to Mitchell. Mitchell ran to the open space, caught the ball and made a layup.

Qin Yang's help to the team was far greater than expected.

If superstars can play off the ball, they will help the team to a higher level. If they can integrate themselves into the team, the team will be even stronger.

This is an unsolvable problem.

Not defending Qin Yang, let Qin Yang catch the ball and shoot, it must be a bad thing.

But if he defends alone, Qin Yang will naturally be in an advantageous position to catch the ball, and the defender will be very sad.With a feint, Qin Yang shoots faster, that is, shoots, and shoots slower, and he can collect the ball and break through.So the threat off the ball is not the same as the threat with the ball.

The Mavericks scored again, and the Warriors panicked.
