Chapter 830 Grab 7, Grab 7

Chapter 830 Tie-break, tie-break

In the second round of the Eastern Conference, the Raptors played against the 76ers.

This is a battle of dragons and tigers.

After Leonard joined the Raptors this season, their strength has not diminished but has increased. Kaka's ability to lead the team at critical moments is still worthy of a rookie.

What's more, under Popovich's training, Kaka's defense is super strong.

The Raptors' perimeter weakness was made up for. Xiaoka made shots at critical moments and usually gave up the ball to his teammates. The Raptors performed very well.

The 76ers are talented.

Ben Simmons' template has risen to a combination of James and Qin Yang. This template should not be too scary. The combination of the first and second players in the active league is invincible.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, but looking at the data in the first season alone, Ben Simmons is slightly better than James.

Besides, it's only the first season, and Ben Simmons has already started hitting open three-pointers, which is amazing.

Among the tall point guards, besides Qin Yang, was Ben Simmons.

Needless to say Joel Embiid, Peter the Great's strength has been recognized, otherwise he would not be selected as an All-Star substitute.

In the second round of the Eastern and Western Conference, except for the fact that the Mavericks won the Partridges, the other teams played fiercely.

For a while, the news about the Mavericks was much lower-key.

Qin Yang didn't care, instead he paid attention to the status of other teams.

The Partridge team is relatively weak, and the Mavericks won without suspense, but the next opponent, whether it is the Rockets or the Warriors, is very difficult to beat.

Other players don't need to care, but Qin Yang must pay attention.

In Game [-], the Mavericks went on to win, plain and simple.

Except for Anthony Davis, the Partridge team can't stand up. Tony Parker is really old. Now the GDP trio is only left. Ginobili retired this season, Duncan retired last season, Qin Yang also attended the retirement ceremony, but Tony Parker's retirement may not be as high as the two.

Rondo was signed with a basic salary, which is actually no problem.

Rondo's passing ability is very strong, but...a point guard who won't be lazy, what's the use of strong passing ability, anyway, he can't be the core, relatively speaking, he is not as good as a guard who is simple in passing and good at shooting three-pointers. Steve Blake's mid-level contract extension this season is proof.

The partridge team was already disheartened after losing.

Anthony Davis felt even more frustrated after not finishing a game.

When shaking hands with Qin Yang after the game, they were absent-minded.

Qin Yang didn't try to persuade him either.

Four playoff games, the Mavericks swept again, the first to advance to the next round.

In the second round of the Western Conference, the game between the Warriors and the Rockets was earth-shattering. Every game was a fierce battle, and it was very intense.

The four-star Warriors played against the four-star Rockets.

The tip of the needle is facing the wheat awning, and the sky is falling apart.

The Warriors win in passing and cutting, while the Rockets win in the players' personal ability and overall strength.In the Warriors, Curry and Durant have excellent ability to hold the ball, but everyone else has flaws. Klay Thompson can only play without the ball. With the ball, it is a big deal, and the efficiency value is very low. Drummond Green's shooting is too bad, similar to Rondo, and the outside line can be emptied.

Therefore, when the Rockets defended, they were very targeted.

As long as the defensive pressure is maintained, the Warriors will inevitably make mistakes.

The Rockets also have big problems. The Rockets have a problem with the distribution of the ball. Carmelo Anthony has made a compromise. Although he is starting, he will be replaced soon. Most of the time, he will lead the team to grab points from the bench.

But the two defenders who are good at attacking with the ball still can't play.

Both James Harden and Chris Paul are good at attacking with the ball. If they don't hold the ball, their threat will be greatly reduced.

In this way, the outside combination of James Harden and Chris Paul is much worse than that of the Splash Brothers. Although in terms of individual ability alone, James Harden and Chris Paul are slightly stronger than the Splash Brothers.

This is the problem of the team's tactical coordination.

The two teams first drew 2-2, and then fought two more fiercely, and played a tiebreaker.

Since Adam Silva became the president of the league, the most peculiar scene in history has appeared. Every year in the playoffs, there will be a tiebreaker.

In the past two years, there have been two games each time.

The probability of this happening is seven or eight times that of previous years.

In the tiebreaker, the Warriors played steadily. Although no one broke out, they finally suppressed the Rockets steadily.

At the critical moment, the Rockets were unstable.

Chris Paul was 14 of 5, and his shooting percentage was a bit miserable.

In the end, after the second round of the East and West, the teams that advanced to the finals also came out.

In the west, the Mavericks swept the Partridges, the Warriors won the tiebreaker, and the Rockets were disliked.

Pity me, Paul, every year is a strong team, but every year has not entered the playoffs. If the Warriors do not disband, they may not be able to enter the Western Conference Finals until they retire in the future.

In the NBA, there are few superstars who are more miserable than Chris Paul.

In the Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics finally joined forces with the 76ers.

The two played a strong six and a tiebreaker. They played very fiercely, but in the end, the Celtics and 76ers with better lineups entered the Eastern Conference finals.

Dallas Mavericks tactical practice room,

Coach Carlisle led the coaching staff to explain targeted tactics to the players.

"The Warriors are the strongest offensive team in the league. Their backcourt combination is very strong. They are best at playing screens and pick-and-rolls. After using shots to attract the defense, they cut layups and catch the ball. So it is very difficult to defend them. This time, everyone has a heavy defensive task."

"The outside line must do a good job of changing defenses. Unless the height difference is too large, no matter who encounters a screen, they must change defenses in time."

The Mavericks' defensive tactics are simple, I am for everyone, and everyone is for me.

After everyone encounters the opponent's pick-and-roll screen, they must help defend.

It can be said that the tactics of the Mavericks have no defensive weaknesses. Even Qin Yang, sometimes unlucky, has to help and change defenses again and again, and he is exhausted.

In the years when Paul George didn't come, Qin Yang had the strongest perimeter defense. Qin Yang contributed a lot of experience on the defensive end every game.

In comparison, the current difficulty of defense is nothing to Qin Yang.

The coaching staff intercepted some of the Warriors' tactical coordination this season, especially the coordination of breakthroughs and catch-and-shoot after the pick-and-roll.Specifically explain to players what to do in such a money situation.

Playing against the Warriors, let alone the offense, the defensive end has to be stable, and the Warriors cannot be given a chance to play.

If the Splash Brothers' touch is overwhelming, then the game will not be able to be played.
