Chapter 600 Critical moment, free throw problem

Chapter 600 Critical moment, free throw problem

The league has many definitions of a superstar.

But everyone agrees that only superstars who can stand up at critical moments can be recognized.

As long as the players in the NBA are playing well, many of them score 40+ points, even 50+ points.

There's Corey Brewer this season, and Jennings in previous seasons.

Therefore, being able to stand up at critical moments is the role of superstars.

The Mavericks made consecutive mistakes, and the team's point difference was only 2 points.

This is the moment of truth.

A basketball game is very similar to a battle.

Husband and courage also!

When the momentum is gone, the game will quickly fall to one side.

After being pulled close to the score in a row, many Mavericks felt a little resigned from the bottom of their hearts, and there was a lot of pressure in their hearts.

If the ball is given to someone else, the probability of making a mistake will greatly increase.

What if I don't score, the team will fall behind, and the responsibility for the failure will be on my head.

I want to play this ball steadily, without making mistakes, and must make big goals.

……

All kinds of chaotic thoughts come together, and scoring will become more difficult than usual.

At the critical moment, Fang showed his true qualities as a hero.

The Mavericks attacked, Qin Yang took the ball and faced Kawhi Leonard directly.

Leonard's defense is very good, but he dare not play against Kawhi. That is impossible. Qin Yang is playing the best defensive player.

Only in this way can the situation be stabilized.

After dribbling the ball halfway, Qin Yang directly signaled to pull away.

singles!

In the commentary seat, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley began to murmur like cannonballs:

"Perhaps the most exciting moment of the game happened, and then Bruce singled Leonard."

"Leonard has the most outstanding perimeter defensive talent among perimeter players in the league. Bruce rarely played directly before."

"Dribble, crossover!"

"breakthrough!"

……

Qin Yang lowered his body, pulled the ball directly after the crossover, and after breaking through with an extremely quick feint, he retreated after pulling the ball and pretended to make a shot. Kawhi reacted quickly both times and quickly followed.

Qin Yang paid homage to Buddha.

Kawhi keeps up again.

Qin Yang pulled the ball again and took a step back to make a shot.

Kawhi followed suit again.

Unfortunately, this time it was a fake move.

Blessing Buddha, after half a step, Qin Yang took a step back to the right, shot a three-pointer, and Kawaii jumped up and jumped up.

Qin Yang stretched out his hand, but didn't jump up.

After Kawaii's arm arrived, Qin Yang jumped straight up. Kawaii hit first, and then Qin Yang threw the ball out.

beep!

The whistle sounded.

What is ok is that the basketball bumped and slid out.

Otherwise, this is a fantastic 3+1.

With free throws, Qin Yang made 3 of 3 without any suspense.

The Mavericks' decline stopped immediately.

Coach Popovich was stroking his beard on the sidelines, expressionless. Leonard no longer had any problems with this defense.

No one may be able to defend.

So, the ball is fine.But because of this, Popovich will be a little helpless.Any coach wants his team to have such a big killer.Usually as stable as a dog like Duncan, take it out at critical moments, and hit wherever you point.

Among active players, only Durant and Qin Yang have this ability.

However, Durant is not comprehensive enough, and he is much worse than Qin Yang in terms of passing and organizing offense.

The Spurs attacked, and after Tony Parker made several pass cuts, he singled out Casspi. Casspi didn't defend well, but he used his body and strength to get stuck in the position.

Tony Parker made an emergency stop jumper and hit the iron.

Al Jefferson gets the rebound.

Qin Yang held the ball again, and Al Jefferson made a screen. This time Qin Yang forced a shot under the basket. When there was no space, he was double-teamed by two people. He stretched out his arm and hit a hook, hitting a 2+1.

Splitter was very depressed, and the headshot was unbelievable.

Popovich called a timeout.

Two consecutive fairy balls, the Spurs played without temper.

After the timeout, the Spurs' defense against Qin Yang became tighter and stronger. This is an effective tactic for the Spurs.

it's fine.

Qin Yang has already played a role. At this time, his teammates can stand up.

Casspi finally showed his shooting ability. He made 3 of 2 from the three-point line and scored 6 points in a single quarter. The Spurs did not dare to shrink at all.

Insider Al Jefferson began to show his proficient singles skills, Splitter looked tragic and didn't want to play.

Both the outside line and the inside line were opened, and the point difference expanded rapidly after it was almost equalized.

For the first time in the game, the score difference was 12 points.

The Spurs called a timeout, and the GDP combination played again.Also playing is Leonard.

The two sides began to fight fiercely.

Qin Yang also started to let go of the fight.

At the end of the third quarter, Qin Yang made another effort. When the GDP team hit one after another, he stood up. One single, one catch and one assist, led the team to stabilize the point difference. After three quarters, the Mavericks led by 14 points.

That's not a huge difference.

But it makes people a little desperate.

During the break, Qin Yang drank his drink and panted heavily. In the third quarter, Qin Yang scored consecutive singles, which consumed a lot of energy.

The consumption of 1 minute is comparable to normal playing for 6 or [-] minutes.

"Next, you must play steadily, don't panic, Corey Brewer, you have to rush up, not for a fast break, but to put pressure on them, and you can't let them play slowly, otherwise the rhythm will be under their control."

"Al, I will give you three to five minutes in the fourth quarter. During this time, if you have a chance, don't be stingy with your physical strength. If necessary, you must foul at the basket and don't give them easy opportunities to score."

"Dirk, at the critical moment of the fourth quarter, the team needs you to share the offensive pressure. As long as the score is stable, it will not be a problem."

……

Coach Carlisle made arrangements again.

At this point in the game, most of the arrangements are useless, because tactics and so on have been played more than once or twice.

What needs attention is often a small change.

Game start.

The Spurs attack.

Tony Parker attacked with the ball after halftime and failed to find a chance. Qin Yang would not give Tony Parker an easy chance to score.

In the end, after two passes of the basketball, Duncan was found again.

After Duncan got the ball, he played low singles again.

Al Jefferson's defense is not good, his jumping is not strong, his height is disadvantaged, Duncan's low hook, Al Jefferson can't defend at all.

At the critical moment, Al Jefferson made a decisive foul.

Duncan made a free throw.

2 free throws.

Perhaps many people think that Duncan is the greatest power forward in NBA history.Yes, this thinking is correct.

But in fact, Duncan also has shortcomings.

For example, Duncan's free throws have been hovering around 70.3%.Duncan is shooting [-] percent from the line this season.

Yes, much lower than expected.

Shaq O'Neal, as one of the most dominant insiders in NBA history, made less than [-]% of his free throws and was scolded as a fool.

Duncan's free throw percentage just reached [-]%.

Generally speaking, if the free throw percentage reaches [-]%, it is qualified and will not become the target of the shark-killing tactics.

However, at critical moments, this free throw percentage is very unreliable.

This is another shortcoming of Duncan besides his lack of explosive power.
