Chapter 489 Mental Suppression
"In the next game, the Thunder will panic and play more aggressively. We will do the opposite. In the first three quarters, we will play more tactics, pass more balls, and make shots when we find opportunities, which will make them tired of coping."
"Wait until the last quarter, and then strengthen the confrontation."
Qin Yang directly stated his own method.
Coach Van Gundy also expressed support.
This is a simple and obvious tactic, but far more effective.
The Thunder will definitely have to fight for a game, run more and increase confrontation, which will become the focus of the next game.
At this time, go to fight the Thunder?
That's stupid.
Qin Yang would not be so stupid.
One bang, another decline, three exhaustions, as long as the Kings make the opponent tired of coping, and wait until the last quarter to exert their strength, it is easy to cause a fatal blow to the opponent.
On May 5, the fourth game began.
This time, the starting lineup of the Kings changed, and Rudy Gay became Casspi.Ray Allen became Klay Thompson.
This lineup change made the Thunder a little confused.
Charles Barkley:
"At such a critical moment in the fourth game, Coach Van Gundy actually chose to change his lineup, and replaced him with Casspi, who rarely played in this round of the series. It is really surprising. Are they going to play against each other in this game?"
Charles Barkley didn't understand.
Kenny Smith said: "Confrontation is not impossible. With Bruce Qin, the Kings' offense will always be the best."
The two sides jumped the ball, and Ibaka jumped up like crazy. After Westbrook got the ball, he rushed out directly.
Cousins quickly returned to the defense, but was a step slower.
Westbrook is too fierce, super fast, super explosive, directly hitting the basket, almost an open layup.
When the first goal was scored, Westbrook patted his chest, very insolent.
This is Westbrook, with a very distinctive personality.
The Kings attack.
Qin Yang played the first ball very steadily. After Darko covered, Qin Yang slowly dribbled the ball, attracting the defense to pass the ball to Casspi.
Casspi broke through and gave the ball to Klay Thompson again.
Klay Thompson hesitated for a moment, the defense was in place, and he passed it to Qin Yang again. After Qin Yang got the ball, he made a gesture to pass the ball, and then shot directly.
Whoosh!
A three-pointer was scored.
Fake Fax Shoot.
Sefolosha was a step too slow and didn't interfere at all.
This season, Sefolosha is one of the best defensive players on the defender, and many defenders are miserable by his defense.
Kobe once said that he is one of the best active defensive players on guard.
But in this round of the series, Sefolosha was beaten by Qin Yang and doubted his life.
Others play mainly on breakthroughs or shooting, but Qin Yang is good at both, and he is very abnormal.
A breakthrough is difficult to prevent, and the rhythm changes quickly.The key is that the shooting is abnormally accurate, and people who throw three-pointers panic.
That's not counting, the pass is still so good.
Sefolosha said he was sad.
The Thunder attacked, Westbrook ignored Durant's request, directly took the ball and hit the basket, made a difficult layup under the basket, the basketball hit the net, and he fell to the ground.
It's a pity that the ball didn't call a foul.
Cousins was in a good position and didn't make a hard move. It's normal not to call a foul.
You can't call a foul just because Westbrook fell to the ground.
After the goal, Westbrook hit his chest and roared.
This is the real Westbrook.
Durant was expressionless and could only return to defense.
The game continues.
The Kings play very steadily. They are not in a hurry for every shot. They have to wear it several times. The opponent's defense is very tight, so pass the ball steadily and find an opportunity before making a shot.
The Thunder's Westbrook is very hard, and the defensive end keeps switching defenses to help defend, but the Kings are very stable.
Steady as a dog!
That was the tone for the first three games of this game, and the Kings got off to a good start.
Qin Yang reduced his offensive and integrated himself into the group. In the first quarter, he scored 5 of 3 and scored 6 points and 3 assists.
The Thunder led by only one point in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, the Kings were still very stable, but at the end of the second quarter, the Kings began to make mistakes.
Ray Allen and Klay Thompson missed one after another, and the Thunder took the opportunity to overtake the game.
At halftime, the Kings trailed by 7 points.
It's not a huge point difference, but the Thunder are happy.
During the break, Qin Yang spoke in the locker room:
"We played well in the first half, and we all kept our strength. The Thunder team's momentum has slowly gone down. Continue to maintain it in the third quarter, let the opponent run more, wait until the fourth quarter is exerting strength, and reverse the score in one fell swoop."
Qin Yang's words stabilized the morale of the army.
Klay Thompson's shots in the second quarter were a little hasty.
It seems to have got a good chance, but the shot is not stable, so big is a bit bad.
But the problem is not big.
Coach Van Gundy continued to do tactics.
The third quarter begins.
With Qin Yang on the field and with Qin Yang on the court, there was an obvious difference in the play of the two teams, and the Kings became obviously more stable.
When the Thunder defended, they had more scruples. They always wanted to pay attention to Qin Yang, and the others got a chance.
In this quarter, Qin Yang is still a role player.
Passing, screening, rebounding all played well.
The data of 3 points, 3 assists and 3 rebounds helped the team stabilize the point difference.
Everything is as expected.
But in the fourth quarter, the Kings made an effort.
In the first three quarters, the Kings obviously lacked confrontation. The team played from the outside and avoided fighting the opponent.
They are all running and playing tactics, looking for opportunities to shoot.
But in the last quarter, Rudy Gay played.
As soon as Rudy Gay, who had been holding back for the whole game, came out, he increased the confrontation of the Kings, and Qin Yang even defended Westbrook.
Westbrook's outside shooting is not reassuring, so Qin Yang only needs to defend and break through.
Westbrook is not as difficult to defend as imagined.
On the first ball, Cousins gave him a big cap at the basket.
Qin Yang's interference was in place, and Westbrook had limited space to make shots, which gave Cousins a chance.
When Qin Yang got the ball, he immediately made a long pass.
Rudy Gay rushed directly and quickly, entered the basket and received a long pass from Qin Yang for a layup, and no one else could keep up.
The Thunder attacked, and Durant finally made a hit from the outside.
But the ball hit a little speechless, it belongs to the fairy ball.
The Kings attacked, Qin Yang broke through, entered the basket and threw the ball high, Cousins jumped up for a dunk, and fouled Kendrick Perkins.
It's a pity that the free throw was missed.
The Thunder attacked and Westbrook made a layup.
Darko got the rebound, and the Thunder quickly returned to defense. Qin Yang was not in a hurry this time, and played half-court offense slowly.
After Ray Allen screened, Qin Yang broke through and passed to Darko. Darko held high and hit high. Without a chance, he passed the ball to Ray Allen who was running.
Ray Allen got an open chance at the critical moment.
Westbrook, who was defending him, was assisting Qin Yang, which was a huge mistake.
Ray Allen made an easy layup from close range.
The difference was quickly reversed.
The Kings took the lead.
