The King of the NBA - Chapter 389
“Don’t worry about the offense, calm down and look for opportunities patiently.” The second half had begun. Coach Cole stood on the sidelines and yelled at the court: “Don’t blindly shoot on the outside, we must play our rhythm.”
In the first half, the two sides scored 64:53, the Warriors trailed by 13 points.
Entering the second half, as Yao Ming expected, Cole emphasized the offense, hoping that the players could use the offense to make up for the defensive loopholes, so as to reverse the situation.
In fact, after arriving on the court, the Warriors did, but the effect was not good. The Timberwolves further strengthened their defense.
Especially for the inside, the Warriors couldn’t get in at all and could only shoot outside. At first, Curry and Thompson had their own gains, Green also scored a three-pointer, but then their shooting rate began to decline, consecutive misses The situation became unmanageable, and it was originally chased with only 6 points left, but after a while, the points difference returned to more than 10 points.
Coach Cole looked ugly and wanted to scold people.
“Snapped!”
With a crunch, Curry’s layup was fanned by Ning Yi.
Cole told them not to blindly shoot outside, but to play inside, so Curry strengthened the breakthrough, but did not expect to get a big hat from Ning Yi.
“Quick break!”
Ning Yi received the rebound, shouted and passed the ball to Rubio.
The Timberwolves launched a fast break, Rubio and Martin quickly reached the Warriors half, Rubio scored, Martin flying is a one-handed dunk.
“The difference is 14 points,” the Warriors assistants shouted.
“I know.” Cole nodded and called for a timeout.
This time, Cole rearranged the offensive tactics and shouted at the players, emphasizing that they should fight fast and fight back…
The Timberwolves are constantly changing, because they are already leading, and the defense has almost no weaknesses. Defensive response to the opponent’s offense is the correct strategy, there is no need to change anything.
However, before coming to the court, Adelman moved Ning Yi and said: “Ning, you have to strengthen the offense. The defense is important, but the offense is also important. Others who have done the defense may not have the ability to do the offense, strength. Limited, but you can.”
Ning Yi’s eyes lit up, and Adelman’s meaning coincided with him. He also thought so, responding to the Warriors defensively. This is no problem in itself, but long-term defense must be lost, and it cannot be kept like this. Section, there is a fourth section behind. To win, you should use the defense to resist the Warriors’ offense, and then expand the difference as much as possible. As long as the difference is large enough, it will not matter if you stay for a long time, because by that time, the Warriors have no hope of making a comeback. .
Of course, in order not to affect the overall defensive strategy and defensive intensity, Ning Yi or Love can only be allowed to take charge of the offense, and the points difference should be widened as much as possible.
Ning Yi is the wolf king in the forest.
“Coach, leave it to me.” Ning Yi smiled.
Adelman nodded, no one could be more reassuring than Ning Yi.
“beep……”
Whistle.
The two sides returned to the field, the Warriors calmed down, played less impetuously, and began to pass the ball patiently, waiting patiently for opportunities. The offense became more patient, and the Warriors’ status was recovered. Curry still broke inside, but did not blindly seek a layup opportunity, but divided the ball outside.
With a snap, Iguodala received a pass from Curry and made a 3-pointer.
“Well.” Cole nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he returned to a normal state, with their scoring ability, even if it was a disadvantage of more than a dozen points? You can catch up in a blink of an eye.
But then Cole couldn’t help frowning, because Ning Yi also made a three-pointer, which made Cole feel bad. If the Timberwolves have been stuck and dealt with, but if there are defenses and offenses, then it will be troublesome.
What’s more, Ning Yi’s scoring ability is not inferior to Curry and Thompson.
Behind, the Warriors still play very patiently, but they are not lacking in fierceness, but the Timberwolves have almost no weaknesses in their defense, which puts a lot of pressure on them and the success rate is not too high.
On the other hand, the Timberwolves don’t talk on the defensive end. The offensive end mainly depends on Ning Yi, and the Warriors have problems with their defense. Ning Yi has a strong scoring ability. When the Warriors score, Ning Yi can always return In terms of color, sometimes Love, Rubio and others can also put a cold arrow.
After a few minutes, and then go to see the score, the Warriors actually fell by as much as 17 points.
“Humph.” Cole snorted coldly, his face green.
In a few minutes, instead of narrowing the points, they widened.
After some substitutions, the third quarter soon came to an end. The Timberwolves entered the fourth quarter with a 16-point lead.
In the audience, McGrady glanced at the scoreboard and smiled: “The Warriors should lose today.”
Yao Ming smiled, undecided, the game was not over, and he couldn’t judge it, but he also thought that the Warriors had to lose because the score difference was too big.
Soon, the fourth quarter began.
The Warriors did not give up. The 16-point difference is the same gap for other teams, but it is not for them. With their scoring explosiveness, as long as they play a wave of offensive shock waves, the 16-point difference can be wiped out in a moment. level.
However, after the fourth quarter began, the Timberwolves adjusted their strategy again and began to play positional warfare with the Warriors. No matter how the Warriors take the rhythm, the Timberwolves are always in positional attack every time. The rhythm dropped, and the Warriors played in the half.
“Playing positional battles does not allow us to fight fast, slow down the pace, and does not give us a chance to fight back and grab points quickly. This makes it difficult for us to score continuously and consume time.” Cole’s face changed completely.
In the ensuing time, the Warriors tried to counterattack, but repeatedly failed.
The Timberwolves moved forward and backward in an orderly manner, slowing down the rhythm slowly. Although the point difference was narrowed, the game time was also consumed a lot.
In the end, even the Warriors fans knew that time was not enough~www.mtlnovel.com~ So it was so exhausted? “A fan lamented.
“Can’t say that.” Another fan shook his head and said: “Although the Timberwolves are consuming time, they are not blindly consuming time. They have defense and offense. It doesn’t look like the Warriors are playing hard, but they actually score. That’s a lot. Look at the data, Ning’s score has reached 37 points.”
The big screen shows the statistics of the players on both sides. Ning Yi has scored 37 points and Love has 27 points. The Warriors have 32 points for Curry and 28 points for Thompson.
Seeing this data, many people are stunned.
It seems that the Warriors attacked fiercely. Curry and Thompson also scored a lot of goals. Why did Ning Yi score the most?
“Ning Yi is indeed mature.” Yao Ming praised: “His shots are not that many, but the efficiency is very high, the score is stable. It seems that Curry has not scored many goals, but in fact it is just an illusion, Curry’s scoring is continuous, so he seems to have scored a lot of points, but it doesn’t seem to have so many. In fact, Ning Yi’s score is not as continuous, but the victory is stable, and there is always a score. In his sleep, he already had 37 points.”
