The Pope of Basketball Community - Chapter 884
In the second half, the Clippers’ tridents were replaced to rest, and Lavender, Danny Green, Covington, Draymond Green and Whiteside played, still suppressing the Thunder.
As long as two Greens are on the court, the Clippers’ defense has a backbone, and both the inside and outside can focus on the opponent’s strong offensive points. Offensive Draymond is also the core, pulling out the outside to be responsible for the pass.
Covington has made significant progress this season, catching three-pointers, flanking defense, and single defense are all excellent. The joint defense system can not only guard the breakthrough, but also retract the inside to interfere with the shot and protect the rebound.
Whiteside is the last barrier for the Clippers. He moves fast, has amazing bounces and wingspans, and the defender may throw a hat when he throws slowly in front of him.
The defense of this lineup is stronger than the starter. The only defensive ability is Lavin, and it is not a black hole in joint defense.
Westbrook couldn’t find the fast break rhythm at all. He was good at emergency stop shots and layups. It was difficult to get rid of the defense. No one outside the three-point line caught him. The shooting percentage was too low.
At the end of the third quarter, the Clippers lead by 37 points, completely into the garbage time.
Wei Shao continued to play in the last quarter for a triple-double or to lead the team to complete the shocking reversal. He continued to send mistakes and an assist. After 3 minutes, the score difference increased to 45 points. Donovan replaced it. Too.
Yang Rui sent a full-margin lineup, Brogdon, Booker, Bamotte, David West, David Lee.
Faced with this “marginal” lineup, the Thunder bench led by Kanter decisively started the abuse mode, and the points continue to widen.
Not only can the Thunder play, but there are not many teams in the league that can beat the Clippers as a “marginal”. Although the defense is weak, these five players can be compared to the start of more teams.
Brogdon, who looks the weakest, can shoot suddenly and shoot accurately at long and medium distances. His previous life should have been the best rookie of the season.
Booker singled Morrow or Singler easily.
David Lee can not only help his teammates as a cover, but also can score points by himself.
Bamott defended seriously even during garbage time, showing his specialty, was an excellent wing defender, and also made a free 3-pointer.
West was able to pull the ball into the middle of the ball, and he could also play with his foot in the low post. He was short on the defensive end and had a poor frame, but he had extensive experience in pick-and-roll prevention.
In the final 138 to 85, the Clippers beat the Thunder by 53 points at home.
Booker went viral in the last quarter, 8 of 11 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and 21 points in a single quarter. He played only 22 minutes, scoring 28 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.
Adetokounmpo scored the most, playing 26 minutes, scoring 30 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
Curry played 27 minutes, got 17 points and 5 assists, hit three three-pointers, quite satisfactory.
The others scored more evenly, with 7 people in the team scoring double figures.
Only three of the Thunder scored in double figures. Kanter had 18 points and 7 rebounds. Most of them were obtained in garbage time. Oladipo scored 11 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist.
Westbrook played 34 minutes, 6 of 23 shots, 26.1% shooting, 3 of 11 3-pointers, 27.3% shooting, 7 of 8 free throws, 22 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 9 turnovers.
Wei Shao’s data makes people wonder what words to use. He grabbed 11 backcourt rebounds. No matter how accurate the opponent’s three-pointer is from the outside, he was not active in meeting the defender. He made his teammates change defense and the Clippers As soon as he shot, he turned to grab a rebound.
Because Thunder’s big guys all went out to prevent a three-pointer, and the inside was empty, so the “girlfriends” found the truth, saying that Wei Shao’s rebounding is a real fight, not by brush and teammates. Hate Adams defender is doing too bad, resulting in a little rebound in the backcourt, otherwise Wei Shao can compete for the rebound.
Adams also got magical data, with 5 offensive rebounds in the whole game. The total number of rebounds is not double, and he has 8 points and 8 rebounds…
In a fiasco, Wei Shao’s adjustment method was to take on more offensive responsibilities and let his teammates just focus on defense.
The Clippers didn’t adjust in the second game. They played exactly the same way as they did on the field. They defended the restricted area with joint defense and had few external defenses.
Robertson and Oladipo hit the iron again and again in the first quarter. Victoria Shao was angry and started a crazy shot mode. Various emergency stop jumpers, dry jumpers, faced with a double-team, Qian Kun Da Nuo moved barely.
The Clippers defender didn’t feel well, the perimeter was misaligned, and the strong attack on the restricted area in the second half was still the last one. Victoria Shaw shot 1 of 9 in the last quarter to help the Clippers beat the Thunder 120-105.
Curry scored 31 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. His shooting percentage was only 40%. Adetokounmpo and Whiteside scored 20+, and the team scored double figures.
Victoria played 41 minutes, 17 of 43 shots, 2 of 11 3-pointers, 15 of 18 free throws, 51 points, 10 rebounds, 13 assists, 4 steals and 1 block.
After the game, the online evaluation is two extremes.
Someone said: “Thunder is not afraid of falling behind, he is afraid of leading, as soon as he leads Wei Wei, he starts to wave, and a wave of waves takes Thunder away.”
Some people also said: “Thunder lost, Victoria Shao did not lose, the epic data of 51+10+13, what else do you want him to do? This is the first 50+ triple-double in the history of NBA playoffs. Teammates are too trash.”
When the girlfriends brag about Victoria’s dominance, the Thunder teammates can’t stand it anymore. If Victor still plays like this, Adams, Oladipo, and Tajibson will be ready to die with him.
Back at home, Wei Shao converged a lot and started running tactics with his teammates. He no longer rushed into a single attack and faced a strong shot. However, he had to rebound in the backcourt.
Victor Shaw made 11 of 24 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 10 of 14 free throws, and finally not too iron, scored 32 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals and 5 turnovers, 12 are all backcourt rebounds.
This time Wei Shao led the team’s offensive, and the five scored in double figures, but in order to grab rebounds, he frequently sent big men to the outside and the Clippers got a better offensive opportunity~www.mtlnovel.com~Curry broke out , 16 of 22 shots, 7 of 12 3-pointers, 7 of 7 free throws, scored 46 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.
The brother of the letter has been as stable as ever, 9 of 15 shots, 1 of 2 3-pointers, 6 of 8 free throws, 25 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.
The Clippers also scored in double figures with five people, and the other players played casually, and the Thunder could not withstand. The Clippers won another game 123 to 115, with a total score of 3 to 0.
The Thunder standing on the edge of the cliff had no way to retreat. The fourth game could only be desperate. However, in the first quarter, it only played for 4 minutes. Adams made two offenses and rested. Thunder’s outside line arranged for Adams to be misplaced by Yang Rui, deliberately fouled and let him guard the water dispenser.
Without the inside gate, the Thunder was quickly defeated, Jokic broke two consecutive three-pointers, and there was a good play in the face of Kanter’s breakthrough dunk.
In the second quarter, Whiteside and Lavin took over the game again, picking up and tearing off and breaking the Thunder line again and again. Lavin played in the Clippers is not fancy, the main practice is to stop the jumper after a pick-and-roll step, relying on the ball-free cover to catch the jumper, attracted the inside, split the ball to find Whiteside, West two inside.
Lavin and Curry had similar tasks. Without Curry, it was enough to beat the Thunder bench.
In the second half, in order to chase points, Wei Shao began to meet the pull-up jumper.
Not to mention the players, anyone who likes to play 2K games knows that this kind of playing is not efficient. Victoria Shaw made 12 of 34 shots, 5 of 18 3-pointers, 12 of 17 free throws, scored 47 points, 11 rebounds, 9 assists, and 7 turnovers.
The Thunder made 10 of 38 3-pointers and the Clippers made 16 of 37 shots. In this regard alone, the Thunder lost many points.
135 to 89, the Clippers swept the Thunder and easily advanced to the second round.
