Build a Dream Dynasty

The Nets attacked, and the team's tactics were not played out. In desperation, Curry did not find a cover, and directly singled out Dragic. The flank changed direction and swayed half of his body. He stopped and made a jumper to equalize the score.

Don't look at the Nets talking about three-pointers, pass cuts, and systems. In the final analysis, they are based on Curry's singles ability. To put it bluntly, if you replace Curry with any point guard in the league, the Nets' offensive system will have to be overthrown and rebuilt. Curry is to the Nets, even greater than Messi to Barcelona.

The Clippers attacked, Durant received the ball from the wing, and after attracting the defense, he passed the ball to Embiid who wanted the ball in the low post. At the free throw line, Harris made a light jumper.

The emperor's singles ability, especially the back-up play, has not yet reached the top level at this time. His more role is to support a defensive system on the defensive end, and at the same time, his offensive support ability is also very strong. Especially after Durant's arrival, this point was fully utilized.

The Nets' offense fell into a stagnant state again. The problem of multiple players on the team being injured is magnified when facing strong teams. Right now, with Leonard being suppressed by Durant, the only reliable offensive firepower on the Nets is Curry. The Clippers' defensive focus is very clear, which is to pinch Curry. Whether other people can stand up and share at this time is a question. Obviously, the two points of O'Neal and Green on the field are slightly disappointing. They couldn't make good use of the space created by Curry to hit the Clippers.

At the other end, the Clippers are flourishing. With Durant consciously saving energy and not playing singles frequently, Harris, Embiid, and Fernandez all contributed to scoring, helping the Clippers take the lead.

On Joe Harris playing the fifth? Well, in this high-end game, a player with obvious defensive flaws like Joe Harris is a gamble. For the Nets, the situation has not deteriorated to that extent. Stevens' adjustment is to tie in Carter, who has a stronger offensive ability, and replace O'Neal, who is younger and more active on the defensive end.

After Carter returned to the Nets, his performance in the past two seasons has not been very brilliant. One problem is that he and Curry are not very good. His running willingness and awareness are not suitable for Curry, but the team needs to Someone on the offensive end can provide something other than the system, and Leonard's hard-hitting effect on Durant is not very good. We can only hope that Carter will bring about some changes.

The Nets attacked in a positional battle. Curry took the ball to the frontcourt to find a pick-and-roll, attracted the defense and passed it to Carter.

Carter singled out Dragic on the right side, and his size advantage is obvious. First, he explored the frame, and then leaned in against the opponent. Dragic is a relatively tough defender, but it is really difficult to compare with Carter in terms of tonnage. , Harris' supplementary defense gave Carter a chance to pass the ball, Chasing Dream caught the ball and directly attacked the frame. Although the ball failed to score, it caused a foul by the Clippers, and it was Embiid's second foul.

The game lasted 6 minutes, and it was time for Embiid to rest. But leaving the field with two fouls must have an impact on the Clippers' next personnel scheduling. The Clippers' bench lineup is worse than the starting lineup.

Without Embiid protecting the frame in the penalty area, the pressure on the Nets on the offensive end has been reduced a lot. Whether it's Nurkic or Leonard, the main force of the Nets' attacking frame is relieved. The team's offense immediately became more lively. As for the Clippers, what makes Hawes stronger than Embiid may be that his three-pointer is better, which can help his teammates open up some offensive space. In addition, it is almost all-round weakening .

In the half quarter when Embiid was on the court, he helped the team establish a 6-point lead. In the three minutes after he was off the court, although Durant was still very efficient on 3 of 5 shots on the offensive end, 6 The 1-point lead has been wiped out by the Nets.

Rivers has always had mixed reviews when it comes to hiring people. Favoring veterans or veterans who he has coached before is not friendly to newcomers other than Rivers Jr. Sometimes there is really no one available, and he suddenly discovers some low-level players for you, and you will find that they play well. But now that the manpower is sufficient, Rivers' rigid employment has been exposed again, especially his preference for Rivers Jr., which directly made Rivers Jr. nicknamed "Prince" among Clippers fans. And the current little Rivers, replacing Crawford, has become the first ball-handler of the Clippers' bench lineup. He has good physical fitness and is also very active on the defensive end, but the offensive end is indeed brainless Together, they were used by Dinwiddie, who was also young but very sophisticated in his style of play, and continued to attack.

At the end of the first quarter, the Nets led by 4 points at 27:23.

The game entered the second quarter, but Rivers gave Stevens a surprise. In the first half of the second quarter, he directly arranged for Durant, who had just had a two-minute break, and caught Stevens by surprise. . Facing the defense of Covington and Harris, Durant started the death harvesting mode, with mid-range shots, long-range shots, and breakthroughs. He led the team to a wave of 14:3 attacks and overtook the score. 7 points. On the Nets side, only O'Neal hit a three-pointer.

Stevens was forced to call for a timeout in favor of Durant, who played anything he wanted, with Leonard a bit more limited.

Leonard's appearance is not just as a defensive point to limit and consume Durant. At the same time, he can't see Durant on the offensive end and pretend to be dead. He has to confront Durant head-on on both ends of the offense and defense. ah. Otherwise, facing the Clippers in the future, the advantage will only be in Curry.

Sure enough, when it was implemented on the court, Leonard began to attack with the ball, facing the tall and long arms. With excellent core strength and excellent confrontation with Durant, Leonard chose to use the pick-and-roll to solve the opponent's defense, and went inside to eat Cunningham and Hawes.

Leonard's signature offensive methods are low-post fadeaway jumpers and mid-range shots after pick-and-rolls. It is not common to frequently kill the inside and make fouls. The number of shots to the inside has been reduced, and more opponents are killed in the middle distance. Today's change is also a result of the competitive spirit stimulated after seeing Durant. But as the coach said, if the team needs to fight the Clippers, they must exchange their sons with Durant.

Half of the top score was a free throw, which is obviously Harden's style of play, and Leonard did look for some fouls. But, after all, it was made a foul after hitting the inside line. Compared with pinching the arm, Rou Jiamo, and Jiwei shrimp's shooting is still better.

Of course, the Clippers fans must be screaming and scolding.
