The Warriors didn't expect that even though Iguodala performed very well, he still didn't have the upper hand in the bench time. Because there was actually a guy on the opposite side who was "playing dead" in the regular season. Cole didn't do this.

Unexpectedly, Pierce's performance in the regular season this season is remarkable, with not many bright spots. His presence in the regular season is even not as strong as Nick Young's. But in the playoffs, if you look again, he will suddenly be as good as the regular season.

The difference is that his tactical status on the bench surpasses that of Nick Young. His average data per game is also rising. This is the so-called "having an old man in a family is like having a treasure".

Signing them, to put it to the extreme, is for the playoffs.

They themselves know this very well.

Therefore, we should try our best to conserve our physical strength during the regular season and play more intensively in the playoffs.

This wave of confrontations between him and Iguodala as substitutes led no one to expect, including Lakers fans. After all, Pierce's performance in the regular season was really unremarkable. In the previous rounds, he also played relatively poorly.

It's easy. Pierce's performance can only be said to be stable and has not yet reached a level that is memorable. Until this game, he suddenly gained a sense of presence.

Many new Lakers fans are still asking, who is the hot guy? He is very good. He can play against Iguodala.

Then he was "ridiculed" by a group of old fans and popular science said: This man was one of the men we hated the most back then. One once claimed that "I am the best player in the world, not Kobe". One blocked

The guy on the 24th who won three consecutive dynasties. A guy who won the FMVP in 2008. Do you think he played pretty well?

In his prime, Iguodala was not on the same level as Pierce, right?

This means that Pierce is old, otherwise, this matchup will be destroyed.

The first comeback failed in the bench time, and Cole made a special change. Nonsense, at this time, at the top of the Western Conference Finals, the opponent is still known as the strongest defensive team in history. What big reversal can ordinary tactics achieve?

The effect? ​​Didn’t you try everything just now? The effect is not good. Therefore, you have to use some clever tricks.

You have to be bolder.

How to do it? It's very simple. He made a special layout. Green held the ball in the top arc and took charge of the attack.

This wave of changes is very bold. Although Green is now a star, he is strong in defense and all-around, not offensive. And Green this year is not last year. Cole used Green to play like this last year, and Green hit the iron. Let this

The tactics can't work out at all. But this year is different. Green's three-pointers are very accurate this year. In the regular season, it was a career high of 38.8%. In the playoffs, it also reached about 37%. So this year, the Warriors' perimeter is exceptionally good.

Powerful. Green's three-pointer is crucial.

If his three-pointers can be stable, the top arc support will become impossible to let go, so the Warriors can easily tear apart the opponent's defense. But if Green's three-pointers are not good, it cannot be done. For example, last year, Green's three-pointers

The ball's shooting rate is only 26%. He averages four or five shots per game. It is definitely not lethal enough. It doesn't matter if he lets it go. The Cavaliers did this in the original time and space finals, trying to let Green go, and then got

Defensive liberation to a certain extent. Unfortunately, this season is different. Green's three-pointers are very accurate, so it is difficult for you to ignore him. If you go out to defend, the 4th position cannot stop him at all. How tall is Green? Absolutely

The defender's speed is why the Warriors are so irresistible in this year's regular season.

Invincible.

Now, Cole directly let Green take the main attack, and Green also tried his best and hit several three-pointers, which made the Lakers a little concerned about one thing and the other. Neither Yi Jianlian nor Randall could stop him. Moreover, the continuous scoring also made Green competitive.

The state has been greatly improved, and the overall game has become more aggressive. Of course, the Lakers can play Covington, but now both sides are competing, and neither of them can easily play the strongest lineup. As a result, the Lakers have also made changes.

Lee Brown used the extremely athletic Josh Smith to go up.

Speed ​​and strength will not suffer.

Moreover, what Larry Brown wants is definitely not that simple.

Some people may ask, can a person like Smith take on this heavy defensive task? It is indeed difficult for him who has been used to it before. But after being trained by Larry Brown this whole season, he has obvious defensive attitude and defensive ability.

They have all recovered. Why do we talk about recovery instead of improvement? Because this guy was originally very defensive. But he gradually became undisciplined and stayed in a bad team for a long time, so he gradually forgot how to defend.

Do you think this is a joke? NO~ If I told you that Josh Smith once won the NBA All-Defensive Team, would you believe it? But it is a fact. And he was only 24 years old that year.

And in the original time and space, he was still very athletic when he was 34 to 35 years old, not to mention that he is only 30 to 31 now, which is still the golden age of basketball players. So it has been so long, he should wake up. Larry Brown is a substitute player this season

Among them, the one who spent the most time on it was Covington, and then there was Josh Smith. This guy is obviously a defensive genius, but he has forgotten how to defend because he has played on a bad team for so long. What a waste of talent.

.

Fortunately, he is still young now, and his athletic ability is still online at this age, so he will not decline too much. In addition, he does not need to work hard on the offensive end. He can just defend with all his strength and do a good job in 3D. Is he suitable? Very suitable. Hot-headed change

It doesn't matter if he doesn't. Just show his strongest defensive side. Green just made a few performances where he felt good about himself. The previous ball was even easily broken through and beaten because Yi Jianlian was too concerned about his three-pointer.

A beautiful thrower. So now Green is gaining momentum.

After seeing Larry Brown's change of formation, many people thought it was a joke.

Really? You guys who have spent so long training me, do you really think it’s a joke? It’s so muddy that it can’t hold up the wall, so I would have kicked him off a long time ago. Stupid people in the world, let me show you.

The results of my training.

I dare not say anything else, but I will definitely do my part when it comes to defensive stimulation.

After the game, the entire Lakers team also talked about this issue. Josh was a defensive beast tonight.

This is something that is unanimously recognized.

Green also wanted a three-pointer fake for this ball, and then took a long stride to hit the inside and make a small throw. His state tonight was fed by the consecutive three-pointers just now. In addition, the head coach designated him as the main player.

, this also makes Green feel full of confidence. Hehehe, do you see? The Splash brothers are in trouble now, and they still have to rely on their brothers!

I am also one of the giants of this team.

Come watch me perform tonight!

My hand feels very good too.

Then just score 30 to 40 points in one go. Green is indeed better at scoring in the playoffs than in the regular season. His highest career score was actually in the playoffs. And the top two were both in the playoffs. He also once

He made 8 three-pointers in one breath in the playoffs. So, don’t underestimate him. When the Warriors perform poorly in the playoffs, the Splash Brothers often have someone to step up.

Green is one of them.

Seeing that Josh Smith was so much taller than him, he thought that he could just beat the big one with one breath. But he didn't know that he was hit by a big fire just after the ball went in.

The ball was blocked very cleanly and beautifully, and then Beverley of the Lakers took advantage and ran directly over to complete a single fast break.

Green was a little annoyed. He was a big mouth, so he shouted at Josh Smith: "You dare to cover me? You little substitute!"

Before Josh Smith could speak, Tang Qian said for him: "Spray Josh back, he is just an ordinary blue-collar worker."

I am... blue collar??? Can you please stop farting!!!!! My assists and organizational skills have been eaten up by you? My scoring in this game has been eaten up by you? Who do you look down on? Green has not spoken yet

, Smith, who received the support of Tang Qian, also puffed up his chest and said to Green: "You are the one who is blocking me! Your scoring method is as clumsy as the clown!"

"Who do you think you are! You dare to sneer at me? Just wait! If I don't blow you up later, you'll be the one to blame!" Green is famous for his big mouth in the league, and he usually won't stop talking. This is what everyone thinks.

We are all used to it, so it would be abnormal for him not to speak. The Lakers missed the ball, which was a pretty good opportunity. Tang Qian passed the ball and missed from the outside mid-range.

After the Warriors got the ball, they still focused on Green, and it was up to Green to choose whether to pass or attack.

But before he touched the ball, he had already decided what to do with it.

He hit Josh Smith hard, which made Cole frown a little. Sure enough, the ball was interfered with and destroyed at the moment of attack and defense. Looking at the slow motion, it should be regarded as a block. However, the ball was fouled. Green heard the whistle

After the whistle, he was amnesty. Because he was blocked after being defended twice in a row, his momentum and face were cut off. So this whistle saved him.

Let him taunt Josh Smith instead. Look, little scumbag, thank you for sending me to the free throw line. I scored again.

Green was also more confident and made 2 of 2 free throws. When he defended after hitting the ball, he was still chattering at Josh Smith. Smith was very angry because he was not a good-tempered person and had done a lot of bad things in the past. So he treated Green

Not convinced.

You are just a third man on the Warriors, do you really think of yourself as a big star?

The Lakers attacked, missed the mid-range shot after the pick-and-roll, and Tang Qian got the rebound again! Because the Warriors haven't played Bogut yet, they can only use Festus to temporarily support him. Unknowingly,

Tang Qian has become one of those with good physical fitness in the playoffs. It would be a dream for ordinary players to compete with them in physical fitness and playing time. Therefore, he accurately targeted the landing point of the ball, successfully reversed the position, and then saw

The Warriors attempted to play the ball immediately after assisting the defense.

The basketball reached the 45-degree three-point line on the right side.

Josh Smith catches and shoots.

Josh Smith's three-point shooting in the regular season this season was average, but he was like a miracle in the playoffs.

Similar to the original time and space, it actually reached 50%! In this year's playoffs, the Lakers' bench was full of sharpshooters. One by one, they all performed far beyond normal. But there are also objective reasons. The Lakers

This season's inside kill ability is too strong, so whether it is a first pass or a second pass, it is easy to create a big open opportunity. In this way, it makes sense for the shot to come up. It is not a crazy shot that is difficult to hit people.

But even so, 50% of the three-pointers and open shots are really strong.

hit.

After Josh Smith scored a goal, he shook his fist at Green. This is how these Lakers players express themselves now. They must be tough enough. They must not lose their morale and fight back strongly. Green and Smith got angry because of the fight. This goal

This is a situation of open singles. It seems that Green is determined to suppress the latter. The best effect is to hit the open singles.

What about the Lakers? They were also very cooperative. They directly helped to open up and let the two people go to the top of the arc for a one-on-one.

One-on-one, Green really overestimates himself. His shooting percentage and scoring have increased this season, and his scoring average has reached a career high. However, that is only 14 points per game. It has definitely not broken the boundaries of blue-collar workers. And

, this is still the data that the Splash Brothers attracted too much defensive pressure. Just beating him himself is completely nonsense.

To average 10 points per game is too much.

So this one-on-one, Green broke through with a triple threat, and then tried to squeeze the opponent away with his body, and then shot. As a result, before Tang Qian had time to jump up to help block the shot, a figure next to Green directly shot

Soaring into the air, he took the lead with a "volleyball big hat"! The ball flew through the air! The ball went directly out of the baseline.

I said ~ So fierce???
