Chapter 1428 Opposition of Spear and Shield
"That's how the Sixers lost."
"Yeah, their signature offense didn't work at all, and they only scored 96 points in this game, which is a bit low for the 76ers."
"The teammates are completely out of shape, it's really iron. Iguodala 13 points, Leonard 11 points, Speights 4 points, Nene 7 points, the main lineup is only Qin who played normally and scored 29 points. , but it's obviously not enough for him to play normally, and he couldn't make three-pointers."
"I have to say that the Spurs are the Spurs. They are really powerful. The 76ers were not inferior to the Heat and the Bulls before, and they were still defended so badly against the Spurs..."
When the game ended, it immediately caused a heated discussion.
People are a little disappointed with the performance of the 76ers. They played very well against the defending champions in the Eastern Conference semifinals and against the Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals. Even if Butler was sidelined due to injury, they still successfully defeated the Bulls and entered the finals. , but did not expect the finals, the first game was like this.
at the same time.
in the hotel.
Coach Luke gathered everyone, came to the conference room, and began to study the video of the game and make a post-match summary.
A group of players drooped their heads and were not satisfied with their own performance in this game, which should not be the performance they should have.
"Okay, all look up." Coach Luke clapped his hands and said angrily: "This game is over, forget this game, the important thing is the next game, understand?"
"Understood." Everyone raised their heads, and there was light in their eyes.
The game is over, all losers are lost.
And Coach Luke also understands that many players are playing in the finals for the first time, and they may not even think that they can play in the finals, like a dream.
Under such circumstances, I worry about gains and losses, that is, I am excited to be on the stage of the finals, but I am worried that I will not perform well. As a result, it is not surprising that I did not perform well under this emotion.
Everyone needs experience to grow.
Just like the previous three-round series, if it hadn’t been for the successful defeat of the Heat in the second round, the 76ers might not have played so well in the Eastern Conference finals, because they have been trained and improved after seven games against the Heat. Only in the Eastern Finals can burst out a powerful energy and successfully beat the Bulls.
The same is true for the finals. Players need to experience it before they can be tempered, gradually adapt, and then adjust themselves.
Losing the first game, Coach Luke was mentally prepared.
"Look at the video of the game," Coach Luke said, signaling the video analyst to start playing.
While watching the video of the game, Coach Luke was also analyzing the players.
The players themselves can see from the video that they were a little nervous at the time. The question should not be committed by a player of their level.
Of course, the focus of Coach Luke's analysis is not this, but the tactics, the style of play, and the defensive habits and characteristics of the Spurs.
The players are nervous, and he believes that if they are given a little time, they will be able to adjust.
But if you want to win the game, you must not only adjust yourself, but also pay attention to the opponent, understand the opponent, and then respond accordingly to defeat the opponent.
"You saw it too," Coach Luke said. "The Spurs have a strong defense, although their offense is also very good, especially Duncan. We're at a disadvantage at the 4. But the most important thing is theirs. On defense, in the first game, the opponent consciously interrupted our offensive fluidity and prevented us from scoring consecutively, so it was difficult for us to find the touch."
"And our advantage is in the offense, and we have to play the offense we should have before we can beat Spurs."
Hearing this, Qin Hao nodded secretly.
Based on what he knew about the Spurs in his previous life, coupled with the identity of his current opponent, put himself in his shoes and then analyze it. His side and the Spurs are like a confrontation between a spear and a shield. To defeat the Spurs, you must use your own characteristics and avoid weaknesses , to win by attacking.
"So..." Coach Luke emphasized: "First and foremost, we have to play our offense and score more points than the Spurs."
Subsequently, Coach Luke analyzed ball by ball, dissecting the Spurs' defense, looking for loopholes in their defense...
Meanwhile, the Spurs are also working on game footage.
Although he won the first game, Popovich did not feel relieved.
He could see that the players of the 76ers were a little nervous, which was a sign of their lack of experience in the finals, but this was a series, not a life-and-death match. As the series progressed, they would definitely adapt and gradually Retrieve status.
So, winning the first game is nothing, what matters is how to win the next few games.
"We still have to do a good job of defense." Popovich pointed to the big screen and said, "Just like this game, we have to limit the opponent's three-pointers, and we would rather let the opponent get two points than let the opponent. To get three points, you can't let the opponent score consecutively, and you have to drag the game into our rhythm."
"One more thing, defense against Qin."
Mr. Popovich was not satisfied with the defense against Qin Hao in the first game, and allowed Qin Hao to score 29 points, which in itself means that their defense was not good enough.
If it weren't for the poor condition of the other players of the 76ers team, driven by Qin Hao's outstanding performance, the result might have been different.
Therefore, they must further strengthen their defense against Qin Hao!
One side is emphasizing offense, while the other is emphasizing defense, because the characteristics of the two sides are different, and the most important point is to keep your own rhythm. Once you fall into the rhythm of others, everything is out of control.
......
a day later.
In the hotel, 76ers players are preparing for Game 2 of the Finals.
Qin Hao came to the first floor downstairs. Jiang Xue and Vivian lived on this floor. Jiang Xue would stay by Qin Hao's side throughout the finals.
It was Vivian who opened the door, she smiled at Qin Hao, and then flashed out of the room, leaving the room to Qin Hao and Jiang Xue.
Qin Hao was just about to shout, "You don't have to go, just say a few words", but Vivian had already strode away, so he didn't bother to care, looking at his girlfriend who smiled and smiled, his heart was full of sweetness: "We're going to go to the ball. Hall."
"Vivian and I will come over in a while, and I will cheer you on on the sidelines." Jiang Xue smiled, stood on tiptoe, and kissed actively, "We must win."
"Well." Qin Hao stopped his girlfriend, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "I immediately felt an inexplicable power blessing when you kissed me, why don't you give me a few more kisses?"
Without waiting for Jiang Xue to react, he has already taken action...
