One Thousand Three Hundred and Forty-Five. Change the Formation in Advance
Ginobili did not stop because he was blocked once. He continued to break through in singles. After a beautiful pass, he attracted Gasol to make up for the defense and passed the ball to Kwame Brown. Klay Thompson, who was passed, rushed back and hugged Kwame Brown who was about to jump and dunk with both hands after receiving the ball. It was a tactical foul!
He just blocked Ginobili once, and **Vic immediately made adjustments. This reaction speed is worthy of being one of the best coaches in the league. Sun Ce admires **Vic for this coaching alone.
Kwame Brown was sent to the free throw line, and Sun Ce saw that his side also changed players.
Coach Hollins replaced Klay Thompson with Beverley, replaced Jimmy Butler with Tony Allen, replaced Randolph with Battier...
"Fuck!"
Sun Ce was shocked to see this substitution, not to mention the players on the opposite side!
**Vic on the opposite bench wanted to fight with the bald man on the opposite side! What is this substitution going on! No more attacking?
With this lineup of the Grizzlies, if it was the first quarter when all the Spurs were full of energy, **Vic would not be afraid at all and would still attack. But now, Duncan is not here, Parker comes up to contain Sun Ce's defense instead of attacking. Parker also needs to slow down. He played very hard in the first quarter, and Gay is mainly playing a role of containment at this stage.
Unexpectedly, the bald man on the opposite side would play this trick regardless of the consequences! **Vic was very irritable, and felt that his hairstyle was developing towards the trend of the opposite head coach because of his irritability. He became more irritable.
For Sun Ce, this was actually an opportunity!
At the beginning of the second quarter, he had scored 7 points in less than 5 minutes. Obviously, Coach Hollins wanted to use his singles to score, and then fight for defense, and seize the critical moment when the opponent Duncan was not here and Gay and Parker were mainly containing.
Sun Ce guessed that he had guessed Coach Hollins's idea. He, Sun, trusted Coach Hollins' ability to judge the overall situation.
But the pressure was too great!
The positional offense was not good to begin with, and Randolph was replaced. Randolph was replaced, and Tony was brought in...
Watching Kwame Brown's high school No. 1 center free throw, Sun Ce calmed down a little, grabbed the rebound of Kwame Brown's second missed free throw and pushed forward.
Kwame Brown made the first free throw,
The Spurs extended their lead to 6 points again, leading 46-40.
In the frontcourt, Sun Ce looked for Tony Allen to pick and roll under Gay's close defense, but there was no breakthrough space and no choice to pass the ball... Sun Ce gritted his teeth, faced Ginobili's switch defense and Gay's blocking defense, tilted his body to the right to avoid being blocked by Gay, and forced a three-point shot...
The ball-holding pick and roll expert level 4 was triggered, and the error was also triggered on Ginobili who switched defense, but... This ball was a miracle if it could go in. It hit the basket with a "clang". Without Randolph's offensive rebound guarantee, a wasteful shot without confidence was equal to a mistake.
However, Kwame Brown, who grabbed the rebound, passed the ball to Dio. Dio wanted to counterattack, but had no chance!
Gay was stuck by Tony Allen, Parker was chased by Beverley like a mad dog, Kwame Brown rushed out, but he was following up, Dio could only pass the ball to Ginobili who was not good at counterattack now.
The defense of this Grizzlies lineup is really awesome!
It may not be the best, for example, Beverley is definitely not as good as Sun Ce in defending Parker, and Tony Allen is not as good as Paul George in defending Gay. In fact, it may not be as good as Sun Ce, Tony Allen, and Paul George together.
But this is definitely the best defensive lineup of the Grizzlies when Paul George is resting against the current lineup of the Spurs.
And Battier's defense against Dio is much better than Randolph's defense.
Ginobili is in good shape and continues to play singles after reaching the frontcourt. He knows that this is extremely important in the rotation stage against the Grizzlies in the playoffs, so let Parker rest at this stage.
However, the last time he was followed by Sun Ce, he thought it might be an accident, but this time he was closely followed by Sun Ce and fell into Gasol's inner defense circle!
Ginobili's first step fake move was too fake. On the other hand, he deliberately used the first step to make the opponent move, so he deliberately made it so fake, just like he didn't make any fake moves when breaking through, and directly broke through at a slower speed to seek space for change of direction.
This allows Sun Ce to move sideways at full speed with confidence, because as long as he can judge that the opponent's first step uses the acceleration and change of direction to move at full speed, he can trigger the second stage of sideways movement!
Sun Ce can't defend Ginobili's European step, but he can force the opponent not to use the European step!
This time Ginobili passed to Kwame Brown and successfully passed it to the right place, but Kwame Brown received the ball and dunked it and was slapped down by Sun Ce!
Sun Ce blocked it, and Gasol grabbed the ball, perfect defense.
Sun Ce received the ball and pushed forward, the offense and defense changed. The Spurs' defense was first-rate, but not top-tier. If the Grizzlies sent out an offensive lineup, they would have a hard time defending. But now the Grizzlies are not only not an offensive lineup, but not even a positional offensive and defensive lineup at the beginning of the second quarter. They are a tank lineup, a pure defensive formation. The Spurs' defense is as good as it can be.
Gay didn't have to worry about anything else, just blocking Sun Ce's mid-range and long-range shots. With this lineup of both sides, Kwame Brown was like Duncan at close range, a pillar of support.
It is not possible to find Battier for pick-and-roll, as Battier is not a threat when he leaves the bottom corner. Although he can shoot three-pointers in other areas, his hit rate cannot be compared with that of the bottom corner, which is over 40%.
Finding Tony and Crazy Dog Bay for pick-and-roll is purely to find double teams. Sun Ce can only find Gasol for pick-and-roll, while Kwame Brown stays at a close distance and does not come out. Gay goes around the three-point line and follows Sun Ce. No matter if Sun Ce breaks through, he follows Sun Ce closely and does not let Sun Ce shoot.
With the opponent's defense, Sun Ce cannot pass the ball back to Gasol, and it is difficult for Gasol to score over Kwame Brown even if he cuts in. Sun Ce rushes to the right baseline and shoots against the defensive hook... but misses!
Looking back, Gasol interferes with Gay's cut-in layup, so Gasol does not make the shot, and Sun Ce grabs the defensive rebound.
The two teams suddenly changed from a star-to-star confrontation with Ginobili scoring 9 points in a row and Sun Ce scoring 7 points in a row to a battle of iron shots!
It was extremely difficult for both teams to score. The Spurs' Vince was about to explode. It was hard to say whether the Grizzlies' touch would be affected if they continued playing at this pace. Klay Thompson, Paul George and Randolph of the Grizzlies were all resting off the court.
But the three big stars of the Spurs, Parker, Gay and Ginobili, would definitely be affected!
