Chapter 708: [1 trial, the road is still long]

In the second quarter, the Spurs sent tj Ford, Ginobili, Budinger, Bonner, Split.
Three three-point field goal points, Ford and Bonner played pick-and-rolls, Ginobili was screened near Split's bottom line, and was ready to empty the basket at any time.
Victory's tactics are also based on rationality. He didn't send too many defensive players to replace the bench. The goal was to strengthen the offensive and grab points. Leonard went down and rested again, waiting for the match with Guy.
There is an embarrassing situation. Ford hasn't practiced three-pointers, he must have the ball to break through, layups or sudden points, otherwise he will not be able to play a role. He was hurt a few times, his speed has not been as amazing as the rookie period.
On the defensive end, Ford is even worse. He is 180cm tall and weighs only 75kg. His hands are fast and he can steal. Interfering with shots is a weakness.
Let Curry, who is not good at interfering with shots, is best at stopping jump shots. Isn't this looking for abuse? Vicky also has no choice, and marginal point guard Cory Joseph is even worse.
Joseph is 191cm tall and weighs 84kg. The template is aj-Pres. It was only in the middle of the second round when the draft was predicted. Vicky thought he had the potential to replace George Hill, and he was selected in the first round.
In the last season of college, Joseph made 3% of his three-pointers. He was not selfish in playing. He passed the ball well enough and made fewer mistakes. University of Texas coach Rick Barnes once said that Corey Joseph is the best defensive defender he has ever brought, and he still has the potential to improve.
It turned out that Vicky looked away. Joseph's excellent premise is that he can't keep up with the rhythm at the university. He is more like a shooter than a point guard. He lacks creativity on the court and cannot create his own scoring opportunities. The three-pointer is not allowed.
If Joseph is playing, it means that there are fewer offenses on the outside, and the defensive end is not very good. Split is a blue-collar center with no range. If there is a blue-collar guard who will not organize, the game will not be played.
Spurs No. 1 Ford unexpectedly became a weakness, grabbed by the Clippers and attacked. The game was very simple. Curry directly singled with the ball.
Tony Allen played against Ginobili, and he was not entangled in the moment. The small forward was Korver. It was not difficult to defend Budinger. The offensive end opened a three-point opportunity, and other work did not need to be done.
Inside is Farid and Parsons, five dead, Farid is in charge of the restricted area, against Split.
Tiago Split is a Brazilian player with a height of 211cm and a weight of 111 kilograms. He plays mainly as a power forward. He has a long arm, a high level of bouncing and a strong mobility. His defense and rebounding are excellent. His offense mainly relies on empty cuts from the bottom line. He shoots from the rim. He has no mid-range and long-range shooting skills.
Yang Rui felt that putting Split as the main attack was much less threatening than Ginobili, and sent a pick-and-roll lineup to completely disrupt the opponent's arrangement.
As long as Yang Rui sent Aron Gray, the Spurs played double screens, and the two guards broke through, there was always one person who could play against Gray who was not good at pick-and-roll. Unexpectedly, Gray was a decoration, sitting on the sidelines guarding the water dispenser.
Ginobili is very difficult to get rid of Tony Allen, and will pick up Parsons and Farid after the pick-and-place misplacement. The latter is faster than him.
Split played strongly four times, guaranteed half of his field goal percentage, and scored 4 points. Once he missed the shot, the Clippers immediately counterattacked, and the offensive efficiency was higher.
"Red Mamba" Bonner's defense is very clever, and he does not suffer from confrontation. He can play a role in anti-position warfare. He will be miserable against Parsons. The opponent can shoot suddenly and faster than him. Singles are misplaced.
Parsons' defense against Bonner is much simpler, as long as you keep the distance to interfere with the shot, the two are similar in height. Bonner has a weight advantage but can't take advantage of it, and lacks the ability to hold the ball.
The difference in points continued to widen, Vicky made substitutions in advance, and Parker returned to the game to counter Curry to stabilize the situation. But Parker was also not good at attacking, and the Clippers' small lineup changed too fast.
In the second half, the Spurs replaced the main force, the Clippers can rotate more people, Griffin and Farid partner inside, Paul, Curry double guard, small forward is Guy, continue to fight back.
This lineup maximizes the speed advantage, Duncan's defense is difficult, and Scola can't run farid. The Spurs were forced to attack the Clippers.
At the end of the half, the Clippers led 66 to 45.
Buckley commented: "I think the Clippers will win this season. They have excellent offense and defense. The Spurs can't easily break through their defense. If they don't play small ball tactics, it will be more difficult for opponents to score. Chandler, Pakistan After Teal joined, they were the strongest team in the league."
Smith laughed: "Unfortunately this season there are only 66 regular season games, the Clippers can not break the best record."
There are many outstanding defensive players who set an example, and Griffin, Curry and others are becoming more and more active on the defensive end. If you are not active, your opponent can see where the defensive weaknesses are and push them hard.
At the beginning of the second half, the Clippers changed their position to attack. Three people who could defend for a while and Battier and Griffin strengthened their defense. The Spurs did not score in 5 minutes of sports. Duncan and Split did not make free throws. Precisely, the point difference continues to widen.
Yang Rui predicted the Spurs' routine. If he wants to reverse the game, he must exert force in the third quarter. If the big score falls behind and enters the final quarter, the player's psychological pressure will increase and it is easy to produce impatience.
As long as it withstands this wave of offensive, the Clippers will definitely win, and also consume the physical strength of the opponent's offensive players.
After reducing the rhythm, the two sides were evenly matched, the Clippers led by 20 points at the end of the third quarter, and the game entered garbage time.
In the last quarter, Yang Rui sent Curry, Danny Green, Guy, Parsons, and Griffin to defend the breakthrough and three points, and attack the Spurs.
The Spurs also sent a small lineup to grab points. Bonner hit the center and scored three three-pointers in the single quarter~EbookFREE.me~ But even if Bonner played well, he scored 13 points in this quarter and failed to help the Spurs. Recover the score and end in a disastrous defeat.
The Clippers attacked better. Parsons organized the striker to evacuate the inside. Curry and Green ran to catch the ball and shot. Griffin could impact the rim after covering.
The Clippers won 124 to 99 and scored high in two consecutive games.
The team scored in double figures with 6 people, Guy 22 points and 5 rebounds, Paul 18 points, 15 assists and 2 steals, Griffin 20 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists, Curry 17 points and 4 assists.
In terms of blue-collar role players, Chandler scored 6 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, Tony Allen scored 4 points, 1 assists and 2 steals. Battier hit two three-pointers and scored 6 points.
Looking at the stats alone, these three are no big deal, but when they were together in the third quarter, the Spurs couldn't get into the penalty zone at all. They could only greet people at a distance from the rim, and the rhythm was completely chaotic.
The Clippers two rookies played well this time, Farid played 20 minutes, scored 12 points and 10 rebounds, 4 dunks. Parsons made 5 of 8 shots, 2 of 5 3-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 14 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.
The Spurs' two rookies performed poorly. Leonard played 20 minutes and shot 1 of 3 with only 2 points and 6 rebounds. Now Leonard's task is to catch the ball and he has a long way to go.
Corey Joseph only played 4 minutes during garbage time and made 0 of 2 shots. All stats are zero.
Yang Rui said in an interview: "The Clippers have many excellent defensive players. We are not only attacking and winning. The third quarter is an attempt. I am proud of their performance."
The reporter asked: "What do you think of the Spurs?"
Yang Rui thought for a while and said easily: "Before the newcomers grow up, the Spurs have no championship strength. They only rely on the veteran trident, they can't win the Clippers."
