: Three hundred and four. Strategy

When the two famous coaches faced ordinary opponents, they let the players play on their own. If they were in trouble, the players could find a way to deal with them by relying on their usual tactical training.
When encountering a truly strong team, tactics or strategies are useless. At that time, the players rely on their own performance and see who performs well.
At this time, Popovich and the difference between Zen masters and ordinary coaches are reflected. They will calculate the opponent from the psychological aspect.
For example, when the Spurs played against the Warriors in the 12-13 season, Curry hit consecutive three-pointers, and Popovich called a timeout whenever Curry hit a three-pointer, and kept calling until the timeout was spent.
In this way, Curry seemed a little irritable, and had a blind faith in his scoring ability, thinking that he scared his opponents, so he kept shooting.
But Curry couldn't win the game with his own shooting. He kept shooting until the third quarter because of a decline in physical strength. He started to miss consecutively. In the fourth quarter, he shot three non-sticks. The Spurs took the opportunity to chase points and eventually the Spurs. Win that series.
In fact, the Spurs only replayed their regular tactics in that game, and it was the Warriors who broke down.
When Popovich faced James in the finals of the past two years, he has always used a strategy to put James in the shot, except for this that the Spurs played as usual.
James saw that even his opponent didn't care about his CIC, and he didn't even dare to vote, who had no confidence in his CIC.
He couldn't pass the ball and didn't dare to shoot the ball. The Heat's offense was dragged down by James' hesitation.
At this time, the Heat coach has no way to stop James from holding the ball?
It's even more impossible. James, who doesn't hold the ball, has been seen in the 11th Finals and played badly.
The Heat were played between applause by Popovich in the Finals for two consecutive years. If it weren’t for the two free throws that Leonard missed in the summer of 2013 and Ray Allen’s three-pointer worth a championship ring, Bo Povic's Finals coaching career was perfect.
Bickerstaff has been an old coach for so many years, and he has also figured out some things in this regard. If this game wants to break the deadlock between the two sides, it is necessary to start from Crawford.
There are many things related to the game against the Clippers. First of all, the new owner of the Clippers, Ballmer, started clamoring to change the name of the King of Los Angeles to them after he took office.
The second is that the Clippers are likely to be one of the Lakers' biggest opponents in the playoffs this year.
After studying the games before and after the Clippers’ rise, Bickerstaff and D'Antoni found that the Clippers could change drastically. In addition to Paul, Griffin and Jordan’s Big Three playing better, Crawford led the first The second lineup is equally important!
But although Crawford had good data before, he also won the best sixth man and even scored 50+ points in a single game, but his efficiency has always been very low, the winning score is very low, at best, the bench will not be pulled away. score.
It wasn't until the Clippers introduced Kim Terry late last season that Crawford followed the new style of play to make the Clippers's claim to be the most expensive bench lineup to become a real combat force.
So Bickerstaff asked the media related to the team to contact the major media before the Lakers began their road trip, starting from Twitter or in the small section of the website, and newspapers were not a small section of the headline, and started to talk about Crawford. The language is not fierce, but it is a very targeted attack, and there is irony. While saying that he used to play alone, he said that he is old and can't score. The position of singles king is another Los Angeles player.
In the game, Nick Young was used to deliberately provocative heads-up. Streetball players like Crawford were easy to be ignited. Nick Young successfully angered Crawford.
Obviously, this worked!
What Crawford is thinking about now is to prove that he is better than Nick Young, holding the ball and thinking about attacking the basket.
Bickerstaff blew his whistle and gave Whiteside and Antetokounmbo a gesture to shrink the defense.
Whiteside and Antetokounmpo nodded, Antetokounmpo came to the elbow zone, Whiteside began to command the defensive position of his teammates.
This gesture, a fairly simple tactic, is to prevent the line and force Crawford to go to the bottom line.
Bickerstaff's strategy was successful, and Crawford fell into the trap!
If Liu Ren desperately wants to prevent Crawford from breaking through, then Davis just needs to block him, but Liu Ren's kind of thing is equivalent to letting Crawford break into the inside, and Davis does not know what to do. Blocking people in the past might block your teammates.
Liu Ren's defense like this made Davis's pick and roll useless. Liu Ren stuck to the line and put the bottom line, and Crawford hit Liu Ren directly to get on the line. The pick-and-roll is to block the defender on the offensive line. If Davis is on the line, it is useless. Liu Ren goes around and blocks in the middle. For such a long distance, even if Liu Ren is blocked by Davis, Adeto Kunbo can also defend from the elbow zone.
If Davis is going to stop Liu Ren from the downline and let Crawford break through to the bottom line smoothly, this is in line with Liu Ren's wishes. Antetokounmpo and Whiteside are waiting!
Crawford was smoothly suppressed to the bottom line, and immediately faced Antetokounmpo and Whiteside interception, followed by Liu Ren who was chasing and defending, Crawford forcibly missed a mid-range shot, Liu Ren The chase came in just to grab a defensive rebound.
Fight back!
Liu Ren's own defensive rebound and counterattack one-stop!
No one can catch up with him. Farmar is the most capable of running in the Clippers, but he has good physical strength and can run. His speed is first-rate, but it is not enough compared with top players like Liu Ren, Rondo, and James. Look.
Liu Ren made a simple gliding one-handed buckle to end the attack. There is nothing fancy in the action, just one word-stretch!
Crawford was a bit paranoid, stubbornly wanting to go on his own, and fell into the trap set by Bickerstaff. The Lakers defensively counterattacked consecutive points.
If the Clippers return to defense in time, leave it to Nick Young to take Crawford one-on-one~EbookFREE.me~ to evoke Crawford's competitive spirit.
Sometimes it can hurt people to be competitive. The better Nick Young plays and the more points he scores, Crawford wants to play better and score more points than Nick Young.
What can the Clippers do?
Crawford is the boss of this bench. Crawford’s lack of cooperation caused the Clippers’ offense to fall into a quagmire, and the defense was unable to play. The Lakers used this to play a 14-2 scoring shock wave. Rivers quickly called a timeout. .
50 to 32, just a few minutes, the Lakers widened the point difference to more than 15 points!
The Lakers have the upper hand!
It is very important to be the first to determine the lead in the battle for the strong!
Taking advantage of Crawford's weakness, the scoring shock wave made the Clippers become a chasing party from the beginning of the game, and the Lakers took the lead.
The party who successfully executes the tactics will never change the strategy first. This is an unchanging truth on the basketball court.
