In the second match between the two sides, Paul made his debut, and the other four were Danny Green, Battier, Guy, Griffin. Chandler came off the bench and the Clippers played a small ball tactic directly.
The Rockets didn't have two low-posted offenses at all. Hawes went out to cover and Harden broke through. Griffin came to the center to have no problem.
Harden faced Griffin and Chandler after the pick and roll. When he encountered a double-team, he could also forcibly break through the layup or swindle fouls. Now that Battier changed to a pick-and-roll, Harden suddenly struggled. Griffin can also retract the restricted area and empty Greg Smith.
The Clippers' tactics are very simple, and they are also midfield pick-and-rolls. The same tactics, different effects, the rockets are miserable.
Hawes is offensively compatible with Harden, because he can block people, pass well, can shoot long and medium distance, and can be used as an offensive relay. But on the defensive end, his pace was too slow, and a little quicker inside can "eat dumplings". What is even more piteous is that he can't fight. He can't stand his position at all. Griffin has a chance to squeeze and can't vote. You can make up the basket twice.
If on other teams, Hawes may be able to get the help of his teammates, there will be some defense in the basket. Unfortunately, his current teammates are a group of Uchiha, including himself...
The second quarter was to organize forward tactics, Parsons centered and responded, Korver's side attracted defense, Chandler gave Curry a screenless ball, and then cut open, and Farid to grab a backcourt rebound.
The Rockets have another weakness. Patrick Patterson, Marcus Morris, Terrence Jones, and Motel Yunus are not good at protecting rebounds.
The Rockets can play a lot of inside, and they can shoot, can open up space, keep up with the current trend, but there is no blue-collar, but also a fatal weakness.
In contrast, the Clippers' two blue collars are the league's recognized rebounders. Chandler averaged 3.4 offensive rebounds per game and Farid 3.3. As long as the Rockets get out of the penalty area to prevent the block, no matter which side the two cut from, there is a good chance of grabbing the offensive rebound.
The Rocket big man has been shrinking around the penalty area but can't do it. Curry took the ball. No matter how aggressive Beverly was, he was blocked by the cover, and it took time to pursue and defend. He is only 185cm tall and has the weakness of the short guard. It's not good to block shots.
Yang Rui sent his troops to target the Rockets' weaknesses. The Clippers led by 29 points with only halftime, and the Rockets spent more time.
In the second half, it was bench training time. Draymond Green came to the center and Parsons 4th. Both of them pulled out to pass the ball, creating a breakthrough space for the outside. The ball attack was handed over to Barbosa and Guy. Only Korver's position is relatively fixed, making a stable three point.
Even with the full bench, the Clippers are not afraid of the Rockets. Besides, there are three other players who can start with other teams. In the third quarter, the difference continued to widen, reaching 35 points at the end.
The Clippers opened the three-point line and Parsons, Korver, Barbosa and Green jointly contributed 8 three-pointers.
The marginalist Green is the object of being shorted, and two three-pointers in the middle are the biggest highlights. He hasn't played much this season, has been released to the Development League, and is practicing hard three-pointers and organizing passes every day.
Green is stronger than Yang Rui's previous life at the same time. The core of his training is clear, which is the most suitable for his style of play. He can also do a guest center, similar height, he is stronger than Farid, can resist most inside.
Playing well, Yang Rui continued to play Green in the final quarter. He played 25 minutes, 5 of 10 shots, 2 of 4 3-pointers, 2 of 3 free throws, 12 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
The Clippers scored the most with Parsons, scoring 27 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
Seven Clippers scored in double figures, winning 129 to 87.
In online news, some media used the word "unfortunately" to describe the Rockets. They were destined to be abused in the first round of the Clippers.
After the game, several well-performing players went to the press conference. Countless reporters interviewed Parsons. He relied on Junlang's image and skill, and he was very popular.
After being selected by the Clippers in the second round in 2011, Parsons has become one of the most "low-paying and capable" players in the league. This game is the second year of his career, and many teams have been eyeing him. The Clippers and Parsons signed a four-year contract, the next two years is the team's option.
Parsons was very humble in the interview, and Green was much more funny in the interview.
A reporter asked about Green’s five goals today, and Green said seriously,
I am the best center in the league.
He smiled blankly for a few seconds and then smiled: "No, I'm just trying to play."
A 201CM player becomes the best center? Sounds very happy. But this series is likely to become a fact, the short inside makes the Rockets uncomfortable.
Against the Rockets away, Yang Rui gave Draymond Green a lot of time to perform. In the second quarter, he and Chandler partnered and Farid took a break.
Farid's style is fierce, and he is aggressive in grabbing rebounds. Yang Rui is worried that he will be off in such a must-win series. If he is injured, it is not worth it. It is better to save his strength and wait for the next series. .
After Green's appearance, he was responsible for the strategy of the middle road. Parsons, Korver and Curry were in the side activities, and Chandler was responsible for the cover. The coordination was simple and smooth.
Farid can't make it, the team will focus on the positional battle, facing the Rockets offense can be combined to prevent the position, the defense is also more stable.
The Clippers easily won two more games, averaging 32 points for the Rockets and sweeping through the promotion.
The Clippers had many highlights in the first round, three points from Danny Green, Korver, Curry, Griffin's inner power, and Parsons' overall.
Parsons blasted veteran Caron Butler, averaging 15.5 points, 5 rebounds and 3.7 assists. His shooting percentage was ~EbookFREE.me~ 40% from three.
If it is a star, playing this kind of data can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, but Parsons is a rookie in the second round of the second round, and the performance is very amazing. The media described Parsons as another star cultivated by Yang Rui. He may be selected as an All-Star in the future.
Rocket players' performance is terrible, collective sleepwalking
Harden has only one outstanding core performance, averaging 26.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists. It looks like a star, but his shooting percentage is only 39.1%, three-point percentage is 34.1%, and even free throw percentage has been reduced to 80%.
Harden also had the highest 4.5 turnovers per game for the two teams. This performance is unconvincing. He still has a long way to go before becoming a superstar.
The media also slammed the Rockets' head coach McHale. As one of the league's top 50 superstars, McHale's reputation has not been very good, to a large extent due to his failure to operate the Timberwolves.
It is risky for the Rockets to find McHale, who has been a general manager for 14 years and a two-year head coach. McHale can't look at people. He has a bigger problem with employment, and even a little amateur. For example, he often arranges players five times and five times on the court. This type of substitution is usually only seen in the All-Star Game, which can easily cause the overall state of the team to fluctuate.
McHale, who has only two years of coaching experience, is difficult to compare with Yang Rui, whether it is a tactical system or a spot change, even if he is much older than Yang Rui.
No wonder the American media depreciated him: "As a player, he is great, but he has failed in other basketball-related work."
In the contest between the four and five players in the Western Conference, the Mavericks and Warriors are both slow-tempo position teams, playing similarly. They played 2 to 2 and were the closest team in the first round.
The Clippers players are at ease and are in a good position without playing in the second round.
