Chapter 741 [Little people dominate the game]

In the sixth round, Gay only missed the Clippers’ first goal in a single shot. After that, they also maintained a high shooting percentage. The outside players shot resolutely, and their teammates may also grab rebounds if they miss the shot.

Chandler grabbed two offensive rebounds, split the perimeter for his teammates to reorganize, and Griffin grabbed one offensive rebound and scored directly.

The Cavaliers' overall rebounding control is poor, ranking only 19th in the league in the regular season, which is the premise of Varejao.In Yang Rui's previous life, the Heat once ranked last in the league in rebounding.

Poor rebounds, head coach Adelman to bear the main responsibility, he has never been a good defensive coach.In terms of command, the gap between "Playoff Coach" Adelman and "Championship Coach" Yang Rui is not a little bit.

Because Adelman is sloppy, he often shows himself as a bad old man, especially when he scratches his ears and cheeks on the sidelines, he looks unreliable, and the defense he arranges is always partial attack.

Partial pinching will put a lot of pressure on the opposing point guard, because the defense of the Big Three covers a wide area, but this defense must have a good tacit understanding of rotation, otherwise there will often be gaps.Then there is the issue of rebounding. Going out of position will cause the inside line to go out for defense, and there is no big man to protect the backcourt rebounds.

In the Cavaliers defensive system, Bosh's tasks include blocking defenders' pick-and-roll breakthroughs, pinching stars, and protecting rebounds. There is no insider service for these three tasks. The Cavaliers' defensive method is destined to spend a lot of energy on Bosh. In the first two items, it is reasonable to become a "wave one board".

5 minutes later, Adelman, who was attacking the penalty area by the Clippers, called a timeout and replaced the Brazilian actor Varejao.

No substitutions can't work. At this moment, Griffin has 8 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Chandler also has 4 points, and the Clippers lead 18-8.

Miller has been running back and forth, the offense and defense are useless, all the data are zero, he has only one shot, and missed under the interference of Griffin.

After the timeout, the Cavaliers’ defensive intensity in the penalty area increased, their own offense became worse, there was one less three-point shooter, and Varejao’s mid-range shot was not very good, and the Clippers could shrink to the penalty area to a greater extent.

In this way, the task of breaking through is handed over to Wade, and James has to wait on the outside to shoot three-pointers. If James breaks in, there is only one three-pointer outside, which has little effect.

Yang Rui did not make any substitutions, and arranged to fight with the Cavaliers on defense, leading 33-19 in the first quarter.

格里芬表现最好，单节12分4篮板2助攻，保罗有4分4助攻进账。

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers sent Douglas, Wade, Grant Hill, Martin, and Bosh.The two giants have substitutes.Even if James does not play, there is no need to worry about being taken away in a wave.

Yang Rui sent "bench bandits", Curry, Danny Green, Korver, Parsons, Griffin.

Griffin, who played the first quarter, came on again. This adjustment caught the Cavaliers by surprise, and the coaching staff did not expect it at all.

Yang Rui controlled Griffin’s playing time in previous games, averaging 33 minutes per game, and the Clippers had a lot of rotations. After the lead, Yang Rui would give Faried and Parsons some time to accumulate playoff experience. , training newcomers.

In the finals, Yang Rui no longer made any reservations and increased Griffin's playing time. Now he is desperately tired, and there are only 7 games left in this season.

Korver and Green are separated from the left side, Parsons plays the point forward with the ball in the middle, and Griffin on the side gives Curry a screen without the ball. This is a very simple tactic. What Parsons has to do is to play in the middle. Protect the basketball from being stolen by Martin, and pass the ball to Curry at the right moment.

Parsons is a rookie, and it is inevitable to be nervous in the competition. This can still be done well. Then he waits for the opportunity to catch the ball and shoot in the middle, and the task of the main attack is handed over to his teammates.

Martin and Bosh are both quick to switch defenses. Curry is a powerful three-pointer. The whole league knows that they dare not let him shoot.

After two seasons of experience, Curry has improved a lot. He has never been a pure pitcher, and his breakthrough ability is also very strong.He draws a defensive pass to Griffin who cuts, who immediately hits the rim.

Griffin first attacked the Tomahawk dunk, and the second attacked the Douglas Laman foul and sent him to the free throw line. Griffin made two free throws.

Soon, Griffin dislocated and got a singles chance, made two free throws for fouls, Adelman had to call a timeout again, Griffin's free throws would be difficult to handle.

Barkley of TNT Radio said: "Last season, the Clippers lost to the Mavericks, which is directly related to Griffin's free throw difference. He and Jordan are both on the free throw line that all Clippers fans don't want to see. This season Griffin was okay in the playoffs."

Smith said with a smile: "It's more than ok? Today he made 6 free throws. Judging from this state, Griffin is going to compete for the finals MVP. Paul is not as good as him today."

On the sidelines, Yang Rui did not take the tactical board and emphasized the offensive tactics again. "Stephen (Curry) relies on screens to catch the ball and shoot, or attract big men to defend and give the ball to Blake (Griffin). Blake makes a combination of sudden points and shots. If the perimeter is empty, the ball must be distributed in time, everyone pay attention. Shout to remind him of the vacancy."

What he arranged was star tactics, and it depended on two people, and the other three opened up and waited for opportunities.

Griffin has weaknesses, but under the right conditions, he can be a superstar.

This condition is that the opponent's inside players have insufficient strength and poor frame protection.

Griffin did not discuss the abuse of Bosh. In Yang Rui's previous life, the big men with strong impact and ability to storm the basket often cut super data on Bosh's head.

Griffin may not be the first power forward in the league, but his strength is much stronger than that of Vucevic and Hibbert, and his offensive ability is not inferior to Al Jefferson and Zach Randolph.

If the Cavaliers don't play Varejao and the fringe Turiaf, Bosh is the best big man to protect the rim.Martin's physical quality is very different from his peak. He is only 206cm tall. He relies on experience to defend, even if Martin's frame guard at the peak is average.

The game continued, Yang Rui still did not send Tony Allen, the best perimeter defender, and reused Danny Green.This arrangement has become an important turning point in the game.

Everyone knows that Green was only a backup for the Clippers' No. 2 position during the regular season, or even a marginal person. It is easy to stimulate Wade by letting him play at this time.In fact, Green is very good at defending the face frame and has a three-pointer ability that Tony Allen does not have.

Yang Rui is good at psychological warfare. If Green is not in good shape, he can play for a few minutes and change it, and it will not lead to a loss; if he is in good shape, he is a 3D player.

Wade really underestimated the enemy. He held the ball against Green in a row and shot with interference. Although he scored 4 points and made 4 of 2 shots with a 50% hit rate, the Clippers were not afraid.Because Wade is not so easy to break into the restricted area to attract double-teamed points, did not lead the team.

Green also played offensively, hitting two [-]-pointers.Wade felt that this was a substitute and was not a big threat, so he went to help defend Curry and Griffin and wanted to help his teammates.As a result, Green threw the ball, two hollow.

Yu Jia said: "I think Wade needs to reduce the help defense, keep an eye on Green, and would rather let people break through than give a three-point chance."

Zhang Lili said: "The problem is that if he doesn't help defend, the inside line may be smashed into a sieve. Griffin's data exploded today."

Adelman could only make substitutions to strengthen his defense. Yang Rui saw that Green was in good condition and did not make any substitutions. At 8 minutes and 22 seconds, he made another three-pointer in the transition from offense to defense.

Green enjoyed the ability of his teammates to pass the ball on the offensive end. The Cavaliers coaching staff was stunned. How could they think that a small person dominated the game in this quarter.
