Chapter 838 [Under Mawei in the final, unlimited shot rights]

The finals were full of gimmicks. The media not only discussed the stars of the two sides, but even the bosses brought them out for comparison.

This year, Yang Rui bought the Clippers, surpassing Prokhorov of the Nets and Paul Allen of the Blazers, and became the richest boss in the NBA. In the playoffs, he even stole the limelight from other bosses. Because he is the only one who directs the team from the front line.

In addition to Yang Rui, the most concerned owner is Prokhorov of the Nets.

He is well-known as the fifth king of diamonds, one of the most famous and beautiful men in Russia.In addition, his dressing taste is also top-notch, whether it is an orthodox suit, casual wear or sportswear, he is just right.

In recent years, Prokhorov's life has not been smooth. He failed to run for president of Russia in 2012, and was completely suppressed by Yang Rui in the NBA. Not only did he lose to Yang Rui in terms of money, but also in terms of women and personal evaluation.

90% of people online think Yang Rui is more attractive, he is 9 years younger and more handsome than Prokhorov, he has no scandals except for three Hollywood star girlfriends, although he is not married, he is a good man who cares for his family. The guys who make YL parties are much stronger.

In terms of basketball career, the two are even more incomparable, one is the pope of basketball, and the other is just willing to spend money.

Before the game, Prokhorov personally boosted morale in an interview, saying that he had bought a large number of high-end champagne, and he would open the champagne to celebrate after winning the game.

As soon as the news came out, many Nets fans felt that Prokhorov was a bit overblown, and I was afraid they would be slapped in the face.Although the Clippers advanced to the finals a little harder than the Nets, it does not mean that they are weaker than the Nets.

The Nets players were dumbfounded when they learned the boss's way of boosting morale. The Clippers' lineup looked weaker than last season, but they didn't take advantage of it in the regular season.

Clippers players took two days off to relax and recover, and spent two more days training and preparing for the game. On June 6, the first game of the finals started at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

When it comes to choosing jerseys, the Clippers will not make the Nets comfortable. They chose the Chinese red jersey at home, which is a dark color. The Nets can only choose white jerseys to play, and cannot wear black lucky jerseys.

During the warm-up, Yang Rui and Yao Ming greeted each other a few times, and then went to the sidelines to wait for the start of the game. He did not emphasize the tactics any more. He said everything in the locker room. Today, the core of the Clippers' tactics in the first quarter is only two words. "speed up".

Clippers starting: Curry, Middleton, Gay, Faried, Griffin.

Nets starting: Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Jimmy Butler, Derek Favors, Yao Ming.

The Nets go first, and the game begins.The Clippers adopted a mixed defense, with Curry in charge of defending Deron and four others in zone defense.

The other players are either tall or strong. Curry certainly can't handle it, and Deron is also very strong, which is easier to deal with than the other players.

This Nets team is somewhat similar to the Jazz in Yang Rui's previous life. The overall confrontation ability is super strong, and the depth of the lineup is better than that of the Jazz that entered the Western Conference Finals.Of course, a player who is too strong is not necessarily a good thing, it will affect the speed.

Delong and Yao Ming played a pick-and-roll in the middle of the left, Faried quickly switched defenses in front of him, Curry bypassed the screen and chased, Delong passed the ball to the middle, Faried slipped to the middle, and blocked in a second In front of Yao Ming.

Yao Ming's weakness is mainly due to his lack of air cutting speed. After losing weight, he has no advantage in strength. He can't get to the basket to easily hook and score. Without Griffin's resistance, Yao Ming gave up after Faried was close to him. Dribble the ball inside and hold it high to find teammates.

The ball was passed to Joe Johnson on the right. The latter singled against Middleton and didn't change direction. He leaned his back and turned and failed to pass. Yang Rui's targeted arrangement played a role in the opening.

Middleton has the height and can fight, and it is suitable for the floor flow of Joe Johnson, who relies on technology and strength to play, and Danny Green may be forcibly pushed away.Joe Johnson didn't see the opportunity, and then passed out Delong's second organization on the outside.

Deron picks and rolls with Favors on the left, Griffin keeps a distance to prevent breakthroughs, Curry chases and defends against pinch attacks, Deron passes the ball to Favors at the horn, Faried comes forward to interfere, Favors hesitates No vote, passed to Yao Ming.

The Nets' coordination range is too small, and the speed of several Clippers players is very fast, so it is impossible to break the zone defense.Faried pounced on Yao Ming again, and he had time to interfere with the shot. Yao Ming's three-pointer from the middle missed, and the rebound was grabbed by Guy.

As soon as he landed, Guy immediately passed the ball, and Curry dribbled the ball on the right side. Just after halftime, he did something unexpected. He threw the ball high with both hands, hit the rebound and bounced back.

Faried, who was sprinting in a straight line, completely got rid of Yao Ming, took advantage of the trend and took the rebound ball, took a step and took off again, smashed the ball with both hands, and threw his legs and pigtails wildly. 2 to 0.

This wonderful cooperation ignited the arena, and all the fans stood up and cheered!
CCTV5 Zhang Lili shouted: "The first goal of the Clippers finals actually played this kind of cooperation. It is likely to be the best goal of the day. Curry really dares to play, he is very relaxed."

Yu Jia smiled and said: "The close-up shot was given to Yang Rui on the sidelines, and he was also applauding. He criticized Curry before and told him not to use fancy moves when passing the ball. I don't know how he feels now."

"I think it's good to have this kind of cooperation once or twice in a game. Curry probably learned from Nash, and his passing is very imaginative." Zhang Lili laughed.

This kind of ball scoring will boost morale. In the morning training, Curry, Faried, Griffin and other people who can run have deliberately practiced, rebounding and passing the ball, they don’t have to look back at their teammates frequently, they can run faster , it is no problem to get rid of Yao Ming.This kind of cooperation with the Clippers is only intended to play once, in order to give the opponent a dismay.

The Nets attacked, the Clippers blocked the penalty area, put Butler and Favors at a certain distance, Deron broke the ball, and Favors' near-open mid-range shot missed the basket.

Since Yao Ming has reduced the proportion of low-post offenses, Favors has more often ended offenses near the penalty area in the past two seasons, turned and hooked, and occasionally cut inside for dunks. He averaged 30 points, 13.3 rebounds and 8.7 assists in 1.2 minutes per game. 1 steals and 1.5 blocks.

The role of Favors on the defensive end is key. The offensive end has few jumpers. The most accurate mid laner is usually Yao Ming. This year, his mid-range shooting ability has declined a bit.

Yao Ming didn't dare to grab the offensive rebounds and went back to the defense directly. Faried easily won the backcourt rebounds.

Curry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, the teammates pulled away, Faried went to the left low post, Griffin gave Middleton no ball screen on the right, helped him run away from Joe Johnson, Curry took the ball to the meter Delton's direction faltered for a while and didn't pass, and the middle road suddenly faced Delong and made a three-point shot.

Curry's shot this time was all by surprise. The two were very close, and Deron reacted quickly enough to jump up and almost cover the basketball. Curry had already planned to do so. Hollow into the net. 5 to 0.

Most people have to hit the iron for this kind of ball, and Curry is so perverted. He glances at the basket and can shoot well by feeling.

The fans cheered in unison again, and Yang Rui stood up and applauded from the sidelines.

In the previous life, Curry missed the FMVP three times. Yang Rui believed that he had a good chance of winning in this series. If he fails, it is a question of strength.Yang Rui arranged for Curry to have unlimited shot rights, and the Nets' point guard defense ability is average. He should be able to beat Deron one-on-one.
