Legend Raiders

Chapter 1417
anxiety!

Just after the first quarter of the game, the Warriors had such a mood.

To know.

The Warriors only lost four points in the first quarter, which shows how much pressure the Celtics put on them!
But the most important thing now is how to use people in the second quarter, which is very important for their entire game.

It is no exaggeration to say that if there is a problem with their substitution strategy, they will be completely reduced to the background of the Celtics in the entire second half!

That being the case.

Steve Kerr also knew that now was not the time to struggle. After making a decision, he immediately made arrangements.

Curry and Iguodala stayed on the court, paired with a Harrison Barnes, and then the other two came off the bench.

What they need most now is defense!

The center was directly replaced by an alternative defensive stalwart, Anderson Varejao, who is known as the Brazilian actor, and the power forward was Maris Speights.

Relatively speaking.

Speights' defense is definitely not as strong as Green's, but there is no way to do it now, and it can be regarded as a disguised choice to let go of Qin Tao.

After all, with Ezeri's moving speed, his defense is better, but his disadvantages are also very obvious.

It's better to let Speights play a fight, maybe his sight can give the team some help.

But they have the final arrangement of personnel, and the Celtics are not so stubborn.
They directly took Qin Tao and Durant, as well as Jokic, and let Jack Crowder, David West, and Amir Johnson play for a while.

This lineup tends to be defensive, but the offensive point is definitely Isiah Thomas.

His defense may not be good, but his offense does have two brushes!

With their lineup, although the lead may not be able to expand, but speaking of defense, they can still limit the Warriors one or two.

The second stanza begins.

Sit down.

Qin Tao and Durant got together to analyze the direction of the game.

Relatively speaking.

They are almost [-]% sure that they will win the victory, but they are afraid that the Warriors will suddenly explode like they did during the thunder.

As for whether other substitute teammates can complete the task, this is not within their consideration.

If their defense-oriented lineup can't stop the Warriors, then they deserve to be beaten back by the Warriors.

But just as Qin Tao and the two continued to communicate, what happened on the court lifted their spirits!

The substitute brothers played too aggressively!

Including the defensive champion Amir Johnson, they all started attacking with the ball!

And what Qin Tao and the others didn't expect at all was that when facing Anderson Varejao, the statuette winner, Amir Johnson not only didn't have any caution, but instead played quite tough with his back when attacking with the ball.

The last one turned around and made a small hook, and won the ball beautifully!
incredible.

Qin Tao and Durant immediately stood up and cheered for this old man.

This ball was played too clearly, and it was played too resolutely!
Could it be that these guys had some kind of bet in private?
Why else would even Amir Johnson start playing offense?
Unfortunately not.

This ball was the result of Johnson's whim, and if he were to play it again, the effect might not be so good.

It is also Anderson Varejao who has been out of battle for a long time, and his performances have become a little rusty.

If you give him a chance to perform, he can become very intimidating!
Easy to fight again.

The performance of the Warriors also surprised Qin Tao and the others.

Especially Curry.

The rest of the Warriors seemed to be stunned. In addition to making the ball for Curry, the other is to do their defensive work well.

The feeling of playing flowers for Bao Curry's tactical coordination is really completely unimaginable.

Curry is also very energetic.

With the help of his teammates, his first shot in this quarter was a three-pointer!
His confident appearance seemed to tell his teammates and the Celtics that he, Ku Hao, was finally back!

This silent declaration is really awesome.

In the next 3 minutes, Curry alone scored nine points!

All of his hits were three-pointers, which directly reversed the disadvantage and took the lead for the team.

time out.

Stevens is not used to his own players.

Since they can't play well, let the timeout adjust.

If they still can't get back on the court, Stevens will definitely let him be benched.

In the case of Qin Tao and Durant, they are fully capable of playing the second half.

And with them, anyone can match them.

Back off the field.

Stevens was the first to address their biggest problem.

Curry is able to play in form and feel, except for other teammates who are really strong, there is another thing that the Celtics' defense is a bit out of touch.

Especially for Isiah Thomas, he played very anxiously, as long as he had the ball in his hand, he would immediately think of attacking.

honestly.

Everyone can understand this approach. After all, without Qin Tao and Durant, he needs to immediately establish his identity as the core of the second team.

Without him!

As long as he plays a very ideal side in such a crucial game, as long as Qin Tao and Qin Tao are not in the lineup, he is the absolute core!

This is also due to his sense of crisis.

Because he has already smelled some signs, the team may let Jokic dominate the second team.

in this way.

When he is playing, especially when defending, his own ability is not good, and he still plays such a skill, which directly causes the team to be out of touch.

Stevens even scolded him a few words while talking.

Isiah Thomas blushed in embarrassment, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and get in.

Honestly.

If it weren't for Qin Tao and Durant sitting in charge, he wouldn't be used to Stevens, a young coach.

But now he is not in the wheel of history, so he has to listen to whatever Stevens scolds.

in this way.

Seeing that the guy's attitude was okay, Stevens asked another question.

Speaking of which, their lineup is very good defensively, but the communication between players is very little.

If the defense is the main focus, personal ability is important, but without an absolute core, they must communicate.

Especially when the Warriors are playing for Curry, the first thing to do to limit his movement speed is to communicate.

In the end, it's their support for their teammates.

If a teammate has a chance during the offense, then others must play for him as soon as possible.

Especially Isiah Thomas.

If he wants to perform better, he must at least communicate with his teammates.

If he can pay more attention to his teammates, even if he is a little lonely, others will help him as soon as possible.

After listening to Stevens' advice, almost everyone has benefited a lot.

It’s still the same old saying, it’s important to win the stars, but basketball belongs to five people after all!
