If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 136

Nuggets coach George Karl said physical collisions and seductive defense are the foundation of the Nuggets now.

But in fact, everyone knows that the Nuggets' defense is very average.

But George Karl's words are not wrong. As the head coach of the Nuggets, he must protect their interests. He knows that the Thunder is not an easy opponent to deal with.

Billups also said, "Sometimes they may find a gap in our defense, but this gap will be closed quickly because we have a group of players with outstanding athletic ability."

Durant said with some displeasure after the game: "We know that the Nuggets are such an active team. If this is the intensity of the game in the second round of the playoffs, we must adapt and be more active than our opponents." .”

Yi Jian was relatively calm after the loss. He said: "It's nothing. They played very tough. They have too many players with excellent physical conditions... We will give a response."

"I will take the responsibility for the loss, and then strengthen my offensiveness. I will use a tougher attitude to attack the opponent's defense."

"The whole team knows that the series is a war. We come here to play, of course we will not give up easily. You may be able to beat us in the end, but you have to pay for it. This is what we have been doing all season. pursued."

After the game, some experts jumped out, thinking that the Thunder had come to an end.

They feel that the aging Spurs have given the Thunder too much fantasy, and the cruelty of the playoffs cannot be controlled by young people who have not experienced enough tempering.

And it shows that they are not mature enough in their hearts, and the series will not go far.

Yi Jian snorted, the playoffs were made, not blown away.

Those guys who rub off on traffic can only say sensational things.

Yi Jian communicated with the coaching staff, and he will stay on the court more in subsequent games.

Since the substitute lineup is not that strong, try to keep the main players on the court.

On May 5, in the second game of the playoffs between the Thunder and the Nuggets, the battle ignited again at the Nuggets' home court.

"Give me the ball and I'll fix everything."

Before playing, Yi Jian uttered bold words. When teammates feel confused, they just need to find a way to pass the ball to him.

After the match started, Yi Jian was also extremely strong.

The Thunder are leading again, and in the main battle, they will definitely not be afraid of the Nuggets.

Anthony's attack power is at most similar to Durant's, not as good as Yi Jian's.

The Thunder's defense is also very good. Why can the Nuggets win?
The rhythm and experience are better than gold nuggets, so no matter how much Yi Jian is, just use strength to break through the tricks.

Not long after coming up, Yi Jian made Martin commit two crimes.

The Nuggets also quickly replaced Anderson, and then replaced JR.

Nuggets head coach George Karl also wiped the sweat from his forehead. After winning the first game, they are still a little too optimistic. It is really too difficult to limit Yi Jian.

They have to go all out and continue to win the home game.

After killing Martin, the main defense player for Yi Jian became Nene.

The Nuggets don't have players at Duncan's level inside, but they can play a little more.

The Nuggets are also a team with more players who can play, so they should not be underestimated.

"The effect of changing the defense is the same." Yi Jian said with a smile.

"However, it's fine if you come to defend. You don't dare to foul if you have poor defense. Everyone just pretends to be."

Only when the opponent is a little stronger can you talk trash, otherwise it will be boring.

Nene's temper is not good either, she swears directly, and Yi Jian can't understand some obscene words.

In fact, the tempers of the Nuggets players are not very good, but some people will get started directly, and some people generally can't get started.

Yi Jian would not fight with the other party, that would be a disadvantage.

His trash talk is still somewhat artistic, not straight fark.

After the Nuggets replaced JR, the offensive end was much stronger. JR is a nerve knife. It's good that this game is strong.

With the score on the field, the Thunder suddenly felt a little unstable.

The Nuggets' physical confrontation at home is a bit heavy, and some young people in the Thunder are still not used to it.

Yi Jian's response was to fight on top.

He just went down to take a break and drink, and then came up immediately, and scored when he came up.

The Nuggets' defense is not that good, so they didn't flank at the beginning, because flanking can easily lead to overall defensive chaos.

Their strategy was successful in the first game. In the crucial fourth quarter, they did not give Yi Jian many chances, and finally succeeded in winning.

This time they wanted to follow suit, but Yi Jian made it difficult for them to defend in the first half.

Yi Jian has also figured it out. They have reached the second round of the playoffs. They can be said to be very successful this season.

In this case, the Nuggets also increased Anthony's playing time, but Anthony's offensive efficiency is not as good as Yi Jian.

Nuggets coach George Karl is also considering whether to attack in advance.

It's just that he really doesn't have that much grasp of defense.

So in thinking, the first half ended slowly.

At the last moment, Durant hit a three-pointer and the Thunder took the lead again.

After entering the intermission, Yi Jian also admitted that the Nuggets in the playoffs are indeed a bit more difficult to deal with than in the regular season.

However, they still have a chance to win.

"Prevent their outside shots and let them rush in to find me." Yi Jian said confidently.

He scored 20 points in the first half and gave his teammates a lot of confidence.

On the Nuggets side, the coaching staff also discussed.

They still decided not to flank for the time being, and wait until the final quarter to see the situation.

Now that the scores of the two teams are about the same, they will have to fight more aggressively, consuming the physical strength and confidence of the Thunder players.

As long as the final quarter is like the first game, they will basically be stable throughout the series.

Young people are very excited, but with fear in their hearts, it will be difficult to display their strength.

So what about Yi Jianqiang?The entire Thunder team is still too immature, including the head coach.

"We have to incorporate the game into our offensive rhythm," George Karl said.

"We want to use this game to completely defeat each other."

In the Thunder locker room, Brooks is also encouraging the players.

"You play better than the other side. As long as we keep our pace and continue, the game will not let us down."

"We will win, trust me." Yi Jian also spoke again.

The Thunder players got together and cheered again, they were fearless.

In the third quarter, Martin took the initiative to come over for an off-ball confrontation.

Because of the foul problem, he didn't play much time and was full of energy.

Moreover, the trash talk has also started spraying.

This is a small strategy of the Nuggets. Since Yi Jian likes to slander, the Nuggets players will take turns to slander him to see if Yi Jian is affected.

Yi Jian said that this is all trivial.

After 2 minutes, Martin fouled again.
