If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 320 Back to Back to Back

Sefolosha's problem is not big, and it is relatively stable to rest for a few days.

But this buddy didn't want to rest and insisted on playing the next game.

He was also worried that the main position would be gone again, and Yi Jian could understand that.

However, when it comes to position, more often it depends on strength.

Just three days after the Trail Blazers were played, the game was still at home, and the coaching staff agreed to Sefolosha's request.

On November 1, the Rockets visited.

The current rocket is completely different from the original history, the main reason is that Yi Jian has too much wool.

Especially the back line, Lowry and Dragic are both in the Thunder.

The Rockets didn't do much in the summer, and they didn't plan to do badly if they couldn't sign anyone, but it's probably impossible to compete in the Western Conference only by relying on Martin, a quasi-All-Star.

Now the Rockets are still an internal and external combination of Martin and Scola, and their defense is not very good.

For the first position, go to the Timberwolves to find Jonny Flynn.

The Timberwolves chose Flynn if they didn't choose Curry. This buddy must have potential, but he couldn't make it out due to injuries. Now the Timberwolves want to train Rubio and send him away.

There is really no suspense in this game.

The Rockets couldn't defend well, nor could they attack. The Thunder established an absolute advantage in the first half, and in the second half it was training. Parsons got the chance and performed well.

It's just that Sefolosha insisted on playing, but his performance was not very good, and the head coach didn't let him play more.

Sefolosha is talented, but the offense has not been practiced, and it still does not meet the requirements of the Thunder.

In the second back-to-back game and continued to play the Rockets, the team forced Sefolosha to rest, and Green got the chance to start.

Green's performance is quite satisfactory, he has always been like this in the Thunder.

But he has indeed improved over the past few seasons, and his grasp of open three-pointers is much better than that of Sefolosha.

Yi Jian felt that if this continues, Sefolosha is likely to lose his main position in the Thunder for the second time.

Because of defense, Green also did a good job, and he was a little more aggressive.

Sefolosha's static talent is good, but his playing is still too elegant.

Back at home, the Rockets played a little better, but were still double-killed by the Thunder.

Even though the Thunder lost two players due to injuries, they are still much stronger than the Rockets.

That is to say, the Rockets' drafting ability is not very good, and they don't plan to train rookies with all their strength. Otherwise, they will train rookies and get a good pick in the coming year, which is actually very good.

However, the most outrageous thing about this season is that there are still back-to-back games, playing games for three consecutive days.

The two home courts are still not connected together, and everyone finds it very annoying.

Fortunately, their opponents, the Spurs, are at least back-to-back.

The Spurs are currently in the process of Ginobili being injured, and Leonard is temporarily on the bench.

But he is more reused now, although the Spurs are interested in his defense.

The Spurs are now starting with Jefferson. Parker and Duncan are more stable in other positions. They usually choose Blair as the inside partner with Duncan.

Logically speaking, Blair is not an insider that the Spurs like, but he has always been more important. As a result, the Spurs did not renew the contract directly after the rookie period. It can only be said that the Spurs are currently making some attempts during the transition period.

In the past few seasons, the Spurs have actually begun to favor offense.

It's just that the impression of the fans has not changed, thinking that the Spurs are still defensive.

At the second position, the Spurs are temporarily unoccupied, and they are also making various attempts. This time the starting lineup is Neal.

In order to save money, the Spurs often have little people reused.

If there is strength, the little guy really has a chance to play in the Spurs.

The Spurs' current style of play is more team-oriented.

Only rarely do they let the stars show their personal strength.

This style of play is enough for ordinary teams, but it still needs to have a strong point to stand out against strong teams.

After the start of the game, Yi Jian scored first, and then the whole team scored well.

The Thunder often bloom more, but to be honest, it's not a team style of play.

Role players are more of a pie, and most of them don't know how to hold and distribute the ball.

The data produced may be similar to the team-based offense of the Spurs, but the essence is completely different.

The Spurs couldn't play against Parker and Duncan at all today. Although Genier is a bit of a surprise player, it is not enough to face the strongest Thunder in the league.

The Thunder is still the strongest in the league without an All-Star, that's how domineering it is.

The point is, right now in the league, the Thunder are the only teams that truly have two peak superstars.

The Spurs' rotation lineup can actually play well. Leonard has performed well since he came up, and he doesn't look like a rough guy who doesn't attack at all.

However, Thunder performed better here.

The double guard combination of Dragic and Jeremy Lin actually played well.

In fact, it can also be seen that the Spurs' current defense has really weakened, especially after Duncan is off the court, the Thunder's two backup guards can take turns to attack them, and it is easier to get opportunities from the three-point line.

This is also the reason why the Spurs are not completely desperate. The Spurs team played very smart in the regular season, rarely confronting strong teams head-on, and the Thunder took the lead very smoothly.

By the end of the first half, Durant was at the free throw line and the Thunder's lead was in double digits.

Judging from the fighting spirit of the Spurs, it is difficult to see that they will be a strong team in the West. Their styles are completely different.

However, their players are indeed professional and calm under the guidance of head coach Popovich.

They will win the games that need to be won, so many times the regular season record is very good.

Especially now that they are taking the offensive route, the team has some role players who can score, and the players don't consume so much energy.

"The Spurs are still strong, but they are not our opponents." Returning to the locker room, Yi Jian concluded.

Leonard still needs to work on it, and he will play a bigger role at least next season, so the Spurs are still GDP this season, and the current GDP, the Thunder can limit it.

The Spurs were even more dissatisfied with the offense in the first half.

Head coach Popovich hopes that players can be more decisive in their shots. As long as they meet the tactical requirements, Popovich will encourage players to make shots.

However, there is still a gap in their strengths.

The gap was still a bit big. Soon after the third quarter, Yi Jian and Durant scored consecutively.

No one could keep up with the Spurs, and they fell behind by 20 points all of a sudden, and the rest of the game basically became garbage time.

No one thought of this, mainly because Parker was in a bad state today.

He is now the Spurs' first scoring point. He is not in good shape, and the Spurs will naturally not be able to attack.

As a result, the final quarter of this strong duel turned into training.

After the game, the team's head coach Brooks was also proud: "Our players completed the game very well. They did their best throughout the back-to-back trip. Fortunately, we won these three games."

[Leading the team to defeat the Spurs, a strong team in the West, rewards +1 for possession and +1 for layups. 】
