Chapter 114 Game6 (3: Lifeline, Epic Panacea)

A lifeline for the Philadelphia 76ers?
Answer D: Jan's stamina bar.After all, the foul pressure brought by top defense inside, frame protection and rebound protection is his Daxmos sword, and the team's offense and connection are also counting on him, so his existence is the most important,
Answer C: The connection between Young and the others. If Young can lead role players to wildfire, then Philly's offense will be very difficult to stop.

If Philadelphia's opponents can hold down Philly's role players, then Philadelphia's win or loss will rest on Young's shoulders alone.

Answer B: Production. Philadelphia needs someone to help digest Young's remaining production after eating 40%. Even if it can't reach the 56% true shooting rate of the first-class, it can't swing around the failing range of 50%.

Answer A: The conversion cost from the first serve to the second serve. When Yang is used as a support point, strategic seduction, and pinning point, the ball must not be in his hands

In a situation where tactics are easy to kill, Philadelphia has to pay the cost to hand the ball to Young,
Convert an offensive first serve into a second serve
Start face-to-face singles or post-up singles

In short, in a word, Yang can be a first-shot mage who makes troubles everywhere, or a strict second-shot battle berserker,

But the work of first serve and second serve cannot be done together

After all, there is not enough good space support, Yang wants to ensure that he needs to grasp the semi-fast break, chaotic three-pointers and ultra-long-range three-pointers with the ball.

…………

…………

For example, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Cavaliers, which had been unfavorable to Young's defense, overturned all their defensive strategies.

Yes, you read that right, in this autumn of life and death, the Cavaliers gave up all previous defensive plans
Rearrange your defensive strategy.

Facing a 76ers rotation without McConnell

They put Shumpert, who was fresh off the bench, to start leading Young, who played [-] minutes, from the backcourt.
Immediately after
Disregard
Ignoring Hollis Thompson who replaced Moore for rotation time
Ignore Alfonso McKinney, who replaced Covington with a bad three-pointer

Disregard the first two if there are still extenuating circumstances

but

Ignoring Jerami Grant, who scored 9 points, 7 rebounds and 4.8 assists in the regular season, and Jamyale Green, who made 36% of the three-pointers in the playoffs.

It proves that Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue is very courageous.

What the withdrawn defensive force does:
Stacked defense + pincer attack
Because there is no finishing center around Young who can finish efficiently (Jai Michael Green is undersized and the effect of attacking the frame is not good)

There is also no player on the weak side who can single out and attack the basket.

"What kind of operation is this!" Seeing the operation of four knights chasing one person, the audience at the Wells Fargo Center was a little confused.

"Yeah, we don't understand either."

This series of operations is not common in the NBA, but it is very common in colleges and high schools. His name is:
Box—one
…………

…………

In the case of a large number of pincers forcing Young to give up the ball
Young, who came to the second offensive round, could only continue to fulfill the wish of the Cavaliers: quickly hand over the ball in his hand.

After being led by the Cavaliers out of the routine first step, Young made a change in the flexible second link:
He signaled his teammates to prepare for false screens at any time with his eyes, and then began to run without the ball.

The general off-ball mistake is to mark the ball and not the man, but the mistake made by the Cavaliers here is to mark the man and not the ball.

Although Young used his own influence to seduce part of the Cavaliers' defense from the penalty area.But there is no way to attack the frame inside, and there is no stable outside shot
Let Philadelphia's offense get stuck directly.

"Itowan,..."

After two rounds of observation, Brett Brown called E'Twaun Moore to his side.

Without a good shooter reserve, the 76ers must stretch Ettovan Moore's playing time.

Then it's time to wait for the right time for a replacement.
From 24:29 to 36:32, when McConnell, Moore and Covington returned to the court again,

The situation on the court has undergone fundamental changes, from the original preference for the Philadelphia 76ers to the preference for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

"Here we are, it's up to us next." As soon as he played, McConnell gave Young a signal to trust his teammates.

Why give this signal, the reason is very simple

The Cavaliers adopted an unconditional flanking strategy against Young, so Young didn't get a single shot in the first few minutes of the second quarter.

only

With the basic version of shooter, setter, ball handler and screener
Young's ballless soil completes the most basic composition.

Next is decoy or lethal weapon

Cleveland's defense calls for a judgment call.

…………

…………

Because it was a dead ball, the opponent had already completed the arrangement of the defensive formation, so McConnell did not bring the rhythm too fast

As the heaviest part of the 76ers' tactics
Young, who was in the bottom corner, started running without the ball
Because it is inconvenient to attack without the ball, the Cavaliers' defensive attention began to concentrate

5 seconds, first chance, fail
9 seconds, second fail, fail
In 13 seconds, the defensive attention of the Cavaliers finally had a problem after 13 seconds

Faced with Young's outer cut, two people chased him out

The four corners showed a flaw in one corner, and McConnell chose to pass the ball decisively because of the opportunity.

"bang"

Because of the fear of shooting three-pointers with the ball and three-pointers around screens, the Cavaliers who dare not use Mozgov are not good in air defense, or even a bit bad.

Because of Irving's absence, James must face a situation

break Young's defense
if not broken

The lead your team got in the second quarter on a semi-fast break will be wiped out

The physical strength saved by "Di" in the first place was rewarded, and the referee blew Yang's defensive foul

But it is a pity that the referee only gave the floor foul.

"..." JR Smith, who has been appearing on complaining occasions, turned on the complaining mode again

Only, this time James patted him on the shoulder.

Following the boss's signal, JR Smith left the referee's range, but no one saw the green light in his eyes,
"Bang...Bang...Bang, JR Smith made the second three-pointer of the game against Moore's defense"

"Beautiful fake screen cut in, 76ers let the Cavaliers defense make mistakes again,"

"Unbelievable, JR Smith completed a three-pointer from the center line against Covington's defense."

"This time it was a three-pointer at the top of the arc with a false screen cut. The 76ers once again played with the Cavaliers' defense."

"The Cavaliers can try a small lineup of Irving, JR Smith, Shumpert, James, and Tristan Thompson. After all, Love's performance in this round of the series..." Jeff Van Gundy made a very bold proposal.

"It's a pity that Richard Jefferson retired with a serious injury in the preseason, otherwise he is more suitable to stay in this lineup than Shumpert."

　Because I can't let the Cleveland Cavaliers break out of the East.

　　plus i really dislike richard jefferson
　　So serious injury + retirement is his only ending
　　So the next chapter will account for someone else: Duntay Jones

　　The next chapter ends the season
