Chapter 8 8. The Paradoxical Popovich
Chapter 8 8. The Paradoxical Popovich
Popovich will never allow his team to have such an attitudeless defense.
Angrily called a long timeout, Popovich gathered all the players and began to lecture!
"Listen, you can't let that guy have such an easy three-point shot, he's very accurate tonight, you have to block his shot!"
"If this goes on like this, that guy can kill us completely by himself!"
Popovich is a bit depressed, he doesn't care about the outcome of this game at all, otherwise he would not choose to rest the team's main players.
He just wants to deliberately release the water through the rotation and send the Lakers to win the game.
But it was different now. He couldn't accept the current situation. His team was beaten too badly, and Tang De's three-pointer was too shocking.
He even felt that choosing to play the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs was a mistake!
Who knows what Tang De will feel like after the playoffs?
So Popovich is not willing to lose this game easily, he wants to win, relying on the team's current lineup to win!
This is Popovich, he is always so unexpected, it can even be said to be inexplicable, no one can figure out what he is thinking.
In some respects, Tang De's sudden performance made Popovich a little contradictory.
He had to make two preparations to deal with the uncertain factor of Tang De.
But now he just wants to win this game, and it doesn't matter who he faces in the first round of the playoffs.
"Listen Kawhi, next you have to block Don's shot, I don't care what method you use, even if it's a foul, you have to guard him!"
Feeling the coach's tough attitude, Leonard nodded heavily like a robot.
The game came back, and the Spurs dropped the pace of the game, which was also Popovich's arrangement.
Playing slowly, slowly exhausting the Lakers through positional battles, getting two points from Howard's basket is better than getting a three-pointer from the outside by Tang De.
Neal hit the ground and passed the ball to Splitter, who was in the position under the basket, and Howard raised his hands in front of him.
Howard doesn't think Splitter can win in singles!
It's a pity that this is just what he thought, and Howard succeeded in splitting the basket.
Although Splitter's ball was a bit bumpy, it doesn't matter, as long as the ball can be scored, it is enough.
Howard spread his hands helplessly, and looked at his teammates on the field apologetically.
Throughout the second quarter, under Popovich's arrangement, the Spurs played steadily!
Tang De was restrained by heavy troops on the outside, while Split and Dior were bombarded on the inside in turn.
Under Leonard's completely unreasonable and tough defense, Tang De only hit a mid-range shot and made 3 of 0 three-pointers!
At the end of the second quarter, the score was close to 42:50 by the Spurs!
"Don, it's obvious that you were targeted by those guys, and their defense against you has obviously increased!"
During the intermission, Howard said to Tang De with a playful smile.
Tang De was very clear about the meaning of Howard's words. It was nothing more than Howard wanted more possession of the ball, and told Tang De from the side to stop shooting from the outside and pass the ball to him.
"You're right man, they did increase the intensity of their defense against me, but so what, I'll still shoot when I get the chance!"
Just kidding, Tang De's goal tonight is to score crazy points, how could he give up because of Howard's words!
Howard: ... (eight hundred words are omitted here!)
Howard meant to prevent Tang De from continuing to throw from the outside, but D'Antoni was just the opposite.
"Don, you shouldn't take shots because of their defensive changes. I believe you can! You must take at least 8 more three-pointers in the second half!"
D'Antoni is excited!
Tang De's performance today was so good that he broke his career scoring record in just half the game.
In the half game, Tang De made 6 three-pointers and a mid-range shot, scoring 20 points!
You must know that before this, the highest score of Tang De's career was only 18 points!
In addition to Tang De, Howard also performed very well, scoring a quasi double-double with 16 points and 9 rebounds in the half game.
At the moment, in the Penguin Sports live broadcast room, all the topics are discussing Tang De.
"Obviously Tang De played very well in the first half today. I don't know how Tang De will perform when the Spurs continue to increase their defensive strength in the second half of the game!"
Wang Meng said excitedly.
"Then our next question in the second half is, how many three-pointers can Tang De make in the second half? Fans and friends are welcome to actively speak!"
"Look at Shaq, I don't think Don't make any more [-]s as long as the Spurs are on the defensive!"
Barkley finally overwhelmed O'Neal in terms of confidence.
Now not only Barkley, but even the other two commentators believed that the reason why Tang De went so smoothly in the first quarter was entirely because he faced too loose a defense!
As long as O'Neill firmly believes that Tang De is capable!
O'Neill is so confident in Tang De!
ESPN's halftime question remains: How many more threes can Don De make in the second half?
This is the same with Penguin Sports.
The intermission ended soon, and the second half began. The two sides changed sides to fight again, and Tang De still stayed on the court.
"Listen Tang, keep shooting!"
Before Tang De played, D'Antoni was still urging him.
"Old man, why don't you go to sleep with Sanfen in your arms!"
Tang De laughed in his heart, this old man is really crazy about three-pointers to a certain extent.
The current league has not yet transitioned to a "three-point league". This old man is like this. Tang De really dare not think, in the future, will D'Antoni allow the team to take more than fifty three-pointers per game on average!
The game is back, the Spurs attack!
Mills replaced Neal and became the starter in the second half!
Mills is much more stable than Neal. He is a player who obeys Popovich.
Mills has always been on the court in strict accordance with the coach's tactical arrangements, and he hardly messes around.
Popovich loves players like this the most.
The Spurs system has always been: No matter how capable you are, you'd better not engage in heroism, and team basketball is what you have to learn most.
So the Spurs have rarely been the scoring champion over the years.
Mills pushed forward with the ball. He didn't stick to the ball in the slightest, and passed the ball to Leonard after halftime.
The person in charge of defending Leonard is Tang De!
It is said that Leonard's defense is strong, but Tang De's defense is not blocked.
Tang De has a strong body, and the upper and lower limbs are well coordinated, and there are no problems such as instability of the lower body.
And the most important thing is that Tang De's lateral movement speed is very fast, so his supplementary defense is very good.
He can also quickly switch defenses with his teammates.
These defensive skills are the capital for him to gain a foothold in the NBA.
Everyone knows that even if your contribution on the offensive end is almost zero, as long as you defend hard enough and strong enough, you are very likely to gain a foothold in the NBA!
Leonard had already been shot two three-pointers on his head by Tang De tonight, so when Leonard received the ball, he directly chose to single-play Tang De.
No matter how facial paralyzed, he is also a person with a temper, okay?
Leonard made a mistake on the defensive end, and he has to make it up on the offensive end!
