NBA Big Devil: I rule the league with defense

As for Han Mo, that is a monster!

The reason why Popovich couldn't come up with an effective strategy to defeat the 76ers was all because of Han Mo!

If Han Mo is still the same as Han Mo two years ago, then, although the young people in the 76ers have achieved leapfrog growth, Popovich is still confident that his team can sweep the Philadelphia 4ers 1:76 !

But Han Mo is not the same as he was two years ago!

In the finals two years ago, the Spurs could completely empty Han Mo on the outside!

As long as there is Duncan or other real and strong insiders guarding the penalty area, even if Han Mo rushes in, he will only return in vain!

If it really doesn't work, sending Han Mo to the free throw line is also a good idea!

But in this season, none of these tricks can be used!

Because Han Mo made 39% of his three-pointers in the regular season and 43% of his three-pointers in the playoffs!

The free throw percentage is as high as 88%!

At this level, who would dare to let Han Mo go?

Now the outside line of the 76ers, what Popovich most wants to empty is Andre Miller, who has 55% of the mid-range!

As for breaking into the paint, what strength does O'Neal have in this year's Eastern Conference Finals?

Isn't that still blocked by Han Mo?

No matter how powerful Tim Duncan is, how does he compare with O'Neal?

How does Rasu Nesterovic's weight compare to Shaquille O'Neal's weight?

Popovich can accept that Han Mo can easily lock up Tony Parker or Manu Ginobili at will!

But Popovich couldn't accept that Han Mo could shoot the Spurs alive from the outside while locking up one of them!

"Wait?" Popovich had a flash of inspiration, "Although Han Moqiang is strong enough, is it really so incomprehensible?"

"I don't see it yet?"

In the last matchup in the finals, Popovich double-teamed Allen Iverson by emptying Han Mo, forcing Iverson to make difficult shots. The effect was good!

This year, Han Mo already has such a projection ability, if he tries to follow the method of two years ago, he will definitely be blown away!

But the 76ers' current lineup is not without weaknesses!

Andre Miller has no three-point ability at all, and Allen Iverson's three-point shooting percentage is only in his early 3s!

The Philadelphia 76ers' starters who can really shoot three-pointers are Han Mo at the third position on the front line and Wang Zhizhi at the fourth position!

If the starting guard can't shoot three-pointers, then the defense can do more!

June 2005, 6, Philadelphia 9ers at the Wachovia Center!

The 2004-2005 finals officially started! !

Pre-game online voting predicted that the proportion of votes for the 76ers to win was as high as 78%!

This prediction is simply outrageous. If you look through all the sweeping rounds in the history of the finals, there is no matchup with such an outrageous ratio before even a match is played!

A generation of newcomers replace the old ones. This ratio makes the Spurs a bit embarrassing as a veteran team. Compared with the Philadelphia 76ers, the Spurs' current team is more mature!

29-year-old Duncan, 28-year-old Manu Ginobili, 23-year-old Tony Parker, this is the time when GDP is at its peak, why are they not favored?

All the generals of the Spurs are holding back their energy!

Especially seeing Han Mo sitting on the billboard chatting and laughing with the beauties on the sidelines, he was even angrier!

"Hey, it's the finals, why don't you respect us?"

Han Mo looked at the generals of the Spurs and thought, "I already respect you very much. After all, I don't intend to trigger me to acquire new skills by angering Duncan at all!"

"In the regular season and the first few rounds of the playoffs, it's okay to play like this. As for the finals, I just want to get one more championship ring, that's enough!"

……

Starting players from both teams:

San Antonio Spurs: PG: Tony Parker, SG: Manu Ginobili, SF: Hedo Turkoglu, PF: Nazr Mohammed, C: Tim Duncan.

Philadelphia 76ers: PG: Andre Miller, SG: Allen Iverson, SF: Han Mo, PF: Wang Zhizhi, C: Yao Ming.

With the announcement of the starting lineup, there was an uproar!

"Why is Duncan playing the starting center? Is the Slovenian Pyrenees injured? No, isn't this a good way to sit on the court?"

"Duncan is the most powerful forward. Wouldn't it be self-defeating to play center?"

"The opponent is Yao Ming who is 2 meters 26. It is not worthwhile for Duncan to live with such a low-level monster!"

Yu Jia was the first to ask in the Huaxia live broadcast room: "Teacher Yang Yi, what do you think of the Spurs' evolution!"

Yang Yi frowned: "Popovich's move shows that he thinks the same as these experts. He also feels that this time the Spurs will play against the 76ers again. The team has become the 76ers. The game has not yet officially started, and Popovich has already felt that the starting lineup of the previous rounds has to be changed!"

"What are the technical characteristics of Rasu Nesterovic, the original starting center of the Spurs? He is tall, strong, and good at fighting inside, but he has no ability to defend outside, and he has almost no shooting ability. Limited! The Spurs want him, they want his body, he can carry the big center, and share the pressure of hand-to-hand combat for Tim Duncan!"

"It stands to reason that Popovich raised Rasu Nesterovic to deal with a big center like Yao Ming, so no matter what, he shouldn't start at this moment! But let's think about it. NBA head coaches, especially champion coaches like Popovich, can't be self-righteous when they line up, but should reverse the rationality of the team's arrangement according to his current lineup!"

"Then all I can think of is because of Wang Zhizhi!"

"Oh?" Yu Jia didn't expect this answer, "How do you say that?"

"Look!" Yang Yi talked happily: "The opponents the Spurs encountered in the previous rounds were all offensive and defensive! Let Duncan guard the defensive and reduce the defense. Let the big white bear Rasu Nesterovich defend the one who can attack! But the 76ers, you can't play this way!"

"Because both of the 76ers can attack! Yao Ming can attack inside and shoot from mid-range! Wang Zhizhi can also attack inside, and not only from mid-range, but also can shoot three-pointers! Rasu Nesterovic It’s okay to beat Yao Ming inside, but if Yao Ming chooses to call him out, can he follow him? Even if he can follow up, is there anyone inside the Spurs?”

Yu Jia was puzzled: "Isn't there still Tim Duncan?"

Yang Yi smiled and said, "Duncan? Duncan must be on the three-point line with Wang Zhizhi. The distance from the three-point line to the inside line is so far away. If you don't grow wings, you will definitely not be able to return to defense! The 76ers can't go back. A bunch of assault masters, among other things, Allen Iverson's contemporary breakthrough master, you dare to empty the basket? How is that different from waiting to die?"
