NBA’s aging star system

May 5th is a special day. Many couples will face quarrels, breakups, cuckoldry, etc. on this day.

It is also very special for Su Tian because it is the time of the third game of the Western Conference Finals.

The crowd at Oracle Arena was huge, and the atmosphere and atmosphere of this venue was even better than Staples.

The main reason is that Los Angeles is an entertainment city, and people are not that crazy about basketball.

The Warriors' starting lineup still starts with five players.

The Lakers' starting lineup is also a regular starting lineup.

Ball, Sutian, Ingram, Randle, Lopez.

Before the start of the game, many people predicted that the Lakers would also choose the starting lineup. However, they did not expect that the Lakers did not change the starting lineup. I don't know if it was because of other arrangements or because Walton was too rigid.

Soon the game started, Lopez took the lead to grab the jump ball, and the Lakers had the ball.

After Ball came to the frontcourt with the ball, he passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball, faced Clay, and started singles directly.

"Eh? Are you going to play singles directly at the beginning? Are the Lakers so direct in this game?" Barkley asked when he saw Su Tian playing singles at the beginning of the game.

After Su Tian continuously dribbled the ball, he quickly broke through Clay's defense and easily reached the mid-range to make a jump shot.

Swah——

Su Tian hit the target steadily.

2-0

Although Su Tian scored a shot, there was no expression of joy on his face. Instead, he frowned.

"The Warriors still haven't double-teamed. They didn't even have the tendency to double-team just now."

Su Tian had just observed very clearly that neither Durant nor Green had any intention of double-teaming. It seemed that the Warriors still adhered to the defensive strategy of the previous game.

In the next few rounds, Su Tian once again increased the proportion of personal offense in an attempt to attract the Warriors' defensive support, but the Warriors remained unmoved.

At the end of the first quarter, the score had reached 29-25, and the Lakers temporarily led by 4 points.

"This game is like a repeat of the last one. The Lakers still rely on Su's performance to temporarily lead the Warriors. I don't know if the final result will change." Kenny Smith said.

"I don't feel that the Lakers have made any adjustments. Walton's job is obviously substandard. The Lakers need a more professional head coach." Barkley complained immediately.

At this time, not only Barkley, but many Lakers fans blamed Walton for all this.

"That's right, what level is Wharton at? He was beaten so badly in the last game, but he still doesn't know how to change it. There are no changes at all, and Su is the only one to fight?"

"Wharton is still too young. He was an inconspicuous person as a player, and now he is still not very good as a coach."

"The Lakers really need to change their head coach. I think Steve Nash is good. He will definitely be better than Walton."

"Yes, Nash is a master of passing. Having Nash here will definitely be a plus for Su."

"Nowadays, anyone can really be a coach. It's very possible to field a lineup with five point guards at any time."

But at this time, Walton naturally didn't know the fans were criticizing him, because at this time, Walton was discussing with Su Tian how to deal with the Warriors.

"The Warriors still haven't changed their defensive strategy. They still let me play alone in the first three quarters, and then double-teamed me in the fourth quarter. Their main task in the first three quarters was to cut off the connection between me and my teammates," Su Tian said.

"It does seem like this. If so, then we can't sit still and wait for death, Su. In the first three quarters, we should find more teammates to cooperate and not fall into the Warriors' trap." Walton said seriously.

Su Tian nodded, agreeing with Wharton's statement.

In the first quarter, Su Tian came to test the Warriors' defensive strategy. If the Warriors still adhere to the strategy of the previous game, then Su Tian must find a way to connect with his teammates and cannot let himself fall into singles. .

At this time, the second quarter of the game had already started for two minutes. Su Tian did not play for the time being, but rested off the court.

For the Lakers, Ingram and Randle are jointly leading the team, while for the Warriors, Green and Clay are leading the bench.

Halfway through the second quarter, the Warriors were beginning to overtake the Lakers, and Su Tian came on the court again.

After Su Tian came on the court again, he was pushed to the third position, and Iguodala also came on the court for the Warriors.

Su Tian looked back at Cole on the sidelines. Cole folded his arms and looked at the game calmly.

After Su Tian came on the court, he advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. As expected, Iguodala defended him in front of him. At the same time, other members of the Warriors were also trying hard to defend themselves, and their bodies kept blocking Su Tian's passing route. superior.

Su Tian scanned his eyes and called Nance to step forward to block.

With the help of the pick-and-roll, Su Tian directly broke through. The Warriors quickly changed defense, and Rooney switched in front of Su Tian.

Rooney's defense was still very immature at this time. Su Tian accelerated and broke through directly, and succeeded in an easy layup.

At this time, Cole frowned on the sidelines.

"Although I specifically asked Su Tian to play in singles, this fight was too easy."

Cole is not very satisfied with Rooney's defense, but there is no way, the Warriors are already very lacking inside.

The ball changed, and it was the Warriors' turn to attack. Livingston advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. After a period of tactical movement, Clay ran into an open opportunity, and Livingston immediately passed the ball to him.

But as soon as Livingston fired the ball, it was stopped by Su Tian.

Su Tian successfully intercepted!

After grabbing the ball, Su Tian immediately started the fast break and took the ball straight to the front basket.

Quickly reaching the basket, Su Tian scored directly for a layup.

In these two rounds, it seemed that there was no difference between Su Tian's scoring, but Cole could see clearly that there was no difference at all!

The reason why the Warriors let Su Tian play in singles is because it consumes a lot of Su Tian's physical strength and prevents Su Tian from breaking out in the fourth quarter, so that the Warriors can win the game steadily.

But the goals in these two rounds were too easy and did not consume much of Su Tian's energy.

So Cole was very dissatisfied at this time, but after thinking about it, it might be a coincidence, so he decided to watch another round.

The Warriors continued to organize the offense. This time Livingston found an opportunity to break through with the ball, so he quickly rushed to the basket. Before Nance's help came up, Livingston made a throw.

Bang——shua——

The basketball bounced off the backboard and into the net, and the Warriors managed to recover two points.

The ball possession changes again and the Lakers attack.

Hart advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. Just when everyone thought Hart was going to pass the ball to Su Tian, ​​Hart called Nance for a pick-and-roll.

With the help of Nance's pick-and-roll, Hart directly broke through with the ball and rushed to the basket.

Su Tian couldn't double-team, but the others had no problem, so Green directly let go of Kuzma and returned to defend the basket in time.

Just when Green was about to give Hart a big block, Hart suddenly passed the ball to Su Tian, ​​who was cutting through the air.
