NBA’s aging star system

Chapter 292 Going off the beaten path? Lake Yong Clash! (page 12)

Su Tian looked at Magic Johnson in front of him with a puzzled look. Su Tian naturally knew that the current Lakers were no match for the Warriors.

But looking at Johnson, it seemed like he had some good ideas.

"Erwin, stop being so pretentious and tell me."

"Haha, okay," Johnson immediately changed his serious expression and said, "Su, we have exchanged passing skills before. You learned quickly, so I think you should be able to understand what I mean."

"Your passing was very good before, but it was too safe. If the team is strong, there is no problem with being safe. We can wear down the opponent bit by bit, but now we are at a disadvantage, so we must grasp it." Take advantage of those opportunities that are not very safe!”

"I watched your first three games carefully. Your advantages are exactly your current shortcomings. You are too safe, causing your passing to lose its confusion and imagination. If you can imagine those of your passing ability, If you try to dig them out so that the Warriors can't find your passing route at all, then our chances of winning will be greatly increased!"

Su Tian did not speak after listening, but began to think deeply about Johnson's proposal.

Johnson does have some truth to what he said, and Su Tian’s passing style is more influenced by Stockton’s passing style because it was first integrated with Stockton and then later integrated with Magic Johnson. If it is large, it will naturally tend to be more stable.

But now that the team is in crisis, the method Johnson mentioned can really be tried. After all, it can't get worse.

After thinking about it, Su Tian said: "Erwin, what you said does make some sense. I will consider it carefully in the next game to see if there is any chance."

The night Su Tian and Johnson ended their conversation, May 5, Game 21 of the Eastern Conference Finals began.

The tone of this game was set from the beginning. The Cavaliers led the Celtics by 34 points 18-16 in the first quarter.

The Celtics caught up in the second quarter, and Jaylen Brown and Tatum both played brilliantly. However, the Celtics only improved their offense, but their defense was still not good enough. There was a fight between the two sides in the second quarter. Tied, at the end of the first half, the Cavaliers still led by 16 points.

In the third quarter, the Cavaliers' offense began to feel a little weak, but Tyronn Lue was still a championship coach after all, so he began to work hard on defense, and the two sides still played a tie.

At this time, Stevens also paid attention to Tyronn Lue for the first time. Stevens had always believed that Tyronn Lue won the championship because of the accumulation of superstars, but now it seems that he still has something in his hands.

In the fourth quarter, Stevens still did not give up and arranged for the main players to come on directly and start competing for the final victory.

As for the Cavaliers, under the leadership of James, they successfully stabilized the point difference.

At the end of the game, the Cavaliers successfully defeated the Celtics 111-102, and the score was tied at 2-2.

After the game, although the score was only a tie, the fans' voices became one-sided.

"I have already said that the Green Army is no match for our emperor! Our emperor is mighty!"

"These two teams are really interesting. They only win at home and lose on the road. According to this rule, the Celtics should win the next game."

"No, the Celtics have lost all their energy after this game. The next game will basically depend on James' performance. If James can perform well, the Cavaliers will win. If James does not perform well, It will probably be stolen by the Celtics."

"The Eastern Conference Finals is really not interesting. James will definitely enter the Finals. The league will not let him stop in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Western Conference Finals is still interesting."

"Is the Western Conference Finals interesting? I don't think so. The Lakers will go home to fish soon. The Warriors have basically booked a spot in the Finals. The Lakers still lack stars."

The topic of the Eastern Conference Finals unknowingly turned to the Western Conference Finals. After all, there are only these two rounds to watch now.

On May 5, the fourth game of the Western Conference Finals began.

Before the game started, Su Tian first found his teammates to express his anger, and asked everyone to pay attention to the passing in this game, as there might be some surprises.

As for the Warriors, there are no surprises. The starting lineup is still five small lineups.

On the Lakers' side, it also became a five-minute opening.

"The Lakers have changed their lineup, but it seems to be no different from the same. The first three games have proven that the Lakers' five players are no match for the Warriors' five players," Barkley said.

"Maybe, but at least Walton tried bravely this time." Kenny Smith said immediately.

At the beginning of the game, this time the Warriors took the lead. Curry got the ball and advanced with it. After arriving in the frontcourt, he passed the ball directly to Durant and smoothly set up a pick-and-roll for Durant.

With the help of the pick-and-roll, Durant broke through directly to the mid-range position with the ball, stopped for a jump shot.

Swah——

Durant had a good start and made a direct shot.

Complete conversion, it's the Lakers' turn to attack.

Ball advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, called his teammates for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to directly break through. After successfully attracting the defense, he passed the ball to Su Tian, ​​who was at the three-point line.

Su Tian got the ball and broke through again. It all happened so quickly that no one had time to react. When Green saw Su Tian break through to the basket, he subconsciously helped defend against double teams.

Seeing Green coming over, Su Tian directly collected the ball and took off, making a layup gesture.

Upon seeing this, Green immediately jumped up and wanted to block the shot.

But just when Su Tian jumped to the highest point, Su Tian did not take a layup. Instead, he held the basketball tightly with one hand, took the basketball back to his waist, and changed the layup action into a back pass.

Su Tian made a very confusing pass to Green, and passed the basketball to Randall accurately.

Randall was a little confused when he got the ball, because even Randall himself didn't know how the ball came to his hands, but Randall subconsciously caught the ball and shot directly.

Swah——

Randall made a steady hit from mid-range.

It wasn't until Randall made the shot that the audience realized what Su Tian had just done.

At this time, Barkley in the commentary box also became less calm.

"What is this? What is this! That's not Sue, that's Michael Jordan! Oh my god!"

"Charles, don't get excited. Although I know you are excited, please don't get excited yet."

"Kenny, did you see it? That pass was so cool, it reminded a lot of people! Jordan, Johnson, and me!" Barkley said excitedly.

"Um, you? Are you sure? Charles?" Kenny Smith said with a look of disgust.

"Of course! I'm sure that pass was very much like me!" Barkley looked so proud that he thought he had passed the ball just now.

At this time, although it was the home court of the Warriors, the pass Su Tian just made was still replayed on the big screen, because that pass was so exciting!

"Your pass was indeed very good, but it was only two points, or even you just got an assist."

At this time, such words rang in Su Tian's ears. Su Tian looked back and saw that it was Draymond Green.
