Chapter 146 Dream Chasing Green(1/2)
"THREE POINTS!"
Under the huge cheers of the on-site DJ, Lillard successfully hit a three-pointer during the fast-paced offensive and defensive transition in the game.
And Lillard's arrogant and arrogant expression after he forced the three-pointer to hit was also accurately captured by the live broadcast footage. Countless fans watching the live broadcast fell in love with it even more. This is just
A third-year young perimeter player.
Sometimes, a player can quickly grow into a superstar player, which is inseparable from his confidence in himself, his strength on the court, and his domineering ability to attract fans.
In the NBA, strength is a very important aspect, but the number of fans and the number of fans is also one of the factors that determine the overall influence of the players.
Whether he can be loved by more fans still depends on his personal charm.
At least now, Lillard's own leadership qualities and dedicated game attitude, coupled with the blessing of Zhang Feng's teammate status, have allowed his domestic fans to slowly increase.
In a short period of time, the two teams hit 4 consecutive three-pointers.
In less than 1 minute, the score instantly increased by 12 points.
Such a fast-paced offensive performance and excellent offensive performance was indeed an offensive feast for the audience.
The fast pace of offense from both sides continued.
In the face of the Blazers' two consecutive three-pointers answer ball, instead of taking advantage of the Splash Brothers' three-pointers to widen the score gap, it did not interfere with the Warriors' own offensive rhythm.
In the final lineup arranged in the second half of the second quarter, although the absolute core of the Golden State Warriors' offense is still the Splash Brothers Curry and Klay Thompson, these two spend most of their time in the frontcourt.
The latter goal is played without the ball, and the ball handling on the offensive end relies on Iguodala at the small forward position or Dream Green at the power forward position.
Iguodala dribbled the ball by himself. As a small forward, Iguodala thought that he had the advantage of physical confrontation. Although his speed was not too fast, he could rely on his body to resist when facing the defense, so there was not much risk.
Dribbling options.
After Iguodala passed halftime, he tried to make a difference directly in the middle. He didn't have a good chance to break through, so he could only hand the ball to Dream Green at a 45-degree angle on the right.
For Dream Green, although Dream Green has excellent passing ability, his three-point shooting ability from the outside does not currently have a very high shooting rate.
Although it may be because of the Golden State Warriors that Cole now wants to create a unique perimeter offensive style and has been practicing three-pointers in training, the current dream-chasing Green is unable to form an effective threat from beyond the three-point line.
, he still needs more time to grow.
This also makes it quite easy for Aldridge to defend Dream Green in the matchup.
Aldridge's defense does not have to be too forward at all. It is simply to stand in the three-point line of his own defensive half, let Green take two steps, let him shoot, and mainly defend his breakthrough with the ball, allowing him to basically
There is no space for him to break through with the ball.
However, what Warriors head coach Cole appreciates about Dream Green is of course not his personal offensive ability, but his excellent passing skills, which allow him to act as an organizational forward and deliver the ball to the Warriors' offensive firepower.
.
Klay Thompson is in the right corner.
Although Matthews has excellent defensive ability, he also has good physical confrontation ability, which can stop Klay Thompson from advancing.
But on the defensive end, Matthews' confrontation ability is a 50-50 split against Klay Thompson's height and wingspan advantages.
After all, although Klay Thompson may not be able to compare with Matthews in terms of confrontation strength.
But if he really needs to get the ball in a certain deep position, Klay Thompson can completely use a turn-over jumper to prevent Matthews from interfering and complete the shot.
As for Matthews, especially Klay Thompson, when he gets close to the threat area in the three-second zone, Matthews will basically choose to use forward defense to stop Klay Thompson.
to prevent him from directly completing the offense with a turn-over jump shot or a fadeaway jump shot from close range after receiving the ball.
When the defensive team uses forward defense, there are actually some tests for the game that test the strength of the offensive team's passer.
As the name suggests, forward defense involves moving the body in front of the offensive player to avoid direct passing contact between the player in position and the player holding the ball, thereby interfering with their reception.
If you want to complete the pass, when the defensive player moves forward to defend, basically, you have to either give up the offensive position he has grabbed, withdraw, get rid of the forward defense, and complete the ball.
Or it can only test the passing ability of the passer, whether the ball can be passed in a parabola and land in front of the offensive player when the ball is higher than the defender's control range.
It is very simple to send out a parabola, but it is not so easy to control the landing point and the strength.
First of all, if you can avoid the defensive player from going around and form a direct interception, you must be higher than his defensive control range.
Secondly, the power of passing the ball should not be too great, because the defensive team's overall defense will definitely have an inside player sitting inside.
If the passing force is too strong and it directly enters the three-second zone, a defensive player will come over and intercept the ball directly, and the offensive player will also be unable to complete the attack.
Generally speaking, forward defense is a defensive option used by small players, or in the interior, in the low post, when 1v1 cannot dominate, to interfere with the offensive player receiving the ball.
Although this kind of defensive method is very tiring for the defensive player, because he has to stay in motion and block all frontal passing routes, the effect is also extremely excellent.
The offensive side does not have an excellent passer and usually does not pass the ball easily when faced with a forward defense.
Because once you catch the ball, you may still face help defenders, but may not score.
If you don't catch the ball, it's a turnover ball.
And Dream Green is a player with a big heart.
Dream Green is very similar to Zhang Feng. They both entered the NBA as second-round picks, and they were not second-round picks at the top of the draft.
In the NBA, where talent has a lot to say, neither of them disappeared from the crowd and became passers-by in the NBA as people "expected" to do.
Rather, both of them can rely on their own efforts and exploration of their own strengths to gain a foothold in the NBA, and they will spend a lot of time trying their best to improve their comprehensiveness and help themselves.
More adaptable to NBA game rhythm.
What Zhang Feng is good at is shooting from the outside. He uses his shooting advantage from the outside to stay on his feet and form a pick-and-roll partner with Lillard. In the new season, he will use his significantly improved inside confrontation ability in the summer to win on the ball. It is easier to gain a foothold in the team.
As for Dream Green, who plays in the post without much height advantage, he relies on his flexibility, confrontational nature, and excellent ability to organize and pass the ball on the offensive end to get the most from the Golden State Warriors. Re-employment of the team's coaching staff.
As for Dream Green, the most important thing in the Warriors' offensive system is his excellent ability to organize the ball.
His organizational ability allows the Splash Brothers to not be distracted from attacking with the ball. When Curry and Klay Thompson are attacking without the ball, that is when they pose the greatest offensive threat.
After all, when holding the ball, the defensive players may directly double-team to attack, but when running without the ball, there are always two defensive players to defend. If you dare to defend, then other positions The space is even bigger.
When he saw Matthews choosing to defend forward during the game, Dream Chaser Green had already decided to pass the ball.
Chasing Dream Green directly hoisted the ball to the basket area.
Klay Thompson, on the other hand, penetrated directly to the basket and just received the pass from Dream Green.
However, Zhang Feng's defense was very fast.
Klay Thompson had no chance to directly complete the layup.
However, Klay Thompson's court reading ability is very good.
When Zhang Feng came over to directly defend, Klay Thompson directly hit the ball to the ground and passed the ball, finding Bogut in the middle.
Bogut's quick insertion this time was very offensive, as he directly hit the basket after receiving the ball.
However, Zhang Feng's defensive choices were very good.
While guarding Klay Thompson, he also paid great attention to his positioning.
The moment Klay Thompson chose to pass the ball, Zhang Feng immediately turned around and faced Bogut who was rushing over to catch the ball.
Although Bogut was the No. 1 pick at the beginning, throughout his career, he has not reached the level of a foreign No. 1 pick like Dayao.
He can only be regarded as a center with NBA strength, but in terms of personal offensive ability and physical talent, he is not that outstanding.
This time, Klay Thompson's ground pass, if it had been received by an American center, would have been a direct dunk using explosive power.
But for Bogut, the troubles of injuries, his own weight, and his not-so-excellent explosive power can only satisfy him to take three big steps, get to the basket, and use layups to make progress. The ball scores.
However, Bogut underestimated Zhang Feng's speed in returning to defense. Perhaps Bogut thought that all international centers were as slow as him. This time, Bogut's layup was caught by Zhang Feng who quickly turned around and returned to defense. .
A big shot after taking off, the ball flew directly away.
Bogut was a little surprised by Zhang Feng's speed of returning to defense, while the audience at the scene was completely shocked by Zhang Feng's big hit.
This was a quite outstanding defensive performance. Zhang Feng used his defensive ability to directly end the Golden State Warriors' offense.
Sometimes, such a successful blocking defense can improve the morale of the team more than a goal on the offensive end, and can also make the fans more involved in the game.
However, Zhang Feng's excellent defense this time still failed to prevent the Golden State Warriors from scoring.
The ball was passed directly to the baseline by Zhang Feng, a baseline ball from the Golden State Warriors.
Curry came to serve the baseline ball, which surprised the Blazers' defense.
Closer to home, Bogut was in the lower left corner of the basket, close to Curry's free throw position. It was very difficult for Zhang Feng to gain a positional advantage.
But Curry's pass did not go to Bogut. Instead, he hit the ground and passed the ball through the basket area and directly to the lower right side of the basket.
Bogut and Zhang Feng were fighting in front of them, which affected the observation of the passing angle. When Aldridge looked at the ball, his reaction was already full.
However, Dream Chaser Green was well prepared and focused on the game.
He took the first step, grabbed the basketball, and directly looked for opportunities to attack at close range under the basket.
Aldridge did not directly intercept or destroy the baseline pass from Curry at the first time, but he could also quickly get close to Dreaming Green, leaving him with no way to easily complete the offense at the basket.
After all, Aldridge's height and wingspan give him a huge defensive advantage when defending Dream Green.
However, Dream Green had no fear of Aldridge at all when he was attacking.
