Chapter 980 This is stability
At the beginning of the second quarter, Mo Mengchen sat off the court to watch the game.
Westfar is not in a hurry to replace all the two aces selected for the Double First Team.
He first lets Hill back on the court to ensure that there are core players in charge, and the other four players are Ginobili, Gerard, Rashid and Magloil.
This is a lineup with extremely strong defense.
Gerald, Rashid and Magloil were enough to turn the Pistons' penalty area into a no-fly zone.
On the Spurs' side, the old demon Kidd only took a two-minute break before returning to the field.
"If Dor.Mo was not available, Jason Kidd should be the best organizational guard in the world." At this time, Ranbill said.
Only real experts can see the way Kidd controls the game.
Vinier Johnson even tied him with many legendary defenders: "In terms of organization only, he can compare with Magicians, Isaiah, John Stockton, and Dor.Mo."
It is very interesting to confront people like this.
Just like those players whose destiny was changed by Mo Mengchen, Kidd is one of them.
At this moment of his previous life, according to the established historical trajectory, Kidd became the second person in the NBA assist list as a recognized old monster, and the third person in the three-pointer to hit the list. As the commander of the Dallas Mavericks, he helped Nowitzki win the championship. At that time, he was like an old man holding a cigarette pipe and relying only on his weird overall view and passing with a soul, becoming the most insightful defender in the league.
But that was the past life, and in this life, Kidd's fate has been changed.
He joined the Spurs and came to Popovich's command. It was no longer Duncan who stopped him, but Dor.Mo and the Pistons who were invincible.
Nowitzki is not in the Mavericks, nor is he in the Nets, and there are many things that are hard to predict in the future.
But now, he is 30 years old and is still a backcourt monster with unlimited physical fitness. He averaged 20 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds per game in the playoffs, which is enough to be a temporary ray of Dor.Mo. In addition, the penny who has been sent home to fish, the three of them are the three best defenders in the world.
Kidd had been thinking for a long time and finally made a decision, relying on Swift's physical fitness to pass the ball towards the inside.
Swift's stubborn game style is well known. Now he gets the ball, but he still knows how to make a fake move - this is not enough, but it has already made Kidd feel deeply relieved - the fake move failed to shake Magloyle, and Swift relied on his physical fitness to swallow a hot pot.
The ball flew out of bounds, and Swift caught up with him with all his might and almost rescued him.
"If I put this guy's talent on me," said the trash dog indignantly, "I am definitely the No. 1 pick in the 2000 draft, and that sissy Elton Brand can't compete with me at all."
Assuming that Swift's talent is really put on Jerome, Mo Mengchen believes that he can become a talent, but his peak period will not be long because his playing style is too fierce and he has no talent to hurt himself. If he has talent, that would be great?
Curry, who was sitting next to Jerome, kept nodding: "Yes, yes, what you say is what you say."
If the Spurs fail to score this goal, they have to pay more enthusiasm on the defensive end.
42 to 36
The Pistons temporarily led by 6 points. Ginobili dribbled the ball across the half and handed the ball to Hill at a high position. At this time, the two insiders pulled out to cover at the same time. The Spurs were vacuumed in the penalty area and Gerald cut in with the opportunity.
A typical piston blind spot incision.
Gerrard's opponent is the Spurs' blue-collar forward Marik Ross. This person's offensive skills are flexible and changeable, but the highlight lies in the defensive end, just like the Spurs' silver and black jersey, which is exactly his style, tough and ruthless and cold.
However, Gerald's cutting time was too good. Without the help of the inside, Ross lost the initiative and took action from behind and hit Gerald's arm. However, the latter jumped up under the basket with explosive power and dunked backhand.
"Boom hard and be mighty!" Teammate shouted excitedly.
44 to 36
On the Spurs, Kid chose to fight back and force Ginobili to take his body.
Gerald decisively threw Ross down, cut across the inside, and attacked Kidd with the Argentine Demon Sword.
Ross got an open position on the outside, and Kidd passed the ball, not to make him score, because Ross had no three-point ability at all. He would never shoot a three-pointer unless he had to take a buzzer-beating attack.
With such a large open space, the audience laughed loudly. Ross missed the opportunity to attack and waited until Kidd approached before handing over the ball.
This is the flaw of the times. There are not many reliable 3D players at present. Most of the swingers have D or 3s. In this era with tight space, blue-collar workers who do not have three points will generally not be targeted like this, so the Pistons will use various creative defensive strategies.
The 76ers suffered a great loss because they did not wade through the water, and the Spurs were also targeted repeatedly because of their lack of shooters.
Kidd had a good back-playing opportunity and was double-teamed and there was no attack. Ross also gave up the open three-pointer. The ball was passed around, but in the end, Kidd had to take a buzzer-beating three-pointer.
Failed.
So far, Kidd has scored 4 points at the start. After those two difficult emergency stop jump shots, he has never scored again.
The Pistons' defense was like a curse, Mo Mengchen sat steadily off the court, watching Kidd, who was forcibly bragged by the Holy City media, feel indifferent.
The Pistons relied on defense to remedy the Spurs, and in turn, the Spurs also used defense to deal with the Pistons.
The other thing about this group of people is to defend well. From starting to substitute, Popovich firmly implemented the core concept of defensive team building.
The restricted area is blocked and the outside is strengthened.
The Spurs used a dangerous move, forcing the Pistons to shoot three-pointers from the outside.
Although the Pistons are the team that likes three-pointers the most, the only scary shooters in the whole team are Mo Mengchen and Reed. Other all-round ball holders who combine surprise shots on the outside are all-around ball holders.
Hill got a three-pointer from the outside and had no time to attack. Even if he was in a bad position, he had to take action.
Missed a three-pointer, the Spurs' plan seemed to be successful.
Hill missed a three-pointer, Kidd changed his game strategy and handed over the task to Arenas, who was not afraid of heaven or earth, but was afraid that Popovich would invite tea.
As a second-year student, Arenas is an indispensable outside player for the Spurs. He averaged 18 points per game this season, and various offensive methods have begun to emerge.
When facing him, Gerald mainly defends against projection.
Arenas didn't care what his defensive focus was, looking at the basket, straightened his waist and pulled out a strong shot.
39 to 44
This shot made the Empire Axis Arena quiet.
A completely superstar, no other player except superstars would play like this, and Arenas suppressed his opponent.
The Pistons lost their long pitching feel on the offensive end and had to get the ball in and break through.
This is Swift's favorite moment. As long as someone breaks through, he will assist in defense according to Kidd's slogan, and he can give out several handsome blocks every time.
In addition to his brain capacity, he is full of superstar configurations.
Hill got the block, and Magloyle grabbed the offensive rebound and made two fake moves in a row. Although they tricked Swift, the opponent's physical fitness was outstanding. After being shaken, he immediately jumped up for a second time, but he still kept up with his shot and made a big shot with the second big shot.
Kidd grabbed the defensive rebound, the Spurs counterattacked, and Arenas ran to catch the ball and scored a layup in the frontcourt.
41 to 44
Arenas scored 5 points in a row, and Westfal couldn't sit still. Usually, the Pistons bullied the opponent without shooting range. They boldly narrowed the penalty area and made the opponent break in a hurry. Now it's the opposite.
"Gerard, I hope you can see you practice reliable long shots next season." Mo Mengchen said to Gerald before playing.
If he only said this, no one else would react.
"Don't play like your mother, who has been playing for decades and can't even make a three-pointer." As soon as Mo Mengchen finished speaking, Hill spit out Gatorade in his mouth, "Who said I'm not sure about three-pointer?!"
In order to ensure an outside shot, Westfal replaced Momonchen and Reed at the same time.
"Do you know what is accurate?"
Mo Mengchen slowly walked towards the frontcourt and asked Hill to pass the ball.
Hill did the porter's task, leading the ball across the half-court like a point guard, landing in front, Reed stood in the bottom corner on the left, and the Spurs did not dare to underestimate it.
Mo Mengchen stopped at the forty-five degrees on the right, and Hill reached out and called for tactics.
Rashid saw that he was coming to cover, but in fact, Mo Mengchen suddenly stopped at his position, turned around, ran in the opposite direction, got rid of Kid's close-fitting defense in one fell swoop, ran to the top of the arc, and cooperated with Hill to catch the ball. Finally, Yanye shot Kirirenko one meter across the three-point line.
The ball rotated at high speed, and Kirilenko was sure that he had given Mo Mengchen the greatest interference.
But Mo Mengchen looked too confident and calm when shooting, as if his blocking had no effect at all.
Does it really have no impact?
Kirilenko didn't believe it.
Apart from not being able to cover the ball, his defense is perfect.
"Swish!"
"Don't you want to know what stability is?" Mo Mengchen fired at Hill, "This is stability."
