Chapter 678: Possessed by Yang Shuai

"The Warriors' initiative to change is the most important reason why they finally won this game. In the two games in Santonio, Tony Parker sent 50 points and 19 assists, but in this game, he only had 50 points and 19 assists.

He scored 9 points and 4 assists. Young's defense against Tony was the most important reason why the Warriors were able to take advantage at the beginning of this game. When the Spurs were restricted on the offensive end, their defense was obviously not enough to cause too much damage to the Warriors.

Big trouble..."

"Defense? Maybe, Young's defense against Tony is an important reason for the Warriors to win, but we should see Young's performance on the offensive end more. With 37 points, 12 assists and 13 rebounds, Yang once again had a triple-double. This is

Something he didn't do in San Antonio..."

"This was a typical Warriors-style victory. Young had a triple-double, Tyreke scored 2155, and the team made 13 three-pointers. Everything was so normal. When the Warriors play a normal offense, the league can

The team that prevents them from winning must have enough quality and luck, and it is obvious that the Spurs did not have both tonight..."

After the game, various media commented on the game. When it comes to the Warriors' victory, Yang Shuai will inevitably be mentioned. Whether it is offense or defense, Yang Shuai is the most critical figure in this game.

, with 3712 data, he completely revitalized the team's offense, and his restriction on Parker on the defensive end was indeed a key factor in the Warriors' victory.[

Parker was completely lost in Yang Shuai's defense throughout the game. Behind his 9 points and 4 assists were a low shooting percentage of 3 of 12 and 5 turnovers. In the first two games, Parker was the strongest offensive point of the Spurs and was also the core of the organization.

, and in this game, Parker had no power in either aspect, and the Spurs' offense fell into chaos.

Of course, when it comes to the Warriors' victory, Evans is also one of the contributors. After losing to the Spurs 0:2, many experts pointed out that the Warriors' offense relied too much on Yang Shuai. No other players stepped up to share the pressure for Yang Shuai. This

There is such a character in the scene.

With 21 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals, Evans' performance in this game was remarkable, even shooting 2 of 4 from beyond the three-point line.

In the playoffs, the strength of both sides and the performance of the stars are certainly very important factors in winning, but flexibility is also a very important factor.

The Warriors took the initiative to make changes on the defensive end and also made positive changes on the offensive end, so they won the third game. However, the Warriors did not get carried away because of this game. The Warriors knew very well.

Even though they won the third game, they still trailed their opponents 1:2, and with Popovich's ability, the Spurs will definitely make some changes in the fourth game.

This is indeed the case. In the fourth game, the Warriors still adopted the strategy of Yang Shuai defending Parker, but compared with the third game, the effect was quite different.

The fourth game between the two sides was still held at the Oracle Arena, and the starting lineup did not change. However, the Spurs' offense had a lot of changes.

Asking Duncan to mention high post support is not a big change. After all, the Spurs have always done this in the previous games, but they used it more frequently in this game.

Ginobili's more participation in organizing offense is another change for the Spurs. Evans' defense of Ginobili is also pretty good, but compared with Yang Shuai, it is obviously not as good as that. Ginobili has been affected by

The defensive pressure is naturally less than Parker's.

Although Ginobili plays as a shooting guard, his organizational skills have not been praised much, but he has always done a very good job in this area, allowing him to share more of the task of organizing offense.

It's not too difficult.

Although Parker was restrained by Yang Shuai in the third game, he has very good strength after all, and it is impossible for Popovich to abolish such a strong point. He also made some changes for Parker.

.

Yang Shuai's defense is recognized as strong, and the Defensive Player of the Year award is not just because of his good data. He has outstanding defensive awareness, abnormal physical fitness, and high defensive concentration. Facing such a strong Yang Shuai, what should Parker do?

?Popovich gave a very good answer, hide!

Hide if you can't afford to offend him. This was Parker's strategy to break Yang Shuai's defense during the game. During the game, Jefferson frequently put up pick-and-roll screens for Parker, forcing Yang Shuai and Hinrich to switch defenses. Once successful, Parker would face Hinrich.

With Qi's defense, Parker also has a place to use.

Under such adjustments, the Spurs' offense has changed significantly compared to the previous game. Although the score has not increased significantly, the situation is completely different.

At the end of the first half, the two teams tied at 51:52, with the Warriors only leading by 1 point. The Spurs have improved on the offensive end, and the Warriors have fewer opportunities to counterattack. More importantly, the Warriors cannot play like they did in the last game.

Show such oppressive momentum.

After entering the second half, the Spurs seemed to play more vigorously. They played a 13:4 wave in the middle of the third quarter and once widened the point difference to 7 points. However, the Warriors then used their strength on the defensive end to suppress the Spurs' offense.

Morrow's good performance after coming on the field also slowly narrowed the point difference.

78:78, after the third quarter, the two teams were tied.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Yang Shuai was still sitting on the sidelines, and Nelson put in a small lineup at this time. Center Channing Frye, four outside players Evans, Belinelli, Moreau, and Collison

.This kind of lineup relies more on the outside for offense, but it has an absolute disadvantage in defense.

Sure enough, in the first attack of the fourth quarter, Morrow missed a shot from beyond the three-point line. After the Spurs grabbed the rebound, they quickly turned the ball inside and scored 2 points to take the lead.[

As soon as the ball was scored, Frye under the basket had already released the ball, and several Warriors players also quickly rushed towards the other half. The advantage of a small lineup lies in flexibility and speed. If France will

When these two advantages take full effect, Nelson's arrangement loses its meaning.

Frye stepped forward to pick and roll, and Collison immediately dribbled towards the basket. At this time, the Spurs basket was completely empty. After all, the five Warriors players can shoot three-pointers.

The ball was suddenly thrown out during a rush. Collison only took two steps to pass the ball. The ball flew out of Collison's hands and went straight to Anthony Morrow outside the three-point line on the right.

Suddenly he raised his hand from outside the three-point line and faked a shot. Morrow then dribbled straight to the basket. Danny Green did not expect that Moreau would fake a shot at this time. When he reacted,

Morrow, on the other hand, had already rushed to the basket quickly.

Matt Bonner covered the defense, and Morrow took out the ball with both hands and directly passed the ball to Belinelli who cut to the basket. Belinelli received the ball and easily made a layup.

The advantage of a small lineup is really reflected in the offense. Collison, Morrow, Belinelli, and Evans are all players who can shoot from beyond the three-point line and dribble through.

, which also doubled the Spurs' defensive pressure.

Fleila moved to the outside for pick-and-rolls and vacated space under the basket. After receiving the ball, the four took turns attacking the basket. The Warriors' first four points after the start of the fourth quarter were all achieved by breaking through to the basket and attacking.

Collison dribbled to half court again, and then quickly passed the ball to Evans on the right.

Taking a step to the left to catch the ball, Evans suddenly stopped and changed direction. The man had already dribbled to the right side. Beside him, Ginobili quickly moved sideways and followed Evans towards the basket.

move.

Taking two steps against Ginobili, Evans suddenly turned around and got away from Ginobili's entanglement. At this time, the ball went to Belinelli outside the right three-point line. Because

In the Warriors' previous offensive rounds, the Spurs players were more concentrated inside the three-point line, which also led to the weakening of defensive intensity near the three-point line.

After receiving the pass from Evans, Belinelli quickly moved the ball to the top of the arc. At this time, Collison was standing guard outside the three-point line.

"Whoa!" After catching the ball and taking a shot, Collison's shot hit steadily.

At 82:85, the Warriors gained a 3-point lead, and the ball came to the Spurs. George Hill, who came on the bench, took the ball across the frontcourt and sent it directly to Ginobili.

He made a fake shot from outside the three-point line. Ginobili slightly shook Evans's center of gravity and immediately dribbled toward the basket. Evans did not let the opponent take it easy, and kept moving his body.

Use your strength to interfere with the opponent's breakthrough.

Seeing Ginobili rushing into the three-second zone, Frye ignored McDyess and quickly moved forward to cover. He rushed to the basket and plunged into Frye's arms. Ginobili grabbed him.

The ball went around Frye and toward McDyess outside the three-second zone on the left.

The ball flew out of Ginobili's hand, but it did not fly directly to McDyess. I don't know whether Frye's judgment was accurate or it was intentional. His hand suddenly lifted up and happened to hit Ginobili's pass.

basketball. Although the force is not great, it changes the flight direction of the ball.

The distance was so close that McDyess had no time to react when he saw the ball flying past his eyes. When he turned around to get the ball, it was already a step too late. Collison appeared in time to grab the ball.

.

Grabbing the ball in his hands, Collison raised his head and looked forward, then pushed out with both hands, and the ball flew straight forward.

When receiving the pass from Collison, Morrow happened to cross the center line, dribbling the ball and continuing to rush forward. He chased Danny Green and rushed to the other side of the basket.

Emergency stop! Rushing outside the three-point line, Moreau suddenly stopped, took off, and shot!

Danny Green was completely unprepared. He was facing Morrow and not Yang Shuai. How could he be wary that the opponent would choose to shoot a three-pointer in a fast break?

"Whoa!" Green waved his arms and rushed forward again without affecting Moreau's shot. He raised the knife and hit a three-pointer! [

"Is this guy possessed by Yang?" In front of Moreau, Danny Green muttered sadly.

"Good shot!" On the bench, Yang Shuai jumped up and shouted. Morrow's hit made the score between the two teams reach 82:88, and the Warriors gained a 6-point advantage.

"Beep!" Popovich shouted a timeout. Yang Shuai also took off the towel on his body at this time. After this timeout, he will play. His teammates have helped the team gain an advantage. All he has to do is

Help the team keep the fruits of victory.
