Being eight points behind is not a big problem.
And with the offensive firepower of the Kings, once they get into a rhythm, eight points is just a matter of rhythm.
The Kings have an overall advantage in strength, and it seems that the Kings still have great hope.
But at this time, the Kings fans are not optimistic at all.
Even though they are not professionals, they still see that something is wrong with the situation on the court.
The Sleep Train Arena is filled with an atmosphere of pressure. In the Kings locker room at this time.
The depressing atmosphere is only more solemn than in the arena, and almost no one speaks.
There are no quarrels, but there are also mutual blames, and no infighting.
However, this kind of atmosphere is more terrible than quarrels, mutual blames, and infighting.
Adelman is still stuck in the tactics brought by Wang Chen and has not come out. For a famous coach like Adelman, there is no tactic that he cannot understand.
But this tactic is too advanced, more than ten years ahead, and the shock it brings is no less than that of old Nelson.
Finally, the assistant coach reminded Adelman.
Adelman took a look at the atmosphere in the locker room and immediately felt that something was wrong.
"We need to be focused enough. This is the playoffs. Show your aggression!"
Adelman clapped his hands and said to the players.
This eased the atmosphere a little.
But Bibby just raised his head, and his worry in his eyes became stronger.
Because he knew that Adelman was not a chicken soup coach. Adelman was just boosting morale during the break.......
This means that even Adelman has not found a way to crack the opponent.
Webber is also immune to this chicken soup encouragement.
Webber fell into his own thinking circle again. He was not mentally strong enough and often lost himself in the playoffs.
Now a rookie Anthony was shitting on his head and had to borrow paper from him.
This was simply unacceptable to Webber. If a player with a strong mental quality, he would definitely fight back strongly.
But this situation made Webber even more timid.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is known as the four major centers, talented, and the expectations for him are also among the top few in history.
This kind of thing that is an encouragement to others is more of a pressure in Webber's feelings, which makes him timid.
The two core players inside and outside the Kings were absent-minded at this time, and even Adelman fell into the thinking trap thrown by Wang Chen.
In the second quarter.
There were no major changes in the lineups of both sides.
Adelman did think about letting Webber come down to rest for a while and replacing him.
But who should he replace?
Although Webber is a player with strong offense but weak defense, that is when Webber faces power forwards with strong offense, such as Garnett and Duncan. At worst, they are inside players of Nene's level.
Webber's defensive weakness lies here. In fact, Webber's speed in the inside is quite suitable for defending Anthony.
Webber still struggles to defend Anthony. What about others, such as Brad Miller?
Brad Miller is also an inside player who assists in shooting and is not good at attacking the inside.
If the Kings have players who are good at attacking the inside, why do they have to rely on Bibby every time at a critical moment?
As for simply changing an outside player to defend Anthony, the only remaining inside and outside advantages will be gone.
The Kings were able to score 30 points in the first quarter. Although Webber did not score too many points, Webber's cutting into the inside was still very threatening to Anthony. He did not force Anthony, but attracted defense and assisted his teammates a lot of balls. Webber participated in most of the rounds for these 30 points.
And Adelman knew that changing the outside player to the power forward position was exactly what Wang Chen wanted.
Wang Chen's tactical style was not a spur-of-the-moment move, but a relatively complete system.
The second quarter was a repeat of the first quarter's offensive battle.
Kings 55:68 Nuggets
At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 13 points, and in the second quarter, they opened up a 5-point advantage.
"This match was so exciting, just like a boxing match, you punch me and I punch you to see who falls first."
