NBA: The opening game gets a death entanglement

“Of course, even if that’s the case, we need a combination of internal and external scoring.”

‘In the next game, the defense of our interior players will also be more important because the Celtics have a lot of points on the inside today.

“So we have to be more rigorous on the inside in the next game, and we can’t give them the same chances as today, which means we can avoid a lot of lost points that shouldn’t happen.”

“Whether it’s the substitutes up front or the main players in the front line, your defensive performance today was very average and did not meet my satisfaction, although sometimes you showed some wonderful things, but it was far from enough.”

“You can’t relax for a moment in the playoffs, so you need to be at your best at all times to beat your opponents, not the occasional highlight.”

Coach D’Antoni also made his own requirements for the next game, and also predicted that the opponent’s next game is likely to target the Knicks’ interior line.

And all the team members need to come up with their own means for this form, forming a restraint tactic specifically aimed at the opponent.

After hearing D’Antoni’s words, Lin Dong also felt that the next game is likely to be slow, and the players will be more difficult, which is equivalent to testing himself and Curry.

Because there are many opportunities today from the outside scoring, in the next game, the Celtics are likely to defend Lin Dong and Curry’s three-point defense, and will also defend Lin Dong’s breakthrough.

Because Lin Dong’s breakthrough played a big role in today’s critical time, whether it was Lin Dong’s breakthrough pass, or Lin Dong’s own breakthrough after scoring, the entire Knicks’ offense was revitalized.

As Coach D’Antoni said, in the next game, the Celtics will definitely not allow Lin Dong to score so easily, and will definitely take a series of measures to limit Lin Dong’s breakthrough and three-pointers.

Of course, this also includes limiting Curry’s three-point shots.

“It seems that I added attribute points to the three-point shot this time, which is still the right choice, and when facing the opponent’s defense in the next game, the three-point shooting rate is likely to decrease.”

“Now that I have adjusted my attribute point a little higher, it will mean that the shooting percentage will be higher in the future, which can also reduce the pressure on the inside and attract the opponent to defend against him, which is equivalent to giving the inside players more opportunities to attack.”

Lin Dong thought clearly about this, because when attacking, it is nothing more than two means of scoring, inside or outside.

Inside players can shoot from mid-range or after a contest from a position under the basket.

And there are only two ways for outside players to score, that is, jump shots or break through and shoot after shooting.

If the Celtics target Lin Dong and Curry in the next game, the two are likely to shoot a little less from the outside three-point line.

Unless you are sure that you will shoot, and more often, you will use a breakaway layup to score.

If you encounter a strong defense from your opponent, you will give the ball to the inside player.
