Build a Dream Dynasty - Chapter 969 Can't beat open unparalleled

When the Clippers face the Nets, another thing that is very constraining the Nets is that, with Embiid around, the Nets dare not rush into a small lineup to fight for their lives. Don't look at some fans who will complain that Porzingis is usually a "wave god", but when he encounters Embiid, he becomes a "spinach", but in the Christmas battle between the two teams in the first round, Porzingis still gave Emby on both ends of offense and defense. De created some trouble. If there is no Porzingis, Embiid can't imagine the lethality in the interior.

​

The Clippers' biggest advantage is Embiid, and their disadvantage is their bench. Against the Nets, the Clippers must compress the rotation lineup and make full use of the most capable lineup in the team to fight against the Nets, and the pressure on personnel scheduling is even greater. After the timeout, the Clippers replaced Fernandez with Nick Young, who was absent due to injury in the last matchup. This move is also to put Fernandez on top of the rotation and give Durant as much playing time as possible.

​

The singles king joined the Clippers this season, a decline from last season's performance with the Lakers. His style of play is much more selfless than he was when he was young. He has regained his pass key and can also play a dozen without the ball, but in the final analysis he is better at attacking with the ball. In the Clippers, he didn't have much possession of the ball, he couldn't develop his touch, and his offensive performance declined. And on the defensive end, he's only at the mid-to-lower level. Rivers chose to rank him because the Clippers' other bench players are weaker.

​

On the Nets side, there is no rush to adjust the lineup on the court. Teodosic is out, and the Nets' bench is lacking, and Joe Johnson needs to be on the bench to stabilize the situation.

​

Nick Young replaced Fernandez, and the Clippers' relatively complete defensive system immediately had problems. Compared with Fernandez's height, strength, and movement, Nick Young has obvious disadvantages in terms of height and strength in the face of George's swing to the second position. The Nets took advantage of this and consciously let George attack. , and at the same time widen the distance between Curry and George to ensure that Curry involves the Clippers’ defensive energy to the greatest extent, especially Dream Chaser Green, who is excellent in assisting defense.

​

George scored three consecutive offenses to help the Nets overtake the score.

​

This is already a direct dialogue between the strongest team in the league, but the situation formed is that the Nets have more superstars, and the Nets can use more people on the bench. It is conceivable that once the Nets are in a Full blood state, how much damage the balance.

​

The Clippers continued to rely on Embiid and Durant's singles in a situation of chasing points. The tactics designed by Rivers reduced the wear and tear of Durant and Embiid. Dragic can also occasionally show his strength and finish. Score, but in this level of confrontation, a team with only two and a half fire points is dangerous, not to mention the Nets have three top wing defenders on the court, Leonard, George, Roberson can take turns With Durant on the line alone, Durant has a very heavy burden on his shoulders.

​

In the tenth minute of the first quarter, Durant's running has declined. Not only does he have to take on the heaviest offensive task on the offensive end, he also has to match Leonard on the defensive end. When Curry holds the ball In order to consume Durant as much as possible, the Nets did not hesitate to speed up the rhythm of the game's offense and defense transition. Under the pressure of multiple parties, Durant even slowed down his own attack. pace.

​

Seeing this, Rivers made adjustments immediately, Gortat replaced Embiid, Fernandez replaced Durant, Barbosa replaced Dragic, and faced the Nets with a bench lineup. In this way, the team Offensively, it's up to Nick Young.

​

After the war of attrition in the first quarter, despite the fact that the Nets have more abundant offensive resources, they are also very tired. But Stevens not only did not replace the main players at this time, but let Joe Johnson come on stage, forming the strongest offensive lineup of the Nets.

​

Stevens' strategy is to seize this opportunity, build a certain lead as much as possible, and set the tone for the entire game. Implemented in the game, the players on the field also sat on this point, punched hard at the end of the first quarter, and hit a wave of 10:2 attack waves. After the battle, he led the Clippers by 9 points with 37:28.

​

After careful preparation, he still fell behind by a large score after the first quarter. Rivers' mentality was a little out of balance, but he was a little helpless when looking at the team's lineup. Unless Durant and Embiid are replaced in advance, it seems that the Clippers have no other players capable of leading the team to counterattack and narrow the point difference. It's not bad to be able to survive the current situation in the matchup in the first half of the second quarter.

​

In such a situation, Rivers can only complain that the Nets have destroyed the balance of the league just like the opening!

​

But in fact, the formation of this situation, in addition to the gap in the lineup of the two sides, is also related to the scheduling of the two coaches. Stevens is often able to maximize the advantage of the team's lineup, which is also a factor that many people don't see, but it does exist.

​

After sending Fanny Smith and Royce O'Neal on the flank one after another, and Robertson's mention of the No. 4 position, the Nets' flank strength has declined compared to the beginning of the season. But the timely addition of Caruso was a surprise to the team. This unassuming and bald white combo guard quickly showed his own characteristics after joining the team, that is, a good running and jumping talent among guards at the same level and his enthusiasm for surpassing others. The Nets' time can establish a certain advantage early in the game, allowing Caruso to get more playing time, which also helps to improve his game experience. He also defeated Livingston in the competition and won the game. More trust from head coach Stevens. After his debut, he also reported Stevens' trust with his performance. Active running and confrontation made Martin of the Clippers very uncomfortable. Kevin Martin, a superb shooter, missed the outside line twice in a row. Firth had to reshuffle the lineup again.

​

On the Nets side, this season has also had a rough start. VanVleet, who has improved through continuous training and competition, has made obvious progress. As the team's third point guard, he can not only control himself Don't mess around, when the team lacks a breakthrough sharp knife, it can also show itself in a timely manner, breaking into the Clippers' penalty area to stir up the opponent's penalty area defense.

​

Before the start of the season, the Nets were known as a concentration camp for the undrafted, and at this stage of the season, the two undrafted Fanny Smith and Royce O'Neal brought the Nets back as high-quality chips, respectively, and VanVlee. Special and Wood has become a high-quality contract. Whether it is reserved as a backup or used as a trade, for the Nets, there are too many options.

​

Four minutes into the second quarter, when Embiid returned to the court, the score difference had reached 15 points. After his debut, Embiid also frowned and was very dissatisfied with the trend of the game. But there is nothing he can do if he is not satisfied. He is not Durant. Durant signed a 1+1 contract with the team last season. He cannot win the championship this season. Maybe Durant will just run away. He is different. This year is the third season of his career. The money he earns is only a fraction of Durant's. This summer, the Clippers will reach an early contract extension with Embiid with a maximum salary. By then , Embiid can get to the side of the billionaire, and then honestly stay with the Clippers for a few years. . . . . . .

​

Embiid came on stage, the Clippers had the backbone, and the game immediately became different. With Embiid filling in on the inside, the Clippers pressed harder on the outside. VanVleet passed Barbosa and dashed to the basket for a layup. He was blocked by Embiid with the ball, and his teammates launched a fast break. Embiid didn’t forget to spit trash at VanVleet on the ground. An angry VanVleet made a mistake and got up and took grace. Bede was pushed to the ground. . . . . . .

​

Embiid also got two free throws for a technical foul. After his debut, he led the team to beat the Nets 6-0, and the point difference was reduced to single digits. Embiid successfully forced Curry back to the court.

​

In the league, when it comes to who plays the most role against the Nets, Embiid sits on the top of the list, and when it comes to who Embiid hates the most in the league, Curry comes out on top. As a heavy center, Embiid has practiced his defensive awareness to the best level, but every time he is called by Curry after the pick-and-roll, he is played nine times out of ten.

​

I don’t want to be named by Curry for a small fight~www.novelbuddy.com~ The way is to double-team. The Nets’ outside line Caruso and Joe Johnson are well positioned. The inside line’s Wood can not only eat cakes at the basket, but also have a close range. The ability to attack the frame also makes the Clippers' defense extremely uncomfortable.

​

The two sides were deadlocked for two minutes, and the main players returned to the court. Durant, who had rested for a while, went straight to the court after returning to the court. Durant has been drunk and efficient with 9 of 16 shots, and still can't lead the Clippers to take the lead. The Clippers are still 6 points behind 54:60.

​

On the scene, Jiang Mingliang couldn't help but feel a little regretful about the pattern of the three-year battle with Lu Bu. If Durant joined the team in the summer of 2016, then the current Nets team is simply brutal, and the team may not be able to get George. However, library The combination of Li + Leonard + Durant + Porzingis is too deterrent to imagine, but unfortunately, this combination can only appear in reverie.

​

Maybe from Durant's point of view, he wants to fight for another year with the Clippers. If he still can't rely on his own efforts to break the Nets' domination, he will jump out of the contract to join the Nets in the summer of 2017? It's a pity that Durant didn't expect George to directly force the team to make a deal, taking the lead in "defection", and also blocked the road for Durant to join. The addition of George also made the Nets' hard power stronger. If the Nets' lineup remained unchanged, the Clippers still had hope, but now. . . . . .

​

In this half, Durant lost his confidence!
