71 Light Space Mobility

6254

After 24 minutes of fierce fighting at home, the 76ers

As expected, they were nearly ten points behind the Golden State Warriors.

"You played very well, don't worry too much about falling behind." Encouragement is just a form of routine. After all, in Brett Brown's view, except for Young who scored 20 points and Covington who contributed 3 steals, the others

Performance

Unqualified

After the "What to do" encouragement, we have to find a way to solve the problem of lagging behind in the first half.

Can't help it

You can't guard against off-ball picks and cuts, you can't guard against individual singles, you can't guard against fixed-point shooting.

"Although this is Yang's team, you are also part of the team, and you must also make your contribution to let the opponent know that you are not easy to bully;

So, starting from the second half

Block people harder,

Cut in more aggressively

When you're stuck, don't act like a girl and get stuck behind a 1.98 meter dwarf.

Changes in formation

Even though Bogut would play in the first 6 minutes of the third quarter, Brett Brown decided to replace himself as the starter for the second half

He first removed Noel from the center position and pushed Young, who is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 114 kilograms, to the center position.

Then Alfonso McKinnie, who averaged 11 offensive rebounds per game and made 358 three-pointers, filled the starting small forward spot.

After pushing the original starting small forward Robert Covington to the power forward position, a new Philadelphia version of the small lineup was released.

…………

…………

"With nearly 7 feet and 6 feet 9 inches inside, the height of this small ball lineup is special enough." After all, Green, who is 1.98 meters, and Harrison Barnes, who is 2.03 meters, can form an inside line, with 2.06 meters and 2 meters.

It won't be surprising if 11 plays inside.

"The forwards are pushed inside, and the 76ers' forwards are not thick enough. Even Alfonso McKinney is on the line." After Young and Covington, there is McKinney. The 76ers small forward originally did not have a thickness problem.

.

"So, this is the reason why Sam is searching for valuable things in the trading market." In the market, there is nearly 10 million (9.99) million salary space. Apart from the Trail Blazers, who have a salary of less than 50 million, only the Philadelphia 76ers are left.

.

"Then let's see how it works first. After all, the Golden State Warriors won't start with a small lineup."

McConnell didn't shoot or defend, Alfonso McKinney didn't defend well, and Moore was just a level defender.

Therefore, attack is the only way out

"Double screen" In order to cover up his shooting shortcomings, Young asked McConnell and McKinney to take two steps outside the three-point line to participate in the screen in the first attack of the second half.

Because Bogut basically never leaves the edge of the three-second zone, Harrison Barnes can only squeeze through the screen.

"That's enough." After calculating that there was enough space, Yang threw the ball out like lightning.

"Hits the three, this is Young's second three-pointer in this game. His three-pointers have also gone from 1 of 5 to 2 of 6."

"Although he only made 8 of 17 in the first half, at the beginning of the second half, Young's long-range touch showed signs of recovery, which is a good thing for Philadelphia."

"But other people have to step up. If the score reaches more than 120 points, Young will not be able to score more than 50 points." Attacking is also the problem in Philadelphia.

The Golden State Warriors didn't care about conceding a goal and immediately launched a new wave of offense.

This time it was not Curry who handed the ball to Green, but Green who handed the ball to Curry.

"It's stuck." Curry, who was holding the ball at the top of the key, found that Bogut, who was supposed to come up to catch the ball, had not yet come up.

"Here we go." Bogut, who had finally gotten rid of Covington, finally came up to catch the ball.

After handing over the ball, Curry came to the right elbow area.

Watching the first few people running and Curry helping Iguodala hang up a fake screen, Young seemed to know where the play ended.

"Careful, Steph, 45 degrees" was another screen from Curry, causing Young to quickly remind McConnell to attack Curry.

In fact, the reminder is too late, McConnell has already hit Klay Thompson's screen

but

Luck was on Philadelphia's side, Curry faced a wide-open three-pointer

Missed the shot.

"45 degrees to the left." Young looked at Barnes from the bottom corner on the left. When he saw the landing point clearly, he lost Barnes and rushed toward the landing point with a meteoric stride.

The advantages of taking longer steps than taking smaller steps are revealed. Green, who also sees the landing point clearly, arrives at the position a little slower than Yang, who takes long steps.

"Bang"

The shoulder width, which is comparable to that of a 2.11-meter center, allowed Young to trap the small Green behind him.

"Push me? You underestimate my strength, and your wingspan is not long." Since there were no thugs around him, Yang could only talk a little bit.

Although the "fast break" was pushed, Young, who remained motionless, still grabbed the defensive rebound in his arms.

Thanks to the dark jersey he wore today, Young clearly spotted McKinney who had already run into the Warriors' half.

"cknie~~~~~" As the 76ers' home DJ shouted, the atmosphere at the Wells Fargo Center began to revive again.

"Timeout" After 8 minutes, there were only 3 points left in the blink of an eye, allowing Steve Kerr to call his timeout.

"After the timeout, we will temporarily switch defenders." On the way back to the bench, Young whispered a few words to McKinney.

…………

…………

"Concentrate, old guy." Green received the ball from the sideline and was hit with a knife in his face.

"Defensive foul No. 22." Because it happened under the referee's nose, the call was made very quickly.

"How many times has he committed a foul?" Brown didn't pay attention and specifically asked his assistant coach who was in charge of statistics.

"First time." The assistant coach who is responsible for this matter naturally understands

"Are you provoking me?"

"Yes, I committed a first-level flagrant foul, but you didn't." Although Young suffered a small loss during the first-half whistle, he can still receive a technical foul now.

"Separate, separate." If the referee is willing to separate, the two are naturally willing to separate.

pick and roll

Since Steve Kerr's return, the most lethal weapon has dropped directly from the Warriors' selection to the last place.

Curry-Green pick-and-roll

Without much advantage, the warrior finally showed his fangs.

Expand the defense to attack outside the three-point line

Covington's advantage in playing the 4th position is revealed here. The 76ers can pinch and switch when facing pick-and-rolls, and their adjustments are clear.

Force the ball out of Curry's hands

Covington did everything he could, and then it depends on what happens in the penalty area

Yang

Can you handle the rest of this?

After all, the wings cannot be recycled.

Looking at Bogut behind him and Green rushing towards the basket.

Yang knew what had happened and what was about to happen.

Seize and retreat, taking the first step to control the sky.

After relying on his position to ensure that the sky belonged to his territory, Young, who had his hands free, began to deal with Green, who was breaking through at high speed.

Throw or pass or find a shooter in the corner

As a setter, Green only has these three options.

After removing the alley-oops, there are only two

but

He is Draymond Green, not Stephen Curry, not LeBron James, not Kevin Durant

His guessing game is not up to par

"Pa"

As soon as Green's throw was thrown, a huge palm slapped his throw.

"Boom, boom, boom" as the ball rolled out of the sideline, Young, who landed on the ground, began to incite fans to cheer.
