Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 26 The game I really want to win

At halftime, Stevens felt that this was not the way to go.

On the surface, the team has slightly taken the initiative on the scene, leading by 5 points so far. However, the pace of the game is indeed a more comfortable pace for the Knicks.

George, who played offensively, involuntarily put more energy into the offense. His 18 points in the half were more than his highest score in the past four games, which shows how cool he played today. On the defensive end, Gallinari has currently scored 4 3-pointers and scored 12 points, which is also the best half of his season.

The Nets don't have, at least not yet, the capital to play against the Knicks' rhythm.

"In the second half, we have to make changes."

After a little thought, Stevens still made an arrangement.

"In the second half, Livingston, George, Pavlovic, Anderson and Lopez started." Stevens looked at these five people and said solemnly: "Sean, you have to slow down the rhythm of the game." , don’t keep running with the other party!”

"Paul, you may be under the greatest pressure next. Sean, Alexander may not be able to keep up on the defensive end. When you are optimistic about Gallinari, you have to take into account the task of defending the inside."

For any player, the favorite way of playing is without a doubt the mercury-like offense in the first half, especially when the team is still in the lead. George was a little puzzled by the change Stevens was actively pursuing, but he still Nodded, glad to accept.

As a rookie, he has received more attention in the team than Lopez, the team leader. George knows that Stevens has cultivated and supported him, and he unconditionally obeys his requirements.

Under normal circumstances, after the halftime break, the main players get a certain amount of rest and recover their physical fitness, and they will play at the beginning of the third quarter to continue to grab points.

The bench lineup usually starts to appear in the second half of the third quarter.

However, Stevens adjusted the starting roster for the second half at the beginning of the third season, and this roster also made D'Antoni a little uncomfortable.

Livingston, Pavlovich, Anderson, Lopez, these people are not strong in running ability, and they are more players who play according to tactics in positional battles. The Nets are determined to make the game The tempo is down.

The Nets took the lead in attacking. After a pick-and-roll by Livingston and Anderson, they attracted Stoudemire's attention and promptly distributed the ball to Lopez inside. Soft hands, failed to score the ball.

After Chandler got the rebound, he immediately wanted to play a fast break. However, at this time, the four players of the Nets had returned to their own half, and Lopez was also trying to run back.

In this case, Chandler can only pass the ball to Felton first and slowly organize the attack.

In this round of offense, Stoudemire made a strong inside attack, resulting in Anderson's foul, which ended with two free throws and one hit.

Felton is not Nash after all, and Stoudemire has proved his ability in the Knicks after leaving Nash, but it is an indisputable fact that scoring is more laborious than with Nash. Compared with Nash before, Stoudemire has to bear more now. And Nash, who stayed in Phoenix, can still send beautiful assists for Warrick and Lopez, but it is also a helpless reality that the Suns, who have lost their main attack point, have completely fallen into a dying stage.

The pain of a broken leg took away Livingston's explosive power, but the pure organization ability that was already pure in his debut has become more lean at this age. Lopez's off-ball pick-and-roll created a breakthrough for Pavlovic's counterrunning. Opportunity, the Livingston man got the ball, and Pavlovich made a mid-range hit to complete the score.

The veteran who was regarded as a spicy chicken contract by the Timberwolves and was thrown to the Nets was the hardest-working person in the Nets' training this past summer. With his own efforts, he overwhelmed Terrence Williams and Bob Compared with Simmons, he got some playing time and can also make his own contribution to the team.

Compared with the open and close offense of the two sides in the first two quarters, the rhythm of the third quarter was a bit quiet. Although the Nets forcibly slowed down the rhythm of the game, D'Antoni's offensive master's accomplishments are not just bombardment. Taking advantage of the slow movement of the Nets players except for George, they cut air and played 6 in reverse. Although George has tried his best to help defend, he is not a big spider like Garnett after all, and he is not as good as James. With a physique of steel and steel, and the athletic ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, it is normal for him to be weak.

82;81, in this quarter of the game, the Knicks, who seemed to have been dragged into the quagmire, gained by 4 points. Stevens' tactic doesn't seem to be working that well. This also fully illustrates the point that not all things that should be done in theory can be successful.

Sitting on the bench, gulping down drinks to replenish energy, Stoudemire realized that his physical strength had not fully recovered. In this game, he had taken on a bit too much.

On the offensive end, he has to constantly wrestle with Lopez, Baynes, and Anderson, and attack again and again. On the defensive end, the Nets also pay great attention to the impact on him.

War of attrition? Stoudemire has never been afraid. Compared with the decisive battle against the Spurs in the Suns playoffs that year, the intensity of the matchup against Duncan, a mere Nets, is nothing. . . . . ?

Sitting on the bench, Stoudemire watched the matchup of the rotation, and the Nets slowly gained the lead again. In the team's rotation, except for Tony Douglas and Russian center Mozgov who can make positive contributions, the Knicks' other players are not better than the Nets last season. In the past two seasons, in order to eliminate the influence of Thomas' random signing of second-rate stars and make room to grab people in the summer of 2010, the Knicks sent away so many people that the team's lineup is now a bit weak.

When the score ratio of the two sides in the fourth quarter was 12:4, and the Nets widened the point difference to 9 points, D'Antoni couldn't sit still, so he could only call a timeout, and then replaced the team's only stable scoring Point Stoudemire to stabilize the situation.

After the timeout ended, Anthony Randolph kicked off the ball carelessly. Immediately afterwards, Danny Green and Bledsoe launched a flank attack on Felton. Without George on the court, this round of flank attack was not considered a success. Leton jumped up and handed the ball to the nearest Randolph, Fields ran back to the half court in time to respond, and Randolph split the ball in time, which was considered to have broken the Nets' trick again, but the Knicks also Failed to win the chance to play more and less in the half.

The danger is everywhere, and this word is more appropriate to describe Felton's performance today. The Nets double-teamed four times in the audience, and D'Antoni's heartbeat accelerated every time. If we don't design tactics to cover up this shortcoming after today's game, I'm afraid some teams will imitate it in the future.

With one minute and fifty seconds left in the game, the score gap was maintained at 5 points. The Nets had the ball and it seemed that victory was in sight. Paul George bent over and lowered his body to dribble, controlled the rhythm of the game, and everything was under control.

"Beep!" A whistle sounded, and George still didn't understand what had happened. In the penalty area, Gallinari fell to the ground, and Bledsoe stood in front of him, raising his hands in a gesture of innocence.

"Offensive foul!" The referee gestured, and the audience immediately booed. What about letting the players decide the game at the last moment?

Bledsoe hurriedly ran to the referee to explain, and just blurted out a few words, he was pulled away by Lopez and hugged aside.

The Nets had five fouls in this quarter. Gallinari made two free throws and then narrowed the point difference to three points. The suspense of the game returned.
