The Rest, Only Noise: Chapter 1002 God of 3 points
Only in this era when the salary cap system is not perfect, teams like the Knicks and the Trail Blazers can form a lineup that future fans can hardly imagine.
Riley's desperate move had the desired effect.
Jordan's pick-and-roll with Clifford Robinson was like a poor man's Cedou pick-and-roll.
In terms of the three-point threat with the ball, these two people are naturally incomparable with Kudu, but Jordan has a breakthrough threat that is far stronger than Kudu, and he also has passing vision and excellent passing skills.
Robinson is more like Rasheed Wallace than Durant, and his ability to shoot three-pointers from any angle creates the best offensive conditions for Jordan.
And that's just one of the Blazers' offensive moves.
They also have several offensive moves.
For example, the free throw line is cleared, and Jordan is singled out with the ball;
Another example is that the players stretched out from all sides, and Barkley received the ball from the wing and singled it out.
One-on-one, one of the oldest offensive methods on the basketball court, is despised by professional coaches and regarded as the worst offensive method.
But when the intensity of the competition reaches the limit, heads-up is the best way to solve the problem.
Many players can enjoy themselves in a perfect offensive system, and scoring 30 points in a single game is like cutting melons and vegetables.
But the system is not a panacea, and there will always be times when it fails.
When the team's bonus disappears, the beneficiaries of these systems often disappear on the court together.
Because at that time, enough hard power was needed to attack and score when the system didn't work.
The Blazers happen to have two of the five most aggressive singles among active players.
The efforts of Jordan and Barkley reminded Louis of last year's finals.
I saw that the two men went on the offensive for a while, and the point difference caught up to 9 points.
Then, Wilson made a three-pointer and responded with a goal.
Kemp fired from the outside and returned a goal.
Ewing seized the offensive rebound to make up the dunk, and then pulled the point difference to 16 points.
So Riley called another timeout.
He replaced Sabonis. Although the Lithuanian's outside shooting and inside presence can relieve the pressure brought by Ewing, in this situation, he can't help much.
Anthony Mason is replacing Sabonis.
Riley identified two sets of play.
One set is that Jordan and various teammates play pick-and-roll offense with the ball to create various changes.
The other set is that when Barkley catches the ball from the left and right wings of the free throw line, his teammates must clear the space for him and create a one-on-one opportunity for him.
At this stage of the Blazers' brilliant five-star formation, Riley still trusts the Flying Pigs the most.
Without Sabonis, Ewing alone is enough to wipe out the inside, so Louis replaced Rodman.
Rodman can provide the world's best defense, switching, double-teaming, and rebounding on the court, but his offensive ability is always a hole, and his teammates usually help fill it. Now the Blazers have figured it out. Since the Knicks' defense The system is indestructible, so be sensible and don't go head-to-head.
Whether it's Jordan's pick-and-roll offense or Barkley's clear-space ball-handling, it's a strategy to avoid a more difficult situation.
Louie replaced Rodman with Reggie Miller.
In this way, the Knicks suddenly had two players with a three-point shooting rate of 40%, and one of them was close to 40% (Wilson).
In terms of shooter quality, the Knicks are unparalleled in the world.
Because their three-point shooting rate is daunting, as long as Ewing or Kemp attacks with the ball, it will be difficult for the Blazers' defense to put down the outside shooters to double-team.
Especially Ewing.
Without Sabonis, wouldn't this insider become his back garden?
The Knicks have no solution for three-pointers outside, Ewing has no solution for offense and defense inside, Jordan has no solution for pick-and-roll offense with the ball, and Barkley has no solution for singles with the ball.
The Knicks and the Blazers each have their own unsolvable places, which is what happens when the talent piles up to the extreme.
Moreover, the endogenous logic of these four styles of play is consistent.
The most comprehensive talent on the field is on the Blazers side (Jordan), the second talent is on the Knicks side (Ewing), and the remaining two are evenly matched.
However, Miller and Stevens' three-point shooting rate is too appalling.
The existence of Ewing made the Blazers have to make a choice.
This is a repeat of last year's Game 7 of the Finals. No one inside could guard against Ewing. What should we do? If you let him go, Ewing will dominate the rebounds while shooting 80% of his shots. Double-teaming, Miller and Stevens each shot 40% of the three-pointers are terrible.
Although Jordan can overwhelm the Knicks on the offensive end, regardless of Jordan or Barkley, the Knicks can at least find players to match them.
And Ewing became a bug on the court.
Without Sabonis, it's a dish for the Blazers to go up and defend.
80% shooting at the basket and 40% three-point shooting, how to choose?
"They wouldn't really dare to let us shoot threes, would they?"
Louis just had this question, and the Blazers let him know: We really dare!
From the moment they gave Stevens the corner 3 and Miller the left wing 3, Louie knew the lesson the Blazers had learned from last year's Finals was that they wouldn't learn any.
When the accuracy reaches a certain level, three-pointers can be scored for nothing.
"Ahem~ I suddenly have a bold idea."
Tomjanovich looked at Louis suspiciously.
"I don't recommend you in the finals..."
"I just want to compare the accuracy of the open three-pointer with Coach Riley."
After all, Louis walked to the sidelines and reminded the players, "Show Mickey and Fatty to death, let them shoot threes if they want!"
The battle between the Knicks and the Trail Blazers is a duel of basketball talent.
But basketball is a team sport after all, individual talent can indeed affect the outcome of the game, but if you want to limit the performance of these talented people, it is not difficult.
Especially when Louie's team has a high average talent.
The Blazers used double-teams to force Ewing to pass the ball, and the Knicks can also use reckless double-teams to force Jordan and Barkley to pass the ball.
In this way, Jerome Cosey and Clifford Robinson will be happy, and they will get a good shot.
Not counting the regular season, Cauchy shot 35 percent from three in the playoffs and Robinson 34 percent.
For the Knicks, Miller and Stevens made 41% and 43% of their three-pointers respectively, ranking second and third. The Jazz's core guard Mark Price ranked first with 45%. % of the three-pointers hit 1.4 three-pointers per game.
The invincible Jordan, Barkley, Wilson, and Ewing suddenly couldn't dominate the game.
They were both double-teamed and had to play.
When Riley saw that the Knicks were so brutal that they didn't treat the Blazers' role players as human beings, he was angry.
"Damn littlelu! Does he really think their open threes must be better than ours?"
It's normal for Riley to be angry.
Coaching details are the way professional coaches talk on the court.
The Blazers chose to give up the outside line and then double-team Ewing. This was a last resort. Two bottles of poison must be drunk.
Not so with the Knicks.
It is true that the offense of Jordan and Barkley cannot be defended in a one-on-one situation, but they still have many options to try, such as this kind of approach of not leaving any retreat, double-teaming, and completely ignoring the outside line, just like Liushen Pretending to be as confident as playing the opposite three-piece suit.
It is impossible for us to lose by three points than the open.
That's Louie's subtext.
As a result, Miller and Stevens did not let him down.
Stevens made 1 of 2 three-pointers from the outside.
The Blazers' outside line totaled 2 of 6.
However, Miller seemed to be on the hook, shooting 3 of 4 three-pointers, directly breaking the balance, allowing the Knicks to lead again to 18 points, and also making Riley request a timeout like a frightened bird.
"In the past year, there has been a saying that if the Knicks' two Reggies could play healthy in last year's Finals, the series might end within five games."
As a famous Knicks blower, Brown said triumphantly, "Now I think this statement is not groundless, Reggie Miller is simply a three-pointer!"
Hubie Brown didn't know it, but because of a comment he made by chance, Miller got a cool nickname.
The God of Three Points—and Game 3 of the 1993 Finals was the first game in which Miller established the "God of Three Points".
At this moment when the cores of both sides are double-teamed, and the comparison is the ability of the supporting players to grasp the moment, Miller's three-point arrow is the flame from hell, which has become the biggest variable in this game.
"Reggie, how are you feeling?" Louie asked.
Panting heavily, Miller said emotionally, "If those **** in Portland give me a **** spot, I'll hit 20 three-pointers tonight!"
"Since you have this confidence, then continue to vote!" Louis glanced at Wilson, "Benj, come down and rest."
Replacing Wilson, another dangerous three-point shooter, Mohammad Rauf.
Like Miller, this is a shooter that the Blazers fear.
It's just that he became famous earlier than Miller.
In last year's Finals, Rauf, then Chris Jackson, shot the ambitious Blazers with a perfect performance.
Back from the timeout, Riley bowed to reality and returned Sabonis.
However, ~www.mtlnovel.com~ switching back to Sabonis can solve the urgent need of the inside line, but the former's movement speed will also become a key target of the Knicks.
Rauf called Sabonis when he came up, and Ewing came out to pick and roll.
Sabonis stayed put, and the Blazers asked Robinson to follow him out. As a result, Kemp performed a second pick-and-roll nearby.
This time, no one can wipe his **** for Sabonis.
Rauf pulled up directly from a distance of a few meters, and made a three-pointer, as bright as moonlight.
"Shua!"
This is the first time the Knicks have led the Blazers by 20 points in this year's Finals.
"Does anyone still believe that the Blazers can fight back?" Brown said proudly, "Anyway, I don't believe it."
