Chapter 886 The tide is receding (

Durant was almost overwhelmed by the Nets, and where the Clippers couldn't see it, the atmosphere in the Nets locker room was also very depressing. In this peak duel, the Nets are fully prepared to face it, and try their best to do well in every link, but even so, the team is still only being bitten by the Clippers. One would think that the seemingly invincible and peaceful Nets team is also very afraid of Durant internally.

There is a saying that "it is difficult to fight the country, but it is even harder to defend the country". The Nets are in such a state of mind.

Perhaps, this is the true sense of meeting opponents at chess and meeting good talents.

During the halftime break, Stevens didn't say much about tactics, and instead fed the players a few bowls of chicken soup. Sometimes, players know how to present themselves in the game, and what they need is psychological adjustment. In this regard, Rivers of the Clippers is the best. This is an out-and-out chicken soup master. It's just that drinking too much chicken soup is also immune, and Rivers is indeed too weak in terms of on-the-spot scheduling.

At the beginning of the second half, the Clippers were very aggressive. At this time, the Nets needed someone to stand up. The Nets served, and the Clippers flanked the audience. The two former Nets players, Green and Fernandez, stepped forward to flank Curry very tacitly. Curry's back pass was also seen through by Dragic, and he directly completed the steal. Fortunately, George sent a pegboard hat from behind, quickly regained the ball, and then completed the ball before the Clippers pinched. The Nets formed a 3-on-2 situation in the frontcourt, and were caught Robertson, who was short, chose to rush to the basket and was stopped by Durant for a foul.

The Clippers' defensive strategy this round was also very successful. The sudden frontcourt attack has forced Curry to make a pass error.

The Nets were chasing points in this period. On the surface, the problem appeared on the defensive end, but they missed two consecutive rounds of offense because Robertson's offensive threat was too low. Stevens had no choice but to make substitution adjustments. Replaced Robertson with veteran Joe Johnson. In this way, while adding a scoring point, Joe Johnson can also help organize the offense.

To a certain extent, this will affect the defense of the Nets, and it will also affect the bonding of the team's bench lineup. However, in this critical game, both sides will increase the playing time of the main lineup, shorten the rotation, and maximize the team's strength. fighting power.

Looking back, Leonard successfully interfered with the opponent's shot when defending Durant's singles, forcing Durant to hit the iron. When George grabbed a rebound, Green slapped him in the face, and then covered his face and fell down. land.

Green immediately raised his hand to express his surprise. Most of the members of the Nets team were his former comrades-in-arms.
