I’m Really Playing Basketball

After losing Game 1 of the Western Conference finals against the Spurs, because Warriors coach Steve Kerr took the initiative to take the blame on himself, the team's other underperforming role players were protected to the greatest extent possible.

Although losing the first game of the Western Conference Finals is definitely uncomfortable, it is better than losing and being scolded again.

On May 21, 2013, after the Warriors and Spurs had a day off, G2 of the Western Conference finals continued to play at the Spurs' home.

In the last game, Kerr's attempt to speed up the game with a three-pointer failed because Klay and Beal felt cold.

And tonight, Kerr has no plans to change his style of play.

Because that's pretty much the only chance the Warriors have over the Spurs.

The Spurs are strong inside and out, experienced inside and out, especially their perimeter is very restrictive to the Warriors.

In the current Warriors team, it was Chen Xiao, Klay and Bill's outside splash trio who killed.

If only Chen Xiao opened the trio, even if Chen Xiao scored 49 points extremely efficiently in the last game, there would still be no way to win.

Therefore, if the Warriors want to win, at least, they need two of the three to play well, and the other at least can not hold back in order to beat the Spurs.

And this requires the Warriors to master their own game rhythm and bring the rhythm up.

When the rhythm is brought up, the Spurs can't be on the defensive, and Chen Xiao, Bill and Klay can make three-pointers on the fast break.

Although it is not easy to shoot in the fast break, it is at least easier than the positional defense of Leonard, Maizi and Rogo in a positional battle.

So, before the game started, Kerr shouted to all the Warriors players: "Rhythm! Rhythm! Rhythm!"

In order to be able to play the rhythm the Warriors want, the Warriors no longer stick to the Warriors' three perimeter players throwing three-pointers in this game.

As the team's two starting insiders, Lopez and Nongmei are also required to shoot more outside shots. It is best to shoot the ball after receiving the ball from the outside, and shoot decisively.

In fact, Lopez and Nongmei rarely shoot three-pointers.

Of course, both have good shooting ability.

In the last game, the two faced Duncan and Al Jefferson, a pair of extremely experienced and tough enough insiders, and they played a little cautiously.

It doesn't matter whether they can make too many shots, the important thing is that they need to create some inside threats so that Maizi, Rogo and Leonard can't keep staring outside.

This is not to reduce the pressure for Chen Xiao. No matter how Chen Xiao is adjusted, the pressure will not be less. The main purpose is to reduce the pressure for Bill and Klay.

You have to say whether Cole's style of play is successful.

Tonight, Kerr's style of play was indeed successful.

The Warriors lost 127-136 on the road.

But Bill and Clay did hit it off.

In this game, Bill scored 9 of 16, 0 of 5 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 21 points. This performance was not a little bit better than the previous game, although the three-pointer was still blocked by Roger. Dead, but Roger blocked his 3-pointer too hard, allowing him to get a long-range 2-pointer after a breakthrough step. Bill's shooting rate was very good tonight, and the rhythm has slowly picked up.

And Klay, this game is 8 of 14, 3 of 6 three-pointers, no free throws, the audience scored 19 points, Klay's efficiency in this game is also very high.

As for Chen Xiao, facing Leonard, Chen Xiao scored 18 of 34 points, 7 of 15 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored a game-high 46 points and 12 rebounds.

In this game, Chen Xiao was still quite bursting. Although Leonard's defense was one-on-one, everyone who watched the game knew that Leonard's one-on-one defense was already extremely good, but he still couldn't stop Chen Xiao's attack. .

Of course, there is one thing Leonard does very well, and that is his defense, which is really clean!

So that Chen Xiao had few free throws in these two games.

It is really incredible to be able to give such an excellent defensive effect when the defense is so clean.

However, although Cole's strategy was successful in this game, the three Splash Brothers scored 89 points in a game, but success was also Xiao He and Xiao He was defeated.

Thick eyebrows and big Lopez shot a lot in this game, but the shooting rate was not high enough.

Thick eyebrows made 5 of 15, while Lopez made 6 of 15. At the same time, the two had to play fast with the rhythm and made many mistakes. One made 6 mistakes and the other made 5 mistakes. The Warriors made mistakes in the whole game. 21, compared with 14 for the Spurs.

By the way, the backup power forward Ibaka performed very well in this game. Against the Spurs, he actually scored 4 of 5, scored 8 points, 6 rebounds and 3 blocks. You know, he played for 20 minutes.

Very efficient.

Dragic and Barnes are relatively uncomfortable with the Spurs' rotation. It can be said that they have already pulled two games.

In this game, the Warriors lost in the rotation.

The Spurs' rotation is, without a doubt, the league's first.

Parker, the Spurs' rotation with Ginobili, that's really strong!

Therefore, the Warriors are seen from top to bottom in this game.

When the Spurs are playing normally or very well, if the Warriors want to win, Chen Xiao, Bill and Klay will not do well. They also need Thick Eyebrows and Lopez to perform well.

In this game, if Lopez and Nongmei feel better than Ibaka, then the Warriors may win.

Well, this is really not easy.

By the way, in this game for the Spurs, Rogo made 13 of 26, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 32 points, Duncan made 6 of 15, 7 of 8 free throws, scored 19 points, Maizi 7 of 11, three-pointers 1 of 1, 3 of 5 free throws, scored 18 points, Leonard was 6 of 10, 2 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, scored 16 points.

And Ginobili, who came off the bench, scored 8 of 14 and 6 of 9 three-pointers. He played 27 minutes and scored 22 points!

It can be seen from the data that the Spurs' performance is very average and also extremely reliable.

In fact, this season, the Spurs are definitely the most consistent team in the entire league.

Whether it's Wheat, Leonard, Duncan, Rogo or Manu Ginobili, Parker, or even Al Jefferson, it's rare to get out of hand.

Of course, Ginobili must have exploded in this game, and his three-pointers are usually not so accurate.

Therefore, after this game, many people said that the Spurs are a team with a championship appearance.

In fact, it is.

Chen Xiao has been in the NBA for so many years, he can see that the Spurs this season are very strong!

Roggo and Leonard have stable mid-range singles, while Duncan and Al Jefferson have superb basket singles and basket shots.

The arrival of Maizi provided the Spurs with an undefended invincible single.

Perhaps the worst thing about the Spurs is their 3-pointer.

However, Gary Neal, Ginobili, and even Zhu Fangyu on the bench can provide very good three-point shooting ability.

As for Leonard and Roger in the starting lineup, despite not making so many shots, their hit rate is about 40%.

Not to mention the three-pointer that Maizi ignored the defense.

You can say that the Spurs don't have as good a three-pointer as the Warriors, but you can't say that the Spurs don't have a great three-pointer or that the three-pointer is the Spurs' weakness.

In the face of such a team that has no shortcomings, cooperates tacitly, and plays with you, it can prevent you from over 100, play fast with you, and score 130 points with you.

To be honest, it's actually quite desperate for the current Warriors.

Just like the Spurs that the Heat Big Three encountered in history.

And the current Spurs are stronger than the Spurs that swept the Heat by gentlemen in history, and they are much stronger.

After the reign of the defending champion Bobcats came to an end because of Chen Xiao's departure, the current NBA has truly entered a world of great competition.

The Spurs in the West, and the Heat and Bucks in the Eastern Conference finals, are now the biggest contenders for the title.

Of course, this series between the Heat and Bucks doesn't seem so easy compared to the Spurs' seemingly easy way to reach the Finals.

After the two teams played the first three games, the two teams went from 1 to 1 to 2 to 1, and the Bucks temporarily took the lead.

Losing the Spurs in two consecutive games on the road is indeed a big blow for the Warriors.

This kind of blow is not only due to the score, but also because the Spurs are so strong in these two games that people don't know how to play.

With such a team in front of you that can only be defeated by everyone, it is hard to say that you can maintain a calm mentality.

Especially when the majority of the team is still young.

On May 22, the Warriors returned to the first training session in Golden State. Facing the low morale at this time, the Warriors who were shrouded by sweeping clouds and might not even be able to win a game, Chen Xiao, after training, All the Warriors players said with a smile.

"In my career, I have experienced success and failure. I know that there is no person in this world who will never be defeated. Heroes are not always victorious, but never give up any ray of hope. I don't have any. The Spurs will never be undefeated, and we can find that fleeting opportunity as long as we do our best."

"Guys, I've never been swept in the playoffs in my career, no matter how strong or weak I'm on a team, and that's the secret of how I can do it and be the best I can be. , never give up, the result may not be the best, but it will definitely not make you regret."

After Chen Xiao's remarks, the Warriors players walked out a little from that extremely decadent mood.

Indeed, in the last game, the Spurs were able to beat the Warriors with fast speed, which really made them slow and scary.

Kerr said they could win as long as the tempo was in their hands.

But you see, the rhythm is in our hands, and we also lose, and it's the kind of loss that we can't fight back.

It's hard not to make these young people doubt life.

To be honest, facing these young warriors who doubt their lives, Kerr himself doesn't know how to adjust their mentality.

So, seeing Chen Xiao use his career experience to comfort these young people and comfort them, Kerr was relieved.

"If there is one NBA player with the most convincing career in the world, there is no doubt that it is him!"

"Our God!"

One of the most despised yellow people in the basketball world has become a GOd in the basketball world!

You can't accept such a person!

On May 25th, the Warriors and Spurs' G3 continued to play in Golden State. With a 0-2 deficit, if the Warriors don't want to sweep this series and fight for honor after this series, then this game can't lose.

It is worth mentioning that although the Warriors have fallen behind 0-2, the fans of the Warriors still gave the players of the Warriors extremely high courtesy when they returned to the home court. No matter who played, they all cheered.

Seriously, this group of young players on the Warriors needs this kind of support.

The support of the team boss and the support of the fans, all of which made them, who were once confused, once again full of fighting spirit.

And this is directly reflected on the court. The Warriors players who returned to the home court showed a strong confrontation intensity and hard work in the game.

"In the last game, the Warriors and the Spurs fought fast and attacked. In this game, the Warriors actually took the initiative to fight fast and fight for position!"

Don't say that Barkley was surprised at this time, even the Spurs were surprised.

Are you funny?

The first two games were played faster and faster, and the rhythm was always emphasized. In this game, it suddenly slowed down and fought against each other. What did you use for the first two games?

Shrink, double-team, confront, do the best you can, and leave what you can't do to God.

"We can't pray for victory, victory is not something we can decide, what we can decide is to be our own hero!"

Looking at the Warriors players on the court, Kerr was relieved on the sidelines.

Because, this is not what he asked before the game. Before the game, he still needs to be rhythm and fast.

He asked the players to continue to gamble.

The players, on the other hand, chose to bet on themselves.

You might be able to win a game too.

However, betting on yourself to win is a victory without regrets and regrets!

Can they do it?

At the end of the game, when the Warriors beat the Spurs 100-96 at home, Kerr excitedly rushed into the court with the Warriors' backup.

In this game, the Spurs made 5 of 21 three-pointers. When the Warriors players changed their style of play and hurriedly changed their style of play, the Spurs were not able to play a normal offensive level. The players of the Warriors took the initiative to attack and catch Live this fleeting opportunity!

Of course, in this slow game, Chen Xiao, who scored 13 of 24, 8 of 9 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 38 points and 14 rebounds in the whole game, is the one that the Warriors can do in this game. The real reason to win.

The Spurs are the better team in the field.

But there is no doubt that Chen Xiao is the best player in the history of the NBA in positional warfare!

When the Spurs' players were disrupted by the crazy Warriors, Chen Xiao's ability to score no matter what, made him seem to be the brightest star of the game.

Maybe Duncan, who scored 23 points in 9 of 20, and Maizi, who scored 20 in 7 of 17, can shine a little under Chen Xiao's shining.

By the way, in this game, Chen Xiao took the initiative to stare at Brother Luo and Manu Ginobili, and in 48 minutes, they stared at 11 of 36!

Therefore, at this time, Barkley and Kenny Smith are roaring about the greatness of these young warriors in this game, and everyone is watching this group of young warriors not giving up and not collapsing.

On the sidelines, the Spurs coach Popovich only saw the smiling Chinese who applauded his teammates.

"The real great is him!"
