I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 137 Free Man (Fourth Change)
Curry took a deep breath, then let the air out of his lungs heavily.

He could still feel his heart pounding in the din of the Staples Center.

Is it because of nervousness?It's time to play against the Lakers and Kobe again, the strongest team in the league and No.1.

No, of course not nervous, but excited, and he was extremely excited when the game was about to start.

He spit out the tray, chewed it, and put it in his mouth again.

He seldom did so, and it was unsightly and unhygienic.

Only when he is nervous and excited, Curry will subconsciously make this action.

The game is about to start. Coach Dunleavy made arrangements before the game. Curry is likely to face Kobe in this attack.

"The offensive end consumes Kobe, if you can do it. I don't expect you to guard him, but you must consume him offensively. Otherwise, there is no point in starting."

"If the Lakers don't let Kobe guard you, it's a failure of your offense, you know Stephen?"

Dunleavy's words echoed in his ears.

Originally, Dunleavy wanted Gordon to start.

Continue to use Curry as a substitute and lead the second team.

But in recent games, Curry has gradually secured his starting position.

He and Baron Davis' dual point guard pairing is very powerful.

Especially now that there is less Kaman on the inside, more possessions on the outside, and higher offensive requirements.

Score, must score, this is Curry's first priority.

The game started, Camby and Bynum jumped the ball.

The ball was transferred to Bryant's hands, and the Lakers took the lead in launching the offense.

As the kings of the Western Conference, the Lakers and Kobe have always maintained an active posture in their style of play.

The initiation of the triangle offense always seems to be slow, with players standing still and not moving much.

The ball is passed over short distances, often ending with one player one-on-one.

But as the game progresses, the triangle offense looks like a slow-start truck.

It will become more and more overwhelming later on.

At this point, the Lakers are in a state of slow start.

Bryant dribbles and feeds the ball 45 degrees inward to Bynum.

Bynum is deep, catches the ball and turns around with a left-handed hook.

The ball was not scored, and Camby defended the ball well.

Randolph gets the rebound.

The Clippers' opening offense is different from that of the Lakers.

It is also a low position for Randolph, and Randolph's position is much shallower.

Not as deep as Bynum.

Randolph suffers from his height, and if he is too deep to get the ball, he will also get a cap.

It's better to have a shallower position, it is easy to get the ball, and you can turn to the basket at any time for singles.

At the same time, the basket opened up space and gave teammates a chance to run and cut.

Curry started running.

This is a new tactical routine designed by Dunleavy for the team recently.

As a senior NBA coach, you basically need to know all tactics.

Although many coaches have good tactical systems, it doesn't mean that they don't know anything else, and they don't teach students in accordance with their aptitude.

Dunleavy played a fast offense in the Lakers, played a front-line battle in the Trail Blazers, played a short rotation in the Clippers, and made good use of the triangle offense.

Yes, the triangle offense is not only Phil Jackson's team, many other teams will.

With the development of media technology, there are no "secret tactics" in the NBA, and all tactics are public.

It just depends on how the coach combines, how to train, and how to use it.

Dunleavy's triangle offense obviously added something new, which is to give Curry the role of "free man".

The point of the triangle offense is to keep all players at a consistent distance.

This distance ensures that it is difficult for the opponent to pinch, and at the same time, the passing distance of one's own side is short enough to make it difficult to make mistakes.

That creates enough isolation opportunities for superstars to make a difference.

Once the Clippers let Randolph or Kaman alone in the game, they will use the idea of ​​​​a triangle attack locally.

This idea is currently used by almost every team with low-post monsters.

Including people have always praised Adelman, who is good at using the Princeton system. When the Rockets coached Yao Ming, he would also use the triangle offense to create singles opportunities for Yao Ming.

If Curry plays like this, he's a ball-feeding role in the system.

A feeder with a great [-]-point shot, that's all.

This is a great waste of Curry's ability.

Now that Kaman is gone, give Curry more freedom and let him run on the court.

Curry's running did not disturb the Lakers' defense, and the old fish Fisher was still responsible for defending Curry at the beginning.

Min Congda saw Curry with the bald head No. 2 on the sidelines, and closed his eyes to know the pill!
Sure enough, Curry found a gap at 45 degrees on the right through a cover.

Randolph, who was shallow, passed the ball to Curry easily.

Curry catches the ball and throws it for a three-pointer!

Another extremely quick shot, a three-pointer!

The Clippers started with Curry hitting the first goal, which was a goal of great tactical significance.

If the Lakers continue to use Fisher to stare at Curry, they will have a lot of outside pressure tonight.

"Phil Jackson, you are still handsome, why don't you learn your lesson?"

Min Congda opened his eyes, and turned on the complaint mode again.

Subsequently, Gasol received the ball in the low post and played Randolph with his back.

Turned hook hit.

With Gasol's Lakers, their strength has doubled, and they are no longer the Lakers in the opener.

But the Clippers are not the Clippers in the opener, and Curry's growth rate is amazing.

The second three-pointer came soon.

Receiving a pass from Baron Davis, a pick-and-roll from high Camby.

After having a gap, Curry directly made a three-pointer and hit it again!

With two consecutive three-pointers, Phil Jackson couldn't sit still.

He whistled toward the court, and Bryant gestured that he understood.

In the next round, Kobe broke through the middle and passed the ball to Bynum.

Bynum dunks with both hands!
The Clippers had two three-pointers and the Lakers had two two-pointers.

The Clippers are still ahead, this is the power of the three-pointer.

But at this time, Kobe began to defend Curry.

"That's right, that's right, Kobe is here to guard Curry."

Since experiencing six consecutive five wins and one loss, plus after defeating the Celtics at home.

Min Congda has completely admitted that he failed in the draft, and it was a huge mistake to blindly select Curry.

Maybe Curry isn't the best lottery pick, but he's definitely not the worst either.

That Thabeet has been completely abolished in the Timberwolves, and he can't even earn playing time.

And the Knicks' Jordan Hill, he didn't play the last time he was in New York.

And Timberwolves' Flynn...

"In future drafts, you should follow the Timberwolves in the draft! What scouting work do you want to do? Just steal information about the Timberwolves and you're done!"

Min Congda was regretting it, and Curry had already gotten rid of Kobe a little bit in defense.

Then catch the ball, a short feint into the basket, a limit layup with his left hand!
The general escaped Kobe's block, wiped the board and scored another 2 points!
Curry scored 8 points in a row at the start.

There was cheering at the scene, and the camera of the TV station was shown to the auditorium.

The fans wearing Curry's No. 30 jersey in the stands are no less than No. 24 and No. 8!
