The strongest unicorn in basketball

Chapter 270 Roll Call Tactics
On April 4, the fifth game between the Kings and the Warriors was officially held in Saskatchewan.

In the whole round of the series, the Kings were defeated by the Warriors in two consecutive games when they played two home games first. Now the momentum of the entire series has already come to the Warriors' side.

How many Kings fans went to Oakland back then, and now how many Warriors fans come to Saskatchewan.

As the so-called feng shui turns, if you come out to mess around, you always have to pay it back!
As a result, some discordant voices appeared in the originally uniform arena, from the Warriors fans, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the Kings fans.

Just as the two sides were vying for each other and provoking each other, the game officially started.

Both sides did not make too many adjustments in the lineup tonight, only the Warriors replaced the former O'Neal with Green.

However, such changes had been adjusted as early as the third game.

It can be said that the change of the Warriors was the turning point for the Warriors to buck the trend.

Therefore, Jackson has no reason to change the lineup back.

On the King's side, Giannis has not performed well in the past few games, but Brown has always let him start, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the fans.

Everyone is guessing, did Giannis block a bullet for Coach Brown?
In this regard, although Coach Brown didn't explain it, he felt uncomfortable!It's really not my idea!
Although coach Brown also admitted that Giannis has great potential, but this is the playoffs, what is needed is not illusory potential, but real strength!
Li Pu, however, stood by Giannis.

From Li Pu's point of view, Giannis had been the starter before, but now that he is replaced, it is easy to hit a young man's confidence.

As for worrying about affecting the result of the game, with me here, I will definitely not lose this game!
Now that Li Pu has already said these words, Coach Brown naturally has no further words.

In this way, Giannis' starting position was preserved. Although this move did not cause any ripples in the king's internal affairs, for Giannis, he was of course grateful to Dade, and he dared not do the same. Li Pu is now his reborn parents!

In this regard, Li Pu said: I treat you as a brother, but you actually want to be my son?
Just like that, with Li Pu succeeding in jumping the ball, the battle of Tianwang Mountain officially began!
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but Li Pu didn't give the ball to Bledsoe, but to Giannis.

So, Giannis didn't pass back, and dribbled the ball directly to the frontcourt.

The person who should have defended Giannis was Chasing Dream Green. However, when Green was about to go to defend Giannis, he saw Li Pu directly coming to the inside and facing David Lee.

If he left the inside line at this time, wouldn't David let Li Pu eat him alive?

As a result, Green took a step slower, but it was this step that gave Giannis a chance.

I saw Giannis dribbling the ball, suddenly accelerated, and rushed into the penalty area almost instantly.

When Green reacted and turned around to defend, it was too late, and he saw Giannis talking about his long arms and smashing the ball into the basket!
"Pretty!"

Coach Brown, who was standing with his chest around the field, immediately applauded loudly after seeing Giannis' goal!

The reason why Giannis did not perform well in the first two games is that he was completely restricted by Green on the court.

No points, no assists, and even Green couldn't get stuck in the slot. Such a Giannis staying on the court is completely a side effect!

Green can safely and boldly attack Li Pu.

But at the beginning of the game tonight, Giannis attacked very resolutely, which made Green hesitate whether he should attack Li Pu again like this?

Fortunately, on the offensive end, Iguodala, who played dead for several games, finally made a goal to tie the score.

To be honest, Iguodala is only 30 years old this year, and he should have been playing in his prime. However, after coming to the Warriors this season, all statistics have declined rapidly, almost the same as his rookie season.

Logically speaking, such a player should have been kicked out by the team a long time ago, but the Warriors' management undoubtedly trusts him, and his teammates also trust him, and his status is as stable as Mount Tai.

It is because he is the ballast stone of the Warriors, and at the most critical moment, he will work.

After scoring a goal, it was the Kings' turn to attack again.

However, what surprised the Warriors was that the Kings still held the ball with Giannis.

If you say that in the last round, Giannis held the ball to push forward for a fast break, then this round, it was obviously a positional battle, and their point guard didn't eat the ball, but it was replaced by Giannis holding the ball. What is this doing? ?
Just when the Warriors were in a daze, Giannis asked Bledsoe to run a pick-and-roll for him.

As a result, after the two picked and rolled, Curry was forced to switch to Giannis.

Watching Giannis hit Curry back, as long as the Warriors are not fools, they understand what the opponent wants to do. Isn't it just trying to consume Curry with roll call tactics?

At this time, Giannis, after a year of exercise, has gained a full 10kg in weight. If it were a year ago, I am afraid that his weight will not be much different from Curry, let alone back hitting.

Now, playing behind Giannis, even though Curry defended very seriously, he still retreated steadily, and soon retreated to the free throw line.

If Giannis has a mid-range shot, that's a good thing, and he can turn around and make a jumper.

But the problem is, he didn't!

Fortunately, Giannis has a way. He turned around and took only one step before collecting the ball and using his buggy body to directly choose a layup.

Seeing this, David Lee hurried forward to block it.

Giannis, on the other hand, found Li Pu accurately in the air, bypassed David, and passed the ball to Li Pu.

Faced with an unguarded empty basket, Li Pu was naturally not polite, dunked with both hands, and scored easily!
It has to be said that in this offensive round alone, the Kings' roll call tactic was successful, and the internal pass between Giannis and Li Pu was quite effective.

Subsequently, the Warriors was Iguodala again, and after breaking through, he gave the ball to David Lee, who made a steady mid-range shot and evened the score again.

How reliable David Lee is on the defensive end and how reliable he is on the offensive end. If he didn't have this offensive hand, how could he gain a foothold in the league and become an All-Star?
Then the Kings attacked again, this time it was still Giannis and Bledsoe's pick-and-roll, but Curry did not change this time, and Green quickly defended in front of Giannis, and it seemed that the roll call tactic failed.

But at this moment, Giannis made a pass back and passed the ball back to Bledsoe. Bledsoe made a fake move and quickly broke through Curry's defense.

After reaching the inside, because David Lee's footsteps were too slow, Bledsoe had already completed a layup before he could help defend.

6:4, the king's roll call tactics continue to work!
