Chapter 681 Popovich's obsession! 【Subscription】
Popovich hesitated, he looked at the statistics, he looked at the difference between the two sides, he was hesitant.
Everything really went according to Popovich's plan. Lin Long didn't get into the paint. He was making the most difficult mid-to-long-range shots from the high post. The rest of the Celtics really didn't get much. Lots of chances and no points.
Even the Spurs themselves, they seized the opportunity and made almost all chance balls, and they also kept hitting many difficult fairy balls.
Tonight's Spurs are absolutely superb on offense!
But even so, even if everything went as Popovich planned, the Spurs - still trailed by 12 points!
My players are playing almost perfectly, and they are still so far behind. If someone on the Spurs has a bad feel and misses a few chances...
Popovich didn't dare to think about it, Lin Long's performance tonight was really scary.
He's really considering now whether to switch to a defensive mode and use a regular approach to Lin Long to make his scoring less exaggerated.
But when Popovich looked up and saw that there was no defensive pressure, Duncan, Robinson, Peja and others who had scored points repeatedly, he hesitated again.
If you change your defensive strategy, will it also affect your player's feel and state?
What to do!
Just as Popovich was hesitating, Lin Long on the court had scored again, as if he had had enough of the long 2 points from the high post, and Lin Long shot a 3-pointer at each of the left and right 45-degree angles, and Hit all!
If it weren't for Peja, who was in a state of magic tonight, he also responded in the left and right corners and hit 3 points in a row, the score would have gone to 20 points again.
Lin Long looked at Peja, who made consecutive 3-pointers, and directly pulled over Jackson and said, "You go to defend Bruce! Peja is 10 cm taller than you and has a longer wingspan than you. To deal with a shooter like him, I have to be taller and longer than him! Go, if you can't deal with Bruce, it's really a no-brainer!"
Lin Long couldn't help Jackson say try two more rounds, and directly threw Jackson to Bowen, he wanted to defend Peja himself!
Tonight's Peja is definitely worthy of the title of the top perimeter attacker on a championship-level team!
In less than halftime, he has hit 5 3-pointers, and also rushed to the basket twice, plus free throws and mid-range shots. Tonight's Peja made 10 of 15 shots in the half. 27 points and 4 rebounds! His first trip to the Finals, so far, is absolutely perfect!
Unfortunately, Lin Long came to guard him.
Lin Long immediately stopped Peja and said: "Man, you worked hard in the first half, then you can rest well!"
"What?" Peja said with an unhappy face: "Do you think you are the only one who can score points? Maybe I can't stop you, but you definitely don't want to stop me!"
Peja has absolute confidence in his positioning and shooting! Even Lin Long, he does not think that Lin Long can handle his own off-ball play, Peja kept moving his feet, looking for cover , looking for opportunities, kept and Duncan, Robinson doing pick-and-roll screening with.
In the end, Peja ran all the way to the bottom corner on the right side of the court with his unrestrained walking position, reached out to find Cassell for a basketball, and then, without even thinking, completed a smooth half-turn at the moment of catching the ball. , take off and shoot directly!
"This ball is there!" The moment Peja shot, it felt perfect, this ball, absolutely no problem!
But at the moment Peja shot, Lin Long's figure suddenly appeared in front of him!
・・・・For flowers・・・
Not only did he appear, but he jumped up directly, his long arms stretched toward the sky, and he happened to have an extremely close contact with the basketball that Peja threw!
"There is your sister, there is!
Lin Long shouted, the basketball was picked up by him directly in the air!
After landing, Lin Long didn't even look at Peja, he launched a counterattack, and rushed towards the front court!
Peja stood on the spot with an unbelievable look, and had no intention of participating in the defense at all.
"Impossible! It's impossible! I should definitely get rid of him! Tim's cover couldn't have allowed him to get out so easily! It's impossible!"
It's a pity that Peja's exclamations and fears did not get anyone's response. Lin Long in the frontcourt had rushed all the way to the Spurs' 3-point line. This time, he still did not choose to break through, as if the Spurs' 3-point line There is gold outside the line, Lin Long makes an emergency stop again, collects the ball, takes off, and shoots!
"Shh!"
It was another clean and crisp sound, Lin Long hit 3 points again, one offense and one defense, 3 points from one block, Lin Long inside and outside, this wave is 6 points in the account!
"MVP! MVP! MVP!"
"MVP! MVP! MVP!"
The fans in the audience couldn't bear it any longer, and they roared to their heart's content, celebrating Lin Long's scoring again!
Lin Long's performance tonight was like a god coming!
At this moment, all the fans believed that if Jesus had a skin color, it must be yellow!
Since Lin Long turned around and started to defend Peja, he performed well in the first 18 minutes, and Peja, who almost formed a confrontation with Lin Long, went directly invisible!
He didn't score 1 point in the remaining 4 minutes of the second quarter! 3 shots, all strikes!
In a blink of an eye, he went from the brightest scorer on the entire Spurs team to the most retarded blacksmith! Big.
