The Warriors are 3-0 Nuggets, do you think the Nuggets still have a play?
Looking back at Malone's tactical adjustments, Malone made very good adjustments in the first half of G3, using a three-guard lineup to treat the Warriors' five small; but in the second half, some stubborn Malone still sent three lineups, and finally led to loss, Malone has an unshirkable responsibility! Zhuge Malone has become a "one-by-one malone". Are Jeff Green and Jamey Green really that good?
Kerr is clearly superior to Malone's tactics, and the Nuggets were swept almost unexpectedly.
Presumably everyone knows that Curry played the substitute thing, which is very surprising, the previous game is still forgivable, After all, Curry has just returned from injury and needs to play as a substitute to find a state.
But in the last two games, Curry continued to be Poole's substitute. Curry has returned from injury and is already 100% in shape! Obviously, continuing to play as a substitute is a matter of pattern, and no super giant sacrifices like Curry!
The topic returns to the Nets, is Irving willing to play the bench?
At the moment the Nets are 2-0 behind the Celtics, and we can clearly see that the Nets are now short of staying power! KD's physical strength was greatly affected by the problem of the No. 5 position, and the offensive efficiency was also greatly reduced.
It's clear that the team needs KD to play in the No. 4 slot, and the team needs a traditional point guard who can start and pass the ball.
Dragic plays the starter, Irving plays the bench, is Irving willing?
Obviously, as far as Irving's pattern is concerned, it is difficult to accept!
In the 2016 Cavaliers' game against the Blazers, Love was in a state of flux in the first quarter, and with more than a minute left in the first quarter, he had already shot 11 of 14 and 8 of 10 from three points, scoring 34 points, three points away from Clyde's record of 37 points in a single quarter. Then Owen held the ball, and when Lefour felt great, he completed the next two attacks, resulting in Lefu not having the opportunity to break Clay's record!
Looking back at Irving's career, he is a very good master!
Before there was a level said, after Ramadan, the first two seasons refused to play, this season because of the vaccine thing is boiling! In fact, Irving and KD are a bit careful and want to drive Harden away! They think that with harden's current state, they can't lead the team to win the championship, so they made this scene!
At the important juncture of the G2 game, Irving left the arena and completed the hunger, which made everyone laugh!
Irving is indeed not a homemaker who can worry about it, and there are 39 points in the previous game; in the last game, there is only a performance of 4 of 13 shots, which is the state of Celtics single defense!
The overall feeling is that Irving G2 is sleepwalking, and Irving who has eaten snacks is not in as good physical condition as Jaylen Brown, who is also in Ramadan. Jaylen Brown scored 22 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists on 9-of-18 shooting on the offensive end, and the defensive end and Tatum cooperated, so that KD only shot 4 of 17, and the worst performance of his career in the second half of 10 shots, giving people a feeling of energy!
In the next game, we can almost equally see Tatum and Jaylen Brown wrapping up KD's various scenes, making KD play very badly. If the next game is lost, 0-3 behind, even if G4 Simmons returns, the Nets will still be difficult to turn over.
So, the key is in G3!
If Irving can be as humble as Curry, not play a big card, and come to the bench position. I believe dragic + Curry Jr. + Bruce Brown + KD + Drummond, such a lineup is definitely more fluent in attack! Dragic's share of the ball is better than Irving's and a master of blocking, which KD and Drummond will benefit!
With a little more playing time, Nicholas Clarkston will have a better play! This undoubtedly saves KD a lot of physical strength.
If the Nets G3 can win, Simmons G4 returns, and Simmons comes to the starting center position to supplement the team's impact and defense. And with Irving coming off the bench, I'm sure the Nets will win more easily.
If the score comes to a 2-2 draw, with the existing lineup advantage, I believe the Nets will continue to win and complete the turnaround 4-2!
The point is, is Irving willing to play as a substitute? Can Irving have a pattern like Curry? In fact, Irving's role in playing the starter wasted Irving's singles ability, and because Irving played the start, the Nets' offense was more stagnant. On the bench, not only will there be a good sixth person, but there will be better chemistry at the start!
Would Nash do what Cole would? Obviously, it depends on Nash's way of thinking. If there is almost no room for maneuver like Malone, I think it is expected to be swept by the Celtics, not to mention the Nets championship!
