Quiet and easy to ink

森林狼 VS 独行侠 G1

Dongzi and Owen played a match-level match at the confirmation level. When it comes to the league's strongest ball-handling duo, Durant and Booker can still compete with Eastern Europe. But when it comes to the league's strongest ball-handling and pick-and-roll duo, or rather, the ball-handling duo, Doncic and Irving can't see their opponents.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Doncic blocked and hit Jaden three in a row to help the Mavericks establish an advantage. In the last 1 minute, Kidd took a timeout, the ATO was simple and rough, Doncic once again singled Jaden, and the Mavericks held a four-point lead, which crushed the Timberwolves. Jaden's defense of Doncic is good in the Timberwolves, and Huazi and Walker can't watch it.

Irving's unparalleled dribbling skills were the second wave of impact, and the intensity of the Timberwolves' confrontation could not find the focus point, and Irving's advancing speed and near-basket feel cleverly bypassed the long man forest. Owen put on a perfect performance that took care of productivity, and successfully slapped the author's anxiety about his productivity.

Thinking back to Booker's submissiveness and Murray's struggle, I have to apologize to Eastern Europe, and the decision to put Dongzi and Booker and Irving and Murray in the same gear last year was obviously stupid enough. Of course, if the next Eastern European game is pulled, maybe I will have to apologize to Booker and Murray. Basketball is probably a farce of repeated slaps in the face and apologies, and it is appropriate to call it a "turn-based game".

The variables may not be here in Eastern Europe either, and their form will be up and down, but what they can do is roughly on the table in a series. The duo's ability to solve hard is stronger than Huazi's, and they frequently play hard solutions to carry the production, which is a necessary plot for the Mavericks to win - at least until the Timberwolves change their defensive strategy.

The point is, the Timberwolves are more unpredictable.

In the last round of the series between the wolves and the Nuggets, G1 roughly went back and forth, and then the wolf blood abused 2 games, the Nuggets abused 3 games, and the tie-break was the first half of the Nuggets' blood abuse, and the wolf blood abused the second half. The wolf digging is basically a grandfather and grandson conjugated body, repeatedly exchanging generations and beating each other, and it is difficult to solve the problem of missing alternate points.

The upper and lower limits of the wolf and the hero may not fluctuate so much, but the room for the wolf to make mistakes is still wide. The playoffs have gone deep into the division finals, and the Timberwolves will still have periods when Huazi and Towns are not available, as well as periods when Gobert and Lee Kyle are both on the court. In the first half, Gobert only played 15 minutes, which of course had objective factors that led to the inability to replace people, but Finch did not think that Gobert was indispensable, which was the norm in the first two rounds. In the second half, Gobert suddenly increased to 22 and a half minutes, and I don't know if it was a compensatory use or if he realized the seriousness of the situation. As for Downs, he played only 17 minutes in the second half, and he was battling PJ Washington before regaining flare's covering three-pointers, and he didn't have the style of a tie-break misplaced artifact.

The wolf's employment is as you like, with the natural style, the starting style is laissez-faire, which is dazzling.

It sounds strange that a team with the best sixth man and considered good depth in the regular season can only beat the Suns in the playoffs with a vacuum of bench strength, but it is the truth. If the opposing lineup has a lineup such as:

Insufficient offensive development, chaotic organization, constipation in space, weak alignment or basket protection, poor defensive discipline, main attacker hand pulling, role players overstepping their authority, coaches are ineffective, etc., some of the above negative keywords.

Then, the wolf will rely on the talent of explosion and the ultimate defensive energy to run over it, and there will be no scum left of the opponent who explodes.

But if the opponent doesn't mess up, then the Wolves may have to mess up first - this is the script for the Nuggets to lose, and this game also has a lot of flavor.

The fears of the foresight still happened, and the wolves themselves did make mistakes. Kidd unsurprisingly misplaced in the transition, with Lively defending Lee Kyle and Doncic defending Reed. It's just a matchup when certain lineups are matched, and the actual situation is more confusing, but the basic principle of the Heroes is clear, no matter who guards Li Kaier, he will let him go to protect the basket, and he is not afraid to use small players against Reed.

This is not the first time the wolf has encountered this kind of situation, and the way to deal with it is similar to the previous round - there is no response, and it depends more on the decision-making on the spot. Lee Kaier performed well in the first half, in addition to feeling online, but also because he did participate in some tactics, being able to play as a mid-point and score goals in the middle distance. However, the Timberwolves did not continue the execution of effective play, and they launched offense in different ways, and the effect would be much worse.

In the first half, the Wolves mainly relied on Jayden and Lee Kaier to score points. This approach certainly responds to the Mavericks' defensive choices, but it is not very maintainable and cannot be used as the main body after all (Thunder: Wait, what did we say about the Mavericks in the last round). In the second half, during the period when Kyle Lee played with Gobert, the Wolves' offense completely stalled. Compared to the Nuggets, the Mavericks' basket protection is undoubtedly better, and the Wolves must make themselves the side that can defend and counterattack with this combination of double non-space points, but their defense in this game did not do it.

The Wolves need to rethink their use of Lee Kyle, and Walker needs to get back into shape. Otherwise, the situation of them losing the connecting section will continue.

Reed, the best sixth man and most of the time had a counterpoint advantage, was not activated until the end of the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth quarter. Xia is missing a big forward, and the connection section can't be perfect in the alignment, but the wolf still helps solve it. It is indeed difficult for Reed to sit in the low post, but he still has the strength of the basket offense, his fixed-point shooting ability is strong, and after rushing up, with a strong size advantage, it will be difficult for the assistant defense to deal with. The first two rounds of the series also proved that Reed was a threat at the top of the arc or on the weak side of the 45° catch, which should be a point that the Wolves need to find more in the transition.

In the frontcourt, there are only Downs and Reed, and there is no Gobert and Lee Kaier, the wolf's space is said to be full (Jaden is three-point online, and the hero does not dare to use the center to defend him), and the Mavericks are also Downs and Reed in the 4/5 position, but at this time, there is a problem of low quality of passing and receiving, and Huazi's mistake is very hurt.

Here's what the Wolves' transition offense basically looks like:

The "Chapter" can only be provided by Conley and Li Kaier, but Li Kaier does not provide space, so Conley went down and used Li for constipation, not for Li Chaos;

The change of formation is mainly provided by Huazi, Huazi is down, and Conley is like an old man walking in the early morning walking in the community, and he can't find a teammate who can't find a chance after a few laps. At this time, the coaching staff didn't even leave Downs on the floor.

As for the starting stage, the effect of the chivalrous side piling up people is obvious, and the delay to Huazi and the pinching attack on the low position of Downs make the wolf uncomfortable. The Wolves relied on Jayden in the first half, and finally remembered in the second half, Conley looked for Downs to block and dismantle It seemed to be a solution, so Conley, Downs, and Gobert frequently participated in the tactics.

But Towns didn't have a good time, and in addition to an impressive life-saving three-pointer in the fourth quarter, his offensive effect was to drive Gobert. However, there is no problem with the choice of the wolf - you can't feed Downs hard and low, whether it is Washington's top defense or Knight's pinch, it will make Downs uncomfortable to play low. Conley needs to bring Downs more of a game, help him find his misalignment, and give him a dynamic environment, which will be more conducive to his advantage.

The Mavericks offense, the Wolves defend this end, it's easier to summarize:

Gobert is here, and the defense is not good enough. On the one hand, Eastern Europe is too powerful, and the leading defense of Jayden, Huazi, Walker and others has no effect, and in many rounds, Dongzi has turned the block and dismantling into heads-up, and he can also complete the single eating of mid-distance and near-basket, so that it makes no sense for Gobert to sink inside. On the other hand, Gobert's own defensive play is also lower than his normal level, and if he hesitates to retreat or delay, he will lose the game. The defense of the Mavericks' puzzle pieces to the basket and rebounding is also below his should;

Goebel was not there, and the defense was a mess. Let's not talk about it, Downs is online or offline, anti-blocking or anti-fixed, it's all wrong. The Mavericks seized the "loosening" period and blew up the wolf's defense. As the third defender, Hardy's performance this time is also quite human.

What the G1 Mavericks did can be summed up as what the first round counted on the Suns to do, but the Suns were far from doing:

With the ability to shoot with the ball as the core, blocking and dismantling punishes Gobert's retreat. Around the pass control of the blocker and the size of the terminator, there are also up and down changes, which gives the wolf a chill;

The strong side piles people, suppresses the ball of Huazi and Downs, and tests the transfer of the ball of the wolves. Xia's basket protection and discipline were once again on display, and the height of the No. 5 position for 48 minutes was really fragrant.

How do wolves adjust?

It seems unrealistic to expect the wolf's ball quotient and transfer ball to evolve suddenly, and unreasonableness is the norm for wolves. The Wolves have to work on the defensive end first, and the defense of Jayden, Huazi and Gobert should be upgraded to a higher level, not to mention whether the strategy is changed or not, even if they continue to implement the original sinking strategy, they should defend better. Gobert + Jaden will be $66 million together next year, and they can't just play with Lively and Jones Jr.

As for the alignment adjustment, the reason why Gobert didn't defend Jones Jr. was explained in the preview, and only Jones Jr. was the Mavericks' starter who could be right for Conley. There was a G1 retreat where Conley misplaced P.J. Washington and Conley fouled, which hinted at Gobert vs. Jones Jr., which in turn made Conley a risk to Washington. The deterrent effect of Washington's hollow in the bottom corner, at least so far, has not subsided, and Gobert is not necessarily safe to defend him. But if Gobert's effect on Gafford and Lively's retreat doesn't change, the Timberwolves will have to take the risk of trying to get Gobert against one of Jones and Washington to see if that defense works.

Overall, G1's experience after watching it is:

On the surface, Eastern Europe is blocking and dismantling military training;

In fact, it is the management of the Mavericks in the military training league.

PS: The four teams in the divisional finals have all strengthened the big men in the front court in less than 2 years.
