Another Rivers? Tactical errors and lack of on-the-spot adaptability, causing the Thunder to be forced into the tiebreak

On May 16, after so many playoffs, everyone probably discovered that the team's coach may not play much in the regular season, but the role of the playoffs is quite critical. In the first round of the series, the Clippers were unanimously optimistic, but because of Tyron Lue's stubbornness, they eventually lost. In the last attack of the G4 opponent in the series, he did not play a big protective rebound, and chose to let small defenders such as Harden and Powell defend, which resulted in Gordon's tip-off.

Kele has been in the playoffs, overall, his on-the-spot adjustment ability and tactical targeting can support the title of coach of the US men's basketball team, but Kele's shortcomings are also obvious. He trusts too much in his five-squad lineup. Now the five-squad can no longer keep up with the times. Because they have been playing in the five-squad, they can't defend Randle, which eventually led to the team being defeated by the Timberwolves. In fact, the defeats of Tyron Lu and Cole are understandable. The players have weaknesses and the coach also have weaknesses, and their weaknesses are still acceptable.

If Harden's G5 or G7 performs normally, the Clippers may have advanced to the second round. If Curry is not injured, it will be difficult for the Timberwolves to win the Warriors. I think the coach who made the most mistake in the playoffs so far is Degent. It is understandable that other coaches lead the team have poor results. For example, Spoo and Mazula, they don’t have too many cards in their hands, otherwise they would not have fallen into a passive position. Degent has a lot of cards in their hands, but he has played a lot of good cards!

Everyone should know the result of the Nuggets and Thunder today. In this game, the Thunder lost to the Nuggets 107-119. Alexander tried his best in this game, making 11 of 16 shots, scoring 32 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists. They once led the double digits, but the team lost to their opponents. Why is this? Because Dagnot's adjustment ability is not good, let's talk about Alexander's use. Alexander only played 34 minutes in this game, looking at Jokic for 40 minutes, Murray for 42 minutes, and even Braun and Gordon for more than 38 minutes.

At this stage of the series, it is time to reduce rotation and let the core play as much as possible. Jokic is useless and he is still on the court because he can play as long as he is on the court. After Alexander's game, the Thunder did not have a stable scoring point. If Alexander played for 40 minutes, would the result of this game be different? There is also the use of Caruso. Friends who have watched this round of the series know how outstanding Caruso is. In this game, he led the team back to suspense in the fourth quarter, and as a result, the whole game only lasted 27 minutes.

When the team was 10 points ahead and the opponent was about to catch up, I don't know if it was called a temporary decision. What impressed the fans the most was the G1 of this round of the series. Let us go back to the last 11 seconds of this game, and the Thunder led by 3 points. At this time, Jokic was on the court, and the Thunder directly used the foul tactics, and the opponent fouled as soon as he sent the ball, which took only 0.4 seconds. Jokic also came on the court, and Gordon made both free throws and chased him to only 1 point.

The Thunder used their last timeout, and Chet missed two free throws after being fouled, then Westbrook grabbed the rebound and assisted Gordon to complete the final kill. The penalty tactic has killed himself. The key is that if you use foul tactics, you should let your opponent pass the half and spend more time. If it weren't for the problem of Degent in this game, the Thunder would have won. In this case, the Thunder will now lead the Nuggets 4-2 and eliminate their opponents.

Degnot's coach reminds me of the Bucks coach Rivers. Lao Li likes penalty kicks and is often reversed. And the two of them are most similar to their ability to adjust on the spot. They don't know what to do when they should do. Rivers looked confused and dull, while Daegnot was eating bubble gum on the sidelines. With this skill, can't you shout and command your teammates to run off the court? The 68 wins in the regular season have given the outside world an overly high praise for Degenut, but his ability is actually very average.

Losingly, the Nuggets played tiebreaker in the last round. If the Nuggets passed the first round easily, if they had sufficient physical fitness in the past two games, the Thunder might have been eliminated now and tiebreaker in the end. To be honest, I am not optimistic about the Thunder. Although they have advantages in home and physical fitness, their experience is very limited. At this stage of the playoffs, experience and execution are both key. Dagenot was able to lead the Thunder to such an excellent regular season record, thanks to Presti for setting him up a great lineup.

With the Thunder's lineup configuration and talent, even if given to Redick, he is probably able to lead the team to achieve the top record in the league. Dai Gnott is still too young after all, and few young coaches can be as good as the young coach. If they cannot win the championship this season, I think the Thunder can try to change the coach. Their young players have begun to rise, and they probably don't have the patience to grow up with the coach. Having said that, what do you want to say about Degenut?
