Ship Digging G7 - Analyzing the regretful defeat from tactical level

The Nuggets defeated the Clippers at home, won the tiebreak and advanced to the next round, while the Clippers could only go home with regrets. Although there are many unwillingness, the Clippers have also found the team's problems through the series with the Nuggets. When all the players are healthy, next season is worth looking forward to.

Let's review the main reasons for the Clippers' collapse in this game:

1. The time when the teacher was not there in the second quarter, the failure of the Clippers' three small lineup

When the Clippers entered the second quarter with 5 advantages under the leadership of Harden's 6 assists and 2 steals, this time when the teacher was not there should have been a time when the Clippers continued to expand their advantages, but the Nuggets took the lead in changing the lineup, abandoning Jordan Jr., and using the five small small teams, but the Clippers did not respond. The small lineups of Ka, Powell, Bogdan, Dunn, and Batum did not establish any advantages, but were overtaken by the opponent in one fell swoop. This is the most critical node in the game, because the time when the advantage should be established, you failed to establish an advantage, which is very fatal. If you are not Dunn in the first quarter, even if Simmons changes to Zubac for 2 minutes and then uses Zubac to play at the beginning of the second quarter, the effect will be much better than this game.

Taking advantage of the height advantage to take the initiative during the time when the teacher is away is also the key to winning the G2G3 in this round of series, but the Perch seems to have completely forgotten this operation.

Powell failed to score a one-on-one single with Watson. The better choice for this goal is to break through Batum who passed the far end.

The small card attracted double teams, and Bogdan missed the three-pointer in a big open space, which was a very unfortunate round.

Gordon completely crushed Powell to the inside singles

Dunn beat the basket with one-on-one Gordon failed to make the game, which was a very bad offense

Come back, Watson counterattacked the Clippers without firm foothold and scored at the basket.

Xiaoka broke through the penalty area and was double-teamed by a double-team, passing to Dunn's open position at the top of the arc, Dunn missed the three-pointer.

There were four rounds in total, the Clippers were not allowed to score 0:4, four attacks, one pitcher who should shoot a fixed point and one who should play a single shot with the ball, one who should play a pick-and-roll with the ball and missed a large open position, and the other one who lets his attack weakest ring go to the inside to protect the frame and strong point Gordon. A non-pitcher who makes himself the worst shot to shoot.

What kind of offensive arrangement is this? What kind of rotation does the bass arrange to play the connection section? We don't know, but what we know is that you can't even grasp this time period. Harden, who had been forced to play for only 46 minutes, was forced to play for only two minutes and was forced to play. The momentum of the game has been completely reversed by the Nuggets. Don’t underestimate these two minutes, this is the most important watershed between the two sides in this game.

2. The role players' three-pointers are completely inaccurate

Compared with the Clippers' three-pointers who shorted the Nuggets, the Nuggets Watson, Westbrook and Braun responded to the three-pointers of 6 of 10 shots. The difference between the role players here in the Clippers, including Powell, 4 of 17 shots is really too huge.

Westbrook's three-pointer made in the open space

Watson's three-pointer made in the open space

The more the Clippers' character player failed to make the outside, the more the opponent defended the joint defense, limiting Harden and Kat's breakthrough, the team fell into a vicious cycle. The role players cannot make a shot, Harden cannot make a breakthrough, Xiaoka is in singles, and cannot grab a rebound, and is frantically beaten to counterattack, and the opponent makes a three-pointer. I was soon caught in a wave and never had a chance to catch up.

Batum missed a three-pointer in a big open space;

Bogdan missed a three-pointer in a big open space;

3. There is too little support for Harden, the tactical initiator,

In the first half, the Clippers scored a total of 18 sports goals, of which Harden scored 10 assists and scored two goals at the same time. It can be said that he supported the game alone and was not beaten. In this way, there were still a group of people who crazily mocked Harden for his abnormality.

How to crack the joint defense against the opponent

A, someone at the top of the arc responded to the second pass, the pitcher from the bottom corner made a 3-pointer from Harden, Batum passed the pass to Batum, and Batum made a three-pointer from the arc, Zubac, and Harden passed the ball, which is the best way to break the joint defense, but in order for Harden not to be double-teamed, the bass rarely used Zubac's pick-and-roll, Harden was double-teamed, and Zubac was double-teamed, and Zubac was scored by a throw;

Harden Bogdan picked-and-roll, Bogdan made a three-pointer, and Bogdan made a three-pointer today

The only three-pointer used Zubac to disassemble.

The three buzzer-beating distribution on the left side, Lawn obviously violated the cylinder, the referee turned a blind eye, and at the same time, he had to face Westbrook's assisted defense

Let's look at Harden's breakthrough, which is the scale of the referee's referee against Harden;

C. The weak side 45-degree response

Xiao Ka's straight shot received Harden's pass, and then broke through, is a good way

Jones directly attacked the box

D. The free throw line is the key to breaking the deadlock, which is good The free throw line should be connected to the strategic value of cracking the joint defense

Harden was double-teamed by high-level positions, Jones followed the free throw line, and directly attacked the box;

Harbor was double-teamed by double-teamed by high-level positions, and he received the ball and directly attacked the box;

Harden was double-teamed by high-level positions, as long as there was someone who could handle the ball at the free throw line, he could punish the opponent's defense very well. Unfortunately, there was too few such cooperation

When Harden could not play the offensive influence, the team's offense was completely stagnant.

3. The bass' tactical mistakes

A. This game should be completely DNP Dunn

Dunn failed to make an empty basket in the first quarter;

B. Zubac did not appear at the beginning of the second quarter, which was a huge strategic mistake

C. Bogdan made continuous mid-range shots in the free throw line, and more tactics should be designed to break up with him and Zubac, reducing Harden's pressure to hold the ball

Bogdan used Zubac's cover to shoot a three-pointer

D. Powell made too many ball-holding attacks, and the weak side fixed-point shot almost disappeared throughout the game. And there were very few catches and shots he relied on to survive in the whole game. When you are in a bad state, you should replace Bogdan or Jones in time.

Powell made a breakthrough mistake

E. When the score in the third quarter was pulled apart, he did not arrange any tactics to help the team stabilize the situation and try to recover the score, but allowed the players to play various singles.

Powell's ball-holding mistake has always been his biggest problem;

F. When Harden was led by Braun in the whole game, he did not design a tactic, so that Harden could catch the ball through cover and then organize it was a very failure.

Xiao Ka took the ball and passed the half-time, and Harden ran around and received the ball through Dunn and Zuba's double cover. Such Chicago tactics rarely appeared in this round of series.

repeated tactical mistakes, unbalanced mentality after being overtaken in the second quarter, and the Nuggets' home advantage, it was no surprise that the Clippers lost.

Although the game is lost, the Clippers can leave with their heads raised, and there are no losers in this wonderful series. We also look forward to the Nuggets performing well in subsequent games.
