Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 312 Jordan Law
After losing to the Pacers, the Warriors experienced a wave of three-game winning streak. Fortunately, they are all in Texas, not far from each other. Yes, it is the famous Texas top three.

It's just that the current top three in Texas are more than ten years away from the birth of the three illusions!The real situation of these three teams at this time is that the Mavericks are not strong, the Rockets are not weak, and the Spurs are not old.

The so-called Mavericks are not strong, which means that although the Mavericks can get 50 wins in the regular season, they seem to be a strong team, but they have not performed well in the playoffs, so they can be said to be a pseudo-strong team.

The Rockets are not weak, but on the contrary. Due to various reasons, injuries, suspensions, etc., the Rockets' regular season record is often not good, but because of Olajuwon, they can often be in the playoffs without being beaten. If people are optimistic about the situation, they will be promoted successfully.

As for the Spurs not being old, the Spurs are a rebuilding team at this time, and the overall lineup is relatively young, so naturally there is no problem with the average age being too old.

In short, these three teams are tough. Even the weakest Spurs have performed well this season. If it weren't for the rise of the Warriors, the Spurs would have even made it to the playoffs this year!
On the 15th, the Warriors defeated the Spurs 126:122, on the 16th, they defeated the Rockets 121:116, on the 19th, they defeated the Mavericks 113:100.

Although the Warriors won all three games, the process was really dangerous, especially the back-to-back games in the first two games, and the game was played until the last moment before the winner was decided.

Therefore, although the Warriors won all the away games, the mental consumption was still great, so they returned to the home court to face the Lakers, and finally lost the Lakers 105:109.

In this campaign, Li Weisi scored 18 points and 13 assists on 32 of 8 shots, and his shooting percentage reached an astonishing 72.2%. The fourth quarter could not be scored normally, and in the end, the game was lost.

After that, they defeated the Spurs at home, and then the next opponent was the Pistons.

Unlike the last time they played against the Pistons this season, the Warriors are fully prepared tonight and want to avenge their shame. On the Pistons side, Adrian Dantley, the team's scoring leader, missed the game due to injury.

However, the development of the competition did not unfold as everyone expected.

After the absence of Dantley, the Pistons' offense became smoother. It was only because the shooting percentages of the two teams were not high that the game was extremely anxious and inextricably played from beginning to end.

Not only that, but the defense adopted by the Pistons against the Warriors tonight is the most surprising.

They used Dumars as the first line of defense, Tony Campbell and Chris Mahon as the second line of defense, and Lambiel as the third line of defense. They deployed layers of defense against Li Weisi. As long as Li Weisi made a breakthrough, he would fall into the trap They were surrounded by three people.

Because the league banned zone defense at this time, the Pistons cleverly adopted a fake zone defense, which required a high level of tacit cooperation among the players as a whole.

Therefore, it can be seen that it will not be overnight for them to practice this lineup.

When Li Weisi got the ball through layers of barriers again, he was overturned, and after he dribbled the ball out of bounds, Frank stood up from the bench with a "chuckle".

His face was a bit ugly, with a shocked expression on his face, and he said to himself: "Jordan's law, this is Jordan's law!"

"What Jordan?" Van Gundy looked at Frank suspiciously.

"Oh, no, it's nothing!" Frank came back to his senses and sat back again, but the shock in his heart didn't decrease in the slightest.

He never expected that the Pistons would start practicing the Jordan Rules so soon, let alone that the first person to use it would be Li Weisi?
Will it still be called Jordan's law in the future?Or was it renamed West's Law?

The original space-time about the birth of Jordan's law is basically considered to be a defensive strategy against the Bulls used by the Pistons, who were humiliated by Jordan and the Bulls in the playoffs in April 88.

This defensive strategy is a method from formation, to staffing, to combat methods, including unconventional actions to limit Jordan, at all costs and even fouls to disrupt Jordan's offensive rhythm.

It is said that the full version of Jordan's rules claims to have more than 100 pieces of content, and basically every one of them is not playing basketball with Jordan openly.

However, what Frank did not expect was that the Pistons would apply this rule to Li Weisi for the first time two months in advance.

Although Li Weisi has had many stories with the Pistons since he entered the league, in general, the two teams have not met many times, and basically the Pistons have the upper hand, but why this time, in an ordinary regular season, Why do the Pistons use such extreme tactics?

Looking at Li Weisi who was beaten up and down on the field, Frank couldn't calm down. He couldn't help at this time, because he knew that if he wanted to win, Li Weisi had to overcome this defense, which was the most difficult thing before he became a god. training.

Only after surviving this thunder calamity, can one truly be reborn and attain enlightenment and immortality!
Faced with such a defense, Li Weisi was obviously a little caught off guard. However, he was not Jordan, and he was not that tough. Seeing that the opponent deployed heavy troops in the penalty area, he had to rush into the penalty area.

After the initial discomfort, in the second quarter, Li Weisi was able to score or help the team score by running off the ball, shooting outside, and organizing offense.

Apparently, the Pistons are still a bit overwhelmed by this defensive strategy. Although their defensive strategy has effectively reduced Li Weisi's score, the score between the two teams has been tightly clenched, and the Pistons have not had an absolute advantage.

The anxious game between the two teams was not decided until the last moment. With Li Weisi facing Dumars' defense, he failed to hit a three-pointer. In the end, the Warriors lost the game 103:107.

Although Li Weisi encountered a tight defense tonight, he still made 17 of 10 shots, scored 22 points and 11 assists, and his shooting percentage was as high as 57%. It seemed that his efficiency was not affected at all.

But seeing Li Weisi's score, you can know that it is precisely because of such a tight defense that Li Weisi's offensive rhythm is completely disrupted, which also reduces the number of shots. From this aspect, the Pistons are successful.

However, this victory did not bring much joy to Pistons coach Chuck Daly.

This defensive strategy was specially developed by him for Jordan, and it was specially used for Li Weisi tonight because he thought Li Weisi was a good whetstone. However, the reality made him find that this defensive strategy was not effective against Li Weisi. As big as imagined.

Is it a problem with the defensive strategy itself?Or is it because of Li Weisi's special ability that the defensive effect is not ideal?Daly couldn't be sure for a while, but he knew that this defensive strategy was far from mature.

With less than 2 months left before the start of the playoffs, Daly felt that his task was a little heavier.
