Chris’s Court Vision[11/22]ナゲッツvsロケッツ

The clash between the two teams, both fighting in the NBA Cup's "Group of Death" and entrenched in the West's title race, was a showdown between the top-ranked and second-ranked offensive ratings. Yet, the game offered unpredictable twists and turns that defied any script.

デンバー・ナゲッツ 112-109 ヒューストン・ロケッツ

NBAカップ死のグループで鎬を削るだけでなく、ウェストの覇権争いにも深く食い込む2チームによるShowdownはオフェンシブレーティング1位と2位の激突。しかし、ゲームは筋書きでは描ききれない紆余曲折をみせた。

【1Q】

1Qは立ち上がりからナゲッツがペースを握る。最初のオフェンス3回はワトソンがボールを運びエルボーの延長上に移動したマレーにボールを預けてからのダブルハイピック&ロール(以下P&R)。スミスJrのスクリーンマネジメントやKDの機動力、さらにはアダムスをも揺さぶるセットは3度とも質の高いショットを生み出す。その一方でゴードンをシェングンに付け、ヨキッチはゴードンに加勢しながらもアダムスを抑えてロケッツはリズムに乗れない。アメンのアタックも上手く行っているかに見えたが、3ポイントを許容して守るワトソンとナゲッツの連携の前に効力が奪われていく。

そんななかナゲッツはハムストリングを再び負傷したゴードンが1Q 8:39に途中離脱のアクシデント。そこへ投入されたのはヴァランチュナス。ナゲッツは1ポゼッションだけ敷いた2-3Zoneでヴァランチュナスがカペラを弾き返すと、次のKDセットも上手い対応でロケッツのオフェンスは雁字搦めとなる。

抑えても自らのターンオーバーでもったいないポゼッションが続いたナゲッツだったが、ヨキッチがセンター同士のP&Rから3Pを決めるとナゲッツはディフェンスから走る展開を続けて19-8と2桁のリードを作る。ヴァランチュナスは短い起用になったがそれもロケッツがサイズダウンしてオフェンスのテコ入れを図ったからだろう。しかし、スモールラインナップになってもナゲッツディフェンスはロケッツに余裕を与えないばかりか、トンプソンやオコーギーの3ポイントを捨てながらロケッツのスペースを奪い、さらにトランジションで走って突き放す。

ヨキッチは素晴らしいアウトレットパスやプッシュをするので元々ファーストブレイクに長けているチームだが、ヨキッチがスティールするとこれに拍車がかかったのはいうまでもない。ORBも取れず、ロケッツのオフェンスは宮益を当てられて即座にメッキが剥がれていった桜木のように荒削りで丸裸な状態と化してしまう。3ポイント0/5だったロケッツは窒息状態に陥る。

この日ヨキッチは冒頭から素晴らしいディフェンスIQを遺憾無く発揮。シェングンにダブルチームに寄ったと思えば、ドリブルが終わったとみて即座にリカバー。アダムスと素晴らしいボックスアウトを見せたり、正統派ポイントガードのいないロケッツ相手にエルボーへのエントリーを許さないなど、ロケッツのポイントを全て抑えており、1Q ロケッツ最後の攻撃も24秒バイオレーションで終わる。

【2Q】

しかし、1Q 丸々出場したヨキッチがベンチに下がると風向きが変わる。まずはロケッツのシェパードが3ポイントで風穴を開けると、コート上にヨキッチがいない中でロケッツはヴァランチュナスをP&Rに巻き込み、シェパードをボールハンドラーに質の高いFGアテンプトが急増。
