After covering Stephen, Garnett turned around and made another shot to overtake the score. He beat his chest excitedly to demonstrate. Although Stephen stood aside, he was dissatisfied, but his skills were not as good as others, and there was nothing he could do. Garnett was tall and had long arms. , The action was extremely fast, and one person defended the entire penalty area, and Stephen didn't have any chance at all.

Moreover, Garnett did not confront Stephen head-on, making Stephen powerful and unable to use it, and his own small body has strength, which is really incomparable with these big guys. Recently, more than [-] points in the game, Stephen feels that he is His offensive ability is already very strong. Thinking about it now, it is also because most of his opponents are facing the opponent's bench lineup, and no one in the league has the luxury to put an all-star inside player in the bench lineup.

You must know that in this era when even Dampier dared to call himself "the second center in the West", it goes without saying how scarce excellent inside players are. It is difficult to find a tall man over seven feet in the bench lineup, let alone offensive and defensive. Everything is possible.

After Stephen left the field, the Spurs' main lineup immediately reversed the situation on the field as soon as they entered the field. Their own strength was superior, and they were waiting for work. Garnett struggled desperately until the last moment of the game, and did not give up the game. Still lost by six points, but also used their own defense to allow the Spurs to only score 83 points, a new low for the season.

The Pistons did not get such a low score, which shows the difficulty of the Timberwolves. In this game, Duncan only scored [-] points and [-] rebounds, but he won the game. Although Garnett With [-] points and [-] rebounds, he once again won Duncan statistically, but still got a defeat.

I stepped on the plane at the same time as the Timberwolves, but the Timberwolves went to the distant Indiana, while the Spurs' destination was Phoenix. At the last moment, they still lost by five points. This is the first time the Spurs have lost a game since they entered [-].

Facing the proud former subordinate D'Antoni, Popovich didn't have much thought to deal with it, and it wasn't the first time this happened to the team. Every back-to-back home game is always more uncomfortable than an away game back-to-back. Because switching from a familiar place to an unfamiliar place suddenly is a great test for the player's psychology.

It is very difficult for the Spurs with good physical strength to contain the Suns' fast-playing whirlwind tactics, let alone the situation of lack of physical strength, and as long as Nash is not locked up, everyone in the Suns will be an offensive point , After all, the Spurs cannot have everyone on the outside be Bruce Bowen or Stephen, and everyone on the inside can be Duncan.

And it is so easy to lock up Nash. Nash has a very good offensive ability. If you want to take the tactic of preventing others and letting him shoot, the result will be the same as today. Nash scored 22 points and assisted Two teammates with more than [-] points and two with more than [-] points.

The results of the experiment are very clear, this method will not work, but if you want to prevent Nash's offense, this is very easy. The Spurs often used this method before. Nash barely scored in double figures after a game, but the assist ratio If there are more points, the competition of victory and defeat is to see who has a better touch. In this case, what should the coach do? This is something every coach tries to avoid. But D'Antoni is not afraid. Don't worry about the team's offense.

If you want to restrict Nash, let Nash not play. After much deliberation, Popovich only thought of this method. This is no longer a solution. No one on the team scored in double figures in this game. When Stephen led the counterattack from the bench, the Suns sent Marion to defend Stephen.

Under the defense of this guy whose height and arms are as long as a big horse monkey, Stephen only scored [-] points. Only then did Stephen feel his lack of scoring ability. In the past, he scored a lot, and it was easy to score, and the opponent did not. Implementing the main defense for himself, Marion is like his role in the Spurs, specializing in defending the opponent's scoring points. Under this enhanced defense, it is several times more difficult to score.

Whether it is Manu Ginobili or Michael Finley, under the defense of Marion, it seems that it is easier to score than Stephen. After the game, Stephen consulted several people on this question. Although the answers are different, there is one thing in common That is, Stephen's scoring method is too monotonous. Although it is difficult for ordinary people to stop Stephen from scoring as long as he gets Stephen into the basket, for those top players, as long as they are willing to expend energy for Stephen, they can still Stephen was restricted.

This is to defend when shooting, and another way to defend is to prevent you from being in a position where you are good at scoring, just like what Marion did, without giving you a chance to squeeze in, no matter how powerful you are, If you can squeeze in once, how about the second time, how long can your physical strength last under this kind of all-out struggle?

Of course, if this method can't be limited, there is another method, that is double-teaming, two against you and one, everyone is a professional player, even if there is a difference in strength, it is impossible for you alone to Easily beat the two of them.

Of course, when double-teaming is ineffective, it is O'Neal's level. O'Neal at his peak was unsolvable, so the old Nelson invented foul tactics. This is a really helpless method. After listening to several defensive players After leveling up, Stephen had a clear idea of ​​the strength division of professional players.

From ordinary matchup defense to the need to deliberately use defensive players to defend, this is an improvement in strength. It shows that the coach of the opponent has recognized that your strength can change the trend of the game, so you need to deliberately deal with you and study your strength. Attack weak points.

If you are a rookie player, this is the legendary rookie wall. If you are the most improved player, this is the curse of the most improved player. If you cannot break through this limit and use your strength to break through this limit, then you will sink , Lost among the crowd, lost the possibility of moving forward.

"But my current shooting has met the actual combat requirements?" Stephen asked the shooting coach Energeland distressedly.

"Meeting the requirements of actual combat is only enough. If the opponent focuses on defending you, your shooting ability will not meet the requirements, and your shooting percentage will drop sharply. Moreover, your offensive method is monotonous. Strictly speaking, there is a lack of change. You Either it’s just blindly rushing inside, or it’s looking for shooting opportunities on the outside, if you want to defend you, you only need to guard against you, it’s very simple.” Energeland said to Stephen, Stephen’s offensive flaw is actually The coaching staff had discovered it a long time ago, but neither Popovich nor Carlesimo told Stephen. Naturally, he would not take the initiative to tell Stephen. Now that Stephen asked, he told Stephen.

"Change..." Stephen pondered, what Engelland said suddenly seemed to open a crack in the dull head, Stephen recalled his own attack, it was indeed as Engelland said, lacking change, always the same If you use this method to fight to the end, even if you change, you will only think of changing after you are frustrated, but how to combine these two offensive methods?Stephen threw the question to Engelland again.

"I'm just a shooting coach." Engelland didn't want to say so much at first, but seeing that Stephen really asked him for advice sincerely, and he himself was very sure of Stephen, so he thought about it before slowly opening up to Stephen. Mouth: "A player, if he can go inside and outside, can shoot and pass, and can use all kinds of offensive methods, can he be targeted for defense?"

"No." Stephen shook his head affirmatively. In fact, at the beginning, Stephen wanted to say that he could, and that it would be fine to stick around, but he thought that sticking around was not a targeted defense. Sticking around just made it harder for the opponent to score. , so Stephen shook his head.

"That's it, because you don't know what he is going to do next, and your problem is that you can analyze your next step as long as you watch your offensive video. You are a defensive player yourself, and you also treat you I have done video analysis of my defensive targets, so can you explain Kobe's offensive habits clearly? Can you find Pierce's offensive shortcomings?"

"No." This Stephen is very clear, not only Kobe and Pierce, but also McGrady, Iverson, James, Anthony, Arenas, etc. have almost no obvious weaknesses, and the defense against them is exhausted. Go all out to stalk and stalk, there is no good way other than this.

"So if you want to become a good offensive player, you must constantly make up for your own offensive shortcomings and improve your offensive skills. Did you play wild ball before?" Engelland asked, and after Stephen answered yes, he went on Then he said: "Although you have completed all the basic training a while ago, you need to combine these basics and make them your own, and then you need to continue to hone them. When you are thoroughly familiar with all the offensive methods, If you are integrated, then you will become a top player in the league, but this process will be extremely long and tedious, and it will also take up a lot of your vacation time. For example, this summer vacation, I suggest you follow I continue to practice shooting. Of course, I have to pay for it. In the next season, I will not be able to teach you. You need to hire more professional talents to teach you. This may use up a large part of your income. Are you willing? ?”

"Willing." Stephen is of course happy that Engellander is willing to take the initiative to help him train. Engellander can be the shooting coach of the Spurs, so he naturally has certain abilities. In addition, he has been responsible for Stephen's training. I also understand the progress of training. As for money, it is not a problem. Not everyone is willing to work overtime during the offseason. They would rather go on vacation.
