Chapter 653 Make Coaching Great Again (Deacon Gagen)

There were waves of defensive shouts all over the field.

The Trail Blazers serve to attack. Lillard quickly leads the ball across the center line without calling a pick-and-roll, and passes directly to Turner on the left wing. With the help of Turner's cover, he goes to the sideline and cuts inside. Shift right.

Turner took the ball to the top of the arc simultaneously, looking straight at the direction of the right sideline, as if he was going to pass the ball back to Lillard who came out with the double screen of Von Lai and McCollum, but McCollum A little anxious, he disassembled and started to rush to the basket ahead of time.

Just one action.

Curry instantly saw through his true intentions, Lillard's running position was just a backup option, and attacking the basket was the Blazers' first choice.

In the blink of an eye, Curry stopped chasing Lillard, turned his hips and moved laterally to intercept McCollum, and Antetokounmpo was on the left elbow, shouting at LaVine to remind: "Switch defense, LaVine, switch defense ..." LaVine immediately started to intercept Lillard.

The Blazers had no choice but to shoot.

It is estimated that considering McCollum's advantage over Curry, Turner raised his hand and put the ball straight to the basket, instructing the attack.

McCollum took the ball and did.

However, the confrontation failed to take advantage. Seeing that Antetokounmpo and Cousins ​​shrank, they jumped off in a hurry and forcibly threw the ball.

Curry is also a rookie who bench presses 84 kg up to 10 times. In recent years, he has also gained weight and core training, which is not for nothing.

McCollum's movements were completely deformed, the basketball bounced and fell, and Curry jumped up and grabbed it like a big center.

The Blazers quickly retreated.

Cheers erupted in the arena, Su Yang got up to remind him to continue playing misleading tactics, and Curry raised his hand to signal.

It is still RAM to start, but this time the formation of one inside and four outside is deployed, and the real RAM is played, and the true and false switches are just for fun.

Seeing that Curry ran across the center line, Cousins ​​​​started towards the right elbow, and George took the opportunity to use the screen to lift to the top of the arc.

The Blazers looked at the movement, Harkless and McCollum shrank in advance, and Turner didn't stand still.

They thought it was a ghost feinting.

But that once thought, George actually covered, set up a wall to block Lillard, and Curry took the opportunity to accelerate to the right 45 degrees.

Turner hurriedly moved laterally to try to delay, but Curry took advantage of the situation and started with the ball. He raised his hand and scored a three-pointer, riding a horse and shooting an arrow.

Boom!The three-pointer hit the circle and entered the net.

Cheers erupted in the arena, the Blazers generals and the coaching staff were dumbfounded, the King's switch between true and false, not talking about martial arts.

Head coach Stotts frowned, thinking for a while and wanted to double-team Curry, so that it would be useless whether the Kings had real RAM or fake RAM, but faced with the risk of the Kings playing a wave, he hesitated to make a decision Also did not speak.

While thinking about it, Lillard held the ball to find a pick-and-roll, but was double-teamed by King Antetokounmpo and George, and made a panic pass and made a mistake.

The two teams switched offense and defense, and the Kings once again started from inside to outside.

According to Su Yang's instructions, Curry raised his hand again to signal the RAM routine to start, and George and Cousins ​​followed suit.

Turner didn't dare to be careless this time, and kept a close eye on George's movements, but he didn't expect that Curry passed the ball directly to George, followed by Cousins ​​who mentioned the top of the arc on the United, and then gave George the ball in reverse. Doing double screens makes him really powerless to chase.

Between runs, George stopped at the 45-degree three-point line on the right, and the misplaced matchup against Lillard, who was forced to switch defenses, was big and small.

The kings spread out, George relied on his size advantage, lowered his center of gravity sideways to protect the ball, and rushed like a bulldozer.

Lillard didn't dare to make a move, and forcibly resisted and retreated to the paint area, watching George take off and make a throw, and the basketball slammed into the net.

Cheers reappeared in the center of gravity of Golden One. The Kings played a 7-0 attack wave, and the Blazers requested a timeout.

In the TNT live broadcast seat, Reggie Miller said: "It's so exciting! The Kings attacked three times in a row, which can be regarded as using the RAM discussion to the extreme. I bet that there will be many teams imitating it in the new season, which requires extremely strong defensive resources. response!"

Kevin Harlan said with a smile: "I feel like it's just a simple pick-and-roll. I didn't expect there to be so many changes in it. According to what you said, this tactic is very suitable for teams without superstars. As long as the tacit understanding and execution are strong enough, it will be effective. ?”

"Of course!"

Reggie Miller nodded, and then said: "But the basic premise is that the point guard has the ability to stop and shoot, otherwise this kind of routine will be difficult to develop. You can imagine Jason Kidd playing this tactic, and the defender will definitely let him stop and shoot. Three points..."

On the field, the king's bench.

Su Yang looked around at the players, and his eyes fell on Curry, "According to our previous analysis, they will probably use the strategy of double-teaming Curry to limit the situation. We can change our thinking in advance and play Chicago+Kepp more..."

The so-called Keep is to pretend to be hand-in-hand, which fits well with Chicago and does not give the Blazers a chance to double-team.

The whistle sounded at the end of the pause.

The game between the two teams continued.

The Trail Blazers used Aminu to replace Feng Lai, put on a combination of greater mobility and offensive ability, and almost gave up protecting the frame. It was clear that they wanted to fight against the Kings. After all, they were as many as 7 points behind, and the Kings were so strong fierce, and also double-teamed Lillard.

The referee whistled and Lillard caught the ball and advanced.

Su Yang looked around and found that Lillard kept waving his hands. Looking at the frontcourt formation, he concluded that it was a continuous hand-to-hand tactic.

There is nothing to remind, that level of tactics is too low-end and too obvious, and the kings and generals will definitely be able to communicate well.

As he expected, Lillard ran to the left 45 degrees, handed the ball to McCollum on the left wing, and then pretended to run to the bottom corner, but in fact raised his elbow to push Curry away, turned around and ran back to the right. The side is 45 degrees, and at this time McCollum has handed over the player to Turner. Unfortunately, the Kings and Turner have been on the same team for two seasons, so they don't know Turner's habit at the three-point line.

Without any surprises, Turner passed the ball back hand-to-hand again, and Lillard caught the ball and rushed to the top of the arc to initiate a heads-up.

Toss a big circle, pass the ball hand-to-hand three times, the actual tactical effect is the same as a direct call to open a heads-up, there is no difference.

It's definitely not Stotts' special design, it's just to make Lillard look less independent, and take a break by the way.

There were boos in the arena.

Lillard changed hands with his crotch and dribbled behind his back. He really broke through Curry and entered the paint area. It's too steep, smashing the basket and hitting the iron to rebound.

Cousins ​​rushed to pick up the basketball, and the Kings launched a counterattack.

The five-out formation started, and while Curry ran across the center line with the ball, Cousins ​​at the top of the arc and Antetokounmpo on the right wing all turned to the right, and George took the opportunity to get rid of Turner from the bottom corner on the left and chase him straight. Heading towards the top of the arc, exactly the same as before.

The Blazers generals were suddenly distraught.

How the hell is this TM going to defend?

After hesitating, Curry raised his hand and passed the ball to George who rushed to the top of the arc, and the Blazers players fell into the circle again.

How to defend this TM?

RAM turned into a double screen again. Why did George raise his hand to pass back again? Could it be that Curry rushed to shoot a three-pointer?
Before he could figure it out, George suddenly put down the basketball he was about to pass back, and the ball rushed 45 degrees to the left side of the high.

That movement, that look, that body language, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be cooperating with LaVine in the left corner.

The key is that LaVine himself has taken action.

Seeing this, McCollum instinctively started to catch up.

Unexpectedly, LaVine made an emergency stop and ran back to the basket, received a pass from George, took off against Harkless, glided for a short distance in the air, sideways to avoid potential blocks, slammed the bar and kicked back, and the basketball slammed The basket exploded into the net, and the cheers immediately burst.

"Is that Michael Jordan?"

Reggie Miller chuckled, and then said: "The Trail Blazers players may need to see a psychiatrist after this round of the series. I guess they are going crazy now. The same starting line has so many changes. It's completely different." Know how to defend?"

Kevin Harlan also laughed: "It seems that the Rockets' unlimited defense strategy can limit the King's tactics?"

Miller shrugged slightly: "It's okay! I bet Su Yang still has a tactical manual as thick as a dictionary..."

During the detailed discussion, Lillard rushed to shoot a three-pointer.

The Kings counterattacked with a rebound, starting with one inside and four outside, and when Curry ran across the center line, it turned into one high and four lows.

LaVine followed up with the cover of Cousins, pretending to cover the wall, but in fact the ghost feinted, making it seem like another RAM routine, and Cousins ​​also chased to the top of the arc with his front and rear feet, and the ghost also feinted. Gun, turn around and cut inside.

Although it was just a feint, the pick-and-roll coordination has been formed and successfully attracted most of the Blazers' attention.

And George started running from the basket at the same time, with the cover of Antetokounmpo, quietly slipped to the bottom corner on the right, Turner reacted a little slower.

It wasn't that Turner was inattentive, but that Cousins ​​went down and made hesitation, making it difficult to make a decision for a while.

Seeing this, Curry raised his hand and threw the ball to the right corner. George received the ball wide open and threw a three-pointer against the fly.

The basketball slammed into the net, the Kings hit a 12-0 attack wave, and the Blazers stood still.

The central big screen shot was given to the Blazers bench, and head coach Stotts was smiling, as if accepting reality.

The situation turned one-sided. It was difficult for the Blazers coaching staff to solve the King's routine in time, and there was no such resource to use. The referee had no choice but to favor the Blazers.

The whole game ended quickly, and the Kings won 121 to 109. A total of six players scored in double figures and suffered 29 fouls.

For the Trail Blazers, the fiery McCollum scored 41 points, Lillard also scored 34 points, but after the game, fans from all walks of life frantically mocked the referee for blowing the whistle, accusing the league of trying to create suspense. Fortunately, Su Yang was superior , crushed to death forcefully.

Reggie Miller's remarks caused widespread discussion.

Many fans expressed their amazement in posts. They never expected that Su Yang, with a five-star lineup, would spend so much time studying various tactics. Moreover, he was at the league vane level when he made a move. He is the best coach. up!

Amid all kinds of compliments, Kobe tweeted: "I participated in the whole process of preparing for this game. Su Yang didn't plan to use those tactics at first. He made a temporary decision. For his understanding of tactics and players, very horrible!"
