Chapter 88 Blame Zhou Mubai! [Make up for yesterday]
Phil Jackson thinks Zhou Mubai is right. The Lakers are now adhering to the triangular tactics. Zhou Mubai can basically fine-tune it according to the situation on the field. This is the benefit of a super point guard.
The super point guard can be fine-tuned based on the on-site situation. If the tactics cannot be implemented, it can also perform small-scale adaptability, so the so-called three-point route does not exist.
very nice.
Phil Jackson smiled comfortably.
The super giants he coaches, such as Michael Jordan or Kobe, are actually shooting guards, who drive the team with offense. Most point guards play not very important roles in his system. It’s not that he doesn’t need them, but that it’s hard to find a good point guard.
A good point guard is much better for communication than a shooting guard with offense as the core, and more of the execution tactics are point guards. The shooting guards are not easy to communicate because they are obsessed with offense.
For example, Jordan and Kobe always have many troubles that he needs to solve, but the point guard itself is similar to a coach and has extremely strong tactical abilities. Therefore, many point guards can directly transform into the coach's path after retirement, and the point guards are generally not too personal. There are very few point guards like Rondo and Deron, and more are point guards like Paul and Nash who get along well with the coach.
Phil Jackson, who worked with the super point guard for the first time, felt very comfortable. He felt that he was not communicating with the players at all, but with his assistant coach.
In the second half, the Cavaliers tried to make changes and strengthened their strength on the defensive end. However, the cooperation between Kobe and Zhou Mubai made the Cavaliers lose the other side. Fortunately, the Cavaliers' offense was still smooth under James' sorting, but even so, the Lakers' efficiency was still much higher. In the third quarter, the Lakers led by ten.
Zhou Mubai took a rest in the fourth quarter. In the second half of the quarter and returned to the court with the starter, the Cavaliers also brought back James and O'Neal, intending to hold the final battle.
When Zhou Mubai saw O'Neal playing, he couldn't help but smile.
For other teams, although O'Neal's pace is slow, it is generally difficult for them to use, because it is difficult to achieve big and small play in the current space environment. For Zhou Mubai, O'Neal is a target. As long as he comes up, he must resolutely beat him up!
Zhou Mubai only took three rounds to beat O'Neal.
O'Neal returned to the bench and yelled. At the age of 38, he had never been insulted like this. Today, he was beaten so miserably by a rookie!
The espn trio kept sighing.
In just three rounds, Zhou Mubai called three pick-and-rolls in a row.
The first O'Neal took it back, and then Zhou Mubai pulled up the three-pointer and made a three-pointer!
The second O'Neal rushed up, Zhou Mubai passed the ball to Bynum who was down, and Valejo was dunked and knocked out of the baseline!
In the third round, O'Neal and Valaijo changed their defenseman, and Zhou Mubai still named O'Neal, let O'Dom go to the pick-and-roll, or beat O'Neal.
O'Neal lost ground, and I don't know whether to go up or take it back, Zhou Mubai broke through O'Neal directly, and Kobe broke into the bottom corner of the basket, and Kobe made a three-pointer!
O'Neal became a big colander.
The United States has no tradition of respecting the elderly, especially in the arena.
But they still couldn't bear to see it.
But Zhou Mubai's choice is not wrong. In the arena, of course, if you catch the opponent's weakness, you have to fight to the death. As long as the opponent can't think of a way to deal with it, you will fight until the opponent collapses.
It was just that O'Neal himself was very difficult to accept. For the first time, he felt so thoroughly that he even had the idea of retiring.
In fact, O'Neal was not good at pick-and-roll when he was young, but the tactical concepts of the era were different. At that time, three-pointers were not valued, and few defenders dared to play like Zhou Mubai. In fact, the same was true in this era, but Zhou Mubai was just an anomaly.
The espn trio sighed true, but their eyes were shiny at the same time.
So it turns out that small fights can play like this?
It turns out that dislocation can be used so thoroughly?
So can the shrinking defensive tactics be so broken?
These are not new tactics, nor are they new ideas. Someone has fought like this long ago, but there is no such thing as Zhou Mubai's thinking so clear and decisive execution!
The Cavaliers' coach Brown frowned deeper and deeper, and finally he became frowning. Originally, the Cavaliers traded O'Neal to find a strong opponent for LeBron. The high salary of 20 million US dollars was several million higher than James, but Zhou Mubai's fight tonight completely exposed O'Neal's weakness.
The East is not the only one in the Cavaliers. Both the Celtics and the Magic team are very strong. The Cavaliers were defeated by the Celtics two years ago and were defeated by the Magic last year. This year, I finally found an O'Neal, but I was beaten out of my true form. What should I do if other Eastern teams follow suit?
It's okay for the Celtics. Rondo is a very good defender, but he doesn't have three-pointers and can still defend in the same way as before.
But Nelson of the Magic is difficult to deal with. Nelson's three-pointers are very accurate. Last season, Nelson averaged 4.3 three-pointers per game, and was able to hit two three-pointers, with a three-point shooting percentage of up to 45.3%!
Three-pointers with a shooting percentage of up to 45.3%, and Nelson is good at breaking through, if he targets O'Neal according to Zhou Mubai's playing style, the Cavaliers will not only face Howard's inside threat, but also score points to deal with Nelson. That's a big deal!
It’s all this Zhou Mubai’s fault!
Coach Brown was so angry that his teeth itched.
Phil Jackson was thinking.
Since O'Neal can deal with this, then the Celtics' Garnett and Perkins may be able to do it too.
Garnett is also old, while Perkins is too heavy and has too slow to move.
In fact, most centers have such problems, but few opponents respond in this way.
If Zhou Mubai can use misalignment to play efficiently and drive the opponent's frame protection center out of the basket, can the other two Casols and Odom of the Lakers play a greater role?
Although the Lakers' three highs are afraid of their opponents, when the three highs are at the basket, the basket is almost crowded so that even a fly may be squeezed to death. If the opponent's frame protection center can be pulled out of the basket, then wouldn't it be pleasant for the Lakers' two highs to bully the opponent's first high?
Phil Jackson turned around and told Clemens: "Go back and try to develop a small misalignment tactic."
Clemens was stunned: "High pick-and-roll tactics?"
Phil Jackson nodded.
Clemens nodded without asking much questions. Most of the high pick-and-rolls are used to mobilize opponents' defenses to form misalignment. This is a simple cooperation and generally does not require too complicated cooperation. However, with his understanding of Phil Jackson, it is definitely not that simple. He should cooperate in all aspects of the inside.
