The Whip of the God of Basketball - Chapter 402

Chapter 405

Stan Van Gundy has expected the Suns to use a small lineup, or this is not expected at all. In these few games, Leon has firmly used a small lineup, which has already had a lot of influence in the media and coaching circles.

In the coaching circle, no one admits that Fox Leon is a master of tactics, because this guy was born halfway and he has never been a professional player or even an amateur player. He used to be a boxer and was in jail.

Therefore, in the basketball world, where the origin and “blood” are very important, Leon won’t be recognized no matter how many championships the wild fox produces. He has no factions. In this civilized basketball world, he is a barbaric people.

But in the history of civilization, it was the invasion and migration of barbarians that changed the face of the world, and Leon’s tactical acumen and development also greatly influenced the basketball world.

After winning the Boston championship in 2004, David Stern realized that Fox Leon and his Green Corps, like Auerbach in the past, are likely to monopolize the league in their ugly ways. At the same time, their ugliness has also affected other teams, such as the Spurs and Pistons. Stern shuddered when thinking of the future league being dominated by these teams.

So since 2005, the league began to advocate offense a little bit. The Celtics gritted their teeth and won three consecutive championships, but the general offensive trend of the league is irreversible. Now Leon has come to the offensive trend of the Suns, it seems to have the opportunity to follow the trend, to contribute to the offensive tide.

The Suns still stumbled a little in the first few games, and after a few games, especially their small lineup, they began to show something. Of course, the fans rarely noticed this. They only saw the wonderful offense and defense and the final score, while the coaching staff of each team was very eye-catching. They wanted to see what other tricks the sun’s small lineup could play .

Stan Van Gundy thinks the same way. Everyone knows that the small lineup is on the inside. Of course, he will not miss this opportunity. He prolonged Howard’s time on the court and changed the team’s tactical strategy of shooting three points. , Replaced Carlos Arroyo to increase the assault ability in the backcourt, constantly attacking the inside of the Suns.

This move undoubtedly worked. Howard continuously grabbed rebounds in the interior or received breakthrough passes from his teammates. But the Magic still lags behind, because they can’t prevent the Suns’ offense on the defensive end. Specifically, they can’t prevent Jaskovicius.

After Hill came on the field, Leon decided to remove Bell and replace him with Jaskovicius, so that with Hill, if he can make up for Jaskovicius’ soft defensive feet.

After a few rounds, Hill had no problem with Turkoglu’s markings, and he was able to keep up. At the same time, the wingspan determined that Turkoglu would definitely not be comfortable. He can also help the two outsides to defend and block, his experience is there, not comparable to a rookie like Dudley.

Jascovihus’ offense broke out in the second half of the first quarter. He hit two consecutive three-pointers in the offense and sent a beautiful assist to Marion’s midway dunk.

The Suns’ offensive strategy of three-pointers, all five people on the field have three-pointers, which makes Howard’s defense a little weak. Although his mobility is good enough to extend his defensive range to the three-point line, he is the only barrier for the team. After he makes up, there will be no one inside. Lewis basically does not have the ability to block at the basket. .

This gives the Suns a lot of room to operate. Marion and Hill are both masters in air-cutting positions, while Nash and Dior are legendary masters, and Jakovicius’s passing ability is also very strong. Cast three passes and two cuts, once the cooperation is tacit, the play is simply unpredictable.

It just doesn’t seem that they have such a tacit understanding. Hill’s offensive position is still very rusty. He even collided with Marion. Even so, at the end of the first quarter, the score of the two sides was 34:29. Magic attacked Very good, but the Suns’ offense was really fierce. After 30 minutes in a quarter, he made 6 three-pointers and couldn’t raise the Magic’s head.

In the second quarter, the two sides entered the rotation phase of the second team. Van Gundy finally replaced Howard. Once Howard was off the field, the entire defensive system almost collapsed and could only be maintained by strength and rotation. Leon knows this very well. He can see that Jaskovicius is in good shape tonight. He boldly extended his time on the court and replaced Nash with Jaskovicius as the master. control.

This time the “European King” broke out completely. He entered the Olympic mode at the beginning of the second quarter. He took the ball for half of the game. After a pick and roll, he shot directly from the three-point line, hit, and hit two more. He has hit 4 three-pointers in this game.

After accepting Leon’s invitation to join the Suns this summer, Jaskovicius was determined to prove himself, so he practiced three-pointers crazy in the summer, which raised his three-pointer level to another level. After the training every day, he also has to do additional training, because in Nash, he saw a successful example.

Jascovihus’ wonderful performance did not end. The Magic strengthened his defense from outside, but he is not a player who can only make strong shots. He played with Hill who continued to stay on the court and took advantage of Dior’s Screening, Hill cut to the basket, Magic outside attention was all on Jaskovicius, and he made a precise through pass to Hill, Hill received the ball and hit the rim.

This was Hill’s first point and goal scored by the Suns. A smile appeared on his face. It felt great to be able to return to the court and score a goal.

The Suns’ offense became smoother and smoother. Stan Van Gundy called a timeout and replaced Howard and the main lineup. They played smoothly on the offensive end, but they really couldn’t prevent the Suns’ offense. Now, the Suns coaching staff finally understand why Leon wants to play a small lineup, and why so much hope that Hill can join, this flexible and sophisticated third position, the team’s offensive contribution is invisible.

Moreover, ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Hill has not participated in the team training, their cooperation is not tacit enough, as long as he is not troubled by injuries, in his state, and the team is running well, this set of small This lineup looks quite powerful.

Stan Van Gundy also has no ready cards in his hand. Anyway, the Suns are in the West and they are playing in the regular season, but they won’t be in the playoffs. So he focused on letting Howard attack. At the end of the game, Howard had already scored 13 shots and scored 17 points. In the past, he might have shot so many shots in a game.

At the end of the half, the Suns entered the halftime with a 61:51 lead of 10 points ahead of the Magic. The Suns without a center put the Magic with a Warcraft under their body, which made people a little unreadable.

Only Leon knew in his heart that he did nothing else in this half of the game. His main focus was on statistics for the players and then mental calculation of offensive and defensive efficiency, which was a piece of cake for him.

Through some complicated mental calculations, Leon knew that the Suns won this half because of their high offensive efficiency and average defensive efficiency. If you want to continue to strengthen, one is to wait for Stoudemire’s return to further improve offensive efficiency. It is to slightly improve their defensive efficiency, at least higher than average.
