Chapter 666: KFC's Lies and the Truth
Van Axel is known as a madman, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the skills. In fact, he is as famous for his offensive quality www.biquge.info as he is for his stinky temper.
Back then, on the Lakers without a Magic, his angry passing always made people seem to see the shadow of the Magic
。 After ending his Nugget career, this guy went to the Mavericks to pursue his championship dream, and the person who guided him at that time was called "Mad Scientist" - Don Nelson.
After Fan Maniac joined the coaching staff, he never got enough exposure in front of the media, but this does not mean that he will be an ordinary employee in his own right.
And this time, his chance has finally come!
"Tell me about it!" Woodson touched his forehead and said to Van Exel.
"I think our defense is good enough and we don't have much potential to tap into.
Actually, there is some truth in what everyone said just now, at least the Rockets have the same level of attack as G3, and I don't believe it will be difficult for them to play a second time.
You know, even Sean Battier, who averaged less than 9 points per game in the playoffs this season, was able to score 18 points in a single game, which can only show that the Rockets have played extraordinarily. ”
Woodson nodded, "Then let's talk about your specific offensive strategy!"
One of my goals is to get the most out of my superstar's offensive talent.
To be honest, even if you come up with a good offensive tactic right now, we don't have time to practice it. ”
Fanmaniac seemed to have guessed that Woodson would say this, and he said in a very positive tone: "Of course, there is no time to practice, so I am not prepared to come up with any complicated tactical ideas at all."
My default tactic is to focus on the individual talent of the superstar, so that they can find their own tacit understanding and chemistry in the game, come, look at this ......"
Fan Madman stood up, pulled over the one-person-high white blackboard with one hand, and took out the oil-based pen in the pen tray, and explained while drawing on the board:
"The first step I had to do was unleash Joe's playmaking talent.
Move Johnson from the No. 2 to the No. 3 position and let him switch to playmaking forward.
At the same time, moving Salmons to the No. 2 position, the Salmon have always been more efficient at scoring at the No. 2 position than at the No. 3 position, and we have always done that in the rotation;
In the second step, I'm going to have Kraft and Josh swap positions, and Josh will become a pseudo-center and get more opportunities to attack the basket directly.
And what about Kraft?
In addition to continuing to guard the basket on the defensive end, I think he can roam more in the top arc area, and freely choose to shoot directly from three-point shots, or attack with the ball......"
Fan stopped talking, not because he wanted to see how the crowd reacted, but because his tactical anticipation had already been finished.
"It's over?" Woodson asked tentatively.
Fan Maniac threw the oil-based pen back into the pen slot, nodded and said, "That's all, I also play the superstar card!"
The coaching staff collectively fell silent, and everyone was considering the feasibility of Fan's tactics.
Objectively speaking, what Fan Maniac said, the Eagles generals have already performed in the game, but no one has ever wanted to summarize these specific concepts into systematic tactical concepts and troop strategies.
To put it simply, this is again a classic strategy for location blurring.
Fan Maniac is worthy of being a point guard, and he has been with Nelson Sr., and regardless of whether this tactic can be realized, this courage alone deserves to be commended.
Woodson was the first to speak: "Tell me what you think of this tactic." ”
Some members of the coaching staff are for and against, but none of them are right, because the only person who can really make the final decision is Mike Woodson, because he is the head coach of the Eagles.
And the most influential to the head coach is the Eagles' first assistant coach Larry Drew.
At the same time, he was also the last to speak: "In the case of the intensity of the defensive end, we should make changes on the offensive end, now it's just 2:1, we are entitled to take a gamble." ”
This idea coincides with Woodson, if it is 2:2 now, Egghead may not dare to take such a risk, but the Atlanta Hawks, who have lost one game in a row, should indeed have the courage to change when facing two consecutive away games.
Last year, when they faced the powerful Celtic Big Three, it may be difficult for them to win the final East Conference if they don't have the courage to take the initiative to change formations.
When facing the Lakers in the Finals, and Bibby was out due to injury, it would have been difficult for them to win the championship without Erniu's initiative and change.
To put it mildly, the Eagles, a vibrant team, have never lacked the courage to change.
Last season, he dared to let Ruan Erniu take the lead in the playoffs, and this season he dared to prescribe the right medicine and reuse Dragic in the crucial finals.
This is a good example of Atlanta's lack of conformism.
Woodson has made up his mind and officially announced: "That's it, tomorrow's training session, just as Nick said, as long as we can successfully realize the offensive talent of the players, I always believe that we are better than the Houstonians!"
The next day, during the team's training session, Woodson said in front of everyone: "Defensively, I won't repeat it, I'm sure you can do your job well, and now it's up to Nick to talk to you about the offensive end." ”
Fan Maniac concocted the same method and repeated what he said yesterday in front of the players.
The eclipse itself had no opinion on tactics, and he said suspiciously: "Is it a hell today? Why did the 'wooden man' arrange for us to conduct offensive tactics drills?"
The eclipse muttered a little louder, so Woodson said mercilessly, "Josh Smith, run 10 laps, NOW!"
Well, the great propertied class warrior - Mr. Josh Smith proved with his own practical actions that Mike Woodson was not possessed by aliens, then the rest of the question is simple.
The Eagles began a tactical drill, and after 30 minutes, the players talked about their ideas.
Overall, no one felt uncomfortable, but that doesn't mean the tactics were successful, and no one dared to say that it was a viable solution without the validation of the game.
Fortunately, the Hawks didn't have to wait long, on June 11, 2009, two days after the end of G3, the Atlanta Hawks will come to the Toyota Center arena again, where they will compete with the Houston Rockets for G4.
If the Hawks win, Atlantans will take the match point and take the initiative of the series, and even if they lose the last away game, they will be sure enough to close the game when they return to Atlanta.
The Rockets won, the Houstonians will be demoralized, and the Texas Xiaoqiang will rely on a momentum of not admitting defeat all the way, once they win two games in a row at home, the balance of victory and defeat will also fall in their favor.
This is the cruelty of the finals, once either side carelessly loses, the situation will be reversed immediately, and if the players do not adjust their mentality well, they may collapse at any time.
Before the game began, Woodson suddenly said to Larry Drew with some meaning: "'Offense wins the game, defense wins the championship.'" 'Larry, did you say Phil Jackson was lying?'
Larry Drew asked, puzzled, "Why did you suddenly remember this?"
Woodson laughed: "When a team has players like Jordan or Pippen or O'Neal or Kobe Bryant, does Jackson need to think about offense? ”
Egghead has finally woken up, what defense wins the championship, the championship has always belonged to the team that has a balance of offense and defense, and hard power can rank among the top ranks of the league.
