Chapter 108: Three against Five
"I feel like there are still some limits that need to be made. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Jack Leod said with a gasp as well.
Lloyd Pierce appeared again, and he nodded: "Then make a little more limit, the offensive team must not pass the ball more than five times, and the offensive team except Paul, everyone else can only attack from outside the three-point line, not receive the ball inside the three-point line, and not shoot three-pointers." ”
Five times, it happens to be one time for the ball to be in the hands of everyone on the attacking side, and it seems that Anxi only needs everyone to defend once to complete a successful defense.
And so, the game started all over again.
Five passes, the five-man attacking group will have to think about it.
The five of them discussed it carefully, and on the defensive group's side, Anxi also discussed it with Jack Leod and Asik.
"Omir, you just stay in the forbidden area, and whoever hits the basket will make up for whomever you want. ”
Asik nodded, he understood.
"Jay, you're in charge of Michael and Troy, and Francisco and James are handed over to me. ”
After a little arrangement, the game begins.
McCarvey attacked from the outside, and he didn't rush to pass the ball, after all, he only had five passes.
McCarvey broke through with the ball, and Jack Crowder pushed it hard.
Anxi cruises in a mid-range position, ready to make up for it at any time.
McCarvey chose to pass, and the first pass was directly to James Anderson, who broke through and Anxi made up for it.
There was no hesitation, James Anderson passed the ball for the second time, and shifted to the other side in a large area, Garcia received the ball, Anxi couldn't catch up, Jack Crowder had to throw away McCarvey, hurry over, reach out and want to interfere, Garcia didn't force it, and continued to divide the ball.
The third time the ball was divided, Troy Daniels on the other side received the ball, this time Jack Crowder couldn't catch up, Anxi immediately dropped James Anderson and rushed over.
But it was still a step too late, and after cutting into the three-point line with the ball, Troy Daniels came with a pull-up jump shot and hit it accurately.
The offensive team spent three points and beat the three-man defense again.
An Xi shook his head, very helpless, but this time, he also saw some dawn of victory.
Where is the dawn of victory? In fact, it is very simple, as long as the outside An Xi and Jack Crowder are a little faster, and the defensive position is a little better, it is entirely possible to lock up the attacking five within five passes.
There was still more than half an hour left in the noon break, and An Xi shouted: "Go on!"
Then, continue the game.
Lloyd Pierce smiled and exchanged ideas with Brett Brown.
"Brett, what do you think of a defensive system with Ann, Jay, and Omir at the core?"
Brett Brown nodded: "Yes, I hope they can practice something." ”
"Anxi and Jack Crowder quickly supplemented and assisted quickly, Asik focused on protecting the basket, supplemented by two players who defended well, and the starting defensive system was constituted. ”
Brett Brown breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect that a proposal from James Anderson would allow the 76ers to find a good way to exercise the team's defensive system.
……
After a three-day break, on March 15, U.S. time, the 76ers faced the Grizzlies on their home court.
This season, the Grizzlies have continued their strong run of previous seasons, winning 38-27 so far this season, which is only a little worse than the 42-23 76ers.
The Grizzlies' continued strength is not because they have any superstars on their team, whether it is Zach Randolph, or Mike Conley, or Marc Gasol, they can't be considered superstars, at most they are an All-Star level player, and the Grizzlies' specialty in the top eight in the West is their defense.
Lionel Hollins single-handedly built a top-tier defense in the league, and while he left the Grizzlies this season, his successor, Dave Jogle, did a good job, maintaining the defense while slightly strengthening the team's offense.
Facing another strong opponent, the 76ers played a tough home game, and the game was still scorching in the second half of the third quarter, and both teams did not have high scoring percentages and scores.
At the end of the third quarter, the score was only 52:62, and the 76ers were 10 points behind, which was usually only the score of the 76ers at halftime.
Anxi's performance was not very good, under the defense of Tony Allen, Anxi only made 6 of 17 shots, and only relied on free throws to score 20 points.
In the final moment of the fourth quarter, the 76ers had a poor outlook, and Turner Sports commentators on the scene, Magic Johnson and McBrin believed that the Grizzlies, who had a more consistent defense in the fourth quarter, were more likely to win the game.
On the 76ers' side, during the break between the third and fourth quarters, Brett Brown arranged the tactical play of the fourth quarter.
When the scores of the two teams are evenly matched, and the shooting percentage is not high, and the defensive battle is staged, the best way to maintain the score is to attack the basket.
Therefore, Bret Brown's tactical arrangement is mainly based on attacking the basket.
Set up one side slightly, and the fourth quarter begins.
In the fourth quarter, the 76ers' lineup was point guard McCarvey, scoring guard Anxi, small forward Jack Crowder, power forward Pau Gasol and center Omir Asik.
On the Grizzlies side, Marc Gasol sits in the restricted area, big forward Zach Randolph, small forward is Taysha Ann Princes, and the outside line is Mike Conley and Tony Allen.
And in this game, Anxi's performance was not very good after encountering a tight defense.
In the final quarter, the 76ers attacked first, and Anxi broke through with the ball and faced Tony Allen's defense.
Tony Allen's defense was very aggressive, pressing Anxi's dribble, Anxi beckoned Asik to give him a block, and then both men ran towards the inside, and Marc Gasol decisively threw away Asik and wrapped Anxi.
Anxi chose to pass the ball, and the high lob ball was passed to Asik, who looked up inside to watch the basketball fly over, and then caught the ball and dunked.
The Grizzlies' offense, Marc Gasol's mid-range singles, turned and jumpers to beat Asik, and also hit a double-digit point difference.
The 76ers' offense, McCarvey controlled the ball from the outside, controlled the rhythm for a while, and then passed the ball to Anxi singles again.
Although Anxi's hit rate in this game was miserable, at the critical moment, the most reliable was Anxi.
After Anxi received the ball, he directly turned around and played with his back to the single, out of trust in Tony Allen's defense, the Grizzlies did not wrap it up, and let Anxi single Tony Allen.
Anxi pushed with his back and pushed to the mid-range position, the grizzlies felt bad, and Tayxia Amplins hurriedly ran over to help defend, but Anxi had already completed the turn and shot a backward jumper.
This is the conventional scoring method before Anxi did not develop the breakthrough, and it is still very stable in comparison, after the backward jumper, the basketball grazed the net, the ball went in, and the score difference was narrowed to 8 points again.
The Grizzlies continued to attack, and in the hands of Dave Jogger, the Grizzlies' offensive tempo was slightly faster, but still very slow, and the main positional warfare was a spectacle in today's fast-paced league.
McConley quickly pushed to the frontcourt, Zach Randolph made a quality screen, and McConley headed towards the basket. But just as he accelerated to the basket, Anxi quickly moved sideways, directly made up for it, and stood firmly in the restricted area, blocking McConley.
"Bang!"
McConley didn't realize that Anxi had already made up the defense, so he hit it headfirst.
Because of his unstable body, the basketball in McConley's hand was directly lost, and Anxi grabbed the basketball with a short body, and then quickly pushed forward.
The Grizzlies immediately retreated across the board, and as a defense-oriented team, their defense was still very fast.
The 76ers didn't play a fast attack, and Anxi simply suppressed the rhythm and focused on the success rate.
The 76ers have already hit two consecutive goals in the fourth quarter, which is a good development trend for the 76ers, who only scored 52 points in the first three quarters.
However, this goal, the 76ers did not score, the thing is like this, Anxi continued to play back, at the critical moment, Anxi still believes in his back skills, after all, Anxi's back-to-back singles can evolve a variety of offensive routines at critical moments.
This time, Anxi pushed to the free throw line with his back and turned to make a gesture, and Marc Gasol wrapped it up.
Anxi passes the ball and then Asik lays up under the basket, which is a must-score.
But Asik's hand slipped, and the layup went wide of the basket. (To be continued.) )
