Chapter 167: Contradictions
'Everybody's defended well, keep it up. Everyone was running, and Matt came up for Jamal. Kyle! It's time to do something. Sam opened the game with a clear and unmistakable explanation of the next tactics, and then took out the tactics board and carefully instructed him.
"Sir! Are we really going to do that? I could have taken out my analysis and tried it out. At the end, Kyle asked Sam softly at the end.
"That's for later!" Sam's brows were furrowed, but he was extremely angry, it was too much! It is a big no-no for a player to interfere in the tactical arrangement. He's made it clear enough that Kyle is still holding on, which is a bit outrageous. "Do your thing and execute the tactics."
When Kyle heard it, he was alone again? Say okay to increase the running position of the air cut? What about Jamal as the axis? It's all! There hasn't been a word about it so far, and there is no way to talk about training drills, and Kyle feels like he's been fooled. Originally, the Nuggets were strong on the inside, especially defensively, but now Jamal has been taken down, and he is still a fart, I really don't know what Sam thinks?
Shaking his head helplessly, Kyle had no choice but to play. Listening to this tone, I'm still impatient!
On the other side, George Carr did the same, and that was Anthony's singles. When Sam sent Barnes on the field to replace Jamal, Karl's heart fluttered. Of course, he knew that the Raptors had this tactic, but he didn't think the other party would use it now, he didn't expect Sam to be so bold and play this small lineup in the first quarter. Carl glanced at Sam, and it just so happened that Sam was looking at each other as well, and the two of them had a good understanding. Then he snorted coldly in his heart, and turned his eyes back on the field.
The Raptors are clearly trying to pick up the speed and open up space at the same time, which is also convenient for Kyle to break through. Karl knew it, but he sneered more in his heart, and he gestured and shouted a term, which is a kind of tactic.
Kyle held the ball for half the court, lowered his eyebrows, and was extremely annoyed in his heart, saying so nicely, it turned out that everything was an illusion. But now is not the time to dwell on this, victory is the key.
Everyone pulled away, Kyle and Miller were one-on-one, but the Nuggets' Camby was sitting inside, and the other four were lined up inside the three-point line, besieging the city and playing reinforcements, that is, joint defense tactics. The advantage is that you can fill in the position quickly, and the disadvantage is that you are afraid of three points. Kyle swept everyone's positions, upset, this special pass is not a pass, not a pass!
As soon as Kyle moved, everyone in the Nuggets shrank back, and someone immediately came to fill in after the pass was passed. Then it came and went to Kyle, Kyle stretched out his hand and signaled, Bosh pulled over to block the dismantling, and then dismantled after blocking, Bosh did not have a middle distance. Kyle grabbed the rebound in the penalty area, leaned on Camby and took two steps, but he couldn't break through, Buckner came over to wrap up, he could only step back and shoot on the spot, wipe the board!
The Nuggets' offense, Martin pouted his ass to be in position, and Miller passed it very consciously. Barnes was dead behind. But the difference between size and strength is really obvious, Martin chiseled two steps, wiped his body under the basket and threw it in! Although Martin's singles ability is really clumsy, it is still not a big problem to bully Barnes, who is one size younger.
It was just one offensive and defensive round that saw that Sam's substitution was nonsense, and then it was proved that as well.
When he came back, Kyle really couldn't rush in, and no matter how deep he went, he either made a mistake or shot a hat, he put Sam's arrangement on hold for the time being, and chose to transmit the ball, passing back and forth, with little time, and finally Peterson took the blame and was iron in the middle distance!
Then Martin wanted to replicate the drama of the previous round and singled Barnes, and this time the Raptors reacted quickly and helped defend early in the morning. Miller answered Anthony for a single, and Melon didn't have a pull-up jumper! But under the basket is the world of the two generals, Bosh and Barnes were directly squeezed out of position, and Camby made up for the dunk.
Jalen holds the ball and singles again!
Anthony hits a high jumper with the help of a screen.
Kyle breaks through the middle distance and has one more.
Miller didn't break through and shoot, Martin didn't get the rebound and make up for the basket, and Camby made up again!
……
Sam's face was extremely ugly, and the disadvantage of rebounding was not the main reason, but the players on the court tampered with his tactical arrangement, which was the most fatal and infuriating, especially Kyle, who actually passed at the top of the arc and did not go deep into the basket at all. Plainly speaking, everyone pulled away, Kyle broke through, Barnes cut in, Jalen and Peterson ambushed, and Bosh arced to block and dismantle. Now the situation is that one time Kyle will be alone with the ball, and the other time Bosh will be alone! Then the others will stick a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and throw one and I will burst out. Tactics? Literacy?
When the starters went to rest, the Raptors scored just 18 points, while the Nuggets trailed by a full eight points with 26 points. Sam's face was gloomy, he didn't speak, he didn't call a timeout in between, he just let the players play on their own. Everyone can see that Sam is angry! Why? This is everyone's question, backward, and not the end of the world. They don't know that, in Sam's mind, the end of the world is still serious, and Kyle taking the lead in offending his authority is simply unforgivable. As the core of his single-handed correction, it is a person who repays him like this, and everyone will be angry.
Kyle has no resentment in his heart, knowing that breaking through and tearing apart will not break other people's defenses, he actually arranges it like this, knowing that Barnes can't resist Martin, and he still doesn't call a timeout for substitutions, knowing that the speed of this set of tactics can't be improved, and he is still stubborn, which player on the Nuggets court is slow? No! The most important thing is to change the strategy, but it is to fool him, using time to push the block, Kyle feels that he is not respected, he feels offended.
Among the Nuggets bench players, Earl Boykins is more active, and he has repeatedly broken through. In fact, they also have a strong player inside, Nene Hilario, a brilliant young player, but on November 1, 2005, in the first game of the new season against the San Antonio Spurs, Nene played only 3 minutes in the first quarter and collided with Tim Duncan, resulting in a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, a torn middle ligament, and a torn meniscus, and the season was reimbursed, and this season was None's contract year. Otherwise, the Nuggets will be stronger.
The Raptors are old and young, and they have no advantage at all, mainly because Calderon is limited by Boigins and can't break through this line of defense, and the arrangement behind it can't work at all.
Until Kyle and other main players were replaced, the Raptors were already behind by twelve points.
Barnes didn't play this time, but the situation still didn't get better.
By the end of the half, the Raptors had trailed by 16 points, and the disadvantages were fully revealed, and they were suppressed all the time, and they were back-to-back, and fatigue occupied the hearts of the players.
"Bosh burst into the basket, beautiful pass, oh! Oh my God, it's covered, and Camby has four blocks. Looks like things aren't going well! What do you think went wrong? Buddy! "Lorne was depressed, he was pressed to the ground and beaten wildly, no one could be in a good mood, let alone his home stadium resident commentator.
The problem is obvious, Camby is strong enough to intimidate the basket, and Kyle is just as jealous, which leads to the fact that their defense is impeccable and the Raptors have no way to score effectively. And the Nuggets protect the rebounds better and handle the details more reasonably. On the other hand, the Raptors! Except for Kyle and Bosh who take turns to play alone, the presence of the others is basically absent, and they don't pull out space, and they don't do a good enough job on the defensive end, and the confrontation is not as tough as the Nuggets, and I think they are tired. ”
"Too bad! So what do you do? ”
"The Raptors guys have done their best! I don't have too good advice either. ”
"What a disappointment! It seems that we are not strong enough. ”
"It should be said that Kyle and Chris are not strong enough, and if one of them can break out, then all of the Nuggets' defensive strategies will be reduced to ashes, it's as simple as that."
The official paused, Kyle and the others got a chance to breathe, Sam still had a black face, no tactics were arranged, and he didn't listen to the arrangement, he arranged it! What kind of victory and win are you talking about in this way? And Sam really doesn't have a very good way to deal with the Nuggets. He thought about calling Kyle into his office and scolding him after the game, leaving his inflated mind to dry up. As for doing this on the spot, then infighting is possible, and Sam doesn't want the media to catch clues and then make a big fuss and disturb people's minds.
As he was about to play, Kyle walked over to Jamal and whispered, yes! He decides to arrange his own tactics, Sam ignores them, he doesn't care about victory, and Kyle can't afford to ignore them. Just like he did in St. Joseph, as for the consequences, if he wins, there will be no consequences, and if he loses, then he is willing to bear this pot, it is better than doing nothing like this and dying in vain! How is it possible to give up victory?
"Jamal! Wait until you hold the ball in the middle, distribute the ball, and I'll cut through the space. ”
"What? I'm here to distribute the ball? Jamal was dumbfounded, "Sam didn't arrange it that way. ”
"You can do it! With your height, pay attention to the ball, move over and you can give the ball to the best guy. Of course! You can shoot or break through on your own. We've got to make a change, I don't think you're going to watch the team fail, do you? ”
"Khasam..."
"No, but! I'll take care of all the consequences. ”
"It's crazy!" Jamal thinks it's crazy, he comes to hold the ball, share the ball! Hell, it's not a joke, is it?
"There's no time, trust me! All right? Kyle walked away and went to gather his teammates.
The middle circle position, with Kyle as the core, is in a circle, Kyle briefly explained, and everyone thought Kyle was crazy after listening to it. But Kyle didn't wait for everyone to oppose before calling Jamal to serve!
Sam saw it too, his eyes narrowed slightly, his pupils constricted, what was this for? Cheer it up? Or arrange Kyle's so-called tactics? Instinctively told him the latter. It's a rebellion! That was Sam's first reaction. (To be continued.) )
