Chapter 648: Invincible Triangle (Big Chapter Asking for Votes~)

Tang Qian's passing ability and ability to divide the ball have actually reached the quasi-first-class level of the inside, and the 6 half-assist crystal bricks are not fake. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

You must know that Zhang Dashuai, the peak of the league, is the only center assist king in the league, you say he is a brush? Ok, first of all, let's not say that the judgment of assist data in that era was far stricter than now, and there was no such thing as coherent action, if you convert the assist data of that era, it is estimated that Chamberlain must have at least 10+ or more average assists per game. No kidding, this is still a little to say, the previous calculation method can be called harsh, basically either catch the ball and shoot or go straight to the basket, and the dribble is not counted...... And according to the memories of the "three pairs of originators" Big O, the NBA air relay used to be, not counting the number of assists!

So it's normal for the data to go up 20%.

Therefore, Tang Qian's assist ability has long reached a terrible level, but because his offensive ability has not been developed and the threat is too small, he has been ignored. This game was the first time, Tang Qian used his passing and assist abilities to help the team win.

Looking at Rodman and Harper, who came over from the bag, Tang Qian did not panic, but made a posture that intended to make a move, and after attracting the two people more closely, he raised his hand and pushed, and the basketball flew straight to the bottom corner of the Bulls' half.

And the person standing in that place is the supersonic team's Ray. Alan.

Thunder. Allen received the ball in the bottom corner, calmly shot in the vacant position, and the basketball "brushed" and passed through the center of the net steadily.

Looking back at the time, there were only 2.9 seconds left for the Chicago Bulls.

It may not have been a final shot in the true sense of the word, but it was a key blow, and the Bulls immediately called a timeout.

Although it was a front-court shot, the ball was still too hasty, and Jordan's three-point shooting ability has not been too good, so with a "bang", the basketball hit the iron, and the Tang Qian team won the second game. The series was tied 1-1.

Most of the Tang Submarine team rushed towards Ray. Allen pounced, but only head coach Jerry. Sloan seemed to see something else in his eyes, and he began to look at the Lakers' No. 29 again.

Maddy scored the most points in this game, with 29 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, and he was voted the best player of the game. However, Tang Qian's data is not bad, he got 21 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks of all-round data, as for why the best player of the game was given to Maddie, this is still the inertia of the NBA, usually speaking, scoring is the highest level of data.

The player with the most points in a game, if he basically wins, can't run this honor.

Unless you type out perverted stats or triple-doubles or something, you can compete with it.

On the second day of training, Jerry. Sloan called Tang Qian aside alone and said, "Hot, you play a little more strategy and ball distribution tomorrow, I estimate that the Bulls will definitely make a targeted arrangement for your off-ball offense, Jackson's adaptability and targeting ability is very strong." Tang Qian was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said: "I can understand that I have reduced my shots against the arrangement, but how to respond and divide the ball?" Are you kidding me, sir? "There's a reason why Tang Qian asked that, because it's clearly Jerry. Sloane wanted him to play and do the shaft in the third game, which ...... How is this possible?

"How do you know if you don't try?" Jerry. Sloane's answer made Tang Qian cry and laugh a little: "But I haven't played the strategy and response play, I'm afraid of ......."

"There's a first time for everything, and I think you should be fine." Jerry. After Sloan finished speaking, he asked Tang Qian to play strategies throughout the day, from high-level strategies to low-level strategies, and tried them all over again. In the end, it was found that although Tang Qian's high-position strategy can also be played, because he does not have the middle distance, there are relatively few changes in the high-position strategy, and he can only pass the ball and respond in the low position...... It's a lot better.

Although he also lacks the ability to attack independently, the ability to block people and cover, Tang Qian is good, and there is a lot of room for adjustment, so it is enough. And the biggest discovery is that Jerry. Sloan believes that the Lakers' No. 29 has an excellent sense of off-ball play, and he is willing to do the job. Many interior players in the NBA are reluctant to do this, because there is neither data nor bright spots in the no-ball strategy, and because they have to block people to cover the setter, they can't concentrate on competing for frontcourt rebounds.

This is a thankless job in the current data-first alliance.

Scoring goals has nothing to do with you, rebounding and assists have nothing to do with you, as the middleman who organizes the offense and sorts out the offense, the planner is almost equivalent to "behind-the-scenes work", this kind of "hard work" without much attention is even more boring than just doing "blue collar". Therefore, there are fewer and fewer interior players in the league who will respond, and they are basically concentrated on European interior players. And you must know that in the 90s, the ability to play is a basic ability of the center, from O'Neill to Olajuwon, there is no one who is not proficient in it. On the other hand, the current domestic inside line of the United States does not even understand what the strategy should be.

Eyes are always only staring at those cold statistics.

Therefore, in order to maximize Tang Qian's response ability, Sloan set the position for Tang Qian in the third game, which is to focus on off-ball strategy. And this task, Tang Qian didn't say a word, just nodded and accepted.

"Sir, it's okay for me to play the role of the mastermind, but if I don't play well......"

"Don't worry, I believe in you, just behave well." Before Tang Qian finished speaking, he was killed by Jerry. Sloan interrupted, then pushed back in one gulp.

Of course, he doesn't know what Sloan thinks, in fact, for such a team, there are many stars, and the ball-holding strategy needs to occupy a lot of ball time, but the off-ball strategy is more inclined to Sloan's tactical needs. In addition, the off-ball strategy can also cover up the problem of No. 29's lack of independent offensive ability to the greatest extent, and the offense is also affected by a high assist rate, and the combination of the two is simply suitable.

At the start of the third game, sure enough, the Bulls strengthened the high-level blocking and dismantling of Tang Qian, and the "Zen Master" deserved to be called the Zen Master and found a way to deal with it. It is to use Rodman to force a single defense, and then not give him a chance to shoot easily without the ball. As for attacking with the ball, then it's okay to just go with No. 29, and his ability to score is counted.

Because of his size and height, Rodman has a hard defense in the low post, which is actually not outstanding, but he is a must for entanglement and interference. It seems that the players who came out of the "bad boy army" back then have this magic. Dead stickers without the ball and forcing are one of Rodman's strengths, and the shots of him and Malone fighting without the ball and falling in three steps are still classics.

Small movements, fake falls, and simply do everything, which made Tang Qian's off-ball offense quickly contained, and he couldn't play the power of the first two games. And now that Kidd is missing from the starting lineup, Tang Qian's attributes in this area have been affected.

If Tang Qian had the ability to attack independently in a low position, then the "Zen Master" would be looking for death if he arranged it like this, but unfortunately, he could only admit it now.

At this time, Sloan also reacted, making a gesture on the sidelines, and the players on the field immediately understood.

Curry handed the ball to Tang Qian, who was standing near the free throw line, and then the remaining four people all ran without the ball. This scene made the "Zen Master" Jackson slightly surprised.

Four running without the ball? This is...... Is this the 29th to respond? Do shaft ???

But can he? Is Sloan suspicious?

It's normal for Jackson to be suspicious, in the previous encounter, the Lakers No. 29 did not show this ability at all, so the "Zen Master" subconsciously felt that No. 29 was just a strong blue-collar with excellent off-ball ability. You asked him to suddenly go to the strategy and do the axis? This is not Jerry. Sloan deliberately disrupts audio-visual?

Unexpectedly, Tang Qian really passed a good ball in the high post. McGrady makes a layup in the air.

Jackson continued to observe, and it wasn't long before the Eastern center made another good pass at the free-throw line, which was a secondary assist, because the final pass assist was Stephen. Curry, so Tang Qian's statistically, there is no increase in data on the surface. But as a head coach, the "Zen Master" didn't see it so one-sidedly, he called a timeout, and then laid out a targeted tactic.

Aren't you going to play high with the ball? Okay, I'll just empty you, one more person shrinks the inner line, and see how you pass it.

This move is indeed very ruthless, and it can be regarded as poking Tang Qian's current life, Tang Qian can only shoot at a medium distance without defense, and then hit the iron basket. The Bulls took the opportunity to fight back, and Jordan took advantage of the opponent's unstable footing to break through to the layup, which not only scored, but also caused Ben. Wallace was fouled on defense.

Brush~

Hit the free throw, 2+1 succeeded, and 3 points were scored.

And all this is Jerry. What Sloan expected, the reason why he let Tang Qian fight like this was to take the lead and take advantage of the surprise to be a few ahead. Once the opponent sees it through, change it immediately, and let the number 29 switch from a ball-holding strategy to a non-ball strategy.

Grant was preparing to go to the right side of the move Ben. Wallace, but unexpectedly only half of the run, his eyes went black, and his body forcibly stopped. Looking up, it turned out that at some point, the Lakers' No. 29 had blocked his way.

Root. Wallace dunks it!

A few rounds later, it was the Lakers' No. 29 who responded without the ball, delaying Harper's outside pursuit. Curry made a three-pointer.

This made the "Zen Master" brows on the sidelines gradually wrinkle, because he didn't understand what kind of power an inside line who could respond to the team could bring. But this kind of interior line, there are very few people in the league, and people with this ability are sometimes reluctant to do this, if the Bulls can have one more such person...... That overall scoring efficiency will definitely be improved by a notch!

It's a pity that Grant is not good at this aspect, he can only be said to be decent, and he cares a lot about statistics, which leads him to play and cannot be biased towards the strategy side. Rodman has the ability and awareness, but like Grant, Rodman's first thought is always to grab rebounds, and as for the strategy, it must depend on his mood.

There are very few people who play like the Lakers 29.

Now know why Duncan's stats have never been so perverted, but have always been the unshakable pillars of the Spurs? The "No. 21 rookie" is a strategy that responds to the willingness, and the inside line belongs to the top level in history, and if he doesn't play much, his personal data statistics will definitely rise a lot.

Under Tang Qian's off-ball strategy, Tang Qian's offense became more and more fluent. Sloan himself was a master of blocking and pick-and-roll tactics, and for a while the Bulls couldn't find a particularly good way to come out. Don't blow it, don't say anything else, the Tang Qian's "star spirit" is not weaker than the Chicago Bulls. Tang Qian+Ben. Wallace + Ray. Allen + Curry + Maddy, now among the five people on the court, each of them is an All-Star, plus there are also peak Kidd and peak Mutombo on the bench, and there are 2 All-Stars, a total of seven, no, there is also a Chandler, a total of eight All-Star players! Maybe there is no historical supergiant like Jordan in it, or even a quasi-supergiant, but the victory is in the number and balance, and the Bulls will not be comfortable with this kind of lineup.

At halftime, the two serve were tied at 49-49 at halftime.

Tang Qian's data half-time data may not be very good because there are too many strategies, but he is equivalent to an inside organizer, and he also plays a role in revitalizing the whole team. Sloan imagined that it would be even better. And Tang Qian also faintly felt that his assist crystal brick seemed to have a tendency to break through.

Originally...... Response is also a type of assist ability?

Tang Qian hadn't thought of this before.

In fact, as a great interior player, strategy is the foundation, Russell, Chamberlain, Olajuwon, Abdul-Jabbar, who of these people will not be able to single-handedly respond? Especially Russell and Chamberlain, the former is a super blue-collar worker, who can lead the team to eight consecutive championships as the core, with a total of 11 championship rings in his career, how did he come about? Super responsiveness is key! What about Chamberlain? Not to mention the only center assist king in NBA history, how did he lead the team to end the myth of the Celtics' eight-game hegemony? By scoring? NONONO~ Just look at the statistics, you can see that it relies on strategy and passing assists.

Each has its own merits.

Russell's strategy is the strongest in NBA history, and Chamberlain's strategy is weaker than the former, but his assist ability and passing ability are better than the former, so it is not for nothing that the two of them can play fiercely in the 60s. Both are monsters within monsters, one dominating the championship and the other dominating the data.

However, there is a doubt that has always existed in Tang Qian's mind, this Bull team gives him the feeling that it is really not as strong as the fifth-layer rocket, is it because of the kindness of the "different space"?

From the third quarter onwards, the Bulls put everything aside and got serious.

In this round of the series, in fact, until the end of the first half, the Bulls were a little "led by the nose". Jerry. Sloan's ever-changing blocking and dismantling, and Tang Qian's "sudden rise", all caught Chicagoans a little off guard. Coupled with the cancellation of the Hand-Cheking rule, the Bulls' super outside defense has essentially weakened a lot. This is one of the reasons why Tang Qian felt that the Bulls were inferior to the fifth-tier Rockets before.

But don't forget, this Bulls team is not a bull in the traditional sense, "Different Space" gave the Tang Submarine team 8 All-Stars, and the opponent has not been greatly strengthened? First of all, their number one player, Michael. Jordan, who is more powerful than the original space, how powerful he is, Tang Qian will understand it soon.

At halftime, Jordan was dissatisfied and loudly reprimanded the whole team, and then "Zen Master" Jackson came out and made adjustments to this round of the series. No matter how the opponent's tactics change, we just have to play the triangle attack ourselves.

It looks like a very unnutritious word, but chewing it carefully, hidden deep machine.

On the defensive end, Jackson's instructions are to block the outside line and maintain a normal level of interior defense, that is, it is forgivable and tolerated to be forgiven by the opponent's interior goals, but the outside offense must be fully contained. This is a very clever static brake, because Jackson knows that the Lakers do not have a basket at No. 29, and the Tang Qian's overall interior offense tends to be weak, so their threat is very limited compared to the outside. In this way, even if it is included in a few strategies and covers, it will not hurt, anyway, the Bulls can win 6 championships in the league, and they do not rely on the inside.

Whether it's on the offensive end or the defensive end, it's not the big head of the inside.

So it's good to pinch the outside line completely.

After all, the outside players are outside players, and most of the time they are still active outside the paint area, so the inside line only needs to do their duty, and there is no need to put too much pressure on them.

Jackson's theory has been endorsed by all the players of the Bulls, and in the state of triangle offense, the outside line of the Tang Qian team has been frequently eaten. People don't talk nonsense with you, they don't play any complicated tactical positions with you, it's just a triangle flow, creating full one-on-one opportunities for the stars. Looking silly? This is precisely where the triangle attack is difficult to defeat, because the more critical the moment, the more you look at the true colors of the stars. Your tactical scoring ability at critical moments is not as good as the triangle attack, how to win?

Many people say that Winter is the originator of the triangle offense, and there is no problem with this, but a few people know that in fact, Phil. Jackson's triangle offensive philosophy and Winter's triangle offensive philosophy are very different? This is described in both Winter's autobiography and Jackson's autobiography, with the former's triangle offense being used to play "average basketball" or "civilian basketball" at the University of Kansas, somewhat similar to the Princeton tactic. Of course, it's not about the specific tactical setting, but in terms of concept, Winter's version of the triangle offense is "equal chance" and uses an ordinary lineup to achieve results. And this "equal opportunity" is none other than the famous Mielke. Jordan made a pejorative summary when he resisted the triangle offense at the time.

In fact, a little deeper, Winter is not the real founder of the Triangle Offensive, the real founder is the former USC Sam Brown. Barry, Winter from Sam. Barry was reformed and systematized, and in 1962 a book was published, which was the first time that the American people really knew the term "triangular offensive." However, Winter's own coaching in the NCAA was not a success, because his team never broke through the Final 4, let alone won a championship. Therefore, his set of theories, before the "Zen master", no one really looked up to it.

That's why Jordan was so repulsive when he first came into contact.

Just kidding, Jordan is a data maniac, he is an inspirational person who wants to monopolize the league's scoring title and play "equal opportunity basketball"? Sorry, but this is not the will of the 23rd. So why did he accept it again in the end? This is because the triangular offensive promoted by "Zen Master" Jackson is completely different from the original "contrary" concept. The essence of the triangle offense of "Zen Master" is not to pursue any "egalitarianism" and "equal opportunity basketball", but his triangle offense concept is superstar basketball, which is a "super tactic" that serves the singles of stars.

Winter had a famous bickering with Jordan back then, with the former saying that there was no I in the team. Jordan wittily retorted that there is no one in Team, but there is one in Win. That's the core clash between the team and me, and Jackson blends those two things, fusing Winter's Western flex style with the hard-hitting style of the East that he learned with the Knicks, and then finding a balance between Team and I, which is known as the triangle offense.

Tactics have the shadow of Winter, but in terms of concept, it can be said that they are not the same thing at all.

Later, after Rodman came to the Bulls, he also said the "essence" in one sentence: Isn't the triangle offense just a pass to Jordan for a single?

"Zen Master" said with a smile: It is to pass the ball to Jordan singles, but it is to let Jordan play one-on-one singles, not reluctant singles after falling into the bag.

Although this dialogue is superficial, it undoubtedly reveals the fact that the concept of "Zen Master" Jackson's triangle offense is completely different from Winter's original triangle offense. The triangle offense of the "Zen Master" is to play superstar basketball.

So every time it comes to a critical moment, the Bulls can stand out, relying on this.

Do you have to tactically be easier to score? Easier to attack the basket? More likely to have vacancies? Tighter defensive rotation? Unfortunately, my tactics are superstar singles, and this happens to be the safest way to attack at critical moments. You are not as good as others in terms of concept, and it is not uncommon that you can't beat it at critical moments.

The basic essence of American basketball is to put basketball in the hands of the best players. Jackson is the most faithful in this regard.

So in the third game, the Tang Qians lost by 3 points, they didn't play badly, and even let Jerry in the slow-paced and less round game. Sloan wasn't too dissatisfied. But in the end...... Obliterated by the singles concept of the superstar of the triangle offense.

The same was true in the fourth game, the first three quarters of the two sides were inseparable, but in the end, the Bulls relied on Jordan and forced a single to take away the game.

Game 5 was still a remake of the first three, with the Bulls winning the final quarter, if not just the last few minutes.

The ability of the triangle offense to create one-on-one singles for a superstar is truly extraordinary.

And the pinnacle Michael. Jordan is undoubtedly the most powerful outside singles, and compared with him in singles, he can basically only die out.

The series was 1-4, and the Tang Submarine team was eliminated, and the second chance was exhausted.

Tang Qian sat on the edge of the "calendar board", and he suddenly felt that this was a team that was difficult to defeat at all, because no matter how fierce the battle was in front of you, you would be defeated by the opponent at the critical time in the end. This feeling is mentally painful.

It feels like the front is in vain.

Although Tang Qianqian made a breakthrough in assisting crystal bricks in this round of the series and grew to 7, he still couldn't stop the team's loss.

Yes, it is difficult to solve on the field, but in the end they all lost, so what is the point of the difficult solution in front?

PS: There is another chapter, it should be very late to finish writing, so let's get up and read it again during the day~
