What Lu Fei wants to fight is a triangular tactic.

The first thing to note is that the triangle offensive is not a clever offensive tactic at all. So much so that after Brian Shaw learned the essence of a triangle attack by the side of the Zen master, he confidently interviewed everywhere for the opportunity to be the head coach, and was frequently blasted out.

The essence of the triangle offense is all about: helping superstars create one-on-one singles opportunities.

"The coach of the pit bulls is such a tough guy!"

Lu Fei looked at the coach of the pit bulldog team, who was wearing a black suit and a blue tie and silver hair not far away, and was arranging tactics in a hurry, and a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart.

He knew that the run-and-gun tactics would be limited, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

The reason why NBA teams in the 90s rarely chose to shoot three-pointers and run bombs would never be effective was mainly because of the influence of the defensive rules at the time.

Since there is no handcheck restriction, the defender can unscrupulously put his hand on your waist when attacking the player on the street. On the one hand, it makes it very difficult for you to shoot or break through, and on the other hand, it is easier for defenders to predict your movements. In this case, the three-point shooting percentage is not guaranteed at all. So few people will treat the three-point as a regular offensive option, but just as an open penalty for the opponent's crazy packing.

There are exceptions: Miller, who has to take the ball with a defender and run back and forth like a butterfly, shooting 39.5 percent from three-point range and making less than five shots per game.

Lu Fei could even think of Reggie Miller hiding in the locker room, wiping his tears, pouting and crying: "The baby is tired of" such a spoof.

There's also Ray Allen and Hamilton, who chose to shoot two points, and their brothers are all in shape like long-distance runners anyway.

As a result, few people are willing to practice inefficient three-point shooting, so in the NBA in the 90s, everyone was stationed inside the three-point line, and the restricted area was like dumplings.

The reason why Lu Fei chose the run-and-bomb tactics as the team's tactics was because the defensive intensity of the college team was not so high at that time, and secondly, because compared with other tactics, the strong backcourt of the Huskies was more suitable for the run-and-bomb tactics.

But unexpectedly, in only the third regular season, he was sniped.

Lu Fei's hand feeling today is indeed very trendy, and many shots that should be scored did not score, but it cannot be denied that Gonzaga's defense is really annoying, and their hands are on Lu Fei's body all the time, making it difficult for him to get rid of it quickly, even if he shoots, it always feels like someone is pulling your pants.

Lu Fei is not the kind of person who is brainless, he understands that the inability to shoot is not only due to physical reasons or shooting feelings, but also because of tactics.

The head coach of the Bulldogs cleverly used the rules to interfere with the effect of their run-and-bomb.

So he chose to switch to a triangular tactic.

To put it bluntly, this tactic is to settle in a positional battle, using superstars to eat you raw by personal ability. Therefore, the triangle attack is recognized as a slow-paced and inefficient offensive tactic. To win with it, you need your superstar to have absolute offensive ability, and your team needs to be able to defend opponents less efficiently than you.

The Bulls' triangle tactics back then were basically like this: Pippen controlled the ball high, others were in position, and Jordan ran to ask for the ball. When Jordan forms a one-on-one opportunity, pass to Jordan for singles, and Jordan chooses to burst, throw, and pass according to the opponent's defensive situation, such as the characteristics of the opposing defender, the congestion of the inside line, and whether the bag is timely. When Jordan was caught without the ball, the other players attacked from the weak side and played more and less.

Therefore, Jordan can always be seen in various air cuts and back-to-the-ground runs, around the cover, and close to the defender, just to receive the ball.

Jordan's defense after receiving the ball is: the opposing defender is holding his waist, someone is coming up at any time to wrap it, and the opposite man is still standing under the basket waiting for a block. Therefore, Jordan needs to shoot directly after receiving the ball before the opponent comes up: or quickly get rid of the defender, choose to stop and shoot or enter the box according to the congestion of the penalty area. And Jordan's ability to quickly get rid of defenders, start and stop to find breakthroughs and shooting space, and then finish in the case of limited space in positional battles is a bit perverted.

Lu Fei knew that he was not Jordan, and Brandon Roy was not Jordan.

However, when facing the opponent's stubborn and mad dog-like defense, in the face of the absence of handcheck restrictions, this is the only tactic that does not require more practice and can still play efficiently.

Gonzaga's head coach Mark Fu had apparently studied the footage of the last two games of the Huskies, and it was clear from the frantic defensive attitude and annoying palms of the pit bulls that they were determined to carry out this harassing defense to the end.

Lu Fei pouted: "That is, you can still defend like this now." ”

Anthony Washington was stunned as he listened: "What did you say?" ”

Lu Fei glanced at him and said, "I heard the coach say that you should defend your mother well." ”

This kind of defense really only happened in that era.

In the era of nohandcheck in 2019, people who are too tight to defend will pass by with a turn, and it is easy to pay fouls.

So everyone practiced three points, and seven or eight people in the whole court stood in a half circle along the three-point line, and the space on the court was further increased. Now there are still three seconds to defend, and after holding the ball past the opposing defender, there is basically no one in the penalty area; The biggest problem that a player without a team can face after slipping into the air is the fear of being in a no-man's land.

Even so, the icing on the cake is that you can STEP0.1.2 when you break through, and freely choose whether to take an extra step when you go to the basket, and shake off those possible co-defenses.

Jordan gave the league a taste of sweetness, relying on a traditional style of play, unsolvable offense, perverted defense, and pleasing aesthetics, he made the center era his era, and also made the NBA, a second-rate league in the United States, into the current gold-absorbing ability.

In order to fill the void after Jordan's retirement, the league must continue to manufacture and package this kind of superstar, so from Hardaway, Kobe, Iverson, Carter, Maddy, to later James, Jordan's successors have come one after another.

But basketball is a long-term sport after all, and Jordan's difficulties will also be encountered by his successors. But Jordan's ability, the successors seem to be almost meaningless.

At this time, the league changed the rules to help the successors solve the problem: Catching the ball? Move the cover blow loose. Struggling to get rid of defenders? HANDCHECK IS PROHIBITED. Scared to hit the penalty area and look at the opposite center? Set up a defense for three seconds and drive the opposing center out. It's not easy to deal with the belated defense, set up a reasonable collision zone, relax the scale of walking and blowing penalties, and you can go inside.

The advantage of playing this way is that outside superstars have sprung up one after another, and the perverted data is changing with each passing day. Basketball is also becoming more and more popular, the entry threshold of technical level is lowered, the participation of the masses is increased, and the market is increasing. The downside is that the skills of professional players are getting rougher and rougher, the game is getting less confrontational, there are fewer and fewer unbelievable moves, and basketball has become a monotonous empty three-pointer, empty basket and free throw. No one can hold anyone, one side leads by more than ten or twenty points, and the other side exceeds more than ten or twenty points, as if it is joking.

At that time in the 90s, watching a game, enduring halftime before going to the bathroom, the suffocation feeling of the two sides chiseling a ball by ball, the pleasure of picking up a wallet when the team they supported occasionally played into an empty cut, and the panic when they were beaten into a wave of 6:0 small climax by the opposite side, these are gradually becoming strange.

Watching the 2019 game, the TV was half on in the first three quarters, the computer was swiping the forum, and the mobile phone was looking at the circle of friends.

However, the halftime cheerleading performance was more attractive to Lu Fei.

So much so that Lu Fei complained about the boredom of the game when he followed Popovich to an away game.

Popovich just smiled and said lightly: "If you were asked to play, I think you would prefer the current game to the 90s game." ”

Lu Fei looked at the Gonzaga players on the court like bulldogs who were not afraid of death, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Old fox, you're right!"
