Chapter 927: Vegetable Abuse Tactics
Shit! Shit! Shit! ”
After the game against the Bucks, Li Liang was furious in the locker room and scolded "bullshit" a few times.
There was silence in the locker room, and no one dared to speak.
After losing the game against the Heat, the Kings defeated the Magic on the road in Game 5.
Li Liang scored 40 points in the game against the Magic, and finally the king won 108:102, which was very reluctant.
This state is really different from last season when I was with the Thunder, and I couldn't clock in at halftime.
But after winning the game, Li Liang can still endure it.
However, on the heels of Milwaukee, the king suffered a major defeat.
Against the young Bucks, the Kings were once again in a state of dumbness on the offensive end.
But the Bucks are in full bloom, and role forward players like Mirza Teletovic actually scored 22 points on consecutive outside shots, and the Bucks scored six double-doubles, and they beat the Kings by 121-100, 21 points at home.
This was one of the worst defeats Li Liang has suffered in recent years.
Li Liang was also in average form in this game, scoring 27 points.
However, Li Liang is in good condition in this game, and it is estimated that he will not be able to save it.
Li Liang can attack with one shoulder, but on defense, he really can't carry it alone.
At the beginning of the Lakers, he played the role of lubricant to keep the whole team running.
The Lakers' real defensive Optimus Prime is Howard.
During the Clippers period, Jordan Jr. and Paul's single defense was first-class, and the Clippers' offense was too strong.
Needless to say, the Pacers have a solid defensive foundation and are the toughest of the four champions.
The Thunder is a combination of the Clippers and the Pacers, with excellent offense and good defensive foundation, and deserves to be one of the strongest teams in history.
The current Kings, the team lineup is okay, but it is really far from being really strong.
After losing to the Bucks, Li Liang was furious in the locker room and tore off his elegant mask.
Erudite? Elegant fart.
As a coach, there is no one who can be truly elegant.
Elegance is pretended to be seen by outsiders.
The profession of coaching is extremely stressful, the work intensity is very high, it is very brain-consuming, and the emotional ups and downs are drastic.
The scolding is still light, according to Li Liang's temper, he really wants to hit someone.
Li Liang scolded everyone one by one according to their performance.
He tried to use as little swear as possible, saying about 139 "FXXK" and 88 "Shit" in the process.
After the fire was over, Li Liang's mood calmed down a bit.
Emotions are cathartic, but problems still need to be solved.
After returning to the hotel, Mike Brown took the initiative to find Li Liang and asked him, "Bruce, about defense, is it ......"
After a few games, Mike Brown also began to have some doubts about whether the "swarm defense" could adapt to the rhythm and intensity of the NBA.
Maybe this kind of defense is only suitable for those lower leagues.
In the highest level of basketball, it is impossible to disrupt the opponent's offense by relying on defensive contact like a bee sting.
The disorder is nothing more than the king's own defense.
In fact, Brown's defensive Curry has a lot of good, safe, and proven effective defensive systems by experience.
That's something he's proven to work with the Spurs, with the Cavaliers, with the Lakers.
Defense, to put it bluntly, is still the same set, intensity, rotation, wrapping, blocking and putting the edge, plus a little small material for joint defense.
The main focus is still on offense, and the Kings should be an offensive powerhouse.
Li Liang looked at Brown, who was about to speak, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Mike, I believe in your ability, I have a season of patience to let you realize your defensive philosophy." It's only a few shows, don't be so easily discouraged. I've won too many regular season games, maybe I should go back a little bit, shouldn't I? ”
Brown didn't expect Li Liang to be so optimistic.
In each of his past four seasons, each of his teams has won more than 60 regular season games.
In terms of confidence and mentality to win, no one can compare to Li Liang.
Hearing him say this, Brown nodded and said, "I'll find out the problem as soon as possible." ”
Li Liangdao: "Let me make a suggestion, why don't you invite the inventor of this tactic over and ask him for advice?" Or, let him be a consultant? ”
In this way, Brown thinks it's okay, Coach Watson is not a worldly master, he himself is a book that sells defensive tactics.
Let me point it out, and the effect will definitely be different.
"However, you have to pay for hiring someone yourself, after all, your salary is quite high." Li Liang added.
Mike Brown thought to himself, sure enough, he still has to bleed himself!
……
The Kings' terrible road trip is still underway.
After winning one game, losing one game, winning one game, losing one game, the Kings continued their style of taking a step forward and taking a step back.
In Toronto, they faced the Raptors and finally played a beautiful offense and a tough defense.
It may be that the "swarm defense" is really effective for teams that are not in good offensive form or are not flexible enough tactically.
The Raptors were extremely uncomfortable with the swarm, with 16 turnovers in the first half.
This defensive ability to make mistakes is really strong.
It's not because of pressing, it's about getting the opponent into a very uncomfortable attacking rhythm.
The Raptors' ball carriers, playmakers, are always harassed.
If you hesitate and hesitate, your passing will stall and your mistakes will naturally increase.
If you make too many mistakes, your mentality will collapse, and you will make more mistakes, and the offense will fall into a bad quagmire.
The Kings led the Raptors by 17 points at halftime, and in the second half, Gordon hit back-to-back shots from the outside.
This goods, it is really accurate, throw it when you catch it, and throw it when you throw it.
Rondo kept feeding Gordon, who hit four three-pointers in the third quarter.
Li Liang couldn't help but coil Gordon's big round head and said, "You can't even out other games?" Now that you're so far ahead, what's the use of you getting so in? ”
"Can I not go in, then?"
"You'd better come in."
Li Liang was afraid that Gordon would get up, he was really afraid.
Being a coach is equivalent to being a parent, and I am no longer as chic as when I was single.
The Kings defeated the Raptors 111-92 in Toronto, successfully holding their opponents' scores under 100 points.
The swarm defense can be said to show his power.
The Kings players didn't work the defensive end, gritting their teeth to chase, block, get started, foul and so on.
They just follow the routine, constantly harass the ball carrier, and then return to their defensive position in time.
After winning this game, the Kings returned to the sweet home of the Golden One Center.
Then, they won back-to-back home games against the Timberwolves and Pelicans, and the Swarm defense showed his unique prowess.
When facing a weak, poor offense, it allows the Kings to effectively disrupt the opponent without overexerting their physical strength.
The opponent gradually fell into a state of increasing fatigue and confusion.
Often in a single quarter, in the middle of the game, the opponent begins to sink into meaningless singles.
However, these teams are relatively weak in attack themselves.
Whether the Kings' defense will be able to cope with a team with a strong offense is still unclear.
If it's just a tactic, it's really worthless for the championship-hungry Kings.
After playing the Pelicans, on November 10, the Kings will face the Lakers.
The old club will be a good touchstone for Li Liang.
