Chapter 193, The Passion of the Slam Dunk King.
The current Celtics are almost perfect except for a lot of outside passes that lead to more turnovers and a strong side squeeze defense that leads to a slightly worse backcourt rebound.
Perimeter squeeze defense, make mistakes, control the opponent's shooting rate, counterattack push, opportunity battle, half-court offense and defense.
Heads-up (Pierce), off-ball offense (Ray), high post and mid-post singles (KG), blue collar (Perkins and Wallace), bench 3-and-D group.
Such a team can already be tied with the Spurs in 1999 and the Pistons in 2004 as the top three defensive teams after Jordan's retirement.
Pritchard will have more power over tactics, after all, several brains in his team are very useful, and even assistant coaches are only used as a supplement to tactics.
At this time, the three brains are coming together to formulate a rough plan for the second section.
Dealing with such a Celtic, Miller, Roy, and Xue Ding all felt a headache.
"Xue, what do you think their weaknesses are?" Roy asked.
Xue Ding thought for a while and replied: "They don't have enough backcourt rebounding protection, they rely more on mid-to-long-range shots, and there will be more fouls." ”
"And they don't penetrate enough into the box and rely on rebounding up front."
“OK! Then our next focus is to protect the rebounds and limit their perimeter. ”
"Okay!"
The general policy of defense was decided.
Then the offensive tactics discussed by Xue Ding and Miller and others were to decide to settle down and play a position with the Celtics, and they were wary of the breakthrough of the Trailblazers, and they had to grind round by round.
…………
Everyone studied a lot about this Celtic team before the game.
This Celtics team is enough to attract the attention of any team in the league, of course, they have experienced too many hard battles in the past two years, and the opponent can beat them to provide a lot of examples!
In the '08 playoffs, the Celtics played seven games against the Hawks, seven games against the Cavaliers, and six games against the Pistons, all of which were hard-fought battles.
That year, Celtic's championship journey was actually blue-collar in the penalty area, relying on high-quality mid-to-long-range offense and defense - pressure on the ball and strong side squeezing on the defensive end, high post on the offensive end, off-ball movement and mid-to-long-range heads-up.
Against a steel team like the Pistons, they will look like a jumper team that is better than the perimeter defense.
Luckily, their wills are tough enough and their chemistry is good enough.
This may be the only thing Jordan has seen since he retired.
There is no shame in these shortcomings that they have exposed.
After all, their three generals are all old and don't rely on their muscles and bones.
Their chemistry is still second to none throughout the ages, you know, Chamberlain, Baylor, West three superstars will be together, Big Dream, Barkley, Glider three superstars will be together, including Miamina three in their first season together, did not win the championship, but the Celtics did.
Xue Ding respects their strength, but disdains their character!
Because playing with them is too hot, they make small moves at every turn, and trash talk at every turn!
The second quarter resumed.
Miller advances with the ball.
After reaching beyond the three-point line, he hoisted the ball to Roy.
If you play a positional attack with the Celtics, Roy and Ade are very important.
But Ade is facing KG, which is not easy to fight, so he can only give Roy first.
Roy's form has been up and down since his injury, but the ball has been a lot more consistent in the last few games before the All-Star break.
According to the tactics of several people, Pritchard asked Miller to make the ball to Roy as soon as he came up, hoping that Roy would find his touch first, and then take this opportunity to open the gap.
Facing Ray Allen, Roy chose to push directly with his back.
Ray Allen has always been the kind of player who is very smart, he makes a deep impression on the offensive end, plays very smart, reasonable, has strange muscles and bones, shoots and breaks through, goes around the cover, pulls the space to catch the ball accurately, and attacks with the ball, whether it is shooting, breaking, or even organization.
And he is also the same on the defensive end, very smart, good judgment, quick hands, hard legs and feet, height does not have an advantage, and he is not a fierce and aggressive defensive player, but a player who relies on card positions and blocking routes to defend.
Overall, Ray Allen's defensive ability is not as good as Kobe, Wade, Iguodala and other top defenders, and there are not many times when he kills anyone alive in the game, but he can still be said to have good defensive ability with his accurate judgment in defense, calm and not lazy performance.
And defensive characteristicsIn the Celtics' formed defensive system, he is a very good defender.
Although Ray Allen defends well, Roy is a man nicknamed "Mamba" after all, and he has too many offensive options.
After Roy's continuous feints, he quickly found space to shoot.
Roll over the middle distance!
"Huh!"
28 to 22.
"Well done, Blanton."
Xue Ding walked over and high-fived Roy, after Xue Ding's All-Star Game, he knew that he was very lucky to have All-Star teammates by his side.
"Thank you!" Roy still looked modest and polite.
Xue Ding has always felt that he is also very lucky, there is such a boss who tolerates his personality and allows him to grow up smoothly!!
Roy's easy win left Ray Allen helpless.
"This is Brandon Roy, and from this offense, we can see that he's back to health, which is good news for the Trail Blazers." Barkley said with a smile.
It's always nice to see an All-Star get back to health.
"Xue's presence ensures the Trail Blazers' playoff floor, and Roy's presence gives the Trail Blazers an upper limit to compete for a championship." Smith said.
"Well, before you know it, the Trail Blazers' outside strength is already at the top of the league."
"yes, Xue Garroy's twin stars are enough to give the rest of the league a headache for their outside defense."
"In addition to the outside line, you look at their interior line, Chandler is good at defending, Aldridge is good at attacking, this is also the league's first-class interior combination!"
"Frenchman Batum is also coming back soon."
"Terrible, terrible!"
The two hosts have seen how strong a healthy Trail Blazers lineup can be.
…………
Change the Celtics offense!
Rondo dribbled across the half-court and Miller marked.
When Miller and Xue Ding are present at the same time, Xue Ding will go to the No. 3 position.
Roy moved to the No. 2 position.
After all, Xue Ding is also a man who has played as a center forward, and the No. 3 position is not a problem.
After cutting 50+20 last time, Ade and Chandler looked at Xue Ding with admiration in their eyes!
The man who really played from the number one to the number five position was his teammate.
When Ade and Chandler were training, they often asked them to play with Xue Ding to play inside offensive and defensive singles.
But how dare Xue Ding go, he refuses every time!
Today, Xue Ding defended Paul Pearce, the three-point king of this year's All-Star Game.
Rondo gives the ball to Pierce in the low post.
Peak Pierce's low-post offensive ability is no worse than Kobe's.
However, what Xue Ding is not afraid of is low-post singles.
Xue Ding puffed up his chest and pressed it over.
"Aggressive!!"
Xue Ding constantly stimulates his skills!
Pierce is older, and Xue Ding gave him a section of aggressiveness in the first quarter, and now he will have a tendency to be tired.
This time, Xue Ding took a big stride forward, continuous impact, and suddenly a gambling steal, leaping over.
"Smack!"
The ball is broken.
Pierce's reaction was still slow.
Xue Ding and Roy launched a double-line fast attack!
Between the three passes and the two guides, Xue Ding broke through Lei Allen's defense!
At this point, the Celtic defenders have completely lost their position!
Xue Ding dribbled into the Celtic penalty area.
Take off straight on the ground!
The fans at the scene screamed in unison, their new dunk king's dunk is worth looking forward to, and everyone knows his next move.
Three seconds ago.
Xue Ding grabbed the ball with one hand, his head was almost flat, he bent over like a bow, and vigorously split the buckle!
This simple tomahawk is enough to make the Rose Garden Course cheers!!
"Box."
28 to 24.
"Ahh
Xue Ding kept roaring towards the camera and took his own overlord step.
Xue Ding kept beating his chest, and the morale of all the pioneers soared.
