Chapter 40: Breaking through it

On the Hornets bench, head coach Scott stood up and frowned.

Obviously, he also saw what the Mavericks were up to.

"In just a few games, special defensive tactics have been carried out against Chen's weaknesses, and Johnson is really hard enough."

Chen Yu is a player under him, so Scott has long had this kind of defensive tactics against Chen Yu's shooting tendency in his heart, but he didn't expect that Johnson, who had only studied Chen Yu's game in the videotape, could actually think of it, which made Scott faintly admire in his heart.

But Scott knew that Chen Yu had this weakness, so how could he be defenseless?

"Paul!" Scott shouted at Paul in the ring, and when Paul turned around, he held out three fingers of his right hand.

“OK!” Paul made an OK gesture to Scott, then passed Chen's basketball, stretched out three fingers to the players, and began to reorganize the offense.

A pseudo-triangle attack with Paul, Chen Yu, and Chandler as the core!

Chen Yu began to run back and forth with the area inside the left three-point line and the area outside the three-point line on the right, which involved the Mavericks' defensive formation. Chandler also moved up and down the top of the arc and the paint position to block and dismantle Chen Yu.

After two consecutive runs, Chen Yu shook off Josh Howard, who was following the defense, under Chandler's blocking, and came to the position where the red light was shining outside the three-point line on the right side.

The man arrives, the ball arrives!

After receiving the pass, Chen Yu didn't even pause and jumped up to shoot.

"Huh!"

Three points hollow into the net!

“GOOD!”

Scott, the head coach on the Hornets bench, flicked his fist excitedly.

The first tactical attack was perfect, which made him very proud and excited.

Chen Yu, who hit the shot, clapped his hands with Paul to celebrate the success of this tactic.

"This is a pick-and-roll tactic built specifically for Chen?" Johnson, who was on the Mavericks' bench, frowned in confusion, and his brain began to think quickly.

The Mavericks attacked, Kidd missed a three-point shot from the outside, and Paul was lucky enough to pick up a rebound, then dribbled across the half court and stretched out three fingers again.

As in the previous round, Chen Yu started to run back and forth at two points, Chandler blocked, Paul controlled the ball, and the other two players pulled the defense for Chen Yu.

After a few runs, Josh Howard, who followed the defense, was once again blocked by Chandler's thick mind and lost Chen Yu.

The moment he ran out of space, Paul's pass arrived.

As if the same as the replication of the previous round, Chen Yu jumped up the moment he received the ball and shot!

When the basketball was halfway into the air, Jason Terry, who wanted to wrap the spot, was late.

As for Josh Howard, who defended Chen Yu?

Oh, that poor kid is still in Chandler's arms.

"Huh!"

Three points hit again, Chen Yu's super high shooting rate, as long as he is allowed to shoot, it is the opponent's nightmare!

"Phew!"

The American Airlines arena immediately resounded with boos, and the Hornets shot twice in the same way in a row, and the fans were very dissatisfied.

Not only were the fans dissatisfied, but the head coach of the Mavericks Johnson was also very dissatisfied and quickly called a timeout.

Players from both sides return to their respective benches.

If the spring breeze is warm on the Hornets' side, then the Mavericks' side is cloudy.

Obviously, this tactic of the Hornets blinded the Mavericks.

Two rounds passed, and Jason Kidd, who had been known as the coach on the court, couldn't figure out how to stop the tactic.

With the whole Hornets helping Chen Yu run the position, it was difficult to keep up with him. And once you can't keep up, the position of the bag becomes a joke.

The first five games have proved enough that one person can't defend Chen Yu's shots.

"Calm down!" As the Mavericks gathered around Johnson, his first words were to calm everyone down, and then continued: "This is an offensive tactic developed specifically for Chen by the Hornets, and while sharp, it has a well-known weakness. That is, Chen Yu still won't shoot in other positions. ”

As he spoke, Johnson took out the tactical board, pointed to the two positions above and said, "So we don't care about his running position, we don't even need to follow Chen to run, just focus on the two positions inside the left three-point line and outside the right three-point line." When Chen appears on the left side, Howard you follow, and when Chen Yu appears on the right, Terry you defend, there is no need to follow Chen to run all over the court, anyway, he will not shoot in other positions. ”

Johnson's non-arrangement made Jason Kidd suddenly brightened, and then looked at Johnson with admiration.

In fact, he has fallen into the inherent concept of thinking, always thinking about how to follow and defend Chen Yu, in fact, with Chen Yu's shooting tendency, there is no need to follow the defense at all, as long as he stays in the two positions where he can shoot.

Sure enough, being able to become the head coach of an NBA team is not a simple character.

"Toot!"

A whistle blows, and the game starts again.

Both teams took to the field.

Three rounds later, Paul dribbled across half court and extended three fingers again.

"It's coming!"

The Mavericks' players on and off the court are all in their hearts.

Chen Yu started to run back and forth at two o'clock again, but this time the Maverick's defensive tactics changed!

Josh Howard, who was defending Chen Yu, did not cross the middle of the arc, and when Chen Yu ran from the left half to the right half, the person who followed him became Jason Terry.

Although such a defensive change brought a defect to the Mavericks' defensive integrity, it was very effective in defending Chen Yu, allowing him to have defenders to follow him in both the left half and the right half, and Chandler was completely useless in the middle, standing there stunned like a stupid big man.

"The Hornets' tactics were restrained." Johnson smugly looked at Hornets head coach Scott in the distance, but found that Scott looked like he was winning, and did not have the anxiety that his tactics should be restrained.

"Is there a backhand?" Johnson's brow furrowed again.

If Scott had heard Johnson's words at this time, he would have said proudly: "Backhand? Of course, there is a backhand. The only drawback of tactics has long been masked. ”

Just as Johnson was meditating, the situation on the field suddenly changed!

When Chen Yu passed outside the three-point line on the right side, Jason Terry and Jerry Starhouse came one after another, and they were about to be clamped to death, but Chen Yu suddenly turned around and broke through Starhouse's defense.

"Breakthrough?!" On the Mavericks bench on the sidelines, Johnson quickly stood up and looked at Chen Yu's figure inside in disbelief.

His set of defensive tactics is to prevent shooting but not to break through.

Once Chen Yu attacks by breaking through, the so-called trap position tactics will become a joke.
