Throughout the first half, Hu Qingniu was thinking of breaking Popovich's updated version of the block.

How to prevent dismantling?

Under the traditional method, there are no four.

The first is to pinch the ball carrier, that is, the two people pinch the opposing ball carrier and empty the opposing screener. This is suitable for use when your own defense ability is excellent and the opponent's ball carrier is weak to get rid of, and can lock the opponent's ball carrier.

LeBron James's team likes to use this, because Lao Zhan can defend inside and outside, and he is fast enough to switch between inside and outside. The three people who have suffered the most from this are Paul George, Thomas Jr., and Kyle Lowry, who have been treated by this trick many times, and some have more than one or two series of games.

But the Wizards team does not have a candidate like Lao Zhan, and Parker's ball holding is quite stable now, and it is estimated that it was strengthened after the loss of the Wizards last time, and Hu Qingniu regretted not being at the beginning.

The second is to switch defenses, that is, the big man changes the opponent's ball carrier, and the perimeter changes the opponent's screener. This move is suitable for use when the opponent's defensive ability is even, the advantage is that it is not easy to miss the gap, which can minimize the opponent's chance of cooperation, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to be misplaced by the opponent.

That's the most basic idea, and that's what the Wizards just did. The results have been seen, and it has no effect at all.

The third is to retreat, that is, the perimeter single defender chases the ball carrier, and the inside line takes a step back. This protects the inner line, but it will leak the periphery, which is suitable for use when your own big man is bulky.

This was the strategy used by the Lakers in the last round, and their big shark was the heaviest big man in the league, so they went home fishing. The Spurs' outside firepower is good enough.

The fourth is delayed return, where the big man holds the ball away first, while the defender rushes over or around the cover wall to get back into position. This move can ensure that it does not fall out of position, and it is the most traditional and effective anti-blocking and dismantling method, but the disadvantage is that it requires a high degree of coordination between the guard and the inside, otherwise it is not easy to operate.

This is actually Popovich's favorite method, Duncan's delay run and Parker's crowd drill are a must, and the two work together quite well.

It stands to reason that the Wizards can fit this condition as well, and Barkley and Penny are enough to complete this strategy, perhaps not as perfect as Duncan and Parker, but it certainly works.

But Hu Qingniu abandoned it, and he had a bolder idea in his head.

That's the big killer - pseudo joint defense!

Thanks to the rise of world basketball, the U.S. team has felt threatened enough. Basketball international games are allowed to play joint defense, and NBA players are not used to joint defense, which in the world competition, the impact on the United States team, so in 2001, the league updated the terms and announced that joint defense is allowed.

There are roughly four types of joint defense, but in addition to the 3-2 joint defense, the other 2-1-2, 2-3, and 1-3-1 joint defenses must have someone under the basket.

This is of course no problem under FIBA rules, but the NBA league has added the "3 seconds of defense" rule at the same time as the introduction of joint defense, which means that defensive players cannot stay in the 3-second zone for more than 3 seconds.

So the NBA's joint defense, in fact, is left with 3-2 joint defense, so people are used to calling the NBA's joint defense "pseudo joint defense" completely.

3-2 joint defense, how to prevent it.

Here Hu Qingniu wants to steal something from Thibodeau, the founder of modern defense, the initiator of space defense theory and the master of the collection.

It's a two-man grip on the ball carrier, while the weak-side wheel turns around to block the cover wall, which requires the whole team to work together.

The 3-2 joint defense is actually an inverted trapezoidal shape.

When it is executed, Penny, Jordan, Hill should be above the inverted trapezoid, and the position is in a line. Ewing and Barkley are below, standing in the second line.

When Parker comes with the ball, Penny and Barkley have to form a double attack, and they must be resolute and not let go. Once it is a loose pincer, it will not form any effect, but will be counterproductive and misunderstood.

Ewing is another focus, first of all, to delay Jackson around the baseline, and then immediately withdraw from the inside line. Even if Jackson gets an open seat after the delay, the time will be a few beats slower, and Jordan can completely follow up and cause interference.

In the second step, Ewing assists Duncan to be fast and settle in time, Ewing's height is not afraid of Duncan's forced mid-range shooting.

It's a subtle anti-pick-and-roll tactic, and everyone has to be a suitable gear part that fits each other to be effective.

Joint defense is a good thing, of course, Hu Qingniu has already trained the old bones of the Wizards, and at this time, it is just right to take it out.

This also proves that success is reserved for those who are prepared, and Hu Qingniu's rigorous and multifaceted preparation for tactical details came in handy at critical moments.

Hu Qingniu arranged all the details, came to the sideline and looked at the Spurs bench with a smile.

Seeing that this kid didn't stop laughing, Old Man Bobo nodded to him.

Hu Qingniu laughed in his heart, looking at how this old man would cry later.

From the beginning of the second half of the two teams, Hu Qingniu glanced at the old man from time to time.

Sure enough, as the Wizards completely broke the Spurs' blocking and dismantling system, the old man Bobo went from sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai to jumping on the sidelines, angrily scolding the players, and the Wizards only took three rounds at this time.

Finally, after the Wizards' successive defensive pick-and-rolls, Old Man Bobo angrily called a timeout.

Parker became the first target of Popovich's scolding by pointing at his nose, and Parker habitually lowered his head, nodding his head constantly and pretending to listen. The few times he tried to force a pass to Duncan in the slit, it turned out to be a mistake.

Duncan, with a goofy face, was not spared, and in his wide-open eyes, Popovich roared at him like a violent father. Duncan also forcibly carried Ewing to play a few just now, but none of them scored, and there was a ball that didn't open the basket.

It was another pass and a few downs, and Popovich remembered the matter, he directly revoked the blocking and dismantling tactic just now, indicating that this blocking and dismantling tactic should be used sparingly, but it can't be used at all, and occasionally play one when the Wizards' lineup changes, test the water, and see if the Wizards' coordination will not be able to keep up after the Wizards' substitution.

One of the tactics to be implemented now is to single, take advantage of Duncan's point, and forcefully single Barkley, a small chunky man. I have to beat him out of the psychological shadow tonight, or Duncan won't give me the bus today, and I'll have to run back to the hotel.

There is also the fact that Ginobili should be on board, Parker, the short man, handed over the organization, and let the bald man of Ginobili play, and the bald man should break through more and try to give the ball to Duncan, the nerd.

A team of three sons, nerds, bald people, short people, and an old man, this is the Spurs, and the best solution that the old man can think of is around these three sons, they are the cornerstone of the Spurs system.
