Joint defense, as the name suggests, means joint defense.

Joint defense is one of the most basic defensive tactics on the basketball court, and there are many classifications, such as "2-1-2 joint defense", "3-2 joint defense", "2-3 joint defense", "1-2-2 joint defense" and so on.

There are many variations and routines in joint defense.

If joint defense is only an optional defensive tactic in the NBA, then under the rules of FIBA, joint defense is a basic defensive tactic that every team must master.

Of course, Fan Bin has also instructed these players on how to defend the joint defense, but in the face of the excellent individual ability of the American players, the joint defense of the national youth team is actually a bit chicken.

But the situation at this time is very different, this is a more rigorous "3-2 joint defense", more like a "joint defense" than the "2-1-2 joint defense" arranged by Coach Fan before, and what really surprised Shashewski is that this joint defense is much stronger than the previous one in terms of rotation speed and defensive strength.

Of course, everything is due to Roy, who is in the bottom corner, who is constantly directing the rotation and packing of players, which makes the defensive resilience of the national youth team rise more than one notch.

Now, every player on the pitch seems to know what to do.

They fully believe in Roy, and they can defend without any scruples, because Roy has Roy behind them to complement them and show them the way.

The tough defense of the national youth team made the U.S. team give up the idea of individual hard play, and before the 30-second offensive time was exhausted, Valentine made a hasty three-point shot and hit the iron.

Roy gave Shashewski a return look with Shashewski's version of the defensive tactic.

A good "give back to the other in his way".

This kid is not simple, Shashevsky couldn't help but sigh.

This kid is not simple, this is also the on-the-spot perception of many scouts, Roy showed strong leadership and tactical understanding in this game that was not too obvious before, he is really too versatile.

Immediately, the scouts were hotly discussed.

"If it weren't for Roy who hadn't played in the NCAA, I would have suggested that our general manager should pick him."

"If it weren't for Ben Simmons being better, I would have suggested that our general manager choose Roy."

"If it weren't for my head coach being Popovich, I would definitely have Roy's name on the number one of all the players."

If? There is no if, if the ball god didn't choose Roy, wouldn't it be all the stories that followed?

So, some things in this world are accidental, and some things are inevitable.

For example, Roy's talent for understanding basketball tactics is a necessity.

Under the leadership of Roy, the NCAA All-Stars of the American team suddenly couldn't help the substitute players of the national youth team.

Coach Fan was stunned for a long time, he didn't think of substitutions until there were 2 minutes left in the half, he made a big move, and all five substitutes went to rest, and the score at this time was 38:50, and this group of substitutes recovered a 10-point gap for the team......

Amid the shouts and cheers of the crowd, the half-time game was over, with the score at 42:56, an expected backward and unexpected process.

Roy was undoubtedly the biggest highlight of the first half, and some anxious reporters even finished the press release celebrating Roy at halftime.

Back in the locker room, Coach Fan didn't know how to speak for a while, the main team lost points, and the substitute chased points This kind of thing is not easy to evaluate, and everyone's mentality will be unbalanced.

He skipped the comments of the first half and went straight to the tactical arrangement of the second half, the second half of the tactical arrangement was the same, the biggest change was that Roy will start the game.

On the other side, the "old Coach K" has also guessed this, seeing Roy's amazing performance in the first half, a normal manager would not put him back on the bench.

At the beginning of the second half, the main team faced off, and Shashewski no longer played a trap defense against Roy, he believed in his starters, and did not want to undermine their self-confidence.

The U.S. team reverted to man-to-man defensive tactics, with Jaylen Brown being assigned to mark Roy. The physically fit Brown is the most trusted outside guard of "Coach K." He has a strong build, excellent arm span, a keen sense of defense and a defensive attitude, can defend from the No. 1 position all the way to the No. 4 position, and has the potential to become the top defender in the NBA league in the future, and he is the most suitable one-on-one defense for Roy.

Roy, who was back on the court, immediately felt the pressure from Jaylen Brown.

The big black man's comprehensive ability is on par with Roy, but if it is compared to physical fitness alone, Roy may still be slightly inferior, and the two collided several times without the ball in a physical state, so that Roy immediately felt Jaylen Brown's toughness.

It's really a hard bone, Roy looked at the black guy in front of him with clear muscle lines, a big beard, and a constant plan to do physical contact, and felt a little helpless in his heart.

But the only point where the national youth team can take the initiative to attack from the outside is Roy, Zhao Jiwei passed the ball, and Roy and Jaylen Brown formed their first single.

"Come on, Roy, I'm not a defender of Malik's [Newman] level, I'm going to make you suffer." Perhaps because he was afraid of Roy's pass, Jaylen Brown took the lead with trash talk.

Of course, Roy can't pass the ball, and this black King Kong has been hitting himself with his body just now, which has made Roy very unhappy, and now is his chance to teach Brown a lesson.

Skilled triple threat, Brown's wide body and two long arms instantly pressed over, there was a gap on the left, Roy took a step, he was about to break through, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Roy didn't break through, he flashed out, turned around and returned to the three-point line, while Brown was still hesitating, a quick three-pointer. Because of the hasty shot, the power of the ball was a bit heavy, but fortunately, the direction was very accurate, hit the rebound, and it bounced into the basket, dribbling, 45:56.

"Well done." The audience did not hesitate to applaud themselves.

In the eyes of the average viewer, this may be a lucky three-point shot, but in Shashewski's view, it is completely different.

"Did Roy see through my intentions?" Shashevsky's expression was a little surprised.

Roy did it on purpose, and in just one second, Roy saw through the U.S. team's defensive strategy.

This is a trap, the so-called man-to-man defense is just a cover, the United States team is still playing regional joint defense, but the original "1-2-2 joint defense" has been changed to a "BOX-ONE" formation joint defense, if Roy just broke in, then what awaits him is the encirclement of three people, and Roy may not even have the space and time to handle the ball at that time.

Jaylen Brown wanted to drive himself into this trap, so he deliberately sold that gap, he is not only "black and hard" with developed limbs, but also has a high ball quotient.

The tactics of "Old Coach K" are very clear, if Roy chooses to break through the offensive interior, he will use skilled joint defense to reduce his shooting percentage and protect rebounds; And if Roy chooses to attack the perimeter with a long shot, then let Jaylen Brown, who has a strong defensive ability, act as a sapper to stop and interfere with Roy's long shot.

In short, Roy's offense will be very uncomfortable, and he can't have that much luck with every ball.

This time, "Old Coach K" seems to have the chance to win.
