Chapter 430: A New Rotation Plan
As soon as he talked about the new tactics, Mason asked anxiously: "Coach, how do we play our new tactics?" ”。
Not only Mason, but even players like Justin and Bogdan, who are usually more stable, have expressions full of antiquity on their faces.
Why? Because the previous kings basically did not have systematic tactics, they all sat together for a meeting before each game, and temporarily formulated tactics according to the characteristics of the players and teams.
For example, when the Pelicans were played before, the Kings players and coaches felt that it was difficult to deal with the high-post block, so they temporarily decided to lock Rondo.
It's not impossible to keep playing like this, but the players are always at a loss, and in case of emergencies, their adaptability will be much worse.
"It's very simple, everyone lean over", David took the lead to the simple tactics board on the sidelines, "Our new tactics, the primary purpose is to liberate the defensive pressure on the inside, and the second is to create more offensive space for shooters such as Zhang Feng and Bogdan, and also to create more layup opportunities for Zhang Feng, Justin, Wiley and other air cutters."
"Why do you have Zhang Feng's share in everything?" Mason naturally asked.
"If you can win the skill, three-point, and dunk championship at the same time, I can arrange so many tactics for you," David smiled, and Mason looked embarrassed.
"Let's move on to tactics, to execute tactics perfectly, we must first find the right position, for our current lineup, the coaching staff has designed 3 sets of regular positions, on the basis of these 3 sets of regular positions, 9 special positions can evolve, and I will pass the information to you later, you have to remember it for me."
"Let's talk about a kind of practice first, it's useless to just listen to it," Mason scratched his cheeks and said.
"Okay, you come here 20 times to turn around and run back and forth" As soon as David spoke, Mason was immediately dumbfounded, "Just kidding, everyone come with me."
David led everyone back to the half-court position, "Let's try the 1 inside and 4 outside positions first, Lefu you go to the low post, Zhang Feng, Bogdan to the top of the arc, Justin, Giles on the left and right wings."
Zhang Feng nodded and walked to the top of the arc, he understood that David's strategy was to give full play to Lefou's low-post offensive ability, even if Lefu encountered a strong defender like Green who was not easy to play, he could quickly transfer the ball to the outside, and when the time came, both him and Bogdan could shoot the basketball.
"I believe that everyone understands the intention of such a position, which is to create opportunities for Lefou, but does anyone know why I deliberately let Bogdan and Zhang Feng stand together?" David asked.
"Bogdan can block Zhang Feng at any time?" Mason tried.
"Bogdan has a good finishing ability on layups, and you want him to be ready to rush inside to pick up Lefou?" Justin has a voice.
"Then why not you? You're taller and faster than Bogdan," David asked rhetorically.
"I know that the coaching staff wants to use this position to evolve into a 1-4 high position at any time, as long as Lefu and Bogdan stand on the left and right two high positions at the same time, they can break the opponent's pressing tactics in an instant," Zhang Feng said step by step analysis.
"Exactly! Another way to evolve is that Giles and Justin go to the left and right baselines, and Bogdan slips to the basket, evolving into a 1-4 low position, which is used for the final offense, and the opponent can't wrap you up again."
After David finished speaking, the Kings players present were contemplating intently in understanding, and those who didn't understand were unconscious, but they all nodded silently.
"Since it's so good, let's practice it," Mason suggested, and David said yes.
Immediately, Zhang Feng, Bogdan, Justin, Giles, and Lefu played against Mason, Buddy, Skar, Willy, and Papaioannis.
"Run the most basic 1 inside and 4 outside, and then try the two evolved positions" David laid out the requirements.
I saw Zhang Feng bring the ball to the frontcourt, Mason jumped up and down and failed to steal, and Lefu ran a small counter-run to get rid of Willy to reach the left low post, and Bogdan also slowly approached the top of the arc.
Mason, who failed to make a steal, changed his strategy, completely ignoring whether Zhang Feng broke through or not, and was bent on blocking Zhang Feng's pass.
"You know the running tactics, you are a fool" Zhang Feng thought it was funny, and then a virtual flicker flashed Mason and directly passed the basketball to the left low post.
Lefu catches the ball with his right hand, separates Papa with his left hand, and makes a small throw in an instant. The basketball is hollow into the net, and the 1 inside and 4 outside positions are well executed.
Subsequently, the two teams ran another 1-4 high position and 1-4 low position that evolved from 1 inside and 4 outside, and except for a few small mistakes, the degree of completion was quite high.
But this was originally training within the team, and in order to take care of Lefou's injury, the defensive intensity was really not enough, and it was not clear whether it would work for a while.
Fortunately, several veterans such as Ross, Randolph, Carter, and Thomple also arrived one after another, and David immediately decided to use the King's starting lineup and the second-round lineup to have a confrontational tactical exercise.
Just now it was just a running drill, but now it has been escalated to a formal confrontation, and the staff hurriedly sent special training uniforms.
In the end, Zhang Feng, Rose, Justin, Lefou, and Randolph formed the white team, and Mason, Bogdan, Scal, Willy, and Costa formed the blue team.
Before the start of the game, David pulled several Randolph players to briefly talk about the new tactics, and as veterans who have been in the NBA for many years, they quickly understood.
"Meaningless, see me teach this group of rookies a good lesson, so that they understand what a low-post offense is" Randolph patted his chest, his tone full of confidence.
After the game started, the situation was just as Randolph said, the white team executed a new tactic cleanly, he played the low post, which was more lethal than Love played in the low post, and Willy couldn't stop it at all.
In addition, the white team can flexibly switch between 1 inside and 4 outside positions and 1-4 high/low positions, and the blue team is completely unguardable, and after a few minutes, the white team is 15:0 and shaves the blue team's bald head.
Even in the team training, it was not very comfortable to be beaten like this, and after fighting, Mason even quarreled with Bogdan, and David immediately stopped the drill.
"Come here" David glanced at Zhang Feng, and then the two walked to a corner where there was no one on the sidelines.
"What do you think is the problem?" David asked directly.
"The blue team, no, the second team has no ball points, Mason's style of play is more like a scoring guard, which is no problem, but he is with Bogdan, Bogdan is completely useless, plus the inside Costa is relatively slow, a simple block and dismantling they can't solve it, in this case, offense and defense are not good" Zhang Feng also said bluntly
"So how do you think it should be adjusted? My initial thought was ......"
Without waiting for David to finish speaking, Zhang Feng hurriedly said: "It's best to let Rose play as a substitute and let Bogdan return to the starting lineup, so that when the second team plays, Mason can play a point guard, although it still can't solve the interior defense problem of the second team, but at least he can score."
"I think so too, but I'm not in a hurry now, let's take a look and let's go", after the two finished chatting, they went straight back to the midfield, not wanting Lefu to suddenly call David out.
"Huh? What is there to say? ”
"I'm going to bring in the second team, so I can have the biggest advantage, what do you think?"
