Chapter 37 Revisits the Classics!

The game came back, and Roy of the Trail Blazers launched an attack first, quickly broke through to the basket, and tried to score a layup, but was covered by a big hat from Lefu in the restricted area, the basketball flew out, and Brewer grabbed the ball on the outside and quickly passed it to Li Shihao.

Li Shihao controlled the ball to stabilize the rhythm, did not launch a quick attack, waited for his own players to settle down, and made a well-timed ground pass, which accurately penetrated the defense of the Trail Blazers and was firmly caught by Al Jefferson.

Al is a thick interior player, he didn't rush to score after receiving the ball, and thinking back to the words that head coach McHale had just carefully advised, this honest big man also began to brush up on his means.

"Collapse!"

Eyre backed the Trail Blazers' center Oden, stuck his position, and resisted Oden behind him with brute force.

Push behind you!

"Bang!"

There was a clash of strong muscles, the two were evenly matched, and there was no change in Al's swarthy face, he and Auden had known each other for a long time, they had played each other when Auden was 14 years old, and he knew Auden's abilities very well.

Since the two were evenly matched in terms of strength, Al changed his approach, he turned his back and steady, shook past Oden, and tried to shoot a jumper.

Auden turned around and stretched out his long arm to block, but he didn't want Al to suddenly be short, and he made a low-handed pass to pass the basketball out.

At this moment, a blue figure flashed, and Brewer rushed into the paint area like lightning and scored a dunk!

“Wolves！”

There was a deafening cheer throughout the Target Center, and the local Minnesota fans began to cheer, and the team quickly scored two points with a new tactical offense as soon as they entered the game, giving them a faint glimpse of the team's chance to overtake!

Roy frowned, his light expression was gone, and a flash of thunder flashed in his heart.

Where do you seem to have seen this tactic? Why is it so familiar?

Roy pondered for a long time, but couldn't find the answer he wanted.

Off the court, Trail Blazers head coach McMillan has a sense of familiarity with the wonderful cooperation played by the Timberwolves on the court, and he sees the essence of this tactic!

"It's a triangular tactic!"

As one of the few black coaches in the NBA league, McMillan's coaching career is phenomenal, and the young Trail Blazers can play such an excellent performance this season, which is inseparable from his coaching level!

He naturally saw the tactics of the Timberwolves at a glance, and he experienced the era of the Lakers dynasty, and naturally understood how terrifying the triangle offense under the OK combination was at that time, what he didn't expect was that the young Timberwolves in front of him actually played a triangle offense!

What the hell!

Is this really the tactic that the old-fashioned, inflexible McHale on the other side came up with?

is also a player turned head coach, McMillan is much better than McHale, but now McHale, who has never been taken into his eyes, actually showed the tactics of triangle attack in this game!

Either McHale is crazy, or it's a long-planned change!

In the NBA league, there are only three teams that really integrate the triangle offensive strategy, the Chicago Bulls and the Los Angeles Lakers in the two periods, and the Bulls at the time of Jordan were unmatched in the league with this tactic, building a great cause of six championships, which was the first time that the world was shocked by the triangle strategy.

As for the Lakers, the three consecutive championships during the OK combination period brought the most glorious dynasty years to Los Angeles, and everyone was once again shocked by the triangle tactics, and there is the Lakers who are now in full swing!

Everyone on earth knows that the triangle tactic is Phil Jackson's signature tactic, and the champion coach has no less rings on his hand because of this tactic.

Whether it is the Bulls Dynasty or the Lakers Dynasty, or now the Lakers, they all focus on the triangle offense, which only the aliens don't know!

There are quite a few famous coaches in the alliance who have tried to replicate this tactic, but they have all failed!

They were defeated by the triangular tactics!

Phil Jackson's triangle offense is easy to say, but in the final analysis, the core key of the triangle offense is three points.

First, two and three people on both sides are in position, the three ends are the strong side, the main orthodox triangle attack, and the two ends are the weak side, and you can do a two-person game after a quick transfer.

Second, space, the most critical thing in the triangle attack is that the players need to be able to assess the situation and open up the right space between each other on the court, not too far and not too close. The spatial distance is determined by the fact that the passing is exactly a little faster than the running. As for how much this distance is better, different coaches have different opinions.

Third, low-post singles.

Triangle offense, to put it bluntly, is to maximize the strength of the team's stars, especially players who are good at low-post offense, and use strong low-post back-to-back ability to destroy all opponents one-on-one and take the lead.

The complexity of the triangle tactic lies in its variety, he can and the triangle offense is varied, one side of the triangle can't be played, after transferring the weak side, as long as the player near the top of the arc moves slightly, the weak side of the low post strong point and the outside shooting point are swapped once, and the new triangle will be achieved.

The essential reason why this tactic is so difficult to achieve is that it requires the stars to contribute, but it also requires the stars to make sacrifices!

This tactic is the most damaging for point guards!

What really makes McMillan feel hopelessly McHale is that he used this tactic against the young Timberwolves, which would be his biggest failure!

Winter Winter, the founder of the Triangle Attack, once said that the Triangle Attack requires sacrifice, but for those young stars, they are most concerned about their own stats, so the Triangle Attack is not suitable for young teams.

In the case of the Bulls, Jordan also reluctantly agreed to accept the triangle offense after being humiliated by the Pistons many times in the playoffs, and although he didn't like these things, he could only make changes in a sense in order to stop being humiliated!

Winter was right to say that the triangle tactic is not for a young team that has not suffered setbacks.

Whether it is Jordan in the early years or the OK combination who has been humiliated by the Jazz and Spurs in a row, or Kobe Bryant who scored 81 points alone, they have all brought their personal abilities to the extreme, but they have only gained full frustration, and the championship ring does not belong to them!

Therefore, it is only after continuous humiliation that these superstars are willing to give up the ball, make sacrifices, and really play a good triangle attack wholeheartedly!

In McMillan's eyes, he didn't believe that a team like the Timberwolves, who had always been too young, could achieve this tactic!

But the situation began to change, and it gradually began to change in favor of the Timberwolves!

Three minutes into the second quarter, the Timberwolves played the Trail Blazers at 23:30

In the fifth minute, the Timberwolves seized on a mistake by the Trail Blazers and played a wave of 5:0

In the 8th minute, Li Shihao made a backward jumper on the outside, and in the face of Roy's defense, he felt hot and hit a three-pointer!

The score is overtaken!

McMillan couldn't sit still, he didn't understand why the Timberwolves were able to execute this tactic!

Even if it was a little jerky, but they still used it after all, and the Timberwolves' lineup on the court at the moment is so similar to that team!

McHale was a little uncertain, he was a little incredulous!

Tonight, the triangle offense of the Chicago Bulls is back in the game!
