Chapter 143: Attack of Utah (2)
The man who said this was none other than Luke.
"You, forget it." Larry refused, "Starks is not a good defensive player, you just have to take care of him, and the rest of the people are not your concern." ”
"But if you can't stop Karl Malone, you still won't win." Luke said.
"I still need your help from the outside." Larry continued. "You can already see in the first half that Aaron and Snow can't guard against Stockton, and you're the best fit for that role here. Didn't you always want to play point guard? You can play today, and it's your job to defend Stockton. ”
"But isn't the threat from the inside still unresolved? Even if the best result Stockton is frozen by me, but Malone's personal ability is still there, and the inside line will still be kneaded. Luke retorted fiercely.
"There's still a big book on the inside line, I don't need you, you have to take care of the outside line, don't always want to go to the inside line. It's not for you there. ”。 Larry still sternly refused.
"But......" Luke was about to say something, but was hugged by Aaron, "Alright, alright, Luke, stop arguing with Larry." Let's talk less. Aaron also came over, "That's it, coach, calm down, everyone is talking less, it's all for the good of the team, stop arguing." ”
"Bang-" Allen rewarded Luke with a slap, "what are you fighting with Larry!" Can't you tell Larry is doing it for your own good? Aaron paused here, "Karl Malone is too strong, and many people will lose confidence if they let a rookie rush to fight him." Larry, it's protecting you know. Aaron said.
"I know, I know the coach is good for me. But you can't give up at this time, defending Karl Malone is equivalent to cutting off a hand of the Utah Jazz, most of Stockton's passes are handed over to Malone, and defending Malone is equivalent to cutting off one of Stockton's hands. This will also cause the Jazz to lose most of their abilities. Luke said.
"You're right. But are you sure you can stop Karl Malone, or can you stop the connection between Karl Malone? Larry said after a moment of silence.
"I don't dare to say anything about Karl Malone. But it is okay to limit Ma Long's play. And it's not impossible to break the link between Malone and Stockton. Luke said.
"Huh? Have you cracked the secret of the 'Utah Twins' that so many coaches have not deciphered for so many years? Aaron was a little unconvinced.
"Of course, you can't decipher it completely." Luke smiled helplessly and said, "If I completely deciphered it I wouldn't be playing here, I should go to work in the league, or be a team owner doing private work, and I can make money just selling deciphered tactics."
"Okay, back to business, according to what is said in "Kuroko's Basketball", ......"
"Wait!" Larry stopped, "What's 'Kuroko's Basketball'?" ”
"Damn, Tadashi Fujimaki is still just an 18-year-old boy who hasn't started drawing manga yet." Luke muttered to himself.
"Okay, let's not get into the details of what this "Basketball of the Sunspots" is, Luke, you continue to talk about how to limit the "Utah Twins", that's the point." Larry said.
"Alright, I'll explain." Luke said. "Is there a basketball here?"
"How could it not be!" "It's our home dressing room, we can have whatever we want! ”
"John!" Aaron shouted outside. "Get me a basketball."
It didn't take long for Luke's basketball to come. "Not bad." Lu patted twice and said.
"Okay, the basketball you want is here, tell me what you can do. I'm running out of time. Aaron said anxiously.
"Well, as we all know, the most powerful thing about the 'Utah Twins' is the blocking tactic, but this one is after the formation of positional warfare. The Utah Jazz also have a defensive counterattack. Stockton propped up the tactic with his unmatched tackling ability and Karl Malone's blocking skills, which is what they are most difficult to defend. Everyone knew Stockton would pass the ball to Karl Malone, but couldn't keep them at bay. Why? I'm going to show you how to do it. See. Luke put the ball in his hands.
"Look, I've got a basketball in my hand, right?" "yes." "That's good. I do. ”
Luke tossed the ball. Then the ball flew out. "What do you see?" Luke asked.
"There's something strange about a ball flying out." Big Ben said.
"Did you notice me just now?" Luke said with a smile.
"Oh! So that's it! Aaron said.
"That's it, whether it's a Malone block or a rebound, or after a steal from Stockton, the ball will go to Stockton first, and then Stockton will launch a fast break, right, and then it will be handed to Karl Malone to finish." Luke paused when he said this, "This is that Stockton has attracted all the firepower, everyone will focus on Stockton and give up the defense of Malone, and when Malone's outburst out, everyone will be in a hurry to defend, how can they defend against the rampaging Karl Malone, which has started quickly?" Luke said.
"And what's your method?" Aaron asked.
"It's very simple, let the two of them guard them separately and keep an eye on their every move. Unless they're using pick-and-roll tactics, they must be kept an eye on them at other times, especially Karl Malone, as long as they entangle him, the Jazz won't win. "As for the pick-and-roll strategy, I think the coach must have a lot of ways to solve it. ”
"That's ......," Aaron said. But it should take two people, one to hold Karl Malone and the other to keep an eye on Stockton. ”
"Of course, and these two people must not care about data, this is a certainty, if you care too much about data, you must not be able to prevent it." Luke said. "But I can come inside."
"What about the outside line? It's impossible for me to go. Aaron said.
"Come on, I don't care about the data." Snow said.
"No, Eric can't." Before Luke could speak, Larry spoke first, "Erik, your defense is still not good enough for Stockton, you have to change someone." Luke was the best fit, and neither was McGee......" Larry muttered to himself.
"Let Raga try it." Luke said with a smile.
"Oh? Yes, and him! Larry remembered, too.
"Me?" Raga was a little surprised, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”
"Of course, you'll be the protagonist next!"
