NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 146

After this timeout, Coach Sloan suddenly resorted to a double-team pick-and-roll.

This move caught everyone by surprise.

Lu Yusheng didn't think of it himself, he didn't react for a while.

After facing a double team, Lu Yusheng could no longer circle behind the pick-and-roll player like before. He was tightly surrounded by two people on the left and right sides.

Di Brown got the space and dribbled directly in!
The Lakers' inside players could only step forward to interfere. DiBron made a fake shot, which swayed the defensive player away, and made a ground pass to Boozer who had already made an air cut after the pick-and-roll!

There was no one in front of Boozer, and he directly set up a crooked machine gun to shoot.

Swish!
Hollow scored!

"Oh! The tactical adjustments made by Coach Sloan had an immediate effect. The Jazz scored directly on their first offense after the timeout!" McLean said.

"This is actually a kind of pick-and-roll tactic," Robertson explained, "but it's a little more complicated. This kind of pick-and-roll tactic is completely for the point guard. Let him get rid of the defense of the opponent's point guard and gain space. Then go to dominate the ball. In this case, it is a test of the organizational ability of the point guard. Just now Di Brown was very smart. After his teammates created opportunities for him, he did not rush to shoot, but dribbled inside. , to find teammates."

"Then how do you think the Lakers should deal with the Jazz's double-team pick-and-roll tactic under the current circumstances?"

"I really didn't expect that Coach Sloan could use this tactic in the end. It is really powerful. To be honest, this tactic is really not easy to break, because few teams usually play this tactic. This requires a high level of mobility for pick-and-roll players, and maybe only teams like the Jazz can play, so in fact...I don’t have any good solutions right now.” Robertson said.

"I thought you were experienced enough to know where the weakness of this tactic is."

"I haven't really studied this, because in the era when I played, there was no such tactic. In my era, such a screen was not allowed by the rules." Robertson said.

"It turned out to be like this. Then I don't know if the Lakers can solve this trick."

"I think it depends on Kobe and Zen Master. After all, they have more experience." Robertson said, "I don't think it's realistic to count on others."

On the court, the Lakers attack.

This time it was Lu Yusheng and Kobe's pick and roll.

After the pick and roll, this time, they did not choose to double-team, but to switch defenses!

Lu Yusheng laughed, this is simply giving away points.

After switching defenses, Kirilenko might be able to limit Lu Yusheng's defense, but if DiBron defends Kobe, it's basically free.

DiBron is basically a head shorter than Kobe.

In terms of strength, he is not Kobe's opponent at all.

When Kobe saw the fat being sent to his mouth, he was naturally not polite. After making a fake move, he directly shot a three-pointer.

Di Brown takes off to block the shot!
Although, he has tried his best to jump, but basically did not form any interference with Bryant's shooting.

Easy to score three points!

But looking back, when it was the Jazz's turn to attack, they still used the tactic of two players coming out from the inside, and the two were picking and rolling for DiBron!

The Lakers also obviously have no good way to take this hand.

DiBrown repeats his old trick, rushes inside, fakes a real pass, and then passes to his teammate in the air cut!

This time, Kirilenko even made a dunk! !

"It seems that I just came to a conclusion a little too early." Robertson laughed, "Coach Jerry Sloan's move really caught the Lakers off guard. Although the Jazz still couldn't parry the Lakers and Kobe's firepower, their Offensively, the Lakers have nothing to do. It seems that the two teams will continue to be anxious."

On the court, Lu Yusheng truly admired Mr. Sloan's move. Although he has always used pick-and-roll tactics as his main strategy, he never thought that pick-and-roll can be played like this.

Moreover, in fact, from the pick-and-rolls by Di Brown just now, Lu Yusheng can clearly feel that their pick-and-roll tactics are obviously more layered. In a logical way, in this way, after the pick and roll, the point guard has more room to choose.

Their pick-and-roll tactics are obviously richer and more solid than the details of the Suns.

This is Mr. Sloan, the real master of pick-and-roll tactics.

However, how should Lu Yusheng break the double-team pick-and-roll?
As he dribbles the ball across half court, he ponders it in his head.

But it is still unable to figure out a strategy to deal with it.

The Lakers' offense this time is still a pick-and-roll tactic, but this time it is Luke Walton who puts up the pick-and-roll for Lu Yusheng.

After the pick-and-roll, Lu Yusheng passed the ball to Odom who was already open.

Odom voted directly.

But this ball is solid.

The Jazz grabbed the defensive rebound.

Whistle!

It was the Lakers who requested the timeout.

"I guess Phil Jackson called this timeout to solve the Jazz's two-man pick-and-roll tactic." McLean said.

"Yes, if this problem is not resolved, the game between the two sides will definitely be delayed until the last minute or two."

Robertson said, "This is a result that the Lakers are unwilling to accept, because at that time, the outcome will be hard to say. They have already grasped the initiative on the court, but Coach Sloan's backhand made their There is no advantage at all, so Zen master must solve this double-team defense during this timeout."

In fact, the Zen master called this pause to solve this problem.

"Odom, Walton, you two remember, in the next round, when they double-team the pick-and-roll against Lu, you quickly step forward to double-team Di Brown, understand?" Zen Master arranged.

Odom and Wharton looked at each other, obviously they didn't understand Zen Master's intention, but they still said, "Understood."

The Zen master turned to Lu Yusheng and said, "Lu, the next link is very critical, and only you can complete it."

"You say."

"As we have seen just now, the rookie of the Jazz, his ability to play the ball in the face of double-teams is comparable to yours. Therefore, when Walton and Odom form double-teams on him in an instant, you need Make a judgment based on the situation at the first time on the field, either double-team with them, or find a way to steal the ball when Di Brown passes the ball." Zen Master said.

Lu Yusheng nodded.

With Lu Yusheng's basketball wisdom, when Zen Master asked Odom and Walton to double-team, he understood Zen Master's intention.

Wonderful!

The way Lu Yusheng has been thinking about is how to get rid of the double team. This idea is wrong.

Because in the case of double-teaming, the referee's vision can be completely blocked. When double-teaming, use some hidden small moves so that you can't get rid of it at all.

Therefore, from this point of view, there is no answer at all.

But Zen Master is obviously smarter. He thinks directly from the source. Since both of your inside players are going to double-team my point guard, then my inside players will simply go directly to double-team your point guard. Anyway, two If the elders go to double-team a point guard, it will be difficult for the general point guard to pass the ball.

And everyone knows that Di Brown's passing ability in the face of double-teams is very strong.

Therefore, the Zen master still has a back hand,

And Lu Yusheng is the backhand!
Whistle!

The game continues!

The Jazz have the ball.

After DiBron dribbled the ball for halftime, the tactic was still the same as before. Boozer and Kirilenko came up and double-teamed Lu Yusheng for DiBron's pick-and-roll.

But this time, what they didn't expect was that the moment Boozer and Kirilenko blocked Lu Yusheng, Odom and Wharton behind them suddenly stepped up, quickly forming a double-team to DiBron!

Di Brown obviously didn't think of this move. Faced with the instant double-teaming of two tall men, he panicked and hurriedly dribbled the ball to the rear right!
Lu Yusheng noticed that from this angle, Di Brown had already retreated to the sideline!

In this case, he chose to double-team without hesitation!
"Oh! This is the countermeasure given by Zen Master. The three Lakers players formed a double-team for DiBron in an instant!" McLean exclaimed! "Three guys who are taller than him double-team him who is short in stature. He can't even see where his teammates are. It seems that it is difficult to pass the ball!"

Sure enough, with Lu Yusheng stepping forward to help double-team, Di Brown really lost his vision of passing the ball. He hurriedly protected the ball, but Lu Yusheng made a decisive move, taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he slapped the ball down!
The Lakers fast break!

From the corner of his eye, Lu Yusheng saw Kobe who had already galloped away, and with a Nolookpass, he found Kobe!

A dunk! !

Cheers erupted like a tsunami from the Staples Center!

The Jazz have the ball!
After DiBron dribbled the ball for half court, he still let Boozer and Kirilenko come up to pick and roll him.

DiBrown was obviously a little unconvinced. He felt that the Lakers just temporarily adjusted their tactics just now, which caught him by surprise and panicked.

He made up his mind, if they still make this move this time, they must hold their ground and play the ball as soon as possible!

Because of this double-teaming, his teammates must be open.

As long as the ball is passed, teammates will have a chance to score directly!
When DiBrown picked and rolled this time, he deliberately kept a certain distance back.

When Boozer and Kirilenko were double-teaming Lu Yusheng in the pick-and-roll, Odom and Walton still quickly stepped up to double-team DiBron!
DiBron took a step backward suddenly, saw the opportunity, hit the ground, and passed towards Boozer!

"Beautiful!" Macklin couldn't help shouting, "Although DiBrown made a mistake after being double-teamed last time, but this time he was clearly prepared, and this pass was beautiful!"

Boozer has no defense in front of him, and he is ready to catch the ball and shoot directly!

However, unexpectedly, when the ball flew halfway towards him, a hand suddenly appeared quickly and quickly broke the ball! !

It's Lu Yusheng! !
After Lu Yusheng stole the ball, he made a long pass from the quarterback, and it was Kobe's quick pass!

Dunk directly to score!

"I didn't expect that," Macklin said with some regret, "Di Brown has passed the ball very well. I didn't expect Lu Yusheng to predict the passing route of this ball."

"This game is really over," Robertson said, "Coach Jerry Sloan's double-team pick-and-roll, Zen Master has already handed over the answer sheet, and the final answer to this answer sheet is Lu."

That's right, that's why it is said that Lu Yusheng is the master's successor.

That's why, when Odom and Wharton double-teamed Di Brown, the Zen master asked Lu Yusheng to make a decision with the camera.

If the double-teaming is good, Di Brown can't pass out immediately, so he can immediately step forward to form a three-person double-team. It's also hard to hit the ball.

If the double-teaming between Odom and Wharton is not complete and the ball can be played immediately, then Lu Yusheng's role will be reflected.

Because Lu Yusheng, like Di Brown, is a point guard with strong passing ability, so Lu Yusheng can completely substitute Di Brown to predict how Di Brown will pass the ball and which position he will pass to his teammates in that situation. ball.

Only Lu Yusheng could do this.

In the situation just now, Lu Yusheng immediately believed that DiBrown would definitely pass the ball to Boozer.

There are not many reasons, but the intuition of a pass-type point guard. If Lu Yusheng was in that situation, he would definitely pass the ball like that.

I have to say that Zen master's move is really wonderful. Lu Yusheng has been thinking about it for a long time and has not come up with a solution. For Zen master, it is almost effortless.

Lu Yusheng looked back at Zen Master again, this old guy really didn't have a reputation for nothing.

But he also really doesn't like him.

But this game is indeed basically over.

When Jerry Sloan's last tactic was destroyed, he knew that the game was over, so Mr. Sloan didn't even call a timeout.

Simply let Di Brown have a good time on the court.

"Oh, it really is over. With a whistle, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Utah Jazz at their home stadium, 104:96, at the Staples Center!
While the Jazz suffered their first loss of the season, the Los Angeles Lakers also ushered in their six-game winning streak in the new season, which is their best start to the season since 2000.

It seems that this year's Lakers team is indeed worth looking forward to. "

McLean said, "We saw on the court, the players from both sides greeted each other friendly, and the coaches of both sides, Phil Jackson and Jerry Sloan, this pair of old rivals and two of my favorite coaches, they also came together to greet each other. gone."

"The reason why this game is wonderful is not only the performance of the players on both sides, but also the game between the two great coaches. It is simply too enjoyable!"

On the court, Phil Jackson and Jerry Sloan shook hands and greeted each other.

"Sorry, old man, I still won today."

"Oh, you old bastard," said Jerry Sloan, "you're lucky."

"No, I don't think so, Jerry, I don't think I won the game by luck."

"When I say you're lucky, I mean you were able to draft a pick-and-roll point guard this year," Jerry Sloan said.

"That's also because I teach well."

"Come on, you can't pick and roll at all."

The Zen master smiled, "What? Envy? Would you like to trade Delong with me? Are you willing?"

Sloan was taken aback, then smiled, "Fuck you, Deron is my child."

"Take care of yourself."

"You too, old man."

The two sides patted each other's shoulders friendly and turned to say goodbye.

After turning around, Coach Sloan's face was full of disappointment, because the moment Zen Master said that he would exchange Delong for Lu Yusheng, he was really moved.

It's been a long time since he's seen a rookie with this level of talent in the pick-and-roll.

Lu Yusheng could be said to be the point guard he dreamed of, and that kind of talent in tactics was beyond the reach of Delong.

But think about it, if there is such a deal, he will probably choose to keep Deron.

After all, like he said.

Deron is his child.

Coach Sloan thought of this, and looked at the crowd, looking for Deron's figure.

He wanted to sit down with him and have a good talk.

However, he saw that kid Delong walked straight towards Lu Yusheng!
This bastard is going to fight again!
