Chapter 94 Defensive Show
Although Russell Westbrook averaged a triple-double per game and everyone in Stephen Curry's Warriors team is a passer, they have integrated attack and passing. The two positions are so clearly distinguished, but everyone is all-around, and they are all multifunctional talents. Therefore, a classical defender with average offensive ability like Andre Miller will definitely not be able to keep up with the trend in ten years. of.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Iverson. This guy was playing classical basketball in his era. Everyone thinks that a small man should organize the pass, support more and attack less, but Iverson is completely different. His average There are not many assists, but he is an out-and-out scorer, a shooting guard, but his height is much shorter than ordinary shooting guards. Here I have to praise Larry Brown, this stubborn old man is not Knowing which muscle is wrong, he even agreed to change Iverson to play shooting guard for the first time, which pushed AI to his personal peak. Therefore, there is no right or wrong in the style of basketball that everyone plays, it just depends on personal opinion. The era in which we live and the characteristics of individual abilities are different.

Of course, I also want to praise Channing's head coach Cheeks. This guy was in the coaching staff of the Philadelphia 76ers when AI was at its peak, serving as Larry Brown's assistant, and he was also improving Larry Brown and Iverson. It has to be said that Cheeks is still a very good coach, and Channing flattered the head coach a little in his heart.

Paul held the ball at the top of the arc to observe the defense, and at the same time commanded his teammates to run. Channing suddenly discovered that he was facing a player he had never encountered before.

Previously, Bosh and James, although they had different personal offensive abilities, were all single-handed players with the ball. Channing's defensive focus was on the opponent's attacking action, and this time the Hornets' small forward Pejasto Djakovic is a guy with average singles ability, who is good at running empty-handed to catch the ball and shoot three-pointers. Just like Ray Allen and Korver, facing such opponents, Channing quickly adjusted his defensive strategy and adopted The defensive policy of following closely is like a piece of dog skin plaster. No matter how Peja moves, Channing always follows closely.

"Just kidding, how dare a top three-pointer like Peja let him open to catch the ball?" Although Chan Ning was facing Peja for the first time, he had a good understanding of Peja's playing style and characteristics. This is often the way to break up. Moreover, in the 76ers' training game, Channing did not defend Korver less, so he is relatively experienced.

"Peja interspersed and ran back and forth, Channing's defensive steps were very good, and he didn't give the opponent any open opportunities."

"Yes, a pitcher like this, as long as he can prevent him from catching the ball, there is no threat. Channing's defense is very good."

Yoga and Ke Fan sang together and boasted to Chan Ning. It could be seen that Chan Ning did not suffer from footwork and speed in the defensive third position, but Peja appeared to be very slow.

Peja tried several times, but finally gave up running, because he knew that in the first tentative attack, he did not run out of this point, and Paul was going to start another point.

Sure enough, Paul started to move, Peja's three-point tactic was blocked, the Hornets quickly launched the second tactic, David West came up to cover Paul, Paul broke through, and the queen bee's attack attracted everyone's attention Eyes, David West quietly opened at the moment.

Another pick and roll!Chan Ning suddenly remembered that Paul is also a pick-and-roll master. After the pick-and-roll, Paul can break through for a layup, pull up the mid-range shot, pull out to make a small hit, and can even divide the ball and assist. By Paul's side, there is never a lack of cooperation with him. The big men who play the pick-and-roll, whether it is David West and Tyson Chandler in the Hornets now, or Griffin and Jordan who later came to the Clippers to build a city of lobs, or switch to the Rockets After the cake king Capela, Paul was able to play wonderful pick-and-roll cooperation with many big men, achieving the effect of 1+1>2.

The 76ers power forward Reggie Evans, who was originally defending David West, was caught in a dilemma at the moment. He didn't like to defend out, not to mention that after he went out, no one restricted Paul inside, and the head coach Cheek Steve also specifically said that Evans and Dalembert are allowed to guard the penalty area, so Evans has no intention of going out to make up for David West with this ball.

How shrewd Paul is, he saw through the defense at once. Before Miller and Evans formed a pinch, Paul gave the ball to David West, who was removed. David West made a mid-range shot and made a hit.

"Beautiful pick-and-roll cooperation, David West made a mid-range shot, and Paul added 1 assist."

Reggie Evans glanced at the coaching staff, a little worried that he would be scolded. After all, in this defense, he had no intention of throwing out to defend against David West's shot.

But Coach Cheeks waved his hand, indicating that Evans is fine, and quickly participated in the offense.

Coach Cheeks understands very well that the 76ers are far from a strong team. There are only so many people, and everyone's strength is average. You can't expect to defend against any opponent. The current revised Philadelphia defensive tactics are Do a good job of the individual defense that Philadelphia is best at, and then try to stay inside to protect the rebounds, and leave the outside to Chen Ning. If the opponent's big man can pull out the long-range shot, then he will be resigned to his fate. After all, it is impossible to cover everything.

Evans also understood what Cheeks asked of him, nodded, and was ready to focus on the rebound.

The 76ers attacked. After a simple pick-and-roll, everyone opened up and cleared one side. Iguodala singled out the Hornets shooting guard Maurice Peterson with the ball. Peterson's defense was mediocre, and Iguodala He is a small forward, his height and body are completely overwhelmed, he puts his back on the top, squeezes enough space, and Iguodala hits a jumper with ease.

"The boss of the 76ers, Iguodala, singled out and hit a two-pointer, and he returned the color."

Paul took the baseline serve and continued to advance, and David West still came to pick and roll.

"Ma Dan, do you still want to play like this?"

Reggie Evans wanted to cry, but his opponent had been playing one or four pick-and-rolls, obviously bullying him for his slow legs, catching his weaknesses and beating him to death.

David West received the ball, and there was no one in front of him. He was about to repeat his tricks, pulled up to make a mid-range shot, and vaguely felt a strong murderous aura coming from the side, so he quickly stopped his movements and protected the ball.

After a long time in the NBA, he often has a very effective sixth sense. David West can always sensitively perceive the threat of eating caps in advance.

Sure enough, it was the opponent's small forward Channing.

This guy, I don't know when he came from the bottom corner.

"It's so dangerous, I was almost blocked."
