Chapter 693 X Tang

"Dare! Why don't you dare! To deal with people like Kobe, you have to use such a special method!" Green was the first to stand up and support: "Although he is my idol on the court, but in the same arena, we can compete with him. It won't release water either!"

"Tell me, sir, how should I kill you!"

Green is so active, of course, there is an element of "repaying" Cole's "smart eyes and pearls", but he may have misunderstood it.

Cole's original intention was not just as stupid as "dead hands".

In today's league, the rules are completely biased towards offense. David Stern's decades of leadership have made the league more and more interesting to watch, so it is absolutely stupid to directly "dead hands".It is easy to be called a flagrant foul and then directly ejected.But is Cole's "Jordan Law" just talk?
No, it's not.

Since the league completely banned Hand-Checking, the overall rules have not changed. Unlike the Jordan era, a malicious foul was directly introduced in 1990, which abolished a large part of the Pistons' defensive firepower.Otherwise, hey, it's hard to say whether Michael Jordan can break through them and reach the summit.Because under rough treatment, the player's mind and body will indeed be greatly affected, and in the end it will directly extend to the player's competitive state.

But that era has passed, so what is the "Jordan Law" that Cole said?

is another aspect.

Mainly illegal defense, no, it should be called zone defense now.

This is his main homework.

Cole came to replace this game because he was prepared. He thought that the "Jordan Rule" invented by Chuck Daly was rough, fierce, and large-scale, but it was not.These are just a part, used to intimidate and deter Jordan.What is the true nature of the "Jordan Law"?Chuck Daly once said in his autobiography before his death that the essence of the "Jordan Law" is the 101 rules based on illegal defense.

The illegal defense mentioned here is the current zone defense, which is similar with minor differences.

Now I know why Michael Jordan is a staunch opponent of the legalization of zone defense, because he once suffered a big loss in this rule.In that era, no one played better and more slippery than the Pistons' "illegal defense".So even if Jordan is a continuous "super god", it will be difficult to pass that hurdle.Otherwise, do you really think that every ball is hand-to-hand, hugged and thrown down fiercely?over thinking.

That's just a specially edited part of so many games between Jordan and the Pistons, and a game lasts 48 minutes.

How many times did Jordan play "Bad Boys"?So obviously, if you look at the video, you will know that "illegal defense" is the key.It's not the so-called hand-to-hand combat.The latter one is just an embellishment, and it is only used occasionally. There may be a lot of them, but in dozens of games, it is only a drop in the ocean.

Rough and rough? Come.on~ That's just performance.

Do you really think that just relying on this, you can contain Michael Jordan, who was at his peak back then?
And where did this inspiration come from?It was the scene where Bird commanded the Green Shirts to encircle and suppress Jordan, which made Jordan, the young man with the strongest desire to score points, at a loss as to what to do.

However, there are not many people who can really make good use of this method. The sword also needs people who can use it to exert its power. If it is played half-way, it will only be full of flaws. It is better to be honest and man-to-man.Similarly, in the NBA Finals of the 2007-2008 season, the Celtics also used illegal defense, um, zone defense, which killed Kobe and the Lakers.

The iron-blooded defensive style is true, but the biggest truth is the super zone defense.

How many years have passed?In the past few years, why the Celtics have not been very strong in the regular season and their record is average, but they exploded in the playoffs, as if they had changed teams?The answer is still a change in defensive strategy.Consecutive zone defense in the regular season consumes too much physical energy and energy, and it is not worthwhile to win a game at such a high price. Moreover, the overall age of the Green Army is too old, and continuous zone defense will inevitably collapse in the second half of the regular season.The same goes for back to back.

So pretending to be dead in the regular season is the best way.

This is also the same for Popovich and the Spurs. If you watch the game carefully, you will definitely find that San Antonio’s regular season and playoffs are basically two different styles of play. From offense to defense, they are very different from the regular season. big discrepancy.

But not all teams can play this well. No, it should be said that there are not many teams that can use zone defense as a conventional weapon. In the entire history of the NBA, there are not many teams.Think it's a joke?First of all, we must figure out what is called a conventional weapon.The kind of occasional messing around because of the situation doesn't count at all.To regard zone defense as a conventional weapon, in the NBA, basically the following two points must be met: 1. The team has a defensive core. 2. The overall tacit understanding of the team requires high chemical reaction and strong execution.

These two points are the foundation of the foundation. If one is missing, you don't want to use zone defense as a conventional weapon.

Some people may ask, why?In international basketball games, and even in domestic basketball games, isn't zone defense widely used?Is the NBA not even as good as the former?If you often read some basketball reports, professional basketball reviews and newspapers and magazines, you will find that the level of complexity of NBA tactics is indeed not as good as that of international basketball.However, it is not that some unscrupulous media people say that "the ability is not enough", but that the objective conditions do not allow it.

What objective conditions?This objective condition is that the NBA has three seconds of defense, but FIBA ​​does not.

And once there are three seconds of defense, large areas of zone defense formations, large areas of classic zone defense moves, will be abolished and cannot be used at all.

This is not a joke. The famous "triple-double king" Russell Westbrook, just after the preseason of the 2016-2017 season, publicly said: The offensive and tactical level of European basketball is 10 times better than that of NBA.This is what he said when he lost to Real Madrid in overtime in the preseason. The time was October 10th, US time, and October 9th, Beijing time.

In 2 preseason games against Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the Thunder actually conceded an average of 115.5 points per game. No wonder Westbrook said so after the game.Of course, this is the basketball rule over there, so the Thunder are very uncomfortable.

But this also shows one point from the side, the real master of zone defense is not in the NBA, but in FIBA.

Of course, if they also defend for three seconds, then the immediate zone defense tactics will shrink and become difficult.

Just kidding, if they play the NBA rules, the U.S. national team does not know how many points they will have to abuse No. 2, that is, play the FIBA ​​rules to compete a little.It's a pity that the highest basketball hall is not FIBA, but the NBA, so in the end it depends on the effect of the NBA's zone defense.

The tactical literacy and complex tactical execution ability of American players have always been low. Their strengths are personal ability and heads-up. Basically, in their early 20s, don’t expect them to be strong in running tactics.Therefore, it is very difficult to play zone defense in the NBA, and objective conditions have much more resistance than FIBA.

Does that mean the NBA can't play zone defense anymore?wrong! The NBA has the NBA's zone defense method, as long as it can be mastered and mastered, it is not to mention the championship, and it can be expected to become a strong team immediately.For example, the Spurs, the Celtics some time ago, and the Dallas Mavericks in 2011 are all models of zone defense.However, in the past ten years or so, apart from them, no team has really played better than zone defense.Los Angeles Lakers?No, no, no, they have never been a zone defense team. They didn't have it before, and they don't have it now.

Because it is still the same sentence, the conditions for the NBA to become a team that truly grasps the essence of zone defense are too harsh.

Does this Warriors team have the potential?

Of course, otherwise Cole would not be so confident.

Using multiple people to deal with one person has always been Cole's coaching philosophy. His coaching ability is extremely powerful, and his debut is the peak, which is his type.The coaching style carries the coaching factors of two legendary masters, Phil Jackson and Popovich, and the most incredible thing is that he combined them into one.This is something that countless young coaches cannot do.

What do you mean?Talk slowly later.

So Cole himself often has a smile of "confident confidence" on his face, and often speaks "crazy words". This is not crazy, but he truly believes that when he comes, he is ready.There is a sentence that applies to Cole, which is very appropriate:
VENI.VIDI.VICI.

This is Latin, translated as, I come, I see, I conquer.

Therefore, when Cole came to coach, he didn't want to take the usual path. He felt that he had better prepare, ok, and the rest was victory and conquest.At present, he is the strongest "rookie coach", with a higher starting point than any legendary coach.Of course, maybe a few years later, he himself will be a member of the legendary coaches.

Cole looked at Green with a smile and said: "The 'dead hand' is only one aspect. The main function of this aspect is to deter, not to have the main effect. Before the malicious foul is released, the Pistons are also fouls if they do so. , it’s just that there is no specific name. Don’t think it’s wrong to use the ‘dead hand’, but don’t rely on it, understand?” Green nodded half-understanding, and Curry couldn’t help asking: “Then what exactly?” Do? There must be a way."

"Of course." Cole showed a smile full of "mysterious confidence", calmly took out the tactical board and said: "First, it is fine to drive Kobe to this area or let him go, because this is his relatively high shooting rate this season. Low shooting area. Second, this season, Kobe is not obsessed with pick-and-rolls. He believes too much in his personal ability. This is also a point that can be used. Do this later. On the one hand, let Kobe go in, and then Green, you are ready to defend at any time. If Kobe goes inside, then do it like this." Cole pushed the magnets on the tactical board in all directions, and then said: "Surround all sides, Note that the contraction must be decisive and fast, and treat him as a poisonous snake that has nowhere to go. And you are the cage, the cage that traps him."

"Thirdly, if Kobe changes his style of play and uses post-up, two players on the high-post post-up, low-post post-up inside players also join in, and three people to defend. Klay, your key task is to stand up, you don't need to follow Kobe's You don’t even need to take off early, you have to trust your teammates and your top defense is the key to success. As for the rest, let your teammates take care of it.”

"Fourth, if Kobe is stuck on the wing and wants the ball, he should defend around the front and don't be afraid of losing his position. You have to work harder for Drummond in the back and be ready to go up to defend. The Lakers don't have anyone who is particularly good at passing the ball outside. So it’s just a matter of jamming Kobe’s catch.”

"Fifth..." Cole grinned, patted Green on the shoulder and said, "This is also the most critical part of our 'Kobe Law'. Whether it can work or not, Drummond, you are the key."

"Me?" Green can't remember how long it has been since he was entrusted with such a heavy responsibility. It seems that after coming to the NBA, he is destined to be a bench, a blue-collar with no sense of presence.

"Yes, it's you." Cole said: "You have to swim back and forth, run back and forth between the inside and the wings, or even the three-point line, be ready to double-team and post defenses at any time, and occasionally command the whole team. Defensive movement and scheduling, otherwise our tactic will only be good-looking but useless."

Although Cole didn't say it clearly, the Warriors understood it. This is to make Green the core of the defense, but can he afford it?He's only 6'7".this……

David Lee sat on the side, picking his mouth in disdain, as if he was waiting for Cole and Green to make a fool of himself.

He didn't believe that a 6-foot-7 "little man" could become the defensive core of the Warriors.

Thought it was Ben Wallace?Or Dennis Rodman?Or Wes Unseld?What a joke!
It depends on you how you make a fool of yourself!idiot!

"Don't doubt yourself, young man, you are a high-achieving student from the University of Michigan. You won't forget the glorious tradition of the Michigan Five Tigers, right?" Cole asked with a smile. "Of course not, sir, I will definitely be able to finish it!" When he mentioned his university and the Michigan Five Tigers, Glynn Drummond immediately seemed to be a different person, and his whole face was full of pride .

Cole read it right. College life is of great significance to Green. This is the difference between four years of complete education and a half-way monk's sense of identity.

His style perfectly inherits the "Zen Master", and he can use the most appropriate words to motivate players, and at the same time...

Cole's arrangement is indeed due to Green, because to complete this large-scale double-team at any time, you must have a flexible and extremely fast inside line.Bogut is too bulky to take on this responsibility, and most importantly, Draymond Green, he has a calm defensive mind and a defensive sense, which is completely different from his style of play and appearance. .

And if you want to complete this set of "Kobe Rules", or even your own future "Death Five Small Lineup", the defensive core inside must have the ability of "commander".Even in Cole's view, this is more suitable for his tactical system and tactical philosophy than a pure basket-protecting defensive core.This inspiration and reference comes from the Mavericks in 2011. Looking at the Mavericks that year separately, there was no one with a strong defense, including their head star Dirk Nowitzki.But why can they finally break Zijin before and Miami after?Ended two possible new dynasties?Is it really just Dirk Nowitzki's crazy "super god"?All role players feeling hot?

Absolutely impossible!
Although Cole's "death five small lineup" is also a sports player and a small ball, he never thought that a team that has never been defensive can finally win the Larry O'Brien Cup.The Sun's offensive power was so strong that year, isn't it still smashed in front of the Spurs?Therefore, his "Death Five" must have defense, and it is a very strong defense.

But there is a problem with this, since it is "five small" and "five small", there must be a head disadvantage, otherwise it can only be called "one big and four small" or "two big and three small".How to make up for the lack of basket protection and the defensive shortcomings caused by lack of size?
Steve Kerr thought about it for a long time, but there was no good solution until the appearance of the Mavericks in 2011. Although the Mavericks had Chandler inside, Chandler was not a defensive core. He's just a defensive strong point.And the average blocks per game in that year was less than 1+, so you said that relying on him to cover the sky is a joke.Chandler has never been a person with a particularly high defensive IQ. Although he got a DPOY in the Knicks, he is known as "the most watery". It can be seen that his defensive energy is good, but not too exaggerated.

The real defensive core that year, no, it should be the defensive commander who is the defensive brain, Jason Kidd.

Without Kidd, look at this group of people who are still playing zone defense. After leaving Kidd, even Tyson Chandler who got DPOY, in what year will he be able to do a good job in zone defense like in 2011? .The joint defense has always been a whole, and the whole cannot be a headless chicken. People must stand up to be the leader and stand up to command.

Unfortunately, Kidd played this perfectly that year, so both the Lakers and the Heat became "horn ghosts", and the Dallas Mavericks won their first NBA championship trophy in NBA history.And this gave Cole the inspiration to completely open up his entire "two lines of Ren and Du".

Yes, the "five minors" have height disadvantages and basket protection problems, but they can make up for it by relying on high-quality zone defense.

However, for this candidate, the requirements are harsh. Not only must he have a strong defense, but he must also have a brain, have a big picture, and be able to command the entire team's defensive lineup and defensive methods.It is impossible for the coach to take care of every ball. Many changes on the court must be completed by the "commander" of the court.And Drummond Green is the "defensive commander" Cole is looking for.

He has all the potential to complete his "five small lineup".

So after seeing this, Cole chose to abandon David Lee without hesitation, even though he is still an All-Star player and still at his peak.

The two sides played again. The Lakers replaced Farmar and replaced Steve Blake. This is to gradually replace the starting lineup, and at the same time try to take care of everyone's physical strength.In the fourth quarter, it was basically Kobe's time. There was nothing to say. No. 24 of the Lakers took the ball and did it. He easily got rid of Klay Thompson and rushed into the inside of the Warriors.

Just as Kobe was about to make a move, suddenly, a large group of black shadows, as if waiting for a long time, pounced in all directions. It felt like an iron cage descending from the sky, which confused Kobe.As expected, Kobe missed the shot. Although he has entered "The.Zone", although he is now a super-peak black mamba, he can fight four against one, but he doesn't have much chance of winning.

This is an inevitable thing, maybe some can be scored, but the hit rate must be terrible.

Otherwise, it is time for the sport of basketball to revise its rules.

What Jordan didn't do, Kobe certainly couldn't do it either. In fact, outside players basically only enjoy the benefits of rule changes, and few can be modified to specifically target specific restrictions.This job is basically covered by the center and the inside.

Therefore, Chamberlain and his generation often say in the future that the NBA amended the rules to limit themselves, but outside players, on the contrary, are the big beneficiaries.

The Warriors broke fast, and under Green's high-quality pick-and-roll, Curry made a three-pointer, swiped~, and the Warriors overtook the score in the blink of an eye.

And, this is just the beginning.

Kerr watched Lane 24 from the sidelines.

However, there is still an X factor behind it, which is beyond Cole's expectations.

This game is far from easy to tell the winner.

One of the best regular seasons in the 2013-2014 season, not just bragging.
