I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 325 Very 4+1 (fifth update)

Can Min Congda be unhappy? The tactical system set by Cricket Cole is not easily broken by me!

The Clippers' offense seems to be extremely smooth now, but any tactics or techniques are based on one foundation: how much defensive intensity you can withstand.

This is true for teams and individuals.

Two players, who can make the same technical moves without defense, have the same shooting percentage.

Once facing the defense, one starts to deform his movements, while the other is still natural and smooth, then there is a big difference in the abilities of these two people.

To put it bluntly, basketball skills and tactics are those. Professional players have practiced since they were young, and they will kill layer by layer.

It's just that the NBA is the highest level of confrontation, and you can show your skills and tactics here is the embodiment of your ability.

The same is true for team tactics. The team as a whole can theoretically play various techniques and tactics.

You let the Grizzlies play tactics without defense, and he can give you a show.

But when it comes to defense, depending on the player's ability and the coach's training ability, there will be a gap in the level of different teams.

The Clippers obviously have very strong players and good coaching skills, but there are two problems. One is that the players are still too young and inexperienced, and their personal abilities have not yet reached their peak.

The second is that the coach has not trained enough and the team has not run in well enough, so when facing a higher intensity defense, their tactics cannot be used.

Didn't the Grizzlies know the intensity in the first half?Didn't know the strength until the second half?
No, the problem with the Grizzlies is that in the first half they wanted to increase their strength, but the direction of their strength was wrong.

It's like you want to push a car forward, but its wheels are horizontal, so you can see if you can push it.

If you want to push, you have to use force in the other direction, or adjust the direction of the wheels.

Min Congda taught the Grizzlies to use force in another direction and put the focus of defense on Tony Allen instead of Jordan.

Hollins, of course, wanted Jordan to be the backbone of the team's defense, covering a wide area from the paint to the paint.

Little Jordan may have such a talent, but now his ability is not enough to support him to do so, he can't do it.

At least, when facing the Clippers, he can't do it, because Randolph can't beat him.

Min Congda realized this and thought it would be good if Jordan could do a good job of protecting the basket.

Keep an acre of three-point field under the basket and control the rebounds in the backcourt. Your task has been completed.

Don't even think about the online mopping up, and don't even think about Griffin, who can you get with your short arms?
Like Randolph and Gasol, retreat with peace of mind, guard the three-second zone, don't give easy-balls to the basket, and don't send offensive rebounds easily.

The real eye of the defense is Tony Allen, let him be a mad dog, to bite every Clippers player he can.

Let the Clippers slow down the transfer of the ball, and the ball must pause wherever it goes on the outside.

Because the ball holder has to face Tony Allen, if you don't protect the ball without stopping, you will be intercepted if you play the ball rashly.

As a result, the overall strength of the Grizzlies has increased, because the team has found a direction to exert force.

Griffin and Jordan didn't have to delay any more, resulting in being unable to return and being opened the back door.

The Grizzlies can use the line delay routine against other teams, especially against teams with a lot of pick-and-rolls.

It's not good to defend against the Clippers. There are too many backdoors brought by passing and cutting. You can't defend against it.

Min Congda was very accurate. He wanted to remind some teams in the previous game.

It's a pity that Min Congda of most teams can't find anyone to remind him. Can the human coach listen to you?
The Grizzlies are different. Chris Wallace and Min Congda have a good relationship. The key is that Min Congda speaks, and Wallace really listens.

At the end of the third quarter, the Clippers have already encountered problems. The young people are inexperienced and a little confused by the defense.

The Grizzlies are a team whose defense boosts morale. The better the defense, the higher the morale.

The FedEx Arena has fallen into a crazy atmosphere, and it's time to test the Clippers' ability to withstand pressure.

Before the start of the fourth quarter, Dunleavy drew tactics for the players, asking the players to bear the pressure and find confidence.

At this time, Dunleavy still used Harden, George, and Curry to form the backcourt as usual, and Randolph and Gasol Jr. formed the frontcourt.

This is the team's most talented lineup. If they can't play at the critical moment, replace George with Baron Davis and play three guards.

The three guards were also the Clippers' classic point-chasing lineup last season, and everyone is familiar with it.

Steve Kerr put forward a different opinion at this time.

He said: "Mike, I think the lineup can make some adjustments, don't play double insides anymore."

Dunleavy has always valued Cole's opinion, and said, "Then who do you want to use?"

Cole looked at the bench, thought for a while, and said, "Go to Nick Young and replace Zach with him."

"Use Nick Young? What about defense?"

"Mark is still facing off against Griffin, Jordan just let him go, just let Nick Young push him out of the three-second zone!"

Dunleavy hesitated for a few seconds before deciding to agree with Cole.

Cole always has some whimsical ideas on the spot, probably learned from Phil Jackson.

The difference between a top coach and an ordinary coach is whether he can make good use of every card in his hand.

Some coaches can lead the team to achieve very good results, but the team's 15-man roster, he can only use seven or eight people.

The rest of the people at the end of the bench, in their view, are just making up for the number, just supporting the main force to let the main force rest, or use it for garbage time.

And the top coach will let every player on the bench play their role, not just go through the motions.

In normal training, Cole was deeply impressed by Nick Young's three-pointers. This young man with a bright smile on his face is very imaginative in playing -- of course, mainly because of his shooting imagination, and he dares to shoot from any position.

Such a player can't get much play under Dunleavy, but Cole thinks it can be used.

In the Clippers coaching staff, Cole is almost on an equal footing with Dunleavy, because Cole was not recruited by Dunleavy, but Mr. Smart's "love general".

Nick Young went into battle because of this, and the Clippers played a lineup of one big and four small.

When Min Congda saw the Clippers lineup, Nick Young was actually on it?

What is this?Min Congda faintly felt something was wrong.

"The fucking space is so open, for Tony Allen, you want him to run to death, right?"

Sure enough, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Clippers' offensive formation was completely opened.

Curry broke through with the help of a screen and passed the ball to Harden. Harden made another breakthrough. Allen has three heads and six arms, so it would be nice to be able to help defend two people.

Harden gave the ball to Nick Young in the bottom corner, he really couldn't care less, Nick Young hit a three-pointer!

This three-point hit blew the Clippers' horn in the last quarter.

The Grizzlies want to punish Nick Young on offense.

But Jordan doesn't have the ability to attack independently.

He's already had mismatches in the paint.

A teammate passed the ball to him, and Paul George cut the ball in his hand when he grabbed the lead.

Don't underestimate the strength of the NBA. It is not easy to get a ball in a simple position.

An omnipotent center in ordinary games, in the NBA, he can't get in the position or get the ball.

George made a steal, the Clippers counterattacked again, and Curry pushed forward to the trailing Gasol Jr.

Xiao Jia glanced at it and passed a long pass to Nick Young in the right corner. Nick Young caught the ball and made another three-pointer.

Again!

Two consecutive three-pointers at the beginning of the fourth quarter stunned the Clippers.

Min Congda was also bewildered.

"This... what kind of formation is this? Very 4+1?"
